In this soul-nourishing episode of Pockets of Knowledge, host Desiree Stanley sits down with bestselling author and intuitive healer Inna Segal for a powerful conversation about emotional healing, ancestral patterns, and the wisdom of the body. Inna shares her personal journey—from growing up as an immigrant facing deep emotional and physical challenges to experiencing a spiritual awakening that led her to become a global teacher and healer.
Together, they explore how unresolved trauma, generational pain, and childhood experiences can show up as physical symptoms, and why tuning into the body’s messages is a vital step in healing. Inna offers compassionate insights on working with the inner child, understanding emotional roots of illness, and reconnecting with your intuition.
Drawing from her bestselling book The Secret Language of Your Body, Inna shares practical guidance for decoding symptoms and releasing patterns that no longer serve you. Whether you're struggling with chronic symptoms, seeking clarity around old emotional wounds, or simply curious about energy healing, this conversation offers hope, compassion, and tangible tools for transformation. It’s a beautiful reminder that healing is not about fixing yourself—it's about reconnecting with who you truly are.

Medal of Honor: Stories of Courage
Rewarded for bravery that goes above and beyond the call of duty, the Medal of Honor is the United States’ top military decoration. The stories we tell are about the heroes who have distinguished themselves by acts of heroism and courage that have saved lives. From Judith Resnik, the second woman in space, to Daniel Daly, one of only 19 people to have received the Medal of Honor twice, these are stories about those who have done the improbable and unexpected, who have sacrificed something in the name of something much bigger than themselves. Every Wednesday on Medal of Honor, uncover what their experiences tell us about the nature of sacrifice, why people put their lives in danger for others, and what happens after you’ve become a hero. Special thanks to series creator Dan McGinn, to the Congressional Medal of Honor Society and Adam Plumpton. Medal of Honor begins on May 28.
