In this transformative interview, Darius J. Wright joins Emilio Ortiz to explore the hidden mechanics of human consciousness, truth, and ascension. Going beyond simulation narratives, Darius reveals how perceptional truths, societal programming, and spiritual dogma often distort our connection to the essence of love and self-discovery. This conversation dives into the role of ego in spiritual evolution, the importance of releasing judgment, and how the innocence of childhood holds keys to our personal power. As they journey deeper, Darius shares advanced teachings on future human potential, the Halls of Amenti, cellular information storage, and the scientific possibilities of physical immortality. This conversation offers rare clarity on how each individual can reclaim their sovereignty, dissolve distortions in the New Age narrative, and embody the highest version of themselves. This dialogue activates profound soul remembrance, light code awakenings, and reveals the multidimensional truth behind humanity's timeline shifts and 5D ascension. Darius J. Wright is a multidimensional teacher and consciousness explorer, dedicated to unlocking the hidden truths behind human existence, spiritual ascension, and reality itself. After years of out-of-body experiences, Darius has accessed profound knowledge from higher realms, including the Halls of Amenti, soul contracts, and the structures that govern manifestation, light, and shadow. Through his teachings, he guides others to break free from distortion, reclaim their personal sovereignty, and remember their divine nature as creators within this reality matrix. His work dissolves outdated spiritual dogmas while empowering individuals to access higher states of being, unconditional love, and the next phase of humanity's awakening.___________________PODCAST CHAPTERS00:00 - Darius J Wright Intro2:34 - Individual Sovereignty Over Global Events3:58 - Perceptual Truth vs. The One Foundational Truth8:57 - Breaking Addictions to False Beliefs12:12 - Discover Your Authentic Self14:07 - Why Pain Increases When the Soul Avoids Truth18:06 - Acceptance as the Path to Authenticity19:25 - The Misconception About Dissolving the Ego29:55 - Remembering the Soul36:29 - The Light vs Dark41:02 - Can We Fully Remove Our Limitations?47:34 - Humanity's Dormant Gifts50:15 - The Feeling Behind Manifestation56:01 - Darius' Greatest Released Judgment58:47 - Measuring "Enoughness" & Worthiness1:00:46 - What Was the Soul Before the Construct?1:05:10 - The Closer to Truth, The Bigger the Shadow1:10:50 - Becoming the Change 1:14:57 - Collective Responsibility & Personal Integrity1:16:55 - Becoming the Wave of Ascension1:18:46 - The Body's Electromagnetic Field1:20:35 - The Halls of Amenti1:27:18 - The Purpose of Advanced Beings Still on Earth1:29:24 - The Sea Moss Connection & Immortal Genes1:33:36 - The Attack on the Physical Body's Potential1:35:51 - The Body's State vs. Soul's Access to Higher Realms1:38:14 - The Final Trio Begins1:44:00 - Bonus Testimonial___________________Guest: Darius J Wright | OBE Master✦ Website | https://dariusjwright.com/✦ Mission Statement | https://dariusjwright.com/my-mission/✦ About the Method | https://dariusjwright.com/ayda-method/✦ More Testimonials | https://dariusjwright.com/success-sto...✦ YouTube | @dariusjwright Host: Emilio Ortiz✦ IG | / iamemilioortiz ✦ Subscribe to Channel | / emilioortiz ✦ Watch Emilio's latest series on 4biddenknowledge TV l https://bit.ly/AwakenThe6thSense___________________© 2025 Emilio Ortiz.

Ask Me How I Know: Multifamily Investor Stories of Struggle to Success
You've built success, but it still doesn't feel safe. This episode unpacks why high-capacity humans over-earn from fear — and how recalibration shifts you into enoughness, peace, and true provision.What happens when success still feels scarce — even after you've built more than enough?For many high-capacity humans, over-earning isn't about greed — it's about fear. The nervous system learned early that self-reliance equals survival, and so every season of abundance is still shadowed by an old story: collapse is coming.That's why provision without alignment becomes pressure. No number in the bank can settle the ache, because the nervous system doesn't measure dollars — it measures identity congruence. Until who you are feels secure, no income level will feel safe.In this episode of The Recalibration, Julie Holly unpacks why enoughness is an identity issue, not a net-worth issue. You'll discover:Why abundance often feels provisional — the body still living in yesterday's storyThe science of over-earning as a survival strategy, not ambitionThe language of the striving zone and provisional mindset — and why they never resolve with more zerosAndrew Carnegie's story: from poverty to over-earning, to philanthropy still shaped by pressureA five-step framework to begin recalibrating your money story into true enoughnessToday's Micro Recalibration:“Where am I still chasing security through more — when alignment would give me enough right now?”If you've ever pushed for more but never felt safe enough to rest, this episode will give you language for what you're experiencing and show you how recalibration shifts provision from pressure into peace.If this episode gave you language you've been missing, please rate and review the show so more high-capacity humans can find it.

1 in 5 kids—and 1 in 5 adults—are struggling with mental and emotional health. But here's the deeper truth: the nervous system is where these patterns begin, and unless they're cleared, they carry forward into every stage of life.In this episode, we dive into:How kids encode experiences and turn them into beliefs.Why unprocessed emotions don't disappear—they become identity.The “false pillars” kids unconsciously build on: I'm behind, I'm broken, I'm not enough.The Four Pillars of Foundation that create safety and belonging.Why regulation is the inheritance your children need—whether they're 6 or 36.✨ Get the Free Kids Method here → The FREE Kids MethodThis isn't about parenting hacks or quick fixes—it's about nervous system regulation, belief rewiring, and breaking the generational cycle of survival coding.

The Scripture readings are Isaiah 29:17-24; 2 Corinthians 3:4-11; and Mark 7:31-37.The Holy Spirit abides in and is with you. He accompanies you and makes you worthy to be a worker in His kingdom. Anyone who questions that worthiness insults Him directly and isn't worth listening to. God Himself has made you sufficient and enough.

It's about time Jade Miles takes the mic so we can pick her brain and her heart about ‘huddling' for the future of all! We chat about what is our ecological work to do, our soul work to do as we come together in all kinds of communities.We decolonise our minds by moving into our hearts: away from extraction and spectacle, toward opulence of the ordinary- soil under nails, soup shared warm, shared conversations around a fire, singing songs as ritual. We name the practices that bind us: huddle, muddle, cuddle- messy, tender, and profoundly effective.Jade's new book, Huddle, is a field guide for this future: small circles doing big things. Gather often. Trade skills. Move through initiation. Tell truer stories. Let the elders speak. Listen deeply. Make a ritual. Define your enoughness. In a time that worships scale, choose closeness. In a culture that fears the muddle, trust in the huddles!.Because the way we will change the planet is not by shouting across the void but by huddling in, shoulder-to-shoulder, until courage becomes contagious and care becomes the norm.Links You'll LoveIf Women Rose Rooted - Sharon Blackie -- DuckworthPod Partners Rock: Australian Medicinal Herbs Code: Future5Support the ShowCasual Support - Buy Me A CoffeeRegular Support - PatreonBuy the Book - Futuresteading - live like tomorrow matters, Huddle - creating a tomorrow of togethernessWe talked aboutHuddling is about coming together in community.Human interactions can be complex due to trauma and ego.Rituals help fill the gaps in our lives.Understanding our phases of life can guide our growth.Eldership and wisdom sharing.Ancestral connections can deepen our sense of belonging.Enoughness is crucial in a consumer-driven world.We must be mindful of our impact on future generations.Being heart-led creates a different world.Loved this?

When did having twin basins and three toilets become the norm? As an architect who bucks the idea of bigger-is-better Jane Hilliard uses the principle of “Enoughness” as a design principle for the built environment. Its better for both the natural environment and the people around us. It allows us to be rich in ways that matter instead of buying into the idea that grandeur will make us happy.For her 'enough' looks like going out into her backyard supermarket garden picking something and cooking it. Its also having outdoor space & quiet, unstructured time to think. Guided by the principle of “enoughness,” she manages her work load to keep her energy output within her own capacity while meeting her modest need for resources to sustain her family and business.

It's not about gaining new knowledge or new skills or new technology or new tools. It's about stripping things back and getting rid of a lot of stuff."We need to be grateful for how much the earth gives us and not to take too much.Our culture is dominated by growth and seeking opportunity. The desire for more can be part of our status and identity.People are trying to meet their needs with things instead of meaning.A mentality that “I've worked hard and I deserve it” is a strong focus for Jane's clients.Just because "you've worked hard and deserve it" doesn't mean you should aim for the biggest and shiniest."We stay in tents and shacks when we go away, why can't we bring this spirit into our own house?

Send us a textIn this solo episode, I'm exploring my realtionship with enoughness and sharing some of the learnings this exploration has brought me so far. We look at it from multiple angles indluing from the material (“Do I have enough?”); the relational (“Are others enough for me?”), to the internal (“Am I enough?”).I also dive into the learnings and insights I had about enoughness during a a recent MDMA-assisted therapy experience.Whether you're working through self-doubt, navigating relationships, or longing for a deeper sense of wholeness, you'll find nourishment here.Some key takeaways: Why enoughness isn't a measurement, but rather it's a mindset, feeling and a relationship.How scarcity mindset can fuel comparison, anxiety, and overachieving.The surprising fears that hide beneath desires for “more.”How intimate relationships reflect back our own self-worth struggles.The liberating paradox: “I have enough—and I desire more.”Thank you, in advance, for listening!

Coming up on this episode of Flirtations, we're joined by Israa Nasir, a psychotherapist, speaker, mental health advocate, creator of the digital platform Well Guide, and author of the brilliant new book Toxic Productivity, here today to have a conversation with us about what it means to feel enough in a world that constantly tells us otherwise. Inside the episode, we're exploring how hustle culture and the need to always be doing something not only impacts our careers, but also how we love and date. We'll talk about the sometimes invisible pressure to check every box and make things work, and we'll look at how comparison, perfectionism, and rushing intimacy can keep us stuck in dating loops that leave us anxious - and yet wanting more. Israa shares insights on how family and cultural expectations shape our relationships, and how we can honor our roots while still choosing ourselves. We also get into vulnerability vs. oversharing, why external validation isn't the enemy, and how curiosity, not criticism, is the key to dating with more clarity and self-compassion. So if you've ever felt like dating was just another performance, like you're behind in this unspoken race to be partnered, or like your "enoughness" is waiting to be confirmed by someone else, this one is for you!

You're used to pushing hard – in fact, your identity is built on it. What happens when your body forces you to stop? Who are you then? That's what happened to psychologist Jo Rodriguez, a behind-the-scenes TV expert, marathon runner, and mum who loved being called a machine. One day, what seemed like a simple illness forced her to slow down. She continued her relentless routine, and the mystery illness kept reappearing until the pain became unbearable, and Jo's heart nearly doubled in size. After a diagnosis of pericarditis, she lay in hospital wondering if she'd ever feel worthy again. Could she find a new way of being without her super-achiever identity? In this raw, moving conversation, Jo shares what it was like to go through the stages of grief, the self-doubt, the false surrenders, and the small shift that finally started opening a new way of being.

As your host, Gina Ryan, I delve into the theme of enoughness, creating a safe and comfortable environment where we can collectively unwind and reconnect with our inherent worth.The episode begins with a heartfelt invitation to pause, as we often rush through life multitasking and striving for perfection. I emphasize the importance of taking a moment to simply be present, without the need to fulfill any external expectations. This moment serves as a sanctuary, allowing us to escape the chaos of daily demands and ground ourselves in the tranquility that comes from acknowledging our enoughness.As we transition into the guided meditation, I encourage listeners to release the inner critic that can weigh heavily on our minds. By creating a space dedicated to self-compassion, we can recognize that our value is not dictated by our productivity but rather by our existence as sentient beings. Through gentle reminders, I help participants reaffirm that they are enough just as they are, separate from accomplishments or societal validations.#AnxietyCoachesPodcast #GuidedMeditation #LettingGoOfPressure #Enoughness #Mindfulness #StressRelief #MentalHealth #SelfCare #InnerPeace #AnxietyRelief #BeEnough #PeaceAndCalm #SelfCompassion #WellnessJourney #MeditationPractice #CalmYourMind #ReleaseStress #FindYourCalm #DailyMeditation #MindfulLiving #EmotionalWellness #HealingJourney #SelfLove #PresenceNotPerfection #DigitalDetox #UnwindAndRelax #BeyondAnxiety #PodcastForWellness #HealthAndHappiness #InnerStrength #BePresent #GentleReminder #FreedomFromPressure #AnxietySupport #MindOverMatter #BreatheAndBe #RestInEnoughness #WorthinessJourney #HumanBeingNotHumanDoing #GinaRyan #ACPSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

A conversation with Béla Hatvany, pioneering entrepreneur in the automation of libraries and the information industry, born in 1938, turned into angel investor and philanthropist, on his journey, what's enough, the role of AI and EI (empathetic intelligence), and the potential of precision fermentation.Growing up during WWII with bombs literally blowing through his window, Bela's early anger about the state of the world transformed into action after a pivotal moment of self-reflection. This led him to create businesses with what he calls "six bottom lines" - serving employees, investors, suppliers, clients, communities, and Earth in balance. His approach included substantial employee ownership and prioritizing collective happiness over personal gain. Throughout, he emphasizes that "collaboration creates superabundance while competition creates artificial scarcity."More about this episode on https://investinginregenerativeagriculture.com/bela-hatvany.==========================In Investing in Regenerative Agriculture and Food podcast show we talk to the pioneers in the regenerative food and agriculture space to learn more on how to put our money to work to regenerate soil, people, local communities and ecosystems while making an appropriate and fair return.

In this message, Jordan addresses common misconceptions surrounding singleness, both within and outside of religious contexts. He challenges the idea that being single equates to being behind or a punishment, arguing instead that singleness offers a unique opportunity for holiness and a focused relationship with God. Jordan also debunks the expectation that single individuals should disproportionately dedicate their time to work or ministry, emphasizing their equal need for community and relational investment.
Ever said, “No worries, it's fine,” when it absolutely wasn't fine? Or maybe you've pushed down your needs and shape-shifted into whoever you thought you needed to be in a particular situation. That's not kindness. That's fawning—people-pleasing's sneakier, brain-based cousin. In this episode, neuroscientist and author of Rewire, Nicole Vignola, joins me for a juicy, no-fluff convo about why we fawn, what's going on in the brain when we do it, and how to unhook from this exhausting survival pattern. Nicole shares real talk from her own relationships, where she caught herself over-functioning, then said the magic word: “Enough.” Expect science, self-awareness, and some serious permission to want more. Nicole creates a practical de-fawning practice to help you shift out of appeasement and into enoughness. We kick things off with a little warm-up game I almost edited out… but didn't. Come play enoughness ping pong with us and feel instantly more human. Tune in now. Because “fine” is officially cancelled. Links: Nicole Vignola's website and book. Nicole on Instagram.

As a 3/5 Emotional Manifestor with a defined Root Center, an Undefined G Center, and a completely Open Heart, my journey through life is anything but linear. In this episode, I explore how my deep emotional waves, trial-and-reflect process, and powerful drive to initiate all intertwine with my Incarnation Cross of Eden—the quest to find and create my own version of paradise. But with a Root Center that pulses with pressure and a G Center that constantly shifts direction, how do I know when it's the right time to act? How do I differentiate between true clarity and the rush to prove myself or "figure it all out"? I dive into the tension between your Root's push for action and my Emotional Authority's need for patience, uncovering how to recognize when I'm moving from alignment versus external pressure. I explore how my Undefined G Center allows me to evolve fluidly, why my Open Heart means I have nothing to prove, and how embracing my natural trial-and-reflect process leads me to the most aligned path—without forcing the answers. If you've ever felt the tension between wanting to move fast and needing to wait for clarity, this episode will help you navigate that dynamic with more trust, ease, and self-honoring awareness. Tune in as I dive deep into what it truly means to trust your timing, initiate from alignment, and create your own version of enoughness—on your terms, at your pace, loving all your parts along the way.

What if the thing you're most afraid to let go of is the very thing keeping you stuck?In this powerful episode, transformational coach Michelle Gauthier shares her personal story of walking away from a high-achieving, burnout-fueled life to rebuild from the inside out. We talk about how to tune into your body's whispers before they become screams, release perfectionism, reclaim joy, and live a life that feels as good as it looks.
Reinvention often stirs up a storm—self-doubt, not-enoughness, the old habits of perfectionism and overworking. We think we have to earn our way out of stuckness. But what if the answer wasn't in doing more—but in needing less? What if your enoughness was right there in plain sight, but you've been looking for it in the wrong places? This week, I'm joined by the glorious Donna Ashworth: poet, best-selling author, and queen of reinvention. She's been a music industry exec, a magazine journalist, a business owner (of a children's play centre) —and through each chapter, she's rewritten what it means to feel enough. By using her poet's eye, Donna has mastered the art of being easily pleased—finding beauty in the ordinary, and joy in the small. And in doing so, she's removed the pressure to get reinvention “right.” If you've ever felt stuck, lost, or like it's too late to start over… this conversation will feel like a deep exhale.

What does it take to lead luxury fashion for two decades—then make an unexpected pivot? My guest this week, celebrated fashion designer Clare Waight Keller, knows first hand. After shaping the vision at Chloé and Givenchy—where she famously created the Duchess of Sussex's wedding dress—Clare stepped away from the Paris catwalk to become Uniqlo's Global Creative Director.In this episode, Clare reveals why this was more than a career shift —it was a statement of intent. With luxury fashion prices soaring 52% since 2020, Clare's new mission is to show that great everyday design can be accessible to everyone, and that in the right hands “fast fashion” can be reimagined as slow fashion.Clare also takes us under the hood of her creative and decision making process—sharing why trusting her instincts is her superpower, why discomfort fuels her best work, and how seeing time as her most precious resource has shaped every decision she's made. We get to the truth behind why there are so few female fashion directors, what it was like to work with the Duchess of Sussex, and why Uniqlo's home-base of Tokyo is her favourite fashion capital yet.Clare Waight Keller is a revered force in fashion, and her journey—rooted in instinct, embracing change and long-term strategic thinking—offers inspiration to anyone forging their own path to just right.If you've ever wanted a peek behind the curtain of design creativity, are curious about how fashion is changing, or to hear from a woman at the top of her game in an industry dominated by men, this one's for you.

What actually holds you together when life blindsides you? Maybe it's a breakup. A diagnosis. Or the crushing weight of everything right now. If you're wired for hustle, your first instinct might be to work through it—to push harder, achieve more, be exceptional. What if the answer wasn't in doing more, but in seeing oneself as LESS? Wait, what? Julia Baird—broadcaster, journalist, and bestselling author—gets it. She loves being hyper-productive. But when her world cracked open, she didn't seek solace in success. Instead, she discovered the power of her shrinking self and the practice of deliberately seeking awe. In this episode, we dive into the joys (and downsides) of hyper-productivity. We examine “the shrinking self”— and why it might be your secret weapon during tough times. We talk about the sustaining power of deep friendships, ocean swimming and dancing.

On the outside, Dr Mel Hicks (47) had it all. She's been a global philanthropist for two decades. She's a published author, keynote speaker, and has travelled to 44 countries. But another failed marriage, and an emergency hysterectomy threw Mel into shame and self-doubt. She was alone again, and she'd never be a mother – and she blamed herself. As a high-achiever and a self-proclaimed “runner” from her problems, Mel dove into her charity work, and drank and partied so she wouldn't have to face her feelings of not-enoughness. She finally had to confront the big emotions she'd been running from. Can she find a new way of relating to herself if she's not a mom, and still feel enough? Let's find out… 0:00 Intro 2:22.
