The host, Guy, introduces Matt Kahn as the guest for this episode, highlighting their discussion on personal spiritual growth and the global awakening of consciousness.
Matt Kahn’s Journey and Identity
When asked how he describes his profession, Matt reflects on his personal evolution. He shares that early in his career, he would give long-winded explanations, trying to justify himself to others. Over time, he has simplified his response to being an “intuitive healer and bestselling author.” He stresses the importance of accepting oneself fully and moving past the need for validation from others.
The Role of Ego and Intimacy
Matt delves into the complexities of ego and intimacy. Matt explains that the ego seeks validation through others but often fears rejection, leading to hesitance in fully embracing one’s identity.
According to Matt, true intimacy involves owning one’s identity and choices, which can feel intimidating to the ego. He suggests that the ego is drawn to intimacy but struggles to receive it, leading to personal challenges in relationships.
Early Life and the Comfort in Discomfort
Matt recounts his upbringing, where he was exposed to emotional volatility within his family. This environment taught him to become comfortable with discomfort, which later helped him in his spiritual journey.
He recalls performing on stage from a young age, which gave him confidence in front of large audiences, a skill that would later support his work as an intuitive healer. For Matt, discomfort became familiar, while receiving and fully experiencing the goodness of life has been his primary challenge.
Global Awakening and Shifts in Consciousness
Matt describes the current state of global consciousness as a period of awakening. He likens this process to the breaking through of flowers from concrete, representing the human spirit rising despite challenges.
The Nature of Empathy and the Role of Healers
As an empath, Matt discusses the experience of feeling others’ emotions and energies. He explains that empaths are not necessarily taking on other people’s energy but rather clearing energy fields through their own. He emphasizes that healing oneself enhances one’s ability to manage empathy effectively and that becoming more aware allows an empath to serve the collective more powerfully.
The Power of Love as the Ultimate Answer
Matt highlights that love is the only answer to the existential questions humans grapple with. He suggests that beneath every question, there is a desire for love and attention.
When we learn to love the questioner within ourselves, rather than focusing solely on the content of the questions, we can transform our experience. He encourages individuals to approach their emotions with love, viewing them as aspects of the self that are seeking attention.
The Tipping Point of Global Awakening
Matt believes the world is moving toward a tipping point of collective awakening. He asserts that while societal challenges seem overwhelming, these are signs of the rapid pace of consciousness expansion. According to Matt, the more people awaken and embody love, the faster humanity will move through this transformative period.
