Episode 131: Justin Shaw

Following a long battle with substance abuse, ADHD, PTSD, depression and anxiety disorders, author Justin Shaw, a former stand-up comedian experienced firsthand the redeeming power of Source energy in a mind-bending moment of blissful awakening. This led him to study and practice various spiritual teachings from across the globe, as well as gain an ability to access the sea of pure information existing in the quantum field. A new life as a "hope dealer" emerged.

In his book, Sourcery 101, he provides an actionable step-by-step plan for sourcing a spiritual revolution. Loaded with humor, he examines the 13 rungs as he weaves his story with modern pop culture metaphors to illustraate ancient wisdom. He offers powerful insights from the quantum field to create a dynamic system of healing that bypasses the barriers of the mind and reaches directly into the heart and soul -  the seat of long-lasting transformation.

You will laugh, think, and feel the whole way through his book and this interview as Shaw communicates that becoming a Sourcerer is less about finding yourself and more about creating yourself by using the unified, unbound power that lives in you: Source energy. His system assists you in developing the ability to respond, instead of react, to frustrating worldly situations that can and will be presented to you on your journey to illumination.
