Have you ever felt a tug at your soul, a whisper urging you to seek out your innermost beauty and truth? Tara Marino, the visionary behind Elegant Femme, joins me for a soul-stirring conversation that promises to fan the flames of your personal spark. Together, we delve into the transformative power of 'being' rather than 'doing,' and how embracing our daily rituals—be they as simple as lighting a candle or feeling the sun's warmth—can lead us to a life of alignment and profound self-discovery. We marvel at the possibility that the connections we make may not be by chance, but rather, chosen by our souls for reasons that unravel beautifully over time.
In an emotional heart-to-heart, Tara shares her deeply personal story of loss and rebirth, a narrative that gave life to the FEM types program, offering women a blueprint for balancing the diverse facets of their femininity. As we navigate the delicate interplay between motherhood, identity, and personal evolution, we uncover the cathartic power of journaling and the serendipitous birth of a coaching method through the art of lingerie design.

As we wrap up, Tara and I reflect on the beauty of expressing our unique essence every single day.

Have you ever wondered what it feels like to truly connect with the joy and tranquility of life, even amidst the chaos? Our latest conversation with Oren Jay Sofer, a renowned teacher of Buddhist meditation and communication, unveils a path to such fulfillment. Oren opens up about the sparks that light up his life—from the love he shares with his family to the satisfaction he receives from empowering others through his teachings. He imparts the profound realization that we all carry the potential to become beacons for each other, especially in times of crisis, and that our interactions can have lasting, positive effects on the world around us.
In our fast-paced world, it's easy to lose sight of the moments that truly matter. This episode explores the importance of pausing the hustle, likening the practice of meditation to allowing the sediment in apple cider to settle for a clearer, more refined juice. Orin and I discuss the challenges our minds face with the allure of technology and the bombardment of consumerist promises. Yet, through the simple act of slowing down, we open ourselves to deeper insight, nourishment, and the ability to concentrate on what's truly important—transforming the way we engage with life and unlocking our fullest human potential.
Contemplative practices, as Oren reveals, are more than just exercises in mindfulness; they are tools for building resilience and compassion in the face of life's adversities. We cover ground on the 26 traits that can serve as pillars for both personal and societal transformation, as outlined in Oren's latest book. Perhaps most poignant is our discussion on forgiveness—a journey that goes beyond pardoning others to a process of healing ourselves and finding peace with our past. Join us for an intimate and heartfelt exploration of how mindfulness and self-compassion can serve as guiding lights in our lives, offering us solace and strength when we need it most.

Have you ever considered the profound impact of a secure marriage on a person's life? If not, it's time to listen in on our conversation with our guest, Janani, as she traverses the poignant topics of mental health, spirituality and the strength of lifelong learning. Janani's enlightening journey and insights, sparked by her mother's thought-provoking question about the greatest gift we can pass onto our children, will surely inspire you to embrace your authentic self.
As we turn the page to the second chapter of this episode, we unpack the personal journey of Janani. After graduating from college, she found herself grappling with depression and a challenging relationship, experiences that spurred her to create 'The Indian Standard', a mental health-focused magazine for South Asians. The magazine shines a light on South Asians as a community and their shared experiences and helping to bridge the gap between their cultural emphasis on education and arts, and the mental health struggles that often go unspoken.
Janani shares her belief in the importance of self-care, especially amidst a mental health epidemic. She beautifully conveys that learning is ageless and encourages everyone to carve out a corner for self-love. Our conversation goes on to underscore the magazine's message of duty and self-discovery, a universal mantra applicable to all, irrespective of cultural boundaries. It's a reminder to all of us that positivity and inspiration, much like our journey with Janani can light up the darkest paths. So, sit back, tune in, and let's ignite that spark together.=

In this eye-opening episode, I plunge into the intricate world of human design alongside expert Holly Maree. Human design is a fascinating blend of astrology, the chakra system, Kabbalah, biomechanics, and epigenetics. It gives each of us a unique blueprint that defines how our energy is designed to operate, and Holly clarifies how the precise moment and location of our birth can impact this.
As we chat, we explore the five energy types in human design - manifestors, generators, manifesting generators, projectors, and reflectors. We discuss how identifying your type can provide profound insights about yourself. I share my own experience as a manifesting generator and the journey of self-discovery that it has led me on.
Holly opens up about her specialized work with manifestors, guiding them towards an understanding of their unique energetic patterns. She also equips us with resources for people of all energy types to dive deeper into their human design.
Holly’s Bio:

Today’s podcast is a gathering of three wise women, and yes I count myself as one of them. Two of my previous guests and I gathered in conversation to share our thoughts about the importance of connection.
Elen Sentier is a life and leadership coach who is definitely an out of the box thinker. She started as a dance and theatre major in university, spent 20 years in corporate finance and software design in the UK Ministry of Defense and then has spent 30 plus years as a transpersonal psychotherapist and coach. All of that and she is a witch, really and truly born into a family with a long lineage of witches.
Previously interviewed in Season 3 Episode #99
Dr. Lotte Valentin is a Physician, evidential psychic medium, speaker and author of Med School After Menopause. After two near death experiences and over 6 years dealing with unexplained illnesses, Dr. Lotte was guided to attend medical school in her 50’s.
Previously interviewed in Season 2 Episode #83
These two women bring heart, experience, magic and more to the people whom they guide. In fact we go into how everyone needs a guide, mentor or teacher – no matter how skilled you are at your craft. Connecting – with another human in this case – is what eases our way in life, assists us in becoming our authentic self and sets us on the right track if we veer off course.
We continue to discuss the importance of connection and the importance of connecting with people, plants, animals, particularly as we rise from the depression and isolation that many feel after three years dealing with the pandemic.
Dr. Lotte talks about ancestral healing, Elen speaks to how everyone is magic and we all have a mission on earth and how vital connections are to our existence.
I know you will love listening as much as we loved sharing.

Who is this chick? That is how Laurie Rivers starts her bio page on her website. I love it. Just reading that Ignites my Spark - and in this episode the stars have aligned to light your sparks as well.
My guest today, Laurie Rivers went from a career as a political consultant to astrologer, guide and coach. Laurie has over 3 decades of professional astrological consultative experience enhanced by certifications in strength based facilitation models, business and life coaching.
Her approach to astrology doesn't throw out traditional astrological interpretations, it recognizes that our society and culture evolves and grows. Laurie recognizes that we all operate from a range of emotional and conscious states of mind, and she helps people understand their own individual rhythm and flow with life.
Laurie's passion is to assist us in our lives where we are today - giving real applications to what is "written in the stars" via our natal chart or for those of us over 45, our progress chart. Surely we are not the same in mid life as we were in our teens and twenties. Laurie shares that astrology is reflective of all that is - and her goal is to help us reach our greatest potential - the one that is indeed written in the stars.
Laurie has graciously offered my listeners a 20% discount on a reading with her.

You do realize that your voice matters - right? If you don't, then you will after listening to this episode with Intuitive Public Speaking and Leadership Coach Lauri Smith. Even if you do not consider yourself a leader, or a public speaker, Lauri shares valuable information to help you in all of life's communications.
Lauri helps visionaries on a soul-driven mission to stand in their power, speak their truth and Lead. Lauri is the CVO (Caring Visionary Officer) of Voice Matters and the author of Your Voice Matters: A Guide to Speaking Soulfully When It Counts. Her mission is to call forth more open-hearted leaders so they can do their part to change the world with authenticity, creativity and courage. She envisions a world in which everyone shares the vibration of their soul’s purpose with the world through their voices and together, we reach global harmony. What I like to call Igniting Your Spark so we can all shine together.
In our conversation Lauri shares three tips to help us speak in an authentic way. Intend, Align and Invite. When you enter any situation in which you are called upon to speak, by setting your Intention for what you want the crowd to feel after you have spoken, Align your body, breath and soul with that intention and Invite the energy underneath the words into the room, your WORDS will matter and have an impact on others.
You do not need to be a self-professed leader, or speak on a public stage to receive value from Lauri's advice. Whether you are in a networking group, a women's or men's circle or just have to introduce yourself to others, you will gain valuable wisdom. For instance, if you have 60 seconds to tell others about you - give them an appetizer and let them come to you for the full meal.
Wonderful snippets for all of us to learn how to use our voice, because all of us have something to share with the world and we CAN all share effectively.
Shine on!

Today on the podcast Steven Twohig joins me to talk about Shadow work. I’m a self professed joy seeker, and tend to not go into my shadows. This was eye opening for me. Steven shares what exactly shadow work is and how we all suffer from some type of trauma that creates any suffering we might have in this life time. Everyone has trauma and it starts when we are born and come out into the bright lights of the world after leaving the nurturing environment of the womb.
Steven suffered unbelievable trauma at the age of 3, something that has informed his entire life and led him to do his own shadow work and now help others move through their own shadows to release perhaps decades of suffering. This episode today may assist you in looking at your own trauma, your own shadows and hopefully give you the impetus to break through and heal your life.
Steven is the Founder of Mastering Change and is currently studying the impact of shadow work on psychedelic integration. He says you do not need to work with plant medicine to unleash your trauma, however it does facilitate the process.
Steven is an international speaker and worked for and studied under the world’s leading business and life strategist, Tony Robbins. His shadow ceremonies are available for anyone looking to connect directly with their shadow and recode their mind to make lasting change for a more joyful, truthful life.
Shadow work is the process of identifying unwanted coding that keeps you from living and experiencing the life you strive to attain. By rewriting the code that drives your experience, **YOU REGAIN YOUR AGENCY. YOU REGAIN YOUR POWER.
Favorite quotes from the episode:**We all have genius with in, what gets in the way is the why, so in shadow work we go into the part you don’t want to look at.
We do shadow work because we are just living at the surface, you are not experiencing the depth of who you are.
If you don’t own your shadows you will be owned by your shadows
People are miserable underneath the bandaid
Thanks for listening and I hope you will share, like and comment if you are enjoying the podcast. Let's come out of the shadows and into the light.
Shine on!

Jack Ji is my guest on the podcast today and his goal in life is to help us all find our soul purpose. Jack is a Destiny Shaman and utilizes Vedic Astrology and a simple deck of playing cards to determine each person’s unique destiny.
Jack Ji was a former employee of Southwest Airlines when several events led him to change his life trajectory. He heard voices that told him to move over while he was driving, in order to avoid an accident. The first time he didn’t listen, but the second time he did and his life changed when he started listening to his intuition.
Jack shares how every year we should think of our own birthday as New Year’s Day – when the cycle of our life repeats itself. Every 52 days we enter a different cycle and Jack shares what each of these 52 day segments mean. For instance one of the 52 day cycles is when our intuition is highest, one is when we will make great friends, one is best for work, manifesting and more.
Jack Ji shows people where they are in their exact cycle of life so that they can get the most out of life. He also tells us that we have one or two pinnacle years in our lifetime, which are years where we can accomplish almost anything. By knowing these years in advance, we can take full advantage of our year and achieve amazing things.
We discuss aura photography and how this determines what is out of balance in our lives. Certain chakras that may be compromised can be healed with sound and light therapy which is another modality in Jack’s toolkit.
Lastly we go into a new healing technology that Jack Ji has received certification in. It is Firefly Light Therapy, the most powerful light therapy developed. Firefly Light Therapy™ is the latest in multi-spectrum LED light therapy for pain, neurological disorders, and pathogen issues
By putting these lights directly on the body, intense healing occurs. Jack explains the technology a bit and I had the opportunity to experience this healing directly. I have more energy, am sleeping better and am in the process of healing my gut issues. It is incredible, but is only available in person. Wherever you are located you can search for Firefly Light Therapy and find your own practitioner.
Remember though Jack does virtual Destiny Card Readings and more.
Shine on and thanks for tuning in as always. Please share, rate and comment so more people can be inspired to Shine their own light.

After struggling with food allergies and stomach pains with no solutions, Chef Whitney decided to learn how to heal herself with food. She graduated from The Natural Gourmet Institute in NYC and believes the healthiest meal you can eat is the one you make at home.

Whitney talks about the process of how food gets from the farm to our table and how important it is to prepare our food carefully and with JOY.
Chef Whitney also reminds us that we should let go of food stress, do the best we can with our circumstances and shares that eating is a transfer of energy between our energetic being and the food we eat.

Reinvention - something we deal with either by choice or circumstance. Is it good, is it bad? Is it challenging? Today my guest is Wendy Battles, the host of Reinvention Rebels Podcast and super cool woman.
Wendy's goal is to share stories of women who have STOPPED apologizing for having big dreams and STARTED boldly pursuing them. She aims to help us spark new possibilities for our own life, moving us closer to our dreams and desires.
Cybersecurity Awareness expert at Yale University by day, Wendy pursues her passion for celebrating and elevating midlife and older women, by night.
Wendy is a reinvention rebel herself - and if you reach a certain age - most of us have reinvented ourselves. As a working woman then perhaps as a wife, a mother, a volunteer or caregiver. She has gained self awareness through meditation, exercise and following her passions. Her most rewarding reinvention has been as podcast host and she is walking the walk as she shares her journey on the art of living on purpose and embracing life with more joy, ease and trust.
Wendy shares three simple reinvention tips for anyone wishing to make the change they long for.
Thank you for listening and if you are loving the podcast, I invite you to share, subscribe and give some gold stars to it so we can reach more people. Remember, when you ignite your spark, you give others the permission to do the same and the world needs YOUR light.
Shine on!

My guest today is not prominent on Social Media, and you have probably never heard of him, but his story is remarkable. He left school at the age of 14 to work in construction where he spent many years before joining the British Armed Forces. After leaving the military through a few twists and turns he taught bricklaying to students until he did research on ways to combat stress, downloaded a REIKI training manual and that one act literally changed his life.
He and his wife attended the Spiritualist Church near them and more synchronicities and healing abilities landed upon him. He shares with us the stories surrounding how he acquired all of his healing modalities. His authentic and down to earth nature will leave you uplifted and inspired. He tells us that we all have the ability to heal ourselves energetically and John now spends his time healing, teaching, leading the Church and igniting the sparks (the energy) of all who come into his presence.
John tells us that we all share guides, they are energy and surround us all. We can reach out to them at any time for assistance with healing and more. He also tells us that The Fifth Dimension is a place where all all unwanted energy is sent, transmuted and released as a harmonized energy back to the universe.
John is charming, modest, wise and so knowledgeable. I hope you enjoy him as much as I did.
Thank you for tuning in and should you love the podcast I hope you will share it, leave a review and give it five gold stars!
Shine on!
You can find John on Facebook Messenger - the best way to reach him. And he always responds. Catch him for a healing before his star soars.

Neurofeedback is a therapy to optimize the way the brain processes information. My guest today, Marty Wuttke has dedicated his life to assisting others in the unfolment of their individual potential.
Marty began his journey into the service of others when he learned how to meditate, a practice he continues to this day, arising at 3:30 a.m. to Ignite his spark in this way.
Marty is a pioneer in the field of Neurotherapy and was the first to utilize neurofeedback as an inpatient treatment method for drug addictions, anxiety disorders, depression and more.
Marty shares the brain is plastic and can change through meditation. By meditating and/or utilizing neurofeedback therapy, we can access anything within ourselves to create lasting change. If you are one of those who can't sit still and meditate, Marty says he has never met anyone who could not learn how to do so. Walking and moving in nature are his recommendations for beginning the process.
Thanks for tuning in for inspiration and ways to assist us in living our best lives.
Shine on,

Communication is key in all areas of our life. Business, relationships and every day wanderings require communication. And according to my guest Michelle Gladieux, raising your game as a communicator is one of the best ways to make a difference in the world, but it takes courage.
Michelle is an instructional designer, trainer and executive coach. She has 18 years of collegiate teaching experience and has her own consulting company helping teams of people communicate with courage.
Her new book COMMUNICATE WITH COURAGE guides us on a journey to take risks to overcome four hidden challenges that Michelle has identified. These challenges often stop us from communicating to the best of our abilities.
Michelle gives us many pro-tips as she calls it, to assist us in our own communication journey. Her four hidden challenges (fears) that she has refined from coaching thousands of people are: hiding from risk, defining to be right, rationalizing the negative and settling for good enough.
We all do one or more of these in our communication with others and Michelle gives us examples of each of these four challenges and a few tips s to help us overcome them for better communication.
Thanks for tuning in and as always, if you are enjoying the podcast, please share, subscribe and rate. Let's set sparks aglow!

On today's episode Rachel Cooley, Angel Therapy Practitioner, and I dig into all things angelic. Rachel has been practicing and living with Angelic guidance for decades, when she was introduced to spirituality by her Mom when she was a teen.
Years later she was "saved" by an angel's voice that helped her avoid a tragic accident. From then on, Rachel studied all things angelic and became a certified practitioner who now teaches others how to connect to the angelic realm and so much more.
Our conversation is filled with light and my spark was ignited. Rachel shares the difference between angels and archangels (spoiler alert - they can all help us at any time, any where). She also gives us a reading from Archangel Michael which is meant for all of us.
May you all receive angelic blessings and please share this episode if you feel inspired to do so.
Thank you for tuning in and shine on!

In today's episode I interview Suzanne Culberg , a "NO" coach, and author. She is a Certified Practitioner of Neuro Linguistic programming (NLP) and holds a Bachelor of Medical Science. Suzanne also has Certificates in Fitness,and is a Certified Sacred Depths Practitioner.
I am a big fan of saying "yes...and" thanks to years of improv training, but in this episode Suzanne shares why it is so important to say no.
It's all about saying NO in order to put yourself first, set boundaries and launch into a life of more fulfillment. She says that we will go from surviving to thriving by putting ourselves first and knowing when and how to say no and have the tough conversations.
Many women in particular fall into the people pleasing trap, saying yes to everything and everyone, and often debilitating themselves in the process. Through her signature online program, Why W8? Suzanne has helped hundreds of women break the cycle of putting themselves last and instead build the confidence to set boundaries.
If you find yourself falling prey to the vicious cycle of not knowing how to say no, you will find some great tips as to why we say no, how to say no and the importance of that little word.

Are you afraid of seeing, hearing or feeling "dead" people? There is so much conversation around mediumship these days and my guest Keisha Gallegos and I chat about all things dealing with being a medium and using your intuition.
Keisha is an author, a certified master coach, an intuitive and a medium. Her approach is big-hearted, spiritual and funny and she works with people with laser focus on their goals and growth.
In our lively conversation Keisha shares that anyone can access and develop their intuition and anyone can also learn to be a medium. That's right, Keisha compares learning to open yourself up to listening to "spirit" like learning to play the piano. Everyone CAN learn, but not everyone wants to work that hard and not everyone has the natural ability. But at the very least we can all learn to trust and listen to our own intuition.
We both believe that honing into your own intuition and raising your vibration is vastly important to help us raise the vibration of the planet and all of us right here, right now. Keisha shares that it is as simple as focusing on something that expands your heart with love.
If you enjoy our fun filled conversation and have learned something new, please share with your friends! Comments and likes and subscribing to the podcast - all are appreciated.

Plant Medicine is in the mainstream now as a way to transform, reach a higher level of consciousness and become the best version of yourself. Today Jonathan De Potter joins me on the podcast to talk about the benefits of plant medicine, the why, the what and the how.
Jonathan was a former marketing consultant who felt that life was not serving him, he was looking for something more and went on his own plant medicine journey. This spiritual transformation led him to create his company Behold Retreats - a bespoke wellness service that facilitates journeys of self-discovery and transformation, supported by the scientifically proven therapeutic and spiritual benefits of plant medicine.
Shamans, sages and everyday people have been reporting access to higher levels of consciousness and deeper states of awareness, and many PTSD sufferers have reported complete trauma healing through the use of plant medicine in the right environment, with the right support, and with the right intention.
We talk about my fear around participating and ingesting these different plants, and Jonathan shares how you will just know if a journey is right for you. He discusses the importance of doing prep work before a journey and how to maintain the transformation that occurs.
Hopefully this conversation will enlighten you and perhaps even entice you to raise your own consciousness by attending a facilitated plant journey of your own.
Shine on! Please share the podcast if you are enjoying it. Cheers....and thank you.

Jeanette Fernandez joins me today on the podcast to share her tips on how to become more conscious and find your highest self.
Jeanette is a Holistic Registered Nurse, a Soul and Metaphysical Counselor , A reiki Practitioner and an Evolutionary Astrologist. Her goal is to guide us through the ever changing path of life. She shares that being present, taking time to be silent and going within is key to discovering what is next for you.
Jeanette assists people on their own journey to discover their authentic self, or what is next for them in this lifetime. She reminds us that we are filled with programs passed down through DNA or from what we have been told in this lifetime, and we have the chance to undo the conditioning to discover the real US.
Another interesting reminder that Jeanette shared is that when we see something in someone else that we don't like, it is a mirror of something we don't like within ourselves. So we have the power to change that! Same thing if we admire something in someone, we possess that same quality, we just need to let it shine!
Jeanette wants to help others heal so they can shine their authentic light. Sound familiar?

He has coached real estate professionals to become millionaires, he works with us regular folk as well to assist us in reaching our highest potential and he is just an amazing and positive human being.
This episode is like a Ted Talk where Dr. Hank shares inspiration, tips and thoughts on how we can become happier, and lead a life of our dreams. He shares that our thoughts are so much more powerful than we know. We have over 60k thoughts a day and 80% of them are negative self talk. We are constantly berating ourselves, and all we need to do is generate happy thoughts and emotions in order to create and manifest a happier state of being.
Dr. Hank also states that the biggest road block to achieving what we most desire is FEAR - and shares a new definition. Face Everything and Rise!
Perhaps after listening you will create good feeling thoughts - particularly because Dr. Hank shares what he does to immediately shift into a positive emotional state.

Today on Ignite Your Spark we are discussing something we have never spoken about. INTIMACY with your partner. My guest is Alexandra Stockwell who was a practicing doctor for a dozen years before she realized something was missing in her life.
After a sabbatical from her work, she discovered a passion (!) for teaching intimacy to others after exploring her own relationship with her husband of 27 years. She had four children, everything she had been working for had been achieved, and she expected to have some sense of being satisfied. But there was a whisper telling her she wanted more aliveness. She found that helping others with intimacy was fulfilling to her and truly her life purpose.
Our conversation is honest and open (just like you should be in relationships) and I know you will come away wanting to ignite the spark in your relationship!
Alexandra is the bestselling author of "Uncompromising Intimacy" and host of The Intimate Marriage Podcast.

Lynne Twist is bringing inspiration to Ignite Your Spark in this episode. For more than 40 years, Lynne has been a recognized global visionary committed to alleviating poverty, ending world hunger and supporting social justice and environmental sustainability.
She is the founder of the Pachamama Alliance and one of the founders of The Hunger Project, founder of Soul of Money Institute and the author of the best selling book, "The Soul of Money." Her latest book is "Living a Committed Life", Finding Freedom and Fulfillment in a Purpose Larger Than Yourself."We have an eye opening conversation about the importance of finding our unique place in the world, and how important it is to share our gifts with the world and how vital it is to live a committed life. Lynne is an extraordinary philanthropist whose life was transformed when she attended Werner Eckhart's EST training many years ago. Lynne recognized how important it was to commit to something greater than yourself in order to help the world. Her first mission was to end world hunger. A huge undertaking, but her passion and commitment to this cause changed her life and that of many, many people.
Lynne has since gone on to walk the talk and in her travels she has worked with Buckminster Fuller, Mother Theresa and many other notable people whose goals are to change the world for the better.
Lynne shares that we often get caught in living an inauthentic life and we judge and evaluate ourselves. We get into a world of worrying about ourselves and not being able to express ourselves. When we look at something greater than ourselves we are magically transformed for the better. Lynne acknowledges that we will find a kind of fulfillment in the action of service and making a difference.

Welcome back everyone to IGNITE YOUR SPARK – took a wee bit of time off to renew, reinvigorate and reignite my own spark and I’m really excited, honestly and truly to bring you the first episode of 2023.
Today my guest is Stephanie Keith who joined me last year where we talked about Manifestation and her business, The Law of Attraction Tribe. I invited her back to be my first guest because who doesn’t want to start the new year manifesting their heart’s desires. Instead of making a resolution, why not manifest what you really want.
After 12 years in the corporate grind, Stephanie decided to manifest a life she doesn’t need a vacation from. She helps women crack their money code and use the science behind manifestation to create a life of wealth & freedom. She is the author of the book, “Trust the Universe”, has her own podcast, and an app which has brought thousands of people together as members of Stephanie’s inner tribe. The app is called MANIFEST IT NOW.
In this episode, Stephanie and I both talk about how WE manifest and how important it is to just keep an open mind when working on manifesting. Treat it like a science experiment, and what have you got to lose. So many people don’t believe they can manifest, so guess what? They can’t. We discuss getting rid of fear, living in joy and vibrating at a high level – all things which will lead you on your path to manifesting the life you don’t need a vacation from.
Manifesting tips and tricks are discussed – so get ready to take notes and manifest away!
Thank you for tuning in and sharing this episode, please rate and comment if the "spirit" moves you!
I wish you the absolute best this year and may your every dream come true.
Shine on,
Kim

Dr. Carrie Jarosinski is today's amazing guest who shares how storytelling can help us renew our health and wellness. Dr. Carrie is a registered nurse, wellness coach educator, inspirational speaker and author of Reclaim Your Story: Renew your health and wellness through the power of Storytelling.
We all have ways we describe ourselves but we are so much more than our labels of Mom, Podcast Host, Nurse etc. We tell stories to ourselves, good bad and indifferent. And the ways we describe ourselves live on in our bodies, often causing disease. Dr. Carrie shares that we should take a deeper dive into our own heads to become aware of those stories that might not be in our best interest. Acknowledge them, then write a new story, one that will support our journey to health and wellness.
We also discuss how health and wellness is not always what we think. We need to be healthy intellectually, spiritually, emotionally and socially in addition to being healthy physically.
Let's all be the best version of ourselves! My goal is to help inspire you to do just that.

My guest today, Lisa Haisha created her own method of helping lead people through transformation and it's called Soul Blazing. And that will Ignite Your Spark!
Lisa's journey to where she has landed today began with a Madonna concert when she had the opportunity to meet the legend and receive words of wisdom that changed Lisa's life. Madonna encouraged her to travel the world - on her own, something that 23 year old Lisa did not think was possible. However, she did just that and today has traveled to over 60 countries. Through her journeys she was introduced to many different spiritual practices and became so intrigued that she received a Master's in Spiritual Psychology.
Soul Blazing came about while she was working in a women's prison with the "lifers". As she practiced coaching she worked with one woman who had lost all hope. However, Lisa opened her up and this woman was transformed and told Lisa, thank you for blazing my soul and thus the name for her business landed.
Lisa has interviewed and filmed dozens of movers and shakers and out of the box thinkers, including Dr. Bruce Lipton, Jack Canfield and Byron Katie. These are Amazon originals, SoulBlazing with Lisa Haisha and Conversations with Master Teachers and Encounters with Metaphysical Healers.
Lisa has done humanitarian work all over the globe and has just released a book SoulBlazing: How to harness your Imposters, Release Negative Self-Talk and lead a more Authentic and Purposeful Life.
We talk about the 7 imposters or archetypes that we may identify with in our conversation and how we can change them into superpowers. These imposters often shape our stories and hold us back from living a more purposeful life.
Shine on friends! Thanks for listening and sharing if you feel so motivated.

It's time to heal and transform the QUANTUM WAY. Joshua Bloom, is my guest and is with me sharing his unique healing and transformational modality – Quantum Energy Transformation.
His energy and passion for his purpose (to help us transform our lives) comes across the airwaves and you will finish the podcast feeling more inspired and uplifted and dare I say it, even transformed.
Joshua is the best-selling author of “The Ultimate Answer…Is Inside”, the executive producer of the movie of the same name featuring some of the most well known transformational leaders of our time, including Bruce Lipton and Bernie Siegel M.D among others.
Through his own healing journey, Joshua studied many, many modalities - NLP, hypnotherapy, Reiki and more. Joshua uses the concepts behind Quantum physics along with his other studies to bring about rapid and total transformation for his clients. He healed himself from anxiety, migraines, A.D.D. and dyslexia.
Through Quantum Energy Transformation, Joshua helps people transform their energy at the cellular level of their body to create a quantum shift. In the podcast he shares how he does this, and we learn that we can’t “fix” problems, rather we evolve them. We, as the person undergoing healing and transformation experience an upgraded energy to release a problem.
Quantum is all about the study of possibilities and we are unlimited beings who have the ability to transform ourselves.
This is a fascinating look into how we can become the best version of ourselves.
Joshua has also gifted all of my listeners and lovers of IGNITE YOUR SPARK, with a free gift that will help us learn what is possible in the area of manifestation.

Today my conversation is with Dr. Book Sheehan, a healer whom I have been working with for the past 6 months. Dr. Brook is a chiropractor and Dynamic Systems Analysis Practitioner. Dr. Brook comes from a long line of medical practitioners, however it took her some time to realize this field was also for her.
Diagnosed with mild Cerebral Palsey at birth, Dr. Brook ran the story in her head, that she could not be a Doctor. So many of us are patterned to believe we can or cannot do things. Fortunately Dr. Brook found a chiropractor when she was pregnant with her child, who saw light in her and encouraged her to use her innate gifts to get a Chiropractic degree.
From healing her migraines to giving birth to a healthy baby, Dr. Brook knew she could also help others, as she had been helped. With a toddler at home, leaving her accounting world, she went to Chiropractic school and furthered her studies with Dynamic Systems Analysis.
Dr. Brook shares her story, and enlightens us about what DSA is. Each of us has a unique body that changes on a daily basis. She helps her clients identify what their body needs at any given time.
We also get a small exercise that can help us each make our own intuitive choices on what is right for our body.
Dr. Brook has helped me immensely on my own healing journey. For more info she can be found here.

Today’s guest is a repeat visitor to Ignite Your Spark. Dr. Greg Hammer was on the podcast last year to talk about his book, The GAIN method, and he’s back to share more wisdom with us.
Dr. Hammer is a Professor at Stanford University School of Medicine, pediatric intensive care physician, pediatric anesthesiologist and mindfulness expert. Dr. Hammer is also the Chair of the Physician Wellness Task Force for the California Society of Anesthesiologists.
I really love how Dr. Hammer marries the mind and body for optimal healing. As a mindfulness expert and author on the subject, he knows how important the mind body connection is to assist us in living a more joyful and optimally healthy life.
In this conversation we focus on the importance of being non-judgmental. We discuss how prevalent the negativity bias is in our society and how we need to let it go. Through his daily practice, outlined in his book - of Gratitude, Acceptance, Intention and Non-Judgement, we can work to change the neuroplasticity of our brain in order to let go and basically be happier. It is within our power to rewire and reshape the way we think.
Dr. Hammer shares his techniques for letting go of judgement and gives us some great examples from his life on how to do just that.
Shine on and let go of judgement - you will be glad you did!

Welcome to the 100th episode of Ignite Your Spark! I'm thrilled to have you all hear, thank you for listening.
Today's episode features Scientist, and Human Potential Coach Holly Copeland. Holly began her career as a conservation scientist. She pivoted when she became so disheartened by the state of the planet that she decided she could make a bigger difference by working with people. She began by delving into neuro science, our brain and the meditative state. She realized that helping people would ultimately help the planet and she took a deep dive into healing the chaos that lurks within all of us.
Holly is a Human Potential coach, neuromeditation teacher, sound healer and Reiki Master. We talk about different scientific tools which can assist us in our own healing. She shares how she first used a headband tool called The Muse which enabled her to see her brain waves while meditation. She also gives us the whys and hows of using Tuning Forks to assist us in releasing stored trauma around our body. It's that Quantum Field that some of my other guests have spoken about. How everything is energy and our energetic field that surrounds us contains all the traumas we have suffered. Tuning forks help release that trauma.
We talk a lot about the thinking mind and how vital it is to live from a "being" state.
Holly leads us through a powerful meditation that helps us tune into that state.
Thank you again for listening, and please rate, subscribe and share if you are enjoying inspiration through Ignite Your Spark.

It's season 3 here at Ignite Your Spark and my first guest is Elen Sentier, a bestselling author, witch, shaman and psychotherapist. Yes, she has a lot of wisdom to share. As a 3 Dimensional Wild Coach, she utilizes all of her years of knowledge to assist others in finding and unleashing the parts of themselves that they have hidden away.
In our conversation, this quirky wilderness woman (her words) we talk about the energy encapsulated in all things. Elen encourages us to respect everything, from a pen to a chair. All things were made from the earth at one point and respecting and caring for our "things" is the right way to be in the world.
Elen comes from a very long lineage of witches, shamans, wilders - and she shares how she is "one who knows". We discuss the difference between using our thinking mind and our intuitive mind - guess which is more important?
Elen tells us about Soul Retrieval and how important it is to find the missing parts of ourselves in order to be fully whole.
She is shining her light, igniting sparks and I know you will be inspired!

Why on earth would you want to roar like a Goddess? You would only if you want to be the best and most enlightened and awakened version of yourself - that's why!
My guest today is Acharya Shunya who embodies all the different aspects of the Goddess Shakti. She is the first female head of her 2,000-year-old Indian spiritual lineage, Shunya reinterprets and recontextualizes ancient teachings for modern times, empowering people everywhere to lead fearless, fulfilled and enlightened lives.
Shunya is the author of three bestselling books Ayurveda lifestyle Wisdom (2017), Sovereign Self (2020) and her newest book i Roar Like a Goddess:Every Woman's Guide to Becoming Unapologetically Powerful, Prosperous, and Peaceful. In this book, Acharya Shunya honors her progressive Vedic roots while breaking the shackles of tradition to bring modern-day women, an inclusive, feminist spirituality.
We talk about why Shunya wrote her book, and my favorite quote is "...so that nobody ever forgets to roar with joy". Our beliefs and hope are so similar in that we want everyone to awaken to the spark within. Shunya gives amazing examples in our podcast and answers questions about the Vedas, our Dharma and how anyone can access their inner Goddess.
Shunya stresses how important it is to give priority to your own dharma, to care for yourself so you can care for others, accomplish what you are meant to and live your best life. She stresses that it is never too late to become who you were meant to be.
We also talk about the four parts of Shakti and what they represent. When we embody all of these pieces we will roar like a goddess.

Maybe you've heard other spiritual podcasts or teacher speaking about ascension. What is it you may be wondering or how do I get there? Today my guest Ellyn Katherine Shamolov tells us what it is and how we can get to a place of infinite joy, happiness and fulfillment of our soul destiny.
Her modality is a new one to me, she works with people utilizing The Quantum Enlightenment System. This is a system she was divinely guided to create and present to assist us in raising our vibrations, remembering our true essence in order to help us release emotional burdens that are holding us back.

IGNITE YOUR SPARK with an adventurer extraordinaire – Renee Linell.
Let’s talk about getting out of your comfort zone, shall we? Does that spark fear in you when I say that? For most people it does, but not for today’s guest on Ignite Your Spark. Renee Linnell is a former surf model, professional Argentine Tango dancer, a serial entrepreneur, world traveler and author. She traveled to over 50 countries before she was 35, and not just travelled. She lived, adventured and had more harrowing experiences than most of us will have in a lifetime.
All of that and she is a cult survivor! Renee shares how important it is to be present and fully aware of where we are in life. She learned to navigate life by stepping out of her comfort zone at an early age. Her father died when she was 15, she lived with an alcoholic mother and left home at 17 to begin her life of adventure.
Renee shares such great advice on how to get the most out of life with being present, appreciating all that we have, being grateful and she does all this by stepping WAY out of her comfort zone. She is open and honest, raw and vulnerable and we talk a bit about some of the stories in her second book, “Still on Fire”, The stories seem like fiction, but they are all true and she is truly a “bad ass”.

Have you ever had a 911 from your soul? You know one of those wake up calls that you can't ignore? My guest today has written a book called 911 FROM YOUR SOUL., that will assist you as you move through the emergency to your divine self.
It’s all about the transformation for me as I have often said and I absolutely love, admire and am so grateful for those humans who are truly in the world making a difference and working to create change one person at a time. This is what Jeanine is doing.
Jeanine was a successful Fortune 50 Executive, former clinical Psychotherapist, holds an MSW in Social work, volunteers in the hospice arena and is now working as a Transformational Coach.
Her own 911 from her soul, was a wake up call to explore the Spiritual side of life. She knew something was missing in her so-called “perfect” life. Doing a deep dive into herself and exploring Reiki, Yoga and connecting mind body and soul brought her to the concepts she shares. All brought her home to her soul. She learned that only through the inward journey could she live a life with meaning.
My most favorite takeaway from our conversation is how important it is to fall in love with life again. Jeanine shares that our breath and focusing on it is falling in love with life consciously. There are so many ways to fall in love with life and she shares more of them in our conversation.
Jeanine also talks about how we traverse life in wonder suits, our earth body and we need to move through life as a human but also as our highest divine expression. She shares that we have unlimited possibilities in front of us and that we are connected to the universe where everything you want to know is completely possible. We talk a great deal about this and how simple it is to do so. Jeanine also talks about divine consciousness which she refers to as a holly reassembly with her 911, This can be a fundamental radical reshaping of who you want yourself to be - in order to find yourself as more than a human being in our human wonder suit.
If you aren't in a crisis, you might find it interesting to implement some of the practices we discuss in order to prevent the big asteroid from hitting you in the head!
I know that Jeanine’s light will inspire and motivate you to SHINE ON!

Laurie Wright is successful in all areas of her life - NOW. She left her corporate job, where she was last seen as a VP at AOL, and has since created a top rated podcast and a coaching business working with women in their "second" act, to help them discover their purpose and passion and bring a spark back into their lives.
She is now a certified Master NeuroCoach, trained in a brain-based, science-backed method which she uses to help clients remove blocks in their brain that are holding them back and replace them with new neuro pathways that will make their goals easier and faster to achieve.
At 55 she found her own purpose - as a coach - and it lit her soul on fire. You know I love any spark reference. She is also a successful and loved Grandma, and she is definitely not your average grandma as her brand indicates.
In our conversation we talk about how she helps women uncover their authentic self and how to know if you aren't living your authentic self. Her mission is to help as many women as possible get unstuck and create the life they were meant to live. She does this through one on one coaching and her school which is called "The Second Half S.P.A.R.K School".

Today’s guest is Hypnotherapist and Rapid Transformational Therapist Stephanie Woods. Hypnotherapy is something all of us can use to access parts of ourselves that cause us self-doubt or trouble sleeping, anxiety or self esteem issues and even physical ailments. Stephanie works with anyone who has blocks that prevent them from doing something in their lives. She has even worked with lawyers who can’t pass the bar exam. I ask all the questions about hypnotherapy that you will want to know. Can everyone be hypnotized? Yes, she hasn’t met anyone yet who can’t be. Will we remember our session? Yes, you are not unconscious. Stephanie works with your subconscious and it is amazing what that part of us remembers.
Stephanie works with each client to create new thoughts and new patterns around the issues each person may have. And, I know how this works because I had a session with Stephanie after our podcast. Truly remarkable. Stephanie sends you a 15 minute recording she puts together to assist you in creating new beliefs around your blocks. She then follows up with you for a month to see how that subconscious reprograming is going.
Our mind will do anything we tell it to! It’s a fascinating topic and we talk about how much faster this therapy is in uncovering root causes, more so than traditional talk therapy.
And don’t worry, you won’t be hypnotized by listening, or maybe you will!
Shine on!

So you think you know what living your life on purpose means? Right? Or maybe you wonder how you can transform your life into one that you choose on purpose. That is the question we go into in this episode of Ignite your Spark with Amy Wong.
I am a transformational junkie and Amy has devoted herself to the study and practice of transformation. She is a certified executive coach with an MS in transpersonal psychology, a BA in Mathematics from UC Berkeley and she has studied design thinking, interpersonal neurobiology and conversational intelligence. Whew!. She has also provided thousands of transformational experiences to individuals, executives and teams working with the big tech companies like Facebook, LinkedIn, Roku and more. Amy is the author of the book, LIVING ON PURPOSE, Five Deliberate Choices to Realize Fulfillment and Joy. In her book she outlines simple processes with science to back up her findings as a roadmap to help us on a journey to really and truly thrive.
In our conversation we talk about the self imposed limitations we all have, what exactly living a life on purpose is - her definition - Living on purpose is being in the drivers seat of our own life, choice is everything . Choice is our true superpower. Making those choices from a place of wisdom will best serve us.So many great nuggets, how we shouldn't resist our blahness, accept it, observe it, figure out why we feel the way we do and then shift our focus. Amy encourages us to figure out the relationship you have with yourself. As that is the most important step in living a life on purpose.

If you listen to this podcast you are probably familiar with Channeling. And if you aren't, then this is the episode for you. My guest Stephanie Banks is a conscious channel and is both a vessel to receive messages as well as a guide to provide depth and context for the information coming through. Unlike other channelers I have spoken with, Stephanie's genius is channeling living souls. Yes, that's right. She can channel the soul of your mother, father, child, brother etc.
This is particularly powerful if you have someone in your life who might be suffering from dementia or have a child or relative who is non verbal - on the autism spectrum. Or anyone with who you wish a clearer and more communicative relationship.
In this episode we discuss how anyone can channel and anyone can find a way to utilize their intuition in order to do so. Channeling to her is connecting to divine energy, spirit, angels, God, the universe.
After this episode you will definitely be surprised at how easy it is to learn to channel, through Stephanie of course.
Thanks for listening and let me know your thoughts through Instagram, email of Facebook.
Shine on,

Oh you know we all feel it, now more than ever. FEAR.....we often let our fear rule our lives, but sometimes the fear we are experiencing is not a real threat, but rather a learned response.
Today my guest, Rebecca Ward, gives us suggestions on how to walk through fear, to get to the other side. And guess what lives on the other side - JOY! She tells us that our system overreacts to fear causing that old flight or fight syndrome. We all know it's there, we just sometimes succumb to the fear when it is not real.
Rebecca has written a book called THE PAPER TIGER SYNDROME, with exercises and meditations to assist us in walking through our own fears. Having walked through many traumas, she has learned how to regulate her own nervous system to return to her Original Blueprint. You original blueprint is the you filled with joy that you are born with. It gets stomped on and hidden as we go through life. Rebecca tells us that we CAN indeed return to it, by recognizing our fears, exploring them, walking through them and finally returning to joy.
One of the key ways to do this is to regulate our breath. Rebecca takes us through a grounding exercise to assist us with this, so enjoy!
Rebecca is a licensed Marriage & Family therapist who specializes in grief & loss, trauma and stress reduction. She is a master somatic Experiencing Practitioner and is certified in Interactive Guided Imagery and the Integrative Enneagram. She also comes from a 30 year career as a management consultant and executive coach.

Today my guest is Elisabeth Hancock who is on a mission to help raise the consciousness of the world in part by sharing the science behind the woo.
Elisabeth joins me from Dubai where she currently resides with her husband and two children. She works with people the world over, to assist them in raising their own vibration in order to change the vibration of the planet, one person at a time. Elisabeth has done a deep dive into the science behind what raises our consciousness. She has explored quantum physics, the string theory and Epigenetics and has researched many studies that prove that we can change our DNA and how one person can make a difference in the world.
Elisabeth actually raised her own vibration and lifted herself out of depression. She tells us how she did this, all on her own, by remembering her happiest day. She did this over and over and over again. She proves that we can all change the way we think, feel and behave.
Her new book is called, Work Your Energy!The Entrepreneur's guide to raising your vibration, tapping into higher consciousness and achieving more happiness, success and wealth. I read every single one of my guest's books, if they have written one, because I love learning. She gives us meditations and exercises to assist us in utilizing our own energy to raise our vibrations.
I hope that you too will be able to open your mind to connect with your own higher consciousness after listening to this podcast.
And thank you for sharing, liking and subscribing to IGNITE YOUR SPARK!

Who loves food? Most of us right? And we probably know deep down how important nutrition is for our well being. Today my guest is Kim Ross who holds degrees in clinical nutrition and dietetics long with certificates in holistic nutrition and a fellowship in herbal medicine.
We talk about how important it is to honor our bodies with food - eat the rainbow! And Kim is also realistic and shares that it's ok to eat what brings you joy - cookies, pizza etc, as long as you put some good (veggies, berries etc.) in with the not as good shall we say.
We all have different needs for our bodies and there is no one way to eat. Veganism may be great for some, while other people may need animal protein. Kim is an expert in knowing what each person's body requires to be it's optimal healthy self. Through blood tests, questionnaires and indepth discussions, Kim determines what is right for YOU.
We speak about how important it is to heal our body through our food, and we chat about adaptagens and some of the functions of various herbs.
Basically, we get to choose what to put in our body each and every day in order to help it heal!
Shine on with food!

Today's episode is all about Tapping or EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique). Theresa Lear Levine is my guest and she is a Master EFT practitioner and Energy Coach. She specializes s in helping women heal from the inside out, reclaim their power, release negative blockages and reinforce the positive.
Tapping is basically just what it sounds like, tapping on different meridians throughout our body (works in a way similar to acupuncture, but no needles!) This tapping calms our amygdala lowers cortisol levels and redirects our energy. I know it sounds unbelievable, but I have been using it for years for sleep and a variety of other issues and it WORKS.
After tuning in to this episode you will have a much better understanding of what exactly tapping is. AND, Theresa conducted and recorded a tapping session with me after our interview. She is making it available to all of you so that you can actually see what a session is and use your own words to start to change your own energy regarding a specific issue.
You just email her for a link to the video. It's so cool. And you will see me in my authentic real way, searching for answers like all of us.

Today my lovely guest is author and rite of passage Educator for women and girls, Elizabeth Gould. Careers in the art world and teaching led her to become the director of a non-profit committed to positive menstrual/menopausal education and awareness.
Coming to us from New Zealand, Elizabeth spent a few years writing her book. The Well of Truth, a delightful coming of age tale (of a woman), that grew out of her decades of experience as a mother, teacher, activist and from her love of mythology, goddess traditions and the moon.
We talk about the importance of taking time for yourself, so you can give more easily and thoughtfully to others. SO important. We also discuss the importance of embracing change in your life and of course we go off on tangents that will hopefully inspire you to embrace change in your own life as did Elizabeth.

In addition to his special abilities, Vincent holds a BA in Psychology, a Masters in Social Work and was a Hospice Clinical Social worker, helping hundreds of patients transition through their dying process while comforting their family and friends.
Vincent’s personal journey to realizing his true mission and purpose in life was wrought out of the trauma and pain he experienced as a child. He endured physical, emotional, and sexual abuse and did not have positive role models to encourage self-belief and self-love. Vincent began his career as an actor, appearing in several well known tv shows and plays and even appeared in the movie Grease.
Vincent is known as the “tell-it-like-it-is” and “truly authentic” Spiritual Teacher and Psychic Therapist. He combines his extraordinary psychic abilities, academic credentials, and genuine all-loving approach to provide healing for body, mind, and spirit. As a Psychic Therapist, Vincent uses his more than 36 years of training, research, and experience in the Metaphysical, Psychology, and Spiritual fields to dive deep into the psyche where true transformation takes place, helping clients to examine their beliefs and leave behind whatever is blocking them from the empowerment to heal their own weaknesses, imbalance, or lack.
His book, The Secret That's Holding you Back, gives us tools to develop conscious practices to help us live an authentically expressed life. He is warm and genuine and truly wants to help mankind by assisting us in the important arena of self-love!

Scalar energy is healing energy and my guest today Tom Paladino, has created instruments that harness that energy for healing. Tom's goal is to make a difference in the world by using Scalar energy. It's a fascinating example of science combusting with spirituality.
Tom is a researcher and scientist seeking to make a difference in the world by providing people with the education and tools to restore optimal health, and by helping enhance their quality of life.
Tom began his research with Scalar Energy during his undergraduate years after developing a deep admiration for the father of Scalar Energy research , Nikola Tesla. He was also able to study the work of a man Hieronymus who continued research on Scalar Energy. Hieronymus’ major contributions included unbinding the RNA/ DNA bonds of microbes plaguing the agricultural industry (rendering them harmless).
The existence of such energy not found within the electromagnetic spectrum, fascinated Tom. Inspired by these findings, he pursued a course of independent study seeking to better understand and subsequently harness Scalar Energy, through the development of an instrument called “Scalar Light”.
Listen in as Tom helps me, a non-scientist understand the workings of scalar energy. Just using a photograph of people, Tom uses his instruments to assist in our overall healing.
I have been receiving these remote healings for several weeks now, and I am sleeping better and have even more energy! Believe it or not, it's amazing.

A few questions for you - do you believe in Heaven? What if I said do you believe in paradise?Do you think it is possible to create heaven on earth?
These are some of the questions we go into in today’s episode with my guest Kornelia Stephanie. Kornelia is a gifted intuitive energy guide who has traveled the world modeling inner peace. Through adverse circumstances, including several suicide attempts, Kornelia eventually had a divine awakening where she discovered her ability to create heaven on earth. After surrendering to something other than herself Kornelia realized she was here on earth to do her best to guide the human race into a new consciousness, often referred to as the fifth dimension.
Kornelia teaches people to embrace their humanity by offering simple and practical tools on how to live, how to heal their lives using the power of their emotions and how to integrate practical spirituality into their daily lives.
Kornelia is the founder of Empower Network, the author of Peace, the Flip Side of Anger, a passionate public speaker, retreat facilitator and now, and I think most importantly, she has developed an app. The Kornelia Stephanie Media Group or KSMG (on the app store). She has gathered some of the world’s leading holistic practitioners and thought leaders in their respective fields, to share their offerings with the world via this app. Ok, yes, I am one of the founding members and I am in the company of some truly remarkable people. So I invite you to download it for free, KSMG in the app store.

I love Fashion - it totally ignites my spark, and today on the podcast I have two instagram influencers - personal stylists, Paul Julch and Erin Stoll.
Spoiler alert, we don’t talk much about actual fashion. We go into gratitude – a lot, how important it is to feel great in your skin and both Paul and Erin are more in the people business, not just the fashion business. They really care about making their clients, and their Instagram followers, feel better each and every day. Sometimes it’s about fashion of course, but it is so much more than that. They encourage people to seek happiness every day – and sometimes that means wearing something you love that expresses yourself authentically, whether it is cozy sweats or "hard" pants (as I call them).
There are many juicy nuggets in this episode that will encourage you to feel better about yourself, and of course I did get them to share some fashion tips for spring as well.
I do hope you are inspired after listening to this episode – to go forth and search for a fun outfit in your closet that lifts you up and brings you joy. But more importantly I hope you laugh, smile and your spark is ignited.

In today's episode we get to take a mini dive into The Tao Te Ching, or the Way, with my guest Diane Dreher who is the author of several books exploring the principles in the 25 centuries old Tao. Lao Tzu wrote this book as a handbook for leaders. In ancient China, to lead wisely, meant to live wisely, to seek personal balance and integration with the cycles of nature.
Diane, an esteemed professor emeritus at Santa Clara University, joins me today to discuss her book, The Tao of Inner Peace. The poems in the Tao are more relevant than ever today, as we truly need to embrace peace within ourselves. The spiritual guide that is the Tao helps us find the path to peace by showing us how to integrate the many facets of our everyday lives to create a balanced, dynamic, harmonious whole.
Diane has a way of interpreting Lao Tzu's teachings that make the principles accessible and understandable for those of us who are not scholars of this ancient Chinese text. Of course we explore some of the ways to find the "way", and we also giggle and have a real down to earth conversation.
If you are enjoying this podcast, please share, comment, like - you know the drill. Feel free to email me with any comments as well.
Shine on my friends!

I am accepting new sparkle clients now. If you or someone you know, needs a little motivation to ignite their spark, send me a note!
My guest today is Jen Accristo – an angel on earth who shines and glows from the inside out. She is a gifted light worker who brings many modalities to her healing practice. She has always had the gift of reading other people’s energies, and she has gone on to study plant medicine in the shamanic tradition, - a fascinating discussion where Jen shares that often a guided plant medicine ceremony can help someone heal from past traumas much more rapidly than traditional talk therapy
Jen utilizes sound healing, reiki, cranial sacral massage (the best), ancestral healing and more, along with her own intuitive gifts to provide her clients the opportunity to step into their physical, spiritual and energetic power.
Her unique healing concept was born when Jen was working as a fitness facilitator and utilizing some of her healing gifts in her sessions and although her clients didn’t completely understand what she did they wanted more, and thus her beautiful healing practice was born.
Oh and fun fact, she also holds a black belt in a form of Kung Fu – Jen is strong, yet vulnerable, gentle and powerful.
She will ignite your spark!
Shine on!

What would make you feel delicious? That is one of my guest's favorite questions. She is Elena Sonnino, a Martha Beck life coach, yin yoga teacher, keynote speaker, cancer survivor, mom and wife.
Delicious isn't usually a word we associate with our feelings, but if you think about it, isn't it great? It's yummy. It conjures up happiness and joy. And that is what Elena does in this episode, spreads joy, encourages us to inhabit our joy (yes we have a choice), and I know that I felt inspired after our conversation.
Elena is on a mission to inspire individuals and groups to thrive in their lives with more curiosity, more delight and more purpose. One of her favorite things to do when working with clients is to ask them good questions and give them space to answer. Sounds simple, but how many of us do that?
Elena teaches a yearly retreat at one of my favorite destinations, Rancho La Puerta, and she has given a talk for Al Jazeera and works with humanitarian brands and organizations motivating and inspiring them.
Her new book is called Inhabit Your Joy - A book of nudges. It's the perfect bedside book for you to pick up and follow a daily nudge or prompt. It helps us ask the questions of ourselves that we need to be a bit more introspective and determine what it is we need in our lives at that moment.
What would make me feel delicious is YOU sharing the podcast with your friends. Sharing and spreading light, joy and delight is something we can choose to do each and every single day.
Until next time.....SHINE ON

Yes, it's the end of January, but it's not too late to create your vision for the year. So, today my guest, L'areal Lipkins will give you actionable tips you can use to create your own vision/goal board if you have not already done so.
I have dubbed L'areal, the QUEEN of Vision Boards and I really enjoyed the online class I took from her and knew I wanted to share her concepts about vision boards with all of you. Our conversation is fun and enlightening and it had me create my board in an entirely different way than I’ve done before. I focused more on my goals, rather than just my dreams. And we talk all about that and the difference between a goal board and a dream board.
L’areal created her business, A Woman with Vision, after she successfully turned her own goals into reality, by getting clear on her vision and focusing on her mindset. Yup, turns out that if we don't believe we deserve something, how can we possibly hope to achieve it. Yup - aha moment for sure.
L'areal is the author of the book A woman with Vision, leads workshops, is a dynamic public speaker and works with women, individually and in groups, to help them clarify their vision to step into the life they were created to live.
If you are enjoying my podcast, please share with your pals, so we can bring more light into everyone's life!

Having been a seeker of information on all things spiritual, I have read a lot, listened to many podcasts and had my own experiences in the realm of what can not be seen by our physical eyes. HOWEVER, until I came across William Peters and his book, At Heavens Door, I had not heard of the Shared Death Experience. I was aware of NDE’s or near death experiences, where someone who has been extremely ill, or been in a horrifying accident, leaves their body, sees the great white light and then returns to their body knowing they still have lessons to learn or teach in the here and now. In fact, my own mother had an NDE when I was about 12, she was having surgery to remove a tumor and left her body watching the surgeons operate. This seemed normal to me. That's how I was brought up!
However, a shared death experience was a new concept for me. It is as it sounds, where someone accompanies a soul as it leaves its body on to the next plane of existence, and yet they are still a living, healthy human. It is really fascinating and William Peters has written his book about what shared journeys to the after life teach the living about dying well and living better.
William is a global leader in shared death studies and has spent decades studying the end of life experience. After he experienced two NDE’s, worked in Hospice and with Aid’s patients and many other near dying, he began the exploration into SDE’s. These extraordinary moments are recounted in his book, discussed and explained. He gives us great reasons about how and why they occur and how they can help us live a better life. William is a practicing grief and bereavement therapist who holds degrees from Harvard and Berkeley. He is compassionate, warm and just a super kind and interesting human.
I absolutely know you will learn something from this episode that will help you appreciate your life. I am grateful to William for sharing his knowledge with me, us, and I am grateful to all of you for listening.
Perhaps this episode will resonate with you or someone you know. If so, please share.
SHINE ON!

Todays guest is Kevin Krenitsky the author of a soon to be released book entitled The Still Point, The Simplicity of Spiritual Enlightenment. Kevin has been, at times, a professional, rock musician, a medical doctor and a business executive. Despite leading what others might consider a very successful life, he lived with a deep background of anxiety, fear and stress that came in and out of his life since he was a child. At the age of 40 he reasoned there must be another way and he began a decade studying non duality by way of A Course in Miracles. We go into what exactly is non duality, what is the ego and how to become more aware, in fact that is the mantra I took away from this book. I am aware!
It’s a fascinating conversation that gets quite philosophical and as you will hear me proclaim, help, I feel like I’m in a college philosophy class with so many questions.
I learned, as you will, that the ego doesn’t exist, love is the recognition of what we truly are and we all have access to the still point.
As usual, thanks for tuning in and if you are enjoying the podcast I hope you will continue to share with your friends, lets keep igniting sparks ok?

Welcome back to a new episode of the podcast and to kick off 2022, I have the shining light that is Phoebe Leona as my first guest of 2022. Phoebe's mission right now in life is to offer new experiences for people to be more embodied and empowered in their own lives so that they can live a fuller life with more joy, confidence and connection. Yee ha....I agree with that.
Phoebe had a life altering year in 2013 when her perfect marriage with the dream man and the dream house dissolved and during the same year her Dad, with whom she had recently reconnected, passed away. Phoebe took the necessary time to heal and from the ashes of her old life was born noMad. As a lifelong dancer, a yoga and pilates instructor, and a seeker, Phoebe created offerings to help others including her signature program Mvt109. A new movement, an experience which takes the body through a journey of exploring the patterns we hold, the stagnant energies we have not visited or given awareness to and gives it a safe place to explore them by way of the release of the old and the grounding of oneself to manifest something new.
We discuss the meaning of noMad, how it came to be and how what Phoebe does can help us all rebuild relationships, reinvent ourselves and so much more. Let her resiliency rub off on you as you hear her story and begin to reinvent your own self.
Phoebe has graciously offered my listeners a discount code for her program Mvt109. Use the code Magic200 for $200 off of this life changing experience.

In my last podcast of the year, I have the pleasure of interviewing one of the guests from season one, Amanda Dahl. In that episode (18) we talked about the power of the energy healing modality Reiki.
In this new episode, Amanda shares information on her latest offering, EMOTION CODE. She combines this with all of her other healing modalities to give each of her clients the healing they need for their particular issues. Along with Reiki, bio magnetic pairing, somatic experience and now Emotion Code work, Amanda works with those suffering from chronic illness, Lyme disease etc, and the testimonials for her work speak for themselves.
Amanda took the energy healing scene by storm after her own intense journey with chronic illness. With her gentle guidance and fresh approach, clients who have "tried everything," enjoy accelerated healing and renewed hope. Physical, emotional, and spiritual needs are considered as Amanda leads clients to a life of health and new possibilities. All work is done virtually so clients can heal in the comfort of home.
About the EMOTION CODE WORK: This unique form of energy work recognizes that our emotions each have an energetic frequency. Emotions such as guilt and fear have very low frequencies, while emotions such as peace and love rank very high.
Emotion Code works with the understanding that these low-frequency emotions can be trapped in our bodies, creating physical dis-ease. Often, this occurs due to past traumatic events, such as abuse, injuries, chronic stress, and more. During a session, Amanda works to identify these trapped emotions and release them one at a time.
I have experienced this and it was amazing what Amanda uncovered for me.

Chiara and Bianca D'Ambrosio are my delightful, sparkly guests. They are 16 year old identical twins who have been in the entertainment industry since they were 2 and a half. They are wise beyond their years, charming, grounded, kind and inspiring. They are YouTube sensations, have been featured in so many TV shows, music videos and movies and they are setting the world on fire with their unique blend of positivity and talent.
Chiara and Bianca made their first music video at the age of 8 when they sang a song called "Let Your Light Shine", a song written by their uncle to take an anti bullying stance. We talk about how they were bullied when younger and how that has helped them grow into the people they are today. They also use their platform to encourage animal welfare, and they donate time, money and resources to other organizations including Alzheimer's research.
These young women are the real deal, they truly care about making a difference through their art and through their actions. Both are headed off to college in the fall - still TBD as of this airing.
Inspiring people can be found at any age, and if they are indicative of the future of our world, then we will be in good hands.
SHINE ON!

Are you ready to follow your yellow brick road? My guest today, Michael Shevack is the author of 6 books, but the one we speak about today is called Soul Lessons from the Wizard of Oz, how to follow your yellow brick road. Inspiring. intriguing and spiritual, the lessons outlined in Michael's book are there to help us learn how to experience greater happiness, greater prosperity and greater sense of self.
You probably took away the lesson that "you have always had the power", as Glinda proclaims to Dorothy before she clicks her ruby red slippers. However, Michael unearths so many more nuggets of wisdom along the yellow brick road. He espouses that all the characters from the story are part of the spiritual path to being a powerful, enlightened soul.
In our conversation we talk about how life gives us lessons to help us grow, and boy did Dorothy have to navigate her way through Oz – with all the ups and downs, twists and turns and various paths to take. Just like we ourselves do as humans living right here and now. . Assisted by the Good Witch Glinda, her spirit animal Toto and her three special friends Dorothy has to learn to trust in something higher than her will and her mind, and most importantly she has to own her own power and not give it away.
And that’s just a snippet of our chat.
Michael has also quthored 5 other books, was an award winning Madison avenue advertising creative director who devised the Gillette slogan, The Best a man can get (for those of you over a certain age). He was ordained as a Rabbi in 1995, has taught spirituality and comparative religion and is active in inter-religious dialogues between Christians, Jews, Muslims and other religions in the US and across the world.
Truly inspirational and I know your spark will be ignited after listening - so thanks for tuning in! Let's all hit the road to spiritual freedom, the yellow brick road that is.

The Science of Ayurveda is fascinating and my guest Cory Tixier shares the Reader's Digest Condensed version on this episode of Ignite Your Spark. I am always looking for new ways to help us heal our bodies and the practice of Ayurveda is a a powerful way to work with your own body's healing abilities. Cory tells us that Ayurveda is an intentional practice toward the goal of a long life. Who doesn't want that?
Cory found her way to Ayurveda or rather it found her as she was searching for how she was going to connect people to nature. Through Ayurveda and its practices, we learn that it is the science of self. The idea is to create balance in our lives, by balancing our doshas, and every single person is different, there is no cookie cutter approach.
By connecting with an Ayurvedic practitioner, you will help your body maintain homeostasis, it is a foundation on how to understand ourselves so we can make informed decisions regarding our health. AND, it all begins in the digestive system. Food as medicine is definitely at play in the living science of Ayurveda.
Let's all go out and heal our bodies!

Today's episode was inspired by my son, who gifted me with a beautiful hand thrown cup for my daily tea. I love it so much, found the artist, looked him up, reached out and voila, a podcast episode with my first creative from New Orleans.
Gerald Haessig was one of 8 kids growing up in the Midwest. He was not one of the kids who was always creating art, rather he took to the trombone and that path of music carried him through his youth and teenage years. Then in his later life. his wife gifted him with a glass blowing class and thus began his path to embracing his inner artist.
We do explore his first experience with the beauty of paintings when his family was able to check out reproductions of famous artwork from the library and how he loved his arts and crafts at summer camp and so much more.
Gerald's latest creations are a line of accessible cups and mugs for which he has received distinctions and accolades. Simply beautiful and each hand crafted item was made with love.
We are all creative and by exploring that side of us, we ignite our sparks to live a more joyful life and fulfilled life. Exploring creativity of any kind lights us up.
So SHINE YOUR LIGHT!

Perhaps you all have been intrigued by medical intuitives. I know I have. I'm so curious about the fact that we can heal ourselves. Today my guest is Tina Zion who is a fourth generation intuitive medium, educator, speaker, author and an expert in medical intuition. Tina has traveled internationally teaching her course Become a Medical Intuitive. Her latest book now gives us the tools to become our own medical intuitive, and yes, according to Tina, we all have the ability to do so.
In our conversation we talk about the meaning of intuition, it's really pretty simple! In fact intuition is simply noticing information. Tina talks about powering up our Toroidal Field for protection and amping up our visualization since that trains the energy field. Learning new things every episode! It is truly fascinating information. We talk about how time is not linear. a very difficult concept to grasp. Deja Vu gets discussed and we acknowledge how challenging it is to to understand that we are traveling throughout time and space - all the time (as it were).
After our conversation I had a mentoring session with Tina and it was so eye opening. You have to be open to accessing your memories and really taking a good hard look at them, in order to heal them for a better and healthier life now. I did just that and it was so freeing. I talk a bit about it in my intro!
I encourage you to visit her website:

Authenticity (check out Kassi's definition), raw, real, laughs, truths. That's what you will find in this episode of Ignite your Spark with Kassi Underwood. Kassi is truly a remarkable light in the world. She also has the credentials in case you care.....a Master's Degree in Creative writing from Columbia University and a Master's of Divinity from Harvard. She actually brought meditation to that esteemed divinity school!
Kassi shares her stories in a way that will resonate with everyone. She had an abortion at 19, went on to write a best seller, MAY CAUSE LOVE, about that experience, got sober at 20, got married, had a baby (while studying at Harvard), got divorced and has been through many lifetimes already.
She created her signature program for women called Money Metaphysics for Maverick Women, which I can't seem to get correct in the podcast! From her own experiences and education she now helps women dig deep to find their inner fortitude and their innate knowledge to help them access what is holding them back from finding financial abundance and the life of their dreams.
Kassi is also the host of her won Podcast, BIG ENERGY, and fun fact, her first guest was her good friend, Marianne Williamson, yes that Marianne!

Do you consider yourself an empath? Or do you know someone who you think embodies empathic qualities? Well, you may be surprised by my guest's definition of an empath. Signe is a self described empath who has written a book to demystify what it means to be an empath and how to navigate life if you find yourself fitting the description.
In "The Space in Between" an empath's field guide, Signe explores and learns to accept and nurture her own empathic abilities. Along the way she discovers that being an empath is neither a gift nor a curse, but an ability that allows us to live in extended communication with nature and humanity. The journey of the empath requires us to dismantle long-held beliefs and rediscover what it means to live a truly authentic life.
I learned so much in this episode and I hope you enjoy this fascinating conversation as much as I did.

Today's guest Cyndi Dale just makes me smile! Her energy is contagious and infectious (in the good way) and I know you will be lifted up after this conversation. Cyndi tells us that 99.99% of a person is energy. Everything is made of energy and Cyndi has written books about the systems of energy. She knows her stuff and shares quotes from sources such as good ole Albert Einstein as well as the Bible.
Cyndi has authored 28 books including one of the first books on the Chakra system (written 28 years ago) and one of the most in depth and longest books on Chakras as well. Her most recent book is called Chakras Food and You, how to eat for your main Chakra type. Fascinating.
We talk about how every single person is intuitive, we just sometimes let fear get in our way to accessing our inner knowing. People, she says, are often afraid of what we COULD know. Because well - we are scared of change, being different or standing out. Can anyone relate?
Thanks for tuning in. You spark will be ignited!

Finally, scientific proof that MEDITATION works. I know it, and hopefully you know it, but in today's episode I speak to Dr. Greg Hammer who cites studies that prove our brains can be rewired. And he knows of what he speaks.
I was honored to hold space for this conversation on Ignite Your Spark with Dr. Hammer. He is a pediatric intensive care physician, pediatric anesthesiologist, professor at Stanford University Medical Center, and #1 best-selling author. He is a member of the Stanford WellMD initiative and the Wellness Committee for the American Society of Anesthesiologists. He has also gone through his own cancer diagnoses and the death of his son. He is a remarkable man truly making a difference in the health care arena.
His book, GAIN Without Pain: The Happiness Handbook for Health Care Professionals focuses on the four pillars of gratitude, awareness, intention, and non judgment to promote well-being.. The book is not just for health care professionals, but anyone who has been suffering from burnout….hmmm….anyone?
We discuss how important it is to live in the present, and how we, as humans tend to have a negativity bias that we need to shift and instead embrace a positivity bias. Wait until you hear the studies that prove that we can rewire our brain. You too will be starting a meditation practice if you don’t have one already.
I also want to share some exciting news with you all. I am now offering Ignite Your Spark coaching. A three month program to assist you in living a happier, more joyful life. We will work together each week for 3 months to help you get unstuck, release limiting belief patterns, open your mind and consciousness to the endless possibilities that are waiting for you.
Please email me for more info, as the details are not yet up on the website, and that may take a minute to get done. It’s ok to be perfectly imperfect right?

She is also the founder of Everyday Peace, a platform where she helps and inspires others to build the lives of their dreams.
We have such wonderful conversation about how to be in awareness of our feelings, how difficult isolation has been for us this past almost two years, and how important it is to savor alone time, one of the most difficult things to do, be by ourselves and not constantly turn to outside forces ie Netflix. Dravon is wise, warm, witty and wonderful and she really has encouraged me to think about so much. After our conversation I am working on learning to accept myself wholly and completely and be less critical of me, accepting and working with all of my flaws and foibles oh and freckles because, alliteration ya know…

Welcome to Season 2 of IGNITE YOUR SPARK! My truly shiny guest today is Kara Latta, the Playful Warrior. Isn't that name just the best?
Kara founded her company during Covid after a series of incidents leading to a rather "dark night of the soul". She lost her job, was dealing with health issues, healing from past childhood traumas and experienced a cockroach infestation - ugh! A therapist recommended she reconnect with her inner child and by doing so she rediscovered the power of play. She continued working on herself and received certifications in NLP, EFT and Hypnotherapy. Now she has combined all of her experience, her love of play and her natural gifts to work with others as a Play and Mindset Coach. I mean, really, who doesn't want more play in their life?
Kara's speciality is helping her clients reconnect to their own inner child through the power of play and subconscious reprogramming so they can embody and express their true self and create a life that excites them.
THIS will definitely IGNITE YOUR SPARK!
Thank you for tuning in and remember to share this podcast (if so inspired), comment and like.
Grateful for all of you....

My guest today is Faysal Abi whom I met because he was (and still is) a yoga teacher at my local studio. He is incredibly strong, kind, flexible and genuine. AND, when I met Faysal, he was a police officer as well as a yoga teacher.
Several years ago the Universe sent him a message in the form of a horrible car crash while on a high speed chase. Laid up with a concussion, back injury and more, he received the wake up call that perhaps he was meant to take his life purpose in a different direction.
He became all too familiar with the traditional approach to chronic pain and injury; pharmaceuticals, physical therapy and surgery. When that formula failed to provide any relief. Faysal began to study the human body's design, function and the mind body connection. Already a yoga instructor, he received certifications in massage therapy and posture alignment. Faysal pieced together a powerful approach to helping people with chronic pain or those simply looking to optimize their body by increasing their strength and flexibility.
Faysal is a full time body worker and posture alignment specialist who works with people the world over to help them reach their full potential.
Shine on in great health!

Sharon Caren is my guest today, and she is a fabulous Spiritual Coach. After a near death experience at the young age of 27, Sharon found herself on a spiritual journey of transformation. She studied the Akashic Records and by helping herself with her own transformation, realized that she could assist others on their journey by helping them receive new life tools to realize their unique gifts. Sharon is blessed to be able to assist others in clearing negative energies from their past that may be holding them back.
Today we talk about the Chakra system, another speciality in Sharon's spiritual and transformational toolbox. Her knowledge of the Chakra system is more in depth than any I’ve encountered, and today we take the beginning of a deep dive into these energy centers and how they assist us in connecting our spiritual self to our human self. You may even find that any stuck energies you are currently experiencing begin to get cleared after you listen to this conversation - because Sharon leads us through a short meditation to help us ground and connect.
If you happened to catch my last solo episode where I spoke about how all of my previous guests had a gratitude practice, well here is one more. Sharon says that nothing gives us more energy than gratitude. And gratitude is the frequency of abundance. Who doesn't want more abundance in their life?
If you go to Sharon's website you will find the link to get the free chakra guide that we speak of in the podcast, and it's very helpful!
Thank you all for listening. Hugs and gratitude for liking, subscribing and commenting on IGNITE YOUR SPARK!
Shine on !

Hello SPARKLERS, thanks for tuning in again!
Today is a solo episode because, well, I had computer issues and had to reschedule several guests. Full disclosure, I spilled water on my computer - and it was in the computer hospital for a week. Now back and better than ever!
My goal when I started this podcast was to publish one episode (at least) each week for a year. That's why I was determined to get an episode out to you, and thus, you get just me!
In this 20 minutes of Kim, I share 25 things I've learned, and not the wonderful things about my guests, that would take over 50 hours, but rather lessons learned and other tidbits. You'll just have to listen to see if any of them resonate with you, make you think, or ignite your spark!
As always thanks for tuning in. If you have suggestions about what YOU might like to explore to assist you in igniting your spark, feel free to reach out to me. If you are interested in something, chances are more of my listeners are as well.
I'm still in the running for the Fab over 40 contest, so if you want to cast your daily free vote, here is the link. https://votefab40.com/2021/kim-13
Sure do appreciate your votes, a spread in New Beauty Magazine to help me share the light with others and a substantial cash prize that would come in very handy!
SHINE ON!

Yes friends, Meditation is powerful. Now, you all who are listeners, probably know that. But do you practice? Meditation is key to balance, grounding and gaining the ability to handle what comes in a calm and less agitated manner. It's true....the science says so.
In this week's episode with Pam Seelig, we talk about how simple it is to meditate (haha, not for some of us). However, Pam navigated her way through Bells palsey years ago, with the practice of meditation. Leading a high stress job in Manhattan, in the financial arena, Pam found herself with her face half paralyzed. Through meditation she was able to discover what was really important to her, and spoiler alert, it wasn't the fast paced life she had been living and leading in NYC .
Meditation led her to the practice of yoga, and she eventually opened her own yoga studio. Now she has written a beautiful book, "Threads of Yoga: Themes, Reflections, and Meditations to weave into your practice. The book is great for anyone interested in a yoga practice or anyone who wants to lead a more fulfilled and grounded life.
Pam also teaches meditation via Zoom, since sometimes we need a nudge in the right direction!
I have vowed to renew a "real" meditation practice after speaking with Pam and hearing her calm and inspiring story. I hope she will ignite your spark to meditate as well.

I aspire to live a SIMPLE life, not as many things, clothes, junk.....but I don't really do it. My guest today is JoEllen, and she ignites my spark through her blog and instagram account.
JoEllen is the traveling minimalist mom on a mission - That mission is to prove that we can live a simple life without sacrificing beauty and style. I consider her more of a lifestyle guru though.
She and her husband and her 4 children have led a wanderlust lifestyle for the past 5 years. Meaning some of us lust after the lifestyle of world travel and living abroad that they have embraced. And more than that, JoEllen is a force for positivity. She finds joy and shares it every day.
JoEllen and her family had to downsize when they moved to New Zealand five years ago, getting rid of the big house, the furniture and all of the possessions we think we need. Then they pared everything down further when they travelled the world for a year. Six people lived out of 4 suitcases. She also learned to home school her children, not an easy task as those of you with kidlets know.
So let’s get to it shall we and hear about living a simpler life and so much more……here’s JoEllen.
Shine on!
And if you are enjoying my podcasts, I hope you are sharing your light with others. And meanwhile remember to like, comment and share IGNITE YOUR SPARK.....I appreciate you!

You are getting sleepy, very sleepy......when you think of hypnosis, doesn't that image just pop into your mind? It does for me, someone with a pocket watch swinging in front of your face.
However, I know that you, my listeners, are well aware that Hypnosis is so much more. In fact in this episode with Hypnotherapist Namrata Dagia, we learn the difference between hypnosis and hypnotherapy. I was not aware !
Namrata began her career as a trained Psychologist in India and decided to take a little course in hypnotherapy because it interested her. She loved it and totally saw the value it added for her clients. Fast forward a decade or so, and now Namrata not only works with clients using hypnotherapy and psychology, she also trains others in the modality.
In this episode we learn why people are not always willing to have a hypnotherapy session - fear of the unknown it turns out, and we learn how valuable it is to explore our subconscious. All our solutions to problems such as anxiety, insomnia or those habits we want to get rid of, are inside of us. Namrata helps us release and change our habits through hypnosis.
So if you are interested in changing an unwanted habit, or are just curious about the practice of hypnotherapy, you will enjoy this episode.....you are getting sleepy, very sleepy!
If you are getting sparks ignited and learning something from my podcast, I do hope you will share, comment and like......time to get sparks flying everywhere!
Shine on...

Ok, so math is not my strong suit, BUT I love numerology and what numbers can tell us. Numbers have energy, they carry a frequency and vibration that carry data and information, as I learned from my guest Dr. Felicia Bender. We all have many numbers which determine different facets of our life. Felicia tells us how to figure out our life path number (simple math!) and then she shares a little about each number's qualities.
We only go into the Life Path number because that is the number that determines our overarching life purpose (even if it may not always appear so when you listen to the description.) There are many more numbers in our "chart", such as your karmic debt number, your personality number, etc.
Who knew that Pythagoras - you know the theorem guy - had so much info about the energy of numbers and what they can reveal about our nature, life purpose and lessons we need to learn.
I guarantee everyone will learn a little more about themselves in this episode. Once you determine your number, you will want to listen carefully, stop, pause and rewind, to learn about yourself, your friends and family.
Felicia Bender is The Practical Numerologist who is devoted to helping people uncover their life's purpose - and so much more - with Numerology.
She is the author of Redesign Your Life: Using Numerology To Create The Wildly Optimal You as well as Master Numbers 11, 22, 33: The Ultimate Guide.
Felicia is the resident numerologist for AstroStyle.com and is featured in many media outlets, including Refinery 29, Women’s Health, elephant journal and more.

Who doesn't want to feel their optimal best? Haha, trick question because I know you all do.
Food gives us such joy - it nourishes our body, gives us strength and energy and has the power to heal us as well. However, we may be eating so-called healthy foods that cause inflammation in our bodies, leading to weight gain, aggravation of auto immune diseases, arthritis and more.
My guest today, Lyn-Genet Recitas discovered a ground breaking anti-inflammatory protocol and is the NYT best selling author of The Plan and The Metabolism Plan. She's been featured on many TV shows talking about this breakthrough. - Dr. Oz, NBC, CBS, etc. and in publications as well.
She has a staff of doctors and nutritionists who have helped hundreds of thousands of people, world wide, reach their best health by finding their chemical responses to food....not by counting calories.
Lyn-Genet is the CEO of her company, a sports nutritionist, NMT, Holistic Health Practitioner and yoga teacher.
We have such a great conversation about how everyone's response to food is different and we need to determine what causes inflammation in our own body in order to get our health in gear!
And if you live in, or near, Manhattan - you lucky person, you can visit her restaurant, Lyn-Genet's Kitchen and get some avocado fries. Ok, she serves more than that of course....

OK, well this was so much fun! I love a good story. As my guest today says, a good story will teach us something and we will be changed after hearing it.
Corey Rosen joins me on the podcast to talk about just that. Corey is a Bay Area celeb, having hosted over 105 live events for The Moth Story Slam in San Francisco and Berkeley. Fun fact - he won the first ever Bay Area Moth Story Slam in 2014.
He is an Emmy award winning writer, an actor and a visual effects editor and now author. He began his career at Lucas Films as a visual effects editor and worked on a few of our favorite films ie: Star Wars and Mission Impossible - Corey has performed with my favorite Improv Theatre center, BATS and has written for Comedy Central, Jim Henson Productions and Lucas Films. So yea, he's a cool guy and I was honored to have him on my podcast.
If you think you don't have a story, think again. We all have stories and at some point we may be called upon to share them. Whether preparing a toast for a wedding or other celebration, or simply sitting next to someone at a gathering, you may need to share a life snippet. We talk all about that and more in this engaging conversation.
Oh yes we also talk a. bit about Corey's new book. *Story, Well Told.

How good are you willing to let it get?
Not only is that an awesome and thought provoking question, it is also the name of my guest's new book and card deck.
Sarah Seidelmann is a 4th generation board certified physician turned shamanic healer, mother of 4, wife, author and life coach. Feeling unsatisfied in her career as a Surgical Pathologist, she searched for answers as to what was next for her during a sabbatical. Spending time in nature fueled her fire and her creative spirit. Finding inspiration in the art of decoupage and unleashing her creative nature via vintage cards featuring animals, Sarah found her way to the healing practice of Shamanism. As Sarah wandered through nature, she stumbled into the ancient idea that the wild animals that cross our path might have messages for us. Enter a walrus, an elephant and the inspiration for her six books.
I ask you again, HOW GOOD ARE YOU WILLING TO LET IT GET...tune in and see what you think.

My guest in shine is filled with light and shares it with everyone she encounters. Her journey has not been easy - diagnosed with Thyroid cancer in 2008, it came back in 2009, and again in 2010 and in 2017 came a stage 4 lung cancer diagnoses. Anna had three young children, was in a less than perfect marriage, was working full time and dealing with cancer. Going to the lipstick counters at her favorite stores was a way of coping. She would shop for a lipstick color that matched her mood. The lovely cosmetic ladies were her therapists.
Anna began a blog called The Lipstick Journey, turned it into a book and then created a company. She wanted to help other women feel not so alone through their cancer journey. It took longer than she thought to get the company up and running, and her positive attitude and ability to see life as a gift, came through for her. With the purchase of a lipstick she also donates one lipstick to a cancer thriver .
Anna inspires everyone on a daily basis, including her three grown children who are all doing remarkable things.
You will LOVE her.

You may already know the power of color and how different colors affect our mood. But there is so much more to the psychology of color and its impact on our environment. Today my guest in shine is Mehnaz Kahn, a color psychologist. Mehnaz assists people in creating an environment that supports them emotionally, physically, and psychologically.
Through a personality assessment, Mehnaz determines what shapes, colors and textures will work best in your home to assist you in achieving a state of well-being. She tells us that if you aren't productive chances are you have colors in your environment that crush your productivity. The same holds true for sleeplessness. If you don't have the right colors to support you in your bedroom then a good night's sleep is most likely out of the question.
It's a fascinating subject based on science! It's not about trends, it's about who you are as a person and what makes you truly shine!

Get ready for my guest Felicity who is a magical healing human. I prefer to think of her as a gifted “Fairy” put on this earth to heal others with her divine gifts. Felicity is based in Leeds in the United Kingdom and is the founder of Ookushana, an energy healing school.
Awakening to her gifts of healing from the unseen realms occurred when she tuned in to heal her own body and soul. Her work on earth is to help others connect to the healer they are. We all have unique gifts and when we access them through Felicity’s assistance, our truth and purpose will be revealed. Felicity is the true definition of a light-worker, as she helps bring to light all that prevents free-flowing energy within our bodies. We all have the ability to regain our innocence and find the true recipe for happiness. And yes, Felicity does this by helping us overcome any deep-rooted trauma, behaviors and ailments.
As a master Reiki practitioner and Teacher she incorporates the modality in her healing, along with her study of psychology and her use of light language. Having experienced her healing first-hand, Felicity does not provide a one size fits all approach to healing. She is part therapist, energy healer, best friend, listener extraordinaire and psychic goddess.
In this episode we explore the magic of light language, the importance of Cacao in ceremony, and how we all have the ability to heal ourselves.
Just by listening to Felicity’s beautiful voice, you will hear and feel her compassion and your healing will begin.

Deep faith keeps Amy going through grief, tragedy and adversity.
My beautiful and shiny guest today, Amy Berry has suffered many ups and downs, (perhaps more than many) and through the downslides in her life, Amy has found a way to honor and acknowledge her pain and move through the grief. We talk about what methods she uses to move forward and her spirit shines through the airwaves.
Amy is the best friend or big sister you need in your life. As a Wife, Mom to 3 boys, and dance fitness instructor she used to wonder if there was more to life than just sleepwalking through one day and into the next; so busy she didn't even notice where she was going. After enduring multiple traumas, Amy began searching for something more. She found a passion for inspiring and empowering women and created the Worthy Heart blog, believing that everyone is worthy of love.
Amy continued searching and learning and developed a four-step process to live The GOOD Life; focusing on God, Ourselves, Others, and Divine Happenings; which became the recently released The GOOD Life Journal. She firmly believes that by incorporating these four steps in our daily lives, everyone can have The GOOD Life and walk out their unique purpose boldly and confidently.
This episode is real and raw and Amy is a true inspiration to us all.

What a wonderful conversation I had with the ever so cool Cate Schultz. She has had many careers - French teacher, business owner, pilot, flight school owner, mother, life coach.....And now she has returned to what she loves - writing. Her first book was a work of fiction all about empowerment, titled Silent Sky. (I LOVED IT!)
Her newest book, is a gorgeous guide for personal growth. An A,B,C book for grownups which is meant to help us tune and transform our lives in manageable daily steps. It's a primer indeed, and of course I couldn't help but sing the memorable Jackson 5 song ABC during our conversation.
We talk about her various careers and how she discovered, while coaching others, that many people lacked the fundamental skills to help them find a trouble free life, and thus The Soul Primer, building blocks of the soul, was birthed.
I love people who re-invent themselves, especially those who do so because they truly want to help others. This is Cate!

Did you know that the vagus nerve, when compressed may be the cause of major problems in our bodies? Hey, we all want to shine and we need to feel our best to do so. Melanie Weller is my guest today and she is a Physical Therapist, Board certified Orthopedic specialist and an athletic trainer who has become the go to specialist for decompressing the vagus nerve.
A compressed vagus nerve limits many of our abilities, in particular our voice and ability to be in complete alignment. Melanie even shares stories of how she has cured knee pain by decompressing this important nerve in our body.
Melanie has worked with hundreds of people to help them find their voice, heal their bodies and find their purpose, all by assisting them with aligning and decompressing the vagus nerve. She gives an exercise to try and I've been doing it lately, it brings me great calm, and I really feel a difference. Hope you enjoy and try it as you listen.

Welcome back to another episode in shine. Today my guest is Jim Cusumano who has had quite the life and has journeyed through several “life purposes.” Jim was a teenage rockstar, literally traveling the world with his band. Then he went on into the world of education where he garnered a PHD in Physical Chemistry - knows all about quantum physics ( I can’t elaborate!), he has produced a major film, has started and led several successful Silicon Valley companies, is an author and now he and his wife own a Holistic Hotel in Prague. His latest book is the first in a series called “I Can See Clearly Now”, the rise of a supernatural hero. The book is what he calls “wisdom fiction”. I call it spiritual fiction - a book with meaning, fun, surprises, sort of a mystery - and an overall engaging read.
The most important message in the book is that we all need to find our true gifts, or what Jim calls our essence, and then share it with the world. Because life will be better if we find and follow our life purpose. Amen to that….I’m following my purpose of shining the light on those who are raising the vibration of the planet to help others shine their light. And you know what….it feels AWESOME!

Today's sparkly guest has helped thousands of people SHINE and communicate authentically. Bronwyn is the host of the very popular podcast, "Twenty minutes with Bronwyn". She has coached and inspired people to be their best on the TED stage as well as on American Idol and all stages in between. Bronwyn helps people communicate so they cast a spell, in the best possible way, in a manner that is completely authentic and unique to them.
Bronwyn tells us, "What I’ve discovered is that when we know how to shine, we know how to stand in our own power. But for too many of us, just making a point during a meeting, or voicing a dissenting opinion in book club causes our heart rates to rise... our palms to sweat. And getting up to a microphone to give a keynote? Certain death."
We laugh and chat and Bronwyn makes me SHINE!
If you enjoy this and my other podcasts, I do hope you will rate, subscribe, comment and SHARE....let's light up the world with our own unique brand of SHINE!

Sarah Loomis is a personal trainer, nutritionist and spark igniter for her wellness clients. Realizing that she was missing something even though she was doing all the health and wellness things we are supposed to do to feel good, she set out on a journey to ignite her own spark through taking a deep dive into what really made her glow. It wasn't a one size fits all remedy of weight lifting and a smoothie here and there. Sarah rediscovered herself through meditation and reflection, through time alone, and self-development.
Now Sarah brings a total wellness package to each of her clients. No cookie cutter programs here. Her clients come to her because they have been on a fitness journey doing all the "right" things but still found something was missing. Sarah goes further than diet and exercise alone and really works with people to bring awareness to what is truly going on in their life. She is a life, fitness and nutrition coach all rolled into one.
I love how she tells us to eat the foods that make you feel good before, during and after consuming. Sure we know processed foods are not good for us, but Sarah realizes we may just want that cookie or chip, and that's ok.....just eat it with a fruit or vegetable (in moderation of course).
Her message is powerful and she is so passionate about helping others really feel their best inside and out. One of her clients told her about a new segment on Sesame Street called, I wonder...What if...Let's Try ....and that fits her methodology perfectly. You will see....
If you enjoy this episode I hope you will subscribe, rate it (five stars would be awesome) and share with your friends. Comments always appreciated as well. Let's share the light!

In order to fully Ignite our Sparks, we need to be as healthy as possible to live a joy filled and radiant life. Amber helps us do that.
Today's podcast fills me with healing joy just writing this. Amber Bodily is a master Foot Zoner and truly amazing human and healer who has trained in a variety of healing modalities to help tens of thousands of people. She began her journey when her first son was a baby and suffering from autism and a host of other ailments. Traditional medicine was not working, so Amber found foot zoning and subsequent relief and healing for her son. She dove head first into this unique from of healing particularly after her second son was diagnosed with tumors on his brain in utero. She immediately trained in Foot Zoning, which is a study of the signal systems of the feet - "like reflexology on steroids" and went on to complement this with the study of the body through anatomy, herbology, aromatherapy and more. She teaches others the art of foot zoning, face zoning, back zoning and holds classes to help us find our inner Goddess Glow and so much more.
Amber helps rebalance, rejuvenate, detox and raise the life energy in her client's bodies. She ignites the healing within us. A fascinating approach to healing ourselves. We hope you enjoy this episode to heal and ignite your spark.

Sydney is a remarkable young woman, or rather an old soul in a young person’s body. Although we are decades apart in age, our message and mission in and to the world is in total alignment. Sydney is the host of the successful podcast” Seek the Joy Podcast”and is a practicing attorney- when she isn't interviewing amazing guests on all things joyful. Her desire is to uplift and empower others to find their authentic voice, encourage them to step into their vulnerability and courage, all to see their joy and bring about a better world. I couldn't agree more! We need to find and light our inner spark for more joy within ourselves in order to share that light to bring about a better world. We discuss connection, lessons learned during the past year, and give each other a lot of mutual admiration. She is truly lovely, and I know you will enjoy her podcast so very much.

Jenny Diehl is my delightful guest on this episode. She is the founder and love curator of an online holistic store called Cura.Te (meaning cure yourself in Latin). Inspired to live a healthy and disease free life after the passing of her Mother at a young age (from early onset Alzheimer's Disease) Jenny set about learning to live a toxic free life. After her Mom passed, Jenny took a deep dive into holistic medicine and became a certified practitioner. After years of researching some of the causes of degenerative diseases, she realized that so many things we were putting into and onto our bodies were indeed harmful for us. She morphed her family into a plant based diet and started making her own soaps and cleaners that were toxin free. She joined with a Chinese herbalist as well and has created a host of medicinal herb teas and blends to help our bodies heal naturally. Having tried some of her products, I can totally attest to the fact that they work wonders.

Heard talk of how we are truly entering the Fifth Dimension? And is the Age of Aquarius upon us? Sure we know the song, but now is the time to raise our vibrations and soar. Angel explains what entering the 5th dimension means, raising our consciousness by owning our individuality. It's time to acknowledge our relationship to the divine, to truly access who we were meant to be, to leave petty thoughts and ways of being behind and evolve. Angel asks, are you willing to question everything that's being told to you in order to move forward into a better way of being?
Angel is a business coach, founder of Life Path Astrology and a 5D activist. She created her online presence as The Holistic Fashionista and has mentored thousands of holistic leaders around the globe, helping them discover their life path and build their own soul-based e-commerce businesses. Her mission is to raise the frequency of the earth! She publishes a twice yearly beautiful print magazine, creates elixers which she sells through her spiritual pharmacy to assist in healing and tells us the 5th dimension isn't just a 70's song with a good beat, it's actually the integration of your soul with the divine and that integration is a dance.

Anyone ever felt stuck in an area of life and just couldn't move past it? Traditional therapy and coaching didn't work? Well here's a new way of helping you get unstuck, (well new to me at least), and it's called Family Constellations. My guest Liza Miron has been working with people for 15 years to help them grow, develop and connect to a higher level of awareness to assist them in enjoying the life they deserve and living it to the fullest. One of the methods of coaching that she uses is called Family Constellations. She helps you connect to ancestral blockages that have been passed on and often create negative patterns or ways of being. By discerning these patterns, she is able to assist you in "unblocking" unseen reasons that may keep you from finding a partner, starting a family, getting the job you desire and more. Through group or one on one sessions Liza helps you move on. Listen in as she shares how Family Constellations works as a therapeutic healing method.

Having suffered from many health issues throughout her life including a 20 year struggle with Lyme disease and many surgeries for a hole in her heart, Amanda finally discovered relief when she encountered a magical masseuse who utilized Reiki in her hands on approach. Amanda and her husband went on to experience much relief from the Lyme disease from which they both suffered. Thus they launched their own educational journey to help heal others and now use Reiki, Biomagnetic Pair Therapy, and holistic treatments to assist those suffering with chronic illnesses and other health challenges.
Having experienced my own Reiki treatment with Amanda, I can absolutely attest to the amazing benefits I received. I had been feeling low energy, a few chronic issues had flared up and after one session with Amanda, I was so much lighter and energetic. I simply took a nap while she worked her healing magic on me from a distance. I know this sounds like a yelp review, but she is truly amazing!

Astrology is not just horoscopes found in newspapers. The stars and their alignment at our birth gave us special gifts and talents indicative of no one else but US. Evolutionary astrologer Tara Martello works with people's birth charts to guide them to access their unique gifts and talents. She encourages us to live with compassion and accept all the parts of us which were divinely bestowed upon us. Through her own intense spiritual awakening and transformation, Tara faced her shadow sides and learned that unity and wholeness come through diving deeply inward. Her own process of self-discovery led her to realize that through empowerment each of us can operate from our own unique soul blueprint. She helps us access our abilities, accept them and move forward so that we can live our most authentic life and unique soul purpose.
