She was 13 when they told her she had ADD.

So they gave her Ritalin.

That turned into coke.

Then meth.

But the real problem?

It was never focus.

It was dissociation.

Disconnection.

A nervous system stuck in survival.

In this raw, unfiltered conversation, Selden Beylouni opens up about her journey from diagnosis to addiction to something even rarer… authenticity.

We talk stimulants, freeze states, functional dissociation and the brutal beauty of finally landing in your body.

If you’ve ever been told you have ADD…

If stimulants helped you function but left you feeling hollow…

If something’s always felt off and you’ve never had the words for it...

This episode will name it.

And maybe, for the first time, make it make sense.

In This Episode with Selden Beylouni, You'll Discover:

• Why Ritalin worked so well… and why that was the most dangerous part
• What it really means when you can’t feel your feet
• How functional freeze hides behind high achievement
• The unspoken grief of breaking up with the drugs that saved you
• Why “ADD” isn’t a diagnosis - it’s a disguise
• The difference between spiritual floatiness and true embodiment - and why it matters more than you think
• Why she doesn’t need Ritalin anymore - and what she uses instead

Lisa thought she had it all handled. A career. A family. Four kids. A clean bill of mental health.

Then her face exploded.

Swollen. Red. Unrecognizable. Her body was screaming what her brain refused to admit:

She was not fine.

This wasn’t burnout. It wasn’t stress. It was decades of survival-mode living catching up with a vengeance.

In this episode, we unpack the meltdown – and the somatic awakening that followed.

Forget mindset. Forget therapy. This is the raw, real story of what happens when your nervous system finally says: Enough.

If you’ve tried everything and nothing sticks – listen to this.

In This Episode with Lisa Loiseau, You’ll Discover:

• The hidden danger of healing too fast
• How she unknowingly lived in freeze for years
• Why awareness is the first – and most dangerous – step
• How tiny movements rewired her nervous system
• The 4-step model that saved her sanity (and skin)
• The power of doing less (but doing it in your body)
• Why this work isn’t for everyone – and who should not do it
• The moment she realized she’d been in denial for decades
• How she used to think she was “just tired”
• What she teaches now – and why it’s nothing like therapy

You feel fine.

You handle your shit.

You make money. You lift. You “do the work.”

So why does life still feel like a fucking flatline?

In this episode, Mitch Webb and I rip the lid off a truth most men will die never knowing:

You’re not broken.

You’re not lazy.

You’re not unmotivated.

You’re frozen.

Stuck in a state where everything feels… muted. Dull. Like you’re watching your life through a dirty fish tank.

And because you’ve been that way for years – maybe decades – you think it’s just who you are.

It’s not.

It’s your nervous system.

And once you learn how to work with it — not bypass it, hack it, or think your way around it — you can come back online. Feel again. Want again. Live again.

But only if you’re ready to face the truth that mindset, meditation, and microdosing alone won’t save you.

In This Episode with Mitch Webb, You’ll Discover:

• The brutal myth that’s kept you stuck: “Maybe this is just how I am”
• The frozen prison you never knew you were in (until now)
• Why you’ve been trying to shit into a toilet that’s been blocked for 30 years
• The real reason ice baths, breathwork, and affirmations always wear off
• Why numbness isn’t weakness — it’s your nervous system screaming for help
• What “emotional deadlifts” taught Mitch about feeling everything again
• Why chasing peak states is just a high-class way to stay stuck
• How to finally feel alive again — without journaling your trauma or meditating it away

Let me ask you something:

What’s it costing you to ignore your body?

Burnout? Missed decisions? Lost money?

Because after five years of saying this stuff… I finally got through to one of the smartest, most skeptical blokes I know:

My mate Rob.

Sharp as a blade.

Zero time for fluff.

High-paid business consultant who can dissect a profit-loss sheet in seconds.

For five years, every time I mentioned the nervous system?

Instant eye-roll.

Words like “somatic,” “healing,” or “body wisdom”?

He’d sooner listen to a guy named Raven at a blindfolded breathwork retreat.

But then something shifted.

He messaged me from Portugal — while I was hiking the mountains here in Peru — and I literally laughed out loud reading it.

Why?

Because he finally saw the science.

A study out of London revealed this wild truth:

The most successful traders weren’t the smartest.

They weren’t the most educated.

They were the best at feeling their heartbeat.

Literally.

They had insane interoceptive capacity — the ability to detect their own internal states.

Another study looked at bankers.

Same thing.

The ones who stopped treating their body like a machine…

…and started listening to it like a partner?

They became more strategic, more creative, less reactive — and made better decisions under pressure.

And suddenly, Rob got it.

Not because it was spiritual.

Not because it was about “healing his inner child.”

But because it was quantifiable. Measurable. Tactical.

He said:

“This makes sense. It’s not vague or manipulative. It’s real. It’s data. Now I get what the hell you’ve been on about.”

He doesn’t care about trauma.

He’s not trying to “find himself.”

But performance? Leadership? Clarity?

That he can wrap his head around.

He’s finally realized:

This work isn’t about fixing you.

It’s about tuning the machine…

…getting it to work for you — not against you.

So if you’re pushing through the days on sheer willpower…

…grinding on autopilot…

…ignoring the inner signals until something breaks…

It might be time to stop trying to out-hustle your biology…

…and start learning how to master it.

Want to build your own interoceptive edge?

Listen to this episode.

In This Episode with John Wood, You’ll Discover:

• Why sensing your heartbeat could be the ultimate business edge (and why most ignore it)
• How to train your interoceptive capacity with nothing but your breath, body, and a chair
• The costly mistake most high performers make with their body (it’s burning them out)
• What if your stress, fatigue, and stuckness had nothing to do with mindset—and everything to do with disconnection?
• “Finally, it makes sense. It’s measurable. It’s real.” – A skeptical consultant’s unexpected conversion
• Why tomorrow’s top performers won’t just master data—but their own biology
• Why “feel your feelings” isn’t weak, feminine, or vague—it’s a tactical business decision
• Ignore this signal from your body and you might make less, crash harder, and burn out faster
• The bizarre way your need to pee could hold the key to better decision-making
• Ever feel off but can’t explain why? This one body-based skill could change everything

So instead of an interview today, I thought I’d do something a little different.

There are already a million podcasts out there interviewing experts. And yeah, I’ll still do more of those. There’s value in them.

But there are some things I want to talk about — things I don’t always get to go deep into when I’ve got a guest on.

And today, I want to talk about something I think is fucking cool (but may not seem like it on the surface).

Something I keep circling back to:

Safety.

Not safety like helmets and seat belts.

I’m talking about the kind of safety your nervous system needs to stop spinning out.

Because here’s the deal:

You can meditate.

You can journal.

You can do your breathwork, your cold plunges, your cacao ceremonies, your gratitude lists — but if you don’t know how to actually create a felt sense of safety inside yourself, none of that other shit really lands.

You’re just rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic.

The loop — anxiety, rage, shame, freeze — it keeps spinning.

The real work is interrupting that loop...

...by learning how to feel, on a nervous-system level, safe.

I’ve written about this before, so it might not be brand new…

But it’s still the thing.

Hell, it's everything.

Because if you don’t have safety, nothing else sticks.

And if you do?

Everything changes.

So this is me riffing. No script. No guest. Just my perspective on what I think is the root issue in personal development, healing, growth — whatever you want to call it.

Let’s get into it.

In This Episode with John Wood, You'll Discover:

• Why your nervous system doesn’t give a shit about your positive mindset — and what it actually wants instead
• How to finally stop spiraling by creating real safety — inside your body, not just your brain
• What safety really means (hint: it’s not bubble baths or saying “I’m safe” a hundred times)
• WARNING: If you skip this one step, no amount of journaling or breathwork will ever fix you
• The terrifying truth about meditation: how it can actually keep you more stuck in survival mode
• Ever wonder why you still feel unsafe, even when your life looks totally fine on paper?
• The simple daily shift that starts telling your nervous system, “Hey, you’re safe now.”

Your body is not your own.

It’s hijacked.

Every time you scroll the news, read a headline, watch another clip – it spikes your nervous system.

Not by accident. On purpose.

Fear sells. Rage converts. Shame keeps you compliant.

The media doesn’t care about truth.

It cares about activation – getting you angry, afraid or defensive enough to click, share, scream.

In this episode, I sit down with Joe Martino from Collective Evolution to dissect the psychological warfare waged on your nervous system by modern media – and how embodiment makes you immune.

We go deep on outrage addiction, nervous system dysregulation and how political division is fueled not by truth – but by unresolved trauma and a total disconnect from the body.

If you want to think for yourself, feel for yourself and take your nervous system back from the parasite that feeds on your reactivity…

This episode is your first shot fired.

In This Episode with Joe Martino, You’ll Discover:

• The micro-trauma buried in every headline – and how to stop letting it own you
• Why watching the news is worse for your nervous system than three espressos and a breakup text
• How shame, fear and outrage are manufactured – and who profits when you bite the bait
• The invisible addiction: why you need bad news to feel alive (and how to break the cycle)
• The real reason you hate the other political side (spoiler: it’s not ideology)
• How to tell if your reaction is reality… or programming

How far are you willing to go to meet yourself?

Not the filtered, smiling, Insta-version of you.

Not the you that does gratitude journaling or goes to yoga retreats to feel “grounded.”

I’m talking about the raw, unedited YOU.

The kind you keep hidden.

This week, I bring on Severin Geser, a man who guides people into total darkness — no light, no screens, no escape — for days on end.

It’s called a “dark retreat,” but make no mistake:

This isn’t a vacation.

You’ll be face-to-face with your mind, your fears, every hidden thought you’ve buried in distractions.

The dark retreat takes away all your comforts, all your exits.

No one’s there to coddle you.

You’ll eat, sleep, and exist in pitch-black silence until it’s just you and the stuff you’ve been running from your whole life.

Ready to unplug from reality and confront the beast in the mirror?

Then listen to this podcast now 🎙️

In This Episode with Severin Geser, You’ll Discover:

For years, I’ve told people that I HATE social media.

Really.

I’ve literally avoided it for years.

No Facebook, Instagram or TikTok.

No Twitter.

No Snapchat.

But a few months ago, after a conversation with a friend, I decided to give it another shot.

My friend wouldn’t shut up about these things called “reels”.

He said it might be a good way to get the word out about Rageheart.

So I decided to give it a try…

…and it turns out, I’m actually having a blast with it.

The reason I tell this story is because I met today’s guest on Instagram.

She found a reel I’d made on how “get healed quick” is a scam.

She liked it.

She commented.

That led to a DM conversation…

…and then today’s podcast.

So it turns out, Instagram is NOT the toxic waste of time that I thought it was.

You can actually meet some pretty cool people on there.

With that in mind…

Enjoy!

Let’s talk about sex baby…

…again 😂

This time, I’m talking with Alice Little.

She’s a 4’8″ legal sex worker.

A sex educator.

Intimacy expert.

AND

She’s the highest paid and most successful legal sex worker in the US…

…raking in a jaw-dropping $1.2 million dollars in just 12 months.

So if you’ve ever assumed that sex work is not a viable, lucrative or rewarding career, think again.

To top things off, she’s incredibly passionate about her work (as you’ll hear in this podcast) and enjoys the hell out of it.

In This Episode with Alice Little, You’ll Discover:

In 2017, Jonny Miller’s fiancée took her own life.

This podcast episode is about what happened next.

How did Jonny deal with the gut-wrenching pain of this loss?

How did he open to love again?

And what were some of the most powerful lessons along the way?

He describes this journey beautifully in one of his emails:

"One of my more profound realizations –– and gifts of grief –– was that I had unknowingly spent the vast majority of my life living in my head and emotionally numb from the neck down."

Enjoy!
