“The system is geared for wellbeing. When given the right conditions, we naturally move toward it.” What if true healing isn’t found by reliving the past, but by reconnecting with the unshakable support that’s been holding you all along? In this episode of Soul Talk, I sit down with internationally acclaimed movement and breathing specialist Betsy Polatin for a deeply transformative exploration of trauma, embodiment, and the body’s innate capacity to heal. Betsy, celebrated author of Humanual: An Epic Journey to Your Expanded Self, has spent decades guiding performers,...

“Strength without allowing support often becomes self-abandonment.” Have you ever found yourself being the one everyone leans on, the strong one, the steady one, the one who always shows up? You’re the rock, the caretaker, the leader. But beneath the surface, there’s a quiet ache. A deep fatigue. A part of you is wondering, “When is it my turn to be held?” In this episode of Soul Talk, I open up about the hidden cost of strength. From my early years as the son of a healer and spiritual leader, to the emotional weight I carried as a child, I share how becoming the...

“Be with awareness. Let thought and emotion come and go. Don’t fight or follow. That’s how you find freedom.” What if true freedom isn’t about controlling your mind, but remembering the awareness that’s always been there? In today’s episode of Soul Talk, I sit down with beloved Tibetan meditation master and best-selling author Yongey Mingyur Rinpoche for a soul-stirring conversation on inner peace, joy, and transformation, even in the midst of life’s greatest storms. Born into a lineage of Tibetan masters, Mingyur Rinpoche has spent decades teaching the power of awareness and...

“You don’t sabotage because you’re afraid to fail. You sabotage because you’re afraid of how powerful you truly are.” Have you ever noticed how things finally start going well — you're in a loving relationship, making more money, feeling happier — and out of nowhere… you pull back? You overthink. You pick a fight. You overspend. You sabotage. But here's the truth: Self-sabotage is not failure — it’s protection. It’s not that you’re broken. It’s that a part of you is trying to keep you safe, even if that means holding you back from everything you’ve prayed for. In...

“When you heal yourself, it is a spiritual experience.” What if healing isn’t something outside of you, but a remembering of what’s already within? In today’s episode of Soul Talk, I sit down with Donna Eden, world-renowned teacher, energy medicine pioneer, and living example of what’s possible when we trust the body’s wisdom. At 16, Donna was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. By her twenties, doctors told her to “get her affairs in order.” But instead of giving up, she turned inward and activated a healing intelligence that transformed her life forever. In this...

“Your soul doesn’t run on human time. It runs on sacred time.” What if the pressure you feel to “hurry up” and have it all figured out… is based on a lie? In this episode of Soul Talk, I dive into one of the most painful illusions we’ve been taught: the belief that we’re behind in life. Whether it’s love, purpose, abundance, or healing, many of us are carrying a quiet grief. Grieving the timeline we thought we should be on. The milestones we expected to hit by now. The version of life our ego mapped out, but our soul never signed off on. We compare ourselves to others. We...

"Asking a man with no arms to hold you, that’s what it’s like to expect love from someone who doesn’t know how." What if the greatest block to love… isn’t your past, but the story you’ve been told about what love is supposed to be? In this raw and revelatory episode of Soul Talk, I sit down with Arielle Ford—bestselling author and spiritual teacher—for a soul-stirring conversation about what it really means to love and be loved. Together, we peel back the illusions that keep so many of us stuck in cycles of pain, confusion, or longing. From the myth that...

"Just because it feels intense does not mean it's love. Sometimes it’s simply your wounds shaking hands." What if the intense connection you keep chasing… isn’t actually love? In this powerful episode of SoulTalk, I dive deep into the difference between true, soul-aligned love — and trauma bonding disguised as passion. So many of us have been conditioned to equate emotional chaos with chemistry. But real love? It doesn’t spike your anxiety. It soothes it. I break down how early wounds shape our patterns in relationships, why we confuse familiarity with fate, and how the...

“You can evolve your destiny. That’s why we study astrology, to take the high road of your nature.” What if the reason you're stuck, frustrated, or forcing life… isn’t because something’s wrong with you — but because you’re out of alignment with your soul’s true design? In this powerful episode of Soul Talk, I’m joined by renowned astrologer, psychotherapist, and spiritual teacher Debra Silverman, author of I Don’t Believe in Astrology. Together, we explore how astrology isn’t about superstition or prediction — it’s about gaining deep...

"You must resist the temptation to go back and to cling to what you know because it's comfortable". What do you do when nothing makes sense anymore, when you’ve let go of who you were but haven’t yet become who you’re meant to be? In this powerful episode of Soul Talk, I explore the void, that sacred, often painful space between life chapters where transformation is quietly unfolding. Maybe you feel stuck, tired, uninspired, or disconnected. You're not broken. You're not lost. You're simply in the space between stories. I’ll guide you through how to embrace the unknown, trust the...
info_outline"We are living in. Perhaps this is the greatest time to be alive. The cosmic alarm clock is ringing, and you and I have incarnated at this time in human history to participate in the awakening of the consciousness of humanity. You are a co-creator. You are part of the field that is dreaming the future into being."
What if AI isn’t something to fear… but a mirror reflecting the deepest parts of who we are?
In this episode of SoulTalk, we dive into the powerful intersection of artificial intelligence and human consciousness, not from a place of fear, but from a place of possibility. This is a call to remember who you truly are and step into your sacred role as a co-creator of the future. AI isn’t just a tool, it’s a reflection of the consciousness behind it.
I explore how AI can illuminate your hidden shadows, awaken untapped creativity, and inspire you to live with more soul, more presence, and more purpose. This is your invitation to stay awake, stay human, and lead with love in the face of rapid change.
Tune in to discover how technology, when used with intention, can elevate your well-being, deepen your creativity, and support a more compassionate, awakened humanity.
