Leave an Amazon Rating or Review for my New York Times Bestselling book, Make Money Easy!Check out the full episode: https://greatness.lnk.to/1417DMJay Shetty cuts through the noise with a metaphor that lands hard: toxic love is when your trauma becomes the oxygen for your relationship. You're literally breathing your baggage, your insecurities, your unhealed wounds into your partner's lungs and expecting them to somehow purify it all and give you back clean air. He contrasts this with conscious love, which isn't about waiting until you're perfectly healed or being selflessly devoted. It's about independently taking care of yourself so you can bring your best self to the relationship. And here's where most people get it wrong: toxic love turns into scorekeeping. Who does more around the house? Who loves more? Who sacrifices more? That's not teamwork. Conscious love is built on healthy agreements, not competition. Jay shares a real story about a friend whose partner struggled with porn addiction. The partner was vulnerable, honest, wanted to change. The choice was simple but brutal: leave because it affects you negatively, or stay and support them through genuine healing. They chose support. Now they have a healthy relationship. But Jay warns about the flip side: using someone's vulnerability as ammunition. When your partner opens up about their struggles and you throw it back at them during an argument, you're telling them never to be honest with you again.The shift Lewis identifies is crucial: conscious love means taking emotional responsibility instead of saying "you made me feel this way." It means communicating what you're healing, making your partner aware of your journey, and finding support together. Not because you're broken, but because healing is a journey and conscious love doesn't demand perfection before partnership. Jay's book 8 Rules of Love isn't about following his rules exactly, it's about inspiring couples to create their own agreements that work for their specific relationship. The foundation isn't romance or grand gestures. It's the unglamorous work of building agreements, staying aware of what you're healing, and never weaponizing the vulnerability your partner trusts you with. Because we all say we want honesty, but the moment someone shares something uncomfortable, we often reject it. That's how you push the other person away. If they're genuinely on a healing journey and they're transparent about it, that's worth supporting. Not forcing change on them, but being there as they do the work themselves.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Michael Shadlen is a professor of neuroscience in the Department of Neuroscience at Columbia University, where he's the principle investigator of the Shadlen Lab. If you study the neural basis of decision making, you already know Shadlen's extensive research, because you are constantly referring to it if you're not already in his lab doing the work. The name Shadlen adorns many many papers relating the behavior and neural activity during decision-making to mathematical models in the drift diffusion family of models. That's not the only work he is known for, As you may have gleaned from those little intro clips, Michael is with me today to discuss his account of what makes a thought conscious, in the hopes to inspire neuroscience research to eventually tackle the hard problem of consciousness - why and how we have subjective experience. But Mike's account isn't an account of just consciousness. It's an account of nonconscious thought and conscious thought, and how thoughts go from non-conscious to conscious His account is inspired by multiple sources and lines of reasoning. Partly, Shadlen refers to philosophical accounts of cognition by people like Marleau-Ponty and James Gibson, appreciating the embodied and ecological aspects of cognition. And much of his account derives from his own decades of research studying the neural basis of decision-making mostly using perceptual choice tasks where animals make eye movements to report their decisions. So we discuss some of that, including what we continue to learn about neurobiological, neurophysiological, and anatomical details of brains, and the possibility of AI consciousness, given Shadlen's account.

Just saw a video the other day. It was one of those “man on the street” things. The interviewer was asking passers-by what they thought of statements that had been made by a specific political person. Their responses - categorically rejected all of it Then the interviewer course corrected. Turns out the quotes they were sharing were not from the person they'd said. The quotes were actually from the political person who they said they supported. Again, across the board they changed their responses. Suddenly statements, that moments ago had been awful and rejected were now actually okay.Funny thing - this type of of behavior comes up when interacting with dogs too. That's where I go this week.In a world where what passes for radical honesty usually means someone is just letting things fly outta their pie-hole without much care for others, it's time for radically authentic conversation. Conscious communication is simple, but often isn't easy. That's why Cathy Brooks created Talk, Unleashed – a weekly podcast of radically honest conversation about — everything. Whether her own musings or in conversation with industry leaders, each episode invites curiosity. Curiosity not about what people do, but why they do it. Who they are and what makes them tick. It's about digging underneath to reveal the thing that is most true - that we are more alike than we are not. A mix of solo episodes where Cathy shares her insights and experience or Cathy engaged in conversation with fascinating humans doing amazing things. No matter the format - it's unvarnished, radically honest and entirely unleashed. This podcast compliments Unleashed Leadership, the coaching business through which Cathy works with symphony orchestras, corporate clients, and individuals to help them unleash and untether their leadership and connect with others in a way that truly engages.#personalpreference #choice #differences #accountability #leadership #dogbehavior #baddogbehavior #dogtraining #shiftingbehavior #brutalhonesty #radicalhonesty #consciouscommunication #leadership #Conversation #connection #TalkUnleashed #fiercecompassion #UnleashedConversation #UnleashedLeadership #FixYourEndofTheLeash

New intro, repeat episode of one I published almost exactly a year ago. While the examples I offer are a year old, the suggestions offered apply just as much to some of the chaos we're all experiencing this week as well. Hit play on this episode again, see what resonates, and I'll be back next week with some new thoughts.-In this episode of Regulate & Rewire, we explore how to navigate collective trauma and maintain mental health in a world that feels increasingly chaotic. From California wildfires to global conflicts, we discuss why our ancient nervous systems struggle with modern information overload and offer practical strategies for staying regulated while staying informed. Learn about the concept of "conscious oscillation," tips for healthy information consumption, and why finding moments of joy isn't just allowed - it's necessary for sustained resilience and impact.Three Takeaways:Our nervous systems evolved for a world of immediate, local threats - not the constant stream of global catastrophes we now face through modern technology. Understanding this mismatch helps explain why we feel overwhelmed and gives us permission to set boundaries.Balance Information and Regulation: Limit news consumption, take meaningful action when you can, and prioritize rest and joy to keep your nervous system balanced.Finding joy and allowing moments of lightness during dark times isn't privilege or denial - it's a biological necessity for nervous system regulation. Conscious oscillation between engagement and rest helps us stay resilient and effective.Website: https://www.regulatedliving.com/podcastEmail: amanda@regulatedliving.comInstagram: @amandaontheriseTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@amandaontherise

Dusan shares the remarkable origin story of Tony's Chocolonely, which began nearly twenty years ago with a Dutch journalist's investigation into child labor and exploitation in the cocoa industry, and grew into a global chocolate brand with a singular goal: to make chocolate 100 percent exploitation free. We explore how that founding purpose has been protected through a unique mission-lock governance structure, designed to ensure the company's values survive scale, leadership changes, and even future ownership transitions.The conversation dives deep into Tony's Open Chain, an open-source supply chain platform that now includes more than twenty mission allies, including brands like MrBeast's Feastables, all working collaboratively to transform the cocoa industry from the inside out. Dusan explains how paying a Living Income Reference Price—often more than 80 percent above market rates—creates real economic stability for farmers, and why full traceability from farm to bar is essential for accountability, not marketing.We also unpack the current cocoa crisis, including why prices have recently tripled, what that means for farmers on the ground, and why higher prices alone don't solve systemic exploitation. Along the way, Dusan reflects on his own leadership journey, transitioning from a senior role at Anheuser-Busch InBev to leading a purpose-driven organization that measures success not just by growth, but by impact.Together, we explore what it means to scale with soul—expanding into mass retailers like Walmart and Costco while maintaining premium quality, ethical standards, and radical transparency. This is a grounded and honest conversation about conscious leadership, systems change, and the courage required to challenge “business as usual” in pursuit of a more just and sustainable economy.Please subscribe on Apple Podcasts / Spotify / Stitcher, or wherever you get your podcasts.For transcripts and show notes, please go to: https://www.theconsciouscapitalists.comThis show is presented by Conscious Capitalism, Inc.

They are mirrors, initiations, and energetic feedback revealing where you are still withholding, over-giving, abandoning yourself, or settling.We'll talk about:Why dating is not about “finding the right person,” but refining your signalHow men reflect your boundaries, self-worth, and relationship to rest, safety, and leadershipThe difference between wanting something and embodying itWhy tolerating “almost” keeps you stuck manifesting from lackHow saying no to less is actually saying yes to moreThis episode is about shifting from longing to embodiment — and updating the order you're placing with the universe.MAGNETIC AFFIRMATIONS (1HR+): https://21-day-break-up-glow-up-challenge.teachable.com/p/making-mind-magnetic-affirmations-all-eyes-will-be-on-you-793498
Today Razib talks to Aneil Mallavarapu, a scientist and technology leader based in Austin, Texas, whose career bridges the fields of biochemistry, systems biology, and software engineering. He earned his doctorate in Biochemistry and Cell Biology from the University of California, and has held academic positions at Harvard Medical School, where he contributed to the Department of Systems Biology and developed the "Little b" programming language. Mallavarapu has transitioned from academic research into the tech and venture capital sectors, co-founding ventures such as Precise.ly and DeepDialog, and currently serving as a Managing Partner at Humain Ventures. He remains active in the scientific community through local initiatives like the Austin Science Network. Most of the conversation centers around Mallavarapu's arguments outlined in his Substack The Case Against Conscious AI - Why AI consciousness is inconsistent with physics. The core of his argument rests on the "Simultaneity Problem" and the "Hard Problem of Physics," which involve non-locality and the memorylessness of artificial intelligence phenomena. Though Mallavarapu believes that artificial intelligence holds great promise, and perhaps even "artificial general intelligence" (AGI) is feasible, he argues that this is a distinct issue from consciousness, which is a property of human minds. Razib also brings up the inverse case: could it be that many organisms that are not particular intelligence, also have consciousness? What does that imply for ethics of practices like eating meat?

Send me a some feedback!In Part Three of our ongoing series, Mike and Angie dive into one of the most foundational — and misunderstood — forces shaping relationships: the nervous system. This episode explores why so many relationships become survival-based, how unconscious emotional “APPs” get installed in the body, and what it actually takes to move into a conscious, sovereign partnership. This conversation is not about fixing your partner or avoiding triggers — it's about learning how to regulate your own internal world so connection no longer feels like a threat.Key TakeawaysThe nervous system is always trying to keep you alive, not happy. Much of relationship conflict comes from the body's instinct to seek familiarity and avoid past pain, not from what's actually happening in the present moment.Most emotional reactions are markers of the past, not indicators of truth. Triggers reveal stored emotional energy from earlier experiences that are still running in the background.Unconscious relationships outsource emotional regulation to the partner. When someone doesn't know how to work with their own nervous system, they try to get the other person to change so they can feel safe.Conscious relationships require nervous system regulation, not control. Learning how to process emotions internally removes the need to manipulate, demand, or fix the other person.Triggers are invitations for growth, not signs of failure. When met with awareness and tools, emotional reactions become gateways to deeper freedom and sovereignty.Noteable Quotes“When there's two people like us that were unregulated in our nervous system, then we're just fighting for survival.” “All emotion is our markers of the past. They have nothing to do with the present moment.” “You're trying to rearrange the external world so that your nervous system can be okay.” “Nobody can take that feeling away.” “If your mind and your emotions go up and down with your bank account, you are money's bitch.” Call to ActionIf this episode resonates, get a copy of Mike's latest book, Inner World, Outer World, featuring a powerful foreword by Angie, to deepen your understanding of how to step into a more conscious way of BEing.

Walk with me into a powerful story of loss, rebirth, and fierce integrity in this unforgettable episode of Intimate Conversations: Dark Night to Divine Light with Lopa van der Mersch, Founder and returning CEO of RASA, mother, and devoted student of Tibetan wisdom traditions. Lopa returns to the podcast for her first public conversation after years of deep initiation. She opens up about the season that dismantled everything she thought she was. Divorce, single motherhood, stepping away from leadership, and the sudden loss of her home in a devastating fire that erased nearly every external marker of identity. What followed was not collapse, but a profound rebirth. We explore how this identity death reshaped her leadership, her spirituality, and her relationship with compassion. Lopa shares how people pleasing and subtle compromise once shaped her path, and why returning as CEO required an uncompromising devotion to integrity, even when it did not make financial sense. Together, we dive into Tibetan wisdom, nervous system healing, and the difference between compassion that depletes and compassion that nourishes. Lopa reveals the daily rituals that now anchor her life, from unplugging at night and beginning mornings in practice, to allowing devotion to pulse between motherhood and leadership. We also talk about embodiment, pleasure, and beauty as necessities, not luxuries, and how RASA was born not as a product, but as a devotion to creating businesses that heal rather than harm, that nourish both people and the planet. We also talk about: -Identity death and rebuilding a life after everything falls away -Leading with integrity when compromise no longer feels possible -Tibetan wisdom as a refuge in grief, betrayal, and loss -Compassion that includes the self, not just others -Nervous system rituals that support sustainable leadership -Embodiment, sensual grounding, and pleasure as medicine -Conscious business as a path of healing and service This episode is a living transmission of what it means to lead from truth, trust yourself again, and build a life that is sane, humane, and deeply soul-led.

Ryan welcomes back Jordan Crowder of the Conscious Observer Podcast for a powerful conversation on the rise of AI, ancient prophecies, and humanity's awakening during the age of purification. From the pyramids and out-of-body experiences to faith, manifestation, and an unfolding reality shift, they explore what may lie ahead for consciousness itself.
Not sure whether this is just a human thing or a particularly American/Western thing these days, but it sure feels like there's a whole lot of overcorrection going on.And yet, there also are times where it feels like a more substantive response is warranted, but for some reason, it's just not there.The phrase - using a Band Aid on something that needs a tourniquet - landed in my ear the other day. It landed like a bag of wet cement. Because I began thinking about the extremes in both directions, how that relates to some of the colossal issues with dog behavior and how much of a problem it is with how people communicate these days.So join me on this week's wander in the woods as I ponder the topic.In a world where what passes for radical honesty usually means someone is just letting things fly outta their pie-hole without much care for others, it's time for radically authentic conversation.

Free will sounds easy until you look closely. Then it turns out to be smaller, stranger, and far more difficult than advertised. We take a cheerful scalpel to the idea that we're the conscious captains of our lives. With help from psychology experiments, philosophical detours we find out what's really going on. Examining stories involving casinos, concentration camps, meditation cushions, and more, we discover that most behaviour is automatic. Pain, habit, desire, and social pressure do most of the driving. Yet, whilst we can't choose our thoughts or impulses, we can choose how we respond to them. Viktor Frankl called it “the space between stimulus and response,” and it turns out to be the most valuable square inch of mental real estate you'll ever own. Cultivate that space, and you get resilience, wisdom, and the rare ability to not punch metaphorical holes in windows.

Today's guest is someone who followed a deep soul level pole toward one sacred plant cacao.

In this episode of Reiki from the Farm™, I sit down with the wonderful Walter Lübeck for a conversation that surprised even me with its depth and clarity. Together, we explore what it means to work with Artificial Intelligence consciously—not as something to fear or resist, but as a tool that can genuinely support our lives, our spiritual paths, and the healing work we're here to do.We talk about the moment each of us realized that AI could become a collaborator rather than a threat, and how this new technology can actually help us access deeper intuition, creativity, and alignment when used with intention. Walter brings his unique blend of wisdom, humour, and honesty to the discussion, and we explore everything from ethics and discernment to the role Reiki plays in guiding our relationship with AI.What I love about this conversation is how grounded and human it is. We don't romanticize technology, and we don't give it power it doesn't have. Instead, we talk about how to stay sovereign… how to stay conscious… and how to make choices that truly support our wellbeing, our businesses, and the greater good.If you're curious about AI, or if you've felt unsure about how it fits into your life or spiritual practice, this episode offers clarity, reassurance, and a beautiful reminder that we always get to choose how we engage with the world around us.And as always, Reiki holds the conversation—inviting us into a future where intuition and technology work together to uplift, heal, and inspire. And Walter shares a beautiful meditation with us at the end - you're going to love it!______Pam Allen-LeBlanc is a scientist, businesswoman, and Licensed Reiki Master Teacher (LRMT) with the International Center for Reiki Training.Get in Touch with Pam:pam@reikifromthefarm.comwww.reikifromthefarm.comRegister for our newsletter!InstagramFacebookYoutubepam@reikifromthefarm.com______Walter Lübeckinfo@walterluebeck.comHomepageSuper-podcast channel https://walterluebeckreikiandmore.supercast.com/Register for our newsletter!

Join the Guildwww.imnotquitting.com In this episode of the 'Becoming Thin Podcast,' host Chris Harold shares his personal weight loss journey and the importance of overcoming the urge to quit. He delves into the reasons why people typically abandon their weight loss efforts, attributing it to the failure of reconditioning the mind's 'automatic pilot.' Chris explains the conscious versus unconscious mind and emphasizes the need for a core-level change in lifestyle and habits for lasting results. He introduces five key steps to recondition the subconscious mind: repetition of ideas, activating the body, discussing ideas with supportive people, journaling, and modifying the environment. Chris also elaborates on the importance of community support and the Guild of Champions, a community designed to help individuals recondition their automatic pilot and achieve their weight loss goals sustainably. He concludes by urging listeners to be mindful of their automatic behaviors in daily life.00:00 Introduction and Host's Weight Loss Journey01:12 The Reality of Temporary Changes01:59 Understanding Quitting and Its Triggers04:21 The Role of the Conscious and Unconscious Mind12:51 Reconditioning Your Automatic Pilot18:00 Learning Impulse Control18:44 The Importance of Supportive People20:24 The Power of Journaling21:59 Modifying Your Environment24:12 Challenges of Intuitive Eating29:54 The Final Stages of Weight Loss35:01 Introducing The Guild of Champions39:28 Final Thoughts and Call to Action
In a rare twist, Jason Goldberg takes the interviewer's seat and turns the conversation toward our dear host, Sebastian Naum Leon — entrepreneur, public speaker, and the inquisitive voice behind the top 3% global podcast Aware with Seb — to explore his personal journey, philosophy, and vision for conscious leadership. Throughout the episode, Seb reflects on integrating spirituality, business, and authenticity, showing how self-awareness, curiosity, and aligned action cultivate not just better leaders, but better humans. He speaks candidly about letting go of judgment, redefining success beyond performance, and building from purpose rather than pressure, offering listeners an intimate look at his values and long-term vision: a world where leadership is rooted in presence, connection, meaning, and joyful impact, and where conscious businesses catalyze a more human, alive way of living.Topics Discussed:Rapid Fire: Seb's Core BeliefsFrom God to Douche: Authentic RelationshipsSeb's Childhood & Family InfluenceEarly Interest in Psychology & EntrepreneurshipFirst Business & Consciousness in BusinessDiscovering & Leading CCLAIntegrating Spirituality and BusinessPractical Steps for Conscious BusinessThe Power of Vulnerability in LeadershipThe Conscious Edge FrameworkAwareness, Alignment, Meaning, and Joy at WorkCreating Meaning in Any JobTV Analogy: Severance & Work-Life SeparationRapid Fire: Vulnerability & SpiritualityImposter Syndrome & AuthenticityDelusion, Self-Belief, and Leadership ArchetypesTrue/False: Self-Awareness, Spiritual Bypass, and Limiting BeliefsSeb's Future: Speaking, Writing, and ImpactVision for a Wonderful WorldConnect with Jason on InstagramConnect with Sebastian on InstagramSebastianNaum.com
Burnout isn't about working too many hours. And imposter syndrome isn't a confidence problem. In this episode, I sit down with Garrett Wood, clinical hypnotherapist, executive functioning specialist, and founder of Gnosis Therapy, to unpack what's really happening beneath burnout, high masking, and the boom-and-bust cycle so many high achievers are stuck in. Garrett works with executives, founders, and entrepreneurs who want high performance without sacrificing their health, relationships, or peace of mind. His work is rooted in biopsychosocial science and nervous-system-first performance, helping leaders build success through their well-being—not at its expense. Together, we explore imposter syndrome, nervous system debt, misalignment, and why traditional fixes like mindset work, balance, or self-care often don't stick. This conversation offers a radically different—and deeply validating—lens on burnout and sustainable success. What You'll Learn in This Episode 1. Burnout Is Nervous System Debt (Not Weakness) Burnout happens when stress, pressure, and constant masking outweigh recovery and regulation. Your body has a bio-budget, and when withdrawals exceed deposits, burnout becomes inevitable—no matter how "resilient" you are. 2. Why Imposter Syndrome Persists for High Achievers Garrett explains why imposter syndrome often shows up in capable, high-performing people—and how it's tied to nervous system overload, attachment patterns, and identity pressure rather than lack of skill or experience. 3. The Power of Integration: Subconscious, Conscious & Somatic Lasting change doesn't come from mindset alone. Garrett's work integrates: Subconscious (clinical hypnotherapy) Conscious (outcome-based coaching) Somatic (body-based regulation) This is why change holds—even under pressure. 4. Burnout as Misalignment, Not Fragility People don't burn out because they're fragile. They burn out when there's a mismatch between their biology, beliefs, and environment. You can thrive at 80 hours or break at 40—alignment makes the difference. 5. The 7 Drivers of Sustainable Success Garrett walks through the seven areas that determine whether success feels energizing or depleting: Sensory intelligence Bio-budgets (energy, sleep, recovery) Emotional regulation Core beliefs Attachment patterns Values alignment Executive functioning strengths Burnout always lives in the gap between nervous system needs and environment across these dimensions. 6. Why "Balance" and Self-Care Don't Fix Burnout Many high achievers try downtime, vacations, boundaries, or mindset work—and still feel stuck. We talk about why these tools fail when they're not paired with nervous system calibration and identity alignment—and how recovery needs to be systematic, not accidental. Key Takeaways Burnout is nervous system debt, not personal failure Imposter syndrome is often physiological, not psychological Sustainable success is built through well-being, not sacrifice Alignment matters more than hours worked High performance can feel lighter, calmer, and more fulfilling Connect with Garrett Wood Website: https://www.gnosistherapy.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/gnosistherapy/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/gnosistherapy/
What does it truly mean to play a bigger game in life and business? In this powerful conversation, Mike Handcock shares his remarkable journey from becoming an orphan at 15 to rising as a global leader in conscious business, leadership, and thought leadership. His story is a testament to what's possible when resilience meets vision—and when we choose to think beyond survival and step into significance. Mike challenges listeners to expand their perspective, tap into their creative power, and recognize the responsibility that comes with influence. Through storytelling, ethical speaking, and conscious leadership, he illustrates how playing a bigger game isn't about ego or scale—it's about impact, legacy, and the lives we touch along the way. Together, we explore how self-awareness, collaboration, and values-driven leadership allow us to create meaningful change, build lasting businesses, and leave behind more than achievements—beautiful memories and a positive ripple effect. This episode is an invitation to stop playing small, believe in what's possible for you, and lead with intention, integrity, and heart. Key Takeaways Playing a bigger game starts with believing in your own potential Adversity can be a powerful catalyst for resilience and growth Conscious leadership creates lasting, positive change Storytelling expands influence and inspires action Ethics in speaking and leadership shape the future of the industry Creativity and legacy are deeply connected Sharing your story can create a ripple effect far beyond you True fulfillment comes from giving back and lifting others Influence is a responsibility—and a force for good At the end of the day, creating meaningful memories is what matters most Connect with Mike Handcock

Join Kamal, Mark and me for the Aryaa 2-Week Detox beginning January 26, 2026 at www.aryaaorganic.com. Mark and I will be sharing masterclass videos and recorded teachings, and I'll be doing the detox right alongside you for my third time! Step into a conversation that feels like a sacred masculine council with Kamal Hans and Mark Jenkins on this episode of Intimate Conversations: Dark Night to Divine Light. Two men from very different worlds, united by devotion, integrity, and embodied conscious leadership, join me for a powerful dialogue about purpose, alignment and what it truly means to live and lead from the heart. Kamal shares his courageous journey of walking away from massive financial success in the tobacco industry when his body and soul could no longer tolerate misalignment. That awakening led him to donate everything he had built and devote his life to creating Aryaa Organic, blending ancient Ayurvedic wisdom with modern science, intention, and frequency to create food as medicine. Mark opens up about his extraordinary rise from growing up in Brooklyn during the crack era to joining the Navy at 17yrs, and how physical transformation became the doorway to confidence, leadership and service. His path from training people for free while living in the projects to training celebrities like Beyonce and the late D'Angelo, is a living example of humility, grit and embodiment. Together, we explore why true wellness must be sustainable, why detoxing is about far more than food or weight loss, and how intimacy, vitality and aligned relationships are created from the inside out. We also talk about: -Walking away from success when it costs your soul -Turning money, status and achievement into service and purpose -Food as medicine through frequency, intention and sacred design -Embodiment as the foundation of confidence and leadership -Growing up in survival yet choosing a new path forward -Why fitness alone is not wellness without nervous system regulation -Detoxing emotional suppression, numbing behaviors and old coping patterns -Intimacy as an inside job and the power of embodied generosity -Conscious business, wellness and intimacy as one unified devotion This episode is an invitation to stop outsourcing worth to external success and invest in the inner architecture that creates meaning, vitality, and love. You can also explore Mark's work at www.markjenkinsmethod.com and receive a complimentary month of his online training when you begin the detox with us. ➡️ Go check out patreon.com/allanapratt for Exclusive content!

Send us a textNew year, same us. We have been on a bit of a hiatus as we have been navigating new cultural realities and showing up in real time for our communities. In this fresh episode of Terms of Service Podcast, we sit with hospitality leader Eric Schuster for a grounded and necessary conversation on conscious hospitality - not as a trend or talking point, but as a leadership responsibility rooted in accountability, awareness, and care.This dialogue explores what happens when hospitality is examined beyond guest experience and brand optics, and instead through the lived realities of the people who sustain it. Together, we unpack how legacy systems within hospitality have normalized burnout, emotional labor, and disposability and why intention alone is no longer enough to justify outcomes.Eric reflects candidly on leadership evolution, power dynamics, and the personal reckoning required to move from growth-at-all-costs thinking toward people-centered decision-making. We examine the structural roots of burnout in hospitality, challenging the industry's habit of framing exhaustion as an individual resilience issue rather than a design flaw. From wage structures and scheduling instability to the emotional toll of service work, this episode centers the human cost that is too often rendered invisible.The discussion also confronts the tension between capital, growth, and ethics; exploring what it means to say no, slow down, or redefine success when financial pressure conflicts with values. Eric speaks to the responsibility leaders carry when people's livelihoods are involved, and the importance of transparency, humility, and accountability in building trust across different verticals of leadership. This episode is not prescriptive, nor is it performative. This is a reflective, honest and necessary narrative asking a central question facing the industry today:If hospitality is built on care, who is responsible for caring for the people who make it possible?As always - we thank Blind Barber Chicago for hosting this necessary conversation.

What if your next leadership moment isn't about delivering… but about including? In today's episode, I share an unexpected lesson from a Keith Urban show finale that lit up a truth most high-achieving leaders forget under pressure: connection doesn't happen through perfection—it happens through participation. If you've been leading with “tight control” (or quietly performing for approval), this is your invitation back to presence, resonance, and real influence. In this episode, you'll learn: How to spot the moment you're “performing” in leadership instead of connecting Why intuition gets drowned out when comparison creeps in—and what to do instead Simple ways to invite participation so your leadership becomes a shared experience Timestamps/Chapter Guide: 00:00 Welcome + what Heart Glow CEO is about 00:01:55 The story: why a reality show finale became a leadership lesson 00:03:10 “They already won” — the habit of leapfrogging your wins 00:03:40 Cassidy's finale: talent, joy… and the subtle shift into doubt & comparison 00:05:10 Leadership nuance: authenticity vs. respecting the “ground you're serving on” 00:06:05 The regret moment: “I should have paid attention to what I already knew” (intuition) 00:07:30 Adam's difference: acknowledgment, invitation, eye contact, play 00:08:45 The core insight: performance vs. experience 00:09:35 “Connection doesn't happen through perfection. It happens through participation.” 00:10:30 Why people love helping dreams come true (and how this applies to leadership) 00:11:10 The paradox of conscious leadership: the more it's about others, the more impact you have 00:12:05 3 reflection questions to lead differently in 2026 00:13:00 Closing: “Breathe joy.” Key takeaways: Talent and credentials matter—but they don't create resonance on their own. Comparison is a signal: it often disconnects you from your intuition and your audience. Conscious leadership isn't a solo act. It's a shared experience built through inclusion. The goal isn't to be louder in 2026—it's to be more connected. Quote to remember:Connection doesn't happen through perfection. It happens through participation. Reflection questions: Where in your leadership could you invite more participation? What would change if your next conversation, presentation, or decision became a shared experience—not a performance? How might your leadership evolve if you trusted that connection, not control, creates real resonance? Next step:Choose one place this week to shift from performance to participation—a team meeting, a client call, a hard conversation—and experiment with inviting people in (not impressing them from the stage).

Last week I talked about stepping in sh*t.This week is about cleaning that sh*t up.Literally.If the metaphor of stepping in a pile of dog poop is metaphor for responsibility, then what does it mean to avoid tracking it around, cleaning it up and - most of all - paying attention to where I'm walking so I don't step in it in the first place.Perhaps an odd way to start of 2026, but there you have it.In a world where what passes for radical honesty usually means someone is just letting things fly outta their pie-hole without much care for others, it's time for radically authentic conversation. Conscious communication is simple, but often isn't easy. That's why Cathy Brooks created Talk, Unleashed – a weekly podcast of radically honest conversation about — everything. Whether her own musings or in conversation with industry leaders, each episode invites curiosity. Curiosity not about what people do, but why they do it. Who they are and what makes them tick. It's about digging underneath to reveal the thing that is most true - that we are more alike than we are not. A mix of solo episodes where Cathy shares her insights and experience or Cathy engaged in conversation with fascinating humans doing amazing things. No matter the format - it's unvarnished, radically honest and entirely unleashed. This podcast compliments Unleashed Leadership, the coaching business through which Cathy works with symphony orchestras, corporate clients, and individuals to help them unleash and untether their leadership and connect with others in a way that truly engages.#responsibility #accountability #leadership #cleaningupshit #dogbehavior #baddogbehavior #dogtraining #shiftingbehavior #brutalhonesty #radicalhonesty #consciouscommunication #leadership #Conversation #connection #TalkUnleashed #fiercecompassion #UnleashedConversation #UnleashedLeadership #FixYourEndofTheLeash
In this episode, we welcome Nicholas Janni, author of Leader as Healer, the Business Book of the Year in 2023, for a thoughtful conversation on reimagining leadership in an age of uncertainty and disruption.To see the full video podcast, check out the Conscious Capitalists YouTube channel hereNicholas challenges the dominant leader as the executor model and shares why relying solely on the thinking mind is no longer sufficient, and may even be harmful, for modern leadership. Drawing on his work with senior leaders around the world, he introduces a new framework rooted in embodied presence, emotional intelligence, and whole self awareness.The conversation explores the performance paradox of leadership and how slowing down, embracing vulnerability, and tuning into the body can actually strengthen decision making, resilience, and critical thinking. Nicholas also reflects on what it means to lead amid collapse and chaos, suggesting that deep presence, rather than control, is the capacity leaders most need today.Together, we examine how traditional notions of professionalism that exclude emotion undermine trust and team performance, and why personal healing work is closely connected to the ability to lead transformational change. Nicholas also shares practical and accessible embodiment practices leaders can use to stay grounded, connected, and effective throughout demanding workdays.Join us for an honest and engaging conversation that invites leaders to move beyond constant doing and reconnect with being, offering a timely and deeply human vision of leadership for the world we are navigating.If you enjoy this podcast, would you consider leaving a review on Apple Podcasts.

In this solo episode of The Wealthy Practitioner Podcast, Steph breaks down why setting bigger goals does not automatically lead to bigger results. The issue is not effort or discipline. It is whether your subconscious feels safe operating at the next level. She explains how the conscious mind sets goals, the subconscious mind protects familiarity, and how that disconnect creates self-sabotage, inconsistency, and the cycle of momentum followed by pullback. You will learn how the reticular activating system shapes what you notice, pursue, and tolerate, and why identity has to change before results do. This episode is for anyone who feels capable of more but keeps hitting the same ceiling, and is ready to stop pushing harder and start operating from a level that actually holds growth. Episode Breakdown 00:20 Conscious vs subconscious mind: why goal setting alone doesn't work 01:40 Safety, threat, and why growth feels chaotic 03:00 How expansion quietly triggers self-sabotage 04:15 The reticular activating system: your brain's filter for success 05:45 Identity before outcomes: why effort isn't the real lever 07:05 Waiting for the other shoe to drop (fear-based identity) 08:20 Intention → attention → evidence: how focus programs reality 09:35 Resistance as confirmation you're close to a quantum leap 10:55 Scarcity, attachment, and repelling what you want 11:55 "You don't get what you want, you get what you are" If you're feeling resistance or doubt right as you ask for more, that's not a sign to pull back. It's a sign your identity is being stretched to hold what's next. We'll be opening the doors to the only 90 Day Sprint we're hosting this year very soon.

What if the most powerful shift you could make as a leader wasn't another productivity hack—but simply learning to breathe? In this episode of Legendary Leaders, host Cathleen O'Sullivan sits down with Anthony Abbagnano—founder of the Alchemy of Breath and one of the world's leading voices in modern breathwork—whose calm presence and practical wisdom will make you rethink everything you thought you knew about resilience. Anthony shares why most of us have unlearned how to breathe properly, and why that disconnection costs us more than we realize. He opens up about his midlife crisis in Ibiza, the moment he realized he'd abandoned his inner child for sixty years, and how inner child work isn't just playfulness—it's reconciling with the wounded parts we left behind. With disarming warmth, he explains why trauma can be our teacher, how the difference between "reactive" and "creative" is just moving one letter, and why ten breaths before a meeting might be the most productive thing you do all day. Together, Cathleen and Anthony explore why we lose choice under stress, the neuroscience behind overwhelm, and how the Coherence breath—a simple five-second inhale, five-second exhale—can regulate your nervous system in five minutes. This conversation is for anyone racing through life, leading from chaos instead of calm, or wondering where they've been holding their breath—and what might happen if they finally let go. Episode Timeline: 00:00:46 Why most people have unlearned to breathe properly 00:06:08 Inner child work: beyond playfulness to reconciliation 00:07:35 Anthony's midlife crisis in Ibiza and creating "the bridge" process 00:13:17 How trauma takes our breath away and embeds in the body 00:17:06 Restoring choice to a choiceless moment 00:22:15 Outer Chaos, Inner Calm: navigating today's messy world 00:28:11 Reactive vs. creative: moving one letter to transform leadership 00:31:19 Building community: the five-year Italy experiment 00:42:28 Why Western society lives in shallow breathing 00:47:02 The gradient of choice: how stress shrinks our options 00:48:07 Ten breaths that transformed a hostile boardroom meeting 00:53:06 Meet, prevail, acknowledge, celebrate: the four stages of growth 00:57:41 How breath creates space for creativity in business 01:08:26 The Coherence breath: a live demonstration 01:19:53 Take a breath before you react (and do a random act of kindness) Key Takeaway: Trauma Takes Your Breath Away—Healing Means Taking It Back: When we're wounded, we literally lose our breath in that moment of impact. The body absorbs the shock and stores it as chronic tension or disease. But trauma isn't something to erase—it's something to learn from. Mo Gowdat surveyed 12,000 trauma survivors and 99% said they'd keep their trauma for the growth it brought. The work isn't forgetting the wounded parts; it's restoring choice to the moments where breath—and power—were taken away. One Breath Creates Space—And Space Creates Choice: Write out "reactive." Move the "C" to the front and you get "creative." That's what one breath does. Under stress, we self-lobotomize—exporting processing power to our amygdala, leaving us with only fight, flight, or freeze. But one conscious breath creates space between stimulus and response. Ten breaths before a meeting can transform hostility into harmony. It's not about fixing the problem—it's about polishing your lens so you can see solutions that were there all along. The Coherence Breath: Five In, Five Out, Five Minutes, Three Times a Day: Breathe in through your nose for five seconds, out for five seconds. This practice—used by military and SWAT teams worldwide—regulates your nervous system and becomes your automatic response to tension. After two weeks, it stops being something you "do" and becomes how you breathe. When panic hits? Extend your exhale to counter rising stress. Practice it when you're calm so you can reach for it when you're not. Inspire Literally Means to Bring In Spirit—That's What Leadership Looks Like: Four-fifths of neural messages go from body to brain, not the other way around. Your body knows things your mind hasn't figured out yet. Conscious breathing slows your frontal lobe and creates space for insight beyond thinking. You're not just calming down—you're accessing what Anthony calls "spiritual resources." That's when quantum shifts happen: when you stop trying to think your way through and start breathing your way into clarity. About Anthony Abbagnano: Anthony Abbagnano is a visionary healer, breathwork pioneer, and the founder of Alchemy of Breath, where a global community of over 100,000 seekers turns a biological reflex into a tool for radical transformation. A former international entrepreneur—only to walk away from the corporate world to study under masters in India and the Amazon. He's trained facilitators in 40+ countries and shared stages with everyone from Deepak Chopra to Gabor Maté. His latest book, Outer Chaos, Inner Calm, explores trauma, addiction, and the art of "self-remembering," weaving in the philosophical influence of his uncle. Anthony teaches that "the breath is the bridge" to our forgotten parts, and that in a world designed to keep us in a state of "fight or flight," the most revolutionary act you can take is a conscious inhale.

Conscious Accomplishment: How Inner Growth Shapes What We Create In The World with Scott BrittonWhat happens when you stop treating spiritual growth and achievement as separate pursuits and begin to see them as part of one coherent path?In this week's episode of the Sacred Changemakers Podcast, I'm joined by Scott Britton, entrepreneur, author, community builder, CEO of Conscious Talent, and host of the EvolutionFM podcast. Scott's journey began in the high-pressure world of tech, where he co-founded Troops, later acquired by Salesforce. Outwardly, he had all the markers of success. Inwardly, something else was stirring.Our conversation traces the pivotal moments that led Scott to rethink accomplishment altogether, not as a race to the top, but as a practice of becoming. His work, captured in his book Conscious Accomplishment, offers a grounded, practical way to integrate inner development with the very real demands of building, leading, and making an impact in the world.Together, we explore the patterns that shape us, the disturbances that wake us up, and why the fuel behind our ambition matters far more than we realise. Scott brings a refreshing clarity to the intersection of consciousness and creativity, showing how inner awareness doesn't pull us away from action, but actually strengthens how we move through the world.This is a conversation for anyone who has ever questioned the traditional definitions of success… for anyone who has hit their goals and still wondered, “Is this it?”… and for every coach and changemaker seeking a more coherent way to live, lead, and create.Key TakeawaysWhy the old dichotomy between spiritual development and achievement no longer serves us.How disturbances and emotional triggers can become profound teachers.Why patterns, not circumstances, drive most of our suffering—and how to work with them.The practice of Self Repatterning and its role in shifting consciousness.How to integrate inner work into leadership and daily life without compartmentalising.About Scott BrittonScott Britton is an entrepreneur, author, and community builder. He is the CEO of Conscious Talent, host of the EvolutionFM podcast, and author of Conscious Accomplishment, a book that challenges the belief that spiritual growth and achievement must compete with one another. Prior to this work, Scott co-founded Troops, a software company acquired by Salesforce in 2022. His work brings together personal development, consciousness, and practical execution—helping people create meaningful impact while staying connected to their inner truth.Learn More About Today's GuestConscious Talent website ****→ https://www.conscioustalent.com/Scott's book, Conscious Accomplishment → https://amzn.to/3MgoLsvScott on Linkedin → https://www.linkedin.com/in/jscottbritton/Scott's Podcast, EvolutionFM →

In Healthy Waves, host Yusuf sits down with Dr. Jonathan Locust Jr. to unpack what burnout reveals that “success” can hide, and how consciousness practices can support a real life reset. They get practical about early warning signals, inner guidance, and protecting yourself when you are vulnerable and healing. This episode is for anyone feeling drained, reactive, or stuck in high achieving mode while quietly running out of energy.
