The Evolving Human

Have you recently learned something about yourself and past relationships through heartbreak? If so then today's episode 22 of The Evolving Human Show will help you see the sides of divorce no one really openly speaks of, the gift of heartbreak pain, and relationship dysfunction! In today's Round Table Talk I held space to speak to three people from all walks of life and culture, about the impact of intimate relationships.  We discuss:  The emotional costs and gains of divorce/separation How the choice to divorce or permanently end the possibility of romantic recovery impacts someone's self-view and worldview around the subject of human compatibility and self-worth or core values. How we deal with rejection and communication difficulties Special shout out to our open and honest guests Roze Merditaj, Thomas Hauger, and Steve Fiano who joined in this important human-to-human discussion. It takes courage to share the most vulnerable moments that make us wiser.  You can reach out to any of us on Linked in if you resonate with our story or have a professional need we can serve.  Lissette Alvarez-Holland ( Host) CEO of Mind-Body Enterprises, LLC.

What do the men have to say about their circles evolving out of this crazy period of change? In this Episode 21, I had the pleasure of hosting two Entrepreneurial men with distinctly different lives and backgrounds around our Evolving Human roundtable to discuss how they are getting back into their own grooves with others in life, where their business minds needed to go, and how they are holding space for so many different evolving human relationships.

And with that conversation, how do we go back into the conscious relationships with everyone." To contact the Panel Helen Gardiner-Parks is the nutrition coach who listens.

Introducing A New Show Format! What do you get when you decide to have more of a Clubhouse app feel to your podcast by bringing together a group of strangers or friends each week? That's what I've been moving towards for the evolving human show and this first series is focused on the question... "Where do we go from here? Post-Pandemic Pandemonium"So every month I will bring a new topic of conversation to the panel and we will explore the same question through a mini-series feel and a new masterminding group point of view. My goal is a return to the art of holding space for a real conversation is really what I'm trying to reproduce for you and you get to be a fly on the wall.  This episode's panel includes: Pamela Crane is a certified yoga therapist and business owner. She actually is the owner of Interoceptive Performance out on the west coast of the United States and she, like me, is a certified yoga therapist ( C-IAYT) who teaches heart-centered entrepreneurs how to stop suffering from imposter syndrome and provides them with evidence-based continuing education and mentoring.  Crystal Holm is coming in as a Fung Shui designer and clutter expert, which is kind of cool. So she's looking at environmental spaces and where do we go from here in our environment. And then the last woman rounding out this panel today is ...Allie Green.  Allie is a somatic movement educator and she's also a business owner as well.  She brings in her work with applied polyvagal theory and somatics so that's looking at the stress response in our bodies and working with or through the body for the experience. This is where you hold the idea of the body keeps the score so in this episode we're coming at this conversation, "Where do we go from here" in the idea of getting our lives back on track. I think we came up with a really nice conversation around the ways we are coming home to ourselves because of the pandemic and the positives around the global reset.  I'd love to hear your feedback.

This is a Bridge Episode and I have a fun new idea to include you all in the conversation!!! This episode is less than 10 minute ( 8:40 to be exact) so listen in especially if you are a visionary human, someone that loves to talk about life and human behaviors and or open to discussing why you are not futuristic in your point of view and views on metaphysical  quantum physics and evolutionary things.  You are invited to be a guest! I want to make The Evolving Human an audio round table sometimes and use it to get us back to the power of the mastermind, as intended before business gurus took over the term to only mean blueprints and seven figure sales. After the intro I give you the details and the way you can submit your ideas and basically try out to be a guest over on the EH show's Instagram page The other option is to join the stage in one of my Pop Up "Evolving Human Podcast Guest Search" Rooms which I am going to be holding several times of the day on several days of the week searching for some great round table guests during the months of June, July and we shall see how it goes in need for August. So since it is a limited time and a great way to get together be sure to connect and follow with me over on my ClubHouse Bio and ring the bell on the bio page so you get a notification.   ( DM me over on IG if you need an invitation-- I have a few more!!!)

Small Business Owner Kate Hartman struggled with depression and anxiety, ADHD, addiction, emotional and sexual abuse from a partner. She describes her journey into the healing arts as "just a vague sense of disconnection that I couldn’t quite place" and found herself on a walk into entrepreneurship after several years on her own journey healing on and off a yoga mat. After 6 months or so into her own private somatic healing practice, COVID-19 hit and she made the choice to shut down even before she had to. Over the initial weeks she attempted to pivot to group and other means of supporting her work but found herself not finding a way to make the business work and decided to bring her yoga into her business and just allow herself to be still, and rooted. In this episode we discuss how it was the best thing she could have done to get her aligned with the work of healing social traumas she now sees as a backbone to her workWe dig into the business of of bringing social justice under the work some yoga therapists are primed to do as Kate believes "The person is political " and so the practice of yoga has to be. This episode links the connection between:Deep inquiry of self into Racism, Consumerism, gender Relations and business building through social entrepreneurship. Here is the Natasha Stovall's article mentioned that inspired her Whiteness on the Couch:https://longreads.com/2019/08/12/whiteness-on-the-couch/  And Sacred Economics (you can actually read the book for free on this website):https://sacred-economics.com/   To contact Kate and become a client or learn more about her evolving model of a yoga practice reach out at https://rootedbliss.com/contact/To view all her offerings and learn more about Kate and watch her evolve visit https://rootedbliss.com/Join The Mind Body Brand Academy Fastest Way for Women in The Healing Arts to Have a Life They Love Working in a Career They Crave Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.

What can you do on the inside but lovely Marcia is like me, we're in the world of yoga, we just kind of getting set up and we're so happy we could be breathing.And I'm really happy to have her because she's doing work that is going to so be needed now. Not only as a businesswoman pivoting herself, but there's so much trauma, so much drama, so much work to be done in, in populations that maybe did not have the practitioner as wise in trauma sensitivity, or as as adapting of it for different body types and things like that. "Marsha: "Awesome. Well thank you so much for having me here today. I am in Alexandria, Virginia. I'm the owner of pies fitness yoga studio.

Cheryl Fenner Brown is a micro business yogapeneur practicing yoga Therapy and like many hands on small businesses, she just had her entire 18 month old business cancelled with the lockdowns 6 months ago! Cheryl says yoga found her in 2001 as she suffered from chronic back pain and became instantly enchanted by the practice.  Now her students appreciate her deeply educational approach to her classes and therapy that weaves anatomy, philosophy, asana, mudra, chanting, pranayama and yoga nidra together for a well-rounded experience. When COVID locked her out of most of her contracted revenue Cheryl jumped online as most were going to and began to evolve into the business she is running now, six months later still looking to deliver sessions online through her membership site as well as store. Since she specializes in: Working with people over 50People with Cancer People with structural injuries and ailmentsWe discuss: The Pivot and ChaosWhere we see the yoga therapy industry making a BIG mistake Great ideas for moving your therapy business online immediatelyHow healthcare has changed to support more yogaWhy self care in and out of work needs to be the first wealth All of Cheryl's great resources for teachers to become better and serve the bigger Post COVID clients. Be sure to grab Cheryl's Free 7 day challenge below.Cheryl: "Yeah. It's been interesting to see the modalities of care of healthcare and even medicine that have changed over these past months. Things like acupuncture and massage and some kinds of like, I'm a Reiki practitioner as well.  I also do Thai yoga Reiki. I can do on zoom. There's a way to do distance Reiki, but all of those hands on modalities, they are stuck right now...I think it's amazing. It'll be amazing to see how that can be pulled in. As people start to physically go back to work, there's going to be a lot of workers that have been enjoying things from home, and they're going to want to keep doing that. So I think that for corporate America, it would be very smart of them to say, Hey, let's hire a yoga teacher...

In this episode I introduce you to a spiritual capitalist's conversation? What? Blasphemy right? No! and that is one of the biggest mental blocks stopping yoga therapists from being the leaders in how we merge the social, physical, mental. emotional and financial healing conversations. Join me as I introduce this idea and the four women who will be showing you their take on making a COVID pivot holy this year, how it helped them and the varied way they are demonstrating a conscious capitalism and spiritual minded business under one niche of the healing industry.
