In this episode of Wake Up To Real Love, Dawn welcomes certified Christian sex coach Heather Tucker to the show to discuss her journey from growing up in the church and the issues with sex education. Discover the importance of understanding your body, why it’s essential to remove the uncomfortability around sex and how you can have a better romantic relationship when you’re open and honest.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Often religious couples are uncomfortable about talking about sex and it’s put down to something that each couple has just to figure out themselves.
Not talking about sex in the church is a huge generation passing down of uncomfortability. Our brains have questions that don’t get answered and we are left having to learn about sex and ourselves.
It’s vital for both men and women to learn about your own body, what turns you on, gets you aroused and the best practices to take to communicate your love is essential to your happiness.
If you are open and honest when you enter a romantic relationship, you're going to have way better sex and communication with your partner.

BEST MOMENTS

“Nobody really talks about it.”

“When my kids were growing up and I said, I don't want them to feel awkward like I felt awkward.”

“Lots of kids grow up not even knowing the correct terminology.”

We are all the sum of a multitude of things, each crucial to overall health, success and happiness. In this episode, Dawn is joined by holistic Transformation Coach Simone Gisondi. She shares her inspirational journey from trauma to purpose, how we can create self-worth, why we are conditioned to a certain environmental mindset and how we are simply on a journey to remind ourselves of our true beauty, love, joy and connection.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Mindset is so much more important than anything else, what state of mind are you in? How happy are you? Being at peace with yourself plays such a large role. Mind, body, heart and soul.
People turn to substances, risky behaviours and even crime to be able to express themselves. People seek an outlet and we subconsciously do things that are so foreign to us, and we are not even in the state of awareness that what we're doing is actually trying to allow that trauma to come to finality.
The feeling of self-worth can have the biggest impact on you. If you do not have it, you become ingrained with the feeling that you are not worthy of happiness, praise or anything of value. You need self-worth to be able to grow and evolve as a person.
Your mindset is not always from you, you are conditioned to have your own sense of intrinsic worthiness because you weren't cared for, you weren't nurtured and you didn't feel safe in your own home. Your environment forms your mindset and it’s up to your awareness to understand that it is not right to break free.
We're all here to help, uplift each other and come back to this place of love and acceptance for who we are at our core. We're not broken. We don't need to be fixed. We are on this journey to remind ourselves of our true beauty and nature, which is pure love and joy and connection.

BEST MOMENTS

“I remember the emotional impact that the words of my doctor had on me.”

“Trauma plays a huge role in one's life and health overall.”

“Affection was almost forbidden, we just did not show affection in our family.”

“Hurt people, hurt people.”

MJ joins the Wake Up To Real Love show to share her journey to self-love and fulfilment. Dawn and MJ discuss the importance of a vision and taking control of your life, why we all how the power to create something bigger than ourselves and explain why everybody is worthy of love.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Some people can pretend in their relationship, hold in their emotions and settle but by doing this you’re not being true to yourself and fulfilling your potential
When two egos are going against each other in a relationship it is unproductive and nothing will ever get solved.
Communication is essential to a successful relationship, the ability to be open and show compassion can really help to open the lines of communication between partners.
It’s important to know where you’re going and not just let life happen to you. Having a mood board, and a vision will allow you to take more control over your life.
Supporting each other is essential to creating something bigger than yourself. When you have the support that gets you, you can co-create together.
If you pursue whatever your creative endeavours are and pursue your sense of fulfilment, pursue your creating a beautiful relationship with yourself and really honour who you are, then when somebody else shows up in your life, you have so much more to offer and more to create.
We all have the power to create something new for ourselves when we focus our time and energy. When you’re able to really nourish yourself and love yourself, that’s when you carry that energy forward into a really beautiful and co-created relationship.
No matter what happened in the past, whatever you envision, that's what you can create. You're never given a vision without also being given the power to make it come true.

BEST MOMENTS

“There's a certain point where I guess I was finding myself, growing and we were growing in a different direction.”

“In order for both of us to be happy and true to ourselves, it wasn’t going to work out.”

“Because I wasn’t working on myself the idea of working, having more money and going on holiday just became a repetitive thing that society teaches us to do.”

“Everyone is worthy of love.”

In this episode of Wake Up To Real Love, Dawn is joined by a music aficionado, voice talent coach, and author Mick Smith. Together they discuss Mick's struggles with parental alienation, how got into music, and his journey from pain to purpose.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Love is important but alone it is not enough to sustain society and structural stability is always needed.
There’s always hope on the other side. You have to believe that and not give up hope because the truth will prevail, goodness wins over evil.
No greater love does a man have than the pride to lay down his life for another. If you can lay down your life and give up whatever you need or want for that other person, you are turning your pain into your purpose.
Fear, anger and resentment are all lower vibration energies, that do not help you heal or move forward in your life. Low vibration energy keeps you stuck in the past.
Find a purpose that gets you out of bed in the morning and out into the world. It’s the best thing you can do to help yourself get past difficult and traumatic times.

BEST MOMENTS

“Religions provide guidelines for relationships”

“Society has killed God, leading to chaos and unhappiness.”

Dawn welcomes back the founder of IDEA Seminars, Master NLP and DHE trainer and expert at helping people transform their lives, Rex Steven Sikes. Together they discuss the infinitesimal power of the brain and how you can transform yourself and your life to create winning momentum.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Winners win. The more you win with the small things, the more momentum you will build and you will create life, the more a habit of winning.
You can transform yourself easily and when hardships come up, you're better equipped to handle them. There is always a way out of the turmoil, there is a way to change your life but it begins with tiny steps.
Success is tied to your self-belief and everything that's ever happened to you in your life, every experience you've ever had, every feeling you've ever had, good or bad or whatever constitutes a resource. So you are infinitely resourceful.
We can't even begin to understand the number of neural connections we can make in the brain. The connections our brain has to wire and rewire are infinitesimal. It's beyond anything we could imagine.

BEST MOMENTS

“A lot of people who go bankrupt understand that there's really nothing to fear about bankruptcy.”

“Bankruptcy isn’t pleasant but it, but I survived it.”

“Tiny steps, in the long run, will end up becoming a great solution, relief and opportunity.”

“Our bodies have a myriad of processes that are going on sequentially and simultaneously.”

“The conscious mind is just a tiny sliver of everything that we are.”

Real love is looking past everything that's happening. Love is unconditional. Dawn welcomes renowned B2B strategic marketer Kindra Black to the show. Kindra shares her emotional personal journey and why you must learn to love yourself and trust your gut.
KEY TAKEAWAYS

An emotional relationship with somebody else is even worse than a physical relationship with someone else because you just have a connection and a deeper intimacy with that person.
How much time, energy, and effort are you putting into creating what you want out of your relationship? It’s always easier to deal with the status quo but if you want a different life, you need to change things.
How do you love yourself? Have faith and trust your gut, and always aim to surround yourself with people that love and believe in you because fighting never resolves anything.
We all deserve compassion and forgiveness. What you choose as an adult in your relationships or for your children as a parent is your choice.
Our greatest source of suffering is the way that we change things for the better, in our own life and for our children.

BEST MOMENTS

“When it comes down to it, you kind of question yourself.”

“I just wanted more for my life.”

“Doubt and insecurity turn into fear.”

“Real love is raw emotion and essential for finding purpose in life.”

In this episode of Wake Up To Real Love, Dawn is joined by an internationally recognised inspirational and innovative leader who specialises in helping businesses achieve exponential growth, Claire Oatway. Together they discuss how leadership has changed over the years, how creativity in the boardroom is shaping growing companies and why understanding what’s important to your customers is essential to success.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

The Leadership field has changed over time. There has been a shift to be much more engaging within a workforce and within an organization. There is an emphasis on cross-organisation collaboration in order to gain a wider view from other members of the team to build the business more successfully.
Diversity in leadership with women leaders and people of different ethnic and socioeconomic backgrounds is challenging traditional leadership and there has now been a shift in the strategy literature that says you don't have to compete, you don't have to compete for finite resources. You can actually create completely new products, new ideas and new markets through collaboration and creativity.
Creativity in boardrooms as opposed to an engineering approach has shifted the way we experience leadership and competition for talent. A new approach is really pushing leaders to be authentic and to deliver the promises that they set out.
To have a successful business you need to understand what's important to consumers right now, what's going on in terms of technology and what are people excited about. Why? Because technology is driving change within businesses.

BEST MOMENTS

“When everyone is involved building a business is a lot more fun as people bring their passion, energy and excitement. Many workforces are now truly engaging with their team instead of just ticking the box.”

“A lot more companies now really care about the people who work for them.”

“The workplace is starting to shift to really focus on collaboration.”

“It's really expensive to recruit people and you lose productivity if you do not have a stable workforce.”

We cannot forgive anyone unless we love and forgive ourselves. Evidential Spiritual Medium and best-selling author Jock Brocas joins The Wake Up To Real Love podcast to share his journey from the monastery becoming the spiritual mentor to leaders and change makers. Discover how to forgive yourself, why you must overcome grief to learn and how you must accept yourself empathetically.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Be aware of the trials, tribulations and falsehoods that you will come up against in life. People often think that in grief you can heal, but the reality is that it's impossible to heal through grief because grief is a journey and development of the soul. You don't heal through grief at all, you come to a level of acceptance.
Grief becomes our greatest teacher if you are honest and accepting of it. You will learn more when you experience a loss or trauma because until then you will not truly understand the capacity of grief and what can be discovered within it.
Learn to accept yourself and the things you have done wrong in the past. If you’re able to accept a level of empathy with yourself and understand that guilt is a behaviour and emotion, you can uncover an empathetic acceptance and awareness of your journey. You may not heal from trauma but you can accept it.
Forgiveness is not a skill that you develop or get better at. It is not temporary, forgiveness is a divine power that is inherent in all of us and you have freedom of choice to wield that power or not.

BEST MOMENTS

“I would go to church every day but the interesting thing was that as much as I was indoctrinated into a dogmatic faith system, I couldn't help but question it.”

“We all are students.”

“I learned more when I lost my father because I probably didn't understand grief to the capacity that I then discovered.”

“Forgiveness is something that you develop even more through awareness, compassion, understanding yourself and loving yourself.“

Dawn is joined by one of the highest sales performers in the world, Ian Koniak. Ian shares his unique story from mastering sales to overcoming addiction and finding true love in his marriage.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

If you can master sales you can achieve whatever you want, it allows you to have freedom and freedom of choice. But it comes with a lot of pressure to perform and to support your family.
Most people believe that their self-worth comes from their net worth and if they cannot provide for their family they are a loser but that is not true.
Men and women are socialised differently around sex and there are double standards and different paradigms depending on if you’re a man or a woman.
Integrity means being open and honest about what you're doing when no one's looking. That's all it is.

BEST MOMENTS

“I was very determined to do whatever it took to be successful and achieve the goal of bringing my ex-girlfriend to the US.”

“My career success was what defined me. I saw myself on paper as what society says is great. I saw myself as really successful but in the other areas of my life I was not, I had problems with addiction.”

“I didn't really recognize it as childhood trauma at the time because I hadn't gone through therapy.”

“If I wasn't making the money and getting the results, I didn't feel worthy.”

“I nearly lost everything and that's what prompted me to go get the proper help.”

Dawn welcomes the founder of the Omni Media Company and author of multiple best-selling books, Julie Lokun. Julie shares her journey from lawyer to podcaster and the trauma and relationships she’s experienced and overcome along the way.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

If you open your heart up to opportunities, you never know where it's going to take you. Every person we meet changes the trajectory of our lives. But people are so afraid to say yes and move out of their comfort zone.
Anger is a secondary emotion. It's coming from somewhere else. it's just easier to blame everybody else instead of looking introspectively and saying, how can I change? What did I do wrong? How did I contribute to this issue?
There's usually somebody who has the emotionality of the relationship and then there's the other person who is responsible for the structure of the relationship.
Because we try to be perfect and portray the perfect image we destroy ourselves internally and there's this huge imbalance between both men and women as women are conditioned to be sad, cry and to be upset whilst men are the opposite.

BEST MOMENTS

“I found myself really unsettled in my soul, so that's how I transitioned from lawyer to podcaster.”

“I just love elevating the voices of others, those who are wanting to make an impact in the world, and I see podcasting as an amazing tool to do it.”

“A comfort zone is a scary place to be. I like to push myself outside the box and meet new people and talk to new people but you also have to stay focused.”

“A relationship means sharing a slice of your life but no one likes to connect with someone who is perfect.”

Deborah Driggs is known for her acting, dancing, and modelling, she is also a top-rated insurance professional and was even a playboy centerfold! Deborah now focuses her time and passion on helping women break through negative self-talk, take on challenges and build themselves the lives they deserve.

Deborah joins Dawn to talk all about her mission, the journey that got her to where she is today including her success in the acting world as well as her struggles with addiction.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Deborah and Dawn both worked as flight attendants for Airlines in the 1980s. They both learnt how to deal with frightening emergencies and how to remain calm under immense pressure.
Following some work modelling in Japan, Deborah decided that on her return to the U.S. she wanted to work in commercials, and this is exactly what she did. She recognized this as a pivotal moment in her life.
After having a successful career in commercials, print and some bit parts, Deborah was given an opportunity to have a lead role, but she needed to take some acting classes to be hired.
Deborah met her husband and got married in 92’, she had her first child in 93’ and her final acting role was in 98’. She was in a new era of her life.
Deborah struggled with alcoholism most of her life, she now recognizes that this was part of the generational trauma that she was carrying.
After the breakdown of her marriage, Deborah fell deeper into her addiction and even contemplated suicide.
She entered rehab and managed to stay sober for a while but after getting a new job she convinced herself that she wasn’t an alcoholic and she began drinking again.
To most, things looked great for Deborah. But she was miserable, she was just good at putting on a mask.
If you aren’t living your authentic self, then regardless of money or status you have nothing.
Deborah discovered she needed to tackle her issues and trauma head on, it was only this that allowed her to heal, from her trauma, suffering and addiction. She now helps others do the same.

BEST MOMENTS

“If there’s a struggle there’s a problem and in that problem, there is a beautiful solution”

“That was probably the most pivotal moment of my life, I knew I was on the right track”

“Everything that people said I wouldn’t be able to do, I just found a way to do it”“I do have a bit of success anxiety”

“Everything looked good on the outside”

In a special episode of Wake Up To Real Love, Dawn is joined by neuroscientist, tenured psychology professor, international speaker, and founder of the Academy of Cognitive and Behavioral Neuroscience, Dr Hayley Nelson. Together they discuss how she is making neuroscience approachable for everyone, what can be learned from studying the psychology of the brain and how our brain forms connections.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Understanding cognitive and behavioural neuroscience allows you to swallow a knowledge of how the brain works in real-life situations and give you the power to serve clients better.
Men's behaviour vs women's behaviour can seem very different in certain situations, but really the fundamental structures are similar. Men are more conditioned and goal-orientated whereas women are more conditioned to be communal and collaborative.
Neurons are the specialised cells that make up the brain and the nervous system. They generate electricity and communicate with each other through chemical reactions or chemical releases known as neurotransmission.
We have an infinite number of possible connections that we can make and that's why genetically identical twins can react and respond very differently to the same stimulus. It’s all built through experience that neural pathways use to communicate.

BEST MOMENTS

“Our brain weighs only three pounds in mass but contains 80 to 100 billion neurons.”

“There’s an infinite number of connections in the human brain.”

“Some people look up at the universe and feel how small they are but we have that between our ears.”

Dawn welcomes back award-winning and internationally renowned professional consultant Doug Gordon to the show in a brand new episode of Wake Up To Real Love. Together they discuss how to create happy and healthy relationships, the need for emotional intelligence and how the energy of love encapsulates us all.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Sometimes the love you have for someone will always remain and needs not to change, however, the relationship may need to change because it may not be helpful or healthy for anyone in its current capacity.
The encapsulating energy of love, energy and connection never alienates or discriminates against anybody in this world.
Religions are like rivers, they're all beautiful but they’re all just different paths to the sea.
The biggest reason why we have wars in this world is that we all have opinions. We all have one. It's so important to make sure that we really understand each other with empathy and compassion and emotional intelligence. We need to respect and appreciate other people’s perspectives, where they are and where they come from.
For all relationships in life to work you need to rely on terms of conscious communication and active listening, not just listening, but actually hearing and listening to the conditions, expectations, needs, and values of someone.
Many of us lack emotional intelligence, lack the feeling of safety and the ability to trust in ourselves, we lack a sense of love.

BEST MOMENTS“The main problem with my marriage was that I encountered a near-death experience and that experience changed me.”
“It was like I was encapsulated in it, connected to everything and there was no man with a beard, but there was a living, conscious, loving energy that was surrounding me.”
“The biggest power in the world is your inner power and that comes from love.”

Dawn welcomes the founder of Reclaim Your Life and 2x number one, international best-selling author Irina Shehovsov to the show to discuss how to overcome toxic relationships and learn how to listen to your inner voice. Irina shares her personal journey from pain to purpose and the lessons learned along the way that helped her reclaim her identity.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

We have big bodies but on the inside, we’re still kids and it’s important to open up and be creative. It doesn’t matter how you are you should still have a hobby to help express your emotion.
We shouldn’t stop doing the things we’re passionate about to accommodate our partner, we’re taught that family comes first but as women, we end up boxing ourselves in and putting out own happiness to one side when we’re in a relationship or start a family.
As children, we are being conditioned to always comply with the figure of authority, whether it's our immediate family, our parents, or our caregivers. This translates to a husband too and women are taught to comply but as a result, they can lose their sense of identity.
We forget to listen to our inner wisdom and our inner voice because the answer is always within sight. The question is, are we listening sometimes it's our ego that is always screaming when we are not treated fairly, but there’s a tiny little voice somewhere in the back, very quiet, waiting to be heard.
You need to create a practice of meditation, of forgiveness to be able to heal that little voice and to recognise when it's speaking and to respond to it instead of placing our authority into other people's hands.

BEST MOMENTS

“I love exploring creativity and different aspects of it. So dancing was that outlet for me.”

“Dancing helped me get back home to myself and realise what I’m capable of and how amazing it makes you feel.”

“My happiness doesn't matter right now because I need to take care of all of this.”

“I was so compliant and complacent that I didn’t raise my voice to voice my objections and I lost my identity.”

Dawn is joined by the founder IDEA Seminars, Master NLP and DHE trainer and expert at helping people transform their lives, Rex Steven Sikes. Together they discuss Rex’s journey to his true purpose, the power of acting and self-expression and explore how Neuroscience is validating ancient chakra beliefs.
KEY TAKEAWAYS

Acting is truly a beautiful way to learn self-expression and to overcome the sorts of limitations we put on ourselves by actually practicing and rehearsing them.
Practice spiritual, emotional, mental, financial, and transformational principles. If you practice them, you can get good at them, refine them and take control of your life. Aim to recondition yourself in a positive way and you will experience all sorts of wonderful joy and possibilities that would have otherwise passed you by.
Life is like a buffet, instead of avoiding experiences, go and try them. It’s all part of the reconditioning process. Learn to meditate, learn to bring back gratitude and expressiveness and enthusiasm and exuberance to all that you do.
Neuroscience today is validating what the ancient chakras knew decades ago. Everything goes through the heart, it goes up, down or passes through, and in order to embrace the fullness of your being, your heart and head have to be in alignment.

BEST MOMENTS“I've encouraged everybody from all walks of life to take acting lessons because it is an opportunity to explore who you are and what you can bring to the table.”
“You can't dip and dabble, you have to dive in.”
“When your head and your heart are aligned and you're dedicated to a mission or a purpose, then everything starts working in order. Then you can use your power.”

Life On Your Terms: Create The Life You Want

In this episode of Wake Up To Real Love, Dawn is joined by an award-winning and internationally renowned professional consultant, TEDx speaker, and CEO and corporate trainer, Doug Gordon. Together they discuss Doug’s journey from national hockey player to certified mental wellness practitioner, why our parents are teachers and why you should give out unconditional love without expectation.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

There are lots of things that you can learn from playing in a sports team that can be brought into the corporate world as well. Managing your emotions and controlling your state of mind is one.
Communication and presentation skills are very important in sales the better you present the more money you’re going to make. Why? Because with better communication comes more aligned and positive relationships.
Our parents are teachers and everybody has their own past relationships and experiences that are seen from different angles and perspectives in life. So always ask the question to understand someone, rather than making assumptions.
So many people experience such hardship and challenges in their life that they end up carrying baggage around. But you have to figure out how to have resilience and create results and aincredible life.
Give without the expectation of anything in return, that's unconditional love. Unconditional love is not transactional, it’s given out of the love to help, support and encourage your partner.

BEST MOMENTS

“Maybe there's something from our previous lives that we connect with.”

“Wow, I'm in the wrong industry, I need to move into the financial world.”

“I really enjoyed the people side of sales in terms of connecting with so many different amazing people out there that are still working in the industry as well.”

“I see love as a vibrant energy.”

“I’ve got two different perspectives in terms of ying and yang, but both moulded well together in terms of learnings to help me grow.”

“I believe in the laws of the universe in terms of positive and negative.”

“You're conditioned to perform in order to receive love, in order to get love, you know, in order to get some sort of validation and recognition.”

Dawn is joined by author, speaker and coach Janet Grace Nelson. Janet is passionate about connecting and empowering people to find their inner power to create a life of freedom and fulfilment. Janet and Dawn talk about why so many people are disconnected in their lives, why we need to break through the ego-superficialities of society and what we can all do to reconnect to our inner-self and feel loved, by ourselves and the rest of the world.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Connecting with mother nature and mother earth allows us to feel unconditional love. We can start to recognise our truth and remember who we truly are.
Often difficulties or pains in life can make us become disconnected from who we are and the life we want to lead.
Healing is how we can recognise who we are as a whole. Healing can be painful and isn’t easy but it’s a necessary step to becoming who we truly are and learning who we are deep down.
Those who hurt others usually come from a place of needing to do their own healing.
Many people battle with what they want to do and what they feel like they have to or are obligated to do. This can cause an internal battle making it almost impossible to live their authentic lives.
If you are struggling with your sense of self, find a community and find content such as podcasts, to learn who you are and recognise your worth.

BEST MOMENTS

“Mother nature is our greatest teacher, she’s our greatest healer”

“We have to feel to heal”

“I love you, but I love me more”

“Not through your eyes, but seeing yourself through your heart”

Dawn is joined by a passionate champion for the divine feminine, Barry Selby. Together they discuss the different functional mindsets of men and women, where we live within their spectrum and why we have the power to control our own environment and become our own creators.
KEY TAKEAWAYS

Functionally men and women think differently, and it’s natural. Men compartmentalize and focus on completing things and achieving a goal or objective. For men, the most comfortable place is when a task is finished.
Women often get more enjoyment from the journey and the exploration of a goal. A woman's energy is about enjoying what's happening, exploring and embracing everything.
Men like to dance on the edge of openness, aliveness and dark contemplation. Men often take more risks physically because death is kind of a man’s greatest challenge.
There’s a difference between being life focused vs emptiness focused. Naturally, men and women are at different points on the spectrum due to the difference between masculine and feminine polarity.
We can choose what we want to be on the spectrum at any one point in time. We have freedom to choose, the environment does not control it but in-fact we control ourselves in our own environment. We are the creator.

BEST MOMENTS“Your journey is about making mistakes and then diving into personal growth and development to grow.”
“I had a transformational experience and a parallel shift in 2007 when I realized I needed to live my life.”
“We live somewhere on life focused vs emptiness focused spectrum”

Author, speaker, personal development and relationship coach Karína J. Solomon joins the show to shine a light on empowerment for both men and women to be their authentic and unadulterated selves. Listen in and learn how to reverse the ripple effect, why so many marriages end up in divorce and Karina shares some insightful personal stories of growth and development.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Do you have what you need to be able to be abundant? As a woman, many times we can just end up giving and giving which ends up depleting us because that is what we feel our value is and we end up depressed, dissatisfied and unfilled.
We become dead inside, reactive and angry and end up blaming other people for our lack of fulfilment, it's a ripple effect. So why not have the ripple effect go up instead of down?
Often, people who even up in divorce don't do enough work interpersonally in their relationship and personally, before that. A marriage is two people who come together as a whole and not from a place of neediness, not from a place of lack but 100% commitment.
We all want to feel a sense of intimacy and that we are seen for who we are. We want to uplift and empower each other and use our gifts of love and life to build the relationships we desire and to feel loved, valued and connected with our partners.

BEST MOMENTS

“Karina’s style is bold and edgy, and she seeks to empower both men and women to be their authentic and unadulterated selves.”

“Words are really important to forming a successful relationship.”

“I get blindsided when people don't do what they say and don't make good on their agreements or renegotiate when they wanna change.”

“An affair is not the other person's fault. It's the responsibility of both people.”

“If you have children or a full-time job, don't even think about being polyamorous because it is a full-time job”

Dawn is joined by mindfulness coach, breathwork facilitator, meditation guide and international speaker Michele Schalin. Listen in and discover simple and effective techniques to help you handle anxiety, depression, PTSD, physical pain, and more. Learn how to have more control over your thinking and change your subconscious beliefs to transform your life.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

We all inherently know that we need to hunker down and cultivate more self-love within ourselves to be happy. We need to be comfortable and know who we are and connect with ourselves instead of trying to escape outside of ourselves which we’re taught our whole lives.
If you're really focused on healing certain trauma and cultivating self-love, forgiveness and acceptance, it will amplify to other areas of your life.
You can reprogramme yourself by positively connecting with yourself, and educating yourself about the brain, the body, your thoughts, and your beliefs and training your brain and your spiritual connection.
A deeper level of healing, whether it be breathwork, or mental meditation or any other, when you practice self-love and address trauma and weep, you will overcome past negative experiences and find more peace.

BEST MOMENTS

“My biggest fear was to be alone and I couldn't have been more alone.”

I was so outside my comfort zone that I grew like a rocket.”

“I did a lot of meditation and put myself in a cocoon.”

Founder and CEO Certified Matchmaker at AVConnexions Arlene Washburn joins the show. Learn how to communicate effectively, how to recognise and reaffirm your accountability in your relationships and why bringing communication to the forefront of your consciousness will help you build beautiful and healthy relationships.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

People think that we don't have arguments because we have beautiful, healthy relationships, but we all have conflicts.
The thing about relationships is that you can never learn everything about someone, just like you can never learn everything about yourself, why? Because we’re always growing. So you need to keep a strong connection and interaction with each other to continue to learn.
It’s important to recognise your contribution to your relationship in situations of conflict. We need to recognise and reaffirm our own position and responsibilities in our relationships.
People want to be seen, heard and understood and having the awareness to validate others by bringing communication into your consciousness will help you to operate in a different and more successful way.
People that were brought up in a chaotic environment often don’t know how to communicate or express their emotions in healthy and constructive ways.

BEST MOMENTS

“Conflict in a relationship helps us get to know one another.”

“The whole point of communicating bidirectionally is to understand give and take.”

“You must always attempt to communicate and find the best ways to communicate in any given situation.”

Dawn is joined by somatic sex educator and embodied counsellor Steve Oskard to discuss how people can experience how they hold their life stories in their bodies and how they are limiting their potential.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Human beings keep doing things that have suffering results but constantly expect differing outcomes.
Our education system is filled with canned responses and goal-oriented pathways that take you from point A to point B. But if you don’t want to follow somebody else's path you need a different kind of coach and therapy is focused on pointing you back to you.
There are no guaranteed results but unless you follow the process and you take responsibility for the work, then will always just hold yourself back.
As a parent, you want to be a guide and a mentor for them. To share your experience of what helped you get through X, Y, Z. That's where that sort of mothering, parenting instinct comes from.

BEST MOMENTS

“I now integrate counselling work with embodied work so that people can experience how they hold their life story in their bodies.”

“I help people understand the experience of one's life story and how it's limiting and how they hold that in their bodies.”

“I've described my experience with my mother as an echo chamber of my own doubt.”

“I was seeking the deeper answers of life.”

“Tune into your soul” Dawn is joined by intuitive mentor, author and TEDx speaker, Anick Patry. Together they discuss how to connect with your ancestral energy, how to create who we truly are and why our natural core is full of love, vibrant energy and positivity.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Your body just naturally wants to move, It's not something pre-programmed, it’s liberating and full of self-expression. Dance is a very powerful moving meditation that uses our body’s energy to flow.
Most people’s core nature is vibrant, joyful and full of positivity, however, we’ve all been so suppressed that we forget who we truly are.
Connecting your ancestral energy is liberating. It’s a spiritual learning experience where you will learn to move through past traumas, open your heart, expand and discover your passion.
People project their own fears and traumas onto you which will in turn suppress your true nature. Your true nature is being connected with life and being open to receive.
We are creators. All we want to do is be seen and heard for who we truly are. We are pure love and joy but we’re conditioned to disengage and disconnect from life. We forget our true nature. ]

BEST MOMENTS

“I believe that we are more than this beautiful body that we have.”

“I learned a passion, I learned to surrender and it was spiritual learning for me.”

“You need to tune into your soul, tap into your intuition and open your heart so that you can create from a place of love.”

Being true to yourself is empowering and freeing. In this episode of Wake Up To Real Love, Dawn is joined by mind, power, life and relationship coach Rabia Piracha. Discover how to connect your mind with your heart, how to learn from your painful emotions to gain courage and why being in the present is so incredibly powerful.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Once you connect with yourself there’s an automatic connection between your head and your heart. Take three deep breaths and all of the racing thoughts you’re not even aware of become clear and there is a path that appears for you to follow. It’s natural when you’re in sync.
Identify the deep-rooted values that are important to you and connect with them. Be transparent with yourself and self-expression so you can challenge yourself and grow.
We are all unique human encyclopedias and there are so many lessons inside us all that we can learn, but it’s acting on those lessons that takes courage.
Many of us carry painful emotions that leave us disempowered and lost. But when you’re true to yourself it’s empowering and freeing.

BEST MOMENTS

“There's always a gap between what you have and what you want but also a gap between the thought and the action.”

“Being present is so incredible.”

“How do you switch from that head space where you're thinking to switch into your heart and feeling?”

“It’s hard to be true to yourself and when you’re not it can cause a lot of depression and anxiety.”

“When I separated myself from my life and started looking at it as if it was not me, I became my friend.”

Dawn is joined by mental health advocate Eden Gold in this episode of Wake Up To Real Love. Together they discuss normalising mental health struggles, and how to overcome issues and traumas by the law of conversion energy.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

We want to normalise all of the different forms of mental health struggles. Emotional and relationship struggles are all part of the human condition and instead of hiding them in the dark we need to bring them into the light.
When we talk about our issues and traumas, and when we do so they lose their power and their charge over us. But the law of conservation of energy says that energy is neither created nor destroyed, but can only be transferred or transformed.
We can’t just deal with pain by ourselves and keep it in. Eventually, it builds up enough and without the communication of our problems and releasing the pain it builds up and it will demand itself to be heard.
If you hold onto fear it’s this sense of the known and something that you feel you have the control to manage, but it’s a false sense of security.

BEST MOMENTS

“We can all relate to loss, grief and family hardships”

“I hid a lot of my pain and a lot of my insecurities, so from the outside, it would appear that everything was okay.”

“Where there is a lack of love there is a disconnect.”

“Instead of hiding mental health and pretending that it doesn’t exist, which is what keeps us in these hurt and stuck places, we need to bring it to light.”

Conscious love and relationship coach Chantal Landreville joins the show to discuss how to transform your relationship, grow and evolve your connection and build a strong foundation that will change your life.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Conscious love means taking responsibility, being aware and making the effort to live a life that’s in alignment with who you say you want to be.

A conscious relationship is transformational and helps you grow, evolve and have the awareness to work through things but transforming is not the same for everyone, we’re all from different backgrounds and have been raised in different ways so the way we heal and the baggage we have is all different. You have to mutually come together in a relationship to accept and respect.

A relationship is a threesome, it’s you, your partner and the relationship. Always ask yourself how will your actions service your relationship and when you do this, your perspective on how to go about your everyday life will change.

Learn to communicate what your needs and desires are before you end up being in a long-term relationship because that is how you will build a strong foundation of being open and honest. You need to hold each other accountable on a daily basis.

BEST MOMENTS

“A non-conscious relationship is very transactional.”

“We're all very, very different, but we're also alike.”

“Transforming is about adapting to our imperfections.”

“If you think your relationship is a transaction it’s going to fail.”

Dawn welcomes the founder of New Intention Health and Wellness, Nathan Kohlerman to the show. Together they discuss his incredible journey from pain to purpose and how unlocking creativity and authentic expression has helped his evolution.

KEY TAKEAWAYS ‘Creativity resides in the solar plexus’ Creativity lives in our expression, movement and emotions and in order for that energy to move up, it requires a level of creation and transmutation.

We've in a society where we're told what to do, rather than just being able to creatively expand ourselves and explore and learn as we do as children.

The journey is never over and It's never complete if you have the willingness and an insatiable hunger to learn.

Real love is about creating a space for people to share and to shift away from bonding through trauma. It’s about creating that safe and intentional space.

The more we speak and share our trauma, the easier it is to overcome. Sharing negative past experiences means it loses its energetic pull and we stop holding it inside. Sharing makes us vulnerable but empowers us to learn.

BEST MOMENTS

“As I've seen the evolution I've been able to unlock more of my creativity and my authentic expression.”

“It presents an opportunity for me to be a catalyst for her healing.”

“Everything that I've ever made from running my own business has gone immediately back into training and for healing for myself.”

“I’m now stepping into more of the metaphysical realm and into the transpersonal psychology realm.”

In part two of love, life and experiences with Dan Mackenzie we explore anthroposophy, finding your path and how to manage your most important relationship, the one with yourself.

KEY TAKEAWAYS Every movement has a shadow side, a sort of spiritual bypass. But bypassing love and only focusing on spirituality and self-development is actually a form of narcissism.

The most important relationship is with yourself, but it's not because of self-interest and narcissism, it's because of healing and self-development so that you can have healthier relationships and be a better parent and friend.

Love in its highest expression is honoring the freedom of others and it doesn’t so much matter about your spiritual belief, love is an emotion we can all share.

BEST MOMENTS

“There are many paths and many teachers.”

“Anthroposophy is my path and I incorporated non-violent communication.”

“I'm not a purist, but I do think we have to be discerning in our teachers, our paths and in our books.”

“Our systems are so unworkable that we're going to have to leave this planet and start somewhere else.”

Nina Aouilk is known as the Londons Life Coach, she is a survivor of abuse and an advocate for breaking the silence. She joins Dawn today to talk all about her own experiences of trauma and abuse and how she helps others in violent relationships and situations.

Dawn and Nina also talk about the difficulties of the world and society women and girls face today, motherhood and why you should always unapologetically be yourself.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Nina created the concept of ‘Losers lunch’ which is a room she hosts on clubhouse. The idea behind it is that it’s an accumulation of people across the world giving their own perception on a topic by people who have lost something.

All three of Nina’s children have had a unique impact on her but all three of them gave her a sense or purpose and a strength she didn’t have before becoming a mother.

Nina had a difficult childhood, she wasn’t loved as she should have been by her parents and endured neglect and abuse.

As an adult, Nina suffered serious abuse from her partner including death threats and attempts. Her youngest son spoke out at school and this led to Nina having the push to leave.

Leaving her abusive partner made Nina realise she had the strength and resilience to make the life she and her children deserved. Up until this point, it was as if Nina didn’t realise she had the choice to leave.

Nina has had to learn to use her voice, actions and mannerism to advocate for herself and ask for things. She spent so many years nurturing and looking after everyone else that she didn’t realise she had her own needs too.

There is no competition in trauma and grief. You can't compare peoples trauma. Peoples pain and suffering is their own.

BEST MOMENTS

“We’re all losers sometimes and we just have to admit to it to become better people”

“The day my daughter was born I felt this surge of love, this surge of purpose”

“It was not uncommon for a daughter to be treated as I was at that time”

“Abuse followed me like a bad penny and that mentality that I had of not deserving any better became my reality so much so I didn’t realise I had a choice”

"What you are doing by leaving is freeing yourself...it's an ongoing journey"

Dawn is joined by Vassil Karamanov who is a transformation coach and a conscious empath and lover of life. Together they discuss how to keep your sense of openness and acceptance of what is and remove the blocks that are stopping you from being high on life. Vassil shares details of his journey including how he has learned to truly forgive, found a way to quickly neutralize stressful thoughts and how he cured his back pain by rewiring his mind.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Everyone has a lower self and a higher self voice in their heads. It is possible to learn to listen to the higher self-voice. To shift from focusing on the one negative thing someone says to you and making that your truth to having a far more balanced view of who you are.

We all experience bad things in life, it is normal to experience pain at those times, but many of us fall into the trap of then continuing to live our lives in pain. Allowing that way of living to become our norm.

Forgiveness is hugely powerful. It is not about letting the other person off the hook. In fact, it is you that you are letting off the hook. You are saying goodbye to a lot of stress and pain. It benefits everyone.

With love there are a lot of testing periods. People change, so sometimes moving on is the most loving choice.

Emotional intelligence stops you from getting so angry that you let things escalate and cuss someone else out, get violent or take it out on others. But that does not mean you ignore the issue. Instead, you wait for the right time and talk through it.

BEST MOMENTS

“You can eliminate sadness and anger from most of your life and it greatly reduces stress.”

“Resentment is like drinking poison.”

“When you have a partnership, it should be an equal exchange of time, energy and effort.”

Writer, speaker and podcast host Dan Mackenzie joins the show to discuss his journey to finding love, success and happiness. Dawn and Dan discuss why as adults we must re-experience life over and over again, how to cultivate and create a habit and why we should all endeavour to savior the elixir of life.

KEY TAKEAWAYS People underestimate the change when having a child. There's no real way to qualify the expansion of love in your heart but you also feel more invested in loving the world, loving humanity and the fear you previously had seems small in micro and a macrocosmic way.

As adults, we have so many other responsibilities and in the busyness of life, we forget to be human and to focus on what inspires us. Life is something that has to be re-experienced over and over, you can't just experience life when you're a child and then work the rest of your life.

We all have some generational identification, but the most fascinating people are those that have their open opinions and endeavour to create and cultivate a habit. These people are likely more naturally gifted with this disposition and often savior the elixir of life.

Science itself is inherently ever-changing and there are scientific disciplines today, which may contradict something that was known to be true five years ago. It's a healthy disposition to look at the world in a way that we're constantly taking in new information.

BEST MOMENTS

“I try to experience the world from his point of view in a more poetic way to awaken an aspect of innocence within me.”

“I think the beauty of kids is that they're so in the present moment, they're reminders of just being here now.”

Dawn is joined by her Clubhouse co-facilitator, life coach and trauma therapist, Elsa Marley. Hear Elsa’s incredible journey from pain to purpose and the lessons she’s learned along the way. Discover how to overcome trauma, realize your true potential, and create an amazing life.

Trigger Warning: Some graphic content may trigger some listeners. Please contact a professional, like Elsa or Dawn, to get support and help.

In order to repurpose your pain and create a new identity, you must grieve, heal and release the past, and learn to feel worthy and deserving of love. It will help you live a more peaceful and purposeful life, and reach your full potential.

KEY TAKEAWAYS If you have experienced trauma, there is hope. Hope that you can not only survive but that you can create amazing lives and new experiences out of things that were really challenging and hard for you.

Everyone is focused so much on outside behavior. No one really asks what's actually happening internally and what you’re feeling emotionally.

Because of the power differentials between adults and children, there’s often no way for a child to speak out against an adult.

Often couples can be bonded together through trauma and to fill each other’s void, but If you have zero partnership, zero alignment and no purpose together, you’re not compatible and this can be an awakening to realize your true potential.

BEST MOMENTS

“A lot of women lose hope in the system.”

“I've always believed in God and I always had my imaginary friend.

“I just pretended like I had a friend who understood all my problems and we just talked about it.”

“I just felt like power came from me. This is not your time and God used my son to literally keep me alive.”

In this episode of Wake Up To Real Love, Dawn is joined by lightworker, coach and mindfulness practitioner Nataki Onyemachi. Together they discuss her spiritual journey from Ghana to America, how to manifest the life that you want, why you need to process your hidden emotions and past experiences and how you can turn self-healing into self-love.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

You have to consciously make the decision to get out of your own way and allow the universe to work its magic. In order to see the magic happen you need to be disciplined about letting go, be able to surrender, relax and allow the things you want in life to manifest. That takes courage.

As children, we don’t know how to integrate and process our emotions. Far too often children just hide their feelings and move on because there are just resilient and as they grow into

Everyone has emotions and past experiences that they know they need to heal because of some self-awakening in their lives as these are the things that are blocking them from achieving their best life.

For all of us, a large part of our healing journey, our growth, expansion and evolution requires that we go to those hidden parts of ourselves and that we have the courage to go there.

Disconnection from ourselves is always about survival, but it keeps you in a depressive state. We disconnect unconsciously so that we can move forward to find ourselves. It's a protective mechanism.

BEST MOMENTS

“I give a lot of love and gratitude to Ghana because it’s a huge part of my energy, growth and spiritual journey.”

“When we get in our own way, we're actually allowing our ego to come forward and push our buttons.”

“Events can trigger suppressed emotions that have been hidden inside of us from our childhood.”

“This is really my first time being so transparent with my healing journey.”

“I really go into those hidden dark shadows of myself and really heal the parts I had disconnected from.”

“Along with radical self-healing comes radical self-love.”

Dawn is joined by the founder of Go The Distance Consulting and the Miraculous Living Institute, best-selling author of The Miracle That Is Your Life, and expert coach and speaker, Wendy Darling. Join an insightful episode of the Wake Up To Real Love podcast as Dawn and Wendy discuss unlocking your natural skills, how to overcome old patterns, and how to ‘wave your magic wand’ to turn your dreams into reality and create the life and love you want.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Understanding that your skills are a gift and they are a natural part of who you are and part of what makes you special and unique is so important to living a high quality, productive and profitable life.

Many people don't take the time to examine what's going on inside of themselves and they end up going through life on autopilot. Often this means not living your own life and doing things according to what your parents or others think you should do and what’s been installed into you.

If you don't work on your mind you risk defaulting back into old patterns. Brain training is about strengthening your neuro-pathways and creating new ones of strengthening existing ones at a higher vibration.

BEST MOMENTS

“Women were not necessarily supporting each other as much and I wanted that to shift because I saw all of us having more of an opportunity if we came together and worked together.”

“How do people wake up to recognize what's more authentic for themselves?”

“Typically we only become reflective when something negative has happened that has us question what we really want.”

“Waving your magic wand and really getting into your heart and your heart's desires about how you want to be living and experiencing your life.”

In today’s episode of Wake Up To Real Love, Dawn is joined by the Co-founder of the Tantra Institute, Guy Shahar. They discuss authenticity, connection, intimacy and overcoming relationships. Discover how to build a sense of trust and safety with yourself, how to create supportive containers and the lessons you can learn from past relationships and the transition to being single again.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Once a relationship breaks down and the sex and intimacy stops, there is still the need for a supportive container for the children. Far too often people allow their emotions to run away with them because they don’t know how to process and deal with them.

You will keep attracting the same people in life over and over again until you learn the lesson about yourself and you can make the necessary changes to form successful and passionate relationships.

If you have a deep sense of trust, safety and reliance on somebody else you need to understand how you can be that for yourself first and explore the parts of yourself that can help you achieve independence.

BEST MOMENTS

“Breaking up with a partner is hugely challenging for most people as it’s a sudden sever. People don’t know how to transition and shift.”

“How can you create something different in a relationship if you don’t know what it is, how do you explore what's possible?”

“I learned that I wanted to be in partnership and in a committed partnership.”

“You've just spent your whole life practising, not connecting to your desire when it's not acceptable.”

Dawn welcomes founder, mompreneur and CEO of TLB Coaching, Tracy Borreson to the show to share and discuss building your personal brand. Learn the power of sharing your voice, how to connect and build connections with others and why you must focus on self-love first before loving anybody else.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Dancing is so powerful and it allows you to embrace yourself for who you are. It doesn't have to be to the benefit of anybody else, because if it benefits you, then you are going to show up in a different way and you will be a benefit to others.

We're not robots, we’re human and we need to have emotions to connect. People cannot connect with you when they don't have enough information to choose you. You have to display and express your personality and push yourself into the growth zone.

Branding is your life and is made up of your own persona and experiences and your experience help to expand your perspective.

You’re sharing your voice and building your brand for a reason and it’s a reason that’s good for humanity because keeping that inside of you is not serving anybody.

Love can simply be defined by self-love and the act of loving to be yourself. You cannot find true love in any other relationship until you find real love for yourself.

BEST MOMENTS

“When people get older they don't share as much of themselves and they become more isolated but you need to express your gifts, not necessarily for anybody else, but just for you.”

“Sometimes it's just a matter of accepting people for where they are.”

“People can add so much value to your life and you can choose what to think about them.”

“People put so much pressure on themselves.”

“I focus on brand voice and helping people to get their voice out and into the marketplace.”

In this episode of Wake Up To Real Love, Dawn is joined by strategic advisor for ethical brands and managing director of The Sustainable Economic Development group, Valentine Stockdale. They discuss How childhood experiences can impact adult life, overcoming ‘the shadow’ and self-limiting beliefs and why plant medicine can heal your past and create new neural pathways for your future.

KEY TAKEAWAYS Self-limiting beliefs are common for children that have experienced abuse and abandonment growing up in cruel environments and often the child continues to believe they’re limited and carry that into their adult life causing a range of subconscious patterns of negative behaviour that can be self-destructive.

Plant medicine allows your brain to create new neural pathways that give you clarity over past traumatic events giving you the ability to bypass them and understand the latent knowledge sitting in your mind inaccessible previously due to cognitive dissonance.

Childhood pain is a shadow which is a collection of trauma and parts of our personality that we have rejected. Your shadow is a suppressed part of your personality you must overcome and flush out in order to reclaim your body so that you can shine brighter and be a better influence on people.

Past experiences and trauma cause us to shut down and hide and we use them as protective mechanisms, not really expressing what's really going on with ourselves because we have to live up to some expectation of who other people think we should be.

BEST MOMENTS

“Their obsession takes them to the point where they just outperform everybody's expectations and it's incredible.

“You've got lots of conflicting views and opinions that will clash together and prevent you from seeing things clearly.”

“I wanted to normalise people's struggles because this is why we shut down.”

“You can be hurt by other people projecting onto you because they’re unable to manage their emotional space.”

In today’s episode of Wake Up To Real Love, Dawn is joined by the creator of Mindful Being, Raditia Lasry. Together they discuss learning how to express, reconnect and control your emotions. Discover how to explore your own creativity and create a life that you own with your own choices.

KEY TAKEAWAYS For many people, it's very difficult to express ourselves because we'd never learned how to express ourselves and how to feel. Emotions are secondary and we’re conditioned not to feel because of our inability to express emotions. We need to learn to give ourselves permission to actually reconnect with our emotions. Art, It's about expressing an aspect of yourself that may otherwise be hidden and suppressed. It's for your own exploration and your own creativity with no limitations. We all have an issue with letting go because we're holding onto so many things that society is telling us to. So if we can let go of what society is telling us, and we're just focusing on our immediate family and what works for us we can finally be ourselves. It’s important to learn how to control your emotions and discover that the only person you’re really accountable to and responsible for is yourself. Create your own life and make your own choices.

BEST MOMENTS

“I realised that when people feel like there is an issue, that’s more of a problem with them not being able to express their emotions.”

“There is an awful lot of unawareness that is subconsciously happening.”

“How we can express ourselves if we're not exposed to art such as music, painting and drawing?”

“We need to become more aware of our own conditioning.”

Art and the beauty of it is everywhere. Dawn is joined by a world-renowned artist famous for creating vibrant abstract paintings based on interconnectivity and spirituality, Heather Buechler. Discover how to use art to express your emotions and connect with your spirituality and learn how to focus on love and self-worth in today’s episode of the Wake Up To Real Love podcast.

KEY TAKEAWAYS Our earth is the biggest landscape for art in the world. There's art all around us in the beauty of life, it's interconnected with our spirituality, there’s a connection between art and our faith.

Too often we’re taught to suppress our emotions and we lack a healthy way to express our feelings. Art is so beautiful because it is expressive and you can express all manner of emotions from angst and anxiety to love and passion.

The more you open yourself up to creativity, the more familiar you are to the artist's mindset. Art can be the spiritual pathway to creativity and allow you to attach, unattach and grow, art helps you to feel centered and to complete your connection.

Buddhism as a philosophy of unattachment does no harm to others and is focused on practicing kindness, meditating and taking care of the planet and those around you. Meditation can take place on the canvas when the artistic flow takes over.

Focus on love and self-worth to attract better people in your life. Spend time developing your own self-love and break free from patterns that have caused previous bad relationships. Seek out supportive and equal relationships above all else and create a secure family environment filled with love.

BEST MOMENTS

“I cannot imagine life without art and the beauty of it everywhere.”

“I'm either trying to educate people or send light and love out into the universe.”

“It’s very important for people to be able to express angst and anxiety through art and creativity.”

“Reiki is a Japanese form of energy healing meaning love.”

“Allow your soul to express itself in whatever way it wants”

“By just doing something you'll be inspired to do something else

Dawn is joined by a healer, a mystic and a tantric priestess. Recently rebirthed Rainbow Starlight joins the show to share her incredible journey in realising her true self. Dawn and Rainbow discuss how to find your own voice and unlock your kundalini energy, how to overcome the darkness and why you must learn to accept yourself with love and compassion.

KEY TAKEAWAYS Our healing journey is to get to the place where we are at home within ourselves and to a place where we feel freedom and liberation all of the time.

You’ve got to find your own voice and prove everybody else wrong with what you can achieve, you’ve got to prove yourself wrong and overcome your own self-limiting beliefs and work hard to get your voice heard. Magic and miracles happen when we allow it to and when we believe in it.

It's essential for all of us as humans to work on getting to know ourselves. Before you can work on yourself you need to know who you are? Why are you? And what makes you tick?

Kundalini energy is a sleeping force inside of us all and when you're dancing, you're awakening its potential.

Most people are afraid to face their darkness because it can seem all-consuming or overwhelming but the night is darkest just before the dawn, but once you reach the light It's beyond what your mind can comprehend. The most important thing about healing is acceptance, we have to accept everything that we're going through and to give ourselves so much love and compassion to get through it.

We're all human and we all have things that we need to work on and when we realise that we don't have to put on a facade and a mask to be accepted we can really step into our power.

BEST MOMENTS

“I lived in fear. I was submissive. I didn't have a voice. I felt like I was never going to be free.”

“We are all meant to be queens and goddesses, we're not meant to be servants.”

“The Shakti is a divine feminine, she's the source of all things and the elixir of your life.”

“Your truth is your higher self, our angels, and our guides all communicating with us. You just have to learn to listen.”

What if every day you had the chance to experience more love and intimacy in your life. Dawn Rishárd is joined by Tobias Hofmeister, a community designer, hyper connector and serial entrepreneur. His current ventures focus on embodiment, spiritual entrepreneurship and community design.

KEY TAKEAWAYS Pain is not necessarily something to be avoided and in fact should be embraced if you want to attain a personal truth.

If a relationship isn’t working , breaking up sooner rather than later can be tremendously tough, but it could also be the best way to cause any more pain on every side of the relationship.

As a couple, your emotional and sexual demands will naturally fluctuate. Constantly “being there” for each other can be ultimately damaging.

Harnessing the energy and the know-how for being part of a harmonious couple, and the mindset that needs, can also be used in many other ways. There are very few single people that are very successful in business.

BEST MOMENTS “If it hurts, something is shifting.”

"I don’t really wanna move in, but I also didn’t wanna break up.”

“It doesn’t need to be harmonious all the time because I mean it’s actually part of the journey.”

“When we look at our world, I mean everything is hyper sexualised, but equally it’s totally taboo.”

Dawn is joined by the Founder of MenSpeak. media acclaimed ‘Man Whisperer’ and best selling author, Kenny Mammarella-D'Cruz. They discuss the need to break down so that you can break through, overcoming survival mode and how to find a loving relationship.

KEY TAKEAWAYS Society has taught us to hover above all of our feelings and to just survive them. But in order to grow, you need to seize the opportunities in front of you and embrace your feelings because holding that tension in and constantly being in survival mode is not living a free, loving, available and connected life.

Men are afraid of their own breakdowns because they show vulnerability and that they’re falling apart. It goes against all grains of being strong and powerful. But you need to break down before you can breakthrough and realise that men can collaborate rather than just compete.

A loving relationship is finding the space between you for who you truly are. So you can exist in your power rather than handing your life over to other people for their approval and acceptance and often that’s whoever they want you to be until they get bored and abandoned.

When holding anger and rage inside of you it can become very deconstructive and you end up disconnected from your body, emotions and source. So as a result you end up feeling lost, confused and all alone because ultimately we don't understand ourselves.

BEST MOMENTS “Survival mode is just surviving. There's no space for life in survival.”

“My mind would be so busy that I’d become disconnected from the outside world.”

“What could be sexier than authenticity? I know where you are, you know where I am and we can meet intimately at our boundaries.”

“We are conditioned through our life experiences and have fears, insecurities and doubts.”

“The connection with yourself is key.”

The most important relationship you'll ever have is the one that you have with yourself. Dawn welcomes personal growth and self-empowerment expert, Brain Truskowski to show to discuss relationships, energy and our egos. Learn how to measure your relationships by your own metrics, how to embrace wild attraction and why when we break free of our conditioning we can fund the answers to love ourselves.

KEY TAKEAWAYS It’s important to understand that you don't need to meet some external metric of what society needs you to be in a relationship, career, vocation or personal life. If you have the right spirit, you will be provided with whatever money and resources you need, when you need it.

You have to have faith and trust that the things happening in your life are happening that way for a reason and it's only your ego and your mind separating from that agenda that creates something.

Our ego's attachment to our timeline creates our suffering, so if we form a romantic relationship and that fails it is our ego that is the source of the pain. But there is a plausible karmic component of past life experiences that can affect our relationships.

Wild attraction is about the spiritual, energetic and more esoteric components of attraction and why people get there. Falling in love is being attracted to a person on an unintentional, psychic subconscious level that is fitting the lock to your key.

Every person that comes into your life is there to teach you something and it's usually a reflection of where you're not loving and accepting yourself or where you're not being loving and accepting of another.

BEST MOMENTS “We're conditioned to live in the world in one way and now, people are waking up to recognise that we can look for answers by ourselves.”

“We need to control our ego and manipulate it on a micro-level.”

“Play out karma and have experiences to grow. Life is about trying to find a balance and have experiences.

“We all have our own mission.”

“You have to face yourself so that you can enter into relationships and have these beautiful connections where you can truly be yourself.”

By focusing on yourself and by self-examining your experiences you will awaken positive relationships. In today’s episode, Dawn is joined by relationship expert and CRC of Awakening Relationships with over 20 years of experience in training and self-development, Rose Viggiano. Discover how to improve your relationships, better connect with others and respond rather than react in this insightful episode.

KEY TAKEAWAYS When you’re not showing up at your best you can examine and explore the area of your life that are causing a negative and hurtful impact on your relationships.

If you don’t take time to focus on yourself, your energy will come out negatively in your relationships. What you need to do is focus on love and self-examine where you’ve helped relationships positively in the past.

If you analyze the part you play in the breakdown of your relationships you can identify the things you did or didn’t say that had a harmful impact and can learn a lot by looking within yourself.

It’s important to feel comfortable with yourself and your actions and by coming into alignment with who you say you want to be can help awaken positive relationships, and you will be able to improve how you connect with others, learn how to respond rather than react and become a grounded and confident individual.

BEST MOMENTS “You do take a moment to look at what part you played in a relationship breaking down.”

‘You're either doing or saying things or behaving in ways that are helpful to the relationship or are harmful. It's one or the other.”

“Are you simply reacting to what other people are doing or are you confident and grounded in yourself, stepping forward by responding rather than reacting?”

We're all creators, we're all manifestors and we all have the power within us. Today, Ellen Sirena joins the show and she is on a mission to activate Lightworkers and to unleash their soul's purpose and natural money-making gifts to the world to create luscious wealth and wellbeing. Listen in to discover how to shift your energy, manifest what you desire and find peace and love in all that you do.

KEY TAKEAWAYS Painting is not about resistance or perfectionism, it's a medicinal tool to heal and release anything that doesn't serve you. Sometimes It might be healing relationships or dealing with issues around money, abundance or prosperity. Painting and creativity can help you to overcome old resentments and keep you moving forward.

When you're painting you go into an altered state of consciousness and you let go, there’s no in-depth thinking or analysing, it's just energy. You're letting it go and flow out of your body, through the paint, through that energy and purifying your system in an incredibly multi-dimensional way.

What you think is what you can create and manifest. Use your thoughts and your emotions to focus on abundance, prosperity, love, wellbeing and gratitude and as a result, you will feel beautiful and joyful emotions that are in alignment with the truth of who you really are.

We're always creating and our thoughts and emotions are very powerful. If you don't like something in your life you have to change your thoughts, release your energy and your emotions to the external world and it will respond with a shift and a change in a beautiful way.

BEST MOMENTS

“When you focus on your wellbeing all of the anger, resentment, fear or pain is replaced by this incredible peace, love and flow.”

“Your body is a creation itself.”

“We're all creators, we're all manifestors we all have the power within us”

“You can cultivate your emotions and feelings into what you desire.”

In today’s episode of Wake up to Real Love, founder and CEO of purpose work consulting and coaching Amanda Aikulola joins the show to share her incredible story. Learn of her inspiring personal story and how to overcome pain, anxiety and take back control of your life.

KEY TAKEAWAYS You’re not going to fix yourself and you're going to have to live with this for the rest of your life so a supportive community can really help to get you through the tough moments. Especially when you had to travel for surgeries.

When you’re really struggling ask yourself ‘what do I want my voice to do?’ And ‘what kind of example am I setting for my loved ones?’ When you find yourself in a difficult circumstance aim to remain focused on what you can control because when you’re out of control it's easy to feel lost.

You have to control the anxiety that comes with the pain. When you’re able to overcome the pain and realise that it doesn’t control you you’re able to control it and remove it because suffering is a choice.

If you’re able to embrace and accept what you have, you’ll be able to create something beautiful. You cannot submit to the pain and struggles because you only have one life to live.

Most people don't have a relationship with their emotions and that's where people get stuck, suffer and feel like they can't live.

BEST MOMENTS

“What about all the other people out there that are going through this too?”

“I created an army of advocates and improved the patient experience in the U.S”

“I was obsessing about everything I couldn't control because I was so out of control”

“Suffering is a choice. Pain is inevitable, but suffering is a choice.”

“You only have one life so you have to rock it out and do what you’ve got to do.”

What if every day you had the chance to experience more love and intimacy in your life. Dawn Rishárd is joined by transformational relationship mentor and author Dr. Gary Salyer in today’s episode of Wake Up To Real Love. Together they discuss how to self-evaluate and overcome childhood experiences to create better relationships, how to create love for yourself first and why identifying attachment patterns is essential to finding a healthy relationship.

KEY TAKEAWAYS An in-depth self-evaluation of your childhood will help you figure out how to create better relationships in your life. When you carry past experiences into new relationships it can create a host of patterns that don’t feel like love for your partner.

A relationship with love should be built on a foundation of Inter-dependence, not co-dependence or counter dependence is the foundation for a good relationship. Inter-dependence empowers you and your partner with choices and allows you to be fully human.

Limiting beliefs and deep feelings run our attachment patterns. If you’re feeling unwelcome and unprotected in your relationship you need to shift that energy to feelings of joy.

If you’re feeling unworthy and disempowered in your relationship you’re in a dysfunctional path. You can re-programme your brain and relationships to be filled with feelings of love and joy.

The most important relationship you'll ever have is the one you have with yourself because this is where the work starts so that you can create and build an intimate partnership with your loved one, with your children and with your family unit.

BEST MOMENTS

"This is a road map how I can have a home port in my heart for myself and for someone else."

"This is how I can create a secure attachment for myself."

“People that feel empowered, don't pick disempowering people.”

“When there's a deep abiding attachment, there's an essence that can't be duplicated.”

Cynthia gives us the secret of how to live with an open mind as well as heart, and to appreciate the diversity of this modern world.

Hear how she rose up from the ashes of major tragedy and loss in her life, dealt with the grief, and then redefined her life and business by “figuring it out” despite the emotional heartache. A two time NYC marathoner (with a personal best of 3:33!!), she learned how to "slow down" while running, conquer her fears and doubts, express joy and fun (like wearing glittery eyeshadow and metallic tattoos during her marathons), and use collaboration and community to build her most Powerful Self!

Miguel Dean is a writer, blogger, poet, and author of Bring Him Home - A Twin Flame Love Story. He shares his struggles with feeling abandoned and alone, as a result of his mother’s death when he was a baby, and how he often looked to his intimate partners to fill the holes that he felt within himself. By facing his own insecurities and fears, and becoming more vulnerable, Miguel went on a journey to recover the lost aspects of both his feminine and masculine nature. He shows us the importance of finding the balance and Union of Masculine and Feminine within ourselves and within our partnerships to create more authentic and meaningful love, sex, and intimacy.

Join the 1st of 3 conversations with Rod Gordon and his fiancee Martina Hughes, who exemplify healthy and loving intimate relationships. Rod has discovered what it means to be a “Whole Man,” amidst the conflicting paradigms of “masculinity.” In order to magnify love and create safety and protection for your partner and family, men need to Be “Trustable,” and lead by example. Using physicality, your breath, awareness of subtle energies, and curiosity about your inner world are the keys to transformational and more conscious relationships. Rod continually challenges himself and the men and women he teaches to ask the questions,”What serves the highest love?” and “How can I show up as my best possible self?” in order to become a more fully authentic and embodied man/woman. Rod and Martina teach and work together at Tantric Blossoming, Australia’s largest tantric community founded by Martina in 2005.

Tyson Adams is a growth-oriented, modern day Renaissance man: an entrepreneur, web and marketing genius, men’s group leader, and rock-climbing/surfing aficionado. Through his history of disconnected relationships, his decade long spiritual journey in Southeast Asia, and facing his own emotional shadows, Tyson has developed a somatic process and philosophy for men to overcome their repressed emotions as a result of misdirected sexuality, and pornography consumption.

Cathy Garner, “The Relationship Artist” and Coach, created the “Relation-Ship” portrait, story, and Tedx talk to help people navigate and transform their intimate relationship. By avoiding relationship “icebergs,” she teaches us the communication skills and emotional practices that anchor our relationship and prove to our partner that “I Am Here for You.” Her visionary work helps us move away from being a victim of fairytale “fate” to creating the relationship of our dreams by “BE-ing the One,” rather than “finding The One.” She challenges us to define our visions and purpose, create the life that we want to live, and show up authentically and vulnerably for ourselves first, encourage our partner to do the same, and sail to our “happily ever island” together. Find Cathy Garner and/or The Relationship Artist on FB. Look for her new “Time to Love Again” program soon.

Tim knows what it’s like 1st hand to make the most of every day because he lives like each one is his last. Tim, diagnosed at a young age with Cystic Fibrosis, was not expected to live past age 17, but at the ripe “old age” of 48, he makes the most of his precious life by laughing, connecting with nature, and appreciating his wife, son, family, and friends.

Tim writes, speaks, blogs, and podcasts to help others overcome their struggles and find hope for an Amazing day Today, and every day, by living the motto “Yours Cup Half Full.”

Mindful Mojo - How Brett Avelin, Mindfulness Teacher and Facilitator for the past 19 years, pieced together Eastern and Western philosophies and learned the Mystery of what it means to Be Alive and to find True Acceptance of The All. He used meditation, yoga, and mindfulness teachings and practices to show him aspects of himself that he didn’t recognize and process them in ways, that brought deep meaning and understanding. He shares how he learned to “Unfold” all of the layers (including with humor) so he can show up fully “Present” with himself, his practice, his wife, his sexuality, and every day in the world, the Unknown inside of him waiting to be rediscovered. He learned the greatest lesson of what it means to Truly Love and Accept Someone, starting with himself.

You can find Brett Avelin at mistermindfulmojo.com (website being redesigned) and on his new podcast called Mindful Mojo

Shawn Knight claims he is a “simple man” who fell into the modern trap of believing in the false God, his penis. He tried to live up to society’s standards of the conqueror: his ego playing the game to aggressively compete for women’s attention and selfishly seek only “the release,” rather than the connection. Witness how Shawn overcame his sense of unworthiness, challenged his mindset, affectionately called Coyote, and asked 3 important questions, to shift his perspective. Discover how Shawn learned to become more mindful in the world, and in his partner’s bed, to experience a more Divine love that constantly flows and cannot be constrained.

To find out more about Shawn, please contact him through his Facebook page under his name.
