He’s known for bringing rigor to a subject that’s often dismissed and for holding his own in countless debates.We get into his path from hearing a rapper mention flat earth to becoming one of the most outspoken voices in the field, why cosmology feels like the “glitch in the matrix” that changes everything, and how he handles conversations at a party without pulling out the sword. We also talk about the unseen realm, the idea of ether, and why the way we transmit this information, especially to the next generation, matters just as much as the facts themselves.You’ll Learn:The moment that sparked Austin into questioning the shape of the earthWhy cosmology acts as a “glitch in the matrix” that reshapes an entire worldviewThe surprising link between flat earth debates and discovering the unseen realmWhat it feels like to realize we can see much farther than the globe model allowsHow debates with PhDs often reveal more about academic bias than science itselfThe role of the ether and why it was removed from mainstream cosmologyWhat ancient civilizations knew about vibration, frequency, and the nature of realityTimestamps:[00:00] Introduction[07:44] Austin’s path into flat earth and why he kept going[10:58] Why cosmology shifts an entire worldview unlike other truths[16:27] How Austin handles conversations about flat earth at parties[24:12] The tropes and challenges he faces in debates with academics[29:43] Understanding the ether and its implications for reality[35:49] Ancient civilizations, hidden history, and sacred geometry[38:21] The role of health, history, and cosmology in seeing clearly[44:18] The patterns of belief fields and victim consciousness[50:32] Why vibe and relatability matter more than fear when sharing truth👉🏻 Want to start a podcast like this one?

She’s just released her first book Diary of a Bad Bitch, a work that blends memoir and erotic nonfiction.We get into her journey with pole dance as a path of self-expression, the permission it creates for women to explore their sensuality, and the way her writing opens space for honest, vulnerable conversations about sexuality and creativity.You’ll Learn:Why pole dance can feel like an initiation for womenWhat it feels like to face waves of shame and discover safety in sensual expressionThe link between childhood innocence and adult erotic energyWhy female versus male gaze changes everything in dance and performanceThe quiet damage of women judging each other’s expression, and what happens when that shiftsWhy creativity should be treated as a daily priority rather than a side projectThe raw process of writing erotic nonfiction and why using a pen name mattered to herWhat it takes to set the stage for authentic movement and see where the body leadsThe enduring truth that sexuality and pleasure are always available, even after disconnectionTimestamps:[00:00] Introduction[07:14] The permission field of pole dance and moving through shame[13:27] Creativity expanding into tattooing, drawing, and blood painting[19:04] Female versus male gaze in performance and dance videos[25:11] Navigating invisibility, fame, and the desire for attention[31:45] Erotic reclamation, archetypes, and sexual exploration through pole[37:42] Writing her book and choosing a pen name[42:51] Building conscious cabaret as a safe performance space[45:58] Sensuality, sexuality, and the role of slowing down[54:12] Why pleasure and sexuality are always available👉🏻 Want to start a podcast like this one?

She spent ten years in the field, specializing in trauma, before her career was abruptly cut short.We talk about the patterns that led her into the rescuer role, what it was like to have her license revoked, and how she faced public shaming from her professional community.

I talk about the insatiable nature of feminine desire, how entitlement creeps in when we lose awareness, and why learning to appreciate even the smallest moments can change everything. I share how I practice this in my own life, from focusing on the comfort of a blanket during a water fast to letting my kids make their own choices, even when it’s inconvenient for me. And I break down how desire, when it’s met with consciousness, can become a powerful force for creation instead of a source of suffering.You’ll Learn:The real reason feminine desire never feels satisfiedWhat happens when entitlement sneaks into your relationship with desireThe surprising link between gratitude and breaking free from the addiction to “more”How noticing tiny comforts can shift you out of overwhelmWhy teaching your kids to honor their own wants can change how your family functionsThe quiet damage of living from “owe” and “deserve”How to recognize when your desire is healthy versus when it’s fueled by fearThe practice that can help you feel fullness even in uncomfortable momentsWhy coming into union with your desire is the most powerful work you can do as a womanTimestamps:[00:00] Introduction[01:02] Navigating perfectionism and fear of complacency in kids[02:00] Why feminine desire is naturally insatiable[03:15] Recognizing entitlement and victim patterns in desire[04:10] Using appreciation and the concept of “ha” to feel fullness[05:20] Finding comfort and gratitude in small moments during struggle[07:05] Transforming desire into life force energy and creative power[08:00] Teaching kids to honor their own wants and choices[09:15] Trusting desire and discerning it from entitlement and fear👉🏻 Want to start a podcast like this one?

In this episode, I talk about how what we call love can actually be an addiction.I share how I began questioning the way we label addiction as a disease and why abstinence models often keep people stuck. I look at how patterns of chaos, stimulation, and emotional highs and lows show up not just with substances but in love, work, and conflict. I talk about what the rat park studies and early attachment teach us about why we reach for these patterns, and why real intimacy can feel unbearable when our nervous system is wired for drama. I also share the four questions I use to examine any addictive habit so we can start finding what’s on the other side.You’ll Learn:The real reason intensity can feel safer than peaceWhat happens when your nervous system is addicted to chaosHow love addiction mimics substance abuse patternsWhy you might unconsciously choose partners who can’t meet your needsThe surprising link between childhood attachment wounds and romantic dramaWhat it feels like to reclaim your inner “little no” and trust your gutHow to identify the upside you’re secretly getting from addictive habitsThe quiet damage of ignoring subtle inner signalsWhy true sobriety goes far beyond quitting alcoholA 4-step framework to examine your relationship with any addictive patternTimestamps:[00:00] Introduction[05:02] How addiction patterns mirror emotional avoidance[07:12] The victim triangle and nervous system conditioning[09:18] Love addiction and the fear of true intimacy[11:58] Reclaiming neuroception and seeing reality clearly[14:42] Taking yourself off the market to break patterns[16:15] How drama and chaos feed the addiction cycle[18:02] Four questions to uncover the roots of addictive behavior[21:00] What quitting actually gives you beyond abstinence[23:12] Learning to embrace stability and the liminal space👉🏻 Want to start a podcast like this one?

What if everything you believed about college was a lie?In this episode, I sit down with Hannah Maruyama of Degree Free, who, alongside her husband, has dedicated her life to helping young people reject the myth that college is the only path to success. She’s not just talking theories, she’s working directly with 16 to 20-year-olds, helping them carve out real, debt-free futures that actually align with their values.We get into why the college system is fundamentally broken, how it became a trillion-dollar trap, and what we can do instead.

Tom has spent decades questioning dominant narratives in medicine, biology, and now parenting. His latest book, Commonsense Childrearing, brings a radically different lens to the way we raise our children, one that’s grounded in trust, presence, and actual lived experience.We talk about what it really means to get on your child’s team, how “bad” behavior is often a form of communication, and why the instinct to punish or correct usually backfires.

Rabbi Friedman is one of the foremost voices challenging modern assumptions about love, marriage, intimacy, and gender roles—and his take is anything but conventional.In this provocative episode, Kelly and Rabbi Friedman deconstruct the myths of modern romance—from why marriage shouldn’t be “for love,” to how women can actually identify a husband, not just another man.

Daniel’s work challenges the foundations of germ theory and dives into the seductive psychology of victim consciousness that underpins much of modern medicine—yes, even “natural” medicine.Get ready to question everything you think you know about gut health, parasite cleanses, and even the existence of so-called “pathogenic” organisms.

What if your anxiety isn’t in your mind—but in your field?In this episode, Kelly sits down with researcher, inventor, and Biofield Tuning founder Eileen McKusick, whose groundbreaking work challenges everything we think we know about healing, consciousness, and the human body. With nearly 30 years of experience decoding the electric blueprint of the body using sound, Eileen has mapped the energetic anatomy that surrounds and informs our physical form—and she’s proving it’s more than just woo.You’ll learn how unresolved trauma shows up as electrical noise in your field, why thoughts aren’t stored in your brain, and how tuning forks can uncover—and dissolve—lifelong emotional patterns. Eileen breaks down the science of vibrational healing in language that’s as sharp as it is accessible, offering a powerful new lens for understanding everything from anxiety and chronic pain to inherited trauma and illness. Whether you're energy-curious or deep down the frequency rabbit hole, this conversation will leave you rethinking what it means to be coherent—and how to reclaim your signal.You’ll Learn:How tuning forks activate your body’s innate ability to reorganize and self-healWhat emotional tones in the biofield reveal about stored trauma and subconscious patterningWhy thoughts are stored in the energy field—not the brain—and how that changes healingHow to detect and decode the vibrational “noise” that disrupts health and flowWhat coherence in your biofield actually means—and how it drives physical resilienceHow sound interacts with the plasma body to shift emotional and physiological statesWhy most chronic symptoms stem from unresolved tension patterns, not pathologyTimestamps:[00:00] Introduction[01:45] How thoughts may exist outside the brain[02:30] Practical ways to bring coherence to your energy field[03:05] The idea that humans are electric beings[05:30] What it means to live in a vibrational cosmology[08:05] Tuning forks as tools for energetic feedback[10:05] Why vibes don’t lie—reading emotion through frequency[12:10] What tuning forks reveal about emotional memory[14:05] How emotional patterns are stored in specific zones of the field[16:45] Why anyone can learn to feel energetic distortions[17:30] Memories are stored outside the body in magnetic standing waves[22:30] A shocking example of inherited trauma imprinting in the womb[27:25] The hidden role of worthiness in chronic pain and illness[29:10] What coherence actually means for your body and mind[33:00] Why injuries often occur in incoherent zones of your field[35:10] How forks imprint coherent frequency back into the system[38:00] The link between stress, bone loss, and electrical depletion[40:00] Water, memory, and the vibrational nature of the body[45:00] Rewiring subconscious loops to release stuckness[48:40] 174hz fork to deepen relaxation[51:00] How tension turns into lightness through tuning[53:30] 528hz fork to brighten the field[55:15] How tension suppresses emotional expression[57:00] Resilience as the new immunityWant to start a podcast like this one?

With over 25 years in medtech and surgical innovation, Rush has seen what works—and more importantly, what doesn’t—when it comes to long-term healing. His journey from spinal implants to cellular biomechanics reveals a truth most wellness circles ignore: real health is mechanical, cellular, and shockingly primal.This conversation dives deep into the science behind micro-impact, why traditional vibration plates may be doing more harm than good, and how your body’s innate regenerative systems—bone density, joint repair, lymphatic flow, proprioception—are directly linked to how often, and how effectively, you move. You’ll learn why walking barefoot could be the most powerful supplement you’re not taking, how micro-motion affects brain health and even Parkinson’s outcomes, and why this subtle technology could keep your parents out of assisted living. Whether you're a barefoot biohacker, a movement minimalist, or just looking for ways to age with more autonomy, this episode is a goldmine.You’ll Learn:How micro-impact technology activates the body’s natural regenerative systemsWhy traditional vibration plates may harm more than helpHow mechano-transduction drives cellular repair and joint healthWhat 0.05mm of calibrated movement reveals about healing efficiencyHow to simulate 5 miles of barefoot walking in just 20 minutesWhy most orthopedic implants fail long-term—and what works betterHow daily micro-impact supports lymphatic drainage and brain detoxWhat barefoot shoes get right (and how to transition safely)How proprioception training reduces fall risk and boosts longevityTimestamps:[00:00] Introduction[01:42] The hidden importance of barefoot walking[02:18] What makes the Juvent plate different from vibration plates[03:12] Kelly’s personal journey with movement and muscle loss[04:45] How gym training and walking restored balance[05:36] The myth of vibration plates as a walking replacement[06:08] How Juvent mimics barefoot walking for metabolic health[08:00] How Rush became disillusioned with surgical implants[11:16] How mechano-transduction fuels cellular nutrition[13:02] Why lack of movement leads to impact deficiency[14:21] The concept of vita-kin: a daily kinetic vitamin[15:52] How Juvent delivers safe and effective micro-impact[17:06] How Juvent activates lymphatic and glymphatic systems[24:45] How small daily inputs protect future vitality[27:08] How resonance makes micro-impact effective[28:44] Juvent as a “dose-correct” physiological therapy[30:12] How Juvent improves balance and prevents falls[31:30] How cellular interaction depends on movement[32:47] How Juvent reconnects you to natural biological inputs[35:00] How Juvent helped Rush’s mother avoid a nursing home[36:28] Why Juvent supports metabolic and musculoskeletal health[37:50] Steve Harvey’s pain relief and national endorsementWant to start a podcast like this one?

Drawing from years of clinical experience and her own personal transformation, she challenges the idea that health is about fixing what’s wrong. Instead, she makes a bold case for seeing symptoms as sacred signals from your body—not nuisances to suppress, but messages to decode. You’ll learn why true power lies in ending the war within, how to stop outsourcing your sovereignty to “experts,” and how practices like German New Medicine, Family Constellations, and self-tracking can radically rewire your relationship to your body. If you’ve tried all the supplements, all the protocols, and still feel stuck, this episode might just be your way out—by showing you that healing starts when the fight ends.You’ll Learn:How resolving internal conflict reclaims energy and restores physical vitalityWhy chasing symptom relief often reinforces victim consciousnessHow the “rescuer-victim-villain” triangle keeps you stuck in chronic illnessWhat German New Medicine reveals about the hidden purpose of symptomsHow ritual self-awareness practices rewire your relationship to your bodyWhy most functional testing subtly disempowers instead of healsHow to identify the moment a symptom begins—and why that date mattersWhy reframing your symptoms can create safer internal conditions for healingHow to recognize when you’ve outsourced your authority to an “expert” disguised as a guideTimestamps:[00:00] Introduction[00:38] Why biohacking and functional medicine aren’t working for many women[01:34] The one insight that changed how I see symptoms[02:08] How to decode the body’s messages without external validation[02:56] Why rejecting your symptoms creates inner conflict[03:29] How childhood conditioning disconnects us from body autonomy[04:18] The religious roots of disembodiment[05:02] Feminism and the push to transcend biology[05:35] The middle path: power through embodiment, not bypass[06:15] Why seeing the body as “just biology” leads to fragmentation[06:54] How expert dependency fuels triangulation against the self[07:28] The hidden role of the rescuer in chronic illness[08:01] Why symptoms can’t be resolved while you’re still in resistance[08:33] The most radical health practice is neutrality[09:05] What actually happens when the body feels safe[09:38] Why resolution is not about symptom elimination[10:01] How German New Medicine reframes symptom meaning[10:35] Louise Hay’s framework for decoding symptom messages[11:02] The role of Family Constellation in healing[11:42] Why symptoms often have a deeper purpose[12:14] The trap of becoming a professional patient[12:47] Why dependency in health mirrors parent-child dynamics[13:27] When it’s time to respond differently to old patterns[13:59] What secure attachment to your body actually looks like[14:30] Ending manipulation and frustration with your body[15:01] How supplements can become offerings instead of fixes[15:34] A new way to relate to illness with love and curiosity[16:00] My number one health tip: write down symptom onset dates[16:35] How this one practice speeds up your healing clarity[17:15] Symptoms are messages, not problems👉🏻 Want to start a podcast like this one?

With raw honesty and sharp humor, Britt dismantles the myths around motivation, trauma, and change, showing us that what looks like inertia is often a disguised survival strategy.You’ll learn why most people aren’t actually stuck—they’re just allergic to their available options.

Check out the replay of my masterclass Reclaimed Relationship here.You’re not being “nice”—you’re lying for safety.In this episode, Kelly sits down with feminine embodiment teacher and unapologetic truth-teller Perri Chase to expose the hidden cost of the fawning response—why it works, what it protects, and how it hijacks your nervous system, your relationships, and your sense of self.Perri, creator of the transformational practice Sex Bomb and a leader in modern feminine awakening, brings a raw and riveting perspective to the conversation. Her work unpacks the addictive loop of shame, the villainization of women’s needs, and the subtle ways we betray ourselves daily under the guise of “being good.” With decades of lived experience, provocative teachings, and a sharp lens on spiritual bypassing and codependent dynamics, Perri doesn’t just talk embodiment—she lives it.This is not your average empowerment episode. It’s a permission slip to stop performing, start feeling, and finally claim what you actually want.You’ll Learn:How the fawning response rewires your nervous system to lie for safetyWhy shame can become a seductive, self-reinforcing addictionHow to identify and interrupt codependent communication loopsWhat sexual energy reveals about your capacity to hold intensityWhy regulating your nervous system doesn’t always require slowing downHow unmet needs mutate into people-pleasing and self-abandonmentWhat “negative empathy” teaches about dissolving the victim-perpetrator splitHow to use sensation-based awareness to dissolve reactive patternsWhy “being good” often masks an avoidance of boundaries and truthHow to shift from external validation to internal energetic sovereigntyTimestamps:[00:00] Introduction[01:05] What the fawning response is and why it works[04:52] The link between fawning and lying for safety[10:50] The cost of being “nice” instead of honest[13:40] How feminine awakening shifts priorities from safety to self[16:42] The fear of chaos and suppression of feminine life force[20:15] The difference between survival-driven tribes and conscious communities[24:40] What a healthy masculine container feels like in partnership[27:00] Shame as a wet blanket and addictive emotional loop[33:50] Why “there are no victims” isn’t always useful[36:25] Family constellation theory and the victim-perpetrator mirror[43:00] Transitioning from mental awakening to body-based awakening[45:35] How sexual energy helps regulate the nervous system from within[48:50] The shift from managing thoughts to creating from stillness[54:10] The danger of staying in relationships out of fear of loss[56:50] Maturing into a woman who no longer needs to fight to be herself[59:50] Breaking generational silence around female embodiment👉🏻 Want to start a podcast like this one?
