On today’s episode of Can’t Be Contained, I’m absolutely thrilled to be joined by best selling author, podcast host, and founder of the School of Becoming, Tracy Litt! Tracy sits down with me for a discussion revolving around the powerful concept of elevating our consciousness and the profound impact it can have on our lives and relationships.

We discuss the incredible growth and transformation that can come from becoming more aware and less judgemental, as Tracy details her journey of evolving into a highly conscious woman as well as the strategies she’s used to model said evolution for others. Tracy outlines the different levels of consciousness, as well as how they impact one’s ability to handle the various challenges and opportunities life provides.

Tracy and I also break down:

➤ Music as a tool for healing

➤ Navigating social activism

➤ Modeling Behaviours

So if you find yourself curious about these different dimensions of consciousness, or are simply looking to integrate more self love into your life, I promise this episode is filled to the brim with practical insights and advice. Tracy’s wisdom will no doubt help you stay grounded, learn to trust the process, and embrace the duality of pain and growth.

Get ready to become the HIGHEST version of yourself.

It’s time for another brand new episode of Can’t Be Contained! Today, I’m honoured to be joined by author, breathwork facilitator, and founder of the Living Proof Institute, Sachin Patel! Sachin sits down with me this week to share his journey into the world of breathwork, which began with his Wim Hof training in 2018.

We discuss the holistic benefits of breathwork, including its impact on physical health, mental clarity, and emotional well-being. Together, Sachin and I delve into the science behind breathwork, as he highlights how it can aid in detoxification, improve metabolic health, and even assist with issues such as snoring or chronic pain. Our conversation touches on often overlooked contributors to quality of life, including stimulating the vagus nerve. These elements, when harnessed correctly can have profound effects on maintaining optimal health.

Sachin and I get into:

➤ Identifying dysfunctional breathing

➤ Optimizing light exposure to our circadian rhythm

➤ Lung capacity as a predictor of lifespan

Though breathwork seems simple at first glance, it’s an immensely sophisticated practice that holds tremendous power to impact one’s everyday life. So whether you’re simply looking to deepen your existing breathwork practice, or you’re new to it altogether, Sachin has the wisdom you need to transform your health from the inside out!

So put those headphones on, breathe in, and listen.

I’ll also touch on:

➤Neuroplasticity and thought patterns

➤Mind-body connection

➤Spiritual and Scientific Balance

Welcome back to a brand-new episode of Can’t Be Contained, where today I couldn’t be more stoked to welcome entrepreneur and personal development advocate James Wedmore! James graciously shares his journey from a logical atheist to embracing spiritual growth—all the while stressing the profound impacts these changes have had on his success in the entrepreneurial space.

Together, James and I share personal stories of managing moments of self-doubt on stage, and the power of words in fostering authentic relationships. James explores the idea of sacred reciprocity and recounts impactful personal experiences with financial hardship that have shaped his business ethos. Our conversation is a deep dive into the idea that true growth often stems from adversity. James shares how the “tightrope walk” that is living in Sedona has proved effective in gaining self-management tools, and how the environment one lives in can shape personal and professional development.

We traverse topics like:

➤ The importance of self-worth in preventing burnout

➤ Genuine connection in business

➤ Manifesting goals

So join James and myself as we delve into just exactly how one maintains balance while pursuing ambitious goals. One shouldn’t cancel out the other, and with James’s powerful insights, listeners can be sure professional pursuits do not have to come at the price of authenticity!
