The Infinite Potential of Being Human (Nicky Clinch)

What actually is story, and how does it shape our identity and our mind?

We can't be human without having a story. And although story only partially revolves around present situations, past experiences play a more significant role in the stories we tell about ourselves.

In today's episode, we'll cover the foundations of the stories we tell ourselves, how to develop the ability to reflect on your life as a human being, and why you need to mature your relationship with your story.

What You'll Learn:

-What is story?

-How the stories we tell ourselves shape our identity

-Understanding the science and philosophy of being

-How the self-image is created

-What is identity and why it is important

-The power of knowing who you are

-Recognising the blindspots in the stories we tell ourselves

-How to mature the relationship with your story

When we are experiencing challenges in our lives, whether it’s with health, or relationships, or just what is true for us, one thing to consider is asking ourselves where we can be responsible. When we are stuck in pain and suffering, are we blaming someone else for our experience, or are we ready to learn and grow and mature from it? Because the hard part to understand is that we actually get to choose how our reality appears to us.

In this episode, we’re going to first dive into this attachment to suffering, and explore what we are magnetising and emanating right now. We’re going to look into the things that keep repeating in our lives, bringing consciousness to what we are actually emanating, in order to arrive at what we want to be emanating. 

What is Covered: 

-Why we tend to be so addicted to pain and suffering

-The split way of being and our oscillating between opposing desires

-How to be honest with ourselves without blame, shame and guilt 

-How the world that we are seeing is created moment by moment 

-Understanding emanation and what you are emanating right now

-Journaling exercise: what do you want to be emanating?

Currently, I’m going through a major transition in life. My old world is in the process of dissolving and completing, while simultaneously birthing the new one. In this phase of in-between, we are still with one foot in the old world that no longer fits, and one foot in the new world and the future. The experience is uncomfortable and awkward, but it is one that all of us have to go through multiple times during our lifetime. 

So in this episode, I’m going to unpack a little this state of in-between, why it is necessary in order to create a new future, what learning and awareness we can gain from it, and how we can get closer to honesty and alignment with the truth of our heart.  

What is Covered: 

-The transition that is currently happening in my life

-Why the in-between phase is the only way to create new reality

-The necessary work of completion of the old before we fully step into the new

-Why is it that we don’t tell ourselves the truth? 

-The power of the survival mind and why we perceive freedom as threatening

-Understanding the heart as the home to truth

-The process of maturing from the original heartbreak to returning to the heart

-A journaling exercise to explore your untold truths

These two questions from the title actually go hand in hand. You cannot have a reality without a paradigm from which reality is appearing from. But who or what creates those? Is it just given to us? 

There is a consistent human blind spot that the reality that we get is already there; we just happen to have to wake up every day and work at how to live in it. But reality itself is actually not a fixed thing. And in this episode, I’ve decided to tackle this complex topic, to unpack how the current paradigm and our view of reality came to be, how it’s starting to shift for us as the species, and how we can deepen our understanding of this process.

What You’ll Learn: 

-The way enough collective agreement creates a paradigm

-What is the old paradigm created by science of that time

-Who started to challenge the dominant scientific paradigm first

-Why we need to include human consciousness into our relationship with reality

-How the fixedness of how reality appears for us becomes destabilised

-The importance of our power to take responsibility for our own reality

-Question 1 - What is it that you are now ready to question?

-Question 2 - What do you think could be possible if you are really responsible for how reality appears to you as an individual?

The quality of relationships seem to cause a lot of pain and suffering on the planet right now. Long-lasting, committed, intimate, authentic relationships such as marriages, but also friendships or working relationships seem to be rarer these days.   

Why is that happening, and what is it that shapes our relationship with intimacy? In this episode, I want to go deep to the root of what drives attraction, behaviour, speech, thought, and even what we see as human beings. Where are we actually seeing from, that gives us our experience of intimacy? 

If you have struggled to find partners to be in any kind of relationship, or if you are in relationships and are struggling, this episode is for you. 

What you’ll Learn: 

-What family field is and how it shapes your reality

-The three poles of the family field

-Presence and absence as equally strong experiences

-Why it’s fundamental for human species to learn to relate to one another

-Examples of different relationships with intimacy from real life

-How love and intimacy activate your family field

-Journaling exercise to help you bring more consciousness into your relationship with intimacy

Burnout is just rampant on our planet today. Shockingly, the current statistics for burnout show that the biggest percentage of the population suffering from this are the youngest generation, the Gen Zs. Burnout is a huge issue in society and it is also increasingly correlated with depression. 

Why is it, when there is more content than ever before in history, offering the answers to our problems such as anxiety and depression, that those problems are actually getting worse? It doesn't logically make sense, but it’s happening. So in this episode, I want to explore what burnout actually is, the blind spots that are driving the roots to burnout, and what is happening to our younger generations.

What is Covered: 

-The prevalence of burnout in today’s world 

-What kind of behaviour burnout is

-The roots of burnout 

-Childhood experiences that can lead to a sense of unsafety and dissatisfaction

-Looking at burnout from an ontological perspective

-How to start changing how you see yourself and your identity

-What problem are you trying to solve by burning out?

This week I want to focus on the BodyMind experience of confusion. Confusion is when you really don't know something, but your mind is telling you that you should.

So why do we freeze from this experience that grips us? What is the root to this pattern? How may it be shaping who you think you are as your identity and your behaviour? And how do you begin to outgrow and become free of it? 

In this episode, I’m going to dive into this common human experience, how it’s connected with your childhood and past trauma, and how you can gain power over confusion. 

What is Covered: 

-What happens in your BodyMind when you are gripped by confusion

-How confusion drives your behaviour and impacts your life

-The power of confusion vs. the power of being with confusion 

-How children experience the world and how confusion gets created in childhood

-How to start overcoming confusion and allowing yourself to now know

-A journaling exercise to bring more consciousness into the experience of confusion

Today's episode is about the distinction between fantasy and creation. We will dive into what fantasy is so that we can start to see it with new awareness, because awareness is what heals and allows the process of maturation to take place. 

Fantasy feeds from the human condition. The current paradigm in the world that we're in also feeds our fantasy in a continuous vicious cycle. Part of what is keeping us all stuck in a state of suffering is that hopefulness of fantasy, that one day when we get somewhere, then we will finally be free from whatever we’re struggling with right now. But the problem is that it never really happens. So today we’ll explore why that is and how we can start turning fantasy into creation. 

What is Covered: 

-Why fantasy is like a drug

-Getting high on fantasy vs being empowered in the present

-Why so many relationships are founded in fantasy

-Fantasy as a reaction to the past 

-The hopefulness of fantasy vs creating in the present moment

-What is the alternative to fantasy

-What is creation and how to create the future 

-Journaling exercise to explore your fantasies

The quality of communication is a fundamentally important piece to having nourishing, safe, conscious and present relationships. Whether that is in love, in friendships, with family members, co-workers or teachers, the quality of our relationships is what brings us the most fulfilment in life.

But why is it that we struggle so much with relationships? And why is communication the number one problem in failing relationships, a piece that breaks down trust, intimacy and connection? 

Let's dedicate this episode to the power of communication. We're going to dive deep into conscious listening, conscious speaking, and how we can get better at it to allow ourselves to experience more love, more compassion, connection and peace in our relationships.  

What is Covered: 

-What we are doing when we are communicating

-The most common problems we experience in our relationships

-Why most people have no idea how to listen to another person

-How our past experiences shape what we hear when we’re listening

-What conscious, present listening is

-What makes us say what we say when we are speaking

-A journaling exercise to help you bring more consciousness to your listening and speaking patterns

Are you one of those people that has watched yourself sabotage something that you know you want, and yet something in you is blocking it or even actively pushing it away? Why is it that when you finally receive the love, the nourishment, the care, the fulfilment, the success, the money, the attention, the connection that you want, having it is so threatening that before you know it, you're finding whatever way you can find to get rid of it? It doesn't make any logical sense to reject a beautiful opportunity, but you still say no. And you're watching yourself and you know what you're doing, but you can't stop it. 

Why is sabotage so common in human beings, and why is it a cause of so much of our pain and suffering? And what could possibly be a solution to that? This is what we’re going to dive into in this episode. 

What is Covered: 

-How we normalise the pattern of sabotage in our lives

-Why sabotage is a blind spot and why we can’t stop it

-Survival vs. living and why we remain stuck in survival

-Looking at the pain and shame of sabotage from an ontological perspective

-What’s the alternative to sabotage

-Are you living to win or are you living to not lose?

When I say completion, I mean the intention, the choice, and the consciousness to bring repeating cycles to a close. Life flows in a cyclical manner and unless it is brought to some form of completion, those cycles will continue to repeat.

What You’ll Learn:

-How to get the most out of the power of completion

-Embracing the cyclical nature of life

-Understanding the deep human longing for wholeness

-The difference between blaming and learning 

-What the process of completion looks like

-The myths around completion-Ways to take responsibility and ownership for the cycles that keep repeating 

-How to bring consciousness to the blindspots in your life

-Learning to be 100% responsible for your experience of reality

I'm sure that this is not the first time you are hearing the word vulnerability. But most of the time, I don't think many of us know what it even really means, and how powerful and sacred vulnerability is. 

Vulnerability is not just an emotion or a state of being, it is actually a gateway, a doorway into being able to connect with each other deeper. It is a space within the heart, within the space of consciousness and truth of human beings that allows us to connect universally with each other, with ourselves and with the present moment - all of which I believe is a universal longing and want.

So how do we go from the head into the heart to experience the state of sacred vulnerability? 

What is Covered: 

-Connection and disconnection - our greatest wants and greatest regrets 

-Why vulnerability is the only gateway to experience deeper connection with others

-Original heartbreak and why everything begins and ends with the heart

-How sitting with the heart’s ache enables us to be more present

-Journaling prompt for exploring your vulnerability

Whether they are running their own business or working in a company, one of the hardest pieces that I see people struggling with is their relationship to their work. 

So, we either love our job, but we burn out doing it. Or we feel pressured in it - we love it, but it also makes us feel trapped. Or we work in jobs where we feel unfulfilled, or we find ourselves repeating the same patterns in jobs, no matter how many times we change jobs or change industries, or change our behaviours when it comes to running our own businesses. 

It seems like the way that we're in relationship with business and work has a familiarity to how we are in relationship with ourselves. So I want to use this episode to dive into our relationship with business and work from an ontological context.

What is Covered: 

-The connection between the way we are in our work and our original family dynamic

-Why we seem to always end up in the same job and the same team regardless of the company or the industry

-How our mind as a pattern recognition device acts in work environment

-Why we can’t recognise our parents in our bosses and coworkers 

-How to begin solving the repeating work patterns 

-Journaling question: what is your biggest struggle in work at this moment? How familiar is that to your original family dynamics?

Today, we’re going to dive into identity politics. And if you are in the US, you cannot deny that it is happening everywhere in the political landscape. But what I want to do is blow up that whole system altogether and look at what's keeping us trapped in the same familiar form of suffering no matter what side we choose.

Currently on our planet, the different worldviews that we identify with are so rampant in the battles we are fighting against each other. In fact, we are currently in a war - the war on the human mind. What’s winning that war is not the “right” viewpoint, but the fact that we as a species don't realise that we are trapped in a particular set of blindspots. So that’s what I’m going to unpack in today’s episode, and invite you to feel more compassion for yourself and someone else who is of a different self-worldview than you.  

What is Covered: 

-The essence of identity politics and why they keep us trapped

-Is there the “right” belief and the “right” viewpoint?

-Why nothing seems to be changing no matter which worldview we choose

-The blindspots that keep us trapped in the paradox of identity politics

-Paul Levy’s teachings in “The Quantum Revelation” 

-What self-worldview is and why we can’t see our own context

-How we can be manipulated if we are not conscious of identity mechanisms

-Why we feel so threatened when our worldview is challenged

-How we can start gaining more consciousness, more power and cultivate more compassion towards different self-worldviews

Last week, I spoke about healing the Mother wound and the impact that our relationship with Mother has on our sense of self, on our relationship with our own bodies, with the planet, with intimacy and with each other. This week, I am going to dive into healing the Father wound, the masculine side of our family field. We always have some kind of relationship with Father. Even if Father is absent, if Father was never there, we have a relationship with him, and it manifests in how we get a sense of ourselves. 

Because it’s really important and powerful to gain more consciousness on what we absorbed and inherited from our family field, from these two mega poles that have shaped who we think we are. The exploration of the Mother and the Father wound is not for our physical parents, even though they also benefit from it. It’s for us, for our own peace and freedom, and for our own ability  to be authentic and true to who we really are. So let’s dive in. 

What is Covered: 

-When in childhood we start to develop the relationship with Father

-How it’s possible to have a relationship with an absent Father

-Two ways in which the relationship with Father shows in our life

-How an unhealed Father wound shows up in our relationships with the masculine 

-What areas of our life and identity are affected by the relationship with Father

-Why some men try hard to not be their fathers and why it’s harmful to them

-How to begin the process of healing the Father wound

This week’s topic is not an easy one. First, because it’s a significant blindspot to how we experience reality itself, how we experience ourselves and each other. And second, because it’s the root to some of our greatest attachments in survival, so it may bring up a lot of activation for you. 

So we’re talking about the greatest human addiction of all - the human story. We human beings are storytelling animals, and the mind itself is a storytelling mechanism. These stories not only define how we think and know of ourselves, but they literally colour and give us our entire experience of our reality, the stories of our family, of our ancestors, of our countries, of love. So let’s unpack this great human drug that are the stories that run us. 

What is Covered: 

-Why we need stories and how they are connected to our survival

-How our attachment to stories block our longing for connection with others

-Whose stories are running us and how we absorb them 

-Identification with stories and the illusion of identity

-The alternative to holding on the stories and why we avoid it

-The stories of countries and how they create our shared reality

-Why we can compare stories to drugs

-How we can begin to come out of this blindspot

This week, I want to dive deeper into blindspots and explore how blindspots actually blind us. I’ll talk about how blindspots work and how they colour the appearing reality that we get. And then I’ll discuss why that is such a significant dilemma to the human species, and why we are stuck in our blindspots. 

In previous episodes, I talked about what blinspots are - a way of seeing or a context from where we are seeing, that colours how we see and that we don't even know that we don't know that we don't know! So we don't know we have a blindspot until the very moment the blindspot reveals itself. So how do we become conscious of our blindspots and how do they stop blinding us?

What is Covered: 

-Why blindspots are so powerful in colouring our reality

-How we can perceive and dissolve our blindspots

-Jean Piaget and his research of blindspots in child brain development

-Blindspots that are consistent to the entire human species

-Why we keep repeating the same patterns and cycles

-How blindspots work in our perception of reality

-Why blindspots are such a big dilemma for the whole world

-How a different and more mature world can look like

You're either blaming or learning; you can't have both. Which one do you choose?

As a species, we are naturally wired to blame other people or circumstances when things don't go according to plan. However, no good comes from blaming others. You'll benefit more from learning from your mistakes and using those mistakes as teaching moments, not blaming moments.

In today's episode, I'll discuss how you can fix your relationship with blame and completely commit to letting go of the blame mindset. I'll also share how the victim mindset is born and how you can learn to stop blaming others and be 100% responsible for your life.

What You'll Learn:

-How to get unstuck from the vicious cycle of blame

-Ways to overcome your addiction to blaming others

-How the victim mindset is born

-How to move from the blaming domain into the learning domain

-The blindspots keeping you in survival mode

-Tips for conscious living

-Ways you're giving away your power and how to stop doing that

If you feel like you're too fat, too skinny, too dumb, too smart, whatever it is, do you notice that there is always the other that is the right one? Or when you're clinging on to your reality and your perception being the right way, that there is always ‘the other’ that is the wrong way?

This episode focuses on the mentality of ‘the other, and the right and wrong mentality which is inherent on our planet. This mentality causes enormous pain in relationships, in families, between friends, between bosses and employees, as well as between different sections of society and different countries.  

When there is a “someone”, there is always “the other”. You cannot have one without the other. So in this episode, we’re going to start dissolving “the other” mentality and point the way of healing the split and coming home to the state of wholeness.  

What is Covered: 

-The construct of ‘the other’ and how it creates horrific violence on our planet

-Why this construct is an unsolvable vicious circle

-The stages of human development and how the split between “me” and “the other” is created

-The pain and consequences of “the other” mentality

-How to start resolving this right and wrong mentality

How can we have mature and intimate relationships with each other when we cannot even listen to each other?

Listening is the one thing most of us do daily. You'd think we'd be good at it, but we are not. As a species, we are still running on a very basic level of communication with each other. We hear noise, we make noise, and we think that's it. 

In this episode, I'll discuss how you can enrich your life and better connect with the wonderful world around you by becoming a better listener. I'll share what it takes to develop the skill of deep listening and why deep listening is the greatest shift to better communication. 

What You'll Learn:

-The power and importance of deep listening

-What the research says about deep listening

-How to become a better listener

-Barriers to effective listening

-Understanding and taming your reactivity

-How to build better relationships through deep listening

-The difference between hearing and listening

-How to mature your relationship to listening

Today’s episode is a quick roundup and a celebration of the creative process that led me to this point in my life and to this phase of the podcast. I’m going to share with you a little bit more of my personal journey, which I haven't done a lot in previous episodes. I want to describe the process of alchemy that is the creative process, with all its uncertainty and stepping into the unknown, but also with the firm commitment to something we cannot yet see materialised in 3D form.

We’re going to cover what creation is, how it can feel, how to deal with uncertainty and failures, and finally, how to receive and accept success when it comes.

Most of the planet is living in time. Morning, afternoon, evening. Past, present, future. We're either thinking about the future or trying to escape the past. We allow the seconds, the minutes, and the hours to give us the structure of how we live our lives.

In this episode, I'll discuss how we can learn to dissolve time, live in the present, and create beyond time and identity. Because creation can only exist in the present moment, and if you already know what you're doing, you're not creating; you're just mechanically repeating things.

What You'll Learn:

-Time and its impact on the human experience 

-How to start creating beyond time and identity

-The concept of time that keeps us stuck

-How to get a better perspective of your past, present, and future

-Understanding time as a man-made construct

-Accessing flow when you're stuck in time

-How your past shapes your present

-Ways to change your experiential relationship with time 

-Why understanding something is not enough to drive change

I cannot tell you how many people say to me: 

“I'm ready for divine love. Why do I keep ending up in relationships that are disappointing, with people who betray me, are narcissists, don't see me, where I feel unloved and unwanted? Why do I keep repeating the same old stuff no matter what I do, when I'm so ready for my divine love?”

And my answer to that declaration is, are you REALLY ready? In this episode, we’re going to dive into the source of patterns that keep repeating in our relationships. And we’re going to learn why taking 100% responsibility for our complaints is the only way that will bring us closer to the love we seek. 

What is Covered: 

-Recognising the familiar repeating complaints in our relationships

-Recognising the common element of all the complaints

-Why we so often identify with our suffering and pain

-What happens when we take 100% responsibility for our repeating patterns

-How to overcome the fear of detaching from our patterns

What makes you, you? Is it your accomplishments, facial patterns, job title or something intangible like how you respond to the ups and downs of life?

What You'll Learn:

-How to uncover the things that shape who you are

-Why who you think you are may not be who you really are

-Practical ways to find your true self

-How to release all that you are not

-The three layers of personality that shape who you are

Everything in human life begins with Mother. Mother is the core, the root, the creation, the entry point to our relationship with the 3D world, with body, with self and with being a human being.

Yet I haven't yet met or worked with a single human being that doesn't have some unresolved pain around this topic.

What is Covered: 

-Why it’s essential to complete our relationship with Mother 

-How our relationship with Mother affects our sense of being in this world

-The impact of Mother on our sense of embodiment and the relationship to our physical body and the planet

This week's topic is on curiosity, which I believe is the cure to fear. But we cannot talk about curiosity without first speaking about fear.

Fear is the number one piece that keeps us human beings stuck in survival. It’s the catalyst, the food to our survival mechanisms, and the suffering at the root of the human condition. Fear is like addiction. Survival cannot survive without fear. It is the human experience that keeps people from really living their life.

So how do we go beyond fear, and what is the alternative to the paradigm of fear? In this episode, we’re going to talk about this alternative. 

What is Covered: 

-Why fear is much more than just a feeling and why it keeps us stuck

-The connection between fear and the function of the human mind

-How perceived death can mean different things - rejection, betrayal, humiliation

-How fear leads to disconnection from living our lives

-Why curiosity is so counterintuitive to human mind

-How to engage in the process of curiosity and live from the paradigm of curiosity

-Why curiosity is the cure to fear

Almost everybody is in a relationship, yet we don’t know how to define one. We live as if we know what a relationship is, and then spend the rest of our lives looking for what we think we want in a partner, not knowing that the purpose of a relationship is not to meet your unmet needs. 

So what even is a relationship? 

In this episode, I’ll unpack what a relationship is from a deep ontological level, and explain why the best relationships are never picture-perfect fairy tales.

What You’ll Learn:

-How to define a relationship

-What 12 years of being married taught me about relationships

I believe we can agree that we are not doing very well as a species at the moment. In fact, we are suffering so much that self-improvement is becoming a trillion-dollar industry.

Surrender and let go - that’s what we hear all the time nowadays. But how do we fully surrender? What does it even mean to surrender? And why is that such a profound and important piece of our ability to outgrow, mature and heal?

I feel like my whole life and my personal journey of maturation has been dedicated to asking this question, how to surrender. I even wrote a book about this subject. So in this episode, I’m going to dive deep into the topic of surrendering, why it is important and how we can start going through this process. 

What is Covered: 

-The story of how I wrote a book about surrender

-My first experience with what it means to fully surrender

-The definition of full surrender 

-Consciousness and alignment in surrender 

-How to loosen the grip of survival mechanisms and why surrender is a counterintuitive act

-Two choices that we have each time we come to a crossroad in life

-A journaling exercise to help you bring awareness to the things you’re holding on to that may no longer serve you

Today I have one of my favourite humans, and by far one of the most creative people I’ve ever met on the podcast. Nicholas Onken is known as the photographer of some of the world's most highly acclaimed entrepreneurs like Jay Shetty, Lewis Howes, Gabby Bernstein and more. Nick is a Creative Alchemist whose professional and commercial repertoire has no template or limits.

He has been commissioned by top-tier brands such as Nike, Coca-Cola, Adidas and publishers such as Cosmopolitan, Conde Nast Traveller, and Marie Claire.

In this episode, we talk about Nick’s inspiring personal journey, the concept of aesthetic intelligence, our upcoming joint mastermind, and why we need to take ownership of both our internal and external expression to create the impact and influence that we desire in the world.

Why is it that we sabotage ourselves in our lives, even though we know what's better for us?

What You’ll Learn:

-What is self-sabotage?

-Why we sabotage ourselves

-The difference between survival and living 

-The childhood trauma that’s keeping you stuck

-What gives you the perception of who you are

Manifestation is very trendy right now. We see a lot of people that are able to manifest, and there's no question that we seem to be a species that has the capability to transform field into matter. You are already creating and generating the world that you've got.

But here’s the question: are you conscious of who is the one that’s actually manifesting?

Today's topic is focusing on the power of manifestation, but from a maturation context. I am going to reiterate what maturation is, and then I'll start diving into the process of manifestation. I’ll also propose a journaling exercise for you to explore who, actually, runs your world. 

What You’ll Learn: 

-What maturation is not, and what it is

-How manifestation gets confused with power

-What power really is and how we can access it 

-Why it’s fundamental to work with maturation if we want to manifest

-The pitfalls of manifestation and how to recognise what you really want

-Maturation as the process of outgrowing our survival mechanisms

-Two questions for a journaling exercise

Next week we’re going to dive even deeper into the topic of manifestation, vision, and transforming field into 3D matter. Because we are such powerful beings (but don’t tell anyone!).

-Whole Brain Living: The Anatomy of Choice and the Four Characters That Drive Our Life by Jill Bolte Taylor: https://www.amazon.com/Whole-Brain-Living-Anatomy-Characters-ebook/dp/B08W29Q2CR

The level of chaos on our planet right now is extreme. There are intense levels of chaos happening between countries, between political parties, between religions, between parents and their children. And let's not forget the chaos that is happening inside our own selves. 

So chaos is very prevalent, but is somehow eradicating it from our lives the only way we can have peace? Or if we are addicted to chaos, can we feel alive at all without it? In this episode, I want to talk about how we can transcend our current old paradigm of relationship to chaos, so that we don't have to live a life free of chaos, but that we can be with chaos and be free.

What is Covered: 

-Why chaos is perceived as a threat to our survival

-Examples of childhood experiences that can affect our relationship to chaos

-Why we are not equipped to have an empowered relationship to chaos

-Why chaos on our planet is increasing 

-How the Earth’s electromagnetic field affects what is happening internally in our BodyMind

Did you know that every single action you take is first led by an experience moving in the body?

You don't just move the cup. Something that moves through your body drives you to move the cup. There is no single action ever taken by a human being that isn't first led by a human experience.

Today, I’ll be speaking about the alchemy of the human body. I’ll break down how all creation happens because of the body, the power of what creates our world, and how your past experiences can be a hindrance or an advantage to your future. 

What You’ll Learn: 

-Understanding the alchemy of the human body

-How we’re evolving as a species

-The new kind of human being arriving on this planet

-Is it true that the body keeps a score? 

-Why you cannot separate the body and the mind

-How to break the chains of generational trauma

-How your past is contaminating your present

-The difference between knowing and being

-Why people keep repeating the same negative patterns

-Is the body the biggest hindrance to our spiritual evolution?

-How to release and dissolve everything you’re carrying in your bodymind

Psychedelics have become a very popular piece of society and culture today. It wasn’t like that at all when I first went to Amazon and started working with ayahuasca. It was almost like an underground secret for the ones seeking something beyond normal. But nowadays, plant medicines are being used by many, and they have become integrated into the surge of self-evolution that is taking place on our planet. 

In today’s episode, I want to dive into an inquiry around psychedelics. In particular, I want to create the distinction of the beautiful marriage between psychedelics and maturation, and why I see it as fundamental to work on both. I’ll share how psychadelics gifted me with acceleration of healing and evolution, but I’ll also unpack why their popularity is not all good and how they can be misused. 

What Is Covered: 

-My story and my experience with psychedelics

-Using plant medicine to escape vs. to integrate the change into your life

-How maturation and psychedelics can work together powerfully

-How plant medicine affects our boydmind and consciousness

-Why it’s crucial to be guided by a master teacher when working with psychedelics

-Different kinds of plant medicine and their characteristics

-How to avoid misusing psychedelics in survival ways 

-The importance of taking responsibility when using such a powerful tool

-Why maturation is fundamental to turning lessons from plant medicine into your reality

Although I do believe that plant medicines are part of our future, I also believe that we don't need to take them to experience other states of consciousness. So if you are thinking of working with any plant medicines, please do your research first, make sure that who you are choosing to facilitate you has profound levels of experience, and be ready to fully commit to the possibility of changing your reality.

This week we’re diving into emotional bleeding or emotional dumping versus emotional maturity, and the distinction between the two. 

Emotional bleeding or dumping is rampant, if not even supported, and sometimes even celebrated in our society and social media culture today. We live in a  public culture where there’s an opportunity to instantly be exposed and expressed. We are teaching the younger generations that being an emotional bleeder with no boundaries, no center, no ability to hold themselves and communicate in mature emotional ways, is normal. And it’s a toxic culture, causing a devastating impact to the person themselves who are stuck in the pattern, as well as so much pain to the people who are on the receiving end of emotional dumping. 

So in this episode, we’re going to talk about how to recognise and understand emotional dumping, and how to make steps from it towards emotional maturity. 

What is Covered: 

-What emotional bleeding or dumping is and the root of it

-How emotional dumping shows up in relationships

-Why emotional dumping is so damaging to all sides involved

-The hunger that drives this behaviour and why it can’t be satisfied

-Why emotional bleeding sometimes hides behind hyper-independence

-Emotional bleeding, narcissism and gaslighting

-How society feeds and celebrates emotional dumping

-What emotional maturity is and how we can be mum and dad to our own selves

-How emotional maturity shows in relationships 

-How to approach an emotional bleeder and set clear boundaries

Today, I’m going to share with you all about my journey with my body transformation. Since October last year to today, I have lost almost 40 pounds, and I am only 5’3”, so that’s a lot of weight that I was carrying as a very small Asian woman. 

Although I have worked really intentionally to get here, I’ve hesitated to share this story. One of the reasons is because I don't want to feed any part of the human psyche that obsesses with external perfection, believing that if we achieve it, then we'll finally be free of the unworthiness that we feel. I also don't want to say that the solution to that is to just put on loads of weight and tell ourselves that we're still lovable and worthwhile, and that we don't need to shape ourselves. 

I actually want to go way deeper into this story and share, from an ontological context, how and why I got overweight in the first place, and what kind of transformation has taken place in order to release that weight and everything that I carried with it. 

What is Covered: 

-How I got 40 pounds overweight

-The connection between our external and internal shape

-What kind of emotional weight our external weight may be hiding

-Why my weight persisted even though I ate healthy and exercised regularly

-The events that led me onto the journey of my body transformation

-The moment when the weight actually started dropping off my body

-How releasing the weight created more space for love and light to enter my BodyMind

Remember the last time you argued with your partner, friend or boss? Can you recall what you felt in your body at that time?

As a human being, you probably felt this full-body, mind-flooding force that gave you what to say and how to behave. It's almost like you had been hijacked by something. That, my friend, is the full mind-body entanglement that gives us our sense of identity.

In this episode, I'll dive into this design function that gives us our story, identity, and role in the world. I'll also talk about what it takes to dissolve the veils of illusion that are colouring who we think we are, how the world appears to us, and, therefore, how we live in it. 

What You'll Learn:

-The connection between the mind, body and identity

-The blindspots we all have as a species

-How your experiences shape your life

-How to silence the mental noise clouding your human experience

-The mind as a pattern recognition device

-Why survival mode is not the best way to live

-The root cause of all human suffering

-Uncovering emotions and thoughts through body sensations

Why is it that when we change our partners, we end up somehow with the same partner in a different outfit? Why is it, that even when we've done a lot of work on ourselves, it does not seem to be enough to create a fundamental shift in how we experience love, intimacy, and ourselves in a relationship? 

It seems like all the understanding of our childhood trauma and our relational patterns, all the information about attachment theories and human design that we have is not giving us the peace, freedom and maturity to have a nourishing and fulfilling relationship that we are longing for. 

So in this episode, we’re going to dive into this topic and look more deeply at what it is that is running the show in our relationships, and how we can begin to shift it for good. 

What is Covered: 

-Why relationships are so important for our spiritual evolution

-What kind of patterns keep repeating in our relationship

-How childhood relationships shape adult relationships and identity

-Why understanding alone is not sufficient to create fundamental shifts in our relationships

-The paradox of trying to solve past problems in current relationships

-How to take ownership of relationship patterns in order to begin to shift them

-Why we need to learn to be together in relationships and in the society as a whole

-A journaling exercise to examine how you experience yourself in a relationship

What is it about the mind that causes so much suffering?

The truth is, the mind itself is not the problem. Our mind is programmed to do one job and one job only - survive and be alert to potential threats. So, in an effort to protect us from harm, the brain causes us harm by ruminating about past trauma and worrying about the future.

In this episode, we’ll break down the human mind and the source of all our suffering as a species. I’ll also share the easiest way to experience true freedom in your life and a practical exercise to help you overcome negative thinking.

What Is Covered:

-All you need to know about the human mind and our thoughts

-What happens when you’re trying to control the mind

-Is it possible to actually stop thinking?

-Understand that the mind is designed to be a survival tool

-The benefits of writing down your thoughts

-Practical exercise to destroy negative thinking

-How to gain control over the human need for survival

-Ways to experience true freedom in your life

-The pros and cons of daily affirmations

-The exercise of Stoking the mind

What is maturation? If we all mature, why do we have consistent problems that keep repeating no matter how much we try to change and solve them?

I believe we don't get older; we just get taller. Biologically, we mature but retain the blind spots that cloud how we see the world. And as long as those blindspots stay unconscious, they will continue to rob us of the power to create the life we were meant to live.

In this episode, I'll share how we as a species can mature into a new way of being and outgrow the blind spots that are colouring our reality. I'll also provide you with practical strategies for recognising and overcoming blind spots that result from past experiences and childhood trauma.

What is Covered:

-Why maturation can be a trigger subject

-Ways to uncover the blindspots in your life

-How to grow and evolve beyond your childhood development stages

-How to get a clear sense of who you are as a being

-What it means to have an unsolvable problem

-The blindspots clouding your current reality

-How to not get blindsided by your blindspots

-Learn to live your life from higher levels of potential

-Dissolve the blindspots colouring how you see the world

We are opening a competition to celebrate the entering into a new phase of this show! In order to participate and win a valuable prize, you have to listen to all the episodes this week. Stay tuned to get all the information! 

Today, I am speaking about living and creating in flow. Flow is a big topic nowadays, but it’s often presented as something that we can get outside of ourselves. In fact, flow is a state of being, and a paradigm from which we are coming from and creating from. It's not something to hold onto. It's not an object that we can find somewhere, that will somehow solve the dissatisfaction, pain and emptiness that we are currently in. 

So how do we start to experience more flow, and learn to live and create in flow? 

What is Covered: 

-Why we remain stuck or get stuck even deeper by searching for flow

-Flow as a natural state of being

-Why the function of our mind is the complete antithesis to flow

-How to access and experience flow

-Unexpected life experiences that can help us understand flow better

-How to uncover our points of resistance to flow

-Why responsibility is a trigger word for most people 

-What is radical ownership?

-Understand that you cannot take ownership of other people’s actions

-Ways to take control of your life and your actions

-The importance of healing from your past and living in the present

-Practical ways to live more consciously

-Redefining responsibility 

-Why you need to take ownership of past trauma

-Why money is such a triggering topic

-The three topics that activate people the most

-The dos and don’ts of caring about money
