For the fifth episode of Beyond Skepticism, Marina Galán — professional speaker, companion, and Vice President of the 3PGC — joins Michael Imas for a conversation about authenticity, surrender, and success.We explore in depth how people often create a sense of lack in their minds and then try to fill it with external achievements — but also what alternative ways of navigating life are available.At the end, Marina shares a deeply personal and powerful breakthrough.This is one of the most raw and unfiltered conversations I’ve ever facilitated. The questions weren’t prepared — and the depth Marina brought still impacts me, even two months after recording.DONATIONSIf you want to support the channel, here's my PayPal: paypal.me/MichaelImasDELINKSIf you'd like to know more of  @MarinaGalana , check out her website at https://www.marinagalan.com/ and her instagram at https://www.instagram.com/marinagalana/INTERACTIONIf you have questions, suggestions or anything else you want to share: comment below!
