Wounded healers (a.k.a the Chiron archetype) desire to help heal others because they have experienced deep traumatic experiences themselves. Tesa Baum's guest is Lisa Tahir, a wonderful author endorsed by none other than His Holiness, the 14th Dalai Lama. Lisa and Tesa discuss how we should understand our inner Chiron and how we should give that wounded part of ourselves the love, attention, and gentleness it needs instead of our judgment. Because if we're not caring and forgiving towards ourselves, we'll find it difficult to be caring and forgiving towards someone else. Join in the conversation and learn more about the concept of time and age, why we need to share our vulnerability with others, and how the most important time we have is our current lifetime.Love the show?

There is a lot in life that we cannot control, but saying that doesn't minimize the immensity of what we do have control over. The laws of the universe may be immutable, but understanding our place as co-creators means we can see them not as constraints, but as tools that we can use to live life in our own terms (to a certain extent, at least). It is this great paradox of life that Hans Wilhelm tries to explain through his videos at LIFEexplained.com. A successful illustrator of over 200 books and creator of over 100 YouTube videos, Hans knows what it's like to follow his passion, but he understands that passion is not everything. Instead, he understands that love is what binds us with the universe. It is the universe. Indeed, it is us. In this short but informative conversation with Tesa Baum, he goes deep into some of the most relevant universal laws that affect our lives every day. From the Law of Projection to the Law of Attraction, from karmic forces to the Akashic Field, everything Hans explains in this episode will allow you to connect the dots of this seemingly chaotic and uncoordinated puzzle that we call life.Love the show?

Most, if not all, people look at life, and they're always striving for the ups but afraid of the downs. Michael Rosenbaum, however, has a whole different way of looking at these zigzags of life. Michael is a transformational hypnotherapist and alternative healer who specializes in a holistic approach, which includes the mind, emotions, and the physical health of the body. Taking some time off his schedule, he chats with Tesa Baum about the different processes and perspectives on life he has learned over the years, one, in particular, being that people are “human beings,” and as such, have both the “human” part where all the zigzag happens and the “being” part which is the constant – and that we should embrace both.Love the show?
