I'm joined this week by the fantastic Debra Driscoll, who invites us all to be 'magic-curious'. I finally dared to ask Deb what Magic actually is - what she told me made SO MUCH SENSE. We ARE the magic - magic isn't something that happens to us - some ethereal thing that only the lucky can tap into. We can all create magic. It's a choice. This is a different topic from those we normally talk about on the podcast, but trust me, Deb is incredibly grounded, a successful business owner, and a voice of reason for the spiritually curious. We cover Deb's realization that in her business she wasn't playing the game she wanted to win. She began to form a relationship with her business as if it were its own entity. An entity to listen to, with its own wants & needs. If you're open to exploring how magic can transform your business (and your life), this episode is for you.

My guest this week is Debra Driscoll Author, Spiritual Teacher, and the founder of BIG LIFE MAGIC The core of Debra's work is in Heart Repair and the transformation from big life loss to BIG LIFE MAGIC. Debra's book A Series of Surrenders ~ A Memoir of Grief - Is a love story that asks; How does one accept a gift from death when death is the very enemy that took your loved one away? It is her belief that our big life losses are the pathway to our big life magic. This belief was developed and strengthened in her journey from a single mother to a grieving mother when in 2013 her son Sage, aged almost 11, unexpectedly died. During our conversation Debra shares the soul evolution work that grief offers us individually and as a collective as we all asses our lives after the losses and traumas of the past 3 years.

Hello rare diamonds and welcome! Thank you so much for listening. Episode 70 is a whole vibe with my sister as my cohost. Very special episode. We bring awareness to the fact that some of the people we meet have a hidden agenda. Unfortunately people aren't always transparent and honest. Instead of being manipulative people should communicate their true thoughts, needs, and circumstances. If it's sex that you want, well, then say that! If you need a ride home, say that! If you don't want to be in a relationship, say that! Tricking people out of things will only backfire or get you exposed!

In episode 66 I talk about some things you should think about before calling your ex. Are you ready to enter another toxic cycle with them? Ask yourself if you're board or lonely and if you are it would actually be selfish of you to contact them. It is not always easy to accept that the relationship is over for so many different reasons with one being that you're intuitively feeling like they are thinking of you or that maybe you are working through a cycle that isn't exactly complete. It is important to think about how life has been without them; drama free, abuse free, BS free, argument free, manipulation free...If you would like to connect with me, feel free to follow me on Instagram at doc_savage_lyfe.

In this episode I encourage the listeners not to be limited or restrained by their age. There is so much more to people than age but it is commonly the first thing people ask. I've been in relationships with people younger than me, a bit older than me and within my age group and I've come to the realization that it's more about a persons mindset. Your mindset is what will navigate you through life. If you feel limited then limited you shall be. If you feel plentiful then plentiful you shall be. I've met people who were in their 40's but were irresponsible and naive and I've met people in their 20's and 30's who appeared to be older than they were because they've been through so much. What's really important is that people are comfortable with who they are dating, that we be in healthy relationships, consensual relationships and relationships that are legal!!! The Heart Repair candle is still available. Message me on Instagram at doc_savage_lyfe or email me at HeartRepairPodcast@gmail.com. 2022 was emotional, looking forward to 2023.

Gospel 25So the soldiers did this. But standing by the cross of Jesus were his mother, and his mother's sister, Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary Mag'dalene. 26When Jesus saw his mother, and the disciple whom he loved standing near, he said to his mother, "Woman, behold, your son!" 27Then he said to the disciple, "Behold, your mother!" And from that hour the disciple took her to his own home.

In episode 34 I have a guest by the name of Wisdom who you can find 24/7 on Instagram: iamwisdom11. In this episode we talk about the benefits of taking time to heal before jumping into another relationship. It's not fair to the people we bring into the equation and we haven't gotten over our ex's and are still healing from the breakup or divorce. It is important to cleanse ourselves of the energy from the previous relationship. We also talk about how being ok with being alone takes time because the brain has become accustomed to having someone around. Give yourself time to heal. You can contact me via email: HeartRepairPodcast@gamail.com or on Instagram: one_yacht_doc. The Heart Repair candle is now available and smells amazing. DM me on Instagram or contact me via email for simple purchase instructions. Shipping is fast!

It's my 1 year anniversary for Heart Repair today. I will be offering a candle that will be charged with helping to deal with unresolved emotions, healing, love, comfort and will hopefully help to decrease anxiety and depression. In this episode I talk about taking back your power by taking accountability. Taking accountability is just taking responsibility and when you take responsibility you put yourself in charge of your life. When we blame others we loose out on an opportunity for growth and change. Stop blaming your ex and take back your power. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

If you are soaking in a broken heart at this moment, or if your last broken heart was years ago..this episode will perform some amateur exploratory surgery on your tender heart. Fun!

Professor Michael Schneider of Imperial College tells Alan Keys about how stem cell research is leading to treatments for heart disease. Michael describes how the availability of stem cells allows his team to determine the molecules involved in heart cell death and also how to protect those cells from death during a heart attack. Michael foresees a near future where stem cells are combined with other therapies to both repair hearts and enable hearts to self-repair. Alan Keys had his own heart repaired during an operation some years ago and currently chairs a British Heart Foundation patients committee. The British Heart Foundation part-fund the work of Michael's team at Imperial College.
