The Greatest ROI You’ll Ever Make With Craig Siegel

Let’s have some fun. On today’s episode of The CLS Experience, Craig Siegel dives deep into abundance, reinvention, identity transformation, and the spiritual practices that create lasting fulfillment. Craig shares his journey from a successful but misaligned Wall Street career to discovering his true purpose, explaining how stress, burnout, and a personal dark night of the soul ultimately became catalysts for growth. He introduces a powerful framework for expansion: awaken desire across every area of your life, focus on who you need to become, and build an identity capable of holding your next level. Craig emphasizes the importance of creating daily connection with God and Source, explaining why even five to ten minutes of intentional connection can produce extraordinary results in every area of life. The conversation explores loyalty to old identities, the dangers of comfort, using pressure as a signal for expansion, and the importance of intentionally choosing discomfort to accelerate growth. This episode is a powerful reminder that abundance begins with desire, transformation begins with identity, and lasting fulfillment comes from daily alignment with something greater than yourself.0:48 The Dark Night That Changed Everything03:43 Why Disconnecting Creates Clarity05:52 The Hidden Loyalties Keeping You Stuck07:42 Pressure Is a Sign of Expansion26:53 Playing Small Is Spiritually IrresponsibleCheck out Matt LeBris on Instagram HERE:Check out Matt LeBris's Podcast HERE:Early Bird Tickets now available for our October live event, CLS: Formation HERE:To join our community click here.➤ Order a copy of Craig's book The Reinvention Formula today! ➤ Join our CLS texting community for free daily inspiration and wisdom to elevate your life, text (917) 634-3796➤ INSTAGRAM➤ FACEBOOK➤ TIKTOK➤ YOUTUBE➤ WEBSITE➤ LINKEDIN➤ X

When You Stop Needing, You Start Receiving - Minisode

On today’s episode of The CLS Experience we have a powerful bonus Minisode with Craig Siegel diving deep into fulfillment, abundance, money consciousness, and the hidden relationship we have with receiving. Craig challenges listeners to consider whether the success they are chasing would actually bring fulfillment or simply relief from pressure. He explains why true abundance comes from becoming the source rather than relying on external validation, outcomes, or bank account balances. Craig introduces his powerful RECEIVE Framework, a practical roadmap for uncovering limiting beliefs around money, identifying energy leaks, expanding receiving capacity, and upgrading identity. He explores why money often reflects our ability to receive rather than our ability to earn, how scarcity, comparison, and judgment block flow, and why gratitude acts as a technology that expands abundance. This episode is a powerful reminder that most people visit abundance temporarily, but true transformation happens when abundance becomes part of who you are.01:45 Your Real Problem Isn't Money03:33 The Voice Keeping You Stuck04:09 What's Secretly Blocking More Abundance07:42 Stop Visiting Abundance.

The Identity Shift That Unlocks Abundance With Craig Siegel

On today’s episode of The CLS Experience we have a powerful conversation where Craig was the guest on Matt LeBris Podcast diving deep into identity, consciousness, spirituality, and the internal shift that unlocks true abundance. Craig Siegel shares why becoming who you are meant to be is less about adding more external strategies, hacks, or achievements and more about returning inward through stillness, awareness, and spiritual alignment. Together, Craig and Matt explore how many people unconsciously chase validation, success, and outcomes from a place of lack, while true abundance comes from operating from wholeness. Drawing from Kabbalah principles and the concept of the “Light of the Creator,” Craig explains that what we desire already exists and our role is to become the energetic match to receive it. They discuss loyalty to past identities, balancing effort with surrender, daily spiritual practices, and why attachment to outcomes often reveals deeper feelings of incompleteness. This conversation is a profound reminder that abundance is not something we chase externally, but something we unlock internally through consciousness, alignment, and identity transformation.8:23 Becoming Who You Truly Are10:39 Wholeness Versus Lack15:56 Loyalty To Old Identities21:48 Daily Spiritual Practice27:58 Desire Everything, Need NothingTitle: You’re Blocking the Abundance You’re Asking ForCheck out Matt LeBris on Instagram HERE:Check out Matt LeBris's Podcast HERE:Early Bird Tickets now available for our October live event, CLS: Formation HERE:To join our community click here.➤ Order a copy of Craig's book The Reinvention Formula today! ➤ Join our CLS texting community for free daily inspiration and wisdom to elevate your life, text (917) 634-3796➤ INSTAGRAM➤ FACEBOOK➤ TIKTOK➤ YOUTUBE➤ WEBSITE➤ LINKEDIN➤ X

Who Is Paying the Price for Your Playing Small? - Minisode

Let’s have some fun. On today’s episode of The CLS Experience we have a powerful bonus conversation with Craig Siegel diving deep into personal responsibility, bold action, reframing challenges, and becoming the person capable of holding your next level. Craig shares why complaining quietly gives away power while reframing situations takes your power back, reminding listeners that growth begins the moment you stop identifying as a victim to circumstances. He also redefines “playing small,” explaining that it is not humility but withholding your gifts, voice, and impact from people who genuinely need what you have to offer. Craig challenges listeners to ask themselves who is not being served because they are shrinking, hiding, or avoiding bold action. The episode also explores why business growth is less about tactics and algorithms and more about internal capacity, standards, identity shifts, and making the decisions you’ve been postponing. This conversation is a direct reminder that your next level is already waiting for you, but it requires a stronger, bolder, and more expanded version of yourself to step forward.01:28 Redefining Playing Small02:00 Stop Withholding Your Gift03:05 Questions That Create Boldness04:07 Grow Internally FirstEarly Bird Tickets now available for our October live event, CLS: Formation HERE:To join our community click here.➤ To connect with Craig Siegel follow Craig on Instagram➤ Order a copy of my new book The Reinvention Formula today! ➤ Join our CLS texting community for free daily inspiration and business strategies to elevate your day, text (917) 634-3796➤ INSTAGRAM➤ FACEBOOK➤ TIKTOK➤ YOUTUBE➤ WEBSITE➤ LINKEDIN➤ X

Kabbalah & Money: How to Rewrite Your Wealth Story and Master the Ego With Marcus Weston

On today’s episode of The CLS Experience we have a transformational conversation with the brilliant Marcus Weston, diving deep into Kabbalah, ego mastery, conscious leadership, and building true wealth consciousness. Marcus shares his powerful journey from Goldman Sachs and Citibank into becoming a global thought leader helping people reconnect to purpose, soul alignment, and fulfillment. Together, Craig and Marcus unpack why stress is often created by the gap between who we truly are and who we think we need to be, and how Kabbalah offers a lifelong path of awakening deeper desire, consciousness, and meaning. Marcus reframes ego not as something to destroy, but as an “energy intelligence” designed to strengthen us through challenges and resistance. They discuss comfort versus growth, why most people unknowingly make “bad trades” for temporary certainty, and how slowing down reactions creates freedom and power. The conversation also goes deep into money mastery, wealth blocks, receiving and sharing, and why wealth cannot shrink itself to meet your current identity - you must rise energetically to meet it. From purpose and wholeness to pain, leadership, sports psychology, and spiritual tools like Zohar practice and service, this episode is filled with wisdom for anyone looking to elevate their consciousness, leadership, and life.6:19 Awakening Big Desire14:20 Ego Defined by Kabbalah24:32 False Battles to Freedom41:02 Money Mastery Myths45:57 Hidden Wealth BlocksCheck out Marcus on Instagram HERE:Check out Marcus HERE:Check out this podcast live on YouTube:Early Bird Tickets now available for our October live event, CLS: Formation HERE:To join our community click here.➤ Order a copy of Craig's book The Reinvention Formula today! ➤ Join our CLS texting community for free daily inspiration and wisdom to elevate your life, text (917) 634-3796➤ INSTAGRAM➤ FACEBOOK➤ TIKTOK➤ YOUTUBE➤ WEBSITE➤ LINKEDIN➤ X

You’re Blocking the Abundance You’re Asking For - Minisode

On today’s episode of The CLS Experience we have a powerful bonus conversation with Craig Siegel diving deep into nervous system calibration, abundance, and expanding your capacity to receive. Craig breaks down the concept of “building a bigger vessel” and explains why success, money, and opportunity often challenge identity more than strategy. He shares how many people unconsciously sabotage growth because their nervous system is not calibrated to safely hold overflow, visibility, or expansion. Craig reframes manifestation as seed level work rather than obsessing over visible results, reminding listeners that desires already exist “in escrow” waiting for energetic alignment. He also unpacks the four levels of receiving, moving from blocked receiving and conditional worthiness into open receiving and ultimately embodying the belief that “I am abundance.” This episode is a powerful reminder that true transformation begins internally, and that expanding your ability to receive is both a spiritual practice and an identity shift.0:51 Why Money Changes Identity02:00 The Four Levels of Receiving03:19 Conditional Receiving Patterns05:05 Becoming AbundanceEarly Bird Tickets now available for our October live event, CLS: Formation HERE:To join our community click here.➤ To connect with Craig Siegel follow Craig on Instagram➤ Order a copy of my new book The Reinvention Formula today! ➤ Join our CLS texting community for free daily inspiration and business strategies to elevate your day, text (917) 634-3796➤ INSTAGRAM➤ FACEBOOK➤ TIKTOK➤ YOUTUBE➤ WEBSITE➤ LINKEDIN➤ X

This Is Why You Haven’t Changed - Minisode

On today’s episode of The CLS Experience we have a mini bonus injection of consciousness. Dive into the idea that real transformation begins the moment you stop negotiating with your future.

This episode challenges you to identify the exact conversation, boundary, decision, or action you’ve been postponing and turn it into an initiation this week, not someday. Step into a powerful visualization of “burning the ships,” where retreat is no longer an option and a stronger version of you becomes unavoidable.
