Ep. 158. In this episode, I sit down with Darlene van der Grift for an enlightening conversation that explores the wisdom of the body, the influence of past lives, and the power of intuition in our healing journeys.

Darlene shares how her path began with her mother’s health crisis, opening the door to kinesiology, muscle testing, and the realization that the body holds its own intelligence. We dive into her unique role as a timeline architect, where she helps people navigate and integrate past life experiences into the present moment.

Segments:

• Healing and intuition — how Darlene’s journey began and the practices that shaped her path

• Timeline architecture — what it means to heal and shift experiences across lifetimes

• Meditation and awareness — using stillness to access past life memories and insights

• The body’s wisdom — learning to listen, communicate, and shift timelines through our own intelligence

• Relationships as mirrors — how our closest bonds reflect our wounds and invite healing

• Herbs and creativity — the role of plants, art, and writing in supporting health and expression

Ep. 157. In this episode, I sit down with retired psychotherapist Phyllis Leavitt to explore the urgent need for healing, in our personal lives and across America as a nation. Drawing from her decades of experience in trauma therapy, Phyllis reveals how personal healing is the foundation for national recovery, and how the same patterns of family dysfunction, abuse, and neglect we see in homes also play out not only in America but in nations worldwide.

This conversation is about breaking cycles of abuse, reconnecting to yourself through what you love, and recognizing that every person has the power to impact their community.

Ep. 154. In this powerful episode, I’m joined by Britton and Carolee Beckham as we dive deep into their healing journey after leaving the Mormon Church. We talk about what happens when the foundation of your identity: faith, marriage, even your sense of self, is shaken by infidelity and cracked open by spiritual awakening.

Britton and Carolee share their raw, honest path of deconstructing religious programming, redefining their relationship, and embracing sacred sex, embodiment, and ritual as tools for transformation. We talk about the role of forgiveness, the power of manifestation through sexual energy, and how moon rituals and astrology became spiritual anchors after religion.

This episode is full of truth-telling — about love, shame, and sovereignty. It's a story of how they chose to heal, not just individually, but as a couple. If you’ve ever felt disconnected from your inner truth or struggled with sexuality and spirituality in a world of rigid doctrine, this one will resonate deeply.

Topics we explore:

• Life inside and after the Mormon Church

• How infidelity became a catalyst for self-discovery

• The role of sacred sexuality in their healing journey

• Forgiveness as a spiritual practice

• Sexuality as a path to embodiment and sovereignty

• Manifestation through sexual energy

• Moon rituals, astrology, and reclaiming spiritual power

Bio

Britton and Carolee Beckham, raised in the strict dogma of the Mormon church, and with infidelity threatening their marriage and family, found themselves at a cliff’s edge. Through a deep commitment to heal, these two left everything they knew to find themselves. Over five years, they rebooted their relationship and travelled the world seeking their truth with four kids in tow. They have emerged on the other side as an embodied and awakened couple with a powerful message to share.

Ep. 152. In this episode, I sit down with Alexandra Beller, brilliant choreographer, educator, and artist, to explore the deep, often radical connection between creativity, the body, and the soul. We talk about how dance isn’t just an art form, but a way of being.

Alexandra shares how listening to the body opens pathways to intuition, artistic truth, and even rest. We unpack the messy magic of the creative process, the lifelong journey of unlearning what we were taught about worth, and how creating art is a radical act of self-trust and authenticity. This conversation reminds us that joy and play aren’t luxuries, they’re part of the work. That rest is not a reward, and that our creativity, when rooted in embodiment, becomes a tool for healing, remembering, and becoming.

Ep. 151. In this episode, I sit down with Lizbeth De Sa, an Internal Family Systems (IFS) practitioner, to explore how healing childhood trauma begins with listening to our inner world. Lizbeth walks us through the concept of the “multiple mind,” where different parts of ourselves—especially protectors and inner children—hold memories, behaviours, and beliefs shaped by our past. We discuss how building trust with these parts is essential for healing, and how IFS therapy creates a safe space to approach trauma gently and compassionately.

We also explore the powerful role of joy in healing, and how even laughter can become a tool for release. Lizbeth introduces us to laughter yoga and reminds us that playfulness can live alongside pain.

Ep. 149. In this episode, I’m joined by transformational coach and Modern Priestess Nedjma for a raw, soulful conversation on the journey of self-discovery, healing, and authentic empowerment. We explore how many of us, especially women, are conditioned to people-please, perform, and shrink to fit into roles that were never made for us. Nedjma opens up about her transition from a traditional career in pharmacy to the world of coaching and personal growth, a shift sparked by a deep inner call to stop fitting in and start showing up fully.

She also shares her signature method, the Sacred Undressing Journey, and how it helps women peel back the layers of societal conditioning and reconnect with their truest selves. We dive into the four archetypes of womanhood — Queen, Warrior, Lover, and Mystic — and what it means to embody them in everyday life.
