Dr. T and Truth Fairy welcome clinical psychologist Dr. Bianca Sebben, whose work bridges complex trauma, dissociative disorders, Indigenous psychology, psychedelic integration, and eco-soul-centric approaches to healing. Drawing from her experience working with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, as well as her research into traditional medicines and cultural safety, Bianca explores what it means to reconnect with humanity's deeper relationship to the Earth. Together, they discuss ecological grief, soul, belonging, and the importance of understanding ourselves as part of a larger living system rather than isolated individuals.   The conversation examines the intersection of trauma, dissociation, and psychedelic healing through a developmental and relational lens. Bianca challenges the growing tendency to frame psychedelic medicine as a quick solution for depression, PTSD, or emotional suffering. Instead, she proposes that psychedelics often reveal what has been hidden, initiating a longer process of integration, meaning-making, and transformation. Dr. T, Truth Fairy, and Bianca explore concepts such as soul initiation, descent, grief, structural dissociation, and the risks of seeking transcendence before establishing sufficient grounding, embodiment, and relational safety.  Together, they also question dominant medical narratives around treatment-resistant depression, symptom reduction, and pathology. Bianca offers a perspective that reframes suffering as an adaptive response to relational and environmental conditions rather than simply a disorder to eliminate. The discussion highlights the importance of therapist self-awareness, resistance in the therapeutic relationship, Indigenous understandings of wellness, and the need to honour grief without pathologizing it. This episode offers a thoughtful and deeply philosophical exploration of trauma-informed psychedelic care, ecological belonging, and how healing may emerge through relationship, authenticity, and connection to both self and Earth.  "We've all come from an ancestry of people that have deep, deep connection to the earth, and those of us that are part of the community of colonization, we're just more disconnected from those origins of our earth-connected connected nature, our true nature."  - Dr. Bianca Sebben About Dr. Bianca Sebben: Dr Bianca Sebben is a Clinical Psychologist in private practice with experience working in both public and private sectors, including hospital inpatient settings. Bianca has a special interest in complex trauma, dissociative disorders and working with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.

For decades, the church's answer to struggling marriages has been clear: pray more, submit more, give him what he needs. Sheila Wray Gregoire's research asked a different question: What if the advice itself is the problem?Drawing on a survey of 20,000 women, the largest ever done on Christian women's marital and sexual satisfaction, Sheila lays out what the data actually shows: a stark gap between men's and women's experiences, the quiet damage done by teaching women that sex is only his need, and why so many couples reach intercourse on their wedding night only to wonder if something is broken in her. She makes the case, gently but firmly, that if a teacher consistently produces bad fruit, the teacher's teaching deserves a second look.This is a rebroadcast of a 2021 conversation that remains one of the most meaningful in the show's history.Sheila Wray Gregoire is a researcher and author of The Great Sex Rescue.Support the showENGAGE THE RESTORING THE SOUL PODCAST:- Follow us on YouTube - Tweet us at @michaeljcusick and @PodcastRTS- Like us on Facebook- Follow us on Instagram & Twitter- Follow Michael on Twitter- Email us at info@restoringthesoul.com Thanks for listening!

What happens when you stop viewing yourself through a pathology lens and start seeing your differences as part of your identity instead of evidence that something is wrong with you? In this thought-provoking conversation, I sit down with Shira Collings, LPC, a neurodiversity-affirming, fat-affirming, LGBTQIA+ affirming, disability justice-aligned therapist, to explore neurodivergence as a social identity and how that perspective can transform the way we think about eating disorders, mental health, and recovery. Together, we discuss the concept of sanism, the oppression faced by people whose minds fall outside societal expectations of "normal," and how shame often develops when people internalize messages that they are broken, defective, or in need of fixing. We also examine the overlap between neurodiversity, anti-fatness, eating disorder recovery, and disability justice. Shira shares their personal journey with neurodivergence, anxiety, depression, eating disorders, and self-acceptance. We discuss why many people identify as neurodivergent without pursuing formal diagnosis, how neurodivergence can function as a cultural identity, and why community often plays a powerful role in healing. We also unpack radical acceptance, harm reduction, and the limitations of all-or-nothing recovery narratives. Instead of focusing on perfection, we explore how people can reduce suffering, increase self-compassion, and build lives that align with their values. In This Episode, We Discuss Neurodivergence as a social identity rather than a diagnosis The origins of the neurodiversity paradigm What sanism is and how it affects mental health care Self-diagnosis, formal diagnosis, and personal identity The intersection of neurodiversity, eating disorders, and anti-fatness How shame fuels both mental health struggles and eating disorders Radical acceptance and self-compassion Harm reduction approaches in eating disorder recovery Why recovery does not need to be all-or-nothing How disability justice can reshape the way we support neurodivergent people About Shira Collings Shira Collings, LPC (she/they), is a feminist, neurodiversity-affirming, LGBTQIA+ affirming, fat-affirming, and disability justice-aligned psychotherapist. They specialize in reproductive mental health, eating disorders, body image concerns, trauma, grief, and loss. Shira supports clients in healing from internalized and systemic oppression while building lives that align with their values. Follow Shira on Instagram: @threadandthreshold.therapy Website: threadandthreshold.com Who This Episode Is For This episode is for neurodivergent people, eating disorder survivors, therapists, advocates, caregivers, and anyone who has ever wondered whether they have spent too much of their life trying to fix parts of themselves that were never broken. Key Takeaway Healing does not always come from becoming someone different. Sometimes healing begins when you stop treating yourself like a problem to solve and start approaching yourself with curiosity, compassion, and acceptance.

Today on the show we are joined by Christie Jordan Barron, an educator, mother, mover, maker, and somatic experiencing practitioner based in the Hudson Valley. Christie believes deeply in our essential need for connection to our own hearts, to nature, and to each other. She is dedicated to holding space for people to sense into and stay curious about the various parts and pieces that make us all tenderly human.  Our conversation weaves through Christie's work, lived experiences and the deep wisdom she's landed on along the way. We learn about her work in the practice of dying and how that supports us through deaths of all types and the grief that often accompanies loss. She shares insight into community's role with grief and how that helps us in moving away from the expert paradigm. Her work as an educator has expanded to include sexual education, supporting youth navigating their relationship to their changing bodies and their autonomy. We talk about her role as mother and the complexities of what that surfaced for her. Our parenting conversation leads us to explore the balance between structure and freedom (masculine and feminine), and we spend some time talking about the challenges of navigating conflict and how to hold one accountable for their actions. Let us know what out conversation brings up for you!

Step into a deeply feminine, embodied, and soul-stirring sisterhood conversation with Francesca Barone, co-founder of Anam Kara Healing Retreats, on this episode of Intimate Conversations: Dark Night to Divine Light. Francesca is devoted to preserving indigenous shamanic wisdom and guiding people into safe, transformative plant medicine ceremonies rooted in embodiment, ritual, and reverence for the Earth. Francesca shares her journey from survival-based resilience into radical softness, revealing how years of trauma, addiction, and pushing through life shaped her nervous system, leadership, and relationships. She opens up about building her ayahuasca retreat center from a place of endurance rather than ease, and the deep reckoning that came when she realized she had everything she thought she wanted, yet still did not feel safe, held, or at home in her body. We explore the terror and courage of surrender, especially for women who have been rewarded for strength and resilience. Francesca speaks vulnerably about releasing control in love, business, and spirituality. She shares how reconnecting to the Divine Mother, the womb, and the Earth became the doorway to true healing, pleasure, and trust in life. Together, we dive into embodiment as the medicine, the intelligence of the body's ability to disconnect for protection, and the slow, sacred work of returning home. Francesca offers profound insight into why healing does not come from constant effort or expansion, but from creating space for spaciousness, allowing grief, stillness, and the fertile darkness to restore wholeness. We also talk about: -Returning to the Divine Mother and feminine safety -Surrender versus survival-based resilience -The body's wisdom to disconnect and reconnect -Embodiment, pleasure, and grounded aliveness -Grief as the gateway to softness and trust -Plant medicine as ally, not escape -Creating space, stillness, and integration -Healing sexual and developmental trauma -Trusting divine timing in love, motherhood, and life This episode is an invitation to slow down, soften, and descend. It reminds us that creation is born from the fertile darkness, that surrender is an act of profound courage, and that the body holds the memory of safety, pleasure, and belonging when we allow ourselves to listen.

She reminds us that you can be mystical and everyday. You don't have to choose between worlds or shrink yourself to fit into one identity. Instead, you are invited to fully embody who you already are.In this conversation, we explore what it means to awaken your authentic self, shift your energetic state, and begin living in alignment with your inner truth. We also speak about the importance of moving the body, listening inwardly, and learning to trust your intuition as a guiding force in your life.Ginger and I also share about Rise and Reset, our collaborative early morning beach gatherings in Sarasota, Florida — where somatic movement, breathwork, and energy healing come together in nature to support deep regulation and transformation. If you're local, we would love to welcome you to a future session.This episode is an invitation to remember your own inner wisdom, reconnect with your body, and explore what becomes possible when you begin to live from a more embodied and authentic place.About Ginger:Website: www.theembodiedfrequency.comGet on a waitlist for The Awakened Woman A Soul Frequency Journey!InstagramTiktokWays to connect with Masako:Let's meditate together on InsightTimer!Why not meditate?

Sydney Millage discusses embodiment with us today on this short. Join us for the rest of this discussion on the podcast under the title: Sally's Story with Sydney Millage.

LESSON 163There Is No Death. The Son Of God Is Free.Death is a thought that takes on many forms, often unrecognized. It may appear as sadness, fear, anxiety or doubt; as anger, faithlessness and lack of trust; concern for bodies, envy, and all forms in which the wish to be as you are not may come to tempt you. All such thoughts are but reflections of the worshipping of death as savior and as giver of release.Embodiment of fear, the host of sin, god of the guilty and the lord of all illusions and deceptions, does the thought of death seem mighty. For it seems to hold all living things within its withered hand; all hopes and wishes in its blighting grasp; all goals perceived but in its sightless eyes. The frail, the helpless and the sick bow down before its image, thinking it alone is real, inevitable, worthy of their trust. For it alone will surely come.All things but death are seen to be unsure, too quickly lost however hard to gain, uncertain in their outcome, apt to fail the hopes they once engendered, and to leave the taste of dust and ashes in their wake, in place of aspirations and of dreams. But death is counted on. For it will come with certain footsteps when the time has come for its arrival. It will never fail to take all life as hostage to itself.Would you bow down to idols such as this? Here is the strength and might of God Himself perceived within an idol made of dust. Here is the opposite of God proclaimed as lord of all creation, stronger than God's Will for life, the endlessness of love and Heaven's perfect, changeless constancy. Here is the Will of Father and of Son defeated finally, and laid to rest beneath the headstone death has placed upon the body of the holy Son of God.Unholy in defeat, he has become what death would have him be. His epitaph, which death itself has written, gives no name to him, for he has passed to dust. It says but this: “Here lies a witness God is dead.” And this it writes again and still again, while all the while its worshippers agree, and kneeling down with foreheads to the ground, they whisper fearfully that it is so.It is impossible to worship death in any form, and still select a few you would not cherish and would yet avoid, while still believing in the rest. For death is total. Either all things die, or else they live and cannot die. No compromise is possible. For here again we see an obvious position, which we must accept if we be sane; what contradicts one thought entirely can not be true, unless its opposite is proven false.The idea of the death of God is so preposterous that even the insane have difficulty in believing it. For it implies that God was once alive and somehow perished; killed, apparently, by those who did not want Him to survive. Their stronger will could triumph over His, and so eternal life gave way to death. And with the Father died the Son as well.Death's worshippers may be afraid. And yet, can thoughts like these be fearful? If they saw that it is only this which they believe, they would be instantly released. And you will show them this today. There is no death, and we renounce it now in every form, for their salvation and our own as well. God made not death. Whatever form it takes must therefore be illusion. This the stand we take today. And it is given us to look past death, and see the life beyond.Our Father, bless our eyes today. We are Your messengers, and we would look upon the glorious reflection of Your Love which shines in everything. We live and move in You alone. We are not separate from Your eternal life. There is no death, for death is not Your Will. And we abide where You have placed us, in the life we share with You and with all living things, to be like You and part of You forever. We accept Your Thoughts as ours, and our will is one with Yours eternally. Amen.- Jesus Christ in ACIM

Plötzlich spürte ich sie: ganz präsent, so lebendig, so sinnlich und gleichzeitig so unschuldig, roh und absolut in Vertrauen und Offenheit.

On today's episode Aly sits down with Banafsheh Sayyad. She is a master sacred dancer, spiritual teacher and founder of "Dance of Oneness." Born in Iran, Banafsheh comes from a lineage of pioneering performing artists. She boldly forged a career in dance despite resistance from her family and a patriarchal culture that considered dance shameful. Her spiritual quest began at a young age leading her around the world where she received her MFA in dance and choreography from UCLA. She is internationally known for her groundbreaking choreography, where she invokes the ancient roots of dance as devotion, prayer, and adoration. An innovator of Sufi dance previously only performed by men, she represents the timeless Divine Feminine inside a contemporary gypsy darvish, beckoning us to live with passion, wildness, and reverence. Today, she and Aly discuss her work and how dance can be an act of liberation and celebration. If you'd like to experience Banafsheh's work she has an upcoming 7 week online course via the Shift Network. You can find out more information via www.danceofoneness.org. Banafsheh is hosting a Free Intro Event called Dancing the Sacred Geometry of the Rose during which I introduce the course. This airs Saturday, June 13th at 10am PT, and the replay is on Tuesday, June 16th at 12pm PT. https://shiftnetwork.isrefer.com/go/dsgrBS/banafsheh1/ Learn more about your ad choices.

Does it feel like you’re navigating life with a blindfold on and your hands outstretched? We are at a massive precipice in humanity and in our personal soul journeys—a true point of no return where the energy is accelerating faster than our minds can process. If you feel present but simultaneously lost, you are not alone. In this transmission, we are exploring what it means to be human, embodied, and radically authentic during a time of rapid technological, cultural, and relational change. We dive into the profound difference between Purpose (linear, finite, goal-oriented) and Meaning (fluid, vast, and evolving), and why what anchored you three years ago simply will not work today. We also unpack the massive cosmic currents rewiring our collective consciousness right now: - The 1 Universal Year / 10 Year Cycle: Paving a brand new frontier, pioneering a new path, and outgrowing the versions of ourselves that no longer fit. - Uranus in Gemini (The next 7 years): The electric, shocking, and fast-paced energy of awakening that is literally rewiring how we communicate, process information, and connect. - The Power of Physical Symptoms: Understanding how anxiety, overwhelm, or physical pain are actually acting as energetic anchoring points for your soul’s evolution. The summer months ahead (June, July, and August) hold profound astrology that will set massive, irreversible changes in motion. It’s time to find what tethers you to your evolving meaning, step into the future human version of yourself, and invite more light into your physical vessel.

Cal built the kind of life most men spend their whole lives chasing. Then a night in Vegas showed him it wasn't the one he was meant to live.Cal Callahan walked away from a successful career in finance to host The Great Unlearn and build Unlearn Ventures, a fund and studio backing conscious projects that put people over profit. He lived the accumulation side of the equation long enough to know exactly what it costs.Net worth and self-worth are not the same thing, and most men find that out too late.

Your body is not a cage for your spirit. It is, in fact, the key to your awakening. In many spiritual communities, the term "meatsuit" gets tossed around. It's become shorthand for the idea that our physical bodies are just temporary vehicles and obstacles we need to transcend.  But that perspective is wrong, and it's actually keeping you from the very spiritual growth you're seeking! In this livestream, we're dismantling the meatsuit fallacy and exploring what spiritual traditions, ancient wisdom, and modern research reveal about the incredible intelligence of the human body:

Want to shift from rushed → calm, and going through the motions → deeply connected (without going on a retreat or spending a week in meditation)? Me too!!! Most of us know what it feels like to go through the motions - ticking off the to-do list, getting from one task to the next, collapsing into bed and wondering where the day actually went. Not burned out exactly. Just... a little numb. A little out of touch with ourselves. We've got a new podcast sharing 5 practices I've been loving lately as a human trying to actually feel her days, not just survive them. None of these require a retreat, a ritual, or an hour of free time. They are tiny practices that create a big exhale as you get more calm & connected (to yourself, your aliveness & our world).

Gemini season arrives like a fresh wind.After the grounding, stabilising energy of Taurus season, something begins to move. Curiosity awakens. Questions arise. We become more aware of the world around us and our place within it.In this episode, we explore Gemini not as a personality type, but as a teacher within the zodiac journey. A living archetype that invites us into greater curiosity, learning, observation and connection.Together we'll explore Gemini's foundations as a mutable air sign, its place in the unfolding journey of the zodiac, and the deeper wisdom this season offers. We'll reflect on the symbolism of the Twins, Mercury as Gemini's ruling planet, and why Gemini reminds us that life is not something to master, but something to remain in conversation with.This episode explores:• Gemini's role in the zodiac journey and the transition from Taurus season• Gemini as a mutable air sign and what this teaches us about adaptability and perspective• The symbolism of the Twins and the wisdom of holding multiple perspectives• Mercury, communication, learning and the exchange of ideas• Curiosity as a spiritual practice• The sacred art of paying attention• Information versus wisdom and navigating Gemini's shadows• Practical ways to embody Gemini season through observation, conversation and learning• Reflection questions and invitations for the season aheadGemini reminds us that wisdom is not only found in certainty.It is found in wonder.In questions.In paying attention.In remaining open to what life is trying to teach us.May this season invite you back into conversation with the living world around you.EPISODE RESOURCES:Sophie Strand on Instagram (or search her name on any podcast app!)Braiding Sweetgrass by Robin Wall KimmererInstagram accounts I've recently followed:@diaryof.orchid@freemansroad@jungle_doctor@korimeloy@alix_cu@elysenutritionist–––CONNECT WITH RACHEL:Instagram: @rachelhodgensWebsite: rachelhodgens.comIf you enjoyed this episode, please consider subscribing, leaving a review, or sharing it with someone who may be walking this path alongside you.

We can know we are loved and still not be able to let it in. The gap between believing something and feeling it in the body is not a faith problem — it's a physiological one.In this second conversation with Aundi Kolber, Michael and Julianne press deeper into what it actually takes to change: why being loved is not just a comfort but a biological prerequisite for growth, why asking someone to change before they feel safe is, in Aundi's word, cruel, and what it means to come home to yourself rather than keep fleeing from what hurts. Aundi also draws a line between the shame that keeps us stuck and the compassion that actually moves us — and why God is calling us home, not calling us out.This is a rebroadcast of one of the most-listened-to conversations in the show's ten-year history.Aundi Kolber is a licensed therapist and author of Try Softer: A Fresh Approach to Move Us Out of Anxiety, Stress, and Survival and Into a Life of Connection and Joy.Support the showENGAGE THE RESTORING THE SOUL PODCAST:- Follow us on YouTube - Tweet us at @michaeljcusick and @PodcastRTS- Like us on Facebook- Follow us on Instagram & Twitter- Follow Michael on Twitter- Email us at info@restoringthesoul.com Thanks for listening!

Happy Mindful Monday Everyone! In this week's episode, our host Allie Brooke sits down with Katarzyna (Kasia) Dodd. She  is a European-licensed psychologist, therapist, and author who is completely shifting how we approach subconscious healing. She is the developer of the Inner Parent Theory—a powerful and necessary missing piece of the traditional Inner Child framework —which she explores deeply in her book, You Are the Dream of the Universe. As a true pioneer in somatic and energy work, Katarzyna introduced Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) to Poland and created the Inherence® Process, a dedicated method for restoring an unshakeable connection with your deepest Self. Born in Kraków, she spent 22 years in the United States before relocating to the Indian Ocean coast of Africa, bringing a highly global and expansive perspective to her practice. Her newest book, The Chameleon's Game, exposes the hidden psychological traps of covert narcissism. In this episode, she breaks down those draining dynamics and provides a clear, actionable roadmap for reclaiming your self-trust, personal clarity, and peace.   In this episode, they discuss; Rebuilding from the Ground Up: The vital first step to constructing a supportive, protective "Inner Parent" immediately following a relationship that shattered self-worth. Embodiment vs. Intellectualizing Healing: Why logically understanding toxic dynamics isn't enough to heal, and how the Inherence® Process bridges that gap to restore connection with the "deep Self." Real-Time Nervous System Regulation: Navigating sudden triggers, fear, or intrusive memories using immediate somatic tools (like EFT and meditation) rather than defaulting to old subconscious safety mechanisms. The Anatomy of a Grounded Boundary: The critical energetic difference between setting a boundary fueled by reactive fear and anger versus one anchored by a calm, empowered Inner Parent.

#426 In this episode, Guy talked with Andrew Molnar and explored the idea that human beings are far more than physical bodies and may possess a deeper spiritual nature connected to consciousness, light, and personal transformation. Drawing from Christian mysticism, Tibetan Buddhism, quantum theories, and his own experiences, Andrew discussed the concept of "ascension" as a journey of awakening through commitment, purification, and daily spiritual practice. He emphasized the importance of examining limiting beliefs, healing emotional wounds, being intentional about the influences we allow into our lives, and cultivating practices such as meditation, prayer, and Tai Chi. Throughout the episode, the discussion encourages listeners to look inward rather than outward for fulfillment, embrace personal growth, and recognize that love, awareness, and self-transformation may be the keys to unlocking humanity's highest potential. About Andrew: My conscious journey began in college when I was diagnosed with a serious illness induced by stress. Heeding my doctor's advice, I significantly changed my outlook and life rhythms, which included starting daily meditation practices.  After my body healed, I decided to prioritize living my fullest health and well-being above all else…and assist others in doing the same. For almost three decades I've done so as a healer both as a manager and consultant for organizations, as well as through private healing sessions with individuals.

Diets teach us to view the body as a project. You can tinker with what you're eating and transform your body into something different. Then fitness culture doubles down and provides the message that you can shape your body to be whatever you want it to be, you just have to put up with messages like no pain, no gain and a complete disconnection from your body, how it feels, and what resonates with it. I know I spent years and years in this ping pong game of diets and body shaping. Then, saying F this, swinging the pendulum to the opposite side and eating everything I had deprived and barely moving my body, only to still feel horrible that I went crawling back to a diet again because I had no clue what else to do. There is a lot that gets sacrificed seeing the body as a project and this realization often only occurs after months and years when you realize you don't know who you are anymore, how to exist in your body, or what it actually needs. Yet, releasing the habitual relationship with the body as something to change and alter will also potentially change your relationships, the environments you've been interacting with, and the conversations you engage in. It isn't that easy when everyone around you is also in their own body project to say, "hey, ya know what, I'm done working on my body." In this week's episode, I chat with Savala Nolan, writer, author, public speaker, and professor at UC Berkeley about: The journey of recovering from diet cultureUnderstanding the language and psychological impact of dietingEnding the body project and facing the fears and cost of body liberationQuestioning societal normsPractical steps toward body liberationYou can also read the transcript to this week's episode ​here​: https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/breaking-free-from-diet-cultureThis was such a fantastic conversation. Savala describes exiting diet culture in a way that I've never heard someone capture what it is actually like and what a person may come to face in the process. If you have any insights from this episode, let me know!

A panel of disclosure researchers and starseed teachers — including Viviane Chauvet — opens up the bridge between dimensions: embodiment, Akashic parallel lifetimes, Lyran trauma in the body, and what it means to walk between worlds. From Arcturian-guided trips to Crestone, Colorado, to the natural laws encoded in everything from biochemistry to bioelectricity, the panel explores how multidimensional awareness lands in the body. Lyran trauma manifests as immunocompromised conditions in many starseeds — healing requires both shadow work and reintegration with the original lifetime. The panel closes with a guided heart-centered meditation grounding the cosmic into the present moment.

Send me a some feedback!In this episode, Mike explores one of the most transformative realizations in personal growth and self-leadership: you do not experience life through your circumstances—you experience life through your emotions. Drawing from his own journey with imposter syndrome, executive leadership, entrepreneurship, and coaching, he reveals how the gap between your inner world and outer world creates unnecessary suffering, even when success, wealth, love, and opportunity are already present.At the heart of this conversation is the understanding that most people aren't actually chasing money, success, relationships, or achievement. They're chasing the emotions they've assigned to those things. The challenge is that no external circumstance can permanently change your internal experience. True transformation happens when you learn to release old emotional patterns, embody new emotional states, and consciously train your nervous system to receive the life you've already created.Key Takeaways1. The feelings in your body are real, but they are often lying to you. Just because you feel inadequate, unsuccessful, unloved, or insecure doesn't mean those feelings accurately reflect reality.2. Imposter syndrome is a mismatch between your inner world and your outer world. When your achievements expand but your internal identity doesn't, you continue feeling like a fraud despite evidence of success. 3. Most people don't want the thing—they want the feeling they believe the thing will provide. Money, relationships, business success, travel, and achievement are often emotional pursuits disguised as external goals.4. Embodiment is allowing yourself to feel now what you've been waiting for circumstances to give you. The body must receive the emotional experience before life begins to feel different.5. Managing your inner world separately from your external circumstances is the real work. Your business, bank account, relationship status, and achievements do not determine your emotional state unless you allow them to.Notable Quotes "The feelings in your body are real, but they are lying to you."  "The imposter syndrome comes when your internal world doesn't match the external world."  "You don't want the thing. You want the emotion you've assigned to the thing."  "You only experience yourself as the emotions you're carrying around."  "You don't experience the world as it is. You experience the world as you are." Call to ActionIf this episode challenged the way you think about success, fulfillment, and personal growth, take a moment to look at what emotions you've been waiting for life to give you.What if peace doesn't require a bigger bank account? What if love doesn't require a different relationship? What if success doesn't require another accomplishment? What if the next level of your life begins by allowing yourself to feel differently today?If you're getting value from The Inner Wealth Podcast, subscribe, rate, and review the show on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, or wherever you listen.

Send us Fan MailIn a world determined to sell us anti-ageing solutions, what would it look like to trust our bodies instead? This conversation explores ageism, diet culture, menopause, embodiment, and the radical possibility of ageing without apology. We just loved this conversation with Deb Benfield. Deb truly embodies her work and exudes an inner confidence and an ease with herself and her own body, that is at once disarming and encouraging.Key Takeaways: Diet culture and ageism often collide in midlife, creating pressure to "fix" our bodies just as they're changing in normal ways.  Embodiment offers an antidote to body image struggles: moving, dancing, and inhabiting our bodies helps us remember we're bodies to be lived in, not objectified. Trusting the body becomes even more important through perimenopause and menopause, when appetite, energy, and physical needs naturally fluctuate.  The stories we tell ourselves about ageing matter. Research suggests that positive attitudes toward ageing can influence health, wellbeing, and longevity.  Unlearning ageism starts with noticing the assumptions we make about youth, ageing, and what bodies "should" look like at different stages of life.  Rather than chasing anti-ageing promises, we can focus on nurturing strength, connection, pleasure, and quality of life.  Ageing unapologetically means embracing change while staying rooted in self-trust, self-compassion, and respect for the wisdom of our lived experience. Here are some links if you'd like to find out more about Deb, or have a look at her offerings:Deb Benfield Website InstagramSubstackBuy Deb's book - Unapologetic Aging Support the showPlease reach out if you would like some support with your relationship to food OR movement.

The Crown Chakra is mystical, ethereal, and elusive—it’s the ultimate gateway to higher consciousness. But did you know that your Crown Chakra cannot operate in isolation? In this video, we dive deep into the ultimate paradox of spiritual awakening: the more you know, the more you realize you don’t know. While the Crown Chakra functions as a funnel for divine wisdom and cosmic "downloads," it relies entirely on the rest of your body's "operating system" (your lower chakras) to translate, interpret, and ground that energy into practical human form. Without balance, an overactive Crown Chakra can lead to spiritual bypassing, dissociation, anxiety, or feeling completely ungrounded from reality. What we cover in this episode: --The literal "juggling act" of balancing higher consciousness. --How stress, fear, and scarcity block the communication channel between your Crown and your Root. --How to use automatic journaling, breathwork, and specific yoga asanas (like Mountain Pose and Forward Fold) to connect the whole system. --Why the health of your Crown Chakra isn't just about receiving information—it's about being spiritually connected and embodied.

What if your body has been telling the truth, and you've just been too rushed to hear it? In this episode, I'm reflecting on what my Doctor of Ministry project, Artful Awakening, taught me about embodied spirituality, the incarnation, and the wisdom of the body. For a long time, I lived mostly from the neck up: thinking, planning, producing, and doing the next thing. But through this work, I began to learn that breath, tension, exhaustion, grief, desire, and joy can all be ways the Spirit is speaking. If God chose a body in Jesus, then our bodies are not distractions from our spiritual lives. They are part of how God meets us. www.amberleagray.com www.instagram.com/amber.lea.gray Episode Themes: embodied spirituality, incarnation, body wisdom, spiritual discernment, Artful Awakening, Doctor of Ministry, spiritual formation, resistance, Christian spirituality

In this episode, we explore a question that feels more urgent than ever: what if healing ourselves and healing the planet are deeply interconnected?Monica is joined by author Lindsay Branham, whose book Heartwood: The Wisdom and Healing Kinship of Trees chronicles her personal journey through chronic illness and toward a deeper relationship with the natural world. Guest co-host Florence Williams, bestselling author of The Nature Fix, also brings her expertise on nature, health, and well-being to this wide-ranging conversation.Together, they explore the story behind Heartwood and the experiences that led Lindsay from a career as a war journalist and Emmy Award–winning documentary filmmaker to an exploration of ecology, spirituality, and embodied healing. The conversation delves into interoception – sometimes called our “eighth sense” – and how tuning into the body's internal signals may help us reconnect with ourselves and the living world around us.From chronic illness and nervous system regulation to reciprocal healing, belonging, and even erotic ecology, this episode examines why so many of us are searching for deeper connection in an increasingly disconnected world and what nature may have to teach us about finding it. If you're interested in the intersection of science, spirituality, and healing, this is a conversation you won't want to miss.Show NotesHeartwood: The Healing Wisdom & Kinship of Trees by Lindsay BranhamHeartwood InstituteLindsay Branham on SubstackFlorence Williams The Nature Fix: Why Nature Makes Us Happier, Healthier, and More Creative by Florence Williams Key Words: biophilia, biophilic design, nature connection, healing, planetary health, human health, ecology, spirituality, interoception, nervous system regulation, forest healing, nature therapy, forest bathing, ecological connection, mindfulness, embodiment, emotional well-being, Florence Williams, Lindsay Branham, Heartwood, The Nature Fix, Biophilic Solutions, sustainability, conservation, healing through nature, wild places, environmental psychology, holistic health, connection, natural world, regenerative living, personal transformation, neuroscience, nature and well-being, eco-spirituality, environmental stewardship, intentional livingBiophilic Solutions is available wherever you get podcasts.

Chelsea Horton is a somatic coach, educator, and founder of Healing Embodied, where she trains wellness professionals to integrate somatics, creativity, and emotional healing into their work. A former worship leader with a master's in Dance and Movement Therapy, Chelsea went from the most devoted Christian you'd ever meet, engaged to her gay best friend for Jesus, to building a life and practice rooted entirely in embodied truth. Together we explore religious trauma, good girl programming, what embodiment actually means in daily life, and why your emotions are not a problem to solve but raw material for creation. Connect with Chelsea:www.healingembodied.com/connecthttps://www.instagram.com/healing.embodiedWORK WITH ME 1:1:❥Softening into self- 3 month 1:1 with Whats App Support:https://marina-yt.mykajabi.com/offers/PAWQhZHu❥❥1:1 Coaching with me: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfWcZM5s9c2OjOLwoGMI5jE6rh_JAzjN2d_vCtuVe7e3pVGxw/viewformDOWNLOAD FOR FREE:Stay or Go: 5 Clarity Questions to Reconnect with Your Inner Knowing: https://marinayt.com/stay-or-go-guideAttatchment Practice: Discover the actual blocks beneath the surface so you can actually have the deep intimacy you crave: https://marinayt.com/attachment-practice Connect & Ground: 10 Incredible Somatic Practices for Nervous System Regulation: https://marinayt.com/connect-and-groundAlive & Aligned: 7 Embodiment Practices For Self Connection: https://marinayt.com/alive-and-alignedTrigger to Rooted: A step by step process of working with your triggers: https://marinayt.com/trigger-2-rooted VIEW MY COURSES & RESOURCES:https://marinayt.com/resources CONNECT WITH  ME:Follow me on Instagram:⁠ ⁠www.instagram.com/marina.y.t⁠⁠ Subscribe to YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/@marinatriner Top Episode Quotes:"Embodiment is when you live, breathe, become the thing — instead of just knowing it conceptually.

From Insight to Embodiment: Healing, Awakening, and the Power of Relational Safety with Blaise KennedyWhat if real change doesn't happen through insight alone, but through the body, the nervous system, and the relationships that teach us how to become whole?In this deeply grounded and spacious episode of the Sacred Changemakers Podcast, I'm joined by Blaise Kennedy, a teacher and guide working at the intersection of embodied awareness, relational attunement, and spiritual awakening. Blaise supports growth-oriented people who are spiritually curious, emotionally honest, and ready for change that shows up in daily life, not only in meditation or peak experiences. His work was shaped by a major turning point at age 24, when he entered recovery and began a serious path of self-inquiry, healing, and integration. That journey eventually led him to create Developmental Architecture, a staged, embodied map of growth that weaves together awakening, nervous system capacity, trauma repair, and relational maturity into one developmental process.Together, we explore why healing is not a solo project, the difference between insight and embodiment, what the nervous system may really be asking for, and how awakening, healing, and manifestation can be understood as different facets of one living process of consciousness. This conversation has so much value for anyone working in change, whether through coaching, facilitation, leadership, organizational transformation, healing, or community work. It is also deeply relevant for anyone who has done inner work, had powerful insights, or experienced moments of awakening, yet still finds themselves returning to familiar patterns.Blaise brings a rare combination of vulnerability, humility, wisdom, and lived experience. This is not a conversation about change as theory. It is about change that becomes embodied, relational, and real.Key TakeawaysWhy insight alone is not enough to create lasting changeHow the nervous system shapes our capacity for awakening, intimacy, manifestation, and growthWhy healing was never meant to happen in isolation: The importance of relational safety, attunement, and co-regulation in transformationWhat becomes possible when awakening moves from peak experience into daily lifeWhy coaches, leaders, and changemakers need to understand their own nervous system and relational presenceLearn More About Today's GuestBlaise's website ****→ www.blaisekennedy.comBlaise's Instagram →@blaisehereAbout the HostJayne Warrilow is the founder of Sacred Changemakers, a global community and learning space exploring the intersection of human resonance, regenerative change, and conscious leadership.Learn more at sacredchangemakers.com

I have often felt like talking about self love can feel frustrating and confusion. What does loving oneself actually mean and look like? Early in my twenties, I think I thought self love looked and felt like self discipline. I went to yoga and meditated almost every day, I was strict with myself on what and when I would eat, I went to bed early and woke up early. From the outside, it looked like I deeply loved myself through how I cared for myself but that it not the way it felt. I felt trapped, depressed, and disconnected. My routine wasn't bringing me joy or love, it brought short term safety. And that bubble would burst if I did anything outside of that routine where I would then be so cruel with myself. Self love may show up as an act, but now I experience it as a felt sense. It feels like a warmth, a closeness, and an appreciation of my body for all that it does and navigates every day.In this week's episode, I chat with Lulu Essey, Speaker, Mindset Advisor, and host of The Lulu Essey Podcast , about: Understanding the difference between self love and self careThe practice of staying with yourself in all emotions, sensations, and reactionsNavigating discomfortThe role of safety in self loveThe courage to face inner struggles and the importance of asking for supportYou can also read the transcript to this week's episode ​here​: https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/what-self-love-really-is-and-how-to-embody-it-every-dayHope you enjoy this week's episode and talk to you more soon! With Compassion and Empathy, Stephanie Mara FoxKeep in touch with Lulu: YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@luluessey Website: https://www.luluessey.com/ Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lucille-marie-essey/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lulu.essey/Support the showKeep in touch with Stephanie Mara:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/_stephaniemara/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/stephaniemarafoxWebsite: https://www.stephaniemara.com/https://www.somaticeating.com/Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stephmara/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@stephaniemarafoxContact: support@stephaniemara.comSupport the show:Become a supporter: https://www.buzzsprout.com/809987/supportAll affiliate links: https://www.stephaniemara.com/resourcesReceive 15% off my fave protein powder with code STEPHANIEMARA at checkout here: https://www.equipfoods.com/STEPHANIEMARAUse my Amazon Affiliate link when shopping on Amazon: https://amzn.to/448IyPlSpecial thanks to Bendsound for the music in this episode. www.bensou...

Visualization is more than imagination. It is the spiritual practice of seeing a new possibility within, feeling it deeply, and beginning to live from that truth now. In this powerful Science of Mind Journey talk, Rev. Lee Wolak explores the connection between visualization, embodiment, spiritual awareness, and personal transformation. You will discover why simply thinking about a better life is not enough. True transformation happens when your thoughts, emotions, beliefs, energy, and actions begin to align with the person you are becoming. Visualization opens the inner doorway, but embodiment is what allows that vision to become your lived experience. This video is for anyone seeking greater spiritual understanding, conscious creation, emotional alignment, inner growth, and a deeper connection to the power within. Learn how to use your imagination consciously, shift your state of being, and begin living from the awareness that your outer world responds to your inner consciousness.

What does joy look like in the midst of pain and grief? K.J. Ramsey's memoir, The Place Between Our Pains, was written while she was fighting for her life - and in this conversation, she talks about what that actually means. We get into how dependence on others opens us to love in ways independence never could, why grief is a gate into aliveness rather than a place to get stuck, and what it looked like to launch a book about joy while facing a tumor diagnosis and an IV drip on launch day. This is a conversation about the kind of joy that doesn't require a tidy resolution and why that might be the kind we're searching for.K.J. Ramsey is an increasingly feral mystic who is utterly devoted to the joy of being alive. She is a body-centered licensed professional counselor specialized in trauma recovery and an acclaimed author of prose and poetry, including The Book of Common Courage, The Lord Is My Courage, and This Too Shall Last, as well as the bestselling essay Substack Embodied. KJ advocates for fellow autoimmune patients and lives in Colorado with her husband Ryan, a hospice chaplain, and their two velcro dogs.K.J.'s Book:The Place Between Our PainsK.J.'s Recommendation:Project Hail MaryConnect with Joshua: jjohnson@shiftingculturepodcast.comGo to www.shiftingculturepodcast.com to interact and donate.

What if the darkest chapter of your life turned out to be the very thing that saved it? Sean Clayton is a serial entrepreneur, marketing expert, and founder of Myosin and Mindful Ventures. He has helped bring nine brands to exit totaling over a billion dollars through direct-to-consumer marketing. Today, he is building AI-first marketing products, investing in over 30 companies, and teaching people how to unlock their highest self through integrated spirituality and radical inner work. In this conversation on The Greatness Machine, Darius and Sean dig into one of the most remarkable origin stories you'll hear on this show. Sean opens up about childhood sexual abuse and the deep wounds it left behind, the people-pleasing and affirmation-seeking patterns it created, and the moment he tried to end his life before everything fell apart. He shares how a federal conviction and nearly three years behind bars paradoxically became the turning point that broke a cycle that could have killed him, and how he rebuilt his life from the ground up, starting at a car dealership in a halfway house with $200 in ads and a hunger to prove the world wrong. Sean also shares the spiritual framework he now teaches through the Miracle Academy, including how to get in communion with your inner child, why everything happening outside of you is simply a feedback loop of your internal world, how to recognize and create from life's patterns, and what it truly means to stop efforting through life and start walking in greatness.
