This week on the Gutsy Chick podcast, I’m sitting down with the incredible Simon Luthi—aka the Rocket Shaman—for a conversation that’s part Wall Street unraveling, part soul-level awakening. After surviving three near-death experiences and a cancer diagnosis, Simon traded high-powered strategy for healing work that actually transforms.
If you’ve ever felt like the “success” game was costing you your health or your soul, this episode is your permission slip to rewrite the whole script.

00:00 The Journey to Becoming the Rocket Shaman
02:09 From Wall Street to Healing: A Personal Transformation
05:50 The Epidemic of Chronic Illness and Healing

The Male Room with Dr. Jesse Mills
As Director of The Men’s Clinic at UCLA, Dr. Jesse Mills has spent his career helping men understand their bodies, their hormones, and their health. Now he’s bringing that expertise to The Male Room — a podcast where data-driven medicine meets common sense. Each episode separates fact from hype, science from snake oil, and gives men the tools to live longer, stronger, and happier lives. With candor, humor, and real-world experience from the exam room and the operating room, Dr. Mills breaks down the latest health headlines, dissects trends, and explains what actually works — and what doesn’t. Smart, straightforward, and entertaining, The Male Room is the show that helps men take charge of their health without the jargon.
