89: Agapi Stassinopoulos On Speaking With Spirit And The Power Prayer

Our guest today, Agapi Stassinopoulos is here to shift the perception about the power of prayer. Prayer is something that many people in the modern world overlook. In a sea of mental health and mindfulness practices and apps, prayers might seem outdated and too connected to organized religion for some.  Through Agapi’s work with Thrive Global and her numerous books, Agapi is reintroducing us to the art and power of prayer. Agapi originally hails from Athens, and is actually sister to Arianna Huffington, from the Huffington Post. In our chat, we get into Agapi"s fascinating story that is filled with ups and downs and moments of challenge and clarity. We talk about her upbringing, her early introduction to yoga, and how her mother"s spirituality laid the foundation for her later development and finding her calling.  We also talk about her dreams of becoming an actor, and how she pivoted from this path after some huge realizations and deep epiphanies. Agapi unpacks some of the lessons and ideas from her most recent book, Speaking with Spirit, and reflects on her hopes for the world at this moment in history. So, to take part in this illuminating conversation between Light and Agapi, be sure to tune in!
