    243. UnBroken: Reclaim Your Wholeness with Karyn Shanks MD

    What if your pain, fatigue, and illness aren’t signs that something is broken, but your body doing exactly what it was designed to do? In this episode, Mechelle sits down with Dr. Karyn Shanks, physician, former nurse, and author of Unbroken. Karyn shares the moment in medical school when she realized she was being taught to see suffering people as broken things to fix, and the decades of unexplained fatigue and injuries that finally led her to a new understanding of the body as wise, intelligent, and always working to keep us safe. Together they explore: Why your body is never wrong, and what pain is really trying to tell you The three parts of Unbroken: We Belong, We Flow, and We Rise How disconnection from ourselves, each other, and nature sits at the root of so much chronic illness Why “bad habits” like that cookie or bag of chocolate chips are often genius survival strategies How trauma shapes our health, and why naming it can empower rather than overwhelm us A simple “safety circuit” practice to settle your nervous system in moments of overwhelm What “sparkly wholeness” means and how to claim it, imperfect parts and all Whether you’re living with chronic pain, feel like you’ve slipped through the cracks of conventional care, or simply want a kinder relationship with your body, this conversation is a reminder that you are already whole.

    Halloween Moon Phase Spread

    In this episode, I share my complicated history with Halloween and what I found when I looked into its roots. Long before the plastic skeletons and scary movies, this season began with Samhain, an ancient Celtic festival marking the end of the harvest and the turn toward winter. It was a time to honor loved ones who had passed, gather together, and carry light into the darkest part of the year. Through an Internal Family Systems (IFS) lens, I explore why this matters for our healing. The parts of us we've been taught to fear, the ones that feel dark, scary, or "bad," are often young, hurting, or working hard to protect us. Halloween, at its heart, is an invitation to turn toward our shadows with curiosity instead of fear. Then I pull out my Halloween oracle deck for a reading you can reflect on alongside me. So grab a cup of something warm, settle in, and ask yourself: what in me is ready to be seen this season?

    What If Your Imagination Is Telling the Truth? With Rayven — Oracle, Medium, Unapologetic Witch

    Tis the season When Rayven was little, she went missing in a cupboard. Her mom panicked and called the police. When Rayven came out she looked different, and she had a story about where she'd been — bright colors, beings of every shape and size, and a very tall someone whose hand she was holding who felt like an old friend. Her mom told her she had a wonderful imagination. Years later she remembered it, and landed on the question: what if the imagination is telling the truth? Just in time for spooky season, Rayven and Mechelle go all the way in. Fae who steal keys on hikes. A lion-headed being who jump-scared her mid-session. A coven of women who practice their gifts on each other. Ancestars. Three versions of every person who's passed. And a practice for the fear underneath it all: give it a color, hold it, then choose to be weird anyway. podcast episodes mentioned https://www.thewholenessnetwork.com/podcast/episode/486d2e09/194-witches-midwives-nurses-a-history-of-women-healers https://www.thewholenessnetwork.com/podcast/episode/349eb6d3/140-real-lives-of-witches-unraveling-the-magic-from-the-myth Watch the video version commercial-free inside Wholeness+ Explore Wholeness+ App FREE!

    Darlene Green on Love Speaks, Always: Becoming the New Human

    In the 1980s, in her first attempt at meditation, Darlene Green closed her eyes and Jesus was there. She asked, "Are you inside me or outside me?" He waved his arm, his sleeve opened onto infinity, and he said, "All of this is inside you." She carried that for thirty-five years without understanding it. Then in December 2017 she was invited to write — one year and one day of it, which became four books. Love Speaks Always is the newest, with a foreword by systems philosopher Ervin Laszlo. Darlene and Mechelle talk about horizontal versus vertical consciousness, moving along the gradient of light and density, and stepping into another room of yourself while you're doing laundry.  Enlightenment,Darlene says, isn't all unicorns and donuts. It takes courage. But there's no doing required — the invitation is simply to become all of who you are, and bring that.

    Refuge for the Weary Empath with Dave Markowitz

    Have you ever walked into a room one way and walked out feeling completely different? Or carried a heaviness for years without realizing it might not even be yours? In this episode, I sit down with medical intuitive, energy healer, and bestselling author Dave Markowitz to talk about his newest book, Refuge for the Weary Empath.  Dave shares the night he failed a sobriety test without drinking a drop, and how it revealed just how much we absorb from the people around us. We explore why shielding and constant boundary-holding can leave us drained, and what it looks like to let energy flow through instead. Dave introduces the four original wounds that shape how we see the world, and we talk about acceptance that opens a door instead of closing one. He shares the powerful moment he gave his mother back her sadness, and what Spirit told him when his anger work wasn't working: "Because you didn't love it." This conversation is an invitation to stop fighting what you feel, understand what's really yours, and move from balance into full-spectrum wholeness. 🤍 In this episode: Why every bad mood isn't necessarily yours The hidden cost of shielding and how to work with energy differently The four original wounds and how they shape our lives Empathy vs. empowerment: knowing what someone actually needs Returning absorbed grief and emotion to where it belongs Grief as a built-in healing mechanism Moving beyond balance into full-spectrum living Connect with Dave: Website: www.DaveMarkowitz.comRefuge for the Weary Empath: https://amzn.to/4hpRION Keyhole exercise video: https://youtu.be/Ii7yNVM-Qy8 Watch the video version commercial-free inside Wholeness+ Explore Wholeness+ App FREE!

    238. Glow and Tell: Meet the Four Bodies

    You're not just one self — you're four: mind, body, spirit, and soul. In this solo episode, Mechelle shares the aha moment that reframed her own weight-loss journey and introduces the framework that's shaped years of her coaching work since. She walks through why emotional weight can show up in the physical body, why "hearing" your body isn't the same as listening to it, and how to start noticing which of your four bodies is really running the show in any given moment. This episode also marks the launch of Mechelle's new card deck, Glow and Tell — a tool for tapping into mind, body, spirit, and soul one card at a time. She closes the episode by pulling a few cards live and walking through the reflection questions, so you can play along.4 Bodies Card DeckMedicine Wheel Graphic Watch the video version commercial-free inside Wholeness+ Explore Wholeness+ App FREE!

    237. Clearing Energetic Clutter & the Chakras of Your Home with K. Margaret Solorio

    You know the feeling of walking into a room where an argument just happened. Nobody tells you. You just know. K. Margaret Solorio calls that energetic dust — and she says it collects in our homes the same way physical dust does, gathering in the corners, thickening around the things we've stopped noticing. Margaret came to this work by an unusual road: German winemaking, a biotechnology degree, and a lifetime of asking questions her science teachers couldn't finish answering. She trained as an Angel Reiki Master working on people, and kept getting nudged toward spaces instead until she finally sat down with her journal and asked what was going on. What she got back was a whole method. Now she clears homes she's never set foot in. A client sends a hand-drawn blueprint with each room labeled, and Margaret works through it room by room with the archangels — and sometimes a loved one from the other side — taking notes the whole way. She maps the chakras onto the house, and it's different every time. One woman's crown chakra turned out to be her back porch, which is exactly where she'd been meditating for years. She and Mechelle get into energetic clutter and why the physical and the emotional are always tangled together, what happens when a spirit is stuck in a home and doesn't know why, and the time the angels blacked out a garage and told her it simply wasn't time. But some of the best of this conversation is small. The chipped bowls Margaret used for years before realizing she was the grown-up now and could just replace them. The thin towels. Saving the good dishes for guests and forgetting you're allowed to be the special person. Her three go-to levers for any room: lighting, air, and nature. And an honest exchange about inherited things — what we keep out of obligation, what we let go of without guilt, and why Mechelle's stack of tiny Corelle bowls is worth more to her than anything in the house that had actual value.Connect with K.

    236. Surviving Cancer Twice: I Couldn't Ring the Bell with Lori Sill

    Lori Sill has been through cancer twice. When she reached her last treatment the second time, she couldn't ring the bell — she'd rung it once already, and it hadn't meant what everyone said it would mean. In this episode, Mechelle finally brings her best friend of more than a decade to the mic. Lori talks openly about what she's living right now: the recovery nobody prepares you for, the years it took last time to get her strength back, the mental gymnastics of every new ache, and why going through it a second time was harder because she already knew what was coming. She also shares what changed in round two, from how she handled the medications to the boundaries she's holding now around her work and her energy. Their friendship runs underneath all of it. They go back to the hike neither of them wanted to be on, the gas station drinks that became a lifeline, and the time on the couch when a quiz from a book pulled the blinders off Lori's marriage. Lori is also the reason this show exists — she went first into the oils, into Reiki, into the shamanic work, and left the door open behind her every time. Then they pull four Glow & Tell cards — Mind, Spirit, Body, and Soul. Lori answers what thought pattern she had to unlearn, how she explains the unseen to someone who only trusts proof, what her body does when it feels truly safe, and the difference between forgiveness and simply moving on. If you're in the after — the part where everyone thinks you're fine — this one's for you. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
