In our latest episode of the NextUs podcast, we dive deep into the art of connection with Ivy Miller, a mindset and relationship coach who’s all about cultivating peace, authenticity, and compassion in our relationships—starting with ourselves.

From teaching conflict resolution and conscious communication to guiding us toward self-compassion, Ivy’s approach goes beyond the surface to touch the very heart of human connection. She reminds us that the most profound relationship we’ll ever have is the one with ourselves, and through that lens, every other connection can truly thrive.

This conversation was recorded live at the Haab Project in Mexico City, where Ivy shared her wisdom in front of an engaged audience, bringing her insights to life in a way that’s as inspiring as it is practical.

In the latest episode of the NextUs podcast, we explore the profound transformation of Aren Bahia—a Canadian entrepreneur, philanthropist, and a soul whose life embodies the full spectrum of human experience. From the gritty streets of Vancouver's underworld to the serene peaks of the Himalayas, Aren's path has been anything but ordinary. He's journeyed from organized crime to the quiet depths of meditation and yoga, finding his way to a life of service, generosity, and connection. 🧘‍♂️🌱

Since landing in Bali in 2016, Aren has launched eight businesses in as many years, including Karma House Bali and Conscious Arts Tattoos, each a testament to his relentless drive and boundless heart. He’s also dedicated himself to uplifting underprivileged Balinese children, channeling his success into meaningful change. But this episode holds a special place for me—Aren isn’t just a guest; he’s the friend who saved my life. Five years ago, when I broke my skull, Aren was the one who rushed me to the hospital, and I'll never forget his calm and care during one of the most critical moments of my life. 🙏❤️

Listen as we delve into Aren’s story of resilience, reinvention, and the raw courage it takes to rewrite your narrative. He’s not just building businesses; he’s building lives, one connection at a time.

Welcome back to the NextUs podcast, where we explore the future of humanity and life on Earth through the journeys of extraordinary individuals. I’m your host, Nik Wood, and today I’m thrilled to introduce our guest, Echo Giselle Widmer.

Echo has been a seeker throughout her entire life, guided by a deeply embedded intuition that has ushered her forward. Her path has been messy, unclear, and troubled, reflecting her inner world. Through trial and error, as well as periods of suffering, angst, and self-pity, she experienced a few wake-up calls that shifted her from victimization to conscious, intentional living.

Echo was deeply humbled during her darkest days. Despite the joy she held in her life, an undercurrent of inner darkness eventually tainted her most intimate relationships. She struggled to receive love and for a long time, her goal was not to love but to be loved. Like many, she sought completion outside of herself, only to be led back to her center. Once there, she realized how much she had neglected the truth of her being, her needs, desires, fears, and dreams.

At her turning point, Echo felt exhausted by the amount of work required to achieve mental health and healthy relationships. Now, on the other side of victimization, her objective is to help others overcome their own struggles. She aims to be a resource, tool, and guide, assisting others in returning home to themselves, to their center, to their truth, and to love over illusion.

Join us as we delve into Echo’s transformative journey and discover the wisdom she has gained along the way. Let's get started!
