Dr Lana and Det David Love talk to Author Jay Hall about his "Young Earth Theory".
How old is the earth and who cares? Rick Perry, Ben Carson & Marco Rubio all confronted the age of the earth controversy. My shockingly bold new book provides the answer – based on history and science! My book provides a significant motivation for the School Choice movement. Should we waste billions on funding research based on the dominant old earth perspective? I also deal with bullying in chapter seven. Do you remember 2012, the exciting Emmerich film? This was based on the Pole Shift concept which Einstein praised. Catastrophism implies a youthful planet. Did you see Japan Sinks (2006)? This was a scifi disaster movie, but is based on real science and involves extreme plate tectonics - this is consistent with Young Earth Science (YES).

Spiritual Tenacity or Spiritual Ego?
Is there a difference? Moving forward with CONFIDENCE!
Are you living your life with Spiritual Tenacity? OR, are you living from the Spiritual Ego? Often misunderstood, this subtlety is PROFOUND! Can they work alongside each other? While often confusing at first, if we learn how to anchor and ignite the ascended heart the gifts are stunning. Tenacity is the willingness to walk into the darkness releasing the outcome and Ego is a coping mechanism to keep us safe in this world. We need both in balance! This week Sri and Kira share beautiful jewels of wisdom to discern the difference. They lovingly teach how to Ascend through spiritualized ego into the opening our miracle gateway - the foundation for Self- Ascension! Once anchored fully, the ability to manifest our most amazing life becomes an everyday event. Our phone lines are open for questions and sharing and the gift of Kira’s mini soul readings!
Catalytic Radio host Sheryl Hirsch-Kramer welcomes Paula and Wendy, two Adventurers from the very first "22 Adventures in Refreshing Your Life; The Stay-At-Home Sabbatical." Sheryl designed this innovative online program that includes stories, exercises, a little homework, and a whole lot of shaking up of viewpoints to re-energize each adventurer. She learned the value of sabbaticals when her dog began collapsing in the fall of 2014; she suddenly stopped eating and lost weight for no apparent reason. Sheryl sensed she was doing something that wasn't agreeing with her dog and asked to be given a sign. When she passed a church with a sign that said "Seek God," she knew it was time for her to cut away from all her friends, as much of her routine as possible, and her belief systems. She and her 15-year-old dog stayed home, except for brief drives to parks to walk together and commune with the Divine. Within a few days, without changing anything else and without consulting the vet, Sheryl's dog began eating again, she began to regain the weight she'd lost, and she stopped collapsing. Sheryl felt newly energized and decided to create an innovative online program to help others experience the refreshment that can come from doing something different. Sheryl, Paula and Wendy will share their experiences in giving themselves the gift of trying something new each day for 22 days during this very special episode of Catalytic Radio.

Voice Builder to the World
Known as the “Voice Builder to the World,” – or simply “The Maestro” – Gary Catona has trained many of the worlds greatest singers and entertainers including: Whitney Houston, Andrea Bocelli, Tony Bennett, Babyface, Gloria Estefan, Michael Mc Donald, Sade, Steven Tyler, Brian Wilson, Johnny Mathis, Usher, Robin Thicke, Shakira, Katy Perry, Lionel Richie, Annie Lennox, Toni Braxton, Seal, Boys II Men, Backstreet Boys, Pharrell Williams, Lenny Kravitz, Gino Vannelli, Draco Rosa, Andy Williams, Liza Minnelli, and Earth, Wind and Fire. (Please go to garycatona.com for a complete list of students)
Originally, Catona was interested in a career as an opera singer, but he lost his voice as a result of formal study with fourteen different voice teachers. Undaunted, he moved to Austin, Texas in 1980 to research the mechanics of voice production at the music libraries at the University of Texas. Ultimately, he formulated his revolutionary “voice-building-system,” which is the systematic process for building the muscles of the voice. Catona decided to forgo a singing career and instead focus on teaching his groundbreaking voice-building system to the world. His first gained notoriety when he built back the voice of a popular Texan singer named, Johnny Bush, who had lost his speaking and singing voice fourteen years earlier because of a vocal disorder called spasmotic dysphonia. When Bush’s voice made a startling recovery after only ten voice-building sessions, Catona’s name spread nationally.
Catona moved to Los Angeles in 1985 and quickly established himself as the world’s premier voice builder. His many projects included preparing Liza Minnelli, Babyface, and Seal for their respective tours, and also coached them on the road. Catona taught and toured with the Italian tenor superstar, Andrea Bocelli, and did the same for pop icon, Sade. In recent years, he has added legends Whitney Houston, Johnny Mathis, Jackson Browne, and rock sensation, Steven Tyler of Aerosmith to his roster of artistic greats. Over the past decade, Catona has appeared in many newspapers and magazines both nationally and internationally (e.g., New York Times; USA Today; People; Vanity Fair; London Times) and has been featured on the popular television shows Entertainment Tonight and CNN’s Anderson Cooper, in which his revolutionary work with celebrities was highlighted. Over the past year, Catona has been the focus of intense media attention – internationally – for his role as the late Whitney Houston’s voice teacher.
Catona was born in Philadelphia to a traditional Italian/American family, and attended Penn State University, where he earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in Liberal Arts and a master’s degree in philosophy. His two passions – voice and philosophy – sustain his creative life. Currently, Catona is committed to spreading his voice building system throughout the world, so everyone can benefit from his discoveries. He has published two books: Thinking As Sport And Dance (philosophy book) and A Revolution In Singing. He is currently preparing to release his third book called, Wisdom For Singers And Philosophers. Catona has also released an iPhone/Pad app called: Voice Builder.
Each of us lives with insecurity—the prospect of losing a job, physical illness, emotional suffering, divorce, the death of loved ones, our own mortality. When we feel our lives may be falling apart or risk being overrun by these powerful emotions, we long to connect to who we truly are, to know the certainty and peace that comes from our core, because only then can we face—and surmount—life’s challenges. A contemporary thought leader who has appeared on the Oprah Winfrey Network’s Super Soul Sunday, Panache Desai calls upon us to harness the power of our authentic selves through our unique soul signature—our spiritual DNA—and be guided by our true purpose. In his first book, DISCOVERING YOUR SOUL SIGNATURE he gives readers a day-by-day spiritual roadmap to confront negative emotions and overcome them energetically, in a way that allows us to tap into a deeper sense of worth and well-being.
