In this episode, I sit down with Katie Simons — a doctor of pharmacy turned hypnotherapist, somatic breathwork facilitator, and psychedelic medicine guide — for one of the most wide-ranging and personally resonant conversations I've had on the show. We trace her journey from a decade inside the VA healthcare system to stepping fully into the healing space, and dig deep into psychedelics, nervous system regulation, integration, and what it actually means to be healed.

In this episode, I sit down with Luke Lindstrom — intuitive healer, channel, and peer support worker — who I met at a Paul Selig workshop here in Chicago. Luke shares his remarkable journey from a deeply shut-down, isolated teenager in the suburbs of Detroit to a 28-year-old who channels higher guidance and works daily with some of the most marginalized members of our community. We talk about somatic therapy, the healing power of aloneness, conscious channeling, pornography addiction, romantic relationships, and what it really means to treat every human being as an extension of yourself.

In this episode, I sit down with Christopher Sunyata—engineer, Buddhist meditation teacher, and men’s coach—to explore what it really means to embody grounded masculine presence.

We talk about trauma, breath, kundalini energy, polarity, multi-orgasmic potential for men, and the profound link between sexuality and spiritual awakening. Christopher shares how bullying, a near-death childhood experience, divorce, fatherhood, psychotherapy, psychedelics, and decades of practice shaped the man he is today.

This is a conversation about safety in the body, depth in relationship, and reclaiming sexuality as a path of consciousness—not performance.
