Welcome to Episode 33 of the Evolve Podcast. I'm your host, Sasha Andrianova, and today we dive deep into the realms of the soul, spirit, and the art of presence. We're joined by the charismatic and insightful Mel Carbuccia—mentor, coach, healer, ceremony facilitator, and a beacon of conscious wellness.
In this episode, we explore the crossroads of personal commitment and well-being as Mel shares her contemplations about her involvement in the flourish and rust beta program and the balance of pursuing future engagements. We'll unravel the threads of success, the pressures that accompany it, and how to reframe our fears of failure into a journey towards alignment and joy.
From the trenches of entrepreneurship to the serene spaces of spiritual calling, Mel opens up about her personal pivot from running a juice company to becoming a guiding light for others through business consulting and wellness practices. She generously provides insights into her approach, Flourish and Rest, and why sometimes, less truly is more.
We'll also touch on the significance of ceremonies and traditions, discussing the delicate care necessary when facilitating experiences with powerful medicines like ayahuasca, and the value of community and integration within such profound moments.
Mel's journey isn't just a testament to personal growth; it's a map for finding humanity in everyday interactions. She shares the simple, yet powerful acts that can bring us closer to each other in our daily lives.
And there's a dash of the magical as well—references to beloved tales like "Tangled" and "Frozen Two" remind us of the timeless lessons hidden within our favorite stories.
Prepare for an honest conversation that celebrates bravery, the importance of being present in every moment, and honoring the spirit within and beyond us. It's an episode filled with heartfelt revelations and a reminder to trust the path we're on.
So settle in, take a deep breath, and let yourself be present for this soul-stirring episode of the Evolve Podcast with Mel Carbuccia.
