In the vein of Access Consciousness, founded by Dr Dain Heer and Gary Douglas, it's time to talk about what happens when we stop seeking answers and instead ask questions that release judgement, unwind old programing and rewire our subconscious mind. In this conversation with Access Bars practitioner, Vanessa Dodds, we talk about consciously manifesting from a place of intentionality; something different to unintentional manifesting that might result in more challenging roads to traverse through life upon. 

She shares with us how her initial experience, after a near fatal car accident, was one of feeling victimized and disempowered as she suffered from PTSD, anxiety and depression. Vanessa shares how she came to recognize that it was her power as a manifestor that created the accident that gifted her with a meaningful re-orientation of her career path from unhappy Chef to empowered and fulfilled Access Bars Facilitator. 

This conversation shares with you a path to asking questions from an energy that supports the deeper flow of your life to unfold with ease, joy and glory. It speaks to the suffering that so often guides our decision making, the limiting ways we box ourselves into creating smaller than the Universe intended for us and offers the questions we can ask of ourselves to expand our manifesting capacity.

Today it was time to talk about shedding more light on what's good in the world and how when we shift one grain of sand the whole world changes. You can too, just by being YOU.

I thoroughly enjoyed the playful nature of this conversation with writer, workshop facilitator, personal chef and ex ashram dweller, Priya Hutner. 

A pivotal takeaway for me from this sojourn into the nature of reality at this time, is that consuming the whole apple, skin, core, seeds and all, is as valid a path as the next thing to being One with it all. In other words, your vices can be as much of an opportunity for transformation as teachings from your Guru - when you come back to presence, back to the breath - when you remember that you are always just a breath away from the Truth.

If you've ever experienced your belief systems crumble, your sense of identity fray at it's fragile seams, and yourself suddenly walking upon a whole new land without a map or any clue of where to turn next, this conversation will bring you back to what is still real.

Join me in this deeply personal and transparent conversation with my dear soul sister, ecstatic dance facilitator, yoga teacher and healer, Sarsha Hope, as we reflect on our journeys to becoming the mothers we are today. We decided it was time to talk about how our sisterhood survived the collision of her fertility and my infertility, and to get raw and real about her choosing an abortion at the same time I'm struggling to get pregnant and going through IVF. 

It's time to talk about a woman's body and the impossible choices she is called to make around untimely pregnancies, miscarriage and the pregnancy that never comes. It's time to talk about who's those choices are and how to support the choices once made. It's time to talk about the deeper nature of those choices and the impact they have on humanity as a whole. 

We talk about freedom, equality and the extreme nature of our beliefs, how human's are known to maim, harm and kill for their beliefs, how we are currently missing the Benevolent Father Archetype, the importance of cultivating our own inner father as well as stepping into the truth of what future we are leaving for future generations.

Join me with author and speaker Will Pye, a radical being I am blessed to call my dear Zen Brother, in this rich conversation steeped in the practice of Gratitude. I was blessed to meet Will during a Zen meditation retreat back in 2011, two weeks after he had been diagnosed with a life threatening brain tumor. His response to this diagnosis was intense fascination and deep curiosity – an attitude which has taken him on an epic journey into the heart and soul of what it means to be consciousness embodied in human form and living on the very real brink of destruction, and all the while deeply grateful for the momentous gift such a journey brings.

Will serves the fulfillment of personal and collective potential through awakening Consciousness. Communicating globally as social entrepreneur, teacher, transformational coach, speaker and author his work includes all dimensions of human health and wellbeing and is summed up by ‘integrating’; integrating psychological wholeness and spiritual awakening, science and spirituality, reason and intuition, personal wellbeing with collective evolution and social justice.

Leading meetings, workshops and retreats across 5 continents insights from 15yrs research, practice and exploration into consciousness and transformation are shared with humour and love as Will facilitates tension, problem and despair into peace, opportunity and joy.

In Will’s own words, “Serving personal and collective transformation is my ultimate purpose and greatest joy. By guiding others to their deepest truth and greatest power more fulfilling and joyful lives naturally follow. In this way a new world continues to emerge; a world built upon the truth of our interbeing and arising from our realized love”.

We talk about Wills exploration in Radical Gratitude where every breath, pain, thought, identity and contraction are recognized as opportunities to relish in the joyful love of simply Being.

Will can also be found handing out Love Letters to strangers as part of a global movement of love and awakening he founded – The Love & Truth Partywww.loveandtruthparty.org and also hosts the popular podcast The TruthLoverwww.loveandtruthparty.podbean.com.

He has authored two books, “Blessed with a Brain Tumor”and “The Gratitude Prescription” – the latter of which we discuss more fully as the topic of this conversation.

It’s time to talk about what the Millenial Generation is really up to in their ME-centeredness. In this extra long edition I speak with 28 year old, Teacher and Facilitator of Healing and Wellbeing, Kiley McInroy, about what her generation is up to, how they’re honoring the ground set up by, yet seeing things differently than, the generations who have gone before. We discuss the impacts of living in the age of information, choice and abundance and discerning what is TRUE for you. We talk about social and environmental justice, wave makers and food awareness, human rights and authenticity, money attitudes and buying choices, communication and relationships, conscious uncoupling and learning to slow your nervous system down, sexual abuse and the #metoo movement, and much, much more.

In this conversation my heart was melted with hope, expanded with inspiration and swelled to overfilling with the love that flowed from this incredible woman I have come to know as a sister. I left this conversation feeling deeply content, as if her healing ways had burrowed into my heart and held my soul with the embrace of a wise old woman.

Our discussion included painful events in her life such as being sexually assaulted, twice no less. Kiley continually bought the conversation back to honoring our personal pain as doorways to our liberation. She talked about being the captain of your own team in order to make the authentic happen, about living an intentional life, calling in what she calls ‘Soul-Mate Clients’, eating a vegan diet, being a ‘sober enthusiast’, how her pain has been her greatest teacher and about ‘curiosity’ being the instigator for compassionately viewing the world.

In listening to this conversation you’ll get a wonderful insight into how you might tend to your own ME so you too may serve the WE in your unique and beautiful way. I hope too that you will see the millenial generation as self-ful over selfish, pro-active over impatient, conscious over ignorant. There’s a more evolved way of living life emerging through these beings and in this nearly two hour long interview we still didn’t scratch the surface of what this generation is really thinking about. It left me feeling excited for the new wave of politics that will hopefully flow through humanity in the very near future. I certainly wish I had been this awake and aware in my 20’s. So settle in with your favorite beverage, put your feet up and let this conversation take you on a journey of possibility.

It's time to talk about sound healing and to normalize it's value so more people can benefit from it's radical, yet simple, ability to heal and restore balance. In this conversation Gyongyi Ridenour and myself debunk the woo-woo around sound healing and drop into the deeper effects vibration has on the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual bodies. We talk about releasing stress through brainwave relaxation, childhood trauma and accumulated thought patterns in energetic form from the body, healing and rebalancing through deep molecular detoxification, neurological rebuilding and healing, how to shift addictive patterns, overcome depression and ultimately create a healthier, lighter, more grounded yet liberated sense of embodiment.

Born in Transylvania, Romania, this former national champion X-Country and Biathlon athlete followed her inner calling to heal through depression and consequently offer her path to healing others. Certified in Reiki and Yoga, Gyongyi uses singing bowls, gongs and other healing instruments like the Hand Pan to shake free the vibration of dis-ease in the body. 

Together Gyongyi and I offered a Guided Sound Bath Journey at Wanderlust Yoga Studio here in Squaw Valley, Lake Tahoe, which I include a recording of at the end of this conversation for you to explore yourself.... hopefully we'll come up with a better quality sound for the next one! In the meantime, may this journey dive you deep into your subconscious mind and take you into the wellspring of desire and what you really want in life at this time.

In today's podcast I get raw and real with MIT educated physicist Peter Fiekowsky. We talk about Climate Change and how humanity is on borrowed time in it's choice to become a full grown adult.

As you listen in on our conversation you will hear in Peter's voice joy, hope and optimism as we discuss how humanity past it's survival tipping point 30 years ago and the state of humanity's longevity now, how we need to bust through policy gridlock in the political realm and our need to achieve social permission to restore the climate so that we can take responsibility of future generations - in the same way our parents looked after us as kids. We talked about how the invocation of fear stops people from thinking creatively, how being a part of a tribe is more important than water for survival and how sharing intensely with people creates a happy humanity. We talked about science, brain evolution, thoughts, beliefs, relationships, happiness and the importance of turning the #metoo movement around; yep, all in the name of climate change. 

He also announces that the first ever Summit for Climate Restoration is coming up in September this year which finally gives us permission to restore the climate. This conversation is about what it takes to become a humanity of fully grown adults.

In addition to being an MIT educated physicist, Peter is the founder and Chairman of the Foundation for Climate Restoration. This foundation is working to ensure that the required actions are taken to restore a safe and healthy climate by 2050. Peter has 30 years’ experience as a citizen lobbyist for poverty and climate issues. He is also president of a software company providing critical software for computer chip production. He holds 27 patents, and lives in Los Altos, the heart of Silicon Valley. You can follow Peter on FaceBook by clicking here.

In this humbling podcast I interview Amy Barnes, Bhakti Yoga, Non-dual Tantra Teacher and Psychotherapist and Realtor of 22 years about her non profit service projects in Riverbend Maximum Security Institution (Friday Night Service Interfaith Fellowship Project) and South Central Correctional Facility (Yoga/Music Therapy) and the transformative effects of sharing yoga, meditation and singing on those involved. We talk about being raised a Nashville Native by a Reverend daddy and Tai Chi Yogi mama in the buckle of the bible belt and how service in prisons and Civil Rights activism were born into her bones.

It was a moving conversation that had me look at my own languaging with respect to this section of community, the judgments that have been held deep inside my conditioning and the compassion that deepened throughout this conversation as I began to see deeply entrenched beliefs float to the surface. This conversation will shed light on your own conditioning and programing around this sector of society and I pray that it humbles and opens your mind, creating space for a more unitive way of viewing society.  

We pay homage to her teachers Jai Uttal and Sally Kempton among others, while discussing insiders she’s spent time with such as Tony Vick who wrote the book Secrets from a Prison Cell, the innocent Cyrus Wilson who has served nearly 27 years incarcerated-so far-and is awaiting psyche evaluation to see if he will be released on parole this year. Don Johnson, is scheduled to be executed on May 16th 2019, and still praying for clemency from TN Governor Bill Lee. Rahim Buford, a released insider who now works with the Children’s Defense Fund Nashville Organizing Team, having spent 26 years in prison, has founded the non profit Unheard Voices. We also talked about different non-profits such as Jeannie Alexander’s, 'No Exceptions' She also mentions several times, for those who want to gain greater awareness of prison life realities, to watch the documentary Amendment 13 on Netflix. Also check out Call and Response Foundation.

After our sobering conversation we come to the conclusion that the inside is not different from the outside… and that Grace is growing at an equal or greater rate than dark. This is societal, not individual.

This interview was carried out as part of the bonus offerings for my Sacred Feminine Wisdom Online course. I'm excited to make it publicly available here now for men and women alike to benefit from. Barbara Marx Hubbard was known as “the voice for conscious evolution”. She was a visionary, a social innovator and an evolutionary thinker who believes that global change happens when we work collectively and selflessly for the greater good. She saw problems as evolutionary drivers and crises as that which precede transformation. She coined a new Archetype for our modern day 21st century woman, “The Evolutionary Woman”. Throughout this conversation you will hear her extraordinary passion, warmth and realism as she discusses other terms she has coined such as ‘Vocational Arousal’ and ‘Supra Sexual’ and how we have moved from joining our genes for pro-creation to joining our genius in co-creation.

Barbara Marx Hubbard left her body from this lifetime on the 10th of April 2019. It is up to us to carry on her work by keeping her light alive in our own riding of the cutting edges of evolution, to try new things for an unprecedented time in history, to not being afraid to be radical in our striving to create new ways of living sustainably and to think outside of the box as we look to the possibilities the future may bring us.
