The 7 Crossings

What is The 7 Crossings?

Long before “change management” had a name, alchemists knew something essential: they weren’t just gradually transmuting the 7 metals in the privacy of their lab, they were also changing their own state of mind one unveiling at a time. The gold they sought was as much internal as it was real. And the true philosopher's stone was the hidden self they uncovered along the way. So what if the most profound transformations the world needs didn’t begin in management books, ready‑made methods, or grand narratives about what we should do? What if they began there: in those precise moments when something wavers. When what once worked no longer does. When a certainty or a veil needs to fall, gently or brutally, and something else starts trying to be born in its place. The 7 Crossings is a podcast of deep conversations devoted to life passages, inner shifts that ultimately create new ways of living, working, and leading. In each episode, a person shares a crossing: a professional rupture, a radical questioning, a career transition, a transformation in their relationship to power, to meaning, to leadership. People who have built something, a career, a reputation, an expertise, and who, at a certain point, felt that the model no longer held and something totally new needed to emerge. This is less a place for lessons and advice and more a place for least resistance and exploration. Because the real question is not how to succeed when change hits. The real question is: How do we finally become alive when everything is shaking? Each episode follows the same backbone: a threshold, a crossing, a transformation, an integration. At the intersection of conscious leadership, the search for meaning, ancient traditions, and contemporary realities, The 7 Crossings explores what emerges when the old world is no longer sufficient. What is born in the cracks, what transmutes, and what empowerment is passed on. Hosted on Ausha. See ausha.co/privacy-policy for more information.
