What if reality is far more fluid than we’ve been taught to believe?

In this episode of Gateways to Awakening, I sit down with Cynthia Sue Larson, bestselling author of Reality Shifts, Quantum Jumps, The Mandela Effect and Its Society, and High Energy Money.

Cynthia has a background in physics from UC Berkeley and has spent decades exploring consciousness, reality shifts, synchronicities, quantum phenomena, and what happens when our experience of reality doesn’t quite match what we thought was possible. 

She wrote the book about the Mandela Effect, which Cynthia describes as “collective alternate memory,” and why different people can seemingly remember the same events, words, places, or cultural moments differently.

 “We are the dreamer. We are in the dream.” - Cynthia Sue Larson 

We begin by exploring what Cynthia calls reality shifts, those strange moments when something appears, disappears, changes, or seems to exist differently than we remember, and her belief that consciousness plays a fundamental role in how we experience the physical world.
Throughout the episode, we explore:
- What reality shifts are and how to begin noticing them
- Whether consciousness can influence our experience of reality
- Quantum jumping and moving between possible timelines
- Why our internal state and perspective matter
- The Mandela Effect and collective alternate memories
- Whether the past, present, and future are as fixed as we assume
- Individual versus collective realities
- Free will, destiny, and conscious agency
- Why Cynthia asks herself every day: “How good can it get?”

Dear Friends, 

In this episode of Gateways to Awakening, I sit down with Gold Porter, founder and spokesperson for Artifact Guardians, and Marza Flowers, a Stanford scholar of archaeoacoustics and Egyptian sound consciousness, registered nurse, clinical herbalist, medicine woman, and longtime student of ancient civilizations and Indigenous medicine ways.

Raised in Indigenous medicine ways, she carries ceremonial teachings connected to the sacred Door of the Ant and works across Egyptian temple studies, vibrational medicine, cymatics, plant medicine, and shamanic traditions.
We explore ancient crystalline artifacts and skulls emerging from Mexico and Gold and Marza's experiences of them as objects carrying consciousness or information.

Rather than approaching these artifacts through ownership, they describe their work through the lens of guardianship and relationship. Marza shares her perspective on ancient Egyptian sound technology, sacred architecture, portals, and the importance of approaching sacred sites with discernment and proper training.

We also explore her views on timelines, the Mandela Effect and CERN, and why she believes humanity is being asked to evolve our consciousness alongside our rapidly accelerating technology.

In this episode, we explore:
- Ancient crystalline artifacts and what it means to become their “guardian”
- Crystal skulls, consciousness and the possibility of information held within matter
- Egyptian sound consciousness and sacred architecture
- Ancient civilizations, portals and the importance of discernment
- Marza's perspective on CERN, the Mandela Effect and overlapping timelines
- Indigenous knowledge and our relationship with the Earth
- Ancient intelligence versus artificial intelligence
- Why our humanity must evolve alongside our technology
- Prayer, heart coherence and unified consciousness

“Everything for me is that word home—going inward and finding your inner compass.” — Gold
“The thing that calibrates our humanity is our heart.” — Marza

Best, 

Dear Friends, 

In this episode of Gateways to Awakening, I sit down with my new friend, David Lorimer, writer, poet, philosopher, Programme Director of the Scientific and Medical Network, and Chair of the Galileo Commission. We recently met in the South of France, while I was on Dr. Nicola Amadora's Mary Magdalene tour.

For decades, David has been at the forefront of conversations exploring consciousness, science, spirituality, near-death experiences, and the deeper nature of reality.
We begin with David’s lifelong “quest for wisdom” and why true wisdom cannot be separated from love, compassion, discernment, and direct experience. 

We also dive into the research surrounding near-death experiences, survival of consciousness, and the possibility that death is not an ending, but a transition into another mode of consciousness. David shares decades of experience studying these phenomena and the recurring patterns reported by people who have come close to death.
“We have to wake up, and we have to try to use our lives to contribute to the larger common good, and to grow in love and wisdom.”
— David Lorimer
Key Takeaways
- Wisdom is more than knowledge. True wisdom integrates discernment and deeper understanding with love and compassion.
- Intuition is fundamental to discovery. Major scientific breakthroughs often begin with intuitive insight before the analytical mind works out the science.
- Our current scientific understanding of consciousness may be incomplete, opening the door to a much larger exploration of the nature of mind and reality.
- Death may be a transition rather than an ending. Near-death experiences show striking recurring patterns, including peace, out-of-body experiences, beings of light, and life reviews.
- We may be expressions of one consciousness, raising profound questions about interconnectedness and the nature of the self.
- The mind and heart need to develop together. Intellectual or spiritual knowledge alone does not necessarily create an integrated human being.
- Mary Magdalene offers another lens on the Divine Feminine and the integration of sacred masculine and feminine principles.
Our lives can serve something larger. The invitation is to wake up, expand our consciousness, contribute to the common good, and continue growing in love and wisdom.

What if sound is one of the fundamental forces shaping our bodies, our consciousness, and even the world around us?

In this episode of Gateways to Awakening, I sit down with legendary sound healer, Grammy-nominated musician, author, and pioneer Jonathan Goldman, who has spent more than 50 years exploring the transformational power of sound.

We dive into Jonathan’s newest book, Ascension Harmonics, and his exploration of the Divine Name, an ancient sequence of sacred vowel sounds he describes as a “hotline to the Divine.”

“It is not only the frequency of the sound that creates its effect. It is also the intention of the person making and receiving the sound.” — Jonathan Goldman 

In this episode, we explore:

• Why Jonathan believes everything can be understood through vibration

• How sound may help restore the body to resonance and balance

• The principle Frequency + Intent = Healing

• Why love, gratitude, kindness, and appreciation transform the way we use sound

• The science and practice of humming

• Why every person is a unique vibratory being

• The ancient Divine Name and Jonathan’s work with sacred vowel sounds

• Sound, the biofield, and what Jonathan calls the “Gaia Matrix”

• Collective intention and planetary healing

• The relationship between sound, water, and DNA

• Jonathan’s extraordinary experience of sound becoming light

• Why silence is just as essential as sound

• And why healing ourselves and healing the planet may ultimately be the same act

Jonathan leaves us with a beautifully simple practice: take a breath, hum, and then become silent. In a world filled with noise, the space between sounds may hold some of the greatest gifts of all.

Dear Friends, 

I am excited to announce a new monthly membership for listeners of Gateways, called Gateways to Inner Knowing, where I'll be sharing reflections, takeaways, meditations, live calls, occasional guest drop-ins, and more. You can learn more here: 

In this episode of Gateways to Awakening, I sit down with Dr. Sue Morter, internationally recognized teacher, speaker, bioenergetics expert, and author of The Energy Codes, to explore the relationship between consciousness, energy, the body, and our deeper spiritual nature.

Sue’s work brings together ancient wisdom, energy medicine, meditation, and our understanding of the human body to ask a profound question: How do we move from intellectually understanding who we are to actually embodying it?

“The body isn't something we need to transcend in order to awaken. It may be the very instrument through which awakening becomes embodied.” - Dr. Sue Morter 

Big thank you to my soul brother Bruce Cryer for the introduction!

We explore why so many of us live primarily from the mind, what it means to bring our awareness back into the body, and how our energetic patterns can influence the way we experience ourselves and the world around us.

In this conversation, we explore:

• What The Energy Codes are and how Sue developed the framework

• Why consciousness and embodiment must work together

• What it means to live from the Soulful Self rather than the Protective Personality

• How energy moves through the body and why the central channel matters

• The relationship between breath, the nervous system, and consciousness

• Why intellectual insight alone doesn't always change our patterns

• How our bodies can carry unresolved energetic and emotional experiences

• What it means to embody rather than simply understand our spiritual nature

In this episode of Gateways to Awakening, Yasmeen Turayhi sits down with Dr. Edith Ubuntu-Chan, Chinese medicine doctor, consciousness pioneer, founder of the Luminous Human Institute, and one of the leading voices exploring blindfold vision, intuition, and expanded human perception.

Dr. Edith shares the remarkable journey that led her into the world of blindfold vision after witnessing children seemingly perceive information beyond their ordinary senses. What began as curiosity evolved into years of research, training hundreds of families, and exploring how these practices may unlock far more than the ability to "see" without sight.

Together, Yasmeen and Edith explore the intersection of intuition, telepathy, consciousness, education, and the rapidly changing world of artificial intelligence. They discuss why joy, play, coherence, and relaxed awareness appear to be essential ingredients for expanding human perception, and why cultivating our inner capacities may become one of the most important skills of the future.

In this conversation, you'll discover:

• What blindfold vision (or Mindsight) is, and why it's about much more than seeing without eyesight

• Why Edith believes intuition and expanded perception are innate human capacities

• How children often access these abilities with remarkable ease

• The surprising relationship between blindfold vision and telepathy

• Why coherence, play, and curiosity unlock greater perception

• How parents are transforming alongside their children through this work

• What these practices reveal about education, consciousness, and human development

• Why our greatest challenge in the age of AI may not be technological—but deeply human

• How cultivating our "inner technology" may become one of the defining skills of the future

Whether you're curious about intuition, consciousness research, telepathy, education, or the next frontier of human potential, this conversation invites you to consider a profound question:

Thank you,

I'm celebrating my 300th episode today! 

I am also launching the ⁠⁠Gateways to Awakening Patreon community ⁠to share behind-the-scenes voice notes and live monthly online gatherings to process the episodes. [Just launched!]

I just returned from one of the most profound experiences I've had in years, a pilgrimage through Southern France exploring the teachings of Mary Magdalene with Dr. Nicola Amadora, renowned spiritual teacher, holistic psychologist, women's leader, author, and speaker. I was so deeply moved that I knew I had to invite her onto Gateways to Awakening.
In this conversation, we explore what it truly means to embody the Divine Feminine. We talk about why so much of modern spirituality has become disconnected from the body, our emotions, relationships, and the fullness of our humanity, and why awakening isn't about transcending our human experience, but learning to inhabit it more fully.

"You don't become enlightened by escaping your humanity. You become more fully alive by inhabiting it." - Dr. Nicola Amadora 

"Take your meditation cushion into the world." - Dr. Nicola Amadora 

Nicola shares a radically embodied perspective on spirituality, reminding us that the sacred isn't somewhere "out there" waiting for us to find it, it's already here, alive in our bodies, our hearts, our relationships, and the natural world. ​

​We also dive into the life and legacy of Mary Magdalene, her role as a teacher, healer, leader, and embodiment of the sacred feminine, and explore the history of the Cathars, the Way of Love, and why these teachings feel so relevant in the world today. Dr. Nicola also spent time with Mother Teresa, Amma, the Tibetans, Thich Nhat Hanh, and so many wisdom teachers, and is truly one of the most embodied teachers I've met.

In this episode, we explore:

• What the Divine Feminine actually is, and why it's so often misunderstood

• Why embodiment is essential to authentic awakening

• The relationship between spirituality, shadow work, and emotional healing

• How to move beyond spiritual bypassing and fully inhabit your humanity

• Mary Magdalene's teachings and her role in restoring the sacred feminine

• The Cathars, the Way of Love, and their extraordinary legacy

• Why love isn't something we transcend into, it's something we embody

Dr. Nicola Amadora is an internationally renowned spiritual teacher, holistic psychologist, women's leader, author, and speaker who has spent more than 30 years guiding thousands of people worldwide in the revolutionary path of love, liberation, and embodied spirituality. Rooted in the ancient wisdom of the feminine and the teachings of Mary Magdalene, her retreats, professional trainings, and transformative programs invite people to awaken their deepest life force and live from greater authenticity, courage, and compassion. 

She is the author of Love Unleashed and the founder of a global movement dedicated to the rise of the feminine, inspiring profound personal transformation and a more heart-centered world.

What if reality is far more malleable than we've been taught?

In this special episode of Gateways to Awakening, I'm sharing the opening preview from my audiobook, A Glitch in the Matrix: 10 Energy Codes to Become the Main Character of Your Life.

This book is the culmination of over two decades of studying intuition, consciousness, kundalini and somatic yoga, meditation, evolutionary astrology, natural law, and human transformation. Along the way, I've come to believe that the most profound shifts don't begin by changing the outer world, they begin by changing the way we perceive it.

A Glitch in the Matrix explores how our attention, emotions, beliefs, and imagination shape the reality we experience. It offers a practical framework for recognizing unconscious patterns, reclaiming your energy, and creating a life that is more intentional, coherent, and aligned with your deepest knowing.

Whether you're new to this work or have been walking the path for years, I hope this preview offers a glimpse into the ideas that have transformed my own life and the lives of so many students I've had the privilege to work with.

If this resonates with you, I'd love for you to listen to the full audiobook and continue the journey with me.

Thank you, as always, for being part of this community.

What do non-speaking autistic children know about consciousness that the rest of us have forgotten?

In this fascinating conversation, Yasmeen Turayhi sits down with author, intuitive development teacher, and The Telepathy Tapes contributor Dalia Burgoin, mother of the prolific telepathic and autistic daughter Lidu, to explore one of the most compelling frontiers in consciousness today.

Dalia shares the remarkable journey of her non-speaking autistic daughter, Lidu, whose ability to communicate through spelling opened the door to extraordinary experiences, including telepathy, shared consciousness, intuitive perception, and what she describes as "The Hill," a multidimensional space of learning, healing, and guidance.

Together, they explore what these experiences may reveal about the nature of consciousness, intuition, autism, spirituality, and our untapped human potential.

You can listen to the entire conversation here:

• How Dalia's daughter Lidu, first demonstrated telepathic abilities

• What "The Hill" is and why so many people report similar experiences

• The hidden intelligence and gifts of many non-speaking autistic individuals

• Telepathy, intuition, and the possibility of a shared field of consciousness

• The role of dreams, guides, and what Dalia describes as our spiritual "teachers"

• Why Dalia believes telepathy is a natural human capacity waiting to be remembered

• Practical ways to begin developing greater intuitive awareness in your own life​

​Whether you're interested in consciousness research, intuition, spirituality, autism, or The Telepathy Tapes, this episode offers an invitation to question some of our deepest assumptions about reality, and what's possible for humanity.
