Episode 157: The Futility of Goals & Accomplishments

The Love Cast With Jamal podcast

Dear friends,

Like many of us, I was routinely taught that it's important to set goals in life to make sure we keep moving forward. I was told that people without goals tend to become lazy or waste their lives. "If we don't have goals, how will we 'get ahead' in life?" This was a question I heard regularly. I have come to discover that isn't true, however.

As a matter of fact, did you know that the need for goal setting and constantly accomplishing tasks in life may be an indicator that something fundamental within your life's energies is out of balance?

I have discovered a much better way to 'get ahead' in life, and goals aren't necessary. This is the subject of this episode of The Love Cast With Jamal podcast.

Episode 156: In Memory of Beatrice Ann Jivanjee (January 1941- November 2021)

This past Friday, November 19th 2021, my mother Beatrice Ann Jivanjee passed away. 

My mother was one of the most influential people in my life, and I could not be the person I am today without her contribution to my development and understanding of the nature of life.

There are four main areas of life in which my mother imparted awareness to me. Today, I feel compelled to pass this awareness on to you because they are vitally important for us all. 

I would be honored if you would allow my mother's impartation to me to continue on to you in the form of this podcast episode. May her story encourage you as you continue to shape your life today.

Episode 155: Raise The Antenna For Better Reception

Did you know that the body is the antenna specifically designed to bring the 'signal' of life into clarity? 

Did you know that the reason why many people are suffering today is specifically because they have not learned how to 'raise the antenna' of the body with enough precision to adequately 'tune' into life? 

What does your spine, your mind, and your ingestion have to do with your experience of life? Turns out, more than you may know.

Episode 151: Living For A Living Correction

In this episode of The Love Cast, I address a common misconception that many have made about the message of my book 'Living For A Living'. Many mistakenly assume that my book advocates that our purpose and passion in life will become our main source of monetary income in life. This is not what it means to 'Live For A Living'. In this episode, I talk about why our passion and purpose in life may not always be the main stream of monetary income for us.

Is your food alive or dead?

Have you considered this question? If not, chances are you are distracted with other things of lesser importance.

Episode 147: Fear Cannot Produce Devotion: Part 1- WATER!

What does devotion and water have in common? Everything!

In the scope of modern human history, we are the most technologically advanced than we have ever been. Never before has daily living been as easy as it is in this current day and age with the necessities of life literally available at the command of our finger tips. 

So, why are we suffering more than ever before?

Why is there so much drama, fear, division, and noise online and in our own lives?

Why do we need to medicate just to make it through the day?

Why is there so much sickness, substance abuse, addiction, and suicide destroying the lives of so many?

Because of a lack of devotion. In this episode of The Love Cast, we will introduce the concept of 'devotion' and we will talk about water. Yes, water. Water is vitally important if we are going to live a life of devotion free of suffering.

Episode 146: Why Did Sidecar Doughnuts Thrive & Grow During The Pandemic of 2020? An Interview With SideCar Doughnuts Founder & President Sumter Pendegrast

Did you know that the service and retail industry, particularly in California, was one of the most decimated sectors of business in the United States due to the severe and extended lockdowns and restrictions placed on small businesses in California?

Did you also know that Sidecar Doughnuts, a rapidly growing and innovative service based company in Southern California, thrived and grew in 2020 despite those conditions?

In this episode of The Love Cast With Jamal, I had a wide ranging interview with Sidecar Doughnuts Founder & President Sumter Pendegrast about his life, his spiritual deconstruction, and his career as an entrepreneur. Success leaves clues, and I guarantee you there will be nuggets of gold for you in this conversation.

Episode 145: Why Jesus Disappointed So Many People

Did you know that for many people in Jesus' day, his message was pretty lame and unconvincing? 

Did you know that his message of internal empowerment seemed to invalidate the powerlessness and victim identity that many had adopted for their lives?

Jesus' refusal to scapegoat the powerful political leaders of his day for the suffering of the people, and his embrace of the 'ordinary' abundance of nature as a metaphor for the 'kingdom' that the people were longing for, was too un-dramatic for the masses.

Episode 144: Truth vs. Belief

Do you know the difference between truth and belief?

Did Jesus teach people to have beliefs, or how to recognize the nature of truth in everyday life?

Life has taught me to recognize that truth and belief are not the same thing. Beliefs close the mind, but truth opens the mind. The difference between truth and belief is much more than just semantics, rather, knowing the distinction between truth and belief will have implications of how you interact with life itself.

Episode 143: Why Taking A Stand For Nothing Actually Promotes Justice & Health

Did you know that being 'For' or 'Against' anything promotes perpetual resistance? Did you know that anything we resist will continue to persist? So, what is the solution to any and all problems in this world?

Hint: It involves taking a stand for nothing.

Before you reject what I am saying, I extend a special invitation to you to listen to this episode with curiosity and awareness so you can see the essence of what I am communicating in this episode...

Episode 142: Why Dr. Vanderloo Is Saying No To The New Drug...

If someone showed up at your home suddenly, in the middle of the night, with the demand that they be allowed to come into your home so they can protect you, would you easily and casually open the door without doing some investigative research on who the person actually is? Probably not. So, why is this same logic being used to persuade us to take the rapidly produced new drug? 

In this episode of The Love Cast With Jamal, I have an open discussion with Dr. Richard Vanderloo about why he has made the conscious decision not to take the new drug. Give this episode a careful listen HERE…

Episode 140: Finding Peace By Falling In Love With Conflict: A Conversation With Transformational Coach AJ Amyx

What if the very thing you have been resisting, avoiding, fearful of, and are in conflict with, is actually the key to your peace?  

In this episode of The Love Cast, I conduct an epic conversation with transformational coach AJ Amyx about why falling in love with the conflict you've been resisting could actually be the key to peace and power in your life.  We cover a lot of subjects in this episode, but the theme of this conversation is about surrendering to the experience we may be trying to avoid, including embracing conflict, as a path to sustainable peace.  You'll want to listen to this one very carefully.

Episode 139: Five Signs That You Are Under The Influence - Part 5

The reason past injustices keep repeating for us, both personally and collectively, is because the past remains our primary reference point. Every time we react to past injustice using shame and blame, we are actually bringing the past energy of injustice into the present. To end injustice, powerlessness, and perpetual victimhood, (both personally and collectively), we need a reference point from the future, not the past. When we visualize and have a dream of holistic justice, and hold that as our new reference point, we bring the energetic future we all desire into the present which then creates our future.

Episode 138: Five Signs That You Are Under The Influence- Part 4

Did you know that the ego needs to be aware of and focused on problems to survive?

This also applies toward health. When we are operating under the influence of divine source energy, however, our focus shifts away from problems and illness, and toward feelings of gratitude for our health and abundance.  In this episode of The Love Cast, I share a story of how this subtle shift in awareness helped cure someone of a terminal disease.
