This week I want to share a short clip from the advanced workshop I ran last month, "Speaking from the Heart," where I tell the story of a crucial lesson I learned from one of Milton Ericksons students.

Milton Erickson is one of my heroes. He's widely regarded as the father of modern hypnotherapy and was often referred to as the "Wizard of the Desert" because of his extraordinary ability to create profound transformation.

In this short recording, you'll discover:

- The surprising "real secret" behind Erickson's legendary transformational impact (hint: it's not his famous language skills).

- What Erickson communicated that allowed people to experience deep, lasting transformation without trying to "fix" them.

- The subtle but powerful message you send to your audience, depending on how comfortable you are with yourself.

This insight has dramatically shifted how I approach speaking and working with groupsit's a fundamental key to making a real impact.

Big love,
Jamie

This week, I'm excited to share a fascinating conversation with my good friend and colleague, Dr. Joseph Riggio.

Joseph and I have been friends for over 25 years, often exploring deep questions about human potential, transformation, and what it takes to live a truly inspired life.

Recently, Joseph sent me a thought-provoking message from sunny Florida, challenging me to reflect on the relationship between our inner perceptions and external reality. He asked:

"How do we reconcile the 3Ps concept that 'it's all just thought' with the undeniable external feedback we constantly receive from the world around us?"

(If you've been following my work over the past decade, you may have noticed that I tend to avoid the phrase "just thought"—and for good reason.)

Joseph’s question sparked an insightful conversation between us, giving me a chance to clarify my particular understanding of Sydney Banks’ teachings, as well as to explore the profound practical implications of how we perceive and navigate reality.

I'm delighted to share our recorded discussion as this week’s podcast episode.

Here are a few highlights from our conversation:

• Why transformation is always ontologically based and embodied (and what that means in practical terms).

• How our experience of reality is essentially a simulation—and how deeply understanding the "rules" of this simulation can profoundly impact your life.

• The critical difference between transformation and mastery—and why confusing the two can seriously limit your growth.

• Why direct engagement with reality is essential for genuine insight and meaningful change.

We also explored the intersection between my approach (informed by the Three Principles) and Joseph’s work, which integrates NLP, hypnosis, and his unique "MythoSelf Process."

One thing worth noting: what you’re going to hear is a conversation between two friends and colleagues, comparing and seeking to better understand each others’ “maps of reality”. As such, it’s not a coaching or teaching session (though there’s still plenty to discover).

This conversation is particularly valuable if you're committed to making a meaningful impact—whether as a coach, speaker, leader, or in your own personal journey of transformation.

Big love,
Jamie

This week, I'm sharing a clip from one of my recent program calls, focused on discovering your authentic voice.

Here's a glimpse of what's inside:

- The unexpected insight I had about authenticity while attending a public speaking course.

- A surprising comedy lesson that completely changed the way I think about developing your voice.

- Why your audience might actually be your greatest ally in expressing your true self.

If you've ever wondered how to communicate more authentically and resonate deeply with others, this video is for you.

Tons of love,

I’ve got a short, 4-minute clip that dives into a question I hear all the time:

Are non-duality and the Three Principles really different? And what if you love them both?

In it, I explore why they’re actually pointing to the same truth in different ways, a key distinction that sets the 3 Principles apart, and how you can blend whatever resonates to spark new insights - for yourself, your loved ones, and your clients.

If this catches your interest, I think you’ll really enjoy this conversation.

Tons of love,
Jamie

This week, I'm sharing the full recording of the masterclass I delivered on Wednesday, exploring a topic that's clearly resonating with a lot of people: Impostor Syndrome.

Here's a sneak peek at what's inside:

- Why impostor syndrome appears exactly when you're on the right track (and what it's trying to tell you)

- The most overlooked element in becoming an inspiring, transformational speaker (it’s not about technique)

- A live coaching demonstration on dissolving impostor syndrome in real-time

If you’ve ever held back from stepping into your full voice—whether with a client, a group, or an audience—you might find this particularly valuable.

Tons of love,
Jamie
