What if the reason conversations don't go your way has nothing to do with your words? In this episode of Communication Mastery, Dr. JC Doornick reveals why most communication breakdowns aren't caused by misunderstanding—they're caused by unmet and competing needs. You'll discover how hidden interpersonal needs drive behavior beneath the surface, and why traditional “effective communication” techniques often collapse under pressure. This conversation explores the neuroscience behind resistance, conflict, and influence, while introducing a practical framework for recognizing what people actually need in the moment. When you learn to listen for alignment instead of arguments, objections soften, conversations calm, and connection replaces friction. This episode offers a new lens on communication mastery for leaders, entrepreneurs, sales professionals, and anyone who wants stronger relationships. If you're ready to stop pushing and start aligning, this episode is for you.

We all like to believe we think for ourselves, but what if our most deeply held beliefs were actually engineered through social pressure and moral conditioning? The Cult We're All In explores the invisible science of belief and how high-control groups recruit and sustain members through psychological social proof. Using Georgia Clare's lived experience of escaping a structured religious organization as a lens, we pull back the curtain on the "cults" of modern society—from corporate culture to political echo chambers. This conversation isn't just about religion; it's about the science of why leaving a group feels like losing your identity and how to rebuild yourself from the ground up after waking up to the truth.   Connect with Georgia: ► Substack: / @georgiaclare ► Website: / www.georgiaclare.com ► IG: / Georgiaclare75   Follow Dr. JC Doornick and the Makes Sense Academy:► Makes Sense Substack - https://drjcdoornick.substack.com ► Instagram: / drjcdoornick ►Facebook:  / makessensepodcast ►YouTube:  / drjcdoornick MAKES SENSE PODCAST Welcome to the Makes Sense with Dr. JC Doornick Podcast.

Chances are, you work five days a week. Monday through Friday. And you probably don't think much about it, because that's just how work works, right? But who decided that five days was the right number in the first place? As it turns out, the modern workweek wasn't thoughtfully designed for focus, creativity, or even productivity. It was inherited from the Industrial Age, built for factory floors and time clocks, not knowledge workers and digital tools. So maybe it's time for a rethink. In Do More in Four: Why It's Time for a Shorter Workweek, researcher and work redesign strategist Joe O'Connor and journalist Jared Lindzon make the case that working less can actually help us do better work.

Heard Tolkien fans casually drop phrases like First Age, Second Age, or War of the Ring and thought… I have no idea what any of that means?You're not alone.In this episode of Fantasy for the Ages, Jim breaks down the Middle-earth timeline in a way that actually makes sense — no charts, no textbooks, no lore overload. Just the big-picture flow of history you need to enjoy Tolkien without stress.We'll cover:• How Tolkien organizes history into Ages (and why that matters)• What happened before The Hobbit (quickly, I promise)• The rise and fall of power in the First and Second Ages• Where The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings fit in the timeline• Why the War of the Ring is the end of an era, not just a battleThis episode is perfect if:• You're new to Tolkien and feel lost when people talk timelines• You've read the books but want the history to finally “click”• You've only seen the movies and want context for the larger world• You want understanding without memorization

Why I'm Not Happy Yet — The Power of Presence | Makes Sense with Dr. JC Why do so many people feel unhappy even while doing everything “right”—setting goals, visualizing the future, and chasing improvement? In this episode of Makes Sense with Dr. JC, Dr. JC explores the overlooked downside of personal growth culture: living for a better future while unconsciously rejecting the present moment. Through philosophical reflection, lived experience, and insights inspired by thinkers like Alan Watts, this episode reframes happiness, mindfulness, and presence. Rather than something you practice, control, or discipline yourself into, presence emerges naturally through awareness, wonder, and awe at the simple fact that you exist at all. This conversation dives into themes of mindfulness, awareness, consciousness, overthinking, fear, urgency, nature, and the illusion of separation—revealing why happiness is never found “later,” but only noticed now. If you've ever asked yourself, “Why am I still not happy yet?” this episode offers a perspective that may quietly change how you experience your life.

In the latest episode of The World of Marketing, Tom Foster sits down with Eiman Bassam, Founder & CEO of ESB Advertising, to break down how streaming TV advertising has evolved—and why lawyers and doctors can no longer afford to treat TV as a "branding-only" channel. This conversation challenges one of the biggest assumptions in marketing: that TV can't be measured. In this episode, you'll learn: Why programmatic streaming TV is now more measurable than traditional broadcast How ESB's AI platform, MACData, tracks performance down to the household level What actually drives ROI beyond cheap CPMs How AI is reshaping media buying, attribution, and even commercial creation Why "How did you hear about us?" is officially outdated If you've ever questioned whether streaming TV advertising really works - or struggled to connect ad spend to real revenue - this is a conversation worth your time.

If you've ever told yourself "I know I need boundaries, I just can't seem to hold them," this episode is for you. In Episode 4 of 6 in the Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents series, we explore why boundaries feel so hard — and why that struggle actually makes sense when you understand the emotional environments many of us grew up in. For children raised by emotionally immature parents, boundaries weren't neutral. They were emotional risks. Needs were often dismissed, minimized, or met with guilt, withdrawal, or conflict. Over time, many children learned that connection required self-sacrifice. In this episode, we discuss: What boundaries actually are (and what they are not) Why "just say no" advice often doesn't work How guilt, anxiety, and fear get tied to boundaries The role the nervous system plays in boundary-setting Common misconceptions about being "bad at boundaries" Why compassion — not force — is the foundation of change This episode isn't about pushing yourself to have stronger boundaries. It's about understanding why your body learned that boundaries weren't safe — and how awareness creates choice.

Why does life feel like a repetitive loop? If you are working harder than ever but still seeing the same mediocre results, the problem isn't your effort; it's your resonance. In Episode 133, Dr. JC Doornick breaks down the science of the Interface Response System (IRS) to explain why life doesn't respond to your wants, but to your consistent output. Moving beyond basic "Law of Attraction" cliches, this episode dives into the physics of frequency and nervous system patterns. In this episode, you'll learn: The Physics of Resonance: Why "your vibe attracts your tribe" is a biological reality, not just a catchy phrase. The IRS Framework: How to identify the internal signal you are unknowingly broadcasting to the world. Breaking the Loop: Why fixing outcomes is a losing game and how to retune the "source signal" instead. The Honest Echo: How to audit your current reality to understand your internal frequency. Stop chasing opportunities and start attracting them. Dr. JC Doornick reveals the physics of resonance and how your nervous system dictates your reality.

Andy and Randy bounce around to some of the bigger sports stories around Atlanta and nationwide.

The truck you drive can either protect your margin or quietly drain it, and most pros overestimate how much vehicle they really need. We walk through a practical, field-tested approach to choosing a pool service rig that balances chemical safety, daily ergonomics, and total cost of ownership. From compact cars with hitch carriers to mid-size workhorses and full-size comfort machines, we talk through what actually matters when you're loading chlorine, parking in tight neighborhoods, and making 20 stops before lunch.We dig into the real math on electric trucks versus gas and hybrids, including purchase price gaps, charging costs, and how route mileage affects payback. You'll hear why an open bed often beats a van for chemical service, when a van still wins for repairs, and how to avoid carrying excess liquid that degrades in the sun. We compare fuel economy between popular models, call out the surprise benefits of lower bed rails and shorter wheelbases, and share tips for keeping your truck organized without hauling a rolling warehouse.Reliability can swing more by model year than by badge, so we share a simple research process: check year-specific issues, confirm recall work, and look for warranty extensions on known components. Brands like Toyota and Honda often lead on dependability, but you should still verify the exact year you're buying. By the end, you'll have a clear checklist for test drives, load planning, and making a smart buy that fits your route, budget, and body. If this helped you think differently about your work truck, follow the show, share it with a fellow pro, and leave a quick review so others can find it.• weighing compact, mid-size, and full-size trucks for route work• pros and cons of vans for chemical service• using personal vehicles with dry chemicals and carriers• true cost of electric trucks versus gas and hybrids• realistic cargo needs and safe chemical storage• parking, ergonomics, and bed height for daily efficiency• reliability by model year, recalls, and warranty extensions• bSend us a textSupport the Pool Guy Podcast Show Sponsors!

In this week's episode of High on Home Grown, we're covering a mix of serious reform talk, strange police encounters, and some genuinely wild crime stories: Macky opens with a strong letter arguing why it's time to legalise cannabis in the UK, laying out the case for reform and why the current system continues to fail everyone involved. He then shares a bizarre BBC News story from Penzance, where a cannabis driver reportedly asked police officers for directions, one of those moments where reality feels like some people just dont think..... There's also a quick but worrying one, as gangs are now using drones to locate and steal cannabis farms, highlighting just how far organised crime is willing to go, and how growers are having to think defensively. Dr. Margaret covers an international smuggling case, with two men facing charges for allegedly recruiting women to traffic cannabis out of Canada. A grim reminder of how exploitation still plays a role in prohibition-driven markets. And John wraps things up with political progress in the US, as a Massachusetts bill to double the marijuana possession limit and revise the regulatory framework heads to a conference committee. A move that could bring meaningful change if it clears the final hurdles. Another packed episode full of reform debates, strange decisions, and stories that sound made up but very much aren't.

BBB accreditation can be confusing for local business owners. Some see it as a powerful trust signal, while others question whether it is worth the cost. In this episode, we break down what BBB accreditation actually means, the pros and cons of getting accredited, and when it makes sense for a local business to invest in it.If you want a clear, practical perspective to help you decide whether BBB accreditation fits your business and your customers, this episode will help you make that call with confidence.This episode is for educational purposes only and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by the Better Business Bureau.About Adam Duran, Digital Marketing Expert⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Local SEO in 10⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ is helmed by Local SEO expert Adam Duran, director of Magnified Media.

Shaun Morash and Tiki Barber discuss the narratives surrounding Giants quarterback Jaxson Dart, whether or not he has a problem with concussions, and if Saints QB Tyler Shough has looked better under center this season.

Many women describe a pattern they are never able to explain. They eat well, exercise consistently, and follow every recommendation they are given. Yet their weight fluctuates, their mood shifts unpredictably, and their focus disappears for weeks at a time. Anxiety creeps in. Depression settles quietly. Brain fog becomes normal. And eventually, shame takes over.This is not a motivation problem.This is not a discipline issue.And it is not “all in your head.”In this hol+ conversation, Dr. Taz sits down with reproductive psychiatrist Dr. Sarah Oreck to reveal why PCOS is not just a hormonal or reproductive condition, but a whole-body mental health story that has been overlooked for decades.Instead of viewing PCOS through isolated symptoms like irregular cycles, acne, or fertility struggles, Dr. Oreck explains how insulin resistance, inflammation, cortisol dysregulation, and androgen shifts directly affect brain chemistry, cognition, emotional regulation, and stress tolerance. She breaks down why women with PCOS experience significantly higher rates of anxiety, depression, brain fog, and eating disorders, even when routine labs appear normal.This episode explores how blood sugar instability alters neurotransmitter production, why inflammation may be a core driver of mood disorders, and how chronic stress and cortisol overload reshape the nervous system over time. Dr. Taz and Dr. Oreck also examine the role of medical gaslighting, delayed diagnosis, and the psychological toll of being told symptoms are imagined, exaggerated, or self-inflicted.From adolescence through fertility journeys, pregnancy, postpartum, and perimenopause, this conversation reframes PCOS as a condition that affects the brain, gut, metabolism, and nervous system together, not in isolation. It highlights why symptom masking often fails, why talk therapy alone is not enough during hormonal dysregulation, and why true healing requires integrated, compassionate care.You will learn why weight swings are not about willpower, why mood changes often track with insulin and cortisol rather than character, how gut health and microbiome shifts influence cognition, and what it means to become hormone-literate early, for yourself and for your children.Together, Dr. Taz and Dr. Oreck offer a clear, validating roadmap for anyone who has felt dismissed, confused, or trapped in a body that will not respond the way it is supposed to.Dr. Taz and Dr. Sarah Oreck discuss: • Why PCOS has a major mental health component that is rarely addressed • How insulin resistance and blood sugar swings impact mood and cognition • The link between inflammation and anxiety, depression, and brain fog • Why cortisol and chronic stress intensify PCOS symptoms • How medical gaslighting delays diagnosis and fuels shame • Why fertility journeys often uncover long-missed PCOS patterns • The connection between PCOS and eating disorders like bulimia • How gut health and microbiome shifts affect brain function • Why birth control can help some women and worsen symptoms for others • The importance of hormone literacy across the lifespan • How to advocate for yourself when symptoms are dismissed • Why healing requires integrated care, not isolated fixesAbout Dr. Sarah Oreck Dr. Sarah Oreck is a reproductive psychiatrist and the founder of Mavida Health. She specializes in the intersection of female reproductive hormones and mental health, with a focus on conditions like PCOS, fertility-related mood disorders, pregnancy, and postpartum mental health. Through clinical care, education, and community building, she works to close the gap between psychiatry, endocrinology, and whole-person medicine.Stay Connected:Connect further to Hol+ at https://holplus.co/- Don't forget to like, subscribe, and hit the notification bell to stay updated on future episodes of hol+.Follow Dr. Sarah OreckInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/sarahoreckmdWebsite: https://www.sarahoreckmd.com/ & https://mavidahealth.com/ Follow Dr. Taz on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drtazmd/https://www.instagram.com/liveholplus/Subscribe to the audio podcast: https://holplus.transistor.fm/subscribeSubscribe to the video podcast: https://www.youtube.com/@DrTazMD/podcastsGet your copy of The Hormone Shift: Balance Your Body and Thrive Through Midlife and MenopauseHost & Production TeamHost: Dr. Taz; Produced by ClipGrowth.com (Producer: Pat Gostek) (00:00) - Doing everything right but nothing changes (00:18) - Shame and medical gaslighting (00:37) - PCOS as a mental health story (01:16) - Inflammation and brain chemistry (02:00) - Focus, memory, emotions, and PCOS (04:21) - Origin story: hormones and gaslighting (06:11) - Why PCOS is missed (07:52) - PCOS and depression/anxiety rates (09:22) - Why fertility journeys reveal PCOS (11:30) - Labs and patterns clinicians ignore (12:59) - Diagnosis criteria explained (14:57) - Blood sugar swings and mood (15:56) - Insulin resistance and cognition (18:18) - Cortisol, stress, and PCOS (20:51) - Pregnancy exposure and cortisol (27:11) - Why we need screening tools (30:49) - Supplements that may help (32:15) - Microbiome and brain fog (44:31) - Rehearsing your story with doctors (46:10) - PCOS and bulimia connection (49:42) - Become hormone literate early

Mental Wealth, Leave a New LegacyFor many moms, hosting is expected to feel joyful, easy, and welcoming. But for some, opening their home brings overwhelm, emotional exhaustion, and a nervous system that never truly gets to rest.​​In this episode of Mental Wealth, Katie sits down with Laura Wood to explore why hosting can feel so hard even when you love the people you are inviting in. Together, they unpack how childhood environments, emotional unpredictability, and early patterns of needing to read the room can wire moms for hypervigilance and over functioning inside their own homes.​​This conversation goes beyond surface level expectations and looks at the emotional labor of hosting, nervous system regulation, and the hidden cost of holding space for others while managing your own internal state.​​Laura offers compassionate insight into the difference between capacity and desire, why boundaries around your home are not selfish, and how healing does not always mean pushing yourself to do more. Sometimes healing looks like honoring your limits and allowing your home to remain a place of safety and rest.​​If hosting leaves you depleted or questioning yourself, this episode will help you feel seen and validated. You are not broken. Your body is communicating.​​#NervousSystem #HealingJourney #MomMentalHealth​​Connect with Laura: https://www.facebook.com/BenavieriConnect with Katie: https://www.facebook.com/KatieHalleLambert​ Brought to you by Team EvoAZ at eXp Realty and Benavieri Counseling. ​ ​​*The information shared in this podcast is not intended to treat or diagnose a mental health or medical condition.

In this episode of Makes Sense with Dr. JC, we explore a quiet but unsettling observation: as AI advances and digital content explodes, many of us are feeling less connected, less nourished, and less sure about what's real. This isn't a complaint; it's a moment of awareness. A Hmmm? From social media illusions and synthetic meaning to ancient wisdom traditions that warned us about Maya, the illusion of “not now,” this episode invites you to question a deeply ingrained belief: that life's blessings exist somewhere in the future, after you've fixed yourself, earned enough, or survived one more season. What if that belief is backwards? Through personal reflection, spiritual insight, and lived experience, including lessons from deep inner stripping rather than addition, this conversation reframes hardship, loss, and disruption as moments where the wrapping paper of illusion is torn away, revealing what was never missing to begin with. This episode is an invitation to stop running past your life… and finally unwrap the present. Make Sense?

F*ck Fitting In is a deep dive into one of the most invisible forces shaping our lives: approval-seeking. In this episode, Dr. JC Doornick exposes how most of us unknowingly construct an internal A.I., an Artificial Identity, a learned algorithm designed to gain acceptance, avoid conflict, and perform appropriately. Over time, this identity edits our words, tones, decisions, and even our sense of self, until we forget where the real us ends and the performance begins. Through sharp insight, cultural critique, and the lens of the Interface Response System (IRS), this conversation reveals how approval becomes a silent operating system that keeps us rehearsing the future, regretting the past, and missing the only place authenticity exists: the present moment. You'll learn how awareness cracks the code, how curiosity (“Hmmm?”) creates cognitive distance, and how authenticity returns when the mask powers down. This episode is a call to stop auditioning for life, stop being manipulable by algorithms, social or internal, and reclaim the courage to live from truth instead of approval. Because when you stop fitting in, you don't lose yourself… You finally get yourself back. Make Sense?

In this Parshas Vayigash review, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe focuses on the climactic moment when Yosef reveals himself to his brothers: “I am Yosef—is my father still alive?”—a revelation so shocking the brothers are speechless, realizing the entire 22-year saga (their sale of Yosef, his suffering, and rise to power) was Hashem's precise plan. The brothers' terror mirrors the future Day of Judgment, when Hashem will reveal “I am Hashem” and everything in history will suddenly make perfect sense.Rabbi Wolbe emphasizes the wake-up call: we sell our potential for fleeting gains (like the brothers sold Yosef for shoes' worth of silver), wasting time on distractions (social media, materialism) instead of prioritizing Torah, mitzvot, family, and spiritual growth. He urges laser focus on what truly matters—relationships, legacy, and eternal investment—warning that Hashem will hold us accountable not against others, but on whether we maximized our unique selves. The episode closes with a call to realign priorities daily through prayer and conscious living._____________This episode of the Parsha Review Podcast is dedicated in honor of Lenny & Teresa FriedmanDownload & Print the Parsha Review Notes:https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1ncaRyoH5iJmGGoMZs9y82Hz2ofViVouv?usp=sharingRecorded at TORCH Meyerland in the Levin Family Studios (B) to a live audience on December 23, 2025, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on December 24, 2025_____________Subscribe: Apple Podcasts (https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/parsha-review-podcast-rabbi-aryeh-wolbe/id1651930083)Spotify (https://open.spotify.com/show/22lv1kXJob5ZNLaAl6CHTQ) to stay inspired! Share your questions at awolbe@torchweb.org or visit torchweb.org for more Torah content.  _____________About the Host:Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe, Director of TORCH in Houston, brings decades of Torah scholarship to guide listeners in applying Jewish wisdom to daily life.  To directly send your questions, comments, and feedback: awolbe@torchweb.org_____________Support Our Mission:Help us share Jewish wisdom globally by sponsoring an episode at torchweb.org.

One of the greatest surprises of this journey wasn't the visions, the purging, or even the revelations; it was the people. In just four days, strangers became family. Not metaphorically. Literally. People from different countries, histories, and wounds trusted one another with their tears, their truths, their breakdowns, and their rebirths. This episode explores one of the most important distinctions of the entire experience: the environment is not secondary to the medicine—the people are the medicine. Arkana is not just a retreat center; it is a living ecosystem designed to make it safe enough to stop performing and start being real. When judgment evaporates, and egos are checked at the door, something ancient reawakens. Trust becomes the air you breathe. Authenticity becomes effortless. Healing accelerates. By the third and final night of Ayahuasca, the work had shifted. There was no war. No descent. No funerals. Grandmother wasn't teaching anymore; she was integrating. Confirming. Blessing. What once felt overwhelming now appeared as memory, perspective, and clarity. The darkness was never removed; it was revealed as temporary. And for the first time, it became clear that both the darkness and the light were never happening to me. They were moving through me. Day Five introduced San Pedro, Huachuma, the Medicine of the Heart. Where Ayahuasca turns you inward to meet your shadows, San Pedro moves you outward into connection, unity, empathy, and love. Under the guidance of Alcides, a man who doesn't just tell stories but transmits truth, the group experienced something rare and unmistakable: collective heart coherence. Not symbolic. Not poetic. Physically real. Fourteen nervous systems beating as one. This episode captures the final transmission of the Sacred Valley: connection isn't something you create, it's what remains when you remove the barriers. The heart has always been unified. It's the ego that divides it. San Pedro didn't give us anything new; it revealed what had always been there beneath the masks, defenses, and personas. As the fire burned low beneath the Andean sky, one final truth became clear: plant medicine isn't the point, it's the doorway. Nothing fixes you. Nothing completes you. These medicines remove what was never yours to carry and reveal who you've been all along. This is the ceremony after the ceremony.And this is where the journey home truly begins. Make Sense?

Between trading for Sonny Gray who they could see as the number two starter, floating Marcelo Mayer in a trade for Ketel Marte, and letting Alex Bregman talk with Arizona, there really isn't anything the Red Sox have done during this offseason that makes much sense.

The Ruins, the Return, and the Realignment After two intense nights with Ayahuasca, Day Five brought a different kind of teacher: the Sacred Valley itself. In the ancient terraces of Pisac and the colossal stones of Ollantaytambo, I found a quiet wisdom that didn't speak in visions—but in presence, humility, and perspective. As I walked among mountain-carved ruins, burial sites, and engineering miracles we still can't explain, I began to understand my own “deaths” from the ceremonies as returns—returns to trust, patience, and truth. This unexpected excursion stirred a mix of sadness and gratitude as Thanksgiving approached and I felt the ache of being away from my family… while standing in the embrace of a new one. In this episode, I explore how ancient civilizations, unexpected emotions, and the right people at the right time can become medicine just as powerful as the plant itself—and how trust, not fear, becomes the compass for Night Three.

After the massive breakthrough of Night One—two funerals, the collapsing skyscraper, the dissolving of old fears—I walked into Night Two believing the work was done. I felt complete, emptied, reborn. I even considered not drinking at all. But Ayahuasca loves to laugh at certainty, and the shamans gently suggested a tiny “check-in” dose. Just a sip. Just enough to see if anything remained. Fifteen minutes later, the medicine hit me with the force of a spiritual hurricane. What followed was not enlightenment. Not beauty. Not cosmic revelation. It was overstimulation on a scale I had never experienced—violent fractals, exploding geometry, unraveling mandalas, and the infamous Transformer-Mickey-Mouse-Jiffy-Pop-Clown-Show that appears when the mind begins to collapse under its own fear. My nervous system short-circuited. My breath vanished. My intention dissolved. Everything became too loud, too fast, too much. And the only thing attacking me was my own resistance. Guided to the “bad boys' corner” of the maloca, I spent hours trapped in a visual and emotional hurricane, praying for release and finding none. No purge. No relief. No escape. Just chaos. Shame. Fear. A distorted carnival spinning out of control. Until one quiet moment changed everything. When I finally remembered the real question—the IRS question, the Dragon's question:Hmmm? What is actually happening here? What is this showing me? The answer landed like a whisper:Time. Your forgotten ally. Your secret weapon. The truth that dissolves all suffering.This too shall pass. The visuals didn't stop. The nightmare didn't soften. But my relationship to it changed. And the instant fear lost its authority, Grandmother stepped back in respect. She hadn't been punishing me. She had been teaching me the one lesson I didn't know I still needed: Nothing permanent can harm you. Only fear convinces you otherwise.Everything—anxiety, worry, panic, uncertainty—is just passing weather. In this episode, I take you inside the hardest night of my life, a night where the medicine became the mirror, the storm became the teacher, and time revealed itself as the true healer. Through Alan Watts, the IRS, and a collapse that turned into clarity, this chapter is a reminder for anyone drowning in fear: It's rarely the situation that hurts us. It's the meaning we've assigned to it. And when we zoom out—beyond our stories, beyond our worries, beyond this tiny spinning rock in a universe of trillions—everything softens. Everything shifts. Everything passes. Night Two wasn't a failure.It was the teaching beneath the teaching.The darkness behind the breakthrough.The reminder I didn't want… but desperately needed. This too shall pass.And the next morning, Day Three began—with sunlight, stone ruins, grounded earth, and a much-needed return to the outside world.

My Ayahuasca Experience – Part Two: Night One With Grandmother There's a moment before every first ceremony when fear tightens, identity resists, and truth begins to breathe. Night One starts long before the cup touches your lips, on the plane, in the tension between who you've been and who you're afraid to become. By the time the sun drops behind the Andes and your name is called in the maloca, you realize there is no turning back. In this episode, I take you into that moment… the doorway between the known and the unraveling. Grandmother met me instantly, no warm welcome, no gentle reunion. My confidence was my mistake, and she humbled me with a cosmic slap that dragged me into the gravity of the real work. What followed was a war in space that was really a war inside myself: fear of loss, fear of failure, fear of collapse, fear of not being able to protect the people I love. And just when the darkness felt overwhelming, support arrived in the form of white light, my wife's essence, reminding me that even in the deepest battles, I'm not alone. Then came the purge… the clearing… the release. And what unfolded next were two funerals.One for the fear that my daughter needed saving.One for the fear that money could crumble my life at any moment. Grandmother melted my illusions, literally, and showed me the quiet truth beneath survival:Humans are here to love. Everything else is noise. Night One left me humbled, emptied, and changed. I wasn't done healing… but something irreversible had shifted.
