  • Fear of Being Seen
    2025/09/16

    In this episode of Unfolding Us, I’m speaking directly to the ones who know they have something important to share but have been hiding in the shadows. If that’s you, then this conversation is for you.

    I talk about the fear and power of being seen. I break down why the people who carry true wisdom often stay quiet, while those with shallow experience speak the loudest. This episode is about calling in the ones with real experience, lived truth, and earned insight to step forward and claim their space. I talk about the rise of false experts, the danger of borrowed narratives, and the beauty of what happens when your voice aligns with your truth.

    I also share a bit about my own journey—why I stayed behind the scenes for so long, and what it took for me to speak publicly more often.

    If you’ve ever felt a calling but questioned your right to answer it, this episode is your nudge.

    I’ll guide you through one simple practice to help you break the silence.

    Because the world doesn’t just need noise. It needs you.

  • Truth Seeking Is a Needed Skill: Don't Trust Media Blindly
    2025/09/09

    There’s a reason people say the truth will set you free, but what happens when the truth is buried under misinformation, media bias, and fear-based narratives?

    In this episode of Unfolding Us, I break down what it means to be a real truth seeker in a world designed to distract you. Media has become one of the most powerful tools of manipulation, and yet most people don’t pause to question what they’re consuming or why. If you want to lead, if you want to live with integrity, you must learn to ask better questions.

    Here’s what I’m sharing in this episode:

    • How media distorts narratives and rewrites reality
    • Why truth seeking is one of the most underrated leadership skills
    • The damage of fake news and how it impacts our nervous system and spirit
    • How to start asking deeper questions about what you’re being shown
    • What it means to be a responsible consumer and an intentional leader

    This isn’t about paranoia. It’s about clarity. Because if you want to contribute to a more just and humane world, you have to get clear about what you believe and where that belief comes from.

  • It Might Feel Messy, But You’re Not Lost
    2025/09/02

    Right now, so many of us are shedding layers we never thought we would. Our old identities, job titles, relationships and ways of living that no longer fit are falling away and in that shedding, it can feel like we’re floating without a solid place to land.

    In this episode of Unfolding Us, I share why what feels like a breakdown might actually be your breakthrough. This isn’t about having it all figured out. It’s about being honest about where you are, listening to your gut, and choosing what’s true over what’s easy.

    Inside this reflection:

    • Why transformation never follows a straight line
    • How to know if you’re still in alignment even when things feel chaotic
    • What to do when your old life starts falling away
    • Why listening to yourself before the world is more important than ever
    • How to sit in the in-between without rushing the process

    You are not behind. You are not broken. You are in the middle of something sacred. Let this episode remind you that you don’t have to force a new version of yourself just because the old one is fading.

    Thank you for being here with me. If this resonated with you, subscribe to Unfolding Us and visit my site at https://phoenixjackson.myflodesk.com/... to join the newsletter and grab a free book!. I have a lot more to share, and we are unfolding together.

  • The Lies We Tell Ourselves
    2025/08/26

    In this episode of Unfolding Us, I’m talking about a truth that most people avoid. We lie to ourselves. Sometimes to feel safe. Sometimes to survive. But those self-lies can cost us our peace, our relationships, and our sense of purpose.

    I’ve done it. I’ve said “I’m fine” when I wasn’t. I’ve stayed too long. I’ve kept quiet when I should have spoken up. And I’ve learned that lying to yourself might be human, but it’s also the first step away from your true self.

    Here’s what I’m sharing in this conversation:

    • How self-deception becomes a coping mechanism
    • What it really costs to pretend
    • How to check in with your spirit when something feels off
    • Why naming the lie gives you your power back
    • The shift that happens when you stop performing and start being honest

    This isn’t about being perfect. It’s about being clear. You don’t owe the world your truth, but you do owe it to yourself. If you’re tired of carrying the weight of pretending, this is your invitation to put it down.

    Thank you for being here. I appreciate every listener and every share. Subscribe if you haven’t and share this with someone you know who needs to hear this.

    Let’s unfold together.

  • Poor With A Lot — Redefining Wealth and Breaking Cycles
    2025/08/22

    What does it really mean to grow up poor but surrounded by stuff? In this episode, I unpack the difference between appearing wealthy and actually being well. This is a conversation about performative wealth, generational cycles, and the kind of legacy we are creating for our children.

    I share personal stories from my own upbringing and reflect on the emotional moment when a child confronted the gap between looking good and living well. We explore how materialism has become a false god that leaves both children and adults feeling empty.

    What we cover in this episode:

    • The illusion of wealth in underserved communities
    • Why children need more books and fewer brands
    • The emotional and spiritual starvation that lives beneath surface-level abundance
    • What it means to redefine wealth and legacy
    • Intentional parenting and the difference it can make

    This conversation is not about shame. It is about choosing awareness and investing in what truly matters—education, experiences, peace, and personal development.

  • Someone Else’s Pain Has Nothing to Do With You
    2025/07/22

    You are not responsible for carrying pain that isn’t yours.

    In this episode of Unfolding Us, I share a raw truth: so much of the hurt we carry was never meant for us. It was projected, transferred, or dumped onto us by people who never faced their own wounds.

    ✨ What you’ll hear:

    A personal story about betrayal, humiliation, and the moment Phoenix realized: “This isn’t about me.”

    How unhealed pain gets passed from person to person — in relationships, families, communities, and entire systems

    Examples of how pain is transferred: from cops to Black men, from politicians to the people, from parents to children

    Why your role is not to carry someone else’s grief, rage, or shame — but to break the cycle

    The world will try to hand you its unhealed wounds.
    You get to say: “Not mine.”

    This is your reminder to stay rooted in who you are — and to protect the next generation by refusing to pass down what was never meant for you in the first place.

  • How Meditation Saved My Life (A Story of Returning to Truth)
    2025/07/15

    When the world tried to pull me away from myself, meditation brought me home.

    In this deeply personal episode of Unfolding Us, I share on how leaving the church at 18 opened a path to stillness, self-observation, and spiritual balance that saved my life.

    ✨ What you’ll hear:

    Why Spirit told me to leave what felt familiar — and how that cracked me open

    How exploring different spiritual systems led me to Buddhism and the transformative power of meditation

    The truth about carrying anger, trauma, and brokenness — and learning to sit with it, not run from it

    An invitation to return to the early truths that once held you — the ones still waiting for you to come home

    This is a story about more than just sitting still.
    It’s about the power of observing yourself with honesty.
    It’s about learning to quiet the ego, release the need to always be seen or right, and find the peace that no one else can give you.

    ✨ If you’ve ever wondered how to reclaim your balance and remember what your spirit knew before the world taught you otherwise — this one’s for you.

  • Are we being dumbed down? Aimless Consumption Hurts!
    2025/07/08

    We live in a world designed to keep us endlessly consuming — but not always expanding.

    In this episode of Unfolding Us, I break down how mindless consumption is actually dumbing us down, narrowing our perception, and training us to scroll away from the truths that could set us free.

    ✨ What you’ll hear:

    How we’ve been conditioned to consume comfort instead of challenge

    Why we tend to scroll away from messages that stretch us

    How conscious consumption can shift your perspective, your worldview, and your growth

    Practical ways to feed your mind and spirit with what builds you — not what numbs you

    We’re not here to be passive consumers.
    We’re here to become active students of the world, willing to question, unlearn, and sit with ideas that make us uncomfortable — because that’s where the expansion lives.

    Your mind is sacred territory. Protect what you feed it.
