The Positive Head Podcast

Marc is a passionate "Philanthropreneur" and founding member of both the Superhero Academy and Valhalla Movement. In this episode, Marc shares his inspiring personal story and perspectives that led him to pursue a unique path of coalescing superheroes, building sustainable community and proselytizing freedom culture. Brandon and Marc also share insights and highlights from their recent epic journey to Costa Rica at the Superhero Academy Mastermind meet-up and Envision Festival.

Brandon and Chris talk about a question that the latter posed, with regard to emotional & psychological pain and what it means in our lives: whether pain is connected to our desires as it's often said, what it purports to show us that we may need to look at, and how it's ultimately life energy that is naturally flowing though it may be temporarily stagnant.

Brandon weaves together his impressions of the Osho documentary currently being shown on Netflix, which tends to provoke mixed feelings due to its complicated subject matter, and his understanding of the work by Dr. David Hawinks most well-represented in his pioneering book Power vs. Force, as well as a related concept, what Dr. Hawinks termed the "Map of Consciousness".

Alexa chats it up with Ramin Nazer in the first of a two-part interview; he is an artist, owner of a small publishing company and a fellow podcaster. Ramin is quite engaging, intelligent and funny, and in this first part of his interview he shares some of his insights and wisdom with Alexa and the audience.

Brandon reads Chapter 9 of "Oneness" which contains an interesting allegory: life as a buffet that we visit with our clean plates, over and over again, looking to sample any of the delicious offerings we call contrast—and how we can content ourselves with simply "being" in between servings of this endless buffet.

Omar Makram was first featured on ep. #224 and returns to talk about his new book, Transcending the Maya Matrix. He gives Brandon some background on the book, which references both the famous sci-fi movie and the Hindu "maya" concept of illusion, and expounds upon the core of his writing which entails trusting and cultivating our innate guidance.

Brandon and Chris Jackson address a couple of wonderful questions from listeners who ask how one can continue expanding and getting more abundance in one's life if there is a perception that one already has enough, and a lovely message from a listener who dreamt of an awakened Earth and wondered how we can take his beautiful vision into the realm of tangible reality.

Brandon is "given" the theme of today's episode as an exploration of all things related to identity, something we all consider so integral to who we are as human beings, but which in the end is more akin to a role we act out in a play, with a relative usefulness that does not ultimately define nor limit our boundless spirits.

Emily Stroia is a spiritual teacher, author and founder of the online school Intuitive Soul Academy to help people tap into their intuitive gifts and heal past trauma. In this episode she tells Alexa her story, how she found her way to the podcast and she passes on some of what she has learned and gained, from this community and elsewhere.

Brandon reads Chapter 37 of "Oneness" which talks about conflict resolution without compromise and highlights the need to dig deep and be authentic when searching for lasting peace. This chapter was actually read before (#609) but it we decided to publish it again anyway, so that its message may find its way to whoever needs it most, as it seems to be especially relevant in these times.
