Imagine… we’re in 2022 and social media posts, comments, chat messages, and tips are truly peer-to-peer. No filtering or censoring, no third party screening your content. YOU are the owner of your content, data, and community.

Well, it officially exists.

So excited to have JP and Justin on today to share all about Zion — a platform reimagining social media so that you, the creator, own the keys to your community.

JP, Justin and I dive into…

→ Zion's business model: creating digital sovereignty

→ The benefits of exiting our current centralized world

→ The erosion of free speech and how Zion is a true solution; not a quick fix

→ The shaky foundations and issues with today's social media platforms

→ Providing community leaders with the option to compensate contributors and fans

Charles Clay joins us for an intimate conversation on the depths of loneliness and releasing shame, fear and stagnant energy. We unpack the intricacies of our emotions and pain and how they act as our body’s communication system; signaling with a subtle cue or with an abrupt wake up call; oftentimes the latter, due to dismissing the wisdom of our own body. In our current society, these signals can be numbed or suppressed by our addiction to consume – alcohol, netflix, social media, food – but if we can learn to feel the extent of our hurt, receive the gifts and lessons, and realign with our body… we make room for long term fulfillment.

Charles and I dive into…

→ Learning to listen to the subtle communications of our body

→ The importance of feeling our emotions fully and knowing when positivity becomes spiritual bypassing

→ What creator consciousness is and how to tap into it

→ Taking responsibility to heal our wounds so as not to sabotage our present and future experience

→ Deathbed regrets

Mikki joins us for his second time around (see Episode 58 for his debut) to discuss the important work that he's in the midst of – the production of several documentaries and a book that he just released – and the current state of the world. Mikki's well known for his 100% censored and 0% debunked documentary called Plandemic: Indoctornation. What was considered conspiracy from many nearly 2 years ago has unsurprisingly come to fruition. We unpack much of this in today's episode.

Mikki and I dive into…

→ Navigating criticism while being targeted.

→ A society striving for likes and acceptance — and psychological manipulation to encourage addiction to being liked.

→ How to stand for your beliefs while holding compassion for another’s.

→ Mainstream media’s tactic in weaponizing morality.

→ Why we are more vulnerable to coercion when we are in a state of emotional reactivity.

Dr. Craig Koniver of Koniver Wellness is on with us today and this conversation’s been in the queue for quite some time now. I was introduced to Craig back in 2017 while on my way to the Route 91 festival that would, soon after, be the catalyst for a massive existential shift.

As we began working together on getting my wellness dialed in, I learned quickly that Dr. Koniver was respectfully untraditional in his approach to medicine; unsatisfied with the disease-based model of modern medicine. What I love most though, is that his approach is completely individualized. His understanding of the human body and the vast differences that we all share within our own personal ecosystem, truly make him one of the most well-respected practitioners. Dr. Koniver seeks to help his clients optimize their health and performance through time-tested, nutrient, and science-driven protocols that are the cutting-edge of medicine.

Dr. Koniver and I dive into…

→ De-stigmatizing ketamine; its positive impacts on regulating the nervous system

→ Understanding addiction vs psychological dependence

→ NAD+ therapy and why this is his #1 recommended protocol

→ How to effectively supplement with vitamins

→ How dysregulation of testosterone and thyroid impacts the nervous system; thyroid being the top issue in women over 40

→ Grounded insights around the current state of affairs

Loved having my buddy, Steve Astephen, on today’s episode to share what it took to follow his bliss; a collaboration of beauty and tribulations.

The Familie, a brand new agent/manager hybrid, is the product of following his heart and setting aside the chase for wealth – inspiring a massive mindset shift within him.

Topics we dive into…

→ Shifting the paradigm within the talent agency model

→ Brand and life authenticity > wealth generation.

→ Overcoming childhood adversities and trauma.

→ Identifying ways in which we self-destruct or self-sabotage.

→ How guilt influences our daily actions and interactions.

Jesse Elder is someone that, I would argue, cannot be triggered. As someone who lived most of their life with a black and white mindset, I constantly feel inspired by Jesse’s ability to navigate immensely oppositional conversations with such supreme grace and openness. How did he acquire such a beautiful understanding and way of being? His answer: upbringing. 

Jesse shares with us his journey through childhood to now and what he’s learned along the way about personal triggers, the education system, irrational fears, the illusion of time, and building relationships based on worthiness.

Jesse and I dive into…

→ Our education system’s amplification of unworthiness.

→ Irrational fears: how are they born?

→ How broadening lived experiences builds resiliency.

→ Ways that our unique gifts are tampered with from a young age.

→ Embracing timelessness: being free from the past and future.

→ The echo chamber of fear that is instilled in many of us.

Inspired. If Khalil does one thing on this podcast, he’ll leave you feeling inspired.

From growing up experiencing a variety of abusive relationships, to living under a bridge and addicted to nearly everything under the sun, to living a life beyond his wildest dreams… Khalil Rafati shows what’s possible, regardless of one's circumstances.

During this conversation, I asked Khalil if he ever misses the feeling of ‘serenity’ that heroin and other drugs provided him with, and his answer… “No, because I discovered and made peace with the why behind these unhealthy choices – my pain, unresolved trauma, lack of self-worth.” Tune in to learn how he did just this.

Khalil and I dive into…

→ An intimate and vulnerable glimpse into Khalil’s abusive upbringing.

→ The cycle of feeling inferior and how this creates our reality.

→ Making peace with our circumstances and taking responsibility for the present and future.

→ Decoupling from the idea of ‘earning’ love.

→ How he arrived at a place of gratitude and joy post-addiction.

→ The birth of an empire that would change his life: SunLife Organics.

Daniel specializes in transformative bodywork, energy alignment, and sound frequency attunement. Throughout his 20s and 30s, he found himself dancing with toxic habits – low frequency foods, alcohol, pills – and with the help of various plants and teachers, discovered powerful tools for transmuting unhealthy energy in a way that served both himself and the greater masses.

He shares his journey of healing himself and his relationships, his R.E.S.Q. program – designed to shift the paradigm of recovery – and how our current societal disconnection is impacting much more than we realize.

Daniel and I dive into…

→ Daniel’s process with healing family lineage.

→ How our societal disconnection is leading to environmental unrest.

→ Shifting the paradigm of ‘recovery’ through his R.E.S.Q. program.

→ Being struck by lightning twice and what this awakened within him.

→ Forgiving resentful energies that prevent us from connecting with loved ones.

→ The divisiveness that occurs when we label ourselves and one another.
