With this conversation, take your first step towards your soul and the immense power it offers. 

Soul advisor, Leah Brathwaite uses spirituality to help people find a sense of calm and power within themselves even as they continue to be a part of this very chaotic, confusing, and frustrating world. We talk about how Leah got onto the path of spirituality and the pain and isolation that she had to undergo to break away from old structures and walk this path that offered her no certainty. We talk about Kundalini, why it was kept a secret for so long and how massively powerful and transformational it can be. Leah also walks us through a simple exercise that can help you tap into your intuition and connect to your soul along with other practical tools that can help you better manage the moments of stress and overwhelm that we experience almost constantly.

Leah Brathwaite is an author, Soul Advisor, kundalini instructor and Human Design guide. She is the founder and CEO of Live Free Lifestyle Inc, a personal and spiritual development and lifestyle brand that helps high achievers connect with and live upto their full potential and purpose. After emancipating from nearly three decades of a repressive religious indoctrination, navigating disability, depression and divorce and starting her life over from scratch at 30, Leah learned valuable tools, lessons and practices to heal, get unstuck and create a life of freedom, fulfilment and joy. She teaches her transformative methods and perspectives through her writing, courses and consulting. Combining spirituality, practical psychology and metaphysics in her work, she creates unique opportunities for others to tap into the deepest truth of their souls and find their own answers to life’s big questions.

One of the best conversations I have had on the show. Kute Blackson shifted my perspective in some very important ways and I'm hoping that he will do the same way for you. Kute and I talked about being compassionate to others even when they are being unkind, responding with love and understanding when someone we love, lets us down. We learn about the spirituality of real love, what relationships are truly meant for and how to recognise when they’re serving their purpose and when to walk away. How to manifest big and find surrender so we can seek out what is truly meant for us and how to do all that with our ego constantly pulling us towards material attachments.

Kute Blackson is a beloved inspirational speaker and transformational teacher.  He is author of the national bestselling book You.Are.The.One. and The Magic of Surrender. He is widely considered the next generation leader in the field of personal development and has been featured on Larry King Now, Fox and Friends, Dr. Drew, Inc magazine calls him ‘The Mindfulness Guru Billionaires Go To For Advice’. 

For over 20 years, Kute Blackson has been inspiring audiences around the world. From the first time he spoke in front of 3000 people at age 8, to speaking in over 300 venues by age 18, to helping organizations develop authentic leadership and achieving extraordinary performance over the last decade.

He recently received the 2019 Walden Award in the New Thought Wisdom category in which Unity Organization honours, once a year, socially conscious leaders who are making the world a better place.

In the latest episode, thanks to our guest expert, Dr. Patrick McNamara, we get to learn more about our brain's capabilities and how we can channel them to live more creative, productive, and healthy lives.

Despite all the available information and resources on the subject, the human brain continues to be a mystery. Within its complex structure reside not only our thoughts and memories, but also the key to unlocking the potential of our true selves. We uncover some of those secrets in this episode.

The conversation is not limited to our brain’s functioning, we also discuss the impact spiritual experiences can have on our brain and personality and how psychedelics can help us amplify our creativity and cognitive abilities. To tune in, use the link in bio. 

Dr. McNamara is a  distinguished Professor of Psychology at Northcentral University. He also holds positions with the departments of Neurology at the University of Minnesota and Boston University School of Medicine. He is a founding editor of Religion, Brain & Behaviour, the flagship journal for the emerging field of neuroscience of religion. He is also a co-founder of the Institute for the Biocultural Study of Religion, which is a non-profit research institute dedicated to the study of the neurologic and evolutionary correlates of religious beliefs, behaviours, and practices. Dr. McNamara is also the editor of Where God and Science Meet and Science and World’s Religions, and the author of The Neuroscience of Religious Experience and numerous other publications on the neurology and psychology of religion.

Building a business on the strength of your passion, or entrepreneurship of any kind really, is a path of such deep emotional investment and so profoundly challenging that those who travel this path can never have enough guidance. In this episode, I bring you a little more of that guidance with Emily Williams sharing a lot of her learnings and experiences so we can grow through what she has gone through 😉

Emily Williams is a success coach, author, podcast host and CEO who, at one point, couldn’t get a job at Starbucks. After experiencing a quarter-life crisis, she moved from Ohio to London (where she knew no one!) and in 2014 launched her company, I Heart My Life. She made $442 in her first month—and then went on to hit six figures in six months, before her 30th birthday. She grew her business into seven figures in under 18 months.

We’re going to learn all about that very interesting journey, the mindset that goes into becoming a successful entrepreneur, getting good at marketing, and dealing with failures and rejections along the way. 

Today, Emily works with ambitious, heartcentered women from all over the world. She helps them bust through the obstacles that hold their dreams and goals hostage so they can free themselves to create a life that's better than their dreams through the company's membership, courses and retreats.

In our life today, there's always too much going on. We are constantly playing catch up with life and that of course, leaves us feeling overwhelmed, so overwhelmed that we forget to revel in life, appreciate the good that it offers, and relish the challenges it throws our way. In this episode, we discuss what we can do to not feel so overwhelmed all the time. 

We begin by understanding where the overwhelm comes from, how it creates a feeling of isolation, and what we can do to better manage our time and self.

Astrology is often used as a tool for self-reflection and personal growth. Some people believe that by studying their birth chart, which is a map of the positions of celestial bodies at the time of their birth, they can gain a deeper understanding of their strengths, weaknesses, and potential challenges. This understanding can then help guide their choices and decision-making process. The episode will help you understand just how powerful a tool astrology can be and how it can lead you to people and places that can completely transform your life, amplify the impact you make in the world, and manifest a life that's better than your best dreams. 

This episode shares my conversation with Natalie Walstein, a Career Astrologer at Soulshine Astrology. Natalie Walstein blends ancient astrological wisdom with modern, down-to-earth guidance to help creative souls and spiritual seekers discover their cosmic calling and align their life + career with the cosmos.

We talk about how we can hone our intuition through astrology, some helpful rituals to manifest what we desire, how you can get guidance from your birth chart, how to recognise when you’re walking the right path and more.
