Episode 133: Rebuilding Faith After Generational Trauma with Brooke Deanne

In this deeply powerful episode of Wellness in Every Season, Autumn Carter sits down with Brooke Deanne—RTT Therapist, Trauma Recovery Coach, and founder of Life Coaching Goddess—to explore the complex layers of healing from religious trauma, abuse, and profound loss. Brooke courageously shares her lived experience as a third-generation cult survivor, her journey through a 17-year abusive relationship, and the grief that followed the death of her children’s father.

With unwavering honesty, Brooke opens up about how leaving a high-control religion and toxic marriage at the same time left her shattered and adrift—but also cracked her open to find something more authentic. Her story weaves through the realities of childhood sexual abuse, generational trauma, and the search for spiritual meaning after betrayal. Through tools like Rapid Transformational Therapy (RTT), hypnotherapy, somatic work, and deep inner exploration, Brooke found her way back to herself—and now helps others do the same.

This conversation offers a safe space for listeners who are working through the invisible threads of trauma passed down across generations, who feel trapped in a story that isn’t their own, and who are longing to reclaim their identity, faith, and peace. Autumn and Brooke explore what it means to create safety in the body, how to rewire limiting beliefs, and why knowing how your brain operates can be a key to freedom.

If you’ve felt disconnected from your own story, or wondered if healing is even possible, let this be your invitation to begin again. Healing isn’t linear, and it isn’t quick—but it is worth it. And it is possible.

In this thought-provoking episode, Autumn Carter explores the ever-evolving world of artificial intelligence and asks a timely, complex question: Can AI truly replace the guidance of a human coach, consultant, or therapist? As a certified life and parenting coach, Autumn shares personal insights, real-world examples, and even a conversation between ChatGPT and her own child to highlight what AI can and cannot offer when it comes to emotional support, intuitive insight, and meaningful change.

You’ll hear about the subtle nuances that separate human mentors from machines—empathy, memory, ethical responsibility, and the ability to hold space for discomfort and growth. Autumn walks through scenarios where AI may offer convenience but falls short in offering connection, accountability, and transformational breakthroughs. She also provides a mindful grounding practice to explore how you’re personally reacting to AI’s increasing presence in your world.

If you’ve been leaning on AI tools for answers, this episode will gently challenge you to reflect on where real support still matters—and why your human experiences deserve to be witnessed by another human. With coaching questions and practical takeaways, Autumn reminds us that technology is powerful, but presence is irreplaceable.

As the heat of August settles in and summer nears its close, this solo episode invites you to pause and reflect alongside the rhythms of nature. Join Autumn Carter, certified life and parenting coach, as she explores what it means to harvest wellness—emotionally, spiritually, and environmentally—through the gentle lens of gardening. Whether you cultivate plants or not, this episode speaks to the seasons within us all.

Through vivid storytelling and coaching insight, Autumn unpacks the quiet wisdom of tomatoes ripening on the vine, the meditative act of weeding, and the sacred shift from full bloom to fading leaves. This time of year is less about starting something new and more about tending, maintaining, and gently celebrating what’s already growing in your life. You’ll be guided through a visualization practice to embrace what is ripe and ready within you and encouraged to reflect on areas of life that may need attention, pruning, or letting go.

This episode touches on emotional wellness, spiritual insight, and even offers a taste of environmental wellness and social connection. From strawberry chores with kids to spiritual grounding in the dirt, you’ll find inspiration to check in with yourself, release perfectionism, and reconnect with your pace and purpose. August might not be flashy—but in its quiet maturity, it holds a mirror to how far you’ve come.

If you’re longing for clarity, connection, or simply permission to slow down, this episode is a nurturing reminder that you’re not behind—you’re exactly where you need to be.

Episode 129: The Suicide Monk — A Journey of Hope and Healing

In this powerful and vulnerable episode, I sit down with Britton Day, the voice behind The Suicide Monk podcast, to explore the tender, complex, and often misunderstood terrain of suicidal ideation, trauma, recovery, and spiritual rebirth. From the depths of his darkest moments—including the day he planned to end his life—to his decision to start a podcast that offers others a space to be seen, Britton’s story is raw and real, yet filled with resilience and light.

This conversation holds space for grief and pain but gently points toward healing and reconnection—with self, others, and something greater. We talk about what it means to walk with someone in their pain instead of trying to fix it, how shame can silently fuel rage, and why presence, not perfection, saves lives. Britton shares how psilocybin therapy helped him dismantle childhood defenses, how respect-based boundaries transformed his relationships, and how daily surrender and spiritual practices anchor his new life.

As someone who has personally felt the heavy impact of suicide within my own family, this episode is especially meaningful. Britton and I both open up about our childhood wounds, the path to self-forgiveness, and how parenting—and our inner child—can teach us about growth, grace, and love.

This is not an episode for children or for casual listening. It’s for those who want to understand, to walk beside, and to feel a little less alone in the heaviness. It’s about making space for truth and transformation. If you’re in a dark place, or walking with someone who is, I hope you hear hope in these words and know that your story still matters.

You can follow Britton’s work and watch his podcast on YouTube at The Suicide Monk 07. He also shares regularly on Instagram, TikTok, and Facebook.

If this episode resonates with you, please share it with someone who might need it. And if it stirred something deep, know that you can always reach out to me. I’m here to listen and walk with you.

Trigger Warning: This episode discusses suicide, trauma, and abuse. Listener discretion is advised.

Episode 128: Maladaptive Daydreaming to Visualization

In this reflective and restorative episode of Wellness in Every Season, we gently shift from the restless pull of maladaptive daydreaming into the grounded power of intentional visualization. If you’ve ever caught yourself escaping into vivid fantasies that leave you feeling disconnected from your real life, this episode offers a healing reframe—one that turns imagination into a tool for alignment rather than avoidance.

Autumn Carter guides you through a calming, full-body visualization rooted in mindfulness and breath. Inspired by A Year of Miracles by Marianne Williamson, this practice invites you to observe your current reality without judgment, then slowly transition into picturing the life you truly long for—the version of your life that feels authentic, aligned, and deeply nourishing.

This isn’t about chasing fantasy. It’s about returning to yourself with clarity, softness, and intention. You’ll explore how your dream life feels, looks, and sounds in all eight dimensions of wellness, and then gently anchor that vision into your nervous system with breath and presence.

Autumn also shares journal prompts to help you unpack what you’ve seen and felt, and offers a simple daily lifehack to keep your vision alive and active—even in the busiest of seasons.

If you’ve ever felt stuck between who you are and who you want to become, this episode offers a bridge—one paved with compassion, breath, and the belief that your dreams are worth exploring, not escaping into.

Episode 127: Decoding Health: Oils, Nutrition, and Udo’s Wellness Wisdom

What if everything you thought you knew about oils and nutrition was missing a deeper truth?

In this powerful conversation, I’m joined by Udo Erasmus, Health and Human Nature Educator, founder of Udo’s Choice, and the brilliant mind behind Fats That Heal, Fats That Kill. Together, we explore how oils can either harm or heal depending on how they’re processed—and what that means for our skin, brain, energy, and long-term health.

Udo’s story begins with wartime trauma and a later experience of pesticide poisoning, which launched his passionate search for total health grounded in nature and human nature. From there, we discuss his creation of a carefully formulated oil blend and his take on what’s missing from the modern wellness conversation. He also walks us through his 10 steps to whole health, offering a vision of wellness that touches the emotional, environmental, physical, and spiritual.

⚠️ At the beginning of this episode, I offer a clarification about some claims presented. While many of Udo’s insights are deeply rooted in personal experience and scientific interest, not all statements reflect current research consensus. Please listen with curiosity and consult your healthcare provider when making changes to your wellness routine.

Episode 126: Nightly Check-In: Listening to Your Inner World

In this soothing nighttime episode of Wellness in Every Season, Autumn Carter invites you to slip into your comfiest pajamas, turn down the lights, and settle into a guided evening ritual that nourishes the soul. Designed to become a daily practice, this episode is a gentle exploration of your inner world through the calming lens of parts work, somatic awareness, and mindful breathing.

As the day winds down, you’ll be guided through a full-body scan to soften tension and reconnect with your body’s quiet wisdom. Autumn shares how parts work—those many inner voices that hold our worries, hopes, and responsibilities—can become companions around an inner campfire, simply asking to be heard. You’ll be invited to create a safe mental space, listen with curiosity rather than judgment, and ask the powerful question: what else?

With seasonal breathing to quiet the mind, gentle prompts to meet the parts of you that long for attention, and soft affirmations to close the day, this episode becomes more than just audio—it becomes a nightly sanctuary. Whether you’re holding tension in your shoulders, racing with thoughts about tomorrow, or carrying emotions unspoken, this space is for you.

Let this episode cradle you into rest. Let your breath return you home. Let the quiet parts speak.

Episode 125: How Wellness and Beauty Intersect with Tamara

In this deeply personal and inspiring episode of Wellness in Every Season, I sit down with a woman who has made a profound impact on my own life and beauty journey—Tamara Manahan, owner and founder of Tamara & Company. What began as a quest for smudge-proof eyeliner became so much more when I met Tamara: a connection rooted in soul-level care, a powerful story of following divine nudges, and a reminder that beauty can be deeply healing.

Tamara shares how her unexpected journey into permanent makeup began not as a business venture, but as a calling—a response born in a hospital waiting room during her father’s battle with stage 4 lymphoma. What unfolded after that moment is nothing short of divine alignment, leading her to create a studio of transformation and connection in the heart of Gettysburg. We talk about the emotional and psychological impact of wellness-aligned beauty, the sacred space she holds for each of her clients, and how honoring your reflection can help you reclaim a piece of your identity.

Whether you’re curious about permanent makeup, drawn to stories of faith-led business building, or just need a reminder that you’re allowed to take up space and be seen, this conversation is for you. We explore how the eight dimensions of wellness often overlap, how beauty rituals can become acts of self-respect, and how choosing to follow a calling can open doors you never imagined.

Tamara’s presence is grounding, nurturing, and full of wisdom. She speaks candidly about stretch marks, aging, identity, and the unique needs of each client. You’ll walk away from this episode not only knowing more about permanent beauty services, but about the beautiful ripple effect of listening to your heart—even when it makes no sense on paper.

Listen in, feel seen, and discover how beauty and wellness truly intersect.

In Episode 124 of Wellness in Every Season, Autumn Carter gently guides you through a deeply personal and profoundly helpful conversation about stress, its effects, and how to release it through practical and holistic techniques. With honesty and warmth, Autumn shares from her own life—including the emotional aftermath of a car accident and the everyday chaos of parenting four young children—to show how stress doesn’t have to control us. Instead, it can be a powerful signal to slow down, realign, and come back home to ourselves.

This episode explores the dual nature of stress, recognizing that while it can motivate and drive growth, it also carries the potential to harm our physical and emotional well-being when left unchecked. Through stories, self-reflection, and supportive encouragement, Autumn offers a refreshing perspective: stress is not who you are—it’s just one part of you.

Listeners are invited into a restorative body scan and breathwork practice, where they reconnect with their physical selves and listen to what their bodies are trying to say. This episode is filled with empowering questions to reflect on: Where do you feel stress in your body? What parts of you need to be heard? What do you need to add to your life—not just remove—to create lasting relief? And what would your most peaceful, well self ask for if it could speak?

You’ll walk away from this episode not only with grounding tools for daily life, but also with the reminder that you’re allowed to feel seen, held, and supported—even in the midst of the busiest seasons. Whether you’re just beginning your wellness journey or you’re looking for new ways to deepen it, this episode is a powerful invitation to pause, recalibrate, and embrace the kind of peace that transforms from the inside out.

This isn’t about chasing youth with cosmetic fixes. It’s about cultivating a vibrant, fulfilling life by intentionally nurturing every part of yourself. Autumn dives deep into the eight dimensions of wellness—emotional, social, professional, environmental, spiritual, financial, physical, and psychological—and shows how small, consistent shifts in these areas can lead to more energy, greater clarity, and even a more youthful glow.

Through honest reflections, personal stories, and a grounding body scan practice, Autumn helps you pause and reflect on what’s really out of balance in your life. She shares insights from her own journey, including how she’s recovered from physical setbacks, built nourishing routines, and prioritized rest, connection, and joy.

In Episode 121 of Wellness in Every Season, Autumn Carter sits down with Lori Brand, author of the gripping thriller Bodies to Die For, for a raw and eye-opening conversation about the often invisible yet deeply damaging war women wage on their bodies—and each other. Lori brings a fascinating perspective drawn from her journey as a former gymnast, stripper, bodybuilder, and fitness writer turned engineer and novelist. Her lived experience weaves through every part of this episode as she unpacks how diet culture, societal expectations, and the pursuit of unattainable beauty ideals leave lasting scars, even on those who appear to have “made it.”

Together, Lori and Autumn dig into the quiet cruelties women endure and perpetuate—often without even realizing it. They talk about the haunting impact of early body shame, the power of strength training to reclaim self-worth, and the internal shifts that come when we stop chasing someone else’s version of beauty and finally come home to our own power. Lori shares the chilling inspiration behind her novel, revealing how real-life internet comment wars sparked her fictional body war thriller, and how the story speaks to the deeper truth that getting strong is the answer—not shrinking.

This episode is more than just a conversation about a book. It’s a call to examine how we talk to ourselves, how we model self-worth to our children, and how healing begins when we stop measuring our value by a number on a scale or likes on a post. Whether you’ve struggled with body image, are trying to raise body-positive kids, or just want to be part of changing the culture for the next generation, this conversation will stir your heart and awaken something fierce and liberating within you.

To follow Lori Brand’s work, you can find her on Instagram at @loribrandwritesandlifts and visit her website at LoriBrandWrites.com. Her book Bodies to Die For is available wherever books are sold, including Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and Target. Lori is also happy to join your book club—in person for Chicagoland readers or virtually everywhere else.

This is part of my new program, End the Chore Wars. You can purchase it here. 

In Episode 120 of Wellness in Every Season, we take a heartfelt dive into a subject that touches nearly every home but is often overlooked—the unequal distribution of chores and child-rearing responsibilities. Autumn Carter, certified wellness and parenting coach, opens up about her personal journey through the lens of the Fair Play Method, and explores why it often falls short in practice, especially for women and primary caregivers.

Autumn shares vivid stories from her own life, including the early days of motherhood, her educational path in applied health, and the shift from feeling overwhelmed and unseen to reclaiming balance and structure through intentional delegation. This episode offers both a reality check and a call to action: how can families truly share the mental load, rather than simply reshuffling responsibilities in a way that continues to burden the more nurturing or feminine partner?

With real-world examples, scientific insight, and reflective coaching questions, Autumn challenges listeners to rethink what “help” in the household should look like and why including children in the chore dynamic isn’t just helpful, it’s essential for their growth. She paints an emotionally resonant picture of what it feels like to have a never-ending to-do list filled with things that drain rather than energize you, and she invites listeners to pause, visualize, and reimagine their homes as spaces of shared responsibility and personal empowerment.

Listeners are guided through a gentle mindfulness exercise to explore what’s not working, where energy is leaking, and what needs to be released in order to make room for deeper family unity, personal self-care, and even long-held dreams. Whether you’re part of a two-parent household, a single parent navigating it all, or somewhere in between, this episode offers compassionate insight and real solutions.

Explore how chore equity can become a path to wellness, deeper intimacy, and stronger family bonds—and discover how Autumn’s upcoming program aims to make this process work for every member of the household, not just the most overwhelmed one.

In Episode 111 of Wellness in Every Season, I’m inviting you into a conversation that I truly believe could change the way you view pain and your body’s ability to heal. I know so many of you are carrying the weight of chronic pain—whether it’s a constant ache in your back, tension in your shoulders that never quite goes away, or something deeper that painkillers only seem to mask but never truly fix. I get it because I’ve been there too. After my car accident, I found myself desperate for relief, and I know firsthand how exhausting it can be to feel like nothing is working. That’s why I’m so grateful to bring you this conversation with Dr. Njideka Olatunde.

Dr. Njideka is a naturopathic healthcare practitioner with over forty years of experience helping people break free from pain without relying on medication. Her approach is gentle yet powerful—she works with the natural systems of the body through reflexology and the power of touch to unlock the body’s own healing capabilities. But what stood out to me the most during our conversation was her deep understanding that pain is not just physical. It’s connected to our stress, our emotions, and the way we carry the burdens of life in our bodies.

This episode is for you if you’re tired of feeling stuck in the cycle of pain and pills. It’s for you if you’re ready to listen to your body in a way you maybe never have before. It’s for you if you’re longing for relief but also craving a deeper connection to yourself and your well-being.

Dr. Njideka’s wisdom reminded me that we all have this beautiful, built-in power to care for ourselves. Sometimes we just need someone to show us how to tap into it. So, if you’re struggling, I want you to know—you are not alone. There is hope. There is another way. And I am so glad you’re here.

Tune in to learn more about reflexology, the power of touch, and how you can start feeling better—naturally. If this conversation speaks to you, I’d love to hear from you. You can find me at wellnessineveryseason.com, and Dr. Njideka is available at focusonhealing.com. She’s also offering a special gift to our listeners—a free download called Holistic Approach to Health and Wellness, which you can grab here.

You deserve to feel good. You deserve to feel cared for. Let this be the first step toward finding that relief. I’m cheering you on every step of the way.

In this transformative episode, I sit down with Dr. Flora Waples, an Ivy League-trained physician with over 15 years of experience in aesthetics, wellness, and hormone replacement therapy. Together, we unravel the journey that led Dr. Waples from the high-stakes world of emergency medicine to opening RESTOR Medical Spa, a sanctuary for regenerative and non-toxic aesthetic solutions.

Dr. Waples opens up about her personal health struggles during perimenopause, detailing how weight gain, exhaustion, and the emotional toll of her demanding career pushed her to seek a better path. She shares how this journey ultimately led her to regenerative medicine—a field focused on working with the body’s natural processes to rejuvenate from the inside out. From innovative bio-fillers created from your own blood plasma to hormone optimization that can reverse the metabolic decline so many experience in midlife, Dr. Waples describes how we can age with vitality, beauty, and strength.

We discuss what makes regenerative aesthetics different from traditional injectables and how these treatments help the body rebuild its own tissues for a more natural and lasting result. Dr. Waples also explains the pivotal role hormones play in energy levels, weight management, and overall well-being. She shares her expertise on GLP-1 medications and their life-changing impact on metabolic health, emphasizing that these advancements are not just about appearance—they are about reducing inflammation and giving people their lives back.

Whether you’re curious about non-toxic beauty treatments, seeking answers to unexplained fatigue, or searching for ways to reclaim your vitality, this conversation offers hope and practical solutions. Dr. Waples reminds us that while we can’t control the passage of time, we have more power than ever to decide how we age.

In Episode 94 of Wellness in Every Season, we explore the surprisingly transformative act of self-complimenting. Often overlooked, this practice of acknowledging our strengths and qualities offers profound benefits for personal growth and emotional resilience. In a world that often prizes humility over self-recognition, self-complementing can feel awkward or unfamiliar, yet its impact on self-worth and mental wellness is undeniable. By recognizing our own strengths, we cultivate inner peace, build resilience, and nurture a kinder relationship with ourselves.

In today’s episode, I guide you through practical exercises to incorporate self-complementing into your daily life, from simple affirmations in the mirror to reflecting on your accomplishments. This episode isn’t just about “feeling good”—it’s about creating a sustainable habit of self-appreciation that builds confidence and self-trust. We also discuss the ripple effect this mindset shift can create in our interactions, inspiring positive reinforcement in those around us. As we journey through this practice together, you’ll learn to transform self-criticism into compassion, setting a powerful foundation for a balanced and resilient approach to life.

Tune in as we delve into the habit of self-complementing, practical ways to make it a part of your day, and a mindfulness practice to help release lingering self-doubt. Let’s embark on this path of self-recognition, creating an inner environment where you feel uplifted, empowered, and ready to face life with confidence.

In this episode, I’m joined by Elizabeth Plancon, an Intuitive Manifestation Activator and Mentor who is passionate about helping others live fulfilling lives through the power of mindset and manifestation. Elizabeth’s journey into this work began with a deep pull toward a higher purpose—to guide others in transforming their lives, just as she did through the practices of mindset shifts and manifestation.

Elizabeth shares how these practices not only changed her life but inspired her to become a co-author of the international best-selling book Manifesting With Purpose. She is also a healer, specializing in energy and emotional release. In our conversation, Elizabeth opens up about how these tools have influenced her as a mother, specifically in teaching her children emotional intelligence, gratitude, and the importance of a positive mindset.

Sherelle is also a bestselling author of By the Light of the Moon, an anthology that explores women's journeys of inspiration and spirituality. You can find her book at Amazon and Barnes and Noble. Additionally, Sherelle hosts her own podcast titled It Gets Better From Here, where she empowers divorced women and single moms to embrace their power and heal through the process.
