Exploring life, death, consciousness and what it all means
A Princeton-trained PhD researcher walked away from academia's pinnacle because the biggest questions weren't being asked. What she found wasn't in a lab. It was in the intuitive gifts her field trained her to dismiss. Victoria Shaw spent years at Columbia and Princeton before realizing even brilliant minds don't reason toward truth—they find facts that fit their beliefs. The science on psychic phenomena is some of the most replicable data out there. We've just been taught it doesn't count. This conversation changed how I see intuition. Not as soft or unreliable, but as our primary instrument.

Spirit doesn’t shout. It whispers through your rage, your grief, and the signs you’ve been brushing off. In this conversation, Aycee Brown and I get real about why your anger might actually be your fastest connection to your guides, why medication isn’t a spiritual failure, and why you can’t manifest your way out of systemic oppression. If you’re tired of bypassing your humanness in the name of being “light,” this one’s for you.

If you've ever walked into a room and felt the tension before anyone spoke, or made a decision you knew was right but couldn’t logically explain, you already know what we’re talking about. For years, I kept my own spiritual side locked away, afraid it didn’t belong in the professional world. Michele Phillips not only lived that split—she figured out how to heal it. In this conversation, we get into the concrete science behind your energy, why your “gut” is more reliable than your resume, and the simple shift that turns a room of skeptics into believers. No fluff, just the real framework for becoming the boss of your own energy.

Lorena Savvedra Smith talks about something most of us feel but can’t name: soul dislocation. That spiraling, fragmented feeling after a hard conversation. The numbness when the world feels like too much. Her ancestors had a name for it, and a way back. In this conversation, we explore why our rush to “heal” with ancient practices might be causing more harm, and how true healing asks us to stop running from nature’s power—and run toward it.

All trauma is spiritual trauma. It severs the impulse to reach for wonder, connection, and meaning—the very essence of our soul. In this episode, Dr. Hillary McBride, a leading voice on embodiment and spiritual trauma, redefines how we understand healing. We explore the holes trauma leaves in our souls, why the body is the portal back to our spirituality, and a simple yet profound practice (heart rate sensing) that can unlock your intuition and reconnect you to yourself. This is a conversation about the space between life and death, and the path back to who you really are.

Grief hit me like a tidal wave, even with all my knowledge of the spirit world. This week, I’m talking with Samantha Rose, a ghostwriter for a famous medium, who lost her mother to suicide. She shares how she used her professional skills to reconnect with her mom through dreams and automatic writing, finding a way to forgive her and, ultimately, herself. This is a powerful conversation about the masks we wear, the courage to ask for help, and the profound realization that love doesn't end when a life does.

Today, I’m talking with Jon Rosemberg. He spent decades climbing the corporate ladder, closing massive deals, and achieving everything we’re told will make us happy.

I always thought manifesting was about thinking, visualizing, and waiting. My talk with Colette Baron-Reid turned that idea on its head. She showed me that the ancient, physical act of drawing is the missing neurological link between a spiritual desire and tangible reality. We discuss why digital vision boards fall short, how she achieved everything on her boards only after letting go, and the simple doodling practice that rewires your brain to co-create with the universe.
