Take a few minutes to reflect on someone who inspires you, and how you can embody the values you admire in them.You can also listen to this episode in Spanish here: https://tinyurl.com/4rjmambmHow To Do This Practice: Find a quiet moment and settle your body: Sit or stand somewhere you feel safe and comfortable. Take a few slow breaths and let your body soften, releasing the noise of the day. Bring to mind someone who embodies “moral beauty”: Think of a person whose kindness, courage, humility, or integrity has genuinely inspired you. Choose one specific moment when their character moved you. Visualize an act that inspired you: Recall exactly what the person did. Picture the scene, their actions, their choices. Notice why this moment stood out as meaningful or brave or good. Notice how your body responds: As you hold this image, tune into your body: warmth, openness, tenderness, or even tears. Allow yourself to feel the emotional impact of their moral beauty. Reflect on why this matters to you: Ask yourself: What does this moment reveal about the values that matter most to me? What purpose does it awaken? What did this person teach me about how I want to live? Choose one small aligned action for today: Identify one thing you can do—big or small—that expresses the value or purpose this person embodies. Carry that intention with you into the rest of your day.

If you ask someone with aphantasia to visualize an apple, a tree, or the house they grew up in, their mind draws a blank. Literally. The inability to conjure up mental images was discovered in the 1880s but only recently has been given a name and become the subject of more serious study. Aphantasia is found in approximately one percent of the population and can also affect the ability to recall sounds, touch and the sensation of movement. Some aphantasics experience their condition as a loss, while others say the freedom from being bound by visual memory allows them to live fully in the present. We listen back to our conversation about aphantasia and what it tells us about how our brains perceive and remember. Guests: Larissa MacFarquhar, staff writer for The New Yorker, her most recent article is titled "Some People Can't See Mental Images. The Consequences Are Profound" Tom Ebeyer, founder, Aphantasia Network Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Andrew Humberman BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Andrew Huberman, the Stanford neuroscientist behind the worlds top health podcast, dropped a bombshell episode on December 18 with his Huberman Lab Essentials series titled How to Set and Achieve Goals, breaking down dopamine driven motivation, visualization tricks like picturing failure to boost focus, and a space time bridging protocol for long range wins, as detailed on hubermanlab.com and YouTube. The Malaysian Reserve hailed it as groundbreaking, while Mens Journal spotlighted his three minute visual focus drill to hack your brain for success on December 19. Buzz exploded further with PR Newswire and WV News reporting on December 17 and 18 about his Punk Rock Sober podcast chat with a nine year old kid, a rare multigenerational deep dive that redefined norms in a sea of expert only talks, potentially marking a fresh biographical pivot toward accessible youth education. No public appearances or business deals surfaced in the last few days, but his upcoming Protocols book preorder dominates the Huberman Lab site, promising nervous system rewiring tools amid glowing fan testimonials calling him Nobel worthy. Social media hummed with newsletter signups topping one million subscribers and iHeart podcast charts, though unconfirmed whispers of a December 16 YouTube review on light exposure linger without direct Huberman involvement. Older drops like the December 15 mitochondria chat with Dr. Martin Picard fade against these goal setting hits, underscoring his grip on everyday neuroscience that could shape bios forever.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI

In this episode, I'm walking you through one of my favorite exercises from my recent retreat in Thailand — a guided visualization where you go meet the 2026 version of you who's already living abroad, running a grounded and spacious business, and actually feeling the life you've been planning.We're stepping out of strategy mode and into identity. Because you can have all the plans in the world, but if you don't believe you can hold the life you want… you'll sabotage it without even realizing it.Here's what we do together in the episode:• You'll take a 5-minute guided visit to your future self — their home, their energy, their lifestyle, and the message they have for you right now. • We'll unpack what came up (even if it felt random or surprising) and what it reveals about who you're becoming. • And finally, we'll get clear on one simple, brave action you can take today to close the gap between you and the 2026 version of you who's already living this life abroad.This is the perfect end-of-year moment to meet your future self — and start becoming them now, not someday.Subscribe and ReviewIf you loved this episode, please take a moment to subscribe and leave a review on Apple Podcasts!

Faith requires belief without doubt and the ability to see God's promises before they manifest. Jesus teaches that when we speak in faith and truly believe in our hearts, we can receive what we ask for, but doubt blocks that process. Abraham is the example of this principle: despite impossible natural circumstances, he stayed strong in faith by calling himself what God promised he would be and visualizing the outcome. In the same way, we must speak, believe, and visualize what God has placed in our hearts, refusing to be moved by present conditions. By staying fully persuaded that God is able to perform what He promised, we position ourselves to receive what He has already spoken over our lives.

Does looking at your bank balance or holiday shopping list trigger a immediate knot of panic in your chest?. You are not alone.In the middle of December, we are often bombarded with the message that "love equals spending," which triggers deep financial scarcity and unworthiness wounds.

"I release the need to buy approval." "I am enough exactly as I am right now."

Hello to you listening in Perry County, Pennsylvania!Coming to you from Whidbey Island Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds for Motivate Your Monday, and your host Diane Wyzga.  Imagine yourself talking with a very good friend and telling them a story about something that happened in your day. Imagine them listening with energy and delight. It helps  you and your story to bloom, right? Your creative energy flows.Now, imagine yourself telling the same story to someone who really can't be bothered to take the time or be interested in you or what you have to share. When we feel unsafe, judged or misunderstood our creative energy stops.Sometimes we end up standing in our own way by coming up against our fears that we have nothing worthwhile to say, to produce, to express. Our creativity stops.  Practical Tip: When you come up against fearful feelings blocking your creativity imagine yourself back with your delighted friend. Visualize yourself basking in the warm glow of their delight, support, encouragement. Imagine that this feeling is all about protective love and energy for you and what you have to offer the waiting world. Now, let go of what's holding you back, and create your good work!You're always welcome: "Come for the stories - Stay for the magic!"

Picture this: you're sitting in your studio apartment, cat box hasn't been changed in two weeks, no food in the fridge, and you're staring at a vision board covered with mansions and dream cars. That massive gap between where you are and where you want to be? It's not inspiring you. It's making you feel like a loser. Research shows that when you only visualize the endgame, it's actually demotivating. Your brain sees that distance and starts the negative self-talk spiral. Mel gets brutally specific here, breaking down exactly why that gorgeous collage you made after a bottle of wine isn't doing what you thought it would.Here's where it gets good. Mel teaches you to visualize the bridge, not the destination. And not the pretty parts of the bridge either. The horrible stuff. What's it like at mile 13 of your marathon when it's sleeting rain and you're asking yourself why you're doing this? What happens when your earbuds die at mile 12 or your shoelace breaks at mile 17 and you've got a blood blister forming? If you're building a business, visualize making those cold calls and hearing no. Visualize staying home on Saturday night while your friends are out, because you're putting in the work. Visualize your first course failing. When you train your mind and nervous system for the actual hard work, you're not blindsided when it shows up. You've already mentally pushed through it. You're building resilience like a muscle, preparing your body so you're not resistant when difficulty comes. That's how you actually do the work instead of just dreaming about the results.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

In this Clinician's Corner episode, Clarissa and Molly dive into what they lovingly (and accurately) call the "Hella-Days"—that stretch from early fall through New Year's where routines disappear, food is everywhere, emotions are high, and nervous systems are fried. Together, they unpack why this season is so activating for people with food addiction and nervous system sensitivity, and how to navigate it with values, boundaries, and a whole lot of self-compassion—whether you're surrounded by family or spending the holidays on your own. In This Episode Clarissa & Molly explore: Why the holidays can feel like the "Holiday Hunger Games" and "12 Days of Dysregulation" How the nervous system responds to the build-up from September to New Year's Using values as your North Star for holiday decisions Boundary tools and scripts for parties, family gatherings, and food pushers Why holiday food environments are an "engineered stressor" (hello, peppermint-everything marketing) Strategies for: Going to events without abandoning your recovery Deciding when not to go Coping with loneliness, isolation, and dark evenings Harm reduction during high-exposure events ("good, better, best" thinking) How to re-imagine your holiday story over time instead of chasing perfection Ideas for folks who love the holidays (Clarissmas) and folks who… don't (Molly

In this episode of Student of Life, we unpack why heroic leadership leads to burnout and chaos — and how clarity, systems thinking, and simple rhythms can transform how teams work and thrive.Student of Life Guide — “Beyond Heroic Leadership”Heroic leadership feels sacrificial, but it's actually a symptom of an unhealthy system. Sustainable teams are built through clarity, shared responsibility, and simple rhythms that enable flow and reduce chaos.3 Big InsightsIf everything depends on a few people, the system is broken.Clarity is a gift — it frees people to contribute without burnout.Healthy leadership slows things down, simplifies work, and amplifies early signals.Reflection QuestionsWhere am I carrying more than I should because the system isn't clear?What's one area my team depends on me too much?How can I simplify or visualize our workflow this week?Next Step (Application)Pick one workflow, meeting, or ministry process. Visualize it. Clarify it. Improve it.Small clarity today prevents heroic rescue tomorrow.Anchor Thought:“Heroic leadership saves the day. Healthy leadership builds a system so the day doesn't need saving.”

Pressure, perfectionism, and overthinking—three traits that quietly sabotage golfers chasing freedom on the course. In this conversation, Andrew Reynolds, cognitive performance coach and founder of The COG Coach, breaks down what it truly means to play with freedom—and why most golfers never achieve it. He shares how to design practice that mirrors real pressure, add consequence to every rep, and build process-driven routines that hold up when the stakes rise. We explore the hidden cost of mental fatigue, how to protect cognitive energy over 18 holes, and the psychological "skill-development lag" that frustrates so many golfers chasing progress. Andrew also explains the three-step framework to reframe destructive self-talk, find safety in discomfort, and make your best golf automatic under pressure—whether you're grinding for your first club championship or a tour card. In this episode, you'll learn: What "playing with freedom" actually means—and how to create it on demand How to add consequence to practice so it transfers under pressure The accountability hacks that keep you in the hard reps (where skill grows) A simple blueprint for durable pre-shot and pre-round routines How to spot and reframe irrational self-talk in real time Managing cognitive energy and decision fatigue across 18 holes Why process beats results—and how to believe it when scores matter Get your pencils ready and start listening.  P.S.

Add consequence: Games with "must-complete" tasks (e.g., 3 fairways in a row) simulate tournament feels. Quality beats quantity: Short, intense, focused sessions > marathon ball-beating. Protect cognitive energy: Strong routines reduce decision fatigue and steady your state under stress. Reframe the story: Emotions come from interpretation; catch absolutes ("always/never") and replace them with rational truth. Calibrate emotion: Even "negative" emotions can be adaptive when properly dialed. Detach from score: Commit to the shot in front of you; outcome improves as a byproduct. Key Quotes: "Make practice look like the golf course, not the course look like practice." "Consequence is the fastest way to simulate pressure." "The hard, uncomfortable reps are where skill is actually built." "Pick a target, visualize, commit—that's the billboard I'd put on every tee." "It's not the first tee that makes you anxious; it's the story you tell yourself about it." "Process is part of outcome—not something separate from it." "There's a skill-development lag: keep going through it instead of restarting with a new method."

A video post!The Miro board used in the video can be accessed here:https://miro.com/app/board/uXjVJi6NCs8=/?share_link_id=616280785572(PS: Miro, I'd love another sweatshirt!)This framework explains why tools help in some situations and fail in others by grounding everything in the current state of a behavior. Every important behavior in an organization sits somewhere on a spectrum: it might be purely aspirational, weakly practiced, inconsistent, friction-heavy, fully stable, actively suppressed, or not even clearly defined. Each of these states is held back by different blockers—lack of clarity, lack of skills, lack of time, workflow friction, political risk, or social norms—and each requires a different kind of support. Using a behavior-design lens like COM-B, the idea becomes simple: tools only work when they address the real blocker. Sometimes their job is to scaffold early steps and turn aspiration into practice. Sometimes it is to remove operational drag from a behavior that already exists. Sometimes it is to create shared visibility and reduce political friction. Tools matter, but how they matter depends entirely on the behavioral context they are dropped into.Show Notes (AI Generated) The Core QuestionWhen do tools matter, and how do they matter?Answer: It depends entirely on the current state of the behavior you want to see.The Seven Behavior StatesA. Normal States* Aspirational / Not RealizedOnly talked about. No real practice.* Weakly RealizedPeople agree it matters and occasionally try it, but it gets displaced by urgency and habit.* Partially Realized / InconsistentHappens in pockets. Conflicting interpretations. Local successes that have not scaled.* Mostly Realized but Friction-FilledBehavior is accepted and happening, but it is painful due to workflow friction, manual effort, tool constraints, or time pressure.* Fully Realized / StableConsistent, predictable, routinized. Embedded norms. Change feels risky.Special States* Actively SuppressedCounter-behaviors, incentives, or power dynamics prevent the behavior.* Contested / UndefinedNo shared understanding of what the behavior even is or how it should show up.COM-B EssentialsA behavior emerges when people have:* Capability* Psychological: knowledge, mental models, clarity* Physical: skills, practice* Opportunity* Physical: time, tools, workflow space* Social: norms, permission, cues, legitimacy* Motivation* Reflective: beliefs, intentions, identity, political risk* Automatic: habits, impulses, shortcutsTools can influence any of these.How Tools Help Depends on the Behavior StateIf the behavior is…Aspirational / Not RealizedPrimary tool role:Turn aspiration into a repeatable practice.Strategies:* Provide structure and scaffolding* Make early steps easy* Visualize desired state* Reinforce identity and intentWeakly RealizedPrimary tool role:Lower activation energy and make it harder to forget or skip.Blockers:* Not enough time* Habit competition* Too many steps* Short-term urgency wins over long-term valueStrategies:* Reduce steps* Support self-regulation* Nudge and cue the behavior* Make it easy to startPartially Realized / InconsistentPrimary tool role:Create a shared frame without forcing uniformity.Strategies:* Clarify purpose* Help reconcile or visualize different interpretations* Provide minimally viable standardizationMostly Realized but Friction-FilledPrimary tool role:Remove operational drag.Blockers:* Workflow friction* Manual coordination* Confusing handoffs* Tool gapsStrategies:* Standardize routines* Streamline workflows* Make bottlenecks visible* Automate repetitive workFully Realized / StablePrimary tool role:Preserve what works while reducing risk and effort.Blockers:* Risk aversion* Fear of destabilizing the ritual* Manual grind that no one wants to mess withStrategies:* Automate low-value steps* De-risk changes* Protect institutional knowledgeContested / UndefinedPrimary tool role:Clarify, name, and frame the behavior.Strategies:* Make interpretations explicit* Help teams converge on a definition* Reveal misalignmentActively SuppressedPrimary tool role:Shift legitimacy, visibility, and power dynamics.Strategies:* Provide shared visibility* Depoliticize the behavior* Reinforce norms or incentives* Create social proofTool Change Vectors (How Tools Influence Behavior)Tools can work through different mechanisms depending on the blocker:Influencing Capability* Clarification* Instruction* Cognitive offloading* Guided workflows* ChecklistsInfluencing Opportunity* Automation* Better workflows* Reducing steps* Making time and spaceInfluencing Motivation* Social proof* Legitimacy* Identity cues* Reduced political risk* ReinforcementWhat This Means for AIAI's role will differ depending on the behavior state:* In aspirational states: scaffold early steps, provide examples, generate clarity.* In friction-filled states: remove manual overhead, automate stitching, reduce coordination cost.* In stable states: protect quality, ensure consistency, prevent regressions.* In contested states: help surface meaning, definitions, and distinctions.AI is another lever in the COM-B system — not magic, but highly state-dependent.The Core InsightTools always matter, but they matter in different ways depending on:* Which behavior you're trying to support* Where that behavior currently sits on the realization spectrum* What is actually blocking it (Capability, Opportunity, Motivation)Getting this right means choosing the right intervention instead of assuming tools “fix” or “don't fix” things.

In this episode, Paul Andrews tackles a common challenge faced by many guitarists: how to keep developing as a musician when an injury or surgery keeps you away from the guitar. Inspired by a question from student Jim Fochs (recovering from left shoulder surgery), Paul Andrews shares practical ways to stay motivated, continue progressing, and set up for a strong comeback—even if you physically can't play.Key Topics Covered1. Mindset ShiftYour identity as a guitarist doesn't pause just because you're injured.Shift focus from physical playing to musical development.Maintain your regular practice times and fill them with musical activities that don't require the guitar.2. Skills to Train Without the GuitarEar Training: Use apps like EarMaster or music theory resources. Train intervals, chords, rhythms, and overall aural skills.Music Theory: Take advantage of recovery time to learn theory in bite-sized pieces—chord families, key signatures, scales, and how theory influences songs.Song Studies: Analyze songs you want to play when you're back. Break down their structure, chords, rhythm, and get familiar through intense listening.Visualization: Imagine playing. Visualize chord shapes, riffs, picking patterns, and finger placements—high-level athletes use this technique to rehearse mentally.Intentional Listening: Listen purposefully to music, live recordings, interviews, and documentaries. Focus on tone, timing, and technique.3. Practicing with Limited MobilityIf medically safe, work on right-hand only skills like muted strumming, rhythm drills, or picking.Practice rhythm by tapping, clapping, or counting along with music, even without holding the guitar.Try gentle mobility exercises for your recovering hand—only with professional clearance.4. Planning Your ComebackStart slow: aim for 50% of your previous practice load, focusing on basics like chords and slow strumming.Gradually reintroduce technical work, prioritizing quality over quantity.Trust that your progress will come back—and may even be accelerated by your musical development during recovery.News & UpdatesMember Q&A: This month's Q&A recording is now available in the Beginner Guitar Academy dashboard and the members-only podcast.Guitar Gear: New designs and a range of hats, mugs, and stickers added to the Guitarshirts.Shop.Gift Subscriptions: Now available for Beginner Guitar Academy—give the gift of guitar to a friend!One-to-One Lessons: Book private sessions withPaul Andrewsto get personal help or build a recovery/practice plan.Final ThoughtsIf you're currently injured or recovering from surgery, you're not alone, and your time away from the fretboard can STILL be productive. Focus on the musical side of learning, strengthen often-overlooked skills, and know that you'll return to the guitar with a stronger foundation.If you'd like help building a recovery plan, need motivation, or want to share your own experience, join the Beginner Guitar Academy community at beginnerguitaracademy.com.

ABOUT THIS EPISODE:Alright… this one right here? This is your soul-level grounding session for anytime you're stepping back into old environments — the ones that knew a past version of you and still expect her to show up; also AKA your pre-Thanksgiving survival guide for the soul. Because listen — nothing tests your healing like walking back into environments that only know the “old you.” The people-pleaser you. The never-sets-boundaries you. The “sure, I can do it” version you've worked so hard to retire.In this episode, we're talking identity integrity, holiday boundaries, emotional maturity, and stepping into rooms as the healed woman you've become — not the version they're more comfortable with. If you've ever felt yourself shrinking around family, old friend circles, or familiar environments… sis, this is your sign to reclaim your power, hold your energy, and walk in thankful and protected.We'll dive into how to stay grounded, how to lovingly enforce boundaries, and how to show up as your present self without slipping back into outdated roles. Expect spiritual grounding, real talk, gentle conviction, and the kind of coaching that keeps you aligned, unbothered, and in full Main Character Energy.KEY TAKEAWAYS:#1 — You're Allowed to Evolve: Just because they remember who you were doesn't mean you owe them that version now.#2 — Familiarity Doesn't Equal Access: Family knowing the old you does not give them authority over the healed you.#3 — Protect Your Peace, Not Their Comfort: Boundaries aren't rude — they're respect for your growth and your nervous system.#4 — Choose Responses, Not Reactions: Slow down, breathe, and let your healed self answer… not the version trained to perform.#5 — Your Identity Is Sacred: This year, your Main Character Energy walks in first — grounded, grateful, and gloriously unbothered.THE SELF-LOVE 2-STEP — THE IDENTITY INTEGRITY EDITION:Friend… this is your anchor. Your warm-up. Your spiritual pre-game before stepping into any environment where old energy tries to pull on you. Use this 2-Step anytime you feel yourself wobbling — holidays, reunions, old friend hangouts, all of it.✨ Step 1: Name the Version They Expect — and Release HerBefore you walk into that house, pause and ask: “Who do they think I still am?” The fixer? The peacekeeper? The quiet one? The emotional sponge? Name it so you can release it. Call it out so it can't call you back.

In this powerful conversation, Coach Frank is joined once again by psychologist and bestselling author Dr. Glenn Livingston (Never Binge Again) to break down one of the biggest hidden challenges men face: staying in control around food — especially during the holidays.   They explore why so many disciplined, successful men lose control with their eating this time of year, and how to indulge without guilt, compromise, or spiraling into a "start again Monday" setback.   Dr. Livingston reveals simple rules, identity-based strategies, and mindset shifts that allow men to enjoy the holidays while maintaining discipline, confidence, and self-respect — without obsessing, restricting, or apologizing for their goals.   Expect to Learn Why high-performers fall off more during the holidays — and how to stop it   The exact moment overeating starts — and how to intercept it   How to enjoy holiday food without losing control or waking up ashamed   Tools for navigating social pressure and family dynamics around food   Why perfectionism is the enemy of long-term health   The role of identity in lasting behavior change   How to set New Year's resolutions that actually work   Why emotional healing doesn't come before discipline — it comes after habits change   Key Takeaways Boundaries prevent guilt. You can indulge — but you must decide when, where, and how much ahead of time.   Social pressure is real — but manageable. Redirect conversations instead of defending your choices.   Clear food rules = less stress. Discipline is easier when your brain isn't negotiating every decision.   Mindful eating changes the experience. Slow down, taste your food, and stay present at the table.   Put your phone away during meals. Connection increases fulfillment and reduces overeating.   Identity is the long-term lever. Eat according to the man you're becoming — not the impulse of the moment.   Aim for consistency, not perfection. Small wins build momentum — and momentum builds belief.   Visualize consequences. Think beyond the moment and feel future outcomes before you act.   Behavior drives emotion. Fix your patterns first, and the emotional attachment to food begins to dissolve.   New Year's resolutions must be specific. Vague motivation fades — concrete rules stick.   Connect with Dr. Glenn Livingston: Website - https://www.defeatyourcravings.com/   Podcast - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/never-binge-again/id1262926738   --- Connect with Frank and The Super Human Life on Social Media: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/coachfrankrich/   Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/584284948647477/   Website: http://www.thesuperhumanlifepodcast.com/tshlhome   YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCjB4UrpxtNO2AFtDURMzoKQ

In this guided meditation episode of Five Minutes of Peace, we welcome back life coach David Lawson to lead listeners through a transformative visualization to help release limiting beliefs and consciously create the future they want.David begins with grounding breathwork—inviting you to sit comfortably, breathe deeply, and feel energy rise from the soles of your feet to the crown of your head. As you settle into stillness, he guides you to imagine a peaceful place in nature — a beach, a forest, or a meadow — where your mind and body can relax into calm awareness.He then explains how the power of conscious thought can rewire your brain. By recognizing and releasing unwanted emotions or stories that no longer serve you, you can shift from anxiety and self-doubt toward freedom and empowerment. Through this process, David teaches that awareness gives you choice — the ability to stop old patterns, cancel them, and consciously create new beliefs aligned with your higher self.Listeners are invited to:Identify and release emotions that keep them stuck.Surrender old energy to the universe for transformation.Visualize their new self — free, peaceful, and empowered.Trust in the universe's support to sustain that change.The meditation closes with gentle reminders to breathe, relax, and re-enter your day with renewed energy and awareness.David Lawson is a transformational life coach and founder of Awake Warrior, based in Toronto, Ontario. His work focuses on conscious living, emotional release, and empowering individuals to awaken their highest potential through mindfulness and personal development.Learn more about David's work at www.awakewarrior.com.Five Minutes of Peace is produced by The Peace Room in Boise, Idaho — a space dedicated to Reiki, energy healing, and conscious living.Learn more or book a session at www.ThePeaceRoom.love.

Often described as the "cosmic library" or "universal database" containing the energetic imprint of every soul's thoughts, actions, emotions, and experiences across lifetimes, the Akashic Records have fascinated mystics, psychics, philosophers, and truth-seekers for centuries. We explore the origins of the Akashic Records, tracing the idea back to ancient Eastern traditions. The Sanskrit word "Akasha," meaning "ether" or "sky," forms the foundation of this spiritual concept: a realm where all information—past, present, and potential future—exists beyond the physical world. Theosophists in the 19th and early 20th centuries expanded the idea, suggesting that gifted individuals could access this dimension to gain knowledge far beyond normal human understanding. Throughout the episode, we dive into what the Akashic Records allegedly contain. Many believers say that every soul has its own "record," documenting past lives, soul contracts, karmic lessons, unresolved traumas, spiritual gifts, and even future possibilities. We examine how modern practitioners claim to access these records using meditation, altered states of consciousness, or guided visualization. Are these practitioners tapping into a higher spiritual plane—or reaching deep into their subconscious mind? As always, we present the phenomena from both mystical and skeptical viewpoints, giving listeners the space to draw their own conclusions. We also share compelling stories and reported encounters from individuals who say they have accessed their records. Some describe receiving healing messages, seeing vivid scenes from past lives, or feeling overwhelming waves of peace and understanding. Others report encountering guides, ancestors, or beings of light who help interpret what they see. These accounts raise intriguing questions: Are these genuine spiritual experiences, symbolic visions, or manifestations of the psyche? From a paranormal perspective, the Akashic Records intersect with many themes we've covered on the podcast—past-life memories, near-death experiences, mediumship, psychic awakening, and the concept of a collective consciousness. We explore how these ideas may connect and whether the Records could serve as the mechanism behind mysterious human experiences such as déjà vu, profound intuition, or sudden unexplainable knowledge. As always, we bring the conversation home with thought-provoking analysis. Could the Akashic Records be real? If they exist, what does that mean about the nature of reality, the soul, and the interconnectedness of all living beings? And if they are simply metaphorical or psychological, why do so many people across cultures feel drawn to this idea? A Basic Method for Accessing the Akashic Records 1. Set a Clear Intention The Akashic tradition teaches that your intention is your key. Before you begin, sit quietly and think about why you want to access the Records. Examples: "I want clarity about my purpose." "I want insight into past patterns." "I am seeking healing or guidance." Say your intention silently or out loud. This focuses your awareness on a higher state of consciousness. 2. Create a Calm Environment Find a quiet place where you won't be disturbed. Dim lights, sit comfortably, and take several deep breaths. Your mind should feel calm but alert. Some people like to: Light a candle Play soft ambient or meditation music Hold a crystal or object that helps them focus Not required—just personal preference. 3. Ground Your Energy Take 5–10 slow breaths. Imagine your breath dropping down into your body, relaxing your feet, legs, torso, arms, and head. Some visualize roots growing from their feet into the earth. This helps stabilize your energy before trying to reach upward. 4. Use a Gateway Meditation Here is a simple visualization: Close your eyes. Imagine a beautiful staircase or pathway leading upward. At the top is a door or bright energetic field. This symbolizes the entrance to the Records. Walk toward the door slowly in your mind. When you reach it, imagine a librarian, guide, or guardian greeting you. Ask silently: "May I access my Akashic Records?" If the answer feels like a yes (calm, open, expanding feeling), proceed. If it feels like a no (tension, discomfort), stop and try another day. 5. Ask a Clear Question Once "inside," hold your intention and ask one question at a time. Examples: "What soul lesson am I learning right now?" "What pattern should I release?" "What is my next step for growth?" "What past life influences my present challenge?" Pay attention to what comes through: Images Words Feelings Memories Sudden realizations The Records rarely appear like a literal library—most people receive symbolic or intuitive impressions. 6. Receive Without Judgment Don't force anything. If nothing happens at first, that's normal. Many people need practice. If something does come through, simply observe: What emotion accompanies it? Does it feel wise, peaceful, or expansive? Does it help you understand your life better? This is the core of the experience. 7. Thank the Records and Close the Door Before ending, always close respectfully. Visualize the Records fading or the door gently closing. Take a few breaths and ground yourself again. This helps prevent lingering emotional or energetic openness. A Few Helpful Tips Consistency matters—people improve with repeated sessions. Keep a journal to track what you experience. Never attempt a session while emotional, tired, or unfocused. Treat the Records like a sacred or deep psychological space. Join us for a deep and fascinating discussion as we open the metaphorical doors to the universe's library—exploring the mysteries, myths, and possible truths behind the Akashic Records.

If you ask someone with aphantasia to visualize an apple, a tree, or the house they grew up in, their mind draws a blank. Literally. The inability to conjure up mental images was discovered in the 1880s but only recently has been given a name and become the subject of more serious study. Aphantasia is found in approximately one percent of the population and can also affect the ability to recall sounds, touch and the sensation of movement. Some aphantasics experience their condition as a loss, while others say the freedom from being bound by visual memory allows them to live fully in the present. We talk about aphantasia and what it tells us about how our brains perceive and remember.

The Consequences Are Profound" Tom Ebeyer, founder, Aphantasia Network Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

The first step to transformation is to stop doing what no longer works." – Marcia Daszko On this episode of On the Brink with Andi Simon, I sat down with Marcia Daszko, a visionary leadership consultant and author of Pivot, Disrupt, Transform: How Leaders Beat the Odds and Survive. Marcia's journey—from being "excruciatingly shy" to mentoring leaders at Apple, Boeing, and the U.S. Navy—reveals a rare combination of courage, curiosity, and clarity. Her lessons, rooted in the teachings of Dr. W. Edwards Deming, challenge leaders to abandon outdated management practices and embrace a deeper, systems-based way of thinking. From Management Fads to Meaningful Leadership Marcia began her career in marketing before being mentored by Dr. Perry Gluckman, a close associate of Dr. Deming, who revolutionized management thinking through systems theory and continuous improvement. What she learned was not just what to do, but how to think. Too often, organizations chase the latest management fad—Six Sigma, Lean, "best practices"—without understanding the systems that create real success. Marcia calls these "tragedies" because they add complexity without meaning. She estimates that 50 to 80 percent of organizational waste comes from such misguided efforts. Her process begins with a bold question: "What do we need to stop doing?" Once leaders remove what's not working, they can open the flow of communication, creativity, and collaboration—what Marcia calls the "system of profound knowledge." When systems make sense, people thrive. Watch the podcast here: Learning to See Differently Like many of my guests, Marcia helps organizations "see, feel, and think" in new ways. She starts by asking questions that uncover hidden assumptions and systemic barriers. Employees usually know what's wrong, she says, but no one listens. When she leads workshops, she doesn't rely on PowerPoint slides. Instead, she creates experiences—conversations, simulations, and reflections—that shift perspectives. "I don't get resistance," she explains, "because the exercises take care of that." It's an anthropologist's insight wrapped in a strategist's toolkit: people don't change because they're told to—they change because they experience a new way of being together. The Strategic Compass for an Uncertain Future In today's world of disruption, Marcia argues that leaders don't need a roadmap—they need a compass. The future can't be predicted; it must be navigated through exploration, experimentation, and learning. Her Strategic Compass helps executives pivot as they encounter new "rivers and mountains" in their business landscape. Leadership, she reminds us, is not about control but curiosity. The most powerful organizations foster environments where everyone can learn, question, and contribute. Her three "legs of the stool" are: Innovation as a business strategy Continuous improvement as a business strategy Quality as a business strategy Sadly, she says, quality and customer service—once foundational to success—have too often been forgotten. Building a Culture of Trust and Curiosity Both Marcia and I share a passion for culture change. She emphasizes that great leaders reduce fear and build trust. When people feel safe, they can be curious and collaborative. It's not enough to post company values on a wall; leaders must define the behaviors that bring those values to life. Her workshops often transform even the most rigid workplaces. In one session, an employee of 15 years said it was the first time he had felt truly appreciated and engaged. That's the power of inclusion, curiosity, and respect in action. Leading in the Age of AI As we discussed the rise of artificial intelligence, Marcia was unequivocal: "If you're afraid of AI, you'll be left behind." She sees AI not as a threat but as a tool for learning and transformation. The challenge, she warns, is to build guardrails—policies and ethics that guide its use responsibly. In an age when consulting firms can generate proposals in minutes, leaders must rethink how people create value. The winners will be those who empower their teams to use new tools, think critically, and continuously learn. Key Takeaways Stop before you start. Identify and eliminate wasteful management practices that add complexity without results. Think in systems. Every part of your organization is interconnected. Problems are rarely isolated. Create flow. Open channels for communication, creativity, and collaboration. Replace fear with trust. People thrive when they feel safe to contribute. Stay curious. Learning is not a phase—it's a way of life. Use AI wisely. Embrace new tools, but balance innovation with ethical governance. What You Can Do Next Run a "Stop Doing" audit. Gather your team and list processes or habits that no longer serve your mission. Eliminate one per quarter. Host a curiosity circle. Ask open-ended questions like, "What assumptions are we making?" or "What would our customers say if they were in this room?" Map your system. Visualize how information, decisions, and accountability flow. Look for bottlenecks or blind spots. Pair technology with humanity. Use AI or analytics to inform—not replace—human judgment. Model the behavior you want to see. As Marcia says, leadership begins when everyone sees themselves as a leader. Marcia Daszko's work reminds us that transformation is not about new tools—it's about new thinking. If you're ready to pivot from managing the past to creating the future, this episode will show you how.
