77: Building and Healing Conscious Relationships with Ama Castro

Welcome to Lunacy; where we discern the sacred from the insane and admit that whether we like it or not, we are all profoundly affected by the cycles of the moon.

Today on LUNACY, I interview my good friend and soul sister, Ama Santo.  Ama is a renowned Conscious Partnership Coach and Leader.  This episode heads straight into the deep end.  We begin with a discussion of how all relationships are teachers for us, by inadvertently digging up un-dealt with trauma.  Then our automatic, natural reaction is to go on the defensive, into Wolverine-Mode.  Recognizing that it takes all we have to fight against that urge.  To slow down time, and really listen to what's behind whatever "seems" to be going on in the moment.  Truly a magic trick. 

We delve into what it truly means to be a "Freedom Fighter".  There is some real talk about addiction, and a very real near-death experience.  Ama shares a jaw-dropper of a story about how she overcame the deadliest of addictions with a little help from the Man upstairs, (or the Woman upstairs, or whatever it is that you call the source of all things.  : )

Ama outlines in detail the 5 Step Process that she and her husband Santo use to get people in relationships to be fully conscious of how and why they are triggered.  Arguably, one of the most valuable processes one could want.  There's really a lot to learn here and remind oneself of.  This episode is one of those I'll listen to when I lose center in relationship. 

I get verklempt several times, naturally.  And we crack each other up several times as well.  This episodes got it all: Depth, Laughter, and Tears.  Dig it.
