Magnesium deficiency symptoms are often missed on standard blood tests. In this video, we explore the key benefits of magnesium, common hidden magnesium deficiency symptoms, and how magnesium may help support anxiety, sleep, stress, and overall wellness.Download Dr. Berg's Free Daily Health Routine: https://drbrg.co/45qtO070:00 Introduction: Hidden magnesium deficiency symptoms 1:02 What causes magnesium deficiency?1:36 Magnesium for anxiety 2:21 Eye twitching and magnesium deficiency6:11 What kind of magnesium to take6:37 Magnesium glycinate benefits7:17 When to take magnesium8:13 Health tips to avoid magnesium deficiency8:47 Magnesium and vitamin DMost of the magnesium in your body is inside your bones and cells. Only 0.3% of your magnesium is in your blood serum. One of the biggest mistakes people make when assessing magnesium deficiency is relying on blood magnesium levels.Over 300 medications can deplete your magnesium levels. Other factors that can cause magnesium deficiency include the following:• Stress• Sugar• Caffeine • Alcohol• High insulin • Low stomach acid• Low salt• Low vitamin DHere are 9 of the most common magnesium deficiency symptoms:1. Anxiety/panic attacks2. Waking up at 2 AM3. Eye twitching (tetany)4. Heart pounding after eating5. Exhausted from thinking 6. Random chest tightness7. Sugar or carb cravings8. Wired but tired 9. Feeling heavyRestless legs syndrome can also result from a magnesium deficiency.Magnesium oxide is one of the most common forms of magnesium available, but also the worst! It has a 3% absorption rate and can cause diarrhea at higher doses. Magnesium glycinate combines magnesium with glycine, a protein that supports GABA in the brain, and has an absorption rate of 80%. The best time to take magnesium is late in the day. When taking more than 400 mg of magnesium, spread your doses throughout the day.To avoid magnesium deficiency, follow a low-carb diet, increase your stomach acid, and ensure you're getting enough vitamin D.Dr. Eric Berg DC Bio:Dr. Berg, age 60, is a chiropractor who specializes in Healthy Ketosis & Intermittent Fasting.

In this episode of Wild & Waking, Emily sits down with Hope Pedraza, a functional wellness practitioner who works at the intersection of science, energetics, and embodied healing. Together, they explore why burnout isn't a personal failure or a productivity problem, it's a signal that old paradigms of success, worth, and wellness are no longer sustainable. This conversation is a powerful invitation to reimagine healing through the lens of worthiness, nervous system regulation, and inner authority.Hope shares her integrative approach to functional wellness, weaving together mineral balancing, nervous system healing, Human Design, subconscious work, and frequency medicine to help high-achieving women restore energy and vitality. Rather than treating symptoms in isolation, she explains how burnout often stems from deeper emotional and energetic roots, especially the worthiness wound that conditions women to tie their value to productivity, overgiving, and constant doing.This conversation is for the woman who feels exhausted but deeply self-aware, who knows something is off even when labs look “normal,” and who is ready to listen to her body as the final authority. If you're navigating burnout, identity shifts, or the next evolution of your leadership, this episode offers a grounded yet expansive look at what functional wellness can become when science, energetics, and self-trust meet.In this episode, we explore:Why burnout isn't a hormone problem, productivity issue, or personal failure — but a signal that old paradigms of success and self-worth are no longer sustainableHow tying your worth to productivity impacts the nervous system, hormones, energy levels, and long-term healthThe role of the nervous system in burnout, chronic fatigue, brain fog, anxiety, and feeling “off” even when labs look normalWhy cultivating safety around rest is foundational to healing — and why rest often doesn't feel safe for driven womenWhy minerals are a foundational missing link in both conventional and holistic approaches to burnout recoveryThe connection between emotional stress, subconscious patterns, and physical symptoms in the bodyHow Human Design helps women understand their natural energy patterns, boundaries, and inner authorityWhy living out of alignment with your design contributes to burnout, depletion, and nervous system dysregulationHow subconscious reprogramming, hypnotherapy, EFT, and parts work support nervous system healingWhy intellectualizing healing often isn't enough — and what it takes to create real integrationWhat functional wellness looks like when science, energetics, and embodiment are woven togetherWhy healing often requires an identity shift — and the grief that can come with releasing who you used to beHow listening to the body as the final authority changes the way we approach health, leadership, and lifeBe sure to hit subscribe so you never miss the latest episode!Connect with Hope Pedraza:If this conversation resonated and you're curious about working with Hope or exploring her work more deeply, you can connect with her in the following ways:Website: hopefulandwholesome.comInstagram: @thehopepedrazaFacebook: @thehopepedrazaYouTube: @hopepedrazaPodcast: Hopeful and WholesomeBook a Discovery CallConnect with Emily:Website: www.EmilyReuschel.comInstagram: @emilyreuschelFacebook: Emily ReuschelLinkedIn: Emily ReuschelJoin my Book Insiders List: Sign up here!Resources and Links:Episode 158 | You Are Nature: Reclaiming Your Rhythm Through the Sacred Cycles of Body, Moon & EarthSign up here to get the inside scoop to my book writing journey!Book me as a speaker for your next event - email inquiries to emilyreuschel@gmail.com or schedule a call hereWild & Waking – Produced by Jill Carr Podcasting | Learn More

I just want you to knowthat if you need love right now,love is here.Feel it flowing between us.Whoever needs hope right now—there are plenty of reasons to feel hopeless.But this message arriving to you right nowis evidence of hope.Hope is something cultivated between us.It doesn't just appear.We make hope happen.If you're wondering who is out therewho understands,I want you to know:there is.It's not just that you're not alone.It's that many of us are feelingthe same feelings you feel.Even though it may seem likeyou are the only one inside this lifefeeling this way.Isolation can make it seem that way.And for whoever feels likethis life might not be worth it—I'm here to remind you:it's worth it.But you have to make it worth it.My mother Caron said something once:the point is, you must design a point for yourself.Life is worth it.But that doesn't mean everythingis going to work out.It's part of the human conditionthat everything doesn't work out.I'm not saying life is worth itbecause things will go your way.Some things will.Some things won't.That is the common thread between us.It's not all going to work out.But the things that do—those need to be cherished.Celebrated.The rising of the sun.The first birds of the morning.Winter citrus on the vine.Petting your cat.Being warm enough.Coffee in your cup.Waking up can be hardwhen everything around usfeels chaotic.You must look for beautyeverywhere.We can bring our own meaningto everything that is happening.We have to bring our own meaning.Borrowed meaning about this lifedoesn't work.I wish someone had told us that sooner.You have to make your own meaningjust like you have to make a point.We think a lot about the pastand how we cannot change it.But we can find a new contextthat makes it meaningful now.I'm not one of those peoplewho believes everything happens for a reason.I don't.I believe in mistakes.I don't think you chose your trauma.Or that you deserved it.Or bargained for it.Or that it was karma.And I don't believe you agreed to itin some previous incarnation.I know some people do.I don't.I do believe in an intelligent universe.But a universe that scripts sufferingfeels more manipulative than intelligent.I like to believe our soulsare far too wiseto choose to be victimsand perpetratorsover and over again.How's that working out for us?What I do believeis that power-over structuresare doing their bestto remove our capacityto remember that we have choice.It's a potent strategy.If we believe we don't have a choice,we stop looking for one.And I want to validate something:You have every reasonto feel miserable,depressed,or hopeless.This isn't misery loving company.It's simply honest.I feel the temptation myselfbecause of what's happening around us.The wars.The files.The behaviors.The administrations.The commentary.The price of cheese.Really.And yet—right now,if you're reading this,I want to remind youthat the curation of your consciousnessis yours to do.And truly,that is the work.To curate your consciousness.To move out of the default settingsof personality and circumstanceand decide:From now on,I will curate my consciousness.To do that,we need intentional chemistry.Even with chaos around you,your consciousnessis still yours to navigate.Until we realize that,life feels like it's happening to usinstead of through us.Curating consciousnessis a choiceday by day.A choice to repair the narrativethat has been deeply impactedinside each of usthrough cycles of conquestand devastationacross space, time, and place.Our souls knowthere is another way.That's where hope comes from.Because there is another way.And we know it.Part of what makes this moment hardis that we can feela better way is possible.Each one of us can choose that way.In every decision.Every relationship.Every moment.We can chooseto lead from the heart.The choice is ours—if we remember we have it.I know that many timesit doesn't feel that wayin our hearts,our bodies,our minds.But I want to tell you:you do have a choice.Some daysthe only assignmentis to reach towardthe possibility of a choice.The fragment of a choice.The fractal edge of a choice.Even if you cannot yet feel itas a lived experience.Choice as a lived experienceis still there.And I'm hereas evidence of that.Years agoI created a paintingwith two of my dear friends,Mary MacDonaldand Shannon Thompson,founder of Shakti Rising.Shannon passed away suddenlya few years ago.Just when life was opening for her—a new home,married,finally slowing downafter a life of service.She's not here in the form anymore.But she is one of my ancestors now.When I would talk to Shannonabout hope like this,she would laugh at me.A big cackle.At my optimism.But we shared a devotionto life,to women,to care,to the Divine Feminine.We gave our livesto tending that.To curating it.Today I don't know exactlywho this message is for.But I am thinking of Shannon.And I'm thinking of a young girlwith the initials K.L.A girl who lived in my home once.A girl I helpedmove through selective mutenessthrough creativity.A girl whose father couldn't help her.When her brother was dying,I held her hand.When she tried to take her life,and survived,we painted together.Her life has been hard.Very hard.I haven't been in touch for a long time.But I see her sometimes.Her eyes look hollow now.Tattoos on her face.She has enduredsome of the worst thingsmen can doto women and girls.So I send messages.Sometimes through her mother.Sometimes just into the field.Speaking to herat the level of soul.Because after what she has lived throughhope can be very hard to find.So I speak to her.To you.From my heart to yours.Right nowI'm about to have tea with the muse.This is one of the waysI practice intentional chemistry.Moving from beta—stress, reaction, problem-solving—into alpha.Into an intuitive love zone.Sometimes sending you these messagesdoes that for me.Loving youlifts my mood.So from my heartand my homeand my cup of

In this episode, we perceive a woman’s anger, as portrayed in Sangam Literary work, Aganaanooru 196, penned by Paranar. The verse is situated amidst the uproarious streets of the ‘Marutham’ or ‘Farmlands landscape’ and contrasts the nature of men and women. நெடுங் கொடி நுடங்கும் நறவு மலி பாக்கத்து,நாள் துறைப்பட்ட மோட்டு இரு வராஅல்துடிக்கண் கொழுங் குறை நொடுத்து, உண்டு ஆடி,வேட்டம் மறந்து, துஞ்சும் கொழுநர்க்குப் பாட்டிஆம்பல் அகல் இலை, அமலை வெஞ் சோறுதீம் புளிப் பிரம்பின் திரள்கனி பெய்து,விடியல் வைகறை இடூஉம் ஊர!தொடுகலம் குறுக வாரல் தந்தைகண் கவின் அழித்ததன் தப்பல், தெறுவர,ஒன்றுமொழிக் கோசர்க் கொன்று, முரண் போகிய,கடுந் தேர்த் திதியன் அழுந்தை கொடுங் குழைஅன்னிமிஞிலியின் இயலும்நின் நலத் தகுவியை முயங்கிய மார்பே. In this quick, little trip to this domain, we see interesting sights and get to hear the lady say these words to the man, when he returns home after being with the courtesan: “In those streets, fluttering with tall flags and brimming with fragrant toddy, after selling the drum-eye-like, fatty pieces of the murrel fish ,with huge bellies, caught during the day at the shore, they drink and dance, and then forgetting the next day's hunt, the men sleep on. For these husbands of theirs, daughters of bards, spread hot, cooked rice on wide leaves of the water lily, and pour sweet-sour curry of the thick tamarind fruit, and serve them in the early hours of the morning in your town, O lord! For the mistake of ruining the health of her father's eyes, with fury, she killed the Kosars, who are men of their word, with the aid of 'Thithiyan', who wields speeding chariots, in the town of Azhunthai, and quenched her enmity. Like this Anni Mignili, who wears curving heavy earrings, that woman, you deem so fitting for you, walks around with pride. I shall not touch the chest of yours that she has embraced! Come not near me!” Time to see the exuberant and emotional sights of the farmlands! The lady starts by describing the man’s town, and to do that, she zooms on to the men of the town, who catch murrel fish in the river shores, sell these in the evening markets, where flags flutter with flourish. Then, they procure the abundant toddy, eat, drink and make merry, and retire to their homes. So tired out by these exertions they are, that they sleep on, forgetting the next day’s work. Waking them up, their loving wives serve them a tasty meal of cooked rice and sweet-sour curry of tamarind, the lady details. Could this be hangover medicine?  Returning, after describing the man’s town, we find the lady switching gears and talking about a historic event, wherein a lady named Anni Mignili was furious because the tribe of Kosars had hurt her father, and to take revenge, she seeks the aid of a king called ‘Thithiyan’ and in the town of ‘Azhunthai’, kills the Kosars. Just the way that lady walked about, content and proud, at the successful fulfilment of her wish, the man’s courtesan moves around, the lady connects, and concludes by telling him that she has no wish of touching the man’s chest, which had been embraced by the said courtesan and asks him to move away from her.  As we can clearly see, the lady’s ire is on fire! She’s angered about how the courtesan has won over her husband, as projected by the simile of Anni Mignili’s vengeful victory. In the description of the men and the women of the man’s town, the lady intends to place a metaphor for how the men seemed to forget their duty in their pleasure-intent revels, whereas their wives were the epitome of chastity, who fulfilled their duties without fail, and connects to the contrast of her man’s pleasure-seeking and her own duty-mindedness. Interesting how society and history lend their hands to sculpt the scene of this intimate tussle at home!

This episode marks the powerful finale of the four-part Wild & Waking Journey series — and we are closing with the phase that changes everything: The RiseThroughout this identity evolution series, we've walked through The Unraveling, The Remembering, and The Reclamation; the sacred undoing, the return to intuition, the courageous choosing. Now, in this final installment, Emily brings language to what happens next. The Rise is not a finish line or a glow-up. It's embodied leadership. It's self-trust in action. It's the moment your inner transformation begins to ripple outward into your voice, your relationships, your work, your motherhood, your community, and your legacy.If you've been navigating identity deconstruction, spiritual awakening, authentic self-expression, or stepping into greater visibility without self-abandonment, this episode will meet you exactly where you are. The Wild & Waking Framework is cyclical, not linear. You may be rising in one area while unraveling in another, and that is not failure. That is growth.This is the inhale and exhale of a woman who knows who she is and is no longer afraid to let the world feel it.In this episode, I explore:What The Rise really means inside the Wild & Waking Framework — embodied leadership, authentic self-expression, and identity evolution in actionHow personal transformation becomes collective impact — and why women who have done deep identity work are being called forward right nowThe difference between performative visibility and grounded, aligned visibility rooted in self-trustHow to expand your voice, influence, and leadership without self-abandonment, people-pleasing, or chasing external validationChanneling anger, fire, and rage into intentional, focused change rather than chaos — leadership through regulated embodimentHow identity deconstruction, spiritual awakening, and self-trust create ripple effects in your family, business, rural community, and lineageThe role of women in social change, cultural shifts, and rebuilding systems from the inside outExpanding visibility while building the nervous system capacity to be seenPractical reflection questions to help you identify where life is asking you to rise right nowBe sure to hit subscribe so you never miss the latest episode!Connect with Emily:Website: www.EmilyReuschel.comInstagram: @emilyreuschelFacebook: Emily ReuschelLinkedIn: Emily ReuschelJoin my Book Insiders List: Sign up here!Resources and Links:Episode 152 | The Alchemy Behind Wild & Waking: a Year of Investment, Expansion, and ReclamationEpisode 183 | The Wild & Waking Journey: UnravelingEpisode 185 | The Wild & Waking Journey: RememberingEpisode 187 | The Wild & Waking Journey: ReclamationSign up here to get the inside scoop to my book writing journey!Book me as a speaker for your next event - email inquiries to emilyreuschel@gmail.com or schedule a call hereWild & Waking – Produced by Jill Carr Podcasting | Learn More

Send Us a Message!Feeling the wind pick up right as you exhale? Waking at 2 a.m. with vivid images and next steps? We lean into those moments and show how shamanism turns them into reliable guidance for everyday life. From blessing water to drumming into trance, we walk through simple, repeatable practices that calm the mind, restore energy, and help you act with clarity.In this episode you'll explore:Shamanism as presence, not doctrineListening to wind, sun, and seasons for cuesDrumming and rattles for trance and soul retrievalMeeting and embodying power animalsShadow work through energy centers and elementsCalling on loving ancestors for supportWe unpack animism in plain language: everything carries spirit, and the elements are willing collaborators. Water rinses what you no longer need. Wind clears busy thoughts. Earth holds and composts. Fire transforms. We share stories from outdoor Reiki sessions, group drumming, and those uncanny times when nature answers a prayer in real time. You'll hear how power animals show up with specific medicine—sometimes ferocity, often rest and nourishment—and how embodying their traits changes posture, breath, and daily choices.Shadow work runs beneath it all. We talk through meeting anger and grief without flinching, working through the energy centers, and calling back lost parts with compassion. As clarity returns, health habits shift, boundaries strengthen, and community appears where expansion is welcomed. No dogma. No one-size-fits-all routine. Just tools you can adapt—breath, smudge, journeying, journaling—to access self-sourced wisdom on command.We also open early bird enrollment for our five-month Soul Rising Shamanic Reiki program, designed for real schedules with flexible call times, recordings, and an app-based community.

Most of us know about the “fight, flight, freeze” responses to trauma. But there is another concept that has been steadily gaining awareness over the last several years, in large part due to pop psychology on social media: Fawning.You might have heard it described as akin to extreme people-pleasing, over-accommodating, over-functioning, and fundamentally a problem in the person doing the fawning. But as my guest today illuminates for us, it's not a personal failing, or even always a conscious choice. It is human nature to prioritize safety and connection, and fawning is a means of keeping ourselves safe. But when fawning runs the show, self-leadership diminishes and quietly drifts toward conflict-avoiding, blurred boundaries, and self-abandonment.Waking up to your fawning response takes courage. You will meet resistance from some as you shift the dynamics of your relationships. But it also unlocks deeper intimacy, more honest connection, and the joy that comes from trusting yourself and letting others meet the real you.This conversation invites you to consider where and with whom you fawn, and how you might want to respond in the future. Fawning has a real purpose when safety is on the line, but the more we are aware of it, the more we can be intentional about how we show up in our relationships.Ingrid Clayton is a licensed clinical psychologist with a master's degree in transpersonal psychology and a Ph.D. in clinical psychology. In her private practice in Los Angeles she supports individuals in healing trauma, reclaiming agency, and reconnecting to their authentic selves.She is a regular contributor to Psychology Today, and her work has been featured in Oprah Daily, The New York Times, Women's Health, Forbes, 10% Happier with Dan Harris, Girls Gotta Eat, and NPR's On Point with Meghna Chakrabarti. Ingrid's latest book, Fawning: Why the Need to Please Makes Us Lose Ourselves and How to Find Our Way Back, explores the often-overlooked fawn response to trauma.Listen to the full episode to hear:Why fawning shows up as an unconscious response to ongoing relational traumaHow understanding fawning helped Ingrid understand and heal from her own complex traumaHow our culture demands and reinforces fawning for women and marginalized peopleThe often very real bind of choosing safety over self and the feedback loop it createsAccessible practices to build a sense of internal safety and self-trustHow chronic fawning and self-abandonment contribute to burnoutLearn more about Ingrid Clayton, PhD:WebsiteInstagram: @ingridclaytonphdFacebook: @ingridclaytonphdYouTube: @ingridclaytonphdUnfawning on SubstackFawning: Why the Need to Please Makes Us Lose Ourselves–and How to Find Our Way BackBelieving Me: Healing from Narcissistic Abuse and Complex TraumaLearn more about Rebecca:rebeccaching.comWork With RebeccaThe Unburdened Leader on SubstackSign up for the weekly Unburdened Leader EmailResources:What Is the Fawning Trauma Response? | Psychology TodayPeter LevineThe Greatest Showman Cast - This Is MeThe Traitors

In this episode of Wild & Waking, Emily sits down with business coach Sara Dann for a bold, honest conversation about what happens when the “good girl” way of succeeding stops working. Inspired by Sara's viral reflection on why good girl behavior won't be rewarded in 2026, this conversation explores the deep unraveling many women experience when overfunctioning, overachieving, and self-abandonment no longer deliver fulfillment — even when the business looks successful on paper.Together, Emily and Sara unpack what Sara calls the “good girl conditioning” so many women have been socialized into: proving worth through productivity, staying humble, avoiding disruption, prioritizing likability, and following rules that once felt safe but now feel suffocating. They explore the moment women hit an internal wall — when resentment creeps in, desire goes quiet, and success starts to feel heavy instead of expansive — and why this isn't a failure, but an invitation into reinvention.Sara shares her own story of building a multi-million-dollar business while deeply disconnected from herself, and the long, messy process of reclaiming desire, embodiment, and personal power. This conversation moves beyond strategy into identity; naming the grief that comes with outgrowing former versions of yourself, the fear of letting go of what “worked,” and the courage it takes to stop performing past identities in order to be fully seen.This episode is for the woman who knows she's outgrown the way she's been doing life or business, who feels the quiet (or loud) pull toward something more aligned, and who is ready to lead from desire instead of obligation. It's a reminder that reinvention isn't reckless — it's a reclamation. And that the collapse of good girl conditioning is often the beginning of becoming a powerful, fully expressed woman.In this episode, we explore:What “good girl conditioning” looks like in practiceWhy resentment, boredom, and resistance are often early signals that a woman has outgrown her current identity or way of workingThe moment success stops feeling fulfilling — and how that internal discomfort is often the beginning of reinvention, not a sign something has gone wrongWhy so many women struggle to answer the question “What do I actually want?” and how conditioning, fear, and responsibility distort desireThe role of desire as a compass — not as something reckless or impractical, but as an essential guide for aligned leadership and decision-makingThe difference between intellectual readiness and embodied readiness when it comes to reinvention and visibilityThe grief and uncertainty that can accompany letting go of former identities, business models, or versions of yourself that once workedHow women give their power away by tying their success to strategies, platforms, or roles instead of recognizing themselves as the sourceWhat reinvention can look like for women living in small towns or tight-knit communities where expectations and roles feel especially definedHow moving from obligation to obsession can radically change the way women experience their work, bodies, and livesBe sure to hit subscribe so you never miss the latest episode!Connect with Sara Dann:Free Private Podcast: The Reinvention FilesReinvention Session: Book a 1:1 SessionInstagram: @thesaradannTikTok: @saradannConnect with Emily:Website:

With a background training at the BBC and working across major U.S. TV markets including Kansas City, Tampa, San Francisco, Tulsa, and Denver, Dominic brings more than two decades of media and research experience to the entrepreneurs he serves.      Make sure to download our free guide, 7 Questions Every Passive Investor Should Ask, here.     Key Takeaways Leverage credible media placements to build trust that compounds across AI search, Google, and investor due diligence  Clarify your narrative by defining who you are, what you do, and how you relate to your target audience  Lead with authenticity. Audiences quickly disconnect when messaging feels forced or over-rehearsed  Recognize that people just one or two steps ahead can offer more relatable value than distant "experts"  Focus on ROI-driven visibility, not vanity PR. Media should support capital raising, credibility, and measurable business growth      Topics Why Credible Media Matters More in the AI Era How AI increasingly pulls from trusted media sources instead of traditional search rankings  Why appearing on outlets like ABC, CBS, or Fox strengthens long-term digital authority  The Three Pillars of a Powerful Personal Brand Who you are (your authentic personal story)  What you do (your expertise and value proposition)  How you understand your audience's journey (investors, clients, stakeholders)  Why You Don't Need a Dramatic Backstory Shifting from "near-death experience" narratives to audience-centric storytelling  Emotional engagement through authenticity, preparation, and relatability  Overcoming Imposter Syndrome in Thought Leadership Why those one or two steps ahead often deliver the most actionable insight  How smaller media reps build confidence before major national appearances  Turning PR Into Measurable ROI Commissioning research to create newsworthy stories  Using media placements as credibility assets for investor conversations  Structuring PR efforts around business outcomes, not just visibility

The Wild & Waking Journey: Reclamation is Part 3 of a four-part solo series exploring the Wild & Waking Framework—a cyclical, soul-deep map for identity evolution, embodied leadership, and aligned living. In this episode, Emily guides the listener into The Reclamation, the phase where everything begins to click. After Unraveling what no longer fits and Remembering your deeper truth, Reclamation is where you consciously choose to live differently, and begin embodying who you are becoming in real time.The Reclamation is the sacred middle. It is the integration phase where clarity turns into courage and insight becomes action. Like earth, this stage is about rooting and rising. What once felt abstract now becomes tangible: boundaries spoken aloud, standards set, decisions made from self-trust rather than urgency or survival. Emily explores how this phase shows up across identity, work, relationships, spirituality, values, and leadership, and why Reclamation isn't about throwing everything out, but intentionally choosing what truly fits and letting the rest fall away.In this episode, Emily shares real-life examples of Reclamation in motion, from redefining success and worth, to releasing people-pleasing, to setting unapologetic standards around time, energy, and capacity. She unpacks why integration has a “lag period,” why embodiment takes practice, and how identity is one reclaimed, aligned choice at a time. This phase is not loud or flashy; it's subtle, steady, and often uncomfortable, but it's where self-trust is built and freedom begins to take shape from the inside out.You'll also hear how Reclamation invites you to expand your capacity to be seen, heard, and held, especially when your choices disrupt expectations or disappoint others. Emily reflects on the courage it takes to lead from vision rather than validation, to trust yourself before external proof appears, and to stop managing other people's perceptions at the cost of self-abandonment. This is where identity stops being conceptual and starts becoming embodied.To close, Emily offers grounding reflection questions to support your own Reclamation—inviting you to name the boundaries that would most protect your energy, the truths that need your voice, and the small aligned experiments that will stretch your capacity. If you're in the phase of choosing differently, rebuilding your identity, and learning to walk as the woman you've remembered, this episode will meet you exactly where you are. Part 4 of the series, The Rise, continues next.In this episode, I explore:What The Reclamation phase of the Wild & Waking Framework really is — the sacred middle where identity integration beginsHow Reclamation follows Unraveling and Remembering, and why this is the phase where everything finally starts to clickWhy Reclamation isn't about burning everything down — but consciously choosing what fits and releasing what doesn'tThe role of grief, rage, and nuance in rebuilding identity after deconstruction or awakeningWhy embodiment takes time — and how integration often has a “lag period” before it feels naturalHow to stop seeking validation and begin leading from self-trust, even when others don't understandTaking bold, aligned action from your new identity, not urgency or old survival patterns

You're not a brain on legs. And if upgrading your mindset or sharpening your thinking hasn't delivered the breakthrough you expected, it may be time to pay attention to the one stream of data AI can't access: your body's real-time signals.In this episode, Michael and Megan sit down with science journalist Caroline Williams to unpack interoception—your internal sensory system. It's the mechanism that helps you interpret what's happening inside your body and quietly shapes your response. Together, they explore why modern life makes it so easy to override those signals and introduce simple shifts that make a big difference.If you've felt stuck in your head, worn out from pushing through, or unsure how to care for yourself in a high-demand season, this conversation offers a different path—habits that are practical, sustainable, and refreshingly free.Memorable Quotes“Anything you do with your body is gonna affect the signals that are going from within your body to your brain. And that changes how your brain predicts what you are capable of and what's gonna happen next.”“We can either be attending to the outside world or the internal world. You can't be doing it both at the same time. So if you are constantly out there, you can't be in here. And so you need to be able to have the ability to tune in, deal and then tune back out again.”“[Our lives today] don't really match up with what we were designed for. So we have to then seek out the movement that we don't get in our everyday lives.”“The relationship between moving and brain health isn't about how much time you spend exercising, it's about how much time you spend sedentary. So it's about breaking up the sedentary time.”“One of these things that seem to be gathering momentum a little bit is the idea of movement snacks. So throughout the day, it's like the equivalent of food snacks. You can quite easily snack all day long without really noticing, and the calories add up, right? It's the same with exercise, with movement.”“One of the easiest parts of lifestyle to protect your brain health and your capacity long-term is physical activity.”“We must remember that making time to properly give ourselves a break is helping us to function better afterwards.”“The way that embodied cognition works is that when you are moving forward through space, it gives the illusion of, of moving forward and making progress sort of mentally as well as physically.”“Most of what we need to look after ourselves, we already have if we just make time for it.”Key TakeawaysYour Inner Sense Offers Real Data. Interoception is how your brain interprets signals from inside your body to shape emotion, energy, and decision-making.Modern Life Trains Us to Override the Body. When you're always “out there” (screens, noise, urgency), you lose access to what's happening “in here.”Your Brain was Built to Move While Thinking. Cognitive strength isn't separate from the body—it depends on the body being engaged.Break Up Sedentary Time. Frequent movement throughout the day matters more than one intense workout. Try “movement snacks” instead of an all-or-nothing exercise plan.Go For a Walk. Walking boosts creativity, lowers confrontation in hard conversations, and increases bonding through synchronization.Rest Is a Skill, Not a Luxury. Waking rest and deep breathing can restore the nervous system when sleep alone isn't enough.Wearables? Maybe. Is your favorite wearable helping you tune into your inner sense, or outsourcing it? If the (sometimes contradictory) data increases anxiety or confusion, it may be time to return to lived experience as the primary guide.ResourcesInner Sense by Caroline WilliamsMove! by Caroline Williamswww.carolinewilliams.netWatch on YouTube at:  https://youtu.be/L7ksuXGCp3QThis episode was produced by Sarah Vorhees Wendel of VW Sound

Gina (perinatal fitness trainer and birth doula) and Roxanne (certified nurse midwife) share the story of Roxanne's fourth “bonus baby,” Harvey, and the end of her pregnancy leading into a planned home birth. Roxanne describes weeks of waiting, prodromal labor, and trying to start labor on her due date (January 7) before Gina left for a pre-planned Disney Marathon trip; a cervical check showed she was 1 cm and “super thick,” and labor stalled.After midnight while Gina is away, Roxanne has a gush of fluid, then contractions quickly become consistent and stronger. She calls her midwife, her mom, and backup support, and uses comfort tools like a TENS unit, shower, a Pixie heating pad, and acupressure balls. She labors in the birth tub using different positions; the midwife tries calling Gina, but she doesn't answer.

Do you eat “perfectly” all day… then lose control at night? You're not lazy. You're not broken. And this is not a willpower problem. In this video, registered dietitian, lactation counselor, and mom of three Brooke Miller explains why nighttime cravings hit so hard for moms and exactly how to stop the cycle without restriction, guilt, or extreme dieting. If you find yourself: • Raiding the pantry after the kids go to bed • Thinking about food even when you're not hungry • Feeling out of control at night • Overeating on weekends after being “good” all week • Using food to cope with exhaustion or stress • Waking up guilty the next morning This episode will help you understand what's actually going on in your body and brain. You'll learn: • Why cravings are delayed until nighttime • How under-eating protein and fiber fuels night eating • The link between stress, cortisol, and cravings • How sleep affects hunger hormones (leptin & ghrelin) • Why emotional eating increases at night • What to eat earlier in the day to prevent night snacking • How to build a balanced evening snack • Blood sugar friendly snack ideas before bed • Healthier ways to decompress without using food • How to stop nighttime overeating without cutting foods out Brooke also shares realistic strategies for busy moms, including how to plan snacks, reduce stress eating, and feel more in control around food even in the most exhausting seasons of motherhood.

Did you know optimized sleep can transform your days by: ✅ Processing emotions & repairing your body overnight ✅ Waking up energized & clear-headed (no grogginess) ✅ Reducing stress, anxiety & evening wine cravings ✅ Supporting mood, hormones & long-term vitality In this episode, I sit down with Joseph Sheehey, former NASA engineer & founder of Cured Nutrition, to unpack cannabinoids for better rest. We clarify CBD, CBN, microdose THC, full-spectrum hemp — and why quality + herbal synergy make all the difference. Key highlights: Why sleep is essential for emotional processing, recovery & vibrant energy. CBD for calm, CBN for deep "weighted blanket" relaxation, microdose THC for gentle relief without impairment. How Cured's adaptogen-blended gummies outperform typical dispensary options (no paranoia, restored mornings). Joe's journey from depression & near-suicide to building a natural healing brand. The 2025 hemp regulation changes & what they mean for wellness-focused products. Ready for deeper, more restorative sleep?

With low commodity prices and constricted global markets, farmers are under a lot of stress. John Shutske, Professor and Extension Specialist: Safety Engineering & Agricultural Health, UW-Madison says it's important to remember your mental health resources. He tells Kiley Allan that high levels of stress are being driven by chaotic trade policies and market unknowns, compounded by a "work harder" agricultural stigma that often prevents people from seeking help. Waking up in the early morning with racing thoughts is the primary red flag that professional medical intervention is needed. He explains that stress-induced cortisol affects the brain's frontal lobe, leading to poor communication and childish behavior, which can result in a vicious cycle of bad business decisions.Wisconsin could hit the 60's today - not what you'd expect on February 16th. Stu Muck says this balmy, mild weather will be the story for most of the week. Farmers got an early Valentines present on Friday when Glenn "GT" Thompson announced the release of the 2026 Farm Bill. He's got it on a fast track, with mark up scheduled for February 23rd. Pam Jahnke visit with Perry Aasness, vice president of legislative affairs for Compeer Financial on what this version contains. Some of the highlights include "fixing" Proposition 12, addressing farm labor needs and programs supporting them, plus creating new partnerships that can help rural infrastructure including things like child care. Junie Kierce is the state champion of the 2nd annual WI Auctioneering challenge. She says she only knew about auctioneering after watching shows like "Storage Wars". Now, she's completed a mentorship with auctioneer, Jenny Gehl, and has become engaged in the profession. Wisconsin dairy farmers are bringing the farm to the classroom with the launch of the Care for the Land Escape Room, a digital, game-based learning experience for high school students. Dairy Farmers of Wisconsin Board member Gary Kohn joins Stephanie Hoff to discuss how this turnkey resource allows students to explore regional sustainability practices across four different Wisconsin farms. Launching Feb. 27, this interactive project uses modern technology to help the next generation connect with the science and heart behind local dairy production.

The Longevity Link podcast explores how optimizing the first hour after waking can dramatically influence your overall well-being and longevity. Host Chris Givant delves into the science behind the cortisol awakening response and the critical role of light exposure in setting your body's daily rhythm. By stepping outside to absorb morning light, engaging in simple movement, and hydrating, you can positively impact your mood, metabolism, and even disease risk. These morning habits align your circadian rhythms, enhance your body's ability to produce energy, and prepare you mentally and physically for the day.

For most of her life, she believed her sister was exaggerating. Growing up, her sister refused to use the upstairs bathroom alone and insisted there was a maid living in their grandmother's attic. It became a family joke—something to laugh off and dismiss.Years later, during a quiet overnight visit to her grandmother's Victorian home, everything changed. Waking in the middle of the night, she noticed movement near the attic door. What stepped into the room didn't rush or threaten. An old-fashioned maid, dressed in black with a white apron, calmly moved through the bedroom, dusting as if caught in another time altogether.The image didn't flicker or fade. It continued—until she forced herself to react.She had never believed the stories before. But once she saw the maid for herself, one question stayed with her: if the figure was never imagined… why had only one of them been able to see her for so long?#RealGhostStoriesOnline #HauntedVictorian #ResidualHaunting #Apparition #ParanormalEncounter #AtticGhost #HistoricalSpirit #HouseWithHistory #GhostlyFigure #UnexplainedLove real ghost stories?

In this episode of Guns Podcast U.S., host Brent Wheat and Roy Huntington tackle a topic that makes many uncomfortable: the necessity of carrying a firearm inside your own home. Triggered by the recent kidnapping of Nancy Guthrie (mother of Savannah Guthrie) in Tucson, the duo breaks down the myth of the home as a "King's X" or safe zone where vigilance can be relaxed. They discuss why reliance on a gun in the other room is a recipe for disaster and how crimes of opportunity often unfold faster than you can react. Roy shares his personal home defense setup, ranging from pocket carry strategies to the critical importance of "layers of security" like lighting, cameras, and reinforced locks. The conversation takes a deep dive into the modern threat of criminals posing as delivery drivers to gain entry and why opening the door to a stranger is a risk you shouldn't take. They also debate the mechanics of the bedside gun, analyzing the physiological reality of waking up groggy during a crisis. Finally, the pair offers actionable, low-cost tips to upgrade your home security immediately, including the "tactical bedside pouch" concept and the clever use of motion-sensor nightlights to detect intruders. Whether you live in a rural estate or a suburban neighborhood, this episode provides the practical intelligence needed to harden your home against threats Key Takeaways ·         The home is not a guaranteed 'safe zone'; criminals often strike when your guard is down. ·         If your gun is in another room, you likely won't be able to access it during an emergency. ·         Criminals frequently disguise themselves as delivery drivers to get homeowners to unlock the door. ·         Layered security (lighting, thorny bushes, cameras, dogs) is essential to deter break-ins. ·         Waking up to a threat requires time to orient; a bedside gun strategy must account for grogginess. ·         A 'bedside pouch' containing a light, knife and tourniquet is a practical addition to your nightstand gun. ·         Inexpensive motion-activated nightlights can serve as an early warning system inside the home. -- The Guns Podcast is presented by TangoDown.

This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, we might have cracked the code on toddler mornings… and it's not waking up earlier. We're talking 5am wakeups, third-trimester exhaustion, and the mindset shift that completely changed how we handle that first hour of the day. Instead of surviving it, we're cooking through it. Eggs, repetition, more eggs, toddler “responsibility,” and why letting Tate crack the eggs might actually be the best parenting hack we've stumbled into. From there, we rant about the glucose test (there HAS to be a better way), officially put the induction on the calendar, and share baby names we LOVE but WON'T be using (and why naming a second kid feels wildly harder?? Idk we just need to see the baby). We spiral (naturally) into the Valentine's Day debate: when someone says “no gifts”… do they actually mean it? Then get into our low-spend month competition with the neighbors (now accepting votes for who you think might win… spoiler alert: it doesn't seem like it's gonna be me), what I'm NOT buying this month but really want to, and then talk about a competition that ACTUALLY matters: the Winter Olympics. Harrison has a rant about why it's somehow harder than ever to actually watch the Olympics. We also unpack the viral Olympian cheating apology and whether that was romantic… or just ????? Then we hit the comment section: is going off-registry rude? are toddlers sitting on restaurant tables actually a crime? and are “self-driving” cars even self-driving? We wrap with something that genuinely reframed our week: toddlers are hardwired to hit, run, climb, and tantrum. It's NOT personal. It's developmental. And how you react might matter more than what they do. LOVE YOU GUYS. Thanks for listening

In this episode of the Every Church Flourishing Podcast by the Great Commission Association of California, hosts Pastor Christopher Cole and Dr. Chase Thompson interview the senior directors of the GCA, including Dr. Michael Stewart, Ms. Lannette Lozano and Dr. Se J. Won about topics ranging from prayer to mission fields, to prayer and great pastoral resources. Chase and Chris also taste test Lester's Fixins Ranch Dressing Soda and barely survive the experience.  In terms of what makes a church healthy and flourishing, there's no good answer to that question that doesn't begin with what Jesus said in John 15 about abiding in Him. - Chris Cole.  "I've been to churches where there is an inauthentic, almost Stepford Wives too bright, too shiny kind of vibe where people greet you like you're their long-lost brother that they haven't seen in years…I would much prefer, rather than bright hot, gleaming and polished smiles, I would much prefer something more genuine, warm real and authentic. The way to make that happen is not a program, but to preach the Gospels, preach the epistles, and cultivate a people who value biblical humility, biblical serving, biblical gentleness and biblical warmth.  There's no program or strategy that replaces the kind of outflow of the Fruit of the Spirit that should come from an authentic church with real greeters - that is massively important to reach your community. It may not grow you into a megachurch, but it will grow you into a place where people will come and feel welcomed and feel real warmth. "  "People don't want to be sold on Jesus. That's not the same as saying we don't want to invite them to a real-world encounter with the Good News of Jesus Christ and the hope that we have…When we center the gospel into the middle of authentic relationships, it should overflow into how we greet guests, do outreaches, and how we teach people to grow up into disciples of Jesus." Chris Cole Resources mentioned: Thom Rainer's Becoming a Welcoming Church.  Daniel Henderson's Old Paths, New Power: Awakening Your Church through Prayer and the Ministry of the Word. "There is a great need for spiritual renewal and awakening…for us to see something that can't be explained by numbers or logic, for us to see God move in such a way that we can only say that was God. If I'm not right with God, then what we do, doesn't really matter." Dr. Se J. Won.    Waking the Dead - John Eldredge (Dr. Stewart)  "Who we are matters more than what we do. We must have a good sense of our relationship with Christ, and who we are in ourselves and how we interact with other people." Chris Cole. Steve Cuss - Managing Leadership Anxiety, Yours and Theirs Peter Scazzero: The Emotionally Healthy Leader: How Transforming Your Inner Life Will Deeply Transform Your Church, Team, and the World. Dr. Se J. Won, "Many people go through unknown pains…unknown trials and challenges that they can't talk about or say outloud. Pain is not a curse."    Paul Brand: The Gift of Pain.  YouVersion Bible App on Android or iTunes.  Chris Cole, "As an ex-missionary, I have put a lot of weird things into my mouth, and this Lester's Ranch Dressing Soda might be moving close to my top ten of weird things to put in my mouth."  "As a Baptist pastor, you would not know what a Pina Colada tastes like!"   The UNsecret to baptizing more people. Hint: There's not a strategy, trick, or hack.

In this episode, we welcome author, counselor, and speaker John Eldredge to the show, who is best known for his book Wild at Heart. We have a powerful conversation about intimacy with God in a world full of chaos, suffering, and spiritual hunger. We reflect on what it means to reclaim a "re-enchanted" Christian worldview, how to pray against chaos, the profound gift women have to offer the world right now. We also talk practically about how to pray as a couple, ask John to lead us in a guided "Pause" prayer, and invite you into a moment of stillness, surrender, and loving awareness of Jesus dwelling within you.    Heather's One Thing - Midst from the Belonging Co.

I would love to hear from you! Send me a one way text and share how Recover Your Soul is supporting you or what you would like to hear more about.What if the real healing isn't found in forcing yourself to be stronger, but in deciding its time to awaken?I'm a couple days away from celebrating 8 years sober, and I'm sharing this as a Soul Journey story. When I finally decided to stop drinking, it was more than giving up alcohol. It was a decision to listen to my Higher Self and step fully into the life my soul was asking for.In this episode, I take you back to a trip to Southeast Asia that gave me just enough space to remember who I am beneath the chaos. I share the moment that surprised me most, the car ride home from the airport when the old stress returned fast and I could feel the pull to escape rise up in my body. That was the moment I knew I had to choose myself.Inspired by Eckhart Tolle's A New Earth, we explore the pain body as the unconscious part of us that clings to old wounds, story, and suffering, always searching for relief. This teaching aligns so beautifully with the Recover Your Soul process.

Everyone thinks discipline is about doing hard things.Waking up early. Grinding. Suffering. Pushing through. That's the art of discipline.But most people never master discipline because they skip the part that actually matters first…The science.In this episode of the Bedros Keuilian Show, I break down what's really happening in your brain when you feel resistance…That voice telling you to stay in bed.Skip the workout.Scroll instead of execute.Quit before you even start.That's called limbic friction and once you understand how it works, you can override it.Discipline isn't built through motivation.It's built through small wins.

I recently sat down with Emily Reuschel on her Wild and Waking podcast to talk about something I call the growth gap. What happens when one partner outpaces the other in personal development work? It was such a great conversation that I wanted to share it here with you too, because this is such a common pattern I see with my clients. Here's the thing: you've been reading all the books, listening to podcasts just like this one, doing all the inner work - because of course you have, and maybe your partner chooses to evolve differently than you. And that gap, that difference in growth pace and in growth focus, can feel incredibly isolating and frustrating. But what if I told you that the growth gap isn't the actual problem? What if the real issue is what you're doing with that gap? Emily and I dive deep into why personal growth can actually create more tension in your relationship at first, and then what to do about it. The counterintuitive truth about why your partner's lack of interest in therapy or coaching or a workshop might not be the deal breaker that you think it is. How to stop turning your relationship into a project you're trying to fix. The power of leading from your side of the street without carrying the whole emotional load. This is one of those episodes where you really want to grab your journal and maybe listen to it once and then go back and take notes because we're going to be practical, we're going to be strategic, and of course we're going to be soulful and have fun all at the same time.   ✨ Episode at a Glance  What the growth gap is and why it happens when one partner evolves and the other resists change The "Power of One" framework and how one person's transformation can shift the entire relationship Why the mindset of "I go first" changes everything The difference between your partner being scared vs. thinking growth is dumb (and why it matters) How to communicate your insights without triggering defensiveness Why asking for consent before sharing what you learned is essential The concept of do-overs and how one client's family transformed it into "rewinds"  How men and women process differently (and why understanding this helps) When to adjust your expectations vs. when it's time to call it Why quality matters more than length in relationships RESOURCES MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE: The Questions for Couples Journal Private Coaching with Maggie Free Workshop: The Growth Gap Marriage Mindset Makeover Emily Reuschel's website Listen to Ep 172 on Wild & Waking with Emily Reuschel and Maggie Follow Emily in Instagram @emilyreuschel

Waking up in the middle of the night to pee is not normal, even if it only happens once. This episode reveals why nighttime urination is an early metabolic warning sign, not a bladder or prostate issue. Ben explains how insulin resistance, blood sugar spikes, cortisol, and disrupted hormones interfere with deep sleep, fat burning, and brain detoxification. When sleep is interrupted, belly fat increases, hormones fall out of balance, and the brain's nighttime cleaning process shuts down. You'll learn the five main metabolic causes behind nighttime urination, including late-night eating, alcohol, electrolyte imbalance, high cortisol, and fluid shifts in the body. Ben also shares simple changes you can start tonight to sleep through the night again. This episode breaks down why most doctors miss this signal, how insulin resistance can exist years before diabetes, and how fixing metabolic signals can restore sleep, energy, fat loss, and long-term health. If you're waking up to pee, feeling wired but tired, or struggling with stubborn belly fat, this episode could change everything.
