    Slow your Roll & Upgrade your Mindset with Anthony Vizzone 🎲

    Show Notes Welcome back to ASCENDANT! Today I'm excited to present a conversation I had last year, with Anthony Vizzone, founder of Slow Your Roll, sometimes activist, and all-around entrepreneurial guy.

    Live at Stonehenge: A Near Death Experience & Meeting the Goddess Hel

    Show Notes Today, I have a VERY different episode to share with you, recorded with my mobile podcasting setup directly from STONEHENGE! That's right. The ancient stone circle in England. This involved packing a some gear into my backpack and walking around with some wires sticking out of my pocket, but it was worth it. In this episode, I have a spontaneous interview with a druid who tells a harrowing near death experience story! (I swear I attract NDE stories at this point.)

    Susan Roderick on Joy, Discipline, Meditation, & Soul Purpose 🧘

    Show Notes Today, I'm SO excited to invite Susan Roderick, photographer, filmmaker, podcaster, international retreat and tour guide, and much more, to the show! Our free-flowing conversation delves into how pain can inspire abundance, meditating in sensory deprivation tanks, and being raised with past lives in mind. Is "the formula" of capitalism the answer to happiness? What happens if we try to work that formula if it doesn't line up with our soul purpose? Does freedom require discipline? We explore these questions and much more in this delightfully unpredictable conversation! Further research: @susanroderick — Susan's excellent and travel-tastic IG account Becoming Nobody documentary that I keep mentioning, hah Susan's website — where you can see her photos, films Susan's retreat website — Also learn about her amazing retreats! I'm particularly excited about the one later this year in Bali! Andrew's TikTok with the best of ASCENDANT and his travel adventures — I mention this in the outro, and we're having a lot of fun over there 😂 Mahalo & Thank you for supporting this one-of-a-kind podcast! And in the aftershow, Susan shares a possibly the WILDEST story yet for an aftershow, about an ET encounter when she was just 6 years old. I don't want to over-exaggerate, but that story is worth joining the Patreon in and of itself, IMHO. And then after, she shares a pretty trippy story about being with her father as he passed away, truly witnessing his soul drop that physical vehicle in a very palpable way. She describes it so beautifully. You receive that, and all of the other after shows when you support the show on Patreon.

    Rachel Michelle on Feminine Power, Shadow Work, & Witches 💃

    Show Notes Rachel has a fascinating story of growing up between Germany and America, consciously deciding to leave her religion, researching paganism, tapping back into her grandmother’s wisdom, and lots of personal growth. Trigger warning: if you don’t like witches or non-western religion, you may want to skip this one. Also: What IS a witch? We explore this, and much more, in this juicy, often hilarious, conversation. 😂 (This is also the first episode wherein me reading the Dictionary could get me in trouble. #WitchFish) We delve into beliefs being like software that run in the mind. Can you judge a belief system from the outside looking in? How to leave a scarce or narrow view? What does spiritual maturity mean? We explore that, and more, in this episode. Further research: Ascendant 003: Jamie Catto Becomes Nobody and Invents Sanskrit Moldavite The Final Sacrifice film we mention Defending Your Life, the Albert Brooks film I recommend And what the hell, here’s a small cauldron Follow Rachel on Instagram!

    Richad, Nessy, Pressley, et al. talk Culture, Schismogenesis, & Gorgosaurus 🌏

    Show Notes Episode 9 is a delightfully weird one, a group discussion with some personal-growth-oriented friends about global culture, dialects, schismogenesis, and even dinosaurs. I don’t expect everyone to agree with the views expressed here, and my questions don’t imply my endorsement of literally anything. But this was a playful conversation between friends, and I look at this episode as a celebration of the ABUNDANCE of cultures that humanity encompasses. We even learn a new curse word in Korean! This is the first episode recorded entirely with my AudioTechnica mic, my iPhone, and just an adapter between the two, thus why I refer to my mobile podcasting setup in this episode. This setup will return in the coming weeks! (#foreshadowing) Enjoy this unusual, unpredictable, and often hilarious episode 😝 Further research: Museum of Ancient Life at Thanksgiving Point — Dinosaur Museum that Pressley loves and recommends Nessy on the Go — Nessy’s music!

    Show Notes Do you look outside of yourself to find safety? Or are you like a cork floating in the ocean screaming, I must control, I must control?

    Caitlin Knudsen Part 1: Attachment Theory & Andrew's Concussion 🤯

    Show Notes So grateful to have writer, food photographer, and much more, Caitlin Knudsen on ASCENDANT! We actually had this conversation last year, when ASCENDANT was in its development stage, but the resulting conversation ended up touching on a lot of interesting backstory, and became a rich conversation about attachment theory, conscious relationships, and effective communication! (Some very fun surprises in this episode.) Plus, I finally share my harrowing concussion story, the first time I've told the whole story in a public way. It even features some green sea turtles. (Also, we re-learn that the puppy love phase is just a pocket-dimension that doesn't have much of a relationship to objective reality.) Extra special episode. Enjoy! Further research: measureonce_tastetwice — Caitlin's beautiful recipe account Attached: The New Science of Adult Attachment — a decent intro to attachment theory 6 Steps to Completing Relationships — a step-by-step guide into a powerful forgiveness practice that helps you complete the past Mahalo & Thank you for supporting this one-of-a-kind podcast!
