111. Real As F**K! Soul Healing With Alyson Charles, The Rockstar Shaman

Are you ready to get your soul healed by the Rockstar Shaman? Our guest in this episode is Alyson Charles, and she might just be the cure for what ails you. She's spent the better part of two decades casting the psychological demons not only from her own life but the lives of countless spiritual aspirants of all stripes. There are a lot of healers out there, some real, some not so much. What makes Alyson uniquely impressive is her authentic, vulnerability and all around realness. Through her work as a TV and radio host, she’s brought meditation and sacred ritual to the mainstream in a powerfully creative way. In this interview, Alyson and I dive right into the nitty gritty trauma, shame, doubt, and fear that keep so many of us in the spiritual and professional kiddy pool for way too long. Thankfully, with some self-awareness and a little grace, we don’t have to stay there. We can all use the power of meditation and self-love to put our big boy and girl pants on and get on with living to our highest potential. You’re going to learn exactly what it took to shake Alyson loose from her self-imposed limitations, and how’s she mastered the art of playing big and charging ahead in all of her full, authentic glory. Her story of going from suffering to salvation to service paralleled my own so profoundly that I even had a mini spiritual awakening myself during the recording. Then I almost edited that part out. I found it embarrassing. I texted Alyson for some guidance. She said to keep it in, so I did. In the interest of realness, come what may. It brings me great pleasure to present Alyson and her profound, yet lighthearted perspective on life to you and yours this holiday season. Gift the gift of growth by sharing this extraordinary episode with someone you love. Or even someone you tolerate. This one goes out to your true self. May you love him/her, and never be afraid to let yourself shine.
