Cheri Carandanis, an abstract painter and former Air Force critical care nurse, shared her journey from pre-med studies to nursing, driven by her desire to balance career and family. She transitioned to the military, specializing in ICU and CCAT teams, and served in Afghanistan post-9/11. After separating from the military, she pursued hospice nursing and earned a master's degree in nursing. In 2019, she suffered two brain injuries, leading to cognitive and vestibular issues, forcing her to retire her nursing license. Through functional neurology and alternative therapies, she recovered significantly, emphasizing the importance of creativity and mindfulness in healing.

Highlights from today's episode include:

When I paint, I don't have a brain injury." – Abstract art and flow state became a powerful part of her neurological and emotional healing after two brain injuries.

"If you've seen one healing, you've seen one healing." – Every healing journey is unique, and creativity, intuition, and somatic work can open paths that conventional medicine alone often can't.

"Nothing's really broken; it's just not communicating how it should." – The body often needs a reset, not a label, and approaches like Bowen and other body-centered work help "reboot" the nervous system so healing can happen.

Cheri Carandanis is an abstract painter, mixed media artist, and former Air Force Critical Care nurse who knows a thing or two about surviving what she never saw coming. After a traumatic brain injury ended her 25-year nursing career, she turned to art…not as a hobby, but as a lifeline.

Now based in Portland, Oregon, Cheri creates raw, emotionally layered work that invites connection and contemplation. Her paintings don't try to explain everything—instead, they hold space for what's been broken, unraveled, and rebuilt. Through texture, color, and bold mark-making, she explores themes of healing, resilience, and the beauty that often shows up after the fall.

Her story is one of reinvention, grit, and choosing creativity when everything else falls away.

Core purpose/passion: My core purpose is to create space for truth, the kind that lives in the body, not just the story. I'm passionate about art as a place where people can slow down, feel what they've been avoiding, and come back to themselves without being fixed or explained. I care about honest healing, not performative healing, and about beauty that holds weight, not escape. My work invites presence, courage, and staying with what's real.

Amanda Harris, a movement specialist, discusses her unique approach to pain management, focusing on correcting faulty movement patterns and calming the nervous system.

For the transcript and full story go to: https://www.drmanonbolliger.com/amanda-harris2

Highlights from today's episode include:

Amanda says chronic pain is often a nervous-system problem; calming fight-or-flight is key before new movement can heal pain.

Amanda describes a hybrid model (online course + weekly Zoom + Voxer + optional 1:1s) can be more supportive than in-person only.

Manon explains if you keep repeating the same explanations, turn them into an online resource, bonus, or membership to educate and support patients at scale.

Amanda Harris is the owner and founder of Re-Kinect Medical Exercise in Richmond, Virginia. She specializes in working with people who have chronic low back pain for any number of reasons, including disc herniation, spinal stenosis and various spinal surgeries. In addition, she has extensive experience working with those who have undergone total knee, hip or shoulder replacement.

Amanda has over 25 years of experience in post-rehabilitative and medical exercise, and is passionate about helping people return to the activities they enjoy after injury or surgery. She has had the good fortune of collaborating with top physicians and physical therapists over the course of her career.

Her unique approach includes using carefully selected and graded exercises and movement patterns to teach the body how to move better and without pain. Breathwork, mindset training and education on what's happening in your body reduces stress and brings about the positive environment needed to truly heal and move beyond pain.

Amanda's credentials include: Master's Degree: Exercise Physiology from the University of Virginia Certification: Medical Exercise Specialist from the Medical Exercise Training Institute Certification: Redcord Active Specialist from Redcord International Certification: Neurokinetic Therapy Level 1

Core purpose/passion: My core purpose and mission: to help people free themselves from bodily pain–not just for now, but in the future as well–so they can resume the active lifestyles they love.

Stacy Scarcella, a former corporate executive, transitioned to a creative entrepreneur after 13 years in fashion, advertising, and technology. Diagnosed with Marfan Syndrome at 25, she faced significant challenges, including legal blindness and potential infertility. Despite a grim prognosis, Stacy pursued self-care, research, and adaptive activities like Zumba and yoga. She emphasized the importance of self-advocacy and resilience. Stacy also works in mental health advocacy, particularly for adolescents, highlighting the need for early intervention and support. Her journey underscores the value of creativity, freedom, and positivity in overcoming health challenges.

For the transcript and full story go to: https://www.drmanonbolliger.com/stacy-scarcella

Highlights from today's episode include:

Be your own health advocate and move one step at a time: When she was diagnosed with Marfan Syndrome at 25 with a very grim prognosis, Stacy chose not to stay stuck in fear. She did her own research, sought multiple opinions, adjusted her lifestyle, and focused on "What can I do right now and one minute forward?" rather than catastrophizing the future.

Create freedom and possibility by redefining your path: Leaving a "boxed-in" corporate career, Stacy built Plaid Pony Productions around freedom: choosing diverse projects, not being tied to one creative partner, and continually pivoting (Zumba, yoga, events, mental health advocacy). Her core mindset

Bedside manner and medical 'fashion' can shape a patient's fate: Manon highlights how the way a diagnosis is delivered can deeply harm or help a patient. She compares it to her own experience of being told she "needed" a C‑section because of narrow hips, only to safely have a home vaginal birth after seeking many opinions. She stresses that practitioners must be conscious of their language and the current "fashion" in medicine, because patients often meet a diagnosis first as doom and gloom, with very little visible information about alternatives, self-care, and hopeful possibilities.

ABOUT STACY SCARSELLA:

For more than two decades, Stacy Scarsella has built a career defined by vision, resilience, and reinvention. A former corporate executive turned creative entrepreneur, Stacy spent over 15 years climbing the ranks in fashion, advertising, and technology working with industry giants such as Armani, Macy's, Talbots, TJX Companies, and Bose. Her career trajectory pointed toward becoming a CMO, but the demands of corporate life, constant travel, long hours, and lack of fulfillment sparked a personal reckoning. In 2015, following a season marked by profound loss and transformation, Stacy traded boardrooms for the beaches of Los Angeles, where a moment of clarity reshaped her entire future.

That clarity became Plaid Pony Productions, a full-service production company known for its storytelling integrity, cinematic creativity, and world-class brand activations. From major commercial campaigns to experiential events, Stacy leads her team in producing standout work for global names including Disney, AT&T, and other Fortune 500 companies. Known for her strategic foresight and innate ability to forecast industry shifts, she's built a business that blends artistry with operational precision delivering results that can't be replicated by automation or artificial intelligence.

But Stacy's story runs deeper than her professional accomplishments. Diagnosed with Marfan Syndrome at 25 and told she might never have children or live past 40, she defied every prediction. Today, at 43, she's a mother of two, a mentor, and a passionate advocate for mental health awareness and suicide prevention causes close to her heart following the loss of her best friend. Her philosophy, "Why not?", defines her approach to both business and life: embracing creativity, curiosity, and courage in the face of uncertainty.

Beyond the studio, Stacy is a creative force in every sense an artist, yoga enthusiast, avid gardener, and dual citizen of Italy who finds joy in simple rituals like family dinners and dancing in the kitchen. Through speaking, consulting, and community initiatives, she now helps others humanize their brands in the age of AI, teaching entrepreneurs how to connect authentically and lead with purpose. Her work, both on and off the set, is a testament to her greatest belief: that success is not about control it's about creating a life that feels deeply alive.

Core purpose/passion: My philosophy is: "Why not?", and it defines my approach to both business and life: embracing creativity, curiosity, and courage in the face of uncertainty.

In this episode of The Healers Café, Manon Bolliger, speaks to Cedric Bertelli, founder of the Emotional Health Institute, discusses his methodology, Emotional Resolution (EMRS), which addresses emotional imprints through somatic neuroscience. Inspired by his grandfather's resilience post-WWII, Cedric developed EMRS to help individuals resolve emotional patterns by feeling physical sensations without control. He explains that the brain predicts emotions based on past experiences, often rooted in trauma, and EMRS allows these predictions to play out naturally, updating the brain's response.

For the transcript and full story go to: https://www.drmanonbolliger.com/cedric-bertelli

Highlights from today's episode include:

Emotions are outdated predictions: Debilitating emotions are often outdated predictions from the brain, triggered when current stimuli resemble elements from past traumatic moments. The body then recreates old physical sensations (interoception), even when they're no longer relevant.

Resolution by fully feeling sensations (90 seconds) : If a person can safely stay with the raw physical sensations of an emotion—without trying to regulate, fix, or control them—the interoceptive wave naturally completes within about 30–90 seconds, and the brain updates its prediction, so the same stimulus no longer triggers that reaction.

Stop building stories; stay with the body: Manon emphasizes the importance of not creating or feeding mental stories about what we feel. By witnessing the emotion innocently and staying with the body's sensations rather than the narrative, we allow real resolution instead of reinforcing the pattern.

ABOUT CEDRIC BERTELLI:

Cedric Bertelli is the founder of the Emotional Health Institute and co-developer of Emotional Resolution® & EmRes®, a somatic, neuroscience-based approach for resolving emotional imprints. Before dedicating himself to emotional health, Cedric spent more than a decade in the hospitality industry, including leadership roles with The Ritz-Carlton Hotel Company, where he developed a deep understanding of human behavior and service.

Over the past 15 years, he has trained practitioners across the world, guided thousands of clients, and partnered with researchers at UCLA and UCSF to advance the scientific foundations of EmRes. His work focuses on making emotional healing simple, effective, and accessible so people can live with greater clarity, ease, and resilience.

Core purpose/passion: My core purpose is to help people reconnect with their natural capacity to resolve emotional pain. Not to manage it, not to suppress it, and not to build workarounds around it — but to truly resolve it at the physiological level so they can live with more freedom, presence, and ease.

In this episode of The Healers Café, Manon Bolliger, speaks to Ken Blackman who discusses the dynamics of breakups, highlighting that anxiously attached individuals often initiate them. Blackman advocates for building relationships that provide mutual support, especially during challenging times, to foster long-term happiness and health.

For the transcript and full story go to: https://www.drmanonbolliger.com/ken-blackman

Highlights from today's episode include:

Ken explains Chemistry vs. intimacy: A great relationship needs both spark and the safety to be fully yourself, not constantly "protecting the vibe."

Ken explains Healthy breakup: A loving split sounds like "I see you, I get what you need, it's valid—but it's outside my range," with mutual respect, grief, and relief.

Manon explains Real freedom: What feels most free is not many partners, but being completely yourself—"weirdness" and all—with one person who truly gets you.

ABOUT KEN BLACKMAN:

A former Apple engineer turned relationship mindset coach and intimacy educator, Ken Blackman is currently celebrating his 25th year helping couples co-create a thriving, fulfilling life partnership and a gourmet love life. His work has garnered mentions in Business Insider, Playboy, Tim Ferriss's 4-Hour series, Cosmopolitan, and elsewhere. He's a regular featured contributor to The Good Men Project, Better Humans, and his own Medium publication, The Craft of Intimate Coupledom.

Core purpose/passion: I think my superpower as a relationship coach is to be a translator and help them see and understand each other. I tend to listen and ask, listen and ask, until I feel like I see the world through one partner's eyes. Then I do the same with the other partner, listen and ask until I see the world through their eyes. Then I help them see each other. Sometimes translation; is just saying to one partner exactly what I heard the other say, but as though I'm speaking to the most important, honorable person in the world, whom I have the highest regard for.

In this episode of The Healers Café, Manon Bolliger, speaks to health coach and nervous system expert Mitch Webb who shares his powerful journey from biohacking and forcing his body to heal, to embracing trauma-informed, somatic, and nervous system-based healing. Discover how shifting from survival mode to self-trust and gentle awareness can transform chronic symptoms and expand your capacity for life.

For the transcript and full story go to: https://www.drmanonbolliger.com/mitch-webb

Highlights from today's episode include:

Force vs. healing: Mitch describes how intense biohacking, strict diets, and "overwhelming force" helped only temporarily—true, sustainable healing began when he addressed unresolved trauma and his nervous system.

Sensitization & safety: Mitch explains sensitization (chronic hyper-vigilance, fear, and shrinking life) and how building safety, capacity, and self-trust through somatic and nervous system work allowed his symptoms to ease and his life to expand.

Bowen as a doorway to safety: Manon highlights how Bowen therapy can gently guide the body out of constant sympathetic overdrive, helping people slow down, become observers of their physical experience, and open another doorway into the deeper healing process.

ABOUT MITCH WEBB:

Mitch Webb is a health coach and nervous system expert who helps clients heal from the inside out. He works one-on-one with people dealing with gut issues, anxiety, autoimmune symptoms, fatigue, burnout, and other chronic conditions that haven't resolved through conventional approaches.

His approach is trauma-informed, body-based, and tailored to the individual. If you're ready to feel like yourself again, Mitch helps you get there. To contact, visit mitchwebb.com

Core purpose/passion: My core mission is to help people heal their nervous systems so they can stop chasing symptoms and start trusting their bodies again. I'm here to guide folks out of survival mode and back into a life that feels safe, aligned, and fully alive

In this episode of The Healers Café, Manon Bolliger, speaks to Frank, who discussed his mental health struggles, including major depressive disorder and chronic suicidal ideation, and how humor helps him cope. Frank emphasized the importance of starting conversations about suicide, noting that one person dies by suicide every 40 seconds globally. He highlighted the need for empathy and intervention to prevent suicides, sharing stories of how his talks have helped individuals. Frank aims to save a life a day through his work.

For the transcript and full story go to: https://www.drmanonbolliger.com/frank-king

Highlights from today's episode include:

For some people, suicide is always an option their brain offers, even for small problems (e.g., car breaks down: "fix it / buy a new one / kill myself"). Naming it ("chronic suicidal ideation") helps people realize they're not freaks and not alone, which can be profoundly relieving and life-changing.

Suicide often results from a cascade of factors, like a car accident with many causes (nighttime, rain, slick road, etc.). A simple intervention—someone asking, "Are you okay?" or showing they care—can interrupt that cascade and literally save a life (e.g., Kevin Hines on the Golden Gate Bridge).

You highlight that in contexts like MAID in Canada, people are often met with serious validation of ending life but not always offered a gap—humor, caring connection, or alternative ways of seeing their situation.

ABOUT FRANK KING:

Frank King, Suicide Prevention Speaker, writer for The Tonight Show for 20 years, speaker and comedian for 39.

His speaking is informed by his lifetime of Depression and Suicidality and coming close enough to ending his life that he can tell you what the barrel of his gun tastes like.

Turning that long dark journey of the soul into 13 TEDx Talks, sharing his lifesaving insights with corporations, and associations.

He's shared the stage with comedians, Jeff Foxworthy, Adam Sandler, Jerry Seinfeld, Dr. Ken Jung, Ellen DeGeneres, Dennis Miller, and Bill Hicks, as well as entertainers, Lou Rawls, The Beach Boys, Randy Travis, and Nancy Wilson.

On top of all of that, he has survived 2 aortic valve replacements, a double bypass, a heart attack, and losing to a puppet on the original Star Search and has lived to joke about it all.

Core purpose/passion: To save a life a day.

In this episode of The Healers Café, Manon Bolliger, speaks to Kristine, a clinical hypnotherapist and CEO of Journeys to Heal Inc., and shares her journey from accounting to hypnotherapy. Kristine emphasized the importance of addressing subconscious programming, using techniques like hypnotherapy, breathwork, and NLP to help clients reconnect with their inner wisdom.

For the transcript and full story go to: https://www.drmanonbolliger.com/kristine-ovsepian

Highlights from today's episode include:

Kristine explains that hypnotherapy works by accessing the subconscious/unconscious (about 88% of our programming) and releasing the root stories, memories, and emotions, rather than just putting a "band-aid" on stress, anxiety, panic, or depression.

Kristine says you must reprogram negative childhood conditioning. Much of the "I'm not good enough / I can't" programming comes from childhood voices (often parents, teachers, bullies). The mind can be reprogrammed, like uninstalling and installing apps: we can replace limiting beliefs with empowering ones through positive suggestions and hypnotherapy.

Manon agrees Don't wait for collapse—honor misalignment early. You highlight that when what we're doing doesn't feel aligned, we can either wait until the body and mind break down (as in Kristine's story) or we can listen earlier, notice that "this isn't right," and start actively exploring what truly brings joy and purpose.

ABOUT KRISTINE OVSEPIAN:

As a clinical hypnotherapist with a Master's in Psychology, blending science and spirit to support deep healing and transformation. Through hypnotherapy, breathwork, past life regression, quantum healing, NLP, EFT, and manifestation coaching, I help others reconnect with their inner wisdom and divine power.

In this episode of The Healers Café, Manon Bolliger and Dr William Kalatsky continue their discussion on holistic healing, focusing on Manon's partner Tony's chronic pain and emotional stress. Tony has been suffering from neuralgia pain since a shingles outbreak two years ago, which has been exacerbated by family conflicts and societal pressures.

For the transcript and full story go to: https://www.drmanonbolliger.com/william-kalatsky2

Highlights from today's episode include:

• Dr. William explains Emotions create measurable physical effects, so clearing emotions can ease physical pain.
• Dr William describes how changing your inner "frequency" (beliefs and default emotions) gives you more freedom and choice.
• Manon shares that William helped clear her mind and had a peaceful impact on her. Manon and William discuss the importance of gratitude and how it can positively impact one's life.

ABOUT DR WILLIAM KALATSKY:

Dr. William Kalatsky is a pioneer in the field of consciousness and emotional healing. With decades of experience in chiropractic care, meditation, and energy work, he developed Field of Consciousness Healing, a method that helps people release trauma, dissolve limiting patterns, and step into new levels of clarity and freedom.

At the heart of his work is a simple yet profound truth: emotions are frequencies stored in the body and field of consciousness. When unresolved, they continue to shape our thoughts, relationships, and health. Dr. William's method guides people to identify these patterns, clear the frequency of trauma, and install new emotional codes of peace, gratitude, and empowerment.

He is the author of The Intuition Method, which offers practical tools to strengthen intuition, rewire subconscious patterns, and manifest aligned outcomes. His sessions and workshops have helped clients from all walks of life—professionals, entrepreneurs, and trauma survivors—experience rapid transformation. Many report that painful stories can be remembered without emotional charge after just one session.

Dr. William's work bridges science and spirituality. Collaborations with institutions such as the University of Miami explore how brainwaves, HRV, and biometrics validate what thousands have experienced firsthand: when the field of consciousness is cleared, the mind and body reorganize into health, resilience, and creativity.

Whether speaking on stage, leading group healings, or working one-on-one, Dr. William brings clarity, compassion, and a deep commitment to human potential. His mission is to show that freedom from trauma is possible—not in years of struggle, but often in moments of breakthrough.

Core purpose/passion: My purpose is to help people free themselves from trauma by clearing the specific frequencies that keep old pain alive. This work is always evolving. Years ago, I was clearing the frequencies of migraine headaches in hospitals in England. That led me to discover that unresolved emotions were behind the pain. Each realization has taken me deeper, and I don't know where the next evolution will lead. What I do know is that when people release trauma and move into peace, joy, or love, it shifts not only their life but the frequency of the entire planet.
