    Have you ever struggled with a bad mood? Ever felt like you’re in a pit of despair, and wanted to change it?

    If you had to choose between being joyful every moment of every day, or being at peace with what’s arising, what would you choose?

  • Speaking from Silence Episode Episode 19: Saying yes when you mean no
    May 27 2026

    Do you avoid saying ‘no’? Are you hiding behind ‘yes,’ but you’d rather say ‘no’?

    A false ‘yes’ often conceals an unexamined emotional pattern. When half-hearted affirmation shows up, it creates a limitation on yourself. It is an expression of ego.

    What would you have to put down to tell the truth?

    Today we invite you to examine your invisible reasons for giving a false yes. Then, we invite you to be wholehearted and honest instead.

  • Speaking from Silence Episode Episode 18: The Trap of Freedom
    May 13 2026

    What’s the difference between knowing about awakening, and being awake?How much do we need to know about freedom, to be truly free?

    We have many words for spiritual concepts, such as peace, enlightenment, or freedom. It’s tempting to think about these ideas as a way to deepen in ourselves.

    However, when are speaking about being awake, any concept is a trap. Being awake is an experience without words, bigger than thought or definition.

    So how can you truly discern when you’re trapped in an idea of freedom, versus when you are actually free? How can we transcend all concepts? Spoiler: it’s simpler than you think.

    Today we dive into the core belief “I am bad,” and face it directly.

  • Speaking from Silence Episode 15: When being a victim serves awakening
    Apr 1 2026

    Do you ever find yourself upset about being a victim?

    Today Jonas exposes how he has been taking comfort in his victim story. In exposing this curious indulgence, he sees through the story and realizes the wider experience of freedom.

    It is possible to move on from being a victim, and even to use it as a reflection of awakening.

    Are you unconsciously taking comfort in suffering? Is “being a victim” a story that distracts you from a difficult feeling?

    What could happen if you woke up from that, and finally saw through it?

  • Speaking from Silence Episode 14: Dealing with the loss of awakening
    Mar 18 2026

    Have you had an experience of deep realization, and somehow lost contact with it? This conversation is for you.

    It can feel like a rollercoaster: First, there’s an experience of deep, peaceful truth, and then time passes and it seems to disappear. There might be a sense of loss, failure, or wanting to get something back. We call this ‘deflation,’ and it is a wonderful teacher.

    Where did realization go? How can you get it back?

    When we learn to recognize the movement of ego trying to take ownership of direct realization, we can discern enough to stop doing that. This awareness of ego is a pathway for true integration and continued awakening.

    Direct contact with the truth is always here, and requires only your quiet attention. Listen in to hear how it works.

  • Speaking from Silence Episode 13: The healing of no effort
    Mar 4 2026

    How is it possible to lead a surrendered life? What does “rest” even mean?

    Maeve speaks through an unwanted body experience to share a transmission of surrender.

    Are you trying to heal something? What if this conversation could hold a healing balm just right for you?

    When we don’t touch the urge to “do” something, we can truly meet what is needed. We can care for the body and have space to care, or do what’s needed.
