In this episode of 'Changing the Channel with Joe Garner,' I have the distinct pleasure of sharing many threads of conversation with Shebala Queen of Lions, a medicine woman and prosperity artist. We discuss Shebala's journey into human design, her background in corporate marketing, and her transition to spiritual work. Shebala outlines her integrated approach to human design, ancestral communication, and somatic tools. Then we delve into the concept of the trifecta of healing, encapsulating personal power, partnership, and prosperity. Shebala shares her vision for a future where humanity self-actualizes and transcends through emotional regulation, compassion, and collaborative systems, potentially catalyzed by transformed influential figures. The episode underscores the importance of transparency in the spiritual journey and the complex, iterative process of personal and collective evolution.

In this episode of Changing the Channel, host Joe Garner interviews Ray Vahey, the CEO of BitChute, an alternative media platform focused on privacy and free speech. Ray discusses the origins and motivations behind BitChute, highlighting the increasing censorship and deplatforming faced by alternative media, especially in the libertarian space since 2015. The conversation also covers the challenges BitChute has faced, including being deplatformed from banks and payment processors, which ultimately led to their relocation from the UK to the US. Ray emphasizes the importance of privacy tools like VPNs, encrypted messaging, and privacy-protecting browsers, urging listeners to take proactive steps to protect their data. The discussion also touches on the broader implications of government surveillance and data privacy, the role of decentralization in fostering innovation, and the necessity for more competition in the marketplace.

In this episode of Changing The Channel, I have the honor of sitting down for an in-depth discussion with Rocio and Angel, co-authors of 'The Orchid, The Secret Code of Modern Goddesses.' The book is a transformational novel blending storytelling with spiritual initiation. The conversation covers the authors' personal journeys of healing, the inspiration behind the book, and the various spiritual tools and practices incorporated into the narrative. The discussion emphasizes the importance of inner empowerment, gratitude, forgiveness, and the shift in consciousness. The authors share their insights on maintaining a high vibrational state and offer practical advice for personal and spiritual growth.

Rocio and Angel are partners in life and purpose, devoted to guiding others through the inner path of emotional healing, spiritual awakening, and conscious creation. Together, they co-wrote The Orchid: The Secret Code of Modern Goddesses, a novel born from years of inner work, study in spiritual psychology, and their shared devotion to personal evolution.Their story began in corporate success and expanded into a global mission of helping people move from survival to self-love, from external validation to inner truth. Through The Orchid, speaking engagements, and sacred community work, they support the collective shift from fear to love — one soul at a time.

In this episode of Changing the Channel, I have the pleasure of speaking with Charley Johnson, an innovator in the field of consciousness, to discuss the transformative potential of the Chief Consciousness Officer (CCO) role in modern businesses. Charley outlines his unique journey from a non-religious upbringing in Utah to becoming a successful businessman and later a nonprofit leader with the Pay It Forward Foundation. He explains how his extensive spiritual training, combined with business experience, has prepared him to pioneer the CCO role. The CCO, he argues, can bridge the gap between the spiritual and the practical, offering neutrality and deep understanding to address divisions within organizations. Whether helping companies navigate the complexities of modern technological advancements like AI or alleviating mental health challenges, Charley emphasizes the critical need for a full-time position dedicated to elevating consciousness at all levels of an organization. The episode offers a comprehensive look at how introducing a CCO can fundamentally improve business operations and employee well-being by fostering a more unified and conscious workplace environment.
