Have you ever felt like you couldn’t be yourself for fear of being unaccepted or misjudged?  Our guest in this powerful episode, Josh Hayward, Founder of WOLVZ, brings to life the concept of how we  “mask” ourselves as a result of the masculine structures that dominate our societal norms + narrative. In this conversation, we will unmask how we can shift this narrative to bring the dominant masculine into balance with the energies of the free-flowing feminine. This is not a gender conversation, but an embodiment of unearthing the generational trauma which exists in every aspect of our lives from the “toxic masculine”.

WOLVZ Mission:

We must collectively accept the fact that “toxic masculinity” exists. We know that to do this, WOLVZ must address more than just the issue of mental health. Fear is at the root of a substantial problem in the lives of men. We believe that by building the whole man - mind, body, soul, spirit, passion and purpose - we can live from a place of love. This will change the narrative that exists in this society. For this generation and the next.

Curious about the healing power of plants + botanicals? In this episode, I am honored to share a dear friend of mine and botanical beauty with you, Kimberly Kling. Kimberly and I connected years ago at a retreat out in the Redwoods of California, and our connection has only continued to blossom in her garden of "Joyful Roots"! 

Kimberly Kling is the creatrix behind Joyful Roots, a botanical wellness brand located in Southern Arizona. Her greatest passion is to help women cultivate their inner joy by amplifying their self-care rituals and growing deeper roots in our Mother Earth. Kimberly is committed to offering small batch, 100% natural body-care and soul-care products that nourish our bodies, respect the Earth, and empower us into greater well-being. 

In reciprocity to Mama Earth, every purchase over $10 from Joyful Roots webshop plants a tree!

Kimberly has been working with plants since as early as she can remember – making “magical plant stew” in her childhood backyard and becoming friends with the Rushes and Paper Birch in the Michigan forests. Looking back, she can see that her decision to get a Master’s in Landscape Architecture, was an attempt to reconcile her love for art, plants, and her background in civil engineering. 

After moving to rural Arizona, giving birth to and mothering her son, and experiencing a health crisis, she was divinely guided to herbalism and rekindled a deep and enthralling passion for plants. Through the plants, she became empowered with her own health and wellness and is called to share this empowerment with others. 

In her words, “The plants pulled me in to their magic and I am forever theirs…”

One connection, and one word can truly change your life. This episode is a manifestation of life's divine encounters, and how two souls can align energies with completely different life stories which continue to cross, as my guest today, Louise Valentine, and I have experienced.

This reminds me of the beautiful Steve Jobs quote, "You can't connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future. You have to trust in something - your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever. This approach has never let me down, and it has made all the difference in my life."

I trust that our dots have connected, and excited to unravel the synergy of Louise Valentine and I to dedicating our lives to the spirit of a vibrant life.

If you've been feeling the fire within, perhaps it's time to practice living life out loud with us today. Let this conversation be a little loving nudge!

Who is Louise Valentine?

Louise Valentine is an award-winning wellness expert, competitive athlete, and fierce military spouse.  Regardless of where the Army sends her, Louise's career is dedicated to empowering others to live a vibrant, healthy life.  She has worked with professional athletes, researchers, and senior leaders throughout the U.S. and currently holds a healthcare leadership position with Vheda Health.

Happiness and joy are often considered one and the same, but exist as two very different states of being. Happiness is a result of achievement from outside forces while joy is an inner practice. Joy can be experienced even in challenging moments, when one practices and knows how to cultivate it daily. 

Come take a "joy” ride with me and Victorien in this episode to uncover how to experience joy on the daily, and how discipline is simply self love.

As Victorien says so beautifully, "It is loving ourselves everyday. It is not a 21-day practice, it's about all of your life." 

In our conversation, learn more from Victorien about how music became a moving meditation from world-class DJ to flute meditations, and his energies toward social + environmental actions all with a mission to amplify collective JOY.

*Make sure you stay tuned till the end of the episode to join us to experience Victorien’s flute meditation LIVE on the show! 

Meet Victorien: 

Born and raised in northern France, I grew up with music at the center of my life. Outside of school, I spent my days mixing music, making music and playing in nature. At age 19, with a dear friend, we decided to tag team and create the project FDVM which lead us on epic 12 years adventures around the world. After releasing some successful songs, gathering millions of plays and playing shows worldwide, I recently felt called to a transition, to follow my heart, and keep on amplifying joy in new ways. While I still DJ,  as I discovered mindfulness, meditation and the flutes, I now stepped onto new offerings with only one desire at heart, invite everyone to walk the path joy.

I also focus my energy towards social and environmental actions, with the co-creation of LitterRally and Bali Live, in the humble effort to invite ecological empathy and support those in needs.

My guest, Radha Agrawal, is a community force. She is the co-Founder, CEO and Chief Community Architect of Daybreaker, the early morning dance and wellness movement in 28 cities and five continents with a community of almost half a million people around the globe. Her raison d'être is collective joy. 

But the experience of even having this conversation with her has been pure serendipity leading all the way back to the 2020 WW Vision Tour with Oprah, never even knowing that months later when the pandemic struck our reality, Radha’s ingenious community of DAYBREAKER would be my healing elixir every Saturday morning with virtual dance party themes that evoke a sense of curiosity + childlike joy.  And at a more intimate level, evoke deep connection to a community of like souls.  A community where everyone feels they belong.

Every week was an escape to a reality of pure JOY. 

She and her team recently launched a science backed platform DOSE by Daybreaker, a first of its kind membership and community to practice JOY with the goal of making “practicing joy” as ubiquitous as practicing yoga and meditation.

She is a successful entrepreneur (Co-Founder THINX), author, speaker, DJ, inventor, and investor in mostly female owned businesses.

Her best selling book BELONG answers the questions, “how the heck do I find my people” and “How do I create large and meaningful communities in the real world?”. She was named by MTV as “one of the 8 women who will change the world.”

Radha lives between Brooklyn, New York and her farm in Rhinebeck along with her love Eli, her daughter Soleï and their dog Nanü. She is currently teaching joy practices on DOSE every week, developing a Functional Happiness Teacher training program and writing her next book, “The Joy Ride”.

What is not expressed, becomes depressed. And it is in this suffering in silence that can make you feel alone, isolated, and questioning the very existence of life. 

But today, come ALIVE with me and Amelia Zachry through her chaotic, yet magical story of how she moved through the feelings of shame and being ostracized to normalizing mental illness and dismantling rape culture through her openness and vulnerability of heart in sharing her story through her own suffering in silence. 

As she so beautifully taught me, there are no wrong cards. 

Uncover more of what this means in our intimate conversation together. “There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you”– Maya Angelou

About Amelia: 

Amelia Zachry is a blogger and an author of a memoir in the making, a raw and honest scribing of a journey from rape and bipolar disorder to the present chaotic and magical life she leads. Amelia is a big believer in normalizing mental illness and dismantling rape culture. Born and raised in Malaysia, she now resides in Lexington, Kentucky.

In the post-pandemic world of global isolation, our entire reality was shifted to the online space. How do you create a feeling of community + inclusiveness in the online space, while feeling completely held by feminine energy? Today’s episode will light the way for you, as I interview Amy Stout + Liz Cirelli, the founders of Hearts Rising. 

Both Amy and Liz offer a dynamic in their coaching that is unseen in the online space, where spiritual awakening meets a therapeutic journey where one can truly see sides of themselves that have been dormant, and through this awakening, true transformation blossoms.

I had no idea what to expect when I joined, and from my first session was immediately transported to a sacred space that felt so connected, so inclusive, so loving, and so safe to speak the words that have stayed stuck within me for fear of being judged, shamed, or seen differently.

Both Amy and Liz offer a dynamic in their coaching that is unseen in the online space, where spiritual awakening meets a therapeutic journey where one can truly see sides of themselves that have been dormant, and through this awakening, true transformation blossoms.

It's the little things in life that make a house a home. This episode is your open invitation to gather and feel the goodness of home, not just as a physical space but an emotional connection to your environment where the sense of "home" comes alive.

In this episode, I had the honor to connect around The Good Table with Jenny + Dave Marrs of HGTV's Fixer to Fabulous, where I have come to know and love their work. But what's so beautiful about the Marrs family is their devout commitment to family, community, faith, authenticity, and giving back both in their hometown of Bentonville + with children in Zimbabwe. 

Come gather around the Good Table with us, and learn how Jenny + Dave balance their marriage of 16 years and raising 5 children with being stars of Fixer to Fabulous on HGTV, running the Berry Farm, Marrs Developing company while never losing sight of the important things in life. 

"Life should be framed with sweet, content moments of lingering at the table." - The Good Table

About Jenny + Dave Marrs:

Jenny + Dave Marrs live in a rescued and restored farmhouse where they have cobbled together a farm life full to the brim with five young kiddos, mud puddles galore and too-many-to-count farm animals.

Jenny is a wife and mama who loves all things creative. She is a designer, writer and passionate advocate for community transformation, family preservation and orphan care around the globe. 

Dave works as a builder, while Jenny supports the design side of their business, Goodtable. Most recently, they work with HGTV to develop Fixer to Fabulous, a home renovation show focused on restoring historic homes in our beautiful Northwest Arkansas area.

Their primary focus after family is on building community in our own backyard and around the world. Their passion for furthering locally-active, globally-focused causes led to the founding of The Berry Farm.
At its simplest, the u-pick farm and its event barn allows local families to enjoy the experience of filling their own buckets with fresh, local berries and holding events in the gorgeous newly-renovated event venue. But the real mission of The Berry Farm is a domino effect rippling from Northwest Arkansas to Zimbabwe, where profits support vocational training, farming skills and food for orphaned children.

In this episode, I had the devout honor and privilege to soak in the knowledge of one of the most profound and consciously awake humans in our lifetime, Rainier Wylde. The craziest part about our divine encounter is that I heard him only weeks ago on LeAnn Rimes podcast, Wholly Human, and now, you have the honor of hearing him on our show.

The entire experience has been surreal, and I hope you enjoy this intimate conversation with Rainier on ruthless authenticity, accepting our masculine + feminine archetypes as a way to fully awaken + allow the ark to transpire, and translating "toxicity" with a refreshing and deeply profound perspective.

About Rainier:
An experienced teacher, writer, and speaker. Rainier has embraced life for all that it is. He has celebrated its highs and learned from its lows. He has managed a Fortune 500 company and built businesses, he has also elegantly blown them up, burned them down, and started over from scratch. Through the various positions he has held, he has discovered that life must be claimed to hold any worth. His work is to inspire others to live, fully and deeply, in the here and now.
