In this deeply raw and powerful episode, I sit down with Dee Mani—a mother, author, and sovereignty guide—whose life changed completely after being diagnosed with triple-negative breast cancer. But this isn’t a story about illness—it’s a story about liberation.

Dee shares how she walked away from the prescribed scripts of fear, pharmaceuticals, and silence to instead listen deeply to her body, her spirit, and the Earth. Through fasting, shadow work, grounding, and sacred plant medicines like cannabis and psilocybin, she not only healed physically—she reclaimed her voice, her truth, and her ancestral wisdom.

We talk about trauma, race, colonization, and how the medical system too often pathologizes what is actually a call to awakening. Dee brings fierce clarity and unapologetic love to this conversation, illuminating how reclaiming wellness is a political, spiritual, and embodied act.

If you’ve ever felt dismissed by institutions, if you’ve questioned the cost of compliance, or if you’re seeking healing on your own terms—this episode will speak directly to your soul.

Gina Cavalier

...Episode 75 feels like a milestone — and there’s no better guest to mark it with than Gina Cavalier. In this conversation, Gina takes us on a soulful, vulnerable, and deeply practical journey through healing, intuition, and creative transformation. From the brink of suicide to building an expansive ecosystem of healing through books, art, an app, and her podcast The Liberated Healer, Gina’s path is a testimony to the power of radical self-love and energetic alignment.

We explore how to discern intuition from fear, why forgiveness is often the final step in healing, and how even in our darkest moments, we can reconnect to the frequency of love — whether that’s through scribbling pain onto a page, dancing with ascended masters, or volunteering at an animal shelter.

This is a conversation about honoring the stories that awaken us, releasing the ones that keep us numb, and remembering who we truly are. It’s about listening inward, showing up for others, and knowing — in Gina’s words — “You are the joy that nothing else is.”

Some stories don’t begin—they rupture. And in that tearing open, something deeper often steps through.

In this episode, I’m joined by Lindsay Stanton—soul guide, author of The Enduring and Everlasting, and cofounder of The Soul Revival community—for a luminous conversation about grief, embodiment, and the unbreakable bonds that stretch beyond this life. Lindsay lost her beloved Roger, and what emerged from that loss was not just sorrow—but a whole new channel of love, trust, and spiritual connection.

We explore how somatic wisdom helps us feel signs in our body before we even name them in the mind. We talk dream visits, daily dialogue with the spirit world, and the difference between clinging and communion. Lindsay shares how grief became sacred movement, how walking one foot at a time mirrored her healing, and how she now guides others through their own losses—not with prescriptions, but with presence.

This isn’t a conversation about getting over it. It’s about getting through with grace, and finding, sometimes for the first time, what really endures.

Chandler James Blog

In this episode, I sit down with Chandler James, a trauma recovery guide and ecological healer, to explore how healing happens when we return to the ground beneath our feet—literally and metaphorically. We talk about what it means to move beyond burnout by slowing down, listening to the body, and reawakening to the wisdom of the land.

Chandler shares stories from her own journey through chronic illness, spiritual disconnection, and eventual renewal through deep nature immersion. We explore themes of ecological belonging, tracking as a healing modality, and how a “natural mind” might offer not just insight—but transformation.

This conversation is a compass for anyone feeling overwhelmed, fragmented, or digitally saturated, and yearning to come home to something real.

Strong Body Green Planet

In this episode, I sit down with Kate Galli to explore what it really means to live strong—from the gym to the dinner table to the heart. Kate is a longtime personal trainer, a plant-based powerhouse, and a voice of grounded conviction in the vegan space. But her story isn’t just about muscle. It’s about values, grief, and the courage to live in alignment when it’s not always easy—or convenient.
We talk about her early days going vegetarian out of love for animals, her shift to veganism after Cowspiracy, and how her identity as a fitness pro both clashed with and evolved alongside that journey. Kate opens up about losing her mom, transforming anger into advocacy, and the surprising ways food prep became a form of love.
This conversation is full of real talk on what it means to show up, eat with integrity, and cultivate strength that goes beyond the body. Whether you're vegan, veg-curious, or simply craving more meaning behind your habits, this one’s for you.

Zac Russell on Link Tree

I sat down with Zac Russell, and this conversation felt like a breath of fresh air through the noise of everyday life. He brought such calm clarity—not with techniques or frameworks, but with presence. Together, we explored what it means to travel light in a world that encourages us to carry so much.

We talked about:

• Dropping the story: how ego scripts keep us in loops of survival, and what happens when we set them down.

• 
  

• The weight of thought: how holding on to past pain and future worry shows up in the body.

• 
  

• Peace as a practice: not something we earn, but something we uncover when we stop performing.

• Coaching as space-holding: how transformation happens through simple presence, not diagnosis.

• And how a clear view of death can bring sharper peace to the now.

Zac reminded me that we’re always carrying something—and we always have the choice to put it down. This one’s an invitation to drop the story, keep the peace, and walk a little lighter.

Leslie Hocker

This episode felt like a long conversation with an old friend—one who just happens to be a petroleum executive turned Pilates pioneer, NLP trainer, and deeply grounded coach.

Leslie Hocker joined me to explore the life behind the resume: what we carry, what we shed, and how we learn to walk through life’s minefields—sometimes by following, sometimes by leading. We talked about the invisible shifts that guide reinvention, the mental strength of elite athletes, and the quiet power of letting go. Leslie shared stories of launching a Pilates studio in the 1980s (decades before it was trendy), what it means to be a “recovering perfectionist,” and why declarations are more than affirmations—they’re conversations with the self.

She also offered practical insights from her years of mentoring others in business: how to coach someone who doesn’t yet feel safe dreaming, why timing is everything, and how to build a life you don’t need a vacation from.

This one is full of heart, hard-won wisdom, and deeply useful perspective for anyone in a season of growth or change. We even touched on death—not as an end, but as a compass for living fully.

Peter Moore on Substack

I’ve been deeply moved by Peter Moore’s storytelling…moments that swing wildly from fart whistles to moments so tender they hit you in the gut. In this episode, we trek across landscapes both literal and emotional: foggy hikes in the White Mountains, late‑night Red Rocks concerts, and game‑time awakenings with Nikola Jokic. We talk Zen in baseball fandom, bearing life’s absurdities with humor and awe, the transformative risks that nearly killed him, and how cartooning saved his voice.

Peter’s journey—from ghostwriting for others to unveiling his own story through writing and illustration—is a roadmap for anyone wondering how and when to own their truth. He helps us see that suffering isn’t just something to survive—it’s something we can narrate, almost redeem, by sharing it with others. Tune in if you want to explore life’s summits, stumbles, and the laughter that helps us move ever forward.
