Episode 20: Tesla's Current--The Mind of a Visionary

Nikola Tesla was more than an inventor — he was a visionary who believed the Universe spoke in energy, frequency, and vibration. In this episode, we explore Tesla’s groundbreaking work with magnetism and alternating current, his astonishing ability to “see” inventions fully formed before building them, and the spiritual insights that guided his creativity. 📥 Download your free companion journal here [https://drive.google.com/file/d/15kpmjxh7CHmpd2nVT1Kwkj59e9uZPFLA/view?usp=drive_link]! 🔗 Links I talk about in the show: The Oatmeal: Tesla vs. Edison [https://theoatmeal.com/comics/tesla] Tesla Universe: The Miracle Mind of Nikola Tesla [https://teslauniverse.com/nikola-tesla/articles/miracle-mind-nikola-tesla] Historic Mysteries: The Norway Spiral [https://www.historicmysteries.com/science/mystery-spiral/4640/] Napolean Hill: Think and Grow Rich Earl Nightingale: The Strangest Secret [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yYbAoJ_701M] Dan Miller: 48Days.com [https://www.48days.com/]

Episode 19: The Pull of the Invisible

Magnetism is more than a force—it’s a language of attraction, alignment, and invisible influence. In this episode, we explore what magnetism really is, how it shapes the physical world, and how it can serve as a metaphor for the inner pull we all experience. Tune in for a journey through physics, self-reflection, and the unseen currents that shape our lives. Includes: * A quick explanation of magnetic fields and the Earth’s magnetic shield * Thoughts on spiritual alignment, energetic pull, and emotional repulsion * A journal prompt to help you reflect on what’s quietly guiding you right now Listen + download your free magnetism journal page here [https://drive.google.com/file/d/1SV-MDt-MOPxxmC1d72052lF60tbpdyiB/view?usp=sharing]! #ScienceAndSoul #TheInterestedReader #Magnetism

Episode 18: The Nature of Light – Particle, Wave, and Metaphor

Light is one of the most mysterious and powerful forces in the Universe — and in our lives. In this episode, we explore the dual nature of light in physics: how it acts as both a particle and a wave, defying simple definition. Then we shift into the metaphorical and spiritual realm — asking what light represents in our inner world, how we shine, and what it means to reflect. 💡 Could light be a mirror for your own nature — something radiant, reflective, and full of paradox? ✨ Featuring: * A simple explanation of light’s duality in quantum physics * Spiritual insights on the symbolism of light across traditions * A journal prompt to guide self-reflection and inner clarity 📝 Reflection Prompt: Where are you being asked to shine more brightly in your life? 🎧 Subscribe for more science-meets-spirit episodes, and don’t forget to check out the companion blog post at TheInterestedReader.com.
