Today we are speaking with a man who guides Spiritual Messengers to experience the Divine within. My guest is Ken W. Stone, a World-Renowned Energy Healer, Spiritual Teacher, Author, and Founder of the Resonance Experiment. God expresses through Ken in a unique way: when people sit with him in transmission, they have a profoundly different experience of the Divine in their body. Ken is a natural teacher with a unique approach. Through divine download and the exploration that continues, Ken has received two core structures which he continues write about, teach, and practice: Spiritual Mastery and Spiritual Messenger Mastery. Together these two structures support students in being Embodied Messengers—one who shares their divine gifts merely through their presence. Ken shares his gifts with a spiritually diverse, growing international audience through a variety of online and in person programs, retreats, and one-on-one work.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR 

With one record-smashing night in his exploding hockey career, Boyd Anderson went from 'the best line in junior hockey' to an international playoff team of champions from Zug, Switzerland. After creating a huge sale to Saudi Arabia, Boyd moves from Toronto to Budapest to Dubai and unknowingly finds himself at the 'Top of the Food Chain'. It is in Dubai, 2007 where he meets Thomas who introduces him into a world of deception and unimaginable Power Wielding Elite, hyper-competitive dealmakers and hungry profiteers, who trade entire lives just as easily as they swapped arena tickets and team contracts, behind the scenes of business, governments and politicians you've heard of.  But when CNN announced, “Malaysian Airlines flight MH370 has disappeared” on a March morning in 2014, Boyd immediately blurted out, “I know who did this.” Horrified, he became an investigator, using his highly toned instincts and perception, along with his memory. Backed up with facts, he saw all the pieces coming together, realizing that hundreds of lives lost were just 'collateral damage' for a 55,500 Ton gold heist. Even worse, using ancient numerology and researching the main players introduced to him from a nearly forgotten contact who had described a plan for just how Bitcoin, political turmoil in Europe and the Middle East, and even the world's economy would play out -- drastically changing the world as we know it, in just a few years. After spending 3 years investigating and researching, Boyd discovered 3 abandoned Boeing Jumbo 747's left on the tarmac at Kuala Lumpur airport, he finally figured things out. Unable to escape the feeling that all the signs were in place for a scandal that's bigger than Watergate, now everyone needs to know the truth regarding the origin of Bitcoin, Ethereum, Monero & ETC Classic, the Blockchain, Kraken, Brexit, ISIS, Interest Rate Hikes -- and the biggest gold heist-assassination in the history of the world!

BRYN RYAN-VANDYKE

Genre:  Alternative Folk Pop – A story teller with catchy hooks.  From haunting ballads to driving rock with the occasional county pop thrown in the mix.

Bio:

It was New Year’s Eve in Noosa Bay, Australia.   At midnight, looking up at the Southern Cross, Bryn didn’t know what she wanted to do with her life.  However, she did know that she did NOT want to grow old and look back with regret that she let fear or insecurity keep her down. 

Bryn also knew that, in order to be really good at something, you need to have passion for it.  The only thing that really moved her was music.  This presented a problem – she didn’t really know how to sing.  Music struck deep emotion in her and she wanted to explore why

Bryn decided to start believing she could sing-figuring by the time she got a chance, she would learn.  That chance came sooner than expected after returning home to Southern California.  She asked to sing a song with a band at a party – that started her journey.

Bryn began to write songs and teach herself to play the guitar at night because she had a day job.  She started playing with a small band at coffee houses and small venues.  After a while, Bryn broke out on her own and played all over Hollywood in places like the famous Rainbow Room, Pig n Whistle, Coconut Teazers, Club Lingerie and all over Orange County, CA.

Bryn focused mainly on songwriting.  Even though she had wonderful fans and performed often, she never felt truly comfortable on stage or with her singing voice.  She finally started doing some serious work on her voice a couple of years ago and Covid gave her extra time to focus.

Because there are people who believe in her songs and because she now truly believes in herself, She has turned a page in her musical journey. 



“I want to look back on my life without regret – I want to help people with my music – I am looking forward to the future and this new phase of my journey.”
