Psychic ability is only part of what determines how effectively a spiritual practitioner can work with energy. Capacity, discernment, belief, energetic boundaries, and the ability to hold and direct energy all influence what a practitioner can actually do with their gifts.In this live Psychic Gifts & Energetic Capacity Assessment, Kelle Sparta works with licensed acupuncturist Lisa Nicholson to explore how Lisa's intuitive and energetic abilities function alongside her science-grounded professional practice. Kelle evaluates four categories of psychic ability: Sensor, Messenger, Traveler, and Energy Manipulator, examining both Lisa's current use of each gift and what may be limiting her development. The conversation also explores energetic capacity as something that can expand over time. Kelle explains how energetic “leaks,” belief, intention, and confidence affect the amount of energy a practitioner can hold and direct—and why someone's capacity score can actually decrease after significant growth because their potential has expanded. For practitioners who balance analytical thinking with intuitive perception, Lisa's experience offers an especially useful example of integrating spiritual abilities without abandoning professional grounding. What You'll LearnThe four categories of psychic ability: Sensor, Messenger, Traveler, and Energy ManipulatorHow psychic gifts differ from energetic capacityWhy energetic capacity can continue expanding as you developHow energetic leaks affect your ability to hold and direct energyWhy belief and other people's judgment can limit energetic workHow spirit guides and situational spiritual support may be experiencedHow analytical and intuitive ways of knowing can coexistWhy developing gifts responsibly requires practice, discernment, and greater capacity References MentionedPsychic Gifts & Energetic Capacity Assessment; Sensor; Messenger; Traveler; Energy Manipulator; empathic sensing; mediumship; spirit guides; remote viewing; dream walking; Akashic Records; aura reading; chakras; energetic shields; manifestation; acupuncture; Chinese medicine; energy work; energetic capacity; intention; belief.

280. Fireside Chat with Amber - Your Energetic Operating System In this Fireside Chat, I'm diving into your energetic operating system — the foundation beneath all strategy and content. Energy doesn't lie, and my business works because I've kept my signal uncompromised. I'm Team Human all the way, and I think people can feel that difference in the field. I unpack the shift from transactional thinking into the field of synchronicities, where generosity, reciprocity, and full self-expression replace pressure and manipulation. We explore the paradox of intention with detachment, why being okay with yourself before the outcomes arrive is what actually attracts clients, and how lighthouse marketing — where your people lead themselves to you — beats any formula.

Do crowded stores, family conversations, busy workplaces, or emotionally charged people leave you feeling exhausted, anxious, or scattered? Who or what have you unknowingly given permission to influence your energy?In this episode of The Constance Messmer Podcast, we explore energetic agency— learning how to protect your energy, understand your energetic triggers, and make choices that help you remain grounded and centered throughout the day.Every conversation, environment, decision, and psychic exchange affects your energy field. Spirit kept bringing me back to one very clear message: you need a plan. An energetic healthcare plan helps you recognize what strengthens you, what depletes you, and what simply is not yours to carry.I'll share parts of my own energetic healthcare plan, including why I shop early, how I prepare for public spaces, how I work with my auric field and chakras, and why we all occasionally need an energetic wingperson—or perhaps a tiny spiritual Secret Service.

If you've ever felt like the more stressed you get... the more you mentally beat yourself up... it starts to reflect on your physical body with sickness, skin issues, etc... YOU'RE SPOT ON. When we hold onto a limiting thought ("I'm not good enough," "I'm not as hot as her," "finances will never be easy for me"), it creates an emotion that becomes a belief. And that energy cannot be created or destroyed, it just changes form. That emotion won't just go away when we try to shove it down or solve it with an outside thing. How many times have you tried to solve a limiting belief with a haircut, new outfit, new car, moving to a different city... only for those same issues to still be there 3 weeks later. Instead, that limiting emotion roots itself and manifests into the physical body. That's what then creates physical ailments. For instance, if you spend years worrying about how others perceive you (like how you showed up with friends at a party or how you communicated something at work in front of your team), that eventually manifests into FOREHEAD WRINKLES. The emotional root cause of forehead wrinkles is worry about how others perceive you. Want to do energetic botox in person with us?!

Speaking on stage can be more than sharing information. For experienced spiritual practitioners, coaches, and facilitators, it can become a transformational container.In this Sacred Business Calibration, Kelle Sparta works with Carole Hodges, the Life Change Navigator, as Carole shifts her business away from traditional coaching and toward paid speaking, writing, and a smaller number of private clients.What begins as a business-model conversation quickly moves into something deeper: the difference between being the bridge for other people and becoming the person who simply holds the door open.Kelle explores how transformational speakers can create experiences that invite people across an internal threshold without forcing them to change. She explains how discontent can become fuel for transformation, why an audience must be allowed to choose its own depth of experience, and how a speaker's intention interacts with the attention in the room.The conversation also explores the energetic dimension of speaking. Kelle describes how speeches can function like spells—not through theatrical mysticism, but through focused intention, language, attention, and the ability to hold a coherent transformational container.For spiritual coaches, facilitators, speakers, and practitioners who want to create deeper impact from the stage, this episode offers a practical framework for moving beyond presenting information and into embodied transformational leadership.What You'll LearnHow to transition from traditional coaching into paid speakingWhy being the “bridge” can become exhaustingWhat it means to hold the doorway instead of carrying people acrossHow to recognize when someone is ready for transformationWhy crystallized discontent can become fuel for meaningful changeHow to direct emotional energy toward transformation instead of reactionWhy intention is central to energetic facilitationHow audience attention amplifies the intention you holdWhy transformational speaking requires embodiment, not just preparationHow to let intuition guide what happens on stageWhy a transformational container must allow both shallow and deep participationHow group dynamics influence the depth of an experienceWhy transformational speaking can command a higher fee than informational speakingReferences MentionedSacred Business CalibrationTransformational SpeakingPublic SpeakingPaid SpeakingLife Change NavigationMenopause MillionaireToastmastersMusical TheaterInitiationThreshold ExperiencesCrystallized DiscontentTony RobbinsEnergetic FacilitationIntentionTransformational ContainersGroup CoachingEmbodimentLumos GateSpiritual CoachingIntuitive SpeakingResources MentionedKelle Spartahttps://kellesparta.comCarole Hodges — Life Change Navigatorhttps://lifechangenavigator.comFive Questions for Deeper Purposehttps://lifechangenavigator.com/5questions

After the intensity of August and eclipse season, September feels noticeably different. There is more room to breathe, more space to integrate, and perhaps an opportunity to understand some of what has shifted before we rush toward whatever comes next.After the intensity of August and eclipse season, September feels noticeably different.

This episode is about a pattern I've now lived through twice: losing my voice, not from screaming at a concert, but from swallowing something true and watching my body take over where my mouth wouldn't. I walk through both stories, a recent one and an older one from my acting days in college, then break down what's happening physically in the larynx when this hits, what German New Medicine says is underneath it, and why I think this shows up so often in women specifically raised to choose agreeable over honest. I also give you the exact protocol that got my voice back in two days instead of two weeks, from what went in my nebulizer to what I prayed about. If you've ever lost your voice and had a doctor blame a virus with no explanation for the timing, this one's for you. In this episode: What laryngitis actually is in the body, and the difference between acute and chronic What German New Medicine says is really happening in the larynx during a voice loss Why the throat holds this same weight across so many traditions, not just this one The link between recurring illness and viruses that never leave, they just go dormant Why women in particular carry this pattern, and how using your voice functions as a health practice My full recovery protocol Sponsored By: → PUORI | Go to https://puori.com/HEALINGTHESOURCE and use the code HEALINGTHESOURCE at checkout to get 32% off your first Puori Grass-fed Whey Protein subscription order and get a free shaker worth $25.

In this episode, I sit down with Kay Gardner, one of the original “mothers” of Internal Family Systems (IFS), to discuss her new book, Calling Ourselves Back Home: The Spiritual and Energetic Lens of IFS. Kay shares her journey with IFS and what it has been like to finally take the “lid” off the spiritual and intuitive aspects of her work. We explore legacy and cultural burdens, the historical oppression of the divine feminine, and how these burdens can impact our ability to trust and express our intuition. We also talk about the power of imagination, reconnecting with our innate intuitive nature, and what it means to remember the spirituality that has always been within us. Kay and I dive into guides—what they are, how we might notice them, and how they can support our journey. And in a fun and unexpected moment, we discover that Kay and I share a guide!   In This Episode: Kay's origin story with IFS Legacy and cultural burdens The divine feminine, intuition, and imagination Reclaiming our intuitive and spiritual nature The cultural fear of speaking our intuitive knowing aloud Connecting with guides and noticing their presence Kay's new book, Calling Ourselves Back Home   Connect with Kay: Website Book: Calling Ourselves Back Home: The Spiritual and Energetic Lens of IFS   ________________________________ ✨ NEW THIS FALL: IFS + INTUITION + SPIRITUALITY CONSULTATION GROUP ✨ I'm offering a monthly consultation group for IFS providers who are curious about exploring the spiritual and intuitive dimensions of IFS work—both within our own inner work and with our clients.

In this episode of the Charleston Women Podcast, host Kim Russo sits down with Dr. Kate Glebocki, CEO, founder, and chiropractor at IVY Energetic Studio, to explore a groundbreaking approach to spinal health and nervous system regulation. Dr. Kate shares how life's accumulated stress creates "short circuits" in our nervous system, dimming our inner light like a switch on a wall. Rather than relying on traditional spinal cracking or forceful adjustments, IVY Energetic Studio utilizes Network Spinal—a gentle, precise touch technique that signals safety to the brain, releasing stored trauma and restoring vital energy. Host Kim Russo shares her personal experience as a patient, reflecting on how her view of chiropractic care transformed after seeing how deeply connected the spine is to overall wellness, nervous system regulation, and chronic conditions like gut health. Throughout the conversation, Dr. Kate highlights the profound ripple effects of this work—from clients recovering their physical energy to even finding the clarity to start their own businesses. They also discuss upcoming local events, including full-day immersions and quantum field rewiring workshops designed to help Charleston residents upgrade their mind-body connection without having to travel.

Joshua McDonald: Product Owners Earn Team Loyalty By Showing Up, Learning, And Deciding The Great Product Owner: Vulnerable Enough To Learn The Technical Details Read the full Show Notes and search through the world's largest audio library on Agile and Scrum directly on the Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast website: http://bit.ly/SMTP_ShowNotes.   "I've seen developers be fiercely loyal to their product owner who makes that type of effort." - Joshua McDonald   Joshua describes the great Product Owner as someone who connects with the team even without a technical background. They do not pretend to know everything. Instead, they get into refinement with curiosity, write stories with the developers, and say, "I think this is what needs to be done, but correct me if I'm wrong." That vulnerability creates a strong partnership. Developers see the effort and often respond with loyalty, to the point where they may refuse to continue important discussions without the Product Owner in the room. The lesson is useful for Scrum Masters coaching Product Owners: deep technical expertise is not the entry ticket. Presence, curiosity, and the willingness to learn with the team are what create trust.   Self-reflection Question: How does your Product Owner show the team they are willing to learn the product with them? The Bad Product Owner: The Dependent Note Taker Read the full Show Notes and search through the world's largest audio library on Agile and Scrum directly on the Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast website: http://bit.ly/SMTP_ShowNotes.   "Sometimes you ask the product owner, you're the bus driver, where do you want us to go? And they say, let me go talk with the product manager." - Joshua McDonald   The Product Owner anti-pattern Joshua highlights is the dependent PO: the person who shows up as a note taker rather than a decision maker. This often happens when a Product Manager sits behind the PO and every decision has to be checked elsewhere. The day-to-day symptoms are easy to spot: camera off, muted, disconnected, asking people to repeat questions, missing meetings they scheduled themselves, and leaving the team without timely answers. Joshua's coaching response starts with one-on-ones, support, and curiosity. He asks how they are doing, what support they need, and what signals would help the team see they are engaged. When the product feels too technical, he sits beside them, learns with them, and helps them build confidence instead of leaving them exposed.   Self-reflection Question: Where is your Product Owner dependent on someone else for decisions, and how is that affecting the team?   [The Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast Recommends]

Joshua McDonald: Scrum Master Success Means People Feel Heard, Respected, And Safe To Speak Up Read the full Show Notes and search through the world's largest audio library on Agile and Scrum directly on the Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast website: http://bit.ly/SMTP_ShowNotes.   "I hope you can feel heard and respected at the end of the day." - Joshua McDonald   Joshua defines Scrum Master success through the team's comfort with self-organization, respectful pushback, and asking for help when they do not know what they do not know. For him, a successful team is not drama-free because nothing hard happens. It is low-drama because people can raise problems without fear, communicate openly, and keep moving forward even on bumpy roads. Joshua keeps himself honest by reviewing retrospective notes, one-on-one notes, and the commitments he made to follow up. He keeps a running to-do list from Slack messages, meetings, and team conversations so feedback does not disappear after someone shares it. Periodically, he brings past retrospectives back to the team and asks what they accomplished, what changed, and whether anything fell through. That ledger matters because Scrum Masters work through people. If people feel heard and respected, they are more likely to keep working with you, regardless of your title.   Self-reflection Question: What system do you use to make sure team feedback turns into visible follow-up? Featured Retrospective Format for the Week: Personalized AI-Themed Retrospectives Joshua's favorite retrospective format is never using the same format twice. He noticed teams getting bored and agitated when the same sailboat or standard board appeared every sprint. His answer was to personalize retrospectives around team members' interests: a BMW theme for a developer who liked cars, a beach theme after someone's vacation, or a TV-show theme tied to a person's hobby. He uses tools like Mural, Zoom whiteboards, Microsoft Teams, and AI-generated visual themes to make each retro feel like it was designed for someone in the team. The point is not decoration. The point is listening. When people recognize their interests in the retro, they feel seen as people before they reflect on the work.   [The Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast Recommends]

Joshua McDonald: Using Cycle Time As A Storyteller, Not A Scorecard In Agile Retrospectives Read the full Show Notes and search through the world's largest audio library on Agile and Scrum directly on the Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast website: http://bit.ly/SMTP_ShowNotes.   "Metrics is not about telling people do better. It's about telling that story." - Joshua McDonald   Joshua brings cycle time as his biggest current coaching challenge. The problem is familiar: when a Scrum Master points to a story with high cycle time, developers can feel blamed, even when the intent is learning. Joshua reframes the metric as a storyteller. Instead of asking why someone took too long, he asks what journey the story went through, where it changed hands, where it waited, and what the team now knows that it did not know at the start. He also describes practical tactics: warn people in advance before discussing specific stories, keep the language gentle, avoid forcing people to explain themselves publicly, and sometimes skip the metric conversation entirely when the team needs encouragement more than analysis. Metrics matter because they move coaching away from gut feeling and toward observable patterns. Used well, cycle time becomes a barometer for stress, bottlenecks, missing product owner review, and places where the team needs support.   Self-reflection Question: How do you introduce metrics so the team becomes curious about the system instead of defensive about individual performance?   [The Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast Recommends]

Joshua McDonald: The Distributed Agile Team That Hid Problems Behind Follow-Up Stories Read the full Show Notes and search through the world's largest audio library on Agile and Scrum directly on the Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast website: http://bit.ly/SMTP_ShowNotes.   "They started to separate and call each other out, which is definitely not Agile." - Joshua McDonald   Joshua shares the story of a 17-person distributed team spread across time zones, cultures, and communication styles. Some team members were direct and ready to challenge problems in public. Others preferred quieter, one-on-one conversations. Over time, those differences created a blame environment where people stopped asking for help and started hiding problems. Long-running work was closed and replaced with follow-up stories, then part two, then part three, until the real issue disappeared under Jira housekeeping. The result was not better flow, but delayed learning, missed upskilling opportunities, and a stressful team environment where quieter people stopped speaking in standups and retrospectives. Joshua explains what he would do differently now: split the team by communication patterns, listen to what each group needs, act as a mediator, and only bring the whole group together once people feel heard.   In this segment, we talk about different communication styles.   Self-reflection Question: What signals tell you that people are hiding problems because the team environment does not feel safe enough? Featured Book of the Week: Never Eat Alone by Keith Ferrazzi Joshua recommends Never Eat Alone by Keith Ferrazzi because it reframed networking as a relationship practice, not a transaction. The book helped him see that staying connected with people creates learning, support, and a safety net over time. He also mentions the Bible as a daily source for reflecting on respect, peace, and conflict resolution, especially because Scrum Masters often need more than process knowledge to help teams work well together. For Joshua, both recommendations point to the same deeper idea: our work improves when we treat relationships as something to maintain before we urgently need them.   [The Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast Recommends]

What if the fastest way to change what you're creating isn't to obsess over the goal, but to change the decisions you're making right now? We spend so much time thinking about the revenue number, the clients, the visibility, the recognition, or the external result we want to call in. But in this Golden Nugget, Cait invites you to look underneath the goal and ask a more powerful question: Are the decisions you're making today congruent with the woman you say you're becoming? In this episode, you'll hear: Why your goals and external metrics aren't actually the starting point The difference between claiming what you want and embodying it now How your everyday decisions reveal what you truly believe is possible Why thought leadership is rooted in becoming the living expression of what you teach Where indecision may be showing up in the clients, opportunities, or growth you're attracting What changes when you stop waiting for perfect conditions and decide to go first Why bold decisions impact not only your business, but your clients, community, children, and lineage How self-trust can become the internal rubric you use to make your next move If this episode resonates with you, don't forget to share it to your stories and tag @themillionairemother, or leave a 5-star rating and review on Apple Podcasts-it helps more mamas find this show.

Being sensitive doesn't mean you're meant to absorb everything you feel.In this episode of Open Channel, Kate breaks down energetic hygiene as a practical, everyday relationship with yourself. Not something you only reach for when you feel overwhelmed or spiritually “under attack.”We talk about recognizing your energetic baseline, separating sensitivity from responsibility, checking your physical and nervous-system needs before assuming something isn't yours, and creating small resets that fit into real life.Kate also shares simple practices for returning to your own energy and closes the episode with a guided energetic reset.Sensitivity is awareness. It is not absorption.

What does “apocalypse” actually mean spiritually—and does it represent destruction, revelation, transformation, or the ending of an old system? Oksana and Efisia will discuss what they are intuitively sensing, how individuals may experience these energetic changes, and what powerful groups and global elites could be planning for the future of our world.Topics include:• Current planetary and collective energies• Why so many people feel that Earth is “shaking”• Major changes beginning now• The significance of the period leading into 2035• What “apocalypse” may actually mean• Spiritual revelation versus physical destruction• Possible elite plans for the future• Global control and societal restructuring• Timeline shifts and competing futures• Energetic and spiritual preparation• Past-life and ancestral patterns• Consciousness, intuition and personal discernment• What individuals can do to remain groundedAbout Efisia LupinoEfisia Lupino is an energy healer, esoteric past-life regression practitioner, hypnotherapist, tarot reader, and creator of the Total Soul Map Method—a deep spiritual decoding system combining numerology, Major Arcana Tarot, Vedic astrology, karmic patterns, ancestral roots, and intuitive energy reading.Her work helps people explore their soul code, spiritual mission, natural talents, relationships, karmic lessons, and direction in life.

Joshua McDonald: When Your Agile Enthusiasm Creates Resistance, Start With Trust Read the full Show Notes and search through the world's largest audio library on Agile and Scrum directly on the Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast website: http://bit.ly/SMTP_ShowNotes.   "Don't assume they're as enthusiastic about Agile and Scrum as you are." - Joshua McDonald   Joshua McDonald joins us from the USA with a failure story many Scrum Masters will recognize: stepping into a team and assuming the role, the expectations, and the Agile conversation were already understood. The team had worked with a hands-off Scrum Master before, so Joshua's attempts to facilitate events, talk about metrics, and bring more structure were received as interference. The pushback grew so strong he sensed people were talking to his manager about removing him. The turning point came when Joshua stopped leading with Scrum language and started rebuilding social equity through one-on-ones. He asked what he could have done differently, acted on the feedback, and reminded himself and the team to assume positive intent. His lesson is direct: when we join a new team, trust is the work before the work. Go slow, understand how people operate, and bring suggestions through relationships before bringing them to the whole room.   Self-reflection Question: When you join a new team, what do you do first to understand their relationship with Scrum before you suggest changes?   [The Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast Recommends]

In this episode, I share what I mean by “energetic containers” in coaching and relationships, starting with a story from my indoor soccer doubleheader where I asked a strong teammate to coach me, stayed receptive to her feedback, and scored the winning goal. That moment helped me clarify how powerful containers combine discernment with coachability—without giving up sovereignty—and why I'm wary of online dynamics like hierarchy, pedestals, and coach worship. I talk about filtering content and mentorship by what's useful and relevant for your season, the value of experimenting, and how clear structure (like riverbanks) can create safety while still allowing flow. I also explain why witnessing and two-way support matter to me, and why I aim for interdependence—not dependence, codependence, or isolated independence—in coaching, business, parenting, and life.

The Orgasm Code: How Pleasure Rewires Your Nervous System for Longevity & Healing | Regena Thomashauer (Mama Gena) Most people think pleasure is a distraction from performance. This episode proves the opposite: your orgasm is a biohacking tool wired directly into your nervous system, your hormones, and your longevity. Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Host Dave Asprey sits down with Regena Thomashauer, known worldwide as Mama Gena, founder and CEO of the School of Womanly Arts and a New York Times bestselling author. For over three decades she has taught hundreds of thousands of women how to reclaim pleasure as a source of power, and her work has redefined what modern feminism and embodiment look like in practice. Dave and Regena break down the actual biology behind orgasm: the oxytocin, prolactin, and endorphin cascade that shifts the body out of fight or flight and into repair, the role of sleep optimization in processing trauma, and how chronic disconnection from pleasure keeps people stuck in survival mode instead of human performance mode. They dig into semen retention research and its link to longevity and anti-aging, why shame around the body blocks neuroplasticity and emotional healing, and how learning to regulate arousal, rage, and surrender is its own form of nervous system hacking. This is a masterclass in reclaiming a part of your biology most people were never taught to understand, let alone optimize. This is essential listening for anyone serious about biohacking, human performance, brain optimization, functional medicine, longevity, and building a body and mind that can hold more pleasure, more power, and more presence. You'll Learn: How orgasm triggers an oxytocin, prolactin, and endorphin cascade that lowers cortisol and drives real nervous system repair Why the Daoist approach to semen retention is tied to longevity and anti-aging in men How chronic shame and disconnection from the body block neuroplasticity and keep trauma stuck The link between sleep optimization, hormone regulation, and processing deep emotional wounds How to move rage and grief through the body instead of suppressing them Why relaxation, not effort, is the real key to expanding pleasure and human performance How devotional presence between partners creates measurable shifts in nervous system state Thank you to our sponsors! - ECHO Water | Go to http://echowater.com/daveand use code DAVE10 for 10% off your ECHO Flask. - Suppgrade Labs | Get real restorative sleep with Quiet Mode.

Every one of us carries innate spiritual gifts - intuition, healing abilities, multidimensional awareness, the capacity to sense what lies beyond the veil. But too often, without realizing it, we get in our own way and engage in habits or patterns that block the full expression of these gifts.  In this episode of INNER WORK, we explore five common (and often unconscious) habits that delay spiritual awakening and keep you from fully activating and living from your gifts... plus how to recognize each one with compassion, not judgment. This is a deep, honest look at the inner and outer obstacles that we often run into as humans on the spiritual path. There's no toxic shame or self-blaming here, just an open invitation to expand your awareness of these old patterns, release what doesn't serve, and reclaim your full, authentic power.  In this episode, we cover: Impatience & self-doubt — how fear-based doubt about your gifts (and your healing journey) can quietly sabotage your progress, and why meeting self-doubt with clarity — rather than believing it — is essential Slipping into unconsciousness or ego mind — the old coping mechanisms (overworking, people-pleasing, numbing out) that pull you out of presence, and how ego convinces you that you or your gifts "aren't enough" Spiritual bypassing — using spiritual tools, places, or practices to escape reality rather than integrating it, and why true growth requires grounding your spirituality in everyday human life Outgrowing or mismatching your support systems — how to discern when therapists, healers, or other guides are (or aren't) equipped to support you through a genuine spiritual awakening Energetic discernment — why being selective about who and what you allow into your inner circle and energy field directly impacts your ability to stay aligned and let your gifts flow Whether you're just beginning to awaken to your gifts or you're deepening your existing spiritual connection, this episode offers grounded, compassionate guidance for recognizing what's been holding you back... and reclaiming your full spiritual expression.
