How do you build trust in a world that often feels divided? In this episode of Embodied, I chat with Bhaskar Goswami, a transformation mentor, about trust, intuition, and belonging.

Bhaskar’s journey takes him from his yogic roots in Assam, India, through an international engineering career, and ultimately into transformational coaching. He shares how reclaiming personal agency can ease anxiety and foster authenticity.

"What unites is true, and what divides is not." This simple yet powerful statement from Bhaskar resonated deeply with me and set the tone for our conversation.

In our hour-long conversation, we explore:

• Trusting your intuition: How listening to your inner wisdom can guide decision-making and foster self-confidence.
• The need to belong: Why we seek connection and how shifting our mindset can empower us.
• Claiming personal power: The role of ownership and responsibility in overcoming anxiety and uncertainty.
• Discerning truth: Practical strategies for staying...

How do you trust life when it takes you in unexpected directions? In this episode of Embodied, I sit down with Nick Matheson, leadership coach and business strategist, to explore how we can find clarity, strength, and growth in life’s most challenging moments.

Nick’s story is one of transformation. He began his career in healthcare, focusing on pain management, but personal challenges—including his daughter’s serious illness and his cancer diagnosis—led him to rethink his life and priorities. Now, as a leadership coach, he helps others align with their values and create lives they love.

In our hour-and-forty-five-minute conversation, we discuss:

• Letting go of control: How Nick learned to release rigid ideas of success and embrace life’s twists and turns.
• Turning challenges into growth: Why difficult times can lead to powerful personal breakthroughs.
• The strength in vulnerability: How being open and honest about struggles can deepen...

How do we embrace creativity as a divine force, even when it challenges our limits? In this episode of Embodied, I had the joy of speaking with Kristin Hanggi—Tony-nominated director, writer, and author of God, Sex, and Musical Theater. Kristin's work spans Broadway, film, and beyond, exploring themes of faith, identity, and authenticity. Together, we uncovered the sacred, mystical nature of the creative process.

Kristin shared how she views creativity as a living, divine energy flowing through her, requiring trust, surrender, and the courage to let go of control. She described how this approach has shaped her as an artist and as a person navigating life’s uncertainties.

The Mystical Nature of Creativity:

In our hour-long conversation, we explored:

• How trusting the creative process is like being ‘done by life,’ as Wayne Dyer famously said.
• The interplay between creativity and community, where collective visions come alive through collaboration.
• Why...

How do we learn to trust our gifts when the world feels chaotic and overwhelming? In this episode of Embodied, I spoke with Sarah Renee, a renowned medium and spiritual transformation coach, about the profound journey of navigating trust, healing, and divine guidance. With over 50,000 readings worldwide, Sarah shares her powerful story of embracing her spiritual gifts after years of doubt, trauma, and healing.

In our hour-long conversation, Sarah and I explored:

• Lessons from Sarah’s connection with Dr. Wayne Dyer, who continues to guide her from the spirit realm.
• The role of divine mentorship in navigating life’s most difficult moments.
• How life’s challenges prepare us for our spiritual purpose.
• Why trust is a daily practice and not a perfect state.
• How to create supportive spiritual containers for growth and awakening.

Sarah’s relationship with Dr. Dyer was particularly moving. She shared:

"I feel like he still is working, like just taking care of...

How do we begin to trust ourselves when life demands we suppress our emotions? This question is at the heart of my conversation with Mike Sears, a Halifax Fire Captain, peer support advocate, and founder of Fight4Life. A firefighter for over two decades, Mike shares his journey of reconnecting with his body after emotional numbness, offering profound lessons in trust, healing, and transformation.

On Embodied, Mike talks about navigating the intense demands of firefighting, where vulnerability often takes a backseat to survival. After a breaking point left him physically and emotionally drained, he attended the BC Firefighter Resiliency Program, where he processed years of stored trauma and rediscovered what he calls a sense of “body calm.”

In our conversation, we explore:

• How suppressed emotions manifest in the body as physical symptoms.
• The courage it takes to step back and prioritize healing.
• Why vulnerability can be a profound strength, even in high-stakes...

We all have moments that push us to open up to life in ways we never expected—moments that call us to trust, even when it feels impossible. This season of Embodied is all about that powerful kind of trust and the profound transformations it can lead to.

In this episode, I sit down with my dear friend Estelle Thomson, a yoga teacher, artist, and educator whose work blends embodiment, expressive arts, and psychology. 

Estelle shares how the loss of her son Tommy became a profound journey into healing, leading her to a deeper connection with life and purpose.

During our conversation, Estelle reflects, “How can I let grief move through me and widen me and expand me? … How can I let my karma be my dharma? This was given to me, so how can I carry it?”

Estelle’s words remind us that trust, healing, and self-love are deeply embodied experiences, and that listening to our bodies is a powerful act of self-compassion.

Tune in to this heartfelt episode,...

We’ve all faced moments that force us to confront our vulnerability—moments that challenge us to embrace our sensitivity, our uncertainty, and our need to trust in something larger than ourselves. This episode marks the beginning of Season 3 of Embodied, where I’ll dive into the transformative power of trust through deep conversations with thought leaders, creatives, and spiritual guides.

In this episode, I have the pleasure of speaking with Prune Harris, an energy expert, educator, and bestselling author of Your Radiant Soul. Prune has the rare ability to see energy from birth, and this gift has shaped her life.
