When Success is not Enough: A Man's Journey from Survival to Living EP 65 w/Rasmus Ingerslev

In this powerful conversation, I connect with my friend Rasmus, a man who has walked the path from high-performance business leadership to deep emotional and spiritual awakening. From his beginnings as an elite athlete and fitness entrepreneur to his evolution into a father and men’s mentor, we explore what it truly means to lead from the inside out. Rooted in the theme of Men’s Development & Conscious Leadership, this dialogue is heart-centered, deeply personal, and grounded in practices that cultivate presence, vulnerability, and real power. Rasmus shares how divorce became his greatest teacher—opening him to grief, humility, and radical self-honesty—and how those lessons now inform his men’s work. We talk about breaking cycles of pain and overachievement, the difference between performance and embodiment, and why turning inward often reveals more strength than chasing external success. We also explore conscious parenting, the courage it takes to re-pattern family dynamics, and how healthy sexuality emerges when men face their wounds with compassion and accountability. Throughout the episode, we offer practical pathways: slowing down to listen to the body, tending to the nervous system, practicing clean communication, honoring boundaries with love, and redefining success through integrity and connection. If you’re seeking balance, presence, or a more grounded way to lead—in your work, relationships, or fatherhood—this conversation invites you to meet yourself more fully and lead with an open heart.

The Moment you stop Forcing and Start Listening EP 64

In this episode, I reflect on the beauty of life’s cycles and how every ending carries a new beginning. I share how the seasons of our lives invite us to release what’s complete, make space for what’s emerging, and trust the quiet intelligence that moves beneath the noise. This conversation is a gentle reminder that the path unfolds in its own sacred timing—and that our work is to listen, tend, and allow. Through a personal story of choosing intuition over logic, I talk about one decision that changed the direction of my life. It wasn’t neat or certain, but it was honest—and that honesty became a compass. We explore the metaphor of the seed within: what we nourish, we grow. I invite you to notice where your inner knowing has been asking for your attention, and how small, consistent acts of care can become the soil for profound transformation. Together, we lean into deep listening, resilience through obstacles, and letting the soul’s intelligence lead rather than the expectations of others. The takeaway is simple and powerful: trust yourself, make room for silence, and honor the wisdom that’s already here. Your path—however different it looks—is whole and complete in its unfolding, and every step you take in alignment becomes a quiet revolution toward who you really are.

Embracing Vulnerability in Men's Brotherhood with Blake Zealear & Jack Dreki EP 63

In this episode, I sit with Blake Zealear and Jack to explore the transformative experience of men’s work and embodied brotherhood. We open up about how connection, vulnerability, and shared experience among men create the foundation for true leadership and self-acceptance. Through honest conversation and lived stories, we reflect on what becomes possible when men learn to slow down, feel deeply, and be witnessed without judgment. Blake shares his journey in the wake of losing his father, and how mentorship and community shaped his healing. His story reveals how grief can become a teacher—guiding us toward integrity, presence, and a steadier sense of self. We talk about the practices that support this path—naming the truth, listening with the body, and cultivating trust over time—so that strength is no longer performance, but rootedness. Jack opens up about rediscovering softness, setting healthy boundaries, and honoring the dance of masculine and feminine within. Together, we unpack common misconceptions about men’s gatherings and highlight what actually happens in these spaces: accountability with compassion, real emotions brought into the light, and the quiet magic that emerges when men allow themselves to be seen. This conversation is a heartfelt invitation to step into your body, open your heart, and reimagine strength as wholeness.

When Success nearly kills you: A burnout specialist's story

In this episode, I sit down with Charlene Gisele to unpack the deep roots of burnout and how it shapes our bodies, relationships, and emotional well-being. We talk about why burnout is rarely just about workload—it’s often a reflection of old patterns, internalized expectations, and the ways we’ve learned to seek safety and validation. Charlene’s perspective is both compassionate and grounded, reminding us that healing doesn’t require abandoning ambition; it asks us to reorient it with presence and care. Charlene shares her powerful journey from being a high-performing lawyer driven by perfectionism to hitting a wall—and then choosing radical transformation. We explore how childhood experiences can wire us for over-responsibility and people-pleasing, and how hypnotherapy can help us reconnect to repressed emotions, unwind addictive coping behaviors, and build a more resilient inner foundation. The throughline is self-honesty: seeing the patterns that served us once but no longer do, and meeting them with skill instead of shame. We also dig into what a healthier relationship with work, love, and purpose looks like in real life: listening to the body’s signals, setting boundaries without guilt, creating simple restoration rituals, and pursuing big goals from an aligned nervous system. The invitation is to keep your drive—and pair it with awareness, spiritual practice, and a values-led compass. Burnout recovery isn’t about dimming your light; it’s about directing it with balance, intention, and presence.

Motherhood, Magic & Medicine with Sigourney Belle EP 61

I invited my friend Sigourney Belle to explore the real transformation that happens when we move from maiden to mother—and why it’s a physiological, neurological, and spiritual awakening. Together we name the power of matrescence, the rise of heightened instinct, and the shadow of fear that can surface in pregnancy. Sigourney shares how unexpected challenges late in her pregnancy dismantled old structures, and how she rebuilt her life with deeper trust in her body’s wisdom—ultimately birthing Soma Mystica as a bridge between modern medicine and mystical insight. We go deep into somatic healing: what field intelligence feels like in real time, why co-regulation and therapeutic touch matter, and how practitioners must master state entrainment so their nervous systems become safe, attuned instruments. I share the practices I lean on to anchor presence, while Sigourney offers trauma-informed perspectives that make intuition practical—so we can listen to the body’s signals without getting swept by them. From parenting to education, we explore cultivating a child’s unique genius, unshaming early body education, and making aligned schooling choices—from Steiner to Green School Bali. We talk about raising embodied, sovereign kids who can sense their own boundaries and creativity, and how intuitive leadership at home starts with our capacity to feel, name, and navigate our inner states. Sigourney also opens up about co-parenting, dating after birth, and building a slower, more strategic business that supports motherhood and creativity. This conversation is an invitation to widen what we believe is possible—inside our bodies, our relationships, and the ecosystems we steward—so that healing becomes not just personal, but profoundly relational and generational.
