I've known author and ‘soul-shaper', Jeff Brown, long before I woke up to the agendas. I hosted him for the launch of his first book, Soulshaping, here in my hometown in 2012. Now, 7 books later, he's back again, but has been through hell to get to this moment. About Jeff Brown's new book, “In Trudeau's Kitchen”, he writes:'When Sophie Grégoire Trudeau—then wife of Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau—shared a quote from one of Jeff Brown's books on Facebook in 2017, he felt compelled to reach out and volunteer to support her mission. As his fingers hovered over the keyboard, a quiet voice rose within: Don't step into the political world. He ignored the voice, and clicked SEND. The Whistle-Blower's journey had unknowingly begun. Life, as he knew it, would never be the same." In this King Hero interview, we will be discussing his first-hand awakening to the evils of the political arena here in Canada, and how dark it can get for whistleblowers.And because I'm currently focussed on the topic and Jeff's past profession as a psychoanalyst, we will also be talking about mental health and the 100's of dangerous medications that are rampantly prescribed to people who are suffering. Check out my stream with Justine Lalonde from this week on the topic as well!https://kingheros.bethmartens.com/blog/107527-justine-lalonde-the-hidden-dangers-of-psychiatric-medsJeff's Bio:A former criminal lawyer and psychotherapist, Jeff Brown is the author of 7 popular books: Soulshaping, Ascending with Both Feet on the Ground, Love It Forward, An Uncommon Bond, Spiritual Graffiti, Grounded Spirituality, Hearticulations. And, 2 shadow banned books: Humanifestations, and Where is God in all of this? He is also the producer and central subject in the award-winning spiritual documentary, ‘Karmageddon,' which also features Ram Dass, Seane Corn, Deva Premal and Miten. Jeff has authored a series of inspirations for ABC'S ‘Good Morning America,' has been featured on http://FoxNews.com and dozens of radio shows, and has contributed to The Washington Post, Elephant Journal, Spirit of Maat, Positively Positive, The Good Men Project, Unity Magazine, Rebelle Society, and Maria http://Shriver.com. In 2010, he wrote a blog ‘Apologies to the Divine Feminine (from a warrior in transition),' which quickly went viral and continues to be widely shared today. In a world saturated with spiritual teachers and self-help gurus, Jeff brings a refreshingly honest and human approach to what he calls ‘grounded spirituality.' His dictionary of new terms and short impactful writings became a phenomenon some years ago, and continue to be shared by seekers and growers worldwide. His quotes have been shared in social media by Alanis Morrissette, Fergie, Jason Silva, LeAnn Rimes, Chrissy Metz, and many other well-known figures. Most beautifully, they have touched and benefited millions of souls. This gratifies him deeply. Jeff is also the founder of Soulshaping Institute and Enrealment Press. He lives in Canada. His next book, In Trudeau's Kitchen, will be available shortly.Twitter: @JeffBrownEnrealSubstack: https://jeffbrown42.substack.com Fakebook: https://www.facebook.com/SOULSHAPING/ Get his new book: https://trineday.com/products/in-trudeau-s-kitchen-my-unexpected-journey-with-sophie-trudeau-power-and-the-politics-of-intuition  *** MORE FROM BETHFor more from Beth, her books, her social media links, Telegram Groups, and to apply to become a member of the House of Free Will Ministry visit: https://linktr.ee/bethmartens Sign up to take a 5-minute King Hero's Journey archetype quizhttps://www.bethmartens.com/king-hero-archetype-quiz-sign-up Sign up for a Hero's Journey Archetype Reading:https://www.bethmartens.com/heros_journey_archetype_reading Being free is not a spectator sport - Hal Anthony, “Behind the Woodshed”

Latest Spoken Label (Author / Artist /Poetry Podcast) session features the return of our dear friend, the wonderful Alise Versella. Alise Versella is a Pushcart-nominated, contributing writer for Rebelle Society whose work has been published in Circle Show, COG Magazine, Crack the Spine, Entropy, The Opiate, Penumbra Literary and Art Journal, Poydras Review, Ultraviolet Tribe, What Rough Beast, Steam Ticket, and Elephant Journal, among others As stated elsewhere by Kate Fuller "With dazzling formal range, these poems observe the social ills of the day, using images so beautifully real and painful that the line between the literal and figurative blurs in the way only art attuned to the universally truthful can. The rage and wildness observed and experienced in them, whether through the media or in a visit to the doctor's office in a female body, serve as a balm to the injustices that only mortality might rectify: “perhaps the dead will breathe again,” writes Versella. Yet even in our “common stress dream” or the dream of “America,” the poet isn't blind to the enduring spirit of not just the dead, but also the living: “the humpback whale returns to the Hudson, hope on his lips.” Hope–these poems, what these poems say–can be made from the wreckage."More about Alise can be found on her website at: https://aliseversella.com/

Today on the A Pinch of Magick podcast I'm joined by Liz Childs Kelly, author and podcast host of 'Home to Her', and we venture into an exploration of the divine feminine, sacredness, and the journey to back to self. We explore what 'Home to Her' means to Liz, a concept steeped in personal interpretation and understanding. We discuss the allure of the Divine Feminine and the journey we undertake to return to the sacredness of our own bodies. Life has a funny way of surprising us, and Liz shares her unexpected path, which led her to her current work. We delve into the patriarchal lens of womanhood and what it truly means to shift the veil and perceive the world through a new lens. Ever felt a calling so strong, it's as if you're seeking the feminine face of God? We discuss this deep longing and the uncomfortable sensation of returning to 'normal' life after experiencing a 'split in reality'. How do we translate our experiences of the sacred into our daily practices? As we explore this, we discuss Liz's journey of initially trying to blend mindfulness with her business while feeling an urgent need to foster change. And sometimes, it's the unexplained, the paranormal events that shake us awake. Liz opens up about how one such experience that led her to a point where she could no longer ignore her calling. We talk about loss of identity, re-building your view of success and learning to engage with the world in new ways. Liz shares tales of pilgrimages to sacred sites in Europe with her family, the power of embracing the unknown, and the magick of finding the divine in the mundane. She reassures us that perfection isn't necessary to connect with the divine - a 'settled' everyday existence offers plenty of opportunities for this profound connection. We explore the importance of incorporating divinity into family life, and the concept of 'She' as a vibrant, living tradition. Liz illuminates the fact that the sacred feminine was not entirely suppressed in all places throughout history. The Goddess is very much alive and we're not starting from scratch when we want to connect with her. We'll discuss how to tap into the latent power within us and uncover the sacredness of the self. We end the conversation talking about interpreting the signs around you, what's calling to you and what are the breadcrumbs leading you on your journey? Liz guides us through this exploration and shares how connecting with nature can actually be a subversive act. So, come on this mystical journey with us. Grab a cuppa, find a cosy spot, and get ready to delve into a captivating conversation. After all, every day is a good day for a pinch of magick.

Liz shares with us her journey of co-creating the world she wants to live in by trusting in flow, trust, and faith, rather than following a rigid ten-step formula.Liz tells us about how inspiration struck her one morning, leading her to write her book, but how it took a few more years of living before it could be finished. The pandemic hit, and Liz found herself driving an RV across the country, dreaming of what the future could hold. She shares with us how her work was not done with her. It took six or seven years to complete. Liz was famished for information on the history of the divine feminine and her extensive research shows that even Neanderthals had carvings that resembled maternal symbols.This episode will leave you inspired to co-create the world you want to live in and to trust in the flow of life.

The Five Elements are the soul of Eastern medicine and express the fundamental unfolding of everything in the universe. These old, primordial powers shape our body's health and internal ecosystem, and act as a doorway through which we can come to remember that we are an embodiment of nature's cycles.In celebration of being on the cusp of the Fall Equinox, we will rejoice in the Earth Element, which is an expression of the paradox of late summer rising and abundance, mixed with the beginnings of decline and falling back to the ground. How are we feeling this transformation in our animal bodies at this time?We will also explore the spirit question of the Earth Element: How do I give and receive nourishment? Nourishment not just in my relationships with other humans but also from the whole of the living world. This Teleseminar will combine Elemental Medicine, Seasonal Alchemy, and Earth-honoring principles, exploring how the Earth Element wants to speak through you.About KendraKendra Ward, LAc.

Is unconditional love an idea you would like to feel? For most of us, it's a concept we are trying to understand, but for Laurie Seymour, it's an experience she had with her father who died when she was seven. Since her childhood, Laurie expanded her spiritual understanding in an effort to fill up the sense of emptiness within her, and get back to that unconditional love. A dynamic experience opened that door for her, and now she helps professional innovators to shift from judgment to curiosity, thinking to feeling, and snap decisions to inner inquiry so they can discover their own love–the door that opens all great innovations. Watch this episode for an exploration of how to unlock unconditional love for yourself, and for everyone you meet.

Happy Valentine's Day. Put down the box of Russell Stover candies and listen up. It's time to talk about death. There's no better way to celebrate love than to honor the fact that we eventually lose the ones we love. Or do we? On the Block Radio is a show about transformation. More specifically, we are a show about how people face intense experiences in their lives and transform them into meaning, beauty and purpose. There is no bigger transformation than that of death. To confront our own deaths, the sages of every religion teach, is the key to unlocking the eternal aspects within our consciousness and our bodies. There are few more basic human issues than the ever-ticking clock of our own mortality. It is what makes life tragic and glorious at the same time. And to help someone prepare for a beautiful death is to help a person fulfill their deepest potential as a human being. There is literally no higher calling. This is the calling Mellisa Dodson heard, and answered, on March 25, 2014. Melissa Dodson is a California girl who found her home in the trees of Portland, OR. She's a wife and mom, a writer and a Death Midwife. She writes about being a motherless daughter, grief, depression, vulnerability and the beauty of a messy life. She is a dream catcher, a grief warrior, a survivor, a book whore. Studying writing with Lidia Yuknavitch woke up all the broken pieces of her heart, and reminded her that words save. She now studies Dangerous Writing under the tutelage of Tom Spanbauer and the magic makers in the basement. Her work has been featured on The Manifest-Station, Rebelle Society, The Tattooed Buddha, behind-the-ink, Some Talk of You & Me, Breathe In. Breathe Out. Live, among other online publications. Since the March 25, 2014 death of her mother, her passions lie with grief, compassionate end-of-life planning, conscious death and dying, home death/home vigil/home funeral and natural/green burial. In 2015, she founded Grief Rites, a Facebook community to safely and openly talk about death and grief (website coming soon). She also curates the Grief Rites Readers Series, a literary event in NE Portland, to bring people together to hold sacred space for each other in their grief. The Readers Series meets the first Monday of each month at American Legion Post 134, and is free to all. Her next chapter includes turning Grief Rites into a 501c(3) non-profit organization. Funds raised through the Grief Rites Foundation will take the Readers Series on the road to broaden the reach of the grief safety net that she's created, and bring in renowned speakers and authors in the realm of death and grief. Additionally, there will be a fund to assist people with covering funeral and burial costs for green/natural burials. She is also continually studying, and offering her services though her Portland based business, Into the Light, LLC. Her offerings include compassionate end-of-life planning and education, death midwifery services, home funeral guidance, caregiver support and grief support.
