    #14 - Michael Sol: Finding Our Way Out of the Wasteland
    Nov 25 2024
    Lonely, hopeless, lack of direction, lack of real connections, and stuck in distraction. This is the story of not only Michael & I's past but of so many young people today. This story of growing up without mentors or a solid roadmap is one that many people have known and is a mark of our current time. We are a generation of wanderers, stumbling through the dark as we try to find the doorway through. Growing up we all needed guidance and real connection to elders, but rarely rece...

  • #13 - DH & BC: The Beautiful Tension of Being Human

    #13 - DH & BC: The Beautiful Tension of Being Human
    Nov 17 2024

    If your looking for a casual bro out while getting lost in the saucey nature of what it means to be a human being in our current time on earth, you have arrived at your destination! Today's episode explored a vast range of topics, all centering around the concept of inherent tension within this reality, and how we can make space for the tension so that it becomes life-giving.

    We are living in a crazy time that is bursting at the seams with nuance and complexity. Come join us by the fire as we explore some of the jagged edges and through laughter and story telling hopefully smooth some of them out.

    We are joined today by my dear brother DH, who although most of you may not know yet, is someone who has tapped into their unique genius in a profound way and holds many gems of insight, while also remembering the necessity of laughter and play. It's always a joy to get lost in conversation with DH, and today's episode certainly delivered in that.

    #12 - Blake Chalfant: The Integration Episode
    Oct 29 2024
    In a society that is polluted with rigid, black & white patterns of thought and behavior, we are in utter need of transcending the poles and building bridges. In today's episode, I highlight the pattern that is at play and provide insight into how we might be able to begin building the bridges of integration and bringing together the isolated parts within ourselves and within our society.To me, this is the necessary step we are being asked to take as a collective and it begins with people...

  • #11 - Blake Chalfant: The Great Human Dilemma of Time

    #11 - Blake Chalfant: The Great Human Dilemma of Time
    Oct 1 2024

    Today I will be sharing an audio version of my most recent article, which I wrote on the topic of time. I believe our relationship with time and the finite to be one of the most important topics, but it has unfortunately been swept under the rug.

    We are all constrained by our human finitude and have attempted to resist the limits of our nature. Because of this, many people experience an ever-pervasive angst about existence and a constant stress over spending their time wisely.

    This article is very dear to me and something I spent a lot of time on. It feels like a topic that should be at the top of the 'how-to' manual for being human."

    I hope you enjoy it!

    #10 - Dr. Kenneth Pelletier: Change Your Genes, Change Your Life
    Sep 10 2024
    Contrary to the mainstream view of genetic determinism, the new science of epigenetics tells us that we have control over 95% of our genes and can turn them on or off. This is a huge shift in the narrative and allows us, as individuals, to take back the reins of our health. Say goodbye to the victim mentality of needing drugs and doctors, and say hello to a new paradigm built on empowering individuals to create change through their actions.Discover in this episode what epigenetics is and how ...

    #9 - Blake Chalfant: You are here to Realign with Yourself
    Sep 4 2024
    You have arrived, and this is exactly where you are supposed to be. You are being asked to take a moment to realign with yourself and the path you are on. How are you? What are you feeling? Take a breath and breathe into all the different parts of your current experience.So much of the time, we are distracted on a constant hamster wheel of life without actually pausing to assess where we are and whether we are connected to our center. In the midst of this chaos, many of us don’t realize how f...

    #8 - Blake Chalfant: From Probability to Possibility, Unlock Your Full Expression
    Aug 28 2024

    Chances are you are living your life through the lens of probability, and it is keeping you stuck. Every decision, thought, and behavior is filtered through your past's data set, which completely diminishes any chance of possibility or change.

    Although it is unknown and requires trust, as we move from probability back towards possibility we open up an entire horizon of life that is not available when being limited by probability. So instead of conforming to the line graph based on our past, let us embrace a future that is greater than our past, and is built on the possibility of what might be.

  • #7 - Blake Chalfant: The Art of Listening, Humanities Role on Earth

    #7 - Blake Chalfant: The Art of Listening, Humanities Role on Earth
    Aug 19 2024

    What if the next steps, the answers you seek, and the path ahead was trying to find you? In a culture so deeply entrenched in “doing”, and grinding things out, we have forgotten about the art of listening.

    What is the purpose of our species? Why are we so different than everyone else?

    I believe humans are a custodial species, here to create, care for, and breathe life into the natural organization of life that exists. Within our place as humans, it is absolutely essential that we are listening to life in order to inform how we show up.
