15: Dose of DHC.
Dead Hearts Club
Today with this sweet, short episode, we're giving you just a Dose of DHC: sharing real-time examples from our own lives of how we're doing life the DHC way, in the moment. We're also inviting you to share your own stories of DHC living with us, because ultimately, Dead Hearts Club is about the ways our vulnerability creates connection, when it would be easier to just not do the hard thing, share the tender truth, and be seen in all that raw, unguarded glory.

14: Soulmates, Love and Attachment.
Dead Hearts Club
In this episode, we’re upending some of the more commonly-accepted definitions of soulmates — especially in the context of a rom-com culture that tells us how soul connections should behave — because sometimes, love for and attachment to those people can really stir the pot in some confusing ways.

13: The gentle art of revealing our hearts.
Dead Hearts Club
At its core, this episode is about the bedrock Dead Hearts Club was founded on: challenging ourselves to stay so heart open that you kinda feel like you’re gonna die — and doing it in a way that holds impeccable individual (and group) boundaries, taking a sh*t ton of personal responsibility, and allowing ourselves to be held in our unscripted, wildly unpredictable humanity and hearts.

12: Emotional Sobriety with Jessamyn Turgesen.
Dead Hearts Club
In this episode, we redefine “safety” from a trauma-informed lens, and get raw about how shame occupies the space where our inner agency might otherwise call us forward when we are in deep, primal suffering. We’re talking about how the wisdom of our bodies can communicate what we need to midwife ourselves through the birthing of who we might be beneath our habits of hiding.

11: The Intuition Episode.
Dead Hearts Club
Intuition is, for many of us, an ephemeral thing. It speaks to us in a language only we understand, and its gifts are the hidden jewels of our lives -- guiding us toward or away from experiences and people that can alter the entire trajectory of our journey.

10: You're gonna have to face it, you're addicted to spiritual self-help.
Dead Hearts Club
Is it possible to be in a co-dependent relationship with healing? How about a self-destructive relationship with "transformation"? If you sometimes find yourself poking around inside yourself, in search of the next thing to "fix," this episode is for you.

09: Two girls, two mics, one camel toe.
Dead Hearts Club
As we plan which topics to bring you each week, we do a little something we call Heart Storm: we get together, hash it out, talk for a long-ass time, and a theme emerges. If you’re just tuning in, you might be wondering what DHC means. This week, Bria and I sit down and just hit record — no theme, no topic, just two girls, two mics and (as you’ll discover), one very prominent camel toe.

08: Cultivating Play.
Dead Hearts Club
In this episode, we’re talking about what bridges we’ve built from self-consciousness into a more open kind of self-expression, how it’s a constantly-evolving process, and how play shows up in our individual lives. This is a thoughtful exploration of how levity and joy might actually be our innate, foundational state of being — and how our inner Wounded Child can help us access our inner Wonder Child — that part of us that is authentic, creative, trusting and spontaneous.

07: This is Healing
Dead Hearts Club
In this episode, we explore the question: Who Are We Really? How do we touch the core essence of Self without bypassing all the human reality? How do you know which is the most reliable captain for your healing ship at any given time? What version of ourselves are we reaching for as our personal definition of "healing"? Who (or what) in us carries us toward an experience of healing that tells healing is taking root?

06: Liberating The Light With Human Design
Dead Hearts Club
Andrea Berg is a Leadership Coach, Teacher and Speaker that sparks transformation through Human Design and her 7 Life Elements. She teaches high achievers to become intentional and confident. Andrea says that your ability to follow your inner compass is directly related to how deeply you know yourself.
info_outlineSurpriiiiise! This is our last episode of Season 1, and we’re rounding it out with a conversation about real-time, embodied emotional presence, and how we intentionally honor Self and Other — without self-sacrificing — when the lines that run between our hearts and the ones we love get blurry. We’re talking about the vulnerability that rushes to the forefront when strong emotion is present, and how we create a healthy adult egoic experience in relating with others. Can we notice our patterns of opening and closing, revealing and self-protecting, even when the moment — or the ones around us — seem to be asking for something different…?
At its core, this episode is about the bedrock Dead Hearts Club was founded on: challenging ourselves to stay so heart open that you kinda feel like you’re gonna die — and doing it in a way that holds impeccable individual (and group) boundaries, taking a sh*t ton of personal responsibility, and allowing ourselves to be held in our unscripted, wildly unpredictable humanity and hearts. Bria is sharing a recent experience on a trip with a group of friends where she found herself asking, “What would the DHC way of doing this be?”
What I really loved about this conversation was the way we were able to slow the pace and access the body-wisdom that it so unbelievably central to our personal practice of DHC, and how this embodied way of consistently revealing our hearts is the vulnerability-in-action guiding our whole process here on this podcast.
And then we wrap up the episode (and the season) with some bone-deep, love-drenched (classic Morgan and Bria) reflection on what’s changed for us since Dead Hearts Club began.
