HEAL with Kelly

What if the stress, pressure, and anxiety you feel aren’t really coming from what’s happening around you but from the unconscious beliefs you’re carrying about who you need to be?

In this deeply personal conversation, I sit down with my dear friend Peter Crone, known as “The Mind Architect,” to explore the hidden patterns that keep us stuck in survival mode  and what becomes possible when we begin to loosen our grip on them.

We dive into why so many of us live in a constant state of vigilance, the difference between reacting to life and truly being present with it, and how our resistance to fear, judgment, and uncertainty may be creating more suffering than the circumstances themselves. Peter also shares his vision for a new way of living — one rooted less in fear, limitation, and separation, and more in freedom, love, presence, and possibility.

And then the conversation takes an unexpected turn. I ask Peter to turn the mirror on me and reveal the patterns and blind spots he still sees operating beneath the surface. What unfolds becomes far more personal — and transformative — than I expected.

This episode is an invitation to question the stories you’ve been living from, soften the pressure to get everything “right,” and consider what life might feel like if you no longer had to prove, perfect, or protect who you are.

What happens when you feel completely healthy — only to discover that cancer has been quietly spreading throughout your body?

This episode marks the first of a new series on the HEAL with Kelly Podcast: HEALing Stories, where we’re creating more space to share real people, real healing journeys, and powerful stories of hope and resilience.

In this powerful HEALing Story, Stacy Solodkin shares her extraordinary journey from an unexpected Stage 3C ovarian cancer diagnosis to being eight years out with no evidence of disease.

Stacy opens up about the subtle symptom that sent her to the emergency room, the moment she was told cancer was “everywhere,” and why trusting her intuition and refusing to be sent home may have saved her life. She shares the importance of advocating for yourself, seeking second opinions, and finding a medical team that truly feels aligned with you.

Stacy also takes us inside the whole-person approach she embraced alongside conventional cancer treatment — from nutrition and acupuncture to meditation and other supportive therapies — and how the HEAL documentary helped expand her understanding of the role she could play in her own healing.

But Stacy’s story is about much more than cancer. Facing her mortality completely transformed the way she lives. She learned to stop waiting for “someday,” release fear and difficult emotions, receive support, and ask herself one powerful question: How will I feel about this decision on my last day?

Her story is a moving reminder to listen to your body, advocate for yourself, and not wait for a diagnosis to start living the life you truly want.

What if the moments when life seems to be falling apart are actually asking something deeper of us?

In this highly unique episode of HEAL with Kelly, I sit down with my dear friend, internationally recognized forensic psychic medium and spiritual teacher Carissa Schumacher, for a fascinating conversation about transformation, surrender, and the unseen forces that may be guiding us through some of life’s most challenging chapters.

Carissa shares the extraordinary story of how losing nearly everything ultimately led her down a spiritual path she never could have predicted — and eventually to a life-altering experience in which she unexpectedly began channeling the spirit of Yeshua, the true name of Jesus in the language of Aramaic. What followed was a deeply personal journey of learning to trust, integrate and share these channeled transmissions, which Carissa says are not about giving away our power to an outside authority, but about deepening our own relationship with the Divine and learning how to co-create with it.

We explore the teachings that emerged through this channeling and are now shared in her new book, The Alchemy Transmissions: A Pathway to Miracles – Yeshua's Wisdom, including why transformation often requires something old to fall away before something new can emerge.

From acceptance and surrender to the wisdom of the body, grief, our unique essence, and the power of awe and wonder, this conversation offers a beautiful perspective on navigating the uncomfortable space between who we were and who we’re becoming.

Whether you’re moving through a major transition or simply questioning what comes next, this episode may invite you to see life’s hardest chapters — and the possibility of miracles — a little differently.

What if a cancer diagnosis that feels like the end of your world could actually become the beginning of a completely new and empowering relationship with your body, your life, and yourself?

In this episode of HEAL with Kelly, I sit down with Elina Fuhrman — Cancer Healing Strategist, epigenetics expert, therapeutic chef, bestselling author of Soupelina’s Soup Cleanse, and founder of the Healing Journey Method and the Fuhrman Protocol. After discovering a lump just before her 40th birthday and receiving an aggressive breast cancer diagnosis, Elina found herself overwhelmed by fear, conflicting information, and treatment decisions that felt impossibly urgent. So she turned to the skill that had shaped her former career as an Emmy-nominated CNN journalist: she started asking questions. Relentlessly and fervently — like her life depended on it.

And those questions took her places she never expected.

We explore what it means to become an active participant in your health journey rather than simply handing over your power, why Elina believes there are important parts of the cancer conversation we’re still missing, and how her search for answers ultimately became about far more than treating a diagnosis.

We also talk about the connection between nourishment and healing, shedding old identities and emotional patterns, intuition, and what can happen when life forces us to finally listen to the parts of ourselves we may have ignored for years. Elina shares how her own search for a more nourishing way to eat ultimately led her into the kitchen, where her exploration of herbs, plants, and therapeutic soups became another unexpected chapter of her healing journey.

Elina’s story challenges some deeply held ideas about illness, healing, and even what it means to “fight” cancer. Whether you’re navigating a diagnosis, supporting someone you love, or simply want to feel more empowered in your own health, this conversation is an invitation to ask different questions — and perhaps see healing through an entirely new (and more hopeful) lens.

Could some of the symptoms you’ve learned to live with — brain fog, fatigue, headaches, hormonal changes, or simply not feeling like yourself — have less to do with what’s happening inside your body and more to do with the environment you’re living in?

In this episode of the HEAL with Kelly Podcast, I sit down with Ariana Thacker, chemical engineer and founder and CEO of MoldCo, whose own unexpected health crisis led her to investigate one of the most overlooked environmental factors affecting our health: mold exposure.

We talk about why mold-related illness can be so difficult to recognize, why conventional testing often completely misses it, and the surprising reason two people living in the exact same home can have completely different experiences. Ariana also challenges some of the biggest assumptions we have about where mold exists — including why newer homes aren’t necessarily in the clear.

We explore the emerging connections researchers are seeing between our environments and everything from brain and immune health to hormones, metabolism, and chronic illness. And Ariana shares what she wishes she had known before getting sick, how to begin thinking differently about the health of your home, and why mold may only be one piece of a much bigger environmental conversation.

If you’ve ever had symptoms you couldn’t quite explain, wondered whether your home could be affecting how you feel, or simply want to know what may be hiding in the places you spend the most time, this conversation will change the way you look at your environment — and your health.

What if Alzheimer’s doesn’t begin when you start forgetting names or struggling with memory but decades earlier, when subtle changes are happening in your metabolism, inflammation, and brain?

With Alzheimer’s in my own family, this conversation with Dr. David Perlmutter felt especially personal. Dr. Perlmutter is a board-certified neurologist, six-time New York Times bestselling author, and one of the leading voices challenging how we think about brain health and cognitive decline. His new book, Brain Defenders, explores emerging research around microglia — the immune cells of the brain — and why they may hold an important key to protecting our brains as we age.

We dive into why Dr. Perlmutter believes we need to start thinking about Alzheimer’s prevention in our 30s and 40s, the surprising connection between metabolic health and the brain, and how our everyday choices may influence whether our brain’s immune cells protect us or work against us.

We also get into the role of ultra-processed foods, blood sugar and insulin, the gut microbiome, environmental toxins, sleep, inflammation, mitochondria, vitamin D, and some of the biomarkers Dr. Perlmutter believes are worth knowing. And for women, we explore what happens to the brain during menopause, the latest conversation around estrogen and hormone replacement therapy, and why women face a greater risk of Alzheimer’s.

Dr. Perlmutter also shares fascinating new research that could change how we think about Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, MS, traumatic brain injury, and other neurological conditions — including why the future of brain health may look very different from the traditional “wait for symptoms, then treat” approach.

This episode left me feeling incredibly hopeful about how much influence we may actually have over the future of our brains. If you’ve ever worried about your memory, your family history, or simply want to stay sharp and resilient as you age, this is a conversation you don’t want to miss.

Do you struggle to get good sleep? The reason you’re exhausted, waking up at 3 a.m., or struggling to feel like yourself might surprise you. And likely has to do with sneaky and quietly disruptive sleep habits.

In this episode of the HEAL with Kelly Podcast, I sit down with world renowned sleep expert Dr. Michael Breus, PhD, a double board-certified Clinical Psychologist and Clinical Sleep Specialist known as The Sleep Doctor. After nearly 25 years in the field, he has a refreshingly simple message: we may be making wellness — and sleep — far more complicated than it needs to be.

There is a ton of information jam packed in this episode. We explore the fascinating science of our individual sleep chronotypes (I’m a Lion, what are you?!) and how understanding your body’s natural rhythm could change the way you approach not only sleep, but your entire day. Dr. Breus shares some surprisingly simple sleep tips that challenge many of the things we’ve been taught about getting a good night’s rest.

We tackle some of the biggest questions around sleep — from those frustrating middle-of-the-night wake-ups, to menopause, sleep apnea, melatonin, sleep trackers, caffeine, alcohol, and the everyday habits that may be affecting us more than we realize.

And we go beyond sleep itself, exploring the fascinating world of dreams, the connection between sleep and emotional healing, and why the timing of everything from your morning routine to intimacy may matter more than you think.

This conversation made me look at sleep in an entirely new way. Rather than chasing the perfect nighttime routine, what if better sleep actually begins with what you do the moment you wake up?

If you’re ready to understand your sleep differently and discover simple ways to feel more rested and energized, this episode is for you.

Grief has a script that we’ve been handed: five stages, one after another, until time supposedly heals you. But what if that was never the full story? There isn't one right way to grieve, and your path might look different.

In this episode, I sit down with Kate Doerge, certified grief coach, speaker, and author of Reimagining Grief, who has walked through more loss in one lifetime than most people can grasp. She lost her father unexpectedly to heart failure, then her mother to an accident, and then, most heart-breakingly, her 16-year-old daughter Penny. Out of this deep experience of loss, she's built a completely new way of moving through grief — one built on choice instead of waiting for it to pass. 

We talk about what it actually means to feel grief in your body, the signs from her loved ones Kate can't explain away, and the choice that turned her family's indescribable loss into a way of helping thousands of others heal through loss.

This conversation made me think differently about grief, healing, and what it really means to honor the people we love. Whether you're grieving today or simply want to better support someone who is, I hope this episode reminds you that healing doesn't mean leaving your loved one behind, it means learning to carry their love with you as you keep on living.

Could some of the biggest health challenges our kids are facing today — anxiety, emotional meltdowns, trouble focusing, allergies, even immune issues — are actually rooted in the gut?

In this episode, I sit down with Tina Anderson, founder of Just Thrive, for a conversation about why the microbiome may be one of the most overlooked foundations of lifelong health. After leaving successful careers in the pharmaceutical industry, Tina and her husband set out to understand the root causes of chronic disease, and what they discovered completely changed the direction of their lives. 

We explore the powerful connection between the gut and the brain, why so many children are struggling with gut imbalances today, and how everyday factors like antibiotics, ultra-processed foods, environmental toxins, and chronic stress may be impacting our health in ways most of us never realized. Tina also breaks down common myths about probiotics, explains what makes spore-based probiotics different, and offers a simple explanation of concepts like leaky gut and microbial diversity.

I found this conversation to be extremely empowering — especially as I think about how to best support my daughter’s health. It's not about striving for perfection, which can be flat out exhausting. It's about understanding how small, intentional choices can help create a stronger foundation for us and our children.

I sat down with a woman who walked away from one of the most public marriages in music history — and I wanted to know what it actually takes to choose yourself when the whole world admires your partner.

Deborah Santana spent over thirty years building a life, a business, and a family inside a marriage to one of the most famous musicians of our time, Carlos Santana. From the outside, it looked like the dream. But somewhere along the way, she started asking herself the question so many of us avoid: Am I actually living my purpose, or just managing everyone else's? 

Deborah is an author, activist, philanthropist, filmmaker, and longtime advocate for equity and empowerment. Her new memoir, Loving the Fire, traces a journey of choosing truth over appearances, freedom over fear, and her own voice over quiet acceptance of what no longer serves her.

In this conversation, we get into what it really takes to rebuild your identity after fame, motherhood, and decades of putting yourself last — the moment that finally gave her permission to leave, what she's learned about love the second time around, and why she now believes the world has lost something essential by turning away from matriarchal wisdom. We also talk about raising kids who feel truly seen and the intuitive flashes she trusts more than almost anything else in her life. 

Deborah is 75 and more radiant than ever. She is living proof that reinvention can happen at any age. If you feel like you’ve abandoned yourself or your dreams to keep others happy, this one is for you.
