Podcasts about Firewalking

You've built a life that looks right. So why does it feel like nothing? You're not someone who gave up. You've worked harder on yourself than most people will in a lifetime. Therapy. Coaches. Books. Retreats. You've rebuilt yourself more than once. And you're still here. In the gap. Between who you know you're supposed to be and where you actually are. Still waiting for it to feel the way you always knew it could. What if the reason nothing has fully worked isn't about strategy? What if the parts of you that you learned to hide earliest in life are the exact parts your business, your relationships, and your sense of aliveness have been missing? Genea Barnes gets into all of it in this episode. Using the story of the Yellowstone wolves and a seventh-grade classroom moment that changed the course of her life, she traces exactly what happens when the most essential parts of a person go quiet. And what becomes possible when they finally come back. Here's what's waiting inside:

She could have died. And the first thing she felt in that hospital bed was relief. Not because she wanted to die. But because for the first time in years, no one could ask anything of her. Erin Keating was a high-powered television executive …smart, driven, decorated …and completely running on empty.  Her marriage was crumbling.  Her identity was her job title.  She worked through COVID until her lungs gave out.  And it wasn't until everything fell apart at once … the illness, the divorce, the layoff …that she found her way back to herself. In this conversation, Genea Barnes and Erin Keating talk about what it costs to be the woman who does everything, holds everything together, and quietly disappears in the process.  They talk about midlife unraveling, the lie of having it all, and what it actually looks like to rebuild a life from the inside out …as a single mom, a solopreneur, and a woman finally done “being good.” This episode holds the kind of truth most people are too polished to say out loud:

She got everything she worked for. Then she quietly walked away from all of it. Genea Evola dreamed of being a news reporter from the time she was a little girl. She wanted to be seen. She wanted to tell the truth. She wanted to matter. Then she got the job. And the first thing it asked her to do was use her voice to harm people. That moment in a Flint, Michigan newsroom didn't just end a career. It sent a signal straight into her nervous system: being seen is dangerous. And she spent the next decade hiding behind every corporate brand she could find, executing brilliantly for everyone except herself. In this episode of Be the Wolf, Genea Barnes sits down with Jenna Evola, founder of Evolve Systems, for a conversation that starts with AI and personal branding and goes somewhere much more honest. Because you can't talk about building an authentic brand without first asking the question nobody wants to answer: Who are you, actually? And when did you stop letting people see it? Here's what this conversation pulls into the open:

She thought her communication was fine. It was the one thing quietly dismantling everything she was trying to build. Genea Barnes was likable. People loved being around her. She was warm and easy to be around. And for years, she told herself that meant she was a good communicator. But her art career never took off. Her business kept shapeshifting to match everyone else's opinions. The man she was falling in love with remained a near-stranger after months of being together. And she didn't understand why. The answer wasn't a skill gap. It wasn't confidence. It was something older and quieter than either of those things. Somewhere along the way, she had learned that saying what she truly thought, asking what she actually wanted to know, and letting people see the real thing inside her came with real consequences. So she adapted. She filled the silence with the “right” words while keeping the true ones locked away. And that one learned pattern cost her more than she knew. This episode goes inside that pattern and what finally changed. Here's what's waiting in this conversation:

She scaled to $9 million. Then watched it disappear in three months. And she spent six months trying to rebuild the exact same broken thing. Tara Stubbins didn't plan to be a CEO. She left high school at 15 to chase rock bands across Canada. Two decades later, after managing world tours with the Rolling Stones, Lady Gaga, and Drake, she fell backwards into entrepreneurship. And she built something real. Then she lost it. Fast. What came next was harder than the collapse. It was the six months of brute-forcing a restart, blaming everyone around her, and refusing to look at what was actually happening. The market was different. The time was different. She was different. But she kept trying to run the same play. And it kept breaking in the same place. The moment she stopped asking "whose fault is this?" and started asking "how did I create this?" is where this episode begins. Here's what nobody tells you about rebuilding a business that failed:

Firewalking might sound extreme, but it reveals powerful lessons for estate agents. Sarka Wilde shares how mindset, resilience and handling fear influence fees, listings and confidence. Shift from scarcity to abundance thinking and learn to present your value with conviction to win more business.

There's a version of success that looks like you're winning and feels like you're drowning. This episode is about that. Genea Barnes just returned from hiking to Everest Base Camp. She trained. She paced herself. She chose slow and steady when everyone else was sprinting. And still, at altitude, her body said no. Her oxygen dropped to 62. She got helicoptered out. But here's what she came home knowing: the way she showed up on that mountain was the opposite of how she'd spend her life showing up in our businesses, our relationships, and our health. Push, crash, recover, push again. Call it hustle. Call it drive. The body knows what it really is. Instead, she showed up steady, consistent, and she was willing to listen.  This is not an episode about giving up. It's about what becomes possible when you stop performing endurance and start building real momentum. The altitude stripped everything back and left four truths that are going to stay with you:

She sat down at a piano at seven years old and played a song she had never learned. Both hands. First try. Every adult in the room went silent. That was the moment Debby Meadows discovered what she was made of. And it was the moment other people decided what that gift was for. In this episode, Genea sits down with artist, musician, and educator Debby Meadows for a conversation about what happens when the most alive part of you becomes someone else's resource.  Debby grew up in a high-control religious environment where her extraordinary musical gift was celebrated and claimed in the same breath.  She gave everything she had, for free, to a system that called it holy. And somewhere along the way, the music stopped being hers. Then it stopped altogether. For almost twenty years,  Debby didn't touch an instrument. Not because life got busy. Because owning her gift had become too dangerous. This is the conversation for the creative, the over-giver, the devoted one who has quietly wondered why the thing that once made them feel most alive now feels like a distant memory. Here is where this episode cracks open:

She did everything right. Followed every rule. Protected every job. And it cost her her friends, her freedom, and her peace. Genea Barnes grew up in a home where the rules changed without warning. So she did what made sense … she became the best rule-follower she had ever seen.  And when something threatened the structure of the rules, she controlled the people breaking them. She reported coworkers. She went around friends' backs. She maneuvered quietly from the background and called every bit of it doing the right thing. It wasn't until decades later that she understood what it had actually cost her. Not just the friendships. Not just the peace. But the freedom she didn't even know she was desperate for. This episode is one of Genea's most honest confessions yet. Pull up a chair for the parts of this story nobody says out loud:

He walked out of that meeting and thought: this is a life sentence I never agreed to. Young Han was a CFO in Silicon Valley, building the kind of startups that made people nod with respect. He had the title, the funding, the accolades. And he was quietly, deeply depressed. He didn't recognize it as depression. It just looked like going through the motions, gaining weight, losing his spark, and pretending everything was fine. Then he sat across from a financial planner. Four hours. A responsible retirement strategy. And a slow realization that the plan amounted to: live a kind of shitty life for 25 years, hope to afford another shitty life for 25 more, and pray you die before the money runs out. That was the crack. In this episode, Genea sits down with Young Han, CFO, entrepreneur, father of two, to trace the full arc from that meeting to a five-year sprint that rebuilt everything.  They talk identity loss, the loneliness of evolving, and what it actually costs to stop performing someone else's version of enough. Four moments from this conversation that don't leave you:

You said the thing. You asked for what you needed. And somehow... nobody heard you. That's not a communication problem. That's something deeper. In this episode, Genea Barnes gets radically honest about a lifetime of feeling unseen … from a music teacher who shamed her out of singing, to a sexual assault at age seven that wired her nervous system to believe that using her voice was dangerous.  She traces how that one belief quietly shaped every relationship, every sales call, every conversation … until she started healing it. This is the episode that makes you look at your whole life differently:

She didn't just lose everything. She lost everything she'd spent her whole life trying to become. Kirsten Franklin entered this world with the odds stacked. Adopted by white parents in a homogenous neighborhood in the 1970s. Neurodivergent in a world that had no framework for that. Straddling two financial realities after her parents divorced — one where money was easy, one where everything was a struggle. She made a decision early: she was going to make F-you money. She was never going to be poor again. So she became a lawyer. And then a colleague systematically dismantled her career. Then the 2008 financial crisis hit. Then her license was suspended. Then she found herself a single mother with an infant and no place to live. The universe, as Kirsten tells it, had been tapping her on the shoulder for years. She just didn't listen. So it took everything. In this episode, Genea and Kirsten trace the full arc … from a childhood of feeling unwanted and out of place, to the ego-driven climb, to the total collapse, to the woman who now wakes up like a kid on Christmas morning and helps high-achievers become unfuckwithable.  They talk about control, denial, the difference between intellectual knowledge and embodied change, and why your leaky vessel has to shatter before it can hold anything worth having. Four moments from this conversation that don't leave you:

She had hundreds of books sitting in her hallway. And she still couldn't let herself be seen. Genea Barnes traveled the country photographing ghost bikes. She ran a Kickstarter. She finished the book. But when it came time to put it into the world... she couldn't do it. Not because the work wasn't good. Because being seen came with consequences she hadn't healed yet. In this episode, Genea tells the full story of that project and uses it to crack open something most people never talk about. Procrastination isn't laziness. It's not a discipline problem. It's what happens when your nervous system learned that joy, creativity, and being fully seen weren't safe. If you're a creative or entrepreneur who can do everything for everyone else but freezes on the things that matter most to you... this episode will change how you see yourself. Here's what the ghost bikes taught her about all of it:

The worst inner demons don't start out looking like demons. Lilia Bogoeva was 12 years old when she found her first sense of control. She called it a "project." The world would later call it anorexia. And for a little while,  it actually felt like freedom. This is a conversation about how our survival strategies start out as gifts. How the restrict/explode cycle isn't a flaw in your character, it's a nervous system doing what it was taught to do. And how creative expression might be the most underrated path back to yourself. Genea and Lilia trace the full arc: eating disorders, substance abuse, identity fragmentation, emotional restriction, and the breakthrough that happened when Lilia stopped trying to feel the "right" emotions and started letting them move through her.   Four moments from this episode that stay with you:

She did ten years of therapy, ayahuasca ceremonies, shamanic healings, and coaching. The good feeling still kept fading. In this episode, Genea Barnes shares the quest that built Be the Wolf. Not the polished version. The real one. Growing up inside neglect, abuse, and trauma, she spent decades touching joy and losing it again. She chased every tool, every modality, every framework that promised change. And she kept cycling back to the same muck, the same heavy feelings, the same quiet voice saying nothing is ever going to work for me. What she eventually discovered wasn't on any healer's menu. It was a layer beneath the worthiness work, beneath the trauma processing, beneath everything the gurus teach. And everyone has their own unique version of it. Here's a look at what lives inside this episode:

She didn't stay because she was weak. She stayed because leaving felt like throwing away everything her family sacrificed to give her. Alenka Kyslik is the daughter of Soviet immigrants who fled in the middle of the night for a better life. That story became her nervous system's operating code. Opportunity meant safety. Achievement meant survival. And saying no to either felt like a betrayal of everything they crossed an ocean to build. So she stayed. Through the body disconnection. Through the out-of-body driving moments. Through the week she couldn't get off the floor. Through the boss who told her, "I could give you a green card, but I know you'll leave." She stayed, because her nervous system didn't know there was another option. This isn't a burnout story. It's a story about the belief underneath the burnout. And what becomes possible when you finally see it for what it is. Here's what Lenka's story quietly teaches you about your own:

If you want a life massively different than the one you grew up in, you're kind of f^cked. Unless you know how to dismantle the cage. Genea doesn't hold back in this one. She walks through the brutal truth most people don't want to hear: the dynamics you learned in childhood … how you got safety, love, attention, needs met … are the exact dynamics you're replicating in your business, relationships, and health.  If you grew up scrambling for needs that were always slipping away, you're still scrambling.  If you grew up keeping things casual and safe because commitment felt dangerous, you're still doing that too.  The way you dealt with the world as a kid is how you're still dealing with the world. And it's why your business feels stuck, your relationships feel hollow, or your success never feels like enough. Genea shares her own story … growing up with an unpredictable mother who told her hunger was "a figment of your imagination," and a stepdad who brought stability but stayed casual, never fully showing up.  That became her model: casual equals safe but incomplete, committed equals anxious and never enough.  And she repeated it everywhere … in romantic relationships, in jobs, and most devastatingly, in her business. In this episode, Genea reveals:

Peace and harmony looked like an empty apartment and a recliner. That's when he knew something was wrong. Dave Shotgun Shell spent decades chasing adrenaline … football, MMA fighting, even karaoke when his body couldn't take the hits anymore.  After multiple concussions and near-death experiences starting at age two, he subconsciously became addicted to intensity.  But when the crashes started outweighing the highs, he swung hard in the opposite direction: two hours of meditation daily, seeking peace and harmony.  What he got instead was an empty apartment, a divorce, kids who lived elsewhere, and an isolated existence with nothing but four white walls and a recliner.  He had achieved perfect peace. And zero impact on the world. This conversation with Genea digs into the cost of extremes, and what happens when you finally stop escaping into either adrenaline or spirituality, and start living from the middle. Dave and Genea explore:

“I really want to… but I can't.” That sentence sounds harmless. But it's quietly shaping your entire life. In this episode, Genea Barnes tells the truth about why so many high-functioning people struggle to say what they actually want … and how fear, childhood conditioning, and survival patterns turn honesty into excuses.  This isn't about time management or boundaries. It's about authenticity… and the cost of losing it. This episode moves through moments you'll recognize in your body:

You can't ride the middle between joy and bitterness. Rachel Martin thought she could. She thought if she just held it together, stayed grateful, did everything right, the chaos would fix itself. But the truck got repossessed. The finances were abysmal. And she kept saying "it is what it is" like it was protection, when really, it was surrender. The wake-up call came on a winter road in Minnesota when she heard: You have to choose. Not someday. Not when things get better. Now. This conversation is about the moment you stop tolerating and start owning your life. Rachel opens up about the messy middle, the emotional stages of taking responsibility, and what it really means to choose truth over comfort.   Here's what unfolds in this episode:

She held his hand while he died. Genea was four years old. He was a Vietnam vet. A junkie. And the only person around who made her feel loved. Her mom was emotionally unavailable, physically abusive, and gaslighting her constantly. So this man up the street became her best friend. He gave her what her mom couldn't. Belonging. Encouragement. Safety. And then he overdosed. And she watched him die. That was just the beginning. Trauma stacked on trauma until Genea's entire nervous system was wired for one thing: survival. She never wanted her trauma to define her. But it did. It defined every job she took. Every relationship she stayed in. Every dollar she made. She couldn't make more money than her mom. She couldn't step into what she wanted. She couldn't hold joy when she found it. In this raw solo episode, Genea opens up about:

Introduction to Achieving Self-Actualization The Hidden Battle Behind Success You can have the six-figure career, the family, the body, the house... and still feel something's missing. That's the silent battle most high-achieving men face. You've climbed the mountain, but instead of peace at the peak, you find... emptiness. A sense that something deeper remains untouched. That, my friend, is the call to self-actualization. For me, that call came in the most unexpected way...while gasping for air under the crushing weight of an avalanche. One moment, I was charging down the slope. The next, everything went white. In that suspended silence, buried in snow, I realized: if this was it... had I lived fully? That moment didn't just shake me. It cracked something open. In this article, I'll walk you through the warrior's journey to achieving self-actualization. We'll dismantle outdated self-help myths, reframe Maslow's model through the Warrior Mind lens, and give you a clear, practical path to deeper fulfillment. Achieving self-actualization is not a luxury...it's a necessity for high performers who want more than surface-level success. What Is Self-Actualization? (And Why Most Get It Wrong) Psychologist Abraham Maslow described self-actualization as the peak of human potential...the full realization of who you truly are. But here's where most people get stuck: They treat self-actualization as an achievement... not a journey. Maslow's famous pyramid places self-actualization at the top. But in truth, the pyramid isn't linear. Life constantly pulls us back down into survival, relationships, or esteem challenges. Fulfillment isn't a one-time destination...it's a practice. True self-actualization comes when you live in alignment with your highest values, not society's expectations. When your outer life reflects your inner truth. When purpose, presence, and power converge. And it demands one thing above all: courage. Achieving self-actualization requires consistent, conscious choices that reflect your authentic self rather than your conditioned self. Why Achieving Self-Actualization Matters More Than Ever Without achieving self-actualization, success becomes a prison. I know what it's like to chase money, status, and validation. To be driven by fear of being "not enough." I also know what it's like to shatter those illusions...and step into a life powered by purpose. When you align with your true self: > You stop performing and start living > Your relationships deepen > Your energy expands > You become unshakeable...no matter what life throws your way For me, that shift began in the fire. Literally. Firewalking during a shamanic initiation forced me to override decades of mental conditioning. Each step across the coals was a step into a new identity: someone who chooses growth over comfort. Achieving self-actualization matters because your legacy depends on it. It gives you the clarity, strength, and freedom to live on your own terms. The Warrior's Fulfillment Ladder (Maslow Reimagined) Maslow's Level Warrior's Challenge Warrior's Mindset Shift Gregg's Story Anchor Physiological Needs Prioritizing health, breath, movement "My body is my foundation for power" Overcoming asthma through fitness Safety Needs Facing fear, instability, risk "Uncertainty is where growth lives" Buried in an avalanche and reclaiming presence Love/Belonging Building aligned tribes "I am worthy of authentic connection" Healing from divorce by finding new brotherhood Esteem Detaching from ego, external validation "I create my own worth" From insecure teen to confident coach Self-Actualization Living truth, embodying purpose "I am here to serve and evolve" Firewalking, shamanic work, coaching transformations Common Blocks on the Path to Fulfillment Let's be real. Most men sabotage achieving self-actualization without realizing it.

In this episode, we explore how bold, unconventional challenges can fuel personal and professional transformation. Our guest, Jada, a former HR consultant turned CEO coach, shares how firewalking, glass walking, and arrow breaking taught her to overcome fear and build lasting resilience. We also discuss how addressing people-related business challenges, authentic networking, and embracing discomfort can unlock real growth. From gender dynamics in leadership to the power of like-minded communities, this conversation will inspire you to push boundaries, rethink success, and approach life with a mindset of continuous learning and adventure.--------- EPISODE CHAPTERS ---------(0:00:01) - Business Success and Empowering Women(0:09:04) - Building Authentic Connections and Growth(0:16:10) - Becoming a Firewalking Instructor(0:20:33) - Challenging Transformation Through Glass Walking(0:31:08) - Building Confidence Through Physical Challenges(0:39:09) - Exploring Personal Growth and Transformation(0:46:52) - Redefining Success and RetirementSend us a text

Welcome to Illumi-Nation:  Illumi-Nation serves as a transformative platform where a skilled psychic intuitive therapist (Susan Casey) and spiritual healer (Valerie Moon) collaborate to plant seeds of awakening in the hearts and minds of listeners. Our mission is to guide individuals on a journey of self-discovery, helping them break free from the amnesia that accompanies our earthly experience. Through a blend of therapeutic insights and spiritual wisdom, we aim to trigger a profound remembering, reconnecting individuals with the inherent truths buried within their souls. Join us in the exploration of self-awareness, healing, and the rediscovery of the timeless wisdom that resides within all of us. In this episode, Susan and Valerie sit down with Travis Preston to discuss the power of firewalking. Firewalking is a practice in which individuals walk barefoot across a bed of hot coals or stones without sustaining burns or injuries. It's often associated with various cultural and spiritual traditions, including religious rituals and personal growth seminars. The practice is usually conducted under the guidance of experienced facilitators who prepare participants both mentally and physically. As for the benefits attributed to firewalking, they are primarily psychological and symbolic in nature: Overcoming fear: Firewalking is often seen as a powerful metaphor for facing and conquering one's fears. By walking across the hot coals, participants confront their fear of fire and learn to trust themselves and their abilities to overcome obstacles.   Building confidence: Successfully completing a firewalk can boost self-confidence and self-esteem. It demonstrates to participants that they are capable of accomplishing seemingly impossible tasks with the right mindset and preparation. Mindfulness and focus: Walking across hot coals requires intense concentration and mindfulness. Participants must focus their attention entirely on the present moment, which can help cultivate mindfulness and reduce stress.   Personal empowerment: Firewalking is sometimes used as a tool for personal empowerment and transformation.    Cultural and spiritual significance: In some cultures, firewalking is a sacred ritual with spiritual significance.  Guest Bio and Contact information:   Travis has been traveling the world for more than 10 years seeking guidance and empowerment for himself to share with you. Seeking Guidance from Native American Elders as well as Spiritual Teachers and Masters of the Craft. With his experience, training, and expertise in coaching, firewalking, shamanic navigation, channeling, and speaking, he has molded an approach that simplifies and humanizes the unseen spirit world and healing.    His client's success is the most important thing to him. ​Travis understands the struggles and challenges that life can present because he's been there himself. He's walked through the fire metaphorically before bringing firewalking to his clients and knows what it takes to overcome obstacles and transform one's life. His journey with mental illness, addiction, and spiritual confusion has blessed him with the gift of compassion, understanding, and belief in those who show up and are ready, no matter where they are, or what they have been through.   Contact Travis Preston:    https://www.facebook.com/wolfpackhealing/ wolfpackhealing@gmail.com WWW.WOLFPACKHEALING.COM   Host Bios:    Valerie Moon is a psychic medium that has extrasensory perception. Most people within the spiritual community describe her healing modality as "shadow work". This energetic healing helps to shift deep-rooted patterns, behaviors, past life connections, ancestral traumas, or traumas that occurred in this current life. Valerie is also a soul seer and actively clears hauntings from houses, land, or people. She takes an active role in supporting many practitioners in understanding how to use their gifts. As a healer and mentor, she strongly supports those wishing to make a change and permanently shift into a higher vibration. Valerie holds a BA in Psychology as well as certifications in Breathwork and Reiki.    Susan E. Casey, MSW, MFA, is an author, a psychic intuitive mental health clinician, a certified bereavement group facilitator, a certified life coach, and a podcaster. Throughout the past 30 years, Susan has worked in hospice, in-patient, and home-based settings with teens and adults, and taught numerous courses to executive leaders and clinicians.

When he arrived in Hawaii, Max Freedom Long, an elementary school teacher claimed that some Native Hawaiians were practicing what he called magic. Long wrote that at first he was skeptical of this magic, but later became convinced that it worked. He devoted the rest of his life to creating theories about how the Native Hawaiians did what he claimed they did, and teaching those theories through the sale of books and newsletters. The Secret within the larger Secret was the fact that there was a third self connected with man and his two lower selves. The nature of this High Self (Aumakua) and the means of gaining its aid also belonged to the inner Secret. In this the kahunas were very far ahead in their findings. They knew that they could never do more than guess at the fact of, or nature of Beings higher in the scale of consciousness than the High Selves. Their guess was a traditional one. They guessed that the Higher Beings would be similar to the lower ones which they knew in man. They subscribed to the ancient axiom "As above, so below." They may have originated it, for no other psycho-religionists seemed to have had definite and detailed knowledge of the three separate and independent spirits which compose the man.

Harv Eker, The Four Seasons, The Omni Hotel, The Waldorf Astoria, Waikoloa Hotel, and many more.    If the idea of firewalking terrifies you, baffles you, or makes you wonder what the hell those people are thinking - give this episode a listen for a truly eye-opening look at the process and how it's a bonding experience like no other.    And if you're a business owner seeking a new or unconventional way to bring your team together (because we all know teams excel when they get along), Dave is holding a Firewalk Academy from October 3, 2023 - October 7, 2023.
