⁠Dr. Sam Rader spent 18 years as a psychotherapist before discovering something wild: regardless of age, race, socioeconomic status, or gender, every client was working from the same 12 subconcious patterns. And when you identify the code - and drop in to the quantum field - you can shift it.... in 30-60 minutes.

As someone who spent 12+ years in her healing era and tried every bizarre modality out there - none surprised me more than working with Dr. Sam. Patterns I'd talked about for 2 years in therapy resolved overnight in one session with her.

Join us for a conversation on:

• The nature of reality, the quantum field, and fractals
• "Glitches" in your inner matrix: and how to recode them
• What comes after the "healing" chapter of life (and how to break up with that identity)
• A 1:1 live coding session with me on social media frustrations to see her rewiring in action

This isn’t your average “quantum leap” convo.

It’s honest, unique, and electrifying — and might shift how you approach your inner world and your business.

Breakout star from Netflix's Jewish Matchmaking ⁠Harmonie Krieger⁠ (dating coach & matchmaker for ⁠Lox Club⁠) joins me for a slumber party style (with sprinkled in coaching) deep dive on The Casual Dating Experiment: aka the summer I tried dating casually for the first time in my 30's. Grab your confetti and let's do this.

After another failed love story and on the rebound, I took a journalist lens on my dating life and spent 3 months breaking every romantic pattern I believed in (aka leading with deep, emotional connection) - just to find out what would happen. I'm sharing all my learnings, and why my thesis ("you're not missing anything") was wrong.

We dive into:

Lessons Learned: casual doesn't have to mean shallow, disrespectful, or disconnected. So... What else can it look like? What's the value of it?

Breakout star from Netflix's Jewish Matchmaking Harmonie Krieger (dating coach & matchmaker for Lox Club) joins us for a deep on dating with a High EQ and complex trauma history.

If you're an empath, highly sensitive person, coach, therapist, or someone with a history of complex trauma - normal dating advice can feel like it just doesn't apply to you. Yes, someone being mean to a waiter is a red flag... duh? But how do you navigate when a trauma trigger hits? How do you recognize what's a red flag, vs your own disregulation and trauma lens?

We dive into:

• The Light & Deep Paradox: when you're both playful/light, and someone with a wide emotional range, what part do you lead with on first dates?
• The pitfalls of dating as a coach, therapist, or interviewer - and how to navigate

• Why "when you know you know" can be a trap

• Being an emotional sl*t - what it means to be friends with emotional benefits, one night emotional stands, and other things english doesn't have words for
• How to break an anxious/avoidant cycle
• What to do when you're years deep into a relationship and wondering if you should stay together or not

If you enjoy this episode and want more content around dating as a deeply feeling person - leave a comment and let me know! This is a new format / topic i'm testing out.

Aka: how a trance involving an elephant while I was on a cruise ship filled with 2,000 entrepreneurs caused me to move cities + change careers. (normal?).

If you’re in the middle of figuring it out — creatively, spiritually, emotionally — this one’s for youu ~

In this episode:

• Bizarre spiritual awakenings as an entrepreneur
• Experiences at Summit at Sea (Summit Series)
• Identity/ego deaths and how quickly the entrepreneurship path will force you to confront limiting beliefs
• Dreams + Lucid Dreaming
• How grief, intuition, and creator identity are all tangled together
