    #010: Why Are They Really Attacking Ukraine? with Tania Andrushko

    Do you believe in coincidence (random occurrences), OR do you see all events as connected to a grander purpose? Truth is, even if you may not yet understand the higher meaning of what has happened, or is currently happening, if we follow our own ancestral threads backwards, we would eventually end up energetically sitting at the feet of our ancestors and re-learning how interconnected all people, places, and events really are. Every culture is rooted in their own indigenous teachings, and this primordial wisdom originates from the relationship that our ancestors held with the sun, the moon, and the earth as their very survival depended upon listening to their rhythms and cues. It doesn't take much to realize that as a human race, we've strayed from our roots and the ripple effect of that has been disastrous on a personal and collective level. However, there are many individuals on this planet who have been feeling the pull back to truth and have been doing the deep work to re-member. And then, there are those who are trying to stop this. But what for? And, what does any of this have to do with the Ukraine? In this podcast, I speak with Emotional Intelligence + Mindset Coach, AND Ukrainian immigrant, Tania Andrushko to learn more about her personal experience growing up rooted deeply into the juxtaposition of being raised by grandparents who were still steeped in the forbidden spiritual practices of the ancients, and her father: a Christian Priest. Tania has recently published a Tarot deck (Flower of the Magic Fern), where she weaves much of traditional Ukrainian spirituality with inspiring lessons, and heart-opening imagery.

    #007: Fallen Leaders with Geha Gonthier

    Some may call it a cult, while others a place of personal freedom and divine cooperation, but who is responsible when things fall apart...particularly at the hands of those in charge? During this provocative conversation with Geha Gonthier, we discuss her time spent inside the infamous Rajneeshpuram in Oregon with spiritual Guru, Osho, as well as her decision to move to Edmonton, Canada after meeting another community leader by the name of John de Ruiter. Both leaders have fallen under legal charges pressed against them by fellow community members as well as through (in Osho's case), state accusations for some almost unthinkable crimes.   It would seem that these leaders are among a growing number of power-hungry abusers, working in the shadows, who's actions are now being thrust into the light, and blinding them as they stumble and fall from their pedestals.  And for many who walk a spiritual path, it is absolutely devastating, causing a whiplash effect while they turn their backs on the teachings and the communities that supported them through their growth, development, and healing, leaving them saddened, lost, and even angry. Where do we go from here? Geha helps us to answer this question for ourselves as we digest our own disappointment in those who we considered our loving leaders, from our parents, to our teachers, and to those who we've admired who's lives took a sharp and shocking turn.

    #005: Life + Parenting By Design! with Cecilia Kissel

    She's a powerhouse in business as a partner in Deuce vodka, co-creator in the natural beauty products, Beauty from Bees, and even has her own kids deck called, Cool to connect!  Cecilia Kissel may also be the wife of popular country music artist Brett Kissel, but she is a wise, conscious, and deeply inspiring woman who is raising her family as a pure act of rebellion to "tradition."  In this podcast episode we discuss how she has blended her strong capabilities in interior design with her high intuition on creating intentional spaces in order to nurture the mental and physical health for her whole family in spite of revolving travel schedules and constant growth spurts. Her methods to creating more peace and calm for everyone in her home almost seem too simple, but for some reason, many of us have never even thought of them...let alone applied them to our lives.  Get ready to take a few notes, have a few laughs, and feel more empowered within your own life as you walk away from this insightful conversation.  Some points of discussion: - How to create intentional spaces within our homes as places for safety, exploration, and peace + quiet - Setting realistic expectations with our children (and with ourselves) to avoid unnecessary stress and overwhelm - Cecilia's best daily practices for herself and her kids that allows for less decision-making and more daily ease - The gift of sinking an expensive iPhone into the bottom of the ocean (and it wasn't even hers!) - The life-changing advice that she would give her younger self that would make all the difference on her mental health - The greatest risk in not advocating for Self and speaking up Follow Cecilia on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ceciliakissel/?hl=en
