Episodes
Why does resilience feel so heavy? Because you're not actually feeling the pain you're bypassing it.
In this final episode of the Emotional Sobriety series, I draw a bright line between understanding your patterns and actually embodying change. Real healing doesn't happen in the head alone, and "high-vibe only" positivity isn't healing it's just another way to numb.
I share how I used ...
What if anger isn't the problem at all, but the protector standing guard over your boundaries, values, and deepest tenderness?
In Episode 2 of the Emotional Sobriety series, we dismantle the myth of the "anger problem" and reveal the truth: anger isn't dangerous, untrained behavior and unprocessed pain are. When you learn to separate feeling from reaction, you discover a practical path from emotiona...
What if your body is speaking first and your thoughts are just catching up? We kick off a three-part journey into emotional sobriety by reframing feelings and thoughts as information, not identity, and by teaching a grounded, practical way to listen from the neck down. Through personal story, science-informed insights, and a guided practice, we explore how childhood conditioning trained us to override our nervous syst...
You're exhausted, but you can't stop. You say yes when you mean no. You override the tightness in your chest and the knot in your stomach because you're supposed to be rational, agreeable, strong. But your body has been trying to tell you something. In this episode, we explore how to read your nervous system's signals, recognize the armor you're wearing, and recalibrate the magnet that keeps p...
A bite-sized episode on how to actually create change when you're already exhausted. Hint: It starts with one promise.

Exhausted from setting boundaries that people keep crossing?
The problem isn't them—it's that what you're calling "boundaries" are actually attempts at control. And control never works.
In this episode, we break down the difference between:
- Boundaries** (what you hold up against yourself)
- Sovereignty** (choosing what you will and won't participate in)
Trade the noise of ten resolutions for the clarity of one word. We explore how a single intention can act like a compass aligning your goals, calming your nervous system, and making decisions simpler and more honest. Instead of forcing a new identity, we focus on trusting what’s already within you, so progress feels grounded rather than frantic.
I share why my word for 2026 is spacious and how choosing it fro...
Forgiveness without access. That single reframe changes how you heal, set boundaries, and stop returning to what hurts.
Most of us were taught forgiveness means reconciliation that if you've truly forgiven someone, they get to come back. But forgiveness is releasing the war with reality, not granting someone access to your life.
Here's why you keep going back: you can't forgive what you haven't griev...
Are you settling for crumbs when your life is calling you to the whole meal? We open with a clear look at why so many of us accept scraps of connection and approval texts that trickle in, one-sided friendships, invitations that feel like obligations and why that pattern can feel safer than being alone. The truth is simpler and braver: a worthiness wound trains the nervous system to seek familiar rejection and then use...
We reframe shame as a protector and guide you through a simple somatic practice to meet what it guards. We share how negative bias binds your story and how gentle curiosity opens space for change and choice.
• shame functions as a bodyguard, not a villain
• negative bias fuses with identity and narrows choice
• looping personal narratives as a false form of safety
• somatic check-in with hand-on-b...
What happens when a high school English paper becomes a 911 call that saves a family?
In this deeply vulnerable episode, fractional COO and horsewoman Kallai Plummer takes us through her transformation from survival mode single mother to conscious parent and the therapy journey that made it possible. We open with a grounding breathwork practice before diving into the messy, beautiful work of healing generational trauma...
What if mental health isn't something you're diagnosed with—but something you train daily, like physical fitness?
Arnold Beekes watched the mental health system fail his sister. Institutions prioritized filling seats over healing people. Two of her classmates died by suicide that same week. That bike ride home changed everything.
A former corporate executive turned global citizen, Arnold created "brain fi...
"What if the smartest part of your brain is the one that learned to hide?"
We start with a grounding practice to meet the body where it is, then sit with therapist and podcast host Malisa Hepner to unpack how the "golden child" mask, complex trauma, and perfectionism can quietly fracture a life—and how she pieced it back together.
In this conversation:
- Trauma as separation from self, not just &quo...
The cards wouldn't shuffle. Then "Chop Wood" appeared twice. The universe was insisting on one message: transformation doesn't live in breakthroughs. It lives in what you do every single day.
In this episode:
- Why your nervous system resists simplicity (even when you crave peace)
- The real reason "just breathe" makes you roll your eyes
- Who you are when life isn't a crisis and why that ...
What if your body could trust your dreams?
In this raw EFT tapping session, we tackle a high-stakes fear: promoting a deeply personal book while living with brain lesions, chronic pain, and the very real risk that stress could trigger relapse.
Tapping coach Amy Vincze guides a live session that moves from 9/10 head pain to 2/10 in 45 minutes—not through bypassing fear, but by meeting it exactly where it live...
What if two minutes of breath could change the story you're living? We sit down with Rocío Aquino & Ángel Orengo to trace a path from chaos to center, through failure, forgiveness, and the everyday practices that make self-love practical. Their novel, The Orchid: The Secret Code of Modern Goddesses, isn't just a beautiful narrative; it's a field guide woven into story, where five women mirror our re...
Mindfulness extends beyond being a buzzword into a practical, accessible tool for navigating life's challenges with greater ease and presence.
Alan Carroll, a public speaking coach with 50 years of spiritual practice, shares how creating space between thoughts transforms our relationship with emotions and enhances our ability to respond rather than react.
• Mindfulness lives in present time, while t...

87 days left in 2025. How did you invest your most valuable asset—your time?**
If you keep saying “I’ll do it next time” and never do, this episode is for you. We pull apart the unspoken rules keeping you small, be polite when disrespected, stay small so others feel safe, don’t ask for too much and replace them with clarity, boundaries, and self-trust you can feel in your body.
You’ll get a guided mi...
