Rob Fried is the CEO of Chromadex which makes TRU NIAGEN. And when you hear why he's so excited for this game-changing product - it'll all make sense.

I've struggled with how to present the write up for this episode, simply because I know it's so controversial. But I'll say this: We're not being given the facts about the science (or lack thereof) behind vaccine safety. We've been told vaccine injuries are 1 in 1-million. We've been told that they're safe an effective in protecting us from scary diseases. We've also been lead to believe that anyone who questions vaccines is diluted. But you're different. You ask questions. You're curious. You listen to eye-opening podcasts which present a broad spectrum of data and resources. SO, I present to you a fact-based conversation about the vaccine debate. Del Bigtree - Founder of the Informed Action Consent Network (ICAN) is one of the most outspoken advocates for consumer safety on the planet, and he has the credentials to back it up. He's produced award-winning television shows including CBS "Doctors," "Dr. Phil," and has produced one of the most controversial documentary films ever released called "Vaxxed." "Vaxxed tells the story of CDC whistleblower Dr. William Thompson, who shared that the CDC covered up research that linked vaccines to autism. In this episode, we tackle the issue of vaccine safety head on and Del shares with us cited, proven data that explains the Big Pharma's plan to inject all of us against our will.

WARNING: THIS EPISODE IS ENERGETICALLY POTENT Author Paul Selig has written 6 books as a channeling medium. These are the result of wisdom that is channeled through a group of non-physical masters. Paul has recorded an extraordinary program for personal and planetary evolution as humankind awakens to its own divine nature. Why is this important for performance? Each of us is looking for purpose, meaning and depth in our lives. We crave it - but most of us don't have references or resources to seek out meaning. The wisdom that Paul channels provides us with universal wisdom that we can learn in order to better understand ourselves. Once we can better understand ourselves in a purposeful way, we can live a deeper and more optimal life. During this episode, Paul transitions from a normal 1-on-1 conversation into a state in which he begins to channel the wisdom directly from his spiritual guides. He speaks repetitively as a way to receive the words and then speak them out loud. What we cover in this episode: • What is the small self? • What are the mantras that will help us know ourselves? • How does having a deeper spiritual awareness help us? • What can we do to better serve and be more aligned with our highest self?
