Did you know that everything around you is conscious and responding to you in various ways?
It may sound woo-woo, but there’s legitimate scientific research to support this idea!
In this “Listen Again” episode of The Gathering Room podcast, I talk about the synchronicities and “God winks” that occur when we realize we’re all one field of consciousness.
If you’re ready for...
I’ve long believed that a transformation of human consciousness would take place in my lifetime. And I feel that this “new consciousness” is both a state and a place that we can access.
I’ve also been thinking more about what I call “wayfinding” and how it can help us all reach this new consciousness. In this "Listen Again" episode of The Gathering Room, I share how to “wayfind&rdqu...
Did you know that the right hemisphere of your brain is doing supercomputer-level processing all the time, whether you’re aware of it or not?
Wild, right? Martha calls the right hemisphere “the magician” because it can come up with the most amazing, brilliant solutions to very difficult problems, seemingly out of thin air.
In this episode of The Gathering Room: Awakening Your Magician, Martha t...
Our culture generally teaches us that anxiety will keep us safe—but really it’s our intuition that does that!
In this “Listen Again” episode of The Gathering Room, I explore how to tell the difference between anxiety and intuition, and how to hear what your intuition is trying to tell you.
To find out more about listening to your intuition and how to discover its frequency of joy—and to join me i...
In this Listen Again episode of The Gathering Room, Martha talks about following your curiosity to activate the right side of the brain, which is where our passion lives. And our passion is what leads us to our life’s purpose. If you want to start looking for things that draw your attention (rather than push yourself toward the things you think you should do), and you’re ready to prepare yourself to follow your curiosit...
There’s no question about it—we’re living in chaotic times.
We’re all trying to be happy and at peace, and we often think we need to find external circumstances that are conducive to those states. But did you know that there is a bedrock of stillness and kindness that we can drop into, no matter what’s going on around us?
In this “Listen Again” episode of The Gathering Room, I&r...
As Martha says, “We are the ones who can start to lead our lives in the direction that our higher selves are signaling to us to go and potentially help a lot of other people whose sensitivities may not be quite as strong—and in this way we serve the world.”
To learn how to appreciate, listen to, and trust your powerful sensitivity, join Martha for the full episode, where she’ll also guide you in her groundin...
Have you ever found yourself striving for spiritual growth, only to feel anxious and exhausted by all your efforts?
The reason is that nothing moves during the times we’re striving and stressing. It’s only when we let go completely that the universe brings it to us.
In this episode of The Gathering Room, I explore this peculiar spiritual paradox: how pushing ourselves harder to attain alignment—for ...
Lately I’ve been feeling lost… How about you?
It’s not surprising. The world is undergoing some truly unprecedented things, and it’s creating unprecedented changes in many of our lives. Navigating the unprecedented means we have to venture into uncharted territory. And that feels a whole lot like being lost.
In this episode of The Gathering Room, I’m talking about feeling lost during ti...
I’m very excited, Gatherers, because lately I feel that something is changing in this world in a profound way, and I don’t think I’m the only one… There’s a feeling of irrational hope, a strange joy, a sense that something wonderful is happening in the midst of all the horrors.
I’ve always been obsessed with the idea that we humans would change the way we live in a dramatic way at some point dur...
For this Gathering Room episode, I drew inspiration from a recent Ani DiFranco concert, as well as Ecclesiastes 3 and the song “Turn! Turn! Turn!”, to explore the unexpected emergence of hope in this time of global upheaval—and how you can learn to access it.
If you’re searching for connection, comfort, or the motivation to keep “dancing,” tune in for the full episode, where I’ll also...
Do you ever find yourself wondering if it’s foolish to keep hoping for good things to happen, especially with our world in the state it’s in?
Whenever I have this thought, I remind myself that if we stop ourselves from hoping, we cut ourselves off from the creativity that is meant to build what comes next. It’s only by refusing to use the human capacity for hope that we can be truly defeated.
On this episode of Th...
All my life I’ve been waiting for a transformation of human consciousness. And I always thought that it would be a gentle and beautiful awakening, essentially like what the Buddha experienced.
I suppose in some universes it might happen that way…but in the universe where I find myself now, I’m seeing massive upheaval and disruption instead.
In this episode of The Gathering Room podcast, I’m sharing my...
These days life can seem extremely chaotic—have you felt it, too?
Whether it’s the noise of the world or the noise of your own thoughts, there’s so much happening and so many things to think about that it can really get your head spinning with questions like:
What am I supposed to be doing?
Where is my attention supposed to be?
How do I rest my heart?
The good news is this: You already have a sti...

Do you ever feel like a hamster running on a wheel?
Hamsters may love to scurry, but it tends to make us humans anxious and exhausted. Unfortunately, we live in a world that constantly pressures us to keep up with an increasingly frantic pace. And while we run faster and faster, the only place we ever reach is burnout.
It’s when we start to get to burnout and the wheel is still going so fast that we start to g...

It is a weird world out there right now, and if you’re like me, you’re feeling more than a little anxious. Anxiety has been called the mental illness of our time, but in fact, it’s not a mental illness. It’s an understandable reaction to an abnormal world that we never evolved to handle.
As I’ve written in my book Beyond Anxiety and talked about at length, creativity is the opposite of that anx...
In this episode of The Gathering Room podcast, I’m talking about the power of inspiration and how we can actively go “hunting” for it amidst the sea of misinformation and disinformation we all have to navigate each day.
To learn more about actively hunting for inspiration and how it can help you create positive change in the world, join me for the full episode!
