In this episode I sit down with Christopher Solomon, a somatic salvia guide based in Mendocino County, California, to explore a plant that most people either know nothing about or fear outright. Christopher walks me through his long, winding path with Salvia divinorum — from a strange first encounter in high school in Dallas to the spontaneous healing of a swollen lymph node that doctors wanted to surgically remove. We dig into why the conventional "smoke a big bowl and brace yourself" advice gets it completely backward, and how working with tiny, titrated doses paired with meditation transforms Salvia into a gentle, relational teacher rather than a terrifying five-minute ride. It's a conversation about reverence, somatic awareness, and the surprising therapeutic range of one of the most misunderstood plants out there.

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.

I sat down with Pittsburgh-based psychic, hypnotist, and past life regressionist Karen Kubicko to talk about how two near-death experiences — one during an emergency C-section and another in a car accident — blew open her spiritual gifts and set her on a path of soul-level healing work. Together we explored past life regression as a tool for breaking deep-rooted patterns like abuse cycles, fear, and anxiety, and we got into how empathic sensitivity, spirit guides, and intuition can be understood, managed, and reclaimed. This one is a grounded, practical, and deeply personal look at what it means to wake up to the truth that we are far more than our current human experience.

S2 | E1 Dr. Jodie NewDelman, Doctor of Psychology

In this conversation with Dr. Jodie NewDelman, I explore the intersection of psychology, psychedelics, trauma, and the subtle body. We unpack how dysregulation shows up in individuals and systems, why so many chronic conditions evade traditional medical explanations, and how experiential medicine can help unwind what talk therapy alone often cannot.

We discuss Internal Family Systems, ketamine-assisted psychotherapy, transference and countertransference, chronic pain as stored trauma, and the difference between temporizing symptoms and addressing root causes. Jodie offers a grounded, trauma-informed perspective on psychedelic-adjacent work and what ethical, integrated care really looks like.

S1 | E18 Amy Anesi - Dear Friend & Former Spouse

In this extended season-finale episode, I sit down with my former wife, Amy Anesi, to tell the truth about our marriage, divorce, and what came after. We speak candidly about infidelity, financial collapse, emotional trauma, and the long road of healing that followed.

Rather than re-litigating the past, we examine how conscious self-work can transform even the most painful endings into functional, respectful, and even loving relationships. Amy offers perspective I cannot access alone—calling out blind spots, grounding the narrative, and modeling what emotional maturity actually looks like.

This episode is not about having a “perfect divorce.” It’s about doing your work so the past stops running your life. If you’ve experienced heartbreak, shame, relational collapse, or feel stuck in an old story about yourself, this conversation offers a radically different possibility.

I speak with Paul Selig about his path into channeling, the teachings delivered through his Guides, and what they reveal about consciousness, fear, and divine union. We explore the Christ as a living principle within all beings, the role of free will and presence, and why awakening is an energetic shift rather than an intellectual one.
This episode offers a look at discernment, embodiment, and what it means to live from a higher octave of awareness while fully engaged in human life.
