This week - Crossing the Great Divide with Joe Trippi, Democratic Strategist - Over the years, a great political chasm has developed among Democrats, Independents and Republicans. The nation has never been further apart in its politics. I'll speak with Democratic Party insider Joe Trippi and ask what he thinks might lie ahead in 2024 for the Democrats and Republicans in the race for the White House and the control of the House and Senate. I will also speak with Joe about his experience with the Lincoln Project - a bold, nonpartisan initiative to bring America back together.
Title: The Keys to Heaven are Hidden within Sacred Prayer
Description: We are given a choice, some will take the easy way and believe it is right, but those whose faith is so solid will see the truth that will allow them the key to gain entrance into a world of creation that awaits us. One way unlocks the gates and the other will leave you waiting outside.

Happy Summertime!
I'm enjoying the warmth. It always makes me feel more possible!
Reruns, recycling, doing our sacred geometric structures and recognizing the power of our rapport with subtle energy, I chuckle.
There is so much magic in and around us all, we are learning to actually design our realities with it... calling down specific frequencies, adding to them.
On Sundays I lead a meditation group called the Structures, based on a meditation I used to do using sacred geometric structures. I looked up Structures here in Bellingham yesterday, and there is a brewery called Structures Brewery. Perfect! We are using or learning to organize universal energies round ourselves to brew our lives and heal consciously. How fun!
Evolution! It seemed more than appropriate this week to return Qi Gong to center stage... Put a little grace into change... Pull a golden stream down from infinity plus one, spiral it through your central nervous system and practice feeling it energizing and centering you. Read more about this week's Paradigm Shifters rebroadcast of an interview with Qi Gong Master Ming Tong Gu, below.
Love to all.
Call for centering reading session soon.

Ming Tong Gu of the CHI Center in New Mexico talks to us all about the incredible simplicity and energy wonders of Qi Gong. This rerun is so rich, done in the middle of the covid lockdown. Master Ming Tong Gu shares perspectives on humans being confined whether in a virus or at home. There are advantages of the entire world sharing a predicament of massive clinical depression. But what can happen when in the circular motions of Qi Gong our trapped energies connect with Source. As we move en masse, many illnesses can be healed. Possibilities for our entire species or a large part of it, can deepen into a universal oneness. As such a loving Spirit, his heart can pull us all into Unity.

CEO National Foot & Ankle Partners & Healthcare leadership specialist
Salman serves as the CEO of National Foot & Ankle Partners, a physician centric company focused on enabling independent foot & ankle surgery / podiatry practices to thrive.
As a husband to a practicing foot & ankle surgeon (a graduate of Temple University School of Podiatric Medicine), the rewards and challenges of foot & ankle healthcare is part of the family – and he has a deep appreciation and understanding for the professionals who practice it.
Salman himself is a physician by background and completed a Postdoctoral Fellowship in Cardiothoracic Transplantation Immunology at Yale University School of Medicine.
However, during the course of his medical training, he was increasingly captivated by how healthcare systems are developed and organized to allow healthcare delivery at scale. This prompted the decision to play a broader role within the healthcare ecosystem rather than practicing clinical medicine & surgery - and he found the ideal starting point through joining McKinsey & Company - a global management consulting firm.
At McKinsey & Company’s NYC office - Salman focused on serving clients across the full range of healthcare sectors, including pharmaceuticals, health insurance as well as government led health care services.
Salman subsequently went on to become a Principal in the Health Insurance and Hospital focused practice at The Boston Consulting Group, another global management consulting firm.
He thereafter served as the Head of Operations for an established and growth-stage health tech company called Zocdoc and oversaw the scale up of multiple operational teams serving small medical practice as well as large hospital clients
Prior to becoming CEO of National Foot & Ankle Partners, Salman founded and ran a thriving management consulting practice serving the operational and strategic needs of a wide variety of healthcare clients which included PE backed medical practice platforms as well as health insurance clients from the large nationals to local Blue plans.

One of the principal lessons of the financial crises is the importance of accountability. Bailouts allow people and companies to escape the consequences of bad practices, but a system without accountability will not work in the long run. Americans love sports, and accountability is an essential part of any sport.
The key lessons for investors from the Global Financial Crisis (GFC) are that: there is always a cycle; while each cycle is different, markets are pushed to extremes of valuation and sentiment; high returns come with higher risk; be skeptical of financial engineering or hard-to-understand products; avoid too much ..
