“Conscious leadership is not a leader's job. It's everybody's job. The distribution of leadership is that we all take the lead first and foremost for ourselves, for alignment and integration that helps us much more able to discern. Is this signal coming from a fear-based position? Is it destructive? How can I distinguish the different signals and decide whether this will take us in a better direction? I see it happening, Small, small drops, but in that sense, the future is already here.”—Claudia Lindby

Today's guest on the podcast is my good friend David Wetton, a Chartered Accountant and Warwick MBA, who is also an ordained interfaith minister.  As a Conscious Leadership mentor, David helps executive leaders transform their leadership presence and performance.  As a teenager, his career began very differently; he was intrigued by numbers and business, and this fascination led him to pursue a career in accounting. However, his spiritual journey profoundly understood the purpose of his life's path. David will share the phrase “either everything is sacred or nothing is," illustrating how he sees the sacred elements in every step of his journey.

Today, we will discuss transformative ideas at the intersection of spirituality and global change.

We'll explore Bitcoin's fixed supply, community trust, and its role in awakening people to the true nature of money. David shares how Bitcoin can serve as a means of wealth preservation in troubled economies and as a catalyst for creating a more just and spiritually aligned financial future. Plus, we’ll touch on the exciting potential of Bitcoin to bridge us toward a more sustainable and community-driven economy.

So, grab your headphones and join us as we look beyond the headlines and dive into Bitcoin's spiritual and practical dimensions with David Wetton on Sacred Changemakers.

142. Healing Our Core Wounds Using The Chiron Effect with Lisa Tahir

Our guest on the podcast today is Lisa Tahir, a licensed therapist, host of All Things Therapy podcast, glass artist, and author of The Chiron Effect: "Healing Our Core Wounds through Astrology, Empathy, and Self-Forgiveness," which was endorsed by His Holiness the Dalai Lama. Lisa lives and works in Los Angeles, California.

In this episode, we explore how we can all heal ourselves as Lisa shares her profound insights on the importance of finding happiness and living a life of joy. Her commitment to helping others began at the age of 21 when she first became a therapy client. During this transformative period, Lisa realized her life's calling: to aid others in healing their emotional wounds and finding resolution. This profound experience has shaped her career as she continues to guide individuals toward greater confidence and inner peace.

I think you’ll find many synergies as we explore Lisa's personal and professional evolution, including the inspiring moment when her work earned the endorsement of the Dalai Lama. We talk through the therapeutic values hidden in every aspect of life, discuss healing emotional wounds, and the critical role of traditional therapeutic methods, especially for trauma survivors. Lisa shares how her work has evolved to include astrology as we venture into the world of the Chiron paradigm, navigating the realms of self-awareness, healing core wounds, and embracing our inherent worth.

Lisa's wisdom on replacing negative thoughts with positive beliefs and her encouragement to expect miracles in life promise to inspire and empower your day. So, settle in as we journey together through tales of transformation, the power of nature, and the pursuit of a fulfilling life defined by your own standards.
