Soul Purpose Leadership

Cultural Leadership + Becoming Emotionally Savvy + Power of Dads with James Silvas is here!

James is a Peak Performance Coach and Mindset Specialist with over 13,000 hours of training experience working with high performing teams such as Caesars, MGM & ADT. He is the founder of Be that 1%, a movement and brand that inspires others to be the one that lives life on their terms, overcome obstacles and do what 99% won't, and today James and Jennifer chat about leadership, emotional growth, mental wellness, and fostering an environment of vulnerability + safety, both personally and professionally.

James shares his experience with working with leaders to bring about unity and cohesiveness within company environments as well as transcending into a "new space" in how we connect and communicate with people. "I think this time right now is forcing us to get clear on what matters." -James Silvas

James gives insight into how to talk about hard things in order to create a culture of safety and vulnerability. "You just have to sit in the awkwardness and say 'I don't know if I have an answer, but I'm just gonna start the conversation and see where it goes.'" Trauma is also covered on today's episode-internal and external-as well as post-trauma growth, including the 5 areas of massive change when growing through past trauma.

And lastly, fatherhood! All the fears that being a parent in 2020 brings, and yet to that, James says "But then, what better time for someone I can infuse with love to come into this world, to be an example of what the world can be more of?"

Fellow Wellness Nerds-listen up!! Single Soul Purpose Episode 42 drops T O D A Y and we're getting science-y. We're so excited for this one because it's such a fascinating topic. We're joined by Spiritual Empowerment Teacher Nicole Marrè to discuss the science behind meditation. Nicole helps others awaken to their divine potential through energy healing, meditation, intuitive mentorship, and powerful mindset shifts. Nicole studies the links and bridges the gap between science and spirituality. After years of self-practice and inquiry, Nicole began to share knowledge from many different, but complementary modalities in the realm of energetics and spirituality.

"Meditation is what really skyrocketed me into an awakening-that I'm still experiencing," Nicole says.

Not quite there yet? No worries-on today's episode, we'll learn all about the basics-the bare bones-of what meditation truly is. "Meditation is the act of stopping…." Sounds pretty refreshing in this chaotic, busy time of life, right? "The journey will blast your mind open."

More than the basics, we also dive into the science behind meditation. Fun fact: did you know meditation changes the size of your brain? It makes the grey matter grow-you'll have to tune in to learn why that's vitally important. We also discuss different types + styles of meditation as well as meditation's power as we enter into this "new world" space.

Announcing a new episode of the Single Soul Purpose podcast! Episode 35: Upleveling Your Swagger: Beauty from the Inside Out & Outside In with Kayleigh Clark and Danielle Gronich, founders of CLEARstem Skincare. CLEARstem Skincare is a revolutionary skincare brand that is both Anti-Aging and Anti-Acne with zero hormones disruptors or toxins. The brand was founded in San Diego, CA by two women, Danielle Gronich (owner of the acclaimed San Diego Acne Clinic) & Kayleigh Clark (Holistic Nutritionist).

The co-founders met when Kayleigh was suffering from severe cystic acne, searching for answers, and found San Diego Acne Clinic. The two bonded over their mutual passion for holistic skin health and whole body wellness. After doing their due diligence and finding that existing products contained pore-clogging ingredients or toxic chemicals that disrupted hormones, they decided that their clients and the world deserved better. Danielle and Kayleigh decided to partner in 2016 to dedicate their lives and careers to create CLEARstem skincare, and keep creating products that delivered positive change without sacrificing health.

On today's episode, Jennifer chats with Danielle and Kayleigh about the link between gut health, mental health, and skin health, including why harsh medications aren't always the answer/how nutrition can, and should, be the first line of defense in developing beautiful, healthy skin. On that note, Kayleigh and Danielle also bust a few skincare myths: "Just because something's healthy internally doesn't mean it's going to be good for your skin."

Kayleigh and Danielle also share practical tips on how they're personally managing stress and "upleveling their swaggers" during this pandemic.

Connect with Kayleigh and Danielle on Instagram @clearstemskincare and visit their website where you can learn about their amazing Ditch Your Acne courses available for everyone from "The Everyday Woman" to "The Health Practitioner" with Single Soul Purpose podcast listeners gifted 20% off!
