Join us for the next episode of the Our Daily Magic Podcast (LIVE from the Facebook Group) as "I am Magickai" aka Kaí and Dell Henderson aka The True Essence Connector will be interviewing Robbie Adkins. Robbie was born in Southern California shortly after WWII. She was able to grow up feeling safe and was able to explore all that this abundant world had to offer. There were, of course, limitations, but those caused her to start questioning everything…to become a seeker. After graduating from college with a degree in Graphic Communication, she started her very successful career as a graphic designer/illustrator. She won a guest editorship for Mademoiselle Magazine and went to New York to work as an intern for the month after her graduation. Her professional career included positions such as magazine art director and director of corporate communications for an emerging information company. She received many awards along the way, such as a Gold Medal from the LA Art Directors and a Best of Show from the Communication Arts group of San Diego. In her twenties, she took up the sport of skydiving and was in a world record formation made with all women. She then moved on to the emerging sport of hang gliding and was the only woman to qualify to compete in the Hang Gliding Nationals in 1974. Her whole life she has had an acute appetite for learning about all things spiritual with an emphasis on how we create our own reality. She has been influenced, among many others, by the teachings of Jesus Christ, Jane Roberts and the Seth materials, Native American teachings, the I-Ching, Abraham-Hicks, Alice A. Bailey and the teachings of the Tibetan, Tony Burroughs and The Intenders of the Highest Good, and most recently, Marilyn Harper – Adironnda. With all these experiences, the episode started with Kai being curious on how these affected Robbie's life today (10:49) where she shares how it boosted her confidence, and led her to write a book called "the Voice of the Soul". She further elaborated on the importance of alignment. Dell asks on how did Robbie started to become a seeker (19:19) where she shares her experience during her teens about Christianity and salvation. Dell shares his own similar experience (21:00). Kai then asks about Robbie's favorite practice(29:50) where she opened up about her book club. This sparked Kai's interest (31:49) where Robbie shares how it started, its mission and how it affected her personally. Kai then asks how would Robbie describe her mission through her work (36:27) where she shares about her book and she later turned into an app so that everyone can have access to it. Check it out on App store or Play store! Listen to the whole episode to know more about Robbie, her books, experiences and a lot more with our hosts. Stay Magical!

Tony Burroughs was a young man living in Hawaii, when an older philosopher sage took him under his wing and became his mentor at an exotic fruit farm on the big island. Over a period of ten years, Tony learned how to farm as well as "The Information," a series of oral lessons, comprising a body of deep teachings about the very meaning of life, the history of mankind, and how to not just exist but to evolve and live a meaningful life filled with love, peace and abundance. A core teaching was in regard to intention-setting and Tony and two friends started a weekly circle to try it out. This first humble circle of three people had dramatic and life-changing effects that have resulted in Tony Burrough's life-long mission to guide others in the art of manifesting the best in themselves, their lives, and for the highest good of all. The tenet of Get What You Want is simple, powerful and profound: "that which you are reaching toward is also reaching out toward you." And, for the first time, Tony has gathered many of the key teachings of "The Information" into one book.

Earl Lee, University Professor at Pittsburg State University and the author of numerous books and articles will discuss his book, From the Bodies of the Gods: Psychoactive Plants & the Cults of the Dead....The origins of modern religion in human sacrifice, ritual cannibalism, visionary intoxication, and the Cult of the Dead. We'll explore -• Explores ancient practices of producing sacred hallucinogenic foods and oils from the bodies of the dead for ritual consumption and religious anointing • Explains how these practices are deeply embedded in the symbolism, theology, and sacraments of modern religion, specifically Christianity and the Eucharist * These practices continued openly into the Dark Ages, when they were suppressed and adapted into the worship of saintly bones--or continued in secret by a few “heretical” sects, such as the Cathars and the Knights Templar. While little known today, these rites remain deeply embedded in the symbolism, theology, and sacraments of modern religion and bring a much more literal meaning to the church's “Holy Communion” Crossing the threshold into the second half of the show, we have author Tony Burroughs, author of The Law of Agreement helping us discover the true power of intention. Learn about intentional living and how when we lend our agreement to a belief, we reinforce it and make it stronger. Tony will tell us about the opportunity in adversity and what happens when we don't get what we want.
