In this episode, Swami Revatikaanta sits down with Sarvamohini Dasi (Kristina Margolin) to discuss the role of numerology and astrology in understanding our nature and purpose.In this personal discussion, Sarvamohini Dasi opens up about her realization that while these ancient sciences can explain the patterns of our lives, they cannot fully satisfy the heart's ultimate desire for divine love.

Creating a Simpler Life: Reconnecting With Yourself Through Courage, Culture & PurposeIn this episode, we explore how living simply, acting courageously, and reconnecting with our true selves can transform everything — with Life Purpose & Fulfillment Coach, Silvia Resnik.Rediscovering Yourself by Creating a Simpler LifeSo many women appear to “have it all,” yet feel deeply disconnected from themselves. Silvia Resnik, founder of Simple Life Journey, understands this personally. In our conversation, she shares how a life-changing visit to Tanzania opened her heart to a new way of living — one based on authenticity, community, and simplicity.Silvia explains that modern women often lose themselves under layers of responsibility: work, home, family, expectations, and the pressure to be everything to everyone. Her message is clear: don't wait for the right moment — the “if” — to live the life you crave. Do it now.What We Can Learn From the MaasaiDuring her time in Tanzania, Silvia discovered ancient Maasai wisdom that shifted her entire worldview. Far removed from materialism and digital overload, the Maasai live with profound clarity: connection matters more than possessions, community matters more than competition, and joy is found in presence, not achievement.Silvia now integrates these lessons into both her coaching and the immersive trips she leads to Maasai bomas. Women who travel with her experience life stripped back to what truly matters — and often rediscover pieces of themselves they didn't even know were missing.The Hidden Struggles Women FaceThroughout the episode, Silvia identifies the core challenges women face today: Self-doubt and loss of identity Difficulty setting boundaries Lack of meaningful support networks Disconnection from themselves, others, and their purpose Cultural and societal pressures — including harmful practices like FGM Her solutions are grounded in kindness and courage: reflect, reconnect, set boundaries, celebrate soft skills, seek community, and learn from cultures that value humanity over busyness.EmpowerHER: Fighting FGM and Supporting Maasai GirlsOne of the most powerful parts of our conversation is Silvia's work as co-founder of EmpowerHER, a grassroots initiative supporting Maasai women and girls. The project focuses on: health education culturally respectful initiatives to end FGM entrepreneurship for women creating safer, empowered futures Her message is heartfelt: If even one person's life changes for the better because of what we do, then it all has meaning.Three Takeaways You'll Love Reconnect With Yourself – Life isn't about more achievement; it's about remembering who you are and what brings joy. Connection Creates Strength – Empowerment grows when women support, mentor, and uplift one another. Act From Love & Purpose – Your actions, even the small ones, can change lives — your own and others'.

Restlessness, dissatisfaction, the feeling that you're somehow in the wrong life... what is life telling you? Most people spend their entire lives asking the wrong question: 'What should I do?' The soul sees things differently. Until you shift your perspective, you are going to keep coming up against the same problems when it comes to your purpose. There's a reason spiritual teachers call it the 'dark night of the soul', and it almost always traces back to the same root cause. Today we're going to talk about what that is, and what to do about it." In this LIVE episode of Soul Elevation with Kara Goodwin, we explore one of the most powerful and fundamental questions you can ask: Does everyone have a life purpose? And what actually happens when you don't live yours? We'll dive into: ✨ Does every soul arrive with a unique life purpose? ✨ How to know if you're already living your purpose ✨ What happens energetically, emotionally, and spiritually when you resist your calling ✨ Whether living your purpose is a requirement, and what the cost of ignoring it might be ✨ How to begin finding your purpose if you feel completely lost Handprint analysis episode with Richard Unger: https://www.soulelevationpodcast.com/251-discovering-your-lifes-purpose-a-profoundly-accurate-system-richard-unger/ ─────────────────────────────

What if Angels confirmed that everything you've survived was preparing you for your true purpose? In this inspiring episode of Radio Medium, psychic medium Laura Lee connects with Ma from Michigan for a deeply affirming psychic reading filled with angelic presence, spiritual guidance, and powerful validation. From the very beginning, Spirit reveals Ma's high-vibration energy and acknowledges her extraordinary journey of overcoming abuse, generational alcoholism, and personal adversity. Through this intuitive reading, angels and Spirit guides recognize her work as a coach, author, and healer, while encouraging her to expand beyond one-on-one service to reach a larger audience. The message is clear: her experiences were never meant to break her—they were meant to prepare her to help others heal. This uplifting mediumship-inspired session offers profound insight for anyone experiencing a spiritual awakening, stepping into purpose-driven work, recovering from trauma, or seeking the courage to trust their calling.

S10 E3—The return of the R-word is about more than language. The words we choose both reflect and shape our moral imagination. When disability becomes an insult or a political weapon, it influences how we understand human worth, vulnerability, and belonging. In this conversation, Christina Cipriano, PhD, joins Amy Julia Becker to explore her research on political language and disability, including the return of the R-word. They discuss what these patterns reveal about the systems shaping care, education, and belonging, and they consider: how can we resist dehumanizing language and choose words that move us toward justice and joy?00:00 Introduction to Disability Discourse Matters06:53 Asset-Based vs. Deficit-Based Perspectives10:27 Personal Narratives and Language Choices19:49 The Rise, Fall, and Rise of the R Word23:42 Dehumanization in Political Rhetoric28:47 Historical Context of Disability Discourse33:00 Disability Language and Future Generations40:48 Reimagining Disability and the Good LifeMENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE:Disability Discourse MattersThe Education Collaboratory at Yale | Child Study CenterSpread the Word – Special OlympicsMontclair University: Use of the Slur [r-word] Triples on X After Elon Musk Shares the Word in a PostBe Unapologetically Impatient by Christina CiprianoEuphemism Treadmill article_SUBSCRIBE to Amy Julia's Substack: amyjuliabecker.substack.comWATCH this conversation on YouTube: Amy Julia Becker on YouTubeJOIN the conversation on Instagram: @amyjuliabeckerLISTEN to more episodes: amyjuliabecker.com/shows/_ABOUT OUR GUEST:Christina Cipriano, PhD, is currently an associate professor of applied developmental and educational psychology at the Yale Child Study Center in the Yale School of Medicine and Director of the Education Collaboratory.

What if a message from your past could completely change your future? In this emotionally powerful episode of Radio Medium Laura Lee, psychic medium Laura Lee connects with Roxanne and brings through a young spirit from her high school years — a deeply meaningful connection who passed too soon but never left her heart.Through undeniable validations — including shared memories, symbolic dried flowers, and birthday confirmations — Spirit delivers a clear message: love never fades, and guidance continues beyond physical life. This loved one steps forward with encouragement for Roxanne to reclaim her creative dreams, reminding her that it is never too late to begin again, create, and follow the path her soul has always desired. As Roxanne reflects on relocation, life transitions, and her pull toward filmmaking and creative expression, Spirit confirms she is in a full-circle moment of alignment. Opportunities are opening, timing is shifting, and the only missing piece is trust and courage. This episode is a powerful reminder for anyone feeling stuck between responsibility and purpose that Spirit often arrives just when we are ready to rise. (Best of Season 14)

Do you ever feel there might be more to your story than what's happened in just this lifetime? In this perspective-shifting episode, we go beyond the ordinary and delve into the topic of past lives. I sat down with past-life psychic and spiritual teacher Ainslie MacLeod, author of The Instruction and The Old Soul's Guidebook, to explore the deeper story of our souls, and where our fears, gifts, and purpose may truly come from. Ainslie shares how he works with his spirit guides, what actually happens during a past-life reading, and how we can begin to trust our own intuition on a deeper level. He even does a live reading on one of my own past lives — revealing patterns that felt incredibly accurate and, honestly, shocking — even for me! It gave me a whole new understanding of some of the themes I've experienced in my life. We dive into soul age and soul types, and how our soul's journey across lifetimes may be shaping our relationships, our fears, our sensitivity, and our drive to make a difference. Ainslie explains how past-life experiences can show up as self-worth struggles, perfectionism, people-pleasing, and emotional triggers — and how simply bringing awareness to these patterns can create profound shifts. This episode is a powerful reminder that we're often not starting from scratch… and that your soul may be guiding you toward something far greater than you realize. If you've ever felt different, deeply sensitive, or called to something more — this conversation is for you.

In this episode of Raising Serotonin, I'm diving into a mindset that I keep seeing all over social media lately: “it's not that deep.” And honestly? I don't agree.I talk about why I think this mindset can sometimes become a way for people to emotionally check out of their own lives, avoid vulnerability, avoid failure, or stay small when things feel hard. Because the truth is… your life is that deep. Your healing is that deep. Your goals, relationships, growth, purpose, and the way you spend your time all matter.I open up about discomfort, anxiety, grad school, growth, and what it actually means to put yourself out there even when you're scared.We talk about why meaningful change requires effort, why staying comfortable can keep us stuck, and why becoming the person you want to be is supposed to ask something of you.If you've been feeling afraid to take the next step, questioning your path, or minimizing your own dreams because someone else told you it “wasn't that serious,” this episode is your reminder that your one life matters, and you deserve to fully show up for it.

In this episode, Julie Ryan and Caroline Alan reveal how mineral depletion may be the hidden cause—and how restoring it can transform your energy, health, and spiritual clarity.Caroline breaks down why modern soil—and the food grown in it—has been stripped of essential minerals, leaving many people unknowingly depleted no matter how “healthy” they eat. She explains how plant-based fulvic and humic minerals work on a cellular level to fuel your body, support detoxification, and help restore balance in ways most traditional supplements can't. If you've been struggling with brain fog, fatigue, sleep issues, or unexplained symptoms, this conversation will connect the dots in a way that just makes sense.But it goes even deeper. Caroline shares a powerful spiritual experience that revealed how a depleted body can dim your energetic field—while a properly nourished one can hold the frequency needed for clarity, intuition, and divine connection. Julie validates this with a live intuitive scan, describing a remarkable energetic interaction that ties physical health directly to spiritual awareness. If you've been searching for answers that bridge science, health, and spirituality, this episode will change how you see your body—and what it truly needs to thrive.Guest Biography:Caroline Alan is a health educator and advocate for mineral replenishment who transitioned from the corporate world after facing her own physical, mental, and energetic health challenges. Refusing to accept that her symptoms were “normal,” she began a deep exploration into the role of minerals in human health, discovering the powerful impact of plant-based humic and fulvic substances in restoring balance to the body. Her research spans microbiology, cellular biology, and soil science, allowing her to translate complex concepts into practical guidance. Today, Caroline is dedicated to helping others understand mineral depletion and how targeted supplementation can support healing, vitality, and optimal well-being.Episode Chapters:(0:00:39) - Welcome and Introduction to Minerals(0:02:10) - Why We're All Mineral Deficient(0:09:38) - The Problem with Supplement Pills and Better Alternatives(0:19:30) - Caroline's Personal Health Crisis and Recovery(0:36:51) - Glyphosate, Fulvic, Humic, and Detoxification(0:41:15) - Minerals, Energy, and Spiritual Connection(0:52:08) - Life Purpose, Surrender, and The Mineral Reset Book➡️Subscribe to Ask Julie Ryan YouTube➡️Julie's Intuitive Trainings✏️Ask Julie a Question!
What is the next generation really thinking, feeling, and dreaming about? In this special episode of THE WELL Podcast, I sit down with my niece Reese, a 21-year-old navigating the exciting (and sometimes overwhelming) early years of adulthood. This conversation is one every mom, aunt, and grandma needs to hear. Reese opens up about her passion for family, her desire to build a meaningful future, and her journey toward becoming a videographer entrepreneur. She shares honestly about the pressure, uncertainty, and courage it takes to step into adulthood in today's world—while also holding onto her values and vision. This episode gives you a front-row seat into the heart and mind of the next generation—what they care about, what they struggle with, and what they truly need from us.
The goals we set often lead us away from the meaning we ultimately seek.Meaning in life isn't a concrete point we can route toward. That's why we need what Arthur Brooks calls “proxy goals” — and much better ones than we typically choose.Brooks, a professor at Harvard Business School and author of The Meaning of Your Life: Finding Purpose in an Age of Emptiness, says that meaning can't be pursued directly, but rather through proxy goals — markers that lead us to what we're really seeking. “The big, complex, meaning-filled things in life, you can't see them directly,” he says. “If you want to find meaning, you have to have proxy goals.” The problem is that many of us have chosen terrible proxies. “Money, power, pleasure, fame, prestige; those are really bad proxy goals for the meaning of life,” Brooks says. “You're never gonna find it.”In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Brooks returns to the show, and with host Matt Abrahams, he explores how we can move from searching for meaning to actually finding it. From understanding the three components of meaning to transcending the “me self,” Brooks offers practical guidance for those who strive and strive, yet still feel like something's missing.To listen to the extended Deep Thinks version of this episode, please visit FasterSmarter.io/premium.Episode Reference Links:Arthur BrooksArthur's Book: The Meaning of LifeArthur's Podcast: Office Hours179.
