  1. Advanced Identity Rewiring W/Geeta Sidhu Robb (Season 7)

    Advanced Identity Rewiring W/Geeta Sidhu Robb (Season 7)

    We’re kicking off 2026 and Season 7 of Down the Rabbit Hole with a conversation that sets the tone for what’s ahead: depth, honesty, and real-world impact. In this episode, I sit down with Geeta Sidhu-Robb, founder & CEO, activist, coach, and one of the few people who has successfully crossed from personal crisis into elite rooms of power without losing herself in the process. Geeta’s journey doesn’t start with awards or accolades. It starts with becoming a mother and facing a medical crisis when her son was born with severe food allergies, eczema, asthma, and anaphylaxis. That moment forced her to rebuild her relationship with health, identity, and control, eventually leading her to create Nosh Detox in 2008, a wellness brand that went on to gain global recognition and high-profile clients. From there, Geeta made a radical pivot: retraining from a lawyer into a health and wellness coach for high-performing professional women. Over the years, she has coached CEOs, founders, and industry leaders through promotions, IPOs, massive exits, and deep personal reinvention, working with names tied to companies like Barclays, UBS, Fidelity, and Impellam, as well as public figures and cultural leaders. But her work doesn’t stop at individuals. As Founder & CEO of WCorp Ltd, Geeta now operates at a systemic level, working across Europe, India, and Africa to push for real workplace equity, leadership reform, and institutional accountability. Her activism spans from organizing million-person protests against Brexit to advising organizations on how power, culture, and gender truly function inside modern workplaces. In this conversation, we talk about: what actually has to break before transformation begins how access to power really works (and what people get wrong about it) the difference between personal healing and systemic change navigating elite spaces as a woman and a single mother and what thriving actually costs behind the scenes This isn’t a highlight reel. It’s a real conversation about reinvention, responsibility, and influence from someone who’s lived all of it. 📌 Instagram (main): https://www.instagram.com/geetasidhurobb/?hl=en 🏢 WCorp Ltd (Founder & CEO): https://www.instagram.com/wcorpltd/?hl=en https://www.wcorporation.org/about-us 🌱 Nosh Detox: https://www.instagram.com/noshdetox/ 🎥 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@GeetaSidhu-Robb 🌐 Website / Links: https://www.geetasidhu-robb.com/links2025 https://www.geetasidhu-robb.com/lead Connect with Geeta Sidhu-Robb

  2. Neurochemistry of Human Behavior W/ Dr. Loretta Breuning PhD.

    Neurochemistry of Human Behavior W/ Dr. Loretta Breuning PhD.

    In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Loretta Graziano Breuning, founder of the Inner Mammal Institute and author of Habits of a Happy Brain, to explore how the brain chemicals we inherited from earlier mammals quietly run our lives. Loretta’s work breaks human behavior down to its biological roots... dopamine, serotonin, oxytocin, and endorphin and explains why our brains evolved to chase rewards, seek status, crave connection, and avoid pain. Her perspective is simple but uncomfortable: these chemicals were designed for survival, not constant happiness. Once you understand that, a lot of your emotional ups and downs suddenly make sense. What stood out to me in this conversation is how much of what I thought was “personal failure” was actually old neural wiring doing what it was trained to do. The constant push to feel better, the restlessness, the craving for validation, the anxiety when things feel uncertain, all of it clicked when framed through the idea of the inner mammal. Not as something to fight or suppress, but something to understand and work with. As someone constantly juggling creativity, responsibility, and self-doubt, Loretta’s approach gave me language for patterns I’ve lived with for years. It helped me see why certain habits stick, why change feels so hard even when you want it, and why progress isn’t about fixing yourself, it’s about building new pathways one repetition at a time. This episode isn’t about quick hacks or toxic positivity. It’s about learning how your brain actually works, why feeling “up and down” is normal, and how awareness gives you real agency over your behavior instead of shame. If you’ve ever felt stuck in cycles you can’t explain, this conversation might give you the missing context. 🌐 Website / Institute https://innermammalinstitute.org https://innermammalinstitute.org/about/ 📸 Instagram @inner.mammal.inst https://www.instagram.com/inner.mammal.inst 📘 Facebook LorettaBreuningPhD https://www.facebook.com/LorettaBreuningPhD 📺 YouTube Inner Mammal Institute https://www.youtube.com/c/InnerMammalInstitute 🔗 All Links / Resources https://linktr.ee/lorettabreuning Find Dr. Loretta Graziano Breuning

  3. Advanced Storytelling 102: From Underwater Filmmaker to Creative Director!

    Advanced Storytelling 102: From Underwater Filmmaker to Creative Director!

    On this episode of Down the Rabbit Hole, I sat down with Shelby Ring — founder of Ruby Riot Creatives, visual storyteller, and just a genuinely deep and wild soul. This isn’t one of those surface-level interviews about business and branding (Studio set ups and tech used). We talked about everything from growing up in a strict evangelical home to being a yacht chef in the Caribbean who ended up falling in love with a GoPro more than the grind. Shelby shares how she went from filming baitfish in crystal blue waters to building a two-city creative agency that helps people tell their story with confidence and style. But what stuck with me most was her honesty — about her divorce, her healing, and what it really means to step into your own identity. She opened up about the moment she asked her mom to stop praying for her marriage and just be her mom, and how that shifted everything. This episode goes deep into family dynamics, self-worth, femininity, religious baggage, and learning to show up for yourself. We also get into her new course, The Art of Being on Camera — it’s Godfather-themed (yes, you read that right), and it’s all about helping you stop overthinking and start showing up like a pro on video. 🎥 Sign up for the waitlist here: rubyriotcreatives.com/interview 💸 Use code DTRH for 15% off — if it still works, you’re welcome. 🎧 More from Shelby: rubyriotcreatives.com 📲 Follow her: @rubyriotcreatives And if this episode hits you like it did me, drop a review — especially on our Plugged collab.

    Paradigms Of Human Memory W/ Shaina Reyes

    Welcome to Season 6 of the DTRH Podcast! After October’s chaotic finale, we’re back with more deep dives, unexpected twists, and raw conversations. In this inspiring and reflective episode, Shaina Reyes shares her incredible journey as a war hero and female combat veteran. She faced ISIS eye to eye alongside her comrades in Afghanistan and emerged with stories of resilience, sacrifice, and an unbreakable spirit. Shaina recounts the explosion that took so much from her but ultimately strengthened her soul, describing how a healer’s gift reminded her of her own ability to heal herself and others. Through her experiences in the military and beyond, Shaina has studied various healing modalities, including spirituality, religion, psychology, communication, and metaphysical arts. Her connection with God—or the universe’s plan for her—has guided her toward physical and emotional strength, as well as a deep commitment to helping others. From navigating the complexities of trauma to her passion for civic engagement and voting, Shaina’s story is a testament to perseverance and purpose. She hopes to write a book to bring awareness to the suffering we face as human beings and inspire hope and peace in our hearts. Tune in for a deeply personal conversation about patriotism, healing, and the lessons that shape our understanding of service and community.
