Trying to change the external world (bending a spoon) to achieve happiness is a fool’s game; authentic transformations are an inside job. Join Renegade Life Coach Stephen Ladd for a bite-size, deep dive exploration into how your mind works, the meaning of (just about) everything, and maybe even a glimpse of your true nature. Frustrated spiritual seekers and worn-out personal development peepers welcome. Come on in, the water’s fine.
Note: It is suggested that you listen to this podcast at normal speed – CTFD (Calm The F*** Down) – there is no rush, nowhere else to be and nothing to do.
A wise woman once said nothing.
In this episode we’ll silently chat about stuff, including but not limited to the following:
“The eye with which I see God is the same with which God sees me.” – Meister Eckhart
In this episode we’ll grab some java with the Big Kahuna and ponder upon:
• The Divisive Nature of the Word “God”
• Am I a “Spiritual Coach”?
• Why There’s No Such Thing as Atheism
• The Bloody Act of Keeping Your Heart Open, and…
• Why It’s a Privilege to Bleed Out
“Forgive and forget? I’m neither Jesus nor do I have Alzheimer’s.”
In this episode, the first installment of listener submitted topics, we’ll ponder together upon:
• Psychological Innocence
• Why it’s Never “Just Your Thinking”
• The Falling Away of Forgiveness
• Why There’s No “Therefore”
“The Gulf Stream will flow through a straw provided the straw is aligned to the Gulf Stream, and not at cross purposes with it.” —Anne Lamott, Bird by Bird
In this episode I’ll share tidbits from a recent team-building workshop and ponder on the following:
“How to Calm the F*ck Down – A Mind-LESS-ness Meditation Experience”.
Unlike my usual podcast episodes, with this session it is suggested that you close your eyes, and allow yourself to enter into a deep state of relaxation. For that reason, if it’s not frickin’ obvious, please don’t listen to this while driving or operating heavy machinery, or while grooming your cat or anything, really, that might suffer from less-than your full attention.
Instead, I suggest that you sit back, kick your feet up, and relax for a spell.
Note: Ideally listen to this with earbuds, headphones, etc.
