Exodus 9: 13 - 17, 9: 34 - 10: 2
McKay explores a collection of life-altering epiphanies by asking the powerful question, “What has been one of the most helpful thoughts or epiphanies that you have had that has made you more free or empowered to act?” He reveals how simple yet profound shifts in thinking can redefine our reality, from the principle that “what you focus on expands” to the freedom that comes from choosing our thoughts.Using the incredible story of Jim Carrey's focused visualization, McKay illustrates how our focus acts like a spotlight, magnifying whatever it shines on. He also introduces the powerful management metaphor of “the monkey on your back,” teaching that we can empower others and protect our own priorities by refusing to take on problems that are not ours to solve. Citing profound near-death experiences and the work of thinkers like Mel Robbins, he demonstrates that we always have the agency to choose our thoughts and actions, regardless of our feelings or circumstances. Ultimately, this episode is a guide to identifying and embracing the ideas that empower us to live with more intention, joy, and resilience, serving as a powerful reminder that our greatest freedom lies in our ability to choose our perspective.Main Themes:Our thoughts and energy have a way of magnifying what we focus on, whether it is problems or solutions.We can empower others and avoid burnout by not adopting their problems or responsibilities (“monkeys”) as our own.True and lasting joy is often found by savoring the small, simple moments in life rather than chasing grand experiences.The resilience to overcome challenges comes not from perfection, but from the simple commitment to “just try” again and again.We have complete agency over our thoughts; we can choose grace, optimism, and action regardless of external circumstances or internal feelings.Understanding that our journey continues after this life provides a powerful incentive to invest in becoming our best selves now.Top 10 Quotes:“What you focus on expands.”“What I went through made me who I am. What I am going through will make me what I will be. What I choose to put my focus toward will now create that person.”“We do not remember the years that come and go in our life, but we do remember the moments.”“Successful people have very clear goals. They know who they are and what they want. They write them down and make plans for their accomplishment.”“I do not have to adopt other people's problems as my own to help them.”“I get to choose what I think about.”“The test is not whether you reach your goals in one burst of energy, but the test is to see if you will stay in the game and just try.”“There is always a way, even when it feels like there is not.”Show Links:Open Your Eyes with McKay Christensen

Let us imagine that one of the most powerful ways to create space and be open to an incoming wave of evolutionary progress — the future — is to consciously heal and absolve the past, with all of its trauma and scar tissue. Not just our personal past, but imagining in ourselves the flow of history through the current epoch. It's not just possible, but some would say a vital process in a time of great change and new possibility. In this conversation, Aviv Shahar and Portals friend Jeff Vander Clute take a deep look into the epoch's seven stages and the corresponding potencies of the energy spectrum, Red through Violet. It's a way of attuning to the flow and energetic nature of history, and to what Aviv and Jeff believe is a step-function leap underway to a new wave of evolution.Jeff is a consultant and author of three recent books, including Beyond Every Teaching, a collection of transformative spiritual transmissions.In today's exploration, we focus on the main stories or perspectives of the epoch, especially the very real human capacity to revisit, rewrite and clean in ourselves painful and traumatic aspects of history. It's a process of energetic dialysis powered by the spectrum frequency of Yellow, which we can also trace in the epoch to the emergence of the axial religions.Other amazing insights from Aviv and Jeff's conversation include:Universal culture: For the first time, there is a truly global civilization, with shared communication and commerce platforms — a core premise in the story of the shift from planetary to universal culture and civilization.Power of Yellow: Yellow dialysis enables self-forgiveness and transformation — a life reboot. The Yellow frequency promotes inner rewiring and deeper integration.Great alchemy: As we transcend and reach the source, the point where it all comes together, great alchemy is possible: polarities and multiplicities are seen in their root nature as unified; a new human species can emerge.Liberating essence: The axial religions that emerged around an energetic source became in some paths an institutional bureaucracy. Yellow dialysis liberates the essence into new currency and updating.Universal economy: The universe loves economy; if knowledge was codified earlier in the epoch, why waste it? Distill its essence, release what is no longer needed, and further the evolutionary story.New sense organs: Activating Yellow brings online new human sense organs and communication apparatus; it encourages shared values and meaning, and connects with higher sources of inspiration.Beyond the head: The Enlightenment and scientific revolution are based on the head or intellect-driven knowledge. We can experience knowledge differently through the vibrant, invisible blessing realms.Living history: The feelings and traditions of ancient cultures are alive in energetic form. We can attune to those sentiments and passions to sense and wonder about the grandeur of their appearance.This conversation is part of the continuing Portals discovery into what is emerging on the frontiers of human experience in this time of profound change. Information about upcoming special events can be found on the Events page. Also visit and subscribe to our YouTube channel. TWEETABLE QUOTES “And so we build into this the recognition that the epoch is not a concept, it's not a mental structure, rather it is a living process. It's arising inside us. It's arising in between us. It arises all around us, and it is something we can live into, inside and in between us, in our conversations and discoveries, which is the premise to come together in small pods or in a larger network, to metabolize, to ease, to decode these ideas as they unfold.” (Aviv)“I've had an interesting esoteric experience in which I actually changed the past and suddenly the map of where I was going in life changed, instantaneously. It's as if the past is actually quite malleable. So when we're rewriting the past here, I would say that it's powerful beyond the words that we use to tell these stories, there's something going on energetically, and archetypally, within the collective.” (Jeff) RESOURCES MENTIONED Portals of Perception WebsiteAviv's LinkedIn Aviv's TwitterAviv's WebsiteThe Five Stories of the Epoch

Send us a textThe holidays aren't the source of your stress—you are. Triggering? Maybe. Liberating? Absolutely.In this episode of the Cosmic Valkyrie Podcast, we're continuing the No More Holiday Hustle Series with a deep dive into why your calendar, to-do list, and family obligations aren't actually the problem—and how subconscious identities and inherited beliefs are the real culprits.Most women think the stress comes from “doing too much,” but the truth is, the spiral begins in your subconscious programming. If you believe you're always behind, you'll live in urgency and panic. If you believe you're not enough, you'll overdeliver to the point of burnout. If you believe productivity equals worth, you'll never allow yourself to rest.The result? Stress eating, emotional shopping, arguments with family, blown budgets, migraines, and resentment that lasts long after the season ends.But here's the radical shift: stress doesn't come from what you're doing—it comes from who you believe you are while you're doing it.That's where alignment, momentum, and subconscious reprogramming come in. This episode shows you how to stop hustling, stop scrambling, and start creating the holidays you actually want.Why holiday stress starts in your belief system, not your schedule.The subconscious identities (People-Pleaser, Martyr, Overachiever, Fixer) that hijack your peace.Why willpower always fails—and how subconscious reprogramming creates lasting change.The hidden financial, emotional, and energetic costs of “making it magical.”How Quantum Physics and Induction Hypnosis help shift your subconscious lens.What it means to embody the Shapeshifter identity this season.Practical shifts you can start today to create alignment, presence, and flow.This isn't about canceling Christmas or lowering your standards—it's about reclaiming your presence, your joy, and your energy so you don't collapse into January burned out and resentful.Want to go deeper? Join the No More Holiday Hustle Workshop → 3 powerful trainings (under 20 minutes each) designed to rewire your subconscious and reclaim calm this holiday season.

Invisible Distortions: Why We Misunderstand Each Other (and How to Stop) Have you ever walked away from a conversation thinking, “How did that go so wrong?” You were clear. They were clear. And yet somehow, you both walked away feeling misunderstood, hurt, or even resentful. Erin and Evan call these hidden forces “distortions.” They're like funhouse mirrors in our relationships—subtle patterns, beliefs, or unspoken feelings that bend what we say and hear. Left unchecked, distortions quietly erode connection, fuel resentment, and create conflict that seems impossible to solve. In this episode of Richer Soul, we explore how to see distortions, name them, and clear them—so that relationships (at home, in business, and even with money) flow with more peace and ease.
What happens when we face the hard reality of childhood obesity with solutions-focused honesty, grace, and hope? In this episode, Nutritional Therapy and Wellness Podcast host, Jamie Belz, jumps into the passenger seat and releases the reins as a guest on The Liberty Wellness Podcast, hosted by Rebecca Stewart. Rebecca is a National Board-Certified Nutritional Therapy Practitioner (NTP), a homeschool mama of two, and the founder of Liberty Wellness & Co.—a virtual practice supporting clients through complex chronic illnesses like Lyme disease, Hashimoto's, and autoimmune conditions. She's also the creator of the Liberty Wellness Homeschool High School Health Curriculum, giving families a solid foundation for health education at home. Her heart for parents, children, and future generations shines through every word. After listening to Episode 35 of the Nutritional Therapy and Wellness Podcast, Rebecca invited Jamie to be a guest on her platform for a real conversation to help parents and kids understand: The biology behind childhood obesity - why it's not just “baby fat” and how early patterns set lifelong health trajectories. Parental guilt, shame, and fear—how to forgive ourselves and look forward with positivity as we help heal our families. The impact of sugar, dopamine hits, screen time, and nutrient-deficient foods on kids' developing bodies. Why bio-individuality matters: every child is unique, and healing isn't one-size-fits-all. Generational cycles of health decline, including the eye-opening research of Dr. Francis Pottenger and the warnings of Dr. Weston A. Price nearly a century ago. How simple, doable changes—nutrient-dense meals, family modeling, stress reduction, and connection—can rewrite the story for our kids and grandkids. The powerful reminder that it's never too late to shift course, heal, and create meaningful change, redemption, and hope for healthier generations.

In his 2023 book The Entanglement, UC Berkeley philosopher Alva Noë argues that human nature is not a fixed phenomenon, and that art acts as a kind of “strange tool” that actively changes us. “Life and art are entangled,” says Noë, who spoke about his research at a Berkeley event in June 2023. “To say that life and art are entangled is to say not only that we make art out of life, all the habits and systems and meanings and certainties, but that art then works these raw materials over — art works us over, art makes us new. Art makes us.”In this Berkeley Talks episode, Noë discusses how humans are in a constant state of becoming, and that art works to unveil us to ourselves in ways that empirical inquiry common in scientific fields cannot. By removing an object, like a photo, from its normal setting, he says, it allows us to reflect on what we normally take for granted about the object and presents an opportunity to make new meaning from it. “We are makers,” he continues. “We are put together, literally made up, by the habits and skills of making that constitute us. So by making, and thus exposing what our lives as makers take for granted, art puts us on display … in ways that hold out the opportunity of changing us, of liberating us. Liberating us precisely from the bonds of habit which our activities consist in.”Noë's lecture was part of the 2023 Berkeley Art, Law and Finance Symposium, presented by the Berkeley Center for Law and Business.

Widespread crimes are severely affecting the lives of the people. The Democrats, who have a history of supporting "Defund the Police" efforts, are not doing what is necessary to combat crimes and to ensure public safety, especially in the Windy City. But there is one leader, President Donald J. Trump, who has the willingness to take action to liberate Chicago by catching criminals.

So many women freeze up when it comes to using their voice in the bedroom. You want to say something… but the words feel clunky, the mood feels fragile, and the moment passes.In this week's episode of Sacred Sex for Real Women, I'm joined by Luna Agneya, Relationship Coach and Tantrika, to explore the art of erotic talk — and how it's different from the performative “dirty talk” you might see in porn.You'll learn:Why erotic talk is more about embodiment than performanceHow structure can actually make things sexier and saferSimple tools to amplify connection and pleasure right awayWhy bringing your erotic voice into sex builds confidence in every area of lifeThis is a real, grounded conversation for women who want more than quick fixes or clichés — it's about reclaiming your authentic voice, deepening intimacy, and turning communication into one of the hottest tools for long-term love.
I'm so in love with fall. Let's FALL in love with ourselves this autumn (I know that was so corny). This episode, I want us to talk about embracing ourselves so we can escape the people pleasing trap. Those of us with people pleaser personalities may forgo our own wants and needs in order to accomodate others. We're looking for validation, for acceptance, for that stamp of approval. But when you love yourself, like REALLY love yourself, that pressure to be liked can start to fade.–Please rate, review, and share the show with your friends!Follow the show on Instagram @SituationshitPodFollow me @SoireesInTherapyIf you want to work with me, visit SoireesInTherapy.com/Book-Now to book a free 15 minute consultation.Tired of situationships?

A new-old way of living in place is emerging through a variety of projects and pathways where people are deepening their relationship to land and place-making. Join Host Cassandra Lynn Ferrera with Rako Fabionar as they share about how they are personally and professionally engaging in place-based liberation work--and how the kinds of wayfinding and inhabited learning they are exploring to grow and deepen kinship might be of service to other place-based and bioregional projects. Rako Fabionar cultivates innovative learning environments for folks to experience deeper connection, insight, and well-being. Rako comes from a family of educators, counselors, organizers, and healers and is connected to the Philippines' Boholano and Eskaya indigenous people. Identified as “one who carries medicine” by elders and spirits of three different lineage traditions, Rako has participated in many healings, apprenticeships, trainings, and formal initiation ceremonies over the last two decades. Often sought out as a land listener, he also supports people during transition, with more than 20 years of experience designing a wide range of transformative initiatives for universities, community-based organizations, businesses, and change networks. Cassandra Lynn Ferrera is a steward of The Center for Ethical Land Transition and Rako is a steward of the Innovative Learning and Living Institute, both programs of Commonweal that are in service of regenerative and equitable futures. Rako and Cassandra are also both residents and co-stewards of Landwell, a 22-acre wayfinding place for regenerative living, cultural innovation, and community resilience. *** The New School is Commonweal's learning community and podcast — we offer conversations, workshops, and other events in areas that Commonweal champions: finding meaning, growing health and resilience, advocating for justice, and stewarding the natural world.

On psychoanalysis, which we haven't talked about much on this show. Dr. Orna Guralnik is a psychoanalyst and writer. Her writing centers on the intersection of psychoanalysis, dissociation, and cultural studies. She has completed the filming of several seasons of the docu-series Couples Therapy. In this episode we talk about: The relationship between happiness and truth How to cultivate love from within Practices to support us in being more open-minded (to avoid what she calls a “splitting” mindset) Trans-generational history, and how it impacts our personal lives and relationships (in other words, how the ghosts of your ancestors operate in you now) One single, powerful question to ask yourself when you get annoyed The overlap between Buddhism and psychoanalysis Related Episodes: Why Your Brain Turns The Miraculous Into The Mundane—And How To Fix It | Maria Popova George Saunders on: “Holy Befuddlement” and How to Be Less of a “Turd” The Profound Upside of Self-Diminishment | George Saunders Sign up for Dan's newsletter here Follow Dan on social: Instagram, TikTok Ten Percent Happier online bookstore Subscribe to our YouTube Channel Our favorite playlists on: Anxiety, Sleep, Relationships, Most Popular Episodes
