I recently did an interview with author Polly Campbell the author or Imperfect Spirituality.   What I love about Polly is her authenticity during our interview, and an attitude of telling it like it is.

She states that “Our practices may be imperfect, but our souls never are. Real-life moments sometime provide the opportunity for spiritual growth in a day.

Polly’s new book is loaded with practical tips, examples and stories of people on similar spiritual quests and journeys just like many of us are.  I know you will love this interview with an inspiring, witty and authentic author with lots of gifts based on real life stories to inspire our inner longing to listen to our souls and take action base upon how we are guided by the inner voice.

Recently I was speaking with a good friend who was going through some tough emotional times and he recommended that I read a book entitled “When the Past Is Present”  I contacted David Richo the author and he kindly granted me an interview.

In my interview with David we discuss the topic of transference which I have to admit I was not aware of prior to our interview and reading his book.  I know that many of my listeners will relate to this issue, for our relationships with our parents are frequently played out in our own relationships subconsciously.

If a parent withheld love we can find that we emulate this behavior in our relationships.  I know for me that being demonstrative and loving has always been emotionally challenging and something that I needed to bring to the greater awareness too and focus on.  In my interview with David we discuss not only the topic of transference  but how David recommends transmitting this emotional challenge.

I highly recommend David book “When the Past Is Present” if you are unaware of how you treat the people you love, and want to understand the steps you can take to eliminate this subconscious behavior.

Please take time to listen to our interview and watch the video interview  below.  You can also visit David’s website by clicking here.

In my interview with Dr. Synthia Andrews we discuss her new book entitled ” The Path of Emotions

In her new book Dr. Andrews explores her life’s work about how emotions command our life-force and direct or choices.  Emotions provide rhythm, context and meaning to life. Without them we would find little of value in our successes and minimal learning from our failures.  Emotions convey the essence of being alive, yet most of us spend a considerable amount of time and energy avoiding and controlling our emotions rather that using them.

Dr Andrews states that emotions are a source of information.  Comfortable or uncomfortable, they tell us about ourselves: where we need to grow, what traumas haven’t healed, what we have to offer the world and more.

I hope you enjoy this interesting and informative interview with author Dr. Synthia Andrews as we explore the meaning of our emotions and the power we give them.

Larry Senn the author of “Up the Mood Elevator” is one of the most engaging and interesting authors I have interviewed in quite sometime.

His new book “Up the Mood Elevator” is packed solid with profound principles, fascinating concepts and practical tools to improve one’s ride up and down the mood elevator.    As Larry states in our interview once you understand what causes your mood and emotional changes, the better prepared you are to manage them successfully.   I encourage you to listen and learn while Larry Senn and I explore the in and outs , ups and downs of moods and the simple ways we can control our minds to have a better ride on the mood elevator.
