Welcome to the Soul’s Way podcast! This is your host Emily Anne Brant. I am a proud First Nations (Mohawk) author, speaker and mentor here to meet you at the intersection of personal development and decolonization. I truly believe that when we see ourselves and one another mind, body, emotion AND most of all soul or spirit… we can break through systematic, ancestral and generational ways of being that we came here to disrupt and rise above, and lean into the ways that heal our spirits. I know that we can do this through honest conversations, radical responsibility, and healing together in community. Through my stories and the incredible conversations with some truly amazing guests - my hope is that you leave each episode with a more open heart and that you feel emboldened in your medicine and your voice- knowing your ripple effect matters.

If you are in need of an uplifting listen today, this is it! My friend John is one of the most optimistic humans I know, but he is not afraid of vulnerability or real talk either. In this episode, we discuss John's signature "perspective maintenance" and what that means, how we can eliminate shame as we grow and change, how to practise self compassion, and John's experience being a Taiwanese/Male in a White/Female dominated industry. We talked about culture, masculine/feminine energy, and more! There's so much wisdom here, and we can't wait to hear from you once you listen. Share a screenshot or clip and tag us on Instagram @thejohncollective and @emilyannebrant.
John Chao is a radical encourager and a change maker. Using his top 3% podcast Perspective Maintenance and his perspective-shifting speaking and coaching, John's main mission is to help individuals over 45 realize that their best days are ahead of them, not behind them. He is fascinated by cross-cultural and intergenerational dynamics and is a personality assessments junkie. He specializes in creating opportunities for people to leverage what they currently think they have to offer and turn that into exponentially greater results, so they can fulfill their dreams.

Last year I joined a business mastermind and met some amazing people. One of them was Rave Reid, who is half Filipina and half white, and resonated with a lot of what I started sharing about 1) being mixed ancestry and 2) navigating the predominantly white coaching industry.
Our experience even with money and money mindset can be a whole other ball game from what is often talked about in the mainstream coaching community. We decided to hop on a call and record a conversation for you that you'll get so much out of, ESPECIALLY IF you are white, as I shared many ways that you can make your spaces safer and more supportive for us all. Rave asked me a lot of really great questions, and was willing to get a bit uncomfortable at times to do so. This is what true leadership looks like!
Once you listen, please tag Rave @rave_reid and @emilyannebrant in an Instagram story so we can thank you for tuning in! Be sure to connect with Rave and follow all of her amazing offers!

One of my all time favourite conversations, I had to share this replay with you! My friend Ashley-Ann who I met at a women's networking brunch here in Toronto asked me to come on her new talk show Beyond The Surface Talks. Ashley-Ann is a white woman who courageously and gratefully agreed to have me on to talk about decolonizing the coaching industry and how WE (including myself because I'm half white and white passing) need to do better. I shared my story and how I struggled to feel seen, held and supported once I began to embrace my Indigenous roots and all the beauty but also the pain that comes along with that. I am sharing with you all what led me into this work and how YOU can do your part in decolonizing (actively dismantling white supremacy) your own business. This is a POWERFUL conversation that we're thrilled for you to hear and please share.

It's been a long time since I shared behind the scenes access to my spiritual healing, and I needed that sacred pause. The step back. The privacy. Plus, life has been busy in all the best ways! But what hasn't been private is how boldly I've been showing up for decolonization work, and this episode is me sharing how I got here!
I'm sharing with you:
- Radical honesty in how I'm feeling about the coaching industry
- The pain of being disconnected to your own culture
- The struggle with being mixed ancestry
- How I got here doing decolonization work
- The healing that has to happen BTS so I can show up in this work
- My wildly impactful Ancestral healing journey so far
I feel like this episode OFFICIALLY marks a very exciting new beginning for us all, here at The Soul's Way. Subscribe, share and review if you're here for it!

Buckle up and get ready for a ton of JUICY truth bombs coming your way in this bravely honest conversation with Hannah Stinson! We chat what it's like as a [non-binary] person with Trinidadian ancestry as well as Norwegian, Scottish and Irish ancestry. We talk about the need to decolonize spirituality and how to honour manifestation's true roots. Did you know that SO MUCH of what is taught now in "new age" and mainstream spirituality is rooted in Hinduism? Did you know you've likely been pronouncing "chakras" incorrectly? Do you want to know how to APPRECIATE and not APPROPRIATE the beautiful religions or cultures you admire? This episode is for you.
Our guest Hannah is a Published Author, Divine Somatic Healer, Spiritual Life Coach & Yoga Teacher, helping individuals connect with their inner-child and soul selves to heal trauma and energy blockages.

Can you manifest as a Christian? As a Black person? An Indigenous or racialize person? What does "manifestation" REALLY mean?
SharRon Jamison is a life strategist, author, minister, entrepreneur, and corporate leader who is committed to helping you BE who you were born to be, and not settle for what society has taught and told you to be. SharRon has been teaching principles of love and self-empowerment for over 35 years!
In this episode, we discuss what "manifestation" as a Black, Brown, Indigenous or Person of Colour is like and even talk about manifestation and RELIGION!
We unpacked the ways in which manifestation has been colonized, like everything else, and how we can all (BIPOC & ALLIES) do our part to decolonize, heal and liberate. This conversation is absolute gold, and we thank you in advance for listening and sharing. Let us know if you're excited for part two- we have so much more to discuss and unpack!
