Back in the early 90s, fear of aliens was at an all-time high with the release of The X-Files and Fire in the Sky. One of those was a lot more successful than the other, but Fire in the Sky still left a lasting impression / trauma on many who saw it. What is the true story behind Travis Walton's disappearance? How and why is it different from the movie? Do any of us believe in visitors from another world? Why don't we hear reports of alien abductions anymore? Was M.T. Motors the inspiration for Welland restaurant M.T. Bellies? We want to believe on this week's episode of the Film Junk Podcast.

Welcome to a new episode of ASMR Sleep Recordings. In this episode, you will hear hard rainstorms for better focus. Improve your health and happiness.The sound you hear in this episode creates a calm atmosphere and at the same time blocks out disturbing noises. This will help you de-stress, unwind, and rest. Enjoy two hours of relaxing sounds to help you relax, focus, study and fall asleep.About ASMR Sleep Recordings:The purpose of ASMR Sleep Recording is to help you sleep and concentrate better. This particular episode lasts two hours and has no ads in the middle, so you won't be woken up or disturbed while focusing or relaxing. When you listen to ASMR Sleep Recordings, you can lock your phone, so you won't get any bothersome stimuli from notifications and other sounds from your phone. You can switch between apps while studying or working without pausing the ambient sound.About our sounds:Water creates a natural white noise. Infused with the relaxing quality of nature and the sound-masking properties of white noise, listening to running water is an ideal way to turn off all the stressful things life brings, and to de-stress. Some of our most popular sounds include a river, flowing creek, babbling brook, gentle waves on a lake, and a bamboo fountain. Rain also creates a natural white noise. Infused with the relaxing quality of nature and the sound-masking properties of white noise, listening to rain is an ideal way to switch off all the stressful things life brings and to de-stress. Some of our most popular sounds are rain on an umbrella, hailstorms, hard rain, soft rain, gentle rain, wind and rain, rain on a car.White noise helps babies and children to get a better and deeper night's sleep. This is because external sounds are masked by the noise. With white noise in the background, your child will not hear annoying cars driving by or dogs barking in bed. This allows your little one to sleep better. And it also saves you as a parent a lot of hours!Pink noise is more common in nature than you might expect. It can be compared to continuous rainfall or wind. In addition to white noise, pink noise is also increasing in popularity, especially in business environments. Because it can increase productivity, concentration and creativity.Brown noise can be compared to waves of the sea, a river current, strong winds or the sound of thunder during a storm. Like pink noise, brown noise is very similar to white noise. However, the frequencies have been lowered even further and a lot more concentrated. This gives it a rougher/coarse tone than pink noise. It sounds a bit deeper and a bit bass-like. The benefits of brown noise are the same as the other types of noise. It provides relaxation, increased focus and improved deep sleep.DISCLAIMER: Be aware that loud noises can damage your hearing. If you can't carry on a conversation without raising your voice while playing one of our spheres, the sound may be too loud for your ears. Do not place the speakers directly next to a baby's ears.

Welcome back! After the rigmarole (kids, drivers, people, food); Ron has a superhero alter ego trivia test for us; Chris wonders what we would have done other than Fire and EMS.

You say yes when you mean no.You smile through disrespect. You swallow words that deserve to be spoken. You let people cross lines you didn't even know you were allowed to draw.And then you wonder why your body aches in places medicine can't explain. Why exhaustion isn't fixed by rest. Why resentment builds in spaces you can't name.Here's the truth they didn't tell you: Anger is not the problem. The suppression of anger is the problem.You were taught that good people don't get mad. That anger is destructive. That keeping the peace is more important than keeping yourself whole.So you buried something vital. You buried your RIGHTEOUS RAGE CIRCUIT — the critical system in your brain designed to protect you, to say no more, to draw the sacred line.But rage isn't what they told you it was.At its root, rage is passion. It is the fire that says: I matter. My needs are real. I deserve to take up space.And when you bury that fire, you don't extinguish it. You just force it underground where it burns differently — as chronic pain, as autoimmune flare-ups, as depression that no amount of gratitude journaling can touch.Let me explain how this works neurologically.Your brain runs a system — the rage circuit — rooted in your amygdala and hypothalamus. When activated, it releases adrenaline and cortisol. It sharpens your focus. It mobilizes your body. It prepares you to protect what matters.In its healthy expression, this is the energy of boundaries. Of assertiveness. Of passion that builds rather than destroys.If anger is allowed to flow appropriately, it does its job and moves through.If anger is suppressed chronically, it doesn't disappear. It rewires your nervous system into a state of constant, silent defense.Your body stays tight. Your jaw clenches without you noticing. Your shoulders carry weight that isn't yours. And over time, the suppression itself becomes the wound.Here's how the vow forms: If expressing anger was punished in your early environment — if a raised voice meant danger, if asserting yourself led to abandonment, if conflict taught you that feeling strongly equals being unsafe — your brain made a deal.Suppress the fire. Keep the peace.Disappear if necessary.The internal dialogue cement unconscious vows like … - I must suppress my anger - It's dangerous to be assertive - I must avoid conflict at all costs to be invisible This is your operating system running beneath everything — your relationships, your career, compounding your body's chronic tension.These vows were wise when they very much did feel like protection. They kept you safe in environments that couldn't hold your full power.But you are no longer that small. And the fire does not have to stay buried.I want to be very clear about something: Healthy anger is not violence. It is vitality.It is the part of you that refuses to betray yourself one more time. It is the energy that says this far, no further. It is the force that protects what you love — including yourself.If you've been taught that anger makes you a bad person, then you've been taught to abandon yourself at the first sign of discomfort.And that is not spiritual. That is not evolved. It's just another way of shutting down and disappearing.FLIP IT.Instead, gently turn toward your heart—where the hurt still lives and the lingering anger quietly simmers.I created this 10-minute audio journey to help you meet the part of yourself that carries this fire. Not to unleash it recklessly, but to restore it as a source of strength, clarity, and healthy boundaries.In this frequency-based experience, we explore The Fire of Passion—the RAGE circuit that fuels your assertiveness, courage, and ability to protect what matters.If you've ever struggled to say “no,” stand up for yourself, or express anger without shame, this holds the key.The immersion supports you in:* Releasing chronic people-pleasing and self-abandonment* Reconnecting with healthy anger as a source of vitality* Softening stored tension in the body* Building nervous system safety around assertiveness* Reclaiming your personal power—without aggressionEasily Listen Here. This journey was co-created with our resident intuitive guide, who masterfully works with the 7 emotive circuits that shape your reality. The frequency-based design creates spaciousness in your nervous system—so your natural curiosity can return, free from pressure or performance.After you listen, I invite you to explore the unconscious vows that may still be keeping your fire contained.For just $7/month, you'll receive all 5 guides plus the complete 5-Layer Trauma-Informed healing process.This isn't about becoming more aggressive.It's about coming home to the full spectrum of your aliveness—where healthy anger is no longer the problem…but the power that finally finds its way back to you.And that is the bravest kind of beginning.

Join us as Ocean House owner and award-winning author Deborah Goodrich Royce has a conversation with New York Times Bestselling author Katherine Center about her new book, The Shippers. Author Bio: BookPage calls Katherine Center “the reigning queen of comfort reads.” She's the New York Times bestselling author of over half a dozen books, including How to Walk Away, Things You Save in a Fire, and What You Wish For. Katherine writes laugh-and-cry books about how life knocks us down—and how we get back up. She's been compared to both Jane Austen and Nora Ephron, and the Dallas Morning News calls her stories, “satisfying in the most soul-nourishing way.” Her books have made countless Best-Of lists, including RealSimple's Best Books of 2020, Amazon's Top 100 Books of 2019, Goodreads' Best Books of the Year, and many more. Bestselling author Emily Henry calls her summer 2022 book, The Bodyguard, “a shot of pure joy.” The movie adaptation of Katherine's novel The Lost Husband (starring Josh Duhamel) hit #1 on Netflix, and her novel Happiness for Beginners is now a Netflix original starring Ellie Kemper. Katherine lives in her hometown of Houston, Texas, with her husband, two kids, and their fluffy-but-fierce dog. Book Summary: She wants him to help her woo someone else. Genius. Foolproof. Can't go wrong. After a lifetime of being bad at love, JoJo Burton vows to solve her intimacy issues once and for all at her sister's destination wedding on a cruise ship. Armed with pop psychology, she diagnoses herself with a fixation on the neighborhood guy who was her first crush and first kiss (and who just happens to be a newly-divorced wedding guest). Determined to woo him for closure, she ropes in her childhood bestie, Cooper Watts, as her wingman. Cooper: who RSVPed no, but showed up anyway. Cooper: who moved to London without a word four years ago. Cooper: who broke her heart. Shipboard antics abound in this witty, heart-tugging, childhood-friends-to-lovers romance, as JoJo and Cooper team up, fake flirt, slow dance, share a cabin, sing duets, get jealous, answer long-held questions, and finally, at last, discover truths about each other that will change everything.   For more information about Katherine Center, visit katherinecenter.com, and for more on Deborah Goodrich Royce and her new release, Best Boy, along with information about the Ocean House Author Series, visit deborahgoodrichroyce.com

In this passionate sermon titled 'Shipwrecked and Shaken, but I Still Built a Fire,' the speaker draws inspiration from the Apostle Paul's journey through storms and shipwrecks, urging listeners to persevere through life's trials. With fervent encouragement, the sermon emphasizes the power of faith in adversity, encouraging believers to 'build a fire' of worship and resilience even when faced with challenges like betrayal, brokenness, and the 'snakes' that emerge during times of spiritual revival. The message encourages the congregation to shake off negativity, embrace their anointing, and trust in God's unwavering purpose for their lives, reminding them that their journey, despite being fraught with difficulties, leads to divine victory and purpose.

Bible StudyDon't just take our word for it . . . take His! We would encourage you to spend time examining the following Scriptures that shaped this sermon: .Sermon OutlineJesus prepares his disciples for missionWhat Jesus wants to give usWhat Jesus wants us to expectWhat Jesus wants to do through usSermon QuestionsNavigating Cultural Pressures. The sermon describes how cultural pressure points—for example, “hustle culture," the Digital Revolution, "intensive parenting”—have thinned our capacity to sit in silence and meaningfully connect with an ancient way of life like the way of Jesus. Which of these (or other) cultural shifts do you feel most "pummeled" by in your daily life, and how does it affect your ability to engage with your Jesus and your church family?Developing the Shepherd's Perspective. Jesus looked at the "harassed and helpless" and saw “ripe fruit clamoring to be picked.” When you look at the people in your life, do you tend to see problems to be avoided, or an opportunity share the love of Christ? What is one practical way you can ask God to "clear your eyes" to see people as He does this week?More than "Good, Nice, and Happy.” To the extent the church has seen its job as making people "good, nice, and happy,” the church has failed to wrestle with darkness, suffering, and brokenness. How can we, as a small group, move beyond "niceness" to support one another through dark times? How might we use the psalms of lament (e.g., Psalms 13, 22, 44, 88, 130)?Expecting the Unexpected in Mission. Jesus suggests that while some who are religiously self-satisfied may reject his message, the "afflicted"—the used, abused, and reviled—often receive it with joy. Have you ever been surprised by who was open to hearing about your faith versus who was hostile? How does thinking of mission as "Jesus doing His thing through us" change how you feel about the possibility of being rejected?Resources ConsultedErasmo Leiva-Merikakis,Fire of Mercy, Heart of the Word: Meditations on the Gospel According to St. Matthew (Ignatius, 1996)Peter Leithart, "Jesus as Israel: The Typological Structure of Matthew's Gospel"Christian Smith, Why Religion Went Obsolete: The Demise of Traditional Faith in America (Oxford, 2026)R.J.

Lady and The Irredeemable Shag find their joy celebrating a pivotal era of classic UNCANNY X-MEN as Chris Claremont turns the team's status quo upside down and assembles a new team that will become the legendary Outback X-Men! The journey begins with Psylocke's introduction to the mutant universe in NEW MUTANTS ANNUAL #2, followed by Longshot's first encounter with the X-Men in X-MEN ANNUAL #10. From there, Psylocke earns her place on the team in UNCANNY X-MEN #213, while Dazzler joins the ranks in #214. Then, in UNCANNY X-MEN #217-218, these new additions begin to come together as a true team. Finally, Havok makes his long-awaited return to the X-Men in UNCANNY X-MEN #219. Featuring stories by Chris Claremont and stunning artwork from Alan Davis, Art Adams, Barry Windsor-Smith, Butch Guice, and Marc Silvestri! 00:00:25 - Introductions 00:08:20 - Guest's origin with the X-Men 00:20:35 - Guest's favorite X-Men eras and characters 00:31:50 - New Mutants Annual #2 discussion 01:00:55 - X-Men Annual #10 discussion 01:19:15 - Uncanny X-Men #213 & 214 discussion 02:00:50 - Uncanny X-Men #217 & 218 discussion 03:01:25 - Uncanny X-Men #219 discussion 03:11:50 - Sign off Have a question or comment?

Ranking second on the 2026 World Watch List, Somalia remains one of the most dangerous countries in the world for followers of Jesus. Public Christian worship is forbidden; conversion from Islam is illegal; and the militant terrorist group, Al-Shabaab, continues its violent campaign to eliminate Christianity – openly executing anyone suspected of having faith in Jesus. In the midst of this intense persecution, God is powerfully at work. Through the ministry of Somalia Christian TV, countless Somalis are hearing the Gospel, and thereby encountering Jesus for the first time. The media ministry, led by former Somali Muslims Shino and Shania Gabo, is reaching deep into Somali communities with the hope, truth and life-changing message of God's salvation through Christ. During this episode of Closer to the Fire, podcast host Greg Musselman is joined by Shino and Shania who will be sharing their remarkable testimonies. In addition to revealing the tremendous impact that this couple's growing media outreach is having on so many lives in Somalia, the interview will also address the real dangers they continue to face because of their courageous faith.

Welcome to a new episode of ASMR Sleep Recordings. In this episode, you will hear hard wind and rain. Improve your health and happiness.The sound you hear in this episode creates a calm atmosphere and at the same time blocks out disturbing noises. This will help you de-stress, unwind, and rest. Enjoy two hours of relaxing sounds to help you relax, focus, study and fall asleep.About ASMR Sleep Recordings:The purpose of ASMR Sleep Recording is to help you sleep and concentrate better. This particular episode lasts two hours and has no ads in the middle, so you won't be woken up or disturbed while focusing or relaxing. When you listen to ASMR Sleep Recordings, you can lock your phone, so you won't get any bothersome stimuli from notifications and other sounds from your phone. You can switch between apps while studying or working without pausing the ambient sound.About our sounds:Water creates a natural white noise. Infused with the relaxing quality of nature and the sound-masking properties of white noise, listening to running water is an ideal way to turn off all the stressful things life brings, and to de-stress. Some of our most popular sounds include a river, flowing creek, babbling brook, gentle waves on a lake, and a bamboo fountain. Rain also creates a natural white noise. Infused with the relaxing quality of nature and the sound-masking properties of white noise, listening to rain is an ideal way to switch off all the stressful things life brings and to de-stress. Some of our most popular sounds are rain on an umbrella, hailstorms, hard rain, soft rain, gentle rain, wind and rain, rain on a car.White noise helps babies and children to get a better and deeper night's sleep. This is because external sounds are masked by the noise. With white noise in the background, your child will not hear annoying cars driving by or dogs barking in bed. This allows your little one to sleep better. And it also saves you as a parent a lot of hours!Pink noise is more common in nature than you might expect. It can be compared to continuous rainfall or wind. In addition to white noise, pink noise is also increasing in popularity, especially in business environments. Because it can increase productivity, concentration and creativity.Brown noise can be compared to waves of the sea, a river current, strong winds or the sound of thunder during a storm. Like pink noise, brown noise is very similar to white noise. However, the frequencies have been lowered even further and a lot more concentrated. This gives it a rougher/coarse tone than pink noise. It sounds a bit deeper and a bit bass-like. The benefits of brown noise are the same as the other types of noise. It provides relaxation, increased focus and improved deep sleep.DISCLAIMER: Be aware that loud noises can damage your hearing. If you can't carry on a conversation without raising your voice while playing one of our spheres, the sound may be too loud for your ears. Do not place the speakers directly next to a baby's ears. If you have trouble hearing or ringing in your ears, stop listening to the white noise immediately and see an audiologist or your doctor. The sounds provided by ASMR Sleep Recordings are for entertainment purposes only and are not a treatment for sleep disorders or tinnitus. Consult your doctor if you regularly have severe sleeping problems, experience fitful/restless sleep or feel tired during the day.ASMR Sleep Recordings is the white noise and nature sounds podcast to help you sleep, study or soothe a baby. ASMR Sleep Recordings has uploaded more than 400+ episodes in the 4 years that the podcast has been online. You can listen to all episodes of the podcast on your favorite podcast platform. People use white noise for sleep, focus, sound masking or relaxation. This podcast has the sound for you, whether you're using white noise to study, to soothe a baby with cramps, to fall asleep, or to just enjoy a quiet moment. You don't need to buy a white noise machine if you can listen to these sounds for free.

In this episode, we are uplifting some of the ideas in Elspeth Hay's remarkable book,   Feed Us with Trees: Nuts and the Future of Food.  After starting with Sara Jolena offering a summary of some of the big ideas in the book, we move into a conversation with author Elspeth Hay and a few of the many people whom Elspeth has mentioned in the book: Ron Reed, Karuk tribal member and cultural biologist; Joanna Brooks, settler scholar and author of Why We Left; and Gale Pettifer, commoner and scholar of the New Forest in England. Together they trace a set of histories that turn out to be deeply entangled: Indigenous land dispossession in California, the enclosure of the English commons, the suppression of cultural burning, the erasure of ancestral foodways — and the folk songs, forest laws, and buried memories that survived all of it. Timestamps0:00  —  Welcome & introduction: Sara Jolena introduces the episode, inspired by Elspeth Hay's book Feed Us with Trees, and the “no farm, no food” myth it challenges.2:51  —  Guest introductions: Elspeth introduces Ron Reed (Karuk Nation, cultural biologist), Joanna Brooks (Why We Left), and Gale Pettifer (New Forest commoner and commons scholar).5:44  —  Ron Reed's opening story: childhood memories of harvesting acorns, mushrooms, and salmon; the Klamath Dam removal; and the ongoing fight to restore Indigenous fire practices with public trust objectives.9:20  —  Gale Pettifer on the New Forest: a thousand years of contested common rights, Norman forest law, and what it means to still practice ancient commoning in the 21st century.12:58  —  Joanna Brooks on settler scholarship and song: tracing her European ancestry through folk ballads, a grandmother's lullaby, and a plate of hazelnuts at the British Museum that the curators couldn't explain.18:29  —  Fire across continents: Elspeth connects her experience of gorse burning debates in the New Forest to Ron's work on cultural burning — the same argument, on opposite sides of the Atlantic.30:58  —  Dragons, sacred fire, and colonial memory: a discussion of how fire moved from sacred to feared in Anglo-Saxon and English tradition, illustrated by the New Forest dragon legend and the introduction of Christianity.34:31  —  Songs of grief and displacement: Joanna traces the emotional record of enclosure through English murder ballads — songs about hazel trees, beaver hats, and families starving off the land — and what they reveal about why colonial settlers “lost their minds.”43:12  —  Magna Carta, common law, and the 1877 New Forest Act: Gale traces how brutal Norman forest law paradoxically became the foundation of commoners' rights, and how public outcry saved the New Forest from privatization.47:33  —  The allotment parallel: Elspeth draws a striking connection between English allotment gardens and the U.S. federal allotment system used to break up Indigenous tribal lands — the same word, the same colonial logic, on both sides of the ocean.1:10:42  —  Cycles of colonization and reverse transmission: Sara Jolena traces how colonial practices — from plantation timekeeping to fire suppression — were exported back to Europe, and the importance of distinguishing imperial forces from common people's forces within every culture.1:16:11  —  Closing round: guests share what is shifting now — prescribed fire training in Wellfleet, MA; intergenerational transfer of fire ecology knowledge; the joy of reconnecting with the New Forest through free-roaming ponies — and an invitation to listeners to bring these ideas into their communities.Elspeth HayBook: Feed us with treesWebsiteBioInstaRon ReedArticle about Ron Reed - How Karuk ceremonial leader Ron Reed used Western science to take down the Klamath damsInterview featuring Ron - Fire is Food: A Virtual Brown Bag Discussion with Ron Reed and Kari NorgaardJoanna BrooksBook: Why We Left WebsiteBioLinkedinGale Pettifer LinkedinBioSend us a messageSupport the showLearn more about Sara Jolena Wolcott and Sequoia SamanvayaMusic Title: Both of UsMusic by: madiRFAN Don't forget to "like" and share this episode!

Leadership looks powerful from the outside. But behind the scenes, the crown gets heavy. In this episode of The Level Up Podcast, Paul Alex breaks down the isolation that comes with leadership and why every true decision maker has to learn how to carry pressure without needing constant validation. Let's be real… If you expect everyone to understand your decisions… Agree with every hard call… Or appreciate the pressure you are under… You are going to be disappointed. Leadership is not about being liked. It is about protecting the mission. In this episode, you'll learn: Why leadership is not a popularity contest How tough decisions can make you feel misunderstood Why trying to please everyone can destroy the company How emotional resilience helps you carry the weight of responsibility The truth is simple: When you are the CEO… You will have to make decisions that people do not like. You may have to cut budgets. Fire underperformers. Change direction. Protect payroll. Or make a call that nobody else fully understands. That is the weight of the crown. Most people only see the final outcome. They do not see the risk. They do not see the pressure. They do not see the sleepless nights. High-level leaders stop chasing approval. They stand on the vision. They make the hard call. They carry the pressure. And they let the results become the validation. You asked for the throne. Now carry the crown. Lead your people. Protect the mission. And keep leveling up. Your Network is your NETWORTH!

In this episode, Amy sits down with Deborah Santana—author, philanthropist, and lifelong spiritual practitioner—for a conversation that explores what it means to live from inner sovereignty.While many may recognize her through her 34-year marriage to Carlos Santana, this conversation clarifies something more essential: Deborah Santana has lived a deeply self-directed life shaped by spiritual inquiry, service, and the willingness to begin again.Her memoir, Loving the Fire, becomes the thread through which we explore transformation—not as an abstract idea, but as a lived experience of loss, identity shift, and conscious rebuilding.Key Themes Explored1. Early Life and the Roots of Inner StrengthDeborah reflects on her upbringing in San Francisco, shaped by a family that quietly modeled independence and devotion.Her father, Saunders King, was a respected musician who chose presence over fame—offering an early model of values rooted in family rather than recognition.Her childhood was also grounded in spiritual diversity, moving between Pentecostal, Lutheran, and contemplative spaces. This early exposure created a foundation of spiritual curiosity that would later evolve into a lifelong meditation practice.2. Identity, Culture, and AwarenessDeborah shares her experience growing up in a multicultural environment, where belonging felt natural—until moments of racism revealed deeper social realities.These experiences did not define her, but they did shape her awareness. Over time, they became part of the “fire” she would learn to walk through rather than avoid.3. The Fire: Loss, Transition, and ReinventionA central moment in Deborah's life—and in this conversation—is her decision to leave a long-term marriage and step into the unknown.She describes this period with clarity:A sudden shift from a full, externally defined life into silenceThe loss of roles, identity, and structureThe necessity of sitting with herself, without distractionRather than rushing to rebuild, she allowed a period of stillness:Studying the work of Wayne Dyer and Thich Nhat HanhEngaging in self-inquiry through Al-Anon principlesReturning to yoga and meditation as stabilizing practicesThis was not framed as breakdown, but as disassembly for the purpose of reorganization.4. Loving the Fire: A Different Relationship to ChallengeThe central teaching of Deborah's memoir is simple, but not easy:Life is not happening to us—it is happening for us.She describes fire not as destruction, but as a condition for renewal. Like a forest that regenerates after burning, human life can reorganize into something more aligned—if we stay present through the process.This reflects a core principle in yoga therapy:We do not eliminate discomfortWe change our relationship to itWe allow it to inform growth5. Spiritual Practice as a Stabilizing ForceDeborah has maintained a meditation practice since her early twenties. During times of transition, this inner relationship became her anchor.She describes moments of:Deep peace in solitudeHeightened perception in natureA sense of connection beyond identityThese are not framed as extraordinary experiences, but as natural outcomes when external roles fall away and attention returns inward.6. Rebuilding with IntentionFollowing this period of reflection, Deborah began to rebuild her life in alignment with her values:Founded the nonprofit Do A Little, inspired by Desmond TutuProduced documentary films to support global humanitarian effortsWorked with organizations connected to Nelson MandelaBecame a founding donor of the Smithsonian National Museum of African American History and CultureHer work consistently centers on women, girls, and collective well-being.7. Education and Lifelong LearningIn her 50s, Deborah pursued a master's degree in Women's Spirituality at the California Institute of Integral Studies.This experience reflected a pattern throughout her life:Learning as a form of self-developmentIntegrating intellect with lived experienceValuing wisdom traditions alongside modern inquiry8. Global Perspective and HumilityTravel—particularly to Africa—played a significant role in reshaping her worldview.She describes:A felt sense of humanity's originsA reorientation away from individual-centered thinkingA deep respect for cultural wisdom beyond the U.S. lensThis aligns with a therapeutic perspective: healing often expands when we move beyond our habitual frame of reference.9. Current Work: Courage and EmpathyDeborah is currently involved in developing the Courage Museum in San Francisco, a project focused on:Understanding violence as a learned behaviorTeaching empathy as a skillCreating immersive experiences like “Empathy Mirrors,” where individuals witness and feel others' lived experiencesThe intention is clear: violence can be unlearned, and empathy can be cultivated.Clinical and Philosophical ReflectionsThis conversation offers several points of integration for yoga therapists and healthcare providers:Transformation often begins with disruption of identityStillness and reflection are not passive—they are reorganizing forcesSpiritual practice provides continuity when external roles dissolveGrowth requires both self-inquiry and self-responsibilityMeaning emerges not by avoiding difficulty, but by engaging it with awarenessClosing ReflectionDeborah Santana's life illustrates a steady principle:We are not defined by our roles, relationships, or accomplishments. When those fall away, what remains is the foundation we build from.Her story is not about reinvention as performance. It is about returning to something more essential—and choosing, from that place, how to live.Learn MoreLoving the Fire by Deborah SantanaAvailable via her website and major booksellersUpcoming events and book tour information available online

Doyle Bramhall II - guitarist, healer, and longtime collaborator of Eric Clapton - joins Dr. Will Cole for his very first podcast appearance. Doyle shares the story of growing up immersed in the Austin music scene, the dark side of the flower power era, and the decades-long personal journey through plant medicine, breathwork, Reiki, and energy work that led to the healing practice he now facilitates. They cover the science of DMT (including why gorillas beat their chests), the dangers of plant medicine without proper integration, the mycelia-internet connection, and intergenerational trauma stored in the body's cells. Dr. Cole also shares what happened during his own three-hour session with Doyle - a psychedelic-level experience with no plant medicine. Plus: how Doyle met Eric Clapton over a cold call from Japan and a Starbucks in Venice.
