Kat Graham: Spirituality & Finding Meaning In Celebrity & Creativity #357

This episode is an inspiring chat with the supremely talented and multi-faceted actress, singer, dancer, producer, and co-founder of Modern Nirvana, Kat Graham. Kat has accomplished the seemingly impossible ability to fully embrace stardom on her own terms without getting lost down the murky path of seeking outside validation in her creative pursuits. As a result, Kat has no qualms about getting raw and vulnerable – something her huge following of 6.7 million celebrates her for. Kat shines with phoenix energy, shielding her soul from the low-frequency vibrations of the Hollywood bubble by using her platform as a force for purpose and radical self-acceptance. She opens up about her life as an actress in her breakout role as a witch in The Vampire Diaries, her life in the spotlight as a self-confessed lone wolf, and her own personal voyage into shadow work and spirituality. I share the mic with my fiancé, Alyson Charles, and her podcast, Ceremony Circle. It’s a fitting precursor to our upcoming talk at The Modern Nirvana Conference on August 14th here in Austin, TX, where we’ll both be talking on the subject of conscious relationships. We’re so grateful for the opportunity to connect with this conscious community, and an impressive lineup of the most influential voices in the wellness and biohacking space, including Dave Asprey and Deepak Chopra. Plus, they’re very generously giving away 30 tickets to Life Stylist listeners.

Are you aware of the dangers of EMF exposure in your home, but have no idea where to start when it comes to finding, and fixing them? Are you concerned about your exposure to the current 3G, 4G, and 5G wireless networks now activated in most major cities? Have you attempted to test the levels yourself using EMF meters you found online and ended up confused and frustrated? EMFs (electromagnetic frequencies) are one of the most toxic elements in our living and work environments. Due to the technical nature of accurately testing for them—and the training required to do so properly—many of us resign ourselves to the fact that we just have to accept them and the consequences they bring in order to use the modern technology we depend on. But you don’t have to. In this seven-part video documentary series, you will follow world-renowned building biologist Brian Hoyer as he tests an entire home, room by room, to determine the source and level of every known type of EMF. By the end of this series, you will not only be thoroughly educated on the various types and sources of EMF commonly found in homes but also of the many mitigation tools and techniques available thanks to the cutting-edge technologies.
