    Spiritual Awakening Without Getting Lost: Danny Morel on God, Gurus & Plant Medicine Ep 34

    In this episode of Conscious Conversations, I sit down with Danny Morel, spiritual guide, entrepreneur, author, speaker, and founder of a global awakening community of over 3.5 million people. Together, we discuss the global awakening happening right now on planet Earth — and why millions of people are starting to ask deeper questions about the lives they’ve built, the beliefs they inherited, the success they chased, the relationships they accepted, and the versions of themselves they were told they had to become. But awakening is not always light, easy, or glamorous. Sometimes the search for healing can become another place to lose yourself. Danny and I explore how to wake up without getting lost in the sauce. How to learn from teachers without putting them on pedestals. How to explore spirituality, plant medicine, God, religion, nature, and transformation without outsourcing your power. And how to move from simply knowing the language of healing into actually embodying it. Danny also shares his own awakening story, including the loss of his mother, questioning religion, leaving behind external validation, facing his ego, and the moments that forced him to choose truth over the life he had been programmed to live. We also get into the guru complex, spiritual discernment, the rise and fall of spiritual teachers, the shift we are seeing from plant medicine spaces back toward religion, Danny’s perspective on Jesus and God, personal truth, universal truth, and the commercialization of spirituality. My hope is that this episode invites you deeper into your own truth as you navigate the world of spirituality, healing, religion, awakening, and transformation. But above all, I hope it invites you to keep asking deeper questions.

    She Planned Parties for Beyoncé & Prince… Then Her Body Forced Her to Wake Up | Amanda Baudier Ep 33

    In this episode of Conscious Conversations, Lana sits down with Amanda Baudier, an integrated spiritual teacher, entrepreneur mentor, and former managing partner at Tao Group, to explore the journey from New York nightlife, celebrity access, and high-achievement burnout into spiritual integration, embodiment, and purpose. Amanda shares how she went from a working-class childhood in Maryland to Columbia University, then into the center of New York nightlife — planning parties for names like Beyoncé, Prince, and Leonardo DiCaprio. From the outside, it looked like the dream life: Tao, Lavo, Marquee, Beauty & Essex, celebrities, private planes, and access. But underneath the glamour was overwork, clout addiction, and a deeper question of worth, belonging, and identity. At 28, Amanda’s body forced her to stop when a routine checkup revealed a severe, life-threatening heart arrhythmia that required an ablation. What she later understood as not just a physical injury, but a “soul injury,” became the beginning of her deeper healing path — one that led her into Reiki, yoga, meditation, somatic work, shamanic practice, and ultimately her work helping others integrate spirituality into real life. Together, Lana and Amanda talk about the shadow side of success, the cost of chasing access and status, why the glitter isnt always gold, what it means to live a “double life” between ambition and spirituality, and why becoming who you really are does not always follow a clean, linear path. This conversation is for anyone who has ever built a life that looked good from the outside, but started to feel misaligned on the inside. Topics covered New York nightlife, Tao Group, celebrity culture, burnout, heart surgery, spiritual awakening, soul loss, nervous system healing, somatic work, ambition, purpose, reinvention, late blooming, integration, and becoming.

    Is the Wellness World Making You Sick? The Uncomfortable Truth About New Age Spirituality | Ep 30

    In this very unfiltered and very honest episode, Conscious Concierge sits down with spiritual mentor and trauma-informed guide Zack Alexander to explore what no one wants to talk about out loud which is -  the shadow side of the wellness and new age spiritual world. You know you can always trust your girl to GO THERE! We talk about the misuse of spiritual authority, the danger of untrained “healers,” spiritual psychosis, chronic illness as initiation, and the quiet unraveling of the guru complex. Together, we ask: What really makes someone qualified to hold trauma? Why are so many spiritual spaces secretly bypassing the very emotions they claim to heal? How do we build an ethical, grounded wellness industry rooted in truth and safety not performance? Zack shares his raw story of walking away from a top law school, surviving a four-year mystery illness, navigating a destabilizing spiritual awakening and ultimately becoming the kind of guide he wished he had. This isn’t another love & light interview LOL. This is a very deeply and uncomfortably honest look at the ins and outs of the new age spiritual healing sphere. WE COVER: The collapse of the “Instagram Guru” paradigm When healing turns performative and how to tell the difference Spiritual psychosis and the dark side of awakening The failures of both mainstream AND alternative medicine How illness can initiate your path — if you let it Why we need structure, regulation & accountability in the healing/spiritual world ASAP Building community over hierarchy in the healing space If you're navigating your own awakening, stepping into healing work, or questioning the spiritual space altogether - this conversation will meet you there. 🌿 LEARN MORE: Conscious Concierge Website: https://www.yourconsciousconcierge.com Instagram:   / yourconsciousconcierge  Subscribe for more honest conversations on the spiritual, conscious, wellness, healing world that are not afraid to go there.  Subscribe for more.

    She Was Married to the Wolf of Wall Street — Dr. Nadine Macaluso on Abuse, Trauma, and Healing | Ep 29

    Dr. Nadine Macaluso also known as Dr Nae, was the real-life inspiration for the character played by Margot Robbie ex wife of Jordan Belford in The Wolf of Wall Street - the Martin Scorsese film that grossed nearly $400M and became one of the most iconic depictions of money, excess, and power in modern cinema. But behind the glamorization of wealth and toxic love was a very real woman  living through addiction, betrayal, emotional abuse, and trauma bonds while raising two children. Nadine’s story wasn’t told in the movie. But she’s telling it now and not just for herself. After surviving years of abuse, she went on to get her PHD, become a licensed psychotherapist, trauma bond expert, author of Run Like Hell, and community facilitator helping thousands of women heal from the exact patterns she lived through. In this episode, we talk about: What really happened behind the scenes of The Wolf of Wall Street from her perspective What it felt like to have her life turned into a movie -  without her voice How she finally left Jordan Belfort and started over from scratch Why she refused to take “blood money” and built a new life on her own terms How trauma bonds actually work - and why smart, capable women get trapped in them The myth of codependency, and what no one tells you about abuse recovery How to tell the difference between chemistry and chaos - and recognize safe, healthy love Why she wrote Run Like Hell and started a healing community for women everywhere If you have gone through something deeply challenging, traumatizing, or painful this one if for you. My hope is that it inspires you too to take the pain and do something with it.  📚 Grab her book Run Like Hell → https://www.amazon.com/Run-Like-Hell-Therapists-Recognizing/dp/B0CD3CL12G 💻 Join her healing community → https://course.drnae.com/trauma-bond-recovery-course-e 📲 Follow her on Instagram → https://www.instagram.com/therealdrnadine 🌿 Looking for what is the next or best support for you in your mental physical or spiritual health journey → https://www.yourconsciousconcierge.com IG → https://www.instagram.com/yourconsciousconcierge XO, Your Conscious Concierge Subscribe for more.
