Episode 054 of Living in Response is another peek into my ever evolving perspectives on planetary activism, upshifting humanity, and Ervin Laszlo’s 10 commandments for a more conscious world.
Sending you so much love and gratitude for being a part of this unedited, real-time, and from the heart documentation of the journey <3
Topics Covered in This Episode:
Summarized (mostly) with AI

1️⃣ Researcher by Nature
I reflect on my innate drive to learn, synthesize, and trace ideas back to their roots. Whether it’s quantum physics, consciousness, or spirituality, I’m constantly connecting dots and allowing my curiosity to lead—and today, I embrace that as my true creative expression.
2️⃣ Why I’m Sharing More on Instagram
After letting my podcast carry the weight of my voice, I’ve decided to start posting daily on Instagram. It’s a new challenge—especially with the 3-minute limit—but I’m experimenting with documenting the process instead of teaching, trusting that clarity comes from sharing.
3️⃣ Lineage, Lineage, Lineage
I talk about my growing preference for learning from wisdom traditions with a clear lineage. It’s not that other teachings are less valuable—but for me, I’m finding deep safety and clarity in knowing where things come from and how they’ve been passed down.
4️⃣ Stop Reinventing the Wheel
For years I believed I had to be entirely “original” to be worthy of sharing—but I’m now honoring that sharing other people’s ideas (with credit) is valuable. Especially when those people have spent decades immersed in the work, and I’m deeply moved by their perspectives.
5️⃣ We’re Already Evolving
I reflect on how I once avoided thinking about the future—until discovering the work of Ervin Laszlo and the Upshift Summit. Now I see we’re not just spiraling—we’re in a transformation. One we can midwife into coherence.
6️⃣ The Summit That Changed Me
The Upshift Summit was the catalyst. For the first time, I heard leaders across science, spirit, and systems theory saying the same thing: we’re in a bifurcation point, and we can evolve upward—if we choose to. That choice begins with remembering who we are.
7️⃣ Project 1GroupLove: Soft Launch
I introduce Project 1GroupLove again, from a new angle. It’s a space for coherence-based gatherings, rooted in science and spirit. The first step? Online events that even my family can attend—a big deal, since I’ve never included them in my spiritual world before.
8️⃣ Heart Coherence = Inner & Outer Change
I go deep on HeartMath: how heart-brain-emotion harmony is measurable, contagious, and world-shifting. Project 1GroupLove is about creating these felt experiences together—because when we change our internal field, the global field changes too.
9️⃣ We Don’t Need Everyone
I explore the science (and wisdom) behind the idea of critical mass. Change doesn’t require the whole world—just enough of us. Like moving grains of sand on a scale until it tips.
🔟 Hope as a Practice
Hope isn’t passive. It’s a practice. Especially when the outer world looks grim. I share how I balance acknowledging hard truths (like climate crisis or inequality) with finding, sharing, and amplifying good news—as a nervous system support and a world-building act.
1️⃣1️⃣ Why I’m Not a Traditional Activist
I talk about how I’ve never resonated with protest-style activism (at the same time seeing it’s importance!) —but I do resonate with coherence, community, storytelling, and nervous-system-safe awareness sharing. That’s my activism. That’s how I serve.
1️⃣2️⃣ The Crisis Is Real—But So Is the Opportunity
I reflect on how many people avoid thinking about the future because it feels hopeless. But the convergence of science, wisdom, and conscious community is telling a different story: this is the time. We are not too late.
1️⃣3️⃣ Should I Start a Book Club?
I wonder aloud if part of my role is to help digest these brilliant, complex books for people who don’t have time (or capacity) to read them. Should I read passages aloud? Summarize and reflect? I muse about formats and accessibility—and ask for your thoughts.
1️⃣4️⃣ The Ten Commandments for a Conscious Future
I read Ervin Laszlo’s “Ten Commandments for Thriving in a World of Diversity” and reflect on what it stirs in me—especially the idea that helping those less privileged isn’t just nice, it’s necessary for evolution.
1️⃣5️⃣ Wealth, Scarcity & My Shift in Perspective
I talk honestly about how my relationship with money has changed. I used to want to be rich so I could help others later. Now I see how that mindset was rooted in scarcity. What if we helped now? What if sustainability—not accumulation—was the measure of success?
1️⃣6️⃣ Why Millennials (Like Me) Need to Hear This
I share how much of this planetary evolution conversation is dominated by older generations—and why I feel a calling to bring these teachings to my peers. Millennials are hungry for hope, purpose, and collective care. I want to help bridge that.
🌀 The Bottom Line:
You don’t have to have it all figured out.
You don’t have to be an “original thinker.”
You just have to care enough to start.
Feed the field. Follow the resonance.
Remember what matters.
