    The Money Mirror: Why Your Bank Account Reflects Your Inner World with Elizabeth Husserl

    We will learn: Why money acts as one of our greatest spiritual teachers, if we're willing to listen How to decode the messages in your financial patterns and transform them from the inside out The surprising truth about wealth that has nothing to do with how much money you have What if your relationship with money was trying to teach you something deeper about yourself? What if every financial pattern – from overspending to under-earning, from hoarding to impulse-splurging – was actually a mirror, reflecting back your deepest beliefs and fears? This pattern isn't just about money – it shows up everywhere. Maybe you keep attracting the same types of toxic relationships. Maybe you sabotage opportunities right when things start going well. Maybe you can't let yourself enjoy success without waiting for the other shoe to drop. These patterns are trying to show us something about ourselves, if we're brave enough to look. Think about it: We've all met people who make six figures but live in constant scarcity. People who achieve their financial goals but still feel empty. People who keep making more money but never feel secure. Meanwhile, there are others who seem to radiate abundance with far less in their bank accounts. What's the difference? Our guest today is Elizabeth Husserl, a financial adviser who brings a refreshingly holistic approach to wealth. She's the author of a groundbreaking book that explores the psychology of money and teaches us how to transform our relationship with abundance from the inside out.

    Hidden Beliefs Running Your Life And How to Change Them with Shelly Lefkoe

    We will learn: The crucial difference between beliefs and patterns (and why most people get stuck working on the wrong one) How to eliminate limiting beliefs in hours instead of years — validated by research The surprising truth about how childhood experiences create your adult survival strategies (and how to finally break free from them) How many times have you sworn to break a pattern, only to find yourself living it out again — in an entirely new way?  We walk around thinking we're in control of our choices. But what if those big decisions about money, relationships, how much you think you're worth — what if those were actually decided by old family wounds you don't even remember? Let me give you some science to back this up. Research shows that 95% of what we do every day comes from our subconscious mind. Think about that. While you're over here setting goals and making vision boards, your subconscious is running the show based on programs it picked up years ago. But listen — these patterns aren't permanent. The cycle can stop with you. Not through forcing yourself to "think positive" or trying to white-knuckle your way through change. It's about actually rewiring your brain's response to those old memories. Today our guest is Shelly Lefkoe, co-founder of the Lefkoe Institute. She's helped over 30,000 people break free from long-standing patterns like procrastination, fear, and relationship issues by going straight to the root cause — their limiting beliefs. And here's what's wild: she can help eliminate these beliefs in just hours. I know that sounds too good to be true, but her work has been validated by independent research from the University of Arizona and published in peer-reviewed journals.

    Struggling to Get Pregnant? The Mind-Body Connection Your Fertility Doctor Isn't Talking About with Dr. Gabriela Rosa

    We will learn: The science-backed connection between your mindset and your fertility (and why most doctors never mention this) Specific action steps you can take right now to optimize your fertility journey How to transform your relationship with your body from adversary to ally, even when you feel like it's failing you   Raise your hand if your fertility journey has not gone exactly as planned. I know there are hands going up everywhere right now - in cars, in kitchens, on morning walks, in offices. Maybe you've been trying for months – or years – with no success. Maybe you got pregnant easily before, and now you're facing loss after loss. Or maybe you're just starting out, and nothing is working the way you thought it would. Here's what's wild – about one in six couples struggles with fertility. That's way more common than most people think. But you know what? That number doesn't tell the whole story. It doesn't show the nights you've cried yourself to sleep, or how hard it is to scroll through social media seeing pregnancy announcement after pregnancy announcement.  Let me tell you something I've learned the hard way – your body doesn't care if you've had easy pregnancies before. It doesn't care about your perfect timing or your vision board or your five-year plan. Some of us struggle for years to see that first positive test. Others, like me, get blindsided by loss after things have been easy. Some of us dive deep into fertility treatments, while others keep hearing those frustrating words: "unexplained infertility." But here's the truth – and I want you to really hear this – there's no competition in this pain. Whether you've been trying for five years or you've had multiple losses in one year, whether you're just starting this journey or feeling like you're losing hope – your story matters. Your pain is real. And that tiny spark of hope you're holding onto? Keep holding on. Today our guest is Dr. Gabriela Rosa, a world-renowned fertility specialist who's helped thousands of couples overcome what seemed like impossible odds to create their families. With over two decades of experience, she brings together cutting-edge reproductive science with a deep understanding of how our mental and emotional state impacts our fertility.

    The Alcohol Myth That Kept Me 'Fun' But Small with Dustin Dunbar

    We will learn: The surprising science behind how alcohol affects your social confidence – even after just a couple drinks A fresh approach to navigating social situations that doesn't require liquid courage The unexpected link between everyday stress and drinking habits – and how to break free from this cycle once and for all Have you ever had that moment when you're a few drinks in, feeling like the conversation is flowing perfectly... but the next morning you find yourself overthinking every single thing you said? You weren't even drunk – just "socially lubricated" enough to wonder if maybe you talked a little too much, laughed a little too loud, or shared a little too freely. Here's what's fascinating – recent studies show that millennials and Gen Z are leading a quiet revolution in drinking culture. Alcohol consumption among young adults has dropped by 20% in the last decade. They're asking the questions many of us have been afraid to ask: Why is having a drink in hand the default setting for every social gathering? But here's where it gets really interesting – 70% of people who rely heavily on alcohol have underlying stuff they haven't dealt with. Not necessarily major trauma – sometimes it's just the accumulated stress of life, social anxiety, or patterns we picked up growing up. When you really think about it, alcohol isn't solving these challenges; it's just putting them on pause. Today our guest is Dustin Dunbar, founder of the Alcohol-Free Revolution and author of a groundbreaking new book that's challenging everything we think we know about drinking culture. After watching alcohol's subtle but persistent influence through three generations of his family, Dustin didn't just break free from these patterns – he's starting a movement that's helping thousands rediscover what genuine connection feels like without the buzz.

    How to Build Relationships That Actually Fill You Up with Sah D’Simone

    In this episode, you'll learn: How to build authentic relationships that fit your current life stage (no time machine required) The difference between being connected and feeling connected (they're not the same thing) Practical ways to deepen relationships and create new ones, no matter how busy or complicated your life is Have you ever noticed how loneliness shows up differently as we move through life? Maybe in your twenties it hit you at 4 AM when you realized your party crew wasn't really there for you. Or maybe it's hitting you now, in your thirties or forties, when you're staring at your phone wondering when making friends got so damn complicated. Here's what nobody tells you about growing up: connection gets trickier. Maybe you're married with kids, and your idea of social life is trading war stories with other parents at pickup. Or you're single, watching your friends disappear into their domestic lives while you're still trying to figure out where to meet people who aren't swiping right. Or you've got that high-powered career you worked so hard for, but somewhere between the promotion and the corner office, your friendships started feeling like another item on your to-do list. The science behind this is fascinating. Research shows that our social connections peak in our mid-twenties, then start declining steadily. By our mid-thirties, many of us have less than half the social connections we had a decade earlier. But here's the thing – our need for genuine connection doesn't decrease. If anything, it gets stronger. Today our guest is Sah D'Simone, a spiritual teacher who understands this evolution of connection. After his own journey from surface-level relationships to creating deep, meaningful bonds at every stage of life, he now guides others through the complex landscape of modern connection.

    Shattering the Illusion of Control: A Masterclass in Conscious Creation with TJ Woodward

    We will learn: How to spot and break out of subconscious loops that keep you stuck Practical ways to start consciously creating a life that’s actually yours Tools for creating real, lasting change in every part of your life One day, you’re wild, free, spontaneous—living each moment like anything could happen next. And then, before you know it, you wake up and realize… you’re living the same day for the 5,000th time. It doesn’t happen all at once. At first, that routine feels comfortable, like you’ve finally got things under control. But soon enough, it’s like you’re stuck on a loop. The same habits, the same thoughts, the same patterns keep showing up. And every time you try to break free or make a change, it’s like you’re right back where you started. If you’ve ever felt trapped in a loop like that, you know how it feels. Maybe for you, it’s not something visible, like an addiction or habit. Maybe it’s quieter—a fear that keeps you from making bold choices, a doubt that stops you from trying new things, or just the weight of knowing that you’re not living life on your terms. So how do we break the cycle? How do we step out of these old loops and start creating something real, something that feels like ours? Today our guest is TJ Woodward, a transformational coach and author who dives into the power of conscious creation. TJ’s work is all about unraveling the patterns that keep us in autopilot mode so we can take back control, break free from our loops, and start living fully. TJ is a featured thought-leader on WholeHearted.org along with Brené Brown, Marianne Williamson, Dr. Gabor Maté, and Mark Lundholm.

    Rising Above Darkness: Suicide Prevention and Building Resilient Minds with Niyc Pidgeon

    We will learn: How positive psychology techniques can be applied to prevent suicide and improve overall mental health. Practical strategies, including Niyc's "333 system," that you can start using today to build resilience and cope with life's challenges. The importance of creating meaningful connections and how small daily actions can make a significant difference in mental well-being. Have you ever noticed how we tend to avoid talking about suicide until it's too late? It's a topic that many of us shy away from, perhaps because it's uncomfortable, or maybe because we think it won't touch our lives. But the truth is, it affects more of us than we realize. The thing is, when it comes to suicide, we often tell ourselves that hindsight is 20/20. We say, "If only we had known, we could have done something." But is that really true? Or is it just a comforting lie we tell ourselves to ease the pain of loss and helplessness? The reality is, we don't have to wait for hindsight. We can take action now. We can learn to recognize the signs, to have those difficult conversations, to create environments where people feel safe opening up about their struggles. But it's not just about recognizing when someone is in crisis. It's about building a society where mental health is prioritized, where seeking help is normalized, and where we all have the tools to support ourselves and each other through life's challenges. Our guest today is Niyc Pidgeon, an award-winning Positive Psychologist, Keynote Speaker, Business Mentor, and author of the book, "One More Day." She is the Founder of The Positive Psychology Coach Academy CertificationⓇ Program and is on a mission to help a billion people become more mentally healthy.
