ALIVE with Jessica Schiller: Heal Your Inner Child + Ancestral Trauma
ALIVE with Jessica Schiller is a sanctuary for healing in a world that asks us to move faster than our nervous systems were designed to. Here, science meets spirit through conversations on trauma recovery, nervous system regulation, somatic healing, sound, intuition, and embodied spirituality. Together, we’ll explore how to heal your inner child, break generational patterns, and come home to yourself- not by escaping your humanity, but by fully inhabiting it. Because healing isn’t about becoming someone else. It’s about remembering who you’ve always been. Welcome home. Let’s come ALIVE again. ✨

The collective chaos feels like a lot, especially for empaths and highly sensitives souls who carry so much.
The collective chaos becomes collective trauma if you're not protective of your energy and where you place your attention. I've personally been feeling this, and wanted to continue the conversation from Ep. 125: We Are All Exhausted Right Now + How to Recover from Burnout (for Empaths) with what helps me RISE ABOVE t...

Burnout is a buzzy word, but really for...

DISGRACELAND is an award-winning music and true crime podcast about musicians getting away with murder and behaving very badly. Jerry Lee Lewis's 5th wife? Dead. Sid and Nancy? Both dead. Why? Because musicians are insane, and insane things happen to them. Why did we lose Amy Winehouse at 27? Was Debbie Harry really abducted by Ted Bundy as she claims? Is Patti Smith not just the "Godmother of Punk", but also the "Original True Crime Girl"? What really happened the night of the Jay Z nightclub stabbing? What do the Diddy indictments truly reveal? All these stories and more, on artists from every genre and their true crimes, in our massive 260-plus story archive. The Dead, the Stones, Johnny, Willie, Frank, Kurt, Courtney, Gaga, Lana, Taylor, and too many to name. DISGRACELAND is music history come to life through audio storytelling as you've never heard it before, with revealing facts: yes, assassins are the real reason the Beatles quit touring—reclaimed myths: no, Mama Cass didn't die from choking on a ham sandwich––and constant reckoning between art and artist––all told through the lens of true crime. This is the podcast for the self-proclaimed "Disgos", the musically obsessed and the true crime heads; the outsiders, the independent thinkers who know that the best history is the history that gets buried. DISGRACELAND is where host Jake Brennan tells the stories they didn't want told. The kind you'll end up telling someone else. Get ready to uncover hidden truths and buckle up for truly edge-of-your-seat storytelling. New, fully scripted, sound-designed episodes are released every Tuesday. Bonus chat-style episodes where Jake responds to voicemails, texts, and emails from Disgos hit on Thursdays, and "Rewind" episodes from our archive drop on Sundays. DISGRACELAND is not a journalistic podcast. It's an entertainment podcast inspired by true events. Certain dialogue and scenes are dramatized, as is common in scripted entertainment based on real stories. Sources and credits for each episode are available at www.disgracelandpod.com.
