Podcasts about healing journey

Send us a textEver wonder why you keep falling into the same relationship patterns? Or why certain childhood memories still sting decades later? The truth might be uncomfortable: you're living out scripts handed down by your parents—scripts they inherited from their parents before them.This episode dives deep into the generational patterns that shape our lives without our permission or awareness. As your host Corey Berrier reveals his personal journey, you'll recognize how childhood experiences before age seven program your subconscious mind, creating protective masks that once saved you but now suffocate your authentic self. Whether you became the overachiever, the people-pleaser, or the tough guy, these adaptations create a fracture between who you truly are and who you believe you must be to survive.The wake-up call comes when you notice the maddening repetition in your life—different partners but same fights, different jobs but same problems. That's not coincidence; it's your inherited script running on autopilot. But here's the empowering truth: what you inherit isn't your destiny. By making the unconscious conscious, taking responsibility without blame, and establishing daily practices that anchor you through life's storms, you can break free from these patterns. The healing journey isn't about becoming someone new—it's about becoming who you were before the masks.Ready to put down the generational burdens you never asked to carry? Ready to hold the pen that rewrites your story? This episode offers both the compassionate understanding and practical wisdom to help you break the chain and finally live authentically. Your inherited past doesn't have to determine your future. Subscribe, leave a review, and share with someone who needs this message—because freedom begins when we recognize the chains we didn't know we were wearing.

In this episode of The Sober Edge, Adriana Marchione joins me to explore how art in all its forms can be a powerful tool for healing and recovery. Adriana shares her journey from movement and dance into formal training in Expressive Arts Therapy, and how creativity helps us reconnect with ourselves, regulate our nervous systems, and discover unexpected insights.

Dr. Thomas Lodi delivers a transformative perspective on healing that challenges the very foundations of conventional medicine in this eye-opening episode. Instead of using astrological terminology like "cancer," Dr. Lodi refers to these conditions as "Chronically Fermenting Cells" (CFCs) - a term that accurately describes what's happening in the body at a cellular level.From his 21 years of experience at Oasis of Healing in Arizona, Dr. Lodi shares why his approach differs fundamentally from both conventional and many alternative practitioners. While his clinic offers similar modalities to other integrative centers (ozone therapy, vitamin C, etc.), the crucial difference lies in properly implementing these treatments within a comprehensive plan that addresses why the body produces CFCs in the first place. This focus on prevention and sustainable healing sets his methodology apart in a field where recurrence is all too common.The episode takes a serious turn when Dr. Lodi discusses the troubling pattern of truth-tellers in medicine being silenced. Using careful language, he references numerous physicians who practiced integrative medicine and faced severe consequences for challenging mainstream narratives. His passionate call for collective resistance against medical censorship reminds listeners that "we are the elephant" - the 99% who have the power to refuse going where we're led.Dr. Lodi masterfully deconstructs medical terminology around conditions like ulcerative colitis, IBS, and SIBO, revealing how conventional medicine creates complicated classification systems that obscure simple truths about health conditions. These conditions, he explains, fundamentally represent dysbiosis - an imbalance in the microbiome - rather than discrete "diseases" requiring pharmaceutical interventions that merely suppress symptoms wiSend us a text Join Dr. Lodi's Inner Circle membership and unlock exclusive access to webinars, healthy recipes, e-books, educational videos, live Zoom Q&A sessions with Dr. Lodi, plus fresh content every month.

In this week's episode of Dear Goddess, I'm sharing why sometimes the most spiritual thing you can do is.. have fun. ✨Yes, healing, self-love, and embodiment are sacred but so are the nights of laughter, spontaneous adventures, and saying yes to life outside of the “serious spiritual work.”From surfing and fiestas to tattoos and new friendships, I've been reminded that our joy is medicine, our pleasure is a portal, and fun is what keeps our nervous system regulated and our inner child alive. This episode is an invitation to reclaim play as a spiritual practice and remember that we came here to be human, not just to heal.Inside this episode, I share:

High performers are often praised for their drive, precision, and reliability. But what if what looks like ambition... is actually anxiety? In this episode, Jean Dorff—founder of The Empowering Story and author of Broken Silence—explores a quiet truth many professionals carry: that what the world sees as excellence may actually be a trauma response. From over-editing emails to automatic “yeses,” we explore how fear-based striving can become a silent survival strategy. ✨ This isn't about pathologizing success. It's about understanding the invisible labor survivors perform to stay “safe” in environments that reward compliance over authenticity. We'll cover: Why trauma survivors often perform for safety at work How hypervigilance becomes perfectionism in disguise What burnout looks like when it's rooted in self-erasure Three micro-boundaries that support nervous system healing How healing your work habits can shift workplace culture This is a space for reflection, not shame. Whether you're navigating leadership, rebuilding from burnout, or just beginning to unlearn old survival strategies, this episode is here to help you pause—and breathe.

From a childhood fire that left him with burns over his entire body to becoming a bestselling author and global speaker, John O'Leary's story is one of resilience, faith, and the power of love in action. In this conversation, John reflects on the ordinary people who showed up during his darkest hours—family, teachers, and friends—whose courage and kindness helped him heal. His journey reminds us that we don't need a cape to be a hero; we simply need to choose love, offer kindness, and believe that even the smallest actions can change a life. With the upcoming release of his film Soul on Fire, John continues to inspire others to see their life as a gift and to live it with purpose.  Key Takeaways:  Love and kindness have the power to heal and inspire — even in life's most difficult moments.  Small actions can create big ripple effects that impact generations.  Courage often shows up in ordinary people who choose to step forward.  Community support plays a key role in resilience, reminding us we don't heal alone.  Each of us has a purpose to use our life for good and to lift others along the way.  Join us for the Kindness Campaign and help create a ripple of compassion in your community!

Playing with fire and gasoline, John created a massive explosion in his home and was burned on 100% of his body. He was given less than a 1% chance to live.   This epic story of survival was first showcased in Overwhelming Odds, the book his parents wrote in 2006. It was this book that first invited John to embrace his miraculous recovery and share it with the world.   Today, John inspires tens of thousands of people at more than 100 live and virtual events each year. He partners with companies and organizations across fields, such as: sales, healthcare, safety, marketing, finance, faith, education and insurance.   Consistently described as “the best speaker we've ever had,” John's tireless schedule is a testament to the power of his message. His emotional storytelling, unexpected humor and authenticity make each presentation unforgettable.   John is a two-time bestselling author of On Fire: The 7 Choices to Ignite a Radically Inspired Life and In Awe: Rediscover Your Childlike Wonder to Unleash Inspiration, Meaning and Joy.   John's award-winning Live Inspired Podcast has more than seven million downloads and enjoys world-class guests such as Brené Brown, Mitch Albom, Jackie Joyner-Kersee and Bob Costas.   Amazingly, John's story is taking on a new form: a full-length feature film starring Joel Courtney, John Corbett, and William H. Macy. SOUL ON FIRE will be release in theaters nationwide on October 10, 2025.    Regardless of his professional accomplishments, John considers his greatest success to be his marriage to his wife Beth, their four children and his relationships with friends and family.    Connect with John O'Leary at:  https://johnolearyinspires.com/   https://soulonfiremovie.com/    https://www.facebook.com/JohnOLearyRisingAbove  https://www.linkedin.com/in/john-o-leary-08b2805/   https://www.instagram.com/johnoleary.inspires/,   https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCRXJIPZAni0_zakjCFh5VTQ    Connect with Dr. Michelle and Bayleigh at:  https://smallchangesbigshifts.com  hello@smallchangesbigshifts.com  https://www.linkedin.com/company/smallchangesbigshifts  https://www.facebook.com/SmallChangesBigShifts  https://www.instagram.com/smallchangesbigshiftsco    Thanks for listening! Thanks so much for listening to our podcast!

From spinal paralysis to global healer, Dan Metcalfe's story is one you'll never forget.

In this episode, Dan shares his unbelievable journey, the 7 Pillars of Natural Health, and how you can move from survival to thriving—no matter what you've been through.

Where healing truly begins is often not with answers—but with a question. In this episode, we explore what it means to begin your healing journey after sexual trauma. From the importance of safety and nervous system readiness to the power of narrative reclamation, you'll learn why healing isn't about rushing or rehashing, but about choosing how and when your story wants to be heard.

In part 2 of this powerful conversation, Charna sits down again with Ariella Daly: dream worker, animist, and beekeeper — to continue exploring how dreams can become profound guides for healing, recovery, and transformation. Ariella shares more of her personal path, weaving together the wisdom of dreams, ritual, and the natural world to show how the subconscious can support deep repair after trauma.  Together, we discuss practical tools for reclaiming your body, rebuilding your relationship with eros and creativity, and reconnecting to nature as a source of restoration. Ariella also offers insights into sensory practices, embodiment techniques, and how to integrate dream work into everyday life so it's not just a nighttime experience but a living practice. We also touch on the magic of collective dreaming — how shared dream spaces can reveal hidden truths, spark collective healing, and open up surprising pathways of growth. If you've ever been curious about how your dreams might be guiding you, this episode offers both inspiration and grounded practices to begin listening more deeply.

She built a $120 million real estate empire in just four years… and then realized it was destroying her. In this episode, I sit down with Jen Ullrich, a real estate entrepreneur who scaled RV and mobile home parks into a massive portfolio while secretly burning out from 100-hour weeks and 120 days a year on the road. The hustle that made her millions also broke her. So Jen walked away. She put her life in storage, spent seven months traveling the world, and turned to coaching, therapy, and even psychedelic-assisted healing to rediscover herself. Now she's back, building again - this time with purpose, strict boundaries, and AI as her secret weapon to avoid the grind. This is a raw, honest conversation about the hidden cost of chasing success and what it really takes to rebuild on your own terms.

It is possilbe to quiet your mind, you just need to be in awarenss of the round and round of your own brain. Once you see it, you can do something about it. Each week this month, we will be working on how to reduce the stress and anxiety caused by worry and rumination. But, for today, let's sit still for a few moments and connect with your mind and body. amyloganlife.com

After going through the motions of Christianity for five years, Zach decided to read one of the Gospels during the chaos of 2020. The book of John changed everything and Zach was on fire for the Lord! After reading only a few books in the Bible, Zach felt led to start a podcast about Jesus. With doubts, low expectations, and fear of mockery from his peers, Zach decided to lean in and launch “I Like Birds” in May 2020. He's now an author, speaker, writer and podcast coach. 

What happens when a woman, already stretched thin by life's demands, gets sick? Too often, she's left to navigate a maze of doctors, insurance companies, and well-meaning advice, alone. But as women's wellness advocate Rebecca Bloom reminds us, we shouldn't have to. In this powerful conversation, Rebecca shares her journey from corporate law to women's health advocacy, inspired by her mother's breast cancer diagnosis. For nearly 30 years, she has guided women through the overwhelming realities of the healthcare system, offering them clarity, strategy, and most importantly, support. Together, Nicola and Rebecca dive into the practical and emotional tools every woman should know when facing a health challenge: Why appointing a personal “Chief of Staff” can be a game-changer for managing care. The importance of reaching out to HR, case managers, and providers before problems arise. How to choose insurance the smart way — starting with your doctors, not the price tag. Why you should never “panic pay” medical bills (and how to catch common errors). How to set boundaries with others and protect your energy during recovery. Finding balance between evidence-based medicine and complementary holistic care. Rebecca's legal expertise and advocacy work shine through as she gives women the confidence to ask for help, take control of their healthcare decisions, and reject the outdated idea that illness must be endured in silence. If you or someone you love is navigating illness, this episode is a must-listen. You'll walk away with tools to advocate for yourself, protect your energy, and build a strong support system around you — because healing should never be a solo journey.

In this episode of the UnabridgedMD Podcast, Dr. Isabelle Amigues sits down with Holly Gould to share her remarkable story of struggle, perseverance, and healing. After seeing more than a dozen doctors who couldn't provide answers, Holly felt she might never find relief. She recalls telling her husband, “If this person can't help me, I'll just have to live like this.” Out of options, she turned to Google—and that search led her to Dr. Amigues.Together, they explore what it means to be truly heard in a medical setting, how documenting every symptom—big and small—was key to unlocking proper treatment, and why compassionate follow-up, like Dr. Amigues' personal check-in call one week later, made all the difference. Holly describes how the right medication helped her day-to-day pain and how, for the first time in years, she sees a hopeful path toward remission.The conversation also highlights Dr. Amigues' philosophy: “Sometimes you can be a lot better, but it's not perfect. I want more than just a lot better.” For her, remission is always the goal—and fighting for her patients means never settling for less.Whether you're living with chronic illness, searching for a doctor who truly listens, or simply looking for hope in the healing journey, this episode offers compassion, empowerment, and a reminder that doctors who care are doctors who heal.Topics Covered:Why being truly heard matters in patient careThe turning point when Holly nearly gave up hopeHow documenting every symptom led to answersThe impact of personal follow-up calls from a doctorDr. Amigues' mission to help every patient reach remissionShifting from “just getting by” to true healingTune in to discover how persistence, compassion, and advocacy create the foundation for real healing—and why patients deserve more than “just a little better.”Thank you to special guest, Holly Gould, for sharing her story. Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/hollygould_realtor/

Is your drive to achieve, please, or protect coming from a wounded part of you, rather than your true Self? Josh Trent welcomes Richard Schwartz, Creator of Internal Family Systems, to the Wellness + Wisdom Podcast, episode 767, to reveal why there are no “bad parts” within us, how trauma freezes pieces of our psyche in the past, and how to free yourself from legacy burdens passed down through generations. In This Episode, Richard C. Schwartz Uncovers: [01:10] What Is Parts Work? The definition of parts work. Why all parts of ourselves are valuable. How trauma freezes us in the past. Why we try to escape our parts to avoid feeling their pain. The role of exile and protector parts. How the firefighter parts try to get us away from our feelings to protect us. Resources: Richard C. Schwartz [07:45] The Difference Between Your Part and Your Self How each of us has an essence that is the Self. Why children take on different roles within their families to protect themselves. How we can heal the critic part. [13:40] Parts Work Isn't Inner Child Work Why thinking and feeling create different results. Why inner child work is not the same as parts work. How becoming the primary caretaker of our younger parts frees our partner from doing that for us. Resources: No Bad Parts by Dr. Richard Schwartz [17:20] Passive Vs. Active Parts Work How spiritual traditions teach how to observe our parts from a passive place. Why we're naturally inclined to listen to our parts as if they were our children. How 80% people who participate in plant medicine ceremonies tend to do the parts work after. The 8 C's of leadership. Resources: Michael Mithoefer MD [22:10] There Are No Bad Parts How Carl Jung impacted Richard's work. Why Carl Jung wasn't an active leader. How Richard used to believe some parts were bad. Why working with murderers and sex offenders showed him that there were no bad parts. How he had to work on a part of himself to turn judgment into compassion. Resources: Fritzi Horstman (Compassion Prison Project) [29:35] You Can't Save Your Parents How Josh healed a part of himself that needed to control others.

Why Josh's younger part believed sex was bad and shameful. How legacy burdens are passed down from generation to generation. Why Josh learned from his dad what sex was.   [50:45] Are You a High Achiever? It Could Be Your Wound... Why we need to continue to have conversations with the parts we're healing. How Richard worked on his achiever part. Why we can turn our protector parts into parts that serve us. How 90% of all businesses and buildings built come from men trying to prove themselves to their fathers. Why healthy growth comes from the self. The importance of self-leadership in the evolution of the world. Resources: 503 Paul Levy | Wetiko: Break Free From Collective Mass Psychosis [59:55] The Rise of IFS Therapy Why Richard is asking for guidance from God. How he developed IFS while working in psychiatry. Why we can have entities attach to us that are not our parts. How he's trying to bring IFS to the culture.

Why practitioners who don't have humility have the need for approval and praise. How some parts can imitate the true self. Why the self has a desire to bring healing without any agenda. How psychedelics, combined with IFS, bring back the self. [01:13:15] The Future of IFS Why it takes up to 7 years to become an IFS trainer. How many people nowadays teach an incomplete version of IFS. Why IFS brings light to the world.

We're Julietta and Graciela, and we're sooooo excited to invite you into our Cacao Conversations—your weekly dose of heart-opening chats, all served with a warm cup of cacao. You'll feel like one of the family during this podcast where we speak frankly, and humorously, about some of life's big questions. We share wisdom we've picked up along the way and wonder out loud about lots of life's mysteries. Whether we're diving deep into transformation, laughing at life's quirks, or simply talking about the weather (which is, like, a much bigger deal at this age, isn't it?!?), you get a front row seat to our sometimes crazy, mostly spiritual and always authentic lives. From sweat lodge ceremonies to sweaty teen socks, we cover it all. So, grab your favorite mug, fill it with cacao and join us for some profound laughter. Cacao Conversations is about empowering you to remember who you are and step into the life that feels authentically yours. How do you support others while maintaining your own boundaries? For many of us, helping others comes naturally—but knowing where to draw the line? That's where it gets tricky. In this powerful episode, we're diving deep into what it really means to hold healthy boundaries while showing up for the people we love. We talk about why setting boundaries is an act of self-love, how to recognize when your energy is being drained, and the guilt that often comes up when you finally put yourself first. We'll share personal stories, practical tools, and mindset shifts that help us stay grounded, balanced, and fully present without losing ourselves in the process. This conversation is for you if you've ever found yourself exhausted from giving too much, struggling to say no, or wondering how to take care of yourself and others without burning out. So pour your cacao, take a deep breath, and let's talk about creating relationships rooted in love, clarity, and mutual respect—without abandoning yourself in the process. Your cup is ready. Your journey is waiting. Let's sip, chat, and transform—together. Find out more at https://www.bodyandsoulevents.love/ Hey! Thanks for listening! If you liked this episode, please send us a message.

In this second part of The In Between, we go deeper into the space between where you have been and where you are going, the place that feels messy, uncertain and full of doubt. This is where decisions are made, boundaries are set and enforced and uncomfortable feelings rise up asking to be felt. Some call it limbo, but I believe it is more than that, it is a fertile pause, the ground where healing takes root and trust begins to grow. In this episode, we will talk about how to sit with the muck, allow yourself to feel and still hold space for the life that is waiting for you on the other side. If you are navigating your own In Between, this conversation will remind you that you are not stuck you are just in The In Between.   amyloganlife.com

So often we think healing is supposed to feel light and happy, but the reality is that it can be messy, repetitive, and downright uncomfortable. The church doesn't always give us language for this, and social media usually skips the hard parts, showing only the highlight reel of freedom. But real healing often means sitting in emotions that don't feel good, practicing rhythms that feel too simple, and learning to honor your body as the place where God Himself dwells. In this conversation, we'll talk about what healing actually looks like and why not feeling “good” doesn't mean you're doing it wrong.

I have been captivated by the concept of The In Between, that mysterious space between enduring your pain and trauma and fully moving forward. It is a place where it is easy to get stuck in familiar patterns of suffering, because they have become uncomfortably comfortable. Pain can feel like an old snugle blanket you have held onto for years and letting go feels strange, even a little like losing yourself.  But The In Between is also where transformation happens. It is where you begin to truly integrate all the tools you have learned along the way: setting boundaries, speaking up for yourself, saying no and meaning it, being gentle with yourself and leaning fully into your feelings.  It can feel scary to step into this space, but it is also so magical. It is here, in the tension between what was and what can be, that you learn to trust yourself and your healing.  Come with me as I explore this fascinating, powerful and sometimes uncomfortable place, The In Between.  linktr.ee/amyloganlife
