    UAP - EP13: The Art of Letting Go w/ Buddhist Monk Bhante Saranapala - Detachment, Desire & Freedom

    Welcome to Episode 13 of the Unapologetically Audacious podcast! The Buddha once said, “Desire is the root of suffering.” But what does that really mean in our modern world—where we’re told to chase goals, dream big, and want more? The tighter you hold, the heavier it gets.” In this soul-awakening conversation, Buddhist Monk Bhante Saranapala, known as The Urban Buddhist Monk, joins Rebecca to explore why desire is the root of suffering — and how to free ourselves from emotional, material, and spiritual attachment. From understanding the Four Noble Truths to learning how to breathe like a dolphin, Bhante shares practical ways to find peace, lighten emotional baggage, and reconnect with inner wisdom. This is an episode about surrender, letting go, and discovering that freedom starts within. 0:58 – 3:24 – Desire as the Root of Suffering 3:24 – 7:00 – Understanding Desire and Accountability 7:00 – 11:22 – Healthy vs. Unhealthy Desire 11:22 – 15:56 – Letting Go of Emotional & Material Burdens 15:56 – 21:30 – Overcoming Fear & the Unknown 21:30 – 26:02 – Velcro Brain vs. Teflon Brain (Neuroscience of Suffering) 26:02 – 31:51 – Meditation, Surrender, and Aligning Body & Mind 31:51 – 36:08 – First Steps to Meditation & Monkey Mind 36:08 – 42:50 – One-Minute Mindful Breathing Technique 42:50 – 47:33 – Loving-Kindness Meditation & Brain Rewiring 47:33 – 53:24 – Canada: A Mindful and Kind Nation & Ripple Effect of Kindness 53:24 – End – Final Thoughts & Message to Viewers 🔗 Connect with Bhante Instagram | urban_buddhist_monk ​⁠ Website | https://www.urbanbuddhistmonk.org/ 🎧 Listen now — and get ready to live aligned, audacious, and on your own terms.

    UAP - EP12: Why Phoebe Dykstra WALKED AWAY From Fame (And What Happened Next)

    Welcome back to Episode 12 of Unapologetically Audacious! Five years ago, we had a conversation that cracked something open in both of us. Ten years ago, Phoebe Dykstra walked away from a dream job at MuchMusic and MTV — the kind of job most people would kill for — to follow a deeper call she couldn’t ignore. This episode is not about fame. It’s about what happens when your soul outgrows the version of you the world applauds. It’s about identity collapse, spiritual bypassing, psychedelics, plant medicine, ego, and learning how to come home to yourself… again and again. Phoebe shares the beautiful, brutal, and brave truth behind walking away from fame — and what it really means to build a life that’s yours. If you’ve ever felt lost in your story, like you’re between chapters, like you’ve been cracked open — this one’s for you. ✨ You’re not broken. You’re just becoming. ✨ 👇 Chapters & Timestamps 00:00 – Intro: Who is Phoebe Dykstra now? 03:14 – Walking away from fame: The identity split 13:32 – Shadow work & the evolution of self 20:45 – What would little Phoebe say? 25:58 – The Hero’s Journey explained (and lived) 30:59 – Dissonance, discomfort & leaving your old life 36:13 – Britney Spears, stuck identity & a cry for help 41:00 – Losing people when you evolve 43:38 – The cost of being seen — and loved 46:00 – Returning with the elixir: Completing the hero’s journey 51:02 – Ego isn’t the enemy — it’s part of the ride 57:00 – The mandala moment: “Just chill, it’s all working out.” 🔗 Connect with Phoebe Dykstra Instagram | @phoebedykstra Website | [Insert link if applicable] 🎧 Listen now — and get ready to live aligned, audacious, and on your own terms.
