Welcome to the Multiverse Technology Podcast, hosted by Justin ITee Walker—a 25+ year IT and cybersecurity leader who nearly died from an overdose, woke the hell up, and turned his spiritual awakening into a mission: helping leaders in tech, healthcare, and business remember they're human beings first.
This isn't your typical business podcast. This is where healthcare CEOs, founders, technologists, and leaders who are privately questioning everything come to have the conversations they can't have anywhere else—about shadow work, identity shifts, burnout, awakening, and what it actually means to lead when you're waking up in the middle of a demanding career.
We start with your journey. Who you were, the breaking point, and who you're becoming now. Then we connect those inner shifts to how you show up in your business, your leadership, and your life. Whether we're talking about AI, cybersecurity, digital transformation, or meditation and nervous system regulation, every conversation is filtered through one lens: human consciousness applied to the work we do.
You'll hear:
• Healthcare leaders navigating burnout while trying to bring humanity back into broken systems
• Founders and entrepreneurs who've realized there's more to life than the matrix they were sold
• Technologists exploring consciousness, energy, quantum mechanics, and what it means to build with awareness
• Recovery stories, trauma healing, and the messy, real process of transformation
• Practical tools: breathwork, meditation, tech boundaries, and nervous system regulation for high-performers
This show is for you if:
• You're successful on paper but know something's missing
• You're privately doing inner work (or curious about starting) but haven't talked about it publicly
• You're tired of business podcasts that ignore your humanity
• You're ready to stop living in silos and integrate ALL parts of yourself—your consciousness, your business, your healing, your leadership
My credibility? 25+ years in healthcare IT and cybersecurity. I run ITeeCMD, providing IT solutions for healthcare providers. But the real work I do now is creating space for leaders to drop the mask, talk about what's actually happening inside, and discover that leading from presence beats leading from panic every single time.
Join us each week for unscripted, organic conversations that inspire you to wake up, lead consciously, and remember: you're not just a title. You're a human being on a journey home to yourself.
