The title says enough- watch what happens when you try this.

What really is this whole "purpose" thing?! Walking you through a 3-phase journey from pain, to plan, to purpose to demonstrate how you are uniquely designed to be of service. We dive into acknowledging our past, creating actionable steps for healing and new decisions, and creating acceptance and embodiment for our ourselves and our stories.

A guided meditation to heal the inner child.

All the times it hasn't worked out, what I don't show or talk about often. 

Adil, my incredible editor's Instagram: @adiddlydil

How often do we project, when it comes to our priorities, personal growth, intentions, even as far as trying to understand or empathize with those who did us wrong? Some candid thoughts on the nuances and complexities of projection and perception, how it surfaces in times of betrayal, pain, evolution, misunderstanding, and more. 

What do you do when your worst case scenario ACTUALLY happens? How do you act? What decisions do you make? How do you pick yourself back up?

Wreckless impulsivity versus intentional impulsivity. Let's talk about it. 

Advice can be plain noise. Let's take a step back and ask ourselves our intentions behind seeking advice- What are we looking to hear? Why do we consistently ask/avoid that one friend? Noticing any patterns?

Law of Attraction who?! That's right, from life purpose to no purpose, manifesting methods to simply living, and taking the focus and energy inwards. You hold the power, watch how much changes once you start acting like it.

Some of my favorite moments from this past year summed up into 2 min

Rajni and I chat about our experiences on the spiritual journey through the lens of both science and ancient wisdom. We share our stories and perspectives around the concept of evil eye, or nazar. We cover topics such as cerebral regions in relation to our external reality, evaluating our belief systems in relation to what we’re aiming to attract, the relationship between the conscious and subconscious mind, and how to truly detach from our manifestation and holistically embody what we intend to attract.
