26 Oct 2026
01:11:20
Episode Highlights With Peter
Humans are photosynthetic and why this is important to understand
Photosynthetic means synthesizing usable energy from photons
Water is photoelectric and what this means
Humans are photosynthetic because water is photoelectric
We are 99% water by molecule count and 70% by weight so we are essentially a water solar panel
Why many humans are a solar battery operating at 1% of their optimal solar energy intake
What happens with mitochondria and ATP when we interact with light
Mitochondria absorb infrared light and use this stored energy to boost cell energy
Mitochondria are photoelectric
The fourth phase of water and why this is important to our biology
Our body heals itself, and light gives us extra energy
What it might mean if sunlight makes you feel tired and get burned easily
Water is a solar panel, and melanated water is 100x better at being a solar panel
Melanin is the darkest naturally occurring molecule in nature and does much more than just protect us from sunlight and UV. it isn’t that it shields but it absorbs and converts it to electricity
The highest concentration of melanin in the body is in the middle of the brain
Hormonal implications of light exposure

What Are We Teaching Our Children About Being Human with Laurie Emery
21 Oct 2026
00:43:07
Episode Highlights With Laurie
What children are subtly learning about being human by our own presence and reactions
Our children can bump into places in us that are not resolved
What they learn about if sadness or anger is welcome even within themselves
How to shift so your child isn’t inadvertently responsible for managing our nervous system for us
The most powerful things we can model for our children and it isn’t being perfect
How can my child know what I feel without making them responsible for what I feel
Children don’t need a parent who never gets activated; they need to know that they won’t be abandoned because of the activation
How do we listen and communicate in a way where each person is taking responsibility for their perspectives
Empathy and boundaries can exist together, and the downside of doing everything for our kids is that it makes us feel good, but they learn that we don’t think they are capable
Not every childhood pattern looks dysfunctional from the outside. Maybe I became patient because anger wasn’t safe. Or I do everything because being needed feels like love
Questioning: “Am I choosing this or am I compelled to do this?”
Our job is not to make our children happy, it is to alow them to struggle and teach them they can handle it, to teach them all parts of them are welcome and they are still responsible for their actions
Moving away from reactive parenting to intentional parenting and how to repair when needed
“Who are we committed to being as a family?”
Learning and teaching the distinction between doing and being
How to repair when we don’t handle things like we wish we had

Why Knowing Your Patterns Isn’t Enough to Change Them with Laurie Emery
19 Oct 2026
00:39:21
Episode Highlights From Laurie
Why just knowing why we do something isn’t enough to shift it
Her start in psychology and what she learned through her own experience as well
How to be freer inside moments that used to run you
What does the body have to do with changing emotional patterns
It isn’t that behavioral change is unimportant; it is just a doorway, not the destination
Often, the pattern starts in the body before the mind, but we think it starts in the mind, and that we can change it only with the mind
The body becomes a doorway into slowing down and how this is so important
Can you notice what is happening inside of you without trying to change it or explain it
Experience is made up of three things: thoughts, feelings, and physical experience
What does SEE - BREATHE - STAY look like in an ordinary moment?
Differentiating what happened vs. what we make it mean
Healing in a relationship: Can I bring those old activations into the relationship
The difference between mindfulness and actually staying with ourselves in emotional moments
Being aware of not bypassing or abandoning when staying with a feeling
Not “can I get rid of this feeling” but “can I remain with myself while the feeling is still here”
We spend so much of our life trying to control our external world so we don’t have to feel certain things, and how to shift this
