Left Turn

This episode of the Left Turn Podcast features Tereza Dobrotová, a multilingual Access Consciousness facilitator. Tereza shared how she followed her passion for languages from a young age, even when it went against expectations from her teachers and family. She moved to Switzerland at 18 with just 50 euros, driven by love and a desire for adventure. Tereza has since lived in multiple countries, exploring different cultures and languages. As a translator for Access Consciousness classes, Tereza finds great joy in being a "bridge" between the English content and participants in other languages. She shared how speaking different languages allows her to tap into different energetic aspects of herself. Tereza also discussed her love for facilitating Access classes, especially those focused on the "language of energy" like the Symphony of Possibilities. She encouraged listeners to approach learning and communication with a sense of play and fun, rather than rigid rules.

In this Left Turn Podcast, Marilyn and Tiffani Brennan had an empowering conversation about Tiffani's journey of overcoming addiction through greater awareness and consciousness. Tiffani shared how she was heavily involved in drugs and alcohol in her younger years, until she realized it was destroying her life and body. She made the choice to remove herself from her social circles and move to a new city. However, this created an even stronger desire for change. Tiffani discovered Access Consciousness tools, which she credits with helping dissolve the neural pathways that kept her trapped in addiction. The tools allowed her to access greater heights of awareness and expansion without the need for artificial highs. Tiffani also discussed the challenges of choosing a path of greater consciousness, as it often goes against societal expectations. She emphasized the importance of being willing to be "strange" and make continuous left turns, even when it's uncomfortable. Powerful experiences at places like Uluru have further deepened Tiffani's connection to awareness and the space/peace that is available to us all. Her story illustrates how choosing consciousness, surrounding yourself with supportive people, and being willing to change can help overcome even the most entrenched addictions Resources: *  More with Tiffani Brennan - https://www.accessconsciousness.com/en/public-profiles/tiffani-brennan/ *  More with Marilyn Bradford - https://www.marilynbradford.com/  Tiffani Brennan works with Access Consciousness Classes & Events worldwide, and is an Access Consciousness Certified Facilitator.  She has been involved with Access Consciousness and spreading the seeds of consciousness since the early 2000's, through classes, private sessions, and tailored programs.  Mentioned during the Podcast * Access Consciousness - http://www.accessconsciousness.com/ * El Lugar Resort in Costa Rica - https://ellugar.com/ * Lazy Double D Ranch in Texas - https://lazydoubledranch.com/

In this episode, we're joined by Dr. Sara Alfaro, a medical doctor in El Salvador who has taken some fascinating left turns in her career. After training in traditional medicine, Dr. Alfaro discovered alternative therapies like acupuncture, homeopathy, and ozone therapy. This led to pushback from the medical community, but she persisted in integrating these holistic approaches. Dr. Alfaro also shares about an ambitious project she and her family embarked on during the pandemic - planting 25,000 mahogany trees on a 20-acre farm they call "Paquilistli," which means "the place of happiness" in the ancient Nahuatl language of Central America. She describes the joyful process of nurturing these trees and how the forest has become a healing sanctuary. We also discuss Dr. Alfaro's shift in mindset, from trying to "fix" patients to simply offering options and allowing them to choose their own path. This has been incredibly freeing for her, both professionally and personally.
