The New Beyond with Dr Judith Rich

My guest this week is Brandee Safran, a  Certified Transformational Coach and yoga therapist for women who want to boldly take full ownership of their health, freedom and joy so they create a legacy they are proud of.  She supports women to believe in themselves, to tune into their bodies' wisdom to promote healing and take inspired action to bring their goals to life. Her journey started at age 14, when she was diagnosed with Crohn’s disease. She spent much of her teenage years suffering from painful attacks caused by the inflammation of the disease, but it launched her into a spiritual path and led to her discovery of yoga in 1988. Brandee has pioneered many programs, such as yoga for digestive health, yoga for pelvic floor, women’s school of ecstatic awakening, and workshops in recovery.  She has a special ability to help women get unstuck after experiencing, loss, divorce, a diagnosis, or life transition. Today she’s on a mission to activate women into the leaders they were meant to be.  Brandee is passionate about sacred community and leads a sacred sisterhood called inspired wise women leadership.

3-31 From Blind Spot to BFO What is it about blind spots that can often derail us?   When something arises to which we were previously blind, it always shows up like a shock with a visceral, physical, emotional, or psychological impact. And it is often not something that lands gently. And here’s the thing:  everyone has them.  Even the most brilliant minds in the world have blind spots.   In this episode, we’re going to examine the phenomenon of blind spots and how they keep us from being as effective as we might want to be in areas of our lives like career and relationships.   Tune in as we explore how something can go from being in our “blind” area, to being a BFO.  Wonder what that is?  You’ll learn about BFO’s in this episode, and you’ll discover why feedback is an important tool for bringing our blind areas forwards into our conscious awareness.   You’ll learn about the Four Spheres of Knowing and where your biggest blind spots reside. And you’ll learn about what it takes to turn your blind spots into BFO’s.   Join me in this adventure of discovering what your blind spots reveal about you.   ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~  ANNOUNCEMENTS AND REMINDERS Available for purchase on the ⁠website: ⁠ Judith’s best selling book- Beyond the Box:  Lean Out, Break Free, Rise Up!,now available in 2 new formats:          Audiobook (English only)  eBook- English and Spanish Join our private Facebook Group-⁠ Living in The New Beyond:  ⁠ ********************************* Theme music: “Each of Us”  Written and Performed by Ken Ashby Produced by Gopal Metro © Copyright ProsodyMusic  –All Rights Reserved Used by Permission  ********************************  Lastly, dear listeners, a request of support-  Please take a moment and share this podcast with others, leave a review and follow us on Apple, Spotify and other podcast platforms.  It does make a difference and I really appreciate your support!   I love hearing from you, receiving your feedback about the podcast or the FB group or anything else that’s on your heart.  Don’t hesitate to reach out and connect.   Many blessings, Judith

S3 E30 The Union of Science and Spirituality - Aaron Glassman In 1996, my guest, Aaron Glassman, experienced what he refers to as his “awakening”, while meditating inside the King’s Chamber of the Great Pyramid of Egypt.

3-29 Codes of Connection - Interview by Beth Osmer This week’s episode is the audio of my interview as a guest speaker on a summit hosted by Beth Osmer. The summit was called Codes of Connection.   In this interview, I share my journey as a transformational and leadership development trainer for nearly fifty years.  In response to Beth’s questions, we discuss: What are transformational trainings? Why do people do this work? What kinds of people are drawn to doing it? How does the process work? What material lies in the subconscious mind? How can we support people accessing their subconscious minds and connecting with their undeveloped potential? What is the nature of the 90% of undeveloped potential?  What is my personal vision and what keeps me connected to the work? What is next for me? I share my perception that it takes great courage to be a human being.  It takes courage to be born, and it takes courage to die.  It takes courage just to live on planet Earth today, given all the changes and challenges we are all facing.    I also discuss about importance of having a vision that centers and grounds one, like a North Star.  In times of great change and challenge, our vision is something to true up to.  Join me in this powerful and insightful conversation about the importance of being connected throughout our lives.   ~~~~~~~~~~~~~  Available for purchase on the website:    Judith’s best selling book- Beyond the Box:  Lean Out, Break Free, Rise Up!,now available in 2 new formats:                     Audiobook (English only)  eBook- English and Spanish  *********** Join our private Facebook Group- Living in The New Beyond:   ************* Theme music: “Each of Us”  Written and Performed by Ken Ashby Produced by Gopal Metro © Copyright ProsodyMusic  –All Rights Reserved Used by Permission  ************************* Lastly, dear listeners, a request of support…….

S3 E25 Becoming an Empowered Elder This week’s episode is the edited version of an interview Judith did for the speaker series, “Wise Women Rising”, hosted by Brandee Safran.   In this interview, Judith reflects on what it means to her to be a wise woman leader and shares about her experiences growing up at a time when there were few female role models as leaders, especially in the field of transformational trainings.   She shares about how it was a “boy’s club” and how out of alignment she felt coming up through a system that rewarded masculine traits and ways of thinking and how she pushed the boundaries and innovated the ways that work could be expressed.  Judith shares her own journey of becoming an empowered elder, one that continues to this day as she says, “we are always becoming, we are evolving.”  “If we remain curious and open to new possibilities, If we can stay in “beginner’s mind” and be a life-long learner, no matter how old we are, life will present opportunities to create, remain relevant and live a life that matters.” Tune in and hear Judith’s personal journey to becoming an empowered elder.  ~~~~~~~~~~~ ANNOUNCEMENTS AND REMINDERS Available for purchase on the website:     Judith’s best selling book- Beyond the Box:  Lean Out, Break Free, Rise Up!,now available in 2 new formats:                     Audiobook (English only)  eBook- English and Spanish  *********** Join our private Facebook Group- Living in The New Beyond:   ************* Lastly, dear listeners, a request of support…….
