When Les Jensen experienced a powerful emotional breakthrough, it completely changed his understanding of himself and the world around him.

That experience led him from a successful career as a broadcast television engineer into a decades-long exploration of consciousness, emotional healing, personal empowerment, and authentic human potential.

In this fascinating conversation with Steve Rother, Les shares how suppressed emotions can quietly shape our decisions, why anger isn’t the enemy we’ve been taught to believe it is, and how many of us become trapped in what he calls “corridors of comfort” that keep us repeating the same patterns.

Together, Steve and Les explore the relationship between consciousness and energy, the importance of listening to the heart instead of relying exclusively on the analytical mind, and why humanity may be approaching a profound evolutionary shift.

It’s an inspiring and deeply practical conversation about what it means to become fully human.

As an Emmy Award-winning journalist, PBS host, producer, and author, she has explored some of the most important questions of our time through media, public conversation, and personal inquiry. But somewhere along the way, her path opened into something more intimate and spiritual.

Steve Rother and Emmanuel Dagher explore a perspective that feels both simple and profound—that nothing within us is here by accident, and nothing needs to be pushed away in order for us to become whole.

Emmanuel’s story begins in the midst of war, where early experiences of chaos and loss were met with an equally powerful sense of connection and awareness. That duality—light and dark existing side by side—became the foundation for his work.

What emerges in this conversation is not a philosophy of fixing, but of allowing. Allowing space. Allowing presence. Allowing the body and consciousness to do what they are naturally designed to do.

It’s a gentle but powerful reminder that healing is not about becoming something else but returning to what has always been there.

In this conversation, Judith Corvin-Blackburn invites us into that deeper layer of transformation. Drawing from decades of work in transpersonal psychology and shamanic practice, she speaks to the quiet but powerful process of reclaiming our soul nature.

It’s not about striving to become something new. It’s about remembering, reconnecting, and allowing that awareness to guide how we live, choose, and show up in the world.

There’s a grounded wisdom here—one that doesn’t bypass the human experience, but honors it as part of a much larger unfolding.

In this episode of The Back Story, Steve Rother sits down with mystic, author, and sacred activist Andrew Harvey to explore one of the most compelling and controversial re-examinations of spiritual history — the story of Mary Magdalene.

For centuries, her role has been minimized, misunderstood, or reframed through a narrow lens. Yet Andrew Harvey offers a very different perspective — one that places her at the heart of a transformative spiritual movement grounded in love, partnership, and embodied wisdom.

As the conversation unfolds, it becomes clear that this is not only about revisiting the past. It is about recognizing how the stories we inherit shape the way we see ourselves, our relationships, and even our connection to the sacred.

There is a quiet but powerful thread running through this dialogue — the restoration of balance. The return of a voice that carries both strength and compassion. A reminder that spiritual truth is not static, but something that continues to reveal itself as we grow in awareness.

What emerges is not a simple rewriting of history, but an invitation. An opening to consider what might shift — personally and collectively — if we allow a fuller story to come into view.

Because sometimes, what has been left out is exactly what we are ready to hear.

In this heartfelt conversation with Steve Rother, Fer shares the deeper story behind his work as a spiritual teacher, author, and modern shaman. His path did not unfold through certainty, but through lived experience — through questioning identity, seeking meaning, and learning to trust inner guidance. Over time, what once appeared as struggle revealed itself as transformation, leading him toward alignment, purpose, and conscious awareness.

Fer speaks openly about the process of becoming. Rather than striving to create a new self, he discovered that true transformation often comes through remembering — uncovering the authentic self beneath layers of expectation, conditioning, and doubt. This unfolding awareness shaped not only his personal journey but also the way he now supports others in their own path of healing, growth, and self-realization.

At its heart, this conversation explores consciousness, identity, and the human journey toward wholeness. It is a reminder that life is not random, that every experience carries meaning, and that awareness has the power to transform how we see ourselves and the world around us.

If something in these words resonates with you, allow it to be an invitation — a moment to pause, listen inwardly, and reconnect with your own path of becoming. Your journey, your awareness, and your transformation are unfolding in their own perfect time.

In this reflective episode of The Back Story with Steve Rother, Steve sits with renowned playwright, philosopher, and spiritual teacher Peter Muller — a man whose near-death experience profoundly changed his life direction and awakened a deeper understanding of human purpose, spiritual growth, and the nature of destiny. What followed was a lifetime devoted to exploring the patterns of consciousness, the meaning of love, and the subtle forces shaping the human journey.

Speaking with the calm wisdom of long experience, Peter shares the idea that we arrive in this world with a kind of life script — a framework of experiences, lessons, and opportunities for awakening — yet we are never without choice. At any moment, we can shift direction, transform our path, and consciously participate in our own evolution.

The conversation moves gently through themes of spiritual awakening, creativity, relationships, and the deeper intelligence behind life’s unfolding. From his work with the I Ching and archetypal life patterns to reflections on love, consciousness, and human transformation, Peter offers insight that bridges philosophy, spirituality, and lived experience.

At its heart, this episode is a reminder that life is not simply something that happens to us — it is something we co-create through awareness, choice, and the willingness to awaken to our deeper nature.

In this intimate and illuminating Back Story episode, Steve sits down with Sarah McCrum, whose groundbreaking book Love Money, Money Loves You emerged through a channeled dialogue with the energy of money itself.
