In this episode, Marina Perry dives deep into what it truly means to reclaim your sovereignty, align with your life’s purpose, and expand your capacity as a human being. She shares candid insights on discipline, consistency, and the challenges of facing your inner world, from meditation to clearing mental blocks and navigating external noise. Marina explores the paradox of striving versus ease, the power of curiosity and compassion, and how to ask the right questions to create meaningful change. From the nuances of human design and epigenetic expression to the grief and transformation that come with parenting and life transitions, this conversation is a raw, heart-centered exploration of consciousness, courage, and living fully in alignment with your authentic self.

EP 43 - The Inner Journey: Sovereignty, Intuition, Somatics & Growth with Marina Perry

Live from the fall concert "Úr Jǫrðu" in Tøyenkirka, 2023.

Earth Lament

This audiobook features an exciting exclusive interview with Philippa Gregory and narrator Gemma Whelan, star of Game of Thrones 

 She ​survives four queens. Will she fall to a tyrant?

Jane Boleyn watches from the shadows of the Tudor court. Where nothing is more powerful than a secret – or more deadly.

As the Boleyns rise, Jane rises with them. But the king’s love is a fickle thing. And when the royal gaze turns elsewhere, Jane uses the only weapon she has: her voice.

To survive in this dazzling, dangerous world she has mastered many masks: loving wife, devoted sister, and obedient spy. Now she must step out of the shadows.

She might outlive her rivals. She might know the court’s darkest secrets. But power rests on the edge of a tyrant king’s sword. Where will it fall next?

Philippa Gregory brings the Boleyn traitor into the light in an explosive story of one woman’s survival in the treacherous heart of the Tudor court.

Boleyn Traitor, By Philippa Gregory, Read by Gemma Whelan

I’ve been reviewing the new Consumer Reports investigation on lead (heavy metal) levels in protein powders and shakes, and I wanted to walk through it with you. The report tested 23 popular products and found that many exceeded what CR considers safe daily limits for lead in just one serving. It’s important information — but it’s also something that needs context. 

You can read the full Consumer Reports article here: https://www.consumerreports.org/lead/protein-powders-and-shakes-contain-high-levels-of-lead-a4206364640/ 

In this video, I share my take on the findings: why it’s essential to read the full report, understand what those numbers actually mean, and evaluate your real intake rather than reacting to headlines alone. 

Not all powders are created equal, and your overall exposure matters. My approach is simple: stay informed, choose brands that take testing seriously, and avoid unnecessary risk. 

For now, my safe options are: 
• Thorne Whey Protein — high-quality sourcing and third-party tested. 
• David’s Protein Bars — clean ingredients and transparent labeling. 

I’ve linked both companies below if you want to take a closer look.

Staying safe doesn’t have to be overwhelming — it just takes understanding the data and making choices that support your long-term health. 
Let’s go through it together.

A life-long humanitarian, Matthias Schmale has borne witness to a number of seismic moments in world history. Currently United Nations Resident and Humanitarian Coordinator in Ukraine, he is overseeing efforts to help Ukrainians prepare for a fourth winter at war.
“The longer this lasts, the more the resilience will go down, the more the psychological damage will take hold [...] There are nights where I lie in bed thinking, why can't this nightmare for civilians end?”
Ukrainians have endured four years of hellish conflict that continues to devastate civilian lives and infrastructure, leaving 36 percent of the population in need of aid. In this episode, Matthias Schmale looks back on a long career of humanitarian service, reflects on the deep scars of war and explains why daily life in Kyiv can be both heaven and hell.

Я КОХАЮ ТЕБЕ, МОЯ ЛЮБОВ

Verse 1
Я не міг би жити без твоїх очей
Я не міг би жити без тебе, моя любов
Без тебе життя не має сенсу, справді жодного сенсу
Я — це ти, ти — це я, ми є одне ціле, неподільне
Наше кохання злите, вічне і справжнє
Кожен удар мого серця відлунює твоє ім'я
Ти є сама суть мого існування

Chorus
Я кохаю тебе, моя любов
Без тебе життя не має сенсу
Справді жодного сенсу
Я кохаю тебе, моя любов
Без тебе я не можу дихати
Ти моє все, мій цілий всесвіт

Verse 2
Без тебе я ніколи не зміг би дихати
Я ніколи більше не зміг би дихати, моє серце
Життя без тебе було б як сім'я без води і без сонця
Вранці, коли я прокидаюся, я думаю про тебе
Ти перша думка, що освітлює мій день
Ти мій промінь життя, ти моє сяюче сонце
Ти блискавка, що надає енергії кожній миті мого життя

Chorus
Я кохаю тебе, моя любов
Без тебе життя не має сенсу
Справді жодного сенсу
Я кохаю тебе, моя любов
Без тебе я не можу дихати
Ти моє все, мій цілий всесвіт

Bridge
Ти жінка, що дає мені сміливість зустріти мій день
Ти жінка, що підтримує мене у важкі часи
Що пестить мене, що обіймає мене з такою ніжністю
Ти жінка, яку я так обожнюю і бережу
Яку я покриваю пристрасними поцілунками і безмежним коханням
Без тебе, моя любов, я не міг би жити цим життям
Життя стало б нестерпним, неможливим для розуміння

Verse 3
Ти така блискуча, як зірка в ночі
Я обожнюю твій голос, що звучить як мелодія
Я думаю про твої глибокі очі, що змушують мене втрачати розум
Про твою чарівну посмішку, що освітлює мої дні
Коли ти далеко від мене, час зупиняється
Я сумую за тобою так сильно, що ти навіть не уявляєш
Кожна секунда без тебе — це вічність

Chorus
Я кохаю тебе, моя любов
Без тебе життя не має сенсу
Справді жодного сенсу
Я кохаю тебе, моя любов
Без тебе я не можу дихати
Ти моє все, мій цілий всесвіт

Outro
Моя любов, ти моя причина жити
Моє дихання, моя сила, моє божественне натхнення
У твоїх обіймах я знаходжу мир і втіху
Ти моя родинна душа, моя доля, мій скарб
Я кохаю тебе сьогодні, завтра і назавжди
Наше кохання вічне, чисте і щире
Я кохаю тебе, моя любов, на всю вічність

Я КОХАЮ ТЕБЕ, МОЯ ЛЮБОВ (feat. Allessandro-Andrea Mancuso) (UKRAINIAN Love)

ICH LIEBE DICH, MEINE LIEBE

Verse 1
Ich könnte nicht ohne deine Augen leben
Ich könnte nicht ohne dich leben, meine Liebe
Ohne dich hat das Leben keinen Sinn, wirklich keinen Sinn
Ich bin du, du bist ich, wir sind eins, unteilbar
Unsere Liebe ist verschmolzen, ewig und wahr
Jeder Schlag meines Herzens hallt deinen Namen wider
Du bist die Essenz meiner Existenz

Chorus
Ich liebe dich, meine Liebe
Ohne dich hat das Leben keinen Sinn
Wirklich keinen Sinn
Ich liebe dich, meine Liebe
Ohne dich kann ich nicht atmen
Du bist mein Alles, mein ganzes Universum

Verse 2
Ohne dich könnte ich niemals atmen
Ich könnte nie wieder atmen, mein Herz
Das Leben ohne dich wäre wie eine Familie ohne Wasser und ohne Sonne
Am Morgen, wenn ich aufwache, denke ich an dich
Du bist der erste Gedanke, der meinen Tag erhellt
Du bist mein Lebensfunke, du bist meine strahlende Sonne
Du bist der Blitz, der jeden Moment meines Lebens dynamisiert

Chorus
Ich liebe dich, meine Liebe
Ohne dich hat das Leben keinen Sinn
Wirklich keinen Sinn
Ich liebe dich, meine Liebe
Ohne dich kann ich nicht atmen
Du bist mein Alles, mein ganzes Universum

Bridge
Du bist die Frau, die mir den Mut gibt, meinen Tag zu bewältigen
Du bist die Frau, die mich in schwierigen Zeiten unterstützt
Die mich verwöhnt, die mich mit so viel Zärtlichkeit liebkost
Du bist die Frau, die ich so sehr verehre und schätze
Die ich mit leidenschaftlichen Küssen und unendlicher Liebe bedecke
Ohne dich, meine Liebe, könnte ich dieses Leben nicht leben
Das Leben würde unerträglich werden, unmöglich zu begreifen

Verse 3
Du bist so brillant, wie ein Stern in der Nacht
Ich liebe deine Stimme, die wie eine Melodie erklingt
Ich denke an deine tiefen Augen, die mich den Verstand verlieren lassen
An dein bezauberndes Lächeln, das meine Tage erhellt
Wenn du weit weg von mir bist, bleibt die Zeit stehen
Ich vermisse dich so sehr, dass du es dir nicht einmal vorstellen kannst
Jede Sekunde ohne dich ist eine Ewigkeit

Chorus
Ich liebe dich, meine Liebe
Ohne dich hat das Leben keinen Sinn
Wirklich keinen Sinn
Ich liebe dich, meine Liebe
Ohne dich kann ich nicht atmen
Du bist mein Alles, mein ganzes Universum

Outro
Meine Liebe, du bist mein Lebensgrund
Mein Atem, meine Kraft, meine göttliche Inspiration
In deinen Armen finde ich Frieden und Trost
Du bist meine Seelenverwandte, mein Schicksal, mein Schatz
Ich liebe dich heute, morgen und für immer
Unsere Liebe ist ewig, rein und aufrichtig
Ich liebe dich, meine Liebe, für alle Ewigkeit

ICH LIEBE DICH, MEINE LIEBE (feat. Allessandro-Andrea Mancuso) (GERMAN Love)

Bonjour, message pour toutes les agences de musique numérique. Vous êtes devenues trop nombreuses pour que je puisse répondre à chacune, donc j’envoie une réponse générale à tous ! Contrairement à ce que mon profil professionnel indique, je ne vis pas de la musique, qui est devenue un hobby fou pour moi, car je ne compose que depuis 2024. Mon rêve n'est pas d'avoir des streams, mais plutôt de trouver des groupes ou des chanteurs capables de défendre mes chansons sur scène. Merci pour votre message, et ainsi, chacun d'entre vous aura une réponse claire et simple ! Salutations ! (Je reçois tranquillement entre 9 000 et 15 000 streams par semaine, sans acheter de streams, juste des streams réels). Je n'ajouterai pas d'autres réponses et je tiens à remercier ceux qui ont pris le temps de laisser un message aimable de soutien pour mes compositions. Salutations à tous !
