Searching for Goodness Podcast
Join us on our new podcast, we will be interviewing people from all sorts of life about science and spirituality. This is a documentary/podcast series about everything! Our focus shifts from spirituality to arts and sciences. We have a YouTube streaming channel and now we are exploring the Podcast to get our voices heard and get attention to matters that concerns the whole world and human race. Our goal is to focus on things that unite us and connect bridges between differences. The initial idea of this show was created a few years back by Bessy Adut. She would like to turn this into a feature film someday and travel to Antarctica to interview the researchers and scientists over there. Next goal is to continue with a documentary series like an explorer. We had many team members on this journey lately working with Armin Nasseri as a co-producer, filming and editing together as well as New Faces LA and some more other creative collaborators. Goal is to reach out to whole world.

In episode 21, as one of our all time favorites as Searching for Goodness team, we filmed an interview with Isis and Bessy sitting on top of a tree at Griffith Park!
That's been a very original idea by our creative team and the interview has been a pleasure. We talked about so many interesting topics and we haven't noticed how 54 minutes passed.
Some of our philosophical topics include but not limited to: #neardeathexperience #extraterrestrialactivity #channeling #globalwarming #climatechange of course once again #antarctica a very different take on #spirituality #nature and science #hopibrothers #om #separationisianillusion #thereisnodivisionintime #medicineandnature #onenessconcept #antarcticstations #utopia #spiritualretreat #spiritualhealing #birds #channelingenergy as well as many movie references such as the classic film #ghost
In a nutshell, Isis is channel, author and a speaker devoted for the highest good of the group of people (or individual), who are seeking guidance to support them along their human experience. Sometimes deep truths can be hard to hear but make no mistake, you as the Divine Being, are definitely brave enough. And with the right support, these powerful truths can support you in living your absolute best life!
We really enjoyed filming and editing this episode, we hope you enjoy watching it as well! :) You can reach Isis for more information on her website. Filmed by: Barry McDaniel, Edited by: Armin Nasseri, Directed, Co-produced, Co-edited by Bessy Adut.

Searching for Goodness
Listen to your heart and the hearts of others that's where you'll start finding goodness. Once Nietzsche said "Don't stare into abyss or abyss stares back at you."This is also true for goodness, the more you look into goodness the more goodness looks back at you. The more we look for light, the more we are going to be able shed the light on the truths.
