Today's Life Question of the Week asks, when someone feels as if they have betrayed themselves, how can they move forward feeling free and happy? Next, Micheal welcomes Gerard Powell, a conscious entrepreneur whose mission is transforming lives. He is the founder and CEO of Rythmia Life Advancement Center, an all-inclusive, medically-licensed spiritual retreat in Costa Rica, the "go-to" program for spiritual awakening and personal transformation where over 97% of guests have reported receiving a miracle. He is also the author of two books, Sh*t the Moon Said: A Story of Drugs, Sex, and Ayahuasca and Truthenomics: The Science of Allowing Abundance Through Honesty.

During their personal and revealing conversation, Michael and Gerard discuss:

-Gerard's journey from successful business owner to conscious entrepreneur through experiencing a personal crisis that initiated him onto a journey of self-transformation

-The importance of understanding the difference between living to give vs. living to get

-Gerard's life of abusing alcohol, drugs, and sex - until he had a powerful encounter with plant medicine that transformed and liberated his life and inspired him to found the Rythmia Life Advancement Center

-That when we tell the unadulterated truth of where we want to go, the Universe always makes a way

-The various programs Rythmia offers (e.g., metaphysical workshops, breathwork, meditation, stem cell therapies, massages, plant medicine, etc.) - and so much more!

**Please note that today's episode contains explicit language.** And, as always, Michael concludes with a brief teaching and meditation that captures the spirit of and lessons from his conversation.
