Bridge To Being

Your Creative Sparks: We are all a “STORY IN MOTION”. Are you living the story you are MEANT to live? Just as you can CHANGE YOUR ENERGY signature, you can CHANGE YOUR STORY. The QUICKEST PATH to the change you want is to GET ON BOARD with someone who has done it already. How many years have you spent conforming? To your parents’ wishes; to societal norms? What childhood dreams did you leave behind when life took over and you became “responsible”? That’s where your magic lives! Lobsterbird explores the Mayan ruins of Coba with Stephanie McAuliffe, pausing under a thatched roof structure, peering into a giant weathered stone that bears the remnants of symbols. Release the remnants of your old story and enter this portal to the unknown, where fascination springs to life again. Your Travelogue Stephanie talks about her arc of becoming a healer. As a young girl, she was fascinated with witchcraft and magic, but she put that away in order to conform. She went to work on Wall Street for 27 years. At the height o

Your Creative Sparks: Different from travel, vacation, or being a tourist, PILGRIMAGE is about doing some serious inner work. Special places exist in the world which CALL to us, and INVITE us into transformation. Deep inside, we all know what we are meant to do. We just need to make a DECISION and take that LEAP. Your life’s purpose is beckoning you, a calling that sounds like your heart bursting wide open and asking you to be present. Soar on the wings of change with Lobsterbird and her guests, Kelli Reese and Hailey Wiseman. Recorded atop Ek Balam, an ancient Mayan ruin, where Caribbean winds greet your imagination and soft rain kisses your cheek. Feel the tug of Tulum, a place where the jaguar pants, nudges, and cradles. Welcome, Pilgrims, to zero-one birth energy, where every day you have an opportunity to be brand new. Your Travelogue The energy of Tulum is like a soft protective bubble, but in your face. She gently nudges you with a kick in the a** to move forward already. Tulum offers an accelerated

Your Creative Sparks: We DREAM this world into BEing. To create something DIFFERENT that what we currently see, we have to DO something different than we have done before. Books are a great source of information, but *trans*formation takes PRACTICE. Are you a visionary? Are you tapped into your dreams? Investing in your dreams is the starting point of Conscious Creation. The next step is to monitor our thoughts and beliefs about our world and whether or not those thoughts and beliefs are serving the vision of our dream. The final step is to become the person who embodies those dreams, the person who thinks and feels and lives in a certain way in order to achieve those dreams. Lobsterbird walks us up and over the Bridge to Being, where you get to create your own reality and have the kind of life you truly desire. Your Travelogue It’s as if you are creating a painting. You can’t wait for it to become a painting first, before you believe you are the artist. You start with a blank canvas. You get to pick the c

Your Creative Sparks: At any moment, you can choose to see life through the lens of FEAR, or you can choose to see LOVE instead. BEing in a state of pure, energetic potential FEELS like Love. Ultimately, all beings want to be happy and living in an energetic state of love. The way to experience this is to SHIFT our PERSPECTIVE. One of the common threads among spiritual masters was their outlook on the world, and that determined everything. These spiritual masters were guided by their love and compassion, and their enlightened nature was constantly working for the betterment of all beings. Love drove their “being”ness, and that caused miracles. Lobsterbird ushers you to a place where you, too, get to create your own miraculous reality! This power comes from being able to perceive your own mind, choose your perspective, and generate the result you want to see. Learn how as we explore #2 of the Three Power Truths of the Universe. Your Travelogue After understanding that Energy is Everything, the second level

Your Creative Sparks: There is a FORCE we call energy which creates all that we see around us, and WE are all equally part of this force. Energy is like PURE POTENTIAL. This energy is RENEWABLE, UNLIMITED, and largely UNTAPPED. Lobsterbird escorts you to a place where you get to create your own reality! Here, we explore the Three Power Truths of the Universe. These three principles, when applied to our lives, allow us to create the kind of life we want to live, do the kind of work we want to do, be in the kind of relationships we want to be in, and have the kind of experience that would bring the greatest amount of joy, abundance, and love into our lives. Your Travelogue The principles of purification and accumulation: We all have an enlightened nature, but there are things that block us from actually living from this place. Purification is the process of releasing these blocks > which creates a more spacious quality within us > which in turn leads to our ability to accumulate. This process is cyclical. [4

Your Creative Sparks: True CONNECTIONS are deeply felt and create a feeling of FOREVER in an instant. The best PR & MEDIA strategy is NOT about the perfect PITCH. It’s about asking “How can I help this person? At the heart of everything is RELATIONSHIPS. Spanning the vast time and space that is Manhattan, Lobsterbird explores what constitutes a truly magical connection with the Super-Connector himself, Chris Winfield, who has morphed his PR and Media business-building strategies into an all-out mission to connect great people with other great people, amazing opportunities, and their greatest potential. Your Travelogue There are two types of being uncomfortable. The first can work in your advantage: My trainer pushed me outside what I thought was possible. The second can trap you in an unproductive life and work: I hate doing this, but I just keep doing it. [4:45] True connection does not come from seeing just the shiny, filtered, happy part of us. That perfect highlight reel actually keeps us dis-conne

Your Creative Sparks: It’s easy to give up a BAD story, but why might you give up a really GOOD STORY? Your book’s true purpose is to FIND the people you have a SOUL CONTRACT to work with and CHANGE their lives. You can’t say you want to change people’s lives unless you can COME CLEAN about your relationship with MONEY. From the balcony of the Author’s Castle, Dr. Angela Lauria weaves her subversive storytelling magic with Lobsterbird as the sun sets over the Potomac River. After years of seeing the world in black and white, believing she had “lost the lottery” when it came to the good things, Angela learned that re-telling your personal story can turn everything into a rainbow of complexity and possibility. Now possessing these keys to the Queendom, Angela inspires hundreds of authors on a mission to impact the world in technicolor majesty. (WARNING: Explicit Language) Your Travelogue While the Author Incubator launched in 2013, Dr. Angela Lauria’s “Call to Adventure” came in 2007, as she stood on empty i

Your Creative Sparks: Our PURPOSE is to embrace this ever-changing, inter-dependent cosmos in our own Hero’s Journey. #MagicIsREAL The HERO always returns to help others heal. Inspiration floats into our lives like a magical feather, inviting us to follow our imagination, our inner unction… to see more, hear more, know more. Recorded in collaboration with the February Ocean on Long Beach Island, Lobsterbird also invites us to lift our hearts and spread our wings, to answer the call to adventure. The present moment is slipping by and cannot be contained. This whole world is enlightened. Our mission, if we choose to accept it, is to remove the blocks that keep us from seeing it that way. Your Travelogue It is horrible and heartbreaking that death is a part of our reality, but we can rationalize our way out of experiencing the tender sadness of it. However, there are rewards for acknowledging the natural cycles of birth, death and regeneration, and for recognizing our own role in this creative process. [8:03]

Your Creative Sparks: All of the universe is energy, and energy is INFINITE. If ENERGY is infinite (and it is), and WE are energy (which we are), then we have the capacity to have infinite energy. In the equation A>B>C, B is an energetic block. Remove it, and you can WORMHOLE from A>C instead. The Foundation episodes travel deep down to bust the 3 biggest Myths of the Material World. Recording on Long Beach Island, Lobsterbird shifts us into hyperdrive, busting the myth that we do not have enough energy to do all that we want. Magical energetic journeys are possible when we stop blocking the universal flow of infinite energy and start working in collaboration, communion and cooperation with it instead. Your Travelogue When you do something from an energetic foundation, like starting a business, your business is infallible. [8:00] What is energy? How do we normally think about it? How can we work with energy to create the world we want to see? [25:20] Energy Challenge! [34:13] Reiki was the catalyst for Sop

Your Creative Sparks: Time *feels* really real, but it is just a CONSTRUCT. You are not bound by a clock. You actually have INFINITE Time. Time is relative to the PERCEIVER, subject to the context of the OBSERVER. The Foundation episodes travel deep down to bust the 3 biggest Myths of the Material World. Recorded on Long Beach Island, Lobsterbird tackles another big hitter in the world of myth. Board her Spaceship and prepare to experience lightspeed, slipstreams, and wormholes. Time is a tricky idea because it seems our whole world is organized according to the conventional clock. However, the only real time that exists is this moment right NOW, and it contains the past, present and future. You have agency to change time, including the past and the future, because it is all happening right now. Your Travelogue The construct of Time has changed over time. Ancient cultures thought of time as cyclical, working with the seasons and the phases of the moon. Later, we began perceiving time as linear, thanks to N

Your Creative Sparks: Money doesn’t actually EXIST. We have made it up and assigned VALUE to it. Money is an exchange of ENERGY, a currency of love or of lack. We can SHIFT our mindset around money and begin living in ABUNDANCE. The Foundation episodes travel deep, deep down to bust the 3 biggest myths of the material world. Recorded on her Heroes Pilgrimage to Tulum, Lobsterbird teaches us to break apart these core concepts and the hold they have on our lives. Reality is just a projection of our thoughts and beliefs. In an abundance mindset, money is the currency of love and a conduit of commitment. In a scarcity mindset, money becomes a means of usurping power and wielding control to the detriment of others and our planet. Agents for good are needed to re-dream and re-create the world we share. Your Travelogue Are you ready for a major shift? Money is just paper. This piece of paper is only more valuable than another because we say it is. Money only feels real because it drives our lives. [5:05] Let’s br

Your Creative Sparks: The simple act of LISTENING can open the door to healing. When we understand ourselves better, we can UNDERSTAND our parents. Together, we can HEAL the divide between the life that once was and the life that now is. Creating the space to share our stories leaves room for healing to take place. After recording ended on our last episode, Lobsterbird’s mom, Sumi unexpectedly opened up with painful revelations about her past and her own mother. Memories began to surface that revealed a deep poverty wound from childhood, shedding light on the fierce modesty and fiery hard work mindset that would shape Sumi’s every action afterward. Your Travelogue Sumi’s parents lived in the country in Korea. As a young girl, Sumi remembers climbing far into the mountains to gather wood for burning in order to stay warm in the winter. It was hard work to collect a bundle big enough to last the night. Several women would go together, and because of the great distance they would pack lunches. Sumi often had

Your Creative Sparks: Making STRONG decisions can build a bridge to a new world. Good food is a POWERFUL motivator and connector. A healthy and happy FAMILY is the key ingredient of a good life. They say life happens in the kitchen. Pull up a chair and prepare to fill your bowl with motherly wisdom. Sumi is our Lobsterbird’s Mom. She was the first Korean on Long Beach Island. She came to America in 1971, at a time when racial tensions were still high. She married her American sweetheart at a time when mixed marriages were taboo. But for Sumi, she was just building a normal life with a nice man, doing the best she could, raising two strong daughters, and filling their lives with good food and sound decisions. A pioneer does not always recognize they occupy that important role. They just come to the table and serve. Your Travelogue As a child, Sumi learned the priority of family ties in a literal way. Her family was moving by boat from from Japan to Korea when a violent storm rose up. Her father tied the fam

Ep 3 Walking in Crestone II Your Creative Sparks: Look to the quantum field for SIGNS and guidance. Reality is NOT what it seems. Become a CO-CREATOR of reality by taking an active role and responsibility. We CHANGE the world by changing how we LOOK at it. Welcome to the quantum field, where we break apart time and space so we can inhabit new ways of being that alter our reality. Enter into this magical portal, where green pine trees glow like signposts, clouds become delicious marshmallow peeps, and deer are gentle and compassionate members of the tribe who help to show us the way. In this episode, Lobsterbird {Sophia Remolde} returns to Crestone, Colorado where she teaches us that getting lost can actually help us find something—a surrender to the power of the Universe and the energy that pervades all things, an energy which is around and within each and every one of us. Your Travelogue Sophia has traveled the world for over a decade to understand what this world is about. She has studied energy and perc

Your Creative Sparks: You can FACE frustrations, continue asking questions, and keep pursuing what INSPIRES you, despite a world that wants us to be different. Look inside your SOUL. The answers are there. The soul is an incredible strength-giver. SACRIFICE and PAIN can lead to this inward journey, where you discover that you are a SPIRITUAL being, more than just a body. The alchemy is FAITH and HUMILITY. Welcome to an ethereal sanctuary, where we let time and space unravel a bit in order to access a spirit beyond it. In this episode, we travel to New Delhi, India to visit with Bina Ramani. Bina’s home is an island, discovered on a wandering journey down a mud and rubble lane, amid pollution and bandits, dead end and jungle. Despite all of this, she saw magic in this place, a seed of a dream, a space that would offer spiritual nurturing and happiness. Betwixt raucous hammering and lilting bird songs, Bina shares the story of her radiant, multi-passioned life of integrity and service. A life which, much like

Your Creative Sparks: Peel yourself outside and WALK into states of FLOW. Follow your feet into unknown paths and discover new TRUTH about life. The world is evolving, and at this juncture we can FLIP IT and become the inter-connected culture we really are. Face your FEAR, and obstacles DISAPPEAR. Welcome to the intersection of creativity and spirituality. Feel the breeze of inspiration across your brow. Hear the rocky earth crunching beneath your feet as you cross over the Bridge to Being. Hearken to the caw of a winged creature, beckoning us onward, affirming our actions of care and compassion. In our first episode, Lobsterbird {Sophia Remolde} takes us with her on a walk across the looming mountains of Crestone in southern Colorado, inviting us to feel the vast and open sky, the powerful energetic depths, and the harmonic co-creation of the various spiritual groups dwelling and practicing their faith in this very special place.
