    Cooperative Polygraphy: Raquel Zertuche

    When I told people I was sitting down with a Reiki practitioner and Kangen Water distributor, I think some expected an argument. What they got instead was a conversation. Raquel Zertuche is a chef, culinary instructor, entrepreneur, Reiki practitioner, and wellness advocate whose journey has taken her from a traditional Hispanic Catholic upbringing into the worlds of holistic wellness, personal development, and community building. As someone who has spent over 16 years working in healthcare and believes strongly in traditional Western medicine, I was curious to hear her perspective. What followed wasn’t a debate, but an honest discussion about health, spirituality, food, entrepreneurship, personal experiences, and the beliefs that shape how we see the world. We discuss her years as a culinary instructor, her passion for teaching others through food, her experiences with Reiki healing, Kangen Water, faith, wellness, and the mentors who influenced her path. We also explore why it’s possible to disagree with someone while still respecting them and finding common ground. Whether you’re skeptical, curious, supportive, or somewhere in between, this episode is less about changing minds and more about understanding each other. At the end of the day, this wasn’t a debate. It was two people from different worlds sitting down to listen.

  2. Introduction to Foot Pic Economics 101

    May 18

    Introduction to Foot Pic Economics 101

    What started as a random coworker conversation somehow turned into a full podcast episode. “Introduction to Foot Pic Economics 101” is the first official test episode featuring Andrea, La Chona, Chucho, and Vanessa (all fake names lol) as the conversation completely spirals out of control. Topics include: ​ Karol G ticket desperation ​ Side hustle morality ​ Selling feet pics ​ Dirty underwear economics ​ How much money is TOO much money? ​ And why microphones suddenly make everyone act weird Nobody thought the microphones were actually coming out that day, but once recording started, it turned into one of those conversations that felt way too funny not to upload. It’s messy, awkward, chaotic, and very season one DTRH energy. Some moments crash and burn, other moments genuinely had us dying laughing. If you’ve ever had an unhinged break room conversation with coworkers that should’ve stayed private… this episode will probably feel familiar. 🎙️ Disclaimer: All names in this episode have been changed and certain details were altered for privacy purposes.

    Advanced Emotional Rewiring 102 (W/Monica Pelayo of Thriving Pathways LLC.)

    This week on DTRH Podcast, we sit down with Monica Pelayo, founder of Thriving Pathways LLC, Certified Hypnotherapist (CH), and certified Rapid Transformational Therapy (RTT®) practitioner helping people break free from the subconscious patterns that keep them stuck. After more than 21 years in the high-tech industry, including 4 years working in Intel’s CEO Office, Monica made a major career shift into transformational healing and mindset work. Today, she helps high performing professionals identify and rewire the invisible beliefs behind procrastination, self-sabotage, overthinking, anxiety, confidence issues, trauma responses, and unhealthy relationship cycles. RTT® is a powerful method that combines hypnotherapy, psychotherapy, mindfulness, and neuroplasticity to uncover the root cause of limiting beliefs, many of which are formed during childhood and replace them with healthier, more empowering patterns. In this episode, we go beyond surface level self-help and into the real work: childhood programming, emotional triggers, family dynamics, accountability, infidelity, healing old wounds, and what it actually takes to stop repeating the same painful cycles. This conversation gets personal, honest, and uncomfortable in the best way, because real growth usually is. If you’ve ever felt like you’re repeating the same lesson in different forms, this episode is for you.

  4. 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

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

    12/18/2025

    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

    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.
