Ashley Roberts graduated from the 5x Certification and has built something really beautiful since then, a feminine embodiment movement practice rooted in dance, somatic work, and helping women find their way back into their bodies after years of operating purely from logic and achievement. In this episode, we get into what feminine embodiment actually means, because it gets thrown around so much online that it starts to lose its shape. Ashley breaks it down through Marion Woodman's work, through the masculine and feminine as water and mountains, and through her own story of feeling completely disconnected from her body until she went alcohol-free and found her way into a feminine embodiment workshop that changed her perspective.  We talk about what it looks like when someone is operating too much in their masculine: the hyper independence, the need for control, the inability to receive help, and why that pattern almost always comes from a place that once needed safety. Ashley shares how dance became her way out of her head and into her body, what her Monday night movement classes actually look like, and how this work completely shifted her marriage, her confidence, and her relationship with her own sensuality. We also get into the cyclical nature of feminine energy, how to know when softening is actually the right move versus when it's fear dressed up as surrender, and the very honest conversation about how alcohol was Ashley's old shortcut to the same thing dance gives her now, except one of them backfires and one of them doesn't.   INSIDE THIS EPISODE:  What feminine embodiment actually means, and why it has nothing to do with gender roles The signs that someone is stuck in hyper masculine mode, and why hyper independence is really about safety Why dance is one of the fastest ways to get out of your head and into your body How Ashley's marriage changed when she stopped trying to prove she was pulling her weight The difference between healthy surrender and using softness as a mask for fear How working with your cycle changes how you plan your energy across the month Why alcohol numbs the exact thing feminine energy is built on, the ability to feel   LINKS/RESOURCES MENTIONED Apply to be our next Thought Leader to master premium selling and thought leader positioning to publish your book and deliver your keynote onstage.  Find Ashley on instagram @sol_beginnings Euphoric the Club is the premier space to lose the desire for alcohol as you surround yourself with successful women who don't drink (and the women who are becoming them).

In this episode of the Raising Wild Hearts Happier Series, I sit down with Deb Porter, creator of Hearing Out Life Drama, to explore one of the most overlooked ingredients of wellbeing: feeling truly heard.Deb is a professional listener who believes many of us are carrying thoughts, emotions, and stories we've never fully expressed. When we finally have the space to be seen, heard, and understood—without judgment, interruption, or advice—something shifts. Clarity returns. Pressure releases. We reconnect with ourselves.Together, we explore:• Why happiness is often found in small moments, not big milestones• How many of us learned it wasn't safe to express joy• Why being deeply listened to is a form of love• The connection between authenticity and wellbeing• A simple nightly practice to help you notice what makes your heart singThis conversation is a gentle reminder that joy doesn't disappear—it waits for us. And sometimes the path back begins with listening. Resources Mentioned in This Episode Emotional Scale | Abraham HicksHearing Out Life Drama Blog Hearing Out Life Drama Who am I Now Free Guide (no email required)Deb's Prior Raising Wild Hearts Podcast Appearances:

Refusing to let his tragedy go to waste, Andrew became certified in ASIST suicide intervention to close this crucial knowledge gap.

I'm so glad you're here with us today. My guest is someone I know you're going to love — he's not only a brilliant physician but also someone who truly walks the talk when it comes to living a healthy, vibrant, plant-based life. Dr. James Thompson is a retired board-certified internist, allergist, and immunologist who practiced medicine for over 30 years in Chicago before moving to Sacramento to be closer to his grandchildren. About seven years ago, he adopted a whole-food, plant-based lifestyle — and that transformation inspired his brand-new book, FEARLESS: Eight Pillars for Living Longer, Healthier, and Happier. The book is built around eight key pillars — Food, Exercise, Avoiding toxins, Restorative sleep, Lessening stress, Engaging the mind, Social energy, and Spiritual connectivity. It's a practical, compassionate guide for anyone who wants to take charge of their health, no matter where they're starting from. Dr. Thompson is genuinely excited about this opportunity! I'd love to share and discuss my book, published last March, a practical, holistic health guide designed to meet readers wherever they are on their wellness journey. It's built around eight key pillars using the acronym FEARLESS: The book also includes several bonus chapters on topics such as cravings, COVID, GLP-1 agonists, probiotics, supplements, and relationships. It's available on Amazon. Dr. Thompson also serves as Medical Director for Healthy Living With a Vision Foundation, a five-year-old nonprofit organization providing health education and services to underserved communities throughout Chicago and the surrounding area. Over the past five years, we've hosted numerous in-person and virtual health events. Website: https://healthylivingwithavision.org/ Additionally, he is a specialized host for the Plant-Based Support (PBS, but formerly Plant-Based Nutrition Support Group- PBNSG), where I lead a virtual Allergy, Asthma & Immunity Support Group session every third Wednesday at 8:00 PM Eastern.

In honor of dry July, Karolina is debunking the most common myths and objections about going alcohol-free. What if everything you believed about "normal drinking" was a lie? Society puts "normal drinking" on a pedestal: the cultured person who enjoys just one glass of wine over a nice dinner. But is this achievable or even desirable?  It turns out that 60% of regular drinkers overdrink, and it's also been proven that 40% to 50% of our drinking is underreported. And drinking doesn't feel good - would you rather be someone who drinks normally and never gets the wake up call? Or would you rather be a person who gets the negative consequence, reevaluates alcohol, and wakes up to the life you were really supposed to live? When you join Karolina's 22-day Dry Bootcamp, you'll learn how to relax and have fun without alcohol, build a sustainable, alcohol-free lifestyle, and discover your deeper why. Plus, you'll get all the guides, rituals, and meditations to help you connect to your higher self. We start August 6th. Sign up for just $59! IN THIS EPISODE: Why "normal drinking" is actually a myth and why what society views as normal is often an unhealthy illusion The majority of people underreport their alcohol consumption by 40% to 50% (!), plus, what this means for your perceptions of "moderate" drinking How intuition and listening to your body's signals will shift you into greater confidence, courage, and purpose The REAL impact of even a single drink on your body (think disrupted sleep cycles and metabolic changes!) A sneak peek into Karolina's 22-day Dry Bootcamp, which starts August 6th. Break free from alcohol and align with your highest self.    LINKS/RESOURCES MENTIONED: Dry Bootcamp starts August 6th!

In this episode of Architecture, Design & Photography, Trent Bell sits down with architect and author Danish Kurani to discuss his latest book, The Spaces That Make Us: Why Design Is Broken and How We Can Create a Happier, Healthier World.  Trent and Danish explore the powerful ways architecture and environmental design shape our psychology, behavior, relationships, and overall well-being. From the spaces we grow up in to the cities we move through every day, the discuss how thoughtful design can influence how we connect, feel, and live. The Spaces That Make Us: Why Design Is Broken and How We Can Create a Happier, Healthier World: https://www.amazon.com/Spaces-That-Make-Us-Healthier/dp/1400249120 About Danish Kurani: Danish Kurani sees how buildings are failing to nourish people. After witnessing how poorly designed environments hold back people across the globe – from the middle of Manhattan to villages in India – he's made it his mission to remake architecture for human flourishing. His groundbreaking designs for New York City, Google, and communities on four continents prove that thoughtful architecture can unlock human potential. Named one of the World's Most Innovative Architects by Fast Company, Kurani has pioneered a human-centered approach that's transforming lives worldwide. His work spans from floating homes in disaster-prone areas to schools in informal settlements, always focusing on one question: how can architecture solve our most pressing social challenges?  A Harvard-trained architect and urban designer, Kurani's architectural ideas have been shared at leading institutions including Stanford, MIT, Harvard, and Columbia, and featured in TIME, World Economic Forum, and the Wall Street Journal. National governments recognize him as a leading voice in social impact architecture – not because he builds beautiful buildings, but because he builds spaces that work for real people.

I recently lost one of the greatest loves of my life, my soul dog Huxley.  He passed really unexpectedly on Memorial Day. He was 11 and a half. He was fine that morning. He ate breakfast, he cuddled with us, he sat in the sun while we were at the pool. By that evening, he was gone. He had massive internal bleeding and we had no idea anything was wrong until his gums went pale and we were racing across town to an emergency vet that Memorial Day night. What followed was four hours of the most tender goodbyes I've ever experienced, and then one of the hardest weeks of my life. I've been thinking a lot about what it means to grieve fully, to actually feel it instead of pushing it down and numbing it. I did that in my early 20s after a bad heartbreak, drowned myself in alcohol, and missed the whole thing. I shoved it down and it just kept showing up later as triggers and pain I hadn't processed. This time I felt all of it. The shock, the devastation, the beauty, the signs he's been sending us since.  I'm also sharing something I found in my journal from February, a few months before he died, where I had written about him without knowing what was coming. And what it made me realize about presence and about what being alcohol-free actually means at the deepest level.   IN THIS EPISODE How we lost Huxley and what those four hours of goodbye looked like The three things that determine how deep grief hits, and why losing a dog child can undo you completely What I did differently this time compared to grieving through alcohol in my early 20s, and what that cost me back then The signs Huxley has been sending us since he passed, and why I'm not calling any of them coincidences What I found in my journal from February that I wrote without knowing what was coming Why being alcohol-free is really just another way of saying you are awake to your life What alcohol actually takes from you, and why you feel the bad but miss all the good when you numb   LINKS/RESOURCES MENTIONED Apply to be our next Thought Leader to master premium selling and thought leader positioning to publish your book and deliver your keynote onstage.  Euphoric the Club is the premier space to lose the desire for alcohol as you surround yourself with successful women who don't drink (and the women who are becoming them).

Nicholas Epley is a mind reader. But he doesn't have ESP or practice hypnosis. He's not telepathic or clairvoyant. Sure, you could ask him to read your fortune, but you'd be better off with a Magic 8 Ball. When we say Nick is a mind reader, what we mean is he studies mind reading at the University of Chicago — studies, as he puts it, "how we make inferences about each other's thoughts and beliefs and attitudes, and mostly how we screw that up." Today, he makes small talk — and big talk — with Rufus about his new book, A Little More Social, which draws on the dozens of studies he's run with thousands of participants to show that talking to strangers, cringe as it may feel, can enliven your days, lengthen your life, and maybe even heal our politics.
