On today’s SOLO episode of the podcast we go deep into Jordan’s journey with alcohol and sobriety. She has been sober for 18 months now and has never felt better. In this episode we get into spirituality, high vibrational living, healing from Lyme, 5D consciousness, channeling, microdosing, and beyond! We also answer an audience Q&A about sobriety. Some amazing questions you guys had cover how to keep friends when making a lifestyle change, whether or not Jordan’s husband Jonathan drinks, if Jordan regrets her years of drinking, what the hardest part about ditching alcohol was, what the Pleiadians have to say about the sober life (!!) and so much more. Jordan tells stories from her ayahuasca journeys and Lyme healing experiences in this episode as well. We can’t wait for you to listen and to hear your thoughts!

One where we can talk about everything from wellness, channeling, aliens, and spirituality to the important topics of anti-racism, equality, and justice for all human beings — and Aycee ties that all together perfectly.  The work Aycee does is about transformation and offering a deeper look inside of yourself. She’s all about shifting people’s mindsets by serving entrepreneurs, executives, and thought leaders who are ready to dig deeper into their own self-discovery.

Shaman Durek returns to TBB podcast for a third conversation! This episode is extremely special. The conversation goes deep into racism in the royal family and the wellness world and how Shaman Durek has overcome that pain + how he deals and shows up for LOVE and unity above all else. He’s a very, very special person in Jordan’s life, and in this conversation he talks all about his relationship with the princess of Norway, Märtha Louise. How they met, falling in love, when marriage will come, and beyond! They also go deep on everything going on in the world: Coronavirus, Black Lives Matter, racism, and more. Shaman Durek gives a shamanic take on what to expect and what’s to come. This is a raw and honest conversation and one of Jordan’s favorites in a long, long time. He’s the author of the book “Spirit Hacking,” and host of the podcast Ancient Wisdom Today, which you have to check out if you haven’t yet. Things have been so overwhelming in the world, and Shaman Durek has the amazing power to put things into perspective and really transform the way you feel. As a shaman, he works with energy to communicate + heal. This conversation will blow your mind, brighten your spirits, and ultimately we hope will make you feel more seen + heard.

There’s so much going on right now and things are feeling very heavy. For those of us who are so energetically sensitive, open, and engaged, it can be a hard time — yet a revolutionary time. Things are changing for the better even though they might feel dark right now. So today we are discussing shadow work on the spiritual journey, and diving deep into the details of what an awakening looks like. Jordan offers her advice on how you can do some of that inner work, find joy, and live your truth. In this episode, Jordan shares some of her thoughts about channeling, awakening, healing, spirituality, and waking up. She is still on the journey of waking up to her soul, her spiritual and psychic gifts— it’s a forever journey. She dives into deets about aliens, Pleiadians, Akashic records, 5D consciousness, angels, past lives, and more. And a bit of food combining, because we’re well rounded over here. ;) Jordan also spends time addressing questions from The Balanced Blonde community!

Jasmine Leyva is a director, actor, and filmmaker responsible for the documentary “The Invisible Vegan,” which explores the problem of unhealthy dietary patterns in the African-American community. She talks about the opportunities of health and wellness enabled by a plant-based life in those communities. All of the prevalent documentaries in the plant-based community are made by white people — mostly men — and while all of these are important for the cause, Jasmine wanted to come at it from a different, important angle that hadn’t been explored before. She is so kind and has a loving spirit + she shares openly some of her life experiences, both beautiful + painful. Thank you Four Sigmatic for sponsoring the show!
