Jeffery Young – Beth: Legacy of Love

Aired Thursday, August 5, 2021, at 5:00 PM PST / 8:00 PM EST

The lessons learned in high school are often more than higher education. They involve socialization, adulting, personal responsibility, and personal values. What happens when two friends take divergent paths, and a tragedy awakens one to the truth of these values.

My guest this week on Vox Novus, Jeffery Young, shares the fictionalized story of two young women he attended high school with and the tragedy that led to transformation. Jeffery Young is an award-winning writer and Army veteran whose multi-faceted career has included work in the culinary field and the newspaper industry. Jeffery holds degrees in communications and criminal justice, and his work with AmVets California garnered interest from President Ronald Regan. He is also the author of the book, Tales Out of Church, which is a collection of short stories told by an over-imaginative Catholic priest. He joins me this week to share his heart warming and redemptive book, Beth: Legacy of Love.

Judy Wilkins-Smith – Understanding Your Health DNA

Aired Thursday, August 5, 2021 at 4:00 PM PST / 7:00 PM EST

In Episode 3 we’re going to be focusing on your health DNA, and uncovering how much of your current health condition is yours, and how much is being triggered by your ancestors. , and how much of it is

Our nervous system is not just our nervous system. We also have a multigenerational nervous system. And while some of our health responses may come from years of conditioning, abuse, lack of self-worth, or social indoctrination, oftentimes illnesses that show up may have arisen generations ago, expressing through us every time the generational trigger is activated.

According to Judy Wilkins-Smith, everything in our lives is geared to bring imbalance to our awareness so it can be corrected. This applies as much to our physical issues as our emotional or money or relationship issues. In fact, Judy describes our body’s ups and downs as a no-nonsense, blunt translator of whether we are on or off track, providing an exquisite compass for where we are and where we want to be. Moreover, with willingness, intention and work, these physical conditions can be changed and the trigger transformed into a launch pad.

Judy Wilkins-Smith is an international organizational, individual, and family patterns expert. A systemic coach, trainer, facilitator, and motivational speaker she’s the founder of System Dynamics for Organizations and Individuals, which utilizes constellations to help performance individuals, fortune 500 executives and teams, families, and individuals decode their Emotional and Organizational DNA to break limiting cycles, resolve long standing issues, and transform challenges into lasting breakthroughs.

Robert Thurman – Wisdom Is Bliss

Aired Wednesday, August 4, 2021 at 5:00 PM PST / 8:00 PM EST

The eighteenth-century English Poet, Thomas Gray, wrote, “Where ignorance is bliss, ‘tis folly to be wise.” This is an adaptation of the old proverb, “What you don’t know can’t hurt you.” My guest this week on Destination Unlimited, Robert Thurman, says that when it comes to the teachings of The Buddha, Wisdom Is Bliss. Robert Thurman, the preeminent scholar, and interpreter of Tibetan Buddhist philosophy for the modern world, leads us on a joyful exploration into the nature of reality through Buddha’s threefold curriculum of “super-education.”

Robert Thurman was Professor of Indo-Tibetan Buddhist Studies at Columbia University as well as Co-Founder and President of Tibet House US/Menla, in service of His Holiness, The Dalai Lama and the people of Tibet. A close friend of the Dalai Lama’s for more than 50 years, he is a leading worldwide lecturer on Tibetan Buddhism, passionate activist for the plight of the Tibetan people, skilled translator of Buddhist texts, and inspiring writer of popular Buddhist books.

Raging Love Affair

Air Date: Wednesday, 4 August 2021 at 5:00 PM ET/2:00 PM PT

This week’s show is talking about the ‘Raging Love Affair’ and How to Cultivate Being ‘In Love’ – Part One

This week’s show is going to dive into the unpredictable, unexplainable elements of intentional intimacy.

What makes the flame ignite and keep burning?

So often we begin to settle into a kind of familiar and comfortable routine with those we love and forget that we are the creators of intimacy, vibrancy, and sizzle. Sam will discuss how being ‘in love’ can be like lighting a candle, and another, and then another – making any relationship a beguiling and enchanting reality in your everyday life.

The 4 Love Languages introduced us to the idea that people love differently, but what happens when your love language doesn’t match up with another’s? How do you ‘up the game’ on love in your life?

It’s not as hard as you might think, it doesn’t have to be contrived, and you CAN fulfill your romantic and idealistic dreams while building a more solid foundation. But first you’ll need to get clear on what ‘Having a Raging Love Affair’ means to you.

Tap into your capacity and desire to bring love to your relationships with unexpected passion, captivating the heart in a way that makes your everyday feel extraordinary.

This week’s show offers you another way to think and BE in relationship as you learn new ways to light the fire that makes your soul smolder.

It’ll be a thought-provoking, inspiring hour for sure. And Sam invites you to CALL IN and CHAT LIVE and share your thoughts on ‘Being in LOVE’, to further the conversation. Go to samparrotto.com to submit your questions for this week’s conversation.

You won’t want to miss being an ‘ON AIR’ participant of Expedition Self. Sam will provide real insight, understanding and offer an opportunity to connect a new way of thinking to YOUR way of thinking.

Each week Sam discusses a different and highly accessible slice of building a stronger, deeper relationship with the inner Self so that YOU have the tools to become more and more whole.

Higher Ego Flexibility and Difficulty Interacting with People in Healthy Ways

Aired Wednesday, August 4, 2021 at 8:00 AM PST / 11:00 AM EST

This week on It’s Your Ego—Stupid!, Dr. Nick will be looking intensely into the mirror of our ability to interact with people in healthy ways. Another way of putting it is, “How good are we at getting along with people?” Not just friends and family, but people in general. Our success in connecting with people in the broader sense—acquaintances and strangers—has important implications for our social, emotional, and spiritual growth. It’s this growth that allows us to experience peace and love for all people, regardless of their background. Something, many people have trouble doing, which is having a harmful impact on the quality of their lives. Failure to cultivate this growth often sets the stage for mental health, marital, sexual, D&A, legal, and work adjustment difficulties. Unfortunately, for those experiencing lower or higher ego power, flexibility, and vulnerability, there are lots of ‘getting along with people’ issues, rooted in these ego energies, where they have become entrapped in thought, emotional, and behavior patterns, in which they are spending more time surviving in society rather than truly living.

Unfortunately, for those with higher ego flexibility, their overly flexible mind often leads them to readily accept what others are telling them to think or believe. They have difficulty questioning what others are telling them to think or believe, and can readily become followers—sometimes of the wrong people. Their overly flexible approach to what they are being told often leads them to accept it as truth or gospel. Slowly but surely, they take on the ideas, beliefs, values, prejudices, and even illusions of others, while losing themselves in the relationship. This undermines the forming of healthy relationships when someone stops being themselves and starts becoming someone else, in order to be in the relationship. A relationship in which someone loses connection to their truth in order to live in the truth of another person. Roles they may find their way into living, until they awaken to their ego energy, include the Cultist, the Loyalist, and the Adult Child.

During the show I’ll be looking at symptoms, reflections of ego stupidity, and the impact on spiritual wellness which occurs when a person is being affected by higher ego flexibility energy in their ability to interact with people in healthy ways. I’ll also be looking at specific ego insights needed to transform higher ego flexibility into a healthier and more balanced place.

Please join me Wednesdays at 11:00 am (ET) when I will be sharing what you’ve taught me about what ego’s doing within your life, humanly and spiritually.
