  • From Limitation to Possibility: Change the Beliefs Running Your Life with Jim Curtis

    So much of our lives is spent trying to fix ourselves, overcome our limitations, or become the person we think we're supposed to be. But the greatest shift often happens when we simply stop resisting where we are and open ourselves to what's possible.

    In this episode of the HEAL with Kelly Podcast, I sit down with transformational coach and bestselling author Jim Curtis, whose signature Hypno-Coaching℠ approach blends subconscious reprogramming and spirituality to help make the impossible feel probable. 

    I absolutely loved this conversation! Jim and I are on the same page when it comes to healing. At the end of the day, it doesn't need to be complicated. I appreciate his accessible message: you can’t fail at healing.

    Shaped by his own journey through chronic health challenges and disability, Jim brings a compassionate and refreshing perspective to personal transformation. We explore how childhood programming and subconscious beliefs quietly shape our lives, why awareness alone isn't always enough to create lasting change, and how radical acceptance can become a doorway to freedom.

    We also dive into forgiveness, self-love, manifestation, and the ways our need for control, approval, and certainty can limit what we believe is possible. Jim challenges the pressure to become completely "healed" and offers a different way of approaching life's struggles, setbacks, and uncertainties — with greater trust, curiosity, and compassion.

    When I read Jim's new book, The Book of Possibility, I felt like kindred spirits. We draw inspiration from so many of the same teachers and philosophies, and I love how he distills profound wisdom into a practical guide for creating the life you truly desire.

    This heartfelt conversation is an invitation to release the stories that keep you stuck, reconnect with what you really want, and stop waiting for some future destination to experience the beauty of your life. Because sometimes the greatest possibility lies in learning to fall in love with the journey itself.

  • The Hidden Connection Between Trauma, Nervous System & Autoimmune Disease with Dr. Amy Myers

    Here’s the real question: What is it that’s keeping your body in a constant state of stress?


    In this episode of the HEAL with Kelly Podcast, I sit down with Dr. Amy Myers, New York Times bestselling author and functional medicine physician, as she prepares to release the newly revised edition of her groundbreaking book, The Autoimmune Solution. More than a decade after its original release, her wisdom for treating autoimmune conditions is more relevant than ever. Amy shares how her understanding of autoimmunity has evolved through years of treating thousands of patients and navigating her own extraordinary healing journey.


    From Graves’ disease and repeated toxic mold exposure to PTSD, profound loss, and frightening cancer scares, Amy opens up about the experiences that challenged everything she thought she knew about healing. We explore the potential drivers of autoimmune disease, including gut health, diet, toxins, and infections, alongside the often-overlooked roles of chronic stress, unresolved trauma, and the nervous system.


    But our discussion goes beyond the physical body. Amy shares the unexpected spiritual experiences that transformed her relationship with fear, safety, and surrender. We also explore leaky gut, gluten and autoimmunity, emerging approaches to health screening, and why two people with the same diagnosis may need entirely different paths toward healing.


    Ultimately, her story reminds us that healing is never one-size-fits-all. It invites us to look beyond symptoms, trust our intuition, seek out practitioners who support us, and remain open to the many dimensions of healing.

  • You Can’t Get It Wrong: Letting Go of Fear, Perfectionism & the Need for Control with Peter Crone (Part 2)

    What happens when you stop talking about transformation — and actually experience it in real time? Hint: you feel a new type of freedom reverberate through your whole being — or at least that was true for me.

    In Part Two of my conversation with my dear friend Peter Crone, known as “The Mind Architect,” things get MUCH more personal. I ask Peter to turn the mirror on me and share what patterns, limitations, and blind spots he still sees in me that are operating beneath the surface. And, in true Peter fashion, he goes right there, with honesty and care.

    If you haven’t listened to Part One yet, I highly recommend starting there. Peter and I explore the unconscious beliefs that keep us stuck in survival mode, our resistance to fear and uncertainty, and what it means to move through life with more presence, freedom, and trust. Part Two picks up right where we left off.

    What unfolds is less of an interview and more of a real-time exploration of the beliefs we carry, the pressure we put on ourselves, and the ways our past can quietly shape how we move through the present.

    We explore perfectionism, safety, vulnerability, relationships, purpose, and what it might mean to live with less fear and more freedom. Along the way, Peter challenges some of the ways we typically think about healing, personal growth, and even the idea of becoming a “better” version of ourselves.

    There was a moment in this conversation when I could viscerally feel something shift in me. And it reminded me that sometimes transformation doesn’t happen because we’ve finally figured everything out — it happens when we’re willing to look at ourselves with a new perspective.

    This is a vulnerable, surprising, and deeply personal continuation of our conversation — and one I’m excited to share with you.

  • We Can Choose Heaven or Hell: How to Live From Freedom, Love & Presence with Peter Crone

    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.

  • Stage 3C Ovarian Cancer to No Evidence of Disease: Stacy Solodkin’s Healing Story

    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.

  • How to Open Your Life to Miracles: Yeshua’s Wisdom on Surrender with Psychic Medium Carissa Schumacher

    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.

  • You Are the CEO of Your Health: Rethinking the Cancer Journey with Elina Fuhrman

    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.

  • Is Hidden Mold Making You Sick? The Warning Signs in Your Home with Ariana Thacker

    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.

  • Can Alzheimer’s Be Prevented? The Brain Science Everyone Should Know with Dr. David Perlmutter

    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.

  • The Sleep Secrets That Will Change Your Life with Sleep Medicine Doctor Michael Breus, PhD

    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.
