ADAM GRANT/GIVE AND TAKE: Why Givers (Often) Succeed 05/15/13

julieannturner@creatorsguide.com — Wed, 15 May 2013 19:38:21 -0700

Givers vs. Takers:
The Surprising Truth about Who Gets Ahead

Why some people rise to the top of the success ladder,
while others sink to the bottom?

Is it "survival of the fittest" - the strongest, and most selfish, win?

Surprisingly, as much as it may seem so - no.

It turns out that success involves a blend of effective networking,
collaboration, influence, and leadership skills -
plus an increasingly important factor:
our styles of exchanging value - our "reciprocity profile."

Julie Ann's ConsciousSHIFT guest Adam Grant, Wharton professor and author of "GIVE AND TAKE: A Revolutionary Approach to Success," reveals that those who succeed at the highest levels are not selfish takers - but generous givers.

In Adam's extensive research, it turns out
that in professional interactions,
most people operate as either takers, matchers, or givers.

Whereas takers strive to claim as much value as possible
and matchers aim to trade value evenly, givers are the rare breed
who contribute to others without expecting anything in return.

Adam shares that these three styles
have dramatic effects on our success -
revealing how one of America’s best networkers
developed his connections,
why a creative genius behind one of the most popular shows
in television history toiled for years in anonymity,
how a basketball executive responsible
for multiple draft busts turned things around,
and how we could have anticipated Enron’s demise four years before the company collapsed —without ever looking at a single number.

As fellow visionary and author Dan Pink says of Adam's GIVE AND TAKE:
"Every so often a book comes along
that changes the way you see the world ...
[this] is one of those books. ... [GIVE AND TAKE] offers a path
for how to become the sort of giver who flourishes
without being fleeced."

Sound interesting?

Then join Julie Ann and Adam to explore an approach to work, interactions, and productivity that is nothing short of revolutionary.

This new view of success has the power to transform
not just individuals and groups,
but entire organizations and communities.

KRISTIN ENGVIG/WIN: Inspiring Women Worldwide 05/01/13

julieannturner@creatorsguide.com — Thu, 2 May 2013 13:48:14 -0700

We are living in times where focusing on the possible - on new opportunities - is vital. New ways of being and leading in the world are required to navigate in unknown waters. As we open ourselves to new solutions, women and their feminine aspects have a vital role to play. Each of us embodies the power to influence, to attract, to decide – and to lead. Julie Ann's ConsciousSHIFT guest, Kristin Engvig, is the creative mind and engaging spirit behind the face of W.I.N. - Women’s International Networking (W.I.N.) - the internationally recognized platform engaging thousands of people and leading a movement that drives innovation, fosters diversity, gives hope and inspires potential. Kristin sees raising feminine and global awareness as the key to creating a sustainable future ... one that develops, empowers and connect leaders with a feminine, authentic and global vision - and one that inspires and guides communities, corporations, supranational institutions, political organisations and entrepreneurs worldwide. Growing up on the turbulent west coast of Norway, surrounded by mountains leading to the open seas, Kristin understood at a young age how important it is for all of us to be connected, and to do something in your life that will leave the world a better place. From Norway, Kristin knew that ‘going global’ was just the thing for her to do. Having started out with major multinational companies like JPMorgan, Citibank and Innovation Norway, Kristin saw and felt that there was a gap in our workplaces and how we dealt with each other and the world at large. Working as a consultant with global companies, she also felt that people should be able to bring their creative sides into the workplace, too. This gap was transformed into a vision for W.I.N.: to ‘bring a more feminine, global and sustainable vision to work, communities and life.’ As Kristin shares with us, WIN - and our shared future - is international • feminine • authentic • practical • innovative • geared toward creating opportunities • interconnected & holistic. And the rules are simple: be open, be open to learn, willing to connect, quick to contribute, ready to take risks, committ, never accept the unacceptable, and open to have fun and receive and feel the magic. Join Julie Ann and Kristin, as they share why women are moving away from “business as usual” to business based on sharing and caring values. Women are driving change, often behind the scenes - and why, now more than ever before, it is time to mobilize, to inspire and to manifest women’s dreams and visions.

JULIA CAMERON/SAFE JOURNEY: COMFORT FOR FLYERS & OTHER ANXIOUS SOULS 04/17/13

julieannturner@creatorsguide.com — Wed, 17 Apr 2013 15:52:52 -0700

Oliver Demille, author of FreedomShift and LeaderShift 03/20/13

julieannturner@creatorsguide.com — Thu, 21 Mar 2013 13:23:36 -0700

Oliver Demille, author of FreedomShift and LeaderShift - explains that, approximately every century, a nation makes a shift - either toward freedom, or toward force. In 1776 we had a Freedom Shift in America. In 1913-1936 we experienced a Force Shift with the implementation of the Federal income tax, the Federal Reserve, the change in the election of Senators and finally the redefinition of the general welfare clause. DeMille has studied nations and history over the last 3,000 years and says we’re in line for a coming shift — a world-scale shift - rather than just a national one, due to the increasing global nature of our technological society. Will we experience a force shift or a Freedom Shift? The momentum, DeMille claims, is toward a force shift. But he also shares that there’s much hope for a FreedomShift. In any shift, 95-97% of the people are not even involved. They simply don’t care. This leaves 3-5% of the populace to make things happen, and that number is split between the people wanting more force and those wanting more freedom. So, in essence, if we want a Freedom Shift, we only need to comprise about 2.5% of the population. Seems doable — especially with the rising interest in Liberty in this country. DeMille shares that three important choices must be made by 2.5% of the population in order to insure a freedom shift. 1) We need more entrepreneurs. Historically nations with a solid base of entrepreneurs experience freedom. Or if force is imposed on them, it doesn’t last long. Entrepreneurship and Slavery do not co-exist. 2) We need more voracious readers and independent thinkers who get involved in the fight for freedom. You can’t be a nation of sheep believing everything you see in the media or read in tabloids and be free for long. People who read voraciously tend to think more independently and thus value freedom more. 3) We need more tribal leaders. A tribal leader is someone who leads other people with similar interests. But tribes go beyond interests and niches. DeMille explains, “When your relationships with one person or more in a given niche reach the point that you deeply care about these people, and they about you, you are part of a new tribe.” (FreedomShift) In FreedomShift, DeMille does not throw his support toward any candidate, party or ideology. Join Julie Ann and Oliver, as he gives a clear overview of the various players and how we can more proactively work together for a FreedomShift this time around.

Marianne Williamson THE LAW OF DIVINE COMPENSATION & SISTER GIANT 03/06/13

julieannturner@creatorsguide.com — Thu, 7 Mar 2013 10:48:58 -0800

What if Divine Law governs the condition of our bank accounts, not just the condition of our spirits and our relationships? Well, of course, it DOES! Julie Ann's ConsciousSHIFT guest - Marianne Williamson, spiritual teacher and #1 New York Times bestselling author of "The Law of Divine Compensation: On Work, Money, and Miracles" - reveals a path to abundance by way of a powerful spiritual principle called the Law of Divine Compensation. The Law says that when we lack faith in our higher selves and focus on the negative, we create and perpetuate our own negative circumstances; conversely, when we have faith in God and in love and all that can go right in our lives, we open ourselves to receive the miracles the universe is holding for us. While millions have suffered heartbreaking and seemingly intractable financial woes, every one of us possesses the power to believe that something else is possible, that our destinies can change, that a miracle can happen. This simple shift in how we think can have a monumental effect on what happens next. Join Julie Ann and Marianne to discover how, through The Law of Divine Compensation, the power of your thoughts can attract — or deflect — miraculous breakthroughs in your life. As Marianne reveals, the Law is not about hoping, dreaming, or wishing we'd win the lottery; rather it is about faith as a mental and emotional muscle we must exercise in order to benefit from. This powerful spiritual principle will us help us overcome financial stress and unleash the divine power of abundance. If we have faith in God's promise of prosperity for all, we need never fear the future. Julie Ann and Marianne also share discuss SISTER GIANT - the movement whose purpose is to support a higher level of contribution among women who want to increase our efficacy as activist and/or candidate, in order to uplift the tenor of American politics - and in so doing help heal the world. Marianne is a bestselling author (Return to Love, Healing the Soul of America), a world-renowned teacher, and one of the most important inspirational thinkers of our time.

Dr. Dan Botkin/THE MOON IN THE NAUTILUS SHELL 02/06/13

julieannturner@creatorsguide.com — Wed, 6 Feb 2013 15:37:04 -0800

During his 2nd Inaugural Address, President Barack Obama called for us to protect our "National Treasure" - stressing the importance of addressing critical environmental issues, including global warming. “The path towards sustainable energy sources will be long and sometimes difficult. But America cannot resist this transition; we must lead it. We cannot cede to other nations the technology that will power new jobs and new industries – we must claim its promise. That is how we will maintain our economic vitality and our national treasure – our forests and waterways; our croplands and snowcapped peaks.” In a fascinating exploration of environmental issues - from Boston to Beijing and back - and of new views on our dynamic, global ecosystem, Julie Ann and her ConsciousSHIFT guest Dr. Daniel B. Botkin - nationally renowned ecologist and author of THE MOON IN THE NAUTILUS SHELL - shed light on our roles as conscious participants in this fragile system of which we are a powerful part. Dan shares his extensive research of American forests, waterways, and sustainable energy, and what needs to be done today to preserve our “national treasure.” Dan is best known for the development of the first successful computer simulation in ecology, a computer model of forest growth that has developed into a sub-discipline in this field, and has been a pioneer in the study of ecosystems and wilderness. He has been involved in research on global warming and its possible ecological and environmental effects since 1968. Dan has helped develop major national programs in ecology, including the National Science Foundation’s Long-term Ecological Research Program and NASA’s Mission to Earth. He is also the author of Powering the Future: A Scientist’s Guide to Energy Independence. .

Randy Gage/RISKY IS THE NEW SAFE 12/05/12

julieannturner@creatorsguide.com — Thu, 6 Dec 2012 10:10:46 -0800

Everybody is playing it safe, because they think that's the smart thing to do. But in today's new economy, playing it safe is the riskiest thing you can do. All the rules have changed and they're going to change more tomorrow. Julie Ann's ConsciousSHIFT guest, Randy Gage - NYTimes Bestselling Author of "Risky is the New Safe" - explains that disruptive technology, changing cultural trends, a breakdown of the education system, government and corporate corruption and malfeasance, and a societly that is some ways evolving - and in other ways devolving - has moved the target. And it keeps moving, faster every day. The people who create prosperity in the new economy will be in front of the trends, anticipating them instead of naively reacting to what happened yesterday. It doesn't matter if you're an individual or a company. To create wealth or success today, you have to become a critical thinker and blow up conventional wisdom. When everyone is zigging, you want to be zagging. Let's face it - tired, old conventional thinking won’t get you to success today. From monkeys replacing human laborers to cloning, ocean-floor real estate development to asteroid mining, to virtual-reality adventures in holosuites, Randy provides fascinating insights into what the future holds and how people and companies can best prepare for it. Join Julie Ann and Randy to discover why following conventional thinking is no longer sufficient, and how becoming a contrarian and critical thinker will allow you to succeed in ways you've likely not even yet imagined.

Jeff Foster/WHO YOU ARE IS WHAT YOU SEEK 11/07/12

julieannturner@creatorsguide.com — Thu, 8 Nov 2012 08:27:20 -0800

We spend our lives seeking love, acceptance, wealth, success, and even ‘spiritual enlightenment’ in the future. We long to be complete. Yet right at the heart of life there is an intimacy, a simplicity, a completeness that is totally beyond words – and which cannot be reached through any effort of ours. In our exhausting attempts to change, to improve ourselves, to become perfect or enlightened - or perfectly enlightened - we end up ignoring this wordless intimacy which exists here and now – an intimacy which is really our true home, and the end of all our seeking. Julie Ann's ConsciousSHIFT guest Jeff Foster, author of "The Deepest Acceptance: Radical Awakening in Ordinary Life," invites us to discover the ocean of who we are: an awareness that has already allowed every wave of emotion and experience to arrive. What if we were to deeply explore the nature of our experience, not with the aim of ‘fixing’ it – but of seeing the wholeness within it? Jeff invites us to think of this ‘nonduality’ as a ‘finger pointing to the moon’ (as they say in Zen) - directing our attention to the wholeness of all life, to the Oneness which exists here and now. Despite all the ways in which we try to run away from uncomfortable and painful experiences, the possbility of discovering ease and freedom lies right in the midst of those experiences. It is beyond comprehension, yet it is as obvious as breathing, as familiar as the feeling of your heart beating in your chest, as ordinary as the sights and sounds and smells appearing in this room. Ultimately, who you really are, and life itself, are inseparable. They are not-two, they are "non-dual" - they are intimate. This is a timeless truth that goes right to the heart of all the world’s spiritual traditions, and ultimately right to the heart of modern science, too. How can we bring an effortless yes to this moment? How do we stop running from “the mess of life” — our predicaments, our frustrations, even our search for liberation - and start flowing with all of it? Join Julie Ann and Jeff to discover unexpected new ways to a enter a space of absolute acceptance and joy, no matter what’s happening in our lives ... and to stop trying to “do” acceptance … and start falling in love with “what has already been allowed.” The message is always the same: What you are, in the deepest sense, is what you have always been seeking. Jeff Foster studied Astrophysics at Cambridge University. In his mid-twenties, after a long period of depression and illness, he became addicted to the idea of ‘spiritual enlightenment’ and embarked on an intensive spiritual quest for the ultimate truth of existence. The spiritual search came crashing down with the clear recognition of the non-dual nature of everything, and the discovery of the extraordinary in the ordinary. In the clarity of this seeing, life became what it always was: intimate, open, loving and spontaneous, and Jeff was left with a deep understanding of the root illusion behind all human suffering, and a love of the present moment. Jeff was voted #51 in Watkins Mind Body Spirit’s 2012 list of the world’s 100 Most Spiritually Influential Living People.

Dr. Friedemann Schaub/FREE YOURSELF FROM FEAR 10/31/12

julieannturner@creatorsguide.com — Wed, 31 Oct 2012 16:25:08 -0700

Does the Holiday Season - or ANY busy time in your life and work - trigger anxiety and stress for you? As human beings, we are equipped with powerful healing resources – the mind, body and spirit, which enable within all of us change, growth and healing - as ‘normal daily tasks.’ The connection of mind, body and spirit represent a perfect healing system, equipped with infinite possibilities to respond to even the most adverse circumstances. However, most people don’t know how to access and utilize this innate potential – and find true self-empowerment. The integration and alignment of mind, body and spirit provides us with the most powerful healing resource. However, negative emotions, inner conflicts and limiting beliefs are common factors, which prevent us from utilizing this enormous potential to change, heal and succeed. In general, our core beliefs act as our personal laws of the universe. They shape how we view and feel about ourselves and the world, and they determine the choices we make and actions we take. The foundation of our core beliefs can be either our most powerful internal resource or our highest obstacle. So how do we remove these blocks and achieve accelerated and profound change, healing and self-empowerment? We have the power to stay balanced and live up to our potential when fear and anxiety seem so easily to get the best of us, according to Julie Ann's ConsciousSHIFT guest Dr. Friedemann Schaub, author of The Fear and Anxiety Solution, who says the answer lies in the subconscious mind - the source of our most challenging emotions and the key to the wisdom they offer. “The more unresolved fear and anxiety you've stored in your subconscious, the more untapped potential awaits you,” Dr. Schaub says. Join us to discover step-by-step guidance, as Dr. Schaub explains how to transform fear and anxiety into healing catalysts that lead to greater confidence, self-worth, and success to access your untapped power —and “turn up your inner light to reflect who you really are.”

Steve Farrell/GLOBAL ONENESS DAY 10/17/12

julieannturner@creatorsguide.com — Thu, 18 Oct 2012 10:01:30 -0700

Imagine a world where everyone feels welcomed and wanted... Imagine a world where everyone knows, deep in their hearts, that they belong... Imagine a world where we all recognize that we are part of one global family... It may sound like a dream, but it’s not. This world is possible now! And the time has come to make this dream a reality. That’s the intention of Global Oneness Day: To remind you to remember the truth of our Oneness, that all of life is connected, and to inspire you to celebrate and appreciate this truth with others. Join us as Julie Ann hosts Steve Farrell, co-founder with Neale Donald Walsch of Humanity's Team and Global Oneness Day, which was launched at the United Nations in 2010 - and will celebrate the 3rd Annual Global Oneness Day on Oct. 24, 2012. On ConsciousSHIFT, you'll hear about the Global Oneness Day Telesummit (http://globalonenesssummit.com/) - featuring luminaries such as such as Ken Wilber, Jack Canfield, Lynne McTaggart, Neale Donald Walsch, Barbara Marx Hubbard, Michael Beckwith, don Miguel Ruiz, Jean Houston, Joan Borysenko, Bruce Lipton, Gregg Braden and many more - and about all the other Global Oneness Day activities (see http://www.global-oneness-day.org/what-you-can-do/), so you may personally participate in this worldwide celebration. Register here for Global Oneness Day: http://www.global-oneness-day.org/ What is Oneness? Oneness is more than a beautiful word. Oneness is the energy of love that lies within you and connects you with all of life, helping you to recognize yourself in everyone and everything. Mystics of all traditions have experienced and shared the concept of Oneness throughout the ages. And, now, this idea of oneness is being reinforced by leading-edge science, which confirms that we ARE all connected in remarkable ways – from the genes you inherit to the air you breathe to the consciousness you share. The old worldview in which you are somehow competing for survival is giving way to a new one in which you are collaborating to thrive! Oneness is more than a concept; it’s your true nature. By celebrating your oneness on one day, our hope is that you will embrace and celebrate your oneness EVERYDAY. You are saying YES to creating a world where everyone feels welcomed, wanted, a sense of genuine belonging and a deep connection to our global family and earth. As the Hopi Elder said: "The time for the lone wolf is over. Gather yourselves! Banish the word ‘struggle’ from your attitude and your vocabulary. All that we do now must be done in a sacred manner and in celebration. We are the ones we’ve been waiting for." We ARE the ones we’ve been waiting for. And the wait is over. Join Julie Ann and Steve on ConsciousSHIFT for this special Global Oneness Day Show!

Andrea Polard/A UNIFIED THEORY OF HAPPINESS 10/03/12

julieannturner@creatorsguide.com — Thu, 4 Oct 2012 16:02:50 -0700

Andrea Polard/A UNIFIED THEORY OF HAPPINESS Happiness is a good relationship with the WHOLE of life ... the good and the bad, the fragility and the strength. Julie Ann's ConsciousSHIFT guest Andrea Polard, author of A UNIFIED THEORY OF HAPPINESS: An East-Meets-West Approach to Fully Loving Your Life, encourages we blend the best of both Western and Eastern modes of consciousness - using the "twin wings" of full life participation. "Happiness seen as full life participation is fulfilling," Andrea explains. "Our Western culture makes us actively part of life, and our Eastern culture fosters awareness of our participation in life. These are the two modes of consciousness: the Basic Mode, wherein one actively relate[s] to the so-called objective world; and Supreme Mode, wherein one focus[es] on Being." On this show, we will explore how weaving both the Active/Basic mode of consciousness - expressed as ambition, competence, connection and confidence - and the Awareness/Supreme mode of consciousness - experienced as receptivity, tranquility, reliance and lightheartedness - enables a balanced happiness to take flight. We can combine the can-do drive to achieve with the simple presence of mindful awareness to usher in a new evolution in the way each of us approaches happiness. A Unified Theory of Happiness beautifully synthesizes a 20-year study of Eastern contemplative wisdom and the latest from Western science to illuminate an understanding of happiness that honors the full spectrum of life’s offerings even as it broadens our experience of its inherent joy. Andrea F. Polard, PsyD, is a German-born author and clinical psychologist with an extensive background in psychodynamic therapies, meditation, and Ericksonian mind-body work. Join Julie Ann and Andrea for a dynamic dialogue designed to dramatically boost your happiness and wholeness!

Paul Tough/THE HIDDEN POWER OF CHARACTER 09/19/12

julieannturner@creatorsguide.com — Wed, 19 Sep 2012 19:30:37 -0700

The results are in: It’s not about how much information we can stuff into children's brains in the first few years, and it’s not about how highly they score on tests, from preschool admissions to SATs. Julie Ann's ConsciousSHIFT guest Paul Tough, author of HOW CHILDREN SUCCEED: Grit, Curiosity, and the Hidden Power of Character, connects the dots between groundbreaking research in neuroscience, economics, and psychology to show that the qualities that matter most for success have less to do with IQ and more to do with character: skills like grit, curiosity, conscientiousness, and optimism. Paul takes on what he calls the “cognitive hypothesis,” the idea that success hinges on mental processing speed and traditional brainpower. Instead, citing lots of interesting research, Tough shows that “non-cognitive skills ... perseverance, optimism, self-control, and so on – are actually what matter most. More than that, the ability to adapt to change - and bounce back from failure - are the capacities that create the character essential for success. “Psychologists and neuroscientists have learned a lot in the past few decades about where these skills come from and how they are developed,” Paul writes. What they’ve discovered can be summed up in a sentence: Character is created by encountering and overcoming failure. Paul explains why American children from both ends of the socioeconomic spectrum are missing out on these essential experiences. Perhaps surprisingly, the children of affluent parents are insulated from adversity, beginning with their baby-proofed nurseries and continuing well into their parentally financed young adulthoods. And while poor children face no end of challenges — from inadequate nutrition and medical care to dysfunctional schools and neighborhoods — there is often little support to help them turn these obstacles into character-enhancing triumphs. Paul visited schools, pediatric clinics, neuroscience rat labs, and elite chess tournaments, and he discovered that both inside the classroom and outside, character makes a big difference to a child’s success. “Character is molded by the environment in which we grow up,” Paul says. “It can be taught not just by parents but by schools, coaches, and mentors as well. Which means we all have a responsibility to help kids develop their character – as well as their math skills.” Paul Tough is a contributing writer to the New York Times Magazine,and he has written extensively about education, child development, and poverty. His journalism has also appeared in The New Yorker,GQ, and on the public-radio program This American Life. Join Julie Ann and Paul as they explore how character determines success for all of us - young and old.

Marlise Karlin/The Power of Peace in You In the midst of a chaotic world, we often find ourselves searching for peace of mind. 09/05/12

julieannturner@creatorsguide.com — Wed, 5 Sep 2012 09:52:56 -0700

How can we experience this kind of clarity? How can we manage constant stress and anxiety? How can we overcome the multitude of challenges we are presented with on a daily basis? Julie Ann and her ConsciousSHIFT guest Marlise Karlin will explore these questions, and Marlise will share her ground-breaking "Simplicity of Stillness (SOS)" methodology for connecting to the universal energy of peace, as revealed in her new book The Power of Peace in You: A Revolutionary Tool for Hope, Healing and Happiness in the 21st Century. The Simplicity of Stillness Method is an immediate, accessible, and experiential form of higher learning that evokes an awakened mind and open heart. It contains three elements that elicits calm, focus and confidence in times of turmoil and adversity. 1. Stillness Sessions are a unique form of meditation, infused with (the profound) Energy of absolute peace. Simply listening to the words and music ignites a journey of greater understanding. 2. The Three Breath Awareness is a reconnection tool for accessing this state of deeper peace and inspiration in moments. 3. The SOS Practices (the practical) are tools to integrate this infinite intelligence into the everyday of life. Applying this stunningly simple method, anyone can find the courage needed to face life's many setbacks, and to access clarity, equanimity, wisdom, and calm, even in the midst of daily stresses and anxieties. Join Julie Ann and Marlise to experience this powerful transformation technique. Marlise herself underwent a transformation from being a teen runaway on drugs, to becoming a successful entrepreneur and award-winning film producer, and now an author sharing more than 25 years of study in ancient wisdom, healing traditions and evolutionary schools of thought in The Power of Peace in You.

Carter Phipps/EVOLUTIONARIES: Conscious Leadership & A Co-Creative Worldview 08/29/12

julieannturner@creatorsguide.com — Wed, 29 Aug 2012 21:56:03 -0700

When we think of evolution, we may first envision fossils and fruit flies, Charles Darwin and perhaps Richard Dawkins. But what if our current scientific understanding of evolution was just the tip of the iceberg? What if there’s a way to see evolution that could transform not just your understanding of the physical world, but also your most fundamental sense of self-identity? That could give you a rational, intellectually informed sense of optimism for the future? That could even provide a new source of spiritual insight and inspiration? As we explore on ConsciousSHIFT - evolution is a master creative process in which we all participate, consciously or unconsciously ... ours is a World in Process. Today, a movement of visionary scientists, philosophers, and spiritual thinkers is forging a new understanding of evolution that honors science, reframes culture, and radically updates spirituality. Author Carter Phipps calls them Evolutionaries. And Julie Ann will be exploring this emerging worldview with Carter Phipps, former executive editor of EnlightenNext magazine and author of "EVOLUTIONARIES: Unlocking the Spiritual and Cultural Potential of Science’s Greatest Idea." Join us to discover how scientists are revealing that cooperation drives evolution — all the way from quarks to quadrupeds to us ... and the transformative truths at the heart of the new “evolutionary spirituality.” Guaranteed to challenge your thought - and spark your imagination.

James O'Dea/Cultivating A Global Culture of Peace 08/15/12

How do we genuinely and authentically build a global culture of peace? Global activist and author James O'Dea joins Julie Ann to explore the cultural, spiritual, and scientific dimensions of just this question - at a critical time on our planet. The guidance Julie Ann and James will explore - drawn from James's latest book, "Cultivating Peace: Becoming a 21st-Century Peace Ambassador," is relevant for us all - even those who have never considered themselves peacebuilders - not just for peace activists, mediators, and negotiators, but for psychologists, educators, businesspeople, and clergy - and for us, as everyday citizens. At an individual level, we may play a role as activators of peace through energy mastery - we can we can transform the energy that triggers us and model how to successfully transform unhealthy conflict in our families, workplaces, and local communities. On a community and societal level, peacebuilding creates space for healthy, deep introspection, dialogue, healing - and new vision. Peace work is about expanding the capacity of a society to embrace multifaceted identities. Democracy is the best tool we have to align individual and collective freedom, as it is nurtured and allowed to slowly and authentically evolve. James O’Dea is a renowned figure in international social healing, who integrates personal experience in the world’s violent conflict zones with insights gathered from decades of work in social healing, human rights advocacy, and consciousness studies. James was director of Amnesty International’s Washington, DC, office and is a past president and member of the extended faculty of the Institute of Noetic Sciences.

Andrew Cohen - A REvolutionary Worldview: God Particles, Higgs Boson & The Meaning of Life 08/01/12

julieannturner@creatorsguide.com — Wed, 1 Aug 2012 14:26:35 -0700

Science is usually focused on more specific issues,
but with the recent discovery of the Higgs Boson, or “God Particle,” the global conversation about science is expanding to include bigger, more philosophhical questions, like “Where did we come from?” ... “How did something come from nothing?” ... and causing many to ponder anew the meaning of existence.
Science and spirituality are often thought to be at odds, but Julie Ann's ConsciousSHIFT guest Andrew Cohen shares that Evolutionary Enlightenment is a spirituality that is informed by the latest discoveries in science, like the Higgs boson, particularly in relationship to the evolution of the cosmos.
More than that, it is often through these “big science” projects like the Large Hadron Collider that scientists discover unimaginable things - and these discoveries, in turn, inevitably spark philosophical questions - questions that only a more evolutionary spiritual view may encompass - and resolve within a higher harmony and wholeness.

Julie Ann and Andrew will explore these fascinating questions in this thought-provoking ConsciousSHIFT Show.
Moreover, Andrew redefines spiritual awakening for our contemporary world — a world characterized by exponential change and an ever-expanding appreciation for the processes of evolution, as he reveals in his latest book, Evolutionary Enlightenment.

The message Andrew shares with Julie Ann - and you - is simple, yet profound:

Life is evolution, and enlightenment is about waking up to this fundamentally creative impulse as your own deepest, most authentic self.

You'll want to join Julie Ann and Andrew in this dynamic conversation - as it not only makes deep sense of life today, it will show you how to play an active role in shaping the world of tomorrow.

Chade-Meng Tan/SEARCH INSIDE YOURSELF 07/04/12

julieannturner@creatorsguide.com — Thu, 5 Jul 2012 12:04:32 -0700

SEARCH INSIDE YOURSELF with Google's Chade-Meng Tan "SEARCH INSIDE YOURSELF," the popular course taught at Google, was created by Julie Ann's ConsciousSHIFT guest Chade-Meng Tan, to elevate the work and lives of the best and brightest people at one of the most innovative, successful, and profitable businesses in the world. Now, Meng has captured and shared the magic and transformation of the Google course, in his new book, "SEARCH INSIDE YOURSELF: The Unexpected Path to Achieving Success, Happiness (and World Peace)." Meng's job title at Google is Jolly Good Fellow (which nobody can deny). His job description reads, "Enlighten minds, open hearts, create world peace." Isn't that a phenomenal job description - one that many ConsciousSHIFT-ers would love to express, as well? Meng, as he is known, takes his job seriously and laughs a lot at the office. As one of Google's earliest engineers, he helped build Google's first mobile search service and headed the team that monitored Google's search quality. He currently serves with Google's Talent Team. Deeply rooted in science, the SEARCH INSIDE YOURSELF course was designed for Googlers as a means to reduce stress, increase well-being, heighten focus and creativity, become more optimistic and resilient, build fulfilling relationships, and ultimately become happier and more profitable in their work and their lives. While the "Search Inside Yourself" skills learned are designed to help one to "optimize thyself" and gain an extra edge, it may be surprising that the core concepts of the program are mindfulness and emotional intelligence. Created in collaboration with a Zen Master, a CEO, a Stanford University scientist, and bestselling author Daniel Goleman (the guy who literally wrote the book on emotional intelligence), and written by Meng, "SEARCH INSIDE YOURSELF" distills mindfulness and emotional intelligence in a way even a skeptical, compulsively pragmatic, engineering-oriented brain like Meng's can process, breaking them down into a set of practical tools and skills that can be adopted by anyone, at any career or experience level. "For the benefits of mindfulness and emotional intelligence to become widely accessible, they cannot be just the domain of bald people in funny robes living in mountains, or small groups of New Age folks living in San Francisco," says Meng. "Meditation needs to become 'real'. It needs to align with the lives and interests of real people." On ConsciousSHIFT, Meng addresses questions that may arise from skeptics with a "traditional" business mindset, such as: How can one to find joy while succeeding at work when under stress and pressure? How does compassion impact the profitability of a business? How can meditative practices benefit people's careers and business bottom lines?

Barbara Marx Hubbard and BIRTH 2012: Age of Conscious Evolution 06/20/12

julieannturner@creatorsguide.com — Wed, 20 Jun 2012 23:37:16 -0700

Is 2012 leading up to a doomsday - or a planetary BIRTH DAY - an invitation for humanity to rise to a new level of conscious choice and co-creation? As we move further into 2012, many people are experiencing heightened uncertainty and fear that is exacerbated by the media frenzy of doom and gloom scenarios, as we face a escalation of natural disasters, economic instability, global warming, threats of war, and more. While many indigenous prophecies - most prominently those of the Maya, whose prophecies are often, erroneously, associated with these "forecasts of 2012 doom" - do concur that a time for a planetary shift is upon us, the leading voices and conscious visionaries of our time are heralding the truth about this shift as a "conscious choice point" for humanity - as Julie Ann shares as the core message on ConsciousSHIFT. Julie Ann's ConsciousSHIFT guest and concious visionary Barbara Marx Hubbard, especially, has been a leading voice to put forth a more hopeful vision, which is to declare this 2012 “end” date of what is passing away, and as a symbolic marker of what is actually being born within us that is new, that is good, creative and loving. In fact, Barbara and other fellow conscious visionaries have declared December 22, 2012 as “day one” of the next era of life on this planet - a planetary BIRTH DAY - and an invitation for humanity to shift toward sustainability, peace building, innovative solutions in every field and function. “This great time is an unprecedented opportunity to collectively make a planetary shift and step forward and give our greatest gifts to the emergence of a new co-creative human society," Barbara shares. "If we do that, together we can ignite a new way of being that endures for decades to come.” It's clear, humanity is facing a historic turning point. We are evolving from unconscious chance to conscious choice. Why? Because we know we can affect our own evolution by all the choices we make – from the food we eat, the number of babies we have, the cars we drive, and the weapons we build. At the same time, we also are facing the possibility of the collapse of our life support system - if our choices about our resources are not conscious or based in wisdom. However, Barbara believes, as does Julie Ann, that this is the potential pivot point for the emergence of something new, something better than we have ever known before. In Barbara's new book, BIRTH 2012 and Beyond: Humanity’s Great Shift to the Age of Conscious Evolution, she outlines humanity's current crises, and offers a new paradigm for the new age of conscious evolution, as well as tools for becoming the new “universal human.” She offers us the vision of creating a harmonious heart-centered co-creative, sustainable new world. On ConsciousSHIFT, Barbara will share with Julie Ann why it is time to rapidly connect what is working in every field and function, and communicate through all media, as fast as we can, our creativity, innovations, and capacities to make it through together. Dec. 22, 2012, has been selected as DAY ONE to consciously contribute to this process. It is our first Planetary BIRTH DAY to celebrate the coming of the next era of evolution based on what works. Join Julie Ann and Barbara to discover YOUR ROLE in this ConsciousSHIFT!

Jonah Lehrer/IMAGINE: How Creativity Works 06/06/12

julieannturner@creatorsguide.com — Wed, 6 Jun 2012 15:29:08 -0700

IMAGINE: HOW CREATIVITY WORKS with Jonah Lehrer
Did you know that the most creative companies have centralized bathrooms?
That brainstorming meetings are a terrible idea? That the color blue can help you double your creative output?

In IMAGINE: How Creativity Works, bestselling author Jonah Lehrer will share with us a sparkling and revealing look at the new science of creativity.

Shattering many creativity myths, Jonah echoes one of ConsciousSHIFT's themes, that creativity is not a single “gift” possessed by the lucky few. It’s a variety of distinct thought processes that we can ALL learn to use more effectively.
Julie Ann will explore with Jonah the importance of embracing the rut, thinking like a child, and daydreaming productively ... and then take us out of our own heads to show how we can make our neighborhoods more vibrant, our companies more productive, and our schools more effective.
We’ll explore Bob Dylan’s writing habits and the drug addiction of poets ... consider bartender who thinks like a chemist, and an autistic surfer who invented an entirely new surfing move ... see why Elizabethan England experienced a creative explosion, and how Pixar designed its office space to get the most out of its talent.
By collapsing the layers separating the neuron from the finished symphony, Jonah will help us see the deep inventiveness of the human mind, and its essential - and conscious - role it can play in navigating, and co-creating in, our increasingly complex world.
Join Julie Ann as she interviews her guest on ConsciousSHIFT - Jonah Lehrer, author of IMAGINE, who is also a contributing editor at Wired and a frequent contributor to The New Yorker - to discover how YOU can cultivate YOUR creative genius!

Enrico Moretti on INNOVATION HUBS - THE NEW GLOBAL BRAIN CENTERS 05/16/12

julieannturner@creatorsguide.com — Wed, 16 May 2012 17:42:40 -0700

According to rising young economist Enrico Moretti, of U.C. Berkeley, we are in the midst of an unprecedented redistribution of jobs, population, and wealth - and a huge shift in the world's centers of innovation - that will only accelerate in the years to come.
Tectonic shifts are reshaping the labor market — from globalization and income inequality to immigration and technological progress — and these shifts are dramatically affecting our communities.
New Innnovation Hubs are emerging - cities with a well-educated labor force and a strong innovation sector. Their workers are among the most productive, creative, and best paid on the planet. At the other extreme are cities once dominated by traditional manufacturing, which are declining rapidly, losing jobs and residents.
In the middle are a number of cities that could go either way - and, for the past 30 years, these differences have been diverging at an accelerating rate. This divergence is one the most important recent developments and is causing growing geographic disparities is all other aspects of our lives, from health and longevity to family stability and political engagement.
But the winners and losers aren’t necessarily who you’d expect. Moretti’s groundbreaking research shows that you don’t have to be a scientist or an engineer to thrive in one of these brain hubs.
In fact, Moretti has shown that for every new innovation job in a city, five additional non-innovation jobs are created, and those workers earn higher salaries than their counterparts in other cities.
It wasn’t supposed to be this way.
As the global economy shifted from manufacturing to innovation, geography was supposed to matter less. But the pundits were wrong. A new map is being drawn — the inevitable result of deep-seated but rarely discussed economic forces.
Julie Ann talks with Moretti about how these trends are reshaping the very fabric of our society - and the effects these innovation shifts will have on you, your work, and your potential going forward.

Shawne Duperon & Master Charles Cannon on UNFORGETTABLE FORGIVENESS 04/18/12

julieannturner@creatorsguide.com — Wed, 18 Apr 2012 17:02:25 -0700

Life happens. We lose our jobs, we face bankruptcy and foreclosure. Some of us are dealing with a divorce, others of us are facing life threatening illnesses such as cancer. Culturally, we see deep political fighting, immigration issues, war, despair and violence. In the face of all this, how can we find the courage to forgive and cause a new realm of possibility, a new conversation? And how can principles of enlightened living and a higher state of consciousness make it possible for us to weather traumatic, life-threatening circumstances, injustice or harm to those we love - and still come through the ordeal with insight, compassion and unconditional love - and respond with forgiveness, even in the face of the seemingly unforgivable? Julie Ann's ConsciousSHIFT guests Shawne Duperon - the 6-time Emmy-winning filmmaker leading the creation of the new documentary "Project: Forgive" - and Master Charles Cannon - global spiritual teacher and author of "Forgiving the Unforgivable: The True Story of How the Survivors of the Mumbai Terrorist Attack Answered Hatred with Compassion."

julieannturner@creatorsguide.com — Wed, 4 Apr 2012 16:52:08 -0700

Mariana Caplan, author of Eyes Wide Open and Julie Ann's guest on ConsciousSHIFT, reveals that safe travel requires a quality rarely taught, yet critically important, in today’s world: discernment. Mariana shares that cultivating this acute judgment and discrimination will help us to live a spiritual life with intelligence, clarity, and authenticity. "The degree to which we are awake, conscious, and discerning in our experience and choices is the extent to which we can consciously participate in our soul’s unfolding. We evolve spiritually by cultivating discernment that is powerful enough to pierce through confusion on every level of our experience," Mariana explains.

And we're going to share with you exactly how why Dreamsetting is much more powerful - as Jim reveals exactly why Goalsetting doesn't work ... and share his best-kept secret for turning your most cherished dreams into accomplishments.

Agapi Stassinopoulos/UNBINDING YOUR HEART 02/15/12

Agapi Stassinopoulos - author of "Unbinding The Heart," Huffington Post regular, and Julie Ann Turner's guest on ConsciousSHIFT - says we are all born with an open heart, but we quickly learn to put conditions on our happiness - comparing ourselves to others, casting judgment, doubting ourselves, allowing fear or entitlement or self-righteousness to take hold-and slowly our hearts begin to close. As a result, Agapi shares that we isolate ourselves, and find ourselves feeling alone, disconnected, and unheard - and, in doing so, we immobilize our spirit, stifle our authentic expression, and cut off our joy.

Our patience with fear has run out.

julieannturner@creatorsguide.com — Thu, 7 Jul 2011 12:53:25 -0700

If you've ever admired a tree for its simple beauty, appreciated its cool shade, or loved climbing up its large trunk and branches, you are part of a deeply rooted tribe that Jean Shinoda Bolen calls "tree people." In Like a Tree, this bestselling author and Jungian analyst invites us to explore our sacred relationship to these magnificent centerpieces of nature, and uncover the hidden wisdom they have to offer. Drawing on her own walking practice among the giant redwoods, and as an advocate for a Fifth World Conference on Women at the United Nations, Jean shares with Julie Ann a variety of topics including: the role of trees as archetypal and sacred symbols, what it means to be a "tree person" in this time in history, and how this might have to do with the next evolutionary step for humanity. Drawing powerful parallels between the future of trees and the future of women and girls, Jean exposes how deeply intertwined the fate of our planet may be with our consciousness and care of these vital and essential assets. Sprinkled with wisdom drawn from the Tao, Buddha's teachings, Jung, and Hildegard von Bingen's life, Like a Tree is a mystical and poetic book that inspires us to deepen our unique relationship to trees and take action in our own natural ways.

julieannturner@creatorsguide.com — Thu, 21 Apr 2011 08:25:36 -0700

Procrastination. Writer’s block. Stage fright. It comes in many forms - but virtually everyone experiences it in life and business. It’s this creative anxiety that, paradoxically, keeps creators from doing, completing, or starting the work we are driven toward. As Seth Godin would say, it keeps us from “shipping.” It can show up in a myriad of ways, including avoiding the work, declaring it not good enough, or failing to market it — and it can cripple creators for decades - even lifetimes.

Brant Secunda, Shaman-Healer, & Mark Allen, 6-Time Ironman Triathlon Champion, "Soul-Fitness & Eco-Therapy: 7 Ways Your Connection with NATURE Can HEAL You" Co-Authors of "Fit Soul, Fit Body" (Nautilus Award) 02/16/2011

julieannturner@creatorsguide.com — Thu, 17 Feb 2011 10:53:49 -0800

Brant Secunda & Mark Allen - If you’ve got the wintertime blues, new research shows nature can heal your moods. The big idea: If you're depressed, stressed out, anxious, or fatigued, the cure might be right outside your door. New research from Holland shows that people who live near a park or wooded area experience less depression and anxiety. And a study from the UK found that a walk in the country reduced depression in 71% of participants. In this fascinating interview with Julie Ann, Shaman-Healer Brant Secunda and Triathlete Mark Allen share the emerging field known as Eco-Therapy, which offers new solutions for people suffering from wintertime blues, or depression and anxiety caused by workplace or personal stressors. More than that, Brant and Mark share how to cultivate “sustainable Soul Fitness” – in their Nautilus-Award-winning book, Fit Soul, Fit Body. Secunda spent 12 years living among the exceptionally healthy and happy Huichol people of Mexico, apprenticing with their legendary shaman. From them, he learned what scientists are just now confirming: that disconnection with our outer environment can make us sick - and connection with nature can heal us. Now he and Allen, a 6-time world Ironman champion, show others how to draw strength, focus, and energy from nature - and use their techniques to transform negative emotions that deplete health and energy.

Peter Canova - a real-life Robert Langdon, the protagonist in The Da Vinci Code - is author of a new Nautilus-Award-winning novel, Pope Annalisa, a spiritual thriller about an African nun who becomes the first female pope, couches profound spiritual truths in the trappings of a mainstream thriller. Peter's own spiritual experiences, and 30 years of research and practice, have cemented him as one of America’s leading experts on the Sacred Feminine, the hidden church, and the Dead Sea Scrolls. The book propounds the thesis that two teachings or Churches existed in early Christianity, one feminine, mystical and esoteric; the other patriarchal, literal, and public ... as Peter traces the roots of Judeo-Christian mysticism and links them to a universal chain of spiritual wisdom found in every major ancient culture and religious practice. Julie Ann explores with Peter how the keys to a Conscious SHIFT are revealed as the central pattern of this universal wisdom.
