b'Scott Cuthe Live with Gary Douglas as they discuss his latest book, Beyond the\\xa0Utopian Ideal.\\xa0\\n\\nBest-selling author, international speaker and a sought-after facilitator, Gary Douglas is known for his intensity of awareness and his incredible capacity to facilitate people to\\xa0\\u2018know what they know\\u2019. He chooses to embody consciousness in everything that he does which inspires others to choose to become more conscious as a result.\\n\\nGary came with an exceptional level of awareness into the Midwest middle class \\u2018white bread\\u2019 family and lived the \\u2018Leave it to Beaver\\u2019 childhood. He has a very different view on life and realized that he was so different from most of the people he knew when he was only six years old. He became aware of this difference by watching people create their lives and seeing that none of it was about the joy and the possibilities \\u2013 it was always about the wrongness of everything.\\xa0 Gary knew there had to be more than this reality was offering since there was nothing about it that was magical, joyful or expansive. So, he began seeking deeper awareness to life\\u2019s mysteries at an early age.\\xa0 Along the way he uncovered a new way forward- one that would create change in the world and in people\\u2019s lives. He discovered that magic is all around us; it\\u2019s something we create \\u2013 its consciousness. He recognized that the capacity to be more aware and more conscious was every person\\u2019s gift if they were willing to choose it.\\n\\nHis gift is his ability to look at life, the universe and the consciousness that we all are, as well as the possibilities that are an intrinsic part of it from a space that no one else has ever chosen.'
