Fire and Soul

Ever felt you're "too sensitive," "too intense," or can't squeeze yourself into the world's idea of normal?

In this powerful episode, I sit down with Dr. Dain Heer, internationally renowned co-creator of Access Consciousness, to explore how your sensitivity is actually your greatest strength and doorway to miraculous living.

Drawing parallels to my own work in somatic healing and embodied leadership, this conversation explores the possibility of healing trauma without having to relive the pain... an approach that may challenge traditional beliefs, but opens a doorway to curiosity and new perspectives. Dr. Dain shares how practical tools, presence, and energy can support spontaneous transformation without necessarily revisiting every wound.

Discover why sensitive souls ("humanoids") are wired differently, and how to embrace your unique energetic blueprint to become the embodied leader you were born to be. Your sensitivity is your superpower. It's time to stop shrinking and start embracing the miracle of who you truly are.

What if the thing you do 20,000 times a day without thinking is the key to healing chronic illness, integrating trauma, and unlocking divine connection? In this revelatory episode, we explore true healing through the body, not the mind.

I drop in with somatic breathwork facilitator Jake Whan to discover why your nervous system, not your thoughts, determines your capacity to lead, serve, love, and prosper in these times of rapid evolution.

Jake vulnerably shares his awakening journey from contemplating suicide at 24 while battling autoimmune disease, to now guiding over half a million people through breathwork and nervous system healing. His story is a profound reminder that your nervous system is your spiritual operating system.

If you've felt stuck in old patterns despite doing "all the work," burning out from hustle culture, or sensing something blocking your next level of leadership, this conversation will land.

In This Episode:

• Jake's rock-bottom moment and spiritual resurrection
• Why most spiritual leaders are unintentionally disembodied
• Sacred science of breath: natural DMT and pineal gland activation
• Breathwork modalities: somatic vs. holotropic explained
• 4D vs. 5D consciousness and the Matrix trap
• Nervous system coherence as your greatest leadership tool
• Redefining wealth through embodied alignment
• Moving through collective healing with grace
• Guided 2-minute somatic breathwork practice

Key Truths: Your emotions are the gateway—the nervous system is where awakening lands. We're not just healing ourselves; we're clearing collective karma. The breath hold is your bridge to Source consciousness. True safety begins within.

Truth: Healing doesn't happen in the mind. It happens in the body. The breath is your way in.

What if sadness, anger, and fear weren’t problems, but sacred signals designed to lead you home?

In this powerful and deeply resonant episode, I’m joined once again by beloved spiritual teacher and author Aaron Abke to explore the core teachings from his brand-new book, The Three Beliefs of Ego: A Surfer’s Guide to Freedom.

Aaron shares the raw and vulnerable backstory of his own spiritual awakening... and how a two-week taste of "heaven" led to a crash back into ego and suffering that changed everything.

From that journey came the discovery of the ego’s three core beliefs: lack, attachment, and control. And the realization that our emotional pain is actually a divine guidance system pointing to what’s out of alignment.

Together, we explore how to alchemize suffering into spiritual clarity, and why the ego—far from being the enemy—is actually the teacher that helps us evolve.

We explore:

• The three beliefs of ego and the emotional patterns they create

• Why sadness, anger, and fear are roadmaps—not roadblocks

• How awakening often intensifies suffering (at first)

• The ego as a divine tool, not a flaw to fix

• Emotional alchemy, spiritual embodiment, and the path to true freedom

This is a deep and tender conversation on reclaiming your sovereignty, meeting your shadow with love, and remembering the truth of who you are.

In this powerful episode, I’m joined by Ashley Turner, LMFT — licensed psychotherapist, psychedelic therapist, and founder of the Metamorphosis Mentorship — to explore menopause as a sacred, psycho-spiritual initiation.

Ashley shares her own journey through postpartum, perimenopause, and a Dark Night of the Soul — a season of identity loss, spiritual reckoning, and ultimately, radical rebirth.

Together, we go beyond the physical symptoms to name the deeper truth of this time: a dismantling of old identities, a reclamation of feminine power, and an awakening into embodied leadership.

Inside this conversation:

• The truth about perimenopause, menopause + postmenopause
• Why hormone therapy (HRT) saved Ashley’s life — and what she wants all women to know
• Womb grief, hysterectomy trauma + healing our second chakra
• Reclaiming feminine identity after the loss of cycle, libido, or societal “value”
• Why unhealed wounds from our Maiden years resurface at midlife — and how to meet them with grace
• How psychedelic therapy is transforming personal healing and intimate partnership
• The rise of the wise woman — and why it matters now more than ever

This is for the woman in the threshold. The one who knows something deeper is calling.

After seven years and nearly 300 episodes, I’m honoring the sacred evolution of Fire and Soul — and the soul-led journey that’s shaped not just me, but this entire community.

This podcast wouldn’t exist without you — the listener who keeps showing up with an open heart and a courageous spirit. Whether you’ve been here since the beginning or just found your way in, thank you. Fire and Soul is as much yours as it is mine.

In this solo episode (the first in a new series I’m calling Embodied Ascension), I reflect on the lessons, initiations, and awakenings that have led me to this moment — including my current training to become a trauma-informed practitioner.

This isn’t about adding another title. It’s about expanding my capacity to serve, lead, and love in these wild and holy times.

Because the deeper we heal, the more we can hold the frequency of our highest vision. This is the path from karma to dharma — from survival to embodied purpose.

✨ Inside this episode:

• Behind the scenes of Fire and Soul’s 7-year evolution
• Why somatic and trauma-informed wisdom is essential now
• How unresolved energy shapes our perception and leadership
• A simple somatic check-in to ground into your body
• What’s ahead in the Embodied Ascension solo series

If you’re walking your own path of remembrance and rising — this space is a sanctuary for your becoming. I’m so glad we’re here together.

This one’s a wowzer, my loves.

If you’ve been navigating relationship initiations, feeling the intensity of the times, or wondering how to prepare for what’s unfolding on our planet — this conversation is for you.

I had the absolute honor of sitting down with the extraordinary Anne Tucker — trance channel for the Angel Collective, Mother of Creation, and Yeshua. She’s also the bestselling author of What Comes Next, creator of Business Energetics and the Soul Convergence, and a gifted guide for this moment of massive planetary transformation.

Together, we explore what it truly means to walk the path of embodied awakening — with all its beauty, uncertainty, and power. This conversation is both a revelation and a remembrance.

In this episode, we dive into:

• Anne’s journey from corporate executive to divine channel
• The many ways spiritual gifts express — and how to recognize your own
• What it actually feels like to channel higher beings
• Healing as integration, not fixing
• The shadow of spiritual bypassing (and how to spot it)
• Relationship karma + sacred wounding as a gateway to self-honoring
• The solar flash, three days of darkness, and the split in consciousness
• Why connection is the true source of light — and the medicine we need most

Anne also channels a powerful message from the Angel Collective that shook me to my core — and offers a soul activation meant for all of us: “You are starlight. A fragment of solar consciousness. And you shall reunify into wholeness — while embodied.”

What if one question could change everything?

That’s exactly what happened when my guest, Melanie Spring, asked me, “How deep of a healing do you want?” It cracked something open in me — and became a portal into deeper truth, self-trust, and what she calls tender surrender.

In this heartfelt and refreshingly honest conversation, I sit down with international keynote speaker and Brilliant Rebellion founder Melanie Spring to explore the wild, beautiful, and often messy path of healing, embodiment, and conscious leadership. She brings so much wisdom, lightness, and presence to this dialogue — and it’s one I know many of you will feel right in your heart.

We cover everything from sacred medicine journeys to the real work of loving our bodies, letting go of perfectionism, and navigating big shifts in partnership and identity. Whether you're in the thick of a transformation or simply learning to soften into more of who you really are — this episode is for you.

In this episode, we explore:

• How sacred medicine amplifies (but never replaces) your inner work
• Body image, confidence, and the journey back into your own skin
• Letting go of perfectionism and reclaiming your feminine power
• Navigating massive change in marriage and identity
• Why healing is always a choice — and how to meet it with courage and grace

If you’re walking through change right now, I hope this conversation brings you resonance, relief, and the reminder that you're not alone.

What happens when a fiddle-playing, off-grid, freedom-loving spiritual anarchist invites you to her homestead—and hands you a loaded gun? You meet yourself in a way you never have before. And if you’re lucky, you come back changed.

In this electric episode of Fire & Soul, Michelle sits down with her soul sister and fellow sovereign rebel, Betsy Dewey—a philosopher, musician, homesteader, home-birther, and unapologetic truth-teller. They dive deep into a life well lived, from breaking free of mainstream narratives to creating a family rooted in love, liberty, and real-life connection.

What unfolds is a wildly refreshing conversation about reclaiming your power, questioning your assumptions, and choosing to live—truly live—in a world that often wants you numb.

In This Episode, We Explore:

How Betsy and her husband designed a sovereign life—on purpose

What home birth and homeschooling taught her about freedom

Why fear is the biggest trap of all (and how to break it)

Her unique approach to self-sovereignty: “Be the captain of your own damn boat”

The power of forgiveness, embodiment, and clean-hearted living

And what it really means to take life by the horns 🌱

Whether you’re brand new to the path of awakening or decades deep into your sovereignty journey, this one will light a fire in your soul—and make you want to ditch the screen, pick up a fiddle, and dance barefoot in the dirt.

Could your deepest power be hidden in the parts of you you’ve been taught to ignore?

In today’s powerful conversation, Michelle welcomes Dr. Alanna Kaivalya — bestselling author, mythologist, spiritual educator, and host of The Satisfied Woman Podcast. Together, they dive deep into what it truly means to live as a satisfied, embodied woman in a world that has long asked women to strive, achieve, and hustle their way to success.

Alanna shares her extraordinary journey — from building a thriving yoga empire, to realizing that outward success left her feeling anxious, misaligned, and creatively stifled. In a courageous act of self-liberation, she burned it all down: leaving her marriage, selling her business, and stepping fully into her soul's true calling.

In this episode, we explore:

• Why satisfaction — not success — is the true feminine compass
• The four essential keys every woman needs to unlock a truly fulfilled life
• How embracing your intuition and emotions can transform your reality
• The healing power of healthy masculine support (both internally and relationally)
• How to listen to your soul's deep wisdom — and act on it
• Why the path of awakening often requires "burning it all down" (and how this is sacred and necessary)
• How the feminine path is nonlinear, creative, relational — and deeply powerful

Whether you’re navigating your own evolution, contemplating a courageous pivot, or yearning to feel more alive and at home in yourself — this conversation is a lighthouse.

Christine shares why older souls can feel like “Swiss cheese” (yes, you read that right), how to cleanse your energy, and how to trust that inner knowing—especially when life gets loud. We also explore the thinning veil, what it means to live from your highest self, and how to discern real spiritual truth from ego masquerading as guidance.

You’ll hear personal stories, practical tools, and unforgettable soul medicine.
