We've all felt it; that moment when we're overcome by the beauty of a moment. Maybe it's in the vastness of nature or maybe at the birth of a child. The joy crashes in and envelopes us. But what about the small joys and beauty found in the moment? Are you able to let those in?

In this episode I talk about how to be more open to the beauty of the moment -and how to make joy a daily practice.

It’s not only their unbelievable stature, nor the color which seems to shift and vary under your eyes, no, they are not like any trees we know, they are ambassadors from another time.” -John Steinbeck

“Not until we are lost do we begin to find ourselves.” – Henry David Thoreau

“When you lose yourself, you find the key to paradise.” – Lyrics from the song Knee Deep by Zac Brown Band

In this episode, I explore how the fear of living, as William James called the "favorite disease of the twentieth century," holds us back from our true potential. I dive into the terror of failure, judgment, and losing joy, using inspiring stories of Harriet Tubman, Frida Kahlo, and Steve Jobs to show how courage breaks these chains. With insights from Carl Jung’s "shadow" and Anaïs Nin’s wisdom on courage, I offer a practical tool to face this fear and expand your life.

“When you’re doing something new, people don’t understand it, and they think you’re crazy. But when it works, suddenly they call you a genius.” -Steve Jobs

“Life shrinks or expands in proportion to one’s courage.” -Anaïs Nin

In this episode I explore how a famous experiment in 1951 reveals the danger of herd mentality and talk about the ways we are being influenced by it today. I dive into the subtle signs of herd mentality—like blind agreement and self-censorship—and how it traps us in comfort over truth, from workplaces to social media. Offering practical steps, I share how curiosity, diverse perspectives, and self-reflection can break free from this mental cage, fostering personal growth and authenticity, with wisdom from Nietzsche, JFK, and Steve Jobs underlining the point.

SHOW NOTES

Quotes:

"Conformity is the jailer of freedom and the enemy of growth." – John F. Kennedy

"The individual has always had to struggle to keep from being overwhelmed by the tribe." – Friedrich Nietzsche

"Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice." – Steve Jobs

In this episode I explore the nature of the soul through Nikola Tesla’s lens of energy, frequency, and vibration. It weaves together ancient wisdom, personal experiences of cosmic connection, modern scientific mysteries like consciousness and near-death experiences, and the laws of physics to ponder if the soul is an eternal spark of energy, vibrating through the universe, never fading but transforming.

SHOW NOTES

Quotes:

“If you want to find the secrets of the universe, think in terms of energy, frequency, and vibration.” -Nikola Tesla

“My brain is only a receiver, in the Universe there is a core from which we obtain knowledge, strength, and inspiration. I have not penetrated into the secrets of this core, but I know that it exists.” -Nikola Tesla

“The day science begins to study non-physical phenomena, it will make more progress in one decade than in all the previous centuries of its existence.” -Nikola Tesla

In this episode, I explore how we often mistake rearranging old beliefs for real thinking, as William James called it “rearranging our prejudices.” I dive into how our tribal instincts keep us stuck, labeling new ideas as exceptions to avoid change. I share simple steps like questioning assumptions, sitting with discomfort, and admitting when we’re wrong to help us grow into a truer, more open version of ourselves.

SHOW NOTES

Quotes:

"Many people think they are thinking when they are merely rearranging their prejudices." -William James

“Life is a process of becoming, a combination of states we have to go through. Where people fail is that they wish to elect a state and remain in it. This is a kind of death.” - Anaïs Nin
