  • Tracee Stanley interview …

    I love your podcast, have read several of your books and feel compelled to write you with some advice. You gave Tracee Stanley a wonderful introduction including how her book had touched/influenced you. When you have a guest like that, people come to hear the guest’s thoughts, not yours. For as long as I could stand it, you dominated the conversation with long-winded questions. I doubt in the context of this interview, anyone would have been interested in your awakening at age 29. My advice: hav... more

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Listen Again: 12 Signs You Might Be Part of the Awakening
Q: I have a hard time feeling the hope and possibility of change that may be happening. My personal challenges are overshadowing it. How do I do that?
The guidance is to go directly into whatever is challenging you and speak about it with people you love, write about it online, and be open about it. The Pool thrives on communication and shared vulnerability rather than retreat; you're not abandoning yourself by confronting difficulty, you're inviting the collective support to help you dissolve the old pyramid within and around you.
Peace First
Q: Can you explain a bit more about time being an illusion and how we can use that understanding along with staying grounded in peace to manifest what we yearn for?
The idea is that while physics shows time can dilate or contract (e.g., at high speeds), our practical takeaway is to treat peace as the platform from which manifestation arises; by dropping into peace, we can receive guidance or 'pebble drops' from our future selves, which helps align actions with desired outcomes without clinging to a particular timeline.
When You Don’t Know What to Do
Q: How do we quell our anxiety while trying to get used to new ways of living?
Find presence by staying in the moment and avoiding ruminating on past or future outcomes; observe calmly, then take small, tested steps and adjust based on feedback rather than forcing a quick fix.
What Do I Do Now
Q: What specific steps would you recommend to someone in the between with homes, and how long does it typically take to adjust after a move?
Acknowledge the dissolution and recreation process, give yourself permission to feel chaotic, let go of the need for everything to be in its place, and practice the exact breathing and present-moment exercises to ease the transition over time.
What Do I Do Now
Q: Question, if an hour to just breathe sounds too overwhelming, should I or could I just start with five minutes and see how I do?
Yes. Start with five to six minutes of noticing the breath, possibly while a comforting activity (like a Disney movie for kids) is happening in the background, and build from there without forcing a full Zen meditation.
