The conclusion: A discourse on the Declaration of Independence and the human white men who wrote these words of freedom. On this episode of Belief Busters, Rev. Sheree was invited to Mind Your Own Becoming, MYOB, to discuss with Rev. Dr. Charles Geddes the dissonance of Thomas Jefferson's work and life.

Much Like Waldo, she was everywhere and hard to find. After a hiatus of grieving and renewal, Sheree updates us on where she's been and what's coming in the future.

On this episode of Belief Busters, we take on myth-busting God! Rev. Sheree challenges the idea that God is an old white man sitting on a throne in heaven. Sure, you may have been told that concept is God, but what if that is outdated idea created when we were trying to make sense of the world around us. Join us as we reclaim God in new and wonderful ways.

Will break your bones but words will never hurt you! Is that true? Is physical pain greater than emotional pain? On this episode of Belief Busters we question the validity of this adage. Rev. Sheree will continue to support you in challenging the myths that you grew up believing are real. And we give you tips to release the false ideas while creating the juicy life you deserve!

On Belief Busters we discuss ways to see people who believe in conspiracies in a new light. What if conspiracy theorists are simply trying to connect with God in an alternative way. What if because of their disillusionment with religious dogma, people are looking for things to battle in the hopes of winning God's favor? Is it possible for us to choose to not disagree with their beliefs, but to understand they are searching for spiritual connection? Could we renew their trust in humanity again, by simply listening and finding common ground?  

Our guest is Anthony Russo. He is a journalist and has found a calling in his most recent work, a book on cults and conspiracy theorists,  Dragged into the Light. This is a discussion that many spiritual communities haven't been willing to engage on. Join us on this conversation. Let us know what you think.

This is the conclusion of our interview, in which we discuss how pain can help us understand if there is dis-ease in our body, mind, or emotions. On Belief Busters Podcast we will discuss that pain is a natural part of life, everyone feels it. So often, we try to avoid pain, but what if pain is really a gift? Our guest Kate Semeniuk shares with us how the brain works and ways to embrace pain as a tool to create our best lives. Kate Semeniuk helps people uncover the root and cause of their mental blocks and emotional struggles in a rapid transformational way.

The conclusion of our conversation about integrating spirituality and our sexuality. So often, there is a disconnect between our bodies and our spirituality. I’m excited to have this discussion to open up the dialogue that wholeness requires we celebrate the totality of our being. And that includes SEX! Join us for the conclusion of our conversation.

My guest on this episode is Dan Powers who is a former software engineer with an MBA that turned away from the mainstream ways of making a living to pursue a life of sex and intimacy education. He has seen first-hand how our culture supports a sophomoric and manipulative style of sex. There is much more to sex that insert block A into hole B and once we get past our cultural shame around sex and intimacy, we can begin to create connection in ways previously unimaginable.

On this episode of Belief Busters Podcast, Rev. Sheree talks about  setting your intentions for 2022. Today, we connect with God and our  highest self for clarity on what is ours to do this year by  participating in Unity's White Stone Ceremony. Why do we care about  creating intentions at the beginning of the year? Because we know, what  we hold in our mind is what we create in our lives.

The air and season are filled with love. This time of year, wants us to  create anew and share the sacred truth: we are all of God. Let’s look  back to a tumultuous time in our history and watch how even then, it was  possible to create anew. And if they could create anew during a  horrific time in history, then how will you listen to your guides to  create a loving and abundant life?

In our society there is a sense of “I’m right and everyone else that thinks differently is wrong.” Our conversation with Rev. Jerry Zehr asks the question: where do we get these thoughts and are our thoughts true? We deconstruct the idea that just because we were taught something doesn’t mean it’s true. And once we get past the myth that our self-worth is based on productivity, we have the ability to love ourselves. This shift to self-love then supports us to see others with compassion as we realize we have more in common than not.

Jerry Zehr, is a retired minister of over 36 years, working with interfaith ministries. Now more than ever, people are painfully divided politically, religiously, and culturally. And yet, there is a commonality in our faith traditions that can help us turn away from polarization and create a greater sense of community in which our differences are honored. New book "The Peacemaker's Path: Multifaith Reflections to Deepen Your Spirituality" brings together wisdom from the world's major religious traditions, including Bahá'í, Buddhism, Christianity, Hinduism, Islam, Jainism, Judaism, Native American spiritualities, Sikhism, Taoism, and Zoroastrianism, showing that we have much more in common than what divides us.

Did you know there are multiple creation stories? They come from different belief systems. Each story has a wonderful way of explaining, what sometimes feels unexplainable. Perhaps,  as we listen to these stories, we may think they are wild and crazy.  Maybe we even judge these early writers as primitive and uneducated. But is that any crazier than the stories we believe about our own creation and who we are in the world?

A huge part of the shadow work is looking at the stories we believe are true about ourselves. Because those stories are the energetic field in which we attract to us those things that resonate. If our creation story is of unworthiness, then we will attract more  situations that confirm our unworthiness. While if we have done our  shadow work, then our energetic field changes and we attract things of a  higher vibration, such as peace and harmony. Like attracts like. It’s  all about resonance.

As a child you may have internalized their words and actions to infer you are a bad child. As  children we don’t have the mental capacity to separate their words  about us as not a definition of us. So, as kids, each time these things  occur, we absorb them as this must be, who we are. Now  as adults our brains and emotions are highly developed and if we do our  work in psychological intelligence and self-awareness, we have the ability to realize there is more to the story than how we understood it as a child.

So, with this updated information we can modify the story.  In our present moment awareness, we can realize that our parents  reacted to us from survival instincts and their reactions to the  incident is no longer a defining moment in our psyche.  As  adults, awakened in consciousness, we have the capacity to bring the  child’s perception of trauma, and merge that with our new level of  understanding. It’s an opportunity for us, as evolved divine humans, we are creating new endings for the same  story. 

Now for the conclusion of this conversation: Ever wanted to talk about the religious abuse you have experienced? Well on this episode of Belief Busters Dale Lykins joins us to have an authentic conversation of institutional religion, which often has nothing to do with God. Today, we give you permission to question what you were taught be church authorities and how to make peace with the past while honoring your awakening. Yes, it’s still possible to have a mystical, loving experience with the divine regardless of race, gender, creed, or sexual orientation.

Dale Lykins is a pastor of a non-institutional church, life coach, speaker, and most recently, a writer. His work centers around the profound experience he had finding his true, authentic self, which included coming out as gay man at 55 years old, navigating the unique experience of a mixed orientation marriage, and leaving the institutional church after 30 years as a Methodist minister. Dale aims to help others discover what in their lives is holding them back--whether it be relationships, societal norms, institutions, and more, in favor of living a truer, more meaningful, more authentic life. I’ve invited Dale to talk about religious abuse.

Are you feeling frustrated because you feel like it's up to you to do everything? As women we have been conditioned to be the ones responsible for the home and kids. And as society has changed we also have full-time jobs and run companies. But there is still this belief that the home fires are are responsibility alone. On this episode of Belief Busters we will talk to Valerie Recore about shifting this mindset and stepping into partnership with our loved ones.

Valerie asks women to ponder an important question, where are the partners? She wants women to look at the roles we have been conditioned perform and then ask why are we doing this?

We all say that peace is so important in our lives. But sometimes it seems really difficult to achieve. Well on this episode of Belief Busters we will discuss how important your fully aware presence is to achieving inner peace. If you are feeling as if there are parts of you that must be kept hidden from others, or if you withhold pieces of yourself from other, then you may be feeling burdened. It’s difficult to feel peaceful when you are unable to show up authentically.  Today we speak with Justin Donne who will share tips with you on how to release those burdens, to allow you to be more present in your life.

Fast Track from being in the quagmire of the problem to the solution. On today’s episode we will discuss how prone the mind is to blame. Are our judgments: It’s their fault, it’s my fault, it shouldn’t have happened simply part of the human condition? Can we stop Awfulizing?!! If so, listen to some practical and loving tools to support you in stopping the blame, forgiving yourself and others, understanding human nature, and choosing to live in the solution.

When anything occurs in our lives that does not fit the paradigm of good happens, we call it bad and have thoughts about how bad it is, which creates feelings of sadness, anger, disappointment, frustration, embarrassment, shame, or blame. In this talk, Rev. Sheree gives us tips on how using the spiritual practice of "accepting all" can give you a new lease on life. Peace comes from acceptance and freedom comes from peace.

This episode of Belief Busters discusses shifting from the not good  enough belief into Soaring into Greatness!    Gail is a powerful, inspirational and entertaining speaker, author,  performer, and facilitator, who is totally blind. Her unstoppable  soaring spirit has led Gail to publish her memoir “Soaring into  Greatness: a Blind Woman’s Vision to Live her Dreams and Fly.” She has  experienced firsthand what it is like to cope with, and overcome a  disability, walk through societal, personal, and career discriminations,  and how to endure mental and physical atrocities. Gail has learned that  we must choose to align ourselves with our passions, focus our mind’s  attitude on positivity, and take action allowing us to harness our  adversities and break through our barriers creating a life of greatness

This talk is asking the question: are you on fire with the indwelling  Christ? It's part of the spirituality talk series, in which Rev. Sheree  calls us to ponder our purpose on planet earth.

Let’s have a real discussion about what awakening really means. Awakening is not a destination. Awakening is the spiritual journey. We will discuss with Nate Rifkin how the daily practice of deep meditation as taught by Taoism supports us on awakening.

When Nate Rifkin began his journey, he was suicidal and drank alcohol every morning. He dropped out of college, went broke, bankrupt, and even worked on street corners waving around a sign. However, Nate learned a little-known spiritual discipline that helped him transform his thoughts, emotions, and financial life. He’s published a book about his journey called The Standing Meditation.

Our discussion on Belief Busters challenges the idea there is only one faith that is of Truth, of God. My guest today affirms the awakened idea that any path that allows us to connect with Source is of value to the individual. The bottom line is we must awaken to raising our vibration in love and peace for mankind and the planet, while releasing the belief of separation and division.

Mothering has many faces and often it is not the face of the archetypal  nurturing mother. Today we celebrate your choice to be a mother, however  that manifested. We celebrate the person you chose to be your mother.  And for those who chose not to become mothers, we celebrate the ways you  nurture others.

Where do we get the belief that life is hard and you have to work yourself to the bones to have the American dream? It’d reinforced in our society to work hard to be a success. The step to wholeness can be a terrifying leap of faith, but so rewarding. Moving from external factors being the definition of who you are, to no longer needing to rely on job, raise, partner to define your worthiness. My spirit made the choice to be on this realm, honor that and have the best experiences of spirit and humanity.

Dmitria Burby is launching her first book in the fall that is a memoir of her healing journey as she moved from corporate executive to rediscovering and connecting with her soul and spirit, allowing her to unlock the life that she always dreamed of. Dmitria says the core of this healing journey is to let go of the belief that was handed down to her that life has to be hard, that we have to work ourselves to the bone in order to find success. She had to discover that success does not equate to happiness, that there is a whole other way to approach life. Dmitria feels her calling is helping women reconnect with their soul/spirit.

Awakening tip: Have the emotional reaction, become aware of it, sit with the emotion, recognize where it resides within your body. Then become the observer of the thoughts that you are holding which are creating the emotions and the world you reside in. The observer is the essence of who you are and the observer is the awakened one. You are not your thoughts or emotions; you are so much more.

The conclusion of our conversation with Andrew Ecker on Belief Busters Podcast discusses how to honor our ancestors and ancestry. Using sacred medicine we hold the experiences of our past traumas and see them for what they are, steps on our spiritual journey. We can choose to heal the traumas and honor the gifts we received from our ancestors. This is part two of two episodes. 

Andrew Ecker, author of the ‘The Sacred 7’, his ancestry is Apache, Irish, and German American. Born into an inheritance of trauma, both his parents were addicted to drugs and died very young. Mom, Kathy Lindsey from a cocaine overdose, father, Dale Ecker from HepC caused from intravenous drug use. Growing up in the height of the Reagan and Clinton “War on Drugs” policies led Andrew down a path of destruction that included cocaine and heroin abuse until he made a decision to change his life while serving 3.5 years in federal prison for drug charges. Andrew found healing in his life through the use of ancient technologies including drumming and a ceremonial introduction process of his Native American ancestry he outlines in his book ‘The Sacred 7’.

On this episode of Belief Busters we look at beliefs around aging. My guest Rev. Dr. Charles Geddes shares with us his perspective about the hidden vitality in aging. He suggests that if you believe you are not vital by a certain age then your body and life will reflect that belief. But if you let go of that erroneous belief you get to decide if you want to have a better life or a bitter life!!

Dr. Charles D. Geddes is a founding member of the Big Sky Retreat the oldest ongoing metaphysical retreat in the world. He has 50 years of ministry and served on the Board of Directors of International Centers for Spiritual Living.

And — he is moving to Montana!

What if in the beginning of the Christ Movement there were women apostles, priests, deacons, and bishops? Well hold onto your hats as we blow your beliefs that only men were spiritual leaders during the early church. On this episode of Belief Busters, Margaret Mary O'Connor and I discuss the reality that women of power have been erased from church history by patriarchal Roman politics. But you can do something about this fallacy, awaken to newly unearthed truths that women spiritual leaders existed and sign the petition to have the Catholic Church change their dogma to allow women to reclaim their power within the Church. 

Margaret Mary O’Connor has a Bachelor of Science Degree from the University of Buffalo, and a Master of Arts in Pastoral Ministry, from Christ The King Seminary in East Aurora, NY. She is a former Chaplain and currently is a Eucharistic Minister. She literally walks the walk, on picket lines to help keep the issues of Women’s Ordination and Church Accountability on the Priest Sexual Abuse Issue, at the forefront of any Catholic’s attention. She believes any Catholic deserves at minimal at least the truth from Rome, as opposed to the continual out right deception they are receiving. She also is a member of Call To Action, Future Church, Roman Catholic Women Priests, Women’s Ordination Conference and SNAP (Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests). Margaret’s goal is to initiate a World-Wide Conversation about the Factual Truth of Mary Mother Of God, being a Woman Priest, in the Catholic Church’s Early History. Margaret has written a book, Scandal in the Shadows about Mary as Priest. To sign the petition for change in the Catholic Church go to http://www.yourradicaltruth.com/

What if Hell and Satan were simply constructs created by the Church Fathers to keep us all in line? On this episode we will have a conversation about coming to the awakened understanding that God didn't create hell, mankind created hell. If God is the frequency of love, then the creation of hell can only be a construct of the human mind in it's attempts to understand morality, good and bad. What we will be talking about is the damage that some Christian faiths perpetrate on women.

And you're not alone! This episode of Belief Busters asks the question of how do we heal childhood trauma. We give you permission to feel those  feelings, challenge the thoughts of others telling you who you were, and to now be willing to change their beliefs to live a life well lived.   

Our guest is Fatima Oliver, she truly believes there is significant  power in the sharing of testimonies. We are all seeking to fill the  holes in our dissoluteness, with light and love. At the age of two she was recovering from burns on 25% of her body. By the age of ten she was emphatically convinced pain and family was synonymous. As an adult Fatima experienced the death of a child, abandonment issues, and physical abuse from a spouse that sent her spiraling.    

This entire journey birthed an inspirational memoir titled, "The  Prescription is in the Dirt". Now available in paperback and eBook version on Amazon.com. Throughout her journey she has learned key truth's:  

• Everyone needs a safe place to fall.     
• Emotions are meant to be acknowledged and not ignored.     
• A victim-mentality must change to a victor mindset.     
• It is okay to not be okay. But it is never okay to remain that way.

On this episode of Belief Busters we discuss Intermittent Silence as a technique not only for meditation but to support brain health. 

Our guest is Dr. Krishna Bhatta – He has merged medical science with meditative science in his technique which he calls Intermittent Silence. Intermittent Silence: close mouth, close eyes, silent listening, watching thoughts go by. He poses the question: Is it a belief or simply science hasn’t come to know it yet? His app: relaxx.org

So many religions teach that there is life after death, and our rewards will be found in this afterlife. On Belief Busters we ponder the question with our favorite medium, Jock Brocas. Jock Brocas is spiritual coach, parapsychologist, paranormal researcher, medium, an author who has written 5 books, including Dearly Departed, and entrepreneur.

On this episode we look at creative ways to look at emotional intelligence and self-awareness. What if we can have fun experiences while creating new beliefs? We will talk with Christina Eanes who is an escape room aficionado who has a blast challenging her beliefs and  gaining new insights.

On this episode of Belief Busters we will ask you to question your beliefs about wealth. Our guest is Gabe  Peterson-Grew up in a family like many of us, that believed for our  survival and well being we have to work a 9-5 job. He had to reprogram  understanding about wealth to a mindset of expansion, create your own  wealth and on your own terms. Gabe reminds us that when we change a  belief, we have to give our emotions time to catch up to the new belief.  He suggests giving ourselves permission to feel the fear and have  patience on the journey.https://www.therealestateinvestingclub.com/

Good old days is a cliché in popular culture. It is used to reference a time considered to mean a time in the past when you believe life was better than the now moment. It is a form of nostalgia which can reflect homesickness or yearning for long-gone moments. What do our spiritual teachers say about holding onto the past? What does yearning for the past mean to our peace of mind? How do we shift our focus from the "Good Old Days" to the "Wonder-filled New Ways?"

On our show we discern the difference between religious dogma/rules and  spirituality. Jock will define different types of spiritual gifts such  as claircognizance, clairvoyance, clairaudience, etc. This is a call to  honor your divine knowing, however, it manifests. The reality is all  gifts come from Source. Jock Brocas is spiritual coach,  parapsychologist, paranormal researcher, medium, an author who has  written 5 books, and entrepreneur.

"Talk to me I asked God, and he spoke."I am here, can't you hear me, I am  in the trees that you hear blowing in the breeze, I am the whistle in  the wind. I am within the water that you sit by, the crying of a child,  the voice of your friend, the whisp of the butterflies, the sight of the  rainbow. Open your eyes that you may see, your ears that you may hear  and your heart that you may know. I am here!" (Jock Brocas) Copyright
