  • Delusional spiritual slop

    This show is disturbing spirituality slop. The host has zero qualifications and just spouts nonsense in a soothing voice. Liked this for a while when I was deeply depressed and incredibly isolated. Now I just find it incredibly harmful; at this terrifying moment people deserve to be supported and empowered to real change and community—not be distracted by someone delusional and self important.

  • Thank you!!!

    You are inspiring. I found you on YouTube during the beginning of my self journey. I must say your delivery and your messages are in alignment with what my ears yearn to hear and what my heart beats to love. I pray you continue sharing your gifts. It’s motivating me to one day share mine a little more. You spoke about fear and I understand it completely.

    So to see you keep going knowing you feel the same fears helps me keep going in my lane even though I feel fear.

    Thank you again! New Soul Si... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

You're blessed to be a BLESSING — how to unlock ABUNDANCE for collective impact
Q: You mentioned the word moneyblocks, what do you see as the top money block holding people back, especially women?
The most common block is believing that money is for personal gain rather than for collective impact, which keeps people from asking for more or leveraging resources to empower others. When people connect money to a larger purpose—freedom, impact, and community transformation—they become more willing to pursue financial opportunities and to place capital where it can uplift others.
Never SURRENDER — how to stay HUMAN in the age of AI | Dr Flynn Coleman
Q: How do you view AI in relation to human rights and justice?
AI is a mirror and a tool; it reveals our biases and power dynamics, but with thoughtful governance, diverse participation, and a commitment to care, it can support justice and human flourishing rather than deepen inequality.
Never SURRENDER — how to stay HUMAN in the age of AI | Dr Flynn Coleman
Q: What does the soul mean to you?
The soul is an evolving, ever-unfolding process that encompasses questions, humility, and a belief in the interconnectedness of all beings; it invites living with uncertainty and continually learning rather than seeking easy answers.

Q: What are some fears you have had to overcome or the greatest fear or limiting belief?
The guest discusses a core limiting belief of not feeling worthiness or not being chosen, tracing it back to childhood experiences of not belonging, hypervigilance, and complex family dynamics. Through therapy, community, and reframing, they come to believe they did not do anything wrong and that they deserve care and belonging.
