Synchronicity is the universe's way of winking at us, confirming we are on the right path. When we tune in to signs and symbols around us, we open the doorway to guidance, insight, and magic.

Today's guest, Jennifer Lyall, has learned to read these clues and weave her external world with her internal wisdom. As an intuitive business mentor, Jennifer helps conscious entrepreneurs gain clarity and focus so they can bring inspired ideas to life. She teaches spiritual principles for scaling businesses with integrity.

In this episode, Jennifer describes her journey of surrendering control and discovering a new sense of flow. She explains how she receives intuitive downloads through automatic writing and art. We discuss the responsibility we have when tuning into alternate timelines and energies. Jennifer also shares a powerful dream premonition that became reality.

Additionally, we explore the metaphysical relationship between pets and their owners. Jennifer leads us through an affirmation for revealing blessings, forgiving trespasses, and recognizing oneness. It's a wide-ranging conversation about mysticism and meaning. So, without any further ado, on with the show!

Anyone who's been involved in the Web3 space (or glanced at a news platform in the last few years) knows that it’s been nothing if not a wild ride! Just this past week we’ve been dealing with the aftermath of three bank failures. But it’s not all doom and gloom.
Those who dove into the deep end with crypto have either diversified, sold, gone bust, or simply hodled (that’s crypto speak for holding on for dear life). Whether it’s a bull market or a bear market, the world of cryptocurrencies comes with a lot of excitement, tension, and drama.

My guest on today’s show, Brenda Gentry, has been surfing that wave beautifully. As in all things in her life, she mixes faith with her every decision, both personal and professional, and she considers pioneering the Web3 world a marathon – not a sprint.

I actually had the privilege of interviewing Brenda twice! We didn’t intend for this to be a two-part interview, but so much has changed with the crypto market since the recording was made last year, I really wanted to do a follow-up with her.

Brenda is a Blockchain Advisor, Entrepreneur, and the CEO of BundlesBets.com. She’s known in the crypto community by her handle CryptoMom. In this episode, we talk about Brenda’s tight-knit family, and how her daughters turned her onto crypto. She recalls making a big splash when she announced on Twitter that she quit her job working for USAA to dive head-first into the Web3 waters. Her story, highlighting her focus on building generational wealth, was picked up by CNBC and other mainstream media outlets.

Even if you’ve written off crypto as some sort of ponzi scheme, I urge you to keep an open mind as you listen to this episode. I’m confident that Brenda’s infectious excitement, wisdom, and unshakable faith will inspire and educate you.

So, without any further ado, on with the show!

Artificial Intelligence is evolving quickly; some argue faster than humanity can cope with. What can’t be argued is how sweeping the impact of AI will be on the world. As all this continues to unfold, what’s the impact for us now and in the future? And how will it affect the next generation?

In this episode, Dr. Ben Goertzel and I dive deep into the intricacies and possibilities of artificial intelligence and the urgent need for us humans to prepare for this brave new world.

If you'd like to understand the benefits, risks and implications of AI from one of the top minds in the field, you’re in the right place. This episode is packed with thought-provoking insights from one of the most sought-after futurists. Dr. Ben made a compelling case for decentralizing AI and why it's our mission not to let it be controlled by a single organization. We even discussed how superintelligent machines connect with spirituality.

Do you believe in the power of intuition? Do you make all your important decisions in life based at least in part on intuition?

Everyone wants more money, more freedom, less work, and a higher quality of life. My guest, Justin Donald, leads this kind of life and teaches others how to have this kind of life too. Through what he calls “lifestyle investing”, he was able to achieve the freedom he desired.

Justin is the author of the #1 Wall Street Journal bestselling book The Lifestyle Investor: The 10 Commandments of Cash Flow for Passive Income and Financial Freedom. Entrepreneur Magazine calls Justin the "Warren Buffett of Lifestyle Investing." He's a master of low-risk cash flow investing, specializing in simplifying complex financial strategies, structuring deals, and disciplined investment systems that consistently produce profitable results. His ethos is to "create wealth without creating a job."

In the span of 21 months and before his 37th birthday, Justin's investments drove enough passive income for both he and his wife Jennifer to leave their jobs. Following his simple investment system and 10 Commandments of Lifestyle Investing, Justin negotiated deals with over 100 companies, multiplied his net worth to over eight figures, and maintained a family-centric lifestyle in less than two years. Then, just two years later, he doubled his net worth again. Justin now consults and advises entrepreneurs, executives, and successful media personalities on lifestyle investing.

In this episode, Justin shares the journey that led him to cash flow investing and how he diversified his investments. He also talks about hedging, buying assets with OPM (other people's money), cryptocurrency, investing strategies, negotiation tactics, and much more.
