105. Connecting to Higher Consciousness and Creating Core Harmony and Coherence in Your Home, Space and Self with Sound Technology, Music, Geometry, Vogel-Cut Crystals and Ross Newkirk
Hello and welcome back to Awakening Aphrodite!
You’ve probably heard me talk a lot about the importance of understanding how your environment affects your health, mindset, emotional wellness and perspective in life. It’s truly indisputable that everything: from the food we eat, to the media we consume, to the people and creatures we interact with on a daily basis shape who (and how!) we are in a very real way. That’s why I am thrilled to present you with today’s guest, Ross Newkirk, whose inventions actively upgrade the coherence of the immediate environment while harmonizing the electromagnetic fields and constant distractions we each face in our world today.
Let’s be honest… It's really difficult to find your joy while constantly navigating the many stressors and responsibilities of the typical lifestyle! I have to tell you that Ross Newkirk’s Core Harmonizer absolutely changed my LIFE in that regard, and I don’t make that claim lightly! You’ll hear my personal story about my first time using it in this episode… An amazing experience that completely took me by surprise.
In this episode you can also look forward to hearing about coherence, the importance of activating discernment and how to intuitively find your path and purpose. Ross shares insight into his spiritual upbringing, the pain of suddenly losing both parents and his healing journey through grief. He describes the human condition beautifully, and this episode is full of his unique sayings and ideas surrounding identity, self-criticism, spiritual connection, loneliness, creativity and healing. We also talk about EMF's, Marcel Vogel and Vogel-cut crystals, the many inventions of Ross's father and the three "brains" in the human body.

104. Herbal Wisdom, Folklore and the Medicinal Magic of Plants and Our Planet with Judith Berger, Herbalist & Author of "Herbal Rituals"
Have you ever used lavender essence to relax before bedtime, ginseng or ginger in your tea or perhaps elderberry syrup to boost your natural immunity?
If you answered yes to any of those, guess what? You have been practicing herbal medicine, just the way nature intended it! More than ever before in our modern world, people are searching for natural ways to support the health of their minds and bodies. This episode offers timely wisdom and insight from one of the most influential urban herbalists and authors on plant medicines of our time: Judith Berger, writer of the ever-relevant Herbal Rituals. In my opinion, it’s much more than a book, and definitely more than a common reference for naturally treating health conditions: it is a lyrical homage to the ancient practices of herbal medicine.
Judith Berger is an herbalist, a prolific author, a poet and Physician Assistant who was born and raised in Brooklyn, NY. As you’ll hear in this episode, her earliest contact with nature was through the prism of fairy tales, the wilds of her father’s backyard garden and the dark corridors of the local plant nursery where she first cherished the scent of soil. She spent ten years in New York City studying and practicing as an urban herbalist before pursuing a degree as a Physician Assistant to integrate natural medicine with the modern medical model.
This episode will take you on an adventure into the world of plants and medicine! We talk about the soul of nature and the subtle, complex medicine of plants and mushrooms. Judith shares her thoughts on the digital overwhelm of our time, and offers insight on how herbal treatments can soothe our nerves to balance the stress of everyday life. We discuss the many changes the field of herbalism underwent since the writing of Herbal Rituals, and Judith shares her experiences of herbal effectiveness and contrasting medical philosophies realized through her training as Physician Assistant. We also cover the history and folklore of certain medicinal plants, the contributions of St. Hildegarde of Bingen, common herbal misconceptions and myths, and valuable resources for purchasing your own herbs or seeds. You can find Judith's wonderful offerings, writing and more at judithbergerherbalist.com.

103. Living AS IF: The Power of Choice, Radical Ownership and Being Your Own Biggest Cheerleader With Ryan Sprague (Part II)
When Ryan and I press that “record” button and get to talking, you can rest assured that the conversation will be rich with personal insights, beautiful realizations of collective and individual development and a deep well of inspiration for manifesting the life of your dreams. Looking back on the popularity and richness of our last conversation, Episode 94: Using Plant Medicine And Cannabis For Increased Consciousness, Connection And Lifestyle Balance With Ryan Sprague Part I, there was absolutely no WAY I wasn’t going to invite Ryan back to Awakening Aphrodite. Besides, we had so much more to talk about!
Ryan’s mission in life is helping his fellow brothers and sisters become empowered in their experience of being alive through men’s coaching, plant medicine integration coaching and retreat experiences. Ryan is the founder and co-owner of Highly Optimized, which includes a podcast that he hosts in addition to his other show, This One Time On Psychedelics. I highly encourage you to check out Ryan’s programs and podcasts! He is truly a wealth of wisdom and compassion.
We begin this episode with a discussion on learning styles, which quickly evolves into an exploration of human design, numerology and the tarot archetypes. We hear Ryan’s take on the dysfunctional balance of feminine and masculine energies at work in society and his thoughts on how their dynamic affects our collective imagination and the dogmatic science of today. I ask Ryan about the yin (archetypal feminine) nature of cannabis and he delves into the idea of taking radical ownership given the choice of living the dream or the victim mentality. He shares his key process for personal development, which he calls “living as if” to guide life and identity transitions for himself and his clients. We also cover the topics of burnout, self-worth, people pleasing, the “coach” paradigm within us all and why Ryan believes that being your biggest cheerleader is our life’s main requirement.
Your downloads, views, shares and reviews of Awakening Aphrodite mean the world to me– thank you so much for joining me on this journey of exploring great minds, ideas and the feminine archetype within us all. See you next time!

102. You are an Ancestor of the Future! Celtic Wisdom, Nature Reciprocity and Connecting to the Land & Death, our Friend & Guide with Moya McGinley
For nature lovers, land stewards and spiritual folks alike… This episode is all about developing a reciprocal relationship with nature, connecting with ancestral wisdom of the past and comprehending death: the guide, friend and ticket to a life of joy and self-development.
My guest Moya McGinley is a native Irish palliative care nurse, shaman and steward of Cosán Ciúin, her sacred land and farm retreat in Ireland. She strives to live simply and gently in true communion with the land, and feels that when we live in this harmonious way we are reminded that every moment of life is precious and sacred.
Moya is a Reiki Master with degrees and certifications in social science, aromatherapy, holistic massage and life coaching. She completed a year-long shamanic apprenticeship with a Native Mexican Medicine Woman in addition to other advanced shamanic study. Her comfort and connection with the spiritual world resonates through the topics we cover in this episode and illuminates the mystical history of Ireland, which she regards as a sacred threshold between the physical and spirit worlds.
In this beautiful episode we learn about Moya’s reciprocal relationship with nature and how her land revealed its ancestral secrets to her, including the previously unknown location of a sacred Celtic fire pit that was later confirmed by an archeologist’s findings. We talk about our new human role as guardians of the earth and how we must step up as ancestors of the future. Moya’s past in palliative care and her own personal near-death experience grants her exquisite insight and trust in Death, that widely feared and inevitable force we will all meet one day. We discuss attachment, suffering and acceptance, and how to access the state of unconditional love and faith we’re all striving for (whether we know it or not!). You can learn more about Moya's amazing story and offerings at tranquilpaths.com.
I hope this episode inspires you to take loving care of the earth and find what moves you! Please subscribe, share and leave a review to let me know what this episode brought up for you!

101. Channeling the Warrior AND the Goddess: Embodying the Sacred Feminine for Women with a Strong Masculine Energy with National Cross-Fit Champion and Yoni Holistic Therapist Emily Abbott
Are you ready to embody the sacred, self-sufficient and pleasure-filled warrior goddess that is your divine Feminine nature? This episode is all about developing a conscious relationship with your emotional body, grounding in your innate feminine power and reconnecting with the alchemical wisdom of your yoni and womb-space.
I was recently introduced to my guest in this episode, the beautiful Emily Abbott, and I have since had the honor of working with her privately to experience the magic of her work firsthand. Emily is a former two-time collegiate basketball national champion and elite CrossFit athlete. She now passionately guides women back to the wisdom of their divine Feminine as a holistic pelvic therapist and student in the process of earning her doctorate in acupuncture. Her mission is to build the bridges between the divine masculine and the divine feminine energies on the journey of self-actualization; a vital process to upgrade the way we live, love and lead in the world.
In this episode, you’ll hear Emily’s personal story of learning to embody her divine feminine through a dark night of the soul that involved a challenging career transition, a trauma-bonded relationship and an abortion that emotionally disconnected her from her womb and feeling-body. In witnessing and fulfilling her own need for presence and healing, Emily realized her life’s calling to explore pleasure and develop a loving relationship with her yoni and sacred feminine self. She regards the pelvic bowl as an alchemical portal to full feminine embodiment and talks about how developing a relationship with your yoni can support the manifestation of your wildest dreams in this life. Magical things happen when you step into your divine Feminine, and Emily is a true living example of that!
You can find Emily Abbot at her website or follow her on Instagram at @emily.ann.abbott. Visit the link in her bio to learn more about her one-on-one holistic pelvic healing sessions and amazing upcoming events!
If you enjoy learning about sacred sexuality and divine femininity, Awakening Aphrodite is the right show for you! Please check out Episode 42, Episode 50 and Episode 67 for similar content. I know you’re just going to LOVE this honest, candid and beautiful discussion with Emily Abbott– and if you do, please leave a review to support my show!

The mission of Awakening Aphrodite is to inspire YOU to live a fit and healthy life in mind, body and spirit as well as harmonize your masculine and feminine energies, tap into your intuition, your true source of power and awaken your authentic self.

For over thirty years, Paul’s unique, integrated approach to treatment and education has changed the lives of many of his clients, his students and their clients.

We remained friends and professional colleagues and about three years ago I also hired him as my personal coach and mentor. As my good friend, soul-family and one of the most influential healing forces in my life, Paul has successfully supported me through some of my biggest challenges and integrate ALL of who I am.

99. Overcoming Destination Addiction, Cultivating Patience, Allowing Grace and Enjoying the Journey With Dr. Robert Holden's Success Intelligence
“I’ll get started on that project soon, but not NOW!”
“Things will be better when I’ve reached that health goal, but not NOW!”
“My dream life will begin when I find my dream partner/house/career, but not NOW!”
Destination addiction is something we’ve all experienced at one point or another. It’s a concept sold to us daily by our own society: you need “that THING” to feel fulfilled, accomplished and happy. That relationship! That house! That outfit! That money in your bank account! That training program! That body weight! That career! That vacation! ...and so we urgently rush through each moment, holding chronic tension in our bodies as we work or distract our lives away in dogged pursuit of an imagined future event, identity or accomplishment.
Listen: the grass is green where you are NOW. The present moment is widely overlooked in our daily lives– despite the fact that each moment is your life. Does each day consist of rushing from place to place, inhaling your food as quickly as possible and squishing your entire life into a tiny schedule to save time? You’re probably a victim of destination addiction!
The term “destination addiction” was coined by motivational speaker and bestselling author Dr. Robert Holden in his fantastic book titled “Success Intelligence.” In this solo episode, you’ll hear about some of the key ideas in this book and my takeaways and reflections on the idea of destination addiction: What are the symptoms of destination addiction? How is this idea embedded in the English language? Is it possible to enjoy a transformational journey or process, despite the pain of growth and change? How can I cultivate inner stillness with my busy schedule?
How you do anything is how you do everything, and life is not about what you achieve, but who you BECOME in the process. We are in Life School! Enjoy each precious moment, my friend.

98. Truth on Organic and Natural Foods: A Regenerative, Biodynamic Solution to our Industrialized Food Coma with Be Here Farm Founder Jared Pickard
Do you eat healthy? Do you take the time and expense to prepare your meals and buy organic and "natural" foods? Well how do you KNOW you're actually getting what you think you're getting and are consuming food the way nature intended?
If eating natural and being healthy is important to you, you don't want to miss this one!
In this episode we talk about the current reality of the way we humans produce, consume and interact with our food and nature AND I share my favorite all natural *skin serum that I use every day!!
My guest, Jared Pickard, is a founder of the Be Here Farm + Nature, a family owned mountaintop homestead set on 300 acres in Saint Helena, CA where he and his wife Velisa have restored a formerly logged and ecologically desolate landscape into a vibrant, healthy ecosystem featuring a wildly diverse farm that is home to over 350 varieties of fruits, vegetables, herbs and flowers. Inspired by the abundance of the farm and land, the couple has developed a very unique collection of biodynamic self care offerings. Originally, all of this was done in preparation for the opening of a world class hospitality experience, designed to bring overnight guests onto the land for leisure and transformation…BUT all of this changed in September of 2020 when the Napa/Sonoma region was hit with devastating wildfires, including the Be Here Farm property.
From Wall Street to regenerative farming and from an advanced dream-plan to something abruptly new, Jared Pickard has walked through life’s trials of fire and comes to this show with an amazing perspective on the human journey. He shares groundbreaking information on what the “organic” label actually (doesn’t) mean, and provides easy, practical tips for really understanding the quality of food you put into your body. We also talk about my FAVORITE skincare product, Be Here Farm’s *Summer Solstice Serum. Jared has created the cleanest, most potent self care offerings imaginable– and in this episode you’ll learn about the wildcrafted ingredients, solar processing and careful packaging that make his creations so magical. And GUESS WHAT? As an Awakening Aphrodite listener, you receive a special discount and open invitation to contact Jared about the Be Here Farm’s offerings:

97. The Joys of Self-Expression, Inner Child Healing and Living Your Truth with Allison Pelot, Author of "Finally Thriving: Your Guide to Empowered Wellness"
Having my friend Allison Pelot back on Awakening Aphrodite is simply a dream come true. This time, Allison comes to us as the author of her first book, Finally Thriving: Your Guide to Empowered Wellness, a gift she manifested for the world to share her voice, teachings and vast wisdom as a healer, coach and energy worker. One of the many reasons I respect Allison so much is because she practices what she preaches: everything she shares stems from her own authentic experience. She has the most beautiful energy that invokes a calm, grounded feeling in me– something I’m curious to know if you'll feel through this episode too!
Allison was initially featured on Awakening Aphrodite’s popular Episode 62, which I think you’ll love if you enjoy this conversation. I also made an appearance on her wonderful podcast, Integrate Yourself, in which I share my own healing journey and passion for tapping into the soul’s desires and harmonizing the divine masculine and feminine dynamics within us all. We are like-minded sisters in many ways, and I’m so grateful for the opportunity to have her back here for another holistic conversation.
Allison’s new book is a main topic of this episode: her creative process, how writing allowed her to resolve and release deeper traumas, and how removing the stigmas and expectations of authoring a book alchemized the famously challenging process into a pure, joyful experience. Imagine if everyone’s work came from a place of joy rather than obligation! What a refreshing, transformative perspective.
We also discuss:
The process of healing the inner child
Vocal tuning and the incredible powers of voice
Holotropic breathwork and Allison’s out-of-body-experience
Sound healing
Mental fitness
The holistic idea that spiritual understanding and development can only truly occur when our body is nourished, strong and healthy
You will be happy to know that Finally Thriving is now widely available for purchase– AND it comes with a complementary online program that supports your individualized, practical application of Allison’s key concepts and teachings. Please enjoy this dynamic conversation and leave a review to let me know what you took away from this episode!

I initially encountered Amelia on GaiaTV and have since studied her work, read her international bestseller, "Straight Out Of The Horse's Mouth: How To Talk To Animals And Get Answers," and participated in her online program, The Language Of Miracles Institute. Amelia has been featured in hundreds of newspapers and magazines (including the New York Times, The Chicago Tribune and ABC News amongst other worldwide news stations!) and has appeared on programs such as The View, The Other Half, The Ellen Degeneres Show, Extra, The BBC News and numerous broadcasts in the US, Europe, and Australia. A BBC documentary was created around her work with the elephants in the Kruger National Park and a BBC children’s programming tour was created for her youngest most open-minded fans. Amelia’s true passion is leading her annual Sacred Harmony Safaris in Africa, and assisting organizations who rescue tigers, elephants, cheetah, penguins, Great White sharks, lions, and rhinos and trouble-shooting problems worldwide for tigers, primates, Asian elephants and countless breeds of exotic as well as domestic animals. She worked with the household cavalry of Queen Elizabeth II to “whisper” with the hunting horses of Prince Charles and played a key role in the success of hooved Olympic Gold and Silver medalists. She is the founder of Amelia’s Arcangel Society, a nonprofit organization that supports the education of children in rural Africa with the aims of reducing the poaching and endangerment of rapidly disappearing wildlife. In this episode, you can look forward to hearing Amelia’s thoughts on the following topics:
Healing the human-animal relationship
The true source of our joy
The dangers of overriding our instincts
Christ(ess) consciousness
Sisterhood
The cyclical nature of the feminine
Using the physical body to access the divine
Her encounter with a black mamba (a THRILLING story)
How to nourish yourself and understand animal messages
I hope this episode sparks your inspiration to connect with all the wise creatures that share this precious planet with us. To support Amelia's mission, learn more or become involved in animal communication, please visit www.ameliakinkade.com.
