Welcome to the inaugural episode of the Conscious Builders Podcast, with co-hosts Optimysticॐ Marc and Intuitive𓂀 TanJoin us on our journeys of building spiritually aligned brands and conscious communities, and inspiring others to do the same.In this episode, we explore our unique paths, share insights, and provide valuable tips for those looking to create conscious communities.About Intuitive𓂀 TanIntuitive𓂀 Tan is a healer and podcaster, has spent years in the spiritual realm, helping others connect with their higher selves. Her journey began with a personal loss that transformed her understanding of healing and spiritual growth. Tan has a wealth of experience in energy work and has recently embraced her role as a leader in the spiritual community.Our story begins in Ile Des Chenes, Manitoba. At our first meeting, we discussed projects and ideas of documenting our journeys through a new podcast. This decision stemmed from our desire to help others build conscious communities and share the stories of those already doing so.The Importance of Timing and PatienceOne of the key themes in our conversation was divine timing. We initially struggled to meet, but instead of forcing it, we allowed the universe to guide us. This patience led to our eventual coffee meeting, where we shared our visions and solidified our partnership.Embracing Authenticity and LeadershipTan emphasized the importance of authenticity in her journey. For her, stepping into leadership meant overcoming old patterns and embracing her true self. This transformation is not just personal; it's part of a larger movement towards spiritual awakening and community building.As we discussed our experiences, it became clear that many people are on similar paths, seeking connection and understanding in a world that often feels disconnected.Using Tools for GuidanceIn our conversation, we also explored the use of tarot as a tool for guidance. Tan shared her insights on tarot card reading and how it can help individuals tap into their intuition and higher selves. The cards drawn during our session—the Divine Masters, Mother Mary, and Green Tara—symbolized healing, empowerment, and divine feminine energy, reinforcing the themes of our discussion.Building the Awakened Service Providers NetworkAs we delved into our projects, Marc shared his vision for the Awakened Service Providers Network, a community for heart-centered, soul-aligned difference-makers. This network aims to provide a safe space for like-minded souls to connect, share resources, and support one another in their journeys.Tan's insights on creating affirmations and oracle decks resonated with this vision. Her approach to energy work and healing emphasizes frequency-based connections, which aligns perfectly with the network's mission.Produced by the Podcast Positive Media Network.www.PodcastPositiveMedia.comAwakened Service Providers Networkwww.ASPN.appThe ZEN HUTwww.TheZenHut.caConnect with Marc Paludhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/marcpalud/Connect with Tannis Legaryhttps://www.facebook.com/tannislegarythezenhut

ARTIST: Sophia-Maria SatoriABOUT SOPHIA-MARIA SATORI: Music infused with spirit and intention, crafted to uplift, awaken, and inspire remembrance of our true essence. Through transformational soundscapes woven from poetry, notes, reflections, journals and insights collected over time, Sophia-Maria Satori invites listeners to reconnect with their original divine frequency and inner light.With love, light, joy, and blessings—may these songs be an offering for your soul’s reawakening.The Meaning Behind the NameThe artist name Sophia-Maria Satori was chosen for its deep resonance with Gnostic and esoteric wisdom, symbolizing the journey from separation to wholeness.Sophia represents divine feminine wisdom and awakening. She embodies the anima mundi, the soul of the world, guiding humanity’s passage from material illusion to spiritual remembrance, integrating duality into unity. Maria embodies grace, purity, and compassion, the receptive aspect of the divine feminine that nurtures the birth of inner light. She symbolizes the emotional sea of transformation, the “Star of the Sea” guiding through trial toward illumination and spiritual manifestation. Satori, rooted in Zen, signifies sudden enlightenment, a moment of pure seeing beyond ego or reason, revealing the timeless nature of being and the harmony of all creation.The Collective EssenceTogether, Sophia-Maria Satori channels a sacred feminine triad of wisdom, compassion, and realization. This fusion becomes a living alchemy: descent into depth, gestation in stillness, and revelation through awakening. It serves as an invocation to transcend the Veil of Forgetfulness and embody the radiant truth of divine oneness.Sophia-Maria Satori This experimental music project was produced by The Podcast Positive Media Network.
