Let's Play: The Create Podcast

One of our personal favorite podcast’s to date — this week we talk about stepping into our STAR POWER! And you know what? We are the stuff that stars are made of!! And the energy that radiates, shines, and attracts dwells within all of us… We discuss how to release that power and how to keep it generating, so that we can all live in the magnitude of our own personal galaxies!

This week we talk about preparing for the next great chapter of our lives!! Prompted from a listeners question — part 3 of a series of 4 — we discuss how to cultivate bravery and faith for what is coming next. We also dive into clearing the space for something NEW, rather than a repeat of the past, so we can open to the abundant future that we’re meant to live.

Our Part Two in our Listener’s letter about a BIG MOVE. How do we know what belongs in our lives, and what to let go of? Whether it be in our closets, relationships, career, or creativity — the time comes when we need to decide what stays and what goes. In this podcast, we explore having the “eyes to perceive the best” in order to see the Divine in all things.

This week, Natalie & Kristin dive into another listener’s letter. In this one, we explore what is coming up around a person's big move — what do you hold onto when everything else is shifting?? The first part in a four part series, we talk about what can be gained when life has you free falling’ (remember the Tom Petty song?). We examine the gift of surrender: how letting go shows us our true foundation, our internal home.

Do you ever notice yourself feeling underestimated?? By others or by yourself? Our topic this week comes from a listener who is looking to “un-do” underestimating in herself. One of the things we found is that if we underestimate who and what we are, we also underestimate the Universe — cutting ourselves off from so many options, resources, and opportunities. It’s time to open up, un-do, and receive!

Today we talk to actress, singer, dancer, comedian and Broadway Baby J. Elaine Marcos! She has been in NINE — count them — NINE Broadway Shows and has learned so much about creating from the inside out, claiming your gifts, detachment, and the process. We talk about it all!!

Friends!! Have you ever had a plane ride that changed your life? We did. We can’t wait to share with you the incredible people we have met and the way they are creating change. Meet Brian Lewis and Nadya Encarnacion — two powerhouse artists and freedom fighters who are a part of a trailblazing organization called Exalt. The work they do has caused a call to action in our hearts, and we hope to inspire the same in you.

Do you have a friend that is always crying “Poor Me?” You know the one that is often is in victim energy and wants to bemoan their fate? Well, this week we answer that question from a listener — what do we do in this situation? We talk about how to energetically meet these people in our lives as we also work with that energy within ourselves.

When New York times best selling author, broadway star, founder and CEO of Zuckerberg Media and goddess fashionista Randi Zuckerberg stopped by, we talked women, empowerment, and the illusion of balance! Randi is such a beautiful example of someone who creates her businesses from her heart and where she sees a need in the world. Listen for a dose of inspiration, female power, and encouragement in whatever you may be creating in your life. We’re all in this together!

Oh!!! We are the biggest fans of Dr. Shefali’s work around conscious parting, and something in us starting saying — what if you applied her work to EVERYTHING you give birth to? Including creative projects and relationships? So today, friends, we are going deep and talking about how what we birth truly births us. What we make, actually has the ability to make us free.

Have you ever found yourself asking the question, “What am I Doing Wrong?” Do you ever feel yourself looking around your life and feeling like the pieces just don’t fit? Like you are taking action and yet nothing is changing? Have you ever thought, "there must be something I am not seeing..." Well, this week we dig into that question, what that question reveals, and how we might transform that question into something that will serve our purpose. We travel on this Podcast from the Sufi's to psychology and all the way into the truth of your Soul.

This week we have our dearest John Davisi come chat it out with us on the topic “The Antidote for Obligation.” Yep! Do you ever feel like your life becomes of a long series of things you HAVE to do, over things you WANT to do? Does it ever feel like you get burnt out on everyday tasks, and your days start to lose their color? It’s very easy to get caught up in the rat race and get cut off from your heart. We wanna give some tools and tricks to activate the energies of joy, pleasure, and zest. Leave that obligation in the dust!!

This week we're talking about EXPECTATIONS! That’s right, we can get into suffering when we hold others to expectations of how they “ought to be.” As Anthony De Mello says, "Where there is love there are no demands, no expectations, no dependency.” There is freedom when we let go of others to make us happy (scratch that off the list!) and realize that our power to create and define our life is in our own capable hands.

Hold on, Creators!! Do we have a special treat for you!?!? This week writer, director, actress, producer, and coach Jessica Blank is with us. We talk to her about what makes a great story, how empathy is the key to connection, and how to know which projects are the ones that need your attention. The two of us were riveted by this conversation and we know that you will be too! Listen and get inspired about what you are making on the planet!!

Have you ever felt like everywhere you turn is closed doors? Like there are obstacles that are keeping you from moving forward? Well, in this week’s podcast we talk about the internal and external things that keep us stuck, and what we can do energetically to create shifts for openings and forward momentum in our lives.

We all feel that calling of greatness in us. And often, we can get frustrated in our own lives when it feels like we are living at a level that doesn’t live up to the urging we feel within. This week, we explore the concepts in George Leonard’s book, “Mastery” as we talk about how the path to true greatness might look different than what society suggests. Perhaps Love and Devotion and Practice might have more to do with true Mastery than we ever expected?

One of our dear listeners asked us if we’d talk about our meditation practices. Now, before you roll your eyes… we’d like to offer that there’s more to meditation that meets the eye. In fact, we’d like to expand the definition! And we’d like to make it sexy!!! This week we drop into what we practice, how we cultivated that practice, and how it’s changed us. We also riff on devotion and absorption — how becoming one with an object of attention is a pathway to the happiness that is always already there.

You know what it’s like when the Universe is saying “hey, listen up!" Maybe you feel like every where you go you get blocked and all doors are closed? Maybe you’ve had an injury where you are forced to sit down? Maybe you keep getting dramatic signs that all point in one direction? Whatever it shows up as, eventually you throw up your hands and you say “I hear you! I’m listening!!!” This week we wanted to chat about how the Universe can get loud when it REALLY wants us to get something, and how this comes from a truly loving place. It’s communication because we are adored, and Life wants to show us a better way.

Did you know your Creativity is always on? We are always in the process of Creating. Every day, every action, and even every thought is an act of Creation. Your Creativity wants to be used by you for your Highest and Best. This week, we go into the different ways that Creativity functions: by identifying and harnessing it we can empower ourselves in our lives.

Do you know that Inner Critic? The part of you that ALWAYS has something to say, and it’s never positive? Michael Singer calls it “The Inner Roommate” and Jack Plotnick calls it “The Vulture.” You can call it whatever you want, but it’s no fun!! What are we supposed to do with that Inner Bully that just wants to beat us up and bring us down? Where did it come from? What does it want? And is there a way we can USE this Bully for our own growth and evolution? Is there a way this Bully could be FOR us??? Listen and find out!!
