EP 256. Raj Jana- October Reflection: Surrendering To A Vision Bigger Than You

by

“Your intimate relationship is the most profound mirror for you to actually connect to that foundation of love within yourself.”

The last time I recorded a reflection episode was at the end of August – just after returning from Burning Man. As an experiment, I decided to wait a couple of months before publicly reflecting again. It’s been interesting to see the arc of change over a two-month window – proof that many shifts can happen when you move through life consciously and with vulnerability and authenticity. 

I often remind myself that I’m the common denominator in all areas of my life. How I show up in one context impacts how I show up in others. In this episode, you’ll hear how I’ve used my relationship and creativity as dojos – places to practice peeling off masks and connecting more intimately with the authentic me. I’ve also been exploring the power of surrendering to a vision bigger than myself – a practice vastly different from how I used to operate in business. These intentions became catalysts for a lot of growth, as you’ll hear in the episode. 

As always, I hope that this episode will inspire a practice of reflection in your life. Reflection can be a superpower because the more we know our authentic selves, the more we can navigate fear, manage adversity, regulate our nervous system and step into the greatest forms of love we were born to express.

Key takeaways:

  • Learning to show up imperfectly. 
  • Overcoming my fear of being seen to fail. 
  • Speaking on the same stage as Dr. Joe Dispenza. 
  • Creating from a place of collaboration over competition. 
  • Turning away from ME projects into WE projects. 
  • Leveraging vulnerability as a tool for healing 
  • Humans are inherently good
  • Having the courage to take off your mask. 
  • The desire to know who you really are.

EP 255. Andrew Kroeze: Intentional Rituals For Sustaining Energy

by

“I master my fate and captain my soul… I need to take radical responsibility for my life. I can create anything that I want out of my life.”

Like many entrepreneurs, Andrew Kroeze achieved massive success through the hustle-and-grind culture only to find the tactic wasn’t sustainable. 

After experiencing burnout, Andrew had no choice but to reinvent himself. But the changes didn’t fully stick. The next time he crashed, Andrew woke up in a hospital bed. This time, Andrew knew he needed to make more permanent changes to his life and business. He craved something simpler, so he sold his company, retreated to an ashram, and reset his nervous system. 

Through this experience, Andrew decided to become a “master of his fate.” In practice, this looked like embedding energy rituals, systems, and habits into his routine so he could alchemize time into the life his soul wanted. 

Andrew’s willingness to hold himself accountable to his life blueprint inspires me. The degree of ownership Andrew commands over his psychological & physiological state is a potent reminder of the creative power of discipline when it’s harnessed in the direction of alignment and authenticity. 

In his work, Andrew is committed to sharing his secrets of success with others. Through his Masters of Fate brotherhood, Andrew empowers men to master themselves first and then business.

Key takeaways:

  • How entrepreneurship can be a catalyst for a spiritual journey. 
  • Retreating to a monastery to reset my nervous system. 
  • Letting go of deeply rooted core beliefs that don’t serve. 
  • Intentional rituals for sustaining energy. 
  • Developing processes as an accountability tool. 
  • Using time blocking to design his calendar.
  • Planning hacks for designing your life. 
  • Using pre-commitments to establish helpful habits.

EP 254. Jayson Gaignard: The Impact of Leading with Vulnerability

by

“Vulnerability to me is an expensive gift, and you shouldn’t expect it from cheap people.”

“I mean, the quality of your life comes down to the quality of relationships. If you want good quality relationships, you have to be able to embrace vulnerability and that uncertainty sometimes.”

Jayson Gaignard is a rare breed of entrepreneurial leader because of his willingness to be visible when vulnerable. The old way to succeed was to wear a mask and pretend to have it all figured out. Jayson challenges that paradigm and proves how being vulnerable with others about your struggles, hardships, and even failures can lead to greater levels of impact in a world hungry for connection & belonging.  

Named one of Forbes’s “Top Networkers to Watch” because of his ability to curate highly coveted events, Jayson is the founder of Mastermind Talks – an exclusive community that serves as a container of support, inspiration, and deep belonging for entrepreneurs who value impact and collaboration alongside business. Jayson has been featured in the likes of Entrepreneur, Lifehacker, and Tim Ferriss’s Tools of Titans. 

Jayson believes entrepreneurs are “community made” rather than self-made. But what does it take to be a person who can guide, support, and empower others? In this episode, Jayson discusses some of the teachers who have taught him on his journey. Teachers include his daughter, who Jayson explains pulls him into his highest expression, as well as the power of vulnerability to encourage self-love and celebrate your unique beauty while honoring others. 

Jayson is a man who cares deeply about people and the land while doing his best. As you’ll hear in this episode, when people are mission-driven, they can sometimes be clouded in doubt. This conversation is a beautiful example of what’s possible when you leverage community and vulnerability as mirrors for your highest expression. 

Key takeaways:

  • The quality of your relationships is indicative of the quality of your leadership. 
  • How tormentors can become mentors. 
  • Exploring the mirrors of your relationships. 
  • An artist who uses business as a canvas. 
  • Leveraging empathy as an edge. 
  • Finding purpose. 
  • Reclaiming the freedom we lost. 
  • How Jayson models self-love to his daughter. 
  • The pattern of being hard on yourself. 
  • Allowing yourself to know you are enough and you’ve done enough. 
  • The art of shifting from DOing to BEing. 
  • And more…

EP 250. Raj Jana: My Eight Year Journey To Self Love & Liberation

by

“Even though on paper I had all the markings of someone successful, I didn’t feel it. That really confused me.”

As a 250th episode special, I wanted to share all the lessons I’ve learned from investing multi-six figures and thousands of hours into my personal journey to create a life of alignment and liberation that I feel so grateful to be living today.

When I started this podcast, I had no idea about the journey I was about to take. The journey to internal liberation isn’t easy. My life has changed entirely since releasing my first episode in 2017, but the path to this point has been riddled with the most extreme highs and lows.

The game of BEING is confusing because it’s filled with guesswork, detours, and setbacks.

But hindsight brings clarity.

As I reflect over the past eight years (and the thousands of dollars and hours I invested), I’m clear on what worked and what didn’t. I’m now confident about what levers to pull and where to focus my time, energy, and resources so I can keep experiencing unshakeable confidence, freedom, clarity, and self-love.

No one should have to invest as much as I have into healing our minds, bodies, and souls in order to experience wholeness. I believe it’s our birthright to feel good about who we are. We shouldn’t be living in a constant state of anxiety or fear. We should be learning how our nervous systems are wired from an early age so we can properly tend to it as we grow through life. It’s why I’ve decided to share my journey so far with you — with no stones left unturned – so that you can see how a dedication to the “inner work” can lead to permanent shifts in your mental & emotional well-being.

Key takeaways:

  • How a book transformed my perspective of what’s possible.
  • My quest to seek missing feelings through entrepreneurship – only to fall short of what I wanted.
  • How a drive to infuse meaning & purpose into my side hustle birthed Stay Grounded.
  • Forcing change through the game of DOing.
  • External success will only take you so far. You’ll eventually hit a wall.
  • Opening to my emotions through plant medicine. Breaking open to build myself up.
  • Discovering what’s under the hood. Moving into the realm of root cause exploration.
  • Differentiating between MY vision for my life and the vision that others had for my life.
  • Unlocking mirror work through community-based healing. My Journey groups.
  • Working with hypnotherapist Grace Smith.
  • Ending a nine-year relationship and confronting uncomfortable truths about myself.
  • Inner work has the answers, but it’s hard, expensive, and time-consuming.
  • Inner work shouldn’t be for the privileged few with resources. It should be accessible and effective for EVERYONE. And that’s what I’m excited to share with you all.

On October 5th, I will be doing a teaching a live masterclass about a data-driven, heart-centered, and personalized approach to the inner work that removes confusion from the process altogether. Please visit www.rajjana.com/masterclass to join!

EP 249. Trey & Grace Stinnett: Finding Flow Through Conscious Parenting

by

“So much of our desires are culturally programmed desires. If I can begin to understand who I am, then I can begin to stop doing the things that are not for me and are not me. ”

Trey and Grace Stinnett are the founders of the Academy of Conscious Entrepreneurs – an organization that helps people grow a company without sacrificing time at home by aligning business with personal flow. Informed by mental models and personality profiles such as Wealth Dynamics and Human Design, Trey and Grace empower clients to elevate their consciousness at home and work. 

What I loved most about this episode was hearing how Trey and Grace have integrated their work into all aspects of their live, creating a path for conscious living. These philosophies have informed their parenting, too, empowering their children onto the path of authentic, self-aware living from a young age. 

Creating a life of flow and alignment can be part of our legacy, and in this episode, Trey & Grace share how to make that vision a reality. 

Key takeaways:

  • What does flow mean?

EP 248. Raj Jana- August Reflection: Burning Man – The Frequency Of Liberation

by

“Infinite possibility lives in the unknown. Can I trust the frequency of truth and presence over the ego hits that my mind is craving?”

I’m just back from my first ever Burning Man experience, and it was life-changing. In this month’s reflection episode, I share the raw integrations and lessons from my time in Black Rock City. 

Stepping out of the constraints and conditions of everyday life into an environment with zero judgment and radical inclusion, driven by a gifting economy, was wildly transformative. For the first time in my life, I got to experience the frequency of liberation — where I could feel the infinite possibilities of the human spirit and potential. 

Burning Man allowed me to experience a life that side-steps the ego and follows the calling of the heart. In the infinite expanse of the desert landscape, I felt safe to calibrate to the speed of my soul. 

There’s so much to talk about and reveal. I’m grateful to have Georgina El Morshdy with me to guide the conversation.

Key takeaways:

  • My raw integrations and lessons from Burning Man. 
  • What is Burning Man in a nutshell (in case you haven’t heard of it). 
  • The possibilities for living inside a judgement-free space. 
  • How a new environment can change your life – radically. 
  • Side-stepping ego and allowing intuition to guide my decisions and experiences. 
  • The power of a gifting economy. 
  • Burning the man and the temples. 
  • Burning my perfectionist tendencies to experience liberation. 
  • Owning my soul gifts. 
  • How to integrate profound shifts so they remain a permanent part of who you be and do. 
  • Tapping into energetic frequencies as a gateway for creation.
