The Jim Fortin Podcast

Start Your Transformation Now

In this powerful first installment of a two-part mini-series, Jim Fortin explores one of the deepest causes of human suffering: the illusion of identity. He explains how most people unknowingly live from a limited, ego-based sense of self—and how this illusion quietly shapes fear, lack, struggle, and disconnection. Jim begins guiding listeners toward a more profound understanding of who they truly are beyond the human identity they’ve learned to accept as “self.”

Jim goes deeper into what it means to be consciousness having a human experience, rather than a human trying to become spiritual. He breaks down how identifying with the 3D ego creates separation from inner power, and why most problems don’t need to be solved—but seen through. Listeners are invited to shift from operating inside the illusion to recognizing the awareness behind it, where true transformation begins.

This episode sets the foundation for a radical identity shift that changes how life, challenges, and possibilities are experienced. If you’ve ever felt stuck despite doing “all the right things,” this conversation opens the doorway to a completely different way of living. 

What You’ll Discover in This Episode: 

(02:10) Why most suffering comes from misunderstanding identity Jim explains why people struggle not because life is hard, but because they don’t truly know who they are. 

(05:48) The hidden trap of the 3D ego identity Learn how identifying with race, roles, history, and labels creates the illusion of separation and fuels fear and lack. 

(11:41) What it really means to be consciousness first Jim introduces the identity “flip” that shifts life from effort and struggle to ease and alignment. 

(17:00) Why ego problems don’t get solved—they dissolve Discover why trying to fix life from the ego is like rearranging furniture on the Titanic. 

(23:08) How prayer and begging reinforce separation Jim explains how traditional prayer often reinforces the illusion instead of reconnecting us to our inherent power. 

(27:11) The one realization that ends the ‘beast of burden’ life Understand why identifying as consciousness first restores power, peace, and clarity. 

Listen, apply, and enjoy! 

Transformational Takeaway 

The greatest illusion you can break is the belief that you are the human identity you’ve learned to be. When you stop trying to fix your life from the ego and begin recognizing yourself as consciousness having a human experience, struggle loses its grip. Problems no longer define you—and often dissolve entirely. True transformation begins not with effort, but with awareness. Shift your identity, and your life follows.

How often have you asked yourself this question: “What is my life’s purpose?” If you’re like almost all people, you’ve asked yourself this question over and over and you still haven’t found your answer.

In this episode I dig deeper and take a look at your life’s purpose from a much higher perspective. For most people, they have never thought in this way. They’ve never expanded the level from which they see and experience their lives.

In this episode I talk about:[5:38] “Where you’re living from”[9:59] Looking at your life in a bigger context[10:45] Why your purpose is internal and not external[13:28] Why your external purpose is not your real purpose[24:54] And, how working from your highest potential will help you connect with your real purpose

Also, I talk about meditation and why this is so important.

The easiest way to work from higher purpose is to quiet your mind and connect at the deepest levels of who you are.

Listen, apply, and enjoy!

Your TRUE purpose is alignment

In this profound and far-reaching conversation, Jim Fortin sits down with Gary Zukav, author of The Seat of the Soul, to explore what he calls an unprecedented shift in human consciousness. Gary explains that humanity is moving beyond a five-sensory, fear-based way of living into a multisensory awareness rooted in love, responsibility, and authentic power. This transformation, he says, is not a future possibility—it is happening now, within each individual.

The discussion dives deeply into what authentic power truly means: the alignment of personality with soul. Gary contrasts external power—control, manipulation, and fear—with authentic power, which comes from emotional awareness and conscious choice. He offers practical guidance on how to recognize frightened versus loving parts of the personality and how everyday emotional experiences are actually gateways to spiritual growth and personal evolution.

If you’ve ever wondered how inner change can affect the world, how to move beyond fear, or how to live with greater meaning and integrity during uncertain times, this episode offers both clarity and direction.

What You’ll Discover in This Episode: 

(02:58) The New Human Consciousness Why humanity is undergoing a rapid, historic shift from five-sensory awareness to multisensory perception. 

(04:20) External Power vs. Authentic Power How control and manipulation differ from soul-aligned power—and why the old model no longer works. 

(13:57) Love and Fear as Choice Points How every moment presents a decision between fear-based reactions and love-based responses. 

(18:59) Emotional Awareness as a Tool How physical sensations in the body reveal frightened or loving parts of your personality. 

(41:59) Temptation and Conscious Choice Why temptation is a spiritual gift and how it serves as a rehearsal for growth—or karma. 

(51:30) Creating Change from the Inside Out Why transforming yourself is the only way meaningful change happens in the world. 

Listen, apply, and enjoy!

Transformational Takeaway 

True transformation doesn’t come from fixing the world outside of you—it begins by turning inward. As Gary Zukav reminds us, the frightened parts of your personality are not obstacles, but doorways to deeper awareness, compassion, and authentic power. When you learn to recognize fear, choose love, and act from alignment with your soul, you step into a life guided not by reaction, but by conscious creation.

In this compelling continuation of the 2026 series, Jim expands on Don Juan and Don Xavier’s teachings by bringing listeners into a grounded, practical conversation about economic cycles, human evolution, and spiritual preparedness. Drawing from decades of shamanic guidance, global economic patterns, and his own experience as an investor, Jim explains why the coming years—especially 2026—represent a crossroads for humanity. This episode breaks down how global shifts affect your energy, your frequency, and your personal stability, and why your spiritual posture determines the quality of your life amid large-scale change.

He dives deeper into economic realities rarely discussed in spiritual circles, including debt cycles, the weakening U.S. economy, the rise of China, precious metals, inflation dynamics, and the BRICS movement. Jim explains these not to alarm listeners but to help them think clearly, prepare wisely, and avoid unnecessary suffering. With insight from Don Juan's teachings on becoming “immune” to collapse, and prophetic references from Hopi Kachina, Nostradamus, Edgar Cayce, and others, he shows how spiritual alignment, not fear, is the stabilizing force in uncertain times.

This episode encourages listeners to become more conscious participants in their financial lives, understand what is unfolding globally, and begin preparing in ways that elevate—not constrict—their frequency. 

What You’ll Discover in This Episode: 

(01:02) Why external world changes impact your inner world Jim explains why he’s choosing to address economics on a spiritual podcast—and why energetic resilience matters when global structures shift.  

(05:40) Economic warning signs most people overlook From inflated markets to unsustainable debt and misleading narratives, Jim outlines the indicators pointing toward major global restructuring.  

(10:08) 2026 as humanity’s crossroads Drawing from ancient prophecies and shamanic teachings, Jim describes why consciousness is diverging and why your choices determine which path you follow.  

(16:45) How to think about becoming “immune” to economic turmoil Jim clarifies Don Juan’s definition of independence—living with minimal debt, stabilizing your life, and grounding your frequency regardless of circumstances.  

(22:10) Why investors are shifting into precious metals With gold at historic highs and global banks hoarding reserves, Jim explains why metals preserve—not grow—wealth during instability.  

(30:22) Preparing spiritually while learning financially Jim outlines how to explore experts like Ray Dalio, Warren Buffett, and Mark Moss to strengthen your understanding, all while maintaining a high spiritual frequency.  

Listen, apply, and enjoy! 

Transformational Takeaway 

The world is changing, but fear doesn’t prepare you—consciousness does. Your greatest protection in uncertain times is the combination of grounded financial awareness and elevated spiritual frequency. When you reduce unnecessary debt, stay curious, and stay awake to what’s unfolding around you, you begin to navigate life from strength rather than scarcity. And when you pair that with spiritual discipline—presence, clarity, and higher choice—you become resilient, stable, and empowered no matter what the external world is doing. The crossroads ahead invites you to rise. Choose the path of awareness now.
