harmonics

On today’s podcast I chat with future careers and workplace expert, John Fitzgerald, the founder of Harmonics.

John, the author of “Future proof your career from the inside out” and host of “The Chord” podcast chats about his life and career as well as all things work.

We spend huge chunks of our lives at work so we owe it to ourselves to get the most from this precious time.

It's absolutely, divinely aligned that our first guest is my wonderful friend and incredible vocal coach Elise Tanyag. In a delightfully spontaneous conversation, Elise and I flowingly weave connections between coffee, The Hermit tarot card, ancestral / intergenerational patterning, and vocal harmonics. Highlighting the power of zooming out perspective, allowing space for what is, and lighting one's own way.

It's a joy to offer you this opportunity to connect with/in this special energetic environment that we are co-creating together. Thanks for flowing with me, with us, with oneness, with the wholeness that is.

episode transcript

about Elise:
Born and raised in the San Francisco Bay Area, Elise has been singing, performing, and composing music for over a decade. Her musical journey started at the age of 9 with private lessons in contemporary R&B singing. Since then, she has won a national contest, regularly performed on main stages, and written original music for a variety of organizations and musicians. Elise graduated with my A.A. in Music from Diablo Valley College where I studied classical voice and music theory. Shortly before receiving my B.A. of Performing Arts & Social Justice from the University of San Francisco, she discovered a love for teaching and has been privately coaching since.

He holds a Bachelor of Music with a double major in Music Theory and Composition, and a Master of Arts degree in Music Education from Columbia University Teachers College. As a recipient of the Mellon Fellowship he also earned a Master of Arts and a Master of Philosophy degrees in Ethnomusicology from Columbia University where he was enrolled in the Ph.D. program. He has taught various music courses at the same institution. The works of Alexandre Tannous are frequently performed in the United States, Europe, and in Asia.

This spring I attended a meditation retreat hosted and taught by Dr. Joe Dispenza.

A fan of his work, it was amazing to experience, in person, the principles of his teaching and research. One of the thing Dispenza teaches is a modern take on chakras, the ancient Indian understanding of energy in the body.

My introduction to chakras was through yoga but more recently I’ve been learning about these ideas from Dispenza, specifically in his book Becoming Supernatural, and also at the meditation retreat I attended.

I’m no expert, but the seven energy centres in our body are fascinating to discuss and explore. And so I start this episode with a summary of each energy centre or chakra.

As if integrative medicine, transcendent spiritual experiences, and quantum physics weren’t interesting enough I add another angle to this conversation, the idea of harmonics theory in music.

I’m not a doctor. I’m not a scientist. I’m not a guru. But I am a musician. And the theory of harmonics adds a layer of depth and a complementary lens through which to understand energy, both scientifically and spiritually.

Maybe those two categories – science and spirituality – often seen in opposition to each other, are just two sides of the same coin called “being human”.

Join me in this episode as I sit down with my upright piano to teach the seven chakras and an introduction to harmonics theory (and consider how these two things might be related); and ask you to evaluate the frequency of your own life and what it’s teaching you.

Richard Lighthouse joins us and we chat about the “lighthouse” affect - the actual frequency (1.39 Thz) of the Universe. The universe is actually blinking on and off, and matching that frequency could affect time. We chat about scientists looking for a solution between the quantum and newtonian physics, how technology has possibly been developed around this “lighthouse” frequency, what the Seth material says about this. 

We also get into the “Hutchison affect”, 911 and Judy Woods work, and some of our previous episodes like the Electric Universe theory.

In the intro we tease an upcoming episode on Darren’s vacation and Graham’s trip to Red Pill Expo. We read some listener synchro’s, and some feedback from one of our newer listeners.
