Who Do You Think You Are...? – Détails, épisodes et analyse

In today's episode, Glenn and I had the delightful opportunity to hang out with spiritual coach, founder of Awaken and Rise Coaching, fellow ministerial classmate, and all ‘round lovely, joyful, and fun-loving soul, Nicolle Star. 

Nicolle’s response to our question was simple: “I am Divine. I am Spirit, God. I am all of it.” She offered that we are all playing in this game of life as one. 

We talked about seriousness vs. laughter, playfulness, and fun of being spiritual. We talked about revealing, not seeking for, who we truly are. We talked, connection, responsibility, ministry, integrity, and values. We talked judgement, knowing truth, intention, and awareness. 

Nicolle also reminded us how much we can learn from kids; how boredom is an amazing opportunity to embrace the creativity we are; that there is no limit to the possibilities of creativity. 

She also talked about her spiritual studies so far, with Dr. Erin Haskell and now Dr. James Mellon. About online vs. in-person community and intentionality. About creating something for herself. 

Alan Watts, “Why do we attend church?,” the temple within, the Centre of Love, experiencing vs. being taught, and conscious conversations. This and so much more... 

Plus, there's the super fun Rapid Fire Question Round at the end! Today’s “prize” was, “Becoming” a poem from “Elemental Magic: Poetic Chapters of Wild Self Love” by Sara Rogers.

In today's episode, Glenn and I had the enriching opportunity to spend some time with transformation expert, intuitive healer, author, and speaker Angela Strank. 

From her expression of graciousness for the land acknowledgement offered by Glenn, Angela emphasized what vital roles the land and its energy play in her life. 

In answering our big, juicy question, she responded, “How do you answer that?! There are so many layers.” 

Angela talked about small vs. big picture and about being “all of it.” She spoke of the magic and energy of richness, expansion and healing, and endless potential for expansion. She talked feelings, connectedness, and aliveness. 

And things really got going when I asked Angela about horses. She talked about them being the love of her life. Her relationship with her horse, Elvis. Why the relationship between rider and horse is such a profound one, and how that relationship is a brilliant metaphor for surrender and trust. 

We talked presence, choices, chakras, isolation, and energy, energy, energy. This and so much more... 

Plus, there's the super fun Rapid Fire Question Round at the end! Today’s “prize” was an excerpt from “Skin” from “What Comes From Spirit” by Richard Wagamese.

In this episode, Glenn and I had the wonderful opportunity to engage and connect with new friend, perinatal counsellor, freedom advocate, mom, wife, and critical thinker, Maribelle (a.k.a. Karine). Maribelle got the conversation going by talking about how she believes so many of us are so wrapped up in our jobs, even identifying as the work we do. She goes on to say what a small aspect our jobs and work are in the grand scheme of things, and that we are so much more than that. We talked engagement, connection, opportunity, triggers, perception, intention, the importance of prayer, new motherhood, and freedom. We talked about risk analysis; "going back to caveman;" how important it is to connect to each other and our innate wisdom; how vital it is to connect to the land we are on; and, about how our choices impact not only ourselves but others as well. We also talked about the value of the individual vs. the collective, and how who we are and who we think we are is reflected right back at us in everyone in our lives and the experiences we create for ourselves. So what are we choosing to think. . . ? What are we choosing to believe. . . ? Rich, candid, funny, thoughtful and thought provoking - what an amazing way to start of our 2022 podcast year!

Warning - this episode contains explicit language. What a delight and how super fun it was to spend some time with ministerial and metaphysics student, spiritual counsellor, financial advisor, and uber Rush fan, Thomas DeSchutter! With his opening response of, "I don't know anymore who I am", our conversation quickly leaned into what it means to navigate the present moment in tact, and how ultimately, gratitude is where it's at. Thomas talked to us about how his spiritual studies have lit a fire in his soul and heart, and about how the work we do on ourselves is constant and never done. He talked about how that work allows us to lessen the gap between where we are and what is possible that much more quickly. We talked curiosity, labels, and integrity. We also delved into the world of crypto currency, which opened the conversational door to the concepts of safety and risk. Money, value, scarcity, inflation vs. devaluation, Cesar's trimming of gold coins, Bitcoin, proof of work vs. staking, the value of money, and looking at currency in new ways all made for a rich, engaging, juicy conversation that could've kept going beyond the recorded two hours! Thomas also told us of having his mind blown at 7 years old when he first heard Rush drummer Neil Peart, and how the music of Rush inspired him to become a rock musician himself - both ruining and making his life! Thomas also shared his 5 Money Principles, and the 3 main teachings of Jesus distilled down to healing one another, breaking bread together, and building community. We talked freedom of choice, bodily autonomy, standing in Principle, segregation, using our imagination, and not being afraid to die. This, and so much more...!

Warning - this episode contains explicit language. What an absolute treat it was to spend nearly two hours with friend, fellow classmate, New Thought Minister, spiritual advisor, and healer, Rev. Ursula Lentine! One of our favourite conversations to date! :) Rev. Ursula's playful opening response of, "I am a speck of stardust in the Infinite Reality of the Cosmos; I am you, you are me", opened the door to an expansive conversation on freedom, choice, identification, Covid, The Hero's Journey, perception, surviving vs. thriving, control, questioning, faith and belief, and wanting to fit in. We talked about FOMO, the value of comfort (our own vs. others'), internal vs. external locus of control, and the challenges, even darkness of subconscious programming. Ursula also talked about her work, including Internal Family Systems, Pranic Healing, her year-long "Self-Mastery Course" (see link below), and her weekly online Twin Hearts Meditation (see link below). One of Ursula's final statements, "My brain and all parts of me trust ME" landed in a very profound way, bringing Lesia to tears. This, and so much more...!

What an absolute delight it was to finally reconnect with friend, transition coach, healer, teacher, and champion of ceremony - Treecia Ramey! Her candid opening response of "Is it okay if I say I haven't got a clue. . .?" opened the door to a rich and enthusiastic discussion on being okay with living in the "I don't know", being in transition, and the importance of ceremony in our lives. Treecia talked about how her recent "Reconnect Now - No More Waiting!" online Summit came out of her passion for ceremony, and how feeling alone, depressed, even abandoned by the Divine, all led her to put together this incredible event so people all over the world could acknowledge, celebrate, and reconnect to the authentic self within, and to those in our lives. We talked shadow work, supporting family and friends through challenges, the meaning and value of ceremony for life events that often go unacknowledged, the connection between paganism and ceremony, and how triggers inform us. We also talked about the value of preparing for ceremony, and the commonality in what we value and want for our families, communities, and ourselves. Treecia also talked about her experience as a parent to a transgender person, which led to discussion of masculine and feminine energy, language, narrative, scripts, the drama triangle, and the concentric circles of perspective.

Warning - this episode contains explicit language. How wonderful it is when you meet someone new and immediately feel comfortable, at ease, and the conversation just flows! This is exactly what Glenn and I experienced in our latest episode with the delightful, thoughtful, questioning, and "super easy and fun to hang out with" Holly McCorriston. Holly's response of "I am a channel through which Universal energy expresses itself" was the jumping off point for an expansive, engaging, and enriching conversation on love, intuition, Knowing (with a capital "K"), critical thinking, and how broken down systems make it challenging for receivers and givers to support and feel supported. A former pharmacist, Holly spoke about how she used to be one of those "experts in the white lab coat." Over time, she discovered that the she had so much more to offer than what she was able to do as a pharmacist, so eventually gave up her licence, following her intuition to become a transformational coach to women on their journeys of self-discovery and empowerment. We talked about being scared to speak, tuning into what feels good vs. what doesn't, self-awareness, self-responsibility, solutions, support, gratitude, being in transition, impending motherhood, binary thinking, holding space for ourselves and others, breathing, and turning attention within rather than always looking outside ourselves for guidance.

Warning - this episode contains explicit language. What an absolute delight it was to spend time with the amazing, intuitive, colourful, inspirational, stylin' Rev. Andrea Arlington! An author, coach, minister, mom, former reality TV star, friend, and more, Andrea's response of "I am more non-physical than physical" was the jumping off point for a thoughtful, honest, and insightful conversation filled with bravery and vulnerability, and laughter. As we talked about how to live from the Quantum (infinite possibilities) while still being rooted in our seemingly physical reality (life), we talked parenting, the power of choice, how everyone wants to feel loved and like they belong, and about seeing the innate perfection of everyone - no matter what their behaviour. Andrea told us how our words are like magic wands and that it's so important to choose and use them wisely - that everything we think and say is what ultimately creates the reality we experience. Andrea also talked very poignantly and candidly about how her experimentation with psychedelics at a very early age were her "initiation" into the realm of energy and spirituality, even though she didn't realize it at the time. She also talked about her close relationship with her younger brother, who died at the age of 17 from an accident involving alcohol and other drugs, and how he continues to be one of her spiritual guides to this day. Andrea also introduced us to a few of her favourite books over the years, and the profound value and gift of gazing into your own pupils. We also talked about how much we both love Kenneth Soares and the mind-shifting power of affirmations! We talked perception, soul tribes, calling on the non-physical for guidance, addiction, recovery, compassion, her love for her daughters, her grandkids, Pink Floyd, reality tv, and ministry.

Even though the conversation got pretty heavy, what an absolute honour and thrill it was to welcome thinker, writer, philosopher, and psychology student, Emily Rodgers! The words "I am free," - Emily's resounding response to our big question - were the rich inspiration for a frank, candid, curious, sometimes worrying conversation on personal freedom, critical thinking, and responsibility for the reality we are each creating for ourselves, and for our world. We talked about value, meaning, the concept of objective truth, morality, and justice. We also talked about what can happen (hello, world) when realities clash and our truth/reality impinges on another's truth/reality. Much to Glenn's and my delight, we also got to hear a teenager's perspective on what's happening in our corner of the globe concerning the potential impact of newly mandated health passes as our daughter Mylana joined in on the conscious conversation about halfway through. Beliefs, consciousness, responsibility, empowerment, freedom, and how to apply our freedom all made it into the conversation. We also talked about Emily's recently released, very poignant video/letter calling out Prime Minster Justin Trudeau for how our country is currently being led. This, and so much more...!

What an incredible episode this turned out to be with musician, actor, social activist, and activational speaker Daryl Davis! "I am just an ordinary person who wants to make society a better place to be, just like my parents did for me." This was Daryl's response to our big question, and the jumping off point for what felt like in incredible, eye-opening master class for the first half of the show. Daryl shared stories of his multicultural upbringing, his first experience with racism at age 10, and how his European life experience compared with his American life experience. He talked about how, from that initial experience with racism in America (that was so different from his life experience in Europe), the main question he wanted answered was, "How can you hate me when don't know even know me?" He also talked about his first encounter with a Ku Klux Klan member, and how that meeting eventually led to an interview and subsequent friendship with the Grand Dragon of the KKK of Maryland, Roger Kelly. Daryl talked about how ignorance leads to fear which breeds hatred which incites anger which lead to destruction. He also talked about the different kinds of racism, and how important it is to get to the root of the cause, rather than just deal with the symptoms. This, and so much more...! And, because we just, just started talking about music before our time was up, we're gonna get together again for "Part 2" with Mr. Daryl Davis soon!
