Third Eye on the Prize
Welcome to Third Eye on the Prize
A portal for presence in a world addicted to appearances.
Short honest talks on the perplexing, splendid mess of being a human right now.
Increasing numbers of us are having awakening experiences, getting glimpses into the truth that spiritual masters have been telling us about for centuries: that we’re not really separate from one another or the rest of Creation; the separateness is an illusion.
This is not easy to digest but it’s a central paradox of life: we have one reality in this body that exists in time and is dissolving and another one beyond it, beyond body, personality, and personal story.
How do we navigate this duality in a practical way? By walking what’s called the Middle Path or the Middle Way, a central idea in the Buddhist tradition. But we don’t have to be Buddhists to apply this wisdom in daily life. We do, however, have to practice, as best we can, being present, not getting lost in memories from the past or thoughts about the future, not getting stuck grasping at things or pushing them away.
I’m Debra Sansone, poet, artist, and teacher, and host of Third Eye on the Prize.

Third Eye on the Prize
Ego, Earwax, and Yin/Yang
What does earwax have to do with ego? More than you’d think.
A trip to the doctor becomes a mirror for how we handle ego — not by forcing or avoiding, but by finding the balance between yin and yang.
In this episode of Third Eye on the Prize, Debra shares an unexpected lesson from a simple trip to the doctor — how something as ordinary as ear irrigation can reveal the delicate balance between doing and allowing, effort and ease, yin and yang.
Through this everyday story, we explore how awareness softens what’s stuck, and how real growth often lives right at the edge of discomfort.
🎧 Tune in for a grounded reflection on balance, ego, and the art of staying awake to what life keeps trying to teach us.
