  • S1E2. How to be a Healthy Person MERAKI

    In this conversation, host Jackey Hall interviews Meraki, a mental health advocate, about various topics related to mental health and healing. They discuss the definition of mental health, the connection between mental, spiritual, and physical health, Meraki's personal healing journey, daily practices for mental health, the programming of our brains and society, the power of gratitude, the role of medication in healing, the concept of time and healing, and Meraki's upcoming retreat project. The conversation covers the Live Meraki retreat, which includes various healers and activities to help individuals find their power and reach their potential. It also discusses the use of psychedelics for healing and the importance of mental health and self-care.

     

    Mental health is the disconnect between the body and mind, and it involves the psychological battle between the analytical mind and the body's attempt to communicate that something is wrong.

    Healing and mental health involve addressing childhood trauma and finding the connection and needs that were not met as children.
    Practicing gratitude and setting intentions are important daily practices for mental health.
    The programming of our brains and society, particularly through AI, has a significant impact on mental health.
    Medication can play a role in healing, but it is important to approach it with caution and under the guidance of a healthcare professional.
    Time alone does not heal everything; it is the changes and actions taken during that time that lead to healing. The Live Meraki retreat offers a range of activities and healers to assist individuals in their personal growth and healing journey.
    The retreat includes yoga, outdoor activities, and opportunities to connect with nature.
    Psychedelics, such as ayahuasca, can be powerful tools for healing and transformation.
    Taking care of mental health is essential, and self-care practices are important for overall well-being.

  • S1E1. Meet your HOST

    This is my healing journey—and as I learn, you will too.

    I’m beyond grateful to have all of you walking alongside me as I break toxic, abusive cycles that have been passed down through generations in my family. Healing isn’t easy, but it’s possible—and we’re doing it together.

    My new podcast is almost here, and I can’t wait to share this next chapter with you. This space is rooted in mental health, trauma recovery, and healing from narcissistic abuse. I’ll be opening the doors to my home (and heart) every week, inviting you into the raw, real parts of my life as I try new treatments, share honest reflections, and explore what healing looks like day by day.

    We’ll also be joined by therapists, doctors, coaches, and mental health advocates from around the world—each bringing tools, knowledge, and different perspectives to help guide us toward healing. On top of that, this podcast will feature powerful stories from survivors of all types of abuse—emotional, physical, sexual, psychological, spiritual—from across the globe. These are real people with real stories, and their courage helps us all feel a little less alone.

    What works for me may not work for you, but here, you’ll find options, community, and the freedom to explore your own path.

    If you're searching for a safe, nonjudgmental space to heal mentally, physically, and spiritually—you’ve found it.

    We all deserve to live a life that feels good to wake up to. So buckle in… this journey may be bumpy, but it’s going to be so worth it.
