In this episode, CJ welcomes artist, musician, and spiritual creator Ariel Basso, whose entire life is devoted to following the breadcrumbs of Spirit. Ariel lives nomadically, led by inner guidance and a mission to create sacred, healing spaces through art, sound, and vibration. From painting symbolic language to playing ancient wind instruments like the didgeridoo, Ariel’s work becomes a living dialogue with the Divine.

He shares his transformative journey from grief and depression to a powerful spiritual awakening in his teens, which launched a “spiritual boot camp” of meditation, prayer, stretching, and journaling. That period gave birth to his lifelong vow: to create only what celebrates unity and Spirit.

Ariel discusses his show at Northwood Art & Music House, his philosophy of vibrational sound therapy, and how circles in ancient mysticism have shaped his meditative art practice. He and CJ explore themes of joy, creative flow, and listening to Creative Intelligence in the moment—whether painting, performing, or simply breathing.

Whether you're an artist, a seeker, or someone longing to reconnect with sacred expression, this conversation is an invitation to listen deeply, create bravely, and walk your own path guided by Spirit.

In this soul-stirring episode, CJMiller dives deep into the heart of originality in the creative process. Sparked by a listener’s comment that struck a nerve, “Little CJ” makes an honest appearance—offended, vulnerable, and ready to set the record straight.

CJ shares why he refuses to teach style mimicry—and how his method is rooted in helping artists discover their unique mark. Through music, mindfulness, somatic movement, spiritual asemic practices, and even back-and-forth dueling exercises, he guides students into the sacred space where true originality lives.

He also opens up about a painful past experience with a teacher who insisted that everyone paint like him—and how that moment shaped CJ’s commitment to honoring creative individuality.

This episode is a rallying cry for trusting your inner voice, not the loudest voice in the room. Whether you're an artist, seeker, or spiritual traveler, it’s a powerful reminder:

You don’t have to copy anyone to be great.
You already are.

In this inspiring episode, CJ Miller shares a deeply personal story about waiting for a sign from Spirit—and the pivotal lesson he learned about the power of setting an intention. Guided by Dr. Petra’s wisdom, CJ realized that Spirit knows our gifts, but as co-creators, we must choose and ask.

Reflecting on Matthew 7:7-8 — "Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you" — CJ explores how intention activates the creative process. He encourages listeners to claim their desires with clarity and participate fully in co-creation.

Through mindful creative practices and the art of self-discovery, CJ reveals how we are all spiritually connected—and reminds us that there are as many possibilities as stars in the sky. The episode closes with a simple yet powerful visualization to help you set your own sacred intention today.
