Hello, I am Jennifer Urezzio, a Super Power Expert and founder of Soul Language. This is SuperPowers of the Soul. I am with Brad Gudim today. The topic today is tools for conscious systems. Welcome Brad, how are you?

I am wonderful and a half.

Yeah. What do you consider the superpower of your soul?

I’ve got a gift of connecting people.

I think I’ve got a gift of connecting people and seeing how certain people need to … They can’t really see why they need to meet, but I just sense that they do.

I like that. I like it a lot. What do you consider your secret purpose?

I think it’s the connection. I think I’m here to connect people. Part of my internet mission is to move the online chatter back into real-life activity because I think a lot of this online stuff it’s so much more powerful when actually people get to meet, and shake hands, and hug and look eye to eye. I think that’s part of it. My background is in the events industry, so a lot of what I’m doing is getting people that are online because a lot of us are.

We’ve got our phones in our hand while we’re waiting to get our meals at the store and things like that, and they’re not talking to anybody. What I’m looking to do is get them to communicate again, and start communing and getting people to meet people face-to-face in person.

I think that’s really important. I think that soul to soul, person to person connection. We’re not alone here, we’re not on an island, and I think that personal one-on-one time is key. I was out getting a meal and I watched this mother with this small child, and the mother is watching this video on her phone and this small child is just there, and I wanted to scream at her like, “Are you kidding! Why aren’t you talking to your kid? Hello.” How is the kid going to grow up and learn how to talk to people, or how is that going to develop? What’s going to happen to her sense of self and voice. I’m all for your mission.

There’s something about these screens. You see infants they grab these tablets, and they just get pulled into them for some reason. I think it’s that yearning to connect with what’s on the other side. If you can kind of push the screen to the side and get back to nature where there is no WiFi, then you can connect person to person. Again, I just think it’s deeper. Don’t get me wrong. This is still wonderful. I’m talking with you, and I think you’re on the East Coast and I’m in the central time zone. We’re talking, but it’s not the same as being in the same place.

Exactly. Even when we have that face-to-face time really establishing a connection and really being present, I think that’s key. What has been a common theme that your soul has shared with you over your journey?

I started out as a performing magician.

Again, it is the connection of people. My background is in the events industry. I started out as a performing magician and-

Hence the word magic in your title.

Yes, the MagicBrad brand, yes. Instead of trying to market it traditionally the way a lot of people do it, I created a trade show that connected event planners with event suppliers. Of course, my agenda was to connect with the event planners, so I could do my gigs. I created this platform for planners and suppliers to meet, connect and do business.

I’m still doing that kind of thing, like I’ve got this project I’m working on in Costa Rica, and it’s an event center for yoga retreats. We’re doing a photography retreat, and we’ll be doing other types of events that get people together. I’m just providing the platform for it, and then the people come there, and they make their soul connections for whatever reason they’re supposed to connect.

Beautiful. As you form that connection, what do you personally look in for when you connect with people? What does your soul crave in the terms of connection?

I crave attention. It’s not that I’m needy for attention, but I have this desire for acknowledgment. I don’t need a trophy, or an award or anything like that. I don’t even need a pat on the back. I just have this feeling that people need to know that I did this. As an example, when I was doing my events back early internet, I had brought a web designer, and I got him this gig doing something for conventions and visitors bureau that then sprouted off into all sorts of websites. You’re designing for different speakers and people in the tourism industry and stuff.

It hurt me that she would not recognize that the reason it all had happened was because I made this initial connection. I think that’s what my soul craves is just recognition. I was the one that planted that spark and made that little connection.

That’s really important. We giggle about that, but understanding what your needs are on a deep soul level is really important. If anyone doesn’t know their needs out there, you email me and I will send you a needs sheet, so you can figure it out. Because whether you know it or not, you’re trying to get those needs met. let’s do it consciously rather than unconsciously. It’s really important to understand what that soul craving is. I love the fact Brad that you know that and you acknowledge that. I think that’s really important.

When I do soul languages on the renegade portion of the site, there’s a chart that always needs to be updated. It hasn’t been updated in years. It shows how we’re all connected via our soul, and people can pull up that chart and go, “Okay, I am connected here because of blu, blu, blu, blu.” I think that’s really important. I love that, that’s a need for you.

I noticed we’d have parties at our house, and I would just sense that this person is supposed to connect with this person. The way that I would do it is like these people are milling through the house, and croton the dining room is to go through the kitchen. If they go through the kitchen, they would not connect with this person that’s in the dining room, so I would stand in the doorway knowing that they had to go around the other way.

Sure enough they would bump into that person because they’re sort of magnetically charged and attracted to each other. They don’t even know why, but they end up connecting with each other. That’s, I believe, one of my superpowers, if you will, or my gifts just to be able to see that and just know that there’s something that needs to connect. I think that is on the soul level because I have no idea why. I just sense that this person needs to connect with this person.

I love that. Before we do our break here, how do people get in touch with? How do they connect with you and really know more about you, and what you offer and kind of get to play with you?

That’s a really good question, and I have a really different approach to it. I don’t have any direct way that they can do that by like a website domain. I do have magicbrad.com. I got  magicbrad.tv. I got all sorts of domains, but the best way to connect with me is Google the keyword “MagicBrad” one word. Just Google it and you’ll find me.

I love that. Everyone just hold on and we’re going to be talking with Brad about tools for conscious systems when we get back.
