KAHA AWAKENED with Talen Barney

The process of creation never stops. Every single second, minute and hour we are designing and creating who we are and who we want to be. The problem is that most of us aren't aware of this process. We are on auto pilot, just going through the motions. This episode will help you to realize what the real purpose of life is and how we can use all circumstances and experiences to our advantage. 

This is my special BIRTHDAY EPISODE. I have failed a lot and made a lot of mistakes in my 28 years. I have also had some beautiful and sweet victories. Listen as I share a few lessons, nuggets of wisdom and pivotal beliefs that I have acquired and formed over the last 28 years of my life. 

Have you ever heard of the Roadmap of Consciousness Evolution? Well today we will go through the four stages of consciousness evolution and what that entails. When we learn how to surrender and give up control in life, we start to have different experiences. We start to become and transform into someone better and we begin to live life how it was designed to be lived. Trust me, surrender is sexy. 

Almost everything that we know about addiction is wrong. Why are some people addicts, and others are not? Why can some people stop cold turkey with whatever they are addicted to, while others seem to never recover and will continue to relapse over and over again? In fact, why are there so many different types of addictions in the world now? Not only has the number of addicts increased, but the num...

Life is not about balance, it is about alignment. To truly achieve alignment in your life within all aspects, you have to know what your Soul really wants and how to work towards that. These three questions will force you to think introspectively about what it is that you deeply desire, and how to ultimately align your body, mind and soul. 

This is the third episode of the Mindset series. This is all about taking immediate action and living live with a constant growth mindset. Listen and learn!

In this episode we dive into how to actually BUILD your growth mindset by applying some effective strategies. Remember, beliefs are choices. You get to choose what you believe, and you get to choose how you see the world and how you create your reality. It all begins with mindset. 

This is going to be another three-part series, and this time we are diving deep into MINDSET. This is probably the number one thing that holds people back because they don't even realize how disempowering their beliefs are. You adopt beliefs from early childhood which become automated programs that run your life, and then you believe that life is against you. Well, it is time to fix that. 

In this episode I dive into the process of becoming what and who you want to become, and how to not swim against the current when it comes to pursuing that. Most people these days have the process of creation completely backwards, and they are forcing and fighting great resistance. It is much easier to just 'Be'. 

This is the first time I have ever publicly talked about my divorce, the after effects, and how that eventually lead to Holistic Coaching. Don't wanna miss this one. 

What is the deeper reason to why I focus so much on self-mastery? Why do I talk so much about getting fit physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually? The answer lies in the future. 

It is one thing to find your "path". It is another thing to consistently stay on that path until you reach your desired destination. In this episode we learn how to apply highly selective criteria that will keep you accountable, but more importantly, it will hep you to stay aware and vigilant so you don't drift off your mark. By applying certain criteria, you can make sure for certain that you wil...

“Create the environment to create. The more fertile the space, the more fertile the mind. I spend most of my days in a converted shipping container surrounded by books. A womb to gestate ideas into reality. To nurture thought into action. A chalkboard to jot ideas, log dreams, track goals and sometimes just draw. Images that free my mind. Inspire new creations. A microphone to record my thoughts....

Science is proving more and more that we really are COMPLETELY in charge of how our lives turn out. We may not be able to control the circumstances around us, but we are able to control how we react to those events, and then envision the future that we do want to create. You no longer have to just take the cards that were dealt with you and go through the motions. You can really grab life by the h...

All nature and humanity is interconnected. We are all energetic beings who affect each other more than we think. What we do to ourselves, we do to others. I argue that one of the most pervasive and powerful darkness threatening humankind is that of hopelessness. It's a level of despair and darkness that is indescribable. In this episode I go through a few ways that we can all be more aware and obs...

“If we do not master ourselves, we will be a slave to ourselves.” Need I say more? In a world run by the internet and instant convenience (which I am all for), we have forgotten the true reward and power of delayed gratification; of going within, instead of relying on everything outside of us. We have seemed to forget that if we do not master ourselves, then we become the slave to everything else....

I truly believe that at the foundation of all great feats, progress and transformation is courage. I would also argue that in this incredible time in history of economic and social abundance, we have never lacked more courage. Courage, or a lack thereof, is the root cause of insecurities, mediocrity and living a life of safety and apathy as opposed to a life of adventure and bliss. Now you know wh...

Recently I undertook my latest challenge: absolutely nothing to eat for 120 hours. In this episode I dive into the details of my long term fast, the struggles and difficulties, and my overall thoughts. This was the ultimate test of commitment, tenacity and self-mastery. Listen and learn my friends. 

Life is about tradeoffs. You give up one good thing for another. And so it is if you choose to live your grand, bodacious, dreamy authentic life! Before you can actually reap those benefits, a certain price must be paid. Unfortunately, we don't talk about this enough so when people hit that phase, what I call the stretch of adaptation, they turnaround and go back. Remember this: you have to sit in...

I grew up being told that life is a test. I strongly disagree. From what I can tell so far, life is simply an experiment. It is about discovering who you are and what it is that makes your heart sing. It is about pioneering new frontiers, it is about seeing how capable and limitless your mind and body are, and it is about following your deep curiosity and your bliss. Experiments are full of trial...

This episode is an intro into season two of Conscious Rebel. It is going to be more explosive, more genuine, more vulnerable, more compassionate, and last but not least, there will be no holding back. Season two is getting real. 

Thank you to all for a beautiful first season. My final thoughts: capturing those perfect moments of happiness.

If you go back to the Greek and Roman civilizations, you will see that they produced most of the creative geniuses that went on to change the world forever. How? Why? What did they do different? Listen up to find out.

Learn how to ground yourself and find order amongst the chaos. It will make life a lot easier. I pinky promise.

Out of all the episodes so far, I HOPE YOU DOWNLOAD THIS ONE AND REPLAY IT OVER AND OVER AND OVER. I’m serious. This is important.
