  • 110. Mark England | Dismantling Victim Mentality Through Language and the Power of Decisiveness

    Co-founder and head coach at Enlifted, Mark England, has been researching, presenting and coaching on the power of words for over 15 years. However, Mark does more than teach people how to communicate, he offers practical tools to individuals and organizations, and helps others clearly express their intentions and avoid calling in what they actually don’t want. In this episode, we chat all about the power of words as a tool for changing our perception and reality.


    Mark and I dive into…

    ⟶ Practical ways to dismantle the victim mentality

    ⟶ What is soft talk and how to transition out of it

    ⟶ Discipline and curiosity > motivation

    ⟶ How language unlocks breath and parasympathetic nervous system response

    ⟶ The Should Detox and an easy formula to follow

    ⟶ And more!

  • 109. Joseph Fauria | From NFL to Breathwork, Navigating Death, and Taking the Reins to Our Life

    Joe Fauria is a former NFL athlete, current breathwork facilitator, and co-founder of Hello Wellness Retreats. After wrapping up his time in the NFL, he found himself in similar shoes to many ex-athletes as he struggled to navigate his identity off the field—a common place to those who have transitioned away from a job that they identified so deeply with.


    Along the journey to discover what else lights him up, he found himself in the depths of self-work and establishing a stronger sense of self as he now leads groups and retreats in breathwork practices to drop deeper into self-realization.


    Joe and I dive into…

    ⟶ His journey from the NFL into breathwork facilitation

    ⟶ How he went against the grain to stay true to who he is

    ⟶ Leaning into creativity after emotionally, physically, and spiritually hitting rock bottom post-football career

    ⟶ The blessing of a psychedelic experience that preceded a life-altering familial loss

    ⟶ Growing up without a father present and how that has impacted his relationship to the masculine

    ⟶ And more!

  • 108. Neeta Bhushan | That Sucked, Now What: From Victim, to Survivor, to Thriver

    Dr. Neeta Bhushan grew through immense tragedy at a young age with the passing of her brother and both parents. She naturally took on the responsibility for carrying the rest of the family amidst these tragedies and transitions, all which led her to decide how she would move forward with this new life that stood before her—cue the art of navigating loss and a completely unfamiliar life.

    Max Casa is a lifelong martial artist, forever on the journey to optimize his mind and body. At 16 years old, he experienced a life-altering car accident—serving as a “universal reset”—which led him to the discovery of float therapy. From the hospital, he headed for one of the only float centers in Massachusetts at the time and from there, fell in love with this incredible healing modality.

  • 103. Dr. Ted Achacoso | The Hype with Methylene Blue

    Dr. Ted Achacoso finished college at 18 and Medical School at 2—if that doesn't catch your attention, I don't know what will. He was a professor of Medical Informatics at George Washington University at 28, and at 45 he retrained in Interventional Endocrinology and Nutritional Medicine. 

    Dr. Ted pioneered HOMe (Health Optimization Medicine), operating through the lens of evolutionary medicine—shifting from the typical preventative medicine to optimizing health by detecting and correcting subtle deficiencies and toxicities that prevent one from performing at their best. 

    He stands by the belief that signs and symptoms are the body’s way of balancing and healing itself; so at what point do we need to resist interfering with the body's intelligence when it comes to healing, and focus on creating an empowering environment for it to do so?


    Dr. Ted and I dive into…

    ⟶ Assessing the root causes of health, not root causes of disease.

    ⟶ The hype with Troscriptions' Methylene Blue and why you may benefit from it.

    ⟶ Dr. Ted’s 7 Pillars of Health.

    ⟶ The importance of vitamin D primarily through sun exposure.

    ⟶ Health being A (absence of disease) + B (balance) + C (the cycle of life to organism).

    ⟶ And more!
