  • #27: Becoming Who You Are Through Rooted Awakening With Kendall McCullough
    In this rich and introspective episode of The Mindform Podcast, host Frank Lawton is joined by Kendall McCullough, a spiritual life coach and the founder of Rooted Awakening Coaching. Kendall shares his deeply personal journey from a challenging early adulthood marked by mental health struggles and a Kundalini awakening, to the development of a grounded and spiritually integrated coaching practice. Drawing heavily on Jungian psychology, Kendall outlines his four-part model of change—Awakening, Individuation, Grounding, and Transformation—which reflects both his personal evolution and the framework he now offers his clients. Together, Frank and Kendall explore themes of inner child work, embodiment, the integration of ego and spirit, and the importance of grounding profound spiritual experiences in everyday life. They discuss the limitations of conventional therapy, the symbolic power of belief, and the role of direct experience in reshaping one’s map of reality. With candor and warmth, Kendall reflects on the risks of ungrounded awakening, the healing potential of compassion, and his ongoing pursuit of becoming who he truly is—both in his coaching work and personal life.

  • #23: Stoicism: Useful Toolkit or Holistic Worldview with Ralph Kurz
    In Episode 23 of The Mindform Podcast, Frank Lawton speaks with Ralph Kurz, Stoic mentor and mental trainer, about his journey into Stoicism and how it reshaped his worldview. They trace his path from reading Meditations to joining the College of Stoic Philosophers and facilitating discussions on virtue through the Virtues Project. Their conversation explores Stoicism beyond its popular image as a set of coping tools, focusing instead on its spiritual depth—particularly the concept of logos and the Stoic aim of aligning with nature through reason and virtue. Ralph shares how this philosophy informs not just thought, but action, performance, and identity. The episode also touches on the practical applications of Stoic ideas in coaching and mental training for athletes. Topics like flow, self-expression, and the paradox of detachment from outcomes are unpacked with clarity, revealing Stoicism as a dynamic framework for both personal development and meaningful living.
