This episode comprehensively explores the subject, Identity Crisis. The human experience is coated in the theme of misplaced identity and it is rationally conceivable to claim that one of the cardinal purpose of the human experience is to explore itself as beings of the universe. Much like the universe, humans are dynamic by nature and hold an innate capacity to create and to recreate the self. This concept is often trivialized and disregarded in order to limit the possibilities of human potential.

Stillness is an act of stabilizing the complexity that is the human person. Stability is essential for the overall wellness of the mind, spirit, body and soul. It seeks to bring all components of the divine being into alignment with the universe, which grants us the ability and the capacity to live our lives as authentic as possible. This episode brings awareness to the human social epidemic that is activity & discourses in great detail, how that is often mistook for productivity, which has left us disorganized, blindly seeking to chase after every and anything that stimulates our instincts to be physically active rather than being reflective. It further keeps us avoidant and dismissive of the responsibility of going within ourselves in order to discover that which is, and heal all that which is not.

The truth remains that one cannot easily separate the sensations felt when experiencing emotional, mental or physical pain, as all three aspects align to thrive when met by a painful encounter. Giving this reality, pain manifests itself in every aspect of our lives and gives credence to the true nature of universal making. The power that pain holds can be utilized in personal growth through observation, curiosity and accountability, all of which is considered primal to triggering self awareness. In this episode, the host, Retta Rich further narrates her experience with a dense human emotion named jealousy, and attempts to uncover the various ways at which she was able to alchemize what was meant to be an excruciatingly displeasurable experience, into a moment of self enlightenment.

This episode presents a broad concept on the idea of pain, as well as it explores the sensation of pain in regards to its true nature, and it’s underlying benefits. In order for pleasure to find meaning within the human experience, pain must equally prevail. The human makeup is more complex than our consciousness attempts to understand or to explain it, and this must be taken into consideration when engaging with various ideas, philosophical standings, and cultural practices in order to continually promote and advocate for the overall human development. Pain is an effective educator, motivator, inspiration and activator and should be experienced, not just in its negative stance, but also in the light of positivity that it certainly does hold. This episode introduces this conversation with personal stories, relatable instances birth and inspired by relatable human experiences. Given the vastness of this subject, the conversation on pain is expected to run its course on two episodes (Ep. 7 & 8), as it proves challenging in keeping to one episode but rather extends in the time delegated to each episode on Live & Alive with RettaRich (Let’s Talk About It Edition). I’m sure that you’d find this much to your liking.

Loving oneself goes far beyond taking care of the physical self; it also entails learning and caring for the human mental, emotional and spiritual components. This episode explores all of these and more by paying close attention to how we can love ourselves through healing. By uncovering the underlying issues that are beyond the scope of our consciousness, we expose ourselves to developing, and, or adapting mores, values, beliefs, and habits that would aid in expanding our perception of ourselves, as well as strengthen our ability to perceive the world accurately. Self love grants us the opportunity to take charge of our lives and to live in accordance with our authentic purpose despite the harsh realities that may stand against us in doing so. This episode is educational, entertaining and adopts a relatively natural narrative flow that aids in mental stimulation, spiritual activation and emotional perception. It is aimed at stimulating the interest of the audience, enough to empower them to uncover their original thought, and also challenge them to re-examine their current thought pattern. In a nutshell, self love grants us the capacity to expand our intellect, and to aid in redirecting the negatively altered state of our sub-conscious in order to bring clearer awareness to how behave. It also cleanses the overwhelm of low vibrational emotions that we evoke which keeps us in conflict and resistant to change.

Depression is undoubtedly currently one of the most talked about topics in todays society. However the strength of its popularity, there also lies underlined issues to how it is perceived and experienced in general. Amongst other issues plaguing youthful experiences in todays society, depression as well as other mental health issues take lead in being a primal subject for capitalist driven societies to prey on by deducing the human experience to a series of clinical identifiable host of mental and physical symptoms which are then “evidently” diagnosed and prescribed pharmaceutical treatments. This ongoing activity has therefore led to the sudden rise in number of medical diagnosis of persons with mental health issues, specifically, depression. Since spiritual concerns are designated to religion, there is little to no education on the spiritual implications or impacts in certain temporary human mental, physical nor psychological conditions experienced primarily aimed at facilitating spiritual growth. On this episode, the host, Retta Rich, attempts to marry all different ideas by revealing her personal thoughts gained through experience, observation, research and mental evaluation. It is educational, entertaining and exploratory in its style of description. It caters to a host of audiences who find conversations of such nature intriguing and worth engaging with.

..abundant and to live exist in the energetic field of gratitude. In today’s world, we all struggle with certain harsh realities that is only are as a result of man’s evolution into a more complex way of living, in the attempt to instigate community “expansion.” This has brought in an ample amount of distorted perceptions and point of views in the actual nature of life’s bearings. This episode seeks to expose these ideas and hopefully identify the flaws and the fallacies that exists within them. Poverty is a mindset that evidently creates the physical manifestations of lack, and this is because they operate on the same energetic vibration, so is gratitude to abundance. The more that we are able to make conscious efforts in connecting with high vibrational energies, the better chances we stand at experiencing life in the colorful ways that we are meant to experience her. Believing that we are the universe and therefore by being, worthy of experiencing all that it holds in the best ways possible helps us align with flow and eliminates resistance. This, Miss. Retta Rich states, is a way to live our lives in an enriching state, which eventually provides us with fulfillment and contentment in our experiences, good or bad, through life’s work of art.

A comprehensive view of intimacy provides humans with an innate ability to create a life of harmony within ourselves as well as with others. Through shared experiences, we are able to expand our views on life and enrich ourselves by doing so. Although the episode focuses on physical intimacy, it is important that we understand that humans cannot achieve true intimacy without connecting with the other aspects of it. We are emotional creatures and whether we choose to connect with that part of ourselves or not, we are bound to translating life with the support of our emotions. Love for self and for others can only truly be achieved when we choose to take risks in the various possibilities that comes with connecting with others. We have the ability to absorb and to rationalize the feelings and the emotions that we experience therefore, we are transformed, positively or negatively by the perspectives we choose to identify with them. Sex is a sacred exchange of human creative energy and should be seen and observed as such. Minimizing the fears that we are programmed to identify with this experience is key to understanding and utilizing it to our benefit, hopefully in such a way that advances us as humans rather than the later. The values that we hold about the subject of intimacy and sex is critical to manifesting how we engage with it in our daily lives. Conversations centered around the subject must become sociably engaged with in order to aid in our personal development, be it mentally, spiritually, physically and emotionally. In this episode, Retta Rich speaks openly about sex and intimacy and further attempts to stay neutral on the subject despite her personal beliefs, moral and spiritual values. The primary point of the conversation is to help create awareness about the unique and expansive nature of these natural experiences in hopes of creating affinity with the complex nature of the human experience as it relates to it. We hope that you enjoy this episode of Live & Alive with RettaRich - Let’s Talk About It Edition.
