What if your brain wasn’t your master, but your student? In this deeply moving and transformative episode of The Remarkable People Podcast, Kohila Sivas joins David Pasqualone to share her journey from a silent child struggling in a new country to a powerful advocate for mental sovereignty.

At just 12 years old, Kohila faced a darkness that led her to a suicide attempt. She opens up about the “seeds” planted in her mind by a difficult home life and the struggle to fit into a new culture. However, it was her survival that led to a paradigm shift: the realization that the brain can betray us with compelling lies, and that we have the power to write our own narrative.

25 March 2026, 9:00 pm - 50 minutes 7 secondsThe Rally for Minnesota: Mike Lindell on The SAVE America Act, $1M Fundraising Surge, & April 8th, 2026 🎆
"The rampant fraud in Minnesota is turning out to be one of the biggest blessings to the state in history, because it's finally forcing the truth into the light." ~ Mike Lindell
One Citizen, One Vote: Mike Lindell on the SAVE America Act and Minnesota’s Future
The fight for election integrity has reached a tipping point. In this high-impact RPP+ “Hanging Out” episode, Mike Lindell joins David Pasqualone to break down the SAVE (Safeguard American Voter Eligibility) America Act. As Mike navigates his 2026 run for Governor of Minnesota, he identifies this legislation as the vital first step in restoring trust in our democratic process and ensuring that only American citizens decide American elections.
Why the SAVE America Act is the “Starting Point” for 2026
Mike explains that the SAVE America Act is common-sense legislation supported by the vast majority of Americans across all political lines. By requiring proof of citizenship and a photo ID to register to vote, we close the dangerous loopholes that currently allow for potential non-citizen participation.
Rallies, Receipts, and the $1M Fundraising Surge
Beyond the legislation, Mike provides an explosive update on the momentum in Minnesota. With over $1 million raised already—an unprecedented feat for this stage of a governor’s race—and a massive state-wide tour launching April 8th, the campaign is bypassing the traditional media to bring the truth directly to the people.
