Journey of the Modern Soul

Today, I’m chatting with my friend and co-host of the podcast The Experiment, Carrie Hopperstad. One of the key focuses of The Experiment is exploring life experiments that Carrie and her co-host have tried and sharing the results. In our conversation, we discuss a mix of approachable and more esoteric practices we’ve explored over the years. Topics include Human Design, Face Yoga, darkness meditation practices, and even Country Music. You might come away with a new modality to try—or the confidence to discover your own.

Today, I’m catching up with Sabrina Joy, the founder of Ahimsa Choice Wellness and a self-proclaimed “recovering stressaholic.” After years of battling the chaos, Sabrina now shares the transformative practices that helped her regain balance, guiding her clients toward calmer, more centered lives. Let’s face it—many of us are running around with frazzled, dysregulated nervous systems and don’t even realize it. That’s where Sabrina comes in, helping us identify those moments of inner mayhem and offering practical advice to restore a sense of calm and equilibrium. And honestly, what better time than now to lean into some down-regulating, peaceful practices? After all, the season practically demands cozy vibes and a bit of self-care.

Today’s conversation left a deep impression on me, that I am still unpacking. I had the opportunity to speak with Ean Wood about men’s relationship to sexuality—an often-sensitive topic for many men and those supporting them. We explored themes like responsibility around male sexuality, the subconscious impact of pornography, and the way sex can be used as validation. Ian brought an insightful perspective, along with practical support through his program, Sexual Reset. This program is designed to help individuals confront these stories, develop healthy awareness, and create a more intentional journey around sexuality. It’s a powerful conversation about healing, community, and growth.

For a long time, I dodged the “big questions” in life—not because I wasn’t curious, but because I didn’t know how to approach them. As the years went by, I found myself more intrigued by the questions themselves—not to find definitive answers, but to explore what it means to even ask them. In this episode, I’m joined by Peter Boland, a seasoned expert in philosophy, spirituality, and mythology. Together, we dive into thought-provoking topics like embracing your passions, breaking free from the pressure to monetize everything you do, and much more. So, what are your “big questions,” and where do you turn to wrestle with them?

Christine Gomes is joining me today to dive deep into the transformative power of yoga, trauma-informed practices, and the Polyvagal Theory. Through our conversation, we shed light on the impact of yoga programs in prison, showcasing the potential for profound change within these spaces. We speak to the importance of regulating your nervous system and explore practical tools you can use to understand and nurture your body's innate capacity for harmony and resilience. There is so much we can learn about ourselves and our bodies when we find the practices that work for us. When we can create safety within ourselves, we can learn and we can heal.

Today, I’m joined by Nic Milani for a deep conversation exploring self-discovery, trauma healing, and societal change, all through the lens of toxic independence. We discuss what healthy vulnerability looks like, how the drive for overachievement can stem from trauma, and the often unnoticed, accusatory nature of some subconscious questions. The episode concludes with a call to action in support of the 'Authentic Connections' animation project, a powerful initiative focused on suicide prevention and fostering genuine human connections.

As more states legalize cannabis, the culture and conversation surrounding it are evolving. What was once considered illegal or taboo is now recognized for its medicinal benefits. But with this shift, it's important to reconsider the personal stories and emotions we associate with cannabis. That’s where today’s guests, Jared and Laurie, come in. They guide their clients in developing mindful and responsible rituals around cannabis use. In this episode, we’ll explore the supportive role cannabis can play, how to establish intentional consumption practices, and what it means to redefine your relationship with a substance once stigmatized as a drug. As the understanding of plant and energetic medicines grows, are you open to shifting your perspective on something you thought you had figured out? Here's a chance to explore that possibility.
