It is easy to assume that we know ourselves. After all, who could be more familiar with me than, well, me? But contemplation teaches us that there are many layers to the self, some superficial, but others so hidden from us that only God can know us at these extraordinary depths. Enter an exploration in this episode with guidance from St. Augustine and the wisdom teachings of Jesus to discover your True Self. 7-day meditation retreat (September 30th - October 7th) 3-day meditation retreat (December 11th-13th)

Join us (Dr. Henry Emmons and Dr. Aimee Prasek) for a conversation about awe and authenticity. This is also the beginning of a month-long focus here at the podcast on how to uncover your authentic self. In this first episode, we'll highlight three big obstacles to authenticity. The first is the creation and impacts of a 'false self,' often developed during adolescence and driven by the need to satisfy external pressures. The second is an externally-focused search for the self that if we don't course-correct, always results in an exhausting and endless external search for the self. The last obstacle is that we tend to make this search for our true self into a big, complicated, spiritual pursuit of enlightenment. Instead, we see living authentically as a continuous, ordinary process, integral to achieving joy and contentment. Be sure to listen in for next episode as we dive deeper into authenticity.

In this third installment of my "DharmaByte" column and "UnMind" podcast, exploring the general subject of Zen in our Times, we turn to the last of three suggested topics from Hokai Jeff Harper, Halifax-based publisher of the STO newsletter: • To everything there is a season• The wax and wane of householder zazen practice• What we are feeling right now IS impermanence manifesting itself Hokai somehow managed, perhaps unintentionally, to progressively home in on the central experience of Zen on three levels. Starting with the most universal sphere of our experience on Earth, the seasonality that is an effect of orbiting the sun for approximately 365 rotations of the planet; then down to the social sphere of our practice as householders; and finally into the realm of the intimate, up-close-and-personal sphere of consciousness itself. What I call the "singularity of Zen." As I mentioned in the last segment, we often seem to labor under a misconception that because we follow the lifestyle of householders, we cannot hope to penetrate to the fundamental meaning of the teachings of Buddhism. But Hokai's assertion puts the lie to this assumption. If the Dharma is simply pointing at the present reality that we are experiencing, lifestyle choices cannot possibly have a determinative or dispositive, causal relationship in terms of coming to realization of our buddha mind. What we are feeling now is impermanence manifesting itself, to quote the above quote. Not only what we are feeling now, but what we are seeing and hearing, smelling and tasting, as well as what we are thinking. Or reading, if you are reading this rather than listening to the podcast version. You might quibble with Hokai's construction - "impermanence manifesting itself" - as it suggests that "impermanence" is some sort of independent force capable of manifesting itself, rather than an attribute of the changing nature of the universe. But let's not let mere semantics distract from the message. We are witnessing the "endless, unremitting, unnamable, unthinkable buddha-dharma," as Master Dogen expressed it; and we bear witness to IT mainly through the dynamic of change, or impermanence. Otherwise, we would not register seeing, hearing, smelling, tasting, touching, or even thinking, at all. If nothing were changing, there could be no awareness of it. As I mentioned in the segment on householder practice, renunciation in Zen is a matter of seeing through the delusional aspect of living, not a matter of lifestyle. Discernment in Zen is like Sri Ramakrishna's analogy that, like a swan, we need to be able to drink milk mixed with water, and drink only the milk. Or as Master Tozan analogized: A silver bowl filled with snow A heron hidden in the moonTaken as similar, they are not the sameNot distinguished, their places are known So this refined awareness of the nondual nature of reality, termed "emptiness," as opposed to "form" or appearance, is so close to ordinary reality, or perceptual duality, that it is nearly indistinguishable — like white snow in a silver bowl, or a white heron and the full moon — white on white. Buddha taught that the discriminating mind imposes a "false stillness" on reality, tamping down the uninhibited flow of sensory data to a dull roar. This enables us to maintain our balance and negotiate a dynamic, 4-dimensional spacetime environment.This is part of the natural process of "individuation" that sets in once we are born, and culminates in the conception of the independent self, which is a fundamental category error, according to Buddhism. The original alienation that is our fall from grace. It is not that Buddhism claims there is no self whatever. There is a constructed self, and there is a true self, according to this model. The prevalent perception of separation as an incarnated being is not entirely delusional. But it is incomplete — reification of a separate self ignores the rest of the story, the fact that all beings are interconnected, co-arisen and co-dependent. The Twelvefold Chain of Interdependent Arising, attributed to Shakyamuni, parses this coming-of-age story, slicing and dicing stages of development finely, like an Italian chef shaving garlic with a razorblade. This is similar to Master Dogen's fine discernment of reality — from a perspective uniting space, or existence, and time — as articulated in Uji—Being-Time, explored in some detail in a prior podcast. What he referred to as the "fine mind of Nirvana," or the "subtle mind of Nirvana." Master Sengcan, third Chinese patriarch after Bodhidharma and his successor Huike, points to something similar in Hsinhsinming—Trust in Mind: In this world of Suchness there is neither self nor other-than-selfTo come into harmony with this realityJust simply say when doubt arises: "not two"In this "not two" nothing is separate nothing is excludedNo matter when or where Enlightenment means entering this truthAnd this truth is beyond extension or diminution in time or spaceIn it a single thought is ten thousand years Believing in the fundamental bifurcation of consciousness into self-and-other, body versus mind — the "Cartesian error" — is resolved in realizing that "you can't have one without the other," or as the more contemporary trope would have it, "both things can be true at the same time." "Neither-self-nor-other-than-self" indicates the True Self of Buddhism, undivided from the very beginning. "Not-two" is the mantra we conjure whenever any doubt about this arises. At the risk of repeating myself — with the caveat that these teachings bear repetition, especially in changing contexts — the last stanza returns us to the singularity of Zen: No matter when or whereEnlightenment means entering this truthAnd this truth is beyond extension or diminution in time or spaceIn it a single thought is ten thousand years The last line of which Matsuoka-roshi would encapsulate as "The eternal moment." So it all comes down to this. Like a fish-trap, reality ensnares us in its wide reach, and as we pursue our own realization — which, after all, is, or should be, our birthright — we find the trap narrowing again and again, until there is no escape, no turning back; like the exhausted swimmer at the halfway point, it is just as far, and equally risky, to try to make it back safely to shore as it is to continue swimming to the island. If we persevere, finally finding ourselves on the "other shore," we can see clearly that we have been seeing things all wrong, all along. There never has been a separate self to embody, let alone to defend against all comers, let alone any existential annihilation. In the not-two nonduality of Zen's reality, it was all like a bad dream, one that we essentially made up — with a little help from our friends and family, of course, not to mention the entire world of benighted people who fear death and, consequently, life. This is not to insist that everyone else is wrong about everything, and that only I and my like-minded friends from the enchanted land of Zen have the inside track. In one sense, it must be true that everyone has a hunch about this — an inkling that something is missing — and that that something is worth knowing. Otherwise we would probably all commit mass suicide, in despair. Which is exactly what it looks like we are doing, with an assist from the stewards, elected or not, of our commonweal. Can anyone say "lemmings"? But Buddhism never seemed to show much concern about the survival of the species. Celibacy is the quickest way to bring down the curtain on humanity - simply not giving birth to the next generation. Of course, the coterie of those who abjure bearing children is not likely to ever encompass a majority of the population, so that kind of extinction is not going to happen. No, it is more likely that Mother Nature's balancing act will bring about the demise of humanity owing to our disruption of her sphere of influence, so carefully nurtured to bring the miracle of life to the planet in the first place, as the goddess Gaia: In Greek mythology, Gaia is the personification of the Earth and a primordial goddess, one of the first deities to emerge from Chaos. She is often referred to as Mother Earth and is considered the mother of all life. And life itself is "fleeting as an arrow" according to Buddha. What we are feeling in the present is this fleeting moment, our life passing before our very eyes, ears, nose, tongue, body and mind in a vast network of frequencies in polyrhythmic synchrony. Our heartbeat is our metronome, the rise and fall of the breathing our connection to the thin atmospheric blanket embracing the earth. On a personal basis, there is no time to waste in foolish pursuits, as the sage Jianzhi Sengcan reminds us in Hsinhsinming: Waste no time in doubts and arguments that have nothing to do with this A century later, Master Sekito Kisen says it another way, in Sandokai: I respectfully urge you who study the Mysterydo not pass your days and nights in vain So Hokai does us a great service to remind us of the evanescence of spacetime in the personal realm, embedded in our social context as householders, surrounded by the world of Nature both nurturing and threatening us, finally floating in the constancy of the universal. Let Tozan Ryokai have the last word on it, after yet another century, from his Hokyo Zammai: Within causes and conditions time and season it is serene and illuminating
So minute it enters where there is no gap so vast it transcends dimensionA hairsbreadth deviation and you are out of tune It seems that all three of the great Ch'an masters are speaking with one voice, urging us to pay attention. There is not so much to their Buddhism after all, as one sage commented upon the occasion of his insight. So Hokai's assertion that what we are feeling right now IS impermanence manifesting itself is subject to Master Dogen's repeat comment: "All things are like this." Not only what we are feeling right now — but what we are seeing and hearing, smelling and tasting and yes, even what we are thinking right now — is, in one sense, impermanence. It is not only in front of your face, it is also behind your face, penetrating your hearing with no boundary, in and out through your nose and mouth (and other orifices), and enveloping your body outside and inside, clean and clear through your original mind. Tozan says, with stunning nonchalance, earlier in the poem: You are not IT — but in truth IT is you Buddha is attributed with saying something like — that there is impermanence means that there is permanence. And his followers were overjoyed to hear that. What made them so happy? Again recalling Hsinhsinming—Trust in Mind: Change appearing to occur in the empty world we call real —only because of our ignorance So the nondual version of this insight is that IT is both changing and staying the same at the same time. This should bring about a great sigh of relief in all who realize it.

 Former barrister turned philosopher and writer, Aedamar Kirrane experienced a spontaneous mystical awakening that began in 2015 and continues to unfold. Unable to find any support or understanding within her own Christian tradition she embarked on a deep enquiry to understand the inner dynamics and telos of awakening. She came to believe in life as an original blessing rather than the doctrine of original sin that she thinks has destroyed our sense of ourselves as sacred beings. Her spiritual autobiography is Light on Fire: Waking Up to Divine Love, published 2021. Through ongoing reflection and curiosity she has developed her own threefold mystical cosmology that understands creation in the pattern of exodus and return; that recognises all of life as sacred, described through the concept of panentheism; and that the purpose of human life is deification or the return to our divine state while still in human form. All this is set within the context of the Great Awakening we are living through now, of which the human experience is a micro version. She has come to recognise that spontaneity is characteristic of the human experience of an evolutionary shift in consciousness. Aedamar's awakening is mediated through her mystical and spiritual writing and she recognises sacred writing as its own spiritual path that she calls The Via Scriptoria. Aedamar's visions are published on aedamarkirrane.com. She blogs at The New Scriptorium. Aedamar will be opening a wisdom school called "The Mystical Birth of the True Self" in September. It will be a nine month programme to support awakening to our inner divinity. If you would like to be notified when it is formally announced please visit her website to sign up for her newsletter or sign up here. Discussion of this interview in the BatGap Community Facebook Group Interview recorded June 21, 2025

Many of us carry a deep, often hidden sense that we're not enough, rooted in shame, comparison, and striving for approval. This message explores how shame distorts our identity, leading us to live from a “false self” built on image, achievement, or performance. Drawing from Scripture, especially Paul's prayer in Ephesians 3, we're reminded that true freedom and identity come not from trying harder or doing more, but from deeply experiencing the unconditional love of Christ.

In this week's edition of Shed and Shine, we invite you to stop measuring life in dollars and start measuring it in energy. Gino Wickman introduces a simple but powerful practice: identify the most draining activity in your week and replace it with one that lifts you up. Whether it's in your work, family life, or friendships, the goal is to trade heaviness for lightness.By shedding low-energy habits and choosing what fuels your vibration, you align with your True Self. Gino challenges you to make one swap this week, then keep returning to this practice over time. It's not about perfection; it's about learning to listen to your energy and building a life that feeds your spirit. When you live from high energy, you don't just get more done—you shine brighter in everything you do. 00:00 Introduction to Energy Management01:19 Understanding Energy and Vibration02:02 Identifying Low Energy Activities at Work03:39 Low Energy Activities in Personal Life04:49 Family Interactions and Energy Drain05:39 Evaluating Friendships and Energy Levels06:28 Choosing the Most Draining Activity07:30 Shifting to High Energy Activities08:45 Making the Swap: Low to High Energy ABOUT THE 10 DISCIPLINESThe 10 Disciplines, founded by Gino Wickman and Rob Dube, is on a mission to help one million entrepreneurs - possible to be driven and have peace while making a bigger impact.

Motherhood can be beautiful — and also deeply disorienting. So many moms experience a sense of loss of self in the transition into motherhood and struggle to reconnect with who they are in this new season of life. This week, licensed professional counselor Rachael Smith joins Emily for an empowering conversation on how moms can reconnect with themselves after having kids.In the episode, they talk about:Why so many moms feel lost or disconnected from themselves postpartumThe myth of "bouncing back" and what true healing looks likeWhat it really means to rediscover your authentic self as a momHow self-awareness can be a catalyst for reclaiming joy and purposeWhy short-term and long-term self-care both matter (and how to actually make time for them!)Whether you're deep in the newborn fog or several years into parenting, this episode will remind you that you're not alone — and that it's not only okay, but necessary, to take up space for yourself.

Let's talk about the part of life we so often avoid - the uncertain, the unplanned, the uncomfortable... the unknown. While the unknown can feel unsettling, stir up every part of us that craves certainty, safety and control…   The truth is.. It's only when we step into the unknown whole-heartedly, that we can experience growth, expansion, something new, and more aligned with who we are. For the most profound transformation happens when we're willing to embrace the unknown.   In today's episode on I Love Me The Podcast, I'll be guiding you into a deeper relationship with the unknown - helping you see why it's not only safe to lean in, but essential for your growth, your joy, and the beautiful life you are here to live.   So, let's breathe together, soften our grip on certainty… and step with open hearts into the vastness of possibility.   Take a peek at the full episode show notes (and resources I refer to in the show) here:   https://gettingnaked.com.au/2025/06/25/ep-62-leaning-into-the-unknown-where-life-truely-begins/   About me…   My name is Tamra Mercieca and I've been studying and teaching self-love worldwide for 20+ years now. In 2011 I launched my online school Getting Naked where I offer programs to help people strip off the stories and childhood conditioning, so they can fall in love with themselves.   While I go by many labels - mumma, wife, tea lover, drummer - professionally I'm known as a Self-Love Therapist, Writer and Women's Pelvic Health Guide, qualified in over a dozen physical and mental health modalities. I'm the author of two books, have been published in dozens of print and online publications, appeared on TV many times, and love to share the teachings of self-love at yoga and spirituality festivals.   Personally, my journey began when I worked out how to overcome suicidal depression and anxiety (and get off my meds). I then went on to create a ten-session program where I now help others do the same.

In this ongoing podcast series, I interview Akashic Records Practitioners to explore how working with the Akashic Records has transformed their lives. We discuss topics such as: what it means to "hear the call of the Records" (and answer that call) the vast healing, personal evolution, and growth that happens when we activate the energy of the Akashic Records in our lives how the Akashic Records can help us fully awaken our intuitive, multidimensional, and healing gifts - both for ourselves and to serve others how tapping into the Akashic field can help us release outdated, long-standing patterns, beliefs, and attachments that aren't serving us the Akashic Records as a potent tool for psychospiritual development and to align fully with your highest purpose as a healer or lightworker   In this episode, I speak with Gretchen Hill, a certified Akashic Records Master Practitioner (through Josephine's certification program) and Transformational Coach who guides women entrepreneurs and professionals to break free from generational money blocks and reconnect with their True Self. After surviving a near-death car accident, Gretchen experienced a profound awakening that led her to leave a long-term marriage and a 22-year career in higher education. She discovered her Soul's purpose: to help women heal inherited money patterns rooted in ancestral trauma and scarcity. Gretchen's personal journey revealed deep, lineage-based beliefs—passed down through her Jewish ancestry—that kept her stuck in survival mode. Through forgiveness, ancestral healing, and intuitive guidance, she transformed her own story and now empowers others to do the same. Gretchen created the Multi-Generational Money Map™, a unique methodology that helps clients trace and release old money narratives, replacing them with abundant, soul-aligned beliefs. With advanced training in therapeutic modalities, including Internal Family Systems, CBT, Reiki, and psychosynthesis, she brings over a decade of experience in career counseling and a rich academic background in mental health and cultural geography.

Dr. Roxanne Howe Murphy, an eminent figure in the field of coaching and personality assessment, captivates listeners as she articulates the transformative principles encapsulated within the Enneagram framework. With a rich tapestry of personal anecdotes and professional insights, she delves into the essence of human potential, urging individuals to recognize the latent capabilities residing within themselves. The podcast serves as a platform for Dr. Murphy to share her experiences—from her humble beginnings in the Midwest to becoming a global thought leader—illustrating how her journey has shaped her understanding of personal transformation.

As the conversation unfolds, Dr. Murphy also addresses the challenges of navigating life's complexities, offering wisdom on coping with adversity and embracing change. Her personal anecdotes serve as a reminder that resilience and adaptability are integral to the human experience.

Many of us are so busy keeping up with life, that we forget to check in with ourselves. We follow the rules, meet expectations and strive for success – yet still feel disconnected, stuck or unfulfilled. True purpose can feel elusive, like something we're always searching for but never quite finding.   This week, I'm joined by Kirsty Gallagher to explore how reconnecting with who you truly are can lead to a life of greater meaning, alignment, and joy. Kirsty is a renowned meditation and yoga teacher, a spiritual coach, and Sunday Times bestselling author of several books - including her latest, Your Cosmic Purpose.   In our conversation, we discuss: Why your true purpose is to be yourself, not to chase status, success or approval How to start listening to your own truth, even if you've spent a lifetime tuning in to everyone else's Why spending time in stillness is so important The role of discomfort and “internal conflict” as signs you're out of alignment Why trusting the timing of your life is essential and how your most painful experiences may be guiding you to greater clarity and purpose The importance of celebrating your progress How to reclaim your power by learning to make conscious, intentional choices - even when you are unable to change your external circumstances Throughout this conversation, Kirsty shares stories from her own journey, from corporate burnout to spiritual awakening, and offers practical tools to help you reconnect with the part of you that already knows the way.    This conversation may feel a little different from others I have had on this podcast. It leans more into the emotional and spiritual aspects of health and healing, but if you listen with an open heart and mind, I truly believe there is something in it for everyone.    At its core, it's a powerful reminder that you are the expert of your own life. Your truth matters. Your voice matters. And your purpose, however small or quiet it may seem right now, is already within you. Support the podcast and enjoy Ad-Free episodes.

Wake Up to Your True Self   What if the biggest myth of self-improvement is that something about you is broken? In this episode of Richer Soul, we reconnect with spiritual guide and author Don Joseph Goewey, who shares powerful insights from the timeless work of Anthony De Mello — a man whose teachings remain profoundly relevant in our chaotic modern world. Don returns with an exciting update: a beautifully crafted awareness deck designed to distill De Mello's wisdom into bite-sized, transformative prompts. This episode is a wake-up call — not to become someone else, but to awaken to the magnificence of who you already are.   Key Takeaways:  “You Are Not Broken” – De Mello's radical message flips the script on self-help. There's nothing wrong with you — only layers of illusion to peel away. Soundbites of Spirituality – Don shares how Anthony De Mello mastered impactful, tweet-sized wisdom decades before social media existed. Awareness Over Achievement – True transformation doesn't come from fixing but from seeing — becoming conscious of your inner narratives and breaking free. Legacy of Light – Don discusses how the DeMello Spirituality Center is digitizing and revitalizing Anthony's archives, bringing life-changing messages to a new generation.   Money Learnings: While this episode is less focused on finance, it tackles one of the greatest blocks to wealth: internal misalignment. If you believe you're broken, you'll sabotage wealth, relationships, and joy. De Mello's teachings can shift your mindset from scarcity to sufficiency — a necessary precursor to financial freedom.   About Don Joseph Goewey: Don is the Executive Director of the Center for Spiritual Exchange, which manages Anthony De Mello's archives. His work spans neuroscience, spiritual psychology, and leading psycho-spiritual approaches to trauma. Don has served in high-stress environments — from refugee camps to hospital wards — helping people reclaim inner peace. He's the author of The End of Stress and continues to guide others in awakening through De Mello's work.   Key Discussion Points: The origin and mission of the DeMello Spirituality Center. Anthony De Mello's core message: awakening, not fixing. Why De Mello's book Awareness remains a bestseller decades later. How the new Awareness Deck distills spiritual truths into daily prompts. The problem with most self-help: it reinforces the idea you're broken. Using soundbites to elevate consciousness. The impact of post-COVID awareness shifts. Embracing spirituality as a practice of presence, not performance.   Conclusion:  Pause the pursuit: Stop trying to fix yourself and start observing your internal stories. Pick up the deck: Use the De Mello Awareness Deck for a daily dose of spiritual clarity. Practice presence: Set aside 5 minutes a day to notice your thoughts without judgment. Question your programming: Ask, “Who told me I'm not enough?” and gently let go.   Links: https://www.demellospirituality.com/  https://www.facebook.com/DeMelloSpiritualityCenter/  https://www.instagram.com/demellocenter/  https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCF75vH8BezBDgvCfFi_EfJA  https://x.com/DeMelloCenter   Previous 2 episodes: Ep 443: The Power of Gratitude with Don Williams https://richersoul.com/ep-443-the-power-of-gratitude-with-don-williams/   Ep 444 Remember Who You Are: A Journey  to Spiritual Awakening with Sophia West https://richersoul.com/ep-444-remember-who-you-are-a-journey-to-spiritual-awakening-with-sophia-west/      Watch the full episode on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@richersoul Richer Soul Life Beyond Money.

What if you could stop achieving your way into feeling worthy—and simply be enough as you are? Meet Melissa Arnot Reid / @melissaarnot — the first American woman to summit and descend Mount Everest without supplemental oxygen. But this conversation isn't about records. It's about the inner Everest we all face. Melissa reveals how a life of achievement masked wounds of not-enoughness, and how the journey of healing—not summiting—became her most important climb. We discuss shame, self-forgiveness, parenting, and the quiet power of curiosity. This is a raw and rare look at what it means to shift from proving your worth to simply knowing it.   **** ✨ Personal Socrates is on SALE! >>> Use UPGRADE20 at baronfig.com for 20% off through May and June.    Release details for the NEW BOOK.   Connect with Marc >>>  Website | LinkedIn | Instagram | Drop a review and let me know what resonates with you about the show!

Healing doesn't come from fixing yourself.It comes from understanding yourself.Not just the polished parts but the scared ones, the striving ones, the parts we hide to survive.This week's guest, Sarah Jones, is a storyteller, artist, and activist known for her fearless exploration of identity. But this conversation isn't just about identity in the outer world, it's about the stories we carry inside, and the compassion it takes to hold them with care.Raised in a racially and culturally mixed household, Sarah unpacks what it means to belong to many worlds and sometimes feel at home in none. Through humor, vulnerability, and incredible emotional depth, she shares how the practice of Internal Family Systems (IFS) helped her name, understand, and begin to heal her inner landscape.We explore:Why perfectionism is often just pain in disguiseWhat it means to live with “multiple parts” and how to listen to themThe link between emotional safety and self-worthHow addiction, self-abandonment, and survival can mask our basic goodnessAnd the healing power of play, creativity, and radical curiositySarah reminds us that real self-love isn't about declarations it's about attention. Tending to the parts of us that didn't get to speak, and learning to meet them with kindness.Love,Sarah Ann

From housewife to the co-founder of a billion-dollar company, I know intimately what it means to face fear, self-doubt, and that nagging voice inside that says you're not enough. That's why I'm thrilled to share my conversation with Radhi Devlukia-Shetty on this episode of Women of Impact. With her blend of heart, honesty, and hard-won wisdom, Radhi opens up about her journey—growing up heavyset, navigating body image in a world obsessed with “skinny,” and breaking free from external validation through meditation, journaling, and radical self-discovery. She reveals how leaving home and starting over in a new country forced her to face her fears head-on, and how she built a relationship with herself step-by-step. From conscious cooking to confronting the discomfort of leading in business, Radhi's story is a roadmap for any woman wants to find her strength—not in spite of her vulnerabilities, but because of them.

You get to define "small" and you get to choose the size and quality of your life. The point is to craft a way of being that allows you feel safe, at home, and joyful in your body and life.I talk about why we need to do the inner and outer work at the same time. The inner work might include things like getting to know your True self, learning a practice of self-compassion, building skills to support naming and honouring your boundaries, and so on. The outer work is what I offer in my Life Visioning Course. It creates the gentle structure or scaffolding of your life that supports your inner work. Or that supports you in being your True Self and thriving, flourishing, or showing up fully to life in each new season.So many people assume they are "wrong" somehow if they try to change their old patterns but struggle to maintain the healthier changes. The reality though is that very often they are attempting to create positive change WITHOUT the supporting structures. And this sets them up for discouragement and giving up.My work offers you the inner and outer work of learning to truly love and value yourself alongside the systems, rhythms, practices and habits that create the scaffolding of a sustainable and soul-honouring life.The Life Visioning Process - take the course*: The Life Visioning Course (reg $790): $490 June Only | A Life In Progress*for a limited time, you can get teh course FREE when you join the B+B Community for a full year!

In this episode of Shed and Shine, Gino Wickman and Rob Dube break down the art of delegation—why it's so hard, why it's so necessary, and how to master it. Entrepreneurs often struggle with letting go, believing it's easier or faster to do everything themselves. But Gino and Rob argue that real growth comes from delegating and elevating—focusing on what you do best while empowering others to take on meaningful responsibilities.They explore the common pitfalls of delegation, from picking the wrong person to not fully letting go, and share a simple but powerful three-step process: choose the right person, teach them well, and step back. Whether you're a visionary looking for an integrator or simply trying to reclaim your time, this episode is packed with actionable insights to help you let go and level up.
