Audio The Exchange of the Cross - Conversation
Heather and I sit down to discuss one of the most important practices of a true spiritual journey and how we can each live into it every day. This is simple but powerful!
Audio The Exchange of the Cross

Audio Expansive vs. Restrictive - No. 52
Most of the language that we use and the way that we use it in modern culture is restrictive. We have a very hard time thinking and communicating in expansive ways.
Audio Egoic Narratives - No. 51
We ascribe meaning to everything, and it is all driven by our past experiences. What has happened in the past helps us interpret the present and try to predict the future. The problem is that most of the meaning we ascribe to things isn’t real or accurate.

The pattern of initiation is hidden in all the stories that move our hearts. It resonates deeply inside us and is essential to understanding our own transformation journey.
