Happy New Year — and welcome to the last episode of Season 1!
We’re going to set ourselves up for a strong 2024 in this episode with clear steps to help you build the life you want. That means going easy on ourselves, doing the work to heal, clarifying our intention, connecting to something greater than ourselves, and more.
My wish for you is that you find wisdom and tools that help you weather whatever this year has in store.
And stay tuned — we’ve learned so much these last 20 episodes and we’re hard at work on Season 2. Can’t wait for you to hear it!

Ep. 19: Following That Still, Small Voice
In 2018, watching old reruns of the Oprah Show, I learned about the still, small voice that is always speaking to us. Our work is to get quiet enough to hear that voice, and follow its guidance. In this episode I share the story of what first led me to Oprah, how I applied this teaching to my life, and the recent opportunity I got to spend the day with her and Gayle!

How can you give yourself permission to be more creative in your life? That’s what our guest Grey Jacks is here to help us with. As a creative coach and recording artist, he has helped leaders (like me) tap into our innate creativity, deal with doubt, and stay curious along the creative journey.

Customer Reviews
Slow Down To Listen
“Find your soul, before your role.” These and so many other 🎤mic drop moments and gems 💎 of wisdom tucked neatly into each and every episode. I found this podcast on the exact day I began a new journey and needed a companion voice to walk me with amidst the unknown. 🎧 That voice is the one and only Julio Alvarez. He’s this generation’s answer to the question, “Who is our next Brené Brown?” Tell me who else has watched every episode of every Oprah show in existence, and has a heart-powered database to call upon for just the right quotes and inspiration. That is a MasterClass level gift of commitment, listening, reflecting and integrating. I think he might even have Gayle beat on that stat. This show is masterful in its production and leaves me wanting to listen again and again. Each episode deserves at least three listens. You’ll get something new and profound each and every time. Let’s go! Let’s grow!

Julio, From the Inside
