When you accept who you are and how you feel, healing is possible. In this episode, we discuss the benefit of looking deeply at your pain and your trauma and doing the work to accept it. The other side is power. The other side is renewed innocence in a world where many of us are reliving our old traumas and hurts on a daily basis...in situations that are completely unrelated to the original pain.It's time to awaken to a new way of being.------------Work with us or reach out to us with inquiries, questions....and complaints (which we will likely ignore with love):Email: theshekings@gmail.comAli: http://iamaliduncan.com, FB:/aliduncanbeseen, IG: @aliduncanbeseenErica: http://ericadanielle.com, FB:/ericadanielleovershares, IG @ericadanielleoversharesJoin Erica's Open Meetings in Presence Peace and Power: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/presence-peace-and-power-open-meetings-tickets-113083622158.Support the show (https://www.patreon.com/join/shekings)
Sometimes there are energy shifts in our world that can be explained by any number of phenomena...but when they hit our bodies they feel like stress, anxiety, and sadness.When this happens we immediately want to find the problem and fix it so that we can feel better. But the truth is that sometimes there's nothing to find.Or, perhaps there is something to find, but it's already working itself out so there's no need to take a deep dive into figuring it all out. And when you do try to go into elaborate self-study, you feel more stuck rather than the relief you were looking for.In this episode, Ali and Erica explore these energetic shifts and offer some simple suggestions for getting through them peacefully.------------Work with us or reach out to us with inquiries, questions....and complaints (which we will likely ignore with love):Email: theshekings@gmail.comAli: http://iamaliduncan.com, FB:/aliduncanbeseen, IG: @aliduncanbeseenErica: http://ericadanielle.com, FB:/ericadanielleovershares, IG @ericadanielleoversharesJoin Erica's Open Meetings in Presence Peace and Power: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/presence-peace-and-power-open-meetings-tickets-113083622158.Support the show (https://www.patreon.com/join/shekings)
In this episode, Ali and Erica ponder the idea that when we are controlled by our reactions and circumstances then we don't have free will. Therefore, in times of collective or personal turmoil it becomes even more important to show up and do the deep spiritual work of healing.Let us share with you some ways to regain free will.

The more we do this work, the more we realize that the most common frustration in the world is the desire to be seen coupled with the fear of allowing it. There is an innate calling from within to show yourself, to be yourself, and to own your unique contribution to existence. And yet we all seem to struggle with it. This episode is all about showing up as yourself. What stops us, where this starts, and why we can't shake the desire. ------------Work with us or reach out to us with inquiries, questions....and complaints (which we will likely ignore with love):Email: theshekings@gmail.comAli: http://iamaliduncan.com, FB:/aliduncanbeseen, IG: @aliduncanbeseenErica: http://ericadanielle.com, FB:/ericadanielleovershares, IG @ericadanielleoversharesSupport the show (https://www.patreon.com/join/shekings)
Getting comfortable with being uncomfortable is something we hear all the time now. It's definitely becoming a buzzword/buzz phrase. And you know what the SheKings do with buzzy things. We turn them upside down. And shake the change of out their pockets. Just kidding. We want to be of support as you wade through 2020 (what a year, amirite?). And learning what it really means to sit in your discomfort can change everything. It requires your presence. It requires your peace. And in return you get both back in buckets - all the presence and peace of mind you're seeking is on other side of your discomfort. -------------Work with us or reach out to us with inquiries, questions....and complaints (which we will likely ignore with love):Email: theshekings@gmail.comAli: http://iamaliduncan.com, FB:/aliduncanbeseen, IG: @aliduncanbeseenErica: http://ericadanielle.com, FB:/ericadanielleovershares, IG @ericadanielleoversharesSupport the show (https://www.patreon.com/join/shekings)
In my own cries for others to wake up to my humanity and the humanity of other black and brown people, I learned that I had to wake up too. It's shocking at times how distant we can become from our fellow man. And the more distant we become from the other, the more distant we are from our own true grace.In this episode of Stories to Wake up To, I talk about the shift that the world is experiencing with the Black Lives Matter movement and my own evolution on the subject.-------------Work with us or reach out to us with inquiries, questions....and complaints (which we will likely ignore with love):Email: theshekings@gmail.comAli: http://iamaliduncan.com, FB:/aliduncanbeseen, IG: @aliduncanbeseenErica: http://ericadanielle.com, FB:/ericadanielleovershares, IG @ericadanielleoversharesSupport the show (https://www.patreon.com/join/shekings)
In this episode, we speak with the author of Get Your Head Out of Your Asana, Jason Revere, about his spiritual journey, his take on the yoga world, and his experience living life after his awakening.As you can guess by the name of his book, Jason is full of energy and unafraid to share his perspective on all things spirituality.He's also got a spectacular sense of humor, which helps when you're challenging the basis upon which most people live their lives.--------------You can find Jason on the Interwebs at:website: http://youcanyoga.nlfacebook: https://www.facebook.com/YouCanYogaAmsterdamWork with us or reach out to us with inquiries, questions....and complaints (which we will likely ignore with love):Email: theshekings@gmail.comAli: http://iamaliduncan.com, FB:/aliduncanbeseen, IG: @aliduncanbeseenErica: http://ericadanielle.com, FB:/ericadanielleovershares, IG @ericadanielleoversharesSupport the show (https://www.patreon.com/join/shekings)
Somehow, we humans can make anything complicated and exclusive.We create Gods that only prefer certain people.We develop spiritual practices that are the best and only spiritual practices that should be practiced.We limit and take ownership over the universal power that flows through us all.We make cliques of those who are spiritually advanced (the ones who get it, and those who misunderstand what spirituality really is (the ones don't get it).Well, this week Ali and Erica are over it. We're inviting all spiritual folks (ourselves included) to cut the shit. It's time to stop looking outward at all of the lost souls and start looking inward toward our own individual spiritual compasses.Because the truth is: life is the only spiritual practice we need. The spiritual evolution we are seeking is in each situation that presents itself to us on a moment-by-moment basis.Let now be the only spiritual practice you need.

One of the biggest reasons why we fail to reach our potential is that we believe that our potential is somewhere out there in the future. Even the generally accepted definition of potential makes it some shiny future object.But...what if your potential can only be achieved in this moment?What if the only way to create a future that you'll love is to move your butt without hesitation whenever the energy hits you, rising up to align with the highest expression of your being in this moment?Ali and Erica love to challenge how we as a society commonly understand certain ideas.We.Love.It.

Sometimes you've got to take a long, hard look at your life and admit that it's not what you want it to be.We do not do this to berate and guilt ourselves, rather we do it because the first step to changing things is to admit there is a problem. This week Erica and Ali take a look at why we fail to reach our potential moment after moment, year after year. So if you're dreams of yesterday are still your dreams for tomorrow, then this episode is for you.

We always have choices...even in uncertain times.Many times though, we forget how expansive our choices are. We limit ourselves based on what we think is possible. Based on past experiences. Based on what we believe we should be doing. We forget that we are limitless.We forget that we are supported by a force much greater than ourselves. Let me say that again. We are supported. Doesn't that feel good? Just the thought of it? This episode is inspired by a conversation that the amazing @luvvie had with her therapist about re-seeing her approach to being during these unprecedented times. When we first read Luvvie's Ajayi post about this conversation, we loved the sentiment that her therapist shared with her. It was #verySheKings. And when @randomlyseekinglife asked us to dive a bit deeper on this topic, we didn’t hesitate. Such a good one. Sink or Swim? But what about floating?Depressed or Determined? But what about trust?Floating is trusting.It is being held and supported.Remembering that the energy that you use to create is the energy you have to hold to keep the creation.Check out this episode to hear us explore what it would look like to approach life from the float state?--------------Work with us or reach out to us with inquiries, questions....and complaints (which we will likely ignore with love): Email: theshekings@gmail.comAli: http://iamaliduncan.com, FB:/aliduncanbeseen, IG: @aliduncanbeseenErica: http://ericadanielle.com, FB:/ericadanielleovershares, IG @ericadanielleoversharesSupport the show (https://www.patreon.com/join/shekings)
The name of this episode may be a bit facetious. But SheKings is all about treating “serious” things with inappropriate humor in order to get you to wake up to your potential and to live joyously. This week we are focused on the overwhelming tendency of people to police the actions of others (especially in the times we're living in).Tune in to this episode to be enlightened and encouraged to mind your fucking business and live a life so full of passion that it is easy to do so.

Is fear necessary? We often hear people talk about it as a motivator. For example, the fear of catching Coronavirus can motivate people to stay home. Is fear inevitable? We often hear people discuss fear as if certain situations would evoke fear in everyone. For example, you might lose your job...well of course you're worried and afraid. Listen, if you can't transcend fear then why not use it? We agree. But if there was a way to live free of fear...would you give it a try? This week we take a look at what it means to transcend fear and we give some advice on how you can take your first steps through the fearful thoughts that wreak havoc on your emotions and actions.

It doesn’t matter how spiritual you are, most of us have a way that we respond to stress and things we perceive to be scary - physically, economically, psychologically. Most of us wish our fear response was a bit more refined - e.g., not moving immediately to fight (for example, lashing out at others on social media or yelling at your partner for the slightest thing, flight (like turning to drugs and alcohol or checking out emotionally), or freeze (like focusing incessantly on “fixing” the issue without thinking it through and to the detriment of other needs). In this episode, Ali and I walk you through why we respond the way we do when shit gets real…and we help you to wake up to your own personal pattern of response to events that bring up fear and anxiety. Once you know your pattern, transcendence is possible…choice is possible. Have questions that you’d like us to address, worries that you’d like to discuss, know that Ali and I are 100% there for you all.

Let’s get naked and……no.Why are some of us so interested in tantra while others of us avoid it all together? Sting had a big impact on how the Western world views tantra. Years ago he talked about how tantra was the reason he could make love for hours and hours. But tantra is not about sex. Yes, it can be applied in the bedroom to deepen the connection with one's self and their partner.However, the power of tantra - while rooted in the physical - transcends the pleasure of the body. It is indeed one of the fastest ways to confront and heal old wounds and start to love yourself, truly and deeply.Join us as we talk about tantra, what tantra means and why we love it so much.

This week we address a listener question about what it means to be an empath and we loop in highly sensitive people (HSPs) just for the hell of it. Have you found yourself experiencing emotional ups and downs that seem completely unrelated to your own personal life experiences? Have you begun to notice that you are highly affected by other people's emotional states? If you answered yes to either of these questions, then this is the episode for you. ...but, as usual, this episode is filled with honesty (not necessarily facts - hahahaha) but definitely our definitions and unfiltered thoughts and experiences with empathy and HSPs. Because at the end of the day, no matter how sensitive we may be, we've got to figure out a way to function and function at our personal optimal levels. And don't worry, we give plenty of advice on just how to do this. -------------Work with us or reach out to us with inquiries, questions....and complaints (which we will likely ignore with love): Email: theshekings@gmail.comAli: http://iamaliduncan.com, FB:/aliduncanbeseen, IG: @aliduncanbeseenErica: http://ericadanielle.com, FB:/ericadanielleovershares, IG @ericadanielleoversharesSupport the show (https://www.patreon.com/join/shekings)
Here's the truth: we create boundaries to protect us from the things that hurt. We build boundaries to help us say in advance what we're afraid to say in the moment. But what if we use boundaries to help us wake up to the things that are important to us then let them go in order to allow presence and power to take hold in our lives. We spend our lives trying to avoid negative emotion. We spend our lives trying not to come off as inconsiderate, an asshole, or too direct. We attempt to set up rules for others to follow when we don't trust ourselves enough to speak our truth in the moment. We say things like, "I'm focusing on my health so please keep in mind that I won't be able to stay later than 6pm everyday." And when your boss doesn't remember or respect the boundary you've set, you get angry because here you are working late again. Wait!? Who's not respecting your boundaries?In this episode, we take a hard look at the many ways we erect walls around ourselves and try to put the responsibility for our well-being on others.

Why aren’t you growing? Why are you feeling stuck? Bored? Fearful?Why are the SheKings always talking about people changing things up? Well, there’s an epidemic in this world of staying with things that don’t make us happy because we’re so afraid of change. There’s an epidemic of asking a mind full of old ideas for new possibilities. In this episode, we suggest that it’s time to expand beyond old ideas and ways of being; it's time to build community, hire a coach, or go deeper within to meet your truth self and unlimited possibilities. -------------Work with us or reach out to us with inquiries, questions....and complaints (which we will likely ignore with love): Email: theshekings@gmail.comAli: http://iamaliduncan.com, FB:/aliduncanbeseen, IG: @aliduncanbeseenErica: http://ericadanielle.com, FB:/ericadanielleovershares, IG @ericadanielleoversharesSupport the show (https://www.patreon.com/join/shekings)
It's really a paradox that we all want things to be easy but deep down, we believe that things either cannot or should not be easy. It's crazy really, the truth of it. We're told to: "be responsible." And fun, ease, and joy are not apart of what we include in the description of responsible living, are they? Honestly, what do you think about when you think of responsibility? Probably ideas like: getting up early, working hard, no pain no gain. What a contradiction. What we truly want is diametrically opposed to how we're supposed to live. We're told to: "meet certain goals so that you can relax." But the relaxing part, well it never really comes. The rules change don't they? As soon as you reach one goal, surprise the next one is right behind it. Best selling authors who initially only wanted to be published are now scared to publish again because this one's gotta be better than the last. Stress to create something good. Stress around how it will be received. Stress when it is received well. Stress when it is received poorly. Stress to create again. Stress to hide your head in the sand. Geezus! When does it stop? Well, it doesn't...not until you decide for yourself that enough is actually enough. It stops when you decide to choose the path of joy, the path of ease, the road less traveled in this world full of sheep. -------------Work with us or reach out to us with inquiries, questions....and complaints (which we will likely ignore with love): Email: theshekings@gmail.comAli: http://iamaliduncan.com, FB:/aliduncanbeseen, IG: @aliduncanbeseenErica: http://ericadanielle.com, FB:/ericadanielleovershares, IG @ericadanielleoversharesSupport the show (https://www.patreon.com/join/shekings)
Soooo...are you afraid to be criticized? Or are you worried about what "they" will say if you show up and shine bright? In a world where it's sexy to criticize others behind their backs...In a world where there are actual trolls living in their moms' actual basements casting aspersions from behind a keyboard...It's no wonder people are constantly on edge when it comes to receiving criticism. But here's the deal: you've got to be willing to jump into the fire of criticism if you truly want to live. Maybe some of it's true. Maybe it will help you to evolve. Definitely being unafraid to receive it will help you to evolve.

In this episode, Ali and Erica discuss and distinguish between what we think about cultivating silence versus what it really means to do so. Many times we think about stillness/silence/emptiness as depression or a waste of productive time. But the truth is that inviting more silence into your silence tends to bring you closer to peace of mind.

Did you come to the spiritual path to help you deal with a problem in your life. Ali and Erica sure did. And we find that many of our clients are doing the same. A problem arises however when we take this concept too far. Many begin to believe (consciously or subconsciously) that "improvements" and adjustments to their spiritual practices will result in greater comfort in their physical lives. Stated differently, we start to think that if we could just become "better people" we would experience lives free of pain and suffering.

We’ve waited a while to cover this issue. We’ve spent years railing against the law of attraction as it is taught...with all these rules and complications. It's time we stop looking for a way to issure that life goes the way we want it to...there is no way to do so. Zip. Zero. Zilch. Join us on this episode of SheKings to learn our top 10 reason why the law of attraction is for the birds. Don’t worry, we give an alternative. Kind of.

Being crazy enough to live life with reckless abandon doesn't mean living life stupidly. It means being crazy enough to do what you're called to do. It means being present enough to live life fully - whatever you're doing. In this episode, we encourage you all to explore your joy rather than convincing yourself to be safe, secure (read that: boring, dead).

What happens when you wake up to the fact that you're only loving the "good parts" of yourself? How do you accept the shit you don't like: the smallness, the bitchiness, being overweight, hating certain aspects of your job, being a wife, a parent, a caregiver? We guarantee that for most people, when you say you love yourself, you're talking about the go-getter you, the inspired you, the compassionate you. But the truth is, there's a whole lot more to you than that. And until you learn how to embrace the "shitty" parts, you'll never know the wholeness and greatness that this life has to offer. This week we highlight the disconnect between what we say about loving ourselves and how we actually show up to love ourselves. And we leave with homework that is guaranteed to rock your world. Can't wait to hear your feedback and breakthroughs!Love, the SheKingsSupport the show (https://www.patreon.com/join/shekings)

Our internal patterns create external patterns in our worlds. Patterns in relationships can make us feel as if we are going around in circles. Same experience just with a different person or same experience with the same person on a different day. Life just keeps repeating itself. Once you notice the patterns that are happening internally and externally then you can begin to change the pattern.How does one change the pattern of giving up, pushing back, sabotaging and separating from others? Join us as we talk about just that!

When we say "I know" after something is pointed out to us, we shut down our ability to expand in that moment.When we have an open mind and look at people, situations and experiences as if we don't know, then we are open to being shown the unexpected. In those moments, our vision becomes more true. "I don't know" can come from a place of ego and defensiveness and that supports the walls that you are creating around you and boxing you in.When you are boxed in you have the same experiences from your past.Practice looking at life as new, as if you truly don't know how to get from point A to point B and get excited and trust that the journey will be perfect for your growth and edification.

In this episode, Erica and Ali discuss the ego and help you to recognize some toxic forms of the ego versus some "elevated" experiences. We also get into what it's like to be in an egoless state, a quiet mind place.In this episode, we mention: Rumi: He writes this gorgeous poem that captures Ego Transcendence: Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing,there is a field. I’ll meet you there.When the soul lies down in that grass,the world is too full to talk about.Ideas, language, even the phrase “each other”doesn’t make any sense.The breeze at dawn has secrets to tell you.Don’t go back to sleep.You must ask for what you really want.Don’t go back to sleep.People are going back and forth across the doorsillwhere the two worlds touch.The door is round and open.Don’t go back to sleep.Mooji - offers a meditation called "The Invitation."

What is the ego?How much of your life does it control?We are born into this world with a mind that helps us learn and interact in this world. Very soon however, it goes from helping to hurting. The ego, the voice in our head, eventually becomes incessant chatter remarking on the small things and the difficult things the good things and the bad things. The problem with the ego is that we listen so intently to it. We believe that it is us and that what it says is important and true. When we live this way, misery is certain. Because the mind is fickle.fickle /fĭk′əl/ adj.: Characterized by erratic changeableness or instability, especially with regard to affections or attachments; capricious.Beyond the ego is a truth that is stable, peaceful, and beautiful. We invite you to meet us there with this episode. Join us as we take a deeper look at that voice in your head, how to acknowledge it and finally dimish it.In this episode, we mention the book: The Untethered Soul, Michael A.

Maybe listen to this one while the sound track to Frozen plays in the background. That song always lifts our spirits and that upliftment might be needed as we start off our three-part series on letting it go.In this episode we talk about the pain and the disappointment of not getting what we had hoped for, dreamed about, and planned our life around.
