I am love, I am in my heart, I am listening. In this episode, Holly interviews Juha Riverhill, spiritual teacher from Finland. Juha's inspiration comes from a lifetime of difficulties, from being bullied as a child to a tumultuous divorce in his later years. out of the worst moment of his life. A difficult divorce, overwhelm of the aftermath and the whisper from his spirit guide, Cecelia, led him to channel/write his book, The Golden Book of Humanity. Questions Holly and Juha explore include: • How did you come to the understanding of spirit guides? • What is something that you may be resisting in your life that gives you an opportunity to find a greater guide in your own life? • Where do you start and how can you implement a sense of curiosity in your daily life? • How can we ponder and practice the mantra I am love, I am in my heart, I am receiving? • The Divine approached Juha in many ways from the time he was a child. He asked to be shown the way to communicate on a deeper level with his spirit guides. • During a time in Paris, his time with Cecelia and other guides gained clarity and understanding the gifts they could help him bring to the world. He set a goal of becoming a spiritual teacher. Coming from a Christian background, he always had an understanding of the Holy Spirit, but he came to crave more of a spiritual exploration to a connection with unconditional love. He found this by bringing his living from his head to living in his heart. Through this it fulfilled an aching heart and created a raised vibrational state of sending and receiving perfect unconditional love with his life. Find out more about Juha's book here.

A New view on ROI (Return in Intention) Holly interviews Jane Stevenson, Managing Director of Magnetic Minds in South Africa. The two shared a connection through stories that flowed together on stage at a South Africa conference in 2019.  As the managing director of Magnetic Minds, Jane’s company helps reframe mindfulness in ways that serve organizations in planning for their teams goals and future big picture. Her purpose: Finding True North. Personalized business solutions that equip leaders and teams to magnify results and impact. Magnetic Minds brings teams together to help them shift their mindsets in safe spaces to have conversations about where they want their teams to go.  Some of the questions that Holly and Jane unpack are: How do conversations within ourselves magnetize the right people to us?  Who am I?  Why does success in business not feel like success in my heart? Are you showing up and following the plan that you committed to? What is your purpose on earth? Am I winning? How to Reframe what success means - no more winners or losers. We are all wanting to feel like more than just the jobs that we do. We tend to focus on our jobs as the centers of our lives, but is this the most mindful way to live?  Purpose is far bigger than profit! Jane mentions Elan Musk and his opening up his intellectual property to the world, and how his example of sustainability over profit is the perfect example of living with purpose.  Collaboration brings a much higher influence than working alone and in isolation. Holly and Jane discuss global challenges such as violence against women. More questions that they address are:   How can we use the negative stories and build purpose driven collaboration around these?  What are we doing to affect change?  How do we become part of the solutions?  How could anger create the answer? Sometimes we need anger to move into a state of brilliant action. Jane actually uses Holly’s book, Everyday Mindfulness, https://www.amazon.com/Everyday-Mindfulness-Chaos-Crazy-World-ebook/dp/B07KDVFL8S/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=everyday+mindfulness+holly+duckworth&qid=1576620104&sr=8-1 as one of her tools to give herself a framework for setting daily intentions.  Jane leaves listeners with “Don’t ever think of it as a failure, but as a revelation of how to not do things in the future.” Find out more about Jane’s work at http://www.magneticminds.co.za/ or email her at jane@magneticminds.co.za Learn more about your ad choices.

Justin pronounces that “Nature kills pretense!” These times are causing people to really examine what is really important. He also shares his belief that consciousness is the space between thoughts and feelings and YOU, your true self.

This involved three things to ask yourself: 1.    When you react to something ask yourself “is that true? “Don’t trust your thoughts and feelings completely. Listen to them, but don’t trust them completely. 2.    What are you feeling called to do, or action to take, that you haven’t been called to do before? 3.    What is something you can’t go back to?

He started posting his daily devotionals and gained a following Luck and hope is not a business plan. Along with his daily devotional, he has a to do list that he’s kept since he was twelve years old. Social media has become an avenue for him to express himself – if you see four guys in a meeting, three in suits and one in jeans and flip flops – he’s the one with the money. He rides his bike around Miami to meetings. He prays with those he meets with. Known as Pistol Peet, even the homeless community leans on Peter to bring smiles and connection. Peter looks back at his life and asks “What did I miss? What would I have done differently?” And, responds, “I wish I would have danced more. He wishes he’s spent more time with his family, church and friends. He built 377 stores in a year! He was able to hire the right talent and get them to stay in their lanes. He has used the same systems and processes over the years and they have worked successfully whether he was opening 5 stores a month or 377 a year. Peter started working out when he was thirteen and just never stopped. He manages his weight and body fat and can do more pullups today than when he was in his twenties! You really miss something when we equate success to money. Balance and presence is the key to success. Peter gives 10% of his profits in his CBD sales to charity.
