    In this episode of Healthy Waves, host Avik Chakraborty sits down with Steve Frazier, founder of Release the Coffee Cuffs, to explore the hidden effects of caffeine on our energy, mental clarity, and emotional well-being. Steve shares his personal journey of quitting caffeine twice, including the challenges of withdrawal, the impact of caffeine on circadian rhythm, and how it affects mood and focus. This eye-opening conversation offers practical tools to evaluate your caffeine habits, improve sleep quality, and regain control over your energy naturally. Whether you're a daily coffee drinker or simply curious about your relationship with caffeine, this discussion will help you make informed choices about how to fuel your day. About the Guest   Steve Frazier is the founder of Release the Coffee Cuffs, a program that helps people quit caffeine without giving up life. As a certified self-sabotage decoder, author, and speaker, Steve is passionate about guiding individuals to reclaim their health and energy by understanding the true effects of caffeine. Key Takeaways   Caffeine disrupts your circadian rhythm, impacting deep restorative sleep and causing long-term fatigue. Withdrawal symptoms like headaches and brain fog are common but can be managed with proper hydration and gradual reduction. Caffeine spikes cortisol and adrenaline, leaving the body in a constant fight-or-flight state. Social pressure makes it harder to quit; understanding this dynamic can help you stay committed. Life without caffeine brings more natural energy, mental clarity, and improved productivity without the crashes. Journaling caffeine intake is the first step to creating awareness and building a plan for healthier energy management.

    What if your dream life wasn't a weekend escape, but a daily, co-created reality rooted in purpose, belonging, and regeneration? In this episode of Healthy Waves, host Avik Chakraborty dives into a transformative conversation with Marat Omarov — visionary founder of The Ark, a regenerative village in Costa Rica. From leading Kazakhstan's Expo 2017 to walking away from high-profile success for deeper purpose, Marat shares the emotional, mental, and economic reinvention that birthed a thriving post-capitalist community. Together, they explore why the current model of capitalism is failing us, how regenerative frameworks can restore harmony, and why shared ownership is more than an economic tool — it's a way of life. This episode challenges us to rethink how we live, build, and connect. Tune in if you're curious about intentional communities, sustainable living, and how to align your inner purpose with outer impact. About the Guest:Marat Omarov is the founder of The Ark, a regenerative village in Costa Rica that blends ecological design, conscious capitalism, and deep community values. Formerly recognized by the President of Kazakhstan for leading Expo 2017, Marat left the high-performance world to build a future-focused model rooted in connection, contribution, and purpose-driven living. Key Takeaways : Reinvention Requires Unlearning: Marat shares how leaving a globally celebrated career took years of deep emotional work, including therapy, to deprogram societal, Soviet-era, and capitalist conditioning. True Regeneration Starts Internally: Building The Ark wasn't just about infrastructure—it was about shedding old identities and creating space for conscious, integrated living. Disconnect to Reconnect: Marat emphasizes the need for digital and social disconnection to rediscover personal purpose, urging listeners to spend meaningful time in nature and with purpose-led communities. Capitalism's Veil is Falling: The current economic system prioritizes profit over people and planet. Regenerative living offers an inclusive alternative that values contribution, stewardship, and shared prosperity. Open-Gated, Not Closed-Off: The Ark isn't a gated elite enclave—it's a living example of accessible regenerative living that includes Costa Rican families, community elders, and local partnerships. A Call to Action: Even if you're not ready to move to a regenerative village, the episode invites you to rethink your daily life—your community, schedule, and   Connect with the Guest:Website: https://theark.worldInstagram: https://instagram.com/theark.worldAttend online gatherings or visit The Ark in Costa Rica to experience regenerative living firsthand.

    Fuel for the Mind: Dr. Bhargav Patel on Nutrition, Trauma, and the Future of Healing

    Play Episode Listen Later Aug 28, 2025 23:27


    In this episode of Healthy Waves, we dive into the vital intersection of nutrition, trauma, and mental health with Dr. Bhargav Patel—psychiatrist, trauma researcher at Brown University, AI strategist, and CEO of Mypeak. Dr. Patel unpacks the often-overlooked link between food and mood, explains how trauma impacts the body and brain, and shares a 4-step framework to transform pain into growth. From Ayurvedic wisdom to cutting-edge AI tools in psychiatry, this conversation is packed with insights for anyone seeking deeper healing and sustained resilience. About the Guest:Dr. Bhargav Patel is a multifaceted leader shaping the future of mental health. He serves as a psychiatrist and trauma researcher at Brown University, leads Mypeak—an award-winning health optimization company—and is a clinical AI strategist. He blends ancient wisdom with modern science to advance trauma recovery, nutritional psychiatry, and tech-enabled mental wellness. His upcoming book The Trauma Transformed explores healing and post-traumatic growth. Key Takeaways: The connection between nutrition and mental health dates back to Ayurveda and is now resurfacing in modern psychiatry. Trauma and PTSD are distinct; only a small percentage of trauma cases develop into PTSD. Healing requires processing trauma, activating brain plasticity, creating overriding experiences, and finding meaning. AI can augment, not replace, mental health care—enhancing access while maintaining ethical guardrails. Peak performance should follow healing, not bypass it. Optimization and deep recovery can coexist on a spectrum. Nature, stillness, and personalized nutrition are future pillars of holistic leadership and mental health.   Connect with Dr. Bhargav Patel: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/bhargav-b-patel    Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?DM Me Here: https://www.podmatch.com/hostdetailpreview/avikTune in to all our 15 podcasts: https://www.podbean.com/podcast-network/healthymindbyavikSubscribe to the Newsletter: https://healthymindbyavik.substack.com/Join the Community: https://nas.io/healthymind Stay Tuned and Follow Us:YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@healthymind-healthylifeInstagram – https://www.instagram.com/healthyminds.podThreads – https://www.threads.net/@healthyminds.podFacebook – https://www.facebook.com/podcast.healthymindLinkedIn – https://www.linkedin.com/in/reemachatterjee/ | https://www.linkedin.com/in/avikchakrabortypodcaster #podmatch #healthymind #healthymindbyavik #wellness #MentalHealthAwareness #NutritionAndHealing #TraumaRecovery #AIInHealthcare #PostTraumaticGrowth #ConsciousLiving #MindBodyConnection #PodcastLife #VoicesOfUnity

    In this enlightening conversation, Dr. Anindya Siddhartha discusses the complexities of being a woman in today's society, addressing the societal pressures, the impact of education, and the importance of emotional health. She emphasizes the need for vulnerability in masculinity and the role of media in shaping perceptions. The discussion also touches on the mind-body connection and offers advice for future generations on love, respect, and resilience. Takeaways Embrace the glorious mess as you are. Life doesn't fit into categories; it's messy and magical. Education is just a degree; it doesn't define a person. Pain, depression, and anxiety have no gender; everyone experiences them. Vulnerability is a strength, not a weakness. Grief is a part of life; it will always be there. Love yourself first; everything else will fall into place. Healthy masculinity involves vulnerability and mutual respect. Breaking down is a normal part of being human. Empathy and compassion are essential in understanding others' struggles.

    The Trust Trap: Why Confidence Fails and Commitment Wins – with Clay Moffat

    In this powerful episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty sits down with elite behavioral coach and ex-Navy weapons tech Clay Moffat, author of The Trust Trap. Together, they dismantle the myth of confidence and reveal why commitment—not confidence—is the true foundation for trust, transformation, and self-leadership. If you've ever found yourself stuck in burnout, people-pleasing, or performance mode, this conversation will cut through the noise and call you back to your own authority. About the Guest:Clay Moffat is a high-performance coach, former Navy weapons technician, and the unapologetically direct author of The Trust Trap. He helps elite performers, leaders, and founders navigate betrayal, self-sabotage, and the illusion of confidence by teaching how to rebuild internal trust and commit to uncomfortable growth. Known for his no-fluff coaching and psychological insights, Clay's mission is to wake people up to their own patterns and reclaim their power. Key Takeaways: Confidence is emotional and unreliable—commitment is structural and sustainable. Most people wait to “feel ready,” but action creates confidence—not the other way around. The nervous system defaults to familiarity—even if it's destructive—due to evolutionary wiring. Outsourcing sanity looks like over-validation, avoidance, and attachment to external systems or roles. Leaders burning out often hide behind performance, micromanagement, and a fear of slowing down. Rebuilding trust in yourself starts by showing up consistently, not waiting for a perfect moment.

About the Guest:  Mridula Agarwal is a healer, energy worker, and creator of the Soul Rebirth Process and iReAwake Method. Drawing on over 24 years of experience in energy healing, she helps people release deep-seated emotional pain, karmic imprints, and subconscious conditioning to live in alignment with their true selves. Her work spans chakra clearing, ancestral healing, Akashic record insights, and guiding clients through profound life transformations. Key Takeaways: Most people carry energy blocks—unresolved emotional imprints, karmic memories, and ancestral patterns—that keep them stuck despite therapy or mindfulness practices. Healing requires addressing all layers simultaneously: subconscious mind, chakras, past life imprints, and ancestral wounds. Surface-level solutions can bring temporary relief but rarely remove the “root knife” causing ongoing pain. High achievers often feel blocks more intensely because pushing past limits triggers deeper life tests. Everyone's energy script is different—your challenges match your soul blueprint and destiny. The iReAwake Method blends energy attunements, soul part retrieval, and subconscious reprogramming for lasting results. True transformation happens when you integrate all parts of yourself—logical, intuitive, strong, and empathetic—rather than living in fragments. As a healer, maintaining energetic boundaries is critical to avoid absorbing clients' trauma. The universe often conspires with your unacknowledged desires, even if it looks like loss or breakdown at first. Recognizing and breaking toxic self-help myths (“just endure,” “it's your karma”) is essential for reclaiming your agency in healing.  Connect with the Guest:  Free 30-minute Clarity Call: https://ireawake.com/30-min-free-appointment/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mridula_ireawake Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?   DM on PM – Send me a message on PodMatch:DM Me Here:https://www.podmatch.com/hostdetailpreview/avik CHECK PODCAST SHOWS & BE A GUEST:   Tune to all our 19 podcasts: https://www.podbean.com/podcast-network/healthymindbyavik Subscribe To Newsletter: https://healthymindbyavik.substack.com/ Join Community: https://nas.io/healthymind OUR SERVICES   Business Podcast Management – https://ourofferings.healthymindbyavik.com/corporatepodcasting/ Individual Podcast Management – https://ourofferings.healthymindbyavik.com/Podcasting/ Share Your Story With World – https://ourofferings.healthymindbyavik.com/shareyourstory STAY TUNED AND FOLLOW US!   Medium – https://medium.com/@contentbyavik YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@healthymindbyavik Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/healthyminds.pod/ Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/podcast.healthymind Linkedin Page – https://www.linkedin.com/company/healthymindbyavik LinkedIn – https://www.linkedin.com/in/avikchakrabortypodcaster/ Twitter – https://twitter.com/podhealthclub Pinterest – https://www.pinterest.com/Avikpodhealth/ SHARE YOUR REVIEW   Share your Google Review – https://www.podpage.com/bizblend/reviews/new/ Share a Video Testimonial – https://famewall.healthymindbyavik.com/   #podmatch #healthymind #healthymindbyavik #wellness #HealthyMindByAvik #MentalHealthAwareness #StorytellingAsMedicine #PodcastLife #PersonalDevelopment #ConsciousLiving #GrowthMindset #MindfulnessMatters #VoicesOfUnity #InspirationDaily #podcast #podcasting #podcaster #podcastlife #podcastlove #podcastshow #podcastcommunity #newpodcast #podcastaddict #podcasthost #podepisode #podcastinglife #podrecommendation #wellnesspodcast #healthpodcast #mentalhealthpodcast #wellbeing #selfcare #mentalhealth #mindfulness #healthandwellness #wellnessjourney #mentalhealthmatters #mentalhealthawareness #healthandwellnesspodcast #fyp #foryou #foryoupage #viral #trending #tiktok #tiktokviral #explore #trendingvideo #youtube #motivation #inspiration #positivity #mindset #selflove #success

    Rebuilding from Rock Bottom: Addiction Recovery, Mindset & Healing with Trent Carter

    Play Episode Listen Later Aug 9, 2025 20:37


    In this deeply impactful episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, we explore the truth about addiction and what real recovery looks like with Trent Carter—founder of Renew Health, nurse practitioner, entrepreneur, and author of The Recovery Tool Belt. From his early days in trauma ICU to building one of New Mexico's most respected recovery clinics, Trent breaks down how recovery is not just about detox or willpower—it's about mindset, tools, support, and self-leadership. We talk about what the healthcare system often misses, how families can better support loved ones in addiction, and what it truly takes to break free from relapses and fear. If you've ever struggled, supported someone through addiction, or want to understand the path to lasting change, this episode is a must-listen. ABOUT THE GUEST   Trent Carter is the founder of Renew Health, a leading addiction recovery center based in New Mexico. He is a nurse practitioner, podcast host, and author of The Recovery Tool Belt. From a small-town Texas upbringing to nationwide impact, Trent brings a powerful, practical, and compassionate approach to addiction recovery and holistic healing. KEY TAKEAWAYS: Mindset is foundational: Whether it's recovery, entrepreneurship, or healing a relationship—your mindset sets the tone for everything. Trent emphasizes that lasting transformation begins with a clear, positive, and resilient mindset. Addiction recovery isn't one-size-fits-all: You must meet people where they are. Individualized strategies—not cookie-cutter programs—lead to better outcomes. Barriers to healing are real but surmountable: Fear of detox, stigma, past failures, or lack of resources often keep people from seeking help. Renew Health tackles this with flexible, safe detox programs and real-world strategies. Action trumps intention: Thinking about recovery is a start, but real change happens through consistent action, especially on the hard days. Healing is not just clinical—it's holistic: Hobbies, habits, routines, and purpose-driven living play a major role in maintaining sobriety and self-worth. There are tools for everyone: Whether you're a loved one, clinician, or someone in recovery, The Recovery Tool Belt is designed for practical, real-world use with strategies, resources, and frameworks to support sustainable change.     CONNECT WITH TRENT CARTER   Website: thetrentcarter.com Recovery Center: renewhealth.com Instagram & Facebook: @renewhealthnm | @thetrentcarter Book: The Recovery Tool Belt available on Amazon, Kindle, and major bookstores   Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?DM on PM - Send me a message on PodMatchDM Me Here:https://www.podmatch.com/hostdetailpreview/avik CHECK PODCAST SHOWS & BE A GUEST:   Tune to all our 19 podcasts: https://www.podbean.com/podcast-network/healthymindbyavik Subscribe To Newsletter: https://healthymindbyavik.substack.com/ Join Community: https://nas.io/healthymind OUR SERVICES   Business Podcast Management – https://ourofferings.healthymindbyavik.com/corporatepodcasting/ Individual Podcast Management – https://ourofferings.healthymindbyavik.com/Podcasting/ Share Your Story With World – https://ourofferings.healthymindbyavik.com/shareyourstory STAY TUNED AND FOLLOW US   • YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@healthymind-healthylife• Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/healthyminds.pod• Threads – https://www.threads.net/@healthyminds.pod• Medium – https://medium.com/@contentbyavik• Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/podcast.healthymind• LinkedIn – https://www.linkedin.com/in/reemachatterjee/ | https://www.linkedin.com/in/avikchakrabortypodcaster• Pinterest – https://www.pinterest.com/Avikpodhealth/ SHARE YOUR REVIEW   Google Review – https://www.podpage.com/bizblend/reviews/new/ Video Testimonial – https://famewall.healthymindbyavik.com/   #podmatch #healthymind #healthymindbyavik #addictionrecovery #mentalhealthpodcast #TheRecoveryToolBelt #TrentCarter #RenewHealth #recoveryispossible #mentalhealthmatters #transformationtools #mindsetshift #wellnesspodcast #selfleadership #podcastinglife

    The Hidden Mental Health Crisis in Business: When Survival Becomes Self-Betrayal | Scott Gilbert

    Play Episode Listen Later Aug 9, 2025 26:01


    In this powerful episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, we uncover what happens when your dream business turns into a mental and spiritual battlefield. Scott Gilbert, med spa entrepreneur and founder of the 5 Growth Engines system, shares how COVID-19 dismantled his thriving startup overnight and left him grappling with despair, debt, and identity loss. This isn't just a story of financial failure—it's a raw look into the mental health toll of entrepreneurship. Scott opens up about how survival mode led him to betray the very values he built his business on, and how hitting rock bottom became the foundation for a completely new system—one that's sustainable, client-focused, and soul-aligned. If you're a founder silently struggling or feel burned out from trying to “do it all,” this episode is your wake-up call. Tune in to learn how simplifying your business model, embracing discomfort, and reclaiming your integrity can rebuild both your revenue and your resilience.   About the Guest:Scott Gilbert is a med spa entrepreneur and creator of the 5 Growth Engines—a framework that helped him rebuild a seven-figure business after losing everything during COVID-19. His mission is to help service-based business owners grow without sacrificing their mental health or integrity.   Key Takeaways : Scott's business was devastated when COVID-19 hit just a day after his med spa launched, leaving him with over $400K in investment and no clients. The mental health collapse that followed showed him how financial desperation can hijack integrity and create cycles of self-betrayal. He explains how chasing short-term wins led him to become exactly what he set out to change—selling over serving. His transformation began with one walk, one podcast, and one thread of hope that led to a complete mindset shift. Scott's 5 Growth Engines now help business owners move from burnout to sustainable success with a focus on client results and mental well-being. A core message: simplify your offering, serve deeply, and don't outsource what you haven't learned to manage. He breaks the myth that outsourcing without understanding can lead to freedom—instead, it creates disconnection and poor decision-making.   Connect with the Guest:Send Scott a message on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/itsscottgilbert_/Message him “Avik” to receive a free copy of his 5 Growth Engines blueprint.   Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?DM Me on PodMatch – Send your story pitch:DM Me Here:https://www.podmatch.com/hostdetailpreview/avik CHECK PODCAST SHOWS & BE A GUEST: Tune to all our 19 podcasts: https://www.podbean.com/podcast-network/healthymindbyavik Subscribe To Newsletter: https://healthymindbyavik.substack.com/ Join Community: https://nas.io/healthymind OUR SERVICES: Business Podcast Management – https://ourofferings.healthymindbyavik.com/corporatepodcasting/ Individual Podcast Management – https://ourofferings.healthymindbyavik.com/Podcasting/ Share Your Story With the World – https://ourofferings.healthymindbyavik.com/shareyourstory STAY TUNED AND FOLLOW US!YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@healthymind-healthylifeInstagram – https://www.instagram.com/healthyminds.podThreads – https://www.threads.net/@healthyminds.podMedium – https://medium.com/@contentbyavikFacebook – https://www.facebook.com/podcast.healthymindLinkedIn – https://www.linkedin.com/in/reemachatterjee/LinkedIn – https://www.linkedin.com/in/avikchakrabortypodcasterPinterest – https://www.pinterest.com/Avikpodhealth/ SHARE YOUR REVIEW Google Review – https://www.podpage.com/bizblend/reviews/new/ Submit a Video Testimonial – https://famewall.healthymindbyavik.com/ #podmatch #healthymind #healthymindbyavik #MentalHealthAwareness #EntrepreneurMentalHealth #BurnoutRecovery #FinancialFreedom #MindsetShift #PodcastLife #BusinessLeadership #WellnessPodcast #HealingThroughFailure #GrowthMindset #ScottGilbert #MedSpaEntrepreneur #BusinessResilience #ResilientEntrepreneur #founderstory #covidimpact #sustainablebusiness

    Stillness as the Antidote to Burnout: Redefining Imposter Syndrome and Success with Markus Neukom

    Play Episode Listen Later Aug 9, 2025 23:59


    In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty and transformational thought partner Markus Neukom explore how cultivating stillness can unlock authenticity, purpose, and sustainable success. Markus explains why imposter syndrome is not a flaw but a signal and how stripping away external conditioning can help us return to our original design. Listeners will gain practical insight into embracing stillness as a creative force, breaking free from the "hamster wheel" of modern life, and leading with deeper clarity. This episode is essential for anyone navigating burnout, questioning their success, or craving a more meaningful way to live and lead. About the Guest   Markus Neukom is a consultant, speaker, and steward of the Institute of CFLI. He guides high-level leaders, founders, and visionaries back to their original design by creating spaces where clarity, legacy, and influence align. Known for his ability to pierce through performance layers, Markus helps individuals reawaken their most authentic selves. Key Takeaways   Stillness is not the absence of action but coherence between thoughts and the heart. Imposter syndrome is a symptom of deeper authenticity struggles, not a permanent flaw. The practice of stillness can help reverse burnout and even depression by restoring balance. Asking, “Who was I before the world decided who I had to be?” can spark profound self-awareness. True leadership and success come from alignment, not relentless striving.

    Healing Trauma & Returning to Your True Self | Julian Bermudez on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life

    Play Episode Listen Later Aug 9, 2025 26:51


    In this profound episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty is joined by somatic therapist and trauma guide Julian Bermudez for a deep, grounded conversation on healing trauma, reclaiming authenticity, and understanding emotional survival patterns. Together, they unpack what trauma really means—not as a clinical label, but as a disconnection from the self—and how real healing begins by turning inward, not by reinventing. Julian shares insights on how suppressed emotions manifest in daily behaviors, how societal rewards reinforce trauma patterns, and why healing is not about becoming someone new—but returning to who you've always been beneath the pain. A must-listen for anyone seeking emotional clarity, post-traumatic growth, and embodied wholeness. About the GuestJulian Bermudez is a therapist and emotional healing guide specializing in somatic awareness, post-psychedelic integration, and trauma recovery. He offers deep support for those ready to stop performing, soften survival strategies, and return to a state of connection, presence, and authenticity. Key Takeaways Trauma isn't just what happened—it's what happens inside us when we don't have the support to process it. Suppressing emotions and becoming overly agreeable are common survival patterns that often begin in childhood. Healing is not about fixing—it's about remembering and returning to the self we abandoned to survive. Authenticity isn't found, it's uncovered by listening to the pain in our body and tending to the unmet needs underneath it. Real recovery begins with curiosity: “What is this feeling trying to teach me?” Disconnection is not a flaw—it's an intelligent adaptation to trauma. But we can choose to reconnect. Facing what scares us within often reveals an inner child needing care, not punishment. Healing doesn't require radical reinvention. It starts with compassion, presence, and slowing down. .

From redefining failure to embracing "idea naps," this conversation will reshape the way you view creative potential.

    Breaking Free from Family Abuse and Toxic Systems: Self-Worth, Boundaries & Healing with Gargi Sen

    In this bold and deeply reflective episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty sits down with New York-based attorney and writer Gargi Sen, founder of Unsquashable Girl. Together, they uncover the invisible yet painful layers of familial gaslighting, cultural conditioning in South Asian households, toxic workplaces, and the lifelong impact of childhood emotional abuse. Gargi shares how she overcame these cycles—choosing courage, setting boundaries, and embracing healing with the unexpected support of her dog, Mr. Dempsey. Learn about her viral 3-Column Method to assess emotional safety in relationships and why it's okay to disappoint your family in order to honor yourself. This conversation is a roadmap for anyone ready to stop abandoning themselves and start living free.   About the Guest:Gargi Sen is a New York-based attorney, author, and the founder of Unsquashable Girl—a global movement supporting women to break free from toxic relationships, cultural oppression, and generational dysfunction. Her story of resilience includes escaping an abusive upbringing, breaking cultural taboos, and rebuilding self-worth with the help of her dog, Mr. Dempsey.   Key Takeaways : Healing begins when you stop seeking approval and start honoring your inner voice. Cultural conditioning in South Asian families often normalizes emotional abuse. Gargi's story powerfully challenges this status quo. Her 3-Column Method—positive, neutral, and negative energy mapping—is a practical and transformative way to assess all relationships (family, friends, workplace). It is okay to disappoint your family if it means preserving your peace and dignity. Animals, like Mr. Dempsey, can be our emotional guides—offering us unconditional love and mirroring what safe connection feels like. Toxic leadership in the workplace often reflects unresolved personal trauma; self-awareness is essential to walk away from dysfunction. The phrase “love shouldn't hurt” is central to Gargi's philosophy. If a relationship repeatedly drains or devalues you—it is not love. Estrangement from family can be an act of self-love and emotional survival, especially when safety is at risk.   How to Connect with Gargi Sen: Website: unsquashablegirl.com Book: Spiritual Energy Mapping Journal Instagram: @unsquashablegirl Learn more about Mr. Dempsey: mrdempsey.com Listeners can enter their email in this webpage and join the reader list   Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?

    Breaking Free from Restrictive Diets: Mindset Shifts for Sustainable Health with Allyson Nicole

    Play Episode Listen Later Aug 9, 2025 19:56


    In this eye-opening episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty sits down with Allyson Nicole—NASM-certified personal trainer, nutrition coach, and probation officer—to uncover the powerful connection between mindset and sustainable health. Allyson shares her personal journey through disordered eating, overtraining, and self-sabotage, and how a single mindset shift helped her break the cycle and rebuild her relationship with food. Learn how to challenge limiting beliefs, escape the trap of all-or-nothing thinking, and start making empowered health choices from a place of self-love, not shame. Whether you're stuck in the binge-restrict loop or tired of starting over every Monday, this episode gives you the mental tools to finally make lasting change. Tune in to gain practical strategies rooted in behavior change theory, psychology, and real-world coaching. About the Guest:Allyson Nicole is a NASM-certified personal trainer, certified nutrition coach, and full-time probation officer. As founder of Allyson Nicole Nutrition, she integrates real-world coaching with behavior change psychology to help individuals break out of restrictive cycles and live a more empowered, balanced life. Key Takeaways : Mindset is the foundation of health—not just a starting point. Allyson explains how most people sabotage their progress due to the all-or-nothing thinking trap. Shifting from a fixed mindset to a growth mindset opens the door to sustainable, non-restrictive health practices that actually work. Allyson shares her journey of overcoming disordered eating by dropping food rules, refusing to weigh herself, and embracing food neutrality—highlighting that dopamine-driven cravings reduce when food loses its “forbidden” label. Her work as a probation officer gives her a unique lens on behavior change. She uses CBT-based tools like the “Thinking Report” to help clients examine their thoughts, emotions, and beliefs objectively. Replacing negative self-talk with empowering scripts—like “I don't do that anymore” or “I'll start now, not tomorrow”—can radically change behavior patterns. Overtraining and under-eating don't lead to long-term success. Instead, coaching should be about helping people find routines that truly fit their lives.   Connect with Allyson Nicole: Instagram, Facebook, TikTok: [@allysoncoaches] Website: www.allysoncoaches.com   Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?DM on PodMatch – Send a message here:https://www.podmatch.com/hostdetailpreview/avik CHECK PODCAST SHOWS & BE A GUEST: Tune to all our 19 podcasts: https://www.podbean.com/podcast-network/healthymindbyavik Subscribe To Newsletter: https://healthymindbyavik.substack.com/ Join Community: https://nas.io/healthymind OUR SERVICES Business Podcast Management – https://ourofferings.healthymindbyavik.com/corporatepodcasting/ Individual Podcast Management – https://ourofferings.healthymindbyavik.com/Podcasting/ Share Your Story With World – https://ourofferings.healthymindbyavik.com/shareyourstory   STAY TUNED AND FOLLOW US!• YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@healthymind-healthylife• Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/healthyminds.pod• Threads – https://www.threads.net/@healthyminds.pod• Medium – https://medium.com/@contentbyavik• Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/podcast.healthymind• LinkedIn – https://www.linkedin.com/in/reemachatterjee/ | https://www.linkedin.com/in/avikchakrabortypodcaster• Pinterest – https://www.pinterest.com/Avikpodhealth/ SHARE YOUR REVIEW Share your Google Review – https://www.podpage.com/bizblend/reviews/new/ Share a video Testimonial – https://famewall.healthymindbyavik.com/   #podmatch #healthymind #healthymindbyavik #mindset #wellnesspodcast #nutritioncoach #bodypositivity #MentalHealthAwareness #growthmindset #fitnesswithoutshame #behaviorchange #storytellingasmedicine #motivation #healingjourney #podcastinglife #newpodcast #personaldevelopment #wellbeing #selfcare #foryou #explorepage #mindfulnessmatters #fitnessjourney #holistichealth #inspirationdaily

    In this powerful episode of Healthy Waves, host Avik Chakraborty dives deep with fitness icon Robert Reames and author Nikki Allen on dismantling harmful diet culture, reclaiming emotional wellness, and finding true health beyond appearances. Robert shares insights from his groundbreaking book Anti-Diet: The Paradigm Has Shifted, revealing why the traditional diet industry fails and how real change must start from within. Nikki opens up about her journey of turning heartbreak into healing, transforming pain into art through her novel Loved You, Hated You. This conversation challenges the myths that health equals thinness and explores how to build unshakable standards of self-care, respect for your body, and lasting emotional resilience. If you've ever felt unseen, unsafe, or stuck in cycles that no longer serve you, this is your invitation to break free and reclaim your power. About the Guests   Robert Reames is a renowned trainer, nutritionist, and author with over 40 years in the health and wellness industry. Known for his celebrity clientele, media appearances, and bestselling books, Robert is shifting the conversation around health to focus on sustainable, inside-out transformation. Nikki Allen is a singer-songwriter turned author of Loved You, Hated You. Her book blends fiction and real emotions to explore love, domestic violence, and self-discovery. Nikki uses storytelling as a tool for healing and inspiring others to do their own “soul surgery.” Key Takeaways : Diet culture is broken: Robert highlights how the diet industry and quick fixes like GLP-1 drugs treat symptoms, not the root causes of poor metabolic health. Inside-out healing: Both guests stress the importance of addressing emotional wounds and building personal standards rather than relying on external validation. The power of "soul surgery": Nikki shares how deep inner work freed her from destructive coping habits and transformed her relationship with food and self-worth.

    Is your inner critic running the show? What if the voice inside your head isn't even yours—but a residue of trauma, stress, or dysfunction? In this eye-opening episode of Healthy Waves, host Avik dives deep into the science behind cellular healing with Claire Martinsen, CEO of Biobloom Injectables. Claire breaks down the truth about NADH and B12—how these molecules work at the mitochondrial level to support energy, mental clarity, emotional regulation, and trauma recovery. We explore how NADH + B12 injections can outperform oral supplements, support therapy and somatic work, and offer real, bioavailable healing—not just hype. Claire shares her personal journey of transformation, including relief from ADHD symptoms, hormonal imbalances, and chronic fatigue—all by supporting her cells instead of suppressing symptoms. This isn't just about wellness trends—it's molecular repair from the ground up. Whether you're a high achiever on the edge of burnout or someone healing from trauma, this episode offers powerful, science-backed insights for real transformation. ABOUT THE GUEST:Claire Martinsen is the CEO of Biobloom Injectables, a science-driven wellness company focused on bioavailable solutions for mental clarity, energy, and healing. With a background in biology and public health, Claire bridges cutting-edge research with practical application, helping people unlock their potential—cell by cell. KEY TAKEAWAYS: NADH (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide + Hydrogen) is a stable, bioavailable form that supports cellular energy (ATP production), brain health, and DNA repair. Unlike NAD+, which needs conversion and loses potency through digestion, NADH IM injections bypass the gut and deliver 100% absorption. Combined with methylated B12, NADH boosts dopamine, serotonin, and oxygenation in the brain—enhancing focus, mood, and nervous system resilience. Claire shares how NADH helped with her ADHD, back pain, gluten intolerance, immune response, and hormonal balance—without side effects. Bioavailable supplements like NADH+B12 complement trauma therapy and somatic work by stabilizing the nervous system and accelerating healing. Biobloom Injectables is committed to accessible wellness grounded in science, with transdermal patches and sublingual formats underway. Claire's mission is rooted in loss—creating this work in honor of her best friend who died by suicide. Her goal is to make mental wellness and biological repair available to all.   CONNECT WITH THE GUEST:Claire Martinson is available on all social platforms under @wheretoclaire.

    Building Emotional Resilience in Kids and Adults: Brian Wardale on Hope, Healing, and Emotional Literacy

    In this episode of Healthy Waves, host Avik Chakraborty speaks with Brian Wardale about building emotional resilience in both children and adults, breaking the stigma around mental health, and addressing topics like hopelessness and suicide with honesty and compassion. Brian shares his powerful personal journey of overcoming deep depression and a life-altering suicide attempt, and how those experiences shaped his work today with the "Survivors of Hopelessness" initiative. The conversation dives into how we can equip children as young as eight with emotional literacy, how parents and schools can model resilience, and why early interventions can save lives. If you care about the mental and emotional well-being of today's youth, this episode is an essential listen. About the Guest:Brian Wardale is the co-founder of Survivors of Hopelessness, an initiative that creates programs and resources to help children and families develop emotional resilience. Through his own lived experience with depression and loss, Brian now advocates for creating safe spaces where young people can talk openly about their feelings and be supported through life's challenges. Key Takeaways: Emotional resilience is a skill that can be taught early, not just a personality trait. Conversations about emotions, suicide, and hopelessness must start at home, just like teaching children how to cross the street. Parents and educators need to model emotional literacy; kids can spot hypocrisy when told to “be resilient” but not shown how. Strong emotions can drive serious decisions—waiting even one more day before acting can be life-saving. Programs like Survivors of Hopelessness bridge the gap between traditional academics and vital emotional survival skills. Small interventions—one trusted adult, one moment of understanding—can dramatically change the course of a child's life.

    Can horror be healing? In this compelling episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty speaks with author Risa Patterson, who shares how her supernatural thriller Firebug channels trauma, grief, and ancestral wounds into creative storytelling. From quitting her full-time design job to navigating imposter syndrome and the world of self-publishing, Risa dives deep into how horror can serve as a metaphor for transformation. Discover how metaphor, emotion, and messy first drafts can ignite true healing and creative freedom. Whether you're a writer, mental health advocate, or someone navigating deep emotions, this episode offers raw insight into reclaiming your story—even the darkest chapters. About the Guest:Risa Patterson is a graphic designer turned full-time writer. She's the author of Firebug, a dark, supernatural thriller that explores generational trauma and emotional repression through horror. With a background in design and a passion for storytelling, Risa brings metaphor, creativity, and psychological depth to her fiction. Key Takeaways : Horror as a Healing Medium: Risa shares how horror fiction like Firebug can surface universal truths like grief, shame, and generational pain through powerful metaphor—monsters, ghosts, and curses are never just what they seem. Unintentional Truths: While she didn't start with the intent to explore trauma, Risa realized after finishing her novel that it reflects her own healing from family patterns and emotional repression. Writing as Emotional Release: Drawing from authors like Anne Lamott (Bird by Bird), she champions the “shitty first draft” and how embracing imperfection allows writers to express the inexpressible. The Courage to Leap: Her decision to quit her job and pursue writing full-time came from trusting her instincts and honoring her voice, even in the face of uncertainty and fear. The Reality of Self-Publishing: Risa debunks the myth that traditional publishing is the only valid path, sharing how she's taking creative control, managing her own book design, and preparing for launch independently.   Connect with the Guest:Website: risapatterson.comTikTok: @risawritesInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/authorasbury/ Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?DM on PodMatchDM Me Here:https://www.podmatch.com/hostdetailpreview/avik CHECK PODCAST SHOWS & BE A GUEST: Tune to all our 19 podcasts: https://www.podbean.com/podcast-network/healthymindbyavik Subscribe To Newsletter: https://healthymindbyavik.substack.com/ Join Community: https://nas.io/healthymind OUR SERVICES: Business Podcast Management - https://ourofferings.healthymindbyavik.com/corporatepodcasting/ Individual Podcast Management - https://ourofferings.healthymindbyavik.com/Podcasting/ Share Your Story With World - https://ourofferings.healthymindbyavik.com/shareyourstory STAY TUNED AND FOLLOW US!Medium: https://medium.com/@contentbyavikYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@healthymindbyavikInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/healthyminds.pod/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/podcast.healthymindLinkedIn Page: https://www.linkedin.com/company/healthymindbyavikLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/avikchakrabortypodcaster/Twitter: https://twitter.com/podhealthclubPinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/Avikpodhealth/ SHARE YOUR REVIEW Share your Google Review - https://www.podpage.com/bizblend/reviews/new/ Share a video testimonial - https://famewall.healthymindbyavik.com/ #podmatch #healthymind #healthymindbyavik #wellness #mentalhealth #traumahealing #writingcommunity #horrorbooks #selfpublishing #emotionalhealth #StorytellingAsMedicine #PodcastLife #PersonalDevelopment #CreativityHeals #MentalHealthAwareness #HealingThroughHorror #authormindset #FirebugNovel #podcasting #newpodcast #writingtherapy #generationaltrauma #creativitymatters #selfbelief #empowerment

    In this compelling episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty sits down with Kenneth Leaver—a serial entrepreneur and founder of Reviv—to explore the unspoken connection between mental health, anxiety, and the physical body. From his intense journey through anxiety attacks during high-stress startup life in Vietnam to discovering how dental biomechanics and simple tools like mouth guards helped him regain control, Kenneth brings a bold, refreshing lens to mental wellness. If you've ever felt like anxiety is running your life—or you're tired of generic advice—this conversation will shift your perspective and offer practical tools. Tune in for powerful insights into burnout, physical health, and how high performers can stay grounded without sacrificing excellence. About the Guest – Kenneth Leaver:Kenneth Leaver is a global strategist and startup leader who has scaled six startups and now leads Reviv, a cutting-edge dental biomechanics brand. He also serves as a fractional COO at a venture-funded solar company. Kenneth brings a unique voice to the mental health conversation, blending hard-earned experience with physical innovation. Key Takeaways : Anxiety is not just emotional—it can be physical. Kenneth shares his story of severe anxiety triggered after dental work, revealing a surprising connection to jaw tension and alignment. A decade-long journey led to Revive, where Kenneth now helps thousands overcome anxiety using flat mouth guards worn during sleep—no therapy, just biomechanics. High performance ≠ burnout. Kenneth juggles multiple roles without anxiety or burnout by focusing on physical recovery, setting boundaries, and avoiding hustle culture. Know your limits. Kenneth reminds high achievers that pushing past physical or mental limits is counterproductive—"Boundaries are not a weakness; they're strategic.” The simplest tools matter. Nature, breath, quiet reflection, and even a $5 night guard can make profound changes in mental health. Understand your anxiety thresholds. A little pressure may boost performance, but excessive anxiety undermines confidence and cognitive function.

    From Fight or Flight to Flow: How Nervous System Healing Transforms Recovery with Greg Vost & Michael Nolan

    Play Episode Listen Later Aug 4, 2025 28:27


    In this deeply grounding episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty is joined by Greg Vost and Michael Nolan co-founders of Embodied Recovery for a transformative conversation on trauma, addiction, and nervous system healing. If you've ever felt like traditional talk therapy or medication wasn't enough, this episode offers a new perspective. Greg and Michael reveal why many people stay stuck in cycles of anxiety, depression, or chronic pain despite doing “everything right.” They share the science and spirit behind their embodied recovery model, how breathwork like Sundo rewires the nervous system, and why emotional healing must be felt in the body—not just thought about. They even guide listeners through a powerful live energy practice. Whether you're navigating mental health struggles or simply seeking more presence in a chaotic world, this episode invites you to reconnect with your inner rhythm. About the Guests:Greg Vost and Michael Nolan are the founders of Embodied Recovery, a cutting-edge treatment center in Silicon Valley. Blending ancient wisdom, modern psychology, 12-step recovery, and the breathwork lineage of Sundo, they offer a holistic path to healing that moves beyond symptom management into embodied transformation. Key Takeaways: The nervous system is the foundation of emotional and physical health. If dysregulated, it can manifest as anxiety, chronic pain, or emotional reactivity. Healing is not just about talking—it requires embodied practices that shift how we feel and act, not just what we think. The breath is a powerful mirror of the mind. Developing a breath practice like Sundo cultivates calm, clarity, and resilience. Embodied Recovery blends daily breath practice, somatic awareness, 12-step support, and emotional unwinding to help people find lasting transformation. Emotional healing is not secondary to physical healing. Chronic emotional stress does show up in the body—and often drives illness or pain. Even a simple practice like mindful tapping and breath can awaken your energetic awareness and begin the healing journey from within. Healing doesn't happen overnight.

Robert shares his incredible journey from being told he would never run or jump again to becoming a decorated track and field athlete, author, and host of the Shut Up and Grind podcast.

    In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty speaks with Jake Falcon, CRPC, founder and CEO of Falcon Wealth Advisors, about redefining retirement and personal development. Jake shares why financial freedom isn't just about numbers on a spreadsheet but about aligning money with purpose and values. He breaks down the importance of intentional living, how to design a retirement that's meaningful, and why clarity about personal values drives both financial confidence and life satisfaction. This conversation will help you think differently about success, personal growth, and how to plan for a life you love at any stage. About the Guest:Jake Falcon, CRPC, is the founder and CEO of Falcon Wealth Advisors, author of Retiring Right, and host of the popular Upticks newsletter and podcast. With over 20 years of experience guiding entrepreneurs, families, and retirees, Jake is known for blending financial planning with purpose-driven coaching to help clients live and retire with clarity and confidence. Key Takeaways (200 words): Retirement isn't a finish line—it's the freedom to choose how you spend your time without obligation. Personal development is crucial for financial confidence; clarity about values provides the foundation for purpose-driven decisions. Defining your purpose starts with identifying your core values and building daily intentions around them. People who transition well into retirement often fill their calendars intentionally, creating structure and avoiding isolation. Investing with intention goes beyond finances—focus on being fully present and aligned with your goals. Coaching is a powerful tool to build awareness, address blind spots, and find fulfillment in both life and work. Leadership requires self-awareness; supporting your team's goals alongside business objectives fosters alignment and growth. Without purpose, wealth alone can lead to unhappiness. Awareness and seeking guidance can break this cycle.   Connect with Jake Falcon:Instagram: https://instagram.com/falconwadvisorsWebsite: Falcon Wealth AdvisorsPodcast: Upticks Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?DM on PodMatch: Send Me a Message Here CHECK PODCAST SHOWS & BE A GUEST: Tune to all our 19 podcasts: Click Here Subscribe to our Newsletter: Click Here Join the Community: Click Here OUR SERVICES Business Podcast Management Individual Podcast Management Share Your Story With World FOLLOW US!

    From Amish Roots to True Freedom: Redefining Strength, Balance, and Leadership with Glenn Beechy

    In this transformative episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty speaks with Glenn Beechy, a construction business owner, coach, and author who has lived through an extraordinary journey. From leaving his Amish home at 17 and carrying anger and resentment, to falling into over a million dollars in debt, and then rebuilding his life with spiritual, emotional, and financial freedom, Glenn's story is powerful and relatable. This conversation dives deep into redefining what true freedom means, cultivating the “never give up” warrior mindset without falling into burnout, and balancing business success with family, faith, and authenticity. Glenn also shares his perspectives on leadership in marriage and life, the importance of boundaries, and how unresolved pain can block personal growth. This episode is a must-listen for anyone seeking resilience, balance, and clarity about how to create a life you genuinely love. About the Guest   Glenn Beechy is a 44-year-old construction business owner celebrating 25 years in business and marriage. A coach, author, and speaker, he empowers men and women to live authentically, balance work with life, and break free from cycles of anger, shame, and financial instability. Glenn leads the Warriors Creed Men's Group and shares inspiration through his website, coaching programs, and YouTube channel. Key Takeaways   True freedom is an internal state: Glenn explains how anger, running away, or overworking can feel liberating at first but can actually become another form of captivity. The warrior mindset has balance: Never giving up is a powerful trait, but Glenn shares how to temper it with compassion, self-awareness, and boundaries to avoid toxic masculinity or burnout. Relationships and finances are connected: Glenn's experiences show that when marriages or core relationships are unstable, finances often follow, and vice versa. Boundaries create freedom: Intentional scheduling and clear agreements with loved ones help prevent overwork and disconnection. Healing the past transforms the future: Glenn encourages listeners to face unresolved pain and addictions that quietly erode confidence and leadership.

    Mindshift Over Mindset: Reclaiming Your Authentic Self with 'Polish Peter' Kolat

    Play Episode Listen Later Jul 20, 2025 22:46


    In this eye-opening episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, we dive deep into the truth behind personal development with transformational coach and author 'Polish Peter' Kolat. Known for his book Authentic Self Rebirth and the creator of the 7 Human Drives framework, Peter dismantles the traditional “mindset” narrative and introduces a more visceral, human, and transformative approach—Mindshift. From healing deep-rooted trauma to rewiring behavior through journaling, somatic work, and emotional release, Peter shares practical tools that go beyond surface-level hacks. We talk about the power of language, the science of neuroplasticity, toxic positivity, and how inner work, when done right, can lead to lasting personal liberation. Whether you're a high achiever feeling spiritually flatlined or someone tired of performative self-help, this conversation will shift how you view growth, success, and authenticity. About the Guest   'Polish Peter' Kolat is a transformational coach, speaker, and immigrant entrepreneur who overcame language and cultural barriers to build a thriving legacy in the U.S. He's the author of Authentic Self Rebirth and the mind behind the 7 Human Drives framework. Peter is committed to helping people let go of blind agreements and return to their authentic selves with clarity, purpose, and truth. Key Takeaways : Peter challenges the term mindset, suggesting we need mindshifts instead—a powerful reframing that invites flexibility and growth. Language shapes our reality: the way we talk to ourselves can either trap us or liberate us. Traditional self-help tools like affirmations often fall flat without engaging the body and emotion. His 4D method—journaling, visualization, somatic shifts, and emotional work—rewires trauma on a cellular level. Inner work is not navel-gazing; it's a return to your core self—not becoming someone new, but remembering who you really are. Real transformation isn't about stacking habits—it's about shedding the false layers. Peter's personal story, from divorce and burnout to reinvention and impact, is a living example of breakthrough after breakdown.   Connect with 'Polish Peter'   Kolat Website: www.myauthenticrebirth.comGet the first two chapters of Authentic Self Rebirth free via his website.

    Ayurveda for Burnout Recovery and Busy Lives: Healing Modern Stress with Dr. Simmi Chopra

    Play Episode Listen Later Jul 19, 2025 19:43


    In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, we sit down with Dr. Simmi Chopra—an Ayurvedic doctor, molecular biologist, and founder of Sidhayur NYC—to explore how 5,000-year-old Ayurvedic principles can powerfully support today's fast-paced lifestyles. Whether you're a student burning the midnight oil, a startup founder running on caffeine, or someone dealing with chronic burnout, this episode unpacks how ancient healing meets modern demands. Dr. Simmi shares real-world tools, including Ayurvedic hacks for digestion, stress regulation, and sleep optimization. Learn how to make Ayurveda work in your busy routine—without overhauling your life. About the Guest:Dr. Simmi Chopra is an Ayurvedic Doctor, Molecular Biologist, and founder of Sidhayur in New York City. She integrates ancient Ayurvedic wisdom with modern biology to help clients manage chronic stress, hormonal imbalances, digestive disorders, and burnout. She's passionate about translating deep-rooted Indian healing into practical habits for busy professionals across the globe. Key Takeaways : Ayurveda isn't about massive lifestyle overhauls—small shifts like cutting inflammatory foods or improving digestion can spark major health changes. Common triggers for imbalance: late nights, processed foods, excessive caffeine, and ignoring your body's early warning signs like heartburn or fatigue. For stressed professionals or students, Dr. Simmi recommends three simple but powerful Ayurvedic practices: sipping digestive teas, short breathing practices (pranayama), and avoiding your unique food triggers based on dosha imbalances. Ayurvedic therapies like Shirodhara can calm the nervous system even for those short on time. Digestion is central—what you can digest matters more than what you eat. Ayurveda teaches that transformation happens in small, consistent steps—like shifting bedtime by 15 minutes per lunar cycle to restore circadian balance.

    In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty welcomes Dr. Nona Djavid—a renowned mindset expert and entrepreneur—who shares her unconventional yet deeply transformative approach to success: the one-week-a-month lifestyle. This conversation breaks down how high achievers can rewire their subconscious mind, regulate their nervous system, and create sustainable energy without subscribing to the burnout culture. From escaping cultural norms in Iran to building multiple 7-figure businesses in the U.S., Dr. Nona's story is proof that success doesn't have to come at the cost of health or joy. If you've ever felt trapped in hustle culture or are looking to align purpose with profit, this episode is your blueprint. About the Guest:Dr. Nona Djavid is a mindset strategist, serial entrepreneur, and creator of the One-Week-a-Month Lifestyle. With a background in neurology and a track record of building multiple 7-figure businesses, she now helps high-level leaders create quantum shifts by aligning nervous system health, mindset mastery, and energetic presence. Key Takeaways : Dr. Nona explains how her move from Iran to the U.S. shaped her beliefs around success and struggle, and how she broke free from the hustle mentality. Her concept of the One-Week-a-Month Lifestyle started with the intention to reduce work hours while increasing impact, profitability, and personal freedom. Success, she says, doesn't need to be earned through suffering. In fact, subconscious beliefs often block people from receiving abundance and rest. Rewiring the nervous system to feel safe in expansion is key to accessing new levels of joy, wealth, and freedom. Visualization, embodiment, and deep identity work helped her scale her businesses while working part-time. She redefines success as the desire to help others and acknowledging how far you've come, rather than chasing endless future goals.   Connect with Dr. Nona Djavid:Message her directly on Instagram or any social platform using her name: Nona DjavidMention Healthy Mind, Healthy Life and receive her exclusive 90-minute training on the 4 Steps to Quantum Leap—for free.

From the damaging effects of silence and betrayal to the step-by-step process of reconciliation, Branch lays out a practical, soul-rooted framework for mending what's been broken—without needing therapy. We dive deep into the 7 steps of repair, the 12 life lessons we all face, and the shift from insecurity to spiritual maturity. Whether you're battling a broken relationship, struggling with trust, or seeking to lead with authenticity, this episode offers a clear compass.

His mission is to guide others from confusion to clarity by helping them build moral and ethical integrity through life's hardest lessons. KEY TAKEAWAYS : Trust is the backbone of sustainable relationships, whether personal, professional, or community-based. Once broken, it's difficult—but not impossible—to rebuild.

    The Power of Frequency: 7 Reasons Behind Business Stagnation with Angela Thomas

    Play Episode Listen Later Jul 18, 2025 24:30


    Is your business doing everything “right” but still not growing? You might be missing the most overlooked factor—frequency. In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty is joined by Angela Thomas, Europe's leading scaling strategist and founder of Angel Success Consulting, to uncover the energetic layer of entrepreneurship. Angela breaks down the 7 hidden reasons behind stagnation that strategy alone can't fix—especially the invisible force of personal frequency. From her own journey of leaving a thriving business in Germany to scaling in Dubai, Angela shares how desperation energy, subconscious beliefs, and frequency misalignment can silently sabotage even the most well-planned ventures. Tune in for a soul-aligned, business-smart conversation on how frequency impacts cash flow, leadership, and client attraction. About the Guest:Angela Thomas is the founder of Angel Success Consulting based in Dubai. Starting in the beauty industry, she rose to become Europe's #1 scaling expert. She's the visionary behind programs like SkillonAir, Skillonize, and Dubai Docs Fast Track. Angela now helps entrepreneurs and founders grow legacy businesses by aligning strategy with energy. Key Takeaways: Frequency drives results: No amount of automation, funnels, or scaling will work if you operate from fear, desperation, or scarcity. Angela's real story: Despite having every system in place in Dubai, she faced setbacks because her energetic frequency repelled success. Once she shifted internally, her business scaled to 2 million in under 6 months. The 7 reasons for stagnation include: Misconception about scaling (it's not just selling more) Non-scalable business model Uncommitted or misaligned employees Attracting wrong-fit clients (often due to discounts) Inefficient systems and AI underuse Poor marketing mindset—visibility matters Misaligned offer design The missing link is your frequency—it's what subconsciously communicates whether your brand is trustworthy, aligned, and attractive. Practical action: Angela shares a free booklet on these 7 stagnation reasons plus a frequency audit tool.   Connect with Angela: LinkedIn: Angela Thomas Website: https://www.angelsuccess.consulting/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/angelsuccess_consulting/ Book a free strategy call: Reach out via DM on her platforms Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?DM Me Here: https://www.podmatch.com/hostdetailpreview/avik CHECK PODCAST SHOWS & BE A GUEST: Tune to all our 19 podcasts: https://www.podbean.com/podcast-network/healthymindbyavik Subscribe To Newsletter: https://healthymindbyavik.substack.com/ Join Community: https://nas.io/healthymind OUR SERVICES: Business Podcast Management: https://ourofferings.healthymindbyavik.com/corporatepodcasting/ Individual Podcast Management: https://ourofferings.healthymindbyavik.com/Podcasting/ Share Your Story With the World: https://ourofferings.healthymindbyavik.com/shareyourstory STAY TUNED AND FOLLOW US!

    Reclaiming Power Through Fiction: From Political Trauma to Bold Storytelling with NG Avant

    In this deeply moving episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Sana sits down with NG Avant, a former municipal government professional turned indie author, to explore how fiction became her sword of truth. After experiencing a very public political storm and systemic harassment within Canada's political ecosystem, NG used storytelling as a form of healing, advocacy, and rebellion. Her Capital City series draws from personal and societal injustices to create emotionally rich narratives that reflect the realities many women endure but rarely speak aloud. From discussing the toxic culture in politics to the power of modeling strength for her daughters, NG's journey is a powerful reminder that healing can begin on the page. Tune in for a riveting conversation on trauma, transformation, and the unapologetic voice of a woman reclaiming her truth—one fictional character at a time. About the Guest:NG Avant is a Canadian indie author, intuitive, and former municipal government insider. She is the creator of the Capital City series—fiction that pulls no punches, rooted in real-life political trauma and laced with hope, courage, and truth. A single mom of three daughters, NG's mission is to uplift women's voices through fiction that heals, empowers, and challenges. Key Takeaways (SEO Optimized): NG Avant turned her political trauma into purpose by writing fiction based on lived experiences, systemic sexism, and public injustice. Her Capital City series was born as a cathartic outlet while reporting misconduct, eventually transforming into a compelling narrative that blends truth and imagination. Through her character Calista Caldwell, NG creates a parallel reality where justice is served and healing is possible—something her real-life experience did not offer. Writing fiction gave NG the creative freedom to rewrite the ending and offer readers validation, visibility, and hope, especially for women silenced by systems of power. Her books are not for escapism but to mirror society and empower readers with emotional resonance and realism. NG's advocacy continues beyond books. She fights for legislative changes in Canada and models resilience, strength, and authenticity for her daughters. Her upcoming fantasy series—set to release this Halloween—will feature witchy feminist themes with intuitive, spiritual layers. NG encourages everyone to tell their story, whether through art, journaling, or fiction.

    In this powerful episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty sits down with elite behavioral coach and ex-Navy weapons tech Clay Moffat, author of The Trust Trap. Together, they dismantle the myth of confidence and reveal why commitment—not confidence—is the true foundation for trust, transformation, and self-leadership. If you've ever found yourself stuck in burnout, people-pleasing, or performance mode, this conversation will cut through the noise and call you back to your own authority.   About the Guest:Clay Moffat is a high-performance coach, former Navy weapons technician, and the unapologetically direct author of The Trust Trap. He helps elite performers, leaders, and founders navigate betrayal, self-sabotage, and the illusion of confidence by teaching how to rebuild internal trust and commit to uncomfortable growth. Known for his no-fluff coaching and psychological insights, Clay's mission is to wake people up to their own patterns and reclaim their power.   Key Takeaways: Confidence is emotional and unreliable—commitment is structural and sustainable. Most people wait to “feel ready,” but action creates confidence—not the other way around. The nervous system defaults to familiarity—even if it's destructive—due to evolutionary wiring. Outsourcing sanity looks like over-validation, avoidance, and attachment to external systems or roles. Leaders burning out often hide behind performance, micromanagement, and a fear of slowing down. Rebuilding trust in yourself starts by showing up consistently, not waiting for a perfect moment.   Connect with Clay Moffat: Email: go@claymoffat.com X (formerly Twitter): @MOFFATCLAY   Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?DM me on PodMatch: DM Me Here Tune in to all our 15 podcast shows:Healthy Mind by Avik Podcast Network Subscribe To Newsletter:https://healthymindbyavik.substack.com/ Join Our Community:https://nas.io/healthymind   Stay Tuned and Follow Us:YouTube – Healthy Mind YouTube ChannelInstagram – @healthyminds.podThreads – @healthyminds.podFacebook – facebook.com/podcast.healthymindLinkedIn – Reema Chatterjee | Avik Chakraborty #podmatch #healthymind #HealthyMindByAvik #wellness #MentalHealthAwareness #StorytellingAsMedicine #PodcastLife #PersonalDevelopment #ConsciousLiving #GrowthMindset #MindfulnessMatters #VoicesOfUnity #InspirationDaily

Katie shares the story behind her memoir When the Universe Holds Your Hair Back, a raw and honest recount of surviving childhood abuse, addiction, and emotional numbness. The conversation dives into the emotional terrain of therapeutic psychedelics, generational patterns of emotional suppression, and the fine line between victimhood and truth-telling. Katie reminds us that healing is messy but possible—and that surrender isn't weakness, but strength in disguise. About the Guest:Katie Baker is a trauma survivor, writer, and speaker whose memoir When the Universe Holds Your Hair Back reveals a deeply personal journey through abuse, addiction, and ultimately healing. She courageously shares how therapeutic psychedelics, emotional integration, and energy work helped her reclaim her worth and identity after decades of numbing and perfectionism. Katie is also the founder of Peace & Fire Healing, where she supports others on their path to emotional wholeness. Key Takeaways: Rock bottom moments often lead to radical breakthroughs. Healing from trauma may require unconventional tools like psychedelics, used safely and with intention. Emotional suppression, especially among mothers and women, is deeply ingrained—but it can be unlearned. Resilience can look like surrender.

From recognizing coercive control to navigating family court without a lawyer, this episode breaks down how survivors can shift from feeling powerless to becoming fierce legal self-advocates.   About the Guest:Lisa Johnson is the co-founder of Been There Got Out and a certified domestic violence advocate whose personal legal case is now cited in law journals. She is a speaker, coach, and educator helping individuals trapped in high-conflict divorces and legal abuse scenarios. Along with her partner Chris, she guides others through strategic communication, parenting plans, and court preparation via their coaching programs and podcast.   Key Takeaways: Legal abuse is when the court system is weaponized by abusers to control or financially drain victims. Lisa spent over a decade in court and ultimately represented herself due to financial strain. Preparation, emotional regulation, and strategic communication are essential for navigating court successfully. Her course From Fear to Fierce in Family Court empowers others with tools to advocate for themselves. The first step in reclaiming power is education—understanding your rights and naming the abuse.   Connect with Lisa Johnson:Website: https://beentheregotout.comDiscovery Call Signup: Available on the websiteSocial Media & YouTube: Search Been There Got OutPodcast: Been There Got Out on all platforms   Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?DM Me Here: https://www.podmatch.com/hostdetailpreview/avikTune to all our 15 podcasts: https://www.podbean.com/podcast-network/healthymindbyavikSubscribe To Newsletter: https://healthymindbyavik.substack.com/Join Community: https://nas.io/healthymind   Stay Tuned And Follow Us!YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@healthymind-healthylifeInstagram – https://www.instagram.com/healthyminds.podThreads – https://www.threads.net/@healthyminds.podFacebook – https://www.facebook.com/podcast.healthymindLinkedIn – https://www.linkedin.com/in/reemachatterjee/ | https://www.linkedin.com/in/avikchakrabortypodcaster #podmatch #healthymind #healthymindbyavik #MentalHealthAwareness #LegalAbuse #DivorceSupport #CoerciveControl #SurvivorSupport #DomesticViolenceAwareness #FamilyCourtReform #MindfulnessMatters #VoicesOfUnity #InspirationDaily

He's the CEO of Freedom Chat, the most private messaging app in the world, and the author of three books, including How to Achieve and Receive Anything You Want.
