Enlightenment Requires Fear
"If I seek peace, I must embrace my fears." What has fear robbed you of? Are you a reluctant sage? Did you know that fear can pave the way to enlightenment? We're taught to avoid our fears, but often our fears represent the cosmic lessons we're meant to learn during our human incarnation—and just like a parking ticket, you better pay that bill, or else your fear-based spiritual lesson will come back and slap you twice as hard, henny! Don't let fear be a distraction from doing the real work on your own hero's journey. Beginning with a metaphor about Juan's brief stint as a blonde, Charise & Juan-Juan begin a conversation about how we navigate the path to enlightenment—and why fear is a requirement.

Who Are You Without Your Addictive Behaviors?
In this episode, Sister Charise & Juan-Juan are exploring the concept of time (otherwise known as "tiiiiiiiiime," per Charise's story) and how we use and abuse it. When we feel like time is escaping us, we panic to make dreams come true immediately: hence Charise's daily addiction to Zillow.com and Juan's addiction to finding new jobs. Where do our addictive habits come from, and how do we manage them in a healthy way? We also explore 5 stages of addiction-based change that frame our relationship with any addiction: food, people, vices, or anything that keeps you up at night!

The Perfect Relationship in Hell
Does the pain in your relationship make you feel like you're living in hell? Or have you been in a relationship that ended because you and your partner just couldn't surrender to the truth? Today, Sister Charise and Juan-Juan explore concepts from Don Miguel Ruiz's "The Mastery of Love": the idea of an unconditionally loving relationship, the toxicity of control and perfection, and how we attract people who aren't good for us. Turn that finger around and take a look in the mirror, honey: when we say, "It's not me; it's you," the wise of us know that it's really both of us.
