In this episode of Soul Stories, Ariela HaLevi connects with her dear friend and shamanic practitioner Lia Borror for a deeply grounding conversation on calming the nervous system, breaking free from people-pleasing, and finding inner sanctuary amidst a chaotic world. Overcoming childhood betrayal and years of feeling forced into perfectionism for survival, Lia now guides sensitive and intuitive women to release self-abandonment and step into rooted authenticity.

Together, they demystify shamanic practices, reframing them as accessible, everyday tools grounded in our relationship with nature and the four elements. Lia shares practical techniques using Earth (ecosystem awareness), Water (washing away anxiety through intention and ocean/shower rituals), Air (letting the wind cleanse emotional residue), and Fire (using imagination to burn away spiraling thought loops). This is a conversation for anyone feeling overwhelmed by modern stress, seeking gentle ways to soothe their body, or ready to remember their own sovereignty, love, and divine light.

In this episode of Soul Stories, Ariela HaLevi connects with Grace Erickson for a powerful conversation about navigating severe chronic illness, confronting deep subconscious beliefs, and rediscovering the inner spirit. After contracting COVID in 2020, Grace went from living what appeared to be the picture-perfect version of health into a grueling four-year battle as a COVID long-hauler. Facing a laundry list of diagnoses, overwhelming anxiety, and a career turned upside down, she was forced to shift from seeking answers solely in Western medicine to listening deeply to her body’s internal wisdom.

Together, they explore the transition from hyper-focusing on external cures and prescription medications to embracing mind-body practices, brain rewiring, and direct communication with physical symptoms. Grace opens up about how chronic health struggles can expose the subconscious belief that "something is inherently wrong with me," and how sitting with physical pain can surprisingly reveal deep-seated love rather than just grief or anger. Grounded in her faith and connection to the Holy Spirit, she shares how choosing light over darkness and trusting her intuition helped her reclaim her life force energy. This is a conversation for anyone navigating a complex health journey, learning to trust their gut, or seeking the courage to step into their soul's greater purpose.

In this episode, Ariela HaLevi connects with Dr. Jessica Fish, an energetic chiropractor and founder of the Enlightened Method, for a conversation about the body as a messenger. Dr. Jessica calls herself an electrician for the body, reading the nervous system through muscle testing to uncover the structural, nutritional, and emotional roots of pain. Together they explore why our symptoms are so often the body's way of pointing us toward what we have not wanted to feel.

They move from the physical into the spiritual, sharing how emotions and even past lives get stored in the body, why so many of us avoid truly feeling, and what happens to our intuition once we finally let those emotions move. Dr. Jessica opens up about the experiences that cracked her open as a child, the unseen ancestor who protected her, and her mission to make this work available far beyond her own table. This is a conversation for anyone ready to stop fighting their body and start listening to what it has been trying to say.

In this premiere conversation, Ariela HaLevi sits down with spiritual mentor, oracle, and intuitive Carissa Johnsen for an open and unguarded talk about God. Ariela gave Carissa only one word to prepare with, God, trusting that the divine needs no script. Together they share how their relationship with the divine has reshaped their lives, and why naming God out loud, especially within the spiritual world, has been both edgy and deeply liberating.Carissa opens up about losing the business, the identity, and everything she had placed above God, and how that unraveling became a doorway back to the presence that was always within her. They explore spiritual malnourishment in a world full of healing tools, prayer as a simple conversation rather than a performance, movement as feminine devotion, and the teaching that changed everything for Carissa: you were never broken, you have always been whole. This is a conversation for anyone longing to feel God as a living relationship rather than a concept, and to remember the wholeness that was theirs all along.

In this brave and intimate conversation, Ariela HaLevi welcomes back somatic coach, nurse, and mother Amanda Frederick for a first-of-its-kind episode: a live shamanic session held right inside the quantum field. Together they explore why some healing simply can't happen through talk alone, and what becomes possible when we move it through the body, the ancestral lines, and the soul instead.

Through real-time energy work, ancestral mapping, and a tender soul retrieval, they release the inherited weight Amanda was never meant to carry, the hands around her throat, and the old belief that she had to be "good" to be safe. This episode invites listeners to move beyond the box women are taught to live inside and into a place of spaciousness, sovereignty, and their own free, wild truth.

In this deeply moving episode of Soul Stories with Ariela, Howard Snooks shares the extraordinary journey of a life shaped by service, grief, reinvention, and resilience.

Howard opens up about growing up in rural Colorado, working inside a controversial psychiatric hospital during the rise of patients’ rights, becoming a clinical social worker, and building a long career helping families and children through crisis. But it was the year 2015 that changed everything.

After the end of a 34-year marriage, the loss of multiple family members, a traumatic accident, and a complete unraveling of the life he thought he knew, Howard found himself in what he describes as a “bubble” of grief and dissociation. Together, Ariela and Howard explore what it means to survive soul-shattering moments and slowly gather the scattered pieces back together.

This conversation dives into aging, loneliness, purpose, spirituality, death, therapy, plant medicine, relationships, and the beauty of bridging generations. Howard’s honesty, wisdom, and humor make this episode a powerful reflection on what it truly means to keep living fully, even after life takes an unexpected turn.

A soulful and heartfelt conversation about grief, healing, meaning, and becoming whole again.

What if losing everything was the only way to find yourself? Today, we follow a high-powered executive who traded her corporate "machine" for a silent mountain.

After years of suppressing her intuition to perform, a "Dark Night of the Soul" forced her to stop. In the silence of Santa Cruz, she met her fiercest protector—a Black Jaguar—and learned that healing doesn't happen in the mind; it happens in the soul.

We don't have to escape the world to find peace. Whether it’s a deep breath or a quiet walk with a dog, the "sacred space" is always within reach.

What happens when a high-achiever nearly loses everything — and chooses not to rebuild the same life? In this episode of Soul Stories, host Ariela HaLevi sits down with coach, author, and community builder Kyle Emanuel Brown, who shares how a near-death experience with sepsis in 2019 cracked him open and led him toward a life of radical authenticity. Kyle opens up about shedding the hustle identity, building heart-centered community in Colorado, facing his deepest fears through vision quests and shamanic training, and what it truly means to trust yourself from the inside out. If you've ever felt like you were chasing the wrong thing, this conversation will hit home.

In this soul session, Ariela sits down with Amanda Frederick, somatic coach and evolutionary astrologer, for a conversation that goes deep, fast. Together they explore how your birth chart holds the map to your soul's growth, why the body is the missing piece in most spiritual work, and what it actually means to move toward your north node, not from your head, but from the inside of your bones.

From ancestral healing and past life patterns, to anger as a portal to power, to the radical idea of getting turned on by your grief, this episode doesn't talk about healing in theory. It is healing. If you've ever felt too much, disconnected from God when you weren't "being good," or like there's a wilder, truer version of you waiting underneath the good girl, this one's for you.

What if your anxiety isn’t just yours? In this deeply moving episode of Soul Stories, Rabbi Caryn Aviv shares how ancestral memory, Jewish history, and lived experience intertwine to shape the anxiety so many of us carry. Through vulnerability and wisdom, this conversation opens a doorway to understanding how our nervous systems respond to fear, uncertainty, and the need to belong.

Together, we explore the power of pausing, self-compassion, and reconnecting to the body as a path toward healing. This episode is an invitation to step out of survival mode and into a more grounded, loving relationship with yourself.
