What Is Consciousness? How It Shapes Your Emotions Without You Realizing It | EP 20

What do a rainy day, a latte, and a runaway scroll session have in common?

They’re all part of a deep dive into something that sounds simple—but is sneakily powerful: consciousness.

In this episode, we’re not just talking about being “awake” or “mindful.” We’re unpacking the whole layered lasagna of consciousness—one steamy, spicy layer at a time.

🧠 From self-awareness to flow states, meta-awareness to collective moods, Kim takes you on a walk through the coffee shop of your mind (literally).

☕ It’s cozy, it’s real, and you don’t need a philosophy degree to follow along. Just a little curiosity.

Inside this episode, you’ll taste:

• The difference between wakefulness and awareness

• What phenomenal consciousness feels like (hello cozy mug and rainy-day vibes)

• Access consciousness (when your brain hands you a metaphor out of nowhere)

• Self-awareness and meta-awareness (a.k.a. getting lost in scrolling and then catching yourself)

• Subconscious processing and memory pop-ins

• Collective consciousness and emotional radio stations

• Flow state magic—when everything just clicks

• And moral consciousness, the compass that quietly points us toward kindness

💡 Why does it matter?

Because when you understand the flavors of your own consciousness, you stop running on autopilot. You shift from being a passive passenger in your emotional life to the chef remixing your own emotional recipes. And that is the beginning of emotional freedom.

💬 Quote from the Episode:

“You can’t change what you’re not conscious of—but the second you become aware? Game on.”

Follow Kim for insights, emotional recipes, and a whole lot of curiosity served with a whole lot of heart.
