In this episode, I’m joined by Sam and Ash, founders of The Unfiltered Life Co for a real, funny, and deeply honest conversation about healing, identity, and what it actually means to feel your life instead of just performing it.

We talk about the heart behind our April 18 event, but this goes way beyond logistics. It is really about the stories we carry, the labels we pick up, and the survival patterns that can quietly run the show for years.

We also get into stories of origin, emotional literacy, people pleasing, self-soothing, and the cost of staying comfortable in patterns that are no longer serving you.

This one is full of laughter, truth, and those moments that make you stop and think, oh wow, that is me. It is a beautiful reminder that healing is not about becoming someone else, it is about getting honest enough to come back to yourself.

Highlights:

(08:24) - Why we have to understand our story before we can shift the patterns

(14:42) - The truth about being “fine,” and what is usually sitting underneath it

(22:26) - If you can't name it, you can't metabolize it

(29:03) - The cost of comfort, and the habits that quietly keep us stuck

(40:51) - Why this work is not about fixing yourself, but getting honest with yourself

(46:53) - The reminder, we are not leaving anyone in shambles, we are ending on a high

In this episode, I’m joined by two of my best friends, Sam Warner and Ashley Chaney, for a lively, honest conversation about the April 18 Sweat, Stillness and Feel event in Torrance, California.

What starts as a chat about the event quickly turns into something bigger, why midlife can feel so confusing, why so many women are stuck in survival mode, and why being in the right room with the right people can be deeply healing.

We talk about emotional safety, nervous system regulation, movement, music, journaling, and the power of being seen without having to perform. This one is warm, funny, and full of heart, with real reminders that healing does not have to be dramatic to be meaningful.

Sometimes it starts with simply being in a space where you can breathe, feel, and know you are not the only one carrying hard things.

Highlights:

(02:50) - What this event is really creating for women in midlife

(05:00) - Why female community can lower stress and open the door to healing

(07:50) - The truth, you cannot outrun yourself, even with a whole new postcode

(10:00) - Why this is not about transformation, but remembering what you can hold

(15:00) - What it means to feel everything instead of shutting down

(20:53) - What the day will actually look like, from movement to stillness to feeling

In this episode, I’m joined by Eva Hooft for a fascinating conversation about what it really means to heal at the root.

We talk about chronic health struggles, nervous system overload, gut issues, mineral balance, and why doing all the “right” wellness things can still leave you feeling terrible when the deeper picture is being missed.

We also get into parasites, trauma, emotional release, and Ava’s realignment method, which brings together physical healing with somatic and nervous system work.

This one is layered, honest, and full of those moments that make you stop and rethink what health, safety, and true healing actually look like.

Highlights:

(04:01) - Eva shares how modeling and chronic illness collided

(11:26) - Why “doing everything right” can still be a trap

(16:30) - When parasite cleanses help, and when they do not

(22:21) - Why so many people stay stuck in fight or flight

(32:35) - Eva explains her realignment method

(43:17) - What healthy means to her now
