Description
Shedding light on the journey of awakening, The Brilliant Mind explores the depths of ego identity, personal identity, trauma identity, and the mind as we experience it. This podcast isn’t about the science of the mind—it’s about our relationship to it.
Through deep reflection and direct experience, we uncover the mind’s natural state of presence, fearlessness, and love. Join Zakia as she guides you through the process of rediscovering clarity beyond thought, wisdom beyond intellect, and returning to the truth of who you are.
Let’s illuminate the path home—to the brilliance that’s already within you.

Life is emptied in increasing levels as you are ready to see deeper Truths.
Experiencing change socially where it used to torment you.
It's always our own frustration with what and how we want our child to be. or anyone else for that matter that is revealed.
It's all about who you're supposed to become. And you really don't know who that is- you're just here to experience life. And what will you experience? What insanity will you experience? You will bear it ultimately- you are meant to. Because the person that you're supposed to be is the one who has endured that suffering- who has been carved by it, softened by it, strengthened by it- Only you will speak it. Only you will know it. Only you will hold it- the...
This has been the journey of my life even when I didn't know it. But I knew the heartbreak the closer and closer I came to the end. The more I could see the lies and truths. No longer are there reason or justification. so just sitting with these harsh truths. and being like oh my god my mother really is mentally ill. She is a horrible mother. she shouldn't be a mother. sometimes the truth just is. and there isn't a reason or justification. t...
Healing Your Trauma is fundamental for your true life- the one that feels the best to you. the one that flows. the one that feels right.
You can trace any personal story that's sticky back to your conditioned root.
Energy has manifested in this body a million different ways. Now, even with thought gone, the vibration can be felt in the body. The personal energy has cleared so much- that at any moment, I can choose to pay attention to the body and I'll feel the sensation of energy that's moving through it or vibrating through it, through each call all the time. How is this possible? Once upon a time, all I'd be aware of was an occasional sensation of anxiety- I'm sure I experienced it mor...
The storyline is literally made of limiting beliefs. Every thought that is playing- when you see it, you recognize is actually a limiting belief- not just the general statements we know to be limiting belief like "I can" or "can't". But everything nuanced and specific. Pay attention.
The quickest, most effective, most sustaining way to change our children's behavior or anyone's for that matter, is by doing the work on ourselves to be clear and present to make sure we are not coming from our our wounding. Until we do this work- our wounding is enmeshed deeply into us and we are unable to tell and of course control our own behavior. That's what the wound/trauma does- it controls you because at one point, it was absolutely necessary for your survival to be this way.&nb...
When you start to understand how it works, you see that it was born out of an unnatural place and is just a specific way of telling the story that is not needed.
In this episode we talk about stepping outside of yourself to help another human being effectively- what does that mean?
Reflecting on what this means and how it's different than being a "mirror." Affirming again- the mind's narrator is rooted in fear.
I didn't know this was a part of the process- something happens when you heal enough to where you don't just stop at neutrality- you become the antidote for the suffering that you formerly experienced- and you serve as this medicine for others.
