    The Power We Can't See - Ajita Shah - Spiritual Healer with a Masters Degree in Psychology #312

    Send Us A Message or Ask Us A Question? Season 7 Premiere: Ajita Shah on Healing, Legacy, and Authenticity Host Savia Rocks opens Season 7 of the Us People Podcast focused on legacy, self-discovery, and transforming trauma, then interviews Ajita Shah, a spiritual healer with a master’s in psychology. Ajita shares growing up in India in a strict, service-oriented family of doctors, including her father’s research on retinitis pigmentosa, and explains sensing and working with energy from childhood.  After studying child development and psychology, she left a clinic practice following distressing cases that triggered a “dark night of the soul,” later completing interior design while developing OmniSource Healing and “Inner OS” for corporate clients.  They discuss why corporate culture resists terms like healing/karma, the stigma of public figures seeking help, using voice to remove masks and build self-love, daily practices for peace, and defining legacy as everyday ripple effects. Ajita encourages hope, seeking solutions, and exploring deep healing, and shares where to find her online. 00:00 Legacy Mindset Intro 01:10 Meet Ajita 02:42 Roots in India 05:33 Purpose and Identity 06:17 Early Energy Gifts 10:15 Psychology Path 12:45 Clinic Wake Up Call 16:03 Dark Night Shift 17:59 Design to Healing Work 22:38 Corporate Skepticism 28:29 Hidden Clients Story 30:06 Reputation vs Growth 31:48 Growth Through Challenges 32:28 Dropping the Masks 32:55 Authenticity Over Popularity 35:05 Voice as Freedom 36:19 Healing Work Explained 37:22 Client Breakthrough Story 39:47 Finding Daily Peace 41:27 Legacy and Ripple Effects 44:37 Scaling Impact Publicly 49:45 Hope and Healing Invitation 52:02 Where to Find Ajita 53:02 Podcast Farewell and Outro 55:05 Twin Flame Healing Talk Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/theajitashah/ X: https://x.com/theajitashah Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ajitashahofficial/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/theajitashah Thank you so much Ajita for showing us, that we have special powers within us and beautiful healing is one of them that we all need - Savia Rocks Support the show

Engineering Belonging: Camp Leadership, Legacy, and the Power of Words with Matt Kaufman Host Savia Rocks welcomes Matt, a camp director and author, to season seven of the Us People Podcast to discuss purpose, judgment, legacy, and building community. Matt shares growing up in diverse Rockland County near Manhattan with teacher parents who emphasized lifelong learning and summer camp as education.

He describes a typical summer day, misconceptions about the job, influential English teachers, mentors who hired him despite being introverted, and advice about expanding impact through leadership.

    Send Us A Message or Ask Us A Question? Savia Rocks opens season seven of the Us People Podcast with reflections on legacy, peeling away cultural conditioning and trauma, listening, and making choices that serve what matters. She interviews  Nuttha Goutier co-founder and CEO of Sabai Thai Spa, who shares growing up in a small village in Thailand with no running water or electricity where community support, joy in hard work, and living in the moment shaped her values.  Nuttha describes immigrating to Canada over 25 years ago, overcoming setbacks, doubt, depression, and personal losses by acknowledging the past, letting go, and focusing on present choices, defining herself by resilience. She explains her purpose for building spas as creating a welcoming, belonging “home” experience, promoting self-care as a routine, supporting local communities, and planting a tree for every massage, with success defined by people’s happiness and community impact.  She outlines her daily routine (early wake-up, meditation, exercise, preparing four kids for school, and choosing gratitude), discusses wellness as preventive care for mind, body, and spirit, and argues that caring for yourself leads to kindness toward others.  Nuttha Goutier speaks about avoiding judgment through respect and acceptance, concerns about technology’s impact on younger generations, and suggests more nature, meditation, and yoga in schools.  00:00 Welcome to Yes People Podcast 01:24 Meet  Nuttha Goutier 02:23 Growing Up in Thailand 03:22 Finding Joy in Hard Work 05:14 Life as a Journey 05:44 Building Through Belief 06:31 Self Care and Balance 07:15 Looking in the Mirror 08:23 Overcoming Life's Challenges 10:53 The Power of Resilience 11:26 Dealing with Trauma 12:37 Letting Go of the Past 13:53 Finding Your Purpose 15:15 Creating Meaningful Impact 17:12 Why Start a Spa Business 17:37 Everyone Has a Gift 18:14 Defining Success 19:36 The Sabai Spa Experience 21:12 A Day in the Life 22:43 Morning Routine and Mindset 23:18 Choosing Your Emotions 24:32 Embracing Imperfection 25:46 Understanding Wellness and Wellbeing 26:45 Wellbeing and Self Care 27:23 Preventative Health Philosophy 28:16 Body as Vehicle 30:05 Judgment and Respect 32:05 Technology and Modern Generation 34:55 Life Lessons and Quotes 36:00 Carrying with Your Heart 37:40 Three Ps of Success 38:32 Best Advice from Dad 39:58 Choices Equal Results 41:31 Living Each Day Fully 43:03 Forest Meditation Practice 44:20 Meditation Journey and Growth 45:36 Mental Health and Awareness 46:48 Connect and Find Out More 47:57 Final Words and Gratitude Website: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nutthagoutier/ Website: https://www.instagram.com/nutthagoutier/ Website: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61573378331497&ref=pro_upsell_xav_ig_profile_page_web# Website: https://sabaithai.com/ Thank you so much Nuttha Goutier for reminding us that the beauty of kindly has always lied within us - Savia Rocks Support the show
