She’s a self-described spiritual NON skeptic, the yin to my yang. We discuss how her pipeline to deeper spirituality was through radical self-love and acceptance and how starting to talk to God during her daily dog walks got her through a deep depression in the middle of both the covid pandemic and the tragic daily news cycle playing out in the US ..read more

Sara shares about how her intuition and spiritual gifts were dampened as a child and how she came to slowly turn them back up to full volume. We talk about the learnable skill of accessing your intuition, particularly distinguishing it from the voice of fear. And at the end she does a Tarot reading for all those listening, sharing what the Universe wants each of you to hear.

Angela Han is a lawyer and coach, currently referring to herself as The Anger Coach. She shares about the misunderstanding of emotions generally, but especially anger. We talk about radical self-acceptance–in all things, can you have your own back? Can you even have your own back when you can’t fully have your own back? When you’re at your absolute “worst”? As someone who is committed to self-acceptance but often find myself sneakily trying to fix myself in a million different ways, Angela and this episode were a much needed breath of fresh air.

I literally could not stop talking to Rodney on all things spirituality and religion. So much so that we made a decisio ..read more
