In this conversation, Dr. Marc Smith shares his journey from hedge fund trading in New York's financial district to building an integrated ketamine psychiatry practice in California. After three years in finance doing trading and sales, Dr. Smith made the bold decision to completely pivot his career toward medicine, driven by a desire for purpose and meaning that his financial career couldn't provide.Dr. Smith's path took him through Columbia University for medical school, followed by psychiatry residency at USC, where he discovered his passion for interventional treatments like TMS and ketamine therapy. His unique perspective, having worked in both profit-maximizing finance and purpose-driven healthcare, provides valuable insights into the challenges of maintaining ethical medical practice in an increasingly commercialized healthcare environment.Dr. Smith's practice, Clear Ketamine + Psychiatry, represents an integrated model where he personally handles psychiatric evaluation, preparation therapy, ketamine treatment administration, and post-treatment integration sessions.What You'll Learn in This Episode· Career transition insights - How Dr. Smith navigated the complete pivot from finance to medicine, including the challenges and rewards of choosing purpose over profit in healthcare· Mental health crisis analysis - Dr. Smith's perspective on factors contributing to rising depression, anxiety, and suicide rates, including social isolation, technology impacts, and healthcare access barriers· Treatment-resistant depression understanding - Why 30% of patients don't respond to traditional antidepressants and how ketamine offers a different mechanism through NMDA receptor antagonism and neuroplasticity induction· Integrated practice model - Dr. Smith's unique approach combining psychiatric evaluation, preparation therapy, ketamine administration, and integration sessions all under one provider rather than outsourcing components· Intentions versus goals framework - How to help patients set internal emotional states they're striving for (intentions) alongside specific, measurable functional outcomes (SMART goals) for comprehensive treatment planning· Ketamine as catalyst concept - Understanding how ketamine works like "jumpstarting a car" to improve mood and motivation, while ongoing therapy and lifestyle changes provide the maintenance needed for sustained improvement· Ethical practice building - Dr. Smith's mission to combat ketamine stigma through evidence-based protocols while addressing concerns about recreational associations and inappropriate use in the field· Private practice autonomy benefits - How owning your own practice allows values-driven decisions that may conflict with profit maximization, contrasting with private equity-driven healthcare models· Business building practical advice - The importance of talking to other practice owners, understanding it's a marathon not a sprint, and knowing your limitations to outsource effectively· Biopsychosocial treatment approach - Addressing biological, psychological, and social elements of mental health through medications, therapy, exercise, sleep, nutrition, social connection, and nature exposureEpisode 58 show notes:00:00:00 - Teaser: Profit vs. Purpose in Healthcare 00:00:35 - Episode Introduction00:02:03 - Dr. Smith's Background: From East Coast to Medicine 00:02:30 - Career Transition: Three Years in Financial Industry 00:04:12 - Discovering Psychiatry Through Clinical Rotations 00:05:32 - Why Psychiatry: Deep Relationships and Human Connection00:08:50 - Tools in the Toolbox: TMS, Ketamine, and Treatment Options 00:09:30 - The Leap: Stepping Away from Finance Success 00:11:17 - The Marble Metaphor: Chiseling Away What We Aren't 00:12:46 - Self-Actualization and Gratitude in Medicine 00:14:01 - USC Residency and Academic Reception of Ketamine 00:16:54 - Evidence-Based Medicine and the Slow Pace of Change 00:19:17 - Mental Health Crisis: Social Isolation and Technology 00:22:50 - The Invisible Nature of Mental Health Challenges 00:25:28 - Private Equity vs. Patient Care: The Business Tension 00:30:18 - Private Practice Autonomy and Values-Based Decisions 00:32:15 - Clear Ketamine + Psychiatry: The Integrated Model 00:36:11 - Treatment Protocol: Six Sessions with Therapy Integration 00:37:56 - Ketamine as Jumpstart: The Car Analogy 00:42:00 - Intentions vs. Goals: Internal States and SMART Outcomes 00:46:30 - Ethical Standards and Combating Ketamine Stigma 00:50:15 - Practice Building Advice: Talk to Other Providers 00:52:55 - Rapid Fire Questions: Book Recommendation 00:54:52 - Last Meal 00:55:52 - Pickleball Obsession and the Philosophy of the Game 00:56:50 - Time Travel00:58:46 - Alternative Career01:00:04 - Advice to 20-Year-Old Self01:01:53 - Contact Information and Practice Details 01:03:03 - Final Thoughts: Gratitude and Evidence-Based Care 01:04:20 - Ending and ResourcesThanks for listeningConnect with Dr. Marc Smith at:Website: https://www.clearketapsych.comInstagram: @clearketapsych, @marcsmithmdLinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/marcsmithmdGoogle Maps: https://maps.app.goo.gl/GCHVy8q183c7WvfLA

“Hello darkness my old friend I've come to talk with you again”. How many of you remember "The Sounds of Silence” by Simon and Garfunkel? We are showing our age on this one!Art Garfunkel (yes, that's his real name) said, “the song is fundamentally about the inability to communicate and, consequently, the inability to genuinely love one another.”Joseph experienced his own “Sounds of Silence” and darkness, his old friend. Nearly killed, thrown in the pit, sold into slavery, tossed into prison, and then the “sound of silence” waiting 2 years for a former prisoner to remember him before Pharaoh. Can you imagine the level of frustration? I mean we get frustrated when someone doesn't respond to our text right away. The nerve of some people!What was Joseph's response to the “sound of silence” he endured? Hmmmm. It's amazing how God had a plan and a purpose through it all to raise up one man, to save his own family and ultimately God's people. Read Joseph's story again in Genesis. I dare you!Bill Wilkinson

Are you still in alignment with the goals and manifestations you set at the beginning of the year, or has the busyness of life swept you away? Join Robyn Benelli for a deeply restorative, guided Reiki journey to look back at your last six months, connect with your past self, and evaluate what still holds life force for your path forward. Grab a pen and paper for automatic writing as we travel across the Bridge of Light to the River of Life and the Reflection Pool to uncover the deeper intentions behind your dreams. Key Insights Visiting Your Timeline at the River of Life: Standing by the primordial waters of creation allows you to non-judgmentally witness the version of yourself from six months ago. This perspective helps you see exactly what has changed, what has stayed the same, what has come to fruition, and how much you have grown in empowerment. Uncovering Deeper Intentions at the Reflection Pool: Often, the physical manifestations we ask for are just the surface layer. Looking into the reflection pool helps you discover the deeper soul needs beneath your goals, revealing whether an intention has naturally completed, softened, or is ready to transition into a new form. Aligning Across Time and Space: Activating the distance symbol during a guided journey enables you to securely connect with past and future versions of yourself. This deepens your awareness of your multi-dimensional timeline, helping you integrate past lessons so you can confidently take your "one next step" in the present. The Power of Automatic Writing in Reiki: Automatic writing bypasses the critical, analytical mind by letting the information channel directly with the Reiki energy. By putting pen to paper without evaluating the words, you allow your higher consciousness to reveal what your ordinary mind might be blocking. People Also Ask (FAQ) What do I do if my beginning-of-the-year goals have completely changed? It is completely natural for goals to shift, soften, or lose momentum over six months. A mid-year check-in is about recognizing how your healings and empowerments have changed who you are today, allowing you to move forward with what still holds life force. How does automatic writing work during a guided meditation? Automatic writing is the practice of letting information flow freely through you without processing or evaluating it first. In a Reiki channel, you simply keep your pen moving across the paper, trusting that the high-vibration energy is bringing forth direct guidance from your higher thought and intuition. What is the "Reflection Pool" in a Reiki journey? The Reflection Pool represents a sacred space in the third level of consciousness where you can see your true nature reflected. It allows you to look beneath the surface of your daily busyness to find the ultimate truths of your soul, revealing the authentic essence of what you are truly calling into your life.

Are you still aligned with the goals you set at the beginning of the year, or have you been swept up in a fast, urgent pace? In this session, Robyn and Colleen Benelli guide you through a mid-year Reiki check-in to reflect on your original intentions, clear hidden blocks, and see what still holds authentic life force for your path forward. Learn how to navigate the "messy middle" of your manifestation journey by using Reiki tools to quiet the external noise and return to your inner truth. Key Insights Evaluating Mid-Year Life Force: Intentions are fluid, and a mid-year check-in allows you to look back at your initial goals to see which ones still feel warm, steady, and vibrant. Some goals may be completed, some may have softened, and others may simply need a new form to align with your current spiritual growth. Eagle Vision vs. Mouse Vision: Grounding your manifestations requires shifting your perspective. Eagle vision lets you soar high above to see the entire trajectory of your path behind and in front of you, while Mouse vision drops you directly into the present moment, helping you navigate the immediate, practical details. Aligning the Multiple Minds: To accurately hear your inner wisdom over the loud, external noise of the world, Reiki helps coordinate your distinct centers of intelligence. By aligning your Divine Mind, analytical human mind, heart mind, instinctual gut mind (soul knowledge), and physical Earth mind (cellular memory), you bring your entire being into centered stability. The Healing Power of the Pause: When the pace of life becomes hurried and full of false urgency, simply pausing to take a deep breath and consciously choosing to receive Reiki changes your energetic frequency. This practice of "microdosing" Reiki trains the ordinary mind to automatically think from a deeper, more peaceful space. People Also Ask (FAQ) How do I know if my manifestation goals are still right for me? During a mid-year check-in, bring Reiki energy directly into your original intentions and listen to your inner truth. If a goal still feels warm, peaceful, or quietly persistent, it still holds life force. If it feels distant, heavy, or no longer relevant, you can use Reiki tools to gracefully let it go. What is the "messy middle" in a Reiki manifestation path? The "messy middle" is the phase where you are transitioning between letting go of old patterns and completely anchoring your new goals. It can feel confusing or unclear, but utilizing Reiki tools during this time helps bring clarity of mind, stability, and the patience required to let your intentions gestate naturally. How do you use Reiki to overcome over-giving and open to receiving? Many practitioners struggle with an imbalance of over-giving. To step into authentic receiving, practice stopping throughout your day, placing a hand on your heart if possible, and using a Reiki symbol while setting the conscious intention: "I receive." This microdosing technique retrains your system to accept support and opportunities.

What would it take for you to wade into the middle of a lake, hammer in hand, and build a bridge board by board? In this episode of One Second of Strength, Tanner Clark explores the life-changing power of setting intentions so strong that nothing — fear, self-doubt, or limiting beliefs — can stop you from reaching your goals.Tanner shares a powerful story about a photograph he discovered in college 20 years ago that still hangs in his office today, the emotional moment his daughter walked onto a high school soccer field with no cleats and no experience, and a practical 3-level intention-setting framework that you can apply starting today. • Why most people never reach their goals — and the one mindset shift that changes everything• How your brain is wired to keep you safe (and how to override it)• The difference between a limiting belief and a real obstacle• Tanner's 3-level intention framework: daily, mid-term, and long-term• Why writing your intentions down is scientifically proven to make you more focused, resilient, and persistent• How to use “one second of strength” to get back on track when life derails you • Set an intention powerful enough that you'll do whatever it takes to make it happen.• Fear, self-doubt, and imposter syndrome are temporary emotions — not permanent roadblocks.• Write down three intentions today: one for the day, one mid-term goal, one long-term identity statement.• Satisfaction lives on the other side of the fear you're avoiding.• You are the author of your life. Nobody else gets to write your story. Grab a pen and write down three intentions right now: • Daily Intention — Something small and actionable today (e.g., “I will not let my phone distract me.”)• Mid-Term Intention — A near-future goal you're working toward (e.g., making the soccer team, landing a new job).• Long-Term Intention — A statement of who you are becoming (e.g., “I am a person who always keeps the promises I make to myself.”) Post them somewhere you can see them every day.

In this disturbing episode, Chris revisits the case of Devin Fernandez, a former corrections officer who crossed the line from authority figure to alleged predator, luring a 14-year old girl for sex, during an undercover sting operation. Through graphic chat logs and tense interrogation moments, Chris exposes the calculated manipulation, grooming tactics, and dangerous mindset behind the encounter. But the investigation goes deeper. Chris pulls back the curtain on the justice system itself, comparing wildly different sentencing outcomes in cases from Florida to California — including the controversial plea deals that leave many asking whether predators are truly being held accountable. Why do some offenders face decades behind bars while others walk away with shockingly light punishment.

Have you ever run into a kid who needed some sense knocked into them? I'll never forget the first time I realized that my child's hubris was out of control. It's that moment when your infantile child looks at you and what you're doing and tells you that they know how to do it better. That statement was so utterly preposterous that words could not be formed in my mouth. I looked at my child, smiled, and thought that in time, the pressures of this life will mellow you out, and then went back to chopping wood. When I read Joseph's story, I think that boy needed a good slap upside the head. Sure, you had a dream, a prophetic dream, but you didn't need to tell all your siblings how they were going to bow down to you. So God directed a plan to set Joseph up in power from a position of humility, and that plan looks like death, misery, and slavery, all options we would not choose, yet Joseph kept his eye on the prize, knowing and walking with God. This Sunday, we examine the life of Joseph as an exile in Egypt and how suffering bears fruit in our lives that is impossible to receive otherwise. If you would like to read ahead, refer to Genesis 39-41. Pastor Matt McCarter

What lies beyond the veil? And what happens when we actually experience it firsthand? In this live session, Kara Goodwin shares personal multidimensional encounters including a profound direct experience of what she understood as the space-time continuum, and shares what she saw relating to how your vibrational frequency invisibly shapes every layer of your life. True consciousness expansion comes as a lived experience, rather than just learning things with our mind. But here's why I want to share my own multidimensional experiences of expanded consciousness with you: when someone shares an authentic account of stepping beyond the veil, it plants a seed in the listener. I've experienced this for myself, and I am happy to pay that forward. That seed then eventually begins to germinate and sprout, allowing them have their own multidimensional experience. Suddenly something they had only heard about and understood with their mind becomes a visceral experience they understand with their whole being. In this livestream, Kara shares: ✨ Personal experiences from beyond the veil and what they reveal about the nature of reality

In this episode of the Owaken Podcast, Hella and Lukis explore how filtering and censoring ourselves comes less from others' judgment and more from self-judgment, and how this blocks life force, passion, creativity, and authentic connection.They discuss fear of rejection and belonging, how childhood conditioning creates an “autopilot personality,” and why being visible, especially online, brings inevitable criticism that doesn't need to be taken personally.The conversation emphasizes becoming a safe space for yourself through self-love, interrupting negative self-talk, cultivating core desired feelings internally, and taking action by “trying on” confident authenticity to regulate the nervous system and using authenticity and service to attract the right community.00:00 Why We Self-Censor01:05 Intentions and Inner Safety01:51 Fear of Judgment Loop04:42 Social Media and Exposure07:02 You Are Not for Everyone08:30 Childhood Conditioning and Roles10:43 Self-Love Over Approval12:01 Masks Create Disconnection14:50 Find Your Niche and Play17:25 Building Owaken Without Examples19:34 Turn Inward, Trust Intuition21:08 Service, Purpose, and Worthiness24:03 Core Desired Feelings Practice25:52 Coach Yourself Up26:23 Interrupt Negative Self-Talk27:26 Try On Authentic Action29:13 Nervous System Exposure30:14 Spiritual Protection Reframe31:38 Find Your Best Environment35:09 Authenticity Creates Opportunities37:29 Aura and Regulation41:13 Stars and Inner Light42:43 Evolving Authentic Self43:24 Caring Less What Others Think44:47 Handling Judgment and Hate46:32 Closing ReflectionsFollow for more insights and inspiration:Follow Owaken:/ owakenbreathworkFollow Hella Omega:/ hellaomegaFollow Lukis Mac:/ lukismacLearn more about Owaken Breathwork:Owaken.com

School is out and summer is here—and for the first time since becoming a mom, I'm heading into this season with a real vision for the next 8 weeks. It feels so grounding to have certain things thoughtfully planned while leaving plenty of room for spontaneity, too. As a sensitive mom who gets easily overstimulated, I know summer can quickly become disorganized and chaotic if I'm not intentional about creating space for myself alongside all the family fun. So in this episode, I'm sharing what that looks like in practice, specifically: how I'm planning our family's summer (without overplanning it) the specifics of how I'll create space for myself as a mom the small nostalgic moments I hope my kids to remember Whether you're a parent planning summer with little ones or simply thinking about how you want this season to feel, I hope this inspires you to approach the months ahead with a little more intention. And if this kind of conversation resonates, my Substack is where I explore this season of life more deeply in real time—writing about motherhood, personal growth, slower living, life transitions, and what it looks like to create a life that feels more aligned and fully your own. ✨ Join me on Substack: blairbadenhop.substack.com

George Wright III explains that lasting success comes from small actions repeated consistently, not intentions, motivation, or one big decision. He connects prior themes—clarity, focus, discipline, and identity—to show how identity shapes behavior and habits automate it to create long-term results. He defines habits as automatic behaviors formed through the habit loop of cue, routine, and reward, emphasizing that environment often shapes behavior more than willpower. To build better habits, he recommends starting small, using habit stacking by attaching new behaviors to existing routines, controlling the environment to make good habits easy and bad habits hard, tracking activity, and reinforcing identity by keeping promises to yourself. He warns against trying to change too much, relying on motivation, unrealistic goals, and quitting after one missed day, and challenges listeners to commit to one habit for 30 days.00:00 Small Things Compound00:27 Intentions vs Habits01:06 Foundation and Identity01:52 Why People Struggle02:36 Define Habits Clearly03:19 Momentum and Compounding04:24 The Habit Loop05:51 Build Better Habits06:51 Environment and Tracking07:54 Identity and Sabotage09:13 30 Day Habit Challenge11:02 Wrap Up and Next StepsThanks for listening, and Please Share this Episode with someone.

Send us Fan MailIn this episode, Spencer Jones introduces the concept of “open loops,” explaining how unfinished tasks or thoughts can build mental clutter and stress. He compares it to having too many tabs open on a computer and shares how tools like brain dumps and to-do lists can help clear the mind and improve focus.
Sarah met a newborn baby, and she is still riding the high. We find out what it costs to get bodycam footage and why the government is so behind the times. Susie wants to know why no one is doing gender reveal parties anymore (not that we're complaining!). We discuss the Martin Short documentary, and think about why he is so positive and stable and how he is a comedic genius without the tortured soul. We hear about The Crash documentary on Netflix, and the story of Mackenzie Shirilla who drove her car into a building, killing her boyfriend and another friend, and whether we think the crash was an accident or intentional. We learn about the "Accutane nosejob" that happens to many people when they take the acne medication, and why Susie is convinced it happened to her.00:00 - Sarah's Joyful Encounter with a Five-Day-Old Baby6:02 - The Shocking Cost of Bodycam Footage and Government Inefficiency12:40 - Finding Support and Healing Through BetterHelp Therapy15:34 - Why Gender Reveal Parties Are Fading Away22:29 - Martin Short's Joyful Approach to Life and Loss33:04 - Analyzing The Crash Documentary: Accident or Intentional Act?47:03 - The Accutane Nose Job Theory and Podcast Wrap-upBrain Candy Podcast Website - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/Brain Candy Podcast Book Recommendations - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/books/Brain Candy Podcast Merchandise - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/candy-store/Brain Candy Podcast Candy Club - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/product/candy-club/Brain Candy Podcast Sponsor Codes - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/support-us/Brain Candy Podcast Social Media & Platforms:Brain Candy Podcast LIVE Interactive Trivia Nights - https://www.youtube.com/@BrainCandyPodcast/streamsBrain Candy Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastHost Susie Meister Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterHost Sarah Rice Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBrain Candy Podcast on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypodBrain Candy Podcast Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/braincandy (JOIN FREE - TONS OF REALITY TV CONTENT)Brain Candy Podcast Sponsors, partnerships, & Products that we love:This episode is sponsored by BetterHelp.

I'm going to Bali — and this episode is releasing the day we fly out. I wanted you right at the beginning with me! I recorded this just a few days before leaving, and this isn't a travel tips episode. It's a soul-level send-off. I'm sharing my spiritual intentions for the journey, what the astrology is indicating for this specific trip, and something called astrocartography — the astrology of places — and what it's pointing to for both me and my travel companion for this specific location. I'll walk you through the four areas we're moving through on the island, what the energy of each one feels like, and what we might experience in each. Plus I'm sharing the tools so you can look up your own astrocartography for your upcoming travel or even just where you live right now — it's one of those things you won't be able to unsee.And I'll leave you with a little something to sit with while I'm away.The full recap is coming when we get back. But first — come with me to the beginning.Show Notes: Episodes mentioned: Who Are You Living Into Next — https://www.joyfulmedium.com/blog/who-are-you-living-into-next-my-intuition-called-me-outAstrocartography tool: astrochart.co Astrology resource: cafeastrology.comGet Joy's Free "Sign Magnet" 3 Day Mini Course HERE https://www.joyfulmedium.com/sign-magnetJoy's Website: www.joyfulmedium.comInstagram: @JoyfulMediumTikTok: @JoyfulMediumFacebook: @JoyfulMediumFacebook Group: Joy's Soul SpaYouTube: Psychic Medium Joy Giovanni
In this message, we are going to jump into a three weeks series covering the life of one my favorite Biblical characters. We get to meet him as a teenager and my hope is that his story will encourage and inspire those who are in their teens and early twenties. But maybe not in the way you would expect... Our main character is Joseph, and he was definitely going to do great things. Right after some really terrible but necessary things. If you get a chance, read Genesis 37 and then buckle up.

Send us Fan MailIn the closing part of the episode, Spencer Jones reflects on the central theme of storytelling and emphasizes the urgency of taking ownership of your life narrative. He shares a personal moment of inspiration sparked by the question “If not now, when?” and encourages listeners to stop letting external influences define their story. Instead, he challenges them to consciously choose a story of growth, joy, and purpose, stepping fully into control of their own direction while continuing to learn, evolve, and improve along the way.
Send us Fan MailIn this part of the podcast, Spencer Jones talks about how we tend to fall into old habits when life becomes chaotic, and how those reactions don't have to define us. He explains that by seeing yourself as the “main character” of your life, you gain the power to choose better responses during stressful or overwhelming moments. Instead of repeating negative patterns, you can intentionally shift how you handle challenges, learn from each experience, and gradually build healthier ways of responding to life's “dumpster fire” moments with more calm, awareness, and growth.
Send us Fan MailIn this part of the episode, Spencer Jones reminds listeners that they are the main character in their own life story and have control over how they show up in the world. He encourages self-reflection without judgment, asking what kind of “hero” you are in your own journey. While emphasizing the importance of humility, he also highlights the need to recognize your own worth, power, and influence. He shares personal experiences about ego, hitting rock bottom, and learning the balance between staying humble and fully stepping into your own strength and purpose.

Join me LIVE for a soul-activating conversation about the real mechanics of spiritual transformation. We'll explore how your spiritual awakening isn't waiting for some big moment, but rather it's woven into the fabric of your daily decisions, moment to moment, day by day. In this livestream, we'll dive into: Why lasting spiritual growth doesn't come from New Year's resolutions or dramatic life changes How the "boring" everyday choices are actually the most powerful activators of your spiritual journey The truth about how we are constantly becoming, and how to work consciously with that process How to recognize the subtle inner shifts that signal you're stepping into your next level This is your reminder that you are already in the middle of your transformation. Let's talk about how to show up for it with intention. I'll be going live around 9:30 am EDT - join me! Your questions and presence make this conversation more powerful for everyone.

Letting go sounds simple until life throws a wrench in your carefully laid plans. Intentions are sneaky little culprits that can quietly turn into control traps, and HSPs feel that grip more intensely than most. When we resist what we cannot change, we hand our peace away without even realizing it. Learning to let go of what we can't control so it doesn't control us is the real work. Let go, or get dragged.
