Filmmaker and Thrive co-founder Gary Turner joins Jennifer for a grounded conversation about what it means to witness human pain, resilience, and transformation with care. Together, they explore the responsibility of holding another’s story — and why the magic often emerges when we stay present in the mess rather than turning away.What You’ll Hear:How Gary’s therapeutic training shaped a new kind of filmmaking: presence behind the lensWhy silence is one of the most powerful tools in healing-centered storytellingThe difference between “capturing” a story and holding a story with care and consentWhat resilience looks like when we’re allowed to find our tears — and why that mattersHow Thrive was born as a container for what gets stirred after a film endsGary’s answer to the closing question: the magic is in stepping in, staying in, and connectingResources Mentioned- community + events: https://thrive.one/?via=jennifer- Thrive films referenced: Skids + Real (mentioned as part of Thrive’s origin story),- Upcoming/active projects mentioned: Medicine (with Rueben George), Hold On To Your Kids (with Dr. Gabor Maté + Gordon Neufeld), and Hilarapy a humor + recovery-focused project with Lizzie Allen- Related Podcast Episodes:Episode 27 — Interview with Merissa Turner (cinematherapy, nervous system safety, healing in community)- Episode 28 — Jennifer’s solo reflection (Patterns to Possibility: Satir, family systems, and healing held in community)Featured Guest: Gary TurnerGary Turner is a filmmaker, storyteller, and co-founder of Thrive.

Fresh home from Thailand, Jennifer reflects on what healing in community actually feels like in real time—when people risk vulnerability, are met with care, and something inside (and between) them shifts. This episode is a grounded reminder that chaos can be part of change—and that transformation often happens fastest when we’re not doing it alone.What You’ll Hear:Why “a place to land” matters after insight—so what’s been stirred can be held, not managed aloneA simple Satir reminder: chaos isn’t failure—it’s often the doorway to transformation when the old patterns stop workingHow family patterns are adaptations, not pathology—and what changes when we revisit them with compassionA confidentiality-protected story from a live sculpt: how choice, breath, and support helped someone re-enter the process and find inner harmonyA couple’s “dance” under stress—how space and closeness can become reciprocity instead of reactivityThe felt sense of the group field: attunement, validation, and “oneness”—when it stops being one person’s story and becomes our shared human storyResources MentionedPrevious episode: Jennifer’s interview with Merissa Turner on healing in community and creating “responsible holding” beyond passive inspirationNext episode: Jennifer’s upcoming interview with Gary Turner (Merissa’s partner and co-founder of Thrive.one) — on storytelling, holding, and collective healingFramework referenced: The Satir Model (Virginia Satir) and family systems-informed sculpting as a pathway from patterns to possibilityMeet the Host: Jennifer NagelJennifer Nagel is a soul-centered counsellor, international facilitator, and best-selling author who has spent over two decades helping people navigate chaos, reconnect with their inner wisdom, and create meaningful, authentic lives.

What happens after a story opens something tender inside us — and there’s nowhere to land? In this deeply human conversation, filmmaker and somatic therapist Merissa Turner shares how cinematherapy, nervous system safety, and community support turn insight into real healing. Together, Jennifer and Merissa explore why healing was never meant to happen alone — and how Thrive.one is re-imagining a modern “village” where people are held, not just inspired.In this episode, we explore:Merissa’s path through attachment work (Gordon Neufeld), transpersonal psychology, somatic experiencing, and inherited trauma workThe moment Thrive was born: realizing that inspiring a film is powerful—but people need somewhere to land afterwardsWhat cinematherapy is, and what happens in the body when we see our truth reflected on screenWhy authenticity and vulnerability feel like relief in a productivity-driven worldThe “digital village” idea: healing together, across time zones, with real practices and real peopleThe magic in the muck: how painful chapters become the very source of service and leadershipClosing reflection prompt:Where in your life are you craving more authenticity—and what is one small way you could step out of “production mode” this week and into real connection?Resources + links mentioned: Create a free account to access events and community: https://thrive.one/?via=jennifer Tip: verification emails may land in junk mail—check there for your codeFilms available on Thrive.one: Skids and Real (free)Real companion resources: a masterclass series + workbook for deeper personal reflection and relationship patternsFeatured Guest: Merissa TurnerMerissa Turner is a therapist, filmmaker, and the co-founder of Thrive.one, a digital village devoted to healing, belonging, and the restoration of community. Her work is rooted in the understanding that healing happens through relationship — with ourselves, with each other, and with the living world. For more than five years, Merissa has been honoured to serve as part of the Sacred Circle Indigenous Wellness Mental Health team, working alongside community leaders to help shape a new model of healing grounded in culture, spirit, and collective care. Through this relationship, she has been welcomed into learning the ways, beliefs, and laws that guide and protect First Nations peoples — teachings that continue to inform her practice and deepen her commitment to community-led healing. Merissa’s path has also carried her into relationships with Indigenous communities across Turtle Island, Africa, Peru, and Indonesia, where she has learned about reciprocity, kinship, and the sacred responsibilities we hold toward one another. She has walked beside residential school survivors and their families, witnessing the strength, truth, and tenderness that emerge when stories are held with care. As a filmmaker, Merissa explores the landscapes where psychology, spirit, and culture meet. Her upcoming documentary, created in collaboration with Dr. Gabor Maté and Dr. Gordon Neufeld, examines the relational roots of resilience and the deep human need for attachment and connection. Through Thrive, she is dedicated to building accessible pathways to healing and uplifting the teachers, wisdom keepers, and mentors who are shaping a more relational world.Meet the Host: Jennifer NagelJennifer Nagel is a soul-centered counsellor, international facilitator, and best-selling author who has spent over two decades helping people navigate chaos, reconnect with their inner wisdom, and create meaningful, authentic lives.

Life doesn’t always move on our timelines. In this short return episode, Jennifer reflects on the wisdom of pausing, listening to the body, and meeting full seasons of life with compassion rather than pressure.HighVibe Takeaways:Pauses aren’t failures or absences—they’re thresholds. Places where integration, re-orientation, and deeper listening can happen.Listening to the body isn’t about fixing or overriding—it’s about honoring the season you’re actually in.Guilt often shows up when old expectations collide with a new chapter. Compassion offers another way forward.You’re not behind, broken, or doing it wrong. The pause may be exactly where you need to be.Sometimes growth asks us to soften rather than strive.In the next episode, I’ll offer a short guided practice—an invitation to pause, settle, and listen to the body as it is, right now.Meet the Host: Jennifer NagelJennifer Nagel is a soul-centered counsellor, international facilitator, and best-selling author who has spent over two decades helping people navigate chaos, reconnect with their inner wisdom, and create meaningful, authentic lives.

In this conversation with Carolyn Cooper, we explore what it truly means to lead from love rather than fear. Carolyn shares the deeper truths, courageous choices, and unexpected magic that shaped her AIM High system — inviting us to live above the line and meet life with presence, purpose, and an open heart.What You’ll Hear:Love-inspired leadership begins with truth. Not surface-level honesty — but the deeper Truth that rearranges everything when we finally stop running from it.Courage is the key that unlocks love. Nothing shifts until we choose courage over fear, even when the path is messy.The muck has its own magic. What we resist often carries the doorway to freedom, clarity, and unexpected grace.Living “above the line” is a daily practice. It’s a commitment to curiosity, congruence, and taking radical responsibility for our inner world.Self-care is not indulgent — it’s structural. Without it, love can’t lead and gratitude can’t take root.Presence creates the conditions for joy. When we breathe into this moment, life meets us with far more than we imagined.Resources Mentioned[Related Podcast Episode]https://love-inspired-leadership.captivate.fm/listenFeatured Guest: Carolyn CooperCarolyn Cooper is the visionary guide behind the AIM High System and Love Inspired Leadership Podcast.

In this intimate conversation, Jennifer sits down with body-mind practitioner Anastacia Lundholm to explore what it really means to come home to yourself through your body. Anastacia shares how subtle sensations become “flags” and then megaphones when we don’t listen, how generational patterns are carried in our nervous system, and why connecting with the body is essential for congruence and choice. She also offers a gentle guided practice to help you ground in gravity, soften tension, and begin a kinder relationship with your own body.What You’ll Hear:The body carries generational stories. Tension, anxiety, and even illness can repeat across family lines when unresolved stress echoes through the nervous system.Patterns are inherited — and interruptible. Healing in one person today can shift what the next generation receives, no matter your family structure.Somatic awareness builds congruence. Slowing down, noticing sensations, and grounding in gravity help you access choice instead of automatic reactions.Your body’s messages start small. Subtle sensations turn into louder signals when ignored — not as punishment, but as guidance.A simple touch-and-breath practice can create immediate change. Anastacia leads a grounding process that softens tension and reconnects you with safety and presence.Self-compassion is essential. Body wisdom comes in pieces, not all at once. Patience and gentleness create the conditions for real insight.Featured Guest: Anastacia LundholmAnastacia Metcalf Lundholm started 27 years ago as a wellness educator, teaching and celebrating the body’s rhythms in growth and transformation. Her work has taken her to 17 countries in North America, Europe, South America, Australia and Asia. Twenty years ago Anastacia added the Satir Model to her theoretical framework. She is a trainer in Satir Transformational Systemic Therapy online and in person, blending in her experience with the body and its energy. She created SISM, Somatically Informed Use of the Satir Model, which she has been teaching in Asia for several years, and next year in Canada. This work prepares counselors and helping professionals to integrate body awareness and experiential exploration into their work.In 2024 her chapter Bodymind Wisdom in Satir’s Model was published in Virginia Satir’s Evolving Legacy- Transformative Therapy with a Bodymind Connection, along with her poem I am Your Body. In the same year, her chapter Finding a Deeper Presence in the Jungles of Peru was published in The Healing Journey to Authenticity- Stories of Compassion, Courage and Connection.Anastacia brings the insights of the Satir Model and the body-centered personal growth to others in many formats. Her professional development programs enhance our awareness of one's own internal wisdom and the internal wisdom of our clients’ and give us new options to deepen our practice, regardless of what technique we offer. Her goal is to enhance everyone’s ability to interact with their clients towards self-responsibility, congruence and transformation. Her one-on-one coaching services help clients return to themselves and discover inner resources to achieve their goals with increased congruence and inner clarity.Follow Anastacia Lundholm:Website: [link]https://bodymindfulwellness.comLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/anastacia-lundholm/Meet the Host: Jennifer NagelJennifer Nagel is a soul-centered counsellor, international facilitator, and best-selling author who has spent over two decades helping people navigate chaos, reconnect with their inner wisdom, and create meaningful, authentic lives.

In this captivating conversation, host Jennifer Nagel sits down with Diana Devi, a clinical pharmacist and Argentine tango dancer, to explore how movement becomes a pathway for emotional healing and connection. Together, they uncover how tango — with its rhythm, attunement, and deep presence — serves as a language of experience, helping us listen more closely to what our bodies already know.Whether you’ve ever danced tango or not, this episode invites you to move beyond words and into the wisdom of your own body — to notice how each step, pause, and breath can open a doorway to greater awareness and healing.What You’ll Hear:• Embodiment as Medicine: How movement can transform stuck emotions into flow and aliveness.• The Science and Soul of Healing: Bridging clinical understanding with the intuitive language of the body.• The Power of Presence: What tango teaches us about listening, attunement, and connection — within and between.• The Dance of Relationship: How leading and following mirror our inner dynamics and relational patterns.• Small Steps, Big Shifts: Healing often begins by simply allowing the body to lead.Reflective Prompt:As you move through your day, pause and notice:Where is your body asking to lead you?It might be through a stretch, a sigh, a walk, or a moment of stillness.What happens when you let your body — not your mind — take the first step?Featured Guest: Diana DeviDiana Devi is a clinical pharmacist with over 35 years of experience and an Argentine tango dancer and instructor. Blending her deep scientific expertise with the art of movement, Diana helps women understand how their bodies evolve with age—and how to support those changes with mindset, lifestyle, and joyful motion.

In this deeply grounding and heart-opening conversation, Feldenkrais practitioner Wally Walsh joins Jennifer to explore how gentle curiosity and awareness through movement can reconnect us with the body’s innate intelligence.From Wally’s powerful story of healing after paralysis to his insights on nervous system reorganization and somatic learning, this episode invites us to soften control and rediscover how the body itself is the compass guiding our healing and transformation.What You’ll Hear:Learn how curiosity—not control—opens the doorway to embodied healing.Discover how gentle awareness reorganizes the nervous system and restores ease, comfort, and possibility.Explore Wally’s journey from paralysis to practitioner, and what it taught him about surrender and resilience.Understand the Feldenkrais principle of “learning through touch” — a practice of co-creating with your body rather than fixing it.Experience a simple guided exercise to sense support, breath, and presence through your skeleton.Remember: You are not your diagnosis. Healing begins when we listen to what the body has been trying to tell us all along.Reflective PromptPause for a moment and ask yourself: What might shift in my life if I approached my body—not as a problem to fix—but as a wise companion to listen to with gentle curiosity?Resources Mentionedwww.feldenkrais.com/Featured Guest: Wally WalshMichael “Wally” Walsh is a Feldenkrais®️ practitioner and movement educator based in San Pancho, Mexico. After his own journey through chronic pain and physical limitation, Wally discovered that movement could be a doorway — not just to healing, but to awareness, self-compassion, and freedom.Today, he helps others find that same sense of possibility through gentle, mindful exploration — guiding people to move with less effort, more ease, and a lot more curiosity. His approach blends science, mindfulness, and humor, inviting each person to find their own “magic in the muck” — those moments where struggle becomes the start of transformation.Follow Wally:Email: mwallywalsh@gmail.comInstagram: @wallywalshsomaticmovesMeet the Host: Jennifer NagelJennifer Nagel is a soul-centered counsellor, international facilitator, and best-selling author who has spent over two decades helping people navigate chaos, reconnect with their inner wisdom, and create meaningful, authentic lives.

In this Season 2 prelude of Magic in the Muck: A Soul’s Compass for Change, Jennifer invites you to come home to the wisdom of your body — the original compass that always knows what’s true. Together, we look back at the spiral path of Season 1 and begin turning toward embodiment, exploring how our bodies whisper (and sometimes shout) the truths our minds aren’t ready to see. This episode sets the tone for a new season of soulful, body-led transformation.What You’ll Hear: Your body is your original compass — it knows what’s true long before your mind catches up.Transformation is a spiral, not a straight line — each season invites new layers of awareness, growth, and embodiment.Listening to your body is a spiritual practice — the sensations, tension, and ease you feel are messages guiding you toward congruence.Embodiment opens the door to magic — practices like meditation, movement, Somatic Respiratory Integration, and the Feldenkrais Method reveal the language of the body.We evolve together — by sharing reflections and stories, we amplify the collective healing journey.

After journeying through the four directions of the Soul Compass — East, South, West, and North — we arrive at the centre: the still point.In this episode, Jennifer invites you to come home to the heart of your own compass — the place where all the wisdom, growth, and transformation you’ve gathered begins to integrate.Through gentle reflection, soulful insight, and a guided embodiment practice, you’ll explore what it means to live from the centre of change — that quiet space where presence meets motion, and wisdom becomes embodied.Reflective Prompt:How are you experiencing your own still point—your calm at the core of movement?What You’ll Hear:The center of the Soul’s Compass is not another direction—it’s the place that holds them all.True integration happens when we pause to let change settle in the body and soul.The still point is where transformation digests into wisdom—it’s not about control, but presence.Transformation is spiralic, not linear; each turn deepens your embodiment of wholeness.Stillness can feel foreign after chaos, yet it’s where the gold of transformation settles in.You are the center of your own compass—the meeting place of heaven and earth, past and future, being and becoming.This episode closes the Compass arc — and opens the doorway to the next chapter of Magic in the Muck, where we’ll begin exploring how to listen to the language of the body and live from embodied alignment.Meet the Host: Jennifer NagelJennifer Nagel is a soul-centered counsellor, international facilitator, and best-selling author who has spent over two decades helping people navigate chaos, reconnect with their inner wisdom, and create meaningful, authentic lives.
