Spirit Switchboard Episode #134 Nov.14th, 2025 Awkward Awakening: Finding Your Way Home Guest: Scott Guerin Spirit Switchboard welcomes Dr. Scott Guerin, award-winning author, psychologist, and spiritual explorer, for a fascinating conversation about his newest book, Awkward Awakening: Finding Your Way Home. We'll dive into why so many people are suddenly waking up spiritually, what to do when that awakening feels…well, awkward, and how to navigate big ideas like our divine nature, oneness, and even our wider cosmic connections. If you've ever thought “Something's happening—now what?”, this episode will help you ground, make sense of the shift, and find your way home to yourself. Guest Bio: The driving force behind Dr. Scott Guerin's life has been his passion for unraveling the mysteries of God, Universe, and Source, and the intricate tapestry of their relationship with humanity. A distinguished author, educator, and retired healthcare professional, Scott is committed to the exploration of spiritual development. With two master's degrees and a doctorate in human development with a focus on spiritual development, Scott's journey has been a remarkable one that delves into the profound realms of the human spirit. His popular Angel in Training series describes how society has begun to shift from organized religion to spirituality. Through it, Scott shares his experiences over decades of pursuing a spiritual life, resulting in three books, A Spiritual Journey and 12 Lessons, that document his journey to spiritual freedom. His conclusion is that we are all angels in training— eternal, connected, and capable beyond belief. His new book, Looking for Angels: A Guide to Understanding and Connecting with Angels was written by Dr. Guerin and renowned intuitive Nichole Bigley, this book shares the history of angels throughout religion, science, and psychology. In addition, detailed instructions are provided to help you connect with your spirit team. Scott's twenty-three-year tenure as an adjunct professor in psychology at Kean University in New Jersey allows him to impart wisdom and knowledge to countless eager minds, helping them foster a deeper understanding of human psychology and spirituality. Scott's insights into spiritual development have been covered in top publications such as the Chicago Tribune, Population Health Management, Thrive Global, U.S. News and World Report, Real Simple, and many more.

Learn how to build transformational partnerships that scale your business beyond seven figures Transformational partnerships represent one of the most powerful momentum-building strategies available to entrepreneurs today, yet 95% of business owners are stuck in the old "send me leads" mentality that delivers zero long-term value. In this episode, I dive deep into the strategy that separates seven-figure businesses from eight and nine-figure powerhouses - the art of creating value-driven partnerships that solve real problems for everyone involved. This isn't about simple affiliate relationships or transactional lead swaps; it's about building strategic alliances that create predictable growth momentum and leave your competitors trailing in your wake. My co-founder and head of partnerships, Zach Burkes, joins me to break down exactly how we've structured our partnership program at Predictable Profits. Zach is a serial entrepreneur who started his first company at 23 and co-founded a multi-million dollar business before joining our team. As a former curator of Sacramento Entrepreneurs and member of both Global Shapers and the invite-only Young Entrepreneur Council, Zach brings serious strategic thinking to partnership development. His insights on business growth have been featured in Fox Business, Inc., SUCCESS, and the Chicago Tribune, making him the perfect person to reveal the partnership strategies that actually move the needle. KEY TAKEAWAYS: Most partnerships fail because they're purely transactional "send me leads" relationships with no real value exchange or long-term strategy. Transformational partnerships focus on solving meaningful problems for your partner rather than just asking what's in it for you. Start your partner search by examining who your current clients already work with in complementary ways. Look through your own credit card expenses to identify vendors you already trust and spend money with regularly. The best partnerships create triple-win scenarios that benefit you, your partner, and the end customer simultaneously. Quality partnerships can improve client retention rates by solving different problems than what you currently address. One strong partner can deliver consistent, predictable deal flow day after day, week after week, month after month. Strategic partnerships provide momentum that acts as a protective layer against AI disruption in the buyer's journey. Growing your business is hard, but it doesn't have to be. In this podcast, we will be discussing top level strategies for both growing and expanding your business beyond seven figures. The show will feature a mix of pure content and expert interviews to present key concepts and fundamental topics in a variety of different formats. We believe that this format will enable our listeners to learn the most from the show, implement more in their businesses, and get real value out of the podcast. Enjoy the show. Please remember to rate, review and subscribe to the podcast so you don't miss any future episodes. Your support and reviews are important and help us to grow and improve the show.

Based in New York City, Carol prefers to leave the studio and seek out the immediacy of city life, whether sidewalks, parks, boxing studios, or Coney Island. In this conversation, Carol Fabricatore shares her extensive experience as a professional illustrator and how she teaches advanced MFA students to advance on their creative journey. She talks about the mystery of capturing motion and energy in drawing, the role of fearlessness in artistic practice, and the transformative journey of students in MFA programs. She emphasizes the value of leaving the computer and drawing by hand, the necessity of experimenting and taking risks, and the significance of narrative and storytelling in art. Carol encourages even experienced artists to explore beyond their comfort zones, leave their existing style behind, and pursue a creative journey toward new ways of seeing and working. Carol began her career in editorial and book illustration, with work appearing in The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, and The Chicago Tribune. Over the years, her practice has expanded into fine art, where she combines acrylic and gouache to capture both the complexity and vulnerability of human experience. With a BFA from Parsons School of Design and an MFA from the School of Visual Arts, Carol has spent more than two decades teaching narrative drawing.

In the early morning hours of July 14, 1966, Chicago police responded to a call about a woman screaming for help at a townhouse in Chicago's Jeffery Manor neighborhood. When they arrived, they found student nurse Cora Amurao outside the home she shared with eight other student nurses, all of whom had been strangled or stabbed that night by an unknown intruder, while Cora hid underneath her bed. Considered at the time to be a “crime of the century,” the student nurse murders shocked and terrified Chicago residents all across the city. Not only had one man managed to brutally murder eight people, but he had also managed to escape and was loose somewhere in the city. At the time, racially motivated riots had broken out across the city, making the already-burdened Chicago Police Department even more strained when it came to investigating the case.After an intense manhunt that lasted several days, investigators arrested Richard Speck, a twenty-four-year-old unemployed drifter with a criminal history. There was a strong amount of evidence that linked Speck directly to the murders, including his own confession, so when he went to trial, his lawyer tried unsuccessfully to argue Speck was not legally sane at the time of the murders. Unfortunately, the truth was something far worse: Speck killed eight women for no reason whatsoever.ReferencesAltman, Jack, and Marvin Ziporyn. 1967.

In this workshop from the 2024 Rooted Conference in Dallas, Syler Thomas reflects on the complex but beautiful intersection of family and ministry. Drawing from years of personal experience, Syler shares four key insights: 1) God will use your family to bless your ministry, 2) God will use your ministry to bless your family, 3) You must intentionally define healthy boundaries for your family, 4) When sharing about your kids, get their permission—and give them space to just be kids, especially if they're in your youth group.

Melissa Bank, who passed away in 2022, was a fabulous writer and an incredible person. We met a few times in person, out here in Southern California when we were both speakers at the Literary Guild, and in NYC when I traveled there for conferences. She came on the show a couple of times, for Girls' Guide to Hunting and Fishing and The Wonder Spot. Her output was modest though her books became bestsellers. She received an MFA from Cornell University and won the Nelson Algren Award for short fiction from the Chicago Tribune. I'll always remember when I asked her to talk about how to write a novel, she said, “I don't know how to write a novel.” What she knew how to do, she was, was write stories. Stories became chapters and chapters become a book. If you've never read these two books, check them out. My guess is you will become a fan.

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for October 5, 2025 is: sonorous • SAH-nuh-rus • adjective Sonorous is an adjective used in formal speech and writing to describe something that has a deep, loud, and pleasant sound. Sonorous can also mean “producing sound (when struck)” and “imposing or impressive in effect or style.” // The baritone's deep, sonorous voice cut through the din of the crowd, the voices immediately halting their conversations to listen more intently. See the entry > Examples: “The sonorous notes of a modern pipe organ were the soundtrack to my tour, enhancing the sense of reverence the cathedral inspires.” — Tracey Teo, The Chicago Tribune, 11 Sept. 2024 Did you know? If a tree falls in a forest and no one is around to hear it, is it sonorous? Don't be thrown off by the subtle tweak in this classic conundrum—which usually ends with “does it make a sound?”—it's still the same question. Sonorous, in its oldest sense, simply describes things that make a sound when struck (the word's Latin ancestor, sonorus, is related to sonus, meaning “sound”). By this definition, felled firs, windblown willows, etc., are all sonorous. A desktop tapped by a pencil eraser wouldn't normally be described as sonorous, however. The word is usually reserved for things that make a deep, loud, booming, or echoing sound—think timpanis (or toppling timber), not tables. Sonorous is also frequently used to describe sounds themselves, as well as voices, that are deep, loud, and pleasant. And as sonorous sounds often cause one to sit up and take notice, sonorous can also mean “imposing or impressive in effect or style,” as when describing particularly affecting speech or prose.
