I've known and loved Nadia for many years. She inspires me with her deep commitment of helping women reclaim their bodies. She's fiercly feminine and deeply intelligent! Her and I can jam for HOURS about female sexuality, sensuality, being a woman in the world, reclaming our bodies as women, And that's exactly what we did on this episode! We talk about:

I've worked with the feeling of Jealousy a lot. It comes up in many ways. But mostly, it's seeing specific things that women in my life have that I don't. Usually pertaining to relationship and career success. It's not fun to feel, but, it's also VERY human and I'm sure you've experienced it as well. But when Jealousy is not examined, I believe it can lead to friendships and relationships breaking down. In this episode, one of my besties and wonderful Buddhist Teacher Sydney Faith Rose and I break down Jealousy. I share a story about a recent experience of jealousy, and what I learned from it. We talk about:
To find Sydney Email her at SyndeyFaithRose@gmail.com and you can take her classes at Dharma Punx NYC, which I highly recommend! What ways have YOU experienced Jealousy? And how did you deal with it? Let us know it comments below.  1:31:42 | View on iTunes
Michael and I were best friends in high school (along with a group of theater friends). He’s still one of my closest soul mates. We went through A LOT together. Curating our identity, discovering the world, and having countless conversations about life. Naturally, after high school, we drifted apart. But in the past few years- have re-discovered our friendship. This episode is full of that love we've always had for each other and such rich conversation! I admire Michael, and was honored to have his fiery, creative, one of a kind-fun self on the show! If you don’t know Michael he recently recently topped the Spotify Viral charts with his single “Manufactured Love”. He’s a pop soul singer with a queer political edge. He’s a professional recording artist for BMG S curve records and debuted the album 'When I get it right' this past summer. We talk about:
If you want more Michael and to listen to his amazing music he's got a show coming up on January 24th at BOWERY BALLROOM get tickets HERE. I'll be there! What was your favorite part of the episode? Any insights? Let me know in comments below!  35:41 | View on iTunes
2017 is here. Happy New Year, friends! I'm starting something super fun. Shorter (specific topic) episodes. Insight Mondays. An insight means seeing into the true nature of reality. (woah...deep). To me, it just means having a true sense of "knowing" something. Knowing it deeply in my bones. Sometimes it'll be just me, sometimes I'll have a guest join me, to dissect topics from a buddhist/dharmic perspective. Because really, Buddhism (which I view as an embodied philosophy as oppose to a religion) has been such spiritual medicine for me the past 8 years. I've chosen lots of great topics- but curious, do you have any you'd like me to discuss? Today's episode is all about actually COMMITTING TO YOUR NEW YEARS INTENTIONS (ahem- those "fun" resolutions) you set for yourself. Aka, building healthy habits. And making this year YOUR best year yet. I'm joined by Sydney Faith Rose. Sydney is a buddhist teacher and teaches regularly at Dharma Punx NYC, a holistic health coach, yoga teacher, and lifelong meditator. She's brilliant and one of my closest friends. We're also housemates (with two other lovely humans) and have these conversations all the time, so it felt very natural to have her on the show! If you'd like to reach her you can at sydneyfaithrose@gmail.com We talk about:
Enjoy! What are some of your intentions for 2017? I'd love to hear them below. |
