Empowerography

Welcome to Empowerography, the premier podcast platform dedicated to bringing powerful women to an empowered stage. Host, Brad Walsh, having spent his corporate career in the world of A/V technology, felt that there was a greater story waiting. Brad was introduced to the world of Boudoir Photography and he immediately fell in love with the empowering mission and message behind boudoir photography. Being immersed in this world and seeing the life-changing effects it had on women helped to reveal his true calling—creating space for women to see themselves in a light they normally don't get to see themselves in. Brad realized this work was his life's purpose, so he left my AV tech career to pursue boudoir photography full-time. Witnessing the incredible transformations in his clients confirmed he had found his purpose. Two years later, while working as a women's empowerment photographer, Brad had another epiphany: I need to broaden my impact by creating a podcast. When Covid-19 hit in March 2020 rendering Brads business in-operable, he saw an opportunity to be a voice of hope and positivity amidst global fear and negativity and Empowerography was born. Brad's podcast is a platform whose purpose is to Empower. Elevate and Educate by amplifying the voices of women. Empowerography's mission is to Empower, Elevate, and Educate, showcasing real-life stories of courage, transformation, and inspiration from extraordinary women around the world. Each episode dives deep into the personal and professional journeys of our guests, uncovering the trials they've overcome, the successes they've achieved, and the invaluable lessons they've learned along the way. Join us as we amplify the voices of women, providing a space where their stories can inspire, motivate, and empower listeners to pursue their own dreams and aspirations. Whether you're looking for inspiration, guidance, or simply a boost of empowerment, Empowerography is here to elevate your spirit and educate your mind. Tune in and let the transformative stories of these incredible women change your perspective and ignite your passion for making a difference.

  4. Exploring Synesthesia and Spirituality in Art with Intuitive Painter Heather Eck

    MAR 31

    Exploring Synesthesia and Spirituality in Art with Intuitive Painter Heather Eck

    My guest today is Heather Eck. Heather Eck is a multimedia abstract artist and writer. An intuitive artist and painter, Heather interprets people, places, and experiences through color, a condition known as synesthesia. Like an enormous box of crayons, her gift operates by categorizing through intricate but specific shades of color. While this condition enables her to experience color, she responds to these encounters with people, things, emotions, and spaces by understanding the particular shade of experience that a person dwells in. She uses her gift to detect the most healing color for them to remedy their wounds. Guided by the chakra system and inspired by spirituality and the mysteries of the universe, Heather transforms these vibrant energies into captivating paintings that uplift, inspire and, ultimately, heal. Each canvas becomes a symphony of color and emotion, a visual representation of the unseen connections that weave through our lives. Heather's work is more than art; it's a medium of healing, a testament to the profound influence of color on our well-being. In this episode we discuss synesthesia, art, intuition, healing, self-discovery and spirituality. Website - https://www.heathereck.com IG - https://www.instagram.com/heathereckartist FB - https://www.facebook.com/heathereckartist YouTube - www.youtube.com/@heathereckartist LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/heathereck/ Special Show Offer - https://www.heathereck.com/thankyou In this episode you will learn: 1. What synesthesia is and how it influences her creative process. 2. Why it's important to let go of perfection and how embracing imperfection can lead to authenticity. 3. How art can serve as a tool for empowerment and social change in the world.   “There are two, I think, definitions of intuitive artists. One is some people, when they're painting a landscape or painting something representational, will plan out what it looks like and be methodical about that approach. Some intuitive artists, though, will approach a canvas without any plan at all and just let their intuition kind of guide them.” - 00:02:49 “Synesthesia is kind of the easiest way to define it is when your senses get crossed in your brain. And so if I smell something in my mind, I see it as a color and a shape." 00:34:49 “You are all beautiful and wonderful people. Don't let what anybody says about you prevent you from being your most authentic self. You are here to do incredible, wonderful, big things that you cannot even possibly imagine.” 00:49:19 🎙️ You’ve got a story to share, a message to inspire, and a passion ready to ignite—but where do you start?

The roles that self-awareness and introspection play in transformation. 2. Some simple ways to practice mindfulness. 3. How spiritual healing contributes to societal well-being.   “For me, transformation is a journey that we actually take almost every day. It's not a destination that we reach. It's not when we're going to have these things. It is actually transforming today, because in the end, it's all about today.” - 00:07:31 “I think the easiest one is meditation. Meditation and journaling should be like, okay, they're easy. Even if you don't do it daily, if you do it three times a week, it's better than not doing it at all." 00:36:46 “You just need to do your part but please do your part and you let the other part of the divine universe divine intelligence creator.” 00:54:57 🎙️ You’ve got a story to share, a message to inspire, and a passion ready to ignite—but where do you start?

Tami Reed is a mom to two incredible teenage boys, wife to a man who has loved her through all of her growth, and a guardian to three fur babies that have stolen the heart of their home. She is an Idaho native who grew up in a small farming community, called Cambridge. Growing up, she was 1 of 4 girls and “the boy” of the group, yet very shy, sensitive and intuitive. She often felt like she didn’t 'belong'. Life felt awkward and at just 14 years of age she was gifted with her first awakening moment, which afforded itself as the beginning of her spiritual journey within. She is a 2002 Biology graduate from Boise State University. In 2004 after her first son was born, she created a successful Home Decor business. For many years she traveled the northwest setting up boutiques at art shows. After her career as a traveling professional artist was forced to an end in 2020, she found herself in another pivotal moment. This experience was another catalyst along her spiritual journey where she found new gifts emerge within herself. Today, through the gift of Quantum Human Design™ and The Harken Method™, she shows others how uniquely different they were designed to BE. She helps people understand their own energy and gifts as well as how to cleanse and clear their bio-fields. In this episode we discuss quantum human design, energy work, intuition and self-acceptance.

And in fact, you stop needing things from other people. You don't need them to be any specific way because you've tapped into your own inner fountain of love." 00:34:36 “Love has the power to transform and has the power to transform an enemy into a friend and that it is the solution that we're looking for if we have the courage to do it.” 01:25:46 🎙️ You’ve got a story to share, a message to inspire, and a passion ready to ignite—but where do you start?

    Exposing the Lies: The Hidden Truth Behind Hurricane Katrina with Sandy Rosenthal

    My guest today is Sandy Rosenthal. After the near-destruction of New Orleans in 2005 while most were satisfied with the official narrative of "natural disaster", Sandy Rosenthal believed there was more to the story. It turned out there was. Rosenthal led an investigative team via the New Orleans-based group she founded––Levees.org––and discovered the real cause of the devastation: Faulty engineering which resulted in the death of at nearly 1,400 and $200 billion in property damage and business losses, not "Mother Nature." In a classic tale of "first they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win", the Levees.org team succeeded not only in exposing the details of the failure, but also uncovering a multi-million dollar smear campaign––against the people of New Orleans, Levees.org and Sandy herself––funded with U.S. taxpayer dollars. By 2015, the news media, which had upheld the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' version of events, finally capitulated, and major news outlets like the Associated Press, New York Times and the BBC, officially changed their version of events to reflect the reality. Rosenthal's book "Words Whispered in Water" which documents this story is her first book. Levees.org exists to make sure the U.S Army Corps of Engineers is held accountable in New Orleans and throughout the U.S. where the lives and property of 201 million Americans depend on the integrity of their levees.. In this episode we discuss Hurricane Katrina, advocacy work, government failures and injustices.

Change is possible when you stand up for and fight for what you believe in. 2.What the power and impact of truth is. 3. The importance of activism and how it can mobilize a community.   “We were being blamed. The victims of this horrific flooding, this was no minor disaster. This was a bona fide catastrophe. Nearly 1,400 people died within a few hours.” - 00:04:38 “Right after the flooding of New Orleans, I had a lot of reporters and journalists call me or email me and ask me, Okay, talk to me about how the poorer communities, the marginalized communities, talk to me about how their levies weren't as good as the wealthy people." 00:33:25 “Don't be afraid. Don't worry that someone might not like what you're saying, because if it's not one person, it'd just be somebody else.” 00:58:23 🎙️ You’ve got a story to share, a message to inspire, and a passion ready to ignite—but where do you start?

About

Welcome to Empowerography, the premier podcast platform dedicated to bringing powerful women to an empowered stage. Host, Brad Walsh, having spent his corporate career in the world of A/V technology, felt that there was a greater story waiting. Brad was introduced to the world of Boudoir Photography and he immediately fell in love with the empowering mission and message behind boudoir photography. Being immersed in this world and seeing the life-changing effects it had on women helped to reveal his true calling—creating space for women to see themselves in a light they normally don't get to see themselves in. Brad realized this work was his life's purpose, so he left my AV tech career to pursue boudoir photography full-time. Witnessing the incredible transformations in his clients confirmed he had found his purpose. Two years later, while working as a women's empowerment photographer, Brad had another epiphany: I need to broaden my impact by creating a podcast. When Covid-19 hit in March 2020 rendering Brads business in-operable, he saw an opportunity to be a voice of hope and positivity amidst global fear and negativity and Empowerography was born. Brad's podcast is a platform whose purpose is to Empower. Elevate and Educate by amplifying the voices of women. Empowerography's mission is to Empower, Elevate, and Educate, showcasing real-life stories of courage, transformation, and inspiration from extraordinary women around the world. Each episode dives deep into the personal and professional journeys of our guests, uncovering the trials they've overcome, the successes they've achieved, and the invaluable lessons they've learned along the way. Join us as we amplify the voices of women, providing a space where their stories can inspire, motivate, and empower listeners to pursue their own dreams and aspirations. Whether you're looking for inspiration, guidance, or simply a boost of empowerment, Empowerography is here to elevate your spirit and educate your mind. Tune in and let the transformative stories of these incredible women change your perspective and ignite your passion for making a difference.
