Awakening Together

When I think about the times we’re in and this moment of history and all that is being revealed to us, all that we haven’t seen, all that we have forgotten, when that all comes together in flashes of insight and wholeness, clear intuitive guidance, then we’re touching on that place in ourselves that already knows - this is innate and we are naturally multidimensional with more capacities than we yet realize. We must recognize that we are at a collective fork in the road and we need to upgrade our capacities, attune to the highest frequencies of ourselves, listen deeply to the wisdom inherent in our life.  This deep gnosis, that knowing beyond what we were told, beyond what we learned in school or what we were raised with, that’s touching into the heart of who we truly are.  There are many ways to do that, through direct experience, teachings, books, teachers, life experience, perennial wisdom, the transmission through all the major religions and the mystical paths, and from life Herself, from the intelligence of Gaia and Divine Wholeness. And my next guest will weave many of those strands together in an exquisite embodiment that will inspire and welcome you to step into more of your greatness.  Her name is Sarah Drew and she’s a dear friend who is “the visionary author of the eco-feminist novel, GAIA CODEX, which catalyzes powerful blueprints for the future deeply rooted in the gnosis of the past.  Sarah has been a featured speaker at the graduate level and at organizations such as Google, ABC Deepak Homebase, and Bioneers, and she is currently a popular teacher and mentor for women worldwide on topics such as Feminine Wisdom, Evolutionary Culture. and Regenerative Technologies. Her work expresses a deep curiosity and a polymathic approach to exploring multiple disciplines with a focus on humanity’s evolution, the cultivation of compassion and our multi-generational nurturance of Mother Earth.” This is 7 generation thinking. We will touch on all of this in our conversation, and we do so in a deeply personal way that has repercussions for the collective and our global community.  She also shares some of her personal practices from her spiritual lineage and the divine feminine lineage of women who remember.  Toward the end she guides us into a simple yet profound visualization practice to bring forth a future that aligns with the more beautiful world we know, the vibrant seeds waiting to blossom in our hearts. I invite you to listen deeply, this is a transmission and conversation situated inside a pulsing field of life.  The way you listen will reveal what it is that you most need to hear.  Join us in this intimate container with Sarah who is a true catalyst for the transformation of culture and an activator for the role of women stepping into their fullness and majesty.  And you’ll be invited to participate at the very end in a wonderful collective intention!  And again, if you enjoy this, please share it and offer your comments and feedback which we deeply welcome.

Hello everyone, thank you for joining us on Awakening Together. This next conversation with Tomas Bjorkman is a very meaningful one for the times we’re in right now. You might say it is right and timely. So much of Tomas’ focus in the world is about cultivating the inner capacities of people as well as the collective capacities that can make the biggest difference. One of his projects he’s been developing is the Inner Development Goals and Summit, all designed to support this inner growth and maturation of individuals so you can start deepening your own inner growth practices. One of the greatest things we can do as Gandhi said is “Be the change you want to see in the world.” Tomas Björkman is an author and social entrepreneur with great interest in science and philosophy. He used to be an investment banker and property developer working all over Europe. He has founded several companies and organizations, including Investment Banking Partners AB. Ten years ago, he founded the Ekskäret Foundation, with the aim of supporting sustainable development for individuals, organizations and society.

My next guest is a wise soul who combines the best of a scientific understanding of the cosmos with a deeply spiritual and intuitive knowing of the deeper reality all around us.  This story of the unity and convergence of science and the primary nature of consciousness is one of the gifts she brings to us.  Dr. Jude Currevan is a delightful human with a natural and highly contagious joy that exudes from her.  She is also a cosmologist, planetary healer, futurist, author, previously one of the most senior business women in the UK and co-founder of WholeWorld-View. For the last twenty-five years she has lived in the sacred landscape of Avebury. She has experienced multidimensional realities since early childhood and has worked with the wisdom keepers both incarnate and discarnate of many traditions.

Welcome everyone once again to Awakening Together. I’m your host Sheri Herndon and as always I’m very happy to be here. This is what I consider to be a sacred container. I have a great love for containers because they are the membranes around a field, around a conversation, a group, a potential, an emerging potential. This conversation is a container. We tend to not think of it that way but when we go deeper into the scientific understanding, or innerstanding, of energetic fields and our combined biofields and the nonlocal fields, we begin to see more of reality, we experience the veils dissolving, we see through the glass darkly and then face to face. Our next conversation is a deepening of the conversation I had with Anneloes Smitman on becoming future humans part 1. What was clear in that episode is that we covered a lot of terrain and now it’s time to go deeper. By going deeper we will be going under the more superficial top layer, and thus are bringing in more of the wholeness that we can access within ourselves. So think of this conversation as an exploration within yourself. For more information and show notes, go to www.awakeningtogether.one

Hello everyone, welcome, I’m your host Sheri Herndon and we’re here again for another inspiring conversation. I recorded this dialogue about two months ago to the day and for a variety of reasons it’s just now getting out. And it’s perfect because some of the themes we’ve been seeing over the past 6 episodes there’s a weaving here and we’re seeing these themes being amplified again organically in this conversation. I want to invite you into a kind of mini moment of sense-making, because when we are paying attention to the continuity of a conversation, like this podcast, this isn’t just a set of discrete conversations, they are telling a story, they are laying down a new pathway, we can begin to see emerging patterns, and discover that we’re learning and unlearning as we’re in the process of deeply listening.

Welcome everyone to Awakening Together. This next episode goes really deep into the heart of the new social DNA of an awakening culture. With my guest Tibet Sprague, we cover alot of terrain, starting with how we live in community, embody our values, stay connected when it gets difficult and do the healing work necessary for cocreation. It’s potent and enlivening to fully inquire together into what it takes to build a new culture, what are these building blocks from healing relationships to building deep and trusted friendships, navigating through the disconnection, as well as what will it take to birth these next generation of technologies, platforms and social networks. This is what is so inspiring because Tibet because he is bringing a whole systems way of embodying new culture. This is our collective creative opportunity to give birth to a human culture that is mature enough that we can actually work together in order to create a new kind of social coordination system for a planet in transition. We’ll hear wonderful examples of living together, working together, and working on a tech platform. Such a unique convergence. What will it really take to shift into Game B, the Infinite Game, or become a coherent superorganism for a regenerative culture. Basically we are talking about creating community, the kind that builds a beautiful structure of belonging. We’ll hear about the way of council, how it works in community and with for purpose businesses, as well as in a home, family, community. Here are living prototypes of the new operating system in action. Wisdom in action. We’ll learn about the Terran Collective and Hylo, a pro social platform, and ultimately as Tibet likes to say building a platform for stewardship of the planet. I think you will enjoy this, check out the show notes, subscribe and share with your friends and I am grateful that you are here. All feedback, comments and questions are welcome. It’s wonderful to share the things that inspire me with all of you. For links, bio, and show notes, go to www.awakeningtogether.one

Welcome to the next episode of Awakening Together.  I hope you love this next conversation as much as I did.  It’s so full of wisdom and insight and plenty of invitations of where we can uplevel our capacities..  My guest is Katharine Roske and she has been a leader and elder in the regenerative movement and intentional communities.  She and her husband and partner Makasha Roske have been exploring their own personal and social development their whole lives  So they have tremendous lived experience. They live in community on 500 acres called HTLC in New Mexico.  They are a living lab for the new planetary Operating System. For them cocreation is a relational path to awakening.  It’s also at the heart of all our social systems - how we govern ourselves, how we make decisions, how we deal with conflict, how we heal and how we create, give, steward, all of it. They’ve been stewarding this land for several decades, tending sacred sites and sacred springs and discovering their greatest social potential.  This is a small taste of what it will take to cultivate the capacities for resilience that are needed now more than ever.  We’ll hear about the power of conscious evolution and the need for anchoring in the feminine intelligence at the center of all that we do. The story of Hummingbird is to imagine culture where trust, safety, resonance and love are at the foundation.  We’re exploring the social grammar of cocreation.  I hope you enjoy the conversation and please reach out and share if it inspires you.

Join us in an empowering conversation with Dr. Anneloes Smitsman as our first guest on Awakening Together.  She has a Phd in systems change, an international law degree, she’s spent years in Australia being initiated in aboriginal ways and the dreamtime, she’s the co-author of The Future Humans Trilogy with Dr. Jean Houston, and is a teacher extraordinaire. In this episode Anneloes elegantly weaves together the latest scientific understanding with indigenous knowledge aligned with the intelligence of the cosmos.  The simple wisdom she gained from her time in Australia around how to trust that the universe has your back and you can surrender into your greatest potential without struggle.  Essentially becoming more intimate with the intelligence of nature, within us and around us and between us.  These are skills we all need to hone and practice to come into our greatest potential and to be in right relationship with life.  We also explore how we can unite our individual innate gifts with the intelligence of Nature and the Cosmos to turn on our latent capacities - thus enabling us to step more clearly into our power, purpose and passion.  This conversation is hopeful and inspiring as we focussed on who we are becoming as future humans and what is our greatest potential.  This is valuable especially given the many crises we face as a civilization.  Not only does Anneloes share her vision of the future potential we all have, but she brings in clear scientific understanding of the new paradigm to help us see more of the patterns of the cosmos as they live inside each of us.  We go on a journey into understanding the nature of system change and how this “chaos window” moment’ we are facing on earth is a tipping point for us all to stand even more in our greatness and our collective imaginal capacities. Anneloes’ second book co-authored with Dr Jean Houston is titled: "Return of the Avatars: The Cosmic Architect Tools Of Our Future Becoming,” and has just been published and is available on futurehumans.world. Bio: Dr. Anneloes Smitsman, Ph.D., LLM, is a futurist, bestselling author, scientist, and systems architect. Her unique educational programs, systemic strategies, and practices have empowered thousands of people and organizations from around the world.
