info_outlineWe need people, anger, and energy to live authentically because everything is co-created. In this episode of Authentic with Marlowe Lenard, Marlowe welcomes Leo Sablin to the podcast. After meeting in Cairo, Egypt, in February 2025 at a Robert Edward Grant's Expedition traveling up the Nile, Marlowe and Leo kept in touch, and Leo shared a kundalini breathing exercise with Marlowe.

Anger is a theme of the episode because Leo spotted something in Marlowe she didn't even know she was carrying. He unlocked her anger in the best of ways. We learn that anger is not a negative or unwanted emotion. Anger inspires children to imitate and walk. Anger that makes us want to grow, learn, and do more. Anger is an engaging fire in your life that reminds you that you are alive and want to create and can shift your consciousness.
Episode 12 of Authentic with Marlowe Lenard discusses the complexities of navigating today's world, from political turmoil, living amidst a flood of information yet being ignorant of truth, moral dilemmas, the value of authenticity, and how to acknowledge that you influence your surroundings and life.
Although life will present challenges to us, whether divorce, creative dissatisfaction, or a desire for spiritual understanding, religious practices, or the spiritual unconscious, we must acknowledge that the process of creation is not isolated. Creating life, creating an energy-led life, and creating spiritual abundance are ways that we can reinforce our interconnectedness with the world.

Marlowe and Leo discuss how storytelling is a gift and can lead Marlowe to a broader, more conscious life. Episode 12 of Authentic with Marlowe Lenard discusses aura, human conception, Human Design, and future self incarnation, and encouragement to visit the places that raise your frequency and energy, which for Marlowe are New York City and Mexico.
