On this episode, Dre sits down with actor, author, conscious leader and soul brother, Dondre Whitfield to circle around listening as an act of love, the dance between divine feminine and masculine energies, and the distinction between male vs. man. Despite their opposing appearances and backgrounds, Dre and Dondre first recognized each other as “tribe” when they met at the High School of Performing Arts. It was here where empathy was learned and forged through listening to one another’s struggles, discovering the universality of pain. They reflect on how...

He never set out to do this work. But the messages kept coming. Loud. Specific. Unshakable.

Most birthday celebrations are filled with gifts, cake, and casual conversation. But what if the real gift was presence—the kind that invites everyone to connect in a deep, meaningful way? In this episode, Dre and Em are joined by Emily’s best friend, David Perlman, who shares what it was like to celebrate his birthday in a completely different way: by sitting in circle. Instead of the usual dinner and side conversations, the group dropped into something sacred—an intentional space for reflection, vulnerability, and connection. David reflects on how simply creating...

In this episode, Dre welcomes love coach and author Francesca Hogi (How to Find True Love) for a conversation about self-worth, connection, and what it really means to flirt with life. Francesca redefines flirting as a way of engaging with the world—not rooted in romance, but in presence. At its core, flirting is about making others feel seen and acknowledged, creating space for possibility, chemistry, and soul-level connection. They explore how dating can become a practice of self-love, how emotional resilience opens the door to intimacy, and how we can begin to shift from “being...

Living with hearing loss since childhood, Jen learned to listen with her whole body—a practice that’s become her superpower in helping others feel truly seen. Together, she and Dre unpack the art of the apology, the radical act of claiming joy without reason, and the healing that happens when we stop minimizing our worth. From giving yourself a medal for the smallest wins to speaking your...

What begins as an exploration of Dre’s chart (a double Capricorn with a Pisces sun, a powerful Saturn-Pluto imprint, and a rare Yod of destiny) unfolds into something deeper: a soul-mirroring dialogue about purpose, pain, and the poetry of being understood. Because sometimes the most sacred love language isn’t touch—it’s resonance. Together, Dre and Debra explore astrology not as prediction, but as ancient...
