The Pete Isaia Podcast

Meet the duo behind Isaia Coaching - me, your host, Pete Isaia and my Executive Producer, Quinika Davis. I get personal and open up about my traumatic childhood, my diverse career in highly chaotic environments, my own healing journey with psychedelics, yoga and breathwork, and how I have come to be the founder and director of Isaia Coaching, the premier destination for shadow work. We also delve into Quin's shadow work journey; her discovery of my work as a trauma therapist in her early 20s and how she navigated the profound and challenging impacts of starting this work at such a young age. I hope you enjoy this raw and real insight into the team bringing this transformational work to the world, as we unpack the ego, soul and spirit, offering our own personal insights and experiences to the audience. ⁠⁠START YOUR SHADOW WORK ⁠⁠⚡️
