Introducing my new podcast – Words Are Vibrations. As much as I loved the Homesick Alien Club branding, I’m at a point in my life where I am prioritizing focus and simplicity, so we’re bringing it all back home. Words Are Vibrations is a podcast at the intersection of creativity, consciousness, and culture. I will be chatting with writers, artists, healers, and change makers from all walks of life to reawaken our inherent creative nature. Thoughts are intentions. Actions are rituals....

No, I'm not ending the podcast. I'm just simplifying my branding. Listen to hear why. I also share a few thoughts about the state of the world from a spiritual and energetic perspective, and why I believe it is inevitable that the universe will find a way to restore order and balance to the state of global politics.

There is a lot of talk about advanced technology these days, from web3, blockchain, crypto, and the metaverse. What does this new technology mean for the future of humanity? Is it part of the evolution of consciousness? Or does it further separate us from spirit and source? In this special episode, which features myself being interviewed by my friend Michael Phillip for his podcast Third Eyes Drops, we dive deep into these questions to try to unravel the relationship between technology and...

Taylor Eyewalker has administered the potent South American medicine kambo to thousands of people (including me). Kambo is a special frog secretion long used as a medicine by Amazonian shamans.  It is known to induce intense vomiting and clear the body of unwanted energies. In this episode, we discuss my own (intense) kambo experience, Taylor’s journey as a healing, how kambo works, and how people can engage with Indigenous medicines in a way that is safe, sustainable, and respectful.  Taylor...

Terence McKenna is one of my favorite thinkers and biggest influences. You could call him a "psychedelic philosopher." He was lightyears ahead of his time as a thinker and researcher at the intersection of spirituality, psychedelics, and cyberspace.  This is a recording of his last known interview, from October 1998.  It is one of the best explanations I've heard for the state of the world in 2021 and beyond. Terence said that the human species is accelerating toward a world of increasing...

Michael Phillip is one of my favorite thinkers on the internet. As a self-described "wonder junky" and host of the popular podcast, Third Eye Drops, Michael is well versed in topics ranging from spirituality to science to ancient wisdom. He holds space for all sorts of fascinating ideas without being overly attached to any of them. In this episode we discuss the difference between science and spirituality, the ancient knowledge of Hermeticism, and what it was like for both of us growing up...

Elizabeth April is one of my favorite people (and an actual homesick alien). She’s a YouTuber, podcast host,  author, and all around interdimensional badass. Elizabeth is probably best known for her work “channeling” what she called the “Galactic Federation,” a council of interdimension beings who are working behind the scenes to steer humanity in a positive direction.  If you find this hard to believe, that’s okay. You don’t have to take it literally. One of my favorite mottos is “Everything...

It’s story time! In 2017, I published my first book, Sh#t Your Ego Says, with Hay House. At the time, I had no audience or marketing platform whatsoever. I probably had a couple hundred Instagram followers, all of whom were friends and family. I had yet to make a single meme. I was a complete unknown. So how was I able to sign a book deal with one of the most famous self-help publishers? Honestly, it’s an adventure story. There’s no template. You can’t get there by following someone else’s...

The world is changing fast.  It's time for us to change too. The people I know who are truly thriving in this time of rapid transition are those who are most willing to release their attachment to the people they used to be and emerge from the fire of change transformed. It's time for gangster-level authenticity 🔥🔥🔥 Change is never comfortable. But in the long run, the pain of staying the same is much greater than the temporary pain of change. Consider this episode your permission to...

Chelsie Diane is a poet, mother, wild woman, and one of the most resilient and authentic people I know. She wears her (big) heart on her sleeve and helps others do the same. In this episode, we talk about her creative process, how to be bold and vulnerable on social media, plant medicine, manifestation through poetry, and how creativity can be a spiritual path and practice unto itself. We also discuss her recent trip to Costa Rica where she experienced both love and heartbreak. (If you...

The world is full of chaotic and unstable energy right now. In this short solo episode, I talk about how preserving and protecting our own energetic presence is the best way we can serve others during these challenging times. Turn off the news and tune into the place of deep peace and stability within yourself, beneath the chaotic waves of change. Follow me on Instagram @wordsarevibrations

Emma Zeck is one of the most talented writers I know. She is also a bold and poetic truth teller who shares her personal growth with an open heart and radical vulnerability. In this episode we discuss her writing process, her mother’s (Ali Zeck) mental health journey, and a recent rendezvous to Costa Rica where she found love, tried ayahuasca for the first time, and was even arrested and thrown into a Costa Rican jail.  Emma is overflowing with life, love, and creativity, and you’re going to...

On the first official episode of Homesick Alien Club, we welcome one of my favorite homesick aliens, Jessa Reed. Jessa is a comedian, podcast host, and reluctant spiritual teacher. In this episode we discuss Jessa's fascinating origin story (which includes her dying from a drug overdose and coming back to life) and what is happening across the globe today from a spiritual and energetic perspective. Jessa is the best, and this is a can't-miss episode. Please subscribe to join the Homesick...

You guys, I'm super excited to share a very special piece I wrote in 2020 in Los Angeles. At the time (and still now) the energy in the world felt super heavy and unstable.  This piece came to me like a bolt of lightning and I wrote it down as fast as I...
