What does it mean to truly know Spirit? To believe in something greater—and to prove it? This week, I sit down with evidential medium and intuitive coach Ann, whose life has been anything but ordinary. From her earliest years, she experienced visits from Spirit and had an innate knowing about people and animals—but it took years to understand her gifts. And even more courage to honor them. After a successful corporate career, Ann followed her calling into the world of mediumship and healing. Her journey led her across the globe—from rigorous testing protocols to the Arthur Findlay College in England, where she finally found her spiritual home. In this conversation, we talk about:

Introduction Welcome back to Higher Density Living! After a brief hiatus, hosts Alexander McCaig and Jason Rigby reunite in the studio, buzzing with life's latest revelations. Jason returns from a European adventure, while Alexander steps into fatherhood with the birth of his son, Gabrael. Together, they unpack the profound alchemy of parenting—blending raw spiritual awe with biological evolution. This episode, Part 1 of a two-part series, invites listeners to explore creation's edge, where innocence meets potential and exhaustion reveals divinity. Hosts Bio Alexander McCaig: Co-host of HDL, a consciousness seeker and new father, sharing transformative insights from his journey into parenthood. Jason Rigby: Co-host, spiritual guide, and father, back from a European trip, weaving travel tales with deep reflections on the human condition. Key Discussion Points 1. The Return and Life Updates Jason kicks off: “We're back! My gosh, it's been some time. You've really been gone—you've been busy.” Alexander: “I've been gone ‘cause I had a newborn recently—one of the most transformational experiences of my entire life.” Jason: “You were in Europe too—Napoleon, Corsica. But yeah, we're both fathers now. Kind of wow, right?” 2. Fatherhood as Creation's Mirror Alexander: “The power of creation at the human level—another human growing inside a human because two came together. It's not just physical, it's deeply spiritual.” Jason: “It's a symbolization of creation growth—innocence and potential, that's all that's there.” A renewal moment: The newborn reflects creation's essence—pure, unfiltered, and brimming with possibility. 3. Innocence and Potential in Newborns Jason: “What I love from a spiritual perspective is seeing innocence and potential—so beautiful, we forget it.” Alexander: “They're helpless, needing 100% of your attention—like tending the most delicate crops.” Jason: “They're not desensitized like us—they see the world fresh, and we can't limit that.” 4. The Responsibility of Self-Awareness Alexander: “You need self-control and self-awareness to not impress your stifled energy onto the child.” Jason: “Everything you bring to their care opens their potential—or stifles it. There's two options.” Alexander: “You'd want the maximum and the best—hoping they take your best and step above you. That's evolution's point.” 5. Biological Evolution in Parents Jason: “Parents undergo shocking transformations—gray matter increases, prefrontal cortex and hypothalamus grow for bonding.” Alexander: “Oxytocin's through the roof—your senses max out, supercharging your brain.” Jason: “Evolution doesn't stop; having a kid accelerates it for both parent and child.” 6. Sanctification Through Chaos Jason: “Sleepless nights and constant care—it's sanctifying, a space for divine presence.” Alexander: “Try this: Use the newborn as a candle—gaze into their eyes silently. You'll be shocked how long they hold your attention.” Jason: “It's pure connection—a meditation.” 7. The Energy of Naming (Gabrael's Story) Alexander explains naming his son Gabrael Rowin: “Energy in names matters—spelling and meaning align with creation's patterns.” Why “Gabrael” (AEL spelling): “An older, primordial form meaning ‘might of creation,' synced with birth timing and Chaldean numerology.” Rowan: “‘One who lives in righteousness'—congruent energy for his potential.” Jason: “I love that—it's not just a name, it's intentional energy.” 8. Awe and Exhaustion as Spiritual Gifts Jason: “Why do we feel awe in exhaustion after birth?” Alexander: “It's creation reminding you of true purpose—a visceral truth you've ignored, demanding your attention.” Alexander: “You could feel this awe every moment if you paid attention, but the baby forces it. Look at the raw power and beauty.” Memorable Quotes “The power of creation at the human level—it's a renewal.” – Alexander “Innocence and potential—that's all that's there in a newborn.” – Jason “Your brain evolves as much as the child's—evolution doesn't stop.” – Jason “Creation wakes you up: Look at the raw power and beauty of this.” – Alexander Resources Mentioned HDL Podcast Archives: Explore all episodes at higherdensityliving.com Coming Soon: Part 2 of this fatherhood series—stay tuned!

In this episode, I chat with Dr. Pedram Shojai to dive into the fascinating connection between your gut and your overall health. We break down neuroception — how your body subconsciously scans for safety — and why it plays such a critical role in healing and performance. We get into the gut's “second brain,” the enteric nervous system, and how it drives your physical and mental well-being without you even realizing it. Dr. Shojai also shares real-world insights on tackling dysbiosis, understanding gut-immune symbiosis, and how simple lifestyle shifts can radically improve your health. If you've ever wondered how stress, gut health, and the nervous system all tie together — and how to actually use that knowledge to feel better — this is an episode you won't want to miss. Key Takeaways: Understanding Neuroception: Neuroception refers to the subconscious detection of safety or threat in the body, playing a crucial role in both gut health and overall well-being. Gut as an Immune Organ: The gut houses the majority of the body's immune cells, acting as a critical barrier between the inside of the body and external threats. Role of Stress in Gut Health: Chronic stress can disrupt gut microbiota, leading to issues like dysbiosis and gut permeability, thereby affecting mental health. Food Sensitivities: Identifying and avoiding food sensitivities can prevent chronic inflammation, leading to better overall health. Holistic Approaches to Wellness: Emphasizing mind-body practices, such as meditation and breath work, can improve gut health by promoting a balanced parasympathetic state. More About Dr. Pedram Shojai: Dr. Pedram Shojai is a man with many titles. He is the founder and director of The Urban Monk Academy. He's the NYT Best Sellingauthor of the books Rise and Shine, The Urban Monk, The Art ofStopping Time, Inner Alchemy, Exhausted, Trauma, Focus, andConscious Parenting.He's the producer of the movies Vitality, Origins, Prosperity, and TheGreat Heist and the docuseries: Interconnected, Gateway to Health,Exhausted, Trauma, Conscious Parenting, Hormones Health & Harmony, and Gut Check.He's the host of“The Urban Monk” podcast and is a key influencer in the health and personal development space.He's a prominent physician in the functional medicine space and is known for his ability to bring people together around ideas that matter. oing all this, he's a chill guy who now lives up in the mountains and values his days on how much time he gets with his family.

Send us a textIn this episode, I'm joined by Melani Ladygo to explore the RIE approach — a respectful, relationship-based way of communicating with children from infancy onward. Developed by Magda Gerber in the late 1970s, RIE (Resources for Infant Educarers) is built on the idea that even the youngest babies deserve to be treated as capable individuals, with mutual respect at the core.Melani shares how RIE gives parents a practical framework for setting boundaries without being either too harsh or too permissive. We talk about what respectful caregiving actually looks like with infants and toddlers, how to respond to challenging behaviors like hitting, biting, and tantrums, and why staying calm and connected matters so much — even when emotions run high.If you're looking for a parenting approach that blends empathy, clear boundaries, and authentic connection, this conversation will offer both inspiration and real-world tools you can start using right away.
Raising an empowered child isn't about giving them everything — it's about teaching them to find strength within.

What if the journey of parenting began long before your baby is even born? In this heartfelt and eye-opening episode, Dr. Sonal Jain Jayaswal takes us through the practice of Garbh Sanskar—a timeless tradition that combines ancient Indian wisdom with the latest in medical science to nurture babies right from the womb. Drawing from her own emotional journey with conception, she opens up about the challenges, hopes, and lessons that shaped her path.Dr. Sonal reminds us that pregnancy isn't more than just a physical experience—it's deeply emotional and spiritual too. From the importance of what you eat to how you feel, everything can influence the little life growing inside you. She talks about why local, seasonal food, stress-free living, and emotional wellbeing are gifts for the next generation.She also touches on how the Bhagavad Gita can serve as a spiritual companion during pregnancy, helping women find strength, peace, and purpose in the process of becoming mothers.This episode is a gentle yet powerful reminder: babies don't just need love after they're born—they need it while they're growing inside you too.Chapters00:00 Highlights01:58 Introduction to Garbh Sanskar and Dr. Sonal Jain Jayaswal04:38 The Journey of Conception and Ancient Wisdom07:48 The Science Behind Garbh Sanskar09:02 The Importance of Garbh Sanskar for Future Generations12:24 Practical Steps for Expecting Mothers16:28 Emotional Well-being During Pregnancy19:29 Nutrition and Dietary Tips for Expecting Mothers29:58 Parenting and Nurturing Post-Birth35:42 Recommended Readings for Expecting MothersConnect with UsMohua Chinappa: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mohua-chinappa/The Mohua Show: https://www.themohuashow.com/Connect with the GuestDr. Sonal Jain Jayaswal: https://www.instagram.com/drsonaljainjayaswal/ Follow UsInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/themohuashow/Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/litlounge_pod/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheMohuaShowLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/themohuashow/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/themohuashowFor any other queries EMAILhello@themohuashow.comDisclaimerThe views expressed by our guests are their own.

Send us a textWhat happens when life forces you to take a hard look at what really matters? Sometimes it takes an extreme situation to push you toward an authentic path.After watching my daughter become the target of cruel bullying about her late father, I made the decision many parents dream of but few execute - pulling her from school to create a life on our own terms. Combined with my recent bipolar diagnosis, this wake-up call inspired the purchase of a camper and a journey to the beautiful Ozarks that would change our perspective on what life could be.My coaching philosophy of "getting paid to exist" comes to life through stories from the road. It's not about passive income or trendy hustle culture - it's about aligning your income with activities you would do regardless of financial compensation. Throughout this raw conversation, I share how capturing authentic content for clients (like documenting a beautiful Reiki session between my client and my daughter) represents the antidote to the overly curated social media landscape we're drowning in.The episode culminates with my exciting announcement: joining She Heals the World as their newest business coach, a globally recognized organization with 15 years in the coaching industry. This opportunity validates my unconventional approach and opens doors to help more women build businesses aligned with their authentic selves.If you're tired of curated content and craving authenticity in your life and business, this episode offers both inspiration and practical insights.

If you've ever felt too fiery, too loud, too much—this episode is your permission slip to take up space. Today, Jessica is joined by Emma, who opens up about her path of radical self-reclamation. What happens when the identities you've clung to—like being the “fit, strong, disciplined” athlete—start creating more anxiety than alignment? What if you could let them go and still be worthy?Emma shares how tools like the TBM work have helped her create her own roadmap to her parenting journey—and how along the way, she was able to hold and heal her inner child. Her story is raw, real, and full of moments that will make you pause and reflect on your own path. She sheds light on navigating vulnerability, the push-pull of sharing online, and the sacred power of embracing spiritual awakening and new chapters—not as something to fear, but as the space where your next evolution begins.This is your reminder that you are allowed to change. You're allowed to grow. And you're allowed to soften. The past does not define you—and you deserve to move forward with ease, peace, and radical self-acceptance.**Trigger Warning: Eating Disorder briefly mentioned at 00:16:26**Find the Complete Show Notes Here -> https://tobemagnetic.com/expanded-podcast Resources: Join the Pathway MembershipReprogram your limiting beliefs and step into your most magnetic self!

Happy 300th episode of our podcast!! Have ever wanted to hear about the impact of conscious parenting from a kid‘s point of view? Well today is your lucky day as we hear from our lily. She is the reason I found conscious parenting back in 2014 when I was stressed and snappy everyday and desperate for answers. She has been my greatest teacher since becoming a parent in 2008! She's days away from being 17 and has more wisdom in her soul than I had in my pinkie when I was 17! I always joke that she's always been more mature as a kid than me as an adult. Please let me know your biggest takeaway after hearing from Lily.

Rage is rarely discussed in parenting circles, yet many mothers experience moments of intense anger toward their children that leave them feeling guilty, confused, and deeply ashamed. As a licensed therapist and parent who's navigated these turbulent emotions firsthand, I'm pulling back the curtain on this taboo topic with complete honesty.During this raw conversation, I share my personal experiences with mom rage, including moments I'm not proud of and the violent thoughts that shocked me as a typically gentle person. The paradox is striking: I've never felt more anger toward anyone than my own children, yet simultaneously have never felt more profound love for any human beings. This contradiction lies at the heart of the parenting journey for many of us.The breakthrough moment came with one simple realization: unmet needs fuel our rage. When we're chronically sleep-deprived, nutritionally depleted, lacking adult connection, and missing a sense of accomplishment, our capacity for patience evaporates. Rather than suggesting unrealistic self-care solutions, I offer two practical approaches that transformed my experience: self-compassion and boundary-setting. Learning to drop the "shoulds" from my internal dialogue and creating a personal mantra—"All I can do is all I can do and that is enough"—became oxygen to my overwhelmed mind. Similarly, establishing healthy boundaries around what I could realistically give to my children prevented the resentment that fueled my anger.Whether you've experienced fleeting moments of rage or struggle with ongoing anger toward your children, this episode provides a judgment-free space to understand these emotions and practical tools to manage them.

We have The Conscious Mom on the pod! So grateful to have had this chat with Erin Morrison - she shared all her wisdom on how parents can cultivate deeper connections with their children by leading with intention and authenticity. She gives tips for developing patience during challenging moments, taking accountability when you fall short, and modeling genuine apologies that teach kids the value of responsibility. We also discuss how prioritizing self-care isn't selfish - it's essential for showing up fully present for your family. Conscious parenting means having your kids' best interest at heart while honoring your own needs.

Do you find yourself caught in constant battles with your teen, unsure of how to truly connect? Have you ever wondered how your own emotions and reactions shape your relationship with your child? In this episode of Power Your Parenting: Moms with Teens, Colleen O'Grady speaks with transformational coach Anne Marie Chereso about the power of conscious parenting. They explore how self-awareness is the foundation for authentic connection and why parenting from a place of presence—not fear—can help reduce drama and conflict. Anne Marie shares her personal experiences navigating parenting challenges and offers insight into how our own unresolved emotions can affect the way we interact with our children. Through mindfulness, self-reflection, and a commitment to emotional regulation, moms can transform their relationships by fostering deeper understanding and trust. Author, Meditation Teacher, and Transformational Coach, Annmarie Chereso empowers parents, children and families to discover authentic happiness and true success. With over two decades of expertise, Annmarie has trained educators, students, and parents globally through online courses, coaching, speaking engagements, workshops, and retreats. She's collaborated with renowned leaders including Dr. Shefali Tsabary and The Conscious Leadership Group. This episode highlights three key takeaways for moms. First, true connection with your teen starts with self-awareness—when you understand your own emotional triggers, you can respond rather than react. Second, resisting the urge to control your teen's experience and instead acting as a compassionate witness allows them to navigate challenges while feeling supported. Lastly, making space for daily joy, even in small ways, helps shift the energy in your home and fosters a more positive parent-child dynamic. By embracing conscious parenting, moms can create a calmer, more connected relationship with their teens.

Title: No Such Thing As Good or Bad Kids: Dr. Shefali on Conscious Parenting Description: Today, we're taking a trip into the archives to revisit a 2023 episode with renowned clinical psychologist and listener favorite, Dr. Shefali Tsabary, where we dove into the deeply-layered topic of conscious parenting. Those of us in the middle of life, still parenting kids at home, adjusting to parenting adult children who just launched out into the world. or in any season of the parenting journey, really, will find much to learn as we look back (and forward) at our parenting patterns. Highlights from this convo include: Defining conscious parenting and the three stages of the parenting map Debunking the notion that as parents we are supposed to create happy, perfect superhumans by following traditional parenting rules Dismissing the notion that there are good kids and bad kids—and how to avoid using these labels Revealing the five ego patterns that parents might not even realize inform their quest to raise amazing children The three reasons why children act out or misbehave and how you can learn not to shame them for it The results of over-parenting and how it shows up in your adult children How it's never too late to become a mindful parent Segments: Bless and Release: Avoiding difficult conversations Thought-provoking Quotes: The evolution of the planet depends on the evolution of the parent. – Dr. Shefali Everyone wants a new tomorrow. But what we don't realize is that a new future comes with an absolute willingness to disrupt the past. – Dr. Shefali There is no such thing as a good kid or a bad kid. So, what kind of kids are there? Just kids – just humans who are terribly flawed like we are, and terribly, but amazingly blissful like we are. They're just this unique combo and they defy labels. – Dr. Shefali Punishment, shaming, blaming is never sustainable. I cannot tell you how many times a day I tell parents, ‘Listen, you appear to get control in the moment, but long term, it's going to be unforgiving.' – Dr. Shefali How do we constantly show our presence [to our adult children]? Unequivocal cheerleading. ‘I'm thinking of you. I miss you. I'm remembering you. I adore you.' Let them know they are on your mind but not involved in their day-to-day. – Dr. Shefali When the ego crumbles, proportionately the heart expands, and you then are just this heart-centered being able to connect to the other people in a very attuned, compassionate, genuine way. And your children will feel it. – Dr. Shefali Resources Mentioned in This Episode: The Conscious Parent by Dr. Shefali Tsabary - https://amzn.to/4aNAPd8 The Parenting Map by Dr. Shefali Tsabary - https://amzn.to/3EER148 Dr. Shefali's previous interview on For the Love:Releasing The Fantasy of “The Good Girl” with Dr. Shefali Tsabary - https://jenhatmaker.com/podcasts/series-35/releasing-the-fantasy-of-the-good-girl-with-dr-shefali-tsabary/ Guest's Links: Dr. Shefali's website - https://www.drshefali.com/ Dr. Shefali's Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/doctorshefali Dr. Shefali's Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/doctorshefali Dr. Shefali's YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/c/DrShefali Dr. Shefali's TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@doctorshefali Dr. Shefali's Podcast - https://www.drshefali.com/podcast/ Connect with Jen!
