Ladies & Gentlemen of the podcast, I know, I know, I know. It's been a minute since we last spoke. That makes me even more excited to share today's episode with you all. I'm speaking with NY-based photographer and writer Collin Hughes. Collin has worked with some of the world's biggest brands like Nike, Amazon, Tommy Hilfiger, and more on a variety of projects, both commercial and editorial. I stumbled across his work through an old high school friend and was mesmerized by his eye and unique style of photography. I've been following Collin's journey for more than a decade, and his photos carry such a unique and tasteful ambiance that it was clear to me I wanted to explore who’s behind the lens and get to know the person. We're free-flowing through all different kinds of topics, ranging from photography and Collin's early creative memories to fatherhood, integrity, presence, and so much more. I love you all and can't wait to share more conversations like this in the future with y'all. I love you.



👉 We explored a broad variety of topics such as:
- The impact of family life on creativity and personal growth
- Self-initiated creative projects vs. commercial pursuits
- On the pursuit of integrity and the value of authenticity and self-awareness- Using photography as an extension of ones personality
- Writing as a tool of self-discovery
- Fatherhood and its effects on Collin's creativity
- Collin's creative journey: From wedding photography to working with brands such as Nike and Amazon
- The concept of getting closer instead of getting older reflects a deeper understanding of oneself and the evolving nature of life

"What has gone wrong on a major scale that human beings aren't relishing life?"



Brothers & sisters, are you ready for that FIRE energy?! Today I'm speaking with Chrissie Fire Mane. Co-Founder of MANA, Chrissie has always been guided by the excitement of empowering people to be creators. Named 'chaqaruna' or Bridge-Person by the Q'ero, Wisdom Keepers of the Andes, Chrissie's north star is activating and rewilding humanity with modern and indigenous wisdom, reminding people of what is already inside but forgotten or suppressed. Chrissie has been facilitating transformational weekends, workshops and retreats around the world intensively since 2012, moving online also in 2017. The journey of motherhood has greatly shaped Chrissie's path, raising her two wild children travelling the world and sitting in sacred ceremonies, learning from elders. She has roots in activism, beginning at Greenpeace in the Press Office in the UK in 2000, combining her passions for communications with service, has launched numerous campaigns in frontline activism mainly in water conservation and more recently served on the New Earth Council as part of the Humanitad Foundation. As an artist, Chrissie was signed to Virgin Records, has toured and created albums and continues to use her love of poetry, singing and frequency to complement her style of leadership. Her spiritual path led her to the Peruvian Andes in 2012 where she was initiated as Chullu Chaqera, or Sweat Lodge Mama Qona in 2017. Simply, Chrissie draws from conscious motherhood and indigenous tradition to inspire her community back to the natural truth of things. I'm in awe of the polarity of Chrissie's being, the open-heartedness AND stability, power and discernment that she brings into the world. Let me know how this co-creation lands with you. I love that you're here.



👉 We explored a broad variety of topics such as:
- Honoring your intuition and setting boundaries
- Embracing creativity and independence
- Balancing joy and discernment
- Activism from a place of joy and love
- Addressing suppressed emotions
- Creating change from a place of joy and love instead of rage and anger
- The frequency of certainty and power
- The role of community and gathering spaces
- Finding joy and passion in life
- Motherhood
- Embracing new opportunities and Chrissie's move to America

"I remembered home."



Aloha, beautiful podcast family! What a gift it is to share yet another inspiring, deep, and thoughtful conversation with you. Week after week, I still have to pinch myself that I get to do this. Today, I'm speaking with Robert W. Dean. Robert is a writer and filmmaker whose work is profoundly inspired by the breathtaking landscapes of New Mexico. With nature as his most profound teacher, Robert is on a mission to weave themes of unity and love into every story and project he undertakes. His diverse body of work highlights the urgent need for a radical shift toward recognizing our inherent connections across the globe. Driven by a firm belief in the power of community and collaboration, his endeavors seek to catalyze deeper global interconnectivity. Through his multifaceted career, Robert advocates for a world where humanity thrives in harmony, dedicated to forging a more harmonious future where every individual and ecosystem can flourish. I stumbled across Robert's work many moons ago and was mesmerized by his capture of the American West. My gravitation towards him shifted from being inspired by "the external" to Robert's sincere introspective journey towards self-realization. My intuition whispered into my ears that now would be a good time to reconnect with him after all these years, and I couldn't be more grateful for the fact that I did. Listen for yourself and let me know how this co-creation resonates with you.



👉 We explored a broad variety of topics such as:
- Death & rebirth
- Robert's pivotal moment of awakening and what it has taught him
- Joy without guilt
- What does it mean and take to "shine your light" and share it with the world
- Masculine & feminine energies as cosmic forces in relationships, work and the universe

- The outlaw archetype

"There's a part of me that cannot be satiated by this worldly experience."



Grand rising, soul and podcast family! I'm excited to share yet another LIVE podcast episode with you - freshly out of the oven, taped and recorded in my beautiful new home in Bavaria. I sat down with my good friend and fellow seeker, Felix Wittmann. Felix is currently birthing his business as a somatic-spiritual coach, assisting people in coming into deeper embodiment of their true selves through nervous system work, trauma integration, and restoring relationship with God. His approach is founded on a synergy of trauma-informed somatic principles and a more intuitive and mystical approach. In his 1:1 coaching sessions, he creates safe and sacred spaces for people to explore, experience, and integrate their full spectrum human experience. I am deeply inspired by Felix's commitment and devotion to God and how he seeks to understand. I'm infinitely grateful for the connection with him, and to me personally, this is a testament to the work here on the podcast. Show yourselves, people! Unapologetically. That's the only way the world can respond to you on eye-level, meeting you where you're at, and providing you with people, places, and circumstances that are aligned for you. I love you.



👉 We explored a broad variety of topics such as:
- The crossroads between science/somatics and spirituality
- What we need to know about our nervous system and how it affects our inner world
- Practices and tecniques to regulating ourselves
- Circling with men and what this work has introduced into Felix' life
- Developing a relationship to God
- A deep dive into Felix' work and philosophy
- How do we pray?
- Why boundaries are quintessential to human flourishing

"The thing that changed everything was choosing to do something different in this moment of awareness."



Grand rising, soul family. Today, I bring you a beautiful little episode with ThaiHa Sloan. ThaiHa works as a somatic healing mentor, breathwork facilitator, and relationship coach, and recently gained prominence on the internet with her content around conscious communication and self-regulated behavior in relationships. Besides finding great value in her shares on social media, I became curious about the human behind this wisdom. So, I reached out. It turns out, ThaiHa struggled with severe eating disorders and body dysmorphia that led her onto the path of healing and recovery. I'm immensely grateful for the opportunity to speak with ThaiHa, not only about the things that she's teaching but also about her personal learnings and struggles. I found it beautiful to find a fellow spiritual seeker within ThaiHa, someone who investigates the human experience from a very curious, sincere, and deep place. That being said, enjoy this conversation between two souls who have come together with open hearts to share what's alive in this very moment. I'm honored to serve you in this way with these conversations.



👉 We explored a broad variety of topics such as:
- ThaiHa's personal context and journey
- How wrestling informed ThaiHa's healing journey and the work that she's doing today
- The different levels of self-awareness and personal growth: From understanding to embodying
- What is somatic therapy and how did it help ThaiHa in her process of healing from an eating disorder and body dismporphia?
- How to access the universe and kingdom within you
- The connection between love and spirituality
