158. A Balancing Act: The Pursuit of Financial Bliss, Self-Love and Authentic Leadership with Josh Trent

How do we balance it all?  How do we prioritize self-care, nourish our bodies and minds, build healthy relationships, pursue our passions, meet the responsibilities and expectations of society, find success and generate satisfactory income, all while leading joyful, meaningful lives authentically from the heart-center? The answers to these complex questions are thoughtfully explored in today’s episode with the exceptional Josh Trent. Josh is the host of the popular and much-loved Wellness + Wisdom Podcast, and you may also recognize him as a guest from Episode 139: The Sacred Polarities Panel Part I. One topic that stood out to me today was Josh's concept of “unconscious capitalism,” a refreshing take on the true meaning of currency as a tool and modified form of energy and time. We delve into an array of other powerful topics and paradoxes, such as cultivating self-love through all of our seasons and missed-takes (mistakes), the gender confusion of our time, aspects of trusty leadership, and finally, what it means to awaken Aphrodite. Josh's genuine and thoughtful answers provided insights and wisdom on various topics, making this episode a must-listen for anyone looking to improve their overall well-being.
