Have you ever had the experience where the right perons comes into your life at the exact right moment? Or someone shares their perspective, or a resource on something you're struggling with and it's just what you need to move through it?Juli and I explore the concept of these people being like Earth Angels, and what we can do to really open ourselves up to the medicine they have for us.We talk about how, when used intentionally, psychedelics can be a tool to open ourselves up to new perspectives, and Juli shares her passion for helping to guide people through this process.We also share our first hand experiences with solo travel, and how it's been a huge catalyst for each of us to help shift limiting beliefs and outdated perceptions of ourselves and the world.We cover so much in this episode, including:-Leaps of faith as a way of life-How Juli and I met in Costa Rica -Earth angels-Divine algorithm-Law of assumption, Neville Goddard, and “lucky girl syndrome”-How your thoughts create your reality-Questioning your beliefs (The Work by Byron Katie)-The power of travelling to rewire/reframe/get rid of old beliefs-Psychedelics as a tool to open to new perspectivesAnd lots more!If you enjoy this episode, hit the subscribe button and leave the podcast a rating and a review!P.S.

As you know, in these parts we believe that if you leap the net will appear.But what does that actually mean? What constitutes a leap? What makes it more likely that the net will appear (and in the most aligned, ideal way)? What can we do to feel safer to take big leaps of faith? And why is it sometimes so f*cking hard?Casey and I dive into all of this, and so much more, including…The multidimensional aspect of our leaps of faith (aka how the threads that come together to weave our net have sometimes been weaving for a while in advance).The story of how Casey and I randomly met 5 years ago, not knowing we would become such integral parts of each others lives.How making the decision to take a leap/make a life change is often the catalyst for synchronicities and “the net appearing”. In other words - it’s when you decide to move that the universe moves with you.The concept of tests from the universe and how they help us get clear on what we do (and don’t) want.Why surrounding yourself with other people who trust their own intuition is so important, and the role community plays in your sense of safety to take big leaps and make big life changes.This is easily one of my favourite episodes I’ve recorded to date.
