Parenting relationships often feel heavy when pressure replaces presence. This episode helps you recognize the quiet shifts that happened this week and trust the relational changes unfolding without effort, force, or self-correction.This episode is an invitation to slow down and make meaning of what may have quietly shifted in your parenting this week.Not through effort.Not through strategy.But through reduced pressure.As you've moved through the recalibration stages, you may have noticed changes that didn't announce themselves loudly. Less reactivity. More steadiness. Interactions that felt cleaner, even if nothing “big” happened.This episode focuses on Horizontal Alignment — the stage where awareness integrates and meaning settles without being turned into action.In this conversation, we explore:How identity-level recalibration often shows up subtly inside real relationshipsWhy calm, ease, and reduced effort are legitimate signals of alignmentThe difference between monitoring change and trusting integrationHow nervous systems learn new reference points without needing proofWhy recognizing change does not obligate you to protect, explain, or escalate itThis is not mindset work.It's not productivity or behavioral correction.Identity-Level Recalibration works at the root — allowing pressure to release so your system can reorganize naturally. When identity is aligned, relationships don't need more effort. They need less load.Today's Micro Recalibration: Finish this sentence gently, without analysis: “One way I related differently this week was…”Let it count.

When parenting pressure finally eases but exhaustion lingers, it can feel confusing. This episode explores why calm doesn't mean disengagement and how ease often signals identity-level alignment rather than effort slipping.There is a moment many parents don't expect.Things begin to move forward.Conversations land more cleanly.Decisions take less energy.And somehow… you're not paying for it with yourself.Instead of relief, that calm can feel unsettling.In this episode of The Recalibration, Julie explores what actually changes in parenting when you stop managing everything and why ease is not a sign of disengagement, but a signal of alignment returning.This conversation is especially resonant for high-capacity parents who have learned to equate leadership with vigilance and care with constant management.In this episode, we explore:• Why exhaustion often comes from over-management, not from caring too much• How regulated authority feels different from control or urgency• What Renewed Momentum looks like when identity is aligned• Why calm can be a legitimate signal of effectiveness, not a warning sign• How parenting begins to move forward without force or internal costThis is not about doing less because you care less.It's about doing less because less is required.Identity-Level Recalibration (ILR) is not another mindset tactic or productivity strategy. It is the root-level recalibration that makes every other tool work again. When identity is aligned, momentum no longer has to be managed. It moves on its own.Today's Micro Recalibration:Finish this sentence gently and honestly:“One place things feel easier than they used to is…”No justification.No minimizing.Just noticing.Explore Identity-Level Recalibration→ Join the next Friday Recalibration Live experience → Take your listening deeper!

Parenting relationships can feel strained when pressure rises and urgency takes over. This episode explores why staying present, even when you want to intervene, isn't disengagement but a sign of regulation and identity-level alignment returning.There is a moment many parents quietly recognize but rarely name.You see your child struggle.You feel the pull to intervene.And instead of stepping in, you stay.Not because you don't care.Not because you're disengaged.But because something in you knows this moment doesn't require urgency.In this episode of The Recalibration, we explore what happens when presence replaces pressure in parenting. Not as a technique. Not as restraint. But as a regulated, identity-level expression of authority.This conversation sits at the intersection of relationships, nervous system regulation, and embodied leadership. It speaks to parents who have learned to equate love with involvement, safety with intervention, and authority with urgency — and are now sensing that something quieter is being asked of them.You'll hear why:The urge to step in often comes from learned over-responsibility, not wisdomStaying present is an active, regulated choice, not passivityAuthority becomes steadier when urgency loosensPresence changes the relational field, even when nothing is said or fixedThis episode reflects the core of Identity-Level Recalibration (ILR): change that begins with who you are, not what you do. It's not mindset work. It's not productivity. It's the root-level realignment that allows clarity, trust, and leadership to emerge naturally.Rather than offering strategies, this episode offers orientation. Rather than pushing resolution, it invites recognition and reinforcement. And rather than instructing, it companions you through the lived experience of staying when old patterns would usually take over.Today's Micro Recalibration:Finish this sentence without evaluating it:“One moment I stayed present instead of stepping in was…”No fixing.No correcting.Just noticing what your system is already learning.Explore Identity-Level Recalibration→ Join the next Friday Recalibration Live experience → Take your listening deeper!

Silence is one of the most misunderstood skills in leadership, communication, and life. Many people rush to fill quiet moments with explanations, reactions, or noise because silence forces awareness. It removes the ability to perform, defend, or control how others perceive us. This episode explores why silence feels so uncomfortable and why that discomfort is often a signal that something important is happening internally.The conversation breaks down how silence functions as a power move in high-pressure moments, not because it dominates a room, but because it regulates the nervous system. Troy shares how learning to pause instead of react creates clarity, steadiness, and intentional communication. The episode explores how silence can either trigger fear and old emotional patterns or become a stabilizing force, allowing you to respond with precision instead of impulse.Personal stories are woven throughout, including experiences with conflict, rejection, grief, and preparing for defining moments like public speaking and delivering a TEDx talk. These moments highlight how silence carries different emotional weight depending on context, and how the body often reacts to pressure as if every moment carries the same level of threat. The episode connects this to fight, flight, freeze, and fawn responses, and explains how silence can help interrupt those patterns before they escalate.The episode also explores how silence builds trust and presence in professional settings. Speaking less, pausing longer, and choosing restraint often signal confidence and credibility more than volume or speed. Listeners will hear how silence can shift power dynamics in business, leadership, and relationships, while also demanding emotional discipline, self-control, and a willingness to sit with discomfort.Ultimately, this episode is about mastering silence as a form of self-leadership. It is not about withholding communication or avoiding hard moments. It is about knowing when silence serves you, when it sharpens your message, and when it allows you to own a situation without forcing it. Silence works, but it comes with a cost, and this episode challenges listeners to decide whether they are willing to develop the discipline required to use it well.
Send us a textWhat happens when modern neuroscience, ancient plant medicine, and spiritual self-awareness collide?In this powerful conversation, Joey Pinz sits down with Dr. Leah Linder—naturopathic physician, reverend, and co-founder of Setas Seminary—to explore how psilocybin mushrooms are being used responsibly, ethically, and intentionally to support healing from trauma, PTSD, anxiety, addiction, and cognitive decline.Leah breaks down the actual science behind psilocybin—how it reduces neuroinflammation, stimulates brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), and helps the brain form new neural pathways—while also explaining why integration and nervous system regulation matter far more than the ceremony itself.You'll also hear why psilocybin became a Schedule I substance, how federal religious protections allow safe access today, and why healing isn't about being “fixed,” but about learning to listen to your body and rewrite old stories.This episode is grounded, thoughtful, and eye-opening—perfect for anyone curious about the future of mental wellness, consciousness, and sustainable personal growth.

When nervous system regulation replaces pressure, parental clarity returns. If parenting feels confusing or heavy despite your effort, this episode explores why clarity isn't lost — it's crowded — and how identity-level recalibration brings it back online.There is a particular kind of exhaustion parents rarely name — the fatigue of no longer trusting your own knowing.In this episode of The Recalibration, we move into the Reclamation stage of Identity-Level Recalibration — the moment when clarity begins to return, not because you worked harder, but because pressure eased.In this episode, we explore:Why parenting confusion is often a sign of nervous system overload, not a lack of wisdomHow sustained pressure crowds out discernment, even in capable, thoughtful parentsWhat begins to return when regulation replaces vigilanceWhy clarity often comes back quietly and without effortHow identity-level recalibration differs from mindset work, behavior change, or productivity strategiesWhat it feels like when your system starts trusting itself againThroughout Season Four, we're practicing recalibration inside real areas of life rather than discussing it abstractly. This week's focus is parenting — understood broadly, from the child lens, the parent lens, or both.When nervous system load decreases:Perspective widensValues become easier to accessDecisions take less energyYou stop rehearsing and start sensing what mattersThis episode gently reframes confusion as information — evidence that your system has been carrying too much for too long.This is not mindset work.It's not optimization.And it's not about becoming someone new.Identity-Level Recalibration begins with who you are, not what you do — because when identity is aligned, clarity doesn't need to be forced. It returns.Today's Micro Recalibration:Notice one place where clarity feels a little more accessible than it did before.No analysis. No explanation.

Today's anchor is intentionally quiet. We are practicing something simple but very powerful. Listening instead of overriding.So often, we only slow down when our bodies force us to. When we're sick. Exhausted. Or running on empty.As women, and especially as mothers, we are so conditioned to be doing for everyone else. Holding. Managing. Anticipating. Planning. And the moment we pause, even briefly, guilt creeps in. Like we should be doing more. Like rest has to be earned.I am currently reading a book called The Relaxed Woman. And it's been a gentle reminder that relaxation isn't something we arrive at once everything is done. It's something we decide is important and we must practice relaxing in our real everyday lives. This anchor is an invitation to practice that.It's about practicing that pause before we reach a point of burnout and disregulation.This anchor is a reminder that rest is not a reward. It's information. And listening is one of the most powerful things we can do for ourselves and those around us.When we pause, we create space.Space to respond instead of react.Space to notice what we actually need.Space for our bodies to recalibrate without being pushed.When we pause, we model regulation for the people around us.We show our children, our partners, and ourselves that it's safe to slow down.That care doesn't have to come from exhaustion.Together we all learn that presence is more powerful than pushing through.As you move back into your day, carry this with you.You don't need to do more.You don't need to prove anything.Sometimes the most supportive thing you can dois stop and listen.Pause.

Parenting pressure can linger even when life feels stable. This episode explores why subtle tension isn't failure, but information — and how awareness creates safety when identity-level misalignment has quietly replaced presence.Parenting pressure doesn't always arrive during crisis.Often, it shows up after things have settled — when the hard season has passed, routines are working, and life looks “fine” from the outside. And yet, something feels tighter than it needs to be.In this Monday episode of The Recalibration, Julie Holly introduces the Recognition stage of identity-level recalibration through the lens of parenting — not as a strategy to improve, but as a relational environment where pressure and presence quietly shape everything.This conversation is for high-capacity humans who are still showing up, still caring deeply, and still holding responsibility — but noticing that it costs more than it used to.In this episode, you'll explore:Why parenting tension often appears after survival mode endsHow subtle tightness is a form of awareness, not failureWhat the Recognition stage actually is — and why it always comes firstHow pressure quietly replaces presence without us realizing itWhy noticing does not obligate action or decision-makingHow nervous system safety is created through permission, not urgencyThe difference between being less capable and being less overextendedDrawing from nervous system wisdom, psychology, and lived experience, Julie reframes “feeling stuck” not as a lack of insight, but as a learned reflex to act too quickly on awareness — a pattern that keeps the system braced and prevents integration.This is not mindset work.It's not productivity coaching.And it's not another parenting approach.Identity-Level Recalibration (ILR) works at the root — creating the conditions where awareness is safe, pressure releases, and presence returns naturally.This episode is about orientation, not resolution.Recognition before release.Companionship instead of correction.Today's Micro Recalibration:Complete this sentence, without analysis or fixing:“One place parenting feels tighter than it needs to be is…”Awareness is enough for today.Explore Identity-Level Recalibration→ Join the next Friday Recalibration Live experience → Take your listening deeper!

In today's conversation, Sasha sits with Pen King Jr., holistic transformation coach, health-tech innovator, and CEO of Bonding Health, to explore a radically different approach to ADHD, focusing on emotional regulation, trauma, and mental health.Pen is also a dear friend of Sasha's- they met freshman year at Syracuse University in English class. Their connection deepened when she announced she was raising money to run the NYC Marathon for charity. Pen donated $1,000 on the spot, making it possible for Sasha to run the marathon at all. That generosity marked the beginning of an 18+ year friendship rooted in trust, support, and shared values.Today, Pen is leading a movement that challenges the conventional ADHD model. Rather than overstimulating the brain or defaulting to medication, he shares why slowing the brain down, strengthening neuroplasticity, and rethinking emotional regulation may be the key to lasting healing—for children and adults alike.In this conversation, they explore:Why traditional ADHD treatments may be missing the root causeHow trauma, stress, and emotional dysregulation shape behaviorThe science behind calming the nervous systemHow the Bonding Health app empowers families through warmth, play, and connectionWhy asking “What is my child communicating?” changes everythingThis episode is for parents, educators, health professionals, and anyone curious about holistic mental health, ADHD alternatives, neuroplasticity, and integrative healing.If you're ready to move beyond bandaid solutions and explore what true regulation and resilience look like, this conversation will change how you see mental health.Discover why slowing down might be the fastest path forward.

In this episode, I reflect on why the phrase “when life hands you lemons, make lemonade” doesn't always feel supportive in moments of stress. I share my personal experience navigating chaos during a major storm and how it revealed my nervous system responses. We explore fight, flight, freeze, and simple ways I return myself to regulation through breath, awareness, and gratitude. I also talk about the spiritual concept of pattern interrupts and how breaking routine can create clarity and shift frequency.

You finally slow down… but your body doesn't.In this episode of the Free to Be Mindful Podcast, Vanessa De Jesus Guzman explores what happens when chronic stress becomes so familiar that it no longer feels like stress at all. For high-achieving moms, leaders, and caregivers, operating in survival mode can quietly become the baseline... making rest feel uncomfortable, quiet feel unsettling, and calm feel out of reach.Through personal reflection and real-life examples, this conversation helps name what many are experiencing but haven't fully articulated: the difference between looking calm on the outside and feeling regulated on the inside. This episode offers language, awareness, and gentle reframes for listeners who are carrying a lot, especially in times that feel heavy beneath the surface.TUNE IN TO LEARNHow to recognize stress when you're used to functioning through itWhy slowing down can trigger guilt or restlessness instead of reliefA simple reflective practice to name what you're feeling and whyHow nervous system awareness supports better leadership and parentingUPCOMING SUPPORT & RESET OPPORTUNITIESIf this episode resonated and you're craving intentional space to pause and recalibrate, here are two upcoming opportunities to continue the work:Virtual Leadership Coaching Container – February 5, 2026 (1 PM EST)A facilitated space for leaders, founders, and professionals who are holding significant responsibility while navigating internal stress and external demands.

Relationships can feel heavy when responsibility, pressure, and emotional labor fall on one person. This episode explores why lightness often returns not through effort, but when identity and relationship finally come back into alignment.There's a moment many people notice quietly, almost cautiously:their relationship feels lighter.Not because they tried harder.Not because something dramatic changed.But because they stopped carrying what was never meant to be held alone.In this episode, we explore what happens in relationships when over-functioning loosens and identity begins to match how you relate. Many high-capacity, deeply responsible people learned early on that effort equals love—and that staying ahead of problems is how connection stays intact. Over time, that pattern can create pressure, emotional fatigue, and a subtle sense of misalignment, even in relationships that “work.”This conversation names a different experience: when tension clears faster, conversations don't linger in your body, and you recover more quickly after hard moments—not because conflict disappeared, but because your nervous system no longer has to compensate for the relationship.This is what Renewed Momentum feels like in Identity-Level Recalibration.Not urgency. Not intensity.Believability.Rather than another mindset shift or communication strategy, ILR addresses the root level—where identity precedes behavior. When who you are and how you relate finally align, ease becomes information. Lightness becomes evidence. And commitment no longer requires collapse.This episode is an orientation, not a prescription. It offers language for recognizing when alignment is already working—so you don't rush past it, explain it away, or brace for it to disappear.Today's Micro Recalibration:Notice where your relationship feels lighter simply because you stopped over-carrying. Not because you disengaged or cared less, but because responsibility is finally being shared. Let that ease be information worth trusting.Explore Identity-Level Recalibration→ Join the next Friday Recalibration Live experience → Take your listening deeper!

In this Ask Dr. Tony episode, Dr. Tony Ebel tackles one of the most common questions from parents: Can kids really heal from food allergies, intolerances, and sensitivities? Dr. Tony explains that food reactions aren't just about the gut or immune system—they're fundamentally a nervous system regulation issue. He breaks down the critical connection between the vagus nerve, digestive function, and immune tolerance, explaining how subluxation creates a cycle of immune overreaction and gut dysfunction. Dr. Tony outlines a healing approach that prioritizes nervous system stability through chiropractic care, followed by functional medicine interventions. He emphasizes that healing is absolutely possible but requires time, the right sequence of care, and combining both approaches for exponential results—what he calls "one plus one equals 11.-----Links & ResourcesReferenced Episodes:How Dairy & Grains Can Actually Be a Health Food w/ Jordan Rubin [Apple/Spotify]Complete Gut Healing: Why Diet Changes & Detox Don't Always Work [Apple/Spotify]Referenced Providers/Organizations:https://mywellrooted.com/https://documentinghope.com/----Key Topics & Timestamps05:00 Understanding allergies vs. sensitivities and intolerances08:00 The vagus nerve: The boss of digestion and immune tolerance13:00 Sympathetic dominance: Why the immune system is always on high alert17:00 These kids aren't broken—they're stuck in a pattern18:00 Step one: Adjust the subluxation and restore nervous system regulation24:00 Functional medicine components: Gut lining, microbiome, inflammation, detox27:00 One plus one equals 111: Combining chiropractic and functional medicine29:00 Neurological soft signs of healing to watch for31:00 Final encouragement: Healing is a process and miracles are possible-- Follow us on Socials: Instagram: @pxdocs Facebook: Dr. Tony Ebel & The PX Docs Network Youtube: The PX Docs For more information, visit PXDocs.com to read informative articles about the power of Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic Care.

Content note: This episode includes candid discussion of sexuality, trauma, and intimate bodily experiences.SYNOPSIS: In this rich and deeply human - and live event – conversation, Ali Mezey is joined by somatic sex educator and bodyworker Rahi Chun for an unscripted exploration of sexuality, trauma, pleasure, and the innate intelligence of the body. Together, they challenge symptom-focused approaches to sexual “dysfunction” and invite a more holistic understanding of libido, arousal, orgasm, and genital response as meaningful expressions of lived experience, safety, and relational history.Drawing from decades of professional and personal work, Ali and Rahi explore how early touch, attachment, trauma, shame, and cultural conditioning shape our sexual bodies – often long before sexuality itself is consciously understood. They discuss erectile challenges, orgasmic blocks, genital guarding, compulsive desire, pleasure ceilings, and the deep nervous-system need for safety that underlies sexual expression across all genders.Through stories, client examples, and embodied inquiry, the episode illuminates how patterns of arousal and shutdown are not failures, but adaptive strategies – and how making them conscious can open new pathways for choice, intimacy, and authentic pleasure. This conversation is a powerful invitation to move beyond performance, diagnosis, and shame, and toward a sexuality rooted in presence, agency, and embodied authenticity.In wanting to keep their anonymity, several attendees submitted questions and comments via chat.Rahi on my podcast: The Disarmed Body: Sexual De-Armoring with Sexological Bodyworker, Rahi ChunAli on Rahi's podcast: Your "Sex Problem" Isn't Sexual: It's Relational Geometry with Ali MezeyFOR MORE ALI MEZEY:ALI - WebsiteALI - LinkTreeTo read more about the next Personal Geometry® Foundations training FOR MORE RAHI CHUNBIO: Rahi combines his training and experience as a CA state-certified Somatic Sex Educator and Sexological Bodyworker, Certified TRE Provider, NeuroAffective Touch Practitioner, Life Coach with an M.A. in Spiritual Psychology, with certifications in Family Constellations Therapy, DeArmouring Arts, Chi Nei Tsang & Karsai Nei Tsang, and STREAM (Scar Tissue Remediation and Management) in his facilitation of Somatic Sexual Wholeness.

It can have physical, psychological, relational, or somatic contributors and is distinct from general low libido.Genital De-Armoring – A somatic concept referring to the process of releasing muscular and nervous system defensesin the pelvic and genital regions that have developed in response to trauma, fear, or shut-down responses. It supports increased sensation, relaxation, and fuller access to pleasure and bodily presence.“La Petite Mort” – A French expression meaning “the little death,” traditionally used metaphorically to describe the sensations of release, surrender, and altered consciousness that can accompany orgasm. The phrase highlights the powerful emotional and physical release inherent in sexual climax.Ellen Heed: Embodied Autonomy; Scar Tissue Remediation expert“Things that fire together wire together” – A popular paraphrase of the principle from neuroscience and psychology often attributed to Hebbian learning, meaning that neurons that activate together strengthen their connections, forming lasting patterns in the brain and nervous system. It's widely used to explain how habitual patterns (emotional, cognitive, somatic) become embedded over time.Ivan Pavlov & the Dog Experiments – Ivan Pavlov was a Russian physiologist best known for discovering classical conditioning through his experiments with dogs. He observed that dogs would begin to salivate not only when food was presented, but also in response to neutral stimuli (like a bell) once those stimuli were repeatedly paired with food. This demonstrated how the nervous system learns through association—how experiences that occur together become linked. Pavlov's work laid the foundation for understanding how emotional, behavioral, and somatic patterns are formed, and why repeated pairings of sensation, emotion, and meaning can shape lifelong responses in the body.

That's exactly what we're unpacking in this episode of Culture Changers with the wildly insightful Josh Pais, actor, New York Times bestselling author of Lose Your Mind: The Path to Creative Invincibility, and the guy who literally played Raphael in the original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles!I get vulnerable about what it feels like to live with a fried nervous system and nagging self-doubt, and Josh takes us on a journey to transform those so-called bad emotions into fuel for creativity, confidence, and genuine presence. We talk about why the self-help industry's obsession with feeling better often keeps us stuck (spoiler: your mind can be a real asshole), and how welcoming every messy feeling, no matter how uncomfortable, can be your gateway to creative invincibility.Josh shares radical, body-centered strategies you can use on the spot, including his four access points to shift from mental drama to full-body aliveness. If you're over toxic positivity, exhausted by faking it, or just want to stop fighting yourself, this one's for you. We get vulnerable, irreverent, and, dare I say, pretty damn actionable.In this episode we get into:Embracing all emotions without judgmentTransforming anxiety and stress into creative fuelThe harm of suppressing feelingsThe self-help industry's narrativeThe myth of good and bad emotionsAuthenticity and removing the emotional maskPlayfulness and creativity as healing toolsNotable Quotables:“As the breath decreases, the shit talk increases.” (17:29)“Anxiety is just an energetic pattern.” (15:16)“Ride it, don't hide it.” (30:41)“Everybody's mind is mean.” (15:38)“When there's truth, you can't look away.” (39:24)Timestamps:0:00 Channeling emotional energy4:00 Processing heavy moments in real time11:00 Why emotions aren't good or bad15:00 Anxiety as energy19:00 Feeling emotions in the body24:00 Turning nervousness into fuel30:00 Why suppression backfires38:00 Truth, trust, and presence45:00 Playfulness and creativityResources & Links Mentioned:Lose Your Mind: The Path to Creative Invincibility by Josh Paishttps://committedimpulse.comhttps://www.instagram.com/joshpaishttps://www.instagram.com/allison__harehttps://www.linkedin.com/in/allisonhare/https://allisonhare.comBook a free clarity call: https://allisonhare.com/freecall Be sure to rate, review, and follow this podcast on your player and also, connect with me IRL for more goodness and life-changing stuff.Schedule a FREE podcast clarity call with me - Your future audience is out there.

In this first episode of 2026, I'm naming something that's been building beneath the wellness world for years — and has now reached a breaking point.Modern wellness has become excessive, incoherent, and deeply disconnected from how bodies actually heal.This episode isn't about tearing wellness down. It's about telling the truth about what's blocking real progress.We're living in an information-saturated culture where healing has become something people research relentlessly, perform publicly, and try to master all at once. More protocols. More supplements. More tracking. More pressure to optimize, fix, and override the body — all while calling it “self-care.”What I'm seeing over and over again isn't a lack of effort.It's incoherence.People are trying to heal inside the same paradigm that made them sick — carrying urgency, hyper-fixation, and outsourcing of authority into a new marketplace with different branding but the same pressure.In this episode, I explore:• The broken paradigm beneath modern wellness — and why more information doesn't equal more healing• How hypervigilance, freeze, and overwhelm are showing up as “health practices”• Why orthorexia, protocol-stacking, and stalled healing are not personal failures, but systemic outcomes• Why the nervous system cannot heal while it's under constant surveillance and pressure• How depletion, mineral loss, and instability are driven by environments that demand vigilance• What an ecosystem lens actually looks like in practice — and why timing, sequencing, and capacity matter• Why simplicity isn't a shortcut, a trend, or minimalism — but a return to biological realityI explain why healing doesn't happen through intensity, effort, or force — and why so many people feel like nothing “sticks,” even after years of trying.The nervous system doesn't heal because you try harder.It heals when the environment stops demanding defense.This episode is an invitation to step out of chaos dressed up as commitment — and into a way of working with the body that honors rhythm, containment, nourishment, and time.If you're exhausted by doing everything “right” and still not feeling stable…If you've tried everything and nothing seems to hold…If you're ready to stop chasing fixes and start creating real conditions for repair…This conversation is for you.I also share how I work from an ecosystem lens using HTMA and microbiome mapping — not to diagnose or override, but to understand terrain, pace support, and help the body reorganize without force.This isn't about doing more.It's about finally creating the conditions that allow the body to do what it's been trying to do all along.

Ask Me How I Know: Multifamily Investor Stories of Struggle to Success
Relationships can feel confusing when clarity returns without effort. If you're noticing less pressure, less rehearsal, and more internal knowing, this episode explores why that's not withdrawal—but identity-level realignment beginning to settle.There's a moment in relationships when something quietly changes inside you.You're no longer rehearsing what to say.You're not scanning for emotional shifts.You're not managing closeness the way you used to.Instead, you simply know what you feel.For many people—especially high-capacity, deeply responsible partners—this return of clarity can feel both relieving and vulnerable. Relief, because the internal noise has softened. Vulnerable, because awareness often brings memory: how much adapting once made connection possible, and how much energy that required.In this episode of The Recalibration, Julie Holly explores the Reclamation stage of the Identity-Level Recalibration process as it unfolds inside marriage and close partnership. This is not about fixing communication, having the “right” conversation, or making a decision. It's about understanding why clarity returns when pressure drops—and why knowing what you feel again doesn't mean you're pulling away.Drawing from psychology, nervous system science, and identity development, Julie explains how internal authority comes back online when the body shifts from constant emotional management into felt safety. When the nervous system moves out of vigilance, truth becomes accessible again—without urgency or justification.This episode gently addresses the quiet questions many listeners carry:What if I'm changing and my partner isn't here yet?Why does awareness feel tender instead of triumphant?Can I trust clarity if it feels ordinary?This is not mindset work or productivity advice. Identity-Level Recalibration is a root-level process that makes every other tool effective—because it begins with who you are, not what you do.Today's Micro RecalibrationNotice where in your relationship you feel a quiet sense of knowing—without needing to explain or act on it.Let clarity exist without urgency.Knowing what you feel isn't a conclusion. It's orientation.Explore Identity-Level Recalibration→ Join the next Friday Recalibration Live experience → Take your listening deeper!

Many high-achieving, capable adults don't identify as “traumatized” — yet they feel emotionally drained, disconnected, or stuck in patterns they can't quite explain.In this powerful episode of Mindset Mastery Moments, Dr. Alisa Whyte sits down with Dr. Shahrzad Jalali — clinical psychologist, trauma specialist, founder of Align Remedy, and author of the upcoming book The Fire That Makes Us — to unpack the often-overlooked impact of silent trauma.This conversation moves beyond surface-level mindset work and explores how unresolved trauma quietly shapes identity, performance, relationships, and leadership — even in high-functioning individuals who appear “fine” on the outside.In this episode, you'll learn:What silent trauma is and why it often goes unrecognizedHow trauma becomes a pattern — not just a past eventWhy mindset shifts don't last without nervous system regulationHow people-pleasing, perfectionism, and overachievement can be survival responsesPractical ways to begin reclaiming emotional agency and personal powerDr. Jalali weaves together neuroscience, clinical insight, and lived experience, offering nervous-system-based tools that help listeners move from survival mode into regulation, alignment, and self-authority.If you've ever felt like you're doing all the right things but still feel internally misaligned, this episode gives language to what you've been carrying — and illuminates a clear path forward.
Why does modern motherhood feel so hard — even when you're doing everything “right”?In this episode of Healthy As A Mother, we explore a powerful lens for understanding hormones, fertility, pregnancy, postpartum, and burnout: humans are animals — and modern life is not designed for our biology.From nervous system dysregulation and chronic stress to fertility struggles, postpartum depletion, and emotional overwhelm, this conversation reframes modern motherhood as a biological mismatch, not a personal failure.We cover:The “human animal in captivity” conceptWhy community is essential for mothersSunlight, sleep, movement, and hormonal healthNervous system overload, modern stress, and burnoutWhy self-care isn't indulgent — it's biological necessityThis episode is for women and mothers who feel like something about modern life, health, and motherhood just isn't working — and want a deeper, root-cause understanding.00:00 Introduction: The Human Animal02:05 Humans as Animals05:10 Animals in Captivity09:15 The Continuum Concept14:05 Biohacking vs Nature18:20 Hormones, Detox & Toxic Load22:45 Genetics & Sensitivity27:10 Evolution or De-Evolution31:30 The Loss of the Village36:20 Reciprocity & Support40:55 Parenting, School & Disconnection44:35 Sunlight, Sleep & Circadian Rhythm48:40 Men, Women & Biological Roles53:10 Food, Nutrient Depletion & Seasonality57:45 Sensory Overload & The News1:03:10 Warriors, Nurturers & Purpose1:08:40 Living Like an Animal Again1:12:30 Final Thoughts
Your nervous system craves predictability - but that doesn't mean rigid rules. This episode explores why rhythm and routine matter so much for nervous system regulation, what to do when you rebel against structure, and how to create Supportive Structure that feels like freedom instead of restriction. Even if you think you hate routine, this episode might change your perspective.What You'll Discover:• Why your nervous system needs predictability to feel safe• The difference between rigid rules and Supportive Structure with flexibility• How to work with rebellion against routine instead of forcing yourself through it• Why even unwanted patterns (like binge eating) have their own rhythm - and what that means for changeIf you've ever told yourself "I'm not a routine person" or felt trapped by structure, this episode offers a completely different way to think about rhythm and routine.Resources mentioned in this episode:Previous Episode: Supportive StructurePrevious Episode: What Does the Nervous System Have to Do with Binge Eating?Previous Episode: A Nervous System Approach to Goal SettingSchedule a Breakthrough Call to explore 1:1 coachingWant to know why you struggle with food and what to do next?

What if your life isn't happening to you — but for you? In this New Year's Eve conversation, Kristin sits down again with evolutionary astrologer Robin Jillian, revisiting a dialogue that first took place years ago during a shared Dark Night of the Soul. This time, the lens is wider, deeper, and more precise. Together, they explore evolutionary astrology as a map of the soul's long arc — not predictive, not hierarchical, and not about “what's coming next,” but about why your soul chose this life, these patterns, and these turning points. This conversation moves through Pluto as the great initiator, shame as a form of amnesia, surrender as courage (not collapse), and the profound difference between spiritual bypassing and true embodiment. They speak candidly about trauma, relationships as mirrors, soul contracts, neurodivergent sensitivity, and what happens when your inner scaffolding can no longer hold who you're becoming. This episode is for anyone who has outgrown surface answers, quick fixes, and performance-based healing — and is ready to sit inside the deeper truth of transformation.About Robin JillianRobin Jillian is an evolutionary astrologer, author, and guide whose work focuses on soul evolution, Pluto dynamics, and embodied transformation. Her memoir, Hugging Trees in the Dark: Finding Courage to Free the Heart, chronicles her own Dark Night of the Soul and the rebirth that followed.

There is one question underneath almost every message we receive.Is this safe?Is it safe for my child? Is it safe during pregnancy? Is it safe while breastfeeding? Is it safe if I am sick? Is it safe after chemo? Is it safe to keep taking the supplements when my child has an ear infection?My friends, we are asking the wrong question.In this episode, we are going to dive deep into the safety of rebalancing, and just as importantly, the flip side of that conversation, which is what actually happens when we leave bad bacteria, yeast, mold, fungus, parasites, heavy metals, and toxins in the body.Most people who find their way here have tried just about everything. You have likely tried every elimination diet, tried so many different supplements, you've spent hours and hours at appointments with different practitioners hoping someone would finally connect the dots, you've been told to wait it out, you've been told it's normal, you've been told that your child will outgrow it or that your symptom will just go away with time, and you've probably been given medications that suppress your or your child's symptoms but don't actually address the root issue. So of course you're skeptical, because when you've tried so many things and nothing has truly worked, it's easy to start losing hope.I know because I was you. I was in your exact place when I was trying so desperately to heal my son. I remember thinking, if it's really as simple as his gut needing to be rebalanced, why didn't one of the seventeen doctors I took him to tell me about this sooner? And underneath that question was a lot of fear.Rebalancing is not about doing something extreme. It is about giving the body the opportunity to finally reset, regulate, and heal instead of continuing to survive around a problem that will not resolve on its own.Healing is not the risk.Ignoring what the body has been asking for is.Thanks for listening!

[Interview] Returning to Connection in Chaotic Times: Indigenous Wisdom on Healing, Addiction, & Inner Freedom with James GoodinIn a world that feels increasingly intense—filled with fear, stress, and uncertainty—this episode of The Activate Change Podcast is an invitation back to connection, spiritual grounding, and inner freedom.Chloe Faith Urban sits down with Arrowhawk (James Goodin), a Cherokee elder, healer, and beloved mentor, for a candid conversation on prayer, ceremony, and Indigenous wisdom—and what it means to live in alignment with the sacred trinity of mind, body, and spirit. Arrowhawk shares how disconnection from the Earth, the divine, and each other can fuel isolation and chaos, and how ceremony as medicine can be woven into daily life—sometimes as simply as blessing your coffee with intention.You'll also hear powerful teachings on the sweat lodge ceremony as a path of healing and transformation, particularly for those navigating addiction recovery, burnout, grief, trauma, or a loss of meaning. Recorded in late fall, this conversation feels especially timely: a reminder that worthiness isn't earned, and that freedom is an inner choice, even when the outer world feels dominated by fear and control.Note: There's a brief audio shift mid-episode due to a recording interruption. We kept it in to preserve the integrity, wisdom, and healing medicine of the conversation.In This Episode We Explore:The sacred trinity of mind–body–spirit and why “everything comes in threes”How disconnection fuels isolation, anxiety, and social chaosDaily rituals and ceremony as tools for grounding, energy clearing, and resilienceThe sweat lodge as a ceremony for healing, transformation, and reconnecting to the selfHealing the healers: why helpers, therapists, and practitioners need support and renewalJoy, humor, and laughter as medicine in hard timesTeachings on freedom, domination, and choice from an Indigenous perspectiveFeather medicine and how different feathers support energetic healingWhy “unworthiness” is an illusion—and how to reclaim inherent worthAddiction and ceremony: finding your way back to yourself—“the answer is in the mirror.”Resources & LinksFor More About Arrowhawk and The Red Road to Wellness Center:https://www.facebook.com/groups/478758235503796/------------------------Our Free Gift:

In this episode of the Spirit and Soul podcast, Tiffany welcomes her chiropractor, Dr. Gabrielle Pajero, who shares her journey into chiropractic care and the importance of nervous system regulation. They discuss how emotional health impacts physical well-being, the role of chiropractic in promoting overall wellness, and personal stories that highlight the healing process. The conversation emphasizes the need for self-care, balance, and the understanding that healing comes from within. Follow Dr. Gabby at Pojero Family Chiropractic on Instagram @pojerofamilychiropractic Takeaways Chiropractic is not just about treating pain but promoting overall wellness.

Healing comes from within; chiropractors facilitate this process. Understanding the connection between mind and body is vital for health. Women often carry stress in their bodies, particularly in the heart area. Regular chiropractic care can help maintain wellness and prevent illness. It's important to listen to your body and recognize when it needs care. Finding joy and balance in life is crucial for overall health.

Send us a textWhen the house finally quiets and the freezer starts whispering promises it can't keep, we know that moment well. After a long day of decisions, kindness, and pressure, late-night eating can feel less like rebellion and more like protest—a longing for rest, agency, comfort, and voice. In this episode, we talk honestly about “protest eating,” tracing how decision fatigue and performance culture push deeper needs underground until the night gives them room to speak.Rather than shaming the cycle, we explore how scripture makes space for honest protest and exhaustion—Jonah's sulk, Elijah's weariness, the psalmist's cries, and Peter's denial met not with correction but with breakfast on the beach. We share practical ways to care for after-dark cravings, including gentle check-ins to name the real need, soothing rituals for the nervous system, and boundaries that honor hunger without numbing it. This is an invitation to choose peace over performance, presence over willpower, and community over isolation—especially when the night feels loud.Class starts December 10thhttps://teamlifeisgood.com/goSupport the showLearn more about our Revelation Within Community: https://www.revelationwithin.org

In this episode, Dr. Tony Ebel tackles one of the most common fears parents face: "Should I stop giving my child so many supplements?" He explores the critical difference between helpful supplementation and supplement dependency, revealing how the body can actually become reliant on external support rather than healing from the inside out.

You already know the basics, but when stress hits, you fall off and you start chasing the next hack, app, plan, podcast, or supplement.In this episode, Brandon Hall (CatholicWell) explains why the real battle is willpower, how stress and trauma can train your brain to live on high alert, and why the most underrated wellness practice is going inward.

You've done the work.You're self-aware.You can explain everyone's behavior in the situation…So why do you still feel triggered, exhausted, or quietly resentful?In this episode, Alicia breaks down why insight alone doesn't calm a dysregulated nervous system — and why high-functioning, emotionally intelligent stepmoms often struggle more, not less.This conversation is for the stepmom who:understands what's happening but still feels overwhelmedprides herself on being “the calm one”keeps asking, “Why isn't this working if I know better?”Alicia explores how self-awareness can accidentally turn into self-pressure, why explaining your feelings doesn't regulate them, and how emotional maturity has been confused with emotional suppression.Key takeaways from this episode:Why capable stepmoms struggle more than they expect toThe trap of “If I understand it, I won't feel it”How being self-aware can turn into being hard on yourselfWhy insight ≠ nervous system regulationHow unprocessed feelings quietly turn into resentmentIf you've ever thought, “I shouldn't feel this way anymore,” this episode will gently (and lovingly) call that out.

Send us a textFree Gift : Click here for MasterclassEver notice the tension where you know being visible is the next step: at work, in love, or in your direction and yet something in you quietly holds back?This episode goes straight to that contradiction.The block isn't a lack of confidence. And it isn't fear or self-doubt.It's a nervous system that learned, at some point, that visibility didn't lead to response, safety, or return, so it adapted by conserving energy. Not consciously. Automatically.We explore how attachment patterns and social environments teach systems when to offer themselves forward and when to withdraw. That withdrawal wasn't a failure. It was intelligent. It preserved dignity and stability when expression wasn't met.The problem is that this strategy doesn't automatically update when life changes.You'll hear why logic, mindset work, and “putting yourself out there” often fail here, not because they're wrong, but because systems don't respond to insight. They respond to conditions.This episode introduces a clear internal model: one part of you oriented toward expansion and contribution, and another responsible for safety and inhibition.Nothing is wrong with either part. The tension comes from how long one has been running the system alone.Rather than pushing for visibility, we reorient toward what allows systems to stand down on their own — the conditions under which expression becomes safe again and movement resumes without force.If what you're noticing right now isn't urgency or excitement, but a quiet readiness a sense that you're done being held back that's often the signal that structure, not pressure, is what's needed next.I've created a free masterclass that lays out the structure required for growth after withdrawal, not confidence training or hustle, but the conditions that allow a system to re-engage and rebuild.If that feels relevant, you'll find it at the top of the show notes.
Hey Team! Burnout is one of those terms we throw around a lot in the neurodivergent community, but often we don't realize we're in it until we've hit a wall. Today, I'm talking with Garrett Wood, a Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist and founder of Gnosis Therapy. Garrett specializes in working with high-achieving professionals—which is often code for high-masking folks—helping them navigate executive well-being and nervous system regulation. In our conversation, we dive into the nuances of burnout, specifically how it differs from just being tired, and we walk through the five stages of burnout so you can actually spot where you are on the map. We also get into some heavy but important stuff regarding self-worth and how we often subconsciously drive ourselves into the ground just to prove we're enough. If you'd life to follow along on the show notes page you can find that at HackingYourADHD.com/267 YouTube: https://tinyurl.com/y835cnrk Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/HackingYourADHD This Episode's Top Tips Understand that there are different levels of burnout. If you are getting a full eight hours of sleep but are still waking up exhausted, or if you find yourself unable to calm down after minor inconveniences (like getting cut off in traffic), you are likely already heading into Stage 1 or 2 of burnout. Make sure to pay attention to your specific physiological needs rather than general advice. You might be someone who needs 10 hours in bed to get 8 hours of actual sleep (I mean I'm not someone who gets in bed and is instantly asleep, it takes sometime and I'm a bit restless). Your physiological needs are unique to you and what you "need". If trying to rest and doing "nothing" feels anxiety-inducing, find a low-stakes activity like organizing books or doing a puzzle. These kinds of low-stakes tasks can provide a sense of accomplishment and soothing without the consequences or pressure of a work project.
AI meditations are everywhere right now—apps, chatbots, VR headsets promising calm in 10 minutes or less—but are AI meditations actually helping guys handle real stress, or just giving you one more screen to hide behind? In this episode, we get real about AI meditations, digital mindfulness, and whether any algorithm can truly replace a human teacher who sees you, feels the room, and knows when you're about to lose it. We sit down with guest expert Steve Haberlin, PhD, to explore the intersection of technology, meditation, and human awareness. Steve has spent years studying both traditional mindfulness practices and emerging tech—AI, virtual reality, and digital training tools—and asking hard questions about where mindfulness is headed.Together, they unpack what technology can genuinely support in mindfulness practice—and what it can't. They discuss the difference between guided experiences and embodied learning, why attention and nervous system regulation still require human relationship, and how men can engage technology without outsourcing responsibility for awareness.This episode isn't anti-tech. It's pro-discernment.In this conversation, you'll hear:• The rise of AI-guided meditation and VR mindfulness tools• What technology can accelerate—and what it cannot replace• Why embodiment and nervous system regulation matter more than insights• The risk of mistaking consumption for practice• How real teachers differ from algorithms• Where mindfulness is likely headed in the next decade• How men can use tech without avoiding responsibility or presenceIf you're curious about meditation apps, AI tools, or the future of mindfulness—but want grounded perspective instead of hype—this episode offers clarity.You'll walk away with:✅ A realistic understanding of AI's role in mindfulness✅ Language to evaluate meditation tools critically✅ A clearer sense of what real practice requires✅ Perspective on presence in an increasingly digital worldSponsor:Peptides for Health by Mark L.

Send us a textPeople love to ask a woman in an abusive relationship, “Why doesn't she just leave?”But leaving is not always safety. Sometimes it's the most dangerous step she can take, emotionally, physically, and even spiritually.In this powerful episode of The Dimple Bindra Show, we unpack what really happens inside an abusive, narcissistic relationship… and why so many women stay far longer than they want to.I'm joined by Dana S. Diaz, bestselling, award-winning author of the memoir trilogy Gasping for Air, Choking on Shame, and Rising from the Ashes. She's also a global speaker, podcast host, and one of the most sought-after guests of 2024, appearing on nearly 300 podcasts worldwide.Dana's story is one of survival, silence, awakening, and reclaiming her life after 25 years with a narcissistic, abusive partner.Together, we explore:Why leaving an abusive partner can actually be the most dangerous momentHow love bombing, apology cycles, and manipulation trap women in emotional quicksandWhy silence becomes survival and why that's not weakness, but traumaHow childhood abuse and neglect set women up to repeat the same relationships in adulthoodThe neuroscience behind why we are drawn to familiar painHow psychological abuse becomes physical violenceWhy women self-blame, self-silence, and stay even when their body is breaking downThe physical healing that began the moment he left the houseHow healthy love later triggered her old trauma patternsWhy self-sabotage shows up in safe relationshipsHow rebuilding trust in yourself is the foundation of rebuilding your lifeIf something moved in your chest or your gut while listening, that's not just a podcast moment, that's your soul saying: We're ready now.You don't have to heal in silence anymore.
What if everything you've been taught about success is wrong? In this powerful and eye-opening episode, Mike sits down with Yun Rhee—a visionary leader, community builder, human potential catalyst, and founder of The Elevated Oracle—for a conversation that bridges ancient spiritual wisdom with cutting-edge science. Yun brings a rare perspective on personal transformation, blending deep intuition with modern research to challenge conventional definitions of achievement and fulfillment. From her early journey as a Korean immigrant shaped by discipline, sacrifice, and perseverance, Yun reveals how the traditional model of "work harder to get ahead" left many disconnected from their true gifts. What followed was a profound awakening that led her into the worlds of energy work, paradigm shifting, quantum sound therapy, and conscious creation, reshaping how she approaches purpose, leadership, and human potential. Together, Mike and Yun explore energy alignment, subconscious reprogramming, and the science of quantum thinking, including the role of gamma brainwaves in creativity and peak performance. Yun explains how meditation, breathwork, nervous-system regulation, and quantum sound therapy can unlock hidden potential and restore energetic flow. Insightful, inspiring, and deeply empowering, this episode invites listeners to step beyond conditioning, reconnect with their higher self, and design a life guided by purpose, alignment, and possibility. IN THIS EPISODE: ➡️ QUANTUM AWAKENING: Breaking free from subconscious programming to activate untapped potential ➡️ ENERGY ALIGNED CREATION: How frequency, intention, and breath shape your reality ➡️ NERVES OF GREATNESS: Mastering the nervous system to unlock clarity, calm, and peak performance ➡️ COMMUNITY BY DESIGN: Building environments where technology, connection, and purpose converge

Send us a textIn this episode of the Autonomic Homeostasis Activation Podcast, Tom Pals and Ruth Lorensson explore how the brain thinks independently of the conscious mind—and how this capacity supports healing, clarity, and thriving.Building on their previous conversation, they examine the difference between mind-based problem solving and brain-based wisdom, introducing the concept of cognitive homeostasis. The discussion unpacks why the mind often loops in fear, trauma, and overanalysis, while the brain integrates information holistically and delivers insight through spontaneous “aha” moments.You'll learn:What cognitive homeostasis is and how it differs from somatic homeostasisWhy the brain generates involuntary insights, memories, and realizationsHow trauma and stress disrupt the brain–mind partnershipWhy “thinking harder” often blocks healing and problem-solvingHow Autonomic Homeostasis Activation (AHA) facilitates access to the brain's wisdomThis episode is especially relevant for anyone experiencing chronic stress, trauma patterns, health anxiety, or feeling stuck despite trying to “figure things out.”Support the showThanks for listening!You can follow us onFacebook Instagram Leave us a review on Apple Podcasts Check out the Autonomic Healing Website & InnerWorkings WebsiteEmail Tom thomasjpals@innerworkings.orgEmail Ruth ruth@bridgeandrhino.comSupport usWe appreciate you!
Are you overthinking…or under-processing? What if reflection was the missing piece to becoming (and receiving) everything you've ever wanted?Today, Tara Schuster returns to the Expanded Podcast to explore one of the most impactful healing modalities there is: journaling. Her latest book, This Journal F*cking Works, offers a science-backed and historical look at why journaling is so powerful, woven together with humor and Tara's own journey of rewriting internal narratives to break free from toxic, repetitive thought loops. It's an invitation to start “DMing with your soul” and to open up neural pathways of self-understanding, emotional processing, and healing.Jessica and Tara unpack why ritual matters. Not everything is about maximizing habits, productivity, or “doing it right.” Real transformation often comes from giving your brain space to process lived experience: to be honest, imperfect, and fully human. With this outlook, journaling becomes a bridge between science and intuition, seamlessly supporting your own TBM and personal growth practice.This conversation is for anyone who feels stuck in mental loops, wants a grounded and research-backed way to connect more deeply with intuition, and yearns to understand who they are at their core.**Trigger warning: Discussion of self-harm and abusive family dynamics at 00:07:10 through 00:09:28**Find the complete show notes here -> https://tobemagnetic.com/expanded-podcast Resources: Return to Magic - 15 Day Manifestation ChallengeA 15-day guided journey to reparent your inner child, reconnect with your magic, and step into this new year as your most confident, regulated, and magnetic self yet.

Why do so many people struggle with fatigue, stubborn weight gain, hormone issues, and burnout — even when they're eating “clean” and training hard? In this episode, we break down the real reason your body isn't healing and why most health advice fails to address the root cause.Joined by Lindsay Perry, this conversation dives deep into a systems-based approach to health, exploring how the gut, liver, hormones, nervous system, sleep, and stress all work together to control energy, metabolism, and long-term results.Rather than focusing on symptoms, trends, or extreme diets, this episode explains what's happening under the hood — from ATP production and mitochondrial function to cortisol regulation, nervous system balance, and metabolic flexibility. You'll learn why pushing harder often backfires and how chronic stress quietly sabotages recovery, fat loss, and hormone health.We cover:Why gut and liver health are foundational for hormones and energyHow stress and nervous system dysregulation block healing and fat lossThe role of sleep and circadian rhythm in metabolism and recoveryWhy detoxification and elimination are biological processes — not fadsHow to fuel properly based on stress, activity, and current health stateLindsay Perry brings real-world coaching insight throughout the episode, helping connect science with practical application for people who feel stuck despite doing “everything right.”If you're tired of surface-level health advice and want a clear, root-cause explanation of how the body actually heals, this episode will change how you think about health, fitness, and recovery.00:00 – Introduction & Why Most People Aren't Healing00:41 – The “March Method” & Root-Cause Health Explained01:02 – ATP, Mitochondria & Cellular Energy Basics01:19 – Hormones, Cycles & Why Balance Matters02:44 – Detox, Elimination & Why the Body Gets Stuck04:14 – Cold Exposure, Stress Adaptation & Recovery05:50 – Stress Load, Burnout & Early Cortisol Discussion07:55 – Fueling the Body: Fat vs Carbs Explained10:57 – Sleep, Circadian Rhythm & Metabolic Health12:12 – Gut Health: The Foundation of Healing15:48 – Liver Function, Detox Pathways & Hormones18:35 – Inflammation, Energy Deficits & Fatigue21:30 – Nervous System Regulation & Chronic Stress24:35 – Cortisol, Survival Mode & Weight Loss Resistance28:10 – Why Pushing Harder Makes Things Worse32:24 – Metabolic Flexibility & Long-Term Healing34:27 – Nervous System Reset & Final Takeaways35:57 – Closing ThoughtsDisclaimer:The information discussed in this episode is for educational and informational purposes only and is not intended as medical advice.

Feng shui, environmental health, and energy flow quietly influence your nervous system, your relationships, and your ability to create a life that actually feels aligned.This episode goes far beyond aesthetics or surface-level decluttering. We get into how your home functions as a living interface between your body, your mind, and the world around you. We talk about why ancient systems understood holistic health as incomplete without addressing space, how conscious living begins at home, and why ignoring your environment keeps you fighting the same internal battles on repeat.If you care about sovereignty, healing, and building a life that supports rather than drains you, this conversation will challenge how you see your bedroom, kitchen, office, and the land you live on. This is about reclaiming agency by understanding the structures you exist inside every day, and learning how to make them work for you instead of against you.You'll Learn:[00:00] Introduction[07:13] Space is the forgotten fourth health pillar of ancient traditions[12:57] The universal feng shui basics that work across all home types [19:01] How to declutter with children in the house[35:55] Counteracting feng shui challenges in existing homes[45:37] How the five feng shui elements connect to cardinal directions [01:07:00] The story of how every glass desk in an office led to total business collapse within 24 hours[01:12:08] How do you feng shui an apartment when surrounded by other people's energy?[01:35:58] Why decorating against your geography creates energetic breaks that sabotage manifestation[01:41:24] Why rectangular spaces provide the necessary structure for manifesting, while domes keep you circling[01:52:26] Why feng shui is a living philosophy of presence and reverence, not a decorating techniqueJust starting out with Feng Shui and energy work?

In this Ask Dr. Tony episode, Dr. Tony Ebel tackles one of the most requested questions: Can chiropractic care help with OCD? He explains how OCD is rooted in a nervous system stuck in 24/7 fight-or-flight mode and breaks down the neuroscience behind it—including the roles of the amygdala, prefrontal cortex, and vagus nerve. Dr. Tony reveals why traditional approaches often miss the mark and how neurologically-focused chiropractic care works from the inside out to calm an overactive nervous system and create a stronger foundation for healing. This episode offers real, drug-free hope to families struggling with OCD and anxiety.-----Links & ResourcesResearch shows kids with OCD and anxiety often have altered prefrontal cortex activity, affecting focus, emotional control, and behavior.

Send me a some feedback!In Part Three of our ongoing series, Mike and Angie dive into one of the most foundational — and misunderstood — forces shaping relationships: the nervous system. This episode explores why so many relationships become survival-based, how unconscious emotional “APPs” get installed in the body, and what it actually takes to move into a conscious, sovereign partnership. This conversation is not about fixing your partner or avoiding triggers — it's about learning how to regulate your own internal world so connection no longer feels like a threat.Key TakeawaysThe nervous system is always trying to keep you alive, not happy. Much of relationship conflict comes from the body's instinct to seek familiarity and avoid past pain, not from what's actually happening in the present moment.Most emotional reactions are markers of the past, not indicators of truth. Triggers reveal stored emotional energy from earlier experiences that are still running in the background.Unconscious relationships outsource emotional regulation to the partner. When someone doesn't know how to work with their own nervous system, they try to get the other person to change so they can feel safe.Conscious relationships require nervous system regulation, not control. Learning how to process emotions internally removes the need to manipulate, demand, or fix the other person.Triggers are invitations for growth, not signs of failure. When met with awareness and tools, emotional reactions become gateways to deeper freedom and sovereignty.Noteable Quotes“When there's two people like us that were unregulated in our nervous system, then we're just fighting for survival.” “All emotion is our markers of the past. They have nothing to do with the present moment.” “You're trying to rearrange the external world so that your nervous system can be okay.” “Nobody can take that feeling away.” “If your mind and your emotions go up and down with your bank account, you are money's bitch.” Call to ActionIf this episode resonates, get a copy of Mike's latest book, Inner World, Outer World, featuring a powerful foreword by Angie, to deepen your understanding of how to step into a more conscious way of BEing.
