Aired Wednesday, 22 August 2018, 8:00 PM ETJohn E. Fetzer – The Quest for the New AgeMy personal life quest and the theme of Destination Unlimited is to find the crossroads of science and spirituality. This is an age old quest going back to the philosopher-scientists of ancient Greece and other civilizations in antiquity. A revisioning of this quest began in the late 19th and early 20th century. The 20th century’s New Age, as it is called, was thought to have been birthed in California and other progressive thinking communities. What most are not aware of is that it actually was the Midwest that was the first cradle of advanced spiritual expansion and that the father of this quest was a successful media mogul and venerated owner of a baseball team.John E. Fetzer, born in 1901, was a radio pioneer who built a communications empire and was the sole owner of the Detroit Tigers 1961 to 1983. Behind the scenes, he was a seeker who believed that happiness, positivity and peace on earth could be found through a path

Aired Wednesday, 8 August 2018, 8:00 PM ETYvonne Tally – Breaking Up with BusyThe Greek Philosopher Socrates wrote, “Beware the barrenness of a busy life.” Considering this was written in the rather less than hectic period around 425 BC, the busy life of today must be totally barren! The word barren, usually applied to land, means unproductive, unfruitful and a place of stunted growth. Is this a true description of your busy life, especially if you are a woman? Are you one of the estimated 55 million women in today’s world who juggle your career, family and relationship, leaving you feeling like that barren land?My guest this week on Destination Unlimited, Yvonne Tally, knows that feeling well. As a successful career woman, it was Yvonne’s own struggles with life balance that landed her in the ER and ultimately fueled her curiosity to develop methods and techniques to live a more sane and balanced life.Yvonne Tally has been a healthy lifestyle coach for nearly twenty years.

Aired Wednesday, 1 August 2018, 8:00 PM ETDr. Irene Blinston – Cracking the Angels CodeIn virtually every religion, there are references to beings who are charged with protecting, healing and influencing humanity. In the Abrahamic and Zoroastrian religions, these beings are known as angels. By definition, these angels are messengers and in biblical times, brought messages to spiritual leaders and those who would be charged with leading humanity in a more positive direction.Are angels still communicating with us today? Who are they reaching out to and why? What message do they have that we all need to listen to and really hear?My guest this week on Destination Unlimited, Dr. Irene Blinston, has experienced contact with angels and received some life changing messages.

Aired Wednesday, 25 July 2018, 8:00 PM ETKatherine Jegede – Infinite PossibilityThere emerged in the late 19th and early 20th centuries a movement known as “New Thought.” One of the early proponents of New Thought, James Allen, said in his 1903 classic, As a Man Thinketh,“Mind is the Master power that molds and makes, And Man is Mind, and evermore he takes The tool of Thought, and, shaping what he wills, Brings forth a thousand joys, a thousand ills: — He thinks in secret, and it comes to pass: Environment is but his looking-glass.”Can our thoughts, our imaginations, transmute and mold our reality in the way that alchemists strived to turn lead into gold? Are there practical teachings and exercises that will show us that imagination is the creative force of all that is?My guest this week on Destination Unlimited, Katherine Jegede, found the answers to these questions in the “mind as creator” philosophy of Neville Goddard. Katherine Jegede is a British television presenter and author. She has worked with the B

Aired Wednesday, 18 July 2018, 8:00 PM ETSarah Anne Shockley – The Pain CompanionGrowing up in the fifties and sixties, my mother was a great source of practical wisdom. Once I developed a toothache over a holiday weekend. The dentist was unavailable and I was having difficulty processing the pain. In her wisdom, my mother said, “Relax. The pain will fade in a few hours and you will be able to manage until the dentist returns.” She was right and I was fortunate. When it comes to physical pain, especially chronic pain, there are many who are less fortunate.According to the American Academy of Pain Medicine, 100 million Americans suffer chronic pain. Compare that with the 25.8 million who are dealing with diabetes and 16.3 million experiencing heart disease. The estimated cost of health care and lost wages to pain treatment is 800 billion dollars. Add to that the tragedy of those who become addicted to pain medications and the outlook is quite grim.What if there was another way to look at chronic pain and in do

Aired Wednesday, 11 July 2018, 8:00 PM ETDena Merriam – My Journey Through TimeAstrophysicist, author and host of Cosmos, and skeptic Carl Sagan once asked the Dali Lama what he would do if reincarnation was disproved by science. The Dali Lama, with his great wisdom and equally great sense of humor responded, “If science can disprove reincarnation, Tibetan Buddhism would abandon reincarnation… but it’s going to be mighty hard to disprove reincarnation.” What if we do come back, lifetime after lifetime? Would we learn from each existence and bring that wisdom back with us? Would it make us more loving, compassionate and better stewards of this world that we have been entrusted with?My guest this week on Destination Unlimited, Dena Merriam, experienced events in her life that awakened memories of previous lifetimes. Dena Merriam is a managing partner and vice-chairman at Finn Partners. Her areas of responsibility include Finn’s work in cultural marketing, creative services, corporate responsibility and in work

Aired Wednesday, 4 July 2018, 8:00 PM ETRick Hanson – ResilientAlmost every faith on earth has a version of “The Golden Rule”. In essence, it instructs us “to do unto others as you would have them do unto you.” In our hectic and challenging world today, most people practice a variation…”I’ll do unto you and owe myself one.” Why is it so easy to extend love, compassion and caring to others and not do the same for ourselves? What events in our lives programmed our brains to react this way and is there a way to reprogram them to extend to ourselves the same loving kindness we extend to others and know that we are worthy to receive it?My guest this week on Destination Unlimited, Rick Hanson, says there is a way back to self-love and self-compassion. Rick is a psychologist, a senior fellow of UC Berkeley’s Greater Good Science Center and a New York Times best-selling author.

Are you addicted to your cell phone, social media, shopping, food, sex, alcohol, drugs or even to a person?

Aired Wednesday, 13 June 2018, 8:00 PM ETShira Adler – The ABC’s of CBDThink about your health and in particular, any health challenges. Think about the costs associated with treating those challenges. Now think about challenges that western or allopathic medicine has few or less than desirable treatments for. Chronic pain treatment has sadly led to staggering numbers of people addicted to opioids. Treatments for trauma, PTSD, anxiety, depression and neurologic disorders are available but at a high cost and often with detrimental side effects. In their wisdom and experience, our ancestors turned to nature and her pharmacopeia of natural remedies. One of these remedies was cannabis. Yes, that is pot, marijuana, hemp…many names for plants that have grown naturally and were here long before humanity. Yet propaganda, misinformation, misinformed narcotic classifications and perhaps even the fear of these substances cutting into big pharma profits resulted in them being outlawed and relegated to black market sales.

Aired Wednesday, 30 May 2018, 8:00 PM ETPhilip Goldberg – The Life of YoganandaThe word guru is used frequently in modern vernacular to imply an expert or master in a field. We hear about financial gurus, tech gurus and fashion gurus. The word guru comes from Sanskrit and translates as “spiritual teacher” and literally, a dispeller of darkness. When we think of modern gurus, perhaps Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, Satya Sai Baba and Swami Satchidananda come to mind, but the first modern “superstar guru” was Yogananda. Ninety-seven years after his arrival in the United States and 65 years after his transition, Paramahansa Yogananda remains the best known and most beloved of all the Indian spiritual teachers who came to the west. This is because of the durability of his teachings and the institutions he created and inspired, including more than 600 centers worldwide, and his landmark memoir, Autobiography of a Yogi. The book has sold millions of copies since its publication in 1946, but there are huge gaps in the story

Aired Wednesday, 16 May 2018, 8:00 PM ETLinda and Charlie Bloom – That Which Doesn’t Kill UsYou meet someone, you fall in love and that deep and abiding sense of “this is the one for me” leads you to the alter. After the honeymoon, life ensues along with all of the ups and downs that everyone faces. At some point the challenges may seem unbearable; the communication with your partner breaks down and the once powerful feelings of love that brought you together seem to be slipping away. Can your relationship be saved? Is it worth saving? What path do you need to follow to answer these emotionally charged and potentially life changing questions?My guests this week on Destination Unlimited, psychotherapist and relationship counselors Linda and Charlie Bloom, faced these questions and much more in their own relationship.

Aired Wednesday, 9 May 2018, 8:00 PM ETStefania Magidson – Searching for the White MagicianIt has been said by philosophers and seers that we are “spiritual beings having a human experience.” What does that mean? If it is, in fact, true, what is our purpose and why are we here? Does it mean that within each of us is profound and timeless knowledge, the potential for doing great good and the manifestation of what is foundational to every faith and religion, loving and caring for one another?My guest this week on Destination Unlimited, Stefania Magidson, has lived this path. Stefania was born in Romania and immigrated with her family to the United States in 1983. She received a BS in Health Education and a Master’s in Applied Spiritual Psychology.

Aired Wednesday, 2 May 2018, 8:00 PM ETKiera Fogg – Crystal GridworkWhen I was seven years old in 1960, I built my first crystal radio. Made up of a galena crystal, a thin wire called a “cat’s whisker”, a coil of copper wire and a single ear piece, I was able to hear transmissions from Chicago, Canada, Tennessee and other “far- away” places. For me at seven, anyplace outside of New York was far away. That galena crystal was my magic carpet, opening my imagination and mind. My love affair with crystals amped up in my mid 30’s when my path reopened to the subtle energy that surrounds us. What is the secret of crystals and if one crystal can change your life, what about an array of crystals?My guest this week on Destination Unlimited, Kiera Fogg, says that arrays of crystals called grids can be used for health and wellness, abundance and prosperity, protection, love or simply for inspiration.Kiera is a writer and speaker on modern wellness and spirituality, a certified Reiki practitioner and an entrepreneur.

Aired Wednesday, 18 April 2018, 8:00 PM ETDiana Butler Bass – Grateful: The Transformative Power of Giving ThanksAs a boy growing up in the fifties and sixties, my family stressed the importance of gratitude. My siblings and I were taught to be truly grateful for everything in our lives. My father took ill when we were very young and we did not have an easy life, but our gratitude for what we did have diminished any sense of lack or want. This same gratitude was shared by almost everyone around us.In today’s stress filled and divided world, gratitude seems to be put aside and in some instances, forgotten. How important is it for each of us to look at our lives and feel and express genuine gratitude, both personally and as citizens of our country.My guest this week on Destination Unlimited, cultural observer and theologian Diana Butler Bass says that “gratitude is central to both our personal and political lives” and “it may be the single most important spiritual practice we can engage in times of turmoil and

Aired Wednesday, 28 March 2018, 8:00 PM ETRobert Kopecky – How to Get to Heaven (Without Really Dying)Most people believe that you must die to get to heaven, but those who have suffered near-death experiences tell a different tale; our quest for happiness and peace can be found while we’re alive. Although we might feel lost at times, our internal, authentic selves truly know why we’re here. Living through difficulties is part of growing into our authentic selves. The secret is in not allowing life to live you, but in knowing what drives you and choosing to live life on your own terms.My guest this week on Destination Unlimited, award winning illustrator, art director and animator Robert Kopecky, knows this well.
