We discuss what life feels like when we reclaim our autonomy, attention, and intention by turning our phone back into a tool that works for us, rather than us being caught in cycles of addiction (because smartphones and apps are psychologically addictive and designed to be so). And gosh, is Light the complete opposite of that.

Today's conversation explores the ultimate question of "When do I walk away from something?" through Alex's graciousness to share her story with us.
It is a powerful reflection on cultural ideas around "quitting" that are deeply ingrained in many of us - is choosing something new or different quitting? What is quitting? Why might our view of endings prevent us from letting go of what no longer serves us and stepping into what can?
What we learn through this journey is that walking away is a liberator and catalyst for growth and expansion. I don't call that quitting, I call that empowerment.

40:47 After she closed the chapter, Alex had an “identity crisis” - no sense of who she was or what she liked without it and reaching out for support and coming to see its important to move on from certain phases of our lives
49:54 how this applies to so much and looking at it through the lens of my eating disorder recovery and transitions; “not turning back is really important for your growth and being uncomfortable is just so important to learn more about yourself” - Alex
55:32 Alex’s passion to bring awareness to this topic, how our adversity gives us gifts, and why it’s so important to talk about all aspects of life, not just the light
1:11:46 where we find ourselves today with burnout culture and singular pursuits and how this applies to all we do thru the example of building RE SELF and being open about taking about my experience in an abusive relationship

Ever wonder why we live the way we do? The cost it comes at to our well-being, connections, and Mother Earth? Maybe it's time to evolve the way we live to improve our holistic well-being and society. And Vaughn's got more than a few ideas; he's a man with a big plan (and sold baby steps for us to take today).
I sat down with Vaughn to discuss the role of housing in conscious living and how he's changing housing through the work of the company he founded, Unoma Haus. Unoma Haus is a property technology company that builds smart modular spaces for eco-conscious consumers to live and work more sustainably.

We’re going on a journey into the dark depths of our being to feel the heaviness of winter and reap the benefits of doing so before the festival of light in the holiday season.
Many of us feel a sadness during these “merry” times be it loss, grief, loneliness, or unhealed wounds that surface. It chokes us when we suppress it; when we try to avoid it; when we don’t make space to hold ourselves. Here, humbly, is that invitation and space. I hope it serves.

Growing up Anna suffered from night terrors, which grew into anxiety and panic attacks. She overcame both through meditation. As a mom, Anna wanted to give her children the same beneficial tool. The problem was (knowing the harms of our devices) that most guided meditations take place on an app or social media. So Anna created the screen-free meditation device, Zenimal.

We're diving into a (long) conversation I had (don't worry, timestamps below) many moons ago with videographer, fine artist, and YouTuber, Sam Lewis (better known on the internet as SLEW) in his Brooklyn studio.
Among many reasons, I was curious to talk to Sam because his flourishing on his own, self-made path is not the norm from where we’re from. We both attended the same school in Connecticut and, (as you can imagine) I resonate with and am fascinated by those that take (and make) their own way despite their environment's messaging.

Intro Song: Summer in December by eeryskies
I sat down with Jules Bonasera, the founder and creator of Conscious Conversations the card game for a curious conversation about ~ life ~ Jules created this game to bring us closer, deeper by asking the big questions of ourselves and each other. As we say on As It Goes, "conversations help us along the way." We cover a broad range of topics as we philosophize and ask some deep questions from the game. Conversations like these are food for the soul; I live for them. Come along with us! Guaranteed: a novel outcome.

We begin with how Conscious Conversations was born from a dark time (01:09), the magic that happens when we peel back layers of ourselves for deep conversations and get vulnerable (03:15), and the power of introducing new questions to break up repetitive thinking (06:29). Jules shares some research on secrets to a good life and the role of our connections (10:35). Then Jules explains a beautiful, simple, yet profound gratitude meditation to do before each meal and highlights how RE SELF helps us make this our authentic way of being (16:55). Next we discuss greed, individualism, and embracing our humanness while holding ourselves accountable with compassion to do better (20:50). We then talk about childhood trauma and trauma as part of our human experience, acceptance as medicine, and the empowerment that comes from reframing our past narrative (24:47) before Jules shares how a tree taught her about intergenerational trauma (30:12). Then we answer a question from the deck: What book has inspired you the most & why?...hint: depression & presence (34:40). Then we riff on the spiritual dimension of being human and fighting for the future by being our authentic self (49:25). Jules offers us an essential reminder and story about why philanthropy and contributing to the Good of Being is not a big to-do (57:43). We discuss sparking conversations with strangers & shifting our perspective to hope as Jules shares a deeply moving story that brings us both to tears and a simple, powerful way to shift a bad day (1:02:21). We answer two more questions from the deck: You have the opportunity to meet Jesus, Buddha, or Muhammad, what do you talk about? (1:11:09) and What doesn’t make sense to you in life?... and what we can do about it (1:17:35).

How do we live a good life? What is a good life? This question is one of the greatest philosophical questions and its answer is why RE SELF exists. We’re talking about how conscious, authentic living fosters contentment, meaning, and flourishing, i.e. the "what" and "how to" of living a good life, fully, and the link between one's good life and the Good of Being.

We start with equations for dissatisfaction and contentment (01:53), discerning what is inauthentic and unconscious within us (15:05) and nourishing our authenticity and conscious nature (24:42). We discuss how and why to create our authentic, handmade life (27:32). Then we dive into our birthright of living consciously and authentically (33:43), the complexity of being human and how each human’s authenticity empowers us (36:51). We look at the role of presence in conscious, authentic living, the hero’s journey (39:31), and the fulfillment of being authentic (48:35). How this enables our living in harmony with the deep truth of life, Oneness, ourselves as Oneness, and why this is life-changing to live it (55:24). We discuss how we live consciously and authentically (1:07:27), why RE SELF exists (1:32:48), and some ways to enact and integrate this conversation today (1:36:08).

Art is a uniquely human endeavour. For that, it is fascinating to explore why we, as animals, have this internal drive to create and share art. In this episode of the series “_____ in Our Human Experience,” I sat down with artist and mentor Marco Santini to discuss his work and the importance of art in our lives.
One question I didn’t ask Marco was, “Are we all creative?” Upon reflection, I believe I didn’t ask, not because I forgot, but because I remember - we are all creative. Creativity expresses itself differently through each of us. Why? Because we are the continuation of Creation itself. Creativity isn’t relegated to only the creation of art. Creativity, at its core, is the expression of authenticity, the sharing of our gifts (however that looks for each of us) - in doing so, we create and live a “handmade” life. That is the ultimate creation.

How Marco got started (3:09). Then we discuss art as a career and what comes from moving past debilitating limiting mindsets around taking that leap of faith (5:54). Marco shares about mentoring to create “confidence to share your creativity” so more people share their gifts with the world (9:23). We explore the necessity of art beyond “beauty” and aesthetics and why Marco says, “art is not about the physical piece at all. art is about storytelling" (10:36). Through Marco's engaged creative process and mural, we highlight the immense impact of asking deeply valuable questions such as “what do I value” in community (13:00), which leads Marco to tell the story of how we met and the beauty of art creating connections (18:05). He shares about following his interest to study linguistic anthology in university and the shift from anthropology and understanding the broad diversity of humanity to realizing his real core love was going into communities understanding who they are and representing them as they are (20:18). Naturally, this highlights how surrendering to what is often allows it to turn out better than we planned (24:50). We dive into what is art and why is it necessary (27:29) before I ask Marco the worst question one could ask an artist, “what’s your favourite piece?” (31:53). Then Marco shares about being an artist in the 21st century and his perspective on "the necessary evil of social media" (33:36) before discussing NFT’s, the RE SELF invitation “join us in the real world,” and my photography series I developed during COVID (41:24).

I sat down on a sunny afternoon with Ashley Pradhan and Cierra Valor co-founders of In Bold Print. to talk about the role of conscious consumption, business, and their venture in conscious living. We discuss creating a conscious business, intentionality in relationships, embracing discomfort and the unknown, working cyclically, balance, fulfillment, and freedom.
Whether you’re interested in entrepreneurship, business, or not, this conversation offers so much nourishment for us to apply to all aspects of our own journeys as we gather and share our unique experiences and perspectives collected along the way, especially when they are different from our experiences and interests.
IN BOLD PRINT. is a venture-backed startup with a product sustainability scoring platform for brands and retailers, making it easy for us as consumers to normalize conscious consumption as our way of being. (Could RE SELF be more aligned?!)

Ashley and Cierra join me and introduce themselves (05:14), taking a moment to discuss boxing and finding movement that resonates with your unique being (06:37). We naturally discuss balancing interests in our lives and how that can look in our relationships (10:57). (Finally) we get to IN BOLD PRINT. (17:48) and conscious consumption (20:20). We highlight the joy of repurposing “waste” and creating a second life for it (26:10) before hearing Cierra’s and Ashley’s journeys to being conscious consumers (34:24). Then Ashley provides us with a framework to begin or evolve our conscious consumption (40:11). We dive into creating a conscious business from the inside out (56:51) through introspection, humanness, and openness; balancing the masculine and feminine in business as fundamental (1:03:25). We end by discussing essential elements of experiencing fulfillment and freedom (1:16:41).

We begin looking at our modern context and the role of conscious living and oneness as an essential part of our evolution from where we find ourselves today. (01:42) We break down ‘what is oneness’? (6:26) and why begin with our suffering to experience oneness and its role in our development as a fully actualized human (10:36). From there we must eliminate all that antagonizes our experience and embodiment of oneness (19:37). We get into those practices that empower our experience of oneness and ourselves as oneness (33:46), with an interim to touch on “food of the gods” (51:36). We end with which RE SELF resources can offer support as you begin to intentionally practice experiencing oneness (1:07:14).

We ease into the conversation by talking about the joy of candles and Bilden Farmacy’s candles before introducing examples signs and synchronicities (02:28). We take a moment to address our skepticism with openness and some research related to the subject (05:44). We divulge into (as one must in this context) talking about the question: Is life meaningful or do we give it meaning? (15:09) before we can discuss what signs add to our daily lived experience of life, interconnection and guidance on our path and truth (24:49). Then we discuss and define synchronicities according to Carl Jung and sings according to Laura Lynn Jackson (27:04). Pausing to discuss the perspective of “crossing over” as an alternative to “passing away”, the Buddhist perspective on death, and the necessity of feeding our soul with the “mystical” (28:26). Returning to signs, we review some examples of signs received from the book, my life, and what Laura calls “default signs” (34:03). We reflect on the necessary role of becoming an active participant in receiving signs and synchronicities (41:41) before returning to Jung and the roles of symbols (signs, and synchronicities) in our lives (43:12) to illuminate the meaning present in our existence and lives (46:16). Finally, concluding with quick tips on how to get started and be an active participant in asking for and receiving signs and synchronicities (50:12).
