🍴The Yummy AppeTEASER for the WBTC Podcast! 🥗

As I'm in the process of uploading the first few podcast episodes, I thought I'd give you a taste of what’s to come. The post below, created from the transcript of the We Be The Change podcast trailer, sets the stage for upcoming conversations. 👀🎧✨ Enjoy digging in🍴 and let me know what you think! 🥸  

🌺 Aloha, and welcome to this introductory trailer for We Be the Change: Conversations with Conscious Evolutionaries! I’m your host, Colleen "Weaver Bird" Akiko 🪶 speaking to you from the high desert mountains 🌄 of Northwestern Nevada.

This podcast is here to help you feel inspired 🌟, connected 🤝, and equipped 🛠️ to fully embody your purpose. Thank you for tuning in! 🙏🏽

💡 About the Podcast Title

In case you're wondering about the name We Be the Change? 🤔 well, it just feels right—sparkly ✨, celebratory 🎉, and rooted in Gandhi’s wisdom: “Be the change you wish to see in the world.” 🌍

I love the collective energy of We Be the Change—it’s like saying, "Hey, We ARE the change! Hooray!" 🙌

Each guest on this podcast personifies what it means to “be the change.” They share stories of transformation 🔥, passion ❤️, and purpose 🌱—stories that are deeply human and incredibly practical.

So, I’m glad you’re here—welcome aboard!⛵

⏳ Living in the Present: A Sacred Experience

Gandhi also said, “The future depends on what we do in the present.” 🕰️✨

We've all witnessed moments when someone was so immersed in their purpose that it felt sacred. 🕯

Like when I first witnessed my shy friend on water skis jubilantly dancing across the waves. 🌊

Or my quiet, introverted father 🎻, a concert violinist, who would set the stage on fire 🔥 while he poured out his soul through his violin strings. Really powerful! 👏🏼

Do you know someone like this? Maybe yourself? Someone who radiates their passion so powerfully that it melts away any heaviness in the room?💡

Each podcast guest speaks from this place—from the heart 💜, sharing the deep wisdom that ignites transformation. 🔥

💡 Evolutionaries: Lighting the Way

I call these guests Evolutionaries—they are torches 🗽 that light-up others with their wisdom and love. They share earthy, real-life stories that rekindle something within us. 🌱❤️‍🔥

These stories come from life’s trenches—and some are pretty rough. 💔 But they hold hidden treasures 💎 that can guide us through today’s crises and help us move toward healing.

I think of the many tired, anxious souls who keep showing up, holding things together, even at the expense of their own comfort. Maybe you are one of these earth angels. 😇

🌌 As Rumi said, “The darker the night, the brighter the stars.” 🌠

Each guest on We Be the Change is a power star of compassion, lifting others up, reminding them of their brightness. They bring people together in surprising 🎭, creative 🎨, and deeply meaningful ways.

🎶 What if John Lennon was right--what if "Love IS the answer"? 💖

🧪 What if love is the only antidote to the fear, division, and toxicity we see and feel around us? I truly believe it is--real love. Boundless love. Transformative love. 💞✨

🌲 A Message from Grandmother Tree 🌲

About 15 years ago, by the Big Wood River 🌊 in Idaho, I was emotionally exhausted, unhappy 😞 and overwhelmed. I felt called to sit with an ancient tree.

💭 She whispered a clear message into my heart:

✨ “I am love with roots. You are love with legs.” ✨

That message became a touchstone for me.

Every guest on We Be the Change reminds us that we are love with legs, walking in a confused and chaotic world, capable of making a real difference. 🚶‍♀️💞
