THE CHAT WITH CASS PODCASTMay 13, 2020
42. Solo Episode: Upgrades and Understandings
Tuning in at 5:55PM on a Saturday evening - spilling the truth about shame in my life, an old story that I continue to unravel, how England is one of my greatest teachers, how I just battled some major demons and dragons, and how I have been dancing with the corporate world. It's a light reflection on the last two years of my life, my dance with entrepreneurship, a release of my truth. My bird song today.
Expression is pure medicine. It is art. And if this episode has found you, I am grateful. Grateful to be here, grateful to have someone on the other side listening as I spill my heart strings out. Grateful for the magical ways this universe works.
Life is such a gift, and I am so damn blessed.
THANK YOU FOR BEING HERE! YOU ARE A MIRACLE! WE ALL ARE!
Keep trusting your path, you are exactly where you're meant to be.
41. Solo episode: It's me! I am the sun!

Sitting in our sweet little abode in the Eastern Townships of Montreal, reflecting on this time and this time of being alive and finally being out of England! Sharing the question the runs my life as well as the gift that we all have right now of being alive. Tune in for my latest musings!

39. A Graduation Moment with Sammy Be Love
We met back in 2017 when we were both living in Philly and have shared so many chapters of life and love and different cities and all the things good friends share. I had to have Sammy on this week because she sent me a text last week that lit something major in me, "Bean, I think we're too fucking nice. I think we need to be loud about our magic."
Boom. And the rest is history. This conversation is lead from that sentence.
Hang out with us for this almost 2 hour long conversation as we re-ignite our flames for life!
It's a juicy one...

37. Honey Drip Free Flow : You can't erase truth
It's April 12th. I am laying on the floor on top of two yoga mats. Tons of pillow. Our duvet. Fuzzy blankets. Candles. A warm cup of Radiance tea. The perfect beats playing in my ear. It's raining outside. You get the picture. I just recorded an episode from the most laid back, in-the-middle-of-it-all, kind of state. A bit of the edge of a cold. Sitting back in the space of awareness as I navigate the current energies of my life. I just returned from a trip to Portugal and share more about my pre-trip state, my during-trip state, and how life has been since returning to England.
*update on “You Can’t Erase Truth” - I remembered! We were watching a docuseries called Ancient Apocalypse showing clear evidence of an ancient civilization from tens of thousands of years ago. The series travels to these different sites and I said outloud when we were watching “Wow, you can’t erase truth.” So, there it is!
Topics: Truth is knocking at your door, We are meant to be in service to our energy and being our most vital and alive and grounded selves, Life from the state of awareness.
36. When your ceiling becomes your floor
Can you see…It’ all happening!
And, as all of these miraculous things have been landing, I am seeing these parts of myself that don’t feel comfortable in success. And that is okay!!! And that is perfect!!
Sharing this as I see it as a theme amongst many humans I’ve been talking to lately and wanting to normalize this process.
What can we do? Connect with these parts of ourselves. Use self-inquiry. It's likely that they are scared or trying to protect you. Its like showing up in a totally new world and not knowing your place. Some things take time and love.
Here’s to letting our ceiling become our new floor.
Here’s to expanding and allowing the process to happen.
We are meant for miracles baby!!
SHOUTOUT TO JOSIE GATLIN from @eat_pray_yoga for sprinkling this concept of your ceiling becoming your new floor years ago in that yoga class in Philly ❤️
35. Higher Ground : Musings from my last walk of 2022
34. A Living Transmission of Hope
of the train as the world speeds by. and realize the impermanence of it all. of every moment. every bite. every smile. every trip. every adventure. every sip of water. every moment coded with its own specific whisper of meaning. all placed for the listening. it’s heartbreaking, really. when you realize how simple it all is. how easy it can all be when we stop trying to figure it out. how the dots connect. how the heart makes sense again. how it all is more beautiful than what we dreamt up. as we live the moments we’ve only lived up in our minds. and weeks or months later, you are witnessing it all come to fruition. zoom out for a moment, to realize the omen of it all. it’s heartbreakingly beautiful, really. the weaving that we allow. the goodbyes that rename themselves as hellos. each moment a gateway to the divine. each moment a portal into something richer than what our fingertips could describe to our lips. the world spins by. and we move with it.
33. In my wonder, I am moved by grace
This weeks spoken word flow birthed through me on a run in Discovery Park last week. The words poured out and here they land, in the gift of your ears. Thank you for listening. I invite you to presently receive the activation that these words bring.
i wonder
i wonder how these wandering feet
landed me here
as the woman that i am
on the land that i stand
sometimes i wonder
how i got through those heart break and doubts and disbeliefs
the sneaky feeling of not enoughness leaking into every corner of my life
those moments of losing all faith
in something greater
sometimes i wonder how i got through those moments
where i saw no whispering hope
when the walls caved in
and robbed every lick of potential possibility in my life
and i still put on a face that held it all together
but press your hands into my heart in these moments
and you would have felt
the emptiness
and the need to be held in my crumbling
i wonder how i traversed around the world
pioneering down alleys and unmarked roads
meeting new parts of myself
as this world gifted me her full
permission
and in my wondering
i am moved by grace
at the grace
that has moved me into the pull that is my life.
32. Energy doesn't lie
I got lit up + engulfed into flames last night. And then turned into a watery mush today. Something huge is happening inside. A massive click in understanding my soul mission around this concept of 'rules' and 'guidelines' of how and when to speak.
I believe in the way of The New Earth. And in order for us to get anywhere as a collective, we must trust what the energy says, not what the person is saying. We must let go of the 'guidelines' and trust the guiding force of the energy that we are presented with. And we must be brave enough to speak it. To say it. To pose the question. To share our reflection. To say that thing that we are all dancing around. The human story is waiting on us for its evolution. Waiting on us to understand that love isn't about saying the 'nice' thing -- love is about speaking to the honest energy running the show.
31. A plea, from my soul to yours.
These days aren’t about fighting against. These days around about rebelling against. They are about going on the most noble journey one can go on - inward. The pilgrimage into your own soul. Your own human. And trusting enough to let it all burn away - the house, the relationship, the friends, the dreams. Trusting enough to let it all fade, until the diamond, the treasure of you comes alive.
You will know it, because you will feel it. And you won’t be able to contain it. But contain it you must. Hold it, you must. Like the ancient wise tree that you are -- your roots are deeper and wiser and richer than you know.
So please, hear this beg. Hear this plea. As a plea not from me to you, but from the soul in me to the soul in you.

This episode is filled to the brim with deep deep heart wisdom. You will catch yourself having “aha” moments as you listen to Steve Roberston share about the collective connections he has made in his journey. I met Steve while on a walk in my neighborhood of Topanga and was immediately drawn to his higher understanding of the details of this collective world. He shared about the power of sound and resonance and about his huge movement to play sacred sounds on sacred sites around the world for global healing. And asked if he would share some of his wisdom on this podcast. Steve encourages us to stop. And ask “Why am I here? What is my purpose? What can I do to contribute to a more loving + kind world?” And to keep knocking. To keep showing up. To keep asking the question and being still and quiet to hear the answers. And to come back home to being into a metaphorical state of innocence. He speak to the power of this time, and you, and us collectively owning a new possibility through our language and words. Steve shares the three layers of self-actualization from his book The Power of Choice: Success + Your Life Purpose. You can feel Steve’s heart and passion in every single word he shares.
