We all love to discuss Self-Mastery as if it’s something we can add to our list of accomplishments. Today’s guest reminds us that self-mastery is an art--and the true power is through keeping a student mentality throughout life.  Jessica Benstock is a Soul Advisor to female leaders, and an expert in the Art and Science of Transformation. After spending 10 years in the depths of training under various spiritual teachers and through different modalities, Jess has recently come out into the world as a guide in teaching the way of the Feminine.  Her experience is in the self-mastery space--practicing, learning and facilitating transformational techniques such as somatic healing, human emotional intelligence, subconscious mind, mental health, subtle energies, transformational healings, consciousness, therapy, relationship healing, trauma healing, somatic practices, and meditation. In today’s episode, we cover the power of staying a student, emotional intelligence, authenticity, vulnerability, and being in touch wi

Our breath is the one tool we always have available to us to connect inward, unhook from the mind, and transform. Breathwork can break down barriers, illusions of separation, judgments, and help us connect to our own being as the pure souls that we are.

Our guest today is Sam Skelly--a wonderful friend of mine and founder of both Hungry for Happiness and Pause Breathwork. Her work helps people learn how to do the most basic human things: eat, breathe, and feel. In today’s' episode, we discuss what breathwork is, how we can use it in our lives, the benefits and common misconceptions, the difference between personal development and embodiment, why it's important to be certified in order to teach or lead breathwork, and what getting certified for breathwork looks like.  To become a Breathwork Facilitator and Enhance your work with your clients, apply for The Pause Breath

Experiencing how you’re showing up in this pandemic is giving every single human the opportunity to do what’s called ego work. I’m going to first define this concept and introduce it to you, provide examples, and move into how we can heal and use it to our advantage.  However you’re showing up is completely okay, but what happens psychologically is this: The pandemic ensued, and every human on the planet began feeling the uncertainty that’s really always there. Uncertainty is essentially the fear of the unknown, fear of dying, fear of the dark, etc. The EGO is a function of the mind that identifies as “I.” I am this, I feel this, I think this, I believe this. It tells stories, runs narratives, and assigns meaning to you, the world, and other people based on its experiences so far. It helps us make sense of things. It also gives us a sense of identity. Having a sense of identity makes us feel like a human, with a purpose. That’s why it likes to keep us in the familiar, predictable, and safe patterns. It protec

Everyone is going through something. You never know how something you say or do affects someone. As humans, sometimes it’s easy to forget that we are never alone in our experience, even though we can often feel that way. Sharing our vulnerability and stories is a way that we can connect. Every single one of us has the power to share our story with the platforms we have available today. Today’s guest is an award-winning poet, songwriter, National Slam Poetry Champion, teacher of storytelling, and soulful leader known as In-Q.  In today’s episode, we discuss how poetry and artistry activates people into taking action and feeling like they are not alone, how vulnerability connects us as humans, consumerism and outside validation, sharing from a place of your own truth, and being present with gratitude.  https://in-q.com/inquirewithin/ or find In-q on Instagram @inqlife Moments: [6:36] Discussing storytelling and the power of sharing your story [8:38] In-q  discusses his story and shares a story that was most po

The more we consume other people's information and news and media, the more our nervous system and subconscious goes into overdrive. This causes us to go into fight, flight, or freeze mode, which is what a lot of us are experiencing right now.  We have a very timely and relevant episode today, my mentor Scott Oldford. He’s been preparing for something like a pandemic for 2 years. If you don’t know Scott, (he’s been on the podcast before) but he’s been running businesses since he was 14 and has built ten 7-figure businesses and helped over 100 entrepreneurs scale to 7-figures.

The western world has become so fixated on masculine energy as the only way, the right way. Men and women have fallen into this category and it’s made us very one dimensional. What can we do as modern-day women to not default to the masculine and live in our feminine energy as a Queen? Queens are insightful, intuitive and they know that there is a power that is in them not of them that they can absolutely harness.  Today’s guest is Gina DeVee- founder of Divine Living, a multi-million dollar lifestyle brand and women’s empowerment company.

Pain is your body’s way of trying to get your attention. It’s a signal or a calling that you’re not paying attention to something. You could be mechanically healthy but you’re still in pain because something is missing. But pain is not about fixing a problem, it’s about consistently paying attention and having awareness of how your body is working. Motions and emotions are connected.  Today’s guest is one of my good friends Vinny Crispino, founder of Pain Academy, which helps people rid pain from their bodies. I have personally used Vinny’s techniques and always come back to them.

Pt. 2 In Part 2 of our Ayahuasca experience, we dive into the juicy stuff: full breakdowns of each of our ceremonies. You’ll hear vivid descriptions of our journey while on the Grandmother of plant medicines: Ayahuasca. We also go into our biggest takeaways and plans for integration back into the real world. Disclaimer: This is recounting an experience, and we aren’t necessarily endorsing plant medicines for all by sharing. If you don’t feel called, ready, or interested—do NOT try it. If you do, do as much research as you can and find some place safe to go (like Soltara.) For more info on Soltara, visit: www.soltara.co

Today we are here to have a conversation about Ayahuasca. Substances are tools. Many people use them for escapism or to self-medicate. But psychedelics and substances like Ayahuasca have all of the properties that allow you to do deep work. For us, therapy is like taking the stairs, and adding psychedelics is like taking the elevator. As many of you have seen, John and I attended an Ayahuasca retreat at Soltara in Costa Rica back in December. In this two-part episode, we are going to go through our journeys and experiences with psychedelics both chemical and plant, why we decided to go on this retreat, why we chose Soltera, and towards the end, we are going to cover our individual and collective experiences and the journey itself.  Disclaimer:  There is a difference between casual and cavalier substance use. Substances can be used safely within guidelines. Cavalier means no regard for safety or consequences. Neither of us is cavalier with anything we do, but most especially with substances that can be dangero

Today’s episode is different than any other episode we’ve ever had. How many of us have read books or resources on the habits of successful people thinking that if we followed their steps, we would get the same results? We take on the habits of other people because we want to emulate their success, instead of carving our own path. In reality, many of our habits are no longer serving us and are keeping us on auto-pilot.   Today's guest is Natalie Macneil. Natalie is an Emmy award winning entrepreneur, best selling author, and creator of “She Takes on the World”, one of the top sites for female entrepreneurs. She’s also an expert on meditation, hypnosis, and has coached thousands of people. She’s a leader for moving into the new paradigm and new way of being.    Today we discuss Natalie’s new book, The Rituals, and cover rituals vs. habits, embodiment over mindset, and aliveness over automation, importance of breathwork, and how to create our own rituals alone and in a community.   Find The Rituals at: nataliem

The body is a self-healing, self tuning mechanism and organism, but most people don’t walk through the world and life with an aligned body. The body is designed to sustain itself long term, but our lives today are not designed the same. With technology and screen time, we’ve taken many natural components of our world out.  Today’s guest is Aaron Alexander, the host of the Aligned Podcast. Becoming his friend was one of the best things to happen to my health. In this episode, we discuss the wisdom of the body, how to use our natural world to put ourselves into a healing state, how we continually anchor and inhabit ourselves into different states of being, subtle components to enhance your life, and creating positive feedback loops. You can find Aaron’s book at: thealignedbook.com and check out his podcast and follow him on Instagram @alignpodcast

We are souls having a human experience. As spiritual beings, our primary goal is not to change life on this earth, rather to provide us an experience to transform ourselves and awaken. The soul's purpose is to be realized, recognized, and witnessed and to become more aware of the consciousness of the human in which it lives inside. This is the context of Spiritual Psychology,    If you’ve been following me, you know I’ve been in the University of Santa Monica Spiritual Psychology program, which I just finished back in November. In today’s episode, I’m going to break down the program, what it is, and my experiences and takeaways from it. I can’t wait to share this with you, and continue to share more of this type of content this year.    Links: https://www.universityofsantamonica.edu/why-usm/spiritual-psychology/   Loyalty to Your Soul book: https://www.amazon.com/Loyalty-Your-Soul-Spiritual-Psychology/dp/1401927289   Apply to the Flourish & Conquer Mastermind at: www.amandabucci.com/mastermind

We’re at the end of 2019.   About to enter 2020.   There is a new paradigm occurring, a new way of being emerging.   We have less and less tolerance for making decisions for other people…   Living in societal boxes…   Tolerating hate, bigotry, sexism, racism, oppression….   We are learning to balance out the patriarchal masculine way of doing with the matriarchal feminine way of being…   Recognizing a deeper truth and sense of reality thats far more than what we ever imagined…   So many are waking up and recognizing the truth of who they are….   Having dark night of the soul moments — seeing their dark subconscious that is filled with everything we ever disowned about ourselves that we hate…   Here’s 8 things I've learned to be true.
