S10 E35 The Lover Deep Dive |IBGR | Donna Kunde & Londina Cruz
“Your sacred space is where you can find yourself over and over again.” ― Joseph Campbell
We can transform ourselves, to the degree that we cultivate a loving acceptance of ourselves. This means forgiving ourselves simply as a matter of habit. It also means forgiving others, since what we are very often most critical of in them is a shadow projection from within ourselves. All judgment is self judgment.
What we adore outside ourselves usually carries with it the positive shadow projection of the deep wisdom of our own Souls.
There are five levels of the Lover:
Shadow - Jealousy, envy, obsessive fixation on a love object or relationship, sexual addiction, promiscutiy, obsession with sex or pornography, or (conversely) puritanism.
Call - Infatuation, seduction, yearning, falling in love (with a person, an idea, a cause, a work)
Spiral One - Following your bliss, what you love
Spiral Two - Bonding with and making commitments to whom and what you love
Spiral Three - Radical self-acceptance giving birth to the Self and connecting the personal with the transpersonal, the individual with the collective
There are three steps to this Daydream:
Using relaxed, deep breathing to enter a meditative state, allow yourself to focus on your heart, imagining a small gold, glowing light in the center of your chest in the heart area. Imagine the gold, glowing light slowly becoming larger until it is as large as your heart, then your lungs, then the whole chest area, and finally, gradually as large as your whole body. From there imagine that light filling the room and then your community, the country, the world and finally the solar system.
Then become aware of more intense, many-colored threads of light connecting you in particular to everything you love, care about or feel strongly about. These threads may link you to stars, to the night sky, to a certain landscape, to certain animals, to places and things, and of course to people in your past or present. Take your time tracing these threads until you feel yourself at the center of a web of loving connection.
When you are ready, return your consciousness from the threads to the golden light, and allow that light to shrink from the solar system to the world, from the world to your nation, from your nation to your community, from your community to the room in which you find yourself, and finally to your body, then your chest area, your lungs, and your heart.

Donna Kunde is one of IBGR's founders and started her career in radio at WNTW on it's Sales 2020 Show. In her role as EVP Supply Management she is responsible for day-to-day station operations and the quality of programming - both show topics and OnAir Talent.
She is an internationally recognized Business Coach and Trainer bringing 20+ years’ experience in military leadership. Donna has been a serial entrepreneur for the last 25 years owning a range of businesses experiencing the unique challenges solopreneurs face with small business growth.
In addition to her entrepreneurial background, Donna brings 35 years of academic and applied cognitive and behavioral science experience to the IBGR Network. Her specialty is helping organizations navigate through change, challenge and tragedy. The combination of her intensive study of the mind, plus practical applications in human potential, Donna provides a unique perspective on leadership, personal growth, sales, communication, and team building.
A high point of Donna's training career happened when she accompanied Dr. John C. Maxwell and his team on a country transformation mission. At the request of the Costa Rican government, the Maxwell team successfully trained 15,000 Round Table facilitators in three days, resulting in a 2% transformation of that nation and projected to reach another 60,000 Costa Ricans the following week. Her trademark energetic communication style and teaching skills have earned her a reputation as a highly effective speaker and respected facilitator.
Londina Cruz is an International Trainer, Executive Coach, and Keynote Speaker with the John Maxwell Team and a Strategic Coach with Anthony Robbins. Londina is a part of Global Transformation with the John Maxwell Foundation, training thousands of leaders in Paraguay and Costa Rica to help transform the values and culture of these nations.
She has spent more than 25 years studying, coaching and consulting in personal mastery and human performance techniques. These techniques include emotional and social intelligence trainings that elevate individuals, leaders and their organizations to excel well beyond current standards – offering a dynamic competitive advantage.
Londina has taken a situation that would devastate most individuals, being hit by a drunk driver, and has turned it into her life force. In this accident, Londina sustained a traumatic head injury, broken back and broken neck. The doctors gave her little hope of a normal life. She has now turned this challenge into an extraordinary life of empowering others to turn their fears into freedom and reach their potential.
Mastering her limiting beliefs and overcoming all that doctors had told her, Londina has thrived physically as well.
She has become a Triathlete (competing in a Half-Ironman and medaling in numerous other triathlons), a two-time marathon runner (Nike Women’s in San Francisco and the Marine Corps in Washington), and a cyclist.
She has released 100 lbs. by taking control of her thoughts instead of allowing thoughts to control her.
She knows what it takes to take you and your team from where you are to where you want to be.
