Become the Visioneer of Your Own Life: the Shift Guru and Guests Tell How

Thursday, April 29th, 2010

Apr 26, 2010 – “You are the creator of your own life!” How many times have you heard that and wondered what it meant and what you were to do with the information? You may have heard this and pondered if there were actually people, normal people like you and your friends, who have accepted they are the creator of their lives and, through this acceptance, created better lives for themselves. You even may have wondered what belief or beliefs have the most impact on how you are living your life…what beliefs are supporting you and which are not supporting you. How do you change a belief to live the life of your dreams? And how do you shift one belief and support the others?

Barbara Joye, known as The Shift Guru, is delighted to engage you in a consideration of how you might discover the beliefs most impacting your life, through her podcast, ‘Shift Your Beliefs: Shift Your World’, found on www.EnergyoftheSpirit.com, one of many podcast channels on Yaktivate.com, a global podcast network. In this four part series of podcasts, Joye and her guests address many of the obstacles, outcomes and saving graces which can be lived when you discover and understand your limiting beliefs and how to reframe these limiting or less desirable beliefs so you may live the dynamic and rich life you are intended to live.

In this series, Joye introduces you to four dynamic guests who have each traveled their own individual paths to re-envisioning their own lives. Guests include Andrew Hogan, founder and president of Visioneers, an organization focused on supporting individuals like yourself in discovering the life you are intended to live (May 3, 2010); Chandra Carr as she discusses how, through the Visioneer process and her own initiative, she was able to redefine herself and recreate her life (May 10, 2010); Tom Lietaert, founder of the Intimacy with Money Program, as he shares his story of life before vision and life after; and finally, a revisit by Andrew Hogan in his most powerful position as a Spiritual Ontologist (May 24, 2010). Their stories, their reflections upon themselves and their process, and the outcomes they are each enjoying will support and encourage you to understand the shifts you may choose to consider to create the life you desire and deserve. Enjoy these three dynamic story tellers and life change creators as they take you into a world of possibilities, potentially even the world of your own life change.

Joye addresses these beliefs by interviewing every-day individuals who share with you their life perspectives before they shifted their belief; how their own belief shift occurred; and the effects on their lives after the belief shift. Joye says, “It is through our perceptions of life, our beliefs, that we experience our own life and the world around us.” As each individual creates unique life shifts, Joye recaps the shift experience of each guest so the listening audience may conceptualize the effect of such a shift on their lives.

In these changing times, it benefits us to relook at those perceptions and beliefs that are quietly and persuasively running our lives. It benefits us all to consider the choices we are making, whether consciously or unconsciously, and the resulting impact of those choices on our lives. It is for this reason that Joye has compiled a list of topics, both general interest and every day action topics, which she will be addressing with her guests.

The Shift Your Belief: Shift Your World podcast show is found on www.EnergyOfTheSpirit.com , one of many channels found on Yaktivate.com. Yaktivate.com is an internet marketing and podcast network that features podcast shows on channels that reflect a wide range of topics- from music to style and fashion to how to make positive changes in your life and beyond. Yaktivate.com is always on the lookout for new podcasting talent and for businesses that are seeking a way to reach their niche marketing audience in an effective and cost-effective manner.

Joye has shifted her own life through a series of significant, and not so significant, life events including several relocations around the United States, the loss of personal identification due to the death of a spouse, the ending of a career, her own personal reinvention, and the everyday interaction with individuals as she enhances her life coaching business with the publication of her second book and the development of herself as a motivational speaker.

Have you ever looked about you and decided you would like to make some changes in your life? Do you have an interest in enhancing your life? Or, are there others in your life you would like to assist in enhancing their life? If so, you will find this podcast show to be most supportive and enlightening.

Tune in to Shift Your Beliefs: Shift Your World at www.energyofthespirit.com , www.theshiftguru.com, or www.spiritmedianetwork.com to listen to this insightful and perceptive show. You never know what life shifts you may choose to create based upon insights you glean from those shift made by other individuals. Joye asks, “Your life is your own to create — why not create it as magnificently and powerfully as you possibly can?”

How does your relationship to money affect your life? What hindrances or blockages to living your life fully are connected to your relationship with money?

Thursday, April 9th, 2009

Long Beach CA April 3, 2009

In difficult times like now it is uplifting to listen to people who are making a positive difference. Host Suzanne Toro of the KarmaDharma Radio with Suzanne podcast, brings April showers in the form of interviews with inspiring artists and agents of change. This podcast show can be found on www.LifestyleYak.com, a podcast channel on Yaktivate.com.

Week one, Toro interviews former PussyCat Doll, Carmit Bachar, about Operation Smile and loving yourself.  Week two introduces Apl.de.Ap, of the Black Eyed Peas, sharing his vision about giving back to his former home, the Philippines. Week three brings “Be the Cause’s” Sukh Chugh into the limelight, discussing his service vacation to the Lakota Reservation in South Dakota and how to “Be the Cause.”  Lastly, Toro interviews Tamsin Smith of Project Red about her love for humanity and her vision for her new company, SlipStreamStrategy.

Toro’s interview with Visionary Carmit Bachar highlights her work in creating the non-profit, Smile With Me, for children and adults with cleft palates, something she knows from first-hand experience. Bachar shares the details of her upcoming mission to Peru, her new e-book and her commitment to her new solo music.  Bachar has been around the world performing as a rhythmic gymnast and dancer.  She has been on stage with various rock performers but has been most profoundly impacted by her work with Operation Smile.

During week two, the host checks in with Apl.de.Ap of the Black Eyed Peas about his former home, The Philippines, and his commitment to giving back through education, history and environment.  Apl is a Filipino-American, hip hop musician and music producer. who is the oldest of seven children.  Toro’s interview highlights his compassion for his homeland and his gratitude for the life he has been able to live in the U.S.  He has founded a non-profit that annually gifts his home community to benefit poor children, and he continues to tell his story artistically in his music, together with the Peas and also as a solo-artist.

Week three Toro chats with Sukh Chugh, founder of Be the Cause, about how to be the cause by being in service.  Recently he took a service vacation to an Indian reservation and shares the story to compel others to work in service.  Toro asks Chugh about his organization’s roots and how he discovered a life of harmony by following Gandhi’s advice, “happiness is when what you think, what you say, and what you do are in harmony.”  Find out more at bethecause.org.

Finally, during week four, Tamsin Smith shares her love for humanity and her vision for Project Red and her new company, SlipStreamStrategy.   Smith founded the company in early 2009 with the vision of helping good people turn good ideas into realities that matter to the world.  SlipStreamStrategy works with philanthropists, corporate executives, international organizations, non-profits and innovative thinkers to form creative coalitions – all with the purpose to impact society’s collective challenges.

Each week, host Toro also invites listeners to implement small progressive steps in their daily lives in the “call to action” section of the show.  In this way, she helps listeners actively build on what inspires them to feel the joy of living a life of passion and purpose.  Tune in each week to begin to discover how you can dive into your own Bare Naked Bliss.
