In today’s episode we have the pleasure to interview Andreas Phelps author of “The Sacred Practice of Integration”

Andreas is the principal and founder of The Collective Potential, a catalyst for change at the organizational, project team, and individual level. He has worn many hats throughout his life, being a structural engineer, forensic scientist, sustainable systems designer, researcher, human systems developer, general contractor, trainer, facilitator, socio-technical integrated systems thinker, listener, provocateur, storyteller, work therapist, scalability consultant, systems optimizer, learner, annoying question asker, and - when the pressure is right – sometimes a maker of “diamonds.” Through his work, he strives to understand as much as I can about nature (inner and outer), the relationships between elements, and creative ways to manifest our collective potential.

In this episode, you’ll learn about how Andreas got into spirituality and what it has to do with day-to-day life, how in paradox we progress, how to lead change, how you already know what you need to, the importance of transcending the limits of who you thought you were and becoming something greater, why you need practices to create presence and not fighting reality, why you should have gratitude for everything (even the bad stuff), why ego may not be the enemy, and much more!

We had a great time talking with Andreas and he is an absolute wealth of knowledge for progressing every part of your life.

We hope enjoy this incredible conversation with Andreas Phelps
