To mark the first official full-length episode of Stay Grounded Season 2, I’m bringing you my reflection for July - a super vulnerable month of closures, deep questions, and surrendering to forces beyond my control, which challenged my ego in every way.   Tune in now and hear Georgina and I explore: What shifts when you choose to feel the things you’re most afraid of? Taking the medicine of surrender. Making the decision to close my coffee club. The power of accessing future versions of myself in the quantum. Exploring the cycles of death and rebirth.The interaction of soul, ego, and universal timelines.  Daring to dream and asking the universe for what you want. The work of evolving as a soul.Working through my core wound with Liber8’s processes. And more…As I continue along my awakening path, I’m more and more clear that we evolve in a spiral.

After almost five years of podcasting and nearly 300 episodes recorded, I am excited to announce…Season 2 of Stay Grounded!It's been over 5 years since I launched Stay Grounded. The show started out as a tagline for my first company, JavaPresse, with the intention to inspire you to infuse more passion and fulfillment into your daily life.As beautiful of an intention that is, I have had a hard time sticking to it. As I evolved over the years, so did the show. The questions I asked shifted as I navigated incredible highs and debilitating lows. Through business failures and breakups. Through peak experiences and adventures. Through profound transformations and evolutions.Who I am is not the same young man that began down this path. As I was reflecting on this, I realized I haven’t updated the branding, intro, outro, or feel of the podcast to align with who I am today and what I'm most passionate about stewarding into the world.Hence, the revampSeason 2 will have the same caliber of amazing guests, same depth, an

This is a re-release of an episode with one of my favorite human beings on the planet.

When confronted with adversity, it is natural to tense up and resist what is happening. But what if there’s a more intuitive approach to managing adverse life experiences that leaves you feeling emotionally resilient, connected to forces unseen, and held by the graceful hands of life? Bailee Buckedorff’s life turned upside down when she lost her husband to suicide and was left to tend to her 3 young children on her own. Shortly afterwards, she “fell” into an opportunity to learn from and be held by Guru Singh, a celebrated 3rd generation yogi and master spiritual teacher. Fast forward 4 years, Bailee is now the founder of 13 Moons - an online community that showcases a library of Guru Signh’s teachings and provides tools like guided meditations and kundalini to help you stay grounded through a daily spiritual practice. This podcast is the story of a woman who has allowed herself to be led by spirit through the darkest of times.

I’ve known for a while that April would be a big month. Earlier in the year, I booked an 8-day ayahuasca retreat with 21 other men. This is the most nights I’ve sat in a ceremony, and the first with a group of men. I spent the first three weeks of April prepping for the event. It was important to me to get clarity on the intentions I wanted to take into ceremony. The retreat was an invitation to explore what’s been hiding in my shadow - the source of my greatest fears and my greatest potential. It’s been a long road to get to this point in my life, but something inside me knew it was time to ask myself the bold questions that I was afraid to know the answers to.What resulted was the most transformative journey I’ve ever experienced. I found the root of my inner critic, and replaced the critical voice in my head with that of a compassionate guide. My relationship with myself has shifted entirely. More than that, I now understand what it means to love myself fully - and it’s changing how I show up in

Over the last several years, I’ve spent a lot of time learning how to feel several uncomfortable emotions like sadness, grief, and shame. But anger is another story. I’ve always had a hard time connecting to my anger, and I know I’m not alone. Most of us are not taught how to deal with anger in the moments we feel it because of all the conditioning and “rules” we have around expressing anger. As a result, it just gets stored in the body and fuels reactive behaviors and emotional triggers. These emotional triggers don’t fully stop occurring until you release what’s been buried in the unconscious mind for years, some decades.March was a profound month of learning to release repressed anger that never fully got felt growing up. I had a few profound healing experiences and enlightening conversations led to some significant breakthroughs in my emotional well-being. Thank you all for being. I’m beyond grateful that I get to share this journey with you all. Love you guys! If you have a moment, please
