In this episode, we dive deep into the mystical realm of dreams with Natasha Bolvin - dream mystic, interpreter, and dreamwork guide. Natasha is a fellow left-handed creative powerhouse intuitive whose knowledge of dream interpretation began at early childhood having been born into a family who placed great emphasis on the importance of documenting dreams in order to decode messages and meanings that could strongly help to guide us along our spiritual journey.

I really enjoyed the flow of this conversation and although we jumped all over the place (both blessed with the gift of ADHD), we always circled back to anchor the key points and practices that help us inner-stand our multidimensional selves.

It's been a while since I've uploaded any content and for that I apologize sincerely. Life happens and although I wish I could do this full time, that's just not the case - at least yet.

That being said, I had a special and synchronous visit from a brother I met well over a year ago who recently returned from a very transformational spiritual journey.

James aka the.king.of.james is a walking, talking (and singing) testament of spirituality in practice. He has accessed new heights of peace and power since his journey into the forests and jungles of some of earth's most remote and special places.

Enjoy as we dive into the topic of true spirituality with the intention of just keeping it raw, real and rolling in the flow of what it means to be aligned, empowered and authentically embodied. Some real powerful metaphors and magic unfold in this conversation that I trust you will find as much value in and enjoy as I did.

You can follow James' journey on instagram at @the.king.of.james And yes, I promise there will be a part 2 coming soon. There is so much more to unpack with this beautiful quadruple Scorpio. Stay tuned!

Welcome to the premiere episode of this new subseries dedicated to dissecting intricate poetic verses written by some of the talented artists I know and have had the opportunity to record and produce. In this debut, I'm taking a deep dive into one of my own verses—a heartfelt tribute to my biological mother and Mother Earth, viewed through the lens of both her son, as well as the sun itself.

I'll be exploring the astrological connection between us, as my fiery Leo energy collides with my mother's solid Taurus nature, forming what's known in astrology as a "square" relationship. Through the rhythm and rhyme of my lyrics, I blend the masculine and feminine energies, celebrating the unique bond shared between a mother and her son.

This episode marks the beginning of a new series titled 'Expressing The Thoughts,' a passion project I've been eager to share with you all. Crafting poetry, especially in the form of rap, requires dedication and creativity, and I'm thrilled to finally unveil this aspect of my artistry.

I hope you'll enjoy this episode as much as I enjoyed creating it. And as always, thank you for your ongoing support—it means the world to me!
