The Conscious Consultant Hour with Sam Liebowitz

This week on The Conscious Consultant Hour, Sam is delighted to welcome back internationally acclaimed writer, poet, and mystical teacher Andrew Harvey.

The author of more than forty books, including Son of Man, The Hope, Love is Everything, Turn Me to Gold, and Radical Regeneration with Carolyn Baker, Andrew is also the founder of the Institute for Sacred Activism, an organization devoted to inviting concerned people to meet our global crises as inspired, effective, and practical agents of institutional and systemic change.

He returns to the show with a powerful new book, The Magdalene Revolution: The Return of the Sacred Feminine and the Birth of Radical Equality, a work that may be the boldest and most timely of his long career.

In The Magdalene Revolution, Andrew offers a radically fresh reading of Mary Magdalene, drawing on decades of scholarship in sacred texts, the Gnostic gospels, and the mystical traditions. He examines how she has been portrayed in the New Testament, sometimes splendidly and sometimes dangerously distorted, and recovers the truths revealed about her in works such as the Gospel of Mary.

Together, Sam and Andrew explore what this revolution asks of each of us in a world in profound transition. They discuss the return of the sacred feminine, the sacred marriage of feminine and masculine within every human being, and the embodied path of love and equality that the Magdalene Revolution invites us to live. They also touch on sacred activism as the natural expression of this awakened consciousness and the courage required to participate in birthing a new humanity. This episode is an invitation to step into a wider, fiercer, more tender vision of Christ consciousness, and to recognize that the healing of our world may begin with the restoration of the feminine voice that was silenced, but never lost.

This week on The Conscious Consultant Hour, Sam welcomes Rev. Lisa Barnett, visionary founder of the Akashic Knowing School of Wisdom and custodian of the 8 Galactic Lineage Akashic Access Keys.

For more than three decades, Lisa has dedicated her life to guiding individuals through deep spiritual transformation using the wisdom of the Akasa, the great library that holds every soul's history, agreements, and plan. As the acclaimed author of four bestselling books, she has helped students and clients around the world tap into a source of guidance that has been available to humanity across cultures and ages, yet often forgotten in modern life.

At the heart of Lisa's work is the conviction that each of us carries a soul path uniquely our own and that aligning with it opens the door to greater fulfillment, clarity, and abundance. Through her teachings, she illuminates the often-hidden dimensions of our lives: the soul contracts that shape our relationships, the karmic patterns that quietly influence our choices, and the past-life vows that can echo into the present in ways we rarely recognize. Her groundbreaking 5-Step Akashic Access Prayer System gives students a practical way to step into their own soul record and receive the kind of personal, divine wisdom that no outside teacher can ever fully provide.

Together, Sam and Rev. Lisa explore what it means to consult the Akashic Records as a living source of guidance rather than a mystical curiosity. They discuss how this ancient body of wisdom can support healing, decision-making, and the unwinding of patterns that no longer serve us and how restoring access to the records is, in Lisa's view, part of humanity's larger awakening in this moment. This episode is an invitation to remember that the answers we seek are not only outside of us and that within each soul lives a library written long before this life began, quietly waiting to be read.

This week on The Conscious Consultant Hour, Sam welcomes Jay Fiset, best-selling author, global speaker, mastermind mentor, and psychedelic educator, advocate, and guide.

Over the years, Jay has worked with thousands of entrepreneurs and leaders, helping them grow not only their businesses but themselves. His approach has always reached beyond conventional strategy, drawing on unconventional and deeply effective methods for unlocking clarity, creativity, and genuine transformation. Today, his work has expanded into one of the most important conversations of our time: the responsible, intentional use of psychedelics for healing, connection, and human potential.

Jay's path into this work began close to home. High school sweethearts with his wife Cory, partners in life and business for more than three decades, the two found themselves quietly leading parallel lives as kids, careers, and the loss of aging parents took their toll. Just before their twenty-fifth wedding anniversary, they were not sure their marriage would survive. A single, powerful MDMA journey became an unexpected doorway into reinvention, renewal, and the deepest love of their lives. Out of that experience, Jay and Cory founded The Connection Experience, a series of retreats supporting committed couples in using psychoactives to reignite intimacy, healing, and presence in fundamentally healthy relationships.

Together, Sam and Jay explore the myths and the magic of the psychedelic revolution unfolding around us. They discuss what these medicines can and cannot do, the cultural confusion still surrounding them, the importance of skilled guidance and integration, and the evolving legal landscape. Jay also shares stories from his own life and from the couples he and Cory have worked with, offering an honest look at the do's and don'ts of these experiences. This episode is an invitation to look beyond the hype and the fear and to consider what becomes possible when ancient medicines meet modern lives with care, intention, and an open heart.

This week on The Conscious Consultant Hour, Sam goes solo again to explore something so simple it is easily overlooked, yet so rare it can change a life: the act of truly listening.

In a world of constant noise, urgent opinions, and conversations that often feel like waiting rooms for our own next words, the experience of being deeply heard has become a quiet form of medicine. Sam opens this reflection by reading from the work of Dr. Rachel Naomi Remen, whose words on listening have touched generations of healers and seekers and whose insight that listening may be the oldest and most powerful instrument of healing sets the tone for the conversation that follows.

In this thoughtful and personal episode, Sam draws on Remen's reflections to explore what gets in the way of real listening. He looks at the noise within, the urge to respond, to advise, to fix, and to relate it back to ourselves and the noise around us, the speed of modern life that leaves little room for presence. He considers why so many people walk through their days feeling unheard and what it costs us individually and collectively when listening becomes a lost art. The points Remen raises about generous silence, about the difference between listening to reply and listening to understand, and about the way our attention itself can be a healing offering become the through-line of a deeper exploration into why this practice is both so simple and so difficult.

Sam turns toward what becomes possible when we soften enough to truly hear another and when we allow ourselves to be heard in return. He reflects on the courage listening sometimes asks of us, the discomfort of staying present when we cannot solve, and the unexpected intimacy that grows when silence is allowed to do its work. This episode is an invitation to slow down, to listen more deeply to others and to ourselves, and to remember that some of the most healing moments in any life happen not when something is said but when someone is finally, fully heard.

This week on The Conscious Consultant Hour, Sam welcomes Dr. Charles Warter, psychiatrist, author, and lifelong bridge between Western medicine and the world's great spiritual traditions. With more than five decades of clinical practice spanning psychiatry, addiction medicine, and complementary medicine, Dr. Warter has held faculty appointments at the University of Miami and the University of Hawaii Schools of Medicine, and has served as founder and president of the World Health Foundation for Development and Peace, for which he received the United Nations Messenger of Peace Award. Author of more than twenty books in eight languages, including Soul Remembers, Recovery of the Sacred, and he returns this month with a new work that has been quietly forming over a lifetime: Psychedelics and Human Potential.

Few voices are as uniquely positioned to speak to this moment in the psychedelic renaissance. Born in Chile and shaped by early studies with healers, shamans, and Kabbalists across Mexico, Peru, Egypt, India, and the Middle East, Dr. Warter brings together indigenous wisdom, Gestalt training from Esalen, molecular biology, transcultural psychiatry, and decades of work in addiction medicine. His new book draws on this rare integration to explore how psychedelics, approached with reverence and clinical wisdom, can serve not as escape but as catalysts for the fuller expression of who we are. It is a vision of human potential grounded in both science and soul.

Together, Sam and Dr. Warter explore the promise and the responsibility of this unfolding chapter in consciousness medicine. They discuss what these substances can reveal when held in ceremony and integration, the dangers of treating them as quick fixes, and the deeper invitation they offer to remember the sacred self. Dr. Warter brings the perspective of a true elder, one who has walked with world leaders and spiritual teachers alike, and who continues to remind us that healing is always, at its heart, an act of remembering. This episode is an invitation to consider what becomes possible when modern medicine, ancient wisdom, and the courage to look within meet on the same path.
