Resilience isn’t about never falling. It’s about learning, adapting, and choosing hope, every time. In this episode, host Peter Fenger speaks with Andy Pierce, Master Resilience Expert and founder of iBounceUp, a Honolulu-based nonprofit transforming lives in at-risk communities. Andy brings a Master's degree in Performance Psychology and extensive experience working with elite Special Operations Soldiers, Army Rangers, adults in addiction recovery, and resource caregivers. But his work with iBounceUp is deeply personal, born from his brother-in-law Matt's struggle with addiction and untimely death, the organization now serves as both a legacy and a lifeline. In this conversation, Andy reveals the five pillars of mental resilience: self-awareness, self-control, optimism, flexibility, and relationships. He shares powerful stories from Hawaii's rehab centers and sober living facilities, explains why connection matters more than curriculum, and opens up about his own near-fatal surfing accident that tested everything he teaches. Discover why being selective about who we share good news with matters, how our beliefs drive our thoughts, and why flexibility might be the most underrated resilience skill of all. This is a conversation about building strength in broken places, and why showing up consistently changes lives.

Psychedelics offer a fresh snowfall over old patterns, but only you can decide how to sled down the mountain. Education and community are essential guides for that journey. In this episode, host Sharlee Dixon speaks with Linden Schaffer, an award-winning wellness entrepreneur, bestselling author, and expert with over 20 years of experience in the wellness and psychedelic spaces. Linden is the founder of Reveal, a global online community for women, and co-founder of the Los Angeles Women's Psychedelic Community, both dedicated to creating safe and informed spaces for exploration and healing. As a member of the Global Psychedelic Society team, she advocates for responsible and inclusive practices in the psychedelic movement. Her work has been featured in Forbes, Condé Nast Traveler, and ABC News, and she has spoken on stages including The New York Times Travel Show and Google Talks. In this conversation, Linden dismantles common misconceptions about psychedelics, explains her Five S's framework for safety (screening, set, setting, support, and sustainability), and discusses why these medicines require more than a one-time experience. We explore how psychedelics can address women's unique mental health challenges—from hormonal transitions to societal pressures, and why preparation, integration, and community support are non-negotiable for transformative healing. Whether you're curious, experienced, or supporting someone on this path, this episode offers practical wisdom for navigating psychedelic spaces with intention, agency, and informed consent.
