“You have to allow the messiness and the struggle.” - East Forest Today's guest, East Forest is one of my all-time favorite musicians and a kindred creator. His music has been the soundtrack to many of my magic mushroom journeys and in this interview, we talk about the ins and outs of creativity, healing, and mindset. After a difficult childhood plagued with depression, East Forest started using psychedelics and making music for other people on psychedelic journeys. He maintains that you have to allow the messiness and the struggle to unleash your creative potential. We touch on many key questions surrounding music and psychedelics, like how to create music that can accompany a psychedelic trip, which instruments he uses for his albums, and how to unlock your creativity. We also answer some questions that have been nagging me for a long time, like why psychedelic ceremonies so often begin with percussion. Listen in to this episode as he and I discuss the line between commerce and art, why we need to take back control of our consciousness, and how music informs psychedelics journeys.

“Whose story was I living?” - Blu Today's guest on Onken Radio is Blu, a friend I met at Arkana who is defying expectations at every turn. Blu also goes by Blu Cosmic Eagle and she served in the Royal Air Force before trying magic mushrooms for the first time and starting her journey as a curious mystic. When she learned that she would gradually lose her hearing due to an incurable hereditary disorder, she bought a guitar and went traveling with it. Now an accomplished musician, Blu had to work through her own shifting identity alchemy to reach the point she's at today where she sees her hearing loss as an invitation to listen deeper. She encourages others to turn their traumas own into their greatest gifts in her recent TEDx Talk where she shares the amazing story of how she moves through the world. In this episode, Blu explains what it looks like to live to blow your own mind. We also discuss what it was like for Blu to lose her hearing, the difference between prayer and performance, and why she wants everything in her life to be beautiful.

“Our ego is our teammate.” - Nick Onken A few weeks ago, I explained that I am developing a new process to help entrepreneurs build their personal brands. Today we’re diving deeper into this concept of identity alchemy. I want to share with you how I lost myself in my work and eventually found my self-worth in my identity. How do we become who we want to be in this world? What’s our message and our legacy? These are important questions to ask when we begin the process of detaching ourselves from our work. Our self-worth cannot stem from our jobs, so how do we redirect it? Early on in my business as a photographer, I had to contend with professional ebbs and flows and learn how to navigate social media. I booked huge campaigns before losing out on other gigs for months at a time. I battled depression. I second-guessed myself. And then I found my self-worth in an arena that was completely separate from my work and I used the process of identity alchemy to do it. Listen in to this episode as I discuss the process of detaching yourself self-worth from your identity, how to rebuild your self-worth, and what action steps I took right before my career took off.

207: Detaching Your Self Worth From Your Identity

“I have made a conscious decision to evolve without pain.” - Maejor Hello, my friends! Welcome to another episode of the Onken Radio podcast (previously NION Radio), the podcast where we explore the body, mind, and soul of the creative entrepreneur. It’s my goal to help you take your creativity, business, and life to the next level. I’m so glad you’re joining me on this journey! Today, I’m excited about my special guest and music master, Maejor. I really wanted to have him on because he is all about frequency and healing the world through frequency in his music. He’s produced albums and songs for Justin Bieber and is also a leukemia survivor. All these things have given him a unique perspective on life, making him a great guest to talk to about the alchemy of life. We will also share with you his mission to heal the world through frequency by creating all of his music in 432 Hertz and other healing frequencies.  Here’s a quick taste of what’s to come from my interview with Maejor: “I believe this year has been a rebirth in many ways for myself [and] for a lot of people. How can I use this moment in this time in the best way to give love? I’ve made a conscious decision now to evolve without pain.” - Maejor Maejor is a quality guy who feels deeply connected and has the greatest heart. In my opinion, I think most people that reach his level of success live in a different world — one that’s not tapped into what most people experience. What I really appreciate about Maejor is he’s still tapped in and because of that is challenging his own creativity to be a light in the world for healing.  Who Is Maejor? Brandon Michael Green, known by his stage name Maejor, is an American record producer, singer, and songwriter from Detroit, Michigan. Maejor has written and produced songs for several prominent artists in the music industry — most extensively Justin Bieber — and is half of the EDM (Electronic Dance Music) duo Area21 alongside Dutch DJ Martin Garrix.  In honor of Maejor’s grandmother, Edna Mae, who passed away, he used her name in the spelling of Maejor because of the closeness of their relationship and her impact on his life.  Maejor has been producing music from the age of 17, and it’s been his focus ever since.  “I always had a vision that I was going to do something very positive and impactful for the world — I don’t know where that came from. I just had that thought when I was a kid.” - Maejor As Maejor’s career progressed, big names started noticing him in the industry. Part of his vision for making an impact in the world was to create centers that teach underprivileged kids music. However, this plan always felt like something “down the line” that he was going to do. The success in his twenties led him to rapidly build on the momentum he was creating until he was dealt a devastating blow. “I got leukemia when I was in my twenties. [I thought] ‘Whoa, this is pretty crazy — what does that mean?’ I never [even] knew that word, I never [even] knew what that was. My timeline switched [from] ‘something I’m going to do [in] 20 years’ to ‘who knows [if] I’m going to be around [in] 20 years?’ What could I do now?” - Maejor Maejor’s second chance has given him a different perspective on life and how to create an impact in the world using his music. It’s a great honor to bring you his story and dive into the creative process that he’s developed. Maejor’s connectedness to the world we live in and journey through spirituality made this a magical interaction. Let’s jump straight in! How to Remain Present The past year has created chaos in most people’s lives, and while it’s easy to say things like “Be more present,” putting that into practice when the world feels like it’s collapsing around us is another story. Maejor shares how he remains present and what he does to create space to hear messages tapping him from the universe.  “One thing that’s helping me is a regular meditation practice.

206: Maejor – Healing the World Through Music Frequency

“I have made a conscious decision to evolve without pain.” - Maejor I’m at the beach with Maejor and today we’re talking about his journey of healing and moving through the darker times. He started working in the music industry at 17 years old and, from a young age, he always knew he wanted to make an impact on the world. Then he was diagnosed with leukemia in his 20s and his whole timeline changed. People are going through a lot right now and Maejor's words are a good reminder that it’s okay to be on your own frequency. He even says that with the right mindset this pandemic can be a blessing in disguise. He shares his journey to communicate with fewer words, how he made the first mainstream sound healing album, and the correlation between frequency, light, and sound. Listen in as Maejor shares why it’s a good time for growth, how to heal the world through frequency, and how Nikola Tesla influences his work.

204: Eleven – Transitioning to Non-Binary

“The idea is to align your identity with your optical brand.” - Nick Onken Today, I will be talking about something that I have spoken a lot about lately. It’s a new process I am developing to help entrepreneurs build their personal brands. This process is really applicable to life, and it directly correlates with everything that I have been going through personally over the last few years. Hello, my fellow earthlings, and welcome back for another episode of the ONKEN RADIO (previously NION Radio) podcast, where we explore the worlds of creativity, consciousness, and everything else in between. Identity Alchemy is the topic of the day, and I am breaking it down so that we all can learn and use this process to change our lives. I am a photographer who has been building brands for almost 15-20 years now. What I have learned through that creative process is that there is something that I am applying to help people tell their visual stories and build their brands. People want real authenticity, and the story you are telling the world is what needs to resonate. The identity alchemy piece comes in to tell a personal story that is authentic to who you are. I know that your mind is brimming with questions, but rest assured — through this solo episode, my mission is to help you live a life of creativity. This is the kind of creative alchemy that my entire work and life are focussed around, and I want you to make the most of my learning and observation. I am glad to be a part of your creative journey, and I hope you find your full potential. Understanding the Alchemy of Identity Deconstruct-Curate-Become: Identity alchemy can be summed up by this three-step process: the deconstruction of the self, the curation of the new version of yourself, and then becoming who that is, becoming your authentic self. Because people, they love authenticity and that’s what keeps them coming back to you. Have you ever had an encounter with someone in real life, someone you followed and admired, and when you finally met them in person, you realized that they are nothing at all like their online persona? I personally find this a weird thing. I want to meet people who are putting out content online that directly aligns with who they are, and that demands the process of identity alchemy. The truth is that most entrepreneurs struggle with sharing themselves online, and they experience imposter syndrome. I, too, feel imposter syndrome often; it’s really hard to align your identity with your brand. But if done right, the exposure naturally attracts opportunities and audiences while creating alignment and authenticity.  Cleaning up the process, creating congruence between who you are, your message, and the content that you are putting out there into the world — this is the process of identity alchemy. Constantly throughout our lives, we are shape-shifting into new identities. You go through something in life, and then that incident reshapes you a little however you allow it to. The idea is to start a deconstructing process to perform the alchemy of transmuting that energy, that ill-feeling inside you, into something beautiful, but that takes deep work and different modalities. We all have the choice to do that, and I promise you will be in a much better place on the other side. Curate Your Story and Imbibe It in Your Personal Brand There are some hard questions that we all must ask ourselves — Who do we want to be? What type of narratives and values do we want to live with? What kinds of beliefs do we want to have? Then, we use our answers to curate the future. Use the narrative to become the identity that you envision for yourself. You can play any character you want in the world, as long as you resonate with it naturally. All of us create the world around us. We create the world that we want to live in as we think the world revolves around us. You think a thought, take action on it, and then you start creating from it.

203: What is Identity Alchemy?

“The idea is to align your identity with your optical brand.” - Nick Onken As you may know, we’re in the process of creating an identity alchemy course, so in this episode, we're going to break it down. What is it? How do we use it in our daily lives? How does it play a role in our personal business or brand? At its core, identity alchemy is the deconstruction of the self, then the curation of the new version of the self, and finally becoming who that is. Once you understand the three parts of this process, you can use them to help you build your personal brand and tell your story authentically. Listen in as I explain why building a personal brand is important, how to build a personal brand, and how brands can connect with their audience.
