The Root Element Project

Love, not technique, is the real anchor behind intuitive healing - and Jen Goodwin proves it by showing how body wisdom, angelic guidance, and yoga can help you release what is not yours and come back to yourself.

Jen, founder of Jenuine Connections, shares the raw story behind her work with angel yoga, energy healing, and spiritual guidance. From a childhood illness that forced her to listen deeply to her body, to a life-altering car accident that reshaped her understanding of presence, she explains how pain became the doorway to intuition, resilience, and a radically different relationship with healing.

You’ll discover:

• Why Jen sees herself as a "secretary" for the messages coming through
• How the body can reveal what the mind can’t
• The difference between intuition, imagination, and fear
• Why spiritual growth is not always bright, positive, or comfortable
• How "cord cutting" really works when you stop leaking energy into old stories
• Why angel yoga blends breath, movement, and frequency instead of forcing poses
• Practical ways to use breath, color, sound, and simple body checks to rebuild trust in yourself

Jen also opens up about imposter syndrome, skepticism from family, and the moment she realized she was picking up other people’s energy rather than her own. She and Josh+ get into the hidden costs of carrying pain, why some truths feel relieving even when they sting, and how to work with the nervous system instead of overriding it.

If you feel stuck in a dark night, disconnected from your intuition, or exhausted by trying to "fix" yourself, this conversation offers a gentler path forward. It’s an invitation to stop forcing healing and start listening for the frequency that is already yours.

Can CBD, sound healing, and nursing science actually work together? Alice, a registered nurse and founder of Alice CBD, makes the case that healing is often less about choosing sides and more about filling in the gaps.

What starts as a conversation about cannabinoids quickly turns into a much bigger look at the endocannabinoid system, chronic illness, and why so many people are still getting the basics of cannabis wrong. Alice shares how her own MS diagnosis changed everything, why her trip to a cannabis research conference in Colorado was a turning point, and how she now helps people navigate dosage, quality, drug interactions, and realistic expectations without the hype.

We break down:

• The difference between hemp, CBD, THC, and other cannabinoids
• Why product quality, COAs, and milligram strength matter more than most people realize
• How CBD can fit alongside conventional care, including support for anxiety, sleep, chemo side effects, and more
• What parents should know before considering CBD for children
• Why some people respond better to CBG, topicals, tinctures, or suppositories depending on their goals

Alice also opens up about the sound healing practices that became deeply personal to her, from singing bowls and gongs to the surprising sensory experiences people report during sound baths. She shares stories of clients who left sessions lighter, calmer, and more able to face what was waiting for them at home.

If you have ever felt overwhelmed by conflicting health advice, skeptical about holistic medicine, or curious about what a nurse with firsthand experience thinks about cannabis and healing, this episode is for you. Alice brings both clinical perspective and lived experience, making a strong case for listening to your body, asking better questions, and staying open to what actually helps.

Perfect for anyone exploring CBD, holistic wellness, nervous system regulation, or the messy, human reality of healing.

Guest credibility:

Alice is a registered nurse and the founder of aliceCBD in Joplin, Missouri. She brings clinical experience, cannabis education, and firsthand insight from living with multiple sclerosis and helping others navigate cannabinoid-based wellness.

Yoga is not a workout, Reiki is not magic, and your mind is probably not as busy as you think — your life is. Josh Coke sits down with Laken Zimmerman, founder of Joy Punk Reiki and Yoga in Joplin, Missouri, for a grounded conversation about healing, nervous system regulation, and why the first step toward feeling better is often just slowing down. Laken shares the unlikely path that led her from restaurant work and media gigs into holistic care, including the earthship home and first yoga class that changed everything. She also breaks down how a decade of practice, a COVID-era certification push, and a deep curiosity about the body led her to build Joy Punk, a business centered on accessible mind-body awareness rather than perfect poses. You’ll discover:

• Why yoga is really a “work-in” and how breath, movement, and meditation support greater self-awareness
• What Reiki actually feels like in plain language, from chakra work to grounding, smudging, and intentional stillness
• How Laken blends sound healing, crystals, pendulums, and hypnotherapy into sessions that are tailored to each client
• Why breathwork activates the vagus nerve and helps shift the body out of survival mode
• How practices like dream journaling, gratitude, and simple touch anchors can help integrate healing long after a session ends

Josh and Laken also unpack common misconceptions about energy work, the role of discernment in the wellness world, and how to tell the difference between numbness and true regulation. Laken gets personal about the shingles experience that pushed her toward natural healing, the surprising joy she feels when others find relief, and the self-care boundaries that keep her grounded as an empath and practitioner. This conversation is for anyone who feels disconnected, overwhelmed, skeptical, or simply curious about what healing can look like without perfection or performance. If you’ve been looking for a practical, encouraging entry point into yoga, Reiki, breathwork, or conscious living, this episode offers both the philosophy and the first step. Laken is the founder of Joy Punk Reiki and Yoga and also shares beginner-friendly resources through her published books on meditation and chakra healing. If you want a reminder that your body matters, your joy matters, and healing can be both playful and profound, this one belongs on your queue.
