Journey to Well

Ready to trade brittle resolutions for change that actually sticks? We sat down with Dr. Karen Parker to unpack human design as an instruction manual for life—one that teaches you how you are, not what you are. Instead of forcing habits on January 1, we explore timing, identity, and the human design new year as a better container for intention and growth.

We dig into strategy and authority in plain language. Dr Karen shows how asking what you truly want—and why—exposes band-aid goals that drain you and brings the real dream into view. From there, identity work becomes the engine: becoming the person with enough self-worth, capacity, and trust to hold the vision while the how unfolds through aligned opportunities.

We go beyond the chart to include ancestry, epigenetics, and lived experience, revealing how inherited patterns and unmet needs shape the story you tell yourself. Dr Karen shares her research demonstrating that disempowering narratives lower IgA—an immune marker—while creatively rewriting the same story restores immune function toward baseline. Language matters. The throat center’s role in manifestation reminds us that words structure reality, retrain the nervous system, and prime the brain to notice the next right step.

If you’re curious about human design for parenting, creativity, or sustainable wellness—or you’ve felt boxed in by labels—this conversation will catalyze a more fluid, body-led approach to decisions, goals, and change. Listen, subscribe, and leave a review with the one choice you’re ready to test today.

Your period is not a riddle—it’s a roadmap. We sit down with acupuncturist and holistic educator Nicole Lange to decode what your cycle is saying about hormones, stress, and whole‑body health. Nicole blends evidence‑based Chinese medicine, modern science, and trauma‑informed care to show how nervous system safety is the foundation for steady cycles and better fertility outcomes.

We start with the basics most people never learn: what a healthy luteal phase looks like, why a single progesterone number can mislead, and how color, clots, and flooding point to stagnation, infection, or inflammation. From there, we dig into the stress connection. Cortisol and sex hormones share the same raw materials and receptors, so when your body is stuck in threat mode, cycles go off‑track and treatments struggle to land. Nicole offers a humane reset: build felt safety first, then add targeted testing and interventions only if needed.

This is not about quick hacks or supplement stacks. It’s about unsexy habits that compound—sleep scaffolding, predictable meals, boundaries that hold, micro‑practices that downshift your system. We explore gentle acupuncture for those who respond, alternatives for those who don’t, and a redefining of “adrenal fatigue” as a narrative that misses the real fix. Nicole also shares how perimenopause can shift ovulation timing and why that matters for IVF, IUI, and cycle planning. Her framework helps you advocate for your body with data you can feel: timing, flow quality, and stress load.

If you’re craving clarity without overwhelm, this conversation gives you a method to read your cycle, regulate your nervous system, and make smarter choices about testing, treatment, and timing. Subscribe, share with a friend who needs cycle validation, and leave a review to tell us one insight you’ll apply this month.

Forget the swinging watch. We go straight into the lived reality of burnout, broken sleep, and the quiet tug-of-war between what you want and what your body will allow. Garrett Wood—clinical hypnotherapist, board certified health and wellness coach, and founder of Gnosis Therapy—joins us to unpack how hypnotherapy restores the nervous system, reshapes memory, and turns grit from a struggle into a side effect of safety.

We explore why the most effective therapies leverage memory reconsolidation, how hypnosis differs from stage tricks, and what actually changes when you revisit a charged memory in a regulated state. The payoff is practical: fewer triggers, steadier energy, and decisions that feel easy because they match who you are becoming.

We also zoom out to the environment. Sensory thresholds—light, sound, scent, texture—can make or break executive function. If your world overwhelms your system, self-control drains fast. Garrett reframes “self-sabotage” as a protective part guarding immediate safety, not a flaw to fix. Through hypnotic work and tools like cognitive belief inventories, we surface hidden beliefs (I’m not enough, I’m not safe) and pair them with real, embodied evidence of worth and capability. That’s where identity-level change happens: not “I should be calm,” but “I am calm and confident.”

If you’re curious about hypnotherapy for sleep, stress, trauma, or that stubborn gap between goals and behavior, this conversation offers clear explanations, real stories, and next steps you can use. Listen, share it with someone who needs steady ground, and subscribe to get more grounded, practical conversations each week. If it resonated, leave a review—what belief are you ready to update?

Money can feel heavy when it’s just numbers. It gets lighter—and far more effective—when you weave in safety, values, and a clear definition of success. We sit down with holistic wealth coach Morgan Blackman to unpack how a strong “why” turns saving from a chore into a choice, why your nervous system is the most underrated financial tool you have, and how human design can help you make decisions you don’t regret.

Morgan shares her early wins—doubling her first $5,000 and later growing a $40,000 portfolio while paying off $30,000 in debt—and the mindset shifts that made it possible. We talk through practical starting points: building a buffer that actually calms you, tackling high-interest debt, and using a simple 24-hour pause to defuse sale-driven panic buys. Then we zoom out to the bigger picture: redefining wealth on your terms. Maybe a mortgage supports your life. Maybe long-term, low-cost stock investing plus mobility is the real dream. Either way, alignment beats comparison.

If this resonated, follow Morgan at morganblackman.com and on YouTube, then subscribe to The Wellth Letters. Like what you heard? Follow the show, share with a friend, and leave a review so more listeners can build wealth that feels true to them.

If you’ve ever felt “too aware” to take action, this conversation is your reset. We sit down with business coach Kristi Chaves to unpack how somatic awareness, emotional capacity & clean communication can transform both your bottom line and your daily life. Instead of chasing confidence, we explore how to feel fear, sadness, anger, and happiness in the body, let the energy move, and then make decisions from presence rather than from patterns.

Kristi's story begins at home with two entrepreneurial parents and a mother who pioneered leadership embodiment long before somatics was mainstream. That early immersion shaped her approach to coaching: honor your truth, speak it so others can hear it, and build a business that fits your real life. We dig into why scripts alone won’t fix sales, how tone and timing carry more weight than clever lines, and why digestible authenticity beats raw authenticity when relationships and results matter. The through-line is practical: when you stop looping in mental stories and attend to sensation, the next step becomes obvious.

We also examine happiness without the “I’ll be happy when” trap. By accepting reality—especially during loss—and letting go of brittle expectations, you create space for gratitude and steady action. Presence becomes a competitive advantage: you move despite fear, stay with a strategy long enough to see it work, and communicate in ways that build trust. 

If you’re ready to build a wealthy life on your terms—grounded in somatic wisdom, honest communication, and aligned strategy—this is your sign to begin. Listen, try the shake, and tell us what sensation is loud in your body today. If the episode resonates, follow the show, share it with a friend who needs it, and leave a quick review so more listeners can find these tools.
