In this illuminating episode of Gateways to Awakening, host Yasmeen Turayhi speaks with Marcie Anderson, a spiritual teacher, published author, and Sai Shakti healer with over 25 years of study in the ancient science of consciousness.

After spending a decade in India under the direct guidance of Sri Kaleshwar, where she earned her PhD in Soul Doctorism, Marcie shares the sacred knowledge of the Holy Womb Chakra — an ancient spiritual system that awakens the creative power within every soul.

Together, Yasmeen and Marcie explore:

✨ What the Holy Womb Chakra truly is — and how it serves as the source of divine creation

✨ The mantras and yantras (sacred sounds and geometries) that purify karma and open the channels of creation

✨ How healing the womb can dissolve ancestral patterns, clear past relationships, and call in soul-aligned love

✨ Conscious conception rituals that invite high vibrational souls to incarnate

✨ How silence, elemental decharging, and devotion restore spiritual sovereignty

This conversation bridges ancient Eastern wisdom with modern spiritual practice, guiding listeners to reconnect with their Divine Mother energy, embody wholeness, and awaken the sacred creative essence within.

Hey Friends,

This episode was spectacular. In this episode of Gateways to Awakening, I sit down with Jennifer Hough, best-selling author of UNSTUCK and founder of The Wide Awakening, to explore what it means to become a “cosmic instigator”, someone who catalyzes quantum leaps in love, business, and consciousness.

Jennifer unpacks the science and spirit of holographic seeing, describing how we can perceive reality beyond linear time, and how thriving—not surviving—becomes the entry point to expanded awareness.

“You can’t imagine something that doesn’t already exist. Imagination is simply the door to a parallel reality that’s waiting for you to step into it.” -Jennifer Hough

We talk about the following and so much more:

• What it really means to “quantum jump” into a parallel reality

• Why paradigm shifts can rewrite hundreds of beliefs at once

• How resistance is simply feedback guiding us toward flow

• The role of biology in attuning to new dimensions of being

• The illusion of control — and how to partner with universal intelligence instead

On this episode of Gateways to Awakening, I speak with Ryel Kestano, the co-founder of ART "The Art of Authentic Relating" International and Kora, a new dating and relationship app rooted in the principles of authentic relating.

Ryel is also the author of the beautiful and practical book Authentic Relating: A Guide to Rich, Meaningful, Nourishing Relationships, and a pioneer in bringing the tools of authentic communication to individuals, couples, and even inmates through his nonprofit, The Realness Project.

“You are worthy of connection exactly as you are. You don’t have to filter or contrive a version of yourself to be loved.” - Ryel Kestano You can listen to the entire conversation here.
In this conversation, we explore:
- What authentic relating actually means—and how it’s not just about being honest
- The three levels of conversation and why most of us stay stuck in the first two
- How to meet people where they are without collapsing our truth
- The five foundational practices of authentic relating, including “welcome everything” and “own your experience”
- Why relational presence is the portal to deep intimacy
- How the Kora app is reimagining dating through meaningful, values-based connection
- And how slowing down, listening, and being seen without performance can transform the way we relate—not only to others, but to ourselves
If you're craving deeper connection, clearer communication, or a new way of approaching relationships—this episode is for you.

In this powerful and delightfully unpredictable episode of Gateways to Awakening, Yasmeen Turayhi sits down with filmmaker, writer, and creative provocateur Bobby Kennedy III, son of RFK, to explore one of the most wide-ranging conversations in our show’s history spanning politics, spirituality, satire, lucid dreaming, hidden narratives, and his new book The Confessions of Anthony Fauci.

From the moment the episode begins (and yes, includes a hilarious “restart” moment due to a bio mix-up), Bobby opens the door to a candid and unfiltered dialogue.

“You can’t wake up a society without first waking up your own shadow. Satire just gives the medicine a taste people can actually swallow.” - Bobby Kennedy III

We explore:

• How humor and satire can cut through propaganda and awaken consciousness

• Why American identity is shaped by myths, secrecy, and selective storytelling

• His family’s legacy — and the emotional, spiritual weight of growing up amid unresolved truths

• Bobby’s lifelong practice of lucid dreaming and how it became a gateway into healing, exploration, and contacting deeper realms of the psyche

• A behind-the-scenes look at his film “Fear and Loathing in Aspen” and the experiment in “backlash politics”

• The inspiration behind his new satirical book, The Confessions of Anthony Fauci — a fictionalized “tell-all” written in Fauci’s own voice

• How power, secrecy, and belief systems shape public health and public narrative

• A candid discussion on the metaphysical, occult, and psychological forces that may influence modern systems

Why Bobby remains hopeful — and how he believes humanity can cross a threshold into unity and consciousness

His call to action for listeners: Talk to someone you disagree with. Build bridges. Start small. Start human.

Dear Friends, I took so many notes during this conversation! In this illuminating episode of Gateways to Awakening, host I speak with Candice Covington, author of Essential Oils in Spiritual Practice and Vibrational Nutrition and her latest book, Floral Absolutes: Aromatic Healing for the Physical, Emotional, and Energy Body, about the living intelligence of the plant world — and how food, scent, and essence each carry unique energetic signatures that can shape our consciousness.

Drawing from her background in Ayurveda, aromatherapy, and energy medicine, Candice reveals how every plant, from okra to rose, raspberry to pomegranate, holds a vibrational pattern that mirrors aspects of the human soul. She explains how subtle energies from plants can help us restore emotional balance, clear karmic imprints, protect our energetic boundaries, and even catalyze creativity and heart awakening. Whether you’re new to the language of subtle energy or already working with essential oils and vibrational healing, this conversation will remind you that plants are living blueprints of the divine reflections of our own multidimensional intelligence.

We talk about the following and more:

1) The connection between vibrational nutrition, flower and food energetics, and archetypal forces in nature — showing how plants are not passive resources, but conscious allies in our evolution.

2) Why certain foods call to you at specific moments, how to select oils for emotional healing and protection, and how the act of eating, anointing, or smelling becomes a sacred dialogue with life itself.

3) Tangible guidance for empaths, creatives, and anyone seeking to reclaim their vitality and inner sovereignty through plant consciousness.

In this episode of Gateways to Awakening, Yasmeen Turayhi sits down with Judith Corvin Blackburn, award-winning author, transpersonal psychotherapist, shamanic minister, and internationally known teacher, to explore what it means to live as a multidimensional being in our rapidly shifting world.

Drawing from her books Empowering the Spirit and The 6th Dimension: The Ascension Journey, Judith shares how humanity is evolving from third-dimensional consciousness into fifth and sixth-dimensional awareness realms defined by unconditional love, unity consciousness, and creative co-creation.

We discuss the following:

• What 5D and 6D consciousness actually mean and how to access these states in daily life.

• How the “world of forms” (6D) operates as a quantum blueprint — where thoughts, emotions, and intentions take shape before materializing in 3D reality.

• Why many of us are experiencing time differently and how to consciously collapse timelines through awareness and emotional clearing.

• The role of trauma, the emotional body, and DNA activation in awakening our higher potential.

• How to release polarity thinking, embody unity consciousness, and become a conscious creator of your life.
  

Judith offers grounded wisdom from five decades of teaching and psychotherapy, bridging quantum science, spirituality, and psychology to help us navigate the global ascension process with compassion and clarity.

Tune in to remember your multidimensional nature, reconnect with your heart, and begin co-creating from the higher frequencies of love, awareness, and form.

In this illuminating episode of Gateways to Awakening, I speak with Dr. Mitch Abrams, a clinical psychologist, anger management expert, and author of Anger Management in Sport: Understanding and Controlling Violence in Athletes AND his latest book, "I'm Not F*cking Angry! Adjust the Flame to Get What You Want and Need".

Together, we explore the deeper layers of anger — what it really is, how it operates beneath the surface, and how we can transform it from a destructive force into a source of strength, clarity, and emotional intelligence.

“If I can provoke you, I can control you.” - Mitch Abrams

Dr. Abrams shares practical tools to help us recognize anger before it turns toxic — from breathwork and visualization to cognitive awareness and strategic pause. He discusses how anger often hides loneliness, misunderstanding, or self-judgment, and why learning to “adjust the flame” can restore our sense of control and power.

We also dive into:

• How to identify your emotional triggers before they take over

• The subtle differences in how anger shows up in men and wome

• How relationships mirror our insecurities and reveal our work

• The psychology behind reactivity — and how to choose calm over chaos

• Why true confidence requires humility, and how self-efficacy builds resilience
  

This episode is an invitation to become less reactive and more rooted — to reclaim your energy, practice emotional mastery, and reconnect with your higher intelligence, even in moments of fire.

What does it mean to be a man in today’s world, not just competent, but conscious? Not just present, but truly accountable to life?

In this bold and intimate conversation, I sit down with Max Trombly, a powerhouse men’s coach and modern voice of masculine reclamation. We explore what real masculine leadership looks like, not as dominance or performance, but as stewardship, emotional clarity, and fierce devotion to truth, love, and legacy.

“To be a man is to steward. Anything short of that, and you're just feeding off of other people, which is essentially just a boy feeding from the existential mother.” - Max Trombly

We talk about:

✅ Why men are afraid to be fully seen and what happens when they are

✅ The difference between boys seeking mothering and men stewarding life

✅ Triggers, trauma, and how to build emotional agility in real time

✅ Polyamory, intimacy, and the power of choosing one woman deeply

✅ The lost art of stillness — and how embodiment is the foundation of leadership

✅ What it means to create a home, not just a household

✅ Vision, vitality, and rebuilding partnership after the “primary story” ends

✅ How men heal best in the presence of other men … and how freedom comes not from avoidance, but from devotion

Whether you're partnered or single, masculine or feminine, curious or skeptical, this conversation touches the nerve of what so many people are feeling in this cultural moment: the hunger for real connection, real leadership, and real love.
