12 AUG 2026 · What if the very first lie ever told is still the one running your life? Ray Gage and D. Grant Smith go back to the Garden of Eden, not for a Sunday school retelling, but to excavate the belief buried underneath it: the idea that you are not quite enough, and that something outside yourself is required to complete you. They call it the serpent's promise, and they trace how it still shows up today in coaching, marketing, self-help, and the quiet stories we tell ourselves every single day. This conversation goes deep into consciousness, discernment, the drama triangle, and the difference between striving toward something and building something you already have. It's a direct continuation of the Economy of Striving — the belief system this show keeps circling back to because it's the one underneath everything else. Fair warning: once you see it, you can't unsee it. Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/all-angles-asked--6694179/support.

14 JUL 2026 · There's the freedom you think you have, and then there's the freedom that actually sets you free. They are not the same thing.
In this episode, Ray Gage and D. Grant Smith are joined by their first-ever live guest — Stephanie Lawrence — for a raw, unscripted conversation about the difference between real freedom and "faux freedom": the version built on getting what you want, following the rules, and staying busy enough to never sit still.
They dig into presence, self-love, the drama triangle, why "love keeps no record of wrongs" is a freedom principle disguised as a Bible verse, and why outsourcing your emotional regulation to other people will always keep you in bondage — even if it looks like freedom from the outside.
This one will make you ask: what am I still carrying that was never mine to carry? Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/all-angles-asked--6694179/support.

28 JUN 2026 · What if the finish line you've been chasing... was never meant to be reached?
In this episode of All Angles Asked, Ray and D Grant unpack what they call the economy of striving: the invisible system built on the belief that you're always one achievement, promotion, breakthrough, or spiritual experience away from being enough. Together they explore:
- Why exhaustion may have less to do with hard work and more to do with hidden beliefs
- How nearly every institution depends on the idea that you still need something
- Why "I'm not enough" may be the foundation beneath every form of striving
- The difference between solving symptoms and recognizing the real problem
- How letting go of expectations can create more freedom than reaching another goal
This isn't a conversation about working less.
It's about questioning whether you've been running a race that was never yours to begin with. Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/all-angles-asked--6694179/support.

12 JUN 2026 · What if abundance isn't something you create? What if it's something you've forgotten?
In this episode of All Angles Asked, Ray and D Grant explore the relationship between abundance and wholeness, uncovering how the belief that we're "not enough" may be the foundation beneath nearly every fear, struggle, and act of striving.
Together they challenge assumptions about humility, success, identity, scarcity, and even spiritual growth itself. Along the way, they ask a provocative question:
If you were already whole, how differently would you see your life? Inside this episode:
- Why abundance and wholeness may be the same thing
- The hidden danger of building a life on unquestioned foundations
- How the need to be right can keep us from discovering truth
- Why questioning your beliefs isn't a lack of faith
- The difference between striving for fulfillment and recognizing it
- How the dream of separation continues to shape our experience
This conversation doesn't offer another self-improvement strategy. It asks whether the person trying to improve was ever broken in the first place. Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/all-angles-asked--6694179/support.

23 MAR 2026 · What if you’re not trying to wake up… but becoming aware inside the dream? In this episode of All Angles Asked, Ray and D Grant explore subconscious stories, the illusion of reality, and the possibility that life isn’t something to fix—but something to see differently. They dive into:
- How your inner story shapes your experience
- The idea that we may still be “asleep” in the dream
- Why wholeness isn’t something to achieve, but remember
- And how awareness—not effort—changes everything
This isn’t about adding more.

23 JAN 2026 · What if the pain you feel, the fear you carry, and the reality you fight to survive in… was never actually real?
In this episode of All Angles Asked, Ray and D Grant explore the grand sleight of hand that began in a garden and still governs most of our thinking today. They unpack the deception of ego, the weaponization of fear, and the difference between what is true and what we’ve simply agreed to call truth.
This is mysticism without the fluff, metaphysics without the performance, and consciousness in its rawest form. Inside:
- Why “your truth” and “my truth” might mean neither is truth at all
- How fear is used to give illusion its power
- Why the systems we trust often need fear to maintain control
- The misunderstanding of mysticism—and what it actually reveals
- What makes something assigned reality instead of actual reality
- And why love is the only thing that can’t be threatened
This episode won’t ask you to believe anything.
It will just ask if you’re willing to see the trick that’s been running under your nose the whole time. Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/all-angles-asked--6694179/support.

4 NOV 2025 · What if most of your frustration isn’t about what happened—
but about how it didn’t follow the script you never realized you were holding?
In this episode of All Angles Asked, Ray and D Grant wander deep into the roles we assign (to people, systems, even ourselves), the expectations we attach to those roles, and the emotional fallout when life doesn’t perform the way we thought it should.
Together, they explore:
- Why the education system might not be broken—it might just be doing exactly what it was designed to do
- The invisible scripts we inherit from culture, school, and survival
- How resentment often grows where old roles go unmet
- The link between role expectations and emotional reactions
- The illusion of “fixing the past” and what forgiveness actually frees
This conversation won’t wrap up cleanly—because real life rarely does.
But if you’ve ever wondered why something still bothers you… this might be the angle you didn’t know you were missing. Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/all-angles-asked--6694179/support.

15 OCT 2025 · This episode is a spiritual unpacking of abundance as consciousness—not currency.
Ray and D Grant dismantle the myth of abundance as accumulation, reframing ambition and desire, exploring judgment, identity, and the role of labels—all while weaving in Ho’oponopono, Christ consciousness, and the imbalance between work and life.
Together, they ask a bold question:
What if abundance can’t be achieved, earned, or sold—because it’s already who you are?
Inside:
- Why abundance can’t be sold, labeled, or measured
- The trap of goals—even spiritual ones
- How judgment and expectation disconnect us from our true nature
- Ho’oponopono as spiritual Windex for the lens you’ve been looking through
- The subtle difference between ambition and pressure—and how to spot it
- Why success without presence is still a form of lack
This isn’t a strategy for abundance.
It’s a shift in being.
Because abundance isn’t a business model—it’s your natural state. Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/all-angles-asked--6694179/support.

14 SEP 2025 · This episode is a spiritual grenade disguised as a conversation.
Ray and D Grant tackle abundance, mindset, scarcity, identity, ego, the illusion of progress, and the trap of self-improvement—and then detonate the whole system.
What begins as a dialogue about abundance unfolds into something deeper: a radical unlearning of what it means to be “enough.” If you’ve ever tried to manifest your way out of lack or fix yourself into worthiness, this one will shake your lens—and maybe remove it altogether. Inside:
- Why selling abundance usually means you don’t have it
- How every manifestation formula starts with a lie: you’re not enough
- The difference between seeing joy and simply remembering it
- Why Christ consciousness requires no lens, no hustle, and no fix
- What it really means to live an unhurried, unmarketed, abundant life
- And why the most spiritual truth often sounds like the simplest silence
This isn’t just a conversation. It’s a mirror. And what you see in it depends on whether you’re still looking. Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/all-angles-asked--6694179/support.

27 AUG 2025 · What if the tension you’re feeling isn’t about what someone did—
but about how they failed to play the role you never realized you cast them in?
In this episode of All Angles Asked, Ray and D Grant explore the unwritten scripts and unconscious roles that shape how we interpret relationships, systems, and even ourselves. From the expectations we place on school and business… to the emotions we attach to childhood stories… this is the beginning of a much deeper unraveling.
Inside:
- Why the education system may be doing exactly what it was designed for
- How expectations fuel emotional pain, especially when they’re unspoken
- The hidden cost of assigning roles without agreement
- Why remembering the past may be keeping you in it
- What forgiveness really frees—hint: it’s not them
- And why most people selling abundance are actually experts in scarcity
