单集简介 ...

This week's guest, Panache Desai, is a contemporary spiritual teacher, author of Discovering Your Soul Signature, and recent guest of Oprah Winfrey on Super Soul Sunday. Desai's connection to spirit, to something bigger than him or any one being, arrived as a child. Embracing it and allowing it to move through him came easily. But, because it also came so early in life, he'd not yet developed the seasoning to be able to understand and apply this wisdom in the most constructive way. It would take years of grappling, growing and even stumbling, often in the public's eye, to begin to forge a deeper wisdom and a more capable channel that would allow him to fully step into, understand and share his gift. TThe catalyst for this rapid evolution, though, would be something Panache Desai never saw coming, his daughter's devastating diagnosis of heart failure. Hours after we spoke with Panache, he would be on a plane to the hospital to join his wife and daughter, who had just been placed on a list for a heart-transplant. He was in a process of reckoning. This is where our conversation began. We dropped into the deep end of the pool very quickly and never really came out. The conversation was powerful, emotional and it will challenge your idea of meaning and connection and remind you of the importance of staying open, leading with love, being forever a student and owning our impact on those around us. We wish Panache and his family love and healing, grace and ease.

  • I was very quickly reminded and actually placed on my knees.

  • I'll never forget it.

  • There's a moment in the chapel in the hospital where I'm literally on my knees, and all I can do is be with the absolute powerlessness that I was present to, the absolute inability to make a difference in the life of this being that I love.

  • My guest today is spiritual teacher and author of the book discovering your soul.

  • Signature panache Desai.

  • You've probably seen him pretty much all over the place, including on Oprah.

  • And our conversation took place and started and went into the deep end of the pool really quickly, which is a good thing, a powerful thing.

  • We went in directions that I didn't see coming, and he shared as we sat in conversation that he was about to get onto a plane hours after this conversation to travel to another state where his young daughter was in heart failure.

  • And we go into that conversation and how that has been for him, and from there, we kind of launch into a deeper discussion of spirituality and reality and what matters and what doesn't.

  • It's a moving, very real conversation and one that I will be revisiting many times.

  • I hope you enjoy it.

  • I'm Jonathan Fields.

  • This is good life project.

  • It's good to be hanging out with you.

  • Yeah, it's great to be hanging out with you, too.

  • Thank you for schlepping over and racing.

  • It's my pleasure.

  • What were you doing in New York?

  • Actually, I just came to see you, actually.

  • So I flew in yesterday and just actually came.
