Are you Locked and Loaded, ready for life? We've talked lots about your WHY (your passion, your mission). This time we pair it with your true form of self-expression to get that fire to the surface!

Here's the link to Craig Harper's podcasts - the one I refer to is "The You Project" episode #1066 This episode is also available as a blog post:...

We expect pretty much everything to end up in the dump, including our most valuable asset - our human body. The key word is "expect". Our expectation that the human form will degrade, start to slip up, break down and fall out could be the reason it ends that way. And it could be the subconscious reason that we begin new healthy ways of life, only to abandon them days, weeks or months later. Today, we explore possibilities. The possibility of crafting a new expectation. One that...

No right. No Wrong. No Good. No bad. Just what is. My dad used this phrase so often it was burned in my mind long before I actually understood it. Now, I understand it to be the common theme across lightworkers today, Neutrality. I used to think that neutrality (and all of the other words associated with it) were passive. Like hiding away from reality. Putting our heads in the sand, only to bring them out when the turmoil stopped. Well, we know that the turmoil will not stop for the...

The first step is to get clear on our mission. Okay, some form of hazy clarity is really all that's needed....

Here we go! Diving into a topic I didn't want to look at, much less tackle head-on. But today, we're going to do both. Masculine and Feminine energies are at play in our lives.

Today we enter the realm of our self-worth. It's an often-overlooked bit of our self-esteem that can hold us back from reaching that next level anywhere in our lives.

Ever wonder what longevity looks like in the grander, vibrational scheme of things? Today we look at the human body as a mass of individual frequencies, much like an orchestra. There are many levels of orchestra from the pros to the beginners. Our bodies sit somewhere on that spectrum of pleasant to listen to ... all the way to cover-your-ears bad.  Yet all of this work we do to move our bodies, reset our minds and do the things that we talk about on this podcast changes certain...

Stress! Stress! Stress!  Pretty much everything I do is to help myself and others lower the chronic cortisol levels that are making us tired and unhealthy. Enter an even bigger stress...adversity.  Adversity mimetics is a process where we (knowingly and intentionally) introduce the body to stressors that mimic times of hardship.  Why? And doesn't this oppose everything that I stand for and every action I take? Not really. Here, I quickly share how the two dovetail to create a longevity...
