Drop The Weight with Elizabeth McGann Elizabeth McGann

In this episode of Drop the Weight, we speak with Master Healer and Level 3 QHHT Practitioner Jeroen de Wit. For those of you not yet familiar: QHHT stands for Quantum Healing Hypnosis Technique and is a mode of healing that has gained significant traction in the healing community of late.
 
The legendary influence of QHHT’s founder Dolores Cannon is strongly felt throughout the discussion. It was through Jeroen’s discovery and 1-on-1 work with Cannon (who died in 2014) that he found his voice and calling as a healer who has gone on to work with over 2500 hundred clients.
 
Beginning with a basic tour of the contours of what QHHT is; to a consideration of such 5D concepts as The Akashic Records; to Tucker Carlson’s recent talk about Unidentified Aerial Phenomena with Joe Rogan; to the inspired book Jeroen is now writing based on his experiences; this podcast covers a breathtaking amount of ground (and pulls no metaphysical punches) as we depart from what Jeroen and Elizabeth refer to as “consensus reality” throughout.
 
Please enjoy!

In this episode of Drop the Weight, we are joined by the wonderful Dr. Phil Parker to discuss everything from his ground-breaking “Lightning Process;” to neuroplasticity; to philosophical life lessons from the musical genius of Miles Davis; to Phil’s own so-called “Swiss Army Knife” for disentangling the human mind. 
 
Throughout the podcast, Phil describes how in his own hero’s journey: as a young man and aspiring musician he nearly completely severed his hand; how against the odds, he recovered from that nerve-slicing experience (despite the advice of almost all available doctors); and went on to develop his own “Lightning Process” and play music with Eric Clapton in the process.
 
We also learn how Phil applies the power and pitfalls of identity thinking to the issues of addiction and alcoholism to unlock the hidden wisdoms inside so-called 12 Step Programs.
 
With his scientific fascination with language, his deeply held beliefs about the transformative nature of the human mind, and his charming love of music, Phil’s visit to the podcast was one of the most memorable to date. It is a pleasure to share that conversation with you here.

In this episode of Drop the Weight the distinguished Jane Aubriet-Beausire joins us all the way from the UK in the first in a series of podcasts engaging the topic of menopause from a variety of thought-provoking and meaningful perspectives in 2024.
 
A talented executive leadership coach, world traveler and author of the ground-breaking article “Menopause as a Leadership Passage,” Jane draws upon her empowering experiences in the Maori culture of rural New Zealand and elsewhere to shed light on the experience of menopause: not as a distinct moment in time, but as a 15- to 20-year journey from perimenopause to menopause to post-menopause for most women. 
 
The discussion touches upon how with the right diet, lifestyle and knowledgeable perspective, this important time in a woman’s life can be an aspirationally positive experience. With thoughts about the implications about Diversity, Equity & Inclusion in the workplace, as well as andropause—the male version of menopause—also considered along the way.
 
Sincere thanks to Jane for providing much needed fresh thinking on a topic that any woman approaching the age of 50 and beyond will benefit from enormously.

From the rise of Artificial Intelligence, to the Age of Aquarius to the frightening pastiche of Election 2024, this episode of Drop the Weight with master leadership expert Chela Davison covers a truly epic range of topics (with just a few apocalyptic notes to keep things interesting.)
 
Through it all, Chela’s sensible grounding in the real meaning of leadership both--both inward and outward, rooted in integrity through even the most incredible times of change--provide context and meaning that make the whirl of the discussion a lot less unsettling.
 
Whatever your thoughts, predictions, hopes and probably inescapable anxieties surrounding 2024, perhaps we can all agree that it won’t be boring!
