If you’ve ever wondered what your soul is really here to do… this episode is for you.

Today on Enter the Portal, I sit down with Gene Keys guide and Human Design teacher Maria Henning to explore the power of self-awareness, spiritual evolution, and decoding your personal energetic blueprint. With her roots in science and a deep connection to mysticism, Maria brings a rare clarity to what it actually means to trust yourself, follow your path, and live from your highest frequency.

We explore the full arc of her story—from being raised Catholic in Venezuela, to rejecting spirituality completely, to eventually discovering Human Design, manifestation, and the Gene Keys. This conversation is expansive, honest, and full of those “oh wow, that’s me” kind of moments.

Whether you’re curious about what the Gene Keys are, how they compare to Human Design and astrology, or you just want to feel more connected to your purpose—you’ll find something here that resonates. We also bust some myths (like the one about “specific vs. nonspecific manifestors”), and talk about how these systems aren’t here to box you in, but to free you.

When life begins to feel too small, when the soul aches beneath the surface of success, when burnout becomes your baseline—what happens if you stop pushing and start listening?

In this deeply human, soul-stirring episode of Enter the Portal, Verena Borell joins us to share her story of unraveling and reweaving. A guide, evolutionary astrologer, and somatic practitioner-in-training, Verena opens up about the moment her seemingly perfect life—glamorous, global, and go-go-go—collapsed from the inside out. Beneath the surface of curated content and a thriving business, she was living on four hours of sleep, wired on caffeine, and totally disconnected from her truth.

What followed was not a quick fix or a bold leap—but a slow, sacred process of remembering. Through deep rest, ancestral reconnection, and the healing language of the body, Verena found her way back. And today, she holds space for others to do the same: to feel their way home, to reclaim the pace of nature, and to find liberation not in doing more—but in becoming more of who they truly are.

This conversation is a balm for anyone walking through burnout, questioning their path, or quietly whispering, “This isn’t mine anymore.” It’s a call to soften, to slow down, and to trust the spiral of becoming.

Astrologer and intuitive guide Shannon Earthtree returns to Enter the Portal to help us navigate the Virgo New Moon and the transformative eclipse season unfolding this October. With her grounded clarity and heart-centered wisdom, Shannon unpacks what’s really happening in the skies and how we can meet this moment with intention, softness, and trust.

This New Moon brings the humble energy of Virgo, reminding us that even the smallest acts of service—when rooted in love—have lasting power. Shannon invites us to explore how we can give without overextending, and how tending to our inner world creates ripples in the outer one. We talk about slowing down, caring more gently for ourselves and others, and allowing space for spiritual alignment.

As the partial solar eclipse approaches, we discuss why this isn't the time to launch or push forward, but to listen deeply, restore, and connect with our lineage. Shannon offers accessible, soulful practices for ancestor work—like setting a simple bowl of food on an altar and asking clearly for support. We also explore the cosmic significance of October 2nd, a powerful day for new beginnings and energetic clarity, and how to use this moment to step into aligned action.

Throughout the conversation, Shannon offers insight on how planetary movements are shaping our inner and outer worlds—from Mercury’s invitation to meditate, to Venus and Mars shifting our relationship with energy, boundaries, and connection. The conversation closes with a preview of the upcoming Pisces Full Moon, which brings a wave of quiet depth, healing, and gentle emotional release.

• 02:44 — The Virgo New Moon explained: service, self-care, and the fig tree metaphor
• 08:00 — What this partial solar eclipse means energetically and how to navigate it with care
• 10:51 — Ancestor connection rituals during eclipse season and why they matter now
• 17:19 — Why October 2nd is your cosmic green light for aligned action and forward movement
• 20:13 — Navigating planetary shifts: what Venus, Mercury, Mars, and the Sun are stirring up
• 30:23 — Jupiter’s brief return to Cancer and what this opening means for expansion and hope

From the moment we hit record, I knew this conversation with Serafina Capranos was going to take us somewhere deep. She’s a homeopath, herbalist, and trained priestess whose work weaves together the healing power of plants, deep intuition, and the unseen realms—and I’m so honored to share this conversation with you.

In this episode of Enter the Portal, Serafina opens up about the portal that changed everything: a spinal injury at age 16 that not only interrupted the life she thought she was meant to live, but also opened her to profound psychic experiences and a whole new path. From there, she followed intuitive threads that led her to train with a Toltec shaman in New Mexico, study homeopathy at the highest level, and eventually step into her priestesshood—holding space for others through ritual, service, and deep reverence for nature.

Together, we explore the lost roots of medicine, the historical erasure of women healers, and how reclaiming our own inner authority—our intuition—is the most important medicine we have. We talk about ritual as a way of life, what it means to live in service as a priestess, and how we can all begin to slow down, listen, and rejoin the rhythm of the Earth.

This episode is rich with wisdom and remembrance. Serafina’s presence is a portal in itself—gentle, powerful, and utterly transformative.

• 00:53 — Reclaiming our connection to the Earth: Serafina’s mission to awaken healing through plants, nature, and nervous system regulation
• 03:02 — A spinal injury as portal: pain, psychic awakening, and mystical training in the unseen realms
• 11:19 — Initiation in New Mexico: apprenticing with a Toltec shaman and giving death to the old self
• 17:54 — Herbalism vs. Homeopathy: understanding the distinct roots and magic of both healing traditions
• 22:12 — The alchemy of Samuel Hahnemann: how modern homeopathy emerged from mysticism and medicine
• 30:11 — Why ancient healing was suppressed: patriarchy, profit, and the politics of medicine
• 36:20 — Slowing down to listen: how intuition and embodiment guide true healing

There are conversations that don’t just live in your memory—they live in your body. This episode with breathwork facilitator, teacher, and space-holder Erin Telford is one of those. Originally aired early in the life of the show, it’s a conversation that helped define the essence of Enter the Portal. As we celebrate 50 episodes, we’re revisiting this luminous exchange, because it’s just as resonant now as it was then.

Erin’s journey is a masterclass in courageous unraveling. She opens up about the moment she realized she had built a life that looked good on paper—a long-term relationship, a Manhattan apartment, a steady career—but didn’t feel true. What came next was an unflinching journey inward: releasing what no longer fit, sitting with deep emotional truths, and beginning to rebuild from the inside out.

She shares how breathwork became her anchor, a tool for emotional release and spiritual reconnection. We explore how early religious conditioning impacted her self-expression, and how she eventually found her authentic voice beneath the noise. Erin’s story is a powerful reminder that letting go doesn’t mean failure—it means making space for alignment.

If you’re in a liminal space—where something is ending and something else is beginning—this episode will feel like a hand on your back, steady and kind.

What if your greatest guide wasn’t outside of you—but already within? In this soulful episode of Enter the Portal, intuitive guide and transformational coach Isik Tlabar shares the power of following your inner knowing—and what it really takes to live a life aligned with your truth.

Isik’s story is one of deep awakening. After years of chasing a more “acceptable” path through architecture and design, she found herself burned out, lost, and disconnected from her purpose. That’s when she began to tune in to the quiet voice of her intuition—and everything changed. From leading women’s circles to teaching breathwork and guiding intuitive coaching sessions, Isik has since devoted her life to helping others remember who they are at a soul level.

Together, we explore how to distinguish between the voice of fear and the voice of truth, how intuition actually speaks to us, and what keeps so many people stuck on the edge of change. Isik offers practical tools to strengthen your intuitive muscle, clear space for inner wisdom, and take empowered steps toward your purpose—even when your ego tries to hold you back.

If you’ve ever felt torn between what’s expected and what your heart truly wants… this episode will feel like a homecoming. It’s a gentle, grounded invitation to trust yourself more deeply and begin living in alignment with your soul.

In this episode of Enter the Portal, astrologer and cosmic translator Natalie Holbrook returns to help us navigate one of the most rare and potent astrological windows of the year: a double Virgo New Moon cycle. That’s right—two New Moons in Virgo, bookending a deeply transformational season of refinement, alignment, and soul editing.

Virgo is often misunderstood as the perfectionist of the zodiac—but in this conversation, Natalie reveals its deeper role as the sacred editor, the intuitive organizer, and the meticulous alchemist. Together, she and Jenner explore what it means to step into a true soul edit—clearing clutter from your physical spaces, your mental loops, your rituals, and even your identity. This isn’t just about minimalism—it’s about purposeful, conscious living aligned with your next evolution.

You’ll also hear how Uranus brings unexpected shifts, why Venus in Leo invites beauty and joy into the clean-up process, and how to balance Virgo’s discernment with Pisces’ dreamlike flow as we move into eclipse season. The conversation touches on everything from detoxing your fascia and rethinking your morning routine, to aging in a filtered world and letting go of outdated perfection standards.

Whether you're deep in your spiritual practice or just beginning to align with lunar wisdom, this episode is a grounded, cosmic guide to editing your life from the inside out.Episode Breakdown with Timestamps

Karen Curry Parker is back on Enter the Portal—and this time, she’s opening up a whole new dimension of wellness. In this heartfelt and expansive conversation, Jen and Karen dive into her newest book, The Quantum Human Design™ Guide to Navigating the Body, Mind & Spirit, and explore why this project feels so radically alive for both of them right now.

With 24 books behind her, Karen has helped people connect to their purpose, relationships, and energy through Human Design. But this book goes somewhere she’s never gone before—into the deeper terrain of integrative wellness, where wellbeing isn’t just about treating symptoms, but about tracing the stories and energetic patterns behind them. From midwifery to coaching, Human Design to wellbeing, Karen shares the life-long journey that led her to this work—and how the body often speaks last when everything else in our system has gone unheard.

What unfolds is a powerful look at quantum wellness—a multidimensional approach to wellbeing that honors not just the body, but our connection to source, money, creativity, relationships, and story. This isn’t about a diagnosis. It’s about reclaiming your vitality by listening to the intelligence already within you.

Karen explains how physical symptoms like sciatica, burnout, or chronic fatigue are often signs of deeper misalignment in our energy systems. We explore the Human Design chart as a tool not just for insight—but for integration, clarity, and embodied wellness. Whether you're navigating emotional overwhelm, trust issues with divine timing, or the push-pull between who you are and who the world told you to be, this conversation offers a radically compassionate invitation to begin again—on your own terms.

In this episode of Enter the Portal, I sit down with the radiant and deeply grounded Hayley Curtis—teacher, guide, and master of human archetype through the sacred lens of the Gene Keys. This conversation is one long exhale… and also a holy activation.

Hayley shares her own portal moment, a rock-bottom unraveling that became the start of her healing and devotion to this work. We talk about what the Gene Keys really are (hint: it’s not something to “study” so much as contemplate), how to actually begin working with your profile, and why this system is such a profound map for unlocking your purpose, prosperity, and inner peace.

You’ll learn how each Gene Key contains three expressions—shadow, gift, and siddhi—and why your deepest challenges are never a mistake. Hayley walks us through how these archetypes live in our DNA and how we can use this work to stop bypassing, stop rushing, and start reclaiming the wisdom in our wounds.

This isn’t just information—it’s transformation. And if you’ve been circling the Gene Keys and waiting for the nudge to go deeper... this is your sign.

• [03:19] — Her personal healing journey through chronic illness
• [08:04] — What the Gene Keys are and how they work
