In this week’s episode, Dr. Robyne welcomes Ian Lopatin, co-founder of Spiritual Gangster and Of Course Sanctuary, and a noted entrepreneur in the spirituality space.

Ian shares his non-linear journey from lawyer to yoga instructor to building movements rooted in community, positivity, and joy. Together, they explore how ancient wisdom and modern science intersect, and how our energy, mindset, and daily practices shape the way we experience our lives. Ian offers practical strategies for shifting out of low-energy states, moving beyond stress and scarcity, and cultivating abundance and connection.

You’ll hear reflections on why success alone doesn’t guarantee fulfillment, the importance of infusing goals with emotion, why true wellness is deeply tied to connection, and how cultivating hope can open doors for transformation in ourselves and those around us.

If you’ve felt weighed down by negative energy or disconnected from possibility, this conversation will leave you feeling energized, empowered, and ready to step into a more expansive way of living.
