Dr. Gladys McGarey is recognized as a pioneer for the convergence of allopathic and holistic medicine and is internationally known as the Mother of Holistic Medicine. Following a career in family practice for nearly eighty years, she now has a life consulting practice. After graduating from medical school, Dr. McGarey became the only woman intern at Deaconess Hospital in Philadelphia.  In 1978, she co-founded the American Holistic Medical Association with the goal of uniting licensed physicians who practiced medicine and helped to transform conventional healthcare into a more holistic model. She was the first medical doctor to utilize acupuncture in the U. S. and trained other physicians to use it.

She founded the Gladys Taylor McGarey Foundation in 1989 to bridge the gap between holistic and traditional medicine and helped to expand the knowledge and application of holistic principles through scientific research and education. Dr. McGarey also co-founded the Academy of Parapsychology and Medicine, founded The International Academy of Clinical Hypnosis, and was a founding diplomat of the Arizona Board of Homeopathic and Integrated Medicine Examiners.

What if the worst day of your life was secretly preparing you for your greatest purpose?

Hal Elrod didn’t plan on facing death—let alone more than once. After surviving a catastrophic accident and later battling life-threatening illness, he was forced to confront questions most people avoid. Why do some people break under pressure while others awaken? Why does suffering sometimes strip away fear instead of amplifying it? And what actually changes when you stare mortality in the face?

In this conversation, Hal draws from his near-death experience, recovery journey, and radical mindset shifts to reframe adversity as initiation rather than punishment. As humanity moves through a profound shift in consciousness, this discussion challenges the idea that pain is random—offering a grounded, empowering re-examination of resilience, purpose, and what it truly means to choose how you live.

What if the stars were more than just distant specks of light? What if they whispered the stories of our souls, mapping out the twists and turns of our journey before we even took our first breath? On today’s episode, we welcome Vish Chatterji, a Vedic Astrologer, engineer, and executive coach, who takes us beyond the cocktail party banter of sun signs and horoscopes into the ancient and deeply spiritual science of Jyotish.Unlike Western astrology, which often focuses on personality and psychology, Vedic Astrology—or Jyotish—serves as a cosmic blueprint for the soul. It is not merely a tool to predict our future, but a guide to understanding the karmic imprints we bring into this life.

As Vish Chatterji explains, “The Vedic astrology chart is basically a map of karmas that you will face in this lifetime based on whatever you've done in previous lifetimes.” In other words, our cosmic fingerprint reveals where we have been and how we can align with our highest potential.But let’s take a step back. How did a man trained in the rigor of engineering and corporate leadership end up delving into the mystical world of planetary influence? As Vish tells it, skepticism was his first reaction. He approached astrology as any good engineer would: by testing it. Over time, as he mapped planetary influences to real-life events with startling accuracy, he realized that this ancient science had something modern logic could not easily explain. It wasn’t about superstition—it was about patterns, energy, and the unseen currents that shape our lives.Through the lens of Vedic Astrology, everything is a dance of cosmic forces. Planets are not just celestial bodies; they are energetic archetypes shaping our experiences. Mars, with its fiery aggression, influences our drive and conflicts. Venus, the planet of love and beauty, governs relationships and harmony.
