The Elevated Podcast

Vanderpump Rules' Lala Kent is pregnant by a sperm donor, Summer House's Lindsay Hubbard accuses her sober fiance of being on drugs, Kate Middleton sits at home poorly editing photos apparently, single mother comes under fire for posting her 4-year-old on social media, the job market is the worst it's ever been in 2024, people wonder why we pay taxes and vote anymore...all this and more on this episode of The Elevated Podcast.

You may have been seeing headlines about the Taylor Swift deepfake image, or that X is now re-hiring a content moderation team, or that big tech CEOs testified on child safety at the Senate Judiciary Committee. I break down all the tech news from the past few weeks, my analysis, and what to expect this month in tech policy.

Let's recap 2023 (as much as we don't want to lol) and talk about how to rebuild hope and trust in 2024. I discuss my 2023 highs and lows, my hopes for 2024, and my top books of 2023 (because if anything was going to get me to cease crying, it was going to be talking about books).

Love you, don't be hard on yourself during this time - the world is hard enough already.

HELLO FREN - let's catch up. In this episode, I'm sharing more about why I'm not talking about sex anymore, why I think single people are getting screwed by politics and dating apps, why is it so frowned upon to want love, and why we are leaning into fantasy more than real life. I talk about the fascinating case study of Fourth Wing and the backlash against Disney regarding the remake of Snow White. This is a fun one - hope you enjoy!

You can't have sex with the lights on in Budapest, Hungary?! This week on The Elevated Podcast, we talk about the silliest laws that regulate sex that you won't believe still exist...or ever existed really. Enjoy!

Once a week, you feel that icky dread that creeps up around 2pm on your Sunday afternoon. You start to realize that your weekend is almost over, and yet another week at work is approaching. Anxiety, frustration, dread clouds over the remainder of your day with the looming week ahead. You’re experiencing the Sunday scaries. I created this ultimate guide for you to tackle the Sunday scaries. This is for you to listen to every sunday until your sundays feel like a day you can look forward to. These recommendations are purely that - recommendations. They are not all for everyone. Some might resonate with you on different Sundays and some on other Sundays. The intention is to ease your scaries, not worsen them.

Today we are joined by intuitive channel and guide Jenni Adishian. Jenni is such a light and beautiful intuitive who guides her community in manifesting their next-level visions. I have to be honest I really needed a refresh on my manifestation perspective, and Jenni really brought that today and I’m so grateful for her perspective. We spoke about creating financial abundance, her life on the road, and how to rebuild your faith in a higher power.  I hope you love this conversation.

Shubhi is a recent graduate from the esteemed UC Berkeley Goldman School of Public Policy receiving her Master’s in Public Policy in May 2023.

Imagine you find a video of yourself circulating online…it’s a pornographic video. It’s your face, but not your body. But wait...you're certain you’ve never made a pornographic video in your life. But it certainly looks like you. How did this video end up online? Today, on The Elevated Podcast, we are discussing nonconsensual deepfake pornography and how the law fails the people depicted in the videos. We cover First Amendment protections, Section 230, the Copyright Act, and state statutes regarding this type of content and how online platforms have attempted to regulate the distribution of these videos.

thanks for listening

Bryanna Alexis joins The Elevated Podcast to chat about online dating stories, whether we should wait 12 dates before having sex, and if it's better to date older men.

Bry's Links:

Hailee Schwartz is the host of The Rawnchy Podcast where she talks about sex, spirituality, and becoming your most authentic, raw self. We talked about how talking about sex and being a sex worker does not necessarily mean we are goddesses in the bedroom and why saying "men are trash" is detrimental to a functioning society. 

HAPPY NYE! I'm reflecting on my year, telling you about the funny p0rnhub year in review highlights, and telling you a little about why sex might be censored more in 2023. 

HELLO! Welcome back! This episode is about how I'm rebranding The Elevated Empath, how you can wildly impress yourself with your capability by pushing yourself out of your comfort zone, and some other reflections from my first semester in law school. 

On this episode, I'm talking about a question I've received on how to open up to intimacy with a new partner or new person. I share self-intimacy practices as well as notes for you as you journey into a deeper connection with a new partner, existing partner, or yourself. 

DM me on Instagram and let me know what you'd like me to talk about next on the podcast! @theelevatedempath 

Hi!!! I've missed you! For the last few weeks, school has really taken over my whole ass life and I wasn't recording podcasts for a while because a) I didn't have any time and b) I didn't feel like I had much to talk about besides the law. HOWEVER, I did realize that I was letting the perfectionism stand in my way of doing anything, so I decided to record this episode to share how I've been working on releasing that perfection and getting over the slumps I've experienced in school. So glad you're here

The title says it all.

I'm BACK! I started my masters program this week, had my 10-year high school reunion, and have really been feeling so aligned and so good lately and I wanted to share what's been helping me feel connected to that high vibrational divine feminine energy. 

Ever find yourself with the anxiety squirrels when you're waiting for a text back from the person you're dating? Wondering if they'll ever text back, if you did or said something wrong, if you're not even lovable in the first place? This is the ultimate guide for when you're in the anxious waiting period after you're left on read for longer than usual. 

Today, I open my akashic records to ask questions about what the elevated empath community needs to hear most right now. They share messages about the dark feminine energy, asking for what you deserve, stepping into your highest feminine power, challenging yourself, deepening your community, and loving yourself instead of fixing yourself. I hope this resonates with you. Let me know if you'd like more akashic records episodes! 

Bringing you some strong opinions on social media, breaking up with your phone, the societal issues it ignites, and the body image issues that has fed into the plastic surgery money-making machine. Can't wait to hear your thoughts on this episode.

After a hard breakup two years ago, I finally am feeling into the true sacredness of being single. This week on the podcast, I'm sharing my deepest insights on being single, the process of finding an ideal partner, and finding the purest devotion for yourself along the way. 

I'm going back to school! We are educated elevated empaths! This week, I'm discussing some things on my mind - how autonomy equates to empowerment, how we need to strive for resiliency over happiness, how we create something out of nothing in manifestation, how I decided to go back to school despite my terrible past experience, and how we need to stop scrolling and start reading.

This week, Lisa discusses the power of balancing the masculine and feminine energies, how the imbalance is rooted in our day-to-day, how to start tapping into our feminine, why we need to stop saying men are trash, and how to attract healthy experiences with masculine men. 

This week on the podcast, Lisa sits down with her friend Katie after a mezcal margarita to discuss sexting, dirty talk, intimacy issues, first times, and how to safe in sexual experiences. This is a silly sit-down with your girlfriends so grab a drink and come chat with us! 

Lisa barely survives Mercury retrograde only to reflect on her past friendships and relationships and what she gained from them (but after Mercury retrograde so it doesn’t count). She explains the process of growing out of old friend groups and manifesting a new community. Lisa also elaborates on how she found herself and her happiness again after an 6-month magic dark. She dives in on how to deal with rejection and how the right match won’t require extra effort.

This week, I talk about what happened this week in Texas, the cycle of social media, how we can create the change we want to see in the world, how I got my life back in order and created the change in my life, and more.

MINI EPISODE! Using Angela White as inspiration for this podcast episode, I dive into why porn has been demonized in our culture, my stance on porn, why we need to stop saying sexually empowered women have daddy issues, and why sexually empowered people are harder to control. 

I remember it vividly, 6 years ago when the guy I dated and was so enamored with for so long, told me that he had slept with my good friend and former roommate.

I was devastated, angry, confused, sad. Why would either of them do this to me.

That friend and former roommate and I didn’t speak for 6 years.

Until now.

My friend and former roommate, Jaci Resnick joins The Elevated Podcast today to talk about our fallout, how we reconnected last year and mended our relationship, about our relationships to sex in that time and now, forgiveness, how to mend a broken friendship, and so much more.

This week on this solo episode, I reflect on manifestation and our doubt in our abundance.
