This conversation dives into the deeper layers of healing, not just as emotional release, but as a return to wholeness.

    Exploring Flow & Alignment with Walt Hampton

    What if flow isn’t something you chase, but something you allow? In this episode, I sit down once again with Walt Hampton: former criminal defense lawyer turned interfaith minister and business coach, whose life reflects the power of alignment, curiosity, and trusting the deeper current beneath our choices. This conversation unfolds organically, touching on identity, surrender, creativity, and the illusion of competition. From ancient spiritual metaphors to modern entrepreneurial pressures, Walt shares insights that invite us to loosen our grip, reconnect with wonder, and remember that alignment isn’t optimized, it’s embodied. This isn’t about finding the one thing. It’s about recognizing the many places flow already exists, and allowing yourself to step into it.

Marilyn’s spiritual path began with a deep intuitive awareness in childhood and was later shaped through years of shamanic training. Her approach blends prayer, nature, and intuitive discernment to help clients release trauma, generational patterns, and spiritual blockages that weaken their inner foundation.

Marilyn shares how understanding your energetic landscape can transform not just how you feel, but how you move through the world.

    Exploring Mind, Body & Spirit: 2025 in Review

    What if looking back on your year could help you see yourself more clearly, and step forward with intention? In this special year-end episode, I step into the mic solo to reflect on 2025: the first full year of the Viking Academy Podcast. Across 26 conversations with thinkers, healers, entrepreneurs, and explorers, a powerful theme emerged: true growth happens when we explore the mind, body, and spirit together. This episode isn’t a highlight reel, it’s a guided reflection. I revisit the insights that shaped me most this year, share what challenged my thinking, and invite you to pause and reflect on your own journey through 2025. Along the way, I offer simple questions, practices, and a grounding ritual to help you integrate what you’ve lived, not just intellectually, but experientially. This is about wholeness, not hacks.  Integration, not optimization.  And remembering that the joy is in the exploration itself. Topics We Explore: The unifying theme behind every Viking Academy conversation in 2025Exploring mind, body, and spirit as an integrated wholeLessons from fitness, neuroscience, art, technology, and spiritualityWhy quality beats quantity in growth, training, and lifeHow stories, myths, and identity shape who we becomeThe power of reflection, writing, and intentional self-inquiryQuestions to help you close 2025 with clarity and open 2026 with purposeLearn More about The Viking Academy: https://www.vikingacademy.com

    Exploring Energy & Healing with Dr. Bill Schroeder

    What if the body already knows how to heal, if we simply knew how to listen? In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Bill Schroeder, physician, molecular biologist, and integrative medicine pioneer, whose life bridges rigorous science and profound intuitive awareness. Trained in internal medicine and molecular biology, Bill spent decades working inside the conventional medical system while quietly exploring the subtle energy dynamics that shape health, consciousness, and human resilience. After studying under Dr. Andrew Weil and legendary healer Rosalyn Bruyere, Dr. Schroeder began integrating energy medicine, neuroscience, and evolutionary biology into his clinical work, witnessing recoveries that challenged everything modern medicine assumes about healing, pain, and the mind-body connection. This conversation explores energy not as mysticism but as biology, and consciousness not as belief, but as a survival technology built into the human nervous system. This isn’t about bypassing medicine. It’s about remembering the doctor within. Topics We Explore: How subtle energy influences healing, stress, and the nervous systemThe science behind expanded states of awareness and the “third eye”Why fear collapses the human energy field, and calm restores itThe role of consciousness in pain, trauma, and chronic illnessWhat ancient healing traditions understood that modern medicine forgotConnect with  Dr. Bill Schroeder: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dr-william-robert-schroeder-do-mcdb-b787131a4/  Learn More about The Viking Academy: https://www.vikingacademy.com

    Exploring Conscious Purpose with Don Barden

    What if understanding human nature could unlock the future of our species? In this episode, I sit down once again with Don Barden, economist, author, Wall Street executive, seminary scholar, and one of the deepest thinkers on human behavior today. Don’s life blends intellect, spirituality, and real-world leadership in a way few people ever achieve. Together, we explore the timeless patterns of human behavior, why ambition and purpose are built into our DNA, and how our morality shifts while our core nature never does. From innovation to spirituality, from economic evolution to cosmic possibility, Don breaks down what he believes is humanity’s next major leap, and why it might happen sooner than we think. This isn’t theory. It’s a raw, expansive conversation about purpose, consciousness, and what it truly means to live as a human being in a world on the edge of change. Topics We Explore: Why human nature hasn’t changed, and why that mattersThe real relationship between purpose, ambition & innovationHow social constructs limit our evolution (and how to break free)Why consciousness may shift dramatically in the next 20 yearsThe role of spirituality, science, and “the divine spark”How understanding purpose can reshape society, economics & humanity's futureConnect with Don Barden: https://donbarden.com/  Learn More about The Viking Academy: https://www.vikingacademy.com
