The Conscious Consultant Hour

This week, on The Conscious Consultant Hour, Sam welcomes Psychotherapist, Angel Expert, Teacher, Speaker, and Author, Corin Cartagena Grillo. Corin has helped thousands of people all over the world go from angel-curious to angel-powered. Many years ago, Corin witnessed a miracle that was so mind-bending and extraordinary that it changed her life forever. This intense spiritual awakening led to the discovery of her profound intuitive and healing abilities that, until that time, she had no idea were inside of her. Since that day, she committed to teaching others about the profound magic that lives inside of them and how to heal their heart, minds, and lives fueled by the power of the angels. Caorin is the author of the up-coming book, The Angel Experiment: A 21 Day Magical Adventure To Heal Your Life.

This week, on The Conscious Consultant Hour, Sam welcomes Editor, Publisher, and Author, Jeff Cox. While in college, Jeff Cox was guided to the teachings of Paul Brunton. In the early 70’s, he moved to the area around Ithaca, New York, where he and many other students studied with Anthony Damiani who was a close student of Brunton’s. Guided by Anthony’s inspiration, Jeff helped to build Wisdom’s Goldenrod, a center for spiritual study, and lived there for five years as a resident “monk.” Later, as a devotee of His Holiness the Dalai Lama, Jeff was instrumental in establishing Snow Lion Publications as the major publisher of Tibetan Buddhism. After nearly thirty years, he retired as president/co-owner in 2012. Since then he became a board member of the Paul Brunton Philosophic Foundation, which is the principle guardian of Brunton’s literary legacy. His publishing background has been put to use in editing and publication of Brunton’s unpublished writing—the latest effort is the recently released Instructions for Spiritual Living. Jeff lives in Ithaca, NY.

Segment 1 Sam kicks off the show by talking about the quotes of the day and mentioning preconceived notions, and choosing you own story. Sam talks about how the story you choose to tell yourself, is how the world will see you. Sam moves on to talk about the law of attraction, and how imagining the things you really want alone will make you feel better. He continues to talk about how the law of attraction really isn’t about having more “stuff.” Sam then introduces his guest on the show, Maria Nemneth. Maria talks about how she got into life coaching, and how it began with her own kind of money breakdown.  Segment 2 Sam and Maria talk about why you might need a coach in the first place. Maria talks about the “monkey mind” and the aspect of the mind that is always making us think of doubt. Maria talks about the training the mind on what to focus on-- mostly the things that will serve us and support us. Both Sam and Maria talk about shifting focus and not paying attention to negative thoughts, and that it really is a matter of discipline when it comes to changing your mindset.  Segment 3  When they come back from break, Sam and Maria talk about what exactly is “ontological” coaching. Maria also talks about choosing who you want to be in life, and really focusing on your own qualities that you want to bring forth and contribute. Maria talks about “being” and how she started ontological coaching. Maria reads an inspiring quote that she dug into throughout her life, and how it relates to being willing. “Nevertheless I am willing” is a line of words that changed her life. Maria talks about the science of the brain and how you need to cool it down before you can have a good idea.  Segment 4  Sam starts back from break by talking about how we need to unite-- for example, the climate crisis in our world. Maria talks about a tool to use, that is simply a definition for success that can be helpful to listeners. Maria talks about the “gateway to grace” and how it always starts with gratitude. Simply making a specific list of things we are grateful for can change the way we think everyday.
