What happens when luxury design meets the wild?Award-winning designer, Graeme Labe, Managing Partner and Chief Design Officer at Luxury Frontiers, shares how he's redefining hospitality by crafting experiences that connect people deeply to nature, while championing sustainability and community. Graeme shares his journey from traditional hospitality design to founding Luxury Frontiers, which focuses on creating unique, luxurious experiences in remote locations. The conversation covers topics such as the importance of experiential hospitality, the challenges of working in remote environments, and the role of sustainability and community engagement in their projects. Graeme also discusses the innovation culture within his team, their participation in the Radical Innovation Award, and the significance of site-specific design.Takeaways: Focus on creating unique, immersive experiences that connect guests to their environment, rather than just providing traditional luxury.Design experiences that gently push guests out of their comfort zones, allowing them to grow while still feeling safe and cared for.Integrate sustainability into every aspect of your projects: from site selection and building materials to community engagement and ongoing operations.Foster a culture of innovation within your team. Set up internal labs or competitions to encourage experimentation with new materials and ideas.Use natural materials and let the surrounding environment take center stage in your designs. Break down barriers between indoors and outdoors to enhance biophilic experiences.Thoughtfully integrate technology to improve comfort and accessibility, but also create opportunities for guests to disconnect and fully immerse themselves in the experience.Treat logistical, regulatory, and environmental constraints as opportunities to innovate and improve your designs.Quote of the Show:“ It's those moments that take you out of your comfort zone, when you're truly immersed in a place, that change your life. That's the kind of experience we try to design for.” - Graeme LabeLinks:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/graeme-labe-a0332b19/ Website: https://www.luxury-frontiers.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/luxury_frontiers/ Shout Outs:1:16 - Radical Innovation https://www.radicalinnovation.io/ 1:53 - AHEAD Awards https://www.aheadawards.com/ 5:26 - The Lion King https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Lion_King 7:08 - Orient Express Hotels https://www.orient-express.com/hotels 9:47 - Volkswagen https://www.vw.com/en.html 9:48 - Coleman https://www.coleman.com/ 22:16 - Luca Franco https://www.linkedin.com/in/luca-franco-5507b311/ 28:18 - Blue Sky Award https://www.blueskyawards.com/en/ 30:41 - Anomien Smith https://www.linkedin.com/in/anomien-smith-73917715/ 35:02 - The Crown https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Crown_(TV_series) 35:05 - King George https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_III 35:09 - Queen Elizabeth https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elizabeth_II 41:34 - Hirsch Bedner https://hba.com/ 41:45 - Michael Bedner https://hba.com/legacy/ 50:59 - Six Senses https://www.sixsenses.com/en/ 51:04 - Ritz Carlton https://www.ritzcarlton.com/ 51:06 - Marriott https://www.marriott.com/default.mi 51:07 - Four Seasons https://www.fourseasons.com/

In todays episode I cover an uplevel to the basics. What is Frequency Work? It's not relief—it's recursion collapse. We work at the signal level to restructure the code your identity runs on.What It Does:Collapses survival loopsRewrites perception + memoryVoids phantom contractsRestores coherence to your systemWhat's a Pattern (Really)? More than behavior. It's a repeating structure of perception, emotion, somatic imprint, and energetic signal.Memory = Recursion You don't just remember—you re-render. Until collapsed, memory keeps looping as truth.Perception = Signal Registration You only see what your system is calibrated to let in. Change perception, and the pattern can't hold.What Collapses in Sessions:Rendering Loops → stop compilingIdentity Bindings → no longer youError Codes → revokedPhantom Contracts → voidedArchive. Rewrite. Delete. Integrate. Different layers require different exits. We don't manage stories. We collapse source files.This Is Reality Architecture. Not symptom regulation. Not space-holding. This is identity re-sequencing through frequency + form. And it changes everything.---A high vibe podcast ya'll exploring all things Frequencies— How they govern form, shape our realities, and are the key to living from your full potential.

Key Points: Relationships are the foundation – Liz built her business through authentic connections, from a friend's simple gift to community and church involvement. Integrate business into life – Instead of sacrificing family time, she weaves her business into events she's already attending like birthdays, graduations, and church gatherings.

In this In Case You Missed It (ICYMI) article-read, we explore how thoughtfully curated artwork can do far more than simply “decorate” a space. It can help anchor brand identity, support wayfinding, and even deepen a sense of place and belonging for occupants. Adapted from the article, "Art in Interiors: Why Integrate Local Culture Into Commercial Spaces?" written by Rose Morrison and published on the interiors+sources website on June 18, 2025, this episode highlights strategies designers can use now, including: How to engage local communities and makers Integrating art with architecture rather than adding it last Source regionally to support sustainability goals Consider sensory-friendly choices that make spaces more inclusive Along the way, we visit examples from retail, hospitality, healthcare, government, and education—from joyful neighborhood murals to mission-driven installations—that show art's power to connect people, culture, and purpose inside the built environment.

Send Us a Message!What if the parts of yourself you've been hiding aren't broken—but the very key to your healing?

From there, you'll be guided through a powerful 5-step shadow work process designed to help you heal and integrate your shadows: ✨ Recognize triggers with self-awareness ✨ Meet patterns with curiosity instead of judgment ✨ Practice radical self-acceptance with accountability ✨ Alchemize old beliefs into new possibilities ✨ Integrate through conscious routines and emotional regulationYou'll also learn how shadows commonly show up in everyday life—through grief, addictions, people-pleasing, escapism, or emotional reactivity—and how compassion can transform them from destructive cycles into sources of wisdom and strength.If you've been curious about shadow work, trauma healing, or spiritual awakening, this episode reframes shadow work as a path to wholeness, resilience, and emotional freedom. You'll walk away with practical tools and spiritual insight to support your healing journey and reclaim the energy that has been trapped in old patterns.Whether you're new to shadow work or seeking deeper integration, this conversation will help you move beyond self-sabotage and step into a life rooted in authenticity, self-love, and inner power.Ready to dive deeper?

Young adult professionals oftentimes relocate to new communities as they start a career. As they seek to practice their faith in a new community, they can encounter stumbling blocks as they integrate into parish life after experiencing college campus ministry. Listen to Fr. Frank Donio, S.A.C share more in this segment of the Son Rise Morning Show on Sacred Heart Radio, about how parishes can welcome and help young adult professionals integrate into the larger community of faith.College campus ministries offer young adults numerous faith-based events and catechesis that cater to the students' needs. After graduation, some young professionals may have a hard time finding a sense of community in a new parish, which may lead to them leaving the faith all together. To address the needs of young adults in parish communities, parishes need to prioritize welcoming and getting to know young adult community members. Parishes could offer mentorship opportunities to young adults and specifically inviting the young adults into service.Notes:Listen to On Mission: The Knights of ColumbusFriends Help You Stay Catholic in CollegeYoung SaintsSpiritual Growth During Collegiate YearsOther episodes about Young Adults From the Ad Infinitum blog:10 Ways to Remain Active in Your Faith Life During CollegeYoung Adults Follow us:The Catholic Apostolate CenterThe Center's podcast websiteInstagramFacebookApple PodcastsSpotify Fr.

Please forward this to ONE friend today and tell them to subscribe here.In this episode, I'm speaking to Sweta Regmi, who's lived in Canada for over two decades.Two decades is a while, and Sweta says if she were to compress all she's learned over those years into one piece of advice for new immigrants, it would be "ASK FOR HELP."I agree. I learned this the hard way. And maybe someday I'll tell that story. But yes, ask for help. Don't try to figure it out all on your own. But there are caveats here. As Sweta puts it, "Watch out for folks who who project their own limitations onto you, like someone who tells you that making six figures is impossible."I think the key message Sweta is passing on here is find people who have lived the life you want to live. This isn't about finding someone with a PhD or a fancy title, but someone with relatable, lived experience who can offer genuine guidance.In this conversation, Sweta and I chat about the importance of finding mentors who are honest about their struggles. We also explore:* Why she sees her 25-year journey in Canada as beautiful* The origin story behind her business, TeachnDo* Why she resisted celebrating Canadian holidays at first, and what changed her mind* Why you shouldn't compromise your identity just because you want to fit inDozie's NotesA few things that stuck with me as I listened through this week's conversation:* Not judging anyone, but those little compromises you make to fit in can often backfire. Integrate all right, but don't erode your sense of self in the process. You have a heritage that's beautiful in its own right. * Continuing from above, moving means you can curate the culture you want to uphold or live by. You can choose to discard the negative aspects of your heritage or home culture (like gender biases in Sweta's case) and replace them with the positive elements from your new culture. The result is a new personalized way of life. Sounds utopian, but it's doable.* The source of your advice can make or break you. I would go further to say the folks you speak to within the first two weeks in the country can limit or propel you forward.

I'm bringing back your absolute favourite guest, Nivek Harrison, for a special 2 part series. Niv is our incredible online business manager and longtime co-coach here at Swift Ventures and we're peeling back the curtains on how we co-coach in the Scalable Freedom Mastermind, what it practically looks like behind the scenes and how we work together to serve our clients in the best possible way. Niv and I have completely different skillsets which makes our dynamic really special and something that I absolutely cherish. If you've been curious about adding a co-coach to your mastermind or wondering how the dynamics actually play out behind the scenes, this conversation is for you.We talk about the foundation of successful co-coaching, which starts with values alignment paired with complementary strengths. I share why you don't want a carbon copy of yourself as a co-coach and how different perspectives actually serve your clients better. We explore the crucial role of trust in co-coaching relationships and why giving your co-coach freedom to anchor into their leadership creates the safe, supportive environment clients crave. The conversation also covers how to handle disagreements constructively, removing ego from the equation to focus on what's best for the business and clients. We address the common concern of "what if my perfect co-coach leaves?" and discuss how to integrate their expertise without making them the cornerstone your mastermind depends on.Key Takeaways from This Episode:• Find a co-coach with complementary strengths, not someone who's a carbon copy of you • Trust is the foundation—give your co-coach freedom to lead in their expertise • Handle disagreements with clear communication and remove ego from the situation • Always come back to what's best for the business and client, even if personal opinions differ • Integrate co-coach expertise as enhancement, not as the core foundation of your mastermind • Your mastermind must be able to thrive even if your co-coach moves on • Stay actively present as the lead coach to maintain the integrity of the client experience • Robust systems and documentation are essential for seamless co-coaching collaborationIf you're considering adding co-coaching to your mastermind or wondering how to make the dynamics work effectively, remember that it starts with finding someone whose strengths complement yours and whose values align with your mission. When you get that foundation right, the magic that unfolds will benefit everyone involved. Make sure you stay tuned for Part 2 next week.Connect with Nivek Harrison:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thevirtualchapter/Podcast: Effortless Online SystemsConnect with Ellie: Sign up for my FREE 3 day training Build, Fill & Scale a Mastermind hereApply for the Scalable Freedom Mastermind hereFREE Private Podcast “Inside a 7-Figure Mastermind Business” hereWebsite: https://www.ellieswift.com/Instagram: @elliehswiftFacebook Group: www.facebook.com/groups/shineonsocialellieswift/

Can dreaming help us integrate psychedelic experiences? How dreams and visions can both take us to the boundaries of consciousness. Today's guest Adam Miezio talks about how dreams and psychedelics both access the unconscious and that taking powerful psychedelics can be like tilling the soil of consciousness. He describes what he calls divine influx or a cosmic download in which we have insights that seem to be from outside of ourselves and about the pros and cons of setting intentions. Also the hypnagogic state, mysticism, and the collective unconscious. After the break, we take a question from Max about the difference between the subconscious and the unconscious, and we talk about John Lilly who used LSD to communicate with dolphins in the 1970s and developed sensory isolation tanks. We end with Katherine sharing some of her experiences of being high in dreams and Adam recommends the movie Waking Life. Global Psychedelic Week will be an online conference November 3-9. BIO: Adam Miezio is a writer in the psychedelics field, thanks to lifelong psychedelic journeying and plant medicine work. Born in Chicago, he received his master's degree from Northeastern Illinois University.. He writes about mental health, psychedelics, psychology, shamanism, and fringe ideas on the fuzzy periphery of consciousness. He resides in Oaxaca, Mexico.

Welcome to episode 217 - Highs and Lows, in this episode we will talk about how life is full of ups and downs—and I'm learning more and more that both are not only inevitable, but necessary. In this episode, I share how I've been thinking about highs and lows lately, and why the “low tide” moments in our lives are not something to rush through or judge, but to actually honor and work with. I'll take you back to a trip my family and I took to Haystack Rock on the Oregon coast, and how seeing it at both high tide and low tide became a powerful metaphor for my own life (and maybe for yours too). I'll also talk about the natural emotional waves we experience—whether we're in the middle of a mission, adjusting to life after, or supporting someone we love—and how the ebb makes the flow possible. If you've been feeling like you're in a dip, this episode is your reminder that it's part of the process, it's part of the beauty, and it often brings its own treasures if we let it. Let's walk through it together. As always, if you found this episode helpful, I want to invite you to subscribe if you aren't already, share this episode with your friends and missionaries you know, and write a review. I know this work will help LDS missionaries around the world and it would mean so much to me if you did. Until next week my friends.

In this episode of Business Coaching Secrets, Karl Bryan flies solo (with Road Dog sending in questions) and dives deep into trending business topics, including the unpredictable future of AI, motivating affluent business owners, mastering networking charisma, and the true meaning of adaptability in business. Karl also shares a heartfelt personal story and his “Zen” take on purpose, legacy, and what makes life meaningful—offering practical strategies and inspirational takeaways for coaches and entrepreneurs aiming to thrive in a rapidly changing world. Key Topics Covered 1. AI Uncertainty, Hype, and How to Handle It as a Coach Karl reflects on reactions to his AI predictions and discusses why the loudest experts often know the least. Real-world AI adoption is more delayed and unpredictable than people expect—think self-driving cars and regulatory hurdles. The smarter play: treat AI as “gasoline” (an accelerator), not the “vehicle.” Integrate and adapt, but don't get paralyzed by hype or panic. Educate yourself, but don't let the hype steal your focus—stay grounded in serving clients and growing your practice. 2. The Four Pillars of a Meaningful Life Karl opens up about a personal loss, sharing four foundational elements for a purposeful life: something to love, something to look forward to, something to work on, and something to believe in. He ties these into both personal and coaching success, urging listeners to minimize distractions (entertainment) and maximize presence, connection, and purpose. 3. How to Motivate Wealthy (Non-Money-Motivated) Clients Most people are driven by money, status, relationships, or freedom; successful business owners often shift motivation from money to status or freedom. Karl stresses you must first discover their TRUE motivator—often it's still achievement, status, freedom, or a new challenge. Set clear rules and targets: If the goalpost keeps moving (“I just need 3x more to feel successful”), help them create urgency and satisfaction with a concrete number and timeframe. 4. Charisma and Connection in Networking The #1 secret to converting coaching clients at groups like BNI or Chamber: charisma. Ditch the boring, predictable intros. Karl shares headline techniques for memorable, magnetic first impressions and the power of presence. True connection comes from listening to listen (not to respond), giving others your undivided attention, and being both interesting and interested. Actionable body language and confidence cues, plus tips for delivering genuine, effective compliments. 5. Adaptability Over Strength Businesses (and coaches) that survive and thrive aren't the strongest—they're the most adaptable. Real-world examples: McDonald's pivot to breakfast, Netflix's shift to content creation, Lego's partnerships, and Karl's own pivot to focus on profit (not just revenue) in his Profit Acceleration Software. Adaptability is about integrating feedback fast, pivoting with change, and using new technology (like AI) as an accelerator, not a crutch. Notable Quotes “AI is gasoline, not the vehicle… use it as turbo for your business.” “You want to motivate someone? First, know exactly what motivates them.” “Be interesting and be interested. Give them the gift of your presence.” “It's not the strong who survive—it's the adaptable.” “Four things for a meaningful life: something to love, something to look forward to, something to work on, something to believe in.” Actionable Takeaways Use AI as an Accelerator: Educate yourself on AI tools and opportunities, but don't let the noise overwhelm you—focus on integrating AI to speed up and improve what you already do well. Double Down on Connection: Whether with clients or new contacts, deliver your full attention, make genuine compliments, and be confident in your introductions to stand out in a crowd. Discover and Target Core Motivators: Before you can motivate a client (especially one who thinks they've “arrived”), figure out if they're now seeking status, freedom, or new achievement—then tailor your coaching accordingly. Limit Distraction, Maximize Purpose: Trim entertainment and refocus on your own family, finances, and business. Use the “four pillars of meaning” as a self-check. Set Concrete Goals and Rules (for Yourself and Clients): Instead of always moving the goalpost, agree on a success benchmark and timeframe. Use time as a tool to create urgency and satisfaction. Practice Charisma at Networking Events: Open with confidence—try lines like, “Hi, I'm Karl Bryan. I don't think we've met yet.” Share your three most interesting facts, and always listen to truly understand. Model Adaptability: Stay ready to pivot—learn from feedback, embrace new technologies, and don't get stuck in old ways just because they once worked. Resources Mentioned Profit Acceleration Software (developed by Karl Bryan) – Tools for coaches to accelerate business profits using incremental improvements. Networking Groups: – BNI, Chamber of Commerce Recommend Reading: – “The Game” by Neil Strauss (for lessons on charisma and connection) Mindset Quotes: – Mother Teresa on the ripple effect of one person's love – Wayne Gretzky on skating not to the puck, but “where the puck is going” If you enjoyed the episode, please subscribe, share with a fellow coach, and leave a review.

Authentic leadership through inner work is more than a practice, it's the key to unlocking your full potential and creating lasting impact as a leader. In this powerful episode of Reflect Forward, I sit down with Carrie Freeman, CEO and General Manager of Vara Winery and Distillery, who shares how embracing vulnerability, intuition, and self-awareness has completely transformed her leadership style and elevated her success. Carrie's extraordinary journey from global innovation executive to winery CEO illustrates how leading from the inside out creates deeper connections, stronger teams, and greater fulfillment. Carrie has a fascinating background, transitioning from her role as co-CEO of SecondMuse, a global innovation company that collaborated with organizations such as NASA, the White House, and the World Bank, to now running a thriving winery and distillery. We discuss the realities of operating a winery, examining how Carrie's leadership skills enabled her to enter an industry where she initially lacked expertise—and why being an outsider can sometimes provide the fresh perspective a business needs most. Throughout our conversation, Carrie highlights the misconception that humans are purely rational decision-makers. She emphasizes that relying exclusively on logic can limit our ability to lead effectively. By tapping into intuition, emotion, and inner wisdom, leaders can gain deeper insights, make better decisions, and build stronger relationships. Mic Drop Moment: • “Expertise is valuable, but curiosity is a superpower. When you admit you don't know everything, you unlock your team's full potential.” • “Sometimes there isn't a problem to solve. True leadership is knowing when to step back and let things unfold.” What You'll Learn in This Episode: • Why Expertise Isn't Everything • Inner Work as the Foundation for Outer Success • Balancing Masculine and Feminine Energy • Vulnerability as a Strength Key Takeaways: 1. Be Curious, Not Just Expert: Embrace curiosity and humility; empowering your team can often yield better solutions than claiming expertise. 2. Listen to Your Intuition: Great leaders trust their gut and heart as much as their intellect; purely rational decisions often miss deeper insights. 3. Integrate, Don't Balance: Leadership is not about perfect balance but about discerning when to engage action-oriented or intuitive energies effectively. 4. Lead with Vulnerability: Authenticity and vulnerability build deeper trust, stronger relationships, and a healthier organizational culture. 5. Recognize There Isn't Always a Problem to Solve: Resist the urge to fix everything; sometimes stepping back and allowing situations to naturally evolve is the best course of action. About Carrie Freeman: Carrie Freeman is the CEO and General Manager of Vara Winery and Distillery in Albuquerque, NM, and previously served as co-CEO of SecondMuse, a global innovation consultancy. Passionate about authentic leadership, innovation, and sustainability, Carrie guides leaders and businesses toward deeper success by emphasizing self-awareness, purpose, and authenticity.
