Life Lessons from the Tennis Court with Ray Chang

Living Without Resistance with Pablo Das

We often think enlightenment means having life all figured out. That couldn’t be further from the truth. In our 25th episode, we sit down with secular Buddhist teacher Pablo Das for a big conversation about what we’re all searching for. He introduces us to the concept of The Second Arrow: the pain life inevitably brings, and the extra suffering we create by fighting it. Together, we explore grief, compassion, the wisdom of the body, and why embracing the full spectrum of the human experience (even the unpleasant parts!) is the path to living with more ease.

Winning Without Losing Yourself with Iman Jordan

Yes, YOU are the prize. But what happens when you win one of the world’s biggest awards?  This week, we sit down with singer, songwriter, podcast host, and Grammy-winning artist Iman Jordan for a conversation about what external recognition can change and what it never can (or should). We also talk about why success is at its best when it amplifies who you already are, why healing the artist is essential to healing the world, and how creativity can become a force for meaningful change.  You Are The Prize™ A Studio STAB Production   Hosted by: Alexis Kay and Alex Newson Guest: Iman Jordan  Executive Producers: Alexis Kay and Alex Newson Audio & Video Production by: Jonathan Champion for The Champ Effect Original Music by: Scott Martin © 2026 Studio STAB.

Healing Looks Good On You with Gracie Cartier

The truth doesn’t just change your life. It changes your energy.  We all carry old stories, other people's expectations, and pain that doesn't belong to us. But what happens when we finally set it down? This week, Emmy-nominated celebrity hair stylist, performer, and trans advocate Gracie Cartier joins us to share the freedom she's found on the other side of healing. We talk about the invisible seasons of growth, the energy that emerges when you're fully yourself, and why some people will always try to dim your light.  You Are The Prize™ A Studio STAB Production   Hosted by: Alexis Kay and Alex Newson Guest: Gracie Cartier  Executive Producers: Alexis Kay and Alex Newson Audio & Video Production by: Jonathan Champion for The Champ Effect Original Music by: Scott Martin © 2026 Studio STAB.

Standing a Little Taller with Lawren Sample

How to build a life that not only fits, but makes you feel powerful.  This week, stylist, entrepreneur, and creative director Lawren Sample joins us for a conversation about craftsmanship, confidence, and the power of community. As the co-founder of both Partlow and Cuatro Mamas, Lawren has built her career around a simple idea: the things we make—whether it's a pair of boots, a meal, or a community—have the power to change the way people see themselves. And that’s what makes it all worthwhile. We talk about trusting your instincts, the myth of "doing it all," and how the people around us make it possible to do any of it.

Feeling Yourself with DJ Juliet Mendoza

A conversation about deep house, deep healing, and the energy that changes everything.   This week, DJ and producer Juliet Mendoza joins us for a conversation about the deeper purpose of music and what it means to gather with intention. Juliet shares her journey from survival to service, and how music and movement became a path toward healing and self-belief. We explore what happens collectively on the dance floor, why house music has always been rooted in liberation and belonging, and how intention can shape not just a night, but an entire life. We also talk about Juliet’s label Spiritual Systems Records, The One Hundred, and her mission to create soulful experiences that feel grounded and deeply human.
