What if the real work of leadership wasn't about climbing higher, but going deeper into the soul, the body, and the sacred responsibility of showing up fully alive? In this soul-stirring conversation on The Greatness Machine, Darius sits down with Nathanael Chawkin for a deep dive into the sacred masculine, conscious leadership, and the power of integration. From personal initiations through plant medicine to the spiritual responsibility of leading in the modern world, this episode explores what it means to live a wholehearted, embodied life. Nathanael shares insights from his work guiding men through transformational rites of passage, and challenges the performative narratives of power and success. They also reflect on the rise of conscious capitalism, the illusion of enlightenment, and the true crucibles of growth—like marriage, fatherhood, and leadership itself. In this episode, Darius and Nathanael will discuss: (00:00) Introduction and Background (02:57) The Journey of Fatherhood (05:30) Exploring Masculinity and Leadership (08:34) The Role of Plant Medicine in Personal Growth (11:29) Integration and Spiritual Development (14:11) Personal Experiences with Plant Medicine (24:57) Exploring Plant Medicines and Spiritual Experiences (30:13) The Shift from Materialism to Conscious Leadership (36:56) Conscious Capitalism and the Role of Guardianship (42:46) Integrating Spirituality and Material Life (50:23) The Pathways of Development in Leadership Nathanael Chawkin is a modern mystic, master coach, and martial arts instructor with over 15 years of experience guiding executives and leaders through transformational growth. He is the founder of Guardian Training, a men's work methodology that blends MMA, conflict resolution, and depth psychology to awaken the sacred masculine. In 2021, he launched Awakening Leadership, a plant medicine journey for conscious leaders, and in 2025, co-founded Temple of The Living Truth with his life partner Elizabeth—a priestess of the sacred feminine.

After the fall of Jericho, Achan defied God's command by secretly concealing forbidden treasure. His private sin led to public loss and the death of others. Contrast that with Rahab—her faith, risky and visible, led to life not just for herself but for her family. Both stories show that our choices can affect others and shape the legacies we leave behind. Like Rahab, someone must stand up as a curse-breaker. Jesus did this for us, providing a heritage we cannot earn but can receive. Listen and consider the kind of legacy you're passing on.Scriptures ReferencedJoshua 2:8-11, 5:13-15; Romans 8:28; 2 Timothy 2:23; Hebrews 11:31; James 2:25Key InsightsGod uses broken people.What you do doesn't just impact you.Rahab's faith saved her family and changed her legacy.Achan's act of disobedience had a profound impact on the entire community.God is not on your side, but He is for you.All families have brokenness, but someone can stand up to stop it.Jesus was our curse-breaker.You can't earn your place in God's plan, but you can receive it.If you belong to Jesus, you've been called to be conformed to the likeness of His Son.Prayer TargetsPlease join us in prayer for:A hunger for the Word.Tears for the sost.Testimonies to share.We would love it if you would consider joining us in person for one of our Sunday gatherings.Connect online: Download our appOur website: SpringhouseSmryna.comWhat we believeMinistries we supportFinancial accountabilitySpringhouse Theatre CompanyAdditional ResourcesGet sermons delivered automatically: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | Pocket Casts | Your Favorite Podcast App Subscribe on YouTubeGiving: Online tithes and offeringsJoin us online: LivestreamGathering TimesSundays, 9:00 AMSundays, 10:30 AMThursdays, 6:00 PMContact InfoSpringhouse Church14119 Old Nashville HighwaySmyrna TN 37167615-459-3421 About SpringhouseIf you're looking for a church in Smyrna, TN that is focused on Loving Big, Living Truth, and Healthy Family, we'd love to connect with you.

What if your faith journey isn't what you expected? When life doesn't go as planned, do you trust God or let frustration take over? Discover how faith can shift everything.— Life rarely unfolds the way we imagine. Many believe that if we follow God, everything should be smooth. But Scripture shows that obedience doesn't always mean ease. The question is, how do we react when things don't go as planned? When challenges arise, will you lean into faith or let disappointment cloud your vision?When your journey takes unexpected turns, remember—it's not about you completing it. It's about trusting that God will. Listen as Pastor Barbie shares the importance of faith in the face of uncertainty.Scriptures ReferencedExodus 17:1-7; Numbers 20:1-13; Ruth 1:1Key InsightsSometimes the journey isn't exactly what we expected. Sometimes it's difficult.How we respond when things don't turn out as expected is very important.Sometimes we won't move until things get uncomfortable.Do you trust God enough to honor Him as holy when things don't seem to be going right?God's presence precedes power.In God's presence we see both Him and ourselves.He is the same God now as before.God's presence is all around us.Prayer TargetsPlease join us in prayer for:A hunger for the Word.Tears for the sost.Testimonies to share.We would love it if you would consider joining us in person for one of our Sunday gatherings.Connect online: Download our appOur website: SpringhouseSmryna.comWhat we believeMinistries we supportFinancial accountabilitySpringhouse Theatre CompanyAdditional Resources Follow on Apple PodcastsFollow on SpotifyFollow on your favorite appSubscribe on YouTubeGiving: Online tithes and offeringsJoin us online: LivestreamGathering TimesSundays, 9:00 AMSundays, 10:30 AMThursdays, 6:00 PMContact InfoSpringhouse Church14119 Old Nashville HighwaySmyrna TN 37167615-459-3421 About SpringhouseIf you're looking for a church in Smyrna, TN that is focused on Loving Big, Living Truth, and Healthy Family, we'd love to connect with you.

Your past will throw everything it has at you, but God's future for you is greater. Stop looking back and step forward into the life He has prepared for you.— Like the Israelites, we sometimes feel trapped by our past, fearing that we'll never fully escape its grip. But here's the truth—when God delivers you, His power leads you forward. It might try to chase you down, but it cannot overcome the One who goes before you.God didn't just rescue Israel; He positioned Himself between them and their enemy, and He does the same for you. Instead of letting fear dictate your future, it's time to trust the God who redeems. Are you ready to stop looking back and start walking in His promises?Scriptures ReferencedExodus 14:14; Deuteronomy 31:6; Psalm 23:4, 27, 46, 118; Isaiah 43:19; John 14:27; Romans 6:6; 2 Corinthians 5:17; Hebrews 11:6, 13:8Key InsightsGod doesn't change.The world offers instability and will leave you empty.

Is Jesus truly your One Thing, or just one of many? A life built on Him stands firm through every storm. Listen and allow Him to be your firm foundation.— Many claim Jesus is important, but is He truly the foundation of your life? If Jesus is just one of many priorities, your faith will waver when trials come. But when He is your One Thing—the unshakable center of your life—everything else falls into place and this leads to security, peace, and purpose.A life built on Jesus isn't just about Sunday worship; it affects every decision, relationship, and action. When He is the One Thing, His presence shapes how we live, love, and lead. Are you building your life on a foundation that lasts, or on things that will fade? Make Him your One Thing today and experience the strength that only He can provide.Scriptures ReferencedPsalm 27:4-6, 16:6, 119:105, 145:1-7; Matthew 4:4; Luke 15:4-7, 19:10, 41-42; John 1:1-3, 6:35, 14:6; Colossians 1:15-18Key InsightsJesus is the One Thing. He is the answer. He is the way.There are indicators we can look at to show whether we are truly allowing Jesus to be the one thing.God's Word satisfies.What we believe should affect how we live.Jesus says “Come to me.”When you're in relationship with your King, you can't help but be excited and share it over and over.Prayer TargetsPlease join us in prayer for:A hunger for the Word.Tears for the sost.Testimonies to share.About SpringhouseIf you're looking for a church in Smyrna, TN that is focused on Loving Big, Living Truth, and Healthy Family, we'd love to connect with you.

Feeling disconnected in faith and life? Sometimes the one thing you need to let go of is the sin holding you back. Find genuine connection with God today.--In our fast-paced world, it's easy to feel spiritually disconnected, merely going through life's motions. We often project a facade that betrays our true selves while sin distances us from genuine relationships with God and others. James Jansen's sermon explores how shedding sin—no matter how minor it might seem—can transform our relationship with God, offering a more authentic existence.By honestly confronting the sin that resides within and actively choosing righteousness, we allow God's love to permeate every facet of our lives. This not only enriches our faith but also enhances our interactions with others. Tune into the sermon to uncover the profound impact of letting go of what's holding you back.Prayer TargetsPlease join us in prayer for:A hunger for the Word.Tears for the sost.Testimonies to share.About SpringhouseIf you're looking for a church in Smyrna, TN that is focused on Loving Big, Living Truth, and Healthy Family, we'd love to connect with you.

Feeling stuck in your faith journey? You might be just one step from transformation. Discover the path that leads you closer to the cross today!--Many believers find themselves feeling stagnant in their faith journey, yearning for a deeper connection with God. During a poignant sermon, Tim Hooper reveals the leu to experiencing life-changing transformation—taking one step closer to the cross. Through the story of Simon of Cyrene, we learn that our journey is filled with moments when God places unforeseen challenges before us. Instead of resisting these trials, embracing them can lead us toward spiritual growth.Explore the similarities between Simon's burden and our spiritual challenges, highlighting that we often transform the most when we closely follow Jesus, even through tough times. By surrendering our personal plans and placing trust in God's direction, we find a deeper, more fulfilling faith journey.

Are fears and doubts holding you back from God's promises? Sometimes the "what" isn't the problem—it's the "who." Dive into overcoming unbelief today!--We often ask ourselves what is holding us back in our spiritual journey. In this message, Pastor Justin suggests it may not be about a "what," but rather a "who"—specifically, ourselves succumbing to unbelief. He the experiences of biblical figures like Joseph and Moses to illustrate how setbacks can prepare us for a greater purpose.Our doubts and fears may manifest as unbelief, hindering our growth. You're invited to reassess not just what you believe, but who you believe holds the truth. By focusing on Jesus, the perfecter of our faith, we find courage to let go of doubts and to run the race set before us.

Is your calling hiding in your pursuit of God? Discover how seeking Him first can reveal your divine purpose and transform your life.--If you get him, you really don't need anything else because he encompasses all of itMany of us spend our lives chasing a calling, a specific purpose we feel we must uncover to reach fulfillment. But what if the secret to unlocking this purpose isn't in the chase itself, but in our pursuit of God? What if by seeking God wholeheartedly, we inadvertently unearth the calling He has woven into our very being? It's not about finding what you're meant to do, it's about discovering Him!When we prioritize our relationship with God, the steps we need to take become clearer, the path more certain. The call is not for us to chase titles or roles, but to deepen our love and connection with our Creator. In this discovery lies a peace and purpose that transcends earthly understanding.

"Why did God send the plagues?" They weren't just punishments—they were declarations of His power over all creation. Each plague struck at Egypt's gods, proving that Yahweh alone is Lord.— The ten plagues were not random disasters; they were strategic acts of divine authority. Each one progressively dismantled the Egyptian belief system, proving their gods powerless before the God of Israel.

Welcome to another enlightening episode of the Neuroscience Meets Social and Emotional Learning podcast. In today's episode, we delve deep into the transformative world of practical neuroscience with our special guest, Craig Polsfuss, a pioneering psychologist and author. Polsfuss introduces us to his groundbreaking book, Reality Shattering Insights, and shares his unique journey of integrating psychology, spirituality, and brain science to enhance mental well-being, performance, and spiritual insight. Join us as we explore how understanding and tapping into deeper consciousness can lead to life-changing insights and self-discovery. Learn to listen to your inner whispers and discover how to transform mental and emotional landscapes from within, moving from the intellect into the heart and beyond. Watch interview on YouTube here https://youtu.be/2Hu6_poYLn8 Welcome back to SEASON 13 of The Neuroscience Meets Social and Emotional Learning Podcast, where we connect the science-based evidence behind social and emotional learning and emotional intelligence training for improved well-being, achievement, productivity and results—using what I saw as the missing link (since we weren't taught this when we were growing up in school), the application of practical neuroscience. I'm Andrea Samadi, an author, and an educator with a passion for learning and launched this podcast 7 years ago with the goal of bringing ALL the leading experts together (in one place) to help us to APPLY this research in our daily lives. On today's EPISODE #358 we will cover: ✔ How licensed psychologist and former clinical social worker Craig Polsfuss, (among the pioneers of the Three Principles movement in the 1980s) bridged psychology, spirituality, and brain science to help people achieve mental well-being, top performance and spiritual insight. ✔ Uncover the formula to create your own Reality Shattering Insights. ✔ Learn how tap into a deeper consciousness that can lead to life-changing insights and self-discovery. For today's EP #358, we meet with a pioneering psychologist and author of the book published just last November, Reality-Shattering Insights[i], the first in a 4-book series entitled VoLT: The Vortex of Living Truth. Today's guest, Craig Polsfuss, a licensed psychologist and former clinical social worker, who pioneered the Three Principles movement in the 1980s after a powerful awakening. With nearly five decades of experience, he integrates psychology, spirituality, and brain science to help people achieve mental wellbeing, top performance, and spiritual insight. The "reality-shattering insights" that he shares inside his book will open your eyes, if you are looking for answers, to questions you might not have even known that you were asking yourself. Before we meet Craig Polsfuss, and begin our journey of self-discovery: A discovery that will take us from our head to our heart, and from our heart, into the depths of our soul. I've got to say that this episode is not like ANY I have done before, as Craig covered questions I have had for a very long time. Questions that came up when I first studying Wallace D. Wattles' The Science of Getting Rich book, 25 years ago, that we covered on EP 315[ii] with a 7-PART series. This book was one of the seminars that I sold in the late 1990s when I worked with speaker Bob Proctor. I always wondered “what is that thinking stuff that Wattles describes in his syllabus?” If you signed up for this seminar, you would have been given this syllabus to take home with you laminated. I've got at least 10 of them still today in my office. Back then I had no idea what Wattles was describing. That stuff he says “permeates, penetrates, and fills the interspaces of the universe.” And that “a thought in this substance produces the thing that is imaged by the thought.” I always thought it was some sort of “intelligence” but it wasn't until this past January, while studying this book series with Paul Martinelli, who also sold this seminar, and presented it years ago. I learned Paul's point of view that Wattles is saying this “thinking stuff” is God. And he goes on to say that we might all have our own interpretation of what we call this, (some might call it God, others a Higher Power, and others something entirely different) but I think we can all agree that there is something much bigger than us in the world. Something that keeps us connected to others, and can help us. I had to look to see what scientist Dr. Andrew Huberman would say on this topic and he goes on the record to say that he is “in absolute awe of Biology, believes in God” and elaborates by saying if you look at “the magnificence of biology, and the magnificence of nature (he says) it's impossible for (him) to conceive it could have come about any other way.”[iii] So coming back to this episode, if you have EVER wondered like me about this topic, I'm not trying to sell you in what I believe, but just asking you to keep an open mind as you listen. This episode is about: Learning how to Listen to the whispers of your deep knowing… It's about how exactly to pay attention to what comes up when you listen to your breath. We will cover how to drop from your mind and move into your heart… And Just Listen. This is where our next guest, author Craig Polsfuss explains is how you'll uncover your true answer. Just keep an open mind, and you'll see the beauty that exists when we can open our hearts …Reality Shattering Insights. INTRO: Welcome Craig, it's wonderful to meet you today. Where have we reached you this early Monday morning? Are you in St. Paul, MN? I've got to say that when I first saw your work, that I jumped a bit in my chair. Those who know me well, know I have quite a spiritual side, but we all see the world through different lenses. Can you first of all share where this journey (of the mind) began for you, bridging psychology, spirituality and brain science to bring you to where you are today? Q1: You write about "reality-shattering insights" in your new book, and the "proven" human ability to completely transform in an instant. Can you explain what you mean by “reality shattering insights?” and give some examples of people who have transformed their lives with these insights? Q1B: What does a complete personal transformation actually look like, and is instant change truly possible? Q2: I find this topic fascinating, and wrote about a book The Eureka Factor: Aha Moments, Creative Insight and the Brain (by John Kounios and Mark Beeman) on a recent EP330[iv]. Are Reality Shattering Insights like AHA Moments? Q3: What neuroscience component did you discover that contributed to your own personal awakening? How have others taken advantage of this? Can you talk more about this and add some brain science insight? Q3B: What about listeners who are tuning into this podcast episode, and they are curious to learn how to create “reality shattering insights” at will. What are the first steps to begin this transformative journey? Q3C: What is the core formula or method for radical personal transformation? Q3D: What are the different levels of personal and spiritual enlightenment? Q4: What IS this infinite intelligence? Q4: In your book, you mention it's a journey from your “head to your heart” and from your “heart to your soul.” Can you explain this a bit more? How do we “feel” our “soul?” Q5: How does co-creation work? Q6: How does this connect to social and emotional learning? Q7: Where do we go from here? For those who are interested in learning more, where should they begin? Craig, I want to thank you for your time today, sharing your book, Reality Shattering Insights, and decades of research.

Society tells us that if there's a God, there are many ways to get to Him, and Jesus is just one of those ways. But the Bible is the Word of God, and the Bible tells us that Jesus is the only path to the Father. If we want to be in relationship with God, we first have to come to terms with the fact that the Bible isn't just some religious book -- it's Living Truth.
