The Wanderer - Listen to The Beat of Your Heart

Aired Thursday, 8 August 2019

💫 The Wanderer is the story of Nikos Frangiskatos. From open stages to living room concerts to sold-out shows, Nikos is making waves. With his debut single “Down the Road” he has given a beautiful calling card and followed it with many new songs including We’re All Going Home.

🎵 Music is frequency and vibration. It has a healing power when it is made with energy that makes healing possible. As Nikos says, “nowadays most of the music has to be made because it simply has to be made – to be sold. It may sound great, but it is empty. We make sure that you can feel our music, so you can feel the vibration and energy it contains.

💪 It sometimes feels like the world has forgotten what great power music has. We want to lift people through music. Give them a good ‘shot of Life’. Even if it’s for a brief moment.”

🪶Join voice visionary Kara Johnstad and singer-songwriter Nikos Franiskator in a conversation on the power of messages in music, transformational songwriting and how music can change the world for the better.

Breath awareness is a key skill to singing. Breath is life. As we lengthen our exhale we let go of what we are holding onto. As we deepen our inhale we welcome in new life. We give thanks to another day of living. — Kara Johnstad

Anita Moorjani – Sensitive is the New Strong

Aired Monday, June 7, 2021

We are here to share our truth with the world. To honor the parts that crave more from life. Join Voice Visionary Kara Johnstad and author Anita Moorjani in a heartfelt conversation on why sensitivity is not only a superpower but a valuable component of our future evolution. How can we harness our gifts of intuition and empathy in today's fear-based world?

What are some of the practical tools the gifted empath has that help us balance our inner world of thoughts and feelings with our outer material world? By tapping into our authentic self, we can shift the planet's trajectory in a more conscientious and compassionate direction. That is a lifestyle and vision I wish to be a part of. Join us,
at Voice Rising.

Stephen Dinan - Visionary Leadership: Amplifying Wise Voices

Aired Monday, July 12, 2021

🪷 The vision for The Shift Network came to Stephen while on a meditation retreat: “I got a powerful sense that we needed a global network connecting people who are activating more conscious lives to create a world that works for all.” Many years later, what began as a flash of insight has transformed into a thriving organization and global leader in online transformational education, media, and events.

🎙️ Join Kara Johnstad and Stephen Dinan in a heartfelt conversation on the transformational power of Voice. Becoming a Conscious Change Agent is not always easy. Yet, if enough people do the work of transformation, the worst of our problems could be avoided. Our world needs visionary voices.

🔎 Explore with us how Voice amplifies inner wisdom. Discover how to shift our baseline and become instruments of peace. Learn from Stephen’s path as an author, speaker, teacher, and visionary how Voice can help us co-create a kinder, more peaceful, and liveable world for all.
