Conversations about spirituality from a holistic mind — faith, meaning, consciousness, inner life, purpose, and the questions that shape how we live.
In this conversation, Philipp Kobald speaks with Dr. Madelaine Gomes MsC.D — a doctor of metaphysical science, pranic healer, and former corporate director based in Cape Town, South Africa. They explore what happens when high-performing professionals lose themselves inside the roles they play, how ancestral patterns keep entire families stuck in cycles of shame and blame, and whether forgiveness is the missing key to building a lighter future.
We discuss:
• The spiritual landscape of South Africa — its cultural diversity, the role of Christianity, and how spirituality differs from religion in practice
• Why executives burn out by serving from an empty cup and taking on the personality of their role instead of leading from purpose
• How one HR director in France transformed his leadership style and team performance by shifting from perfectionism to compassion
• Whether compassion can function even in brutal business settings like foreclosure law
• The I Am Possible program — rebuilding identity from the roots up through belief systems, self-esteem, heart healing, and conscious communication
• Ancestral patterns as both inherited wisdom and inherited emotional burden — and why repeating the cycle is a choice
• The tension between keeping healing work intuitive versus standardizing it for wider reach
Main Takeaways
When people lose connection to their own purpose and serve only a professional role, the mind, body, and soul fall into a void that medication alone cannot fill.
Shame and blame sit at the lowest end of the consciousness scale — no forward movement is possible while trapped there.
The heart speaks through the voice and cannot lie, which makes conversational healing a direct path to where someone is truly stuck.
Each generation has the opportunity to stop inherited cycles of anger and resentment — but only through conscious forgiveness and the willingness to become a pathfinder rather than a pattern repeater.
Quotes
"As we wake up and become more aware, we can actually stop that cycle. We can say, 'You know what? That didn't make me feel good, so I'm not gonna do that to somebody else.' That already is the start of a change." — Dr. Madelaine Gomes
"You see a lot of these managers are burning from an empty heart." — Philipp Kobald

Conversations about spirituality from a holistic mind — faith, meaning, consciousness, inner life, purpose, and the questions that shape how we live.
In this conversation, Philipp Kobald speaks with Glenn Aparicio Parry, professor, writer, and founder of the SEED organization, about love, spirituality, Indigenous wisdom, nature, politics, and his book Original Love.
About this conversation:
Glenn spent over twenty years running dialogue circles that brought Native American elders and Western scientists together, rooted in the discovery that quantum physics had outgrown the English language. His trilogy — Original Thinking, Original Politics, and Original Love — traces a single thread: reconnecting to origin as a place rather than a point in time.
Together, Philipp and Glenn discuss:
Why Indigenous peoples heard "original thought" as an invitation to connect to origin as a place, while Westerners tried to invent something brand new
How Western culture replaced place with time and the consequences of fixating on prediction and control
The myth of Psyche and Eros and how allies in the natural world solve impossible tasks
Why the word "love" has been abused by proselytizers who stripped away languages, lands, and cultures
David Bohm's difficulty describing quantum physics in English and Native languages built on verbs and process
Carl Jung's 1924 visit to Taos Pueblo and the challenge to look to Indigenous wisdom at home
The Black Apache story of the old woman, the tapestry, and the trickster dog — political disruption as catalyst
Main Takeaways
Love is not manufactured: It is a pre-existing cosmic vibration that moves through us when we are humble enough to receive it.
Foods that grow together: They taste together — the origin of cuisine and a metaphor for partnership with nature at every level.
In a representational republic: Politicians reflect the people; their shadow is partly our own.
Philipp's appeal: The spiritual wisdom of Native America is at your doorstep and embracing it could begin deeper healing.
Quotes
"Write from your heart, the personal becomes the universal. You can't... somebody who puts their market ahead of their own thinking write a not necessarily contrived book, but a very carefully calculated book." — Glenn Aparicio Parry
"If America heals, the world heals. I mean, this is how it is." — Philipp Kobald
About our Guest:
Glenn Aparicio Parry is a writer and professor who taught at the California Institute of Integral Studies, where he also earned his master's and doctorate. He founded and ran the nonprofit SEED for twenty years, facilitating dialogue circles between Native American elders and Western scientists — a tradition that began in 1992 when Leroy Little Bear approached physicist David Bohm. Glenn is the author of Original Thinking, Original Politics, and Original Love, and lives in Placitas, New Mexico, among wild horses, coyotes, and mountain lions.

Episode: In this episode of Holistic Circle, Philipp Kobald sits down with Anna Saqqara and Katie Player, Priestesses of Avalon and elders of the Glastonbury Goddess Temple, to explore why thousands are drawn back to goddess-centered, Earth-rooted spirituality and what that return looks like in practice.
They describe a hunger for embodied spirituality, connection to land, and a reclaimed sacred feminine that restores wholeness for all genders.
What we discuss
Glastonbury Avalon's ancient significance and ley lines; the seasonal wheel of the year as a living calendar; daily life in the Goddess Temple — blessings, ceremonies and open sacred space; why the movement is spreading internationally and how priestesses reconnect with local goddesses; the distinction between power-within and power-over; shadow work as reclaiming hidden power; and the interplay of science, shamanic knowledge and frequencies.
Glastonbury Avalon as a spiritual center and convergence of ley lines.
Seasonal wheel holding people through change and uncertainty.
Temple life: blessings, ceremonies, healing and open sacred space.
International growth via non-colonial priestess training and return to local goddesses.
Power-within vs power-over in ceremonial practice.
Shadow work as reclaiming hidden power.
Science and shamanism: what lies beyond current understanding.
Main Takeaways
Rebalancing, not anti-masculine: The return to the goddess restores what patriarchy removed from everyone, including men.
Seasonal structure: The wheel of the year grounds people in time and place amid digital fragmentation.
Non-colonial expansion: Priestesses train in Glastonbury then research and connect with their own land's goddesses.
Embrace of darkness: Accepting imperfection turns death into composted richness for the next harvest.
Quotes
"In reclaiming what's traditionally seen as feminine, it's also about giving back to men things that have been taken from them by the patriarchy so that we can all live the fullness of who we are." — Katie Player
"Whenever I hear that social media is connecting people, I know it is completely disconnecting people. That's how marketing works. We always sell the complete opposite." — Philipp Kobald
About our Guest
Anna Saqqara and Katie Player are Priestesses of Avalon and long-standing elders of the Glastonbury Goddess Temple in Somerset, England.
Both are healers from the Goddess House who teach and hold ceremonies rooted in the seasonal wheel. Katie is a storyteller, poet and tarot teacher. Anna works with visionary shamanism and energy healing and has researched goddess traditions in Hungary and Turkey.

In this episode of Holistic Circle, Philipp Kobald sits down with Rev. Ryan Wiksell, Episcopal priest and co-author of The Last Seder of James, to explore Christianity's Jewish roots, religious certainty, community, and what happens when you begin questioning the faith you inherited.
Ryan's journey moved from a Pentecostal childhood and the Messianic Jewish movement to music ministry, a volunteer coffeehouse church plant, seminary, and ordination as an Episcopal priest in 2021. His book reimagines James's final night as a Passover Seder in a Jerusalem prison in 62 CE, blending historical fiction with commentary on Jewish foundations of Christian worship.
Ryan's journey took him from a Pentecostal childhood in Oklahoma and the Messianic Jewish movement to music ministry, an independent coffeehouse church in Missouri, seminary in Virginia, and ordination as an Episcopal priest in 2021.
His book, The Last Seder of James, reimagines the final night of James, the brother of Jesus, as a Passover Seder in a Jerusalem prison in 62 CE combining historical fiction with commentary on the Jewish foundations of Christian worship.
We discuss:
Why certainty can become religious dependency and control.
The Jewish Passover roots of the Last Supper and Communion.
Paul's olive tree metaphor and Christianity's relationship to Judaism.
Replacement theology and the danger of religious superiority.
Scripture read through the experience of people living under empire.
The importance of forgiveness, community, and shared spiritual experience.
What Ryan learned building a volunteer-run coffeehouse church.
Why community may be the one thing a church truly owns.
Why returning to Christianity's origins can reveal something larger than institutions.
Main takeaways
Certainty is not always the same as truth; the freedom to ask hard questions can outweigh predetermined answers.
Communion carries deep Jewish Passover symbolism; knowing its origins adds depth rather than diminishes meaning.
Paul's olive tree calls for humility: Christianity is grafted into an existing Jewish story, not a replacement.
Community is the most irreplaceable asset a church owns—the people who actually show up.
Quotes
"I really do think certainty is a drug." — Rev. Ryan Wiksell
"If a strong radical, almost fanatic agnostic like me is podcasting his soul out for Christianity, the world has gone utterly mad." — Philipp Kobald

Frequency Follies: How to Tune Your Soul Without Short-Circuiting Your Sanity
Because Spiritual Enlightenment Shouldn’t Require a Safety Helmet
Based on a podcast conversation between guest Dr. Asia - The Soulful Creatrix and host Philipp Kobald. This episode dives into the tricky terrain of spiritual frequencies—how tuning into the right vibration can elevate your soul or send you spiraling into chaos.
They unpack the science and spirit of frequencies, the crucial role of grounding, and the pitfalls of chasing higher states without preparation. From billionaire money mantras to the reality behind “dark magic,” expect an honest roadmap for anyone navigating the spiritual fast lane.
What we discuss
• The analogy of the soul as a radio needing precise tuning to avoid spiritual static and psychosis
• Why grounding and opening the heart chakra are essential before ascending to higher frequencies
• The spiritual irony of wealthy seekers chasing angelic vibrations to manifest money without alignment
• The neutral nature of frequencies and the human framing that labels some as “dark magic”
• The importance of slow, deliberate spiritual work that improves your life and relationships, not isolates you
Main Takeaways
Patience and grounding: Spiritual work requires patience and grounding; rushing to “higher frequencies” can be harmful.
True alignment: Real alignment means coherence between what you think, feel, and produce, beyond moral judgments.
Dark magic reframed: Dark magic is less about demons and more about selfish manipulation and lack of responsibility.
Give back: The universe favors those who give back, not just take; spiritual growth demands honesty and discomfort.
Listen to nature: Nature and collective consciousness respond subtly to human conditions, urging us to slow down and tune in.
Quotes
“People want the good parts. They want the, ‘Hey, now I’m a nice person,’ but they don’t want the path that you go through, and there’s always a breaking, right?” — Dr. Asia - The Soulful Creatrix
“If you don’t walk there on your own feet, what is it worth? You can’t just get there as a passenger.” — Philipp Kobald
About our Guest
Dr. Asia Taylor, known as The Soulful Creatrix, specializes in vibration and frequency work, guiding clients toward spiritual alignment and coherence in a chaotic world.
