The Lights at The Roundtable

Change is the only constant in life and our ability to adapt and recalculate determines how we flow with life. If we resist and try to control, we create disharmony within. We must accept and shift to remain in the divine flow of inner peace. With that being said, it is with a heavy heart that we would like to inform you that Eric Dixon will no longer be apart of the Roundtable. He is getting ready to step into fatherhood and he has decided that it is time for him to shift. We wish him all the best as a new dad and perhaps some future appearances as a guest to share how fatherhood is treating him. We will also be shifting, and going a new direction. We ask that you are patient as logistics are being worked out on how to best shift to keep this podcast space moving forward. We're so grateful to have shared these past two years with you and look forward to sharing our light with you again soon!
