Trust can only exist through our authentic expression. To express ourselves authentically is to trust ourselves. The only way trust can exist with others is through trust in ourselves. This isn't about agreeing with people. This is about TRUST!

All around us, we have different relationships promoted to us.  Society tells us through different methods that being married is important.  That having thousands of friends and followers is important.  Unfortunately, there isn't much promotion of the most important relationship we can ever have.  Which I think is a major contributing factor to the overall poor mental well-being of our society.  What is that relationship?  Tune in and find out!

Whether we are aware of it, we all experience varying degrees of attachment.  Often times those attachments develop into unhealthy levels.  Our beliefs or ideas block out the ability to see different perspectives.  I'm right, you're wrong!  This leads to disconnection from ourselves and others at best.

Attachments are at the core of unnecessary pain and suffering around the world.  Attachment is what leads us to create enemies.  We're so entrenched in a belief that we can no longer comprehend how anyone can think differently.  At its worse, this is exactly what leads to war!  There becomes this 'need' to eliminate thy enemy.  No longer seeing the HUMAN on the other side.

Let's bring some awareness to this.

People experience all different kinds of hardships in life.  Some are difficult to understand how they can be impacting us at the moment.  We may not realize how formative different kinds of events are for us.  Especially if we're not cultivating awareness along the way.  Many of us, cultivate that year after the fact and are then forced to examine our lives in retrospect.  Exploring the revolutionary life of Jason Leenaarts shares some of those commonalities.  Jason has done an amazing job overcoming some significant adversity in his life.  Doing so now in a way that empowers others to live revolutionary lives!

We all have those parts of us that we try to hide from the world.  Depending on the situation we are in, will influence which part or parts we show.  While there are times this can benefit us, this can also lead to denying parts of ourselves.  In that space, we create inner turmoil.  Special guest, Ashanti Branch, has been working hard to support you people, men in particular, with a safe space to express themselves fully.  In that expression of full self, we can avoid the slippery slope of suppression.

Life is GOING to punch you.  Constantly.  There is no bell ring to save you.  It is going to keep coming at you.  The only way to defend yourself is to punch back.  How do you do that?  How do you punch back at something that isn't physically there?  In this episode, your host Ross Leppala will lead you through the process on how to punch back!
