Stay Grounded With Raj Jana

“The divine itself is hidden like a treasure, like a gift inside of every single one of us.” There’s another dimension to life that’s beyond what we can physically detect with our physical senses. Whenever you call it energy, intuition, instinct [or something else], this essence holds the potential to deepen our understanding of who we are and what we came here to experience in this lifetime. The topic of energy and energetics and the power a deeper understanding of these brings is something I’ve been contemplating and exploring for a while now. Which is one of the reasons I can’t wait for you to tune into this week’s episode. I’ve been wanting to have a conversation about energetics with your new friend - Sheryl Netzky - for a very long time! Sheryl’s unique gift is directing energy in a way that helps people heal. In her work, Sheryl specializes in helping people, families, and businesses unblock themselves, evolve, and heal. She combines multiple skills and is the rare combination

“We’ve lowered the bar so much when it comes to what health and wellness should look like, that I think we’ve lost sight of what healthy actually is.” If you’re an A-Type entrepreneur putting in the work and the hustle to make your business thrive, there’s often a cost. For Chris Michael Harris, that cost was a health crisis. When he hit rock bottom, Chris was a 29-year-old suffering from severe gut issues, which created a knock-on effect emotionally, physically, and mentally. He had deficiencies across the board, he was bedridden, his body was beginning to shut down, and he struggled with suicidal thoughts. His condition was so bad; doctors told him he’d be gone by 40 - best-case scenario, 50.  This diagnosis forced Chris to review his lifestyle and his perceptions of what it means to be healthy. Turns out, he’d set the bar extremely low, and looking back over his life, Chris began to see a pattern of environmental factors which stretched right back to birth. Chris is now 34 and is i

“True self-love is giving yourself the permission to look messy.” It’s that time again! The episode where I pull back the curtain on my previous month to reveal a behind-the-scenes perspective of what it takes to walk the extraordinary path through life. Through these episodes, I’m committed to sharing my journey as authentically as I can. Working on yourself is one of the most potent things that anyone interested in living a more vibrant, exciting, fulfilling life should do. The more I dig in, the more I’ve been able to grow and experience more. But it’s not always easy - and that’s what I want you to take away from these episodes. I want you to see the deep work that goes on behind the scenes. I want to show you how every single thing is happening so that you can step into higher levels of power for yourself. Our human journey - the trials and tribulations, the successes and the failures... everything is here to help us get to that place of absolute power and truth.This is why in these e

“Fear is at the crux of everything. If you do not know how to master fear, then fear is always going to trick you. That’s because fear is smarter than you and more educated than you.” The whole world has shifted over the past year. Situations and circumstances have created a whole lot of unexpected change, which in turn has sparked fear. Fear is an automatic response that keeps us safe. But unchecked and untamed fear will keep you small and hold you back from living an extraordinary life. Fortunately, there are powerful techniques and approaches you can master, which can help you manage your fears - so you can live fearlessly. This episode with Rhonda Britten first aired in 2018. In it, Rhonda shares so much gold about how to navigate fear that I wanted to publish it again.    Rhonda Britten is a master life coach, the creator of the Fearless Living Institute, an Emmy-Award winner, and a two-time Oprah guest who’s dedicated her life to teaching people how to master fear.&nbs

“I choose to live a very intentional life because it’s just so much more fun to create a life by design instead of by default.” When you think about your life, what’s your balance between consumption and creation? This episode’s guest is Charles Clay, who has a powerful perspective for his life. Guided by ‘Vacation Vibration’, Charles has learned how to intentionally craft a life that holds space for deep emotions - at both ends of the spectrum. We tend to push off the more challenging emotions. We resist feeling them or numb them with consumption [such as alcohol or drugs]. These strategies might help us cope with the pain of the moment, but when we refuse to feel into the lows, we also miss out on the peaks. Charles has cultivated an ability to feel it all, empowering him to move through life with a zest and reverence for life that’s capture by the ‘Vacation Vibration’ vibe. It’s a fascinating philosophy and one that’s empowering for people wanting to feel and experience more. “Goin

“You only have one life and you’re here for a reason. Your job is to find that reason.”Are you trapped inside an inherited purpose - where you’re living in the realm of socially dictated ‘shoulds’? Or have you tapped into the freedom that’s available when you find your soul’s purpose? This episode’s guest is Steve D’Annunzio - a spiritual teacher who helps people access their higher self, so they can live more joyful, productive lives. Steve is the founder and owner of Mission-Driven Advisor, which works exclusively with CEOS of money management firms to help them identify their higher purpose beyond just the profit motive. He also founded the Soul Purpose Institute, which teaches students how to discover their life’s purpose and evolve their product or service offering into a business that is powerful, purposeful and profitable. Steve is also a member of the Transformational Leadership Council, which is an international thinktank for love-driven leaders.Steve believes humanity is currently exiting

“All the things that I love most about my life right now are things that I didn’t even know I wanted.” Turns out a lot you enjoyed the annual reflections that I published at the end of 2020. I got a lot of feedback telling me how helpful it was to see behind the curtains of someone who’s growing multiple companies while also creating growth, fulfillment, and richness in my own life. So I decided to share my monthly reflections with you too. I want to show you what worked and what didn’t. I’m also sharing my experiments and new discoveries as well the emotional intelligence and mindset it takes to navigate a life where you make your own rules, set your own path, and aim to win big with whatever you want for YOUR life.“The relationship with yourself is the most important relationship you can cultivate.” As usual, I have my Message Muse - Georgina El Morshdy - here to pull out all the juicy details for your enjoyment! And we don’t hold back. This is a deep-dive conversation where we get under

“There are times I sit with a crystal and it speaks to me beyond what my mind knows.” As I’ve dived deeper into my healing journey, I’ve become increasingly fascinated with different healing modalities. Recently, I got interested in crystals and during my last trip to San Diego, life took me to Phil Fischman’s incredible shop - Beads, Crystals, and More. The more I got talking with Phil, the more I was drawn in by his passion, dedication, and reverence for stones. Phil has been a lover and steward of crystals, gems, and beads for the past 50 years; he’s dedicated his life to uplifting others by connecting them with the healing frequencies contained within the earth’s elements. This incredible episode was recorded inside Phil’s shop. As you step into the episode, allow yourself to be infused with the power of the stones and ancient beads that surrounded us as we talk. “I don’t have to go to the mountains. I carry the mountains in my pocket.” Phil is a gemstone expert, crystal healing p

“The reaction to the trauma doesn’t necessarily stop with the people who experienced it.” Do you have symptoms that you can’t explain? For example, are you overly anxious for no obvious reason? Do you instinctively push people away or intentionally disassociate from difficult feelings in your body? Do you have irrational fears or thoughts about what could happen that don’t make logical sense?If so, there’s a chance you may be experiencing inherited trauma; that’s trauma, which started with your parents or your grandparents - not you. Generational trauma can impact our lives in profound ways. Fortunately, there is something you can do to transform the fears and soothe the feelings. There is a way to break the pattern so that the ancestral trauma stops with you. Mark Wolynn - author of It Didn’t Start With You and the director of The Family Constellation Institute in San Francisco has devoted his life to understanding and healing inherited family trauma. In this must-hear episode, Mark reveals ho

“The game of self-awareness is, inherently, an infinite game.” How do you best play the hand that life dealt you? How can you navigate challenge and trauma and still find a way to unlock the best version of yourself? To help us answer these questions [and more], I’ve got Angelo Keely on the show!  Angelo is the co-founder and CEO of Kion, a lifestyle supplement and functional food company dedicated to helping people live their most vibrant, fulfilling life. He’s also the founder of Create Your Life, a live online program to uncover clarity, purpose, and vision so you can build an actionable plan to create the life, business, relationships, family, or career of your dreams.Angelo is no stranger to challenge after experiencing a series of traumatic incidents in his adolescence and early childhood. He was nearly beaten to death at age 16 and aged 21; he was involved in a deadly bus accident in the Himalayan foothills. Despite these traumas, Angelo has been able to craft a life of meaning and

“Awareness is what enables neural rewiring. It’s the behavior change that occurs when our brains change.” Mental health is a growing problem in our modern world - and it’s a problem that continues to grow as we factor in the challenges of a global pandemic the resultant shifts in the way that we live. Right now, we’re seeing that issues such as loneliness are on the rise - as are levels of depression, stress, and anxiety. This episode’s guests - Mike Cline and Aydika James - describe themselves as analyzers of life. They both have a passion to make an impact in the world of mental health and communication. They believe everyone deserves a happy brain, and they’re on a creative mission to make this vision a reality. YourPetBrain.com is the home of a cuddly, huggable brain with a purpose.

“Mindful eating is a process of connecting to your body more and letting your body be the guide of how you should be eating.” For many people, January represents the chance to start afresh. Health plans often top the list with people choosing new diets and setting resolutions around their food habits. If you’re someone who’s struggled to create long-term results from dieting, or you find it difficult to take control over food, this powerful episode is for you. Most of us haven’t been trained to be mindful eaters. Instead of using food as a vehicle to connect deeply with our bodies, we get lost in emotional or comfort eating. As unlikely as it sounds, there is a way to change your eating habits without the need for calorie counting, meal plans, or regimented diets. Each of us has innate wisdom coursing through our body. We can use this wisdom to guide our dietary choices - and create more health and fulfillment in the process. This episode will show you how. “My clients change the

“Most people think about purpose as this thing you want to do in the world. I think purpose is who you are.” What do you do next when you rip up the conventional rule book and create a situation where anything is possible in life? For me, this reality themed the second half of 2020. After my eight-year relationship ended, I felt heartbreak, shame, and fear, but there was also a sense of release and symbolism. I was free of cultural expectations, and with no roadmap, it was time to create my own. What followed was an intense healing journey guided by mentors, various modalities, journaling, and a north star of my truth. In this episode, my Message Muse Georgina El Morshdy guides us through my journey of becoming. In part 2 of my 2020 year-end review, I share my experiences, lessons, and learnings as I figured out how to navigate an unknown path - which ultimately led to me finding me. “Sometimes you are the medicine you’ve been craving all along - and it takes crises and shitty si

“Choosing yourself is one of the most exhilarating, fulfilling, exhausting, intimidating, scary, and just rich journeys one can go on.” For me, December is traditionally a time of reflection and review. I love to pour over my journals and really take the time to pull out and consolidate all that I’ve learned. Looking back, 2020 has felt like a decade in itself! I’m in awe of how much can happen in a year when you live with intention, focus, and awareness. In this episode, I’m giving you an insight into my journals by sharing all my standout growth lessons in detail. My intention is that you can not only learn from my journey, but also get to see how preparation and certain practices can empower you to unlock your true potential.I’ve found that radical honesty and self-awareness are key tools for growing at an exponential rate. The more you’re able to make sense of how life is unfolding for you, the easier it becomes to bend time and move forward with depth and speed. So if you’re curious t

“You are a special human being and when you realize that, you’ll set boundaries for what you want in your life.” How can you live a life that leaves a legacy and makes you feel incredible about the impact you make? From business to parenting, community, and impact, Dwayne J. Clark is blazing a trail for purposeful living that touches everyone in his wake.I’m so inspired by Dwayne’s story and his achievements. His story has left a mark on my heart and I’m grateful for the example he’s created for others to follow. And while Dwayne is living an incredible life now, it wasn’t always this abundant. As a child, Dwayne experienced poverty. In this episode, he tells the story of the time his mom ‘borrowed’ potatoes from her workplace to feed her children for a week. But as you’ll hear, Dwayne has mastered the art of leveraging his ‘scar tissue’ to raise the bar on living well, with extraordinary results. “‘Living artifacts’ is really about doing something on this planet that lives longer tha

“When you do go inside and you realize that that’s where your strength is, that literally shifts the ground for you.” As a society, we have a very limited definition of what it means to be beautiful. Thanks to the beauty and fashion industries we’ve become obsessed with products that promise to enhance our appearance and push back the years. As a result, lots of people - women in particular - find their value in the way they look rather than the person they are inside. But if the way you look defines your self-worth and value, what do you do when your physical appearance is cruelly stripped away? This episode’s guest - Hollywood Beauty expert Kym Douglas - experienced this first-hand. Kym started out in television when she was just 16. Over the years, she built a career sharing her passion for ALL things beauty on shows including Hallmark’s Home & Family Show and the Ellen Degeneres Show.But In 2018, Kym’s world turned upside down after a routine mammogram revealed she had stage 3

“Presence is the ability to be with what is.” What happens when you sit in the silence and take quality time to be with yourself? Are you able to be present with everything that is? Or do you get distracted easily and struggle to hold all your emotions? Most of us weren’t raised to be emotionally intelligent beings. Instead, we were programmed to shut off and push down the harder, ‘socially unacceptable’ feelings. Unfortunately, this strategy doesn’t work. Our challenge is that the body doesn’t forget. Any emotions that you resist get stuck inside of you instead of flowing through you. In turn, suffering and pain begin to build-up, making it harder to feel a sense of peace and safety within. The good news is you can reverse this programming. With the help of embodiment practices, you can reclaim and rekindle your personal power by embracing the gift of presence. Tully O’Connor is here to help you navigate that beautiful journey with more grace and ease. “So much suffering in life

“When I find presence, that is when intuition can come in.” We don’t only experience grief after the death of a loved one. We also experience grief when our plans are forced to change. Late last year, Phoebe Mroczek was hit by a car in downtown Austin. After choosing the path of positivity to empower her healing, Phoebe was able to explore an even deeper path of self-discovery and self-love. Through the power of presence and by asking a new set of questions, Phoebe learned to refind her center amongst the chaos. By creating space for pauses and presence, Phoebe was able to embrace a journey of unbecoming as she journeyed back to her truth. In this heart-warming episode, Phoebe and I explore the magic that can open up after life knocks you down. Tune in to discover the personal growth that becomes possible when you’re willing to dance fully with whatever’s in front of you. “When your cage is rattled a little bit, it is a new invitation to go deeper.” Phoebe Mroczek is a perso

“Our grief is sacred and it’s a rite of passage.” 2020 has forced us all to explore our relationship with grief. At some level, we’re all grieving - for unexplored plans, for the old way of living, and for loved ones who are no longer with us. You may know I lost my grandmother and aunt recently to COVID-19. As my family moves through our grief, I’m experiencing the pain and beauty of dancing with a rich spectrum of emotions. At times, I’m overwhelmed with pain, hurt, and confusion. Then without warning, my emotions flip to deep gratitude for the memories and the opportunity to deepen the connection I feel with my family. Turns out there is no playbook for grief. Instead, death is a rite of passage and grief is a personal process that we will all experience at some point during our lives. So to help break down the taboos and myths around grief, I wanted to bring Death Doula, Jessica Reis onto the show. “There’s no right way to grieve.” Jessica is an incredible human who’s do

“Vulnerability is just sharing whatever emotion is in you.” One of the reasons 2020 has been so unsettling is because safety is a basic human need. When certainty is stripped away, fear bubbles up - causing us to feel as though the world is unsafe. But despite the chaos, there’s an opportunity to be found in the current climate. When the outside world shifts, we have no option but to dive within. In the process, we can cultivate emotional resilience and tap into a more reliable form of safety… the safety that comes from feeling certain inside your own emotions and your own body. So if you’re craving a sense of peace in this ‘unsafe’ world, this you’ll want to hear what this week’s incredible guest - Elisabeth Cardiello - has to share. “I like to think of empathy as opening this ocean of space so that you can meet the emotion.” Elisabeth Cardiello is the founder of a coffee company called Caffè Unimatic. Created by her father in the 1950s, the Unimatic drip-percolator became a symbol o
