From the COVID- 19 Pandemic to the war in Ukraine, people are stressed out. So much so that they are behaving in ways they normally would not. We talk to award-winning author Adele Spraggon, about how our over-emphasis on our left hemisphere has created a world in which stress, overwhelm, isolation, confusion, and worry are now part of everyday living.

Adele then gives us steps on how to shift our brain so that we can reach our goal of personal empowerment.

On this episode we talk to author Juan Lee, author of “Love Made Simple,” about making love simple. Juan Lee will tell us why most religions feel restrictive when it comes to the message of love and how to separate the message from the practice.
