Brett Manning

Brett is an artist and illustrator living in rural north central Indiana. She works in many mediums including photography, short films, watercolor, plush toy design, and candle making, but her absolute favorite, and possibly what she’s best known for, would be her ink drawings. She finds inspiration for her art in many things, such as plants and animals, patterns, textures, folklore, dreams, synchronicity, Deja vu, the supernatural, spontaneity, truth, isolation, community, and the exploration of the self… and her process for creating tends to feel more meditative and alchemical than anything, with all the repetitive inking and line work and sigil-like patterns. She also attempts to recreate the images seen within dreams, and to capture the beings and creatures who seem to want representation in our world.

Episode Summary

In this episode, we continue our interview with Brett Manning and dive into the connections between authentic being, synchronicities, altered states, sound/music, consciousness, nonduality, nature & the environment, psi phenomena, fairies, and non-human intelligence/UFOs! Yes, Brett has also had a UFO sighting! What does this all mean for us and our place in the cosmos? We also take a look at some of Brett's channeled fairy artwork and the profound meaning behind each piece and message -- taken from her book One Foot in the Green, which is currently sold out (check out her ⁠Patreon⁠ for updates!)

Episode Summary

In this episode, we introduce you to Brett Manning -- an amazing artist that entered our orbit through a synchronistic encounter with Anthony at the Frogman Festival in Loveland, Ohio, involving an entity she helped bring into our world through one of her many amazing illustrations. Brett discusses her artistic process, which sounds truly like an alchemical act of co-creation, how entities and beings from the realm of the Fae work with her to come into our reality, her encounters and shared experiences with an entity likened by some to the Celtic nature god Cernunnos, and her permeable self experiences with what she calls "The Great All" -- akin to a non-dualistic Source consciousness that transcends and obliterates the reigning physicalist paradigm and Western worldview!

Episode Summary

This is part 2 of our interview with Janis, where we dive into contact experiences involving "archetypal seed energies" and beings ranging from syncretic ancient deities to nonhuman intelligence and what they mean for us and the collective! How are these entities—some of which are often viewed dualistically as negative vs. positive—actually dancing and weaving together in the cocreative alcehmical dance that is our reality? And how does this, especially the rise of the Divine Feminine energy, fit into the UFO/UAP Disclosure discussion amid experiences such as those of whistleblower Jake Barber and experiencers like Chris Bledsoe? Join us as we examine the path toward a mass awakening of consciousness!

Episode Summary

This is part 1 of 2 of our interview with Janis, where we dive into the current transitional state of the world and humanity amid rising turmoil and systems of control. However, there is light on the horizon! The UAP/NHI phenomena and their connection to spiritual and metaphysical awakenings among their mystical experiencers – grounded in consciousness – appear to be paving the way for a new reality centered around love and a more balanced interplay between divine feminine and masculine energetic archetypes!

Have you ever questioned the boundaries of reality and consciousness? Join us, Anthony and Boutaina, on a transformative exploration into the profound mysteries of non-human intelligence (a.k.a. aliens), consciousness, UFOs (UAP) and spirituality. Kicking off with our unique personal stories, we reveal how our diverse cultural and spiritual backgrounds have shaped our views on these enigmatic topics. As we navigate through different perspectives, from a Moroccan immigrant's journey in tech and marketing to a Lebanese immigrant’s background in open-source intelligence and media narratives, we aim to bridge the gap between experiencers, scientists, and academics.

We dive deep into the essence of reality, discussing how individual experiences, institutional constructs, and societal conditioning influence our perceptions of reality. Through the lens of consciousness, we explore the interplay between mystical experiences and scientific worldviews, highlighting the challenges and insights gained from altered states. Our conversations meander through the realms of shamanistic practices, plant medicines, and the profound interconnectedness of consciousness and love.

From developing contact protocols to encountering otherworldly entities, our journey is anything but ordinary. Listen as we share transformative experiences of personal awakenings, past lives, the significance of intention, and the importance of source energy.

This first episode is an intro to us and our stories; but our format for future episodes will often comprise fascinating dialogue with guests from across science and academia to everyday experiencers, several of whom are normalizing and empowering a wider public discourse on these topics, whether they know it or not!
