Are You Ready to Find Your Fierce & Loving?
Episode description
Something is stirring. Maybe you’ve felt it. We are reckoning with the reality of injustice and binary thinking that feeds the political machine. New conversations are happening around race, class, gender, and sexual orientation. Humanity is in the midst of a heartbreaking and painful paradigm shift. That is a good thing.
What I have learned is that the most radical thing I can do is support people in freeing their minds. This podcast is intended to help you disrupt, untangle, and free your mind of personal and collective agreements, patterns, and beliefs that are holding you back and weighing you down.
Personal transformation AND collective awakening involve being the most alive, brilliant, inspired, creative, and on fire version of yourself, a version that is not consistent with the status quo. My name is Lola Wright. I'm not here to maintain the status quo. I'm here to support the dismantling and remembering that is necessary within you to reconfigure, reorient, and recreate reality from a place that is not based on scarcity and survival, but abundance, imagination, and desire.
Find Your Fierce & Loving is not your typical podcast. You'll never get the same show twice. I'll be doing long-form interviews with conscious creatives, taking you on meditative experiences to move your body, awaken your soul, and provoke your mind. I'll bring together artists, activists, and thought leaders for transformational experiences and soul revealing work.
We desperately need your fierce and loving purpose now more than ever. We've been brought to our knees and not a moment too soon. At a time when protests are sweeping the nation, here's what I know - your purpose is your protest. It is the most radical thing you can bring to the world. And my purpose is to help you find yours.
This podcast is a wake-up call, a roadmap back to your holy purpose, an invitation to set fire to the box you've been living in, and watch it burn.

Chicago born and built, I grew up in the wealth and privilege of private schools, country clubs, and manicured neighborhoods, yet I always sensed something was missing. I sought out aliveness and freedom in music, immersing myself in the hip hop and house music scenes of 90s Chicago. Then at 18, a pregnancy. By 22, the mother of two young children and living in a volatile and insecure environment. A year later, I was on my own, determined to create a new experience.
I am an ordained minister with a gift for weaving together the mystical and material, I served for many years as the CEO of Bodhi Center, an organization committed to personal transformation, collective awakening, conscious activism, and community-building. On this podcast, you can expect meditations, reflections, and interviews that are thought-provoking and filled with heart and humor.
