159: You Are The Missing Peace with Carissa Kazyss

“We’re not here just to do what everyone else is doing. There’s some puzzle piece that we bring to the whole, that’s our gift.” – Carissa Kazyss

Society has a way of getting us to try to fit in. It’s built into our school system, it’s pervasive across all ad platforms and, subconsciously, it runs our lives. Today’s guest firmly believes that your unique self is the key – not only to your own personal happiness and satisfaction – but to every challenge that exists on the planet right now.

If you have ever felt a longing for more meaning, or wondered, ‘is this all there is?’, your soul is talking to you, and you will likely find some inspiring keys in today’s up-lifting, empowering episode. Maren & Stephanie did.

Carissa is a Caravan Guide, writer, community steward, producer, and consultant living in Nanaimo, B.C., Canada. She brings a MA in Integral Psychology and more than 15-years of training with Daniel Goodenough to the conversation.
