Gateways to Awakening with Yasmeen Turayhi

Dear Friends,
In this episode of Gateways to Awakening, I sit down with Canadian singer, songwriter, and composer Tammy Weis to explore the extraordinary world of Portuguese poet and philosopher Fernando Pessoa, the mystical energy of Portugal, the Fifth Empire, and the synchronicities that can unfold when we become open to receiving.

Tammy shares how a chance encounter in Lisbon’s Alfama district led her to Pessoa’s poetry, and ultimately inspired Soul Whisper, her album setting his words to music. What followed were dozens of what she calls “Pessoa miracles”: unexpected encounters, collaborations, and synchronicities that completely changed the course of her life. We also explore Pessoa’s many identities, his vision of the Fifth Empire, dreaming and imagination, presence, intuition, frequency, and why his work feels perhaps even more relevant today.
One of the central questions Pessoa’s work continually brings us back to is beautifully simple: “Who am I?” 
And perhaps Tammy’s greatest lesson from this entire journey: “I’m open to receive.”You can listen to the entire episode here: 

In this episode, we explore:
- Fernando Pessoa and the many selves within us, and why his heteronyms were far more than pen names.
- The Fifth Empire, Pessoa’s vision of an empire rooted in language, culture, imagination, intellect, and spirit.
- The mystical energy of Portugal and why Lisbon seems to create such powerful experiences of synchronicity and connection.
- How to stop overthinking and become more grounded in the body, intuition, and the present moment.
- Dreaming and imagination as ways of experiencing realities beyond what is immediately visible.
- Synchronicity and resonance, and what can happen when we stop forcing and become open to receiving.
- Music, frequency, and intention and how Tammy intuitively heard music while reading Pessoa’s poetry.
- Presence before explanation, experiencing life before immediately analyzing or judging it.
- The deeper invitation of Pessoa’s work: to question who we think we are and become more open to the mystery of what we might be.
Ultimately, this conversation is an invitation to think less, perceive more, and become open to the synchronicities already trying to find us. We're now opening a private Gateways Community membership for those interested in processing the podcast and joining live monthly calls to discuss the content. Learn more here.

What if reality is far more fluid than we’ve been taught to believe?

In this episode of Gateways to Awakening, I sit down with Cynthia Sue Larson, bestselling author of Reality Shifts, Quantum Jumps, The Mandela Effect and Its Society, and High Energy Money.
Cynthia has a background in physics from UC Berkeley and has spent decades exploring consciousness, reality shifts, synchronicities, quantum phenomena, and what happens when our experience of reality doesn’t quite match what we thought was possible. 
She wrote the book about the Mandela Effect, which Cynthia describes as “collective alternate memory,” and why different people can seemingly remember the same events, words, places, or cultural moments differently.

 “We are the dreamer. We are in the dream.” - Cynthia Sue Larson 

We begin by exploring what Cynthia calls reality shifts, those strange moments when something appears, disappears, changes, or seems to exist differently than we remember, and her belief that consciousness plays a fundamental role in how we experience the physical world.
Throughout the episode, we explore:
- What reality shifts are and how to begin noticing them
- Whether consciousness can influence our experience of reality
- Quantum jumping and moving between possible timelines
- Why our internal state and perspective matter
- The Mandela Effect and collective alternate memories
- Whether the past, present, and future are as fixed as we assume
- Individual versus collective realities
- Free will, destiny, and conscious agency
- Why Cynthia asks herself every day: “How good can it get?”

Dear Friends, 

In this episode of Gateways to Awakening, I sit down with Gold Porter, founder and spokesperson for Artifact Guardians, and Marza Flowers, a Stanford scholar of archaeoacoustics and Egyptian sound consciousness, registered nurse, clinical herbalist, medicine woman, and longtime student of ancient civilizations and Indigenous medicine ways.
Raised in Indigenous medicine ways, she carries ceremonial teachings connected to the sacred Door of the Ant and works across Egyptian temple studies, vibrational medicine, cymatics, plant medicine, and shamanic traditions.
We explore ancient crystalline artifacts and skulls emerging from Mexico and Gold and Marza's experiences of them as objects carrying consciousness or information.

Rather than approaching these artifacts through ownership, they describe their work through the lens of guardianship and relationship. Marza shares her perspective on ancient Egyptian sound technology, sacred architecture, portals, and the importance of approaching sacred sites with discernment and proper training.

We also explore her views on timelines, the Mandela Effect and CERN, and why she believes humanity is being asked to evolve our consciousness alongside our rapidly accelerating technology.

In this episode, we explore:
- Ancient crystalline artifacts and what it means to become their “guardian”
- Crystal skulls, consciousness and the possibility of information held within matter
- Egyptian sound consciousness and sacred architecture
- Ancient civilizations, portals and the importance of discernment
- Marza's perspective on CERN, the Mandela Effect and overlapping timelines
- Indigenous knowledge and our relationship with the Earth
- Ancient intelligence versus artificial intelligence
- Why our humanity must evolve alongside our technology
- Prayer, heart coherence and unified consciousness

“Everything for me is that word home—going inward and finding your inner compass.” — Gold
“The thing that calibrates our humanity is our heart.” — Marza

Dear Friends, 
In this episode of Gateways to Awakening, I sit down with my new friend, David Lorimer, writer, poet, philosopher, Programme Director of the Scientific and Medical Network, and Chair of the Galileo Commission. We recently met in the South of France, while I was on Dr. Nicola Amadora's Mary Magdalene tour.
For decades, David has been at the forefront of conversations exploring consciousness, science, spirituality, near-death experiences, and the deeper nature of reality.
We begin with David’s lifelong “quest for wisdom” and why true wisdom cannot be separated from love, compassion, discernment, and direct experience. 
We also dive into the research surrounding near-death experiences, survival of consciousness, and the possibility that death is not an ending, but a transition into another mode of consciousness. David shares decades of experience studying these phenomena and the recurring patterns reported by people who have come close to death.
“We have to wake up, and we have to try to use our lives to contribute to the larger common good, and to grow in love and wisdom.”
— David Lorimer
Key Takeaways
- Wisdom is more than knowledge. True wisdom integrates discernment and deeper understanding with love and compassion.
- Intuition is fundamental to discovery. Major scientific breakthroughs often begin with intuitive insight before the analytical mind works out the science.
- Our current scientific understanding of consciousness may be incomplete, opening the door to a much larger exploration of the nature of mind and reality.
- Death may be a transition rather than an ending. Near-death experiences show striking recurring patterns, including peace, out-of-body experiences, beings of light, and life reviews.
- We may be expressions of one consciousness, raising profound questions about interconnectedness and the nature of the self.
- The mind and heart need to develop together. Intellectual or spiritual knowledge alone does not necessarily create an integrated human being.
- Mary Magdalene offers another lens on the Divine Feminine and the integration of sacred masculine and feminine principles.
Our lives can serve something larger. The invitation is to wake up, expand our consciousness, contribute to the common good, and continue growing in love and wisdom.

What if sound is one of the fundamental forces shaping our bodies, our consciousness, and even the world around us?
In this episode of Gateways to Awakening, I sit down with legendary sound healer, Grammy-nominated musician, author, and pioneer Jonathan Goldman, who has spent more than 50 years exploring the transformational power of sound.
We dive into Jonathan’s newest book, Ascension Harmonics, and his exploration of the Divine Name, an ancient sequence of sacred vowel sounds he describes as a “hotline to the Divine.”
“It is not only the frequency of the sound that creates its effect. It is also the intention of the person making and receiving the sound.” — Jonathan Goldman 
In this episode, we explore:
Why Jonathan believes everything can be understood through vibration

How sound may help restore the body to resonance and balance

The principle Frequency + Intent = Healing

Why love, gratitude, kindness, and appreciation transform the way we use sound

The science and practice of humming

Why every person is a unique vibratory being

The ancient Divine Name and Jonathan’s work with sacred vowel sounds

Sound, the biofield, and what Jonathan calls the “Gaia Matrix”

Collective intention and planetary healing

The relationship between sound, water, and DNA

Jonathan’s extraordinary experience of sound becoming light

Why silence is just as essential as sound

And why healing ourselves and healing the planet may ultimately be the same act

Jonathan leaves us with a beautifully simple practice: take a breath, hum, and then become silent. In a world filled with noise, the space between sounds may hold some of the greatest gifts of all.
We would LOVE to hear from you! What did you learn?
