Stephanie, now a yoga center owner, life coach, mom, and spiritual seeker, joins Ashleigh to share her unique spiritual journey—one that started in a traditional Catholic upbringing and led her into the world of bhakti yoga, Eastern philosophy, and personal transformation.Together, Ashleigh and Stephanie dive into what it means to carve your own path in spirituality, the importance of honoring personal beliefs, and how to find meaning when your journey diverges from family and societal expectations. Stephanie opens up about discovering deeper spiritual connections in nature, meeting Vaishnava monks at university, exploring karma and reincarnation, and ultimately finding alignment in her own practice. The conversation also touches on the challenges—both personal and familial—of stepping away from familiar religious structures in search of something more authentic.Along the way, Ashleigh and Stephanie discuss the intersections between different spiritual and religious traditions, the power of rituals (from crystals to grape juice!), and how to create nourishing practices in everyday life. They reflect on motherhood, the importance of self-care, and embracing the evolving nature of spiritual identity.Key Moments: 07:51 "College Encounter with Vaishnava Monks"12:17 Reincarnation Resonates Beyond Beliefs18:09 Explaining God to a Child21:27 Intersecting Rituals Across Beliefs29:32 Hypocrisy in Religious Behavior34:54 "Changing Work Life Mindset"40:16 The Power of Listening42:41 "Nourish Yourself to Aid Others"51:54 Balancing Work, Family, and SolitudeAbout the guest : Stephanie Sato grew up in a Catholic family, attending church every Sunday and Catholic schools throughout her childhood.

In this episode of My Simplified Life, Michelle Glogovac and Stephanie Hockersmith, Michelle shares her candid reflections from her trip to the L.A. Times Festival of Books — from the chaos of traveling as moms to the unexpected empowerment found in spicy romance novels. They dive into real talk about managing expectations, navigating the pressure of influencer culture, and the importance of honoring your own season of life. Through laughter and honesty, Michelle and Stephanie remind listeners that personal growth doesn't have to look like anyone else's. You don't need to have it all figured out — you just need to stay true to your own path. What We're Talking About... Traveling as a parent can be challenging but rewarding. Spicy romance novels empower women to vocalize their desires. Managing expectations is crucial for personal well-being. Influencer culture can create unrealistic standards. It's important to own your choices and space in life. Everyone's journey is unique; comparison can be harmful. Embrace your season and the changes it brings. Self-improvement is a journey, not a destination. Stay true to yourself and your values.  Chapters 00:00 Introduction and Festival Anticipation 03:41 Experiencing the LA Times Festival of Books 06:37 Connecting with Authors and Panels 09:47 The Spicy Romance Genre 12:32 Empowerment Through Romance 15:35 Diverse Voices in Literature 18:40 Closing Thoughts and Future Reads 20:12 Exploring New Reads and Author Discoveries 23:07 Reflections on Book Festivals and Networking 26:00 Navigating Family Dynamics and Travel Challenges 29:07 Balancing Work and Family Life 32:16 Managing Health and Commitments 35:09 The Pressure of Expectations and Influencer Culture 38:14 Finding Personal Peace and Realistic Goals 41:12 The Reality of Self-Help and Personal Growth 44:09 Embracing Authenticity in Life and Work

Whether you're tuning in for the first time or revisiting this conversation, this episode will get you thinking about healing in a toxic culture.   In this episode, Morgan DeBaun sits down with renowned physician, author, and trauma expert, Dr. Gabor Maté, for a thought-provoking conversation about childhood trauma and attachment, the impact of societal norms on parenting, and the healing potential of psychedelics.   In this episode: 00:00 Introduction and Guest Overview 01:30 Dr. Gabor Maté's Early Life and Trauma 04:08 Impact of Early Trauma on Adult Behavior 04:56 The Struggles of a Medical Professional 08:22 Parenting Challenges in Modern Society 13:21 The Importance of Attachment in Child Development 21:30 Balancing Entrepreneurship and Parenting 24:03 Building Strong Parent-Child Relationships 24:38 The Impact of Technology on Children 25:36 Balancing Work and Parenting 28:51 The Importance of Secure Attachment 29:49 Understanding Individuation and Socialization 36:40 The Role of Psychedelics in Healing 45:16 Resources and Final Thoughts   Dr. Maté opens up about his own childhood experiences as a Jewish infant in occupied Hungary, where abandonment and trauma shaped his early years and later influenced his relationships with his children and career. Through personal reflection, Morgan shares her own experiences of growing up with a father whose demanding career kept him often away, and her tendency towards workaholism. She shares how she intends to do things differently with her own child.   As the discussion unfolds, Dr. Maté dives into his belief that we are living in a toxic culture, where stress and societal pressures take a toll on our mental and physical health. He highlights the direct link between our minds and bodies, particularly evident in marginalized groups facing systemic racism. Dr. Maté and Morgan discuss how it is in this context that parents are expected to raise children, and how cultural parenting norms often contradict intuitive caregiving practices, driven by economic necessities rather than emotional well-being.   The episode wraps up with an eye-opening discussion on the potential of psychedelics in healing trauma, with Dr. Maté sharing the emerging research and the need for better access to these powerful tools in mental health care.   To learn more about Dr. Gabor Maté's work discussed in this episode, check out his books The Myth of Normal: Trauma, Illness & Healing In A Toxic Culture and Hold On to Your Kids: Why Parents Need To Matter More Than Peers.   Tune in to this insightful episode, and make sure to leave a rating and review to show your support for these incredibly powerful conversations being had week after week!   More from Dr. Gabor Maté: https://drgabormate.com/ https://www.instagram.com/gabormatemd?igsh=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ==   Order Rewrite Your Rules: https://www.amazon.com/Rewrite-Your-Rules-Achieve-Freedom/dp/0593725050   Join the Newsletter for More Exclusive Content: https://worksmartprogram.ac-page.com/thejourneypodcast Make sure you are following Morgan's journey on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@morgandebaun?_ Follow us on Instagram: https://instagram.com/thejourneybymdb Produced by MicMoguls.

Prioritizing Family: The Key to True Wealth and SuccessWelcome back to the Roots to Riches podcast! I'm Justin Benton, your guide to unlocking ancient wisdom to boost your health and wealth. In today's episode, "Family First, Fortune Forever," I delve into the crucial topic of balancing business success with family priorities.Key Takeaways:1. Time Blocking with BoundariesI emphasize the importance of prioritizing family time over work. By blocking out non-negotiable time for family activities such as dinners, weekends, and weekday mornings, my calendar now reflects my true values, not just my ambitions.2. Involving Your Family in the MissionI share how integrating family into your business mission can create a sense of ownership and unity. Whether it's having your kids help with small tasks or discussing business challenges and wins, involving them makes them part of the dream rather than competitors for your time.3. Filtering Business DecisionsI now filter every business decision through one simple question: "Will this decision bless my family or burden them?" This approach ensures that my business choices align with my true priorities and values.Personal JourneyI recount a transformative exercise I did with Dr. Wyatt Woodsmall, where I listed my top five priorities and the time I spent on each. This exercise revealed a misalignment between my stated priorities and my actual time investment, prompting me to make significant changes.Practical AdviceI encourage listeners to perform the same exercise to evaluate their priorities and time allocation. By being honest with yourself, you can either adjust your time to match your priorities or re-evaluate what truly matters to you.Final ThoughtsI conclude by inviting listeners to reflect on whether their business is blessing or draining their family. For those needing guidance, I offer a free guide called the "Seven Day Family Wealth Reset," which can be obtained by texting me directly.Contact InformationListeners can reach out to me for the "Seven Day Family Wealth Reset" guide by texting 805-296-1525 with the message "Family Wealth Reset."Ask this Episode anything!TIMESTAMPS00:00:00 - Introduction and Prioritizing Family Time00:00:41 - Welcome to Roots to Riches00:01:04 - Episode Overview: Family First, Fortune Forever00:01:46 - Realizing Misaligned Priorities00:02:08 - Exercise: Identifying Top Priorities00:03:18 - Exercise: Prioritizing and Time Allocation00:04:44 - The Sacrifices for Work and Family00:05:40 - Transformational Realization00:06:10 - Reprioritizing Family Time00:07:04 - Balancing Work and Family Commitments00:08:08 - The Importance of Being Present00:09:00 - Family as the True Fortune00:09:12 - Key 1: Time Blocking with Boundaries00:10:06 - Implementing Time Blocking00:11:08 - Key 2: Involving Family in the Mission00:12:01 - Sharing Business with Family00:13:03 - Family Ownership in the Dream00:13:14 - Key 3: Filtering Business Decisions00:14:06 - Alignment with Your True Why00:15:08 - Doing Kingdom Work00:16:02 - Partnerships and Opportunities00:17:26 - Future Prospects and Alignment00:18:10 - Legacy Over Revenue00:18:32 - Invitation to Reflect on Business Impact00:19:07 - Free Guide: Seven Day Family Wealth Reset00:19:28 - Closing Remarks Thank you for tuning in to the Miracle Plant Podcast.

In this deeply vulnerable and powerful episode of Dom Sub Devotion, Andrew sits down with longtime friend Christina McBoyle (known on Instagram as @solar.feminine.arts), to explore the humbling, life-altering journey she has been walking through marriage, motherhood, and identity death. Christina shares intimately about her evolution from being a widely recognized feminine embodiment teacher to being initiated into living her teachings on an entirely new level. After marrying her husband Ryan within six weeks of meeting, becoming pregnant shortly after, and moving through the intense transformations of wifehood and motherhood, Christina realized that the very identity as a teacher and healer that had once empowered her was now standing in the way of the deeper love and union she craved. This conversation covers: • How Christina's years of teaching feminine embodiment eventually revealed hidden blind spots in her own life • The moment she realized her work was blocking her capacity to fully surrender in marriage • The subtle ways purpose and service can become hidden ego attachments for women • The painful but essential process of descending into deeper truth and authenticity • What it really feels like to give up old identities and allow love, devotion, and motherhood to fully reshape you • A raw discussion about women, work, purpose, survival mechanisms, and letting go • Why true union requires ego death—and how that's more liberating than terrifying • Practical wisdom for women feeling the tension between their careers and their deepest relational desires This is a rare, real, unscripted conversation between two people devoted to living what they teach—not performing it. If you are a woman navigating the gap between what you know and what you live, or if you're longing for a deeper experience of love, union, and surrender, this episode will speak straight to your soul. ⸻ Guest: Christina McBoyle Instagram: @solar.feminine.arts ⸻ Connect with Us: • Follow Andrew and Dawn on Instagram: @_infinitedevotion • Learn more at infinitedevotion.com If You Loved This Episode: • Share it with a friend who needs to hear this message. • Leave a 5-star review and tell us what landed for you. • Tag us on Instagram and share your favorite moment!
