Mind Love • Modern Mindfulness to Think, Feel, and Live Well Mind Love

We will learn:

How your environment signals to the universe what you desire and the importance of space-clearing

How your space can improve your romance and your finances

How to find your personal energy number


Ever walk into a room and feel like something's just... off? You can't quite put your finger on it, but suddenly, you're having trouble relaxing or getting anything done.
Here's the deal: our environment affects us way more than we realize. It’s not just about what’s in your space, but how your space is arranged.
So today, we’re diving into the concept of feng shui, which is all about how energy - or "chi," as they call it - flows through your space. It's like giving your home a tune-up, but instead of fixing your car, you're fixing the vibes.
Feng shui teaches us how to tune into these subtle energies and make them work for us. And the best part? You don't need to be some spiritual guru to do it. It's all about simple changes that can make a big difference.
Our guest is Marie Diamond.
She is a world‐renowned Master Teacher of Feng Shui and the Law of Attraction, a six-time global best-selling author, and the star of the major network TV series “Feng Shui Your Life.” Marie has been featured on NBC, Fox, and CBS and she also starred in the global phenomenon “The Secret.”
Marie has taught more than one million students over the last 30 years and today we’re in that group.

We will learn:

How to master the art of setting boundaries without drama

Why people emotionally regress and how to handle it with empathy

How specificity in conversation might save your relationships


Every gift has a shadow, and every shadow a gift. This has been one of my biggest lessons throughout my spiritual growth. I've learned that the impact of our actions or words can vary dramatically based on the energy we bring to them.
Take serving others, for instance. It can spring from a sense of purpose and self-worth, or it can be rooted in people-pleasing. Same action, totally different vibe.
This duality is everywhere in our lives. Confidence can be empowering or arrogant, depending on how you use it. Ambition can drive you to reach for the stars or have you stepping on others to get there.
But is there a way to honor our truth while leaving space for others? I think there is.
It's about finding that sweet spot between doormat and bulldozer. It's speaking your mind without steamrolling others. It's setting boundaries with kindness. It's disagreeing without dismissing.
So that’s what we’re talking about today. Our guest is Amy Green Smith. She is a life coach and hypnotherapist, speaker, and communication expert. She helps people find their voice and move to a place of radical personal empowerment and self-worth.

We will learn:

How feeling "too much" impacts lives and relationships, and how you can embrace your full self without apology.

How Brianna's dogs led her to make radical life choices and what she’s learned from her aging dogs about slowing down and living in the moment

The heart-wrenching yet empowering conversations about navigating relationships with imperfect parents—and how it shapes us.


Dogs have a lot to teach us. They don’t care about our flaws or past mistakes. They don’t hold grudges or criticize our choices. They simply love us for who we are in the purest, most genuine way possible.
They remind us to enjoy the simple pleasures—a walk in the park, a game of fetch, a quiet moment of cuddling. They teach us the value of being present, of living in the moment without worrying about the future or dwelling on the past.
In many ways, dogs embody the best qualities we aspire to have. Their love is a light, guiding us through our darkest times and celebrating with us in our happiest moments.
Today, we’re unfolding a few more life lessons learned from love, loss, and dogs. And I love this type of episode… very conversational, raw, and real.
Our guest is Brianna Madia. She has lived a life of relentless intention, traveling the deserts of the American West in an old Ford van. She made a name for herself on social media with her inspiring captions-cum-essays about bravery, identity, nature, and subverting expectations, and, of course, her 4 dogs.

We will learn:

The hidden power of acceptance in relationships.

How asking thought-provoking questions can revolutionize your conversations and relationships.

How to craft questions that avoid dead-end answers and spark powerful, transformative discussions.


Have you ever noticed that certain conversations or people leave you feeling a particular way? Maybe it’s a really good feeling—like true connection, fulfillment, or belonging. Or maybe it’s not so great, leaving you frustrated, disconnected, or defensive. Sometimes, it’s hard to pinpoint why.
The question is, do certain dynamics just exist as they are, and you’ll never feel that harmony? Or is there something you can do to spark it? To align better with the other person?
Too often, when we shift our own patterns, the people and circumstances around us shift too. And that starts with our own communication.
So today, we’re going to learn how to shift your life by asking better, more intentional questions and how to create those moments of true connection more regularly.

How belonging creates healing

How spiritual development changes your brain

The five stages of post-traumatic growth that turn our pain into power


Why do some people seem to bounce back from life's hardest blows, while others stay down?
Sometimes, you might be the one who can't seem to find your footing after a struggle. And if you're actively denying your pain or comparing it to others, thinking, "What I went through isn't that bad; I shouldn't be feeling this way," you're going to miss the lesson.
Instead, if you can be honest and say, "This is breaking me. What is the lesson here?" and dive deep into that pain to uncover the growth beneath, you're going to change the way you experience your life.
Our guest today, Edith Shiro, a clinical psychologist and the author of "The Unexpected Gift of Trauma: The Path to Post-Traumatic Growth." Edith is here to teach us how to transform our suffering into our superpower. She'll share insights from her book and her clinical experience, helping us understand that while trauma may not always be visible to others, it's our own personal experience that matters most. By embracing our pain and looking for the lessons it holds, we can unlock a path to profound personal growth and transformation.

We will learn:

How a radical use of present-tense affirmations can reshape your reality.

How to embrace boredom and repetitive activities as a superpower

How to truly flow with life


If you’re anything like me (and I’ve got a hunch that you might be, given that you’re listening to this podcast), you have spent quite a bit of time working on yourself.
But eventually, you get to a point where you think, okay, this is all good in theory, but what about in practice?
It’s easy to feel enlightened when you’re off in a cave or an ashram, but it’s our real lives that are the portal to our own awakening.
When you can find the bliss in doing the dishes, the meditation in running on a trail, or… find God in the brother you haven’t spoken to in years… that’s when you truly start to understand what zen is all about.
So today, we're diving into how we can bring these zen principles into our everyday lives, transform mundane tasks into moments of mindfulness, and navigate the complexities of life with a sense of calm and presence.
Because the true test of zen isn't how peaceful you feel in solitude but how centered you remain in the midst of it all.
Our guest is Katie Arnold. She is an award-winning journalist, longtime contributor to Outside Magazine, and author of the acclaimed 2019 memoir Running Home. She’s a Zen practitioner and champion ultrarunner, and she teaches writing and running retreats, exploring the link between movement and creativity, wilderness and stillness. Her new book, Brief Flashings in the Phenomenal World: Zen and the Art of Running Free, is a spiritual guide and an exploration of how to be.
