  • "What is the message that wants to come through you now?"

    This is the question storyteller David Alder asked each of us to contemplate as we embarked on an 8-week writing course—the result of which became the previous episode of this podcast (an episode my husband said was my best ever!)

    We all have stories within us that shape us at a profound level and change the way we engage with this world. Sometimes, these stories reawaken within us and ask to be shared. David Alder is a storyteller shepherding people to create parables of change through his transformative writing courses and workshops.

    He is also the author of a thought-provoking parable of his own called "We Will Call it Pala" a cautionary tale about the mainstream use and commodification of the psychedelic therapy movement.

    If you've never engaged in a consistent writing practice before, David shares practical and energetic tools to cultivate a discipline around storytelling and shares a compelling and urgent treatise for why our world needs more heart-centered stories to individually and collectively raise the vibration of our planet.

    I hope you love this conversation as much as I did.

  • What is shadow work? How do you identify and work with your golden shadow as opposed to your darker shadow?

    Join Nadia as she interviews Dr. Ido Cohen, Jungian psychologist and psychedelic educator.

    In this episode, we explore several avenues of spirituality, psychological, and personal growth:

    Understanding Synchronicity: Dr. Cohen delves into the concept of synchronicity, explaining it as a meaningful connection between internal and external events that go beyond mere coincidence. This includes how synchronicities can be seen as messages or signs from the subconscious or the universe. Jungian Psychology and the Self: The discussion covers Jungian psychology extensively, particularly the concept of the 'Self' and its relationship with the ego. Dr. Cohen describes how the ego acts as a translator and processor for messages from the Self, aiding in personal growth and understanding. Role of Psychedelics in Spiritual Practice: The podcast explores how psychedelics can be integrated into spiritual practice, offering profound experiences and insights. Dr. Cohen emphasizes the importance of proper integration of these experiences into one's life. Shadow Work: A significant portion of the conversation is dedicated to understanding the shadow self, including both the 'golden shadow' (hidden talents and positive aspects) and the 'darker shadow' (repressed or negative aspects). Processing Trauma and Life Challenges: Dr. Cohen discusses the importance of working through traumatic experiences and challenging life events as opportunities for growth and learning. Spirituality as a Taboo and Personal Exploration: Addressing the taboo surrounding spirituality in certain cultures and communities, and the importance of creating a safe space for exploring and discussing spiritual topics. The Importance of Integration Work: For making sense of and applying insights from both peak psychedelic experiences and deep psychological work in day-to-day life. Rebirth and Transformation: Dr. Cohen shares his experience of his house burning down, and how such events can lead to profound and unexpected personal change. Engaging with the Invisible: The episode delves into the importance of engaging with the 'invisible' or aspects of life and the psyche that are not immediately visible or tangible, but deeply influential. Approaching Life Changes and New Beginnings: Lastly, Dr. Cohen discusses practical ways to approach life changes and new beginnings, emphasizing the importance of taking small, conscious steps towards transformation.

    More about Dr. Ido Cohen:

    Dr. Ido Cohen, a clinical psychologist with training from CIIS and the Jung Institute in San Francisco, specializes in treating early childhood trauma, addiction recovery, relationship issues, and psycho-spiritual exploration. He works with individuals, couples, and groups in the Bay Area. His doctoral dissertation examined the psychospiritual integration of Ayahuasca ceremonies through a Jungian psychology perspective. Dr. Cohen provides preparation and integration services for individuals and groups, along with various workshops and trainings on these subjects. He founded The Integration Circle, a community of professionals committed to assisting individuals and groups in preparing for and integrating psychedelic and entheogenic experiences into lasting and meaningful changes.

  • Learn more about EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques), often referred to as tapping with expert Amy Piper.

    EFT operates on the premise that emotional distress and psychological issues are linked to disturbances in the body's energy system. It draws from the ancient Chinese meridian system, the same energy pathways used in acupuncture and acupressure. By tapping on these various points in the body while focusing on a particular challenge or emotion, you can move it physically through your body. A typical EFT session includes identifying a specific issue to focus on, rating the intensity of the emotion, and then performing a series of tapping sequences while repeating affirmations or statements related to the issue.

    In this insightful episode of The Current, Amy shares her personal journey into the world of EFT, explaining how it facilitated her own healing and led to a career shift. The conversation delves into the specifics of EFT, its benefits, and how it integrates with Human Design. Amy provides a comprehensive explanation of the EFT process, including a demonstration of tapping points and a real-time exercise to address Nadia's experiences feeling hyper vigilance in cars due to an car accident she experienced in high school.

    The episode offers listeners an in-depth understanding of EFT's role in addressing various issues like trauma, anxiety, depression, and phobias. Additionally, Amy discusses the significance of uncovering and addressing core beliefs through EFT.

  • I believe that we are all divine souls having a human experience. This human experience is designed to stretch us spiritually—an “Earth School” with a unique curriculum of relationships and experiences designed to help us grow and evolve. The goal? To remember that we are all interconnected and come from the same loving Source. To choose love in all interactions and turn up the brightness of the love that’s in our hearts and raise the vibration of our planet through consistent inner inquiry practices and presence with ourselves.

    Despite having momentary glimpses of this truth and surrounding myself with crystals, books, and objects that remind me of it daily, I forget it. My journey is just as clunky, full of fumbles, and laughable moments of ignorance.

    In this fast-paced world of endless media scrolling, I crave real-life, honest examples of humans on their individuated spiritual journeys to stimulate my self-reflection, observation, and growth. I want to ask everyone I meet, “What lesson are you currently learning in life?” One of my favorite mantras is “create what you want to see in the world.”

    As such, I am humbly offering my own lessons and stories from my human fumbling here in an effort to reconnect you to your heart and spiritual journey and hopefully make us all feel less alone in the shared humanity of it all.

  • Today, The Current takes on a new energetic vibration, frequency, and direction.

    This podcast is a reminder that you are a divine being. You have, and have always had, everything that you need within you. All you need to do is take a moment of stillness to tune inward and connect to your heart.

    My hope is is that this podcast drops you into the energetic frequency of inspiration and optimism. Despite all of the difficulty, pain, suffering, and density that exists on this planet, I hope this podcast helps you turn up the volume and amplification of the light that exists within you.

    That is not to say that difficulty will no longer exist on this plane, of course it will.

    But we will also be able to see the beauty that exists here in ways that we've never been able to see before. We will be able to access healing in ways that we've never been able to access before. We will be able to access our soul frequency and attunement more than we've ever been able to access before.

    Despite the illusion of separateness on Earth, we are always connected and we are never alone. Not only are we connected to our fellow humanity, we are connected to all the souls we've incarnated with prior to this lifetime. We are connected to many, many divine beings as I am when I record these episodes that you can likely feel in the energetic vibration of my voice.

    This podcast is an energetic portal for reconnecting to your heart to share that energy and frequency with others so that we can build a more beautiful and spiritually-connected world.

    There are many tools and modalities that I will share here, because this show is about your healing, our collective healing, and also your expansion into potentiality. Into the possibilities that are infinite for you in this lifetime, and the lifetimes to come.

    We'll continue to expand on therapy, spirituality, inner child work, Human Design, mind-expanding substances, intuition, past lives, intergenerational patterns, dreamwork, sexual healing, connection to our bodies, animals, plants, nature, and Earth, creativity, self-expression, and real stories about healing and consciousness expansion.

    Thank you for being along for this incredible ride. I see you and I am deeply grateful that you’re here.

  • Brooke Baxter is a Reiki Master, Animal Communicator, Energy Healer, Natural Horsewoman, and Natural Nutrition Consultant. She is also a mother, wife, friend, and daughter.

    Brooke’s work is awakening humanity to all of our innate abilities to communicate with animals.

    When asked what animal communication is, she replied, “Animal communication includes what you and I are doing right now. We are exchanging information and energy. We’re doing it with our words out loud but we’re also doing it as we mingle our energy in this space. Our hearts are connecting and our intentions and like-mindedness are awakening to one another. Animal communication is an extension of that exchange of information.

    Animal communication is the most basic form of communication on the planet. All sentient beings share it. And it isn’t a magical special gift that just a few people have. It’s not a superpower and it isn’t limited in any way. Every single one of us can do it—we were born to. We already are in many cases but don’t realize it. And all of the animals around us, this is their language. It’s a matter of us letting go of some of the words we get caught up in and some of the conditioning of our human society and getting back in touch with the vibrations, the intentions, the thoughts, the sensations, the memories that we can transmit to one another non-verbally. It includes body language, but it isn’t just body language. It really is an exchange of ideas and feelings and thoughts.”

    Nadia received an animal communication reading from Brooke for her two dogs, Otis and Murphy, and they share in depth about this profound, eye-opening, and sometimes hilarious experience! Our animals really notice so much about our thoughts and feelings living alongside us.

    All living beings on our planet come from the same place. We are all source love energy. Walking a spiritual path means opening our hearts to all living species and living more thoughtfully and meaningfully alongside them with curiosity and humility.

    Thank you, Brooke, for this deeply personal and meaningful conversation! I’m so grateful our paths crossed in this lifetime.

  • For those who seek, psychedelic journey work has the expansive potential to help you meet your truest self. The part of you that sits behind emotions, thoughts, experiences, job titles, and identities. We call this the Self. And it’s from the seat of the Self that true healing and awakening can begin.

    Licensed therapist, Clare Johnson, and licensed nurse practitioner, Nick Baker, are both certified psychedelic guides working in the field of psychedelic-assisted therapy.

    Today, they’re back on The Current to discuss their upcoming psychedelic retreat: a 6-day experience in the heart of the Costa Rican rainforest in March 2024.

    The retreat will take place at an eco-luxury sanctuary for legal plant medicine ceremonies situated on 200 private acres of lush, verdant land. The entire property is fed by the largest waterfall in Costa Rica, the Diamante Falls.

    Learn more and apply to this retreat at www.samesummit.com

    This episode is also intended to be a guide if you’re considering attending any psychedelic retreat. We cover a lot of ground including:

    How to recognize if a facilitator is in integrity (are they leading you to their answers or your own inner wisdom?) How to set intentions without gripping to rigid expectations of your journey Real life examples of the rewarding and challenging aspects of this work The power of psychedelic journeying in a safe group setting How Clare and Nick allow versus guide people into their own psychedelic experience What to expect and ask for during preparation and integration How to know if this work is right for you

    PS Nadia will be assisting this Costa Rica retreat!

  • Human Design Reflectors make up only 1% of the population. Reflectors are designed to be at the center of our organizations and communities letting us know how things are going as they are uniquely attuned to the health and wellbeing of the whole. 
    MG's and Generators create, build, and do. Manifestors initiate. Projectors deeply see individuals and systems. Reflectors are connected to it all. They have the unique ability through their 9 open centers to connect to everything, everywhere, all at once. The key for Reflectors is to remain objective and unidentified from the energy they are continuously picking up—and this can be difficult!
    On this episode, Sam and I interview Becca (@hdundefined) and Jules (@msjulianajames) who are two Reflectors in business partnership together. They share grounded and differentiated takes based on their lived experiences as Reflectors several years into their individual experiments. Together we cover:

    Becca and Jules each describe how Reflector energy feels for them
    How to identify Reflector disappointment
    What Reflector surprise feels like
    Specific ways to work with waiting a full lunar cycle before making big decisions
    How to lean on "sounding board" authority for all the decisions in between
    Recognizing and trusting when environments and relationships no longer feel good
    Myth busting: despite having only open centers, Reflectors can do a lot! Becca and Jules discuss their energy management throughout the day as entrepreneurs
    Reflector love bomb: what Becca and Jules love most about being Reflectors
    How to support the Reflectors in your life

  • Human Design Projectors are our seers, guides, and leaders. Projectors are here to see into people, projects, and situations deeply. Their awareness is both penetrating and illuminating. Projectors aren't here to measure themselves by how much they do, but by how well they see.

    In this episode, we dive deep into Projector energy through the lens of two Projector perspectives: host Nadia Last's as well as our guest's, Amber Larsen. Alongside Sam Pfotenhauer we unpack:

    What a Projector is and their unique penetrating aura What Projector bitterness feels like and how to recognize it in your body What Projector success feels like and how to attract more of it What "waiting for the invitation" means and how to feel empowered in your strategy The unique energetics of resting and how to reclaim more of your energy as a Projector

    There is so much juicy goodness in this episode and we hope it empowers you if you're a Projector or helps you love on the Projectors in your life more as a Projector ally. :)
