Guest Biography

BRANDON BEACHUM

Brandon Beachum is a podcaster, entrepreneur, author, philosopher and truth-seeker. He originally made his way to California from the East Coast when his former band received a development deal with Elektra records back in 2001. Brandon has been a serial entrepreneur since childhood, and in 2010 while living on a friend’s couch, he founded his first significantly successful company, ResortShare. In August of 2015, ResortShare was named the 569th fastest growing private company in America in the annual Inc. fastest growing companies list.

Since discussing and continually exploring what he refers to as “the ultimate nature of reality” is something he is passionate about and feels called to do, he decided that launching a podcast would be the best avenue to pursue his calling, and to help bring this increasingly popular topic of conversation to a broader audience.

So in May 2015 he launched The Positive Head Podcast. The show’s aim is to help listeners consistently maintain an elevated vibration. In an effort to help the listeners achieve that aim, every

Wednesday, he interviews a different author, director, artist, blogger, scientist, entrepreneur or other notable personality who is out there making a positive impact on the world. He’s had the privilege to interview some amazing and highly-respected guests such as Dr. Eben Alexander, Charles Eisenstein, Marian Goodell, Kevin Kelly, Dr. Bruce Lipton, Nassim Haramein, and Sahara Rose. On the other four weekdays, Brandon and his co-host openly share about how they incorporate these spiritual concepts into their day to day lives, give interpretations of their favorite quotes, take questions from the audience, and dig into any other mind- expansive topics that they feel will help keep the listeners’ souls fed on a regular basis. The Positive Head Podcast has steadily grown over the years and has consistently been recognized in the top five podcasts under the “Spirituality” category on Apple Podcasts and currently has over 15M downloads.

In July 2019 Brandon began stewarding a communal property in Venice, CA called The Mystic Manor, where, up until COVID, he regularly hosted weekly retreats and also began filming Positive Head’s evolution on a new late-night style, consciousness-elevating variety show Optimystic which consists of soul-share interviews, visionary artists live painting, musical performances, and fan co-creation, all recorded in front of a live audience.

In an effort to continue to help others to shift their perspectives to innerstand the “ultimate nature of reality” and create more of what they want to see in the world, Brandon released his first book in January 2021, The Golden Key: Modern Alchemy to Unlock Infinite Abundance. In it, Brandon shares the 8 keys of abundance, which he has unlocked over 25 years of experience and deep exploration. He is gifting these keys to the world via the audio or ebook to help others unlock their own divine potential.

Brandon is also a Co-Founder of a new discount travel platform that is powered by Priceline called HelloVacay which will be launched in the Summer of 2021.

PETER STERLING

When the muse comes calling to any person interested in the arts, she is not always instantly heeded, but perhaps stays in the back on the person’s mind, sometimes for years. Like a lingering memory of something pleasant, she waits patiently for the stars to align and serendipity to enter the picture and that is when the muse is embraced by the person. For some, it happens early in life but for others, it may not occur until a much later period in life. This was the case for Peter Sterling.

Born in Santa Monica, Peter began playing the piano at 6 years old, first accompanying his brother who was practicing violin. For a period of four months, he played, solely by ear, for his mother’s and his own pleasure. After a family friend heard and watched Peter playing, the friend chastised him, saying he was “doing it wrong.” As would almost any child, Peter resented the statement, and stopped playing right after that.

His muse sensed his despair. However, all things come to those who waits Peter’s wait lasted more than a few years. When he was 33, he was earning a living as a ski instructor to celebrities in Aspen, Colorado. It was a good living, but from out of the depths of his memory, his muse called to him. Her siren song was not to be ignored and Peter moved to Sedona, Arizona, drawn to its energy vortices, its natural beauty, and its powerful connection to a higher purpose in life. It was in Sedona that Peter discovered his affinity for, or more accurately, his mystical connection with the Celtic harp. It was 1993 and he took to the instrument, without any formal training or lessons, like the proverbial fish to water. His playing talent sprung forth in an almost organic manner, surprising Peter most of all. As part of this emergence of his muse, and tapping into the positive energies that swirl around Sedona, Peter decided that it was time to rethink much of his life. Making changes to his diet, engaging in energy healing, chiropractic medicine, herbal treatments, and shamanic workshops, Peter “came out of the shadows,” as it were and emerged a wholly changed person.

His career as a recording artist began in 1994 with his first album, Harp Magic, released on the World Disc label. Success came almost immediately as the recording was nominated for the Best Instrumental Album award by NAIRD (now A2IM), an organization for independent musicians. His acclaim continued and grew exponentially in the 2000s with multiple nominations from the prestigious website New Age Reporter/Zone Music Reporter, including several nominations for Album of the Year. His albums consistently charted high up in their top 100, including grabbing the #1 spot for his 2013 release, Twilight Serenade. While his recent works are released on his own Harp Magic label (including his 2018 album, Magic Kingdom), Real Music, one of the giants of new age music, released his Shadow, Mist and Light album in 2005. His most recent recognition came in 2017 when he shared the Hollywood Music and Media Award for Best New Age song.

Besides his music, Peter is also a stained glass and visual artist and has been since before he began playing the harp. His beautiful art work decorates the interior of his Sedona house (including a gallery of his Portals of Light crystal alchemy paintings) which he shares with his son 7-year old son Micah (Peter is a stay at home father and loves it!). In the little spare time he has, he also conducts Jeep tours of Sedona’s canyons for private clients and he is also heavily involved with the growing CBD hemp industry. Even with such a full plate as he has, Peter found time to write a book, Hearing the Angels Sing, and he also conducts workshops on the science of sound healing and sacred geometry.

When he is asked “What is the best part of being a musician?” Peter answers “Creating music that touches the heart and soul of listeners…bring[ing] peace and healing to people all over the world. I love receiving letters about how my music has touched peoples’ lives.” Peter looks back at his path to the present now and humbled at his worldwide success. Back when he was recording his first 8-track compositions on a cassette tape in Byron Bay, Australia, and then marketing it by going door-to-door to Sedona’s stores, he could scarcely imagine that one day his music would reach people across the planet through international airplay (Pandora, SiriusXM, Soundscapes), as well as on major airlines (United and American). Sometimes, it pays to wait for just the right moment to open oneself to one’s muse.

Filippo Voltaggio

Come and join the conversation about what's going on and what we can do together about it, with it, and for it. We have the choice, we have the power. We can do magic if we just believe!

A show about the changes going on in us, to us, around us, and because of us. Therefore, it's technically a show about "Everything," only with a how to make it better, see it better, be better.

In the show, there is talk about, and with, people who have either been through major changes, are helping others with major changes, or people who are changing the world for the better in a major way.

The show is a one-hour talk show format with a monologue by the host, a 30 minute interview with a guest of note, capped by a "Producer's Wrap" segment, in which Filippo and Co-Host Mark Laisure, and sometimes surprise guests, bring it all home for the listeners in a sometimes humorous and sometimes touching, but always entertaining conversation.
