EP 241. Jetta Blaine: Answering The Call To Do The Inner Work

by

“Resistance is a doorway and on the other side of that doorway can be a lot of power.”

It was such a joy to meet Jetta Blaine at the Feast It Forward Festival. Jetta is a lifestyle integration coach that specializes in using the plant medicine Kambo to facilitate shadow work, catharsis, and rapid transformation. Jetta has a gift for holding space for medicine journeys that guide people to a place of deep healing and purging. 

I have been wanting to bring on more experts to discuss plant medicines on the show for some time now. In my experience, plant medicines and substances are incredible tools for expanding consciousness and revealing aspects of our inner world that we can’t see. 

Although I have never personally tried Kambo, I’m very inspired to learn about different types of substances and rituals for healing & transformation. I was very grateful for the unexpected opportunity to learn about a new healing modality with someone so experienced and skilled with the medicine.

Tune in now to hear Jetta, and I explore topics that include: 

  • Defining the word wholeness. 
  • The courage to embrace hard conversations. 
  • The moment Jetta took responsibility for her life. 
  • What does it mean to bypass? 
  • How toxic positivity can prevent us from doing the work. 
  • The power of getting the right support for your inner work journey. 
  • Inspiring the courage to go within.
  • How to know you’re ready for a medicine journey, and how do you decide what to take. 
  • Defining somatics and building a relationship with your body. 
  • Jetta’s journey back to optimum health. 
  • The one-way ticket to India. 
  • And more…

In this episode, Jetta shares the story that guided her to explore and then practice different healing modalities. This conversation is a reminder that there are many ways to heal. We get to find the modalities that work best for our needs and desires. In the process, we’re invited to use our own discernment while still having reverence for all healing tools. 

After all, the journey to liberate yourself deserves reverence for all the experiences it leads you through. 

If you’re curious to learn more about plant medicines as a tool for your journey, this episode is for you.

EP 240. Kosha Dillz: Learning To Believe In Yourself

by

“You never want to be the person that accepts your situation and complains when you get there.”

 

It was such a buzz to record this episode live at the Feast it Forward Festival. Kosha Dillz is an improv artist and freestyle rap teacher who performs in the street all over the world. He’s been rapping for over 20 years, and one of his songs, “Cellular Phone” – was featured in a Bud Light Superbowl ad. 

Kosha Dillz has a special gift for freestyle. As an artist, he can rap about anything and everything (as you’ll hear at the end of the episode). Through his artistry, he dreams of uniting various groups of people for the better. 

Kosha Dillz’s story is one of hustle, determination, humility, and inspiration. It’s a tale of NEVER giving up. 

As you’ll hear in the episode, it takes a particular sort of courage to be able to freestyle. Kosha Dillz shares with us the pressure of having to wow the crowd within 30 seconds to keep them hooked. In this episode, we talk a lot about the art of being comfortable with being uncomfortable and how the freestyle world inspires you to believe in yourself. 

Here’s a flavor of what we explore together. 

  • How Kosha Dillz got started. 
  • Learning how to create a show that grabs people in. 
  • Cultivating a relationship with fear. 
  • Embracing synchronicities. 
  • Learning to believe in yourself. 
  • Proving yourself to others. 
  • Learning to love yourself. 
  • Sticking with the dream and knowing it’s going to happen.
  • And more…

I love to talk with people who love what they do. This conversation with Kosha Dillz was so creative and so much fun. I can’t wait for you to check it out. Be sure to listen right to the end so you can hear the impromptu rap inspired by our conversation.

EP 239. Raj Jana- June Reflection: Unleashing Your Infinite Creative Potential

by

“This month has been doing the work, having the journeys, experiencing the energetic upleveling, and clearing my own beliefs about myself and the way the world is supposed to be and stepping into my power as a creator.”

 

Welcome to my June reflection. This one’s a big one! Hands down, June 2022 has been one of the most powerful months of growth and evolution I’ve ever experienced in the 4-5 years of my choosing to go inwards. 

This month, I learned to look at my life with radical responsibility for everything that’s showing up – no matter how incredible or challenging. I got to remember that I am the cause of all that I see and that insight gifted me a new lens to look at the world. 

Thanks to powerful healing experiences with gifted mentors and deep conversations with myself, I’ve been able to uplevel in so many ways. I’m grateful for all the mirrors that showed up in June, each of them empowering me to step out of my own way and reclaim the knowing that I am the creator in my life. 

 

 

June turned out to be a massive turning point in my own journey. I learned how much you can grow when you choose to pay attention to the right things. 

As usual, your old friend Georgina El Morshdy is here to hold space and help guide the conversation to ensure you get the most out of it. Here’s an overview of the topics and insights we explored:

  • How Steve Little (a recent guest) inspired my June uplevel. 
  • Learning to play in the realm of energetics. 
  • Deep healing of my entitlement wound. 
  • How I subconsciously create realities I don’t want. 
  • Removing the things that keep me from Creator Mode. 
  • Tools for shifting into empowered states of being. 
  • The power to choose how you feel. 
  • Growing through the power of conscious relationships. 
  • Understanding that my soul chose to experience liberation. 
  • How I integrate the lessons that life is teaching me. 
  • Finding your edge and settling in to play. 
  • And more! 

 

 

I’m so grateful for this podcast and I’m grateful for you. I’m so grateful that you’ve given me this space to share my journey and it lifts my heart to know my sharing is activating and inviting something in you. 

This episode is a reminder of how powerful we all are – even in a challenging world that can leave us feeling unsure and uncertain. When you remember that YOU are the creator in your life, everything changes. I hope this episode reminds you of that.

EP 238. Christian Swain: Discovering Who You Are Through Music

by

“You will find music that will speak to what you are going through at any time in your life.”

 

I recorded this conversation with Christian Swain LIVE at the Feast it Forward Festival. Christian is the founder, producer, and host of the Rock n Roll Archaeology Project. He’s also involved with Pantheon Podcasts. He’s the lead vocalist of Tinman and has been playing with his band for the last 17 years. Christian also describes himself as a political raconteur. As you’ll hear in the show, he has interesting insight on all kinds of topics. It’s one of the things that made this episode so powerful to record.

This episode was a reminder to me that there’s always a thread to be found in a great conversation. It doesn’t matter who I talk to, there’s always a route back to topics that help us remember who we are. Through these conversations, we get to meet life with presence to connect back with what is – allowing the energy of the moment to inspire everything we do and everything we become.

 

 

Christian dives deep in this episode and shares his heart, his wisdom, and his life. We touch on so many topics, from the climate crisis to Christian’s experience of being involved in a mass shooting. At each stage, we return to the influence of music, how it aids belonging, and the power it holds to help you discover who you are.

Tune in now to hear Christian and I explore:

  • How does music feed your soul?
  • Waking up to bigger dimensions of life.
  • PTSD from a mass shooting experience.
  • Learning to move through grief.
  • Discovering who you are through music.
  • Hearing Pink Floyd’s Dark Side of the Moon for the first time.
  • The role forgiveness has played in Christian’s life.
  • Climate crisis.

 

 

Music is a powerful connector. It can bring us together, speak for us when the right words elude us, and activate specific moods to change the way we feel.

There’s music for every occasion, every one of life’s moments, and for every human. Tune in now and soak up a beautiful conversation about discovering who you are through music.

EP 237. Steve Little: Changing The World With A Mantra

by

“You have the power to manifest anything you want, you just have to put it out there. If you can put it out there and feel it as if it’s occurred, it’s on its way, it’s going to happen.”

 

My conversation with Steve Little – AKA “The Activator” was the catalyst for some amplified personal growth this month.

Steve is the CEO and managing partner of Zero Limits Ventures, a M&A advisory, investment banking, and consulting firm. Steve has been an entrepreneur for 45 years. He sold his first business when he was just 15 for $250k. Since then, Steve has architectured 6 nine-figure tech exits and led the M&A teams for 9 tech acquisitions.

Steve is also massively purpose-driven who generously gives his time and money to a wide range of global initiatives including Younglife Africa (which you’ll hear about in the episode).

What I loved most about Steve is the way he integrates energetics into the way he operates in business. Steve reminded me that there are unconscious forces that create our reality every day. As you’ll hear in the episode, Steve takes ownership of his own energetic blueprint by continuously doing the inner work to clear his system of what’s no longer aligned.

 

 

Tune in now to hear Steve and I explore: 

  • Steve’s story of supporting AIDS orphans in Africa.
  • Working with the foremost authority of the Hoʻoponopono ancient Hawaiian healing method.
  • Self-forgiveness.
  • Cleaning up what’s within you.
  • How to create your dream life on a piece of paper.
  • Finding the balance between leaning back & leaning in.
  • Why you need to continue to seek.
  • What Steve does when things aren’t working.
  • The Starbucks story of universal timing.
  • And more…

 

 

I love meeting people who are so bold about the role that energy and spiritual conviction play in creation. In this episode, Steve shares some of the practices that have allowed him to co-create with the universe along with stories that provide proof that the universe is always communicating with you.

Be sure to listen out for the conversation about efforting. It’s towards the end of the episode. It’s one of the most potent things I’ve heard for a while and it’s set me up for a strong month. (I’ll share more in my June reflection episode).

EP 235. Raj Jana- May Reflection: The Power Of Surrendering Your Need For Control

by

“When you’re triggered, how the hell is your triggered mind supposed to understand the wisdom of the universe?”

 

This episode is my May reflection. As usual, some BIG stuff has been moving through me. The constant challenges and up-levels result from choosing to walk my own unique path through life. When you’re looking for the lessons and practicing a lifestyle of awareness, it’s impossible to NOT grow.

But it’s impossible to avoid frustrating setbacks as well! This month, I found myself asking “Why is this happening to me?” 

Do you ever find yourself asking that question? For me, this conversation shows up anytime my life doesn’t match my expectations. For example, when I believe something should have happened faster or when I wish I were further along my path.

In the past, these thoughts would get me in a funk. But because of my steady reflection practice, I know there’s a lesson I need to learn (or an experience I need to have). I’m learning to let go of my own attachments and align with the universe’s timeline rather than my own. After all, just because you received a vision or an idea in a flash doesn’t mean the world is ready for it.

This realization was one of my biggest takeaways from May. I reveal more in this episode.

 

 

As usual, your old friend Georgina El Morshdy is here to hold space and help guide the conversation to ensure you get the most out of it. Here’s an overview of the juicy topics and insights that came up.

  • How, as a society, we’ve normalized the wrong things.
  • Why our individual, reflective work contributes to the evolution of our collective consciousness.
  • The impact of big T and little t traumas on our lives.
  • The mind can’t have all the answers.
  • How we react when things don’t happen as fast as we want them to.
  • Reconnecting with our vision.
  • What it means to live a lifestyle of awareness.
  • Your timeline vs the timeline of the universe.
  • Trusting your aligned path.
  • Efforting vs flowing.
  • And more…

 

 

These monthly reflections are a core element of how I practice a lifestyle of awareness.

Sometimes I come to record these episodes with pages of notes. Other times I have fewer written thoughts but a lot of stuff in the air. Part of staying grounded is my monthly ritual to unpack and process what’s coming up. Sure, there are some months when I don’t feel like sitting down to reflect. I question if it’s the best use of my time. But without exception, I’m always glad I made it a priority because the experience always informs clarity and confidence in a path less traveled.

I hope that by sharing these reflections with you, they inspire you to embark on your own ritual.
