Imagine going from broke, homeless and dyslexic to becoming a multimillionaire, bestselling author, leading authority and world-renowned expert.

That’s exactly what Dr John Demartini, today’s podcast guest, did — lifting himself out of despair to become one of the world's leading authorities on human behavior and personal development.

I have a personal connection to John and his work. A few years back I was really struggling with a particular relationship in my life. I was so angry and couldn't see how I was ever going to be able to move through it. I’d interviewed John for my blog, and he invited me to come to his Breakthrough Experience. I walked in on the Saturday morning, angry and upset towards this person in my life. By Sunday evening, I walked out feeling nothing but love and gratitude toward that same person — after years of feeling anger and resentment.

The speed with which he can help people transform is mindblowing, and I’m so excited you get to experience it for yourself through our conversation today.

This is Episode 09 with Eyal Matsliah On Unleashing Your Orgasm For Pleasure, Healing And Power.

It’s not often you meet a man who is a women's sexuality coach. But after witnessing a rape scene at a young age, Eyal vowed to never treat women as anything less than the divine goddesses they truly are.

Bhava’s story is incredible. He went from being a front-line journalist and war correspondent for NBC (winning the Alfred I. duPont award for his work, which is like winning the Pulitzer Prize)… to hitting rock bottom, with overwhelming health issues… through to becoming a head-standing yogi with a brand new outlook on life. This is a man who has truly been through it all and come out the other end to serve. 

I was introduced to Bhava by my husband and have been forever changed! He has impacted both our lives in a profound way (and in fact, the work that he did with Nick before we got together really cracked Nick’s heart open nice and wide, ready for me. 

Get ready for some serious inspiration and wisdom, because it comes hard and fast.

This is Episode 19 with Tera Warner On Body Image Detox.

My wish is for every woman on the planet to know how truly beautiful and amazing they are. To look in the mirror and think, ‘I am enough’! But so many women don’t feel this way, and for many years, I didn’t either. 

This is why I love Tera Warner’s work. She has dedicated her life to helping women become ‘Body Enlightened’. 

Tera believes an over inflated emphasis on how women look stole the thunder from how they live. Her mission is to help women see through the haze of media-driven obsessions about the body to realize that the word “beauty” has always whispered the one thing we most need to do… ‘be you.’

If you are struggling to accept the skin you’re in, if you need to do a body image detox, and if you’re sick of looking in the mirror and scoffing at yourself, this episode is for you! 

In this episode we chat about: 
• Why we are so obsessed with body image and what this is actually doing to us (04:58)
• What is body enlightenment? (07:40)
• How to take up space and be the most authentic version of yourself (12:27)
• What to do if you’ve tried every mantra and read every self help book, but are still obsessed with your body (there is a way out!) (14:36)
• Tera’s Springboard to Success method (and how to use it to design your dream life) (19:47)
• How to detox your body image (22:10)
• The real cost of your low self image and how it’s keeping you small (29:20)
• How we can inspire and teach our daughters to not be focused on self image and to serve (35:27)
• Plus so much more!

This is Episode 20 with Celebrity Chef Pete Evans on Living Fearlessly, Self-Love And Conscious Parenting.

Though he may be one of Australia’s most popular foodies, when I think of Pete Evans I don’t think ‘paleo chef’; I think fearless ambassador for his truth. He is on a mission and doesn’t let anyone stop him. 

He is a highly successful yet incredibly humble family man, whose driving passion is not to inspire people to eat their greens (as some may think), but to follow their curiosity and live their best life.

If you want to live more fearlessly, this episode is for you. 

In this episode we chat about: 
• Why we shouldn't get hung up on labels (06:08)
• The truth (with a capital T) that everything comes down to love or fear (he is so talking my language!) (07:58)
• The sacred ceremony he does with his wife for 30 minutes as the sun rises (13:16)
• Why curiosity is the key to life (16:40)
• How he moves through fear when it comes up (18:42)
• Why self-love is essential to happiness (20:25)
• The book that awakened him at 19 years old (you’ll want to add this one to your library, tout de suite!) (21:54)
• His self-love tips and tricks (24:28)
• How to parent consciously (27:55)
• The importance of surrounding yourself with epic humans (34:38)
• Why he is always hungry for growth (42:51)
• Plus so much more!
