We've mastered how to fight. But no one ever taught us how to repair.In this raw, emotionally electric episode, Raj sits down with his brother-in-growth Alex King to unpack the real reason our relationships—romantic, professional, and personal—fall apart: unseen attachments and unconscious triggers.Raj reveals the invisible architecture behind every emotional reaction, conflict, and moment of disconnection—and how to rewire your nervous system, soften the ego, and build true safety in love.This is the deep inner work that leads to freedom, resilience, and unshakable peace. And once you learn how to repair… everything changes.
This episode explores how to view your work, business, and creative projects through the lens of energy rather than conventional metrics. As I've grown in my spiritual journey, I've started to see everything as energy flows – when something isn't working between team members, I see stuck energy; when sales aren't flowing, there's likely a kink in the chain. In this conversation with Alex, we dive into how companies have souls born from the seed of an idea, how your consciousness gets embedded into every aspect of the business, and why aligning with "what wants to happen" rather than "what I want" can lead to quantum leaps in success.What You'll Learn:How to connect with the soul of your company or creative projectWhy your level of consciousness directly affects the flow of energy in your businessThe profound difference between "what I want" versus "what wants to happen"How to identify where energy is stuck in your organization and how to release itThe concept of "return on energy" as a more meaningful measure than return on investmentHow to become an "energy billionaire" rather than just pursuing financial successPractical ways to access intuitive leadership for better decision-makingHow creating safety is the fundamental role of conscious leadershipIf you're experiencing friction in your work, team dynamics, or sensing that your business isn't flowing as effortlessly as it could, this episode offers a completely different perspective on your challenges. I'm not sharing concepts from business books (there aren't any on this topic!) – this is what's actually working for me. When you realize you're not the owner of your creations but rather a conduit for what wants to flow through you, everything changes. You'll make decisions from greater alignment, attract unexpected opportunities, and experience the kind of expansion that happens when you get out of your own way.Connect with Raj:Newsletter – Sign up here: https://www.rajjana.com/staygrounded/Website: http://www.rajjana.com/Instagram: @raj_janaiTunes: https://podcasts.apple.com/rs/podcast/stay-grounded-with-raj-jana/id1318038490Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/22Hrw6VWfnUSI45lw8LJBPYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@raj_jana Hosted on Acast.

Burnout isn't just prevalent in today's culture—it's practically glorified. We've been conditioned to believe that pushing harder, running faster, and sacrificing more is the only path to success. But I've discovered there's a fundamental flaw in this approach: when we're fueled by fear, anxiety, or scarcity, we're drawing from a finite energy source that inevitably depletes us.Over the years, I've experienced a profound shift in my relationship with work. Despite working more hours than ever before in my entrepreneurial ventures, I feel less burnout and more alignment than at any previous point in my career. The secret? I've learned to source my energy from love rather than fear.When we operate from unconscious patterns and limiting beliefs inherited from culture, family, or religion, we're constantly fighting against ourselves. This creates tension in our system and eventually leads to exhaustion. But when we can align with a more authentic way of being that's in congruence with love, we tap into an infinite energy source that fuels creativity, connection, and inspiration.In this episode, Alex and I dive deep into what it takes to make this pivotal shift from being pushed by fear to being pulled by love.What you'll learn:The fundamental difference between being pushed by fear versus being pulled by loveHow to identify when you're operating from unconscious patterns and fear-based belief systemsPractical techniques to shift your perspective when facing challenging tasksWhy traditional "hustle culture" leads to burnout and how to work intensely without depleting yourselfThe role of surrender in accessing deeper sources of energy and inspirationHow to develop courage as a key ingredient for authentic livingTechniques for raising your standards by lowering your tolerance for what doesn't serve youWhy understanding your unique design and natural rhythms is crucial for sustainable successThe transformative power of gratitude in shifting from resentment to appreciationIf you're tired of feeling exhausted, if you're questioning whether the hustle is worth it, or if you're simply seeking a more sustainable way to pursue your passions—this episode is for you.I've walked the path from burnout to alignment, and I know firsthand that it's possible to do meaningful, impactful work without sacrificing your wellbeing. The frameworks and tools shared in this conversation aren't just theoretical—they're the exact practices that have transformed my relationship with work and allowed me to access a deeper, more sustainable source of energy.Your life is in direct proportion to what you tolerate. If you want a better life, just tolerate less. By choosing to source your energy from love rather than fear, you can break free from the burnout cycle and discover what it truly means to work in flow.Join Alex and I as we explore how courage, surrender, and self-understanding can help you tap into an infinite source of inspiration that makes even challenging work feel energizing rather than draining.Legal Disclaimer: The information and opinions discussed in this podcast are for educational and entertainment purposes only.

Through vulnerable personal stories and profound insights, they reveal how courage isn't just about taking bold actions, but about being willing to feel the emotions we most want to avoid.Key Takeaways:Every moment presents a choice between courage and comfort - growth happens when we consistently choose courageTrue courage often means letting go rather than holding on tighter to our desired outcomesFear can serve as a compass - the things we're most afraid of often point to our greatest opportunities for growthThe path of awakening requires us to feel the emotions we're most afraid of feeling, as this liberates us from their holdOur relationship with uncertainty and death underlies many of our fears around taking courageous actionCourage requires both trust and self-compassion as we navigate the unknownSuccess often comes when we release our attachment to specific timelines and trust in divine timingThe longest journey is from the head to the heart - courage helps bridge this gapReal growth happens when we engage with life rather than trying to control itThe paradox of courage: when we fully accept our worst fears, we become free to receive what we truly wantWhether you're facing a career transition, relationship challenges, or simply feeling called to live more authentically, this episode offers profound insights into harnessing courage as a transformative force in your life.

In this illuminating episode of Stay Grounded, Raj Jana and Alex explore the transformative power of relationships as vehicles for spiritual awakening and personal growth. Rather than viewing relationships solely as sources of happiness, they discuss how relationships serve as mirrors that reflect our deepest wounds, beliefs, and patterns - offering unprecedented opportunities for healing and evolution.Key Takeaways:Relationships are not meant to make us happy, but to help us grow - happiness is a byproduct of doing the inner workWhere there is a trigger in relationship, there is an opportunity for deep healing and self-discoveryThe quality of our relationships is directly influenced by our beliefs and programming around love, much of which comes from our parents and cultural conditioningIt's easier to blame others or leave relationships than to take radical ownership of our patterns and do the inner workTrue lasting love requires dismantling unhealthy beliefs about "happily ever after" and embracing relationship as a journey of mutual growthBoth partners need to be willing to look at themselves and take ownership of their patterns for the relationship to reach its highest potentialTime spent in a relationship isn't necessarily a measure of success - a 9-year relationship could be 1 year repeated 9 times without growthWhen we do our inner work and heal our wounds, we create space for more authentic and fulfilling connectionsSocial media often shows the highlight reel of relationships while hiding the mountain of inner work required to maintain themThe path to extraordinary love requires courage to examine ourselves honestly and lean into difficult conversationsWhether you're currently in a relationship, healing from heartbreak, or seeking deeper connection, this episode offers profound insights into using relationships as catalysts for awakening. Raj and Alex's vulnerable sharing and practical wisdom illuminate how we can transform our relationship challenges into opportunities for profound personal evolution. If you're ready to move beyond surface-level connections and experience the transformative power of conscious relationships, this episode is your invitation to begin that journey.Connect with Raj:Newsletter – Sign up here: https://www.rajjana.com/staygrounded/Website: http://www.rajjana.com/Instagram: @raj_janaiTunes: https://podcasts.apple.com/rs/podcast/stay-grounded-with-raj-jana/id1318038490Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/22Hrw6VWfnUSI45lw8LJBPYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@raj_janaLegal Disclaimer: The information and opinions discussed in this podcast are for educational and entertainment purposes only.

In this profound episode of Stay Grounded, host Raj Jana sits down with Dr. Zach Bush to explore the deep interconnectedness of human health, emotional well-being, and our relationship with nature. Dr. Zach Bush, MD, is a renowned physician specializing in internal medicine, endocrinology, and hospice care. His work integrates a deep understanding of human biology, environmental science, and emotional health. Dr. Bush is a pioneer in the field of intrinsic health, with a focus on the microbiome and its connection to overall well-being. As the founder of the Journey of Intrinsic Health, he advocates for a holistic approach to healing, emphasizing the interdependence of emotional resilience, the microbiome, and planetary health. This conversation delves into the root causes of disconnection in modern society and presents a compelling vision for reconnecting with our intrinsic health.Key insights from the episode:The surprising link between human disconnection and ancient historical eventsHow unprocessed emotions become "stored" in specific parts of the body, potentially leading to diseaseThe unexpected way quantum entanglement relates to cellular identity and healingWhy the concept of "emotional hygiene" might be more crucial for health than we've realizedThe intriguing reason Dr. Bush believes humans are uniquely capable of witnessing beauty in natureHow unconditional love might be experienced through both profound joy and heartbreaking lossThe counterintuitive approach to feeling "grounded" that doesn't involve external practices or foodsThe biggest takeaway from this episode is Dr. Bush's perspective on intrinsic health and the power of reconnection. He posits that true healing comes not from external interventions, but from within - by allowing ourselves to fully feel and process our emotions, reconnecting with our bodies, and recognizing the beauty and perfection in nature and ourselves. This shift in perspective from seeking external solutions to embracing our intrinsic capacity for health and wholeness offers a profound and potentially transformative approach to wellbeing.Connect with Dr. Bush:Website: https://journeyofintrinsichealth.com/Join Dr Bush's Community: https://journeyofintrinsichealth.com/Instagram: @zachbushmdConnect with Raj:Website: http://www.rajjana.com/Instagram: @raj_janaiTunes: https://podcasts.apple.com/rs/podcast/stay-grounded-with-raj-jana/id1318038490Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/22Hrw6VWfnUSI45lw8LJBPYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@raj_janaLegal Disclaimer: The information and opinions discussed in this podcast are for educational and entertainment purposes only.

In this episode of Stay Grounded, Raj and his partner Natalie take us on a transformative journey through their experience at Burning Man. This annual event in Nevada's Black Rock Desert is far more than just a festival - it's a temporary city built on principles of radical self-expression, communal effort, and gifting. For one week, tens of thousands of participants create art, share experiences, and push the boundaries of their comfort zones in a unique environment that challenges societal norms and personal limitations.Key insights from Raj and Natalie's Burning Man adventure:The power of intention-setting in manifesting synchronistic experiencesHow radical self-reliance paradoxically fosters deep community connectionThe unexpected wisdom found in getting lost during a dust stormWhy play and childlike wonder can be profound tools for personal growthThe transformative potential of gifting without expectation of returnHow Burning Man serves as a "maturation ceremony" for many participantsThe delicate balance between sacred rituals and profane celebrationsThe challenge and reward of truly allowing oneself to receiveWhy preparing for Burning Man can be as enlightening as the event itselfHow the playa becomes a mirror, reflecting one's deepest essenceThe biggest takeaway from this episode is the profound personal growth that comes from releasing control and embracing the unknown. Raj and Natalie's experiences highlight how surrendering to the unpredictable nature of Burning Man - and by extension, life itself - opens doors to transformation, deeper connection, and a more authentic way of being. Their journey teaches us that true surrender isn't about giving up, but about opening up to the magic and potential of each moment.Connect with Natalie:Instagram: @thenatalieadeleYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@SatNamSocietyConnect with Raj:Website: http://www.rajjana.com/Instagram: @raj_janaiTunes: https://podcasts.apple.com/rs/podcast/stay-grounded-with-raj-jana/id1318038490Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/22Hrw6VWfnUSI45lw8LJBPYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@raj_janaLegal Disclaimer: The information and opinions discussed in this podcast are for educational and entertainment purposes only.

TODAY'S GUESTFormer reservoir engineer, 40-Under-40 entrepreneur, and media host Raj Jana is passionate about building businesses and spreading messages that shift consciousness on the planet.His first company, JavaPresse, a lifestyle brand in the coffee space, has helped over 500,000 individuals use coffee as a vehicle to achieve more daily fulfillment. Raj's work has been endorsed by Daymond John of Shark Tank and featured in Forbes, Buzzfeed, Huffington Post, Entrepreneur Magazine, and various other news outlets.Seeking fulfillment, Raj sold a major part of his company, JavaPresse, in 2019 to focus on his mental health and relationships. Despite investing heavily in modalities like plant medicine and various forms of therapy, nothing stuck. He realized most tools only treat surface-level stress, not the root cause, so the transformation was short-lived.Frustrated with the inefficiency and ineffectiveness of existing mental health resources, Raj and his partners created Liber8 - a human transformation company that helps people use precision emotional analytics to improve mental health outcomes. Liber8's Emotional Lab Reports help everyone, from cancer patients to people struggling with anxiety, to gain a clear understanding of the psychological factors contributing to their stress while empowering them with tools and community-driven support to create measurable change.Raj currently splits his time between the US and Costa Rica and is an avid adventurer at heart. As a seeker, Raj explores the edges of spirituality, healing, and personal development on his critically acclaimed podcast - Stay Grounded - which reaches thousands of people in 70+ countries each week.Website: http://www.rajjana.com/Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/raj_janaiTunes: https://podcasts.apple.com/rs/podcast/stay-grounded-with-raj-jana/id1318038490YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@raj_janaLiber8: https://liber8.health/ON TODAY'S EPISODEHow can childhood trauma impact nervous system regulation and our mental health throughout life?What is the fundamental role of our emotions in our overall health and well-being?Why is developing a healthy relationship with our emotions crucial to achieving balance and inner peace?What are emotional lab reports, and how can they help us address limiting beliefs and emotions?What are the tangible benefits of meditation and stillness in pursuing inner peace and alignment?How can we become aware of our nervous system responses and use this information to improve our mental health?How can procrastination and resistance affect our emotional health, and how can we address these patterns?What is the relationship between our childhood experiences, beliefs, and perceptions of the world?How can we rebuild healthy relationships with our emotions and minds to live more satisfying lives?What practical strategies can we implement to effectively build emotional awareness and listen to our nervous system?How does our relationshGet on the waitlist for Blood Sugar Mastery at https://www.daniellehamiltonhealth.com/blood-sugar-mastery
We all have parts of ourselves that consciously or unconsciously undermine our own wellbeing and dreams. But what causes this self-sabotaging tendency? Where does that inner voice dismissing our needs come from?On this month's reflection episode of Stay Grounded, Raj takes a stab at answering these questions from his own lived experiences. Amidst pivotal healing work and relationship mirrors, Raj gains profound clarity on childhood origins of his own self-abandonment patterns.Tune in now to learn:Why our closest relationships often reveal our deepest triggers needing releaseThe subtle childhood “trauma” that started Raj's pattern of self-abandonmentThe steps Raj is taking to clear himself of unhealthy attachment dynamicsHow to reframe disappointments as helpful redirects on your soul's unique pathWhy surrendering control is required to experience the life you actually wantRaj offers an inside look at his emotional process - from uprooting energetic parasites from his system to gaining self-awareness around dynamics with loved ones that conditioned him to put the needs of others before his own. If you resonate with feeling stuck in unhealthy patterns of self-abandonment, Raj's story will inspire deeper trust in the artful unfolding of life through a commitment to the inner work.Connect with Raj:Website: http://www.rajjana.com/Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/raj_janaiTunes: https://podcasts.apple.com/rs/podcast/stay-grounded-with-raj-jana/id1318038490Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/22Hrw6VWfnUSI45lw8LJBPYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@raj_janaLegal Disclaimer: The information and opinions discussed in this podcast are for educational and entertainment purposes only.

In this thought-provoking discussion, Dan Russell chats with Raj Jana about the discomfort that often arises when we allow ourselves to sit with challenging emotions and triggers. They explore how we can build the "courage muscle" to lean into these difficult spaces on the path to growth and self-discovery.By sharing vulnerable stories from their journeys, they expose how suppressed trauma, limiting beliefs, and unresolved pain can silently manifest in the body as symptoms like fatigue, skin issues, sexual dysfunction, and poor digestion. Our guest Dan Russell brings a deep experience in personal development and spiritual discovery to this conversation. As the founder of Hama, a personal growth community offering online and in-person programs focused on enlightenment, Dan has dedicated himself to researching techniques and tools for conscious living. After stepping back from a successful marketing career to embark on his own journey of self-inquiry, he now guides others looking to actualize the best version of themselves.Key takeaways:Plant medicines and other modalities can bring unconscious beliefs and traumas to the surface, but the real work happens in how skillfully we integrate these lessons into our daily living.Sitting with discomfort and leaning into triggered emotional spaces with courage is essential for growth - this builds our "awareness muscle."Realigning with our deepest principles helps us stay anchored in a state of grace, allowing external triggers to bounce off us.Cultivating proactive awareness through stillness practices allows us to pause and retain choice over our responses rather than blindly reacting.The journey of self-inquiry and consciously working on ourselves is a profound gift that serves our life purpose in each passing moment.This insightful discussion reminds us that integrating our experiences and doing the ongoing work of "becoming" is what enables real and lasting transformation.

In this episode, Raj shares about his experience recently completing a 10-day silent meditation retreat. He discusses the profound lessons and insights he gained.Key Takeaways:The difference between "doing" and "being" and how we often use activity and busyness to distract from simply being.How sitting in stillness and silence forced Raj to confront deeply rooted patterns, beliefs, fears and attachments.The value of "zooming out" - accessing higher states of consciousness and awareness to witness the egoic mind with compassion.Letting go of control and moving from a place of trying to "manifest" outcomes to one of allowing and trusting in the perfection of each moment.Shifting perspective - how our perceptions create our reality. WIDENING one's lens is a spiritual practice.Aloneness versus loneliness. Learning to find nourishment in solitude.Why Raj feels integrating more slowing down and stillness will serve his life in 2024.In a world that glorifies busyness and productivity, creating space for stillness often takes courage, but offers immense rewards. As Raj discovered, when we slow down and cut away external distractions, we open the doorway to greater presence, self-awareness, and alignment with our deeper truth. We come home to who we really are.If you're feeling the urge to explore more stillness and silence in your own life, whether for 10 minutes or 10 days, this episode offers much food for thought. Raj's experience serves as inspiration to us all on the value of simply "being" amidst life's perpetual motion. Tune into his hard-won insights - it just may change the way you see the world.Tools/resources mentioned in this episode:Vipassana meditationSatsangs (spiritual discourses and Q&A)Plant medicines/psychedelicsJournalingBook recommendation: "Man's Search for Meaning" by Viktor FranklConnect with Raj:Website: http://www.rajjana.com/Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/raj_janaiTunes: https://podcasts.apple.com/rs/podcast/stay-grounded-with-raj-jana/id1318038490Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/22Hrw6VWfnUSI45lw8LJBPYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@raj_janaLegal Disclaimer: The information and opinions discussed in this podcast are for educational and entertainment purposes only.

You love my monthly reflections, where I share my honest, personal, and practical insights. Now, I am giving you a special gift: my yearly reflection process. This is how I review my past year and prepare for the next one. You'll learn how to close this year with gratitude and intention, and how to create a vision for the new year that aligns with your true self. I will show you the steps and the rituals I use to make this process meaningful and effective. This is your chance to learn from my experience and apply my tools to your own life. Don't miss this opportunity to reflect, grow, and transform.When I think about my pace of growth, I'm so clear it's because I've cultivated a lifestyle of awareness. This means I intentionally carve out time to reflect on the things that are happening in my life - and how I move through them. For me, hindsight is a 20/20 vision. Reflection reveals all the lessons and secrets life is teaching me. You can avoid repeating mistakes and integrate discoveries with more ease and grace by pulling them out. If you're a regular listener of Stay Grounded, you'll know I reflect monthly. I reflect on an annual basis too. It's actually one of my most favorite things I do. And in this episode, I'm revealing my entire process- step by step. Check it out. Key topics covered:Why your annual reflection starts with a month-by-month overview.Why do we look for the highs and lows - not the wins and losses? Annual reflection as a game of two halves. Really learning from ‘mistakes'. My closure ritual (and why it's not for the end of the year alone). My 7 reflection questions. Finding your theme. Crafting goals around the way I want to feel - instead of the things I want to attract. And more…BONUS! Here's a list of the reflection questions I ask in the episode: Who or what would you like to acknowledge? What would you like to acknowledge about yourself? What are you ready to let go of or forgive? What did you love most about 2018? What do you want more of / what do you want to do differently in 2019? What would need to happen for you to feel the complete closure of 2018? What's next for you RIGHT NOW?This reflection process is here for you to explore whenever you choose to take some self-awareness time for yourself. It's perfect for closing out the year, but you can also use this sequence anytime you're at an ending. I hope you enjoy it!Connect with Raj:Website: http://www.rajjana.com/Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/raj_janaSpotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/22Hrw6VWfnUSI45lw8LJBPLegal Disclaimer: The information and opinions discussed in this podcast are for educational and entertainment purposes only.
