  • 368: The Other Side Of Cheating W/ Justin Blackburn

    Cheating, ghosting, infidelity. Radical ownership & honesty. Standing in integrity. Confronting the consequences of your actions. Evolving. Setting yourself free and trusting again.

    Quite a few hefty topics that we cover in today's episode with Justin Blackburn, who is a life coach, comedian, and poet, as well as the boyfriend to Giana Rackham from episode 364 of The Heartbeat, where she and Kevin discuss how Justin cheated on her! Shortly after that interview, Justin contacted Kevin to give his side of the story, which was definitely too interesting to pass up, so here we are.

    Lots to consider in this episode! From spiritual bypassing, to ego and how it likes to misidentify "unconditional love", all the way to the process of moving from anger to grief to eventual healing.

    "I do remember being very supportive to whatever she felt. Because I think when you're in the wrong, obviously if you kind of look at it like a spiritually sort of way, you know, you're kind of co-creating situations. But I like to be more human than that - because we're in a human body - so I always like to take responsibility for my mistakes first."

    "To know your soulmate, you have to know what's in your soul. And if you don't know what's in your soul, you're not going to find your soulmate."

    "And when I go deeper it's really because I want people to treat me with respect, and that's a great thing! That's a great thing that I want."

  • 366: Trusting Your Intuition W/ Aarona Lea

    Hello and welcome, love bugs, to this beautifully in-flow convo with Aarona Lea - author, creatrix, channel, oracle, and much much more - ranging from the mystical and metaphysical, to the deeply grounded, embodied, informative. Stick around until the end, where Aarona pulls some cards from her Moon Deck and discusses how they tie in to the collective and to you - the listeners!

    So much wisdom in this transmission, all about true connection to ourselves and our truth inward and outward - our boundaries, creativity, spirituality, community, place in the world at this moment, our power. That feeling of self-awareness and loving ourselves so deeply through everything, especially during this important time. A lot to be said about finding medicine in the shadow, and resonance in the dissonance. 

    Another interesting topic we cover is 'demystifying intuition', and really mining the body for wisdom to be able live fully and truly. All the while locating and embracing the harmony within, and constantly letting go of the old to bring in the new.

    We definitely cover a lot of ground here! This episode is one worth listening to a few times to really soak in all the inspired information.

    "From our parents, who were also shaped by culture. I mean, they're just passing it on in the society that we live in. We're seeing so many truths come out now that have always been there, it's just like - some of the population was aware of it, and some wasn't. And I mean once you start to see it, it's the painful process of that - of the healing - is that you start to see your shit everywhere. Which is a good sign! That's a good sign. It's painful and it's overwhelming but you start to see it like, 'oh my gosh, this is actually happening everywhere. I'm the common denominator in this thing, how can I look at that with compassion and not more judgement, because that then perpetuates the inner critic, and that perpetuates the suffering'."

  • 364: The Truth of Infidelity w/ Gianna Rackham
    Today's episode of the Heartbeat is an extra juicy one discussing infidelity with Gianna Rackham, relationship coach extraordinaire!
    Diving all the way in to everything related to cheating - including Gianna's personal story of codependency, abandonment, and a return to self love by choosing healthy boundaries and living in her truth every step of the way.
    The current narrative in our society is one of "hating the ex that cheated on you", but is it really so black and white? How do we work through our own insecurity, to be able to show up fully for our partner, while maintaining our own boundaries and showing up fully in our truth?
    "In my heart I know that we are all worthy of love."
    "When we reject ourselves we reject others."
    "Hold space for your partner's feelings - be so available for their truth."
    Stick around until the end where Kevin delves into his own love life, and find Gianna on Instagram @giannaloveandlight, in her Facebook group - Manifest and Keep your Soulmate, as well as Giannalightworker.com (check out the free quiz on what might be holding you back from finding your soulmate!)
    We reference the work of Esther Perel a number of times in this episode, as well as the book Wild at Heart by John Eldredge.

  • 362: The Single Life w/ Acamea Deadwiler
    Hi Love Bugs, and welcome to this week's episode of The Heartbeat with Acamea Deadwiler, who is the writer of the important and informative book Single That: Dispelling The Top 10 Myths Of The Single Woman.
    Firstly hear about Kevin's transition - travel, work, friends - all shifting and changing. Old way of doing things falling and dying away + new coming in constantly and consistently. The love of uncertainty and feeling comfortable in it, and why that's important right now especially. Feeling through this transition and change - that shift happening on a collective and personal level across the board.
    Here Acamea and Kevin discuss the many aspects and constructs of being single, and what that entails in our society at this time. Women often times being judged on their relationship status, and judging each other in turn. Plus some hope around what we can do to change the cultural and personal narrative bit by bit (being more joyful helps!)
    "It's a combination of things - it's what other people determine about women based on their being single, especially of a certain age, and I believe those outside opinions and outside ideas can be adopted by us. And so we start to believe those things about ourselves, we portray those philosophies onto other women. I don't even believe it's just the men, or just society, I think those ideas are something that have been kind of ingrained into us, and so we judge ourselves and other women by their relationship status."
    "We are so much more than relationship status, we are so much more than who we're dating, or, you know, being parents. You're a whole person in and of yourself."
    "We throw around 'learn how to love yourself' and things like that, but it is kind of an abstract concept, like, 'well what does that mean?' And I think that's the start, you know? Think about what you enjoy, think about what makes you happy, what brings you joy, what you like to do, and just start doing those things! Like you said, go in that store, take that trip, just start doing those things that bring you joy - independent of another person."
    Be sure to pick up Acamea's book, and find her on all the social media - Facebook, Instagram, Twitter @acameald
    And as always, rate and review this podcast if you're lovin' it, connect with Kevin on Instagram, heartguy.com, and be sure to join the book club! This month we're reading The Language of Emotions by Karla McLaren!

  • 360: Riding the Waves w/ Yasmin Elzomor

    Oh man, the waves have felt pretty big lately, right? Shit show or Great Awakening?? How do we navigate? How do we process? Find stability? What do we do when we're knocked off balance and walking through shadow? What kinds of tools are out there??

    We discuss all this and more with coach and shadow worker Yasmin Elzomor on today's episode of The Heartbeat. Let us know if you find this episode helpful!


    "That's one thing that's been heavily weighing on me. It's the idea that we can't just look towards the light without looking at the darkness first, you know? And actually getting intimate with parts of ourselves that we didn't want to look at before or that we felt uncomfortable facing, and now it's kind of just, like, being shown to us. To everyone."

    "It's like we're grieving an old world that we used to live in, and that we are no longer able to fit into that. Even I feel weird! Cause I'm like, 'wait, I feel like there's so many shifts on this planet', and - you know - astrologically, and just in every sense of the word. And we're really moving from 3D to 5D, and it's happening before our eyes."

    "It's really coming back to ourselves and trusting when we feel that sensation. It's like, for me personally, it's so hard to ignore that gut sensation that I feel when something's off. I immediately get really anxious and I start feeling it and I'm like, 'huh, this is not me; this is something else and I'm just feeling it', and then it comes out a few days after or later on."


    Main takeaways? -- Trust yourself, your gut, your intuition && find Yasmin on IG @yasminelzomor + @theyasminelzomor !!
