When Oprah Winfrey, Jack Canfield, and Deepak Chopra all agree on something, you know it’s probably worth at least checking out — and I was absolutely blown away by my time with Panache Desai, author of "You Are Enough: Revealing the Soul to Discover Your Power, Potential, and Possibility."

There are few conversations I’ve had in my life that were more uplifting or inspiring than this one. Panache is truly a spiritual teacher for the modern age, able to communicate spiritual truths and ancient concepts in a way that feels simple and approachable. 

"You Are Enough," for example, shares a revelatory energetic process that moves you beyond what holds you back, opening a gateway to passion, purpose, and possibility. It isn’t just a theory. You can put the ideas that Panache shares in this podcast and in the book into action right away, transforming the way you experience life.

But, above all else, we both hope you leave this episode with one takeaway — that YOU ARE ENOUGH!

 

07:45 — Being grateful

• There are small gifts that came during the pandemic, especially if you get to spend more time with family
• The health struggles that Panache’s youngest child went through during the first 18 months of her life
• We need to suffer in order to be humble
• Advice for anyone struggling with the trap of fear in this time of magnificent change and social upheaval

26:40 — Reconciling the brand with spiritual service

• Panache’s awakening
• The difference between having a career and having a calling
• How to maintain humility as one grows in fame, notoriety, and success
• How to be empathetic and serve others without taking on their burdens

 

36:05 — “The Fallen Guru” phenomenon

• The first time Luke prayed to a particular entity
• The subsequent scandal around that guru
• Not mistaking yourself as the source when you are a spiritual teacher
• How Panache has had to contend with the spiritual ego and the feeling of specialness
• Every role we identify with is a limitation that we eventually have to transcend

 

43:35 — How ayahuasca served as a catalyst for Panache

• A masterclass in shaktipat

01:02:45 — Your luminous self

• Finding an entry point to the luminous aspect of yourself, even without plant medicine
• Purifying the vessel
• Nurturing sustainable states of connection
• What it’s like to see non-physical entities on a regular basis, including the ones behind me during this recording
