About 5 years ago, I made the shift from life-long Christianity to spirituality... and wow, what a journey it's been. On today's show, we're flipping the script. One of my best friends and repeat podcast guest Brittany Brantley is coming on the show and taking over the host role, and I'm the subject! We're talking all about my spiritual journey, going from Christian to spiritual, the role breast implant illness played in my spiritual journey, being an active participant in your manifestation, and so much more. Ready for a strong and centered start to 2023? Same dude. Same. That's why I've partnered with Open, a meditation app (or what I prefer calling a digital wellness experience) that combines breathwork, meditation, sound, and movement to strengthen the connection between your mind and your body, and arguably your soul.

It's safe to say we've all learned something in our lives (or at least I hope so), but how often do we actually sit and think about the skill of learning, and how to... learn how to learn? Today's guest, David Rosales, is not only one of my best friends, but is truly the embodiment of a lifelong, enthusiastic learner. In today's episode we talk about David's passion for learning, particularly his passion for learning languages, and how he's harnessed the power of "activation energy" to overcome the initial intertia in any new skill, how to lower activation energy to make learning easier, how to apply these concepts to skills like fitness, and overcoming the hurdles involved in any new endeavor so you can get to mastery faster. We also do a deep dive on why language and the nuance of language matters as a way to preserve culture and enhance thinking, talk about practical climate change solutions anyone can participate in, and David's original concept of Defensive Propaganda as a tool to better understand and stand up for what we believe in. It's all over the map, and a beautiful map at that.

My best thoughts usually come when I'm on walks. There's something about getting my mind and my body moving together in an undistracted, undivided way. Today's episode came from some morning walk thoughts. We're talking all about one of the miracles in my life, how/why I stopped believing miracles could happen to me, and how to play an active role in your life and position yourself for miracles to happen.

Does anyone ACTUALLY know what's going on in your 20s? Asking for a friend... In today's episode, I'm chatting with the one and only Kira Lucia Guarino, one of the amazing coaches at FENIX ATHLETICA. We're going all over today. Figuring out how TF to navigate one of the most confusing decades of your life; learning what womanhood, sensuality, and sexuality mean to you while trying to UNlearn the slut vs prude dynamic we were raised with in the early 2000s; taking ownership of your experiences, identifying boxes you've been put in OR put yourself in; and ultimately, figuring out what "coming home to yourself" really means.

One of the biggest mistakes we make is thinking that the most spiritual moments only happen at retreats or seminars, or during medicine ceremonies. The truth is, some of the most spiritual moments and "downloads" come from what seem to be the most mundane and otherwise unexciting surroundings. Today's real-life story is one of said moments. Today, we're talking about the 8:30am Tuesday Uber ride that changed my life and perspective for the better. It's basically like...

You're a kinky b*tch, you know that?

Brittany is a paradox coach with a background in childhood development who uses a process called The Paradox to help you heal your inner child through pleasure. That's right, I said pleasure.

Sleep. What a beautiful and essential thing, amirite? I'm right. I don't know about yall, but I can handle getting a little hangry. But if my sleep is messed up? All bets are off. The last 6-8 years, largely as a byproduct of being a general health enthusiast and also investing a lot of time and energy into competitive bodybuilding, learning how to optimize my sleep has been a huge priority. Sleep is one of our biggest forms of recovery, right up there with our nutrition. If we can harness the power of good sleep, everything from our mood to our fat loss to our performance to our blood sugar regulation improves. Today's episode is coming from someone who has devoted quite a bit of time and effort into optimizing a lesser-appreciated aspect of our sleep: your pillow. Yep, that's right, your pillow. We've heard from all the fancy mattress companies, and yall know how much I love my performa sleep mattress, but I foolishly never thought to give my pillows much thought. I knew I was picky with pillows, which you'll hear more about on the episode, but I didn't know we could actually have… an optimized pillow for our sleep needs and preferences???? Today we're chatting with Susana Saeliu, the co-founder and CEO of Pluto Pillow. Susana started experiencing neck pain in 2017 and found that the main offender was her pillow. So, she set out to create a company that solved pillow problems around the world through crafting the perfect pillow. Thus, Pluto Pillow, the first and only custom sleep pillow that's crafted to your body stats, how you sleep, and what you like, was born. At Pluto, they take in all sorts of stats and preferences to help build a pillow that's truly bespoke to you and your needs for your best sleep experience yet. Today we're talking all things sleep hygiene, being a female in the entrepreneurial space, and finding your voice as a woman in business. This episode is so inspiring, and Susana really does bring something so fresh and amazing to the business space. Annnnd if you're looking to treat yourself to a Pluto Pillow ofyour own, they're offering EMBody Radio listeners an exclusive discount of 10% off your custom pluto pillow with the code EMBODY at checkout on plutopillow.com. Once again, that's code EMBODY for 10% off your Pluto Pillow of plutopillow.com Annnnd to sweeten the dreams a little further, I have a very exciting announcement from our partners over at Cured Nutrition, and that's the NEW Cured Nutrition CBN night caps.

We can all think of at least one inflection point in our lives... The moment where one thing changes, and then seemingly everything changes.
