  • #12 The Safe Space Between Us - Riding Together or Not At All

    Today’s revelation is in seeing more clearly the relationship between the internal Drama Triangle our parts get hooked by and how that can stir up Drama Triangle energy with others. Can we avoid getting hooked into our own persecutor/victim/rescuer mentality while still looking to connect? Does it help to move toward or away from the pain in ourselves and each other? We also spend time looking at our window of tolerance, Somatic Experiencing, and co-regulation.

    This episode begins with a six minute sense meditation including tuning into the quality of experience we want to have.

  • #11 Outside the Garden, Out in Space

    Today we’re on the edge of that lush Jungle of Consciousness we love so much. We’re looking in, asking “What puts us outside of deep connection? How do we get back in?” But before we find our way back Jess goes way waaay out, giving us an opportunity to look into the generative nature of groundlessness and the myth of dissociation as it relates to capitalism and productivity.

  • #10 The Magical Field of Play

    What does it mean to be a multidimensional, experiential storyteller? How do our stories become static or frozen? Frank shares what Leonardo DaVinci’s curiosity did for him during his brain tumor experience and Jess knows that what feels like play points toward healing and sometimes the particularity of what each of us is here to do. Along the way there are little explorations of Polyvagal Theory, Somatic Experiencing, and Synesthesia. All this after a five minute meditation.

  • #8 What We Believe About Trauma

    When Jess shows up in a more triggered and critical internal space, the subject of trauma becomes our focus… trauma as unprocessed, impacted experience, trauma as a sacred temple of unveiling our true Self. Also, we dip into Frank’s perspective that all conflict is internal conflict. All that after beginning with a 5 minute meditation connecting with your inner oracle!

  • #7 Please Do Not Eat the Menu

    Have you ever thought about the difference between verbalizing an experience and having an experience?  Well, it turns out you can’t eat the menu. After 4 minutes of settling in, we get an update on Mr. Shoes’ health which leads us into an expansive exploration of the wisdom found when viewing our lives from the “room of our death.”

  • #6 Grow Slow or with Flow

    When Frank comes into the podcast space “weighed down” by his beloved dog, Mr. Shoes, having health issues, a conversation ensues about mortality. Frank sees his practice of compassionate presence bearing fruit during challenging times, while Jess shares the struggle of parts believing in some sense of personal control. Frank shares his belief that everything happens as it’s supposed to, and they discuss how these perspectives affect personal growth.

  • #5 Seeing What Is & Being Seen

  • #4 Shoulds & Wants

    Can we hear our authentic desires? How do we trust that spark of excitement sourced in our body’s experience of the present moment? After a 4 minute meditation, today we question the “Shoulds” coming from our social conditioning and look more closely at our “Wants”.
