When you’ve built something from the ground up, what happens when you’re no longer part of it? In this deeply honest and wide-ranging episode, Kate is joined by Norwood Fisher, founding member and bassist of the iconic genre-defying band Fishbone, for a conversation about legacy, betrayal, and reinvention.

This episode isn’t just about music. Norwood opens up about his recent and unexpected departure from Fishbone after more than four decades, sharing the emotional and spiritual journey that followed. He speaks candidly about grief, creative conflict, and the pain of being pushed out of something you helped build—and how he’s alchemized that pain into purpose.

Norwood’s story is a testament to resilience, self-inquiry, and the power of transformation. This is a rare glimpse into the mind of a cultural pioneer who’s still growing, still healing, and still creating. If you’ve ever felt unmoored by change or unsure how to move forward after loss, this episode is a powerful reminder that sometimes the end of one chapter is the start of something even more meaningful.

If you’ve ever wondered why your needs feel like a burden—or why feeling your feelings can seem like a terrifying act—you’re not alone. In this compelling solo episode, Kate dives into the raw, messy, and profoundly liberating work of emotional healing. Inspired by a reverent session with her intuitive coach, Kate expands on what it means to truly feel your feelings, reclaim your wholeness, and stop outsourcing your self-worth.

This episode is a compassionate invitation to validate your inner experience and learn how to lovingly reparent yourself when life feels overwhelming.

What if the person you’re becoming is just waiting for you to believe it’s possible? In this riveting episode, Kate Eckman is joined by Robert Hamilton Owens, a 73-year-old endurance athlete, retired Air Force pararescueman, speaker, coach, and author of Beyond Average. Widely regarded as one of the fittest and most mentally tough men in the world, Robert has completed 12 Ironman triathlons, rowed across the Atlantic, and served in elite military operations. But his story is more than physical feats, it’s a masterclass in grit, healing, and becoming who you’re meant to be.

Kate and Robert dive deep into the origins of self-doubt, the inner voices that shape our identity, and how to rewire limiting beliefs that hold us back. Robert shares hard-won wisdom from a life marked by trauma, transformation, and relentless personal growth, including the pivotal moment when he refused to bail his own son out of jail, catalyzing a powerful journey of redemption.

They explore why suffering is often the path to greatness, how to lead yourself when no one is clapping, and what it takes to unlock the untapped potential within. If you’re in a season of solitude, reinvention, or big leaps, this conversation will meet you right where you are — and push you forward with raw inspiration and radiant truth.

Todd Stottlemyre has lived a life most people only dream about—pitching in the World Series, growing up around MLB legends, becoming a high-powered trader, entrepreneur, bestselling author, and motivational speaker. But what truly defines him isn’t his accolades—it’s his relentless commitment to personal mastery and helping others rise to their fullest potential.

In this powerful episode, Todd opens up about the pressure of legacy, the mental game behind his World Series wins, and how the same strategies that made him a top-performing athlete now fuel his success in business and life. We talk about overcoming failure, building identity outside of external achievements, and why your past doesn’t define your future unless you let it.

Todd also shares the moment that changed everything—the tragic loss of his younger brother—and how it pushed him to shift from achievement to significance. You’ll hear his philosophy on preparation, mindset, energy, and how to break through when you’re stuck in fear, doubt, or playing small.

This is more than a motivational episode—it’s a call to action to live life on your terms with courage, clarity, and purpose.

What if healing doesn't start in your mind—but in your body?

In this deeply moving conversation, Kate welcomes Britt Piper—author, somatic experiencing practitioner, and survivor-turned-healer. Britt shares her raw story of trauma, resilience, and the profound shift that happened when she stopped trying to “think” her way to healing and started listening to her body.

They talk about Britt’s lowest moments, including a pivotal three-day stay in a jail cell that became her “concrete bottom”— the turning point that awakened her curiosity and her calling. Through somatic work, Britt found not only her own healing, but a revolutionary path to guide others home to themselves.

This episode is a tender masterclass in becoming strong without hardening your heart.

What happens when your body gives out — but your soul wakes up?

In this unforgettable conversation, Kate sits down with former attorney, speaker, and truth-teller Scott Mason to talk about identity collapse, spiritual resurrection, and the life-altering wake-up call of a near-death illness.

With brutal honesty and emotional depth, Scott recounts the mysterious health crisis that changed everything — a spiral of pain, disconnection, and a prophetic dream that marked the end of his old self. From that collapse came clarity: truth isn’t just a value — it’s a path.

This is one of the most honest, profound, and healing conversations ever recorded on Rawish.

Through family lineage, personal transformation, and ancient yogic philosophy, Reema introduces us to a new way of understanding yoga—not as a workout, but as a way of being.

This episode includes a live guided meditation and breath practice you can do with Kate and Reema—so you’ll not only understand consciousness, you’ll feel it.
