"Empty your mind, be formless. Shapeless, like water. If you put water into a cup, it becomes the cup. You put water into a bottle and it becomes the bottle. You put it in a teapot it becomes the teapot. Now, water can flow or it can crash. Be water, my friend."
Bruce Lee

Bruce Lee's powerful words, like the proverbial "whisper" have morphed over the years to be a slightly bastardised but more succinct phrase of "Be Like Water, My Friend" which is voiced, often, in the Quanti-household. 

Water, life giving, life saving, immersive, corrective and restorative, features a great deal in QuantiMama Jodi and QuantiPapa McGill's lives and is often credited as being one of their life's natural anxiolytics. 

How does water feature in your world? 
Do you feel the nurturing and rebalancing effects? 
What are the ways you integrate  connection with nature? 

From the philosophical parallels of "being like water" to the practicalities of connecting with water, join Jodi and McGill for this chat (that initially identified as Episode 12 but, like water, flowed into Episode 13) on ways their connection with water has impacted their daily living, life-changing moments and the 'ripple' effect of these big and small experiences.

In the Faark The Shoulds school, Alchemising Education is one of the core subjects; a non-negotiable, if you will. 
Deep gratitude for the perspective afforded by the last three years of farkery, which revealed plain and simple, for many parents,  the actual truth of our kids real education experience; Wizard Oz's curtain reveal. 
A homogenised, streamlined, one-size-fits-most approach to shaping kids into like-minded thinkers, with the most genuine of intentions but resulting in a product that ultimately has left the "clients" quietly dissatisfied with the execution. 
Join QuantiMama Jodi and Curious Quinn, two middle class, tow-the-line kinda gals who had their respective rude awakening to the education system being not quite what it's cracked up to be and pulled the ultimate middle class renegade move by reexamining and respectively reimagining their kids' education models. 
They're not here to preach; just spark curiosity and questioning in the disquiet that gently accompanies parents these days: can we do better? what's needed? am i equipped to change this? ... all the while knowing, our kids are worth it!!

If ever there was a world of "shoulds" just waiting to be realised, it is giving birth in a western system.
 You 'should' birth at this facility and you 'should' have this practitioner and, whilst pregnant, you 'should' eat this food and 'should' do these exercises and 'should' do this birthing course (although, we CAN highly recommend QuantiMama's High Vibe Birth course for your ultimate birth preparation 😉) and the list of shoulds goes on and on...
 After four births, QuantiMama Jodi and QuantiPapa McGill say "Well, Fark That!!"
 
 Birth, likely to be one of your life's most defining moments, is too often casually reduced to something that has to be done or worse, survived, when, in reality, it can be the most wondrous, magical, otherworldly, extraordinary and most definitely, defining experiences of our entire lives.
 
 Jodi and McGill reflect on their respective 'now and then' attitudes to birth; the wisdom of experience with their four births, particularly McGill's as the birthing father and ultimately their passion that is infused throughout their High Vibe Birth course; a birth education programme that stretches beyond simple birth education and is anchored in strengthening primal bonds between the self, couple and babe in utero.
 
 Let this conversation spark wonder, reassurance, reminiscence or healing, no matter where you find yourself in your life's journey right now because as a collective community, we must counterbalance the robotised industrial regard of birth to reconnect it with nature's principles, witnessing these everyday miracles with breath-taking awe.

Cleaning your camera lens:

Our perceptions of our experience and the world around us undoubtedly shapes our reality. 

So how do we get the best out of the quagmire that is life and take a quantum leap forward into a high vibe state?

Listen as Jodes and McGill examine how they view and therefore, perceive their world, drawing on their emergency services backgrounds and general high vibe attitudes. Then, listen as Jodes examines McGill's 'comprehensive' ability (her camera lens) to make her feel like a psych patient (her camera lens too!!) when all she wants is a rant and nurtering conversation.

What does a connected long-term relationship look like?
What are the noticeable elements of sustained, genuine affection after umpteen years of marriage.
QuantiMama Jodi and QuantiPapa McGill open up about the untold and often uncelebrated delights of long-term relationships, in a conversation that started out as Relationship Resus, softened into Making Marriages Magical and finally settled into Continuing Connection.
Explore how you can tweak your relationship and get back to that honeymoon stage.
Re-member that "all in" time and pure obsession with one other; that passion is still there, so join the conversation as Jodi & McGill cut through the crap that is holding you back from your beloved and spark some little ideas to help along the way. It's not all about a mind blowing 'sesh' (that helps, for sure) but true connection, anchored in kindness, curiosity and authenticity will take care of that and so, so, soooo much more!

Men Listeners: Love McGill's vibe and want some further connection and motivation for personal change? Get in touch with McGill via quantimama.com to learn about opportunities to work with him. Group and individual mentoring available.

Watch Jodi squirm as McGill holds her to Radical Self Responsibility. 
Confront your own blocks and throw off the shackles of victimhood. Own your choices and take control of yourself.

Sounds easy, right? 

But how to pull the proverbial trigger on finding peace, letting go, manning up and speaking out - however that radical self responsibility needs to show up. 

Join QuantiMama's Jodi and QuantiPapa's McGill for this lively, enlightening, enlivening and momentarily squirmy conversation about being self-responsible.
