They are not their shame. There is always a way out—and that way is inward.” — Rachel KrentzmanHighlights:How generational trauma shaped Rachel's early lifeThe emotional toll—and liberation—of telling the truth publiclyWhat it's like raising children in Israel amid war and instabilityWhy yoga therapy is growing rapidly in Israel's healthcare systemThe nervous system, trauma, and how breathwork offered relief when even pain meds couldn'tA vision for yoga therapy as a vital component of integrative medicineLearn More: Visit Rachel's website to purchase As Is and learn more about her work: www.rachelkrentzman.com As Is is available worldwide on Kindle, paperback, and major book retailers.About Rachel Krentzman:Rachel is a licensed physical therapist, certified yoga therapist (C-IAYT), and a graduate of the Hakomi Institute's somatic psychotherapy training.

What does it mean to be a compassionate alpha as a parent? It's not about being harsh or domineering, and it's not about being passive or permissive either. It's about finding that steady, sturdy ground between strength and warmth.In this episode, I unpack the term Compassionate Alpha (learned from Dr. Gordon Neufeld) and share why kids need a parent who can lead with both firmness and kindness. You'll hear why being “too soft” spikes a child's anxiety, why being “too hard” erodes trust, and how calm, confident leadership creates the safety kids need in order to just be kids.We'll explore:What a compassionate alpha parent really looks like in actionWhy connection must come before correctionHow sturdy leadership calms a child's nervous systemThe dangers of swinging to either extreme — passive or authoritarianPractical ways to embody calm, kind authority (even when you mess up)When you step into this role, your child can rest. They don't have to take charge. They don't have to fight for your attention or protection. They know you've got them. And that's the soil where trust, maturity, and deep connection grow.Tune in to learn how to lead with confidence and compassion — sturdy and kind, the way your kids need you most.Ready to go deeper with Connect Method Parenting?

What if the birth certificate was never for your baby—but a tool of control used by the state?In this episode, I sit down with Veda Ray, a freebirthing mother of two, who chose to walk a path most women never even consider: birthing and raising her second child completely outside the system. No pregnancy test. No monitoring. No birth certificate. No social security number.After her first birth at a birth center, Veda knew she wanted something different. This time, she listened deeply—to her body, to her baby, and to her own intuition—and what she heard was clear: this child was to be born free.We go deep into the realities of living outside the system, including how she navigated the legal terrain to secure a passport without government-issued ID, why she believes the birth certificate is a jurisdictional trap, and the spiritual responsibility of saying no to the state's contracts.Inside this episode:What really happens when you don't get a birth certificate or Social Security number for your childThe process Veda used to get a passport without a state-issued IDWhy a “family Bible” can hold legal weight in proving lineage and identityHow the social security number binds your child into the U.S. corporate systemThe link between freebirth and reclaiming jurisdiction over your body and familyWhat it's like to raise a child who has never been registered by the stateThe unseen cost of outsourcing authority—and what you reclaim when you stopTimestamps:[00:00] Introduction[02:01] Choosing radical self-trust after rejecting the medical model[09:21] Learning to sit in the unknown and trust yourself through freebirth[22:54] Rethinking the birth certificate as a contract with the state and choosing a sovereign path instead[26:08] Creating private records to get a passport without a birth certificate[36:47] Using private trusts and EINs as alternatives to social security numbers and state contracts[52:44] Facing fear, claiming trust, and birthing in full sovereignty with family by your sideResources Mentioned:The Business of Being Born | MovieIf you want to connect with Veda, you can find her website here, and follow her @veda.revival.Find more from Emilee on Instagram, YouTube and the Free Birth Society website.Disclaimer: Free Birth Society, LLC of North Carolina shares personal and educational stories and experiences related to freebirth and holistic care.

For high-capacity leaders, gentleness can feel unfamiliar — even unsafe. This episode redefines softness as strategic, spiritual strength and invites you to reclaim capacity through recalibration.For the high-capacity leader, gentleness isn't the first instinct — it's often the final frontier. You've built systems, scaled teams, and led through storms. But under the weight of your current reality, something quieter is calling.In this episode, Julie Holly shares her own recalibration journey: from adrenaline-driven activity to restorative leadership rhythms. She unpacks how your nervous system may be operating in quiet bracing mode — and how gentleness can become your most strategic strength.Drawing from the life of Fred Rogers, this conversation redefines what real leadership looks like when force is no longer the driver and peace becomes the power.This episode is for the leader who:Feels disconnected from softness or tendernessConfuses hustle with worth and action with valueLeads effectively externally but feels fractured internallyCraves clarity and capacity, not just calmKey takeaways include:Why decades of subtle bracing exhaust your nervous systemThe link between emotional safety and sustainable leadershipWhy gentleness is not weakness — it's wisdom, it's leadershipWhat recalibrated physical rhythms can unlock emotionallyToday's Micro Recalibration:Where in your life have you mistaken pressure for leadership?Where can gentleness begin to take root?Recalibration for Leaders:If you lead a team, a community, a household — model gentleness. Normalize presence. Ask your team what support feels like, not just what output looks like.If this episode gave you language you've been missing, please rate and review the show so more high-capacity humans can find it.

Send us a textYou're doing the mindset work. You're showing up. You've got strategy in place.But the results still aren't reflecting the energy you're putting in. Why?Because most entrepreneurs are leaking energy they don't even realize they're leaking and it's quietly sabotaging everything from conversion to capacity.In this episode, we dive deep into the hidden costs of poor emotional hygiene in business. I'm talking about the unprocessed resentment, silent expectations, anxious content creation, and subtle fawning that eat up your time, dilute your leadership, and collapse your boundaries.If you've ever felt drained after showing up online, or like you're holding everything together but still not moving forward, this one's going to hit hard (in the best way).In this episode:What “emotional hygiene” really means (and why it matters more than mindset work alone)How over-functioning, over-caretaking, and emotional outsourcing show up in businessSigns you're leaking energy in your messaging, client delivery, and contentWhy being high-capacity isn't the same as being well-resourcedHow to build a business that holds your ambition without draining your nervous systemThe truth about boundaries, burnout, and building wealth without emotional bleed-outWith love,Robyn xoP.S.

Your neurons can become younger.Your gut can reshape itself in five days.Your immune system can learn to fight cancer.This isn't theory. It's mycology.And it's about to change how you think about what your body can do.This week on Live Well Be Well, I sit down with Dr. Catalina Fernández de Ana Portela, a pioneering mycologist and oncologist who's spent 26 years unlocking the therapeutic power of mushrooms. From Lion's Mane and Reishi to Cordyceps, she's led clinical trials across cancer, autism, neurodegenerative disease, and fertility, quietly reshaping how we think about prevention, healing, and the intelligence of nature.In this episode, we explore:The real science behind Lion's Mane: neuroplasticity, contains GABA, and why your neurons can actually become youngerWhy Lion's Mane may support brain health, gut health, autism, Alzheimer's, multiple sclerosis, and Parkinson's treatmentHow Reishi could help reduce stress and anxiety, and modulate neurotransmitters like GABAThe real science behind putting mushrooms in your coffee (yes, it's more than a trend!)What Cordyceps does for energy, fertility, and performance, and how mushrooms support both male and female reproductive healthBreakthrough research on mushrooms in integrative oncology, including their effects on the gut microbiome and immune systemThe gut-brain axis: how mushrooms can reshape your microbiome in 5 days and support conditions from autism to cancerThe supplement quality crisis: why only 25% of products contain what they claim and how to find trustworthy brandsWhether you're curious about adding Lion's Mane to your morning coffee, wondering if Reishi could actually help your anxiety, or want to understand how mushrooms are being used alongside chemotherapy in clinical trials, this conversation will change how you think about what's possible. The question isn't whether mushrooms work. The science is undeniable. Now it's about finding the right approach for you.Love,Sarah Ann

What if the way we care for new mothers is all wrong?Not just lacking. Not just outdated. But built on a model that misses the heart and soul of what postpartum truly is — and what it could be.When I was a home birth midwife, postpartum care was the care. I'd visit mamas and babies at home five or six times in the first few weeks. We'd talk about everything — from latch to lochia, sleep deprivation to soul shifts. It wasn't "extra." It was essential.It's part of why I went into medicine, because as a midwife I saw too often, how in this precious, vulnerable, formative window for mothers and babies - care just disappeared for the mother after the baby was born. A first visit may have been 6 or 8 weeks after the birth, by which time mothers were struggling alone with overwhelm, breastfeeding challenges, or worse, anxiety, depression, isolation, and sometimes they'd given up breastfeeding because they had no support. And when they did get care, all too often they had to sit in waiting rooms, a baby and toddler often in tow, waiting for an appointment only to get 15 minutes with a doctor whose had no idea to support mothers postpartum. This week on On Health, I'm joined by my long-time colleague and kindred spirit Dr. Eva Zasloff — a fellow family physician, artist, mother, and fellow revolutionary in postpartum care — to talk about the radical simplicity and profound necessity of caring for mothers in their homes, in their own rhythm, and on their own terms. Inside the Episode We Talk About:The surprising (and heartbreaking) truth about conventional postpartum visitsWhy 20-minute clinic appointments can do more harm than goodEva's bold leap from family doctor to founder of Tova Health — a home-based, whole-person care model serving over 600 familiesThe “twilight zone” of early motherhood — and how we can hold space for itWhat home visits offer that clinic visits never canWhy postpartum depression and anxiety are often symptoms of a broken systemThe healing power of birth stories, coconut oil massages, and Zoom mama circles that make a differenceWhat Eva is doing with Tova Health, and what I'm doing with The Mama Pathway, are not just beautiful experiences for mothers— they're necessary for maternal health. It's a return to wisdom we've always known. And it's a model I dream of seeing in communities everywhere.If you're a doula, a midwife, a family doc, or a mama (or someone who loves one), this episode will touch you deeply — and perhaps inspire you to bring this care into your own community or at least raise your awareness about the importance of listening to, being with, and supporting new mothers.
