Hosted by Scott Britton, Evolution FM sits at the intersection of consciousness, inner transformation, and using business as a spiritual path. This show is for entrepreneurs, creators, and leaders who are experiencing an entrepreneur awakening and are drawn to deeper questions about meaning, purpose, identity, and how to live and lead with integrity in a rapidly evolving world.

Each episode explores consciousness expansion, inner work for entrepreneurs, and the unfolding of human potential through honest conversations with wisdom teachers, mystics, investors, and founders. Evolution FM goes beyond surface level conversations to examine the inner transformation required to sustain outer success, healthy relationships, and aligned leadership.

Listeners are invited into conversations about:
- Consciousness and expanded awareness
- Inner work as a foundation for leadership and creation
- Founder spirituality and spiritual growth in business
- Business as a spiritual path and how to practice conscious leadership
- Human evolution, identity shifts, and awakening experiences
- Integrating ancient wisdom with modern technology and entrepreneurship
- Living, loving, and leading from an open heart

Popular guests include Joe Hudson, Art of Accomplishment; Diana Chapman founder of Conscious Leadership Group; Martha Beck, bestselling author and renowned life coach; Dr. Srikumar Rao, TED speaker and author; and Gay and Katie Hendricks, bestselling authors and teachers.

Evolution FM recognizes that many entrepreneurs reach a point where achievement alone no longer is enough. Success without alignment feels hollow and becomes unsustainable. This podcast meets listeners at this inflection point, offering perspective, insights, and lived experience for those navigating consciousness expansion alongside ambition.

Rather than teaching formulas or tactics, Evolution FM creates space for reflection, inquiry, and inner transformation. It speaks to founders and leaders who are committed to evolving not just their companies, but their awareness, relationships, and way of being in the world.

If you are curious about consciousness, committed to inner work, and exploring your own entrepreneur awakening, Evolution FM offers thoughtful conversations to support your journey into expanded awareness and a deeper expression of your human potential.]]></itunes:summary><image><url>https://artwork.captivate.fm/3acbad87-5445-47fc-9cc5-7752ba5f0e47/evolutionfmcover-copy.png</url><title>Evolution FM: Consciousness, Human Potential, &amp; Inner Work for Entrepreneurs</title><link><![CDATA[https://scottbritton.substack.com/]]></link></image><itunes:image href="https://artwork.captivate.fm/3acbad87-5445-47fc-9cc5-7752ba5f0e47/evolutionfmcover-copy.png"/><itunes:owner><itunes:name>Scott Britton</itunes:name></itunes:owner><itunes:author>Scott Britton</itunes:author><description>Evolution FM is a consciousness and human potential podcast exploring inner work, expanded awareness, and consciousness expansion for founders, entrepreneurs, and modern leaders who sense there is more to life than external success.

A strategist by training with corporate experience. Marc discovered the power of strategic questioning after experiencing a complete personal transformation triggered by a single question during his darkest moment when he had to shut down a business.

He has studied and practiced meditation since 1965, giving him six decades of direct experience with consciousness expansion and spiritual evolution. In 1983, he was empowered by masters of an emerging lineage to bring forth one of the most comprehensive integral meditation systems ever developed. He has authored nineteen books, presented over 300 webinars, and mapped what he calls the entire Great Continuum of Consciousness, identifying 73 distinct spiritual paths active in human awareness.</p><p>In this episode, we explore how meditation, when practiced with the right techniques and under the guidance of an empowered lineage, can compress what might normally take 55 years of spiritual growth into a remarkably short window of time. Through the Mudrashram system of integral meditation, practitioners learn transformational methods that unfold the soul at its cutting edge, moving it forward along the Continuum of Consciousness in a balanced way. George explains how most seekers unknowingly practice techniques not aligned with where their soul actually sits. He shares how the attunement process, combined with mantra and Raja Yoga practices, can catalyze what he calls Initiation, a quantum leap in soul unfoldment that would otherwise require lifetimes of inner work.

We discuss how astrology maps the soul's deepest desires, why suppressing parts of ourselves attracts the very situations that force them to surface, and how Ricky is using AI to make spiritual evolution and self realization accessible to everyone through his app Lila.</p><p><br></p><p><strong><em>Who This Episode Is For:</em></strong></p><p><br></p><ol><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>Anyone fascinated by the intersection of athletics, human potential, and consciousness</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>People curious about astrology as a serious tool for personal transformation</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>Listeners on a healing journey seeking deeper purpose and meaning in everyday life</li></ol><br/><p><br></p><p><strong><em>What You'll Learn:</em></strong></p><p><br></p><ol><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>How football trained Ricky for the consciousness path and why coaching in sports translates to inner work</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>What evolutionary astrology is and how it maps our deep unconscious desires</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>Why suppressing yourself builds pressure that attracts external triggers and how conscious expression changes everything</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>How the Lila app and AI are making expanded awareness through astrology accessible to all</li></ol><br/><p><br></p><p><strong>For full show notes: </strong><a href="https://podcast.scottbritton.me/p/nfl-star-ricky-williams-on-discovering" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://podcast.scottbritton.me/p/nfl-star-ricky-williams-on-discovering</a></p><p><br></p><p><strong><em>Go Deeper:</em></strong></p><p><br></p><p>If this conversation resonated, you can check out:</p><p><br></p><p>• <a href="https://podcast.scottbritton.me/subscribe" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Join my email list</a> for ongoing insights on consciousness, spirituality, using business as a spiritual path and human potential.</p><p>• My book <a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0FTDKPT14" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Conscious Accomplishment</a>: How to Use Personal Achievement for Spiritual Growth</p><p>• My company <a href="https://www.conscioustalent.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Conscious Talent</a> - where business leaders and companies who value both inner work and professional excellence connect.</p><p><br></p><p><strong><em>Chapters</em></strong></p><p>(00:00) From the NFL to a Consciousness Journey</p><p>(21:06) Knowing Yourself and Living in Alignment</p><p>(29:02) Desire, Suppression, and Conscious Expression</p><p>(38:52) Lila, AI, and the Future of Astrology</p>]]></content:encoded><link><![CDATA[https://scottbritton.substack.com/]]></link><guid isPermaLink="false">128de051-b1d2-43b7-ad97-9ff3f498dc11</guid><itunes:image href="https://artwork.captivate.fm/b655de80-a5e2-40fa-976e-c366ae5bbbcc/efm-headshots-1-20250627-1dtmb8ps0x.png"/><pubDate>Thu, 26 Jun 2025 11:00:00 -0500</pubDate><enclosure url="https://episodes.captivate.fm/episode/43e1a75b-e244-4656-a6e0-ec4fd5122cd0.mp3" length="132831354" type="audio/mpeg"/><itunes:duration>55:24</itunes:duration><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>This Scalar Energy Technology Repairs DNA and Unlocks Higher Consciousness in Just Hours (Dr. Sandra Rose Michael, EESystem)</title><itunes:title>This Scalar Energy Technology Repairs DNA and Unlocks Higher Consciousness in Just Hours (Dr. Sandra Rose Michael, EESystem)</itunes:title><description><![CDATA[<p><a href="https://www.eesystem.com/meet-the-team" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Dr. Sandra Rose Michael</a> is a pioneer in applied integrative biophysics who has spent more than four decades teaching holistic medicine and developing scalar energy technology to activate the body's innate healing intelligence.

He also shares his bold vision that psychedelic inspired therapies and sound based technologies could become what he calls the "antibiotics for mental illness."</p><p><br></p><p><strong><em>Who This Episode Is For:</em></strong></p><p><br></p><ol><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>Anyone curious about how sound and vibration support somatic healing and nervous system regulation</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>Entrepreneurs and high performers seeking tools to manage stress and access flow states</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>People on a healing journey exploring alternatives to conventional mental health treatment</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>Listeners drawn to the convergence of consciousness science, energy medicine, and embodiment</li></ol><br/><p><br></p><p><strong><em>What You'll Learn:</em></strong></p><p><br></p><ol><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>How sound wave vibrations activate the vagus nerve and signal safety to the brain</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>How ancient healing practices connect to modern frequency healing research</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>What it means for your heart, lungs, and brain to reach resonance and flow states</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>Why Dr. Rabin believes we are on the verge of curing mental illness through psychedelic inspired approaches</li></ol><br/><p><br></p><p><strong>For full show notes</strong>: <a href="https://podcast.scottbritton.me/p/can-vibration-cure-anxiety-and-mental" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://podcast.scottbritton.me/p/can-vibration-cure-anxiety-and-mental</a></p><p><br></p><p><strong><em>Go Deeper:</em></strong></p><p><br></p><p>If this conversation resonated, you can check out:</p><p><br></p><p>• <a href="https://podcast.scottbritton.me/subscribe" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Join my email list</a> for ongoing insights on consciousness, spirituality, using business as a spiritual path and human potential.</p><p>• My book <a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0FTDKPT14" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Conscious Accomplishment</a>: How to Use Personal Achievement for Spiritual Growth</p><p>• My company <a href="https://www.conscioustalent.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Conscious Talent</a> - where business leaders and companies who value both inner work and professional excellence connect.</p><p><br></p><p><strong><em>Chapters</em></strong></p><p>(00:00) Why Ancient Cultures Understood Vibrational Healing</p><p>(10:30) How Apollo Neuro Teaches the Body to Feel Safe</p><p>(22:07) Sound, Harmony, and Resonance in the Body</p><p>(36:37) Personalized Frequency Healing and Apollo AI (44:28) The Mental Health Paradigm Shift</p><p>(58:56) Sovereignty, Safety, and Speaking Your Voice</p>]]></content:encoded><link><![CDATA[https://scottbritton.substack.com/]]></link><guid isPermaLink="false">b97ddb26-e5ee-4ffc-9bda-5ce981fd622f</guid><itunes:image href="https://artwork.captivate.fm/0ceaf472-bd7d-405e-bc81-c817676bacb8/efm-headshots-3-20250605-s56el7x6cc.png"/><pubDate>Thu, 05 Jun 2025 11:00:00 -0500</pubDate><enclosure url="https://episodes.captivate.fm/episode/6c8597c6-2c84-4a8d-9007-747733caf634.mp3" length="159273786" type="audio/mpeg"/><itunes:duration>01:06:25</itunes:duration><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>What Consciousness Science Reveals About the Secret Stages of Spiritual Growth (Terri O&apos;Fallon)</title><itunes:title>What Consciousness Science Reveals About the Secret Stages of Spiritual Growth (Terri O&apos;Fallon)</itunes:title><description><![CDATA[<p><a href="https://www.terriofallon.com/about/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Terri O'Fallon </a>is a developmental researcher, theorist, and guardian of the <a href="https://www.stagesinternational.com/about" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Stages International Model Of Human Development</a>., a framework that maps human consciousness across four developmental tiers.

She also shares her own story of inner transformation and how aligning with her design reshaped her entire career.</p><p><br></p><p><strong><em>Who This Episode Is For:</em></strong></p><p><br></p><ol><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>Entrepreneurs and founders who feel burned out from forcing a version of success that doesn't feel aligned</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>Leaders who want to understand how they are naturally wired to make decisions and guide teams</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>Anyone curious about Human Design as a practical tool for personal evolution and self realization</li></ol><br/><p><br></p><p><strong><em>What You'll Learn:</em></strong></p><p><br></p><ol><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>What Human Design is and how it differs from personality assessments like Myers Briggs and the Enneagram</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>The five Human Design types and what each one reveals about your energy, decision making, and leadership style</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>Why the strategy of letting opportunities come to you can be more effective than chasing outcomes</li></ol><br/><p><br></p><p><strong>For full show notes</strong>: <a href="https://podcast.scottbritton.me/p/human-design-is-shockingly-helpful" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://podcast.scottbritton.me/p/human-design-is-shockingly-helpful</a></p><p><br></p><p><strong><em>Go Deeper:</em></strong></p><p><br></p><p>If this conversation resonated, you can check out:</p><p><br></p><p>• <a href="https://podcast.scottbritton.me/subscribe" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Join my email list</a> for ongoing insights on consciousness, spirituality, using business as a spiritual path and human potential.</p><p>• My book <a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0FTDKPT14" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Conscious Accomplishment</a>: How to Use Personal Achievement for Spiritual Growth</p><p>• My company <a href="https://www.conscioustalent.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Conscious Talent</a> - where business leaders and companies who value both inner work and professional excellence connect.</p><p><br></p><p><strong><em>Chapters</em></strong></p><p>(00:00) What Is Human Design and Where Did It Come From</p><p>(08:10) The Five Types and Your Energetic Blueprint</p><p>(16:20) How Entrepreneurs Can Align with Their Design</p><p>(42:53) Where to Go Deeper with Human Design</p>]]></content:encoded><link><![CDATA[https://scottbritton.substack.com/]]></link><guid isPermaLink="false">a6c890f5-003d-4722-bf11-3b8bd8caad80</guid><itunes:image href="https://artwork.captivate.fm/c606ba03-c730-4053-a29c-b3d36dace54a/efm-headshots-1-20250515-g21mtcawe4.png"/><pubDate>Thu, 15 May 2025 11:00:00 -0500</pubDate><enclosure url="https://episodes.captivate.fm/episode/f58d3010-0b87-4bf5-876e-5b4ec5366d88.mp3" length="114079107" type="audio/mpeg"/><itunes:duration>47:32</itunes:duration><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>Unlock The Quantum Power Of Your Heart For Exponential Success (Arnaud Saint-Paul)</title><itunes:title>Unlock The Quantum Power Of Your Heart For Exponential Success (Arnaud Saint-Paul)</itunes:title><description><![CDATA[<p><a href="https://arnaudsaintpaul.com/about-arnaud-saint-paul/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Arnaud Saint-Paul</a> is the founder of the <a href="https://tapuat.com/about/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Heart Leadership Community</a> and dedicated to helping leaders transform their inner world to create tangible external impact.

Through financing studies and creating a media that educates and amplifies the potentiality of understanding this substance, he is helping us answer these questions.</p><p>John's story is a fascinating one that in some ways mirrors <a href="https://scottbritton.substack.com/p/from-becoming-a-somebody-to-becoming?utm_source=%2Finbox&amp;utm_medium=reader2" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">my own</a>.

(Joe Allen)</itunes:title><description><![CDATA[<p>Let me start off by saying, I have zero interest in participating in what many call the transhuman movement. Specifically, implanting some type of technology into my body in order to alter or enhance the way in which I experience the world.</p><p>That being said, I do think it's important to understand what is going on. This is clearly going to be a thing in our lifetimes that will vastly impact culture and society and I'd rather be informed. A few weeks ago someone had recommended Singularity Weekly to me and I was startled to see how far along we are in this field.</p><p>I wanted to have Joe Allen the author of singularity weekly and Steven Bannon's War Room transhuman expert.</p><p>The most interesting thing that emerged from the conversation was the realization that transhumanism is very much a religion. There is a group of people that are attempting to transcend their current condition and achieve salvation. In these higher states, they also strive to achieve greater abilities of unity and access to higher intelligence.</p><p>Gee. Sounds kind of like most wisdom traditions. I guess the main difference is the mechanism they believe will usher into this change is technology. Joe called this worship of technology as our savior an inversion of spirituality. I tend to agree, but this new understanding certainly helped me better understand what is more fundamentally driving the leaders of these movements.</p><p>I can't say that my opinion has really shifted. I am increasingly getting excited about living a more analog life. Having less technology dominates my experience and generally being more connected to nature. This probably means I will have to move from my urban existence at some point, but I am okay with that. I increasingly think living in Urban areas with high degrees of invisible environmental toxins make it harder to be healthier than it needs to be. And I care more about myself and family being healthy than nice dinners with friends and access to luxury experiences. I think we will start to see this appeal to more and more urban professionals in the next decade.
