Be Mythical

This week's show is with Shanti Zimmerman. Shanti is a coach who facilitates the crafting of boundaries, emotional resiliency and ownership of a life worth living. What I personally adore about Shanti is how she's so fully expressed and how OK she is with who she is. In this show we explored giving yourself permission to be who you are. We went into how we choose that (because it's very much a choice), creating boundaries, being able to continue being ourselves in the face of other people's disapproval of how we're showing up. What you'll learn from this episode: Choosing to give yourself permission to be yourself - it really is a choice, there isn't a magical moment where it happens to us, it's a choice we can make in any moment to take responsibility for ourselves and what we're putting out into the world. Start speaking to learn what your voice is. We don't need to wait until we have this crystallised sense of who we are and what our voice is before we start speaking ourself into the world. We can be responsible for our impact without shaming or making ourselves wrong for how our actions have landed on others. We have the choice to take full responsibility to be open to receive what the other person feels and to take an action to move things into different place. Shanti sees boundaries as a vital aspect to being fully you, it's about having an internal sense of feeling right with yourself in alignment with your values. It's doesn't need to be something that pleases anyone else in the world, if you feel right with yourself then then that's the boundary right there.

This week's show is with Jørgen Rasmussen, who has seen clients professionally as an agent of change for twenty years, the first eight spent running an "Impossibles practice" with a 'no change, no pay' policy. Having deeply explored NLP, hypnosis, non-duality teachings, developmental psychology and meditation, he is the Author of the books Provocative Hypnosis (2008) and Provocative Suggestions (2015). In this show, Jørgen and I explored the fascinating topic of what he calls waking up and growing up. Or you could call it enlightenment and personal development. And after we dived into those two pretty humungous and contradictory fields we then bravely jumped into the deep end of how to live from the paradox of both waking up and growing up!

This week's show is Lian's All The Everything where she jams on an eclectic mix of topics, including questions from listeners. It also airs weekly live on facebook. This is where you can get up close and personal with Lian, get inside her head and see what's she's up to and thinking about. It also airs live on facebook on the first Friday of every month at 10am. In this episode, Lian talked about... What I’ve been loving lately: books, rocks, movement and more!  How to stop numbing your magic (Or... to remember who you are, you need to forget who they told you to be).

This week's show is with Kenny Mammarella-D'Cruz. Kenny was called "The Man Whisperer" by Newsweek because, not only does he help men achieve their life, relationship and career goals, he also helps men to be more authentically and powerfully who they truly are. As one of the UK’s leading men’s personal development consultants, Kenny runs workshops and sees individuals and couples for private consultations and has been running men’s groups in London for 14 years. Kenny was traumatised at the age of seven when his family had to flee certain death at the hands of the brutal dictator Idi Amin and were resettled as refugees in rural Wales via refugee camps. As a result of post-traumatic stress syndrome, Kenny developed several mental health issues, including obsessive-compulsive disorder, Tourette's syndrome, body dysmorphia and depression with intrusive and suicidal thoughts. Thankfully that’s all behind him now. When asked how he turned it all around, he’s fond of saying that he sat with the shadows that owned him, unlearned the untruths and turned that energy into the fuel to walk his path and live his purpose. In this show we explored what men fear. We spoke about communication amongst our own sex and between the sexes, toxic masculinity, toxic femininity, relationships and how to make them work. As ever, Kenny dropped some real gold - I loved this episode.

This week's show is with Phoenix Na Gig. Phoenix lives in the wild beauty of Cornwall, England. and works with women around the world. Remembering the nature of our womb consciousness, she is part of the ushering in of a new paradigm of awakening feminine nature on the planet. She is fascinated by both the history and the contemporary embodiment and re-emergence of women's wisdom as a journey to healing, balance, wellness and power. She is also an academic research student writing towards a thesis recording the awakening womb experiences of contemporary women in the eco-feminist movement and anthropologically she draws parallels with the suggestion of similar devotion and ancient sacred/religious experience in the womb caves of the Palaeolithic.​ Her own journey began with a sense of magic and wonder and reverence for the natural world. As a young woman she was called to heal after ovarian surgery and look deeper into the uncovering and healing of childhood trauma and assault as an adult, that led her way back to the wisdom of her body and the body of the earth. Phoenix was then diagnosed with Essential Tremor a degenerative condition with (medically) no known cure. She now calls this her Sacred Tremor, without her continuing journey to find balance with the condition she turned it into an advantage and found her way to her womb and the earth. In this show, we explored what Phoenix describes as feminine-inspired leadership, which comes out of the spiritual connection between body and Gaia. This was a delicious episode, overflowing with wisdom and love. I hope you found it as inspiring as I did.

This week's show is with Dr. Tumi Johnson, M.D. Dr Tumi believes that to truly thrive means embracing our wholeness; and she embodies that through all of her work as a physician, poet and dancer. Dr Tumi started out as a mainstream doctor who had a passion for dance that she originally kept very separate. Over the years in a series of twist and turns, dark nights of the soul and unexpected opportunities, she's blended her traditional training, her extensive nutrition expertise, her skill as a yoga teacher and her passion for dance into a unique, holistic and highly effective way of working with her patients, to achieve and sustain their most vibrant well-being. Through her work, she has had many patients heal a myriad of issues ranging from diabetes to hormonal imbalances to persistent weight challenges. In this show, we explored how Dr Tumi works with her patients in a way that isn't limited to the kinds of treatment we might typically consider as medicine, she also includes personalised recommendations for movement that will support them to health.   Dr Tumi gives some brilliantly practical ways to make movement work for you in this deeply medicinal way. I found this such an incredible and illuminating conversation.

This week's show is with Daniel Fox. Daniel is a Speaker, Coach, and Author of Masculine & Feminine Archetypes and Sacred Masculine Rising, Daniel’s purpose is social revolution by helping people align with their life’s purpose. Facilitating personal and organizational transformation for over 12 years, Daniel has created powerful space for thousands of people both in-person and online to experience permanent, life-changing transformation around relationships and dating, as well as their career and business.   In this show, we explored Daniel's work around guiding his clients to understand their signature archetype on the pole of Masculine and Feminine, as well as his added distinction of Light versus Dark. Daniel describes his method as a way to create insight about the instincts and hidden motivations behind everyone you interact with throughout the day. It's a set of lenses that honours everyone for what they bring and finds new ways to work together.   I personally really saw the value of the additional Light/Dark distinction. I also have to say that Daniel's story is fascinating - all in all, it's an incredibly fascinating show.

This week's show is with Tania Elfersey. Tania is an award-winning author and publisher who has spent several years researching what causes and cures the emotional and physical symptoms associated with perimenopause and menopause. By weaving her knowledge of midlife women's health with the principles of innate health, Tania successfully cured her own range of symptoms, 100% naturally.  Tania is committed to helping women learn more about their bodies at midlife and through coaching, teaching and writing, Tania guides women to the simple and natural cures for perimenopause and menopause symptoms, which are available to us all.   In this show, we explored the power of women deeply understanding this aspect of their natural cycle - the perimenopause and menopause. Tania shared what can happen when we don't understand this sensitive time and the gifts that come with aligning and even celebrating this time of powerful natural change.

This week's show is with Rion Kati. Rion is a Reiki Master,  an Advanced Tantra Educator and he is the voice of the Powerliminals meditations and founder of the Natural Grounding method of sex transmutation which has 1000s of male practitioners. He has been serving men for 16 years as a natural dating and soul purpose alignment coach and he is now focusing on his work with women. Rion has a unique background in that he has meditated for 14,000 hours with meta feminine archetypes giving him special abilities and practical insight into allure, sexuality, archetypes, reading energy and professional image. In this show we explored allure - what it is and isn't. Why so many women today lack it and how we can embody and express more of it. This is a fascinating topic - I felt that Rion and this show provided a uniquely deep journey into a topic we as a culture typically obsess over but only at a shallow level. I loved it!
