    The Most Important Word Is Yet: Tom Cladis on Limits, Free Will, and The Age of Serpents and Scorpions

    Send us Fan Mail Tom Cladis is the award-winning author of The Age of Serpents and Scorpions, an epic fantasy that explores timeless questions about consciousness, free will, human evolution, and the choices that shape our collective future. Through mythic storytelling, Tom examines the inner battles that define personal transformation and humanity's ongoing journey toward greater wisdom and compassion. Drawing from a lifelong interest in philosophy, spirituality, and the human condition, he invites audiences to explore how ancient truths remain relevant in today's rapidly changing world. In this episode, Tom and Heather talk about the belief at the center of his work: that limits are self-imposed. Tom shares how his teenage protagonists, Jimmy and Sasha, began making choices he never would have thought of, why he says he became a note taker instead of a storyteller, and how writing the book felt like an out-of-body flow state. He explains why he considers yet the most important word in the language, and he and Heather explore whether immortality is literal, symbolic, or both. They also talk about what happens when you begin to question the traditions you inherited, and Tom tells us about his nonfiction book, How to Lift Cars Off Your Face and Other Tips for Living Forever, and the sequel he is writing now.

He talks about leading with dignity and why he put pinball machines and jukeboxes in his office. They also talk about sacred places, including what Richard felt in Taos, New Mexico, and at the pyramids of Tikal in Guatemala, and how learning a second language keeps you present.

    Be Not Attached to Form: Dr. Maria Inglesby on the Advice That Came From a Pine Tree

    Send us Fan Mail Dr. Maria Katharina Inglesby is a transformational guide and author who bridges scientific rigor with an expansive understanding of consciousness. Drawing on studies in energy healing and years of deep inner inquiry, she serves as a spiritual advisor to individuals committed to conscious growth, guiding them beyond intellectual understanding into embodied self-mastery. In this episode, Maria shares how a doctorate from UC Davis and decades of measuring energy in a laboratory gave way to pranic healing, Reiki, and a very different understanding of what energy is. She tells the story of the moment everything is energy dropped into her body, how she first saw the universe inside her own heart space, and the advice she received from a pine tree she was about to have cut down: be not attached to form. Maria and Heather talk about the three phases of a transformational journey, from feeling that life is happening to you, to seeing life as a mirror, to stepping into the unified field. They explore why Maria believes going deep into the Earth star chakra comes before going high, why she says the whole zebra ascends with every aspect of self intact, and how science, spirituality, and religion can be seen as different windows onto the same ball. Maria's book, Soaring Beyond: Transcending the Known into Unbelievable Success, is available on Amazon as an e-book, softcover, and hardcover. Her website also offers a free guided journal as a downloadable PDF, with prompts for reconnecting with your own higher soul self. Learn more at https://www.MariaInglesby.com.

    Two Charts, Two Sides of You: Indra Rinzler on Vedic and Western Astrology

    Send us Fan Mail Indra Rinzler is a lifetime spiritual seeker. He offers life readings for clients using Vedic astrology, the Enneagram of Personality, Astrocartography, and the Wheel of Totality. He has studied astrology and spirituality for more than fifty years, and he works to help people live beyond their conditioned stories and more in the moment. A world traveler for twenty-five years, he lives most of the year in the foothills of Northern California and spends the winters in India. He writes, teaches, heals, and counsels, and Indra's Net is his first book. In this episode, Indra and Heather talk about what drew him to astrology in 1971, why he finds the Vedic positions more illuminating for the spiritual path, and how the Vedic and Western charts can show different sides of the same person. He shares what decades of travel in India have taught him, what he found in fifty-six countries about people being the same everywhere, and why he says every day in India is a teaching. They also talk about Indra's Net, a book of seventy-eight short stories, each connected to a tarot card, that took eight years to write and, in his words, came through him rather than from him. Indra describes his life reading, which combines the Enneagram, Vedic astrology, and the Wheel of Totality, and explains how the empty houses in a chart point to the awareness we have yet to develop. Indra is offering listeners two free gifts: your Vedic astrology chart, when you email him your birth details, and an Enneagram test that takes five to ten minutes.

    The Currency of Energy: Axay Shah on Healing Through Raw Food

    Send us Fan Mail Axay Shah is the Kirkus starred author of In Nature We Trust and the founder of Raw Foodiest. At 67, he has completed eight marathons, takes zero medications, and has over two decades of documented medical records tracking his health since transitioning to a fully raw food lifestyle. In this episode, Axay shares what led him to change his diet at 50, not out of illness, but a persistent lack of energy that doctors dismissed as normal aging. He talks through the gradual process of shifting to fruits, vegetables, nuts, and seeds, the pushback he got from family along the way, and the bloodwork he has tracked for over 21 years to document the changes in his body. Axay and Heather also talk about his views on fasting, why he believes radical lifestyle change has to happen in stages rather than all at once, and the marathon he once ran fueled by a single avocado.

With a background in bodywork and spirituality, and experience speaking at events, leading retreats, and being featured on podcasts, Cailee creates safe, non-judgmental spaces for deep emotional intimacy, honest communication, and meaningful connection.

Cailee breaks down why anger is almost always a secondary emotion protecting something more vulnerable underneath, and how triggers can point either to what still needs healing or to what you are actually passionate about. They also dig into boundaries, why the people closest to you are often your biggest teachers, and why one partner growing faster than the other does not have to mean the relationship is doomed, as long as there is gratitude and reciprocity between them.
