Fear has a way of sounding like the truth. But what if the thoughts keeping you stuck are asking to be questioned, rather than believed?
In this conversation, bestselling author and spiritual teacher Alan Cohen explores one of the most powerful choices we make every day: whether we respond to life from fear or from love.
From the unlikely beginning of his writing career and a $50 typewriter to navigating heartbreak, indecision, self-doubt and abundance, Alan shares practical spiritual wisdom to help you quiet the mind, trust your inner guidance and see life differently.
We explore how to recognise the voice of fear, reconnect with the voice of love, and use everyday moments as opportunities for growth. Alan also shares his approach to miracles, authentic living, morning spiritual practices, the ego, and what it means to be a “faith keeper” for the people we love.
And when it comes to wealth and success, could relaxing into trust and alignment be more powerful than constantly striving?
If you’ve been overthinking, comparing yourself to others, or wondering whether you’re enough, this conversation offers a refreshing invitation to return to what matters.
Discover how choosing love over fear can transform the way you think, feel and live.

What if the peace you’re searching for is already closer than you think?
In this deeply moving conversation, I’m joined by spiritual teacher  Asha Nayaswami,to explore inner peace, meditation, spiritual awakening, consciousness and self-realisation, drawing on more than 50 years of living and teaching the principles rooted in Paramahansa Yogananda and Kriya Yoga.
This conversation left me feeling deeply steady for hours afterwards — and I think there is something here for anyone searching for greater peace, clarity and inner freedom.
We begin with Asha’s extraordinary journey in Northern California in 1969, during a time of psychedelics, Eastern philosophy and spiritual exploration. She shares the quiet realisation that the conventional paths to success were not going to answer the deeper question she was searching for: Who are we, really?
Asha shares the profound moment she met Swami Kriyananda  and recognised what she describes as a boundless presence, as well as the meaning behind her spiritual name and the Nayaswami path — bringing spirituality, meditation and higher consciousness into everyday life.
From there, we explore Christ consciousness, spiritual awakening and the relationship between revelation and religion, including why profound spiritual experiences can sometimes become rigid belief systems — and why discernment is so important in a world filled with endless voices and opinions.
Asha also shares practical wisdom around meditation, consciousness, habits and inner transformation. We explore how our habits shape our inner energy and experience, and one beautifully simple question we can ask ourselves throughout the day:
“Can I be more expanded and less contracted right now?”
We also have an honest conversation about grief, tragedy and suffering, exploring how better questions can sometimes widen our perspective without denying the reality of heartbreak.
And we explore something surprisingly simple but powerful: how music, environment and the energy around us can influence the mind, much like tuning an instrument.
Ultimately, this conversation is about peace, presence, meditation, consciousness, self-realisation and the journey inward — and discovering that perhaps the peace we are searching for is not somewhere we need to get to, but something we can practise returning to, moment by moment.
If you’re interested in spiritual awakening, Kriya Yoga, meditation, Paramahansa Yogananda, higher consciousness, inner peace or living a more meaningful life, I think you’ll find something valuable in this conversation.
🎧 Listen now and join us for a deeper exploration of peace, consciousness and the journey home to yourself.

What if your purpose isn’t something you have to find — but something you’re here to embody?
In this powerful conversation, I sit down with my friend Yadi Alba, a modern-day medicine woman, spiritual advisor and co-founder of the Goddess Wisdom Council, to explore sacred purpose, spiritual awakening, consciousness and what it really means to find your purpose and live a life that feels deeply connected from the inside out.
Yadi’s journey has taken her from Mexico and UC Berkeley into a profound spiritual awakening and a path deeply influenced by Mayan, Toltec and Aztec wisdom traditions — bringing ancient wisdom into modern life in a grounded, practical and deeply human way.
We explore unity consciousness and why spirituality can sometimes become distorted into an idea of “all light, no shadow.” Yadi offers a beautiful reframe: darkness can be understood as the womb of creation — an energetic space of infinite possibility rather than something to fear or reject.
From there, we explore the integration of the divine feminine and sacred masculine, and how bringing these energies into greater balance can influence our health, relationships, leadership and sustainable success.
This conversation is particularly relevant for high performers who may be achieving a great deal externally, yet still feel disconnected, overwhelmed or uncertain internally.
Yadi also introduces her work with “energetic imprints” — limiting beliefs, emotional patterns and automatic coping behaviours that can become embedded in the nervous system and carried through family lineage.
We talk about triggers as opportunities for awareness, inner-child healing, emotional healing, personal responsibility and the power of consciously choosing a different response. Because when we change the way we respond, we can begin creating new neural pathways — and ultimately, a new lived experience.
We also explore perfectionism, self-worth, relationships, personal growth, spiritual growth and conscious leadership — and the possibility that your sacred purpose may be much closer than you think.
If you’ve ever felt there must be more to life than simply achieving the next goal, this conversation is for you.
