S2 EP 2. Raj Jana: Trusting The Universal Timeline

To mark the first official full-length episode of Stay Grounded Season 2, I’m bringing you my reflection for July – a super vulnerable month of closures, deep questions, and surrendering to forces beyond my control, which challenged my ego in every way.   

 

Tune in now and hear Georgina and I explore: 

 

  • What shifts when you choose to feel the things you’re most afraid of? 
  • Taking the medicine of surrender. 
  • Making the decision to close my coffee club. 
  • The power of accessing future versions of myself in the quantum. 
  • Exploring the cycles of death and rebirth.
  • The interaction of soul, ego, and universal timelines.  
  • Daring to dream and asking the universe for what you want. 
  • The work of evolving as a soul.
  • Working through my core wound with Liber8’s processes. 
  • And more…

 

As I continue along my awakening path, I’m more and more clear that we evolve in a spiral. This is why we often feel a hint of familiarity when facing challenges and growth opportunities. Same core wound, but a different perspective and entry point. A test from life. Have you really learned the lesson, or is there something deeper to excavate and resolve? Such is the curriculum of the soul. 

 

The soul is endless and moves on an infinite timeline. Yes, the ego can get frustrated, scared, or shamed when it feels it should be someone else, doing something else. But the soul knows better. The soul knows that parts of it must die before new versions can be born. The soul knows that surrendering to what wants to happen is the most effective medicine for the nervous system. The soul knows the truth. The question is, can we hold true to what’s real, authentic, and aligned – especially in the face of challenge? 

 

July gave me a ton of opportunities to help integrate these principles and deep concepts, and I’m excited to share it all with you when you tune in.

S2 EP 1. Raj Jana: Welcome to Season 2 of Stay Grounded

After almost five years of podcasting and nearly 300 episodes recorded, I am excited to announce…

 

Season 2 of Stay Grounded!

 

It’s been over 5 years since I launched Stay Grounded. The show started out as a tagline for my first company, JavaPresse, with the intention to inspire you to infuse more passion and fulfillment into your daily life.

 

As beautiful of an intention that is, I have had a hard time sticking to it. As I evolved over the years, so did the show. The questions I asked shifted as I navigated incredible highs and debilitating lows. Through business failures and breakups. Through peak experiences and adventures. Through profound transformations and evolutions.

 

Who I am is not the same young man that began down this path. As I was reflecting on this, I realized I haven’t updated the branding, intro, outro, or feel of the podcast to align with who I am today and what I’m most passionate about stewarding into the world.

 

Hence, the revamp

 

Season 2 will have the same caliber of amazing guests, same depth, and the same Raj you’ve grown to know and love. But instead of just helping you STAY grounded throughout your day, we’ll be sharing perspectives to help you BECOME the most grounded, whole, liberated versions of yourself that you can possibly be.

 

Thank you all for being part of my journey. Thank you for giving me the gift of your attention. So excited to share what’s coming next.

EP 288. Dr. Andrea Paige: Accessing The Wisdom Of Astrology

Once you’ve built the canoe to cross the river, which is the threshold to awakening, you don’t continue walking with the canoe up the mountain. You leave the canoe there. – Dr. Andrea Paige

Dr. Andrea Paige is a dear friend, founder of The Institute for Aliveness, a world class fasting expert, passionate polymath, and gifted facilitator who has held space for 1000s to embark on the journey of inner transformation. I’ve been on a journey of understanding the depths of what astrology has to offer my own journey, and Andi’s guidance in that department has been profound in helping me make sense of present moment challenges and initiations in such a potent way. I’m excited to hear your takeaways.

 

Here are a few things we discuss:

 

  • The significance of the messy middle in the journey of transformation and stepping into one’s authentic self.
  • Understanding emotional inheritance and how early life experiences shape patterns and behaviors.
  • Recognizing the resistance to feeling shame and doing inner work, and its impact on personal growth.
  • The delicate balance between destiny and free will, and the role of astrology in offering insights into life.
  • Emphasizing the importance of listening from the heart instead of the mind to properly grasp spiritual concepts.
  • The significance of surrendering to the present moment and embracing life with a full “yes” in the journey of personal growth.
  • How to avoid falling into spiritual narcissism.
  • Emphasizing the power of nonverbal communication and connecting with nature as profound teachers.

EP 285. Raj Jana: Mastering The Game Of Awakening

What’s been true in my life is that when I declare something to the Universe, the Universe tests me. June has been a wild testing ground for growth, healing, and expansion as I followed through on my commitment to investing in 100 days of Raj. 

The month has been a rollercoaster of emotions and experiences as I’ve navigated my relationship transition alongside some really big business challenges. As always, I’ve stayed true to my desire for reflection, which means I’ve been able to extract some powerful insights. 

And I’m excited to share them with you in this episode. 

Tune in now and hear Georgina and I explore: 

  • The power of choosing to believe that your story is still being written.
  • My process for asking questions that get to the core of who you are and what you actually desire. 
  • Learning to distinguish between intuition and fear
  • What happened when I created a contract with Spirit. 
  • Specific ways that June taught me to deepen my faith in God. 
  • Disciplines for bringing you back on track when you fall into an unhelpful spiral. 
  • The subtle but significant difference between freedom and liberation. 
  • How I learned that I’m unconditionally deserving of love.
  • The power of spiritual forgiveness. 
  • And more…

It’s not always easy to keep your heart open through challenges, disappointments, and pain. What I’ve discovered is that there is ALWAYS wisdom in your present moment experience. Cultivate the courage to be fully with yourself — in all the emotions of the present — and once you’ve processed the feelings, you’ll arrive in the realm of insight, intuition, and clarity. 

I’m learning that I can hold more of life than I ever thought possible, and that’s making me stronger, surer, and more loving of myself. I hope that by sharing what’s working in the trenches of my life, you find something that can inspire your own journey. It’s why I keep showing up month after month and why I’m so grateful for you.
