Most of our personal conflicts and greater social problems arise out of fear.
In this podcast, I discuss the two ultimate, yet polarized, human emotions: one is love and the other is fear. Love is our birthright and our natural state of wholeness, peace and harmony where vitality continually flows.
The second emotion, fear, exists on the opposite side of the emotion spectrum. Fear obscures our true life, seeking to avoid, protect and limit rather than allowing us to extend and grow.
Discover some ancient words of wisdom that remain timeless and telling for us today. Then expect some guidance on how to step beyond fear and pass through to the love and life within that longs to wake us up to something better, brighter and freer.
In this podcast, I also offer a special gift that should make you smile. Find out how you can get a free copy of my Art of Happiness book on Values by writing Maura@Maura4u and referencing this podcast.

He was told that t [...]

Aaaaa, the meaning of life. Gosh, is this a popular question, or what? In my opinion, it is THE question of today’s era. Who isn’t intrigued by this question? Who hasn’t struggled to figure out his or her true purpose?
Could you sum it up in 100 words? What if someone offered you $10,000 for your best description?
What if there are no meanings to life, except those we choose? As new-age gurus assert, “It’s all made up, anyway!” Or, as religious doctrines proclaim, “Follow God’s will for you. This is the true meaning of life.”
This is the topic of today’s show, hopefully it will help you on your path. Also, I suggest you check out Wayne Dyer’s videos on this subject at fredericbye.com/dyer. Pay attention at the 4:30 mins mark, as he talks about the transition he made from a guaranteed position as a professor to following what he believed was his life’s purpose.

We all want to be happy, but what if that desire for happiness makes us afraid? Often, we focus on the “cost” of change rather than the ultimate benefits we hope to enjoy.
The cost of happiness can show up in a variety of ways. Each one of them reveals itself via a private nudge, especially when we’re paying attention to life cues.
Listen as I share three of my own stories about confronting the cost of happiness: 1) facing a type of self-incarceration so I could adjust for future freedom; 2) acknowledging a life phase was over and shedding old things to prepare for a new, purposeful life chapter; and 3) confronting a private “aha!” moment and choosing to drop childish thinking so I could move into greater realms of authenticity and emotional adulthood.
Are you ready to pay the cost for experiencing greater happiness? This podcast will help challenge and inspire you to pay in – and expect to gain big benefits in the end.

So many times in life we would like to try something new.
But are afraid to try because of the criticism we might receive from others because of our change.
Over time we have been brainwashed into believing other people’s opinions and think they hold more weight then our own feelings.
If you want to break old habits you must not be controlled by outside people.
You must have inner control!

In this week’s episode, Max talks about how we can’t be so concerned about appearances that we are afraid to take risks.
Or as he likes to say: “In the Olympics they don’t award style points.
He talks about how he is more able to take chances because he does not think much about how he’s going to look to those around him.
He also shares two stories about how he wasn’t embarrassed when most people would have been. (He also mentions that being blind makes it easier because he does not see or feel people staring at him!).
This is a fun one!

In the US, our body politic is suffering from a sickness. Political polarization has become so extreme it has spawned violence against and by politicians.
A new syndrome, “post-election stress disorder”, is recognized by psychologists.
Instead of trying to lower the temperature, the media, politicians, and political action committees (PACs) stoke the angry passion of extremism.
Social media has contributed to this culture of outrage.
It is polluted by the rantings of bigots, trolls, and terrorists. Fear-mongering politicians use it to widen social, economic, and ideological divisions.
Remember The Golden Rule, the credo that reminds us to do unto others as we would have them to do unto us?
Many of us agree that The Golden Rule sounds great in theory.
Over time, however, we discover that people around us don’t always abide by it. Perhaps we don’t abide by it, either.
My previous podcast on Respect feeds right into this latest subject, delving into the nebulous and often challenging arena known as interpersonal relationships.
Within this current podcast, I share how I’ve endeavored to employ The Golden Rule on personal and professional fronts, and offer a final tale that might greatly surprise you!

The medical clairvoyant Edgar Cayce (1877-1945) left the world a wealth of intuiitive readings on everything from health and spirituality to psychology and past lives.

You might not be dealing with anger, but you could easily find yourself in the negative emotional zone known as fear.
Fear is the opposite of peace; it’s the antithesis of love.
By its very nature, fear separates us from the awareness of peace, security, happiness and so many more positive, life-affirming emotions.
In this latest podcast, I share a personal story from my background.
Busting the myth of the “perfect childhood,” I talk about a weakness in my own household that left me feeling fearful.
That fear caused me to self-protect and create my own wall of emotional isolation.
Ultimately, those suppressed feelings found their outlet in a dramatic moment of anger, one that needed to be addressed in a helpful rather than harmful way.
Come along with me on my journey.
I convey the surprising role of love in dissipating negative emotions and paving a path to the awareness of love, grace and peace.

Hey guys! Today, the show is inspired by a conversation I had with Mark Thurston on his latest book, Discovering Your life’s purpose.
Mark’s work is based on Edgar Cayce’s work, he basically re-edited the book.
In the book, he talks about trusting that God will give you the increase when you follow your life’s mission.
Let’s face it, the reason most of us don’t go after what we really want is the fear of lacking money - the rent, the mortgage, the kids, our lifestyle…
Mark has some fascinating words on this subject.

Are you a person of integrity?
In this latest podcast, I take up the definitions of integrity. Not only do they include honesty and moral uprightness, but definitions for integrity speak to a person’s state of being “whole” or undivided.
There are many ways in which our sense of being “whole” or “undivided” impacts our thoughts and intentions about ourselves and others. In particular, when we see ourselves as divided rather than part of the whole of society, we can lose our peace and compromise the expression of our higher self.
Listen in as I share a few anecdotes and hear an apt, famous quote on the topic. Then, expect to be challenged to check into your own relationship with integrity.
May you find your vision expanding, your consciousness growing and your ability to become a person of integrated character adding to your happiness and the betterment of the world.
Finally, listen to Ally, a university student from Cape Cod, Massach [...]
Goal setting is the true secret to success in any area of life.
But although setting a goal may seem simple, achieving it is usually another question altogether.
If you’re looking to change your life for the better, this is your show!
This is a special episode!
We have been hearing a lot online and offline about the Law of Attraction.
Even Oprah Winfrey is a believer in it.
However, many people want to believe but just can’t seem to get it to work or don’t know how to work. Well I’m here to show you how to!
I recorded this latest podcast at a park rather than from my familiar, sound-controlled closet. The change-up of venues was prompted by yet another day marked by upsetting “news” reports.
Such ever-escalating, emotionally charged reports are fostering fear and division not only among the U.S. populace; they’re threatening the equilibrium of people in several Western European countries, too.
The intoxicating and reality-shifting power of hyper-sensationalized news had prompted me to reclaim my reality and source. I found it anew while enjoying nature and quietude, even as I’d invited listeners to do the same.
In this podcast, hear me share a vivid childhood impression of “reality.” Next, listen as I convey some recent impressions of how people interact in more natural, everyday settings when there is no “news” to narrate the dialogue or to artfully frame the supposed problems.
If you’ve felt challenged by negative reports from external n [...]

A book of liberation and ecstasy, The E-Word lucidly explains how the ego is created, how it thinks, and how its limited mind-set can be expanded—not inflated—into a joyous transpersonal perspective that eradicates feelings of isolation, fear, and insecurity in your life.
Through stories, practices, and a masterful detangling of Maslow’s hierarchy of needs, the Matrix, and quantum physics, The E-Word strips the ego bare and liberates the soul in highly entertaining, relatable ways, revealing how even self-improvement techniques can chase away the very fulfillment and wisdom we seek. Montana further reveals how the ego co-opts spirituality, dangling enlightenment in front of us as a prize.
Stuffed with electrifying insights and transformative meditations and exercises, The E-Word is the ultimate how-to guide for discovering the “real you” within.

Today we chat novels!
We talk to JF Dubeau who just published his debut novel with Inkshares!
We chat about some of the myths about getting publushed, we talk money, we talk about the creative process, the hurdles and lucky breaks he got, and more!
Here is what his novel is about:
The village of Saint-Ferdinand has all the trappings of a quiet life: farmhouses stretching from one main street, a small police precinct, a few diners and cafés, and a grocery store. Though if an out-of-towner stopped in, they would notice one unusual thing―a cemetery far too large and much too full for such a small town, lined with the victims of the Saint-Ferdinand Killer, who has eluded police for nearly two decades. It’s not until after Inspector Stephen Crowley finally catches the killer that the town discovers even darker forces are at play.
When a dark spirit reveals itself to Venus McKenzie, one of Saint-Ferdinand’s teenage residents, she learns that th [...]
