Humans are creatures of habit, pattern and repetition.
When we find something that works, we latch onto it and put it to good use.
But what if that something is NOW stunting our growth, or worse, hurting us?
In this episode, Drew breaks down how our beliefs, attitudes and habits can go from serving us to HURTING us.
On both a personal and societal level, our inability to shift our perspective and try something new (and possibly scary) may not only stop us from evolving but may even have catastrophic consequences...
If you've been feeling that you and the world is hitting a wall, this episode is for you.

The world "out there" can look crazy, incomprehensible and so "wrong" by our own perspective. We struggle to understand people, we judge them, we criticise them, we hate them!
But they are probably just like YOU! They probably have the same ego attachment that you do, they may just have more "tools" at their ego's disposal.
In this episode, Drew talks about the crucial importance of ego awareness at all levels of your life and in every interaction, no matter how big or small.
As they say, "the devil is in the details".

We are seeing some major changes in our outer world.
The shadows are being brought to light. Lies are being exposed within our governments, institutions and global corporations as the world becomes increasingly aware of many sinister plans.
This is all really promising but we have a very important responsibility in all this.
We must remember what the real issue is, what allowed all this deception and manipulation to take place to begin with: our state of consciousness.
In episode 7, Drew dives in deep and unapologetically, sharing some uncomfortable truths about our present situation and reminding us how crucial it is to put the inner work first at all times.
This is an intense and informative episode.

We have so-called "laws" in our world.
"Laws" created by men to control the behaviours, actions and, often, beliefs of other men.
But there are fundamental laws that govern our reality that are scarcely even mentioned in day-to-day life despite them being infinitely more powerful than any man-made ones.
In Episode 5, Drew shines awareness on the The Law Of Polarity in particular.
He highlights the numerous means this Law has of expressing itself - Masculine and Feminine Energy being a prominent one - and highlights what we can do to realise and embody both ends of our own polarity to then become TRULY conscious creators of our own reality.
If you feel divided within yourself, at odds with the various parts of your life and not really in control, this episode may have some insight for you.

*This is a re-upload of Episode 3, due to a technical issue*
In Episode 3, Drew shares the importance of presence and being "now-focused" as opposed to being past or future focused.
So many humans spend their entire lives never fully present and in full awareness of the NOW which is the only thing that TRULY exists - it seems almost crazy to suggest that many people, therefore, don't fully exist.
Drew unpacks the reasons why this is so important and makes special reference to Eckhart Tolle's Best-Selling Book "The Power Of Now."
Mind and ego identification can be a dangerous path to walk so if you've found yourself being drawn into that addictive state, tune in to this episode.

Episode 4 of the podcast exposes a really important concept we're all faced with as human beings.
Our world so often encourages this idea of "identity".
Our friends and family subconsciously enforce it, the world of advertisement preys on it, it seems inescapable... and what if it is the main cause of your suffering?
Drew unveils what "The Identity Trap" is, breaks it down into simple terms, draws on its scientific relevance and then offers extremely useful and easy ways of stepping out of it and into the limitless expanse of reality.
This is a really juicy, fun episode that offers a lot of substance and perspective for everyone.

In Episode 2, Drew hones in on more detail about fear, how it shows up in our lives, how it can be useful and how we can improve our relationship with it so that it no longer occupies the driving seat of our consciousness.
Drew asks listeners to consider the truly illusory nature of fear; how it is ALWAYS grounded in an unconscious existence ruled by shadows, not light; and Drew also offers helpful suggestions for navigating it more effectively and practically.
If you wrestle with fear in your life and struggle to maintain a permanent state of awareness over it, this episode may have something for you.
