The Whole Method of healing yourself from the inside out with Rhonda Smith

“I have no problem holding the light while others move through their dark.” What happens when you start to confront the emotional trauma and try to heal? Brad speaks with Rhonda Smith on the problems of the New Age movement and how you can heal by fully embracing the darkness within.  Rhonda Smith Bio Rhonda Smith was born and raised in picturesque Northern California. She spends most of her time between the San Francisco Bay area and the Sierra Nevada mountains with her majestic little wiener dog, Saylor Love. Rhonda shares her message on stage, as well as through podcasting, coaching, and her work with sacred plant medicine. She uses all of these modalities to support people in remembering the truth about who they are. Rhonda believes that only when we embrace the darkest parts of ourselves, do we learn the lessons that lead to remembering and living our deepest truth. The greatest work of our lives is being willing to stand naked with all of our masks removed. The current state of our planet (living earth) and humanity is a catalyst to understand the way we've been living isn't working! This was the spark that ignited Rhonda's mission.  Her newest company, "The Expanded Hueman," is set up to answer the question "What comes next after personal development?"  It's an invitation for us all to stop the madness of endlessly seeking outside ourselves. Her book, The Whole Method, is about remembering how to journey back into ourselves and once there, discover everything we need. Host: Brad Szollose First things, first. How do you say Szollose?
