Altared Podcast - A Psychonauts Journey with Scott Kaufman
play

10/18/23 • 46 min

Scott Kaufman is like a wizard for the heart. He has a way of getting down to the nitty-gritty really quickly, and in a way that feels true, and approachable. As a coach, he offers practical and tangible tools that can be implemented immediately and shares authentically every time we connect. Which, lucky for me, is pretty often. I am so stoked to share his story and his wisdom with you today.


In today's episode, we dive deep into some of our psychedelic experiences, together and separately. He shares about his ego deaths that were utterly life-altering in every way imaginable. We talk about polarity, couple's work, and men's work. He coaches me on some old stories that I hadn't fully released, and so much more.


Let's get to it.

Altared Podcast - Embodying Your Future Self with Deanna Smith
play

10/11/23 • 45 min

Are you ready to release resistance, surrender, soften into how you want to feel, and embody your future self? I thought so, that's why Deanna Smith is on the Podcast today.


Deanna has been my coach and mentor for many years, she has walked me through some of the more trying times in my life, and shown me that there is another way.


The world you want to embody, the world that is actually aligned with your highest self, starts with who you are being. It is a reflection of your true self that longs to express itself in a continuous unfolding.


Deanna believes when you decide change is possible for you and show up for yourself over and over committing to small adjustments over time, change is not only possible it is inevitable.


Yes, please.


Let's dive in and hear the tremendous wisdom that Deanna shares.

Altared Podcast - Trusting Your Truth

Trusting Your Truth

Altared Podcast

play

03/01/21 • 46 min

Today is lit y'all. Named one of the “35 Under 35 in Wellness to Watch” by Wanderlust, Shannon Algeo is a celebrated speaker, writer, life coach, Yoga Nidra and meditation teacher. His popular podcast SoulFeed features interviews with iconic cultural and spiritual leaders like Deepak Chopra, Caroline Myss, Marianne Williamson, Danielle LaPorte, and many more. In his coaching practice, Algeo works with clients to heal old patterns of trauma so they can show up in the world with power, presence, and purpose.


Shannon is known around the world for his gift of processing his own life experience into words that can be heard or read in service of greater learning, deeper resonance, and profound healing.


Shannon was rated as one of the “nicest instructors in New York City” by RateYourBurn for his work as a yoga and meditation teacher, and he leads meditation programs for companies like the global non-profit (RED) founded by Bono and The Museum of Contemporary Art. In addition to giving presentations for Lululemon and the Wanderlust Festival, Algeo was a featured guest speaker at the United Nations “Yoga and the UN Culture of Peace” event. He is now pursuing an M.A. in Counseling Psychology from Pacifica Graduate Institute.


www.trustyourtruthbook.com


We talk about:

  • How did you learn to listen to, and trust, your gut intuition?
  • Why do we have to sometimes betray ourselves in order to find our truth?
  • What happens when we are triggered and how do we come back to our center?
  • What is sacred rage and what have you learned from your rage?
  • How do we find our truth...

What People are Saying:

“Shannon Algeo inquires deeply into the questions that confront all of us now. Like a guide through a very dense forest, he paves a path and sheds light on where we need to walk. His hand is steady, his words encouraging, and the path he creates always moving in the direction of our spiritual truth.”


—Marianne Williamson, author of A Return to Love and A Politics of Love


“Honest, earnest, brave, and liberating, Shannon’s practices and illuminating narratives in Trust Your Truth will guide you home to yourself.”


Elena Brower, best-selling author of Practice You


“Shannon is a gifted and authentic teacher. He bravely shares the truth of his life lessons and the practices that helped him find clarity, build resilience, and thrive. I highly recommend this book to anyone who seeks to live a fulfilling and abundant life that is aligned with purpose.”


—Tracee Stanley, yoga teacher, and author of Radiant Rest and The Empowered Life Self- Inquiry Oracle Deck


“Trust Your Truth is an intimate, well-organized, and thought-provoking spiritual road map that provides embodied tools for healing past trauma, and soulful insights that lead to greater self-confidence. Shannon Algeo’s relatable and honest storytelling sets the tone for personal inquiry, and his explanation of the body’s energy system (chakras)—and the questions and practices he offers for self-exploration—are intriguing and accessible. Trust Your Truth is a meaningful companion for anyone on the path toward healing, awakening, and purpose.”

Seane Corn, yoga teacher; cofounder of Off the Mat, Into the World; and author of Revolution of the Soul

Altared Podcast - This is Ascension with Ahram Arya
play

02/25/19 • 54 min

This is one of my favorite podcasts to date, we dug deep and went for the light right away and on the fly. Ahram Arya is a spiritual teacher, Human Design specialist, and transformational coach. Yep, all of that. Ascending on his own spiritual path was dangerous work. As for many of you, it was destabilizing and traumatic. He was poisoned by toxic mold for 7 years and was stripped of all his possessions, his marriage, his jobs, and mind.

The most frightening idea he had to come to accept was that all this pain was part of a plan. The universe had taken everything from him so that he would leave behind all that was not him. And then he knew that this journey had simply been a training for his awakening.

Up to this point, training his Mind and Body had been at the center of his life. He had a design career with Nike and had pushed his limits as a runner. Then he had a realization. From this point forward, he was to dedicate himself to training his Soul.

Ahram’s higher purpose is to guide his fellow humans to transform with the potential of our higher selves. Spirituality is not a mystery. It is higher dimensional consciousness. And with that, he is dedicated to walking this path as a Spiritual Warrior to awaken your very own Art of Intuition.

Want to connect to Ahram? Duh www.ahramarya.org @humandesigntribe

Want to connect to me? I’d dig it www.alexasilvaggio.com @alexasilvaggio

Altared Podcast - Becoming Nourished with Dr. Sam Rader
play

04/28/21 • 57 min

No this episode isn't with a nutritionist, Becoming Nourished is about receiving and finally being taken care of. Yes with food, but so so so so so much more. Dr. Sam Rader brings so much wisdom to this episode, if you are a human, and want to level up this episode will give you some tangible tools to do just that.


You see, Dr. Sam Rader is a licensed clinical psychologist who has created a new field called Source Code Psychology. Source Code shows us our primary coping styles, where they came from and when, and allows us to get to the root to heal them wholeheartedly. In this episode we dig deep into several coping styles (which without a doubt you have at least one of) and their antidote. Whoa, yes for real for real.


Dr. Sam owns Source Code Psychotherapy Center in Los Angeles where she employs and trains a team of therapists. She also has a forthcoming book with Harper Wave publishers on the 12 Coping Styles we adopt during childhood, which helped us then, and hurt us now, and how we can heal. Dr. Sam also is offering a one day workshop called, Becoming Nourished on May 1st that you do not want to miss. You can find out more about Dr. Sam Rader below, but for now, let's get to the episode.

play

10/07/20 • 51 min

Not only is Kate one of my dearest friends, but this little lady is an absolutely brilliant teacher, a total witch, and on a path that I think you'll enjoy hearing about in this uncertain time. Kate Bass, originally from Anchorage Alaska, now based in Los Angeles, performs extensively in America and abroad in many varying musical genres. She made her solo debut with the New York Philharmonic in Geffen Hall at Lincoln Center under the baton of Case Scaglione; she also appeared in the Emmy-nominated production of Carousel, televised on PBS’s “Live at Lincoln Center.” In recent years, she has sung numerous times at Carnegie Hall (Der Vampyr, The Messiah, Verdi’s Requiem, Elijah), as well as Alice Tully Hall at Lincoln Center (La Farsa Amarosa). Kate made her New York City Center principal debut as Josephine in H.M.S. Pinafore, a role she has taken to Wolf Trap Opera and the Colorado Symphony, and continues to tour nationally and internationally with the New York Gilbert and Sullivan Players. She recently appeared as Princess Ida in Princess Ida at the New York Skirball Center for the Performing Arts, and Off-Broadway at the Saint George Theatre in the world premiere of Trains the musical, as well as the Musical Guest for 24 Hour Plays at the Atlantic Theater Company.


Equally at home in jazz music, Kate has performed in cabaret at the Metropolitan Room and (le) poisson rouge in New York, and at the Hotel Café in Los Angeles. She has recorded as a soloist for numerous film scores with music by Arturo Cardelús, David Stone Hamilton, and others; her voice was recently featured in the film “Pecado Original,” winning awards at both the Austin Film Festival and the Milan International Film Festival. Kate was also the soprano soloist for Iranian singer and setar player Hafez Nazeri’s Grammy-nominated SONY Worldwide release of “Untold” with the Rumi Symphony. Kate Bass is a composer and singer-songwriter; her debut album, “Maya,” was released in August 2012, and her first single aired on British radio in early September 2013. She released her new EP, “More”, in February 2016 and her May 2017 crowd-funded album, “Songs of the Open Road,” debuted Off-Broadway at the Triad Theater in New York City. She has performed her music live to sold out crowds across America, and has been hailed by the press as “easy to love,” “infectious,” and “one of the best vocalists on the scene today.”


Kate maintains a full private voice studio based out of Pasadena, California; as well as coaching many young up-and-coming singer-songwriters and musical theater performers, she has taught as a Teaching Artist in Residence for the Metropolitan Opera Guild in New York City. She teaches master classes and workshops on voice, songwriting, and musical theater all over the world, from Classical Singer Conventions throughout the country to programs in Lebanon and Africa.

Altared Podcast - Earth Day Special with Callee Ackland
play

04/23/20 • 0 min

I learned a TON talking with Callee Ackland. The time is now to be listening to her sustainability wisdom, and practicing many of the tools that she offers on Savage Lifecast. We discuss all things eco friendly. From things you can be doing at home, to items to bring in to help you on your earth loving journey. Oh, and she’s super cool, tremendously intelligent, and so so young. Astonishing.

Callee Ackland is on a mission to arm you with the knowledge and tools you need to spark positive change in your community. Raised in poverty by a single mother with a mental illness, she fled her abusive childhood by joining the US Navy as a translator. There, she was confronted by the horrors of toxic masculinity, nationalism, and America’s greed for resources over human lives, so she requested & received an honorable discharge as a conscientious objector. In her quest to live in alignment with her core values, Callee started her first business at age 23 – Bestowed Essentials – a handmade line of eco-friendly beauty & home goods that are now stocked in over 150 stores around the US & Canada.

In less than 3 years, Bestowed Essentials grew to become the largest soap manufacturing company in South Dakota. Callee hosts the popular Hippie Haven Podcast, a free weekly resource on sustainable living that reaches people in over 60 countries. She also travels the country in a self-converted campervan, hosting zero waste workshops, letter writing campaigns, trash cleanups, and speaking at events such as the World Holistic Expo, Des Moines VeganFest, and Madison VegFest. Most recently, Callee opened Hippie Haven, a zero waste store & community space in Rapid City.
