In this episode of The Love Cast with Jamal podcast, I had the privledge of interviewing Jay Alan, founder and CEO of Gangstaholistic.  Several years ago, Jay found himself on the verge of death. In his thirties, Jay developed chronic and uncontrolled hypertension which led to stage two renal disease and congestive heart failure. He was literally on the verge of death. This is when he decided to take control of his health. In three months, Jay had completely reversed his congestive heart failure and renal disease by embracing a holistic approach to health. This success eventually led Jay to creating a company called gangstaholistic which aims to give people access to health and wellness. I strongly encourage you to listen to this episode carefully.

Did you know that your physical body is a replica of your energy body?  Did you know that your energy body is where all ease and dis-ease originates? Did you know that plant based psychedelics are typically more popular in the Western world, but are often discouraged as a spiritual path by many yogis in the Eastern world? Do you know why this is?  In this episode of The Love Cast with Jamal podcast, Aly Sousa joins the conversation with Jamal to explore these topics further.

Nathan Riley

In this episode of The Love Cast with Jamal podcast, I interview Dr. Nathan Riley MD, OB-GYN about how his experience as a physician in the western medical system led him to disillusionment, a spiritual awakening, and eventually to move beyond the traditional medical model to create a practice that is one of the most effective in the nation.    Nathan Riley, MD, is a board-certified OB-GYN and fellow of ACOG who left the medical industrial complex due to his disillusionment with the “standard of care” within the conventional maternity care model. This was hard because “going with the flow” of hospital-based practice was providing him financial security. On the other hand, standing in his truth from having sat with over 1000 births and connecting with women and their families has provided him a lifestyle more in alignment with fatherhood, deepening his connection with his wife, and caring for people in the way that he had anticipated long before stepping into practice.  Dr. Riley now focuses his time on upholding the traditional practice of midwifery. He supports midwives as a collaborative physician for midwives of all varieties in over twenty states. He is an advocate for home birth and still attends births for those in need. He boasts a c-section rate of

If I'm being honest, although I am an author, I am not someone who typically likes to read books. I almost never seek out books, and would rather do many other things in my down time than read. With that said, some books have a way of finding me. When they do, they usually find me because of frequency.  A book recently came into my awareness called 'Returning To Eden' by Heather Hamilton. As soon as I began to interact with the book, I realized that the frequency of this book is refreshing, and one that I deeply resonate with in many ways.  If you identify as a Christian, especially as an evangelical Christian, let me gently encourage you to consider listening to this episode of The Love Cast with Jamal podcast as I interview Heather Hamilton about her new book Returning To Eden. Let me also encourage you to get a copy of her book Returning To Eden.  No, not because you will agree with everything in this podcast interview, (or her book), but because it may cause you to consider a perspective that your current sources of information have not been able to present you with. Growth is important for us all, and it takes conscious effort to remain open-minded and to not fall into a closed echo chamber. This is a typical challenge in belief systems of all kinds. On the other hand, if you have been deeply damaged by the Christian religion and find anything resembling your previous faith to be distaseful or triggering, let me also gently encourage you to listen to this episode of The Love Cast with Jamal podcast, and also to consider reading Returning to Eden. You may find it to be restoritive in ways you may not have thought possible.

Returning To Eden- A Conversation With Best Selling Author Heather Hamilton

In this episode of The Love Cast with Jamal, Aly Sousa joins me on the show once again to reveal and discuss another paradigm that keeps many of us stuck and unproductive in life. Ironically, a major tendency that works against our productivity in life is the compulisve drive to get ahead and accomplish tasks. This drive leads many of us to compuslive busyness and multi-tasking.  For many of us, if we are not busy doing many different things, we may feel unproductive and lazy, leading to guilt, shame, and addictive patterns of escape. For others, the feeling of unproductivity may motivate us to work harder and do more things. Either way, this pattern is a major drain of our life force energy which leads to an unproductive life. Let me encourage you to give this conversation an important listen.

Why Busyness & Multi-tasking Leads To Unproductivity. A New Conversation with Aly Sousa

In this episode of The Love Cast with Jamal Podcast, I had the opportunity to sit down with Rachel King, an award winning attorney &amp; litigator, who founded her own law firm in 2014. Rachel's firm specializes in business law, family law, estate law, real estate law, etc...  Rachel is a serial entrepreneur starting at the age of 12. This work ethic and drive at an early age led to 7 years of military service. Utilizing the disciplined skills to move forward owning multiple business, Rachel acquired the desire to continue expanding her talents. The passion for Law was instilled in her from birth from her father’s law career, so she followed in his footsteps opening her own law firm in 2014. I enjoyed my conversation with Rachel and wanted to share it with you as it gives us a rare look into the life of an attorney who has a desire to use her talents as an attorney to promote healing and peace in a field of law often filled with anger and division.

Is the new post pandemic phenomenon of 'Quiet Quitting' a move toward laziness, or is it a move toward a healthy work / life balance? In this episode of The Love Cast with Jamal podcast, I asked Country Music Artist &amp; Media Coach Amy Scruggs to come back on the podcast to talk more about her recent appearance on the Dr. Phil show where they discussed and debated the post pandemic phenomenon called 'Quiet Quitting'. This was a controversial topic on the Dr. Phil show, and is one that needs to be unpacked further in our national discourse in my observation. I invite you to listen to Amy's perspective on the Dr. Phil show, and also to listen to my interview with her in today's episode.

Communication Beyond The Grave- An Interview with Unlikely Medium Isabeau Maxwell

What happens to us after we die?     For many people, this question is relegated to religious beliefs or intellectual conjecture. Almost no one speaks from their own personal experience because they have not yet died in this life.     There are some people, however, that have experienced their own death and miraculously have returned to speak of their conscious memories of their experience beyond their bodies.     On this episode of The Love Cast with Jamal podcast, I interview an amazing woman who died in a severe car accident and was resuscitated with a profound life altering experience beyond her body.   It’s not too often that you talk to someone who has died and consciously experienced life beyond the body, so I invite you to listen in closely to this episode.

Do you like Mondays? Did you know that the average person only experiences about four thousand Mondays in their entire life? How many Mondays have you already spent? How many do you think you have left? It’s been said that although death is the destruction of the body, it is the awareness of death that actually saves our lives.

Jodi named her business Four Thousand Mondays because it shines light on the finite number of weeks that an average human being has in their life. As a result, we need to live with focused intention and awareness. Jodi holds a Master’s of Applied Positive Psychology from the University of Pennsylvania, where she is also an Assistant Instructor. As a certified coach with 25 years of corporate leadership experience, she helps executives, teams, and high performers work well and live even better.

Episode 98- The Sound of Pilgrimage- An Interview With Poet & Speech Pathologist Rebecca Bayles  

Every birth is the Christmas story.   In EVERY conception is the Christmas story.  It is the Divine and the human coming together in each and every conception.   Chances are, you have probably been told that the Christmas story is only about the birth of one man, two thousand years ago, who was the light of the world.  The Christmas story is typically understood as the divine incarnating as a human being (Jesus) who is called Emmanuel (which means God with us).  Chances are, you've been told that Jesus is the real reason for the Christmas season.  If this is the case, I believe you are actually missing the main point of the Christmas story.  The real lasting and enduring power of the Christmas story isn't only about the human incarnation of divinity through the birth of Jesus, its about divine incarnation in each and every birth.  Before you react negatively to this reframing of the Christmas story, let me encourage you to listen in entirety to this latest episode of The Love Cast as my bride Taylor and I discuss why the real miracle of Christmas points to the birth of humanity as a whole (including you and me), not just one man.  The implications for our lives are many.

Episode 100: *YOU* Are The Real Reason For The Christmas Season...

Episode 91: What Do You Really Want? (Stage 2- intentions continued)

Are you sitting down?  Okay, good.  Well, I have some fantastic news for you.  Many of us, myself included, read physical books less and less these days.  In place of physical books, many now listen to their books as audio books while on a jog, in the car, around the house, commuting by train, etc... So, it is with great excitement that I get to announce that Living For A Living is now available on Audible.com as an audio book!   I spent many hours in the recording studio recording this book that is near and dear to my heart.  I personally believe that we are all here on purpose, and moving into that purpose is the key to actually living for a living, as opposed to living only to survive.  This is why I wanted to get this book out as an audio book as well.  In this episode of The Love Cast, I share a sample chapter with you to hear so you can decide if you'd like to get an audio copy for yourself or a loved one.  Give this episode a careful listen, and then get your audio copy of Living For A Living  HERE.
