- with Dr Ayat Mekki - Healing the Past, Trusting the Present, Understanding Your Triggers, and Creating What You Truly Want
Saison 2 · Épisode 48
mardi 25 novembre 2025 • Durée 46:00
Y all, this conversation lit me up.
Dr Ayat Mekki is one of those women who speaks and you instantly feel your whole body soften, straighten up, and lean in.
She shares so much wisdom on emotional healing, subconscious patterns, and manifesting in a way that feels like someone finally turned the lights on.
Talking to her reminded me that we all have these old stories running in the background, and the second we see them clearly, things start shifting fast.
We also got into why chaos can feel familiar, why peace can feel almost too quiet, and how we repeat the same relationship patterns until we learn what we are meant to learn.
I felt seen, called in, and weirdly comforted. I think you will too.
Highlights:
(01:45) Medical doctor to subconscious healer
(06:12) The real meaning of manifestation and why it is not about wishful thinking
(14:40) Clues that childhood wounds might be steering the show
(23:01) When peace feels uncomfortable and why your nervous system reacts that way
(34:10) What generational patterns look like and how healing affects seven future generations
(47:15) The biggest lesson Dr Ayat took away from hosting her retreat

Hey y’all,
This week, I’m talking with Jim Carter III - powerhouse tech founder, AI strategist, and the guy who’s literally building the future.
Jim has helped everyone from Tony Robbins to Gary V harness AI to grow smarter, faster, and with more freedom.
In this episode, we strip away the hype and talk about what AI really means for creativity, parenting, education, and everyday life.
Jim shares why it’s not about replacing humans but freeing us to do more of what actually matters. He even lets us peek inside his “digital clone” - a fully trained AI version of his brain.
This one’s both mind-blowing and strangely comforting.
Highlights:
(03:15) – What AI really is (and how long it’s been shaping our daily lives)

mardi 21 octobre 2025 • Durée 01:01:23
Hey Y’all.
Today I’m chatting with my friend and total movement badass, Cecily Milne - the woman behind Yoga Detour.
Cecily’s the kind of teacher who makes you question everything you thought you knew about yoga and movement in the best way possible.
We get into why mediocrity has become mainstream, what chasing validation can do to us, and how becoming a mum flipped everything she thought she knew about her body and business.
It’s raw, funny, real, and full of those “oh wow, same” moments.
Highlights:
(05:31) Mediocrity is mainstream - and why that’s a problem
(18:42) How ballet and validation shaped Cecily’s yoga journey

Okay y’all, today’s episode is a good one.
I’ve got Stephanie Crassweller here to talk all things menopause and metabolism - and she makes it so simple you’ll wonder why nobody explained it like this before.
We’re getting into how your body decides what’s stressful, why fat loss isn’t just calories in and out, and the very happy news that carbs are officially back on the cool list.
This is one of those conversations that’s packed with info but still totally doable, and I know you’re going to walk away feeling a whole lot clearer about what’s actually going on in your body.
Highlights:
(05:07) Your body decides what counts as stress
(12:39) Why “eat less, move more” doesn’t always work
