I've been thinking a lot about my relationship with God. I believe in God. I believe in something greater. But I've realized that believing in God and actually having a relationship with God are two different things for me. In this episode, I get honest about growing up without religion, my complicated history with Christianity, the moments in my life that have felt undeniably spiritual, and why I think I've sometimes avoided a deeper relationship with God. I talk about light and dark, pleasure and addiction, surrender, serendipity, and the idea that our stories may be the place where we see something greater working through us. I also talk about my house burning down, starting over in Costa Rica, the unexpected things that have happened since, and how those experiences have changed the way I see my life and my relationship with God. I share why I've started looking at my story differently and why I think making sense of the painful parts of our lives can help us move from a dark place toward the light. I talk about: ● Why I believe in God but still struggle with my relationship with God. ● Growing up without religion and my complicated relationship with Christianity. ● Why I sometimes felt like I was performing rather than genuinely worshipping. ● The moments in my life that have felt like undeniable “God moments.” ● Why I see light and dark as two different paths we can move toward. ● How pleasure, addiction, and unhealthy choices can pull us toward darkness. ● Why I think serendipity can be a form of light. ● How I've started seeing the events in my life as part of a larger story. ● What my house burning down taught me about surrender and starting over. ● Why I believe our story may be the most valuable thing we ever own. ● How looking back at trauma and painful experiences can help us understand our story. ● Why I'm beginning to wonder if this next chapter of my life is about developing a better relationship with God.

Most of us can name the pattern. The same dynamic with different partners. The same feeling with a mother, a boss, a spouse. What we can't see is why it keeps happening.In front of 110 participants in Costa Rica, Dr. Zach Bush sat down with Raj for a live Love Retrieval. Underneath four decades of stories was a single architecture. The moment he could see it, it dissolved.The body knew firstBefore the first question, a sharp pain arrived in Zach's right shoulder. Stabbing around the clavicle, radiating through his neck. He'd never had it before and hasn't had it since.Then the question came, and he fell into the space. His body knew where they were going before he did.The pain was the doorway.Following the threadRaj moved him back by decades. The first story came from his twenties with startling physical detail: the Colorado air, the wind through his hair, the drive to his girlfriend's house. He wasn't recalling it. He was inside it.He hadn't been able to tell that story in five years. It was compressed too tightly to reach, and it had been disrupting his biology.Then Raj took him to four years old. Two stories surfaced together. Zach realized he wasn't looking at separate memories, but at a complex geometry holding a superstructure of dis-ease in his body.One pattern under everythingThe same felt experience with his mother, through two marriages, into every employee interaction:Nobody sees any value in the love I have to offer.Four very different experiences. One architecture.The pearlWhat made him weep was how small it was.A tiny pearl emitting blue light, exquisite, and the only thing he had. He describes holding it out and saying: This is all I have, and you keep rejecting it.He had offered it to his son, partners, company, grandmother. Every time, the hand went up.The childhood conclusion was simple: What I have is precious to me and worthless to everyone else.Then Raj asked what big Zach would say to four-year-old Zach.The answer was immediate. He knelt beside the boy, put a hand on his back, and said:This is for you.Every story he carried resolved in that sentence.Why the rejection was intelligentThe people who wouldn't take his pearl were the teachers, showing him to keep it. Everyone already holds their own. Everyone has direct access to the source. Nobody needs yours.That's why he's careful with the word trauma. It wasn't a trauma. It was an experience his soul was having, and each one was trying to show him:Don't give it away.What became possibleThe next morning he called his partner and told her he wasn't going to give her his love anymore.Her body relaxed. The whole relationship changed.It wasn't a behavior he practiced or was coached into. It became available when the structure was visible.You can't change a story you're inside of. You can only change one you can see.Also in this conversation• Why fewer than ten compressed emotional memories can shape the dis-ease of an entire life • The crystalline field and the 110 witnesses • Forgiveness that doesn't excuse anyone or release them from responsibility • Why nature stores no human story, and what that means for what we're carrying • The bigger the rejection, the more precious the pearlEXPERIENCE THIS FOR YOURSELFGet started at https://liberate.love/begin?zachThe Love Map is a 45-minute guided conversation from home.

When Genise Fulton became a mom at 19, she assumed some of the life she imagined for herself would have to be put on hold. Years later, she's proving that “later” doesn't mean “never.”Now retired and living in Thailand, Genise is embracing a chapter centered around travel, wellness, fun, and—most importantly—herself. From Mexico, where she obtained permanent residency, to Vietnam, Costa Rica, and now Thailand, she's created a life that looks very different from the one she once thought was possible.In this conversation, we talk about early motherhood, retirement, travel, reinventing yourself, and what happens when you finally give yourself permission to live the life you once thought you missed out on.And there's a little plot twist: Genise and I first met in Bangkok in 2025, only to discover that we had once lived just ten minutes apart in New Jersey. Because apparently, we had to travel halfway around the world to meet.

We talk about manifestation, abundance, belief, prayer, and the power of conviction, plus why the stories you hold about money, success, relationships, health, and your dreams can either support your decision or quietly work against it. I also share the story of my daughter's transformation as a cross-country runner and how one clear decision completely changed what became possible for her.I also open up about dreams that took years to manifest, including Soul Writing Out Loud and our home in Costa Rica, and why the “in-between” season matters so much when you're waiting for your reality to catch up with your vision. If you've been wondering how to manifest your desires, strengthen your belief system, trust divine timing, and stop slipping back into doubt, this episode will help you shift from hoping into knowing and take the next step with greater certainty.IN THIS EPISODE:(0:00) Showing Up Unfiltered(0:47) Resetting After the Eclipse Portal(4:12) Why Wanting Keeps You Stuck(6:05) How Conviction Creates Results(7:07) The Decision That Changed My Daughter's Running(9:55) Why Some Dreams Take Time to Manifest(12:12) Rewrite the Stories Blocking Your Desire(14:19) Prayer, Faith and the Power of Declaration(16:27) What Happens in Your Brain When You Decide(19:52) How to Trust the In-Between(21:38) Guided Practice: Decide It Already Happened(23:37) Soul Writing Out Loud + Costa Rica Manifestation Stories(24:57) Final Thoughts + Subscribe

You set out to have more faith, not to practice witchcraft, so nothing about your prayer life ever felt like sorcery. You were quoting Scripture the whole time. You learned to declare the promise, stand on the Word, and pray until the breakthrough came. But somewhere in there your prayers quietly stopped being surrender and became leverage; you found the verse that guaranteed the outcome you already wanted and began aiming it at your finances, your marriage, your body, less like a child asking a Father and more like a technician working a system, and you never stopped to ask what He might want to change in you before He changed anything around you. My guest today is Christa Black Singh. Christa Black Singh spent years at the center of Christian worship, writing songs the church still sings and touring the world's biggest stages, before a search for healing pulled her one degree at a time into manifestation, astrology, tarot, energy work, and finally ayahuasca and plant-medicine ceremonies in Costa Rica, where she lost nearly everything before Jesus brought her home. She came back able to name what most of us cannot see: that the New Age and the prayer meeting are often running the same operating system. In this conversation, we take the cover off all of it: manifestation, Christian witchcraft, the divine feminine, New Thought and the law of attraction, and the self-help gospel that has climbed into too many pulpits under the name of a life-coach Jesus who asks nothing of you and changes nothing in you. Here is what makes it dangerous. It works. The counterfeit really does deliver the house, the outcome, the feeling, and it sends the invoice later, because a power that gives you what you want has become the source you now answer to. The question this conversation forces is not whether the New Age is real. It is whether you have been trying to run your own life as god and calling it Christianity. Wholeness never comes through control; it comes through surrender, through the fear of the Lord, through daily repentance and a hunger for Jesus Himself rather than what He can get you. So before you decide this one is about someone else, look honestly at your own prayers and ask which of them have been trying to bend God's arm instead of bowing your knee. Guest Bio Christa Black Singh is a songwriter and worship musician who spent years at the center of the Christian music world, writing for artists and movements the church still sings and touring for more than a decade with Michael W. Smith, before a long search for healing led her out of the faith and into the New Age through manifestation, energy work, and plant-medicine ceremonies that cost her nearly everything. She has since returned to Jesus and now speaks openly about the deception she once taught, helping others recognize the counterfeit and close the doors it opened. She hosts the Head to Heart podcast and teaches on spiritual discernment, deliverance, and healing.

What if your one-star review is not a disaster?What if it is actually one of the clearest ways to show people what your clinic stands for?In this episode of PT Breakfast Club, Jimmy McKay, Dave Kittle, and Tony Maritato talk about content, clinic storytelling, virtual assistants, outsourcing, moonlighting, AI, and referral relationships.Jimmy and Dave start by talking about why PT Breakfast Club seems to be connecting with people: it is loose, unscripted, opinionated, and willing to say the parts that usually get sanded off professional healthcare conversations.Then Dave shares why he made a video about a one-star Google review for Concierge Pain Relief. Instead of hiding the bad review or trying to delete it, he used it to explain how the practice works, why the model is different, and what type of patient may or may not be the right fit.Jimmy breaks down the difference between telling a story and storytelling, then shares how he borrowed Dave's idea for a wedding DJ marketing carousel built around fake one-star reviews from people whose weddings were too much fun.The conversation then shifts into operations. Dave explains his experiment with virtual assistants in Costa Rica who are helping handle phone calls, lead follow-up, scheduling, EMR entry, and front desk workflows. The challenge is not just answering the phone. It is teaching the system: geography, home visit scheduling, Google Maps, commute buffers, conversion rates, and all the tiny decisions that live inside a clinic owner's head.From there, the crew gets into AI, employee identity, outsourcing, moonlighting, no-solicitation agreements, and whether therapists should be allowed to work elsewhere while employed full-time.The episode closes with a setup for Thursday: a referral-source draft board. Who are the people in your neighborhood that PT clinics should build relationships with besides the obvious physician offices?

The sun is not as damaging as you've been told… Zaid Dahhaj shows us where the research breaks. Zaid runs The Circadian Classroom and studies circadian biology from first principles, which is how he ended up pulling apart the mainstream narrative around melanin, melanoma, and sunscreen. Once you understand that the research demonising UV is largely built on isolated UV exposure, nocturnal mice, albino mice, and keratinocyte-only petri dishes, the whole "sun causes cancer" story starts to look a lot less airtight. Melanin gets reframed here as an active defence system rather than damage on a ledger. It's photoprotective, it dissipates UV as heat, and it even chelates certain heavy metals. Night shift work is classified as a probable carcinogen, and most people are living a low-grade version of it: dark days indoors, and bright nights under LEDs. That's the inversion Zaid keeps coming back to. We also take a serious look at sunscreen chemistry, vitamin D3, sunglasses and eye health, seed oils and burn risk, and how to build a solar callus without frying yourself on a beach in Costa Rica. You'll learn: [0:00] Introduction [8:05] Night shift work's carcinogen classification and what it reveals about us all [11:21] Circadian repair restores UV-damaged cells so there's no accumulated damage [20:41] The sun-cancer research is built on nocturnal mice and isolated UV [30:34] The melanoma overdiagnosis problem and dermatology's stage zero caution [34:26] A tan isn't damage, melanin works as nature's sunscreen [47:16] The case for actively seeking the sun, and when to do it [51:58] Sunglasses remove one leg of the circadian stool [58:46] SPF 50 blocks the very anti-cancer vitamin D your skin needs [1:09:26] The exact daily routine to build your solar callus without burning Resources Mentioned: My Circadian App | Website Tap Zap App | Website In Defense of Sunlight by Rowan Jacobsen | Book or Audiobook Dr. Jack Kruse | Website A.

Latin America accounts for just a fraction of global tourism—but Melanie Marsell believes travelers are overlooking one of the most diverse regions in the world. As the co-founder of Explore the Americas and Dive the Americas, Melanie has built her career around helping people experience the region differently. Born in Costa Rica and raised between Costa Rica and Florida, her journey took her from hotels and travel consulting to scuba diving and eventually entrepreneurship. In Part 1 of this two-part series, we talk about what travelers actually value, responsible tourism beyond the buzzwords, the misconceptions still holding Latin America back, and what it takes to build a travel company around the places and principles you genuinely believe in. Next Wednesday, Melanie's business partner Kathleen Hall joins us for Part 2.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/globetrotters-podcast--5023679/support.

Cheryl Kellond made her first angel investment in an at-home fertility startup and watched it get written off to zero. She still says it was worth it, and she built Play Money to make sure more women get the chance to find out for themselves how to start angel investing. Cheryl is the founder and CEO of Play Money and a serial entrepreneur who has raised more than $20 million in venture capital and led nearly a billion dollars in product revenue. On Getting Rich Together, host Syama Bunten asks Cheryl about the founder who went silent after taking her money, and how that experience shaped an angel investing platform for beginners instead of scaring her off the space entirely. Cheryl breaks down why startup investing for women has long relied on fragmented deal flow, individual outreach, and warm introductions, and why she built Play Money to make angel investing work more like scrolling than fundraising. She also runs the math on an idea that became a major aha moment for her. If just 20 percent of accredited investors invested $10,000 a year, she says they could move $30 billion in capital and replicate the entire early-stage startup funding ecosystem. Cheryl also shares how to start angel investing with a check the size of a weekend trip, and why communication between founders and their investors matters long after the check is written.

A week can disappear when your to-do list is longer than your daylight, and we're feeling all of it: shop chaos, school nights creeping back in, and that familiar mix of “I ran all day” versus “I slept all day.” We talk through real garage-life problems, from a Scout that suddenly won't prime the fuel pump after a power wash to the kind of low-voltage, no-RPM-signal troubleshooting that makes you question every connector under the dash. Then we get into towing safety and the expensive reality of electric over hydraulic trailer brakes, where a sketchy wiring setup and a poorly mounted pump can turn into a thousand-dollar fix fast.We also share updates from our off-road world, including the latest on Core rig voting and a new twist that rewards the people who actually support the event: a sponsor pick plus a separate “crony pick” for rigs that don't win the public vote. We dig into what makes a rig application work, why clear photos matter more than they should, and how tire size and recovery gear requirements keep things fun and safe.Then Guyer takes us way outside the shop with an eye-opening Costa Rica mission trip recap. We talk volunteer construction at a missionary language school, battling termite damage with steel framing and repairs, visiting churches that look nothing like home, and meeting kids living with no running water, no electricity, and dirt floors, yet somehow showing up with the biggest joy. It all builds to a powerful moment in the Pacific Ocean and a closing reminder we all needed: make time for your friends before “later” turns into years.If this one hits you, subscribe, share it with a friend who needs a perspective reset, and leave a review so more people can find the show.Support the show#heattreatedgarage #fellas #myfriendsarebetterthanyourfriends #abethe50chevy #ickyvicky #tetanus #scout #htgadventures #socialbutterflymedia #crawleroffroad #podcast #nailedit #trailhated #seasontwo #dontfollowcal #meetnewpeople #ontherocksoffroad #988 #suicideawareness #wyattwarriorshttps://youtube.com/@heattreatedgarage?si=zKZLGcioixSqLbg8, https://youtube.com/@ricosgarage?si=eP4tMxqAGJozvHdq, Check out our Brothers over at On the Rocks Offroad Podcast https://feeds.buzzsprout.com/2317265.rss

Why do so many Spanish-speaking countries celebrate their independence in September? We explore the historical connections behind these celebrations, including how Guatemala, El Salvador, Honduras, Nicaragua, and Costa Rica came to share September 15, and why Mexico and Chile commemorate the beginnings of their independence movements rather than the dates they officially became independent. We also share our personal experience celebrating Chilean Independence Day, discuss the traditions and foods that make this season special, and look at how these dates connect to Hispanic Heritage Month in the United States. By the end, you'll have a better understanding of the history behind the celebrations—and perhaps a new reason to experience one for yourself while traveling.Key Takeaways:Learn why Guatemala, El Salvador, Honduras, Nicaragua, and Costa Rica share September 15 as an important independence date and how their shared history shaped the celebrations we know today.Discover why Mexico and Chile celebrate dates that mark the beginning of their independence movements, even though they became formally independent years later.Explore how independence celebrations bring together food, traditions, history, and local culture—and hear about our own experience celebrating Chilean Independence Day with locals.Relevant Links And Additional Resources:181 – Sobre Chile | About Chile056 – Cinco de Mayo034 – La Revolución Mexicana | The Mexican Revolution023 – La Independencia de México | Mexico's IndependenceLevel up your Spanish with our Podcast MembershipGet the full transcript of each episode so you don't miss a wordListen to an extended breakdown section in English going over the most important words and phrasesTest your comprehension with a multiple choice quizIf you enjoy Learn Spanish and Go, please consider subscribing, rating, and reviewing our podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Google Podcasts, or Pandora.

Gustav Magnuson and Luisa Fernandez met in Costa Rica in 2018 when Gustav was there on a cycling trip of Central and South America. The two felt such a strong and immediate connection that Gustav never made it farther south on his cycling tour. Instead, he stayed with Louisa in San Jose.A few years later the two were married and are now living in Stockholm with their one-year-old child.In an interview with The Local's Mandy Pipher they explain how Swedish immigration law is affecting their family life and their peace of mind.READ ALSO:'I feel shame and rage': Immigration clampdown hits Swedes close to home Become a member at https://www.thelocal.se/podcasts/podcast-offer?tpcc=padlock.

In 2019, I was a year into running my own suite — thriving on paper, lonely in reality. I didn't have anyone around me who understood where I was trying to go, and that kind of isolation messes with your confidence more than people talk about. Then I found a retreat on Instagram, marketed as "summer camp for hairstylists," and something in me said go.I flew alone for the first time. Slept in a room with strangers. Spent $6,000 I didn't feel ready to spend. And it changed the entire trajectory of my life — my friendships, my confidence, eventually this podcast, my own coaching business, and now my own retreat.In this episode, I'm sharing what I'd go back and tell that scared version of me: the people you meet on a retreat become your expanders, your insecurities aren't exclusive to you, and the most impactful moments are never the Instagrammable ones — they're the unplanned conversations and the girlhood laughter at 1am. I'm also talking about what self-trust actually looks like when you build it through discomfort instead of reading about it.If you're a hairstylist or salon owner who's felt isolated at the top of your own business, who's craving people who actually get your bigger vision, or who's been sitting on a retreat you're too scared to book — this episode is for you.This is also where I'm telling you about Industry Unplugged — my own retreat, happening in Costa Rica in April 2027. It's everything I've loved and learned from a decade of retreats, built into one experience for stylists and salon owners ready to invest in themselves the way I finally did in 2019.In this episode:Why isolation hits harder the more successful you getWhat an "expander" is and why you need people who have themThe unglamorous truth about what actually changes you at a retreatHow self-trust gets built through discomfort, not comfortMentioned in this episode:Industry: UNPLUGGED Retreat Join me and a small group of ambitious, seasoned women in the hair industry for a week in Costa Rica, April 2027!

Why do most expats moving to El Salvador pack up and fly home within three years, even after selling everything for their relocation dream of living abroad in Bitcoin country? Jenn Satterfeld ( @jeniarilagringasalvadorena ) has watched it happen over and over, and she says the ones who make it have something the others don't. I've got Jenn back in the studio, and she's the founder of Living Like a Local, one of the first immigration support and relocation companies in El Salvador. Oh, and she became a Salvadoran citizen the day before we recorded this.Jenn's own path started with world schooling her kids through Central America after her divorce, and she landed here before the Bitcoin Law even passed. Like most gringos, she figured Costa Rica was the place, until corruption, an impounded camper van, and four frustrating months sent her back to the one country that felt different. Then the Régimen de Excepción turned El Salvador into one of the safest countries in the world, her YouTube channel blew up overnight, and her subscribers became her first relocation clients.We get into how a lot of early Bitcoiners got themselves into trouble moving overseas, jumping in without due diligence and signing rental contracts they couldn't read in a legal system that works nothing like the one back home. Jenn explains why you can't sue your way out of a bad lease in El Salvador, why the cheapest lawyer ends up costing you more, and why the gringo tax exists but the folks who feel scammed usually just misread the culture. If you've got kids, you'll want to hear why El Salvador schooling comes before house hunting, and why she thinks educational sovereignty is the next wave coming after the Bitcoiners and the Canadians. Her investigation tour even sets off fireworks outside your hotel at midnight on purpose, because you'd better find out now if this country is for you.What I love most is Jenn's heart for community integration. She's watched the expat community wear out its welcome in Panama and Mexico by living in bubbles instead of becoming part of the neighborhood, and she's determined to keep that from happening here. Her service club, Darlo Mejor para El Salvador, connects expat mentors with Salvadoran youth, including an 87 year old Canadian engineer who answered Pres.  @nayibbukele 's call and now speaks to university students about futures they never imagined possible.If this episode made you want to pack your bags, or at least dodge a few lane splitting motorcycles, subscribe to the channel, share it with that friend who won't stop posting about leaving Canada, and tell us in the comments whether you'd survive fireworks outside your window at midnight.—Bitcoin Beach TeamLearn more about Jenn Satterfeld:Website: https://www.livinlikealocal.comYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/@jeniarilagringasalvadorenaInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/_jeni_ari_/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@_jeni_ari_FB: facebook.com/LivinLikeALocalSVSupport and follow Bitcoin Beach:X: https://www.twitter.com/BitcoinBeach IG: https://www.instagram.com/bitcoinbeach_sv TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@livefrombitcoinbeach Web: https://www.bitcoinbeach.com STAY AT BITCOIN BEACH: https://www.stayatbitcoinbeach.com/punta-mango-villasBrowse through this quick guide to learn more about the episode:00:00 Intro02:33 What is it like moving to El Salvador as a single mom with kids?04:58 Why are expats leaving Costa Rica for El Salvador?08:43 What does a relocation company in El Salvador actually do?13:56 What legal mistakes do foreigners make when moving to El Salvador?16:57 Should you visit El Salvador before moving there?22:15 Why do most expats move back home after two or three years?24:37 What are the best school options in El Salvador for expat families?28:43 Why are Canadians moving to El Salvador?35:21 How can expats give back and integrate into El Salvador?44:57 Is the gringo tax real or are expats just misreading the culture?46:50 How do you get Salvadoran citizenship as a foreigner? Live From Bitcoin Beach

1981 zog man Max Rüdlinger mitten aus einer Berner Demo vor die Filmkamera. Er träumte von grossen Rollen, Champagnerbädern und Frauen, die ihm zu Füsse lagen. Doch die internationale Filmkarriere blieb aus. Stattdessen spielte er ein Leben lang in Dutzenden von Filmen kleine Nebenrollen: Hauswarte, Polizisten, Miesepeter. So wurde er zum «Griesgram der Nation». Max Rüdlinger, geboren in Flums, war als junger Mensch ein Streber, bis er erkannte, wie leer ihn das Auswendiglernen machte. In der Folge suchte er als Revolutionär den Stunk auf der Strasse, hielt sich mit Gelegenheitsjobs über Wasser und landete immer wieder in improvisierten Filmen von Clemens Klopfenstein. Auf Filmplakate schaffte er es nicht allzu oft. Seine Visage, hiess es, tauge nicht als Verkaufsargument. Seine grosse Sinnkrise in der Lebensmitte pedalte Rüdlinger mit dem Velo nieder: Von der Schweiz bis fast ans Nordkap und von San Francisco nach Costa Rica. Wie er mit Enttäuschungen lebt, warum er lieber liest als dreht und wie wichtig ihm Spiritualität geworden ist, erzählt er in «Musik für einen Gast» bei Simon Leu.

She had a packed chiropractic practice, 150 to 200 patient visits a week, four kids, a husband who was a pilot, and was training for Iron Man races on the weekends. From the outside, the life was finished. Complete. And then something went quiet on the inside.Dr. Laura Foster spent 25 years as a chiropractor before the gap between who she was and who she was being in her life became impossible to ignore. She'd been setting goals, hitting them, and moving straight to the next one without pausing for even 10 seconds. She'd been outrunning her life in every literal and figurative sense of the word. And when she finally stopped, what she found was not what she expected.In this episode, Laura walks us through the breakdown that became her breakthrough: the year she sat in the discomfort, asked herself the questions she'd never thought to ask, and started making 2% shifts that changed the entire trajectory of her life. She now leads breathwork, homeopathy, and retreats for women going through their own version of that same reckoning. If you've ever hit a goal and felt nothing, or built a life that looks right but doesn't feel right, this conversation is for you.What You'll Learn:Why achieving your biggest goals can make you feel worse, and what that feeling is actually pointing toThe difference between achievement and fulfillment, and why most of us have been chasing the wrong oneWhat Dr. Laura means by "the gap" between who you are and who you're being, and why closing it doesn't mean burning everything downThe 2% shift: the golf ball foot analogy that reframes what big life change actually requiresWhy Laura stopped setting goals for a year, and what she discovered when she didHow to identify your top values and actually live them, not just list themThe homeopathy story that started with two small pellets, a whale-sized pregnant woman, and a very unexpected afternoonWhat three years in Costa Rica taught her about freedom, health, and choosing your own experienceYour Next Steps:Follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/eversiowellness/Shop Eversio Wellness and save 15% with code PODCAST15: https://www.eversiowellness.com/discount/PODCAST15?redirect=%2Fcollections%2Fall-productsTake our wellness QUIZ to find the right mushroom for you: https://www.eversiowellness.com/pages/take-our-quiz

I'm also sharing how Soul Writing helped me look at these experiences differently and recognize where life may be redirecting me.In this episode, I talk about how to shift your frequency without bypassing what you're actually feeling, use difficult experiences as information, and turn pain into medicine. We explore manifestation, visualization, movement, nervous system support, communication, and what it means to become more intentional with your energy when life is showing you something you don't want. My hope is that this conversation reminds you that even in the messy middle, you still have the power to choose how you respond, what you create next, and how you come back to yourself.IN THIS EPISODE:(0:00) Inside the diary series(1:53) Creating through the messy middle(4:47) Costa Rica home frustrations(6:16) Legal stress and the hair disaster(12:40) Spiraling and body warning signs(13:52) Soul Writing and the new show(17:20) Tools to shift your frequency(19:06) Lotus Rising coaching invitation(21:15) Turning pain into medicine

I was thrilled to welcome Debbi Dachinger to Soul Elevation to discuss her awakening into shamanism, channeling, and extraterrestrial contact. She recounts pivotal plant medicine experiences in Costa Rica where the Divine told her she was a shaman, healer, and priestess, followed by regression sessions revealing past lives including a tall Mayan priestess who communicated she was from another galaxy, prompting Debbi to shift her Dare to Dream podcast toward UFOs, consciousness, and galactic spirituality.  She describes ongoing UFO sightings, nighttime visitations, CE5 experiences, and strong connections with Lyran lion beings, a council of light beings, and dragons, including a QHHT session where she experienced being a dragon. We also discuss indigenous peoples' longstanding ET ties, government disclosure in 2026 as partial and redacted, and a rapid global awakening with gifted children.  Debbi also shares a free "starseed" resource and where to find her work.

What if the trip you thought was impossible was simply waiting for the right access? For many disabled travelers, dreaming about a destination comes with an immediate second thought: But can I actually go there? In Episode 154 of Pushing Forward with Alycia, Alycia Anderson sits down with Karen Morales, luxury travel advisor, speaker, wheelchair user, disability travel advocate, and leader within Fora Travel's accessibility initiative, for a conversation that may completely change the way you think about accessible travel. Karen lives with limb girdle muscular dystrophy and began using a wheelchair full time in 2020. But losing mobility did not mean losing her identity as a traveler. Instead, it pushed her to rethink what independence, adventure, and possibility could look like. And she went exploring. Japan. Morocco. Sicily. Costa Rica. France. Canada. Africa. Karen discovered that some of the destinations disabled travelers assume will be impossible can deliver extraordinary experiences when the right people, information, creativity, and hospitality come together. Her work is also proving something the travel industry cannot ignore. Fora's accessibility initiative has been associated with $75 million in accessible travel sales, showing that accessible hospitality is not merely about regulations or checking an ADA box. It represents a significant and underserved business opportunity. Karen's philosophy is refreshingly simple: Travel is travel. Hospitality is hospitality. Whether someone needs a roll in shower, a specific bed height, allergy accommodations, a medical refrigerator, sensory support, a service animal accommodation, or simply a different pillow, great hospitality begins by understanding what that traveler needs before they arrive. This conversation goes far beyond accessible hotel rooms. Alycia and Karen talk about accepting mobility devices, reclaiming independence, traveling with progressive disability, universal design, raising expectations, the power of lived experience, and why disabled people should not have to beg to participate in life's most beautiful experiences. And Karen leaves us with one invitation: Stop assuming the world is closed to you before you explore what might actually be possible.

Your intuition isn't quiet. It's just been out-shouted by your mind for years. In this episode, Emily Fletcher sits down with Anna Gannon, an intuitive psychic and energy mastery teacher who has spent years training hundreds of people to hear their own inner guidance. Anna breaks down the ten distinct ways intuition actually speaks, from chills and gut feelings to taste, smell, and a knowing with zero evidence to back it up, and explains why the heart always talks first. Anna also shares her own story: starting Ziva Meditation while deep in postpartum depression, then a solo pilgrimage to India where a kundalini awakening left her getting electrically shocked every five seconds for three months. She traces how her meditation foundation gave her the nervous system capacity to hold that awakening, and how Ziva Magic's emotional alchemy work helped her channel that raw current into her creativity and her marriage. The episode closes with a story of using her intuition to help heal her mother from a jungle hammock in Costa Rica. In this episode, Anna explores: The ten distinct ways intuition communicates, from sensing and feeling to clear hearing, seeing, taste, smell, and guidance Why her almost seven-year-old son told her, “my heart always talks first, it's just my mind is so much louder” A kundalini awakening in an Indian temple that left her electrified every five seconds for three months Why she believes her meditation practice made that awakening survivable instead of destabilizing How Ziva Magic's emotional alchemy helped her turn that life force into creativity and connection Her mentor's line: “this work doesn't make your life easier, it just gives you more choices” Healing her mother's body from across the world using nothing but intuition Why she never says “just trust your gut blindly,” and what she teaches instead Key Moments: 00:33 – The Kogi prophecy: the end falling into the beginning 05:02 – What an intuitive actually is 06:24 – Her son's line: “my heart always talks first” 09:26 – The ten ways intuition speaks 17:15 – Smelling radiation: a reading that revealed a client's cancer 21:52 – Why cells have two jobs: take care of themselves, take care of the whole 28:37 – Postpartum depression and the login that changed everything 32:42 – A solo pilgrimage to India, decided in one scroll 38:03 – The kundalini awakening in the temple 44:29 – Home, and electrified every five seconds for three months 48:44 – How Ziva Magic's emotional alchemy helped her channel the current 51:11 – How to start developing your own intuitive relationship today 1:01:29 – Healing her mother from a hammock in Costa Rica ✨ Ziva Magic is open.

Helga built a global budtender training program in 8 countries. Here's how she got there, and why the culture needs more people like her.Helga is a Costa Rican-born cannabis educator who worked her way from restaurant manager to cannabis club manager in Barcelona before launching Global Budtender Training, a worldwide certification program built in partnership with Oaksterdam University. In under a year she has trained over 100 budtenders across more than 8 countries, and the world tour is not close to finished.In this episode, recorded live at Mary Jane Berlin 2026, Helga and JP go deep on the gap between what the top of the cannabis industry knows and what actually reaches the person standing behind the counter. They break down the THC percentage myth and how lab manipulation pushes quality cultivars out of production. They talk through what day one for a new budtender should actually look like, why tasting the product is non-negotiable, and why a budtender is part psychologist, part pharmacist, and part friend all at once. Helga also tells the full story of how a stranger in a wheelchair at Spannabis handed her a cannabis university scholarship that changed everything.JP brings the legacy side: the original Cheese strain and why more people should be asking for it back, the history of piff and New York haze culture before Sour Diesel and Cookies took over the Northeast, and why passion for the plant is the only thing that keeps operators standing when the business gets hard. Good PizzZa is built to document conversations like this one. Educators, cultivators, legacy operators, and the people who love the plant enough to build something real around it.Chapters below.Connect with Helga:Website: www.globalbartendertraining.comInstagram: @globalbartendertrainingYouTube: Global Bartender TrainingFollow Good PizzZa:YouTube: goodpizzza.comInstagram: @_goodpizzza_ | @goodpizzzapodcastSpotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/2HHXF0ijATYi8eHIq0rDToApple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/good-pizzza-podcast/id1622059263CHAPTERS00:00 Global Budtender Training Program Introduction01:43 Costa Rica Cannabis Culture and Helga's Background05:06 Costa Rica Rosin, Hash, and the Path Toward Legalization07:36 How Helga First Got Into the Cannabis Industry08:55 Barcelona Cannabis Clubs and Starting as a Budtender12:24 Spannabis, the Scholarship, and the Moment That Changed Everything14:31 Cannabis University, Certified Budtender for Spain, and Launching Global Bartender Training17:22 How the Global Bartender Training Curriculum Works19:33 THC Percentage Myth and How Lab Testing Hurts the Culture25:01 Growing Up in Cannabis Culture: JP's Mom Still Grows at 7330:17 Day One Budtender Advice: Tasting Products and Building Team Culture35:55 Original Cheese Strain, Piff, and New York Haze History47:44 Ted's Budz and the California Rec Market50:51 Follow Your Dreams: Where to Find Global Bartender TrainingFind upcoming dates and registration at www.globalbartendertraining.com or on Instagram at @globalbartendertraining.LINKSConnect with the guest: Instagram: @globalbartendertrainingWebsite: www.globalbartendertraining.comYouTube: Global Bartender TrainingSpotify: Good PizzZa Podcast   |   Apple Podcasts: Good PizzZa PodcastFollow Good PizzZa: goodpizzza.com   |   Instagram @goodpizzza and @goodpizzzapodcastY'all know what time it is…Roll ‘em fat, torch your rigs, pack your bongs, bag up some work, water your plants—do what you gotta do because we're about to take this journey with Helga!✌

What if the thing you're trying to hide is the very thing God wants to heal? This week on Rambling Through Everyday Life, we go from monkeys in Costa Rica and an RV adventure to engagement news, books we're loving, and a much deeper conversation about faith, vulnerability, confession, and being truly seen by God. Fran opens up about a hard season and what the Lord is teaching her about the condition of our hearts. We talk about the desire to be seen and known, the motives behind what we do, and how easily we can overlook sinful patterns because they don't seem like a big deal. But sin left unconfessed doesn't stay small. It spreads like kudzu, quietly choking out the growth happening around it until we deal with it at the root. And confession? It isn't telling God something He doesn't already know. It's inviting Him into the places that need healing. We're talking about the serious and not-so-serious parts of everyday life and how God can use all of it to get our attention, reveal what's happening in our hearts, and draw us closer to Him. We encourage you to spend some time in Psalm 139 this week! We love y'all and we are so excited to kickoff another season with you!

Misty is calling out something nobody warns you about: the decision to change is almost always harder than the change itself. She takes you inside two of her own — quitting drinking, which took a full year of stressing, questioning, and mourning the “party girl” identity before she ever said her last drink, and growing out her natural gray at 41, which meant two weeks of tears, research, and asking herself if she was willing to feel “ugly” before she felt the prettiest she's felt in years.Then she brings it straight back to the chair. The same white-knuckle decision fatigue that shows up around quitting a habit shows up around raising your prices, changing your schedule, or finally breaking up with a client whose name on your book makes your stomach drop. Misty shares how she sat with a client relationship for a full year before making the call — and how the stress didn't lift when the situation changed, it lifted the moment she decided. Same story with the 2019 retreat she almost talked herself out of.If you're a hairstylist or salon owner who's stuck circling a decision — pricing, boundaries, your schedule, or something bigger — this episode is your permission slip to stop needing certainty and start experimenting. Self-trust isn't built by getting it right. It's built by deciding. hairstylist self-trust, hairstylist personal development podcast, hairstylist decision making, hairstylist burnout, salon owner mindset, hairstylist boundaries, breaking up with a client, raising your prices as a hairstylistMentioned in this episode:Industry: UNPLUGGED Retreat Join me and a small group of ambitious, seasoned women in the hair industry for a week in Costa Rica, April 2027!

Chef John's love of cooking started long before he ever opened a restaurant. Rooted in Genovese and Sicilian tradition, his lessons came from family tables in San Francisco, California, with Mamalee, his father John and from summers spent in Italy learning to make pasta by hand alongside his great aunt, Lala Mariuchia and cousins — the same way his family has for generations. That heritage carried him through one previous restaurant in Costa Rica, before bringing him home to Texas. While building his culinary journey, Chef John also dedicated more than 20 years to the San Francisco Police Department, retiring as a Sergeant after a distinguished career. He spent the majority of those years working in plainclothes and undercover assignments, including serving as a Task Force Officer with the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA). Throughout his years in law enforcement, his passion for cooking never faded-it simply waited for the right time to become his full time calling. Today, inside the historic Rogers Hotel in downtown Waxahachie, John's Place is Chef John's second concept and his most personal expression of everything he loves about food, family and hospitality. Family photos line the walls, and an open kitchen behind the bar offers guests a front-row seat to the teamwork and craftsmanship that brings each dish to life. Whether he's working the line or stopping by tables to great guests, Chef John's genuine passion is unmistakable. Every plate tells a story, every meal honors his family's legacy and every guest is welcome as if they were part of it.https://www.visitjohnsplace.comSend us Fan MailFirecracker Farm Small-batch Spicy Salt Family farm with a secret blend of Carolina Reaper, Ghost, and Trinidad Scorpion peppers.Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.

Ever thought of hitting the road in a retrofitted van? Victoria Lee Starr did it in midlife and found her true self. She became a guide for women through the sacred season of midlife reinvention, helping them reclaim self-trust, inner safety and their authentic power. Using transformational breathwork, guided microdosing support, somatic ritual and emotional excavation, her work meets women in the places most avoid... the unraveling, the burning, the falling apart...and transforms those moments into a becoming.Victoria's own awakening began in Costa Rica, when everything she thought she needed to feel loved, safe or worthy started to collapse. What looked like failure was actually her Rite of Passage into self-trust, honesty and the woman you become when you stop abandoning yourself.After leaving an emotionally abusive relationship, Victoria rebuilt her life from the ground up and spent nearly four years living full-time in her Ram Promaster van with her dog, Olivia Grace. Her van became her initiation chamber, a sacred space to learn to trust her body, intuition, truth and the quiet voice that had been waiting decades to lead.Victoria works through psychological wisdom, nervous system healing, transformational breathwork, guided microdosing, intuitive channeling, somatic rituals and emotional excavation. She helps women fully be themselves in midlife, showing them that falling apart is often the beginning of becoming.She calls herself a "spiritual outlaw" because she refuses to heal or lead within the confines of traditional systems, surface-level fixes or fluff. "This work is not about bypassing the hard stuff, it's about entering the sacred, messy, untamed places where real healing lives," Victoria says. "I walk between realms of emotional, spiritual, somatic and psychological and I'm not here to guide women to think their way into peace. I guide you to feel, to embody and to remember. A spiritual outlaw breaks the rules of what healing is 'supposed to' look like; doesn't fix you — she walks with you as you unlearn the lies and reclaim your soul; channels deep wisdom that comes from lived experience, intuition and higher intelligence — not just certifications; uses non-linear tools like breathwork, somatic ritual and emotional excavation to guide people back to their power; refuses spiritual bypassing and meets you in the root of it — trauma, lineage, nervous system patterns — and helps transmute them into gold; and is wildly intuitive, slightly rebellious, deeply grounded and divinely guided."In this episode, we talk about:--Midlife as a Rite of Passage--Why women in their 40s, 50s and 60s are unraveling and why this is actually the beginning of their becoming.--Being a Spiritual Outlaw--The future of healing beyond fluffy positivity and patriarchal conditioning--Breathwork + Microdosing using natural, non-addictive medicine for Emotional Reinvention--A grounded, embodied approach for women ready to reclaim self-trust and inner safety.--Living on the Road After Burning Down Your Life--Lessons from four years of nomadic living about freedom, intuition and rebuilding identity.--Rebirth After Divorce, Abuse and Identity Collapse--How to trust yourself again when everything familiar has fallen away.She offers free resources:Her Guided Meditation Collection consists of short, soul-nourishing meditations for midlife transformation:https://www.victorialeestarr.com/free-meditationBreathe with Intention: Your ToolkitPractical breathwork exercises to reclaim calm, clarity and self-trust:https://www.victorialeestarr.com/free-breathe-toolkitHot Flashes BreathworkA focused practice for navigating menopause with embodiment and empowerment:https://www.victorialeestarr.com/hotflashesLearn more:Website: https://www.victorialeestarr.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/victorialeestarr/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/victorialeestarrLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/victoria-starr-68495a280/

The Costa Rica family vacation that Dale spent months worrying about… ended up becoming one of his favorite trips ever. After expecting long days, difficult excursions, and a vacation that might test his patience, Dale quickly found out the best moments weren't the ones anyone planned. From exploring the jungle and seeing wildlife up close, to hiking through the mountains, swimming in a freezing waterfall, and watching the kids embrace every adventure, the trip turned into a collection of memories the whole family will never forget. The chaos didn't stop there. Dale and Amy share stories from surfing attempts, a wild catamaran adventure, and an unexpected vow renewal organized by the kids that became one of the most special moments of the trip. They also talk about dreaming of life on a catamaran, why Dale may not be as adventurous as he thinks, and the little moments that ended up meaning the most.
