  • The Transformational Invitation in Crisis

    Beth Clayton (your host) is a soul-based life coach who loves to help open-hearted people break free from their own self-sabotage, outdated thought patterns, and past pain so they can deepen their relationship with their own soul's intuition, speak their truth courageously and fulfill their most authentic desires. She knows that creating in our external world is all about going deeper into our internal world and finding our own liberation. She is the creator of multiple group programs, retreats, and transformational workshops, leading hundreds of truth-seekers toward finding freedom and ease in their relationship with themselves, empowerment in their lives and the ability to take powerful and consistent action toward their dreams.

    In this session, we will dive into:

    • What has been going on in Beth's world and why she waited so long to start Season 3 (hint hint...it has a little something to do with global pandemic).
    • What "thin space" moments and "liminal periods", how we are experiencing them collectively right now, and what they have to offer us.
    • The similarities between the moment we are in and the contractions of child labor.
    • Why the most courageous and spiritual work we can do is aligning our actions with our humanity.
    • The importance of initiation moments in our own growth.
    • How & where self-sabotage may be popping up right now.
    • The crucial importance of seeing our shadows rise to the surface without judging ourselves.
    • How shame can prevent us from seeing the growth opportunities in front of us.
    • The mistake in believing we are "living life" and that we can "control" what happens in our lives.
    • How this moment in time can lead to greater love, joy, and meaning in our lives if we allow it to transform our perspective.

  • What if my truth hurts people?

    Beth Clayton (your host) is a soul-based life and health coach and loves to help open-hearted people break free from their own self-sabotage, outdated thought patterns, and past pain so they can deepen their relationship with their own soul's intuition, speak their truth courageously and fulfill their most authentic desires. She is the creator of multiple group programs, retreats, and transformational workshops, leading hundreds of truth-seekers toward finding freedom and ease in their relationship with food, their bodies, their lives and ultimately, themselves.

    In this episode, Beth dives into: ● Why the truths we have not been speaking or voicing are the lighthouse in our liberation and a pathway back to our truest selves. ● How shame prevents us from living in our full truth and has us shrinking ourselves into the boxes we think others will accept. ● Our biggest fears about honoring our truth. ● The nature of truth and why it will find a way to be told, even if indirectly. ● What to do when you are super resistant to speak your truth. ● How our values can serve as our north star when we are afraid of hurting other people. ● How your truth liberates the people around you, and why honoring what is in your highest good is automatically in service of someone else's highest good.

  • Tricia Barker--Angels in the OR & What Death Can Teach Us About Living Fiercely

    Tricia Barker experienced a profound near-death experience during her senior year of college at the University of Austin after getting into a car wreck and going into surgery. At the time, Tricia did not consider herself a religious or spiritual person in the least, but everything changed that day. Her near-death experience story has been featured on I Survived: Beyond and Back, National Geographic Magazine, Simple Grace Magazine, Women's World Magazine, and The Doctor Oz Show. Years after her Near-Death Experience, Tricia moved to South Korea to teach and experienced deep sexual trauma when she was brutally raped, and then dismissed by law enforcement. In her memoir, she dives deep into how her insights into life after death were instrumental in her ability to heal her heart and her mind, and how the courage humans must exhibit to truly live in our bodies is incredibly powerful. She wrote all about it in her memoir, Angelsin the OR: What Dying Taught Me About Healing, Survival, and Transformation. Tricia also interviews healers and NDE-ers on her YouTube Channel, "Be the Light of Your Own Healing."

    In this episode, we dive into: ● The details of Tricia's NDE, including the verifiable details that would have been impossible to know while she was unconscious in surgery. ● The mission Tricia received while in her NDE that defied her current path. ● The beings of light or "angels" that Tricia met in the OR and what they communicated to her. ● The experience of unconditional love, and why it makes her emotional to talk about even to this day. ● The intuitive and energetic "gifts" that she returned with that sometimes she wished she didn't have. ● The gifts Tricia returned with and the healing she found in supporting her father as he passed away. ● How she used her insight into life beyond the physical to help heal herself from sexual trauma that occurred years later. ● The paradox found in understanding oneself as a spiritual being but still being in the sometimes incredibly painful and difficult human experience. ● What living fiercely means to someone who has experienced death.

  • Sharon Prentice: The Transcendent Love in Grief, Death, and Our Last Moments

    Soon after completing her graduate studies in psychology, Dr. Sharon Prentice found the world of secular psychology lacking-her patients needed "something more". So, she set out to investigate and explore alternative methods in the field of mental health that would incorporate that "something special" she believed existed in each and every individual soul. Her journey would take her through the great religions of the world as well as to a discovery of ancient, time-proven alternatives to modern therapeutic models of counseling. She is the author of the bestselling book "Becoming Starlight: A Shared Death Journey from Darkness to Light" which attempts to answer the question "Is this all there is?" She now primarily works with terminally ill patients and their families to help them transition with more love, truth, and surrender.
