Shock Your Potential

Power Places - Theresa Dominguez-Weiss

“Allow yourself to mourn what you have lost.” ~ Theresa Dominguez-Weiss
When Theresa Dominguez-Weiss experienced the death of her beloved grandmother something extraordinary happened, but it was so overwhelming she completely buried the memory.  Years later, the remembrance of “Deathwalking,” accompanying her Abuelita (grandmother in Spanish) Grandma Rosie to the OtherSide and returning, bubbled to the surface.   She knew she had to share this remarkable experience with the world, every detail in all their shimmering glory.
Theresa Dominguez-Weiss, Family Nurse Practitioner, retired, author, researcher in neuroscience and workshop facilitator.  She conducts healing pilgrimages to power places around the world including the Great Pyramid, Machu Picchu, the pyramids of the ancient Mayans, Stonehenge plus others.
Dominguez-Weiss, has experienced many transformative events that most people would consider outside the realm of ordinary life. In the hopes of inspiring others, she has woven them together in this captivating book.  Her life is extraordinary, and her stories are fascinating. Deathwalker: Journeys of Life, Death & Beyond includes her experiences with death and near-death, intuition, and shamanic adventures at ancient power places such as the Great Pyramid, Sphinx and Machu Picchu.
For her, these “peak” moments have served as springboards into a more meaningful life.

Listen in !!
Our whole entire existence as individuals has been shocked during these Covid times and we are faced with the world as we knew it is no longer is and it will never be the same again. [03:31]
I still don’t know to this day why I said to my grandmother these words, “Grandma when it’s time for you to go, call me!” [06:21]
I didn’t remember anything else and did not for about 17 years. Then we had a conference the theme being Life, Death and Beyond. [07:28]
For 21 years I didn’t have the guys to publish what I had written. [08:48]
We have a ghost in our house. And whenever I tell people that they get scared. [09:57]
I wonder who it is but I feel like she loves this house, I feel like she is taking care of us and the next day we found a letter in the mail for her. [11:03]
When you are shocked, physically mentally emotionally or psychically shocked, neuro transmitters and neuro chemical reactions and a chain of reactions happens in your brain, nervous system, reflexes and you go into a ‘shutdown mode’. [12:59]
Commercial &Marketing U. [14:24]
What draws you back to these places specifically Egypt? What can you share with us about this place that can really motivate us and allow us to see how it can help us tap into our creativeness and wholeness as human beings? [17:30]
My experience in Egypt walking through the temples is that keys within yourself are turned on so that you are opened in the divine self, divine person who you are. [19:47]
Those keys start opening and you start feeling and sensing and actually knowing some of that information to get you to the point in your life or in your mind where you now know what is your destiny and why you were born. [20:44]
These representations of cultures are just glimpse to how short our lives are on this planet but we can still live legacies on a little scale or large scale. [23:28]
When things are renovated, the people renovating are doing their job but they are not highly trained, high level sensitive and initiates who have spent decades studying the ancient magic of how to build these temples from a secret place. [25:45]
I would recommend with a world service company who has had a lot of experience and has very special staff. [27:35]
People have told me, throughout the years coming and traveling to Egypt that the trips have totally changed their lives. [30:08]
In fact, one little guy said, “I divide my life into two, before Egypt and after Egypt. I can’t explain everything that I felt but there is something in those places.” [30:20]
Allow yourself to mourn what you have lost. Let that flow through you. [32:52]
Smile every day. [34:44]

I found my balance and fulfilment through travel, and therefore reorganized my business around what I was most passionate about. [2:35]
A lot of us have our own businesses which have gone online so you can be a nomad and build your business from anywhere [5:00]
It is really exciting to think about how we can incorporate more relaxation and enjoyment while we are doing what we are doing. [7:30]
There are great ways to do it and you can do it from different pay points. In the US we have many great places to go, by car or by train which is a great way to isolate yourself from others and the cruise ships are also coming back [7:55]
My retirement dream is to buy a condor cabin on a ship called ‘The World’. [10:55]
If you were smart and had reserves to get you through this year, you have spent the entire year improving your business. [12:45]
It is the same with the cruise ships and hotel industry who have done renovations, put in new policies and new practices for safety which are all making travel better now. [13:05]
A lot of resorts have put together long term stay and work packages offering dedicated spaces to work and also child care and a tutor [14:42]
From a business perspective I thought it was a smart decision because all I need are a few long-term lifelong clients [18:10]
Writing a book is one of the best ways to give yourself expert status [19:00]
Now that we are not travelling, this is the best time to sit down and really think about that bucket list. [20:05]
The best way to do that is to think about what milestones are going to happen in your life and the people that you travel with because those are fantastic travel opportunities [20:30]
You can start getting excited about those times now even if they are five years from now. [21:00]
I work with many financial advisors because they want me to help their clients set a budget [22:20]
Looking from a financial point or important occasion point, you can think about what you are able to do now and what you may not be able to do in future. [ 22:50]
One of the best ways to travel is taking the multigenerational trips [26.08]

Ed's Bred - Natasha and Ed Tatton

“Nature comes first, we love nature.” Ed and Natasha
Our Guest today is going to feed our souls. In a little bit different way. Ed and Natasha are the one who founders of a lovely little bakery called BRED spelt not the way you think so. They are originally from UK and they are both work in the hospitality industry.  In 2013 they decided let’s just pack up and go to BC snowboard for the season and see what happens.
As they did it created this desire to bake amazing bread, but also really do so in a way that is truly that is not only from the table but being more careful and caring about what we eat, looking at plant based diets in particular they came up with a concept that is really working for them.
Things you may not know about Ed and Natasha, Ed has been a foot man for state visits at Buckingham Palace and winter castle. He once put out a fire in a London underground tube he has cooked Dj Jazzy Jeff from the fresh prince of bell air.
Natasha grew up in foster care in south east London, she became vegetarian at age 7. She surfed around the world in Bali, Australia, Mexico and she cannot swim. Her first job was working as a clown in children’s parties where the kids chased her around to fight her or run away screaming and all she got paid is five euros per hour.

I’ve always worked as a chef and loved food from a very early age and loved baking with my mum [3:41]
I never worked with packaged foods or anything like that, we made everything from scratch, everything was organic [4:11]
Eventually I worked in a restaurant that made bread from scratch for their guests and I loved the process [4:22]
When we moved to whistler, I worked at restaurant people would buy bread in and I started the program there and it sort of snowballed [4:49]
I started making sour dough for friends and they’d wanted to buy the bread [5:00]
So, we spent time in Vancouver Island, working on farms for board and food. Ed started making sour dough for the farmers we were working with and stay with [5:21]
It was a great movement in 2020 where people could have that extra time and they may not have made sour dough but I think everyone has a higher appreciation of the time and skill that goes into it [6:45]
It’s been really nice through our social media platforms Instagram mostly, people are asking for more tutorials and asking questions and it’s an opportunity for me to engage with the rest of the world [7:06]
As a child I was just a natural vegetarian I didn’t enjoy eating meat [7:46]
When you are about that age you start visiting farms with the school and you discover the meat is animals. I remember being told that If you didn’t eat that you were vegetarian and so I gladly accepted the label. [8:32]
It was quite difficult being vegetarian as a child, people would cook meat generally and I would say sorry I’m vegetarian, and a lot the dads would say get some meat in you [8:51]
For me it’s just been a journey of learning and I’m much happier with my life now staying away from that stuff [10:20]
I think that just because more people are aligned to veganism but many people want to incorporate that in their diet. So it’s not always someone who is vegan who will ask for the vegan option [10:51]
From a professional point of view as a chef I really enjoyed travelling and working I travelled to New Zealand and Australia both countries have an influence from Asia and good fusion mix. [12:14]
Moving to Australia open and broaden my look on food and cooking with textures and stuff and this influenced my cooking and baking [12:42]
I was really surprised I went to Australia in the 90’s and I didn’t expect to have such Asian infused food like that [13:14]
Commercial &Marketing U. [18:42]
Tell us about whistler and why someone would want to visit whistler. [21:21]
The intent was to come for 6 months and move to Montreux. They say come for the winter and stay for the summer [21:47]
We fell in love with the community and what the tourist bring to the village. [22;18]
Our bakery is 100 percent plant based and we did that because we are both vegan but everyone is welcome. [22:49]
We are located in creek side as It expanded in the 70’s more to the north. We are the first place you get visit from Vancouver and you can ski all day. [23:00]
For people who aren’t into winter there is a lovely spa called the Scandinavian spa which is an outdoor spa, in the forest overlooking the mountains and you can sky dive [24:03]
In the summer you’ve mountain biking and down the hill biking and doing trails [24;33]
Many people come to whistler for wild life watching as well there are lots of black bears and its very safe. [25:47]
The community here loves the bears and teach that to the visitors. The trash tins are not easy to open coz of the bears [26:32]
I love the fact that the community is intentional about teaching about respect and keeping balance between natural wild life and community. [27:42]
Nature comes first, we love nature [28:56]
Persistence is the key in baking, try and try again. [34:08]
I think what said about baking is something we can keep remembering. When you see Instagram pages take it with a pinch of salt and get off your phones as well and make sure you are outside getting some nature and fresh air, even if it’s for one hour. [34:42]

I have a vision of the world; I happen to believe that we are at the very beginning of a great economic and cultural transition. Not necessarily a reset but a transition. [02:48]
I believe the best way to insulate yourself from that change and to make sure you can not only survive but thrive in the economy of now and the future is to do three basic things [03:18]
Constantly and deliberately be increasing your own human capital. [03:31]
Control the source of your income. [03:42]
To make the business mobile. [04:47]
I had all these things that I wanted to do, but I was so busy being fed and serving up those meals that I didn’t take stock of the next step. [06:20]
Money only matters to people who don’t have any. [08:37]
Total Autonomy; Being able to do what we want, when we want, with who we want, where we want, on our terms, without care or concerns for the cost. [08:49]
What I want are a group of people that I really enjoy spending time with and a business that allows me the freedom to go anywhere I want in the world and still continue to operate that business. [09:48]
There is a report that said, “by 2050, 50% of Americans will be self-employed.” [10:45]
Not everybody can be an entrepreneur! That is such an incredibly short sighted belief system that has no basis in reality. [11:56]
This is literally the best time in history to be alive. Opportunity abounds. [12:53]
We started a second business where we are connecting people with a remote workforce/ talent. [13:56] Kukuabiz
The great thing about the world we are living in is there are people like you and me who are not just teaching this stuff but are actively engaged in the work that we are teaching others how to do. [15:23]
Commercial &Marketing U. [16:26]
Many of the ways to be an entrepreneur today means you can do it anywhere; you can have a nomadic lifestyle. [18:45]
How can you tempt people to have a nomadic lifestyle? [19:13]
First of all, you have to want to do that. Some people this idea is not appealing to them, they are home bodies. [19:25]
One of the easiest ways for you to start creating that mobile income is to take what you do and teach it to somebody else. [22:50]
There has never been a better time to do this because now, there are so many people in the business of helping you be great in your business. [24:12]
What’s the one place you have being to that you think everyone should put in their bucket travel list. [25:40]
Don’t be afraid, take a chance, take a risk what is the worst that could happen. [28:33]
Most people cling so tight to what we have that we don’t enjoy that give us a good living and miss out on an incredible amazing life that you can only have if you are willing to take a risk.
Most people live a life of mediocrity, somewhere between total failure and their true potential because that is what feels the safest. [29:23]
Go for your true potential, test the limits, find out what you are worth and what you are made off. [29:31]

A journey to the Mountains - Jeff Rasley

“Every time you encounter a different culture a different environment you expand as a human being.” ~ Jeff Rasley
Many of us have different experiences with travel but how many of us have had travel open up a new world, a new you that you never thought existed. In his travel escapades Jeff Rasley encountered a new culture that led him start up a foundation for a community which he encountered whilst travelling.
In this episode we get to vicariously live through his experience and learn how travel can open up avenues you never thought existed.
Jeff Rasley is the founder of the Basa Village Foundation, which funds culturally sensitive development in Nepal. He is the co-founder of the Jeff and Alicia Rasley Internship Program for the ACLU of Indiana.
Jeff Rasley is the author of eleven books; the most recent is Anarchist, Republican... Assassin, a political novel. The tenth was You Have to Get Lost Before You Can Be Found, a memoir about 25 years of adventures and development work in the Himalayas. He has published numerous articles in academic and mainstream periodicals, including Newsweek, Chicago Magazine, ABA Journal, Family Law Review, The Journal of Communal Societies, Quest Magazine, and Friends Journal. He is an award-winning photographer and his pictures taken in the Himalayas and Caribbean and Pacific islands have been published in several journals. He has appeared as a featured guest on over 100 radio and podcast programs.
Website: https://www.Jeffrasley.com 
I found love with the Himalayan mountains, the nature, the people and the culture of the people that live up in the high mountains. [04:49]
If you have a well round organization and dependable people you can take time off. [06:39]
I think an organization will run so much better if people feel when they hit a burn out stage and need a time out then can take time to go recharge their batteries.  [10:10]
What possessed you to start your foundation and what kind of things do you try to achieve with your foundation that are allowing you to feel like you are giving back. [11:40]
Culturally sensitive development. [17:40]
It was an illustration of how you can maintain a traditional culture but also have the advantages that modern medicine and technology can do for you. [19:34]
Every project would be requested by the village itself. None of the projects were our ideas, they were ideas of the villagers. [20:48]
All of the construction work the villagers did themselves and we do not pay them for that. Then they own it. [21:16]
We didn’t want to create a culture of dependency where we just give them stuff and then it’s like they aren’t really invested in it. [21:38]
Commercial  &Marketing U. [21:55]
To me it’s a form of meditation, putting one foot in front of the other, your focus becomes where you place your feet, stopping now and then to take in the surrounding nature. [27:18]
Do you a moment where you feel guilty for someone else carrying your luggage and stuff up the mountains? [28:40]
Your guilt ends when you do what a lot of us like to do which is try to lift the bag. [28:46]
They are the strongest people in the world and to them it’s like a job. [29:22]
Take time every year, life is short and travel. [31:05]
Every time you encounter a different culture a different environment you expand as a human being. [31:23]

The Joy Bus Journeys - Jake Shumate

“People are really created to have adventure, to experience adventure.” ~ Jake Shumate
How would you like to travel the country in a 1973 VW Bus, experiencing great food and enjoying outdoor adventures, all for the purpose of inspiring others to live a healthy life? Our guest today does just that!
In this episode we learn about how Jake combined his own personal wanderlust with his desire to regain and retain health and fitness, and how to help us all be more aware of our 5 senses. We also learn about where he thinks everyone should visit, find a fish taco or three, walk a beach or climb a mountain, and get back in touch with nature. And it’s all in his own backyard of Laguna, CA.
As a Firefighter/Paramedic for more than 16 years, Jake Shumate has witnessed most illnesses people experience can be avoided. To fight fire with fire, Jake created Joy Bus Journeys, a fun online show to inspire people to live a healthy life. Each episode, Jake takes viewers on a Joy Bus Journey where they learn the benefits of eating delicious nutritious food, enjoying simple adventures, and caring for the environment.

People are really created to have adventure, to experience adventure. [04:10]
When you experience nature your stress levels go down. 04:34]
People’s actual environment, that they live in has a huge indicator of how healthy they are going be. [05:13]
Wherever you are there is some kind of adventure to be had, and its radically important for all of our health and wellbeing. [06:33]
Because we are so disconnected from the earth we have lost this ability to get rid of the negative ions. [13:46]
The idea of meditation is, awareness within yourself but if you do a walking meditation it’s really about awareness of what’s around you and how you are interacting with your environment. [14:26]
Something that I do when we go for a run, there is a spot with 6 trees and I would go to the trees and touch each of those trees. What I am running is connecting with the environment around me. [15:02]
It’s so helpful for our health physically, mentally, emotionally to remove ourselves from the story we are telling ourselves and move into something that is really present and around us. [16:16]
Commercial &Marketing U. [16:39]
What really folks don’t know about Laguna beach is that it’s definitely a food hotspot. [19:30]
For me and my family, going on adventure or a trip goes with eating delicious food. Those two things have to go together. [20:05]
One of the important things is that when you travel, you can use technology to your advantage, and go with what your intention is. [22:54]
Think outside the box, you can go to a local farm that does farm dinners or farm dates. [24:22]
When we eat it makes a big difference. [27:44]
When we eat and make choices about what we eat and where its sourced from we are helping the planet and helping ourselves. [27:59]
If it green and came out of the ground, it’s probably safer to eat that something that comes out of a bag. [28:15]
If you look at the ingredients and you don’t know what it is, don’t eat it. [28:20]

“You are whole and complete from the day you were born to the day you pass on.” ~ Triptta Neb Butkovich
Triptta Neb Butkovich was a successful organizational development consultant, an awesome executive coach, the life of the party, & the mother to 2 gorgeous boys. She was also a victim of narcissistic abuse. After 16 years of secretly living for someone else, she realized, only she could change her situation. She began to seek out different kinds of support to help her make sense of the chaos and hurt in her life. Hundreds of hours of healing modalities, attending mass coaching in auditoriums, studying the human psyche via short accreditations and a PhD enrollment, her coaching background, her openness and readiness to take action paid off - it took 8 long years, for her to find her identity, understand her values, embrace her vulnerabilities and to finally take her power back.

I underwent 16 years of abuse from my husband, physical abuse, financial abuse, sexual abuse, you just name it. [04:36]
My abuse at home made me work really hard in my job but was I truly happy and successful. [05:37]
Success is not equal to happiness. I am a living example of that. I was extremely successful in my business but I was extremely unhappy in my life. [06:12]
The sense of belonging is the first thing that is eroded when you are facing abuse, that sense of belonging is the first thing that is responsible for your depression, lack of sense of belonging is the first thing responsible for a lot of anxiety that you face. [08:55]
To keep the facade up took so much energy I had no time to give to personal relationships because I would have to work so hard to keep it up. [10:24]
Don’t judge a book by its cover, don’t look at a person and thing they have it all. [11:23]
We have kind of set or created this picture in our minds that this is what happiness looks like, or this is what you need to look like or be like to come across as successful so that people would want to connect with you. [13:07]

You never know what else is going on in anybody else’s lives. [16:12]
It takes small incremental steps to get a person out of that situation. [17:40]
When I started taking these small steps that’s when my own confidence within my own self started to grow and I started to feel better myself. [19:05]
It is really critical for you to have a sense of self, its super important for you to be able to build that sense of self, that is to find your self-identity again. [19:48]
What your identity might have been versus what your identity is today of you is something you need to discover. But also know you can create your own identity. [20:01]
Your external identity is as important as your internal identity. [23:11]
It is important for you to feel comfortable with your decisions that they are in line with your values. [23:30]
Everything and anything that puts you down help you create limiting beliefs and they prevent you from taking steps going further. [23:58]
What is really important to understand in an abusive situation is trying to maintain a balance of your chakras really helps you take those initial steps. [29:02]
Breath! You are the most important person in your life nobody else’s. [34:16]
You are whole and complete from the day you were born to the day you pass on. [34:26]
You are the only one who can actually fulfil yourself, nobody else can fulfil you in any way shape or form. [34:33]

Training with a Monk Mindset - Jay Sooknanan

“If you want to shock your potential, then change your habits.” ~ Jay Sooknanan
Going down the wrong path in life does not mean that you can’t make change for the better. Your past does not define your future if you make conscientious choice, and our guest today knows that personally and professional.
In this episode we learn about Jay’s background and how his wrong choices earlier in life prompted him to start living his life for his own dreams and goals, and not to please others. He also reminds us to love ourselves, even in, or maybe especially in, times of strife.
Jay Sooknanan is a Health and Wellness Guru who supports people and communities to live abundantly through well-rounded finances, health practices, and practices of well-being. He is also the author of Abundance - A Journey from Anxiety And Depression.

If you want to shock your potential, then change your habits. [04:14]
Always try to give me than you take, generosity is great. As I give more I receive. [05:06]
Doctors are great people, but the system itself doesn’t set them up to be the best service to people. [06:06]
The transition from employed to entrepreneurship can really affect you especially if you are not used to asking for things. [07:17]
You don’t need to convince people if your product or service if good. People are going to want it. [08:43]
Commercial Top Dog Learning Group LLC. [12:13]
What are your thoughts on helping people to start to make this mental transition and find some peace as we start to live a non-lockdown life? [14:42]
When you actually face challenges are you going to rise up and lead or fall back into your old habits? [15:12]
Take care of yourself, take care of your health, take care of your mind. Your mind is the most important thing. [16:01]
Instead of falling into the rabbit hole of negativity you got to learn to swim into positivity. [17:15]
If you meditate, it actually elevates your immune system more that exercise. [17:47]
Get a practice, get something you like that could reduce your thoughts, reduce your stress and relax your mind. [21:06]
Take that moment for you. Draw a line in the sand and create a routine that is going to manifest the life that you want. [21:43]
Your routine is going to dictate where you go. [21:55]

Thoughts Become Things - Lauren Saunders

“The level of belief you have in yourself dictates how you show up as well.” ~ Lauren Saunders
Do you believe that your mindset plays a role in your success? Have you used manifestation strategies to grow your business and overall success? Our guest today talks about these tools and more.
In this episode we talk about how to show up powerfully, to others and for ourselves, and how to harness the power of our own positive mindset for success.  We also discuss how our thoughts are tied so intrinsically to our reality, and how our brain searches for proof of what it is looking for.

At the age of 28, she left her career as a high school art teacher for a life of entrepreneurship, and she’s built two full-time businesses by implementing mindset, marketing, & manifestation strategies that actually work. Her experience and massive success has allowed her to coach business owners all over the world into full-time entrepreneurship. As an entrepreneur, she’s quadrupled her income as a teacher and lives a life of travel, freedom and passion. She is lit up when providing ambitious business owners with the tools they need to manifest the success and lives they truly desire.

As a business coach, I love talking to people about making more money if it’s something they desire. [03:24]’
All of us have incredible potential but for the most part it remains untapped. [04:01]
When you feel good about how you are putting yourself out there and believe in your offers, services and yourself, you are going to market yourself differently. [05:10]
I believe in speaking to people powerfully about what you have to offer and being confident on how you can help them. [08:05]
You talk about working with spiritual entrepreneurs, what do you mean by that? [10:41]
I am working with people who know that they are a part of something much bigger, that they can rely on the universe, or on life or on God. [12:19]
I work with people who understand just how powerful their thoughts and their mindsets are in creating their reality and are wanting to learn how to leverage they energy to create a life they love. [12:39]
The level of belief you have in yourself dictates how you show up as well. [14:46]
I think we need to allow ourselves to embrace whatever level of mindset or spirituality or energy work that resonates with you. [15:34]
Commercial Top Dog Learning Group LLC. [18:27]
It’s not about perfection, it’s about doing it. [20:27]
Most of the time when we are talking about mindset it’s within this idea that there are things to change. [21:51]
There is an immense amount of freedom when we change the story that we have about our emotions and stop making them wrong. [22:10]
It’s not the emotions themselves that we feel, it’s the story that we have about them. [22:25]
Thoughts become things, allow yourself to play around with the potential of things that you desire to create in your life. [29:33]

My mission is to really help people return home, to their power their potential and awaken all of themselves so that they can step into who they are supposed to be. [03:38]
Women are most powerful when they are tapped into themselves energized up on a self-care routine. [04:22]
It’s amazing who and what will come out of the wood works to try and get on your way. You are on the right track if you have a lot of speed bumps along the way. [08:40]
As women, as we build things we are so emotionally attached. We feel like they are a part of us. [09:32]
We have a choice every day to focus on ourselves or focus on serving our clients and asking them what they need. [15:50]
Commercial Top Dog Learning Group LLC. [17:28]
What are your thoughts on having people really be able to take better care of their selves and mental health and prepare them for the next transition in their lives? [19:30]
It’s never about the challenge externally, but the stress and suffering are about the internal dialogue commentary and suffering that creates more chaos. [20:52]
The biggest think is to pay attention to what is going on internally when external things happen. [21:13]
There are going to be a lot of people whose fear is going to manifest in a whole different way unless we start helping ourselves to take deeps breaths, relax, reflect and deal with the emotional side effects that come with along. [24:40]
Fear is always going to be there; you just have to consciously decide that you are not going to let fear drive your car. [27:15]
When you are doing big things, big fear is going to show up. [27:38]
The small you does not want you to accomplish the big things because that means you are going to grow and you going to impact a lot of people and bring them up with you. [27:52]
