    The Things No One Taught Us About Healing Through Nature With Yasmeen Faraj

    In this episode of The Things No One Taught Us, I sit down with therapist and holistic practitioner Yasmeen Faraj for a deeply grounding conversation about reconnecting with nature, plant medicine, nervous system healing, and the wisdom our bodies already hold. Together, we explore how modern life has disconnected us from the natural world — and how slowing down, becoming present, and reconnecting with the earth can support emotional, physical, and spiritual healing. Yasmeen shares her personal journey with chronic illness, anxiety, gut health struggles, and how discovering herbalism and holistic healing transformed her life. We also talk about: The connection between nature and nervous system regulation Healing anxiety and gut health through holistic practices How plants can support emotional wellbeing Why presence is so powerful for healing Simple ways to reconnect with nature in everyday life Intuition, mindfulness, and learning to listen to your body The emotional and spiritual wisdom that exists in the natural world This conversation is a beautiful reminder that healing doesn’t always have to be complicated. Sometimes the medicine we need has been around us all along.

    The Things No One Taught Us About the Stories We Subconsciously Live By With Jenna Fontanez

    What if the way you think, react, and move through your life… isn’t actually who you are—but a collection of subconscious patterns you learned long ago? In this episode, I’m joined by the incredible Jenna Fontanez, hypnosis healer and subconscious rewiring expert, for a deep and eye-opening conversation about the stories we subconsciously live by—and how to change them. We talk about how our core beliefs are formed in childhood (sometimes through experiences that seem small or insignificant), how those beliefs shape our identity, and why we can feel stuck in patterns that don’t actually reflect who we truly are. Jenna shares how subconscious work and nervous system regulation go hand in hand, and how healing at the root creates real, lasting change—not just temporary relief. If you’ve ever wondered:– Why you react the way you do– Why certain triggers keep showing up– Or how to actually shift the patterns you’ve been carrying This episode will give you a whole new perspective. ✨ Inside this episode:• Subconscious patterns and how they’re formed• The power of identity and language (“I am” vs. “I feel”)• Inner child work and rewriting past experiences• Nervous system regulation and emotional triggers• Intuition vs. fear—how to tell the difference• Why healing doesn’t have to be heavy to be effective This is the kind of work that changes everything—from how you show up for yourself, to how you show up for your family. 🌿 Connect with Jenna: Website: https://www.healingwithjenna.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/_healing_with_jenna_/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/HealingWithJennaLLC/?ref=NONE_xav_ig_profile_page_web 🌿 Connect with Me: Instagram: If this episode resonated with you, share it with someone who needs it, and don’t forget to follow the show so you never miss an episode.

    The Things No One Taught us About Answering Your Calling When you Can't see the Whole Path with Narek Bagdat

    In this episode, I’m sitting down with someone who has witnessed my life for decades—and who I’ve had the privilege of watching completely transform her own. Narek Bagdat shares her journey from climbing the corporate ladder… to moving across the world to Dubai… to being laid off and choosing not to spiral—but to listen. What followed wasn’t a perfectly planned pivot. It was a series of intuitive decisions, uncomfortable moments, and deep inner work that led her to create a life rooted in purpose, movement, and connection through her wellness brand, Evoq Wellness. We talk about what it really feels like to outgrow your old life, the identity shifts that come with starting over, and the courage it takes to trust yourself when nothing feels certain. This conversation is for you if:– You feel like something is missing in your life or career– You’re craving more alignment but don’t know where to start– You’re in a season of transition, uncertainty, or rebuilding– You keep hearing that quiet inner voice… and you’re finally ready to listen Because sometimes, what feels like everything falling apart… is actually life redirecting you somewhere better.
