Becoming an Empowered Empath with Wendy De Rosa

In school, we learn all about our physical anatomy but not about our energetic system.

In this episode, we discuss the tools to reframe empathic traits as gifts to celebrate instead of burdens to bear.

Wendy De Rosa is the author of Becoming an Empowered Empath. The founder of The School of Intuitive Studies, she has been helping people develop intuition and experience personal transformation for over two decades. Wendy is a popular faculty member at the Shift Network and has filmed two programs for MindValley’s spiritual growth channel.

You’re Just Highly Sensitive with Alexandria Thibodeaux

Alexandria Thibodeaux spent the early part of her life wondering why she was deeply unsatisfied, suffering mentally, and unable to find a job that she could keep. Her introduction to Dr. Elaine Aron’s book, The Highly Sensitive Person, put everything into perspective and sparked a healing journey that would lead her to guide others to an understanding of this trait and give them the tools needed to function well in the world.

This knowledge, along with a discovery that her family had hidden her Black ancestry from her, sparked an “identity rebirth and cultural renaissance” that gave Alexandria the curiosity and fearlessness to step out into the world as her truest self.

Bio: Hello there! My name is Alexandria Thibodeaux! I am a highly sensitive Creole living amongst the Rocky Mountains of Denver, CO with my husband and our 3 animal companions: Zuni & Theo (our cats) and Herman (our dog).

I serve as a self-relationship coach, speaker, and writer who helps highly sensitive persons (HSPs), survivors of emotional abuse, and self-motivated individuals navigate life from a place of self-acceptance and operate via fierce intuition, unwavering self-respect, and complete authenticity! This is my movement that I’m furthering!

Andrea Forsythe describes her spirituality as humans interacting on a very imperfect level while having grace for, and seeing each other, through God’s eyes. Her religious affiliation belongs The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, which she also finds imperfect. Her deep love for the church compels her to stay as she asks the institution to face its shadow and start protecting members that have traditionally been ostracized by its laws.

Andrea’s “mental break open”, an experience when everything in her life fell apart, catalyzed her advocacy for those who have experienced trauma in the church, including women and the BIPOC and LGBTQ+ communities. Although she lost friends and social currency for speaking out, she gained a voice that she is using to mobilize others in helping the church shift to prioritizing people over dogma.

Bio: Andrea Forsythe is an active member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (Mormon) who loves the church and also tries to create a safe and inclusive place for BIPOC, women, disabled, people with mental health challenges, and LGBTQ+ members inside the church. It’s her conversion to Jesus’ life of radical love and inclusion and her own mental health struggles that have been the inspiration for her activist work inside the church. Andrea is a public speaker, writer, mother, wife, musical theatre performer, and friend.

Found in Transition with Paria Hassouri, MD

“If there is a book you want to read, but hasn’t been written yet, then you must write it.” This Toni Morrison quote inspired Paria Hassouri to write Found In Transition, a modern family’s story of a child’s gender change and a mother’s transformation.

When Paria’s teenager, designated male at birth, first revealed that she thought the sex she was assigned was not her actual gender identity, Paria’s first reaction was to shut her down. In this interview we discuss how the initial reaction of denial and fear transformed through love to acceptance for her daughter, taking her from a blindsided parent with no other stories like hers to relate to, to sharing her family’s story as a roadmap for others. Learn how hope, community, media representation and a needed update in healthcare standards contributed to her family’s story.

Paria Hassouri, MD, is the author of Found in Transition. A pediatrician, mother of three, and transgender rights activist, her essays have been published in the New York Times, Washington Post, Los Angeles Times, Huffington Post, and Women’s Running Magazine. She lives in LA. www.PariaHassouri.com.

Human Resilience Activation with Andrea Bazoin

How does one determine a person’s value? By society’s standards, it’s inextricably tied to the amount of money that is made. If this is the primary metric, than the many people who have lost work due to the pandemic may find their self-esteem and self-worth at an all-time low.

Andrea Bazoin believes value should be measured not only by monetary worth, but by the wealth of our relationships, health and other less measurable, although highly important, factors. Learn how her experience as a Human Resilience Activator can help you get unstuck from old paradigms of identity surrounding work and surrender to the flow of where life is taking you, all while staying in alignment with your truest self.

Andrea Bazoin is a human resilience activator, which means she works with individuals and teams to identify and dismantle the practical and personal barriers that keep them from thriving in our ever-accelerating future.

Spirit, Song and Sin City with David Villella

The arts have been absolutely decimated by COVID-19, or since “Ms. Corona came to the party”, as Broadway alum David Villella says. David’s long-tenured stint at Vegas! The Show was abruptly paused due to the pandemic with no return date in sight, which is the devastating case for so many artists, technicians and staff whose livelihood is dependent on an industry that relies on people gathering.

In this episode we learn how gratitude is what is keeping David going through these deeply uncertain times, how art is a creative collaboration with spirit and a way to channel the divine through performance, how visioning himself on a Broadway stage with Bernadette Peters came to be, and how the temptations of Sin City became the catalyst to stepping fully into his spiritual life.

Bio: David Villella is from Trenton, New Jersey and graduated from Ithaca College where he studied musical theater. He performed on Broadway in the original cast of the Tony Award winning revival of Annie Get Your Gun starring Bernadette Peters and later, Reba McEntire.

In this episode, learn how Melissa is helping to shift the paradigm of what is considered feminine beauty in society, one woman at a time.

Bio:

Melissa Vlahos specializes in therapeutic arts as a painter, photographer and dancer, trusting in the transformative power of these to heal. She passionately weaves a holistic approach to these and transmutes her personal discoveries by guiding, inspiring and empowering people.

The Garden in Your Belly with Heather Grzych

When Heather Gryzch began graduate school to study Ayurveda, a 5,000-year-old system of medicine from India, her parents thought she was joining a cult - they simply had never had heard of it.

Nonchalant Quantum Leap with Lisseth Wertz

Lisseth Wertz wasn’t particularly attached to the outcome of the transformation she began six years ago but soon discovered that going through it in a state of non-attachment and ease allowed it to flourish naturally. Being in “play” mode allowed her to quickly expand and tap into her gifts as a transformational healer in a much faster timeline than we have been conditioned to believe is possible. She believes you can too - it’s just a matter of deciding how long you want it to take.

In this episode we talk about how the timeline of awakenings has been sped up by the events surrounding the pandemic and the difference between purpose and mission, which many people are activating at this time. Learn how the gifts of her most recent dark night of the soul have helped her step even more fully into her gifts of guiding you to yours.

Lisseth Wertz has guided over 3000 individuals in the art of conscious creation. During her path she founded a collaborative community where people are invited to be and become who they are meant to be, sharing wisdom and visions with what has now become a soul family.

Road to Kickass Recovery with Billy Manas

Recovery from alcohol and drug abuse is an incredibly difficult challenge all on its own, and the addition of the isolation and uncertainty during a pandemic has no doubt exacerbated it. In this episode, Billy Manas, now ten years sober, shares his own journey from near death in the back of an ambulance to building the life of his dreams and provides first-hand knowledge to assist others on the road to maintaining sobriety, especially during these unprecedented times.

In this episode, we discuss how his rock bottom moment led him to, after defining spirituality on his own terms, a working relationship with God and how that, combined with gratitude, helped to save his life. We also discuss the rewards and repercussions of sharing deeply intimate life details in public forums such as his articles on Elephant Journal and his newly released book, Kickass Recovery: FromYour First Year Clean to the Life of Your Dreams.

Billy’s voice comes through with humor and warmth, like a trusted friend who has been there and will give it to you straight. Take a listen to today’s episode to be inspired and reminded that you are not alone.

Billy Manas, author of Kickass Recovery, is a regularly featured columnist for Elephant Journal, a contributor to Good Men Project and The Fix, a published poet, a working musician, a full-time truck driver and a dad to three daughters. His journey from Adderall-chewing, methadone-swilling, pot-smoking maniac to speaker/author with over nine years of sustained recovery is, as is so often the case, fraught with excitement and a few valuable anecdotes. These anecdotes have found their way into his many talks at jails, detoxes, rehabs, and his new “Kickass Recovery” workshop. www.BillyManas.com

A World that Works for Everyone with Marc Allen

In this episode, I have the pleasure of interviewing Author and Co-Founder/CEO of New World Library, Marc Allen. This interview was recorded several weeks ago, but the theme resonates just as authentically today: we are here to love, look out for, and serve each other.

We touch on what it means to be in business as an owner in alignment with purpose, creativity and flow, and how that extends to employees of every level in the company, allowing them to not only to feel valued and heard, but to think like an owner through the model of profit-sharing (and how models such as these can lead to a future of enlightened capitalism over blind capitalism). 

Marc takes us on a journey in how to bring real magic into all areas of our lives through a series of exercises featured in his book, The Magical Path, and treats us to a short, grounding, guided meditation. Learn how looking after our spiritual, mental and emotional wellness is essential to living the life of our dreams and gives us the capacity to envision and take steps towards creating a world that works for everyone. 

Marc Allen is an internationally renowned seminar leader, entrepreneur, author, and composer. He co-founded New World Library (with Shakti Gawain) in 1977 and has guided the company, as president and publisher, from a small start-up to its current position as a major player in the independent publishing world. He has written several books, including The Magical Path, The Greatest Secret of All, The Millionaire Course, Visionary Business, and others.

As a gifted speaker and seminar leader, Marc works with people around the globe to craft lives of lasting abundance and prosperity. His online programs include The Magical Path, Success with Ease, Visionary Business, The Power of the Feminine, and How to Get Happily Published. To learn more about his programs visit www.MarcAllen.com

Life Outside the Broom Closet with Danielle Dulsky

What comes to mind when you hear the word, “witch”? For many, it is loaded with negative connotations that society has impressed upon it for generations. In this interview, author, teacher and witch Danielle Dulsky talks us through her latest book, Seasons of Moon and Flame, and opens the broom closet wide to her spiritual practice of witchcraft. Some see it as a religion, some as an art...she sees it as both.

We discuss the witch wound (trauma passed through generations from the persecution of those revealing their spiritual gifts), and how it to this day still prevents so many of us from fully stepping into our life paths as healers, storytellers and teachers. Danielle reminds us that a life of true authenticity can only be revealed to us once we are able to reveal our own selves fully to the world, as this vulnerability leads us to our greatest strengths.

Bio: Danielle Dulsky is a heathen visionary, pagan poet, and word-witch. The author of Seasons of Moon and Flame, The Holy Wild, and Woman Most Wild, she teaches internationally and has facilitated circles, communal spell-work, and seasonal rituals since 2007. She is the founder of The Hag School and believes in the emerging power of wild collectives, cunning witches, and rebellious artists in healing our ailing world.

The Art of Story and Surrender with Mike Liguori

When Mike received news that he would have to return to Iraq for a third tour, his gut told him that if he went, he wouldn’t come back alive. In this deeply personal episode, we learn how his PTSD diagnosis prevented him from going back and how the realities of post-war societal integration took him down a path of substance abuse, and loss of will to live, which ultimately led him to a deep and true connection with spirit. 

Learn how the values he gained from these life experiences inform the work he creates today through his intent-driven social media and content strategy company, and pick up a few tips on showing up authentically in your own life’s work along the way.

More than My Title, released today, was conceived and written pre-COVID, but is even more relevant due to the current shift in consciousness that is occurring. More and more people are simply becoming aware that the old boxes and systems are no longer working for them, and are looking for ways to exist more fully in this new world. In this episode, you’ll learn how to finally (and authentically) answer the age-old question, “so, what do you do?”.

Love is an Inside Job with Linda Carroll

"Do not lose heart...we were made for these times."  - Clarissa Pinkola Estés

Friends. These times can be brutal. I get it. My heart aches with you. I also see the beauty and gifts that can come of this. I teeter on the brink of both sides daily, but my spiritual practice, and connection with my beloved community, helps bring me back to center.

In lieu of an interview this week, this episode is more of a heart-to-heart from me to you.

This imposed isolation has pulled the rug out from so many, sending them inward in a way they haven't experienced before and bringing up questions never yet considered, activating a wave of spiritual awakenings across the planet. In this episode, I address that and read you a couple of passages that can help give perspective on our current situation: one from one of my greatest teachers, Rebecca Campbell from her book, Rise Sister Rise, as well as the introduction to my book, The ABCs of Awakening: A Dictionary for the Emerging Soul.

Things may feel different than ever before. Don't lose heart. Rock bottom can sometimes unlock the most beautiful, tender and magical parts of ourselves. Feel everything, take nothing for granted.

You're not alone. I'm with you. We are all in this together. 

Who needs a little joy in their life today? I do! Let's tap into the spirit of play (while tapping into spirit as a whole) with my radiant guest Kim Corbin. Kim is the Senior Publicist at New World Library and the creator of iSkip, the home of the world skipping movement.

Kim garnered the attention of national press by being authentically, joyfully herself and brought countless other adults along for the skip. In this episode, we discuss how not every passion and calling has to be how you make your living and how listening to the voice of spirit, over the voice of fear, will steer you right every time.

Bio:

In addition to being a Senior Publicist at the book publisher New World Library, Kim “Skipper” Corbin has been the world’s most vocal advocate for the body, mind, spirit benefits of adult skipping for over 20 years. Her skipping movement has been featured in USA Today, Time, People, and Newsweek Magazines.  Visit her online at http://www.iskip.com.

I've definitely been feeling out of sorts as I'm adjusting to the isolating reality of living in COVID-19 times, and I imagine you may be too. It can be so disorienting to operate outside of the routines of work and to not able to meet in person to create. 

Here is a short guided grounding meditation to help you get back on track, no matter where you are.

As a child, I would prefer to spend the first day of summer not out playing with my friends, but running to the library and leaving with a stack a foot-and-a-half high. It was always a dream to see my own work on those hallowed library shelves, or on sale at the bookstore, and Kyra Schaefer was the person to make it come true for the first time through the compilation book, When I Rise, I Thrive. ⁣ ⁣ Kyra's publishing company, As You Wish, has been a major force in the world, providing opportunities for hundreds of voices to be heard, often for the first time. The common thread between all of the tales of heartache, trauma, hope and triumph is this: the perseverance of the human heart. ⁣ ⁣ I'm so grateful to Kyra for her work, and the books that she will continue to bring into the world. She offered a few of her books in electronic form for free this week as a gift to a reeling community, and she has inspired me to do the same.⁣ ⁣ Starting Saturday, March 21,  I will be offering my book The ABCs of Awakening: A Dictionary for the Emerging Soul for free until March 28th (promo code: BNPHAVEN)⁣. ⁣ Bio: Kyra Schaefer is the founder of the independent publishing company called As You Wish Publishing, a business dedicated to making book publishing accessible for aspiring authors who want to publish solo books and participate in collaborative books. Kyra helps authors get their messages heard to bring hope-filled, real-life stories to the world. Her passion is to debunk the myth that writing is difficult and only available for a lucky chosen few. If you want to share your story with the world and learn about upcoming projects, you can reach Kyra at www.asyouwishpublishing.com 

Whether Coronavirus has touched you directly or not, you have no doubt felt the ripple effect of anxiety, fear and uncertainty. If we can take a few minutes every day for self-care and disconnect from those overwhelming feelings, we will be better equipped to handle this current situation for as long as it may last.

Take a journey through your heart to your inner haven and touch base with the part of you that is eternal, that is loved, cherished and looked after. This particular meditation takes you on a wintry journey to a cozy cabin where you are greeted with the unconditional love and caring that is available to you any time, should you only take a moment to access it. 

There is no wrong way to create, but there is a Bright Way. Creative alchemist, writer, teacher and musician Diana Rowan believes that “creativity is one of the supreme ways to reconnect to our true selves and that creativity is accessible to all.” Her Bright Way system, detailed in her just released book, is an incredible tool to help each of us dive into our gifts and set them free, despite fear and self-doubt.

Her journey from a musical child with crippling performance anxiety to a cultivator of the dreams of others is discussed in this episode. Learn how Diana’s book The Bright Way: Five Steps to Freeing the Creative Within has given the world a beautiful gift that will resonate for years to come.

Diana Rowan is the author of The Bright Way. She is a professional harpist and has performed on six continents. She founded the Bright Knowledge Guild to be able to teach in the digital environment, and she offers students around the world access to her system through an ongoing membership program, several dynamic Facebook communities, and videos. She lives in the San Francisco Bay Area. Find out more about her work at https://www.dianarowan.com/.

Trained psychotherapist and angel channel Corin Grillo, author of New World Library's The Angel Experiment: A 21-Day Magical Adventure to Heal Your Life, acts as a bridge between the divine and earthly realms for her clients all over the world.

Her life changed dramatically when she first began connecting with and "partying with the angels", and this discovery aided in healing her lifelong depression and allowed her to step into her spiritual gifts.

She uses humor and playfulness to help us dive deep into our own connection to the angels and provides guidance on how to recognize the signs that yours are by your side. Learn about her the miracle incident that jumpstarted this journey (and more) in today's episode.

Robin Rorex is committed to being the bridge between the wisdom of spirit and the reality of being human, and she's bringing us along for the ride. The cultural landscape is shifting right now to a place where traditionally feminine qualities are now being more valued in leadership roles in the workplace, and Robin's work as a healer and sister circle facilitator is a beacon to those who are navigating these changing waters. Her commitment to this calling, combined with her twenty-plus years of senior-leadership at Nike, uniquely positions her to be one of the leading voices in this cultural shift. 

Robin is one of the incredible sisters I had the privilege of connecting with at Rebecca Campbell's Rise Sister Rise retreat at Omega Institute, who have not only inspired me with the work that has been activated and put out into the world in the short amount of time since the retreat, but who have reminded me, as Robin puts so beautifully, to make every step I take a walk towards my own heart so that by healing myself, I can better serve the world. 

Robin Rorex: Facilitator. Activator. Healing Storyteller.

I believe the world needs a revolution that calls forward the brave, grounded, wise and compassionate presence of all leaders. I believe it is time for women to RISE, claim their power, show up with their whole hearts and generate a new leadership paradigm. I believe that before we serve others, we must first turn toward our own pain and discomfort, tenderly healing our own hearts.

Robin is the founder of Grace Sisterhood Circles and the chief storyteller for Dirty Bird Diaries, both deep inward-facing experiences designed to open hearts, awaken authenticity and tap into the wisdom of inner-knowing. She is also a Certified Dare to Lead Facilitator TM, a courage-building program based on the research of Dr. Brené Brown. In support of individuals, teams and organizations moving from armored leadership to daring leadership, it is a privilege for her to teach this powerful and transformational work.

Her street and work cred includes two decades of senior-level leadership experience at Nike, growing the business, building the brand and developing future talent. Most recently, she was the President of a Whole Person leadership development company that delivers award-winning behavior change programs inside corporations. Her commitment, in all the work she does, is to normalize our shared humanity, liberate love and create brave spaces where we can all show up and be seen.

When she’s not doing her own work to become the person she came her to be, you can find her loving on her four-legged babies, renovating mid-century modern homes with her wife in Palm Springs or singing Johnny Cash songs at the top of her lungs. You can find out more about Robin by signing up for Dirty Bird Diaries and check out Grace at https://www.i-am-grace.com/

Lisa Sessions’ career path, which includes engineering and the military, brought her no shortage of experience in being one of the only women in the room.

It can be deeply challenging to find the silver lining among unexpected, life-altering experiences, but that’s exactly what Carlyn Shaw had to do in order to get by.    An MS diagnosis and the death of two best friends in short succession sent Carlyn on a path of awakening that has spanned decades.    Find out how challenging lows, like knocking out her two front teeth, led to astonishing highs, such as Brene Brown re-Tweeting her blog post about the experience, shaped the course of her life, leading her on a mission to turn strangers to friends via the power of discovery through storytelling.   

Based on her own transformation, from a 19-year old diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis, who lost 2 best friends in separate car accidents, to becoming a fearless optimist who turns strangers into friends, Carlyn Shaw is a testament to the words, “Life doesn’t happen to you, but rather, for you.  

Teri’s TEDx talk about recovering from addiction spotlighted the process of overcoming alcoholism. In this deeply personal interview, she dives deeper into her own story, bravely and vulnerably sharing how her life changed the moment she realized she had nothing left to lose.

  Grief has a way of changing people, sometimes opening gates to unexpected and previously unimaginable experiences. The veil between this world and the world of spirit dropped dramatically for Dana Parker in this way just a few short years ago.   Dana is a spiritual coach, energy healer, author and the Founder of the Sacred Sister Soul Circles. She discovered her psychic abilities after the devastating loss of a dear friend, and that catalyst changed the trajectory of her life forever.    Find out more about her journey in today’s episode.
