Hello

So glad you’re here.

Whatever brought you may be hard, ugly, and not what you wanted.

That happens. We struggle. Get lost. Feel really alone. Overwhelmed. Whatever.

I get it.

Crazily enough, that can be a good thing.

It’s what got you here. To this starting point.

Which is why SOULCANDY exists: to gather the best insights and practices from ancient wisdom to modern science so you have a profound and practical roadmap to unleashing your highest Self.

Yes.

I’ve spent decades creating some of the biggest, most successful websites, books, and magazines in health and science and I’ve studied spiritual traditions from around the world and the result is a profoundly simple set of practices to help you cut through the confusion, distractions, old habits (whatever is holding you back) so you can find peace, discover your purpose and experience the turbo-charged power that comes from living in alignment with who you are and why you’re here.

Big stuff.

Simple practices. Life-changing. But not necessarily easy. Not small. No more time for playing small.

We didn’t here come to be small. Or to hide.

We just get lost sometimes. No problem. We can get un-lost. We can wake up. We can get going. We can do big things. You can do what you truly deeply love, what’s calling to you.

You are in the right place.

How can I be so sure?

MY STORY

I know a lot about being trapped, paralyzed, lost and struggling in layers of busyness and people-pleasing, restless, angry, jealous and impatient.

And sensing that there was more.

Calling to me like a black box, pinging from the bottom of the ocean. Faint, but persistent.

Do you know that feeling? That sense that more is possible for you? But you can’t access it? It’s always just out of reach?

I’ve sensed that since I was a little kid, feeling that there’s a world of possibilities out of my reach, feeling stuck, silenced, powerless.

I’m sure part of that was because I grew up in an awful angry violent house and intuited that to survive, I needed to hide, flatter, fawn, become whatever, whoever someone else wanted or needed.

As I got older, hiding became as automatic as breathing. I got rewarded for not-being. People want their own needs met and I was grateful to oblige.

But life has a funny way of intervening and saving us. Our true self has a way of bleeding through. The homing pigeon finds his way home.

Deep from inside my silent bunker, I was always searching for a kind of freedom that didn’t even have a name. Strangely enough, I became an editor in chief many times over, an expert at tracking down experts who knew how to help people reveal their inner self to the outer world.

Interviewing scientists, doctors, researchers, neuroscientists, therapists, practitioners, spiritual leaders, wisdom teachers, authors, writers, deep thinkers and exploring new frontiers in happiness, health, science, and spirituality, I wrote two New York Times bestselling books, appeared on hundreds of TV shows and podcasts, led big brands like National Geographic, Prevention, and Mindful, sharing the most authoritative health, science, mental wellness information with millions of people. I even attended seminary school, studying faith traditions around the world and become an ordained interfaith minister

Deep dives into the whole enchilada: mind, body, spirit.

Truth is, we all have a part of us that is pinging. Calling out to you.

No matter how lost.

You can find your way.

You can learn to listen deeply.

So that something miraculous opens up inside of you, something that’s been there all along, quietly nesting, that greets and welcomes you, a homecoming both familiar and new: a magnificent call from the depths of your soul.

Where God, Source, Spirit, Higher Power, Nature, Universal Flow, the Tao, whatever you call it, a vast universal flow of love and goodness that’s beyond understanding, inviting, calming, energizing and exciting all the same, embraces you with a Yes that’s bigger, deeper, wider than you can imagine. That Yes that’s been dancing at the edges for so long is finally a Yes you feel in your heart and a surge of power propelling you to live your dreams, just as you are meant to be.

Yes, yes and yes.

Are you ready?

So glad you’re here.

Let’s get going.
