We're going through some crazy times, and many people may feel like they're going crazy. But what if what you're feeling is related to a spiritual calling? In this episode, Christa Gumede Buthelezi and I discuss:

• The signs of a spiritual calling

• Going through an awakening with a mentor Vs doing it alone

• How to integrate an awakening with everyday life

• Her work as a mentor or "spiritual journalist"

And I ask her to channel her spiritual guides "The Old People" so I can ask some potent questions for humanity.

More about the guest: Christa Gumede Buthelezi is an ordinary human with an extraordinary ability to communicate across different aspects of consciousness. As a medium and a diviner she creates a bridge between being human, all that has been and all that will be. In plain English, you might call her a coach, a mentor or a even a sangoma. In all of this, she brings light to the world in any way possible.

Born in the US, she is South African by choice and spends her days with her family in KwaZulu-Natal. She is the editor and creator for ODYSSEY, the conscious living magazine based in South Africa. Odyssey invites curiosity, connection and compassion for being human in today’s world.

Welcome good people to Stepping into the Golden Age, a podcast about the small steps each person can take to live a life more aligned with who they truly are. I'm The Transformation Diva, and after a spiritual awakening in 2024, I came to uncover certain lifestyle choices keeping humanity from living life in alignment with their soul. This podcast aims to reveal the lifestyle changes we ought to implement.

These lifestyle changes are what will eventually usher humanity into the Golden Age, enabling a period of peace, love, and joy on Earth. These two shows anchored my belief in the intrinsic feeling I had regarding the Golden Age: https://youtu.be/cLZnzouJYCw?si=Mh2zZcmCDZxb9VRw; https://youtu.be/b4G0SOVK74k?si=M7uNAEs0BvYk4dX8. The lifestyle changes we need to implement came through a variety of other means.

Season 1 will be based on the acronym N.E.W.S.T.A.R.T. (nutrition, exercise, water, sunlight, temperance, air, rest, trust in the Divine). I first cam across this concept while listening to an episode on Diary of a CEO (https://youtu.be/wQJlGHVmdrA?si=UTLasJTseXWHBMYu). Other blogs and wellness programs also talk about the physical and spiritual benefits of these practices (see: https://tnmentalwellness.com/blog/new-start; https://newstart.com/).

I believe this is a good place to start, and will set the foundation of what's yet to come. Stay tuned for episode 1, coming soon.
