Everything you have in your mouth will transfer to hypothalamus, pituitary, and then from there to the whole body. "It's all connected. It's the mouth-body connection." — Dr. Dominik Nischwitz "The biggest detox you ever do is taking out dental repair.

I need to walk you through this trauma healing process because you're going to experience things in your body which are not often explainable." — Dr. Dominik Nischwitz Josh's Trusted Products | Up To 40% Off Shop All Products Biohacking⁠ Korrect Life - 15% OFF WITH CODE "JOSH15" MANNA Vitality - Save 20% with code JOSH20 HigherDOSE - 15% off with the code WELLNESSANDWISDOM PLUNGE - $150 off with discount code WELLNESSFORCE Pulsetto - Save 20% with code "JOSH" SaunaSpace - 10% off with discount code JOSH10 Ultrahuman Ring Air - 10% off with code JOSH NutriSense - 30% off with WELLNESSFORCE Wellness Test Kits Choose Joi - Save 50% on all Lab Tests with JOSH Blokes - Save 50% on all Lab Tests with JOSH FertilityWize Test by Clockwize - Save 10% with code JOSH Tiny Health Gut Tests - $20 off with discount code JOSH20 VIVOO Health Tests - Save 30% off with code JOSH SiPhox Health Blood Test - Save 15% off with code JOSH Nutrition + Gut Health Organifi - 20% off with discount code WELLNESSFORCE SEED Synbiotic - 25% off with the code 25JOSHTRENT Paleovalley -  Save 15% off here!

Why niceness is an emotional survival response born from fear of not being loved, fear of being alone, and fear of not being worthy. How people pleasing is a conditioned response rather than a personality trait. [02:35] Somatic Recognition + Body Awareness The most common physical indicators of niceness: facial tension, elevated shoulders, and fast breathing. How the enteric nervous system can detect authenticity within a 6-foot perimeter through micro-facial expressions. Why the body responds half a second before the mind processes input. [13:05] Language + Identity Transformation How self-identification as 'recovering people pleaser' or 'recovering perfectionist' reinforces the unwanted identity. Why we need to feel emotions rather than bypass them. The three awareness pillars: body awareness, voice/word awareness, and environment awareness. [15:40] Practical Implementation Strategies How to practice authentic 'no' in low-stakes situations to build courage for high-stakes scenarios. Why 'no' is the greatest gift we can give others, as it demonstrates self-love and trustworthiness. Pre-response check: placing hand on chest, breathing, and asking 'Is what I'm about to say/do aligned with who I am?'. [19:45] Stop Being a "Nice Girl" Why women struggle with direct communication and tend to avoid conflict through indirect refusal. How nonviolent communication in relationships serves as a model for boundary-setting. [20:55] Parenting + Generational Patterns How Josh navigates situations where he catches himself telling his son to 'be a good boy.' Why we pass people-pleasing patterns to children if our personal healing work isn't completed. [22:00] Identity + Values Framework The core self-knowledge questions: 'Who am I? What are my values? What do I stand for? What do I do and why?' What it takes to become'unfuck-withable.' How identity transformation extends cycles of recommitment from multiple daily reversions to weeks between old pattern occurrences. [25:55] Setting Boundaries in a Workplace The importance of recognizing people-pleasing behavior in a management role. Why we need to be kind but firm in our communication in professional settings to maintain healthy workplace dynamics.

That's why we think we don't have to ask each other, what do you need? And we think we don't have to say what we need." — Alison Armstrong ""As long as I take men's power, I will never know my own. So after I gave up emasculating men, men became proactively caring for me, looking out for me, taking care of me, and warning me against bad people." — Alison Armstrong "You can tell the question that people have in their head by what they interrupt you with. They interrupt with something that their own mind answered that compelled them.

What’s Hijacking Your Healing? Preston Smiles Reveals How to Turn Trauma into Abundance

What if true freedom demands separation from old beliefs? Josh Trent welcomes Preston Smiles, Abundance and Money Coach, to the Wellness + Wisdom Podcast, episode 752, to reveal how our need for external validation hijacks our true potential and abundance, what it really takes to break free from generational wounds, and why the commodification of spirituality will only be undone by uncompromising honesty and a relaxed nervous system. In This Episode, Preston Smiles Uncovers: [01:10] Why Most Self-Development Is “Blind Leading the Blind” Why healing doesn't have a hierarchy. How all fathers hold the hard things inside. Why nobody is better than anybody. What makes us chase the feeling of significance. How we're taught to seek validation outside of ourselves. Why most self-development is blind leading the blind. Resources: Preston Smiles 092 Now or Never: Alexi Panos & Preston Smiles [09:35] Being Honest with Your Children Why honesty is a gift to our children. How Preston's children witnessed a conflict between him and his wife. Why he apologized to his wife in front of his children after they had a fight. How being a demonstration is what lands the most for people. [13:00] How to Repair After Conflict Why God only hears 'yes.' How the body stores everything we've ever been through. What creates neurotags in the body. How not addressing our neurotags makes us harden. Why most of us didn't learn how to clear guilt, shame, and trauma from our body. The importance of having proactive practices to prevent disease. [18:30] The Role of A Father Why most of Preston's childhood friends didn't fulfil their potential because their fathers weren't present. How his father encouraged him to be a leader. Why most people don't have a father that's loving and present. Resources: Dead Poets Society (1989) [23:35] How to Be Free Why Preston quit being a reverend twice in his life. Science of Mind by Ernest Holmes The importance of questioning our answers. What is behind our belief that money is hard to come by. How questioning our path can set us free from generational wounds and beliefs. Resources: Spiritual Millionaire by Preston Smiles [29:00] Why Elevation Requires Separation How repair provides a space to ask each other questions. How we become like the people we spend time with. Why his wife was the first person Preston ever made love with. What led him to go deep into esoterics and conspiracies. [35:20] You Can Heal Yourself The difference between healthy and toxic fear. How Preston developed a skin disease and fell into shame when he was a teenager. Why he needed to process the abuse he went through as a child. How acknowledgment helped him heal. Why he did 31 ayahuasca ceremonies in a year. How people began to be part of Preston's healing. Resources: You Can Heal Your Life by Louise Hay [40:25] The Next Level of Law of Attraction The missing link to the law of attraction. Why the work is constant remembering of what is actually here. How learning to love what is opens up the door for us. Why we need to choose but not want. What we can't stop thinking about, it's our calling. How Preston connects with God. Why hearing God's voice when he was 15 saved his life. How he met his wife through listening and trusting God. Resources: The Secret by Rhonda Byrne 674 Daniele Kathryn Hage | Gender Equality vs. Gender Equity: How to Have a Lasting + Loving Relationship For Life [49:20] Healing Porn Addiction What made Josh realize that porn addiction was his own choice. How Preston approaches his children's sexuality. Why pornography is a tool of control. How he finally chose to see sex as a sacred act. [56:50] Is Demonic Energy Ever Good? How even demonic energy can serve us to awaken. Why the demonic energy is not the urge but the marketing machine that sold us the urge. How the bad things in our lives are our teachers on a soul level. [01:01:35] The Wounded Ego Why it's not our fault when we fall into addiction. How social media glorifies toughness. Why Preston's team didn't stop working when he decided to let them go. How he used to feel better than everyone. [01:08:05] How Much Money Do You Really Need to Be Happy? How Josh has worked through his relationship and money wounds to get where he is now. Why there is a point where money doesn't matter anymore. How Preston learned to appreciate his tiny apartment back in the day. Why get more if we can't love what we have now. How some rich people identify with the status of money and get controlled by it. Why Preston doesn't keep the things that make him attach to his ego. [01:14:45] Cheaters Don't Last How people have used Preston to climb the career ladder. Why his friend stole his workshop. How people who cheat other people don't last long in the game. Resources: Tai Lopez Grant Cardone [01:22:05] Spiritual Commodification Why the antidote to the commodification of spirituality is honesty. The importance of crediting those we've learned from. Why scarcity tells us there's not enough for everyone to share. How abundance comes from a relaxed nervous system. Why most people have a very small window of tolerance.

They're not embodied. And if who we're mimicking and following is not embodied, then we're going to stay stuck in a vicious cycle." — Preston Smiles "The body is a living library that stores everything we've ever been through. Over time, if we do not address the stored paid, the body starts to become dense and the fluidity of the system hardens. If we don't have healthy, intentional, proactive practices, the body will turn on itself and begin to create cancer cells because it is not flowing like it should be." — Preston Smiles "Get your questions answered and your answers questioned. If you accept the answer, that is what you will experience. But if you question the answer, what do you get? You get freedom." — Preston Smiles Josh's Trusted Products | Up To 40% Off Shop All Products Biohacking⁠ MANNA Vitality - Save 20% with code JOSH20 HigherDOSE - 15% off with the code WELLNESSANDWISDOM PLUNGE - $150 off with discount code WELLNESSFORCE Pulsetto - Save 20% with code "JOSH" SaunaSpace - 10% off with discount code JOSH10 Ultrahuman Ring Air - 10% off with code JOSH NutriSense - 30% off with WELLNESSFORCE Wellness Test Kits Choose Joi - Save 50% on all Lab Tests with JOSH Blokes - Save 50% on all Lab Tests with JOSH FertilityWize Test by Clockwize - Save 10% with code JOSH Tiny Health Gut Tests - $20 off with discount code JOSH20 VIVOO Health Tests - Save 30% off with code JOSH SiPhox Health Blood Test - Save 15% off with code JOSH Nutrition + Gut Health Organifi - 20% off with discount code WELLNESSFORCE SEED Synbiotic - 25% off with the code 25JOSHTRENT Paleovalley -  Save 15% off here!

From Self-Sabotage to Freedom: Josh Trent Shares How to Master Nature’s Laws + Rewrite Your Destiny

In this powerful episode with Josh Trent as a guest on Bryan Reeves’ Bridging Connections Podcast, Josh dives into what it truly means to live a liberated life. In this conversation, Josh unpacks: Nature’s Universal Laws: How metaphysical principles like reciprocity, oneness and polarity guide us toward wholeness, and why we’re only as liberated as our capacity to align with them. Emotional Epigenetics™: The science of how our inherited beliefs and emotional patterns switch genes on or off, influencing everything from stress response to inner peace.
