Conflict Resolution Beyond the International Relations Paradigm: Evolving Designs as a Transformative Practice in Nagorno-Karabakh and Syria (Ibidem Press, 2017) holds the promise of freeing approaches and policies with regard to politics of identity from the fatalistic grip of realism. While the conceptual literature on identity and conflicts has moved in this alternative direction, conflict resolution practice continues to rely on realist frames and acts as an unwanted auxiliary to traditional International Relations (IR). Perpetuation of conflict discourses, marginalization, and exclusion of affected populations are widespread. They are caused by the over-reliance of conflict resolution practice on the binary frames of classic IR paradigms and also by the competitive and hierarchical relationships within the field itself. Philip Gamaghelyan relies on participatory action research (PAR) and collective auto-ethnography to expose patterns of exclusion and marginalization as well as the paradoxical reproduction of conflict-promoting frames in current conflict-resolution practice applied to the Nagorno-Karabakh and Syrian crises. He builds on the work of post-modernist scholars, on reflective practice, and on discourse analysis to explore alternative and inclusive strategies with a transformative potential through reflections and actions customary for PAR. The IR discipline, that has dominated policy-making, is only one possible lens, and often a deficient one, for defining, preventing, or resolving contemporary conflicts wrapped in identity politics. Other conceptual frameworks can help to rethink our understanding of identity and conflicts and reconstruct them as performative and not static phenomena. These transformative frameworks are increasingly influential in the conflict resolution field and can be applied to policy-making. ABOUT THE AUTHOR Philip Gamaghelyan is an Associate Professor at the Joan B. Kroc School of Peace Studies at the University of San Diego. He has served as Director of the Master's Program in Conflict Management and Resolution, the Graduate Certificate in Mediation, and the Security Studies concentration. His teaching spans conflict analysis and resolution, mediation, media and conflict, nationalism and conflict, and intervention design, among other areas.

Fluent Fiction - Hungarian: The Transformative Sketch: Áron's Journey to Connection Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more:fluentfiction.com/hu/episode/2025-11-10-08-38-20-hu Story Transcript:Hu: A Balaton-felvidéki Nemzeti Park festői szépségű tájain, az őszi fák színes koronája alatt csoport sétált.En: In the picturesque landscapes of the Balaton-felvidéki Nemzeti Park, beneath the colorful crowns of autumn trees, a group strolled.Hu: Az avar alatt megbúvó vízcseppek könnyű párát vetettek a levegőbe, és a távolban a Balaton hullámai halkan csapkodták a partot.En: Water droplets hidden under the fallen leaves cast a light mist into the air, and in the distance, the waves of Balaton gently lapped the shore.Hu: Áron, a kissé visszahúzódó fiatal, a csoport végén lépkedett.En: Áron, a slightly withdrawn young man, walked at the end of the group.Hu: Egy kis füzetet szorongatott a kezében, tele vázlataival, amit a természet inspirált.En: He clutched a small notebook in his hand, filled with sketches inspired by nature.Hu: Áron mindig is szerette a természetet és a rajzolást, de a társas kapcsolatokban nem volt túl magabiztos.En: Áron had always loved nature and drawing, but he wasn't too confident in social relationships.Hu: A tanulmányi kirándulás különleges alkalom volt számára, hogy talán megmutassa a világának egy darabját valakinek különösen, például Zsófiának, a csoport vezető lelkének.En: The study trip was a special opportunity for him, perhaps to show a piece of his world to someone in particular, like Zsófia, the group's leading spirit.Hu: Zsófia lendületesen haladt az ösvényen, barátaival nevetgélve.En: Zsófia moved energetically along the path, laughing with her friends.Hu: Minden akadályt könnyedén vett, mintha a hegyek része lenne.En: She overcame every obstacle with ease, as if she were a part of the mountains.Hu: Áron csodálta őt, és vágyott arra, hogy részesévé váljon ennek a közegnek.En: Áron admired her and longed to become part of this milieu.Hu: De félt, hogy a rajzai nem elég jók, hogy megérintsenek másokat.En: But he feared that his drawings weren't good enough to touch others.Hu: Ahogy a csoport megállt egy panorámás kilátónál, Áron halkan leült egy fa tövébe.En: As the group stopped at a panorama viewpoint, Áron quietly sat down at the base of a tree.Hu: Elővette a füzetét, és hozzálátott egy újabb vázlat készítéséhez az őszi színpomparól.En: He took out his notebook and began creating another sketch of the autumn splendor.Hu: A levegő frissessége, a látvány szépsége, mind-mind megihlették őt.En: The freshness of the air, the beauty of the view, all inspired him.Hu: Zsófia kíváncsian figyelte őt a háttérből.En: Zsófia watched him curiously from the background.Hu: Lassan közelebb lépett, leült mellé.En: Slowly, she stepped closer and sat down beside him.Hu: "Mit rajzolsz?En: "What are you drawing?"Hu: " – kérdezte mosolyogva.En: she asked with a smile.Hu: Áron szíve hevesen dobbant, de mély levegőt vett.En: Áron's heart pounded, but he took a deep breath.Hu: "Az őszi tájat.En: "The autumn landscape.Hu: Szerinted jó?En: Do you think it's good?"Hu: "Zsófia ámulva nézte a rajzot.En: Zsófia gazed at the drawing in amazement.Hu: "Ez csodálatos!En: "This is wonderful!Hu: Mindjárt megmutatom a többieknek!En: I'll show it to the others right away!"Hu: " – és azelőtt, hogy Áron tiltakozhatott volna, Zsófia már a többiekhez sietett.En: — and before Áron could protest, Zsófia was already hurrying to the others.Hu: A csoport minden tagja érdeklődve gyűlt köréjük.En: Every member of the group gathered around them with interest.Hu: Áron legnagyobb meglepetésére mind elismeréssel szóltak a rajzról.En: To Áron's greatest surprise, they all spoke with admiration about the drawing.Hu: Ez a pillanat megváltoztatta Áron önmagáról alkotott képét.En: This moment changed Áron's self-perception.Hu: A többi diákkal együtt nevetett, élvezte a figyelmet és a nagy, közös beszélgetést.En: He laughed with the other students, enjoyed the attention, and the big, shared conversation.Hu: A kirándulás végén Áron már nem ugyanaz az introvertált fiú volt.En: By the end of the trip, Áron was no longer the same introverted boy.Hu: Rájött, hogy bátran megoszthat másokkal is valamit, amit szenvedéllyel csinál.En: He realized that he could bravely share with others something he did with passion.Hu: Zsófia-val pedig barátságot kötött, amely túlnőtt a tanulmányi kirándulás keretein.En: He formed a friendship with Zsófia, which grew beyond the confines of the study trip.Hu: Csak most érezte igazán, hogy tud kapcsolódni másokhoz, és örömmel tette ezt.En: Only now did he truly feel he could connect with others, and he did so with joy.Hu: Az őszi nap sugarai lassan lenyugvóban voltak, amikor Áron boldogan hagyta el a parkot, tele új barátságokkal és az önbizalom új hullámával.En: The rays of the autumn sun were slowly setting as Áron left the park happily, filled with new friendships and a new wave of self-confidence.

In this episode of Transformative Principal, host Jethro Jones interviews Adrian Ireland, an international educator, systems thinker, and author of "Designing Different." Together, they explore the challenges and opportunities in reimagining the architecture of learning within schools. The conversation delves into why educational reform often fails when it focuses on incremental improvements rather than structural changes, emphasizing the importance of authentic learning experiences, student motivation, and agency.Adrian shares insights on how small but significant changes—like creating "sandboxes" for experimentation and expanding the audience for student work—can lead to meaningful transformation. The discussion covers the pitfalls of over-relying on extrinsic motivators like grades, the value of interdisciplinary and project-based learning, and the need for flexible systems that nurture both passion and competence in students. Practical examples, such as school newspapers and project weeks, illustrate how schools can foster ownership, engagement, and real-world skills.Making little pockets where students can be seen in a different light with different experiencesHow education has an architecture problem, not an effort problem. The flow of the river. Curricularize them!Neglect students' autonomy at our own demise.More about motivation. Intrinsic vs. extrinsic motivation.False fails - good ideas that are implemented into architecture that rejects them. Design principles - authenticity, flexibility, mutuality (we are connected), and simplexity (designed simple but able to handle a complex reality)School Newspaper as an example of mutuality.The whole game at a junior level - Good architectures that already exist. Avenues World SchoolWhat comes first, passion or competence? Interdisciplinary teamsHow to be a transformative principal? Make a decision that we are going to have two official expositions of student work. Create a sandbox, a space of possibility. About Adrian IrelandAdrian Ireland is an international educator, systems thinker, and author dedicated to reimagining the architecture of learning. With extensive experience teaching and leading across Asia and Europe, Adrian has spent his career challenging the traditional, standardized models of education by championing learner-centered approaches that value individuality, curiosity, and creativity. His entrepreneurial mindset drives him to experiment with bold ideas, test innovative systems, and design frameworks that empower both students and educators to thrive. He wears a mix of hats that have shaped his perspectives on education: Watching the development and natural learning progressions of his two boys as father. Coaching Volleyball at both high and low levels. Teaching in the classroom in both middle and high school. Leading full school change efforts around interdisciplinary learning and  project-based learning. Redesigning time and scheduling to allow space for change and most recently Coordinating the MYP (Middle Years Program).  Rooted in both practical classroom experience and a deep understanding of educational theory, Adrian believes that the future of learning lies not in small improvements, but in daring to create something fundamentally different. His work blends systems thinking with human-centered design principles, helping schools and organizations shift toward environments that foster authentic engagement and personal growth.In "Designing Different", Adrian shares the lessons, insights, and strategies gathered from years of navigating the complexity of educational reform, inspiring others to move beyond "better" and design the future of learning.

In this Seminar, I will inquire whether such training may constitute “fair use” under the nonexclusive four-factor test of the U.S. Copyright Act. Currently, courts are wrestling with the fair use defense in several major cases, including Thompson Reuters v. ROSS Intelligence; Bartz v. Anthropic; Kadrey v. Meta; and the consolidated litigation of In re: OpenAI.Another open question is whether AI outputs infringe copyright in other works. Here, plaintiffs must establish that AI outputs infringe their works by passing the threshold of the “substantial similarity” test. I will discuss the test in the context of AI litigation, and will suggest that the relatively novel “market dilution” theory, focusing on harm caused by stylistically similar outputs, might be applied to weigh against a fair use defense for GenAI training. I will also address whether the theory of “vicarious liability” might be fruitfully brought to bear against certain genAI companies. Lastly, I will ask what action Congress can, or should, take, with a view to striking a fair balance between meeting the needs of innovative technologies and securing the rights of creative industries and creators. As an example, I will raise a recent proposal (in which I was involved) that Congress explicitly prohibit GenAI training on materials derived from digital repositories of unlicensed materials (so-called “shadow libraries”).For more information (and to download slides) see: https://www.cipil.law.cam.ac.uk/seminars-and-events/cipil-seminars

Justin Bieber BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Justin Bieber has made headlines over the past week for a series of newsworthy moves, emotional reveals, and business milestones that signal a new chapter both professionally and personally. Currently 31, Justin emerged from a period of relative quiet to preview new music and open up on Twitch, the live-streaming platform he joined just days ago. Fans have gotten a raw look at his daily life—skateboarding, studio sessions, and candid conversations—where he's reflected on the challenge of being emotionally vulnerable in the public eye. Displaying his signature transparency, Bieber told viewers sharing himself in this way is “vulnerable as hell,” admitting that even supportive comments can be overshadowed by online negativity, but he insisted that he still has his zest for life, despite critics. Music fans are buzzing about Justin's return to the spotlight. This year marked his first live performance in the U.S. since 2022, with his next major performance set for Coachella 2026 as a Saturday headliner. The Coachella announcement, which also features Sabrina Carpenter, Karol G, and Anyma, sold out in days and prompted Hailey Bieber, his wife, to share her excitement on Instagram with a playful “BIEBERCHELLA!!!!!!!!! :)” Justin revealed that while he's excited and working hard for the Coachella set, the prospect of a traditional world tour feels “super daunting.” After years of non-stop touring, balancing new fatherhood with 15-month-old son Jack Blues, and his marriage to Hailey, Justin now prefers “spot dates,” choosing quality and family over quantity and exhaustion. According to People, he's made it clear he'll focus on select shows rather than year-long touring marathons, explaining that he plans to perform new material from his Swag albums live for the first time at Coachella. Behind the scenes, Bieber has quietly staged a business transformation. According to CEO Today, he launched his minimalist, high-quality streetwear line SKYLRK in 2025, with the debut collection selling out within hours and earning comparisons to Fenty and Yeezy. Bieber's strategy sees him leveraging his social media reach, estimated at over 290 million followers, for direct-to-consumer sales and exclusive events. This pivot, coupled with his wife Hailey's beauty brand Rhode, positions the couple as a power duo in entertainment entrepreneurship. With Bieber's net worth estimated at $300 million and SKYLRK's next drop already rumored to involve top designer collaborations, industry watchers see Justin's moves as a blueprint for celebrity-led brand empires. On social platforms, Justin's Twitch streams, Hailey's Instagram posts celebrating his achievements, and the family's outing to a World Series game in LA have kept the Biebers' name trending. While there are always tabloids hinting at drama—Justin recently dismissed rumors as “gossip and lies”—verified reporting points to a man prioritizing family, business innovation, and a return to passionate music-making on his own terms.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI

Adverse childhood experiences are notoriously hard to overcome, and they can affect a person well into adulthood. But the grace of close, stable, nurturing relationships can offer hope. Terence Lester—author of From Dropout to Doctorate and founder of Love Beyond Walls—joins Mark Labberton for a conversation about resilience, faith, and the redemptive power of seeing and being seen. Lester recounts his life's journey from poverty, homelessness, and gang membership in southwest Atlanta to earning his PhD in public policy and social change. Together, they explore the impact of childhood trauma on personal development; education as a form of love, justice, and community service; and the healing potential of local community and proximity. Lester's story is a testament to divine grace, human courage, and the transformative impact of compassionate words and faithful presence. Episode Highlights "The higher your ACE score, the more your body has to overcome… Every 'yes' cultivates a stronger relationship with pain. Your counterparts with lower scores may never develop those same muscles of resilience." "Education is a tool that increases your capacity to serve others." "People don't become what you want them to become—they become what you encourage them to become." "I am a product of people who invested in me and of the things I've had to resist." "You can't love your neighbour if you're not concerned about the neighbourhood that produces your neighbour." "Each sentence spoken can become a seed of hope—or a curse that crushes it."

Good morning from Pharma Daily: the podcast that brings you the most important developments in the pharmaceutical and biotech world. Today, we're diving into several significant shifts in the industry, marked by scientific advancements, regulatory changes, and strategic corporate maneuvers.Starting with a major acquisition, Novartis has strategically purchased Avidity Biosciences, a San Diego-based biotech company specializing in muscular dystrophy treatments, for a striking $12 billion. This substantial investment underscores Novartis's dedication to expanding its neuroscience portfolio. Avidity's innovative RNA-based therapies show great promise for treating neuromuscular diseases, highlighting a broader industry trend where large pharmaceutical companies are investing heavily in late-stage biotech firms to bolster their pipelines with cutting-edge technologies. Such moves are pivotal as they align with the growing emphasis on precision medicine and the development of novel therapeutic options for conditions with limited existing treatments.In other acquisition news, Eli Lilly has expanded its gene therapy portfolio through acquiring Adverum Biotechnologies for up to $262 million. This acquisition is expected to bolster Eli Lilly's position in the gene therapy space, particularly in ophthalmology. Gene therapy offers transformative potential by directly addressing underlying genetic causes of diseases, with Adverum's focus on ophthalmic conditions potentially offering innovative solutions for unmet medical needs in eye-related disorders. The acquisitions by Novartis and Eli Lilly reflect broader trends within the pharmaceutical industry where companies actively seek to diversify their pipelines through mergers and acquisitions. These transactions emphasize strategic incorporation of advanced biotechnologies such as RNA therapeutics and gene therapy into development portfolios aiming to deliver breakthroughs in patient care.On the regulatory front, Bayer has achieved a milestone with the U.S. FDA approval of Lynkuet (elinzanetant), a nonhormonal medication designed to manage menopause symptoms. This approval represents a significant step forward in providing alternative treatment options to a traditionally hormone-reliant segment, emphasizing the industry's shift towards diversifying therapeutic solutions and addressing unmet medical needs. This move highlights continuous efforts to address women's health issues through new pharmacological interventions.Meanwhile, Merck's Winrevair has received an updated FDA label following successful results from the Phase 3 Zenith trial. This label expansion is anticipated to enhance its market position, potentially propelling Winrevair to blockbuster status. These developments highlight the critical role of rigorous clinical trials in validating drug efficacy and safety, which ultimately influence regulatory decisions and market dynamics.BridgeBio has also made headlines with its successful Phase 3 trial for a rare disease candidate. By demonstrating significant improvements in clinical outcomes and biomarkers, BridgeBio is poised to file for FDA approval. This reflects an increasing focus on precision medicine within the industry, particularly in addressing rare and genetic disorders.In diabetes management news, Innovent and Eli Lilly's mazdutide has outperformed Novo Nordisk's semaglutide in a head-to-head study focused on glucose regulation and weight loss. As a GLP-1/glucagon dual receptor agonist, mazdutide offers broader therapeutic effects, showcasing the competitive landscape in metabolic disorders where novel mechanisms are vying for superiority.Regulatory activities remain pivotal, as demonstrated by Syndax receiving a second indication for its leukemia drug Revuforj. Such expansions underscore the importance of ongoing clinical research and regulatory engagement in maximizing a drug's therapeutic reach.NSupport the show

October 19, 2025 We gathered to reflect on the importance of knowing our identity in Christ and recognizing the enemy's subtle attempts to separate us from it. The discussion emphasized that believers stand secure—without condemnation—in the presence of God, and that understanding this truth leads to peace, confidence, and transformation.We explored how divine truth removes guilt and reveals the depth of God's love, empowering us to share that truth with others. The conversation turned toward gentleness and patience, acknowledging that God's kindness—not force—leads to real change in both ourselves and others. Gentleness, we discussed, is a reflection of Christ's character and a vital quality in spiritual leadership and teaching.We concluded by meditating on God's patience and unconditional love, recognizing that transformation happens not through striving but through resting in His grace. As servants of the Lord, we are called to teach, not strive—to lay aside burdens, walk in imputed righteousness, and let gentleness shape every interaction.Themes:Identity and security in ChristDivine truth that transforms guilt into graceGod's patience and kindness as a model for believersGentleness as strength in spiritual influenceTeaching with humility and loveImputation of Christ's righteousnessRest over striving in ministryReflection Question: How can I reflect God's gentleness and patience more consistently in how I lead, teach, and respond to others?

What really drives long-term growth? Chasing revenue or creating real value? Anthony Petitte is back for the last episode of this week to share how founders can scale smarter by focusing on sustainable value creation! We talk about building a growth playbook that prioritizes operational discipline, high-quality revenue, and customer diversification.

In this episode of Wisdom's Table, I'm excited to continue our theme for October, which I'm calling Money Month. As we dive into the often-taboo topic of finances, I want to address a common reality among Christians: many of us are either silently struggling or secretly striving when it comes to money. Despite our love for God, our tithing, and our prayers for provision, we often find ourselves grappling with the same financial fears and pressures as the world around us. Today, we're exploring five money mindsets every Christian needs to carry. These aren't just fluffy affirmations or prosperity clichés; they are rooted in biblical truth and can transform the way you view your finances. The five pillars we'll discuss are contentment, growth, surrender, generosity, and legacy. These mindsets are essential for building kingdom wealth that not only blesses your family but also has the potential to change the world.   Want more resources?

What if the way back to yourself wasn't through the mind, but through your breath? Hero, Somatic Therapist, and Certified Rolfer Moylan Ryan explains how breath can ground you in the present and become a direct pathway to regulation. Moylan traces the roots of neurodynamic (holotropic) breathwork, explaining why it evokes deep, nonverbal reactions and how the practice supports nervous-system regulation and reconnection to the body. He describes typical responses people have in his breathwork sessions, the importance of safety and containment, and how breathwork can produce an expanded state of consciousness that shifts your thinking and behavior. What You Will Learn[00:06:55] How Neurodynamic breathwork evolved from holotropic work and the role of evocative music in guiding the breath.[00:08:56] Why facilitators ask people to trust the process and surrender so their inner guided intelligence can lead the journey.[00:11:24] That breathwork can allow sensations, tremoring, and vocal expression to surface safely during a session.[00:16:36] How consistent breath practice can move a person from somatic retraction into expansion and an “upflow” of energy.[00:18:00] Why breathwork often lets people complete what was never expressed — releasing embodied remnants of trauma.[00:19:59] The parasympathetic state breathwork can produce, and how it enables a calmer, more present nervous system afterward.[00:24:40] How the gap between stimulus and response (the space Viktor Frankl described) becomes accessible through regulated breath.[00:31:14] What kinds of people tend to benefit — those who feel fragmented, stuck, or ready to create new behaviors and outcomes.Let's Connect!Follow The Healing Heroes on Instagram & LinkedIn.Moylan RyanWebsite | InstagramChandler StroudWebsite | LinkedIn | InstagramMixing and editing provided by Next Day Podcast.

From the publisher: "When Barack Obama won the White House in 2008, becoming the nation's first Black president, the stage was set for Donald Trump's eventual rise to power. Backlash Presidents shows how, throughout American history, administrations that challenge the country's racial status quo are followed by presidents who deal in racially charged politics and presidential lawlessness, culminating in impeachment crises.In this incisive book, Julia Azari traces the connections between racially transformative presidents and their successors, examining the presidencies of Abraham Lincoln and Andrew Johnson, Lyndon Johnson and Richard Nixon, and Obama and Trump. When he signed long-awaited civil rights legislation in 1964, Lyndon Johnson unleashed a perfect political storm that swept Nixon into the White House. Azari demonstrates how Nixon's rhetoric, relationship to Congress, and attitudes about executive power exhibit striking parallels with Andrew Johnson and Trump. She discusses how their actions are linked to race and racialized institutions—the Department of War during Reconstruction, the FBI during the Nixon years, and elections today—and looks at what happens after impeachment, describing how the rush to establish a new order perpetuates many of the same problems as the old.Challenging the conventional wisdom about the role of norms in American democracy, Backlash Presidents reveals how normal presidential politics upholds unsustainable racial hierarchy that in turn gives rise to intense periods of instability."For information on Dr. Azari's book from Princeton University Press, head here Support our show and Reach out and Read of Tampa Bay at https://patreon.com/axelbankhistoryAxelbankHistory.com is designed by https://www.ellieclairedesigns.com/Axelbank Reports History and Today" can be found on social media at https://twitter.com/axelbankhistoryhttps://instagram.com/axelbankhistoryhttps://facebook.com/axelbankhistory

In episode 239 of America Adapts, Doug Parsons revisits his conversation with Dr. Katharine Mach, Professor at the University of Miami's Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Science and a lead author for the IPCC Sixth Assessment Report. Katharine explains the process of drafting that report and how the media both succeeds and fails at communicating its urgency. Doug and Katharine also discussed the need to rethink the role and purpose of the IPCC as it prepares for its next major assessment—especially now, as the Trump administration dismantles the National Climate Assessment and scales back federal climate programs, making the IPCC's global work more important than ever. That makes the IPCC's independent, global work even more vital—providing the scientific foundation the world, and especially the U.S., still needs to understand and respond to climate risk. Transcript available here. Topics covered: IPCC is a grand partnership between the governments of the world. How did the media do in reporting on the IPCC report? The IPCC has zero regulatory authority over sovereign nations. What does it mean to be a lead author for the IPCC. Many developing countries don't have the climate data and experts that developed countries have. How can the IPCC be relevant to adaptation planners in the U.S. Who is the audience for the IPCC report and how do you communicate to different audiences. How can American policymakers make use of the IPCC report. Adaptation education at the University of Miami Key Quotes: “Adaptation isn't a checklist—it's a continuous conversation about what kind of future we want.” “Climate risk is always filtered through inequality.” “Transformative adaptation is about changing the rules of the game, not just moving the pieces.” “Science must learn to listen before it speaks.” Check out the America Adapts Media Kit here!

In January 2026, I'm bringing together a select group of conscious healers, coaches, and lightworkers… and teaching them how to: Tap into the Akashic Field of unconditional wisdom and healing on command Connect to a source of Divine Wisdom that can clear away limiting patterns and beliefs at the speed of light (without YEARS of talk therapy or endless “working on yourself” that doesn't create lasting change) Use the Akashic Records as a tool of QUANTUM HEALING to clear away your own “stuff” (fear, resistance, self-doubt, second-guessing, overthinking, overgiving) so you can confidently show up for your clients – and powerfully help them clear *their* stuff as well Turn on your deepest inner guidance and experience deeper states of flow, connection, and purpose – consistently Become a grounded, confident, effective Akashic Records Practitioner and help your clients get life-changing results, so they keep coming back and referring you to everyone they know If you're feeling the call of the Records – this is never by accident. It's because you have Soul-level work to do with the Akashic Records in this lifetime.  The more drawn you feel to the Records, the more likely it is you're meant to use them to (1) heal yourself and (2) assist others in their process of healing and evolution. The Records have been my steadfast companion, Divine Guide, and powerful compass through life for the past 20 years (I first opened my Records when I was 17). Over these 2 decades, they've helped me transform MAJOR stuff and supported me in aligning fully with my spiritual mission and sacred work in this lifetime. This mission, for me, includes making the Akashic Records an accessible and potent Divine tool – actually, a way of life – for healers, lightworkers, and spiritual seekers. This is why I created a one-of-a-kind, immersive Certification Program where we go deeply into the Akasha together.  I'll teach you everything you must know to effectively connect to the Records and use them as a tool of insight and healing not just for yourself, but for the people you're here to serve. The length and depth of this Certification – plus my commitment to offering you an unparalleled level of personal mentorship – enable each student to have a transformative experience and go on a journey of discovery about how you're meant to use the Akashic Records in this lifetime, to heal yourself and others. In our live meetings, there will be time to ask questions, do healing work together, and share your experiences in the Records. You'll also have ample time between meetings to practice the techniques and tools I'll be teaching you – and to connect with fellow students to exchange readings. I offer personalized feedback on all assignments, so you feel supported every step of the way. Interested in joining us?
