    Ep 161 Conditioning to Consciousness | A conversation with Jess Callahan

    Guest Info https://conditioningtoconsciousness.substack.com/about?utm_source=ig&utm_medium=social&utm_content=link_in_bio&fbclid=PAZnRzaATzrulwZG9mAmZkaWQWUM25Cy4sfM9YDW35DqA1zE4LuHxXHGV4dG4DYWVtAjExAHNydGMGYXBwX2lkDzEyNDAyNDU3NDI4NzQxNAABp6-UFTXvb7x0DdxH-HVEMynYgnrkGUdLOQm9o6iGb4eqdTiwQi1b4sL35KhL_aem_n7uR1kJ01ZnF7ainMFMqOQ&utm_id=97760_v0_s00_e0_tv3 I’m Jess. My work is shaped by years of unraveling inherited patterns, healing my nervous system, and learning how to live with more autonomy, awareness, and self-trust. These days, I live a life that actually feels like mine — connected to purpose, guided by intuition, and built to sustain nervous system regulation. I host a podcast — conditioning to consciousness — and offer digital tools and coaching to support mind/body/soul transformation. I’m a student of transpersonal psychology focusing on consciousness studies, and I offer past life regression hypnosis. I’m also a mom to three small humans, and the truth is — they’re always watching. So alignment isn’t optional. I write to heal myself, and because I know that each time I share my voice, I heal a little bit forward for them, too. I’m endlessly curious about how we got to this place where the world feels heavy and broken, and what the path to healing looks like. I’m a firm believer that if just 1% of us elevate our consciousness through deeper awareness and the inner journey, that we can create a shift in the world around us.

    Ep 156 Kitty Lynne: Turning Pain Into Purpose

    Guest Info Kitty Lynne is the oldest of five and credits the loss of her brother to addiction as one of the most life-altering moments of her healing journey. While it wasn’t her first struggle, it profoundly reshaped the way she understood grief, purpose, and human connection. What began as personal healing slowly transformed into a calling to create spaces where people don’t have to carry their pain alone. Today, she leads The Authentic Life Collective, a nonprofit community dedicated to emotional safety, storytelling, and reminding people they are not alone in their struggles. From partnering with the Break The Silence Festival in Colorado to amplify conversations around mental health, recovery, and suicide prevention, to traveling with her community to support others in sharing their stories, Kitty is committed to turning pain into purpose. She is also the host of The Authentic Life w/ KL podcast, where she invites everyday humans, artists, and musicians to share real stories of overcoming odds, healing, and becoming. Through honest conversation, music, and lived experience, Kitty creates spaces where hope feels accessible, healing feels human, and authenticity is always welcome.
