Today’s episode features social impact leader Surabhi Jain who deep dives with me about intentional systems change leadership and how tapping into your intuition can deepen your awareness personally and in navigating professional relationships.
Surabhi is the Founding Executive Director of the Toronto Workforce Funder Collaborative, Co-Founder of Women in Power , and creator of Power x Privilege. Surabhi has spent the better part of 20 years designing human development programs, working closely with many Fortune 500 companies to help them change racially biased hiring practices, and building the capacity of the non-profit sector to change systems.
You will get to hear some of Surabhi’s experiences growing up in a progressive family in India that emphasized female education, how equity and intentionality played a role in her moving to the United States, and ultimately how these values now shape her leadership in the philanthropic sector and at the intersection of power and privilege moving toward expansive possibilities of equity and belonging.
You won’t want to miss Surabhi sharing examples of how she practically weaves deep intentionality and intuitive awareness into her life at work and as a funder. We jam on the ways that organizations can do things differently, to help build capacity and to create more meaningful impact for the communities and grantees they are serving.
Surabhi talks about the importance of hard work and leaving the world a better place than you found it. She also shares an awesome story about how her inner alignment that led her to create a job posting that went viral on LinkedIn in the fall of 2023 (you can check it out here).
You will leave this conversation reminded that our inner work must match our outer drive to create change in the world and that it’s never too late to be more intentional (and even more vulnerable) in how you show up personally, professionally and in your community.

Hi friends, I’ve missed you! I’m very excited to be back with new energy for 2024, especially as far as podcast releases and Intention Setting Circles are concerned. It’s not to late for your to join me this Thursday, Jan 11 from 7:45pm-9:45pm EST ($44/PWYC) for my 2024 New Year Intention Setting Circle. If you’re interested, hit reply in Substack or email me here subject line: 2024 Intentions.
While I have a limited number of spaces available for Deep Dive readings available, my January calendar for 1:1 Intuitive Mentorship is officially fully booked (thanks to everyone who has signed up - I’m super pumped to be working with you!) If exploring an Intuitive Mentorship container with me is one of your personal intentions for 2024, please reach out to me over email so that we can set up a free call to connect and assess fit. I will have capacity to add 1-2 new Mentorship clients starting in February so if you’re interested please reach out sooner than later! :)
Today’s solo episode is all about the intuitive block that you create and perpetuate when you second guess yourself. You’ll have a chance to reflect on what voice or messaging is playing in your head and how you notice yourself contracting at the notion of integrating your own inner guidance. You’ll also receive a reframe on self criticism and have the opportunity to expand your perspective to hold a fuller, more accurate accounting of your past memories as well as the unique unfolding of your relationship with your intuition.
Without saying it explicitly, this episode centres the idea of grace as we allow ourselves to embrace the Deep Remembering, travel back in time, and cultivate deeper conscious awareness of inner parts of ourselves that are simply prompting second guessing as an outdated form of self protection (or even protection of others e.g. parents, caregivers etc.) But what about cultivating your intuition? The good news is that lovingly engaging in the remembering and embracing the transformation of these inner parts will support deeper integration, intuitive alignment and self-trust. Welcome to a world of possibility where you can more freely and confidently tap into your inner essence and wisdom!
As always, I am so gratefulf or your feedback, Spotify ratings, and star Apple ratings and written reviews! Also, please please chime in with your thoughts and experiences in the Substack comments and podcast chat.

Hi friends, I hope you’re doing well and nourishing your body, heart and spirit in the best ways you know how right now.
I wanted to let you know that I’m not releasing a podcast episode this week - sorry! Here is a 5 minute voice note instead!
I didn’t have something to say that truly felt aligned to where I and we are at in this moment. It isn’t for lack of content. I have several beautiful interviews lined up to share with you as well as a number of solo episodes on intuition and impact. That said, this week it felt more appropriate to send you a quick voice note letting you know I’m thinking about you and giving permission to do exactly what you need to do right now.
Speaking of which, if something you need is some space for reflection on where you are at, what you’ve been through and where you are going so you can set clear, grounded intentions for 2024, please join my 2024 New Year Virtual Intention Circle on Thursday Dec. 28th from 8pm-10pm EST ($44/PWYC).
The event will include:
* Acknowledging the land and a grounding exercise to root into the experience
* A guided journey to reflect and remember key personal inflection points from 2023
* An individual oracle card and message for each participant with a view to support intentions for the New Year
* A guided journey to align, visualize and set intentions for 2024
* Sharing back insights within the Circle
* Gratitudes & Closing
If you would like to reserve your spot now, email me at [email protected] and I will send you the Zoom link for the event.
Thank you for listening, reviewing and sharing this journey! :)

Want to set intentions with me for 2024? Join my 2024 New Year Intention Circle on Dec. 28th at 8pm EST, details below!
In today’s solo episode, you’re invited to reflect on the way in which exploring your origins can bring deeper understanding and integration to the reality you are creating in your everyday life.
You’ll be invited to reflect on the stories you know, the details you might uncover, and the process of weaving inner peace with what you find (including the gaps), as well as how you can thread insight to unblock limiting beliefs linked to ancestral patterns and trauma that you might not even be consciously aware of.
You’ll hear a story about my own experience struggling to understand why I felt so deeply and passionately about a community program I was helping scale which I thought had nothing to do with my own experience, until my mom revealed how deeply personal and relevant this work was from an inter-generational perspective.
Finally, I share my own thoughts about what it means to “do good work in your life” and why I think the professional work is only as impactful as your willingness to become more present and empowered in your own inner landscape.
Have you been on a journey of discovering your ancestry and making meaning of the stories of those who came before you? I’d love to hear what you’ve found and what’s shifted for you! Feel free to email me or drop a comment on this episode in Substack.

What if corporate social responsibility efforts truly protected and supported life on Earth?
In today’s episode, you’ll hear B. Lorraine Smith, an adviser, writer, speaker and corporate mischievist who holds a vision of an economy that works in service of life. She has been digging deeply into these issues and brings profound and illuminating insights that affirm how much more is possible for humanity, industry and the biosphere.
You’ll hear an incredible story of personal and professional reckoning, embracing inner and outer evolution - even at a moment where more change may not have seemed possible - and the fascinating pursuits and impact that Lorraine found as she pushed through to the other side.
If you’ve ever sensed ‘the truth’ boiling up and felt afraid to act, Lorraine’s story of flipping her 20+ year career in the corporate social responsibility (CSR) and ESG (environment, social and governance) industries on its head offers equal parts inspiration, humour and courage.
Have you ever wondered happens when you follow the paper trail on corporate lobby money? Lorraine reveals what she found and dives into what it means to now conduct corporate “materiality assessments” on behalf of life itself and her methodology that supports this work.
You’ll learn a heck of a lot about the CSR industry, what’s broken in our guest’s opinion, and how we might look at corporate and consumer impact differently. You don’t want to miss this!

Today’s episode is a solo where we dive into the idea of intention setting and how this practice can shape and transform your everyday life.
While this is a topic I’m very passionate about, today’s episode focuses specifically on the defining intentions and exploring the relationship between gratitude and intention setting.
You’ll also get to hear a fun story about the intention setting process that led me and my husband to find (or dare I say “manifest”) our dream home the summer that we got engaged!
You are also invited to a Virtual Intention Setting Circle that I will be holding on November 29th at 8pm EST. This will be an intimate and gentle container for grounding, reflecting and setting intentions for the remainder of 2023. If you’d like to come, message me with your email address and I’ll send you the Zoom details.

Quick Announcement: I will be holding a Live FREE Virtual Intention Setting Event for the month of December on Wednesday, November 29th at 8pm EST. If you’d like to attend please email me here with the subject line “December Intentions” for details and the Zoom link.
Today’s episode is the result of a joyful and loving grief container that former guest and dear friend Mathura “Temwa” held for me this past August (2023) when our family’s beloved boxer Rudy passed away. This episode covers so much incredible ground that you are bound to end up inspired, laughing, maybe crying, and absolutely affirmed in trusting the psychic and nuanced multi-sensory communication that is available when you love a dog or other animal companion deeply in your being.
There was an unspoken knowing that Rudy and I shared from the very beginning. In this episode, you’ll hear about the psychic sensing and synchronistic series of events that led to me bringing Rudy home.
This conversation also surfaced some amazing stories about Rudy that I had forgotten about and which connected me to new awareness of the ways he impacted me personally, spiritually, and in my non-profit career. I credit Rudy with teaching me to more fully see and appreciate the humanity of all people, especially so many individuals that many in our society overlook, step over and ignore.
You’ll have a chuckle hearing how Rudy helped pick my husband Dan and the genesis of Rudy’s majestic force guiding us more deeply into love, outdoor adventures, peace and joy. You may also notice that my grief seems to bring out more casual swearing than ever before (so if you have kids around… watch out for one or two f-bombs.)
Rudy was also an integral force in my life and my 1:1 intuitive healing work - he never missed a session, nor a podcast recording, up to the very end. You’ll hear about how Rudy’s presence impacted my readings (and he still does - even in a wonderful reading today where he came through with a loving message about my client and her dog.)
Finally, you will hear some of my experience leading up to Rudy’s passing in the hope that it illuminates his grace as well as the depth of our bond. While you would never wish to lose an animal you love, I found there was insight and healing that came to me with honouring his departure and receiving the medicine of sharing these stories.
I sincerely hope that by listening you receive some of Rudy’s loving life force and a gentle reminder of how relationships, especially including relationships with animals, can profoundly change who we are and the course of our lives.

Welcome to all of our new listeners and my heartfelt thanks to all of you for listening and continuing to cultivate your intuition for greater joy, empowerment and meaningful impact personally and in our collective existence.
In today’s episode I give you some updates and share some very simple yet profound insights so that you can cultivate deeper awareness as you connect more deeply to yourself, to others and the living world that we share.
You’ll hear about some of the ways I have experienced myself as a bridge in my non-profit career as well as the ways in my being and my marriage and family reflect a bridge that my ancestors might never have dreamed possible.
You are also invited to reflect on the ways in which you are a bridge in your own life and how you might tap more deeply into love, respect and humility as foundations for embodying more presence and connection in life so that we can collectively work toward a better future.
Want to work with me 1:1? I’ve added new appointments for Deep Dive Virtual Intuitive Readings from now to the end of 2023 here. I also have space for one more Intuitive Development Mentorship client, so if you’d like to learn more email me directly here and we can set up a phone chat to explore if this could be a fit.
I am sending you all my prayers for peace and love for humanity.

Imagine growing up disconnected from your culture. Now imagine realizing that this was by design to separate you from the Land, your People, and your Spiritual Self.
Today’s warm and insightful episode features Indigenous changemaker, educator and social entrepreneur, Shannon Murphy. Shannon is Mohawk from Six Nations and of the Bear clan. She is a strong advocate within the Indigenous community and dedicated to the healing and wellness for individuals and families.
You will hear about how Shannon first discovered her culture, unexpectedly, during a college childcare field placement. You will also learn how her journey of self-discovery, truth and reconciliation has shaped her commitment to reciprocity in her community work and her commitment to bringing awareness of Indigenous worldviews and communities to local, provincial and national initiatives.
In our conversation, Shannon shares the invaluable role of her Elders and teachers in shaping her understanding of life, duality, and her place within the interconnected web of existence. You'll gain insights into how these relationships and teachings have influenced Shannon’s perspectives on ego, humility, and authenticity.
You'll hear an amazing story about a transformative encounter in nature that left Shannon and her husband in awe. This spiritual experience served as a powerful catalyst, reinforcing the importance of letting go and being fully present. Shannon's journey and the wisdom she imparts will encourage you to reflect on your own life, the significance of kindness and empathy, and the role each of us plays in preserving the balance of nature.
Shannon is co-owner of Niswi Kwe Consulting which lifts up Indigenous ways of knowing and being, providing an Indigenous lens that supports communities in empowering knowledge mobilization, collaboration and leadership.

Have you ever considered how embracing your unique sensory experiences could dramatically improve your life and even help you find your purpose?
In this episode of The Intuitively Aligned Podcast, Lia Grimanis takes us on a remarkable journey through her life, sharing experiences that define resilience, innovation, and the pursuit of joy.
You’ll hear how as a homeless teenager, Lia made a promise to herself on a shelter bed that would change her life forever.
Lia is one of Canada’s 100 most powerful women and she is the visionary leader who founded "Up With Women," an organization that provides coaching and holistic support to empower women and gender-diverse individuals. Through this organization, Lia helps people break free from the cycle of poverty and chart sustainable pathways to success.
Lia is also a two-time Guinness World Record holder for “Heaviest Vehicle Pulled 100ft By a Woman” and “Heaviest Vehicle Pulled in High Heels”. She was also the first woman in the world to attempt to pull a jet airplane for a Guinness World Record!
Lia's story is not just about inner strength and triumphing over adversity; it's about embracing neurodiversity and tapping into the joy that comes from her unique sensory perception and rich inner world as individual with autism and multisensory phantasia.
Discover how different sensory experiences have shaped Lia’s perspective, and how she uses these insights to guide others toward a life filled with purpose and fulfillment. Join us for an exploration of neurodiversity, the transformative power of joy, and the art of visionary leadership.

In this solo episode, I dive into the power of intuition as well as how to mobilize it to call in beautiful gifts and joyful surprises in your everyday life.
I emphasize the importance of not overanalyzing or rationalizing intuitive downloads and instead recommend a practice of recording them. By noting down your intuitions and the way you perceived them, you can begin to recognize and deepen your unique flavour of intuition. I share some playful personal stories of how I manifested unexpected delights during a period of opening more deeply into trusting my intuition.
The episode also explores intention setting and the role of gratitude in opening up to intuitive insights. I emphasize that intention setting involves not just visualizing your desires but also feeling what you desire and gratitude for the lessons learned, challenges overcome, and the magical moments in life. By holding intentions for ease, grace, and love in all that you do, and by allowing yourself to beam or sprinkle loving energy wherever you go, you can create an energetic environment that attracts beautiful surprises big and small!
This episode serves as an invitation to trust your inner knowing, embrace the practice of logging intuitions, and create a mindset of receptivity to not just that which your heart desires but also life’s joyful surprises.
If you enjoy this episode, drop a heart or comment sharing where you’re at in your own intuitive journey! Or if you’re listening on Apple Podcasts, please leave a 5 star rating and written review (as I mention at the end of this episode, your words and messages really help my morale as an artist and creator!)

How could exploring life after death enhance your connection to your intuition, your physical body, and guide you toward deeper alignment in your daily life?
Join us for a deeply insightful episode of The Intuitively Aligned Podcast, featuring intuitive health practitioner, Registered Nurse, motivational speaker, loss mama, and near-death survivor, Melinda Peterson.
As you dive into Melinda's extraordinary journey, you will discover the profound impact that traveling to “the other side” had on how Melinda has come to terms with loss and reoriented her life’s purpose, including a major career change honing in on intuitive health and the wisdom of our physical bodies.
Whatever love, life and loss you have experienced, Melinda’s story shines a light and offers a unique perspective on navigating grief and embracing your intuition. You will gain insight into how you can hold multiple perspectives and experiences of your reality at the same time.
Melinda reminds us that we can accept complexity and allow ourselves to be cracked open by life’s experiences, while also embracing the beauty of the journey and the illumination that comes with healing and allowing ourselves to transform. Melinda draws on the metaphor offered by Kintsugi, a Japanese pottery technique where broken pottery is put back together with gold, which inspired her Scarlit Coaching practice.
Melinda's story emphasizes the interconnectedness of life, death, and intuition, and invites you to explore the ways in which your intuitive senses can guide you beyond the immediate physical realm. Her insights will challenge you to consider how embracing intuition can lead to a more authentic and purposeful life.
If you're ready to unlock a new level of understanding and connection, this episode is not to be missed.

Have you ever thought about how seeing life from different angles can transform both your creativity and daily experiences?
Step into a world of intuition and imagination in this heartfelt conversation with Darius Bashar, an artist who skillfully weaves photography, vulnerability, spirituality, writing, and community meditation into a captivating tapestry of expression.
You won’t want to miss the story of what catalyzed Darius’s existential awakening. He shares memories and the personal heart-break that sparked him to begin exploring self-guided visualization and a meditation practice that led to a profound personal evolution.
Transitioning from fashion photography to evocative black and white portraits marked a turning point in Darius’s photography career. These portraits mirror his growth journey and the beauty found in embracing ourselves honestly, as we are, in the now. Listening to these reflections, you’ll come face-to-face with your own self perceptions and whether there is anything you wish to shift or release.
Your heart will expand hearing about Darius’s cherished ritual—keeping a childhood photograph in his workspace—an ever-present reminder to love and nurture his inner child. Could this simple practice resonate with you, encouraging more self-kindness? I’ve had a picture of myself as a child on hand ever since this conversation!
Finally, you’ll be called to listen to the whispers of your soul as Darius shares how finally listening to this voice led him to take inspired action creating the Artist's Morning, an online community offering space, support, and structure for meditation and journaling together.
Darius candidly explores the balance between ego and intuition, shedding light on the transformative power of understanding their interplay.
Join us for a juicy episode that uncovers vulnerability, authenticity, and creative expression. As we journey alongside Darius Bashar, let his experiences encourage you to heed your inner whispers, cultivate art that resonates, enrich your soul, and ignite your spirit.

Have you ever considered how a playful practice could transform your intuition, core beliefs, and physical vitality?
In this powerful solo episode, you will hear about the pivotal role of playful practice in my own intuitive journey. I share reflections on my transition from being a serious perfectionist to someone who now infuses ease and joy into almost every aspect of life.
You will also hear about the importance of cultivating intuition and how it requires practice, like any other skill, as well as the significance of understanding your personal "why" as you tap into your intuition.

How would your career and personal life evolve if you let your intuition be your guide? In today’s episode, I talk with Vanessa Valencia about how she has tapped into different aspects of her intuition with significant results in different chapters of her life.
Vanessa openly shares about her young adulthood and how her intuition led her to leave Toronto to pursue her MBA in France. She talks about the benefits of launching her PR career in Europe and why she listened to her intuition and returned to Canada a decade later as she continued to rise in her career. Contemplating the question, “What would I do if I were brave?”, Vanessa eventually took some even bigger risks that ultimately led her to launch an inspiring product, a new career, meet the love of her life, and embrace a completely new chapter of life in a new city.
We talk about big transitions in life, the process of letting go, and how love can surprise you when you least expect it. We dive into how we navigate loneliness and loss while embracing the evolution of our inner knowing. We also explore intention setting as a practice and the healing powers of nature and being of service to others.
Vanessa’s corporate career in strategic business communications spans over 20 years having held senior leadership positions at several Public Relations agencies globally where she led creative campaigns for some of the world’s largest brands including Amazon, Facebook, France Telecom, Ford Motors, Microsoft, and Nespresso among many others. Vanessa now supports business owners to get clear on their business priorities and create communications systems to execute their vision in a measurable and effective way. As a certified trauma-informed Master Life Coach, Project Manager, and Master of Business Communications, Vanessa has helped hundreds of leaders, coaches and entrepreneurs to build transformative practices in their businesses and their personal lives.

What does it mean to authentically show up in a world filled with expectations and complexity?
Today we delve into the transformative journey of self-discovery and authentic living with Jake Ernst. You won’t want to miss this!
Jake helps people identify patterns that are keeping them stuck so they can reconnect with themselves and build a life they love. Jake's core values are authenticity, connection, and creativity, which are the main drivers of his work as a therapist, writer, speaker, partner, friend, and dog dad.
In an open-hearted and candid conversation, Jake reflects on growing up queer in a small town, losing his father as a teenager and becoming the first member of his family to attend university. He reveals that it wasn’t until moving away from home that he started to have profound insights that led him to rediscover his authentic self.
We explore the power of listening and being present, and the struggles we face when our own experiences and emotions are triggered by our close relationships and life circumstances. Jake emphasizes the need to work on personal growth and healing in order to show up as adults in the world, especially as the parents and caregivers we aspire to be. Jake invites us to surrender space and give others the freedom to authentically express themselves, creating opportunities for genuine connection and co-regulation.
Jake also highlights the role of grief in our lives, revealing how attachment injuries can lead to a loss of authenticity and the need to reclaim our true selves. Through embracing grief, we can embark on a healing journey and redefine our understanding of success, happiness, and personal fulfillment.
Tune in to this playful yet transformative episode as we navigate the complexities of authenticity, connection, and personal growth with humanity and realness. Discover the power of surrendering control, embracing grief, and forging your own path towards a more meaningful and fulfilling life.

Have you ever wondered how to access your untapped power within to transform how you live, lead and overcome challenges?
This week we dive deep into the extraordinary life experiences of Larissa Conte, who fuses her wisdom as medicine woman, rites of passage guide, and ceremony designer, and as an accomplished entrepreneur and organization designer to help leaders create cultures of Power that Serve the Whole. Drawing on her diverse array of skills from culture and strategy design to wilderness guiding and somatic trauma healing, Larissa’s work supports teams in a unique and integrative way that creates deep shifts and enduring outcomes.
In this thought-provoking conversation, Larissa challenges societal norms and invites us to explore the depths of human intelligence beyond traditional measures. Drawing on her interdisciplinary scientific background at Stanford University, her diverse lived experiences and how these have shaped her profound sensing into our interconnected reality, Larissa reveals the transformative power of unleashing your inner wisdom, aliveness, and truth.
Larissa candidly shares her own experiences - from receiving the integrative medicine of the vulture after losing her father, to breaking intergenerational spells of shadow power - as she guides us through the process of dismantling limiting beliefs and discovering the potential to simultaneously hold awareness and a state of non-adversary being. Discover how to encounter shadow power without succumbing to the role of a victim or engaging in futile battles and be transformed from the inside out.
Larissa's wisdom opens doors to profound empowerment, healing across time, and a richer understanding of ourselves and the interconnected whole to which we belong.
Are you ready to tap into the magic within and embark on a journey of self-discovery and transformation? Join us for this catalytic episode where Larissa's vulnerability and insights will inspire you to tap into our own innate sensing ability to access your Power that Serves the Whole.
Editorial note from Larissa: Her father died in January 2004, not 2005.
