    Episode 17: Trick of Blasphemy

    In this episode, let’s talk progression versus tradition. I’m all for carrying forward the wisdom of the generations before me and I’m also curious as where the line is between heresy and progress. As the common adage goes: change is the only constant. Given that this fact is so commonly known, why do people tend […]

    Episode 16: Live the Question, That’s the Answer

    In this episode, the classic paradox is at hand: find the answer to life by surrendering to living the question. Trying to find definitive answers to life is done by living through preferences. If what I prefer, aka my likes and dislikes, is ruling my decision-making and even worldview, then I will never know my […]

    Episode 15: Freedom is Not Cheetos for Dinner

    Freedom is the meat of a sandwich in which the bread is constraints! Today’s episode is about true freedom. There is a difference between just doing whatever your whims pull you to do and doing what you know aligns with your Highest Self and Commitment. When you can truly know yourself, you can make choices […]

    Episode 14: How Acceptance Always Wins

    Back from a short hiatus! Wow, did I resist making this episode. Why? Because in order to source each topic, I speak from what’s really happening in my life right now. This podcast is not meant to only be intellectually interesting. The work of taking these concepts of paradox into our real lives creates real […]

    Episode 13: Leggo My Ego

    I have discovered that if I remain unawakened and reactionary, my mind chooses my decisions for me based on its fears; but, if I put my mind to directing my mind, I can use it to choose from the foundation of my soul. It takes an acceptance of the ego to let go of the […]

    Episode 12: Dead on Arrival

    What’s happening if you’re not growing? Some would call it dying. In order to exercise our natural human progression, we must continue to make space for ourselves to grow. If I walk around all the time as if I have already arrived–like I have all the knowledge, I know exactly what’s right and what’s wrong, […]

    Episode 11: The Paradox of Binary

    As a person that certainly “looks” non-binary, I get asked a lot about binary vs non-binary — I had a great time making this episode because it’s a concept I enjoy greatly. As an avid student of Yoga and Taoism, I’m so intrigued by how we can resolve the fighting of opposites by surrendering to […]

    Episode 10: Destined to Freely Choose

    Is everything predetermined or do you have free will? Why not both? On today’s episode, I discuss how integrating this paradox in your thought processes and daily living can help you to feel powerful and enjoy your time as yourself on this planet. You are the only one who has the will to choose expressing […]

    Episode 9: Schrödinger’s Hundred Dollar Bill

    I went big on this episode. Join me! The thought experiment about quantum superposition has always intrigued me because of its impossibility. Impossibility is interesting, though, because so many times in human history have people said “That’s impossible!” and then lo and behold — it becomes possible and then even normal at some point. In […]

    Episode 8: Hate Times Love Equals Love

    The math checks out. In this episode, I explore the conversation around how to defeat hatred and haters. It can’t be through more hate or more violence! So, how do you love a hater? I have dealt with droves of people judging me in my life and in my cases, I’ve felt a lot of […]
