Signal with Mory & Melissa

In this special episode of Signal, Mory welcomes prolific writer, performer, trans-activist, and dear friend, Alok Vaid-Menon. Here you’ll find a candid discussion of Alok’s experience with intuition and learn more about their unique perspective on the topic, including how it affects their fight for equal rights in a marginalized community, the notion that intuition is largely the work of privilege, and how coming into alignment with their signal was instrumental in realizing the power they always had but were never fully aware of. Mory shares some of her past experiences of working with Alok and explains why they are such an endless source of inspiration in her mission to help people align with their signal! To learn more about Alok and their writing, speaking, and activism: www.alokvmenon.com

Raising kids is hard enough without the constant external pressure and judgement from others. So how do you ignore all that noise and tap into your Signal as a parent? And can you help your kids be more intuitive? As Mory will explain in this episode, parenting is likely the most naturally intuitive relationship we will experience in life. The primary blocker to intuitive parenting is actually our own ego. As parents, we are constantly tempted to project our own trauma and fear onto our children and assume the same outcomes for them as we had. It’s a deterministic pattern that isn’t good for them or us. Keep listening this week to hear Mory explain some of the unique challenges of certain parenting perspectives, and how to use your inner wisdom to guide you and help your kids become fully empowered. 

Picture this: you’ve done the work, listened to your intuition, and have tapped into the signal of your higher self. You’re feeling inspired and happier than before, so how does this transformation affect your relationships with others? Can we lead others to this journey of self-alignment? This week, Mory will give us the honest answer; focusing all our energy on tuning into our own signals and not judging others on their journeys is the most important step. Listen as Mory tells us how to do just that by reminding us: If it’s forced, we’re in danger of becoming preachers instead of teachers! 

Every single one of us experiences fear, almost on a daily basis, so how exactly does this commonplace emotion interact with our intuition? This week, Mory gets into fear, where it starts, how we manage it with more compassion and ultimately, how if left unchecked, it can be the biggest block to our intuitive signal – leaving us stagnant and frustrated. In this episode Mory shows us how to work with fear, asking it for evidence and questioning its roots….who implanted this fear? Why am I feeling fearful and is this feeling based in fact? Answering honestly and with rigor, as Mory will explain, is one of the first steps to unlocking our intuition and moving past fear. 

Welcome to Signal! In this season opener, Mory breaks down a mysterious word: intuition. Throughout history, intuition has been vilified and mistrusted, and Mory talks about how we’re still experiencing this in our culture today. Ultimately, our intuition has the power to be a cosmic radio-tower that tells us our purpose; it rings loud and clear, but the world inevitably causes static. Listen in to learn how to cut through the noise and hear your signal clearly to live your life in alignment with your purpose!

I hope listeners of Signal believe they don’t have to settle for conformity and want the steps to a more fulfilled and purposeful existence from my insights. As listeners engage with this podcast I believe they will walk away with a belief in their intuition, a clear understanding about how to tune into it, even when they are stressed or fearful and ultimately a renewed sense of trust in themselves and a sense of awe for their own internal power.
