    29: The Only Steps You Need to Manifest Anything | Rati Rasa

    👉🏻 If you’re ready to expand your wealth and enhance your health, join our FREE online community for entrepreneurs. What if manifestation isn’t mystical or mechanical, but something far more practical? If you can’t see something, it’s easy to assume it isn’t real, and that assumption quietly shapes how people relate to consciousness, manifestation, and conscious living in everyday life. In this episode, my wife, Rati Rasa Dasi, and I present a grounded way to understand how the inner world and outer world interact, especially when people feel pulled between blind belief and strict skepticism. Human experience moves through four planes of existence, the physical body, emotional body, mental mind, and spiritual self, and each layer plays a role in how decisions form, behaviors repeat, and outcomes take shape over time. Unseen forces still produce real effects, just as electricity functions without being visible. Consciousness operates in the exact same way. This episode is for anyone interested in mindfulness, self-awareness, and personal growth who wants clarity without abandoning logic or responsibility. You’ll Learn: [00:00] Introduction  [01:18] Why visibility is a weak test for truth and how electricity reframes consciousness  [02:42] How the four planes of existence function and why confusing them blocks change  [04:37] What separates the real you from body and mind, and how change makes that visible  [06:21] How early conditioning shapes ego before conscious choice feels possible [07:48] How thoughts turn into words, words into actions, and actions into lived reality [10:33] Why environment acts like a mental and emotional diet affecting health and direction  [13:54] Why integrity comes from aligning thought, emotion, speech, and action [15:41] Why visualization without action stalls manifestation [23:17] Why emotion links vision to results through the subconscious mind Want to start a podcast like this one?

    28: The Day We Almost Died During a Retreat

    👉🏻 If you’re ready to expand your wealth and enhance your health, join our FREE online community for entrepreneurs. What happens when your sense of certainty disappears in one violent second?  In this episode, I sit down with Sarah Burney and Rati Rasa Dasi to share one of the most intense experiences of our lives—an accident on a remote Greek island that forced us into presence, surrender, and radical trust faster than any practice ever could. You’ll hear about the moments after a devastating crash, the shock of realizing help was limited, and the surreal chain of events that followed. What unfolded wasn’t just a story of survival, it was a real-time lesson in nervous system regulation, resilience, and leadership under pressure. We talk honestly about fear, adrenaline, and how the body responds when everything familiar disappears. We also explore how this experience reshaped our understanding of trauma healing, embodiment, and what it actually means to stay grounded when life stops negotiating. If you’re on a path of personal growth, conscious leadership, or building a life that can hold both expansion and uncertainty, this conversation will meet you there. This isn’t polished, it’s lived. And it changed us. You’ll Learn: [00:00] Introduction [01:18] How leading a retreat in a remote place can turn dangerous fast [02:07] What changed when we skipped a helmet for a short ride [03:38] What the mind does when you think your partner fell off a cliff [04:47] How adrenaline takes over before pain fully arrives [06:12] What it’s like realizing there is no hospital nearby [09:10] How chaos escalates when everyone rushes in at once [13:42] How leadership shows up even when you’re injured [18:26] What navigating emergency care feels like without clarity [24:58] How trauma stays in the body long after the accident [31:14] How this experience changed our relationship with trust and control [37:02] Why telling this story still causes physical shaking Want to start a podcast like this one?

    27: How to Make 2026 the Best Year of Your Life

    👉🏻 If you’re ready to expand your wealth and enhance your health, join our FREE online community for entrepreneurs. What if the next 12 months were unrecognizable in the best way? I've spent the last year using a specific roadmap on myself and with our community, and it has reshaped my goals and the reality I wake up in. In this episode, I take everything we've been exploring and turn it into a simple, practical game plan you can actually follow.  Most people set clear goals, then find themselves a year later whispering, "How the hell am I still here?” We look at why that happens, how your identity and mind quietly sabotage follow through, and what changes when your daily habits finally line up with what you say you want. You'll get a realistic way to work with resistance, to stay in integrity when life throws curveballs, and to use simple accountability so you stop abandoning yourself halfway through. Hit play and decide which kind of hard you're finally willing to choose. You’ll Learn: [00:00] Introduction [02:13] Building identity first makes your results predictable instead of accidental [04:08] The reason your goals stall when they’re arbitrary instead of emotionally anchored [06:51] How choosing only 3-5 priorities strengthens follow through instead of scattering it [09:33] Why consistency requires systems you can return to even after falling off [12:47] What accountability actually does to your self trust, physiology, and follow through [18:39] How the “comfort zone” disguises itself as safety and blocks the next level [20:44] What changes when you act on a commitment even when you don’t feel like it [22:16] Why choosing the right “hard” becomes easier than staying the same Want to start a podcast like this one?

    26: How to Heal Yourself With Desserts | Giselle Shah

    👉🏻 If you’re ready to expand your wealth and enhance your health, join our FREE online community for entrepreneurs. What if the only thing your body could handle was dessert? In this episode, I sit down with Giselle Shaw, a naturopathic doctor with a PhD, certified herbalist, nutritionist, and Ayurvedic healer who turned a lifetime of autoimmune issues, allergies, and an eating disorder into a path of natural healing. Years of anxiety, panic attacks, and feeling disconnected from her body led to a breaking point and a single-word prayer that opened the door to a completely different way of caring for herself. We get into what it really feels like when your body rejects almost everything you eat yet lights up for the one kind of food everyone assumes should be off limits. You’ll hear how she used intuition, prayer, and deep self-awareness to let those desserts become medicine and a form of service, without skipping over the hard work, the tears, or the uncomfortable emotions that had to be felt. You’ll Learn: [00:00] Introduction [01:03] Why a lifetime of anxiety and autoimmune symptoms became the turning point [02:46] What changes when nothing works and you finally ask for help [04:11] How one dessert became nourishment when her body rejected everything else [06:53] The shift that happened after surrendering control instead of pushing harder [09:14] How healing herself expanded into healing others through sweets [12:28] Why intuition around food strengthens when you slow down and listen [17:42] The connection between hunger cues, emotions, and what your body is asking for [22:56] How baking became a spiritual assignment rather than a business choice [27:33] What opens up when service leads instead of strategy [33:58] Why joy and devotion sustain growth more than willpower alone Want to start a podcast like this one?

    25: How Overthinking Blocks Your Success (And the 4-step Framework to Stop It)

    👉🏻 If you’re ready to expand your wealth and enhance your health, join our FREE online community for entrepreneurs. Motivation is a scam. That line hit me so hard the first time I said it out loud. Because deep down, I knew I’d been waiting for the perfect surge of energy, the right morning, the right feeling — instead of just doing the thing that needed to be done.  In this episode, I’m diving into the illusion of clarity and the real power behind decision-making. I unpack what happens when we keep waiting for certainty that will never come, and why indecision is the silent killer of momentum. You’ll hear how I reframed responsibility, cut through analysis paralysis, and started using faith instead of fear to move forward. It all comes down to one thing: choosing courage over comfort, one decision at a time. Because your life can change in an instant, the moment you stop waiting to feel ready. You’ll Learn: [00:00] Introduction [01:07] Why waiting for perfect clarity keeps you stuck in indecision [03:42] The real reason motivation will never move you forward [06:15] What decision fatigue reveals about your hidden habits [08:57] How radical responsibility changes the way you see your problems [11:22] Why believing everything happens for you rewires how you handle setbacks [15:10] A simple four-question test for making aligned, stress-free decisions [20:46] The truth about discipline and why consistency must come first [23:38] How courage shows up when you act before you feel ready [26:14] What happens when you stop waiting for clarity and finally choose Want to start a podcast like this one?

    24: How to Identify Your REAL Values & Align With Them | Sarah Burney

    👉🏻 If you’re ready to expand your wealth and enhance your health, join our FREE online community for entrepreneurs. Ever notice how often “integrity” gets thrown around online, but no one really explains what it means to live it? In this episode, I sit down with Sarah Burney, a licensed clinical social worker and certified eating disorder specialist who’s led one of the nation’s largest adult programs. She’s spent over a decade helping people find alignment between their values and their actions, and she doesn’t shy away from the uncomfortable parts of that process. We unpack why chasing comfort can quietly sabotage growth, and what happens when you confuse your feelings for your values. You’ll hear how discomfort, discipline, and critical thinking fit together, and why real happiness often comes from doing what you don’t feel like doing. Sometimes the hardest truth is this: that feeling uneasy doesn’t mean you’re off track, it means you’re finally on it. You’ll Learn: [00:00] Introduction [02:13] Why success starts with doing what you said you would do [04:38] The difference between living by your feelings and living by your values [07:52] How borrowed beliefs can quietly shape your entire life [10:19] What happens when “my truth” replaces critical thinking [12:45] The real reason discomfort is essential for maturity [14:32] How the people you choose hold you accountable to your integrity [16:58] Why purpose often feels like responsibility, not freedom [20:47] What small, consistent progress actually looks like in real life [26:03] How to use your emotions as data instead of direction Want to start a podcast like this one?

    23: How to STOP Living Your Life On Autopilot

    👉🏻 If you’re ready to expand your wealth and enhance your health, join our FREE online community for entrepreneurs. What if the way you’ll be remembered has nothing to do with what you achieve, and everything to do with who you decide to be right now? In this episode, I explore what it really means to live your legacy while you’re still here. Most of us are moving through life on autopilot, collecting labels and habits that don’t reflect who we actually want to become. This conversation invites you to stop and ask, “What kind of person do I want to be known as, and am I showing up as them today?”  I get into death, identity, and the daily choices that quietly shape our reputation. It’s not about grand goals or perfect routines. It’s about noticing who you are in real time and aligning small actions with your deeper values, because the person you’re becoming is already leaving a legacy whether you mean to or not. You’ll Learn: [00:00] Introduction [02:43] Why confronting death might be the key to finally living fully [05:42] The hidden power of identity and how what you believe shapes who you become [07:55] How to spot the habits quietly holding you back from your potential [10:48] What happens when your conscious and subconscious values don’t agree [13:16] The one question that instantly shifts how you respond to life [16:42] Why you’re not actually stuck, you’re just living in a story you didn’t choose [19:34] How to tell what you truly value by looking at your time, money, and attention [20:55] The real meaning of authenticity, and why most people get it wrong [23:48] How tiny daily choices build the life and legacy you’ll leave behind Want to start a podcast like this one?
