In this deeply inspiring episode, I sit down with David Hulse, a gifted spiritual guide, healer, and teacher whose journey from a fundamentalist Christian upbringing to an expansive, love-centred spirituality is nothing short of remarkable. David shares how a profound awakening reshaped his understanding of God—from an external, judgmental figure to the divine presence within each of us—and how this realization bridges ancient wisdom with modern science. Together, we explore releasing inherited beliefs that no longer serve us, the transformative power of “I AM” consciousness, and what it means to move from a 3D material perspective to a 5D heart-centred way of living. This conversation is a call to lightworkers everywhere to embrace their role as co-creators in humanity’s awakening and a reminder that we are, at our core, love, light, and joy.About David HulseDavid Hulse is a seasoned spiritual guide, minister, author, and healer whose journey from a fundamentalist Christian upbringing to an inclusive, love-centred spirituality bridges traditional doctrine with contemporary insight. A profound awakening early in his life reshaped his understanding of divinity and revealed humanity’s deep interconnectedness. As Founder and Spiritual Guide at the Academy for Spiritual Awakening, David blends wisdom from diverse traditions with modern science to inspire people to move beyond belief into direct experience of the divine within. His teachings challenge limiting dogmas, emphasize unconditional love and gnosis—direct knowledge from Source—and guide lightworkers through the shift from a 3D material world to a 5D heart-centred consciousness, empowering global spiritual evolution.Connect with Davide Hulse:Websites: davidhulse.comhttps://www.heartlightcharlotte.org/About Anita AdamsI’m Anita Adams, your host and the founder of Joyful Journey, an organization devoted to teaching The Wisdom Way—a practice that helps individuals reconnect with their authentic selves and create lives filled with meaning, well-being, and joy.

In this episode, I share a heartfelt story that emerged during a walk with a dear friend—one that invited me to take a deeper look at my own lingering doubts about worthiness. It’s a vulnerable reflection on what it means to fully accept ourselves in all our messy, beautiful humanness. I talk about the power of acknowledging, rather than suppressing, our emotions and how doing so allows us to stay aligned with who we’re here to be.

There’s a deep wisdom that reveals itself when we walk in nature—especially when we give ourselves the time and space to walk long distances. In this episode, I share some of the powerful lessons I learned while leading a group of women on a 115 km trek along the Camino in southern France. This was more than a physical journey—it was a soulful one that reminded me of the importance of surrender, the value of discomfort, and the beauty of simply holding space for others. I also reflect on the parable of the moth and the cocoon, a story that perfectly illustrates why we need to struggle sometimes in order to grow.Order Your Copy of Whispers of the Soul here: https://mybook.to/WhispersofthesoulAbout Anita AdamsI’m Anita Adams, your host and the founder of Joyful Inspired Living, an organization devoted to teaching The Wisdom Way—a practice that helps individuals reconnect with their authentic selves and create lives filled with meaning, well-being, and joy.

In this episode, I share how my understanding of prayer transformed from a childhood ritual into a sacred, soul-nourishing relationship—one that began unexpectedly through quiet walks in nature. What started as stress relief slowly became heartfelt conversations with God, and those “God Walks” opened me to a deeper sense of peace, clarity, and connection. Join me as I explore how prayer evolved from obligation to dialogue, and how listening to the still, small voice within has become my most powerful spiritual practice.

In today’s episode, I share a powerful lesson that first found me as a young actress and has shaped every chapter of my life since: the idea that by pursuing our dreams, we uncover the path we’re truly meant to walk. Life rarely follows a straight line—there are twists, crossroads, and unexpected turns—but I’ve learned that when we slow down, tune in, and listen to that quiet inner voice, our soul will always guide us forward. If you’re standing at a crossroads or wondering what’s next, this episode will help you reconnect with your heart’s desires, trust your inner wisdom, and take that next inspired step toward a life that feels truly aligned and alive.

Have you ever wondered how well you listen to your inner wisdom? In this episode, we explore the three types of inner listeners—those who don’t recognize their soul’s whispers, those who hear them but choose not to follow, and those who embrace them as their guide.

Have you ever stopped to consider how the stories you tell—about yourself, about others, about the world—shape your reality? In this episode, I sit down with the insightful Adele Fedorak to explore story intelligence—a powerful concept that goes beyond storytelling and into the very fabric of how we perceive and navigate life.Adele has spent over 30 years immersed in the art and science of story. Through her work coaching professional women and leading small, curated "story pods," she helps people uncover, refine, and reshape their narratives in ways that bring greater clarity, confidence, and connection.Together, we dive into how heightened awareness of our stories can transform our understanding of self and others, why cognitive bias keeps us locked in certain perspectives, and how we can develop the ability to hold multiple truths at once.

In this episode, I open up about a deeply personal experience—the return of what I call the “worthlessness gremlin.” For years, I believed I had overcome these feelings of low self-worth, but when they unexpectedly resurfaced, I knew it was time to take another deep dive into this shadowy part of myself. Through this journey, I uncovered valuable lessons and found ways to navigate these feelings with greater strength and clarity. If you’ve ever wrestled with feelings of unworthiness, self-doubt, or low self-esteem, this episode is for you. Together, we’ll explore how to face those dark corners within and uncover the healing and growth waiting on the other side.If you haven’t already, I encourage you to pick up a copy of my book Whispers of the Soul, which teaches The Wisdom Way to higher consciousness.Order Your Copy of Whispers of the Soul here: https://mybook.to/WhispersofthesoulAbout Anita AdamsI’m Anita Adams, your host, and the founder of Joyful Inspired Living, an organization dedicated to guiding individuals toward their authentic selves for a life of purpose, passion, and joy.
