Today on Can’t Be Contained, I am beyond thrilled to welcome the legendary Paul Chek! Paul is the founder of the CHEK Institute, a pioneer in holistic health, a walking encyclopedia of esoteric wisdom, and a true embodiment of living freely, mind, body, and spirit. In this episode, we dive deep into what it actually means to live an integrated, purpose-driven life, spirit gym included!

Paul unpacks his wild and winding journey from dropping out of school in the ninth grade to leading the US Army boxing team, to building a transformative, global institution with over 63,000 students. We talk everything from unsuspecting small-town connections and his so-called “spiritual Disneyland” home, to the profound intersection of emotional, physical, and spiritual health.

Paul shares his unique philosophy on mind-body connection, weaving together wisdom from numerology, tarot, shamanism, and holistic psychology. He drops absolute gold on transmuting trauma, heart-centered spiritual practices, the dance between ego and soul, and why having a dream bigger than yourself is everything. We’ll also chat about his new Spirit Gym, his years working with leaders like Tony Robbins, and how to avoid the pitfalls of average living.

 

Within Paul’s infinite wisdom, you’ll hear: 

➤ How to alchemize pain and trauma into power

➤ The role of breathwork, movement, and spiritual discipline in healing 

➤ Mindset tools for dissolving self-doubt, perfectionism, and “watchdogs” within 

➤ What it really takes to lead a world-changing movement, and why spiritual courage is non-negotiable

➤ The dangers of staying average, and the art of choosing levity, growth, and light


If you’re ready to explore the heart-led path of true holistic wellness, personal sovereignty, and unleashing your limitless potential—this episode delivers. Whether you’re a seeker, a leader, or simply ready to break out of the constraints holding you back, Paul’s no-BS approach to soul, science, and success absolutely can’t be contained.

Join us for a conversation that will ignite your spirit, challenge your limits, and get you thinking bigger—about yourself, your dreams, and the world around you.
