Bubba and Pete continue their deep dive into the rise of Mexico's modern cartel system, tracing what happened after the old Guadalajara structure fractured and independent networks began competing for territory, routes and influence. The episode follows the evolution of Sinaloa, Tijuana, Juárez, the Gulf Cartel and Los Zetas, including the air bridge that helped keep Sinaloa alive, tunnels beneath the border, large-scale smuggling operations, U.S. distribution hubs and the alliances that reshaped the drug trade. They also examine how the system became increasingly fragmented, with hundreds of organizations operating across Mexico, setting the stage for the emergence of Jalisco New Generation.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Gary reveals how meditation opened his connection with Joshua, a collective of non-physical teachers, and explains why our beliefs and perspectives shape the reality we experience.Together, they explore channeling, spirit guides, pre-birth intentions, free will, limiting beliefs, light language, manifestation, and why life may be designed for discovery rather than certainty.Then the conversation becomes personal as Christy connects with Rachel's spirit guides live.

In episode 491 of F-Stop Collaborate and Listen, host Matt Payne talks with guest Meredith Fontana, a Denver-based landscape photographer and former paleontologist, about the journey toward discovering a unique photographic voice. Drawing on her scientific background, Meredith Fontana highlights how observation skills honed in paleontology have profoundly shaped her approach to photography, allowing her to notice and capture details that many overlook. The conversation explores why deeply personal connections to subject matter are vital for moving beyond technical mastery and instead creating work rooted in authentic experience rather than chasing trends or iconic locations. Meredith Fontana shares strategies for photographers struggling to find their own vision, including the importance of solitude, immersion in nature, and mindful inward reflection—citing practices such as journaling, meditation, and extended wilderness trips as powerful catalysts for creative growth. The episode also touches on challenges women face in outdoor photography, the benefits of community and mentorship, and the goals of her Nature Photography Academy, which helps photographers transition from technical proficiency to artistic expression. Throughout, both speakers stress the value of pursuing what excites you and allowing your authentic interests to guide your creative process, ultimately encouraging listeners to identify and lean into the unique elements that set their photography apart.

Bubba and Pete trace the history of the North American drug trade from its earliest roots to the birth of the modern cartel era. The story begins with the Manila Galleons and centuries of trade between China and Mexico, then moves through opium production in Sinaloa, Chinese immigration, Civil War-era morphine demand, Prohibition and organized crime. From Bugsy Siegel and the mob to Operation Condor, Pablo Escobar, Kiki Camarena, Rafael Caro Quintero and the Guadalajara Cartel, they follow the people, politics and economic forces that transformed the trade. The journey ends in 1989, when the collapse of the Guadalajara network helped give rise to the cartel structure that would dominate the decades that followed.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

You're not broken, you're human. And being human is often difficult and contradictory work. Shadow work is grounded in deep internal reflection, not self-optimization. "Jung describes the shadow as containing not only rejected or socially unacceptable impulses, but also normal instincts and creative capacities that have been disowned in the process of adaptation. The problem is not that these impulses exist. The problem is whether they remain unconscious and therefore act autonomously.Integrating the shadow does not mean indulging it or acting it out. It means recognizing that certain impulses, emotions, or desires are part of your psychic reality and taking conscious responsibility for how they are held and expressed. Jung emphasizes that this task "challenges the whole ego-personality," requiring sustained ethical effort rather than a dramatic confession or catharsis.From this perspective, shadow work does not excuse harmful behavior. On the contrary, it reduces the risk of unconscious enactment by bringing disowned material into conscious awareness. This is why Jung places ethical responsibility firmly with the ego. Awareness increases choice. Lack of awareness increases compulsion."https://meridianuniversity.edu/content/shadow-work-meaning-in-jungian-psychology-explainedhttps://academyofideas.com/2020/02/how-to-integrate-your-shadow/Read Julie's Medium Blog.Support JULIE (and the show!)Support + get some bonus stuff over on PATREON.Get an occasional personal email from me: www.makeyourdamnbedpodcast.comTune in on INSTAGRAM AND YOUTUBE or TIKTOK.Info on War Tax Resistance.Donate to the Palestinian Children's Relief Fund and the Sudan Relief FundThe opinions expressed by Julie Merica and Make Your Damn Bed Podcast are intended for entertainment purposes only.

Get the free companion guide for this episode here   Ever watched American Beauty and felt a strange kinship with the moment Kevin Spacey's character quits his job to go work the drive through window? Brooklyn opens this episode with that scene because she's been there too, and she suspects a lot of women running private practices have been there as well. From the drive through she moves into a personal update about manifesting a new, spacious chapter of her own life, and how chasing that spaciousness led her back to a realisation about who she actually serves and why her messaging needed a tweak, not an overhaul. The heart of this episode is goal setting for therapists in private practice, and the difference between a goal and an intention. Brooklyn breaks down why so many counsellors, psychologists, and social workers end up feeling like a hamster on a wheel, endlessly ticking off to-do lists that never actually shift the numbers in the business. Her argument is simple. A goal is external and measurable, something like five new inquiries by Friday, while an intention is internal, the why and the how underneath it. Without a goal, a to-do list just keeps growing and you never get the felt sense of progress, even when you're working flat out. To explain why so many private practice owners get caught in this loop, Brooklyn walks through the difference between an employee mindset and a business owner mindset. When you work for someone else, your tasks are prioritised for you, your performance is tracked and reviewed, and someone else notices when you do well. When you're running your own private practice, none of that oversight exists automatically, which is why tracking KPIs in private practice becomes so important once you're out on your own. Brooklyn draws on her own background managing government contracts and working inside Medicare, where every appointment and every outcome was monitored, to show just how different it feels the moment you're suddenly self-directed with no one checking your numbers but you. This episode is for you if you've been asking why am I not getting more clients despite doing all the things, or if you've noticed you're posting on Instagram and Facebook because it feels productive rather than because it's actually moving the business forward. Brooklyn's message is that the business is a vehicle to the life you actually want, whether that's more time, more money, or more freedom, and setting a proper goal, paired with the intention behind it, is what gets you there instead of just keeping you busy.

Keywords used: goal setting for therapists in private practice, business owner mindset vs employee mindset, why am I not getting more clients, tracking KPIs in private practice, private practice business goals Australia, how to set goals in private practice, why nothing is working in my private practice, moving from employee mindset to business owner, setting intentions for your business, how to stop feeling stuck in private practice Mini FAQ: Q: What's the difference between a goal and an intention in business? A: A goal is external and measurable, like wanting five new inquiries by a certain date, while an intention is internal, the why and the how behind that goal. Q: Why do private practice owners feel busy but not like they're making progress? A: Because to-do lists keep growing without end, and without a measurable goal attached to them there's no felt sense of finishing or moving forward. Q: What's the difference between an employee mindset and a business owner mindset? A: An employee is directed, performance managed, and has their progress tracked for them, while a business owner has to prioritise, track, and hold themselves accountable with no one else doing it. Q: Why is tracking KPIs important in a private practice? A: Without tracking, you don't know what's working and what isn't, so you can't tell whether to keep posting on social media, change your approach, or focus your energy somewhere else entirely. Q: What should the business actually be doing for you? A: Brooklyn sees the business as a vehicle to the life you want, whether that's more time, more money, more freedom, or financial security, not the end goal in itself.

Taking action towards your goals beats the intentions of having them, almost every time. I have been guilty of staying in the planning stage for far too long without ever taking action towards my goals. In this season I am focused on taking aligned actions and really seeing progress in multiple areas of my life. Towards this end I utilized ChatGPT and a prompt (The Devil Couldn't Reach Me) I saw in a TikTok video. I loved the idea so much I saved it and sent it to 3 friends encouraging them to try out this prompt for themselves. The Devil Couldn't Reach Me Game;We're going to play "the devil couldn't reach me" I'll write "the devil couldn't reach me" and you'll respond "he already did" To which I will then I'll ask "how?" and you'll respond brutal and honestly based off of our previous conversations and all of the inputs you currently have pertaining to me. I encourage you to try it out as the response may surprise you. Input this is ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, or whatever LLM AI you use.Don't forget to take action towards your goals today, one step forward is called progress and action beats intention almost every time.Let's connect!

Maybe something broke. Maybe you're carrying more than you expected. Or maybe you're simply tired of trying to become the person you know God is calling you to be. As we wrap up our Transformed series, Jon takes us to Galatians 6 and reminds us that growth isn't always a straight line. There are gaps—between where we are and where we want to be, between our intentions and our actions, and between wanting to keep going and feeling worn out. But here's the good news: God's grace meets us in the gap.

What does it actually mean to fish without bait? In Episode 529 of Fishing Without Bait, behavioral health therapist Jim Ellermeyer sits down with Producer Mike for a return to the fundamental ideas that have shaped the podcast through more than 500 episodes. At the center of the conversation is a simple relationship between expectations and serenity: “The greater your expectations, the lower your serenity. The lower your expectations, the greater your serenity.” Jim and Mike explore the difference between setting rigid expectations and setting intentions. An expectation can turn life into a pass/fail exercise where anything short of a particular outcome feels like failure. An intention gives us direction while allowing us to remain present, curious, and responsive to what actually happens. That leads to another question Mike asks himself: “What am I working so hard to get to?” Jim's answer is equally simple: “There is no there.” The conversation expands into emotional honesty and the ways people avoid uncomfortable truths. Jim challenges the automatic response of telling everyone we're “good” when we aren't—including situations where honesty with doctors, loved ones, recovery peers, or ourselves could make a meaningful difference. They also discuss the 12-step idea that “it's our secrets that keep us sick,” the discomfort involved in confronting fears and resentments, and the tendency to keep “kicking the emotional can down the road” instead of dealing with what is immediately in front of us. Mindfulness, as Jim and Mike describe it, isn't escaping daily life or spending hours in meditation. It is practical: Paying attention on purpose. It's pausing before reacting. Questioning assumptions. Making choices based on facts instead of beliefs. Recognizing how our words and actions affect others. And allowing our words to pass through three important gates: Is it true? Is it kind? Is it necessary? The episode closes by returning to impermanence and non-attachment. Everything and everyone in our lives is shared with us temporarily. Rather than making life meaningless, that understanding can make the present more valuable. We don't live by years, months, weeks, days, or hours. We live by moments. Make this one count. Continue the Journey Subscribe to Fishing Without Bait on your favorite podcast player.

TempoTip: Stop Trusting Your IntentionsGood intentions sound impressive, but they don't automatically produce good results.In this episode of TempoTip Tuesday, Chris Thomas challenges the gap between what we intend to do and what we repeatedly choose to do. Drawing from behavioral science, the wisdom of Will Durant, and James 1:22, this episode examines why goals without systems often become nothing more than well-organized wishes.You'll discover why specific behaviors outperform vague intentions, how repetition shapes identity, and why motivation was never designed to carry the entire weight of your personal development.Because reading the book isn't the same as applying it. Buying the workout clothes isn't the same as working out. And owning six Bibles doesn't automatically make you spiritually mature.The question isn't simply, "What do you want?"The better question is:"What are you willing to repeat?"It's time to stop depending on intention and start developing the systems, habits, and disciplines capable of producing the person you're trying to become.Your future doesn't care about your intentions. Your future responds to your repetitions.Own your Tempo.Move with Purpose.Build with Power.

What is it Like to be Led by You? Summary:  Do you know what it’s like to be led by you? Good intentions do not always translate into positive leadership impact. Ciarán Casey joins The Leadership Habit Podcast to explore why leadership is relational, how leaders can become more aware of the experience they create, and the six elements that help leaders get back “in tune.” Most leaders have good intentions. They want their teams to feel trusted, supported, empowered, and valued.  But good intentions do not always create a good experience. You might give someone more autonomy because you trust them, only for them to walk away feeling abandoned. You might step in to help because you want to make their job easier, while they interpret your help as a sign that you do not trust them. You might send an email late at night simply to clear your inbox, while your team assumes they are expected to be available after hours. That gap between what a leader intends and what others actually experience is at the heart of this episode of The Leadership Habit Podcast. Host Jenn DeWall sits down with leadership practitioner, coach, and author Ciarán Casey to explore why leadership impact matters more than good intentions and how leaders can become more conscious of what it is actually like to be led by them. Meet Ciarán Casey, Leadership Coach and Author Ciarán Casey is a leadership practitioner and coach with more than three decades of senior leadership experience across sectors and international environments. His work focuses on organizational transformation, culture, high-performing teams, and complex human dynamics. More recently, Ciarán has focused on leadership development, working with individuals, leadership teams, senior civil servants, and executive teams to strengthen trust and collaboration. His book, Leadership in Tune, grew out of a question he kept encountering throughout his career: Why do some highly capable, intelligent, confident leaders struggle to connect with the people around them, while others seem to create environments where people naturally flourish? For Ciarán, part of the answer lies in the difference between leadership intent and leadership impact. Your Intentions Are Only Half the Story Leaders rarely set out to frustrate, disengage, or demotivate their teams. The problem is that employees cannot experience a leader's intentions. They experience their behaviors and interactions. As Ciarán explains: “The intention isn’t the problem. What we need to focus on is the experience.” That distinction can be uncomfortable, especially when we know our intentions were good. But it also gives leaders a more useful way to evaluate their effectiveness. Instead of asking, “What was I trying to do?” effective leaders can ask, “How might that have been experienced?” That shift matters because leadership behaviors carry more weight than we may realize. Ciarán points out that leaders are constantly being observed. A delayed response can be interpreted as a lack of interest. Silence can make people wonder if something is wrong. A rushed conversation can leave someone feeling like their time or contribution does not matter. As he puts it, a leader's impact is amplified. Becoming more aware of that leadership impact is not about overanalyzing every interaction. It is about recognizing that the meaning we intend to communicate and the meaning someone receives are not always the same. Leadership Does Not Happen in Isolation One of the central ideas in Ciarán's work is that leadership is relational. We often think of leadership as something an individual possesses. We describe someone as confident, charismatic, decisive, or a strong communicator and conclude that those characteristics make them a good leader. Ciarán challenges that idea. He argues that leadership emerges in the space between people. A leader can offer direction, guidance, or support, but leadership only takes shape when another person is willing to engage with and follow that direction. “Leadership is a relational practice that doesn’t reside within an individual, but emerges between people.” That changes the way we think about leadership development. Instead of focusing exclusively on the leader’s characteristics, we can pay more attention to the quality of their interactions. Are people willing to speak openly? Do they feel trusted? Do they feel heard? Does the leader create the conditions for people to contribute? Those everyday interactions are where leadership impact becomes real. The Six Strings of Leadership In Leadership in Tune, Ciarán introduces his Conscious Relational Impact Model, built around six elements of leadership. As a guitarist, he compares these elements to the guitar’s six strings. A guitar does not need every string to be completely wrong to sound off. One string that is out of tune can change the sound of the entire instrument. Leadership can work the same way. The six strings are organized across three stages: The Connected Self: Authenticity and Emotional Intelligence Effective leadership starts with understanding yourself. That means knowing your values and how they influence your behavior while also having the emotional intelligence to understand and regulate the impact you have on others. Authenticity without emotional intelligence can become an excuse to behave however you feel in the moment. Emotional intelligence without authenticity can feel performative. Leaders need both. The Bridge: Presence and Trust From there, leaders have to create the conditions for connection. Ciarán describes presence and trust as the two spans of a bridge between people. Trust determines whether it feels safe to cross. Presence determines what it feels like to cross. One of the simplest ways leaders can strengthen that bridge is by giving people their undivided attention. Phones, emails, meetings, and competing priorities make genuine presence difficult. But when a leader is distracted during a conversation, that distraction can communicate something they never intended: You are not important enough for my full attention. Shared Impact: Co-Creation and Influence Once leaders have built that connection, they can create shared impact through co-creation and influence. Ciarán describes co-creation as one of the most underused leadership skills. Leaders do not need to have every idea, solve every problem, or provide every answer themselves. Instead, they can involve capable people in designing solutions, processes, products, and outcomes. Influence also changes depending on the situation. Sometimes leaders need to be direct. Other times, they can draw ideas and creativity from the people around them. The key is that shared impact becomes much easier when trust and connection already exist. Which Leadership String Is Out of Tune? The goal of Ciarán's model is not leadership perfection. It is awareness. A leader may be authentic and emotionally intelligent but struggle to be fully present. Another may care deeply about their team but fail to build trust. Someone else may build strong relationships but rarely give others enough opportunity to co-create solutions. When something is not landing the way you intended, Ciarán's six strings offer a framework for asking why. “We’re not going for perfection here. We’re just going for improvement.” That can start with small moments of reflection. Think about a recent conversation that did not go as planned. A piece of feedback someone did not respond to well. Or, a meeting where the energy suddenly changed. Maybe a team member who has started pulling back. Rather than immediately focusing on what is wrong with the other person, consider the interaction itself. What might they have experienced? Which leadership string may have been out of tune? What could you adjust the next time? What Is It Like to Be Led by You? Toward the end of the conversation, Ciarán offers a question that captures the central idea of the episode: “What’s it like to be on the receiving end of me?” It is a very different question from “Am I a good leader?” Being a strong leader is an evaluation we can make about ourselves. Understanding how people feel and what it is like to be led by us requires considering someone else's experience. That is where leadership impacts lives. You will not always get it right. Your intentions and someone else's experience will not always align. But becoming curious about that gap can help you build stronger relationships, strengthen trust, and create an environment where people are more willing to contribute their best over the long term.

Air Date - 19 August 2026What happens to your brain when you practice magic? My guest this week on Destination Unlimited, Dr. Siddharth Ramakrishnan, PhD, reveals how your mind is wired for intentions, spells, and dreams. Using straightforward language and full-color brain maps, he translates the complex science behind the brain's circuitry and reveals how practicing magic alters these circuits—literally rewiring the brain. In his new book, The Neuroscience of Magic: How Your Brain Is Wired for Intentions, Spells, and Dreams, readers discover how their minds are inherently built for magical thinking, and how that wiring can be intentionally harnessed. Through dozens of practical exercises, readers learn to amplify the power of their words, intentions, and beliefs to manifest results. Dr. Ramakrishnan is a neuroscientist, artist, and educator. He chairs the Neuroscience Department at the University of Puget Sound and is a recipient of the National Science Foundation CAREER award. He is also the author of The Neuroscience of Tarot and creator of the Neuro Tarot deck.His website is https://www.brainmystic.com/, and he joins me this week to share his new book and amazing work.#SiddharthRamakrishnan #VictorFuhrman #DestinationUnlimitedConnect with Victor Fuhrman at https://victorthevoice.com/Visit the Destination Unlimited Show Page https://omtimes.com/iom/shows/destination-unlimited/Subscribe to our Newsletter https://omtimes.com/subscribe-omtimes-magazine/Connect with OMTimes on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/Omtimes.Magazine/ and OMTimes Radio https://www.facebook.com/ConsciousRadiowebtv.OMTimes/Twitter: https://twitter.com/OmTimes/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/omtimes/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/2798417/Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/omtimes/

"Pillars of Thought" is a Dharma talk offered at Two Hands Sangha on the topic of Intentions, and of moving from stagnant thoughts (Pillars of thought) to actions which have an arc or a lean toward action. How many things in your life have you been meaning to do? Sometimes what we think is an intention may actually just be a pillar of thought. It may be important, but it's standing perfectly still. Genuine intentions lean toward action.https://bio.reverendgeorgebeecher.com

The Sinaloa Cartel became one of the most powerful and recognizable criminal organizations in the world, with El Chapo emerging as its most infamous public face. But the reality behind Sinaloa was far more complicated than the idea of one cartel controlled by one kingpin.Bubba and Pete break down how the Sinaloa network actually operated, the multiple factions and powerful figures working behind the scenes, and why some of the men involved may have wielded even more influence than El Chapo. They also trace the evolution of the drug trade from the Colombian cartels of the 1980s through the rise of Mexican trafficking networks, examining how enforcement efforts, changing routes, and an expanding U.S. market helped reshape the modern narcotics business.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The transformation begins the moment we intentionally become present together.You'll discover how your presence can become one of the greatest gifts you offer another person—and how every interaction can become an opportunity to express love, compassion, connection, and abundance.Topics CoveredNote: Add final timestamps from the edited episode for YouTube Chapters.Why more information isn't solving our hunger for connectionWhat neuroscience reveals about caring relationships and healingACE vs. HOPE: Why adversity doesn't have to determine your futureHow oxytocin, safety, belonging, and connection affect the nervous systemWhat co-regulation teaches us about the energy we bring into a roomWhy technology connects information—but people connect heartsThe question that can transform your relationship with yourselfHow The Abundance Resonance became part of The Abundance JourneyWhy Elaine begins every episode with breath, Intention, and 78 seconds of silenceHow The Abundance Resonance reflects the Five Powers of AbundanceWhy who you choose to BE matters more than what you choose to sayHow one conscious interaction can ripple through families, communities, and consciousnessKey Takeaways — Skimmable Wins

While many leaders want to lead with empathy, they often fail to translate that desire into actionable decisions. Today, Maria discusses the distinction between intention and decision and highlights the importance of making–and committing–to those decisions that lead to tangible changes. She also emphasizes the urgency of making the most of the opportunities we have today, not waiting for what might change in the future. Finally, Maria challenges listeners to use their agency to be empathetic leaders and to act now, regardless of external circumstances.

Some of the thoughts running through your mind were never yours to begin with, and this is becoming more and more clear through experiences of telepathy - of which I have had some mind-blowing experiences recently that I will share in this live.  In this episode of Soul Elevation, I bring together two of the most fascinating frontiers of consciousness: heightened telepathy experiences and our continuous interaction with the astral realm. These topics not separate. When our psychic senses open, we start picking up on subtle frequencies we don't always realize originate outside of us. And once you can recognize that, a vital question rises: whose voice and influence are you actually listening to? Let's explore how the mind becomes a receiver to the astral plane, how lower energy forces and entities can benefit from us mindlessly accepting ideas that serve them but not us, and how to tell the difference between your own intuition and an energy that's borrowed, implanted, or secretly influencing you. Discern the source of your impressions, protect your energy, and interact with the astral realm from a place of clarity and power.

For years, the Gilgo Beach murders remained one of the country's most haunting unsolved cases. Then a trail of burner phones, witness accounts, vehicle records and DNA recovered from a discarded pizza crust led investigators to Rex Heuermann.Bubba and Pete examine the evidence that connected a seemingly ordinary Long Island architect to the investigation, including the green Chevy Avalanche, the digital forensic search of his home and the deleted file authorities described as a “murder matrix.” They also explore the investigative breakthroughs and overlooked details that finally brought the case into focus.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Long before he became known as the Golden State Killer, Joseph James DeAngelo terrorized California communities as the Visalia Ransacker and the East Area Rapist. His crimes escalated over time, yet his knowledge of law-enforcement procedures helped him avoid identification for decades.Bubba and Pete trace DeAngelo's progression from calculated burglaries to increasingly violent attacks, his disturbing habit of stealing sentimental possessions and the clues suggesting the offender may have been one of law enforcement's own. The episode also examines the forensic and genetic-genealogy breakthrough that finally exposed the man behind multiple names and years of terror.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Israel Keyes did not follow the patterns investigators normally use to connect crimes. He traveled across the country, selected victims far from home and buried prepared “kill kits” years before he intended to use them. What appeared random was actually a deliberate strategy designed to prevent authorities from seeing the larger picture.Bubba and Pete break down Keyes' methodical planning, the abduction of Samantha Koenig and the mistakes that finally placed investigators on his trail. They also examine his unsettling FBI interrogations, the crimes he admitted to and the unanswered questions surrounding a killer who may never have revealed the full extent of what he had done.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Have you ever had one of those moments where you just knew something? Or maybe you've noticed repeating numbers, meaningful coincidences, or signs that seemed too perfect to ignore.What if those moments aren't random? This week, we're joined by intuitive teacher, healer, and meditation guide Mark Mezadourian, whose work has helped thousands of people reconnect with their intuition, their spiritual guides, and the unconditional love that's always available to us.After a series of life-changing experiences and a profound encounter that led him to call on Archangel Michael, Mark's life took an unexpected turn.

It's about slowing down, creating space, and remembering what we've always had within us.In this conversation, we explore:What angels and spirit guides really are—and why they're available to everyone, regardless of religious backgroundHow Mark's personal journey led him from skepticism to a life devoted to spiritual guidanceThe surprising ways intuition speaks through seeing, hearing, knowing, and feelingWhy asking for help from the spiritual world is more powerful than most of us realizeHow to begin building your own relationship with angels and guides in simple, everyday waysThe role of free will and why guidance is always an invitation—not a predictionWhy guided meditation can help regulate your nervous system, quiet the mind, and make it easier to hear your own inner wisdomHow artists, ancestors, loved ones, and inspiring historical figures can also serve as spiritual guidesPractical ways to recognize signs, synchronicities, and the loving support that's already surrounding youWhether you're completely new to angels or you've been exploring spirituality for years, this conversation is an invitation to look at guidance through a new lens—one that's expansive, empowering, and deeply hopeful.Because perhaps the biggest takeaway is this: you were never meant to navigate life alone.MORE FROM MARK MEZADOURIANLearn more about Mark, book a private session, explore his guided meditations, workshops, and upcoming live events at markmezadourian.com.Experience Mark's meditations and events on Insight TimerCheck out Mark on YouTubeFollow Mark on Instagram: @markmezadourian Visit seekingcentercommunity.com for more with Robyn + Karen and many of the guides on Seeking Center: The Podcast.

Episode 4088: Stephen Warley argues that replacing goals with intentions can reduce anxiety and create more lasting personal change by shifting the focus from chasing temporary outcomes to building habits that support how you want to feel every day. Through personal stories and practical examples, he shows why intentions encourage curiosity, flexibility, and fulfillment while helping you stay motivated regardless of the final result. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://lifeskillsthatmatter.com/stop-making-goals-set-intentions/ Quotes to ponder: "Goals are hits of sugar that make you feel a temporary high. Intentions are wholesome meals that make you feel satisfied all the time." "Goals feel like an obligation. Intentions feel like an invitation to explore." "Chasing goals makes you feel like you are never enough. Intentions empower you to be yourself."
