Calvin is the founder and CEO of Simplero, spiritual teacher, speaker, author and investor.

His is a story of identity; of discovering who he truly is, and becoming that person.

It's been hard work, but it's also been deeply rewarding for him. He’s gone from struggling with business, health, relationships, creativity, and purpose, to having all of those areas working in perfect synchrony.

He’s gone from being this Gordian knot of mental, emotional, and physical baggage to being pretty darn clear and fired up.

He’s gone from smoking a pack a day, drinking quite a lot, eating like crap, and never working out, to having six-pack abs, a body he’s proud to see in the mirror, and having more energy and stamina than ever.

He’s gone from being bankrupt to having four businesses making millions of dollars, and a team of 35 people.

His mission is to create the greatest force for personal and spiritual growth the world has ever seen so that collectively we can create the world we want to live in.

By helping people transform lives at scale, Calvin is empowering humanity to solve our biggest challenges.

In this month's episode of Why Are We Like This? Kristen and I go all in on the topic of judgement. We both share on our perspectives of what judgment truly is, if all judgment is self-judgment, how we can move through it and what we believe it's trying to teach us.

• “No matter if it's a snail's pace or it's not going like I thought it would or I want it to, I still would choose exactly what I'm doing. I would choose exactly what I'm doing. And that is like a breath of fresh air.” [16:39]

Welcome to May’s episode of Why Are We Like This?: Anxiety Edition

In this month’s episode, Kristen and I share on a topic that’s been popping up for both us, and for our clients + community: anxiety. 

Each of us has our own experience of what it feels like to dance with this feeling, and with what stirs it up in us. This episode is all about our own personal exploration of it, along with the shifts we’ve made in our own lives to help navigate and/or relinquish it where possible. 

As the world around us becomes even more overwhelming, we’ve both found the importance of managing our nervous systems, controlling what we can, and finding acceptance with (and letting go of) what we can’t. 

We hope you enjoy the conversation and if you find some piece of it useful, we’d be honored if you shared and tagged us: @amberlilyestrom and @kristenhubbardwrites over on Instagram!

So, for our listening audience and family's sake, I just want to put that very sensitively. I also urge you to listen to this conversation if you're feeling up to it, because Lauryn is a gift, and her teachings as a somatic business coach and as someone who is here to help women create businesses that allow for real life to happen, are a profound blessing.

In today’s world, at the forefront of most of our worries and the root of many of our conflicts is one thing: money. 

It’s no secret that money is essential to our ability to live, to provide, to give back and more; and that so many of us feel trapped below a glass ceiling, or living paycheck to paycheck, always slightly out of reach of financial freedom. 

But what if it’s not the external world that’s keeping us from that freedom? What if our beliefs surrounding money + abundance are keeping us stuck in the same patterns of struggle + strife? 

In this month’s episode of Why Are We Like This? Kristen and I dive into our own money stories + programming, and how we’ve come to change them over time to allow more abundance into our lives at every turn. 

As we walk deeper into 2022, I’ve been feeling called to shift the way I show up on the podcast, and in my world. Today’s episode is sharing that shift with you- and also the invitation to explore the possibility that there is NO right way to do… anything. One of the biggest expanders for me in my life has been to release the need to “get it right,” and instead follow the nudges and desires of my soul. What happens here is nothing short of miraculous, and the good news is- you couldn’t possibly get it wrong. 

In This Episode: 

• My intention for today’s episode and the shift in the podcast for 2022 [ :50 ]
• Letting go of our perfectionist beliefs [ 4:00 ]
• The thing that has saved me from seeking perfection [ 7:41 ]
• Understanding my own energetic home base [ 9:30 ]
• Riding the wave of our own creative musings [ 12:15 ] 

Soul Shifting Quotes: 

• “There is no such thing as the right way.”
• “There is nothing common or average about you.” 
• “Let the energy inform the actions. The way that I feel directly correlates to what I do.” 
• “It’s not about right or wrong; it’s about being moved from within by the sensation of your soul.” 
• “It’s impossible to be wrong at being you.” 

“Authenticity” is a word I’m hearing in all of the places and spaces these days- which is a beautiful thing to witness; but what happens when we don’t feel firm footing in what our authentic self looks like, lives like, and feels like? 

Today’s bonus episode is my exploration of this word and work- and my invitation for you to deepen your journey with what it means to be your own fully authentic self. 

You may plan and know where you are going, but how the experience will turn out is unknown, and that is the often the most beautiful part of the journey.
