LET'S PLAY: THE CREATE PODCAST

The adventures in Paris continue! This week we talk about how spontaneity has been teaching us a lesson. How unexpected joy brings a fresh energy to it. Just as we know that as artists, something wants to create THROUGH us, in the same way there’s an energy that wants to live THROUGH us... if we allow it.

When we told people in New York that we were traveling to Europe for the summer, we were often met with the question, “For what?” And when we replied, “For Joy!” We got blank faces, and then, “What!?!” We kept thinking how funny and interesting it was that JOY was such a foreign concept. Isn’t that the best reason to do ANYTHING? So, in this week’s podcast we talk about Joy as the motivating factor, and why it might be the most important motivation that we need.

If you know us, you know we love to talk about longing! But have you ever thought of longing and desire being the way that Life Itself, the All of Existence, communicates to us what wants to be born in the world? So, if we find that we are turning down our desire, or denying ourselves what we want, we are shutting out that new thing that wants to be created through us. Take a listen, and then turn in to your deepest heart’s calling…

You know how we just talk about what we are learning? Well, we are both lovers (and students!) of Tosha Silver and her Change Me Prayers, and she talks so much about the “open hand” concept. It is trusting that whatever is meant to come into your life will come, and whatever needs to leave will leave. It’s living in non-attachment. It is letting go of grasping because we know we don’t need to wrestle things into our experience. We can have faith that we are always Divinely cared for — at the perfect time, in the perfect ways.

Yes!! We are doing it!!! Inspired by Elizabeth Gilbert’s “City of Girls” we are doing a podcast on FEMALE DESIRE. Yes! This podcast was designed to turn you on — in fact, “turn on” is the whole point! In your life, in your dharma, in the little tasks in life, where can you get curious about your internal charm? That is the Holy Place. “Turn on” turns on your power, your energy, and raises your vibration. It’s time to dive into your desire and let it lead you...

How do you know what to do next? What if you have so much you wanna do and you get into overwhelm? How do you learn to listen to that still small voice inside of you and decipher it’s messages? This week we answer two different listener questions as we explore what internal listening is and how it can lead us in the right direction at the right time. We share lots of exercises and tools that we have used to get us to be better listeners and talk about some of the messages that we have been receiving.

This week — prompted by a listener’s request — we dive into love, attraction, desire, conditional and unconditional love. It opened up a very personal conversation about shame and security, and how it can all become a portal to a deeper listening. We explore the inner romance of the soul, and the importance of allowing deep questioning and self-exploration to become an invitation into a Love Affair with Life.

It’s funny how we often try to change the circumstances of our life -- so that we can be happy -- but we are working on the outside, so that the inside will be different. It’s like we are moving around the furniture, when the true interior design wants to be done on the INSIDE. This week we talk about the traps of “moving the furniture” and how we might change our focus to the real energetic work.

This week our sweet Natalie Roy has laryngitis — send all the love and healing vibes her way!! So this week, we have a treat, it’s a conversation with our buddy Rob Bell on creativity, spirituality, and listening to the stillness within. And as a podcast first, he is dropping this same interview on his podcast this week, while we drop it on ours! So all the friends can listen!!
