  • 10. Cognitive Distortions - Self Imposed Dark Jedi Mind Tricks

    Have you ever woken up in a cold sweat and thought to yourself "my life is a dumpster fire"?


    Gods know I have! I got some great news for you!!!

    If you think that chances are your life isn't a dumpster fire. If it was, you wouldn't have time for that conscious thought, you'd be busy putting it out. If you are on fire, remember STOP... DROP... SHUT EM DOWN OPEN UP SHOP! (RIP DMX)

    That "dumpster fire" thought is an example of a cognitive distortion; a negative train of thought that is not rooted in reality.

    Our minds love to use these cognitive distortions to "try" to keep us safe. I say "try" because most of the fears it's keeping at bay are a mask for desire. Yep, your fear is a mask for desire. Unless you have a free of snakes, I don't trust anything that moves in an S shape.

    In this episode I outline 11 Cognitive Distortions with examples, share how some have played tricks on me, and offer a powerful solution to them. Here is your cheat sheet

    HAPPY 10th episode to me!!! At the end of the episode, I have a special announcement for listeners.

    Remember you are more powerful and capable than you know!

  • 9. Aqua Mann's Stunt Double w/ Tim Petro

    Today I am Tim Petro to discuss what it means to be a man in today's society. Feel your feelings, trust your brothers, honor your sh*t and enjoy yourself!


    J-Star was not a white dude.

    Hello! I am Tim and I'm a father, artist, warrior, healer, lover, paddle boarder, and more! I do my best to live authentically, with love for the Universe, Momma Gaia and all beings here! In May I decided that I needed to shake my life up like an Etchy Sketch and I left my home of 43 years in Colorado to travel and really find myself. I know what it's like to work at a job that doesn't feed your soul, to be married for 18 years when you're young, and then to lose most of your stuff having to start over again! I want to assist others going through huge life shifts with no sense of direction to find a new path and embrace their full potential! I also want to work with men on rediscovering what it really means to be a healed masculine in today's world because it's very much needed!

  • 8. Sex, Tantra and Cocoa Puffs w/ Sascya Shakti

    The Sacred Slut and Black Dragon energies are a powerful and dark dance of creation, sexuality and mysticism. Sex was once a sacred act that has now been stripped of its holy nature.


    Sascya and I discuss Devadasi and the sacred healing that strip clubs can offer. We get into Sacred Slut program and how it's not just for women leading into talking Polarity and Sexuality. Also she talks about the challenges of speaking on a podcast in your non native tongue, while I shared the challenge of only remembering how to say "Hello, my name is Matt and I am a banana" in French. Life ain't fair!!

    Sasyca Shakti is a powerful young woman on the spiritual path, courageous and curious to explore life. By profession she is a striptease performer and an instructor for exotic poledancing. Although she is passionate about bringing more light to the usually shadowy gentlemen clubs, she desires to bring my soul's work to a wider audience for greater impact and sexual healing. Sascya help women to embody their Sacred Slut archetype through which they connect to their sexuality and become healing. And this type of feminine energy embraces the masculine, it honors masculinity and through that men get inspiration to create, to embody the safe and healthy masculine energy, to provide and protect. Men feel they are necessary and they are so desired.   People are most moved by my bold yet uncommon life choices, playful approach to life and my drive.

  • 7. Life Becomes Easier As We Get Stronger w/ Steph Larocque

    Things become easier when you find your unique way, sometimes that takes some trial and error. As a result of this, life gets easier as we get stronger.


    Steph opens up and shares her journey with Lupis, the power of being your own advocate, and yogic philosophies. We talk about the power of the words we speak and discuss whether we should police our words to not trigger people. I believe we shouldn't, and that it will only serve to disempower others and Steph believes that somewhere in the middle is the sweet spot. Who will win this battle of the spiritual titans?!?!

    Stephanie Larocque’s wellness journey began when she was just a teenager. Diagnosed with Lupus, a debilitating chronic illness that attacks an otherwise healthy immune system, Steph turned to yoga and quickly discovered the healing power of spiritual practice. Coupled with years of personal study, practice, and infinite support from skilled yoga teachers, she manifested her new passion by becoming a certified yoga teacher and spiritual life coach. Stephanie is passionate about helping people connect to their true selves, heal their body, mind, and spirit; and live a purposeful life.

  • 2. Remembering Your Felt Sense To Begin Healing Your Inner World

    Today's disconnected society will have you believe that the only way to heal is to look outside of yourself for an external savior. The only person capable of healing/saving you, is you. No one is coming to rescue you. Stop looking for a guru or healer, bring your awareness abck inside you to connect with your "Felt Sense".

    Your "Felt Sense" is the medium through which you can begin to experience the totality of sensation.

  • 1. Let's Get Vulnerability Out Of The Way

    10 years ago I thought I only wanted to lose 60 pounds of fat. Sounds simple.

    I stumbled along the path of Healing and Spiritual growth that I never knew I needed. I've shifted my mindset from being the victim of my own story to becoming the Hero I always wished would save me. This Victim to Hero shift helped me overcome anxiety, depression and my addictions to food, drugs and alcohol.
