In this compelling episode, we delve into the inspiring journey of Olivier Mankondo, whose battle with severe health issues led him on a life-altering quest for transformation. Raised in the Republic of Congo, Olivier’s lifestyle and eating habits drastically differed from those he encountered moving to the UK. It was during this shift that he began to struggle, facing health challenges that left him feeling lost and desperate for answers.

His story is even more potent because of how his health crisis became the catalyst for a more profound, introspective journey. Olivier didn’t just accept the pain or the limitations of his condition. Instead, he chose to question everything—his daily habits, his mindset, his diet—and began making what some might call radical changes. These decisions were not easy or quick fixes, but they ultimately saved his life.

The transformation was profound. From a man who felt trapped by his body and uncertain about his future, Olivier blossomed into a vibrant, healthy individual who now exudes physical and mental confidence. He didn't just heal his body; he nurtured his mind and soul, reimagining how he lives, eats, and thinks. Today, he’s a picture of vitality and self-assurance, a testament to the power of taking control of one's health journey, no matter the obstacles.

This episode is a powerful reminder that even in the face of a health crisis, we can reinvent ourselves, challenge old habits, and cultivate a life filled with vitality and soul purpose. It’s a conversation full of wisdom, resilience, and inspiration that will leave listeners rethinking their approach to health, wellness, and life.

Welcome back to part two of our exploration of forgetfulness! In our last episode, Dr. Judith shared insightful perspectives on how forgetfulness manifests in our lives and what it might mean for our soul-spiritual growth. If you haven’t heard that episode yet, I highly recommend listening to it. Today, we’re going even deeper into why remembering is just as crucial as forgetfulness and how it relates to the soul's purpose.

Dr. Judith takes us on a transformative journey, urging us to shake off forgetfulness and start actively remembering. Why? Because our souls need us to remember to thrive truly. As we learned before, forgetfulness is not just a random occurrence but a signal that something deeper may be at play. But what happens when we let these forgetful moments define us? According to Dr. Judith, it can feel like we're stuck in an endless cycle—almost like the movie Groundhog Day, where we go through the motions of life, unaware of the bigger picture until an awakening jolts us into action.

Imagine living your life on autopilot, disconnected from your higher purpose, until something happens that forces you to stop and reflect. Dr. Judith explains that each of us has specific soul lessons to learn, and if we don't pay attention, we can miss those vital lessons and repeat the cycle. But when we start to remember—when we tap into the deep wisdom of our souls—we can break free from the mundane and evolve into the magnificent beings we were meant to be.

To illustrate this, Dr. Judith shares a powerful story about an eagle that spent its life living with chickens. Despite its majestic potential, the eagle was unaware of its true nature and lived like the chickens around it. One day, it awakened that it was meant to soar high above, not peck at the ground with the chickens. The message? We all have the potential to soar like eagles, but first, we must remember who we are and honor the lessons that life is offering us.

Dr. Judith encourages us to use our time wisely. Life is too precious to sleepwalk through. If we want to live with purpose, evolve, and thrive, we need to pay attention, honor the lessons we're being taught, and embrace the spiritual evolution waiting for us. So, in this episode, we’ll discuss how to make that shift from forgetfulness to remembrance. How do we learn to fly like eagles? How can we start seeing and understanding the soul’s more profound call?

Prepare for a rich conversation about unlocking your soul’s potential, breaking out of the cycle of forgetfulness, and stepping into the freedom that comes with genuinely remembering who you are. The soul waits for you to remember—to pay attention, learn, and evolve.

Let’s get started on this enlightening journey together. Stay tuned!

We’re diving into something we all experience: forgetfulness. It might seem like just a small, occasional lapse in memory, but have you ever stopped to consider the impact forgetfulness could have on your soul and your spiritual progress? Forgetfulness isn't just about misplacing your keys or forgetting what you were doing mid-sentence—this is something that touches all of us. In fact, roughly 100 million people in the U.S. and a staggering 2.4 billion people globally experience these moments of forgetfulness.

Now, we’re not talking about dementia or more serious memory disorders here. Forgetfulness, as a natural part of life, happens to everyone, and it can even become more frequent than we might care to admit. So, why is it important to think beyond the surface of those small memory lapses? What if these forgetful moments are not just a minor nuisance but a signal of something deeper within us—something spiritual or soulful?

In this episode, Dr. Judith takes us on a thought-provoking journey, using two insightful acronyms to explore the nature of forgetfulness and its spiritual implications. The first acronym, FORGE, delves into the core of why we forget certain things, how it affects our daily lives, and its potential impact on our soul and inner well-being. The second acronym, LIGHT, she calls a superpower, offers us a potential solution, a way to work through these moments of forgetfulness in a way that nurtures our soul and spiritual growth.

Dr. Judith also introduces us to a fresh perspective on how we can think about our forgetfulness—not as a simple inconvenience, but as a part of a larger spiritual process. What other factors might be contributing to our forgetful moments? And how can this affect our spiritual and soul progress? These are the critical questions we need to reflect on to better understand ourselves and our relationship with memory, mindfulness, and growth.

So, if you've ever wondered how forgetfulness could be tied to your soul's journey, this episode is for you. Get ready for a deep, informative, and transformative conversation that will help you see forgetfulness in a whole new light—no pun intended!

Stay tuned as we explore the FORGE and LIGHT approaches and uncover practical ways to nurture our souls through life's little memory lapses. Let’s get started!

In this powerful episode, we welcome back Karen DeLoach to explore the transformative journey from "Child Shame to Adult Gain." More children than we realize carry the heavy weight of shame—whether from physical, emotional, or sexual abuse or the pain of feeling abandoned. But how do we heal these wounds and help the soul rediscover its true purpose, connection, and affection? An experienced art teacher, Karen shares her deep insights into how creativity and the arts can unlock profound healing.

Karen takes us on a journey into the neuroscience of art—how engaging in creative activities can physically rewire the brain, leading to emotional and psychological healing. She shares her inspiring work with children in Uganda, where she used art to help them process trauma and rediscover their joy. Through the power of creativity, children (and adults) can connect with their gifts and tap into a more profound sense of self-worth. As Karen says, “Art isn't just about making something beautiful; it’s about making yourself whole.”

Drawing from years of experience working with people from all walks of life, Karen discusses how creative expression can be a bridge to a stronger relationship with our Creator, banishing shame and replacing it with joy. This episode is a testament to the profound power of the arts to heal, transform, and bring people back to themselves. If you’ve ever felt disconnected or burdened by past trauma, Karen’s wisdom will inspire you to embrace your path and soul to healing and joy.

Unlock the creative genius within you! This episode explores the idea that creativity isn't reserved for the chosen few—it's a gift everyone can tap into. My incredible guest, Karen DeLoach, dispels the myth that creativity is elusive and reveals how we can access it. Together, we explore what holds us back from embracing our creative potential, sharing powerful insights from Karen's experiences.

Discover how engaging the "right brain" (spoiler: it's not just the right brain, but your whole mind) can lead to healing, joy, and inspiration—benefits that are good for your soul. Karen also shares a brilliant quote from Einstein: “Creativity is intelligence having fun!”

We delve into the magic of neuro doodles, how creativity can heal children with learning disabilities like ADHD and dyslexia, and the power of art to create safe spaces for personal growth. Karen even shares her vision of a Coop School where children thrive through the arts, free from judgment and full of possibility.
