The 8-Week Brain Reset: VISUALIZEin360's Evidence-Backed Approach w/Tessa Santarpia
Welcome to Compassiviste Dialogues. I'm Ali, your host, and my mission with this podcast is to shed light on critical social and environmental issues worldwide, exploring avenues for positive change.
Today I’m joined by Tessa Santarpia, Co-Founder and CEO of Visualize In 360. Columbia-trained and clinically grounded, Tessa was once on the fast track through the healthcare system—until she realized its biggest failures weren't science, but of soul.
Today, she’s pioneering a new model of wellness that blends trauma-informed healing, neuroscience, ancient practices, and AI-powered coaching.
In this episode, we dive into how Tessa’s journey disrupted traditional medicine, why she believes healing must go beyond management to true transformation, and how science and spirit can come together in practical, life-changing ways. We also explore the challenges of accessibility and the vision for making healing available to everyone, not just the few.
ABOUT GUEST:
Chief Executive Officer and Lead Trauma-Informed healing Facilitator
Tessa brings a rare blend of strategic healthcare expertise and deeply embodied healing practice. With a background in Health Policy and Management from Columbia University, she has led physician practice operations in both integrative medicine and mental health clinics, focusing on optimizing systems that prioritize patient experience, access, and impact.
Tessa’s professional path has always been rooted in one question: How can we make alternative healing therapies more understandable, accessible, and backed by science? This curiosity has led her to study the brain and nervous system through the lens of trauma, altered states of consciousness, and embodied healing. She is trained in mindfulness and meditation, somatic breathwork, psychedelic integration, and flow state facilitation, weaving these modalities into the fabric of VISUALIZEin360’s offerings.
As a trauma-informed healing facilitator, Tessa is passionate about creating spaces that support emotional safety, nervous system regulation, and inner transformation. Her leadership is driven by a belief that people deserve tools that meet them where they are and are grounded in both science and spirit.
KEY NOTES:
From Medicine to Meaning: What led Tessa to pursue healing beyond traditional healthcare
Healing Through Connection: Can community-based care return to modern life?
Where Science Meets Spirit: Blending neuroscience, ancient wisdom, and flow states
Beyond Pills and Therapy: Why true healing needs an exit strategy, not lifelong management
