160: Finding More Joy with Barry and Gayla Gordon

I’m thrilled to have back to the show Barry and Gayla Gordon. Listen, these two have been around the block for many years. They’ve worked with some of the most well-known teachers in the world and they have been teaching others their deep wisdom for a very long time. Wisdom, in my opinion, that is really lacking in our modern world. We are quick to change directions, our thoughts are fleeting, and few are rooted in thoughts that are free of fear. The collective as a whole is a mess. Most lack jo...

159: My Feng Shui isn't Working, Now What?

Today's show is inspired by my long-time friend, Rhonda. She's looking for a new career so we put together an action plan to get her exactly what she wants using powerful Feng Shui principles. But, 10 days after setting the adjustments she called me, "Amanda it's not working." And even though Rhonda and I have been down this road before I knew I'd have to talk her off the ledge. I knew she was being impatient and not seeing the bigger picture, but that doesn't make her concern any less valid. It...

158: How to take a quantum leap with Adam Harmon banning

In this episode, Adam talks about how we can manifest the life we want by traveling to a timeline where we already have that thing or experience. Now, I first learned about timelines through Delores Cannon's work back in the early 2000’s and let me tell you my evolution wasn’t nearly as far along as it is now. I mean, does it really exist? Is what we see real? How about our experiences? Or is it all a hologram to aid in our spiritual awakening? Today you’re going to learn about what exactly a ti...

157: Feng Shui and Stairs, are they a problem?

Today I'm going to be sharing some tips on Feng Shui and stairs. Have you ever thought about the stairs in your own home? How about the energy they hold? This show was inspired by my adventures in real estate. I recently viewed a home with a buyer that had very crazy stairs - which I talk about in today's show and all I kept thinking about was the energy. How is this working or not working for this homeowner? Perhaps that is why they are selling? What I love about real estate is its giving me th...

154: Pets, is the food you are feeding them harming them?

Is the food you are feeding your pet harming them? Does your cat or dog constantly scratch, have bald spots, vomit, have watery eyes, diarrhea, or other ailments? It's likely that they have a food allergy. After years of trying to diagnose my cat Harley, I was still without answers. I was faced with a failing food system and allopathic medicine that treated a symptom and not the cause. Last fall Harley was diagnosed with stomach cancer and complete liver failure, despite my many attempts to trea...

148: How to Discover Your Terrain of Consciousness

Today I'm really excited to share with you a totally new approach to consciousness, called the Ten Terrains of Consciousness. It was developed by Allen David Reed and Tahnee Woolf and together, over many years of research they discovered that people are at different levels - meaning their lens or perspective is filtered differently based on the terrain they are at. Have you ever wondered why someone doesn't understand where you're coming from? Ever think someone is making absolutely no sense? Ma...

147: Chi and the Full Moon in Taurus

Today I wanted to do a quick show talking about the full moon on October 31st. This is a powerful moon because it's glued to the planet Uranus, which is known for disruption. Plus, we haven’t seen a full moon on halloween since 1944! More importantly is how this astrological event affects our Chi - not only personally but in our homes. Due to the pandemic many people are starting to see the importance of their homes and Chi. Not only is your personal Chi critical to feeling strong and healthy bu...

146: Making 2021 Flexible using Feng Shui

Since last fall I've been talking about this year and how it would bring upon us great change. As we move into 2021 it will be no different. Things will continue to rapidly change and shift and the idea of what many considered normal will not be returning. We are shifting into a timeline that is more communal, and less individual, less egoic and more spiritual. While this shift will take time - obviously, because there will be those willing to go and those who will only go kicking and screaming,...

145: Finding Perfect With Judi Miller

My guest, Judi Miller is the author of a new book called Perfect. What I really loved about this book is Judi's honest admission of growing up not being like everyone else and how it shifted her reality into adulthood. I think so many of us do this and carry childhood baggage throughout our lives, that alters everything we touch in life - whether it's our careers, relationships or even the commitments we make, it all stems back to our belief systems. What is so cool is that Judi's belief system ...

Everyone I am talking to it feeling “it.” Some of you are using the word frustrated, some are saying angry but I'd say the most frequent word is INTENSE. And that is ok. Don’t deny yourself the emotions you are feeling. They are a direct line of communication. But what can you do to fix it? How can you start to feel better? There is only one answer, community. Moving forward we are being asked to get back to basics and answer the call of our ancestors. In today's show I talk about what a gift yo...

140: How to overcome your overwhelm using Feng Shui

We have been conditioned to seek and form a reality outside of ourselves through the consumption of information. Based on what we are told through authorities we have come to believe these truths as fact. Whether that is our education system, government policies, social media or the mainstream news, the narrative is rigid and highly controlled. These narratives are highly skewed and likely not true to YOU. But when you do not take the time to find your inner compass, you grasp to what you are be...

I recently received an email from a previous student asking if the new paradigm would be positive or negative. Do we even know? Well as you'll learn in the show today, there is no such thing as positive or negative. As we move through the next three to five years our world will look very different than it has. Many big shifts are occurring and in the end it is so a new world can emerge that is softer and kinder. In today's show I share my predictions, what all of this means and why going through...

At the time I was married and my then husband and I had a lake front piece of property in Kentucky. I wanted to build a container home on the property...
