Velvet's Edge with Kelly Henderson
iHeartPodcasts
The Velvet's Edge Podcast is an invitation to explore the beautiful, messy truth that real growth is an inside job. Hosted by Kelly Henderson—a celebrity stylist and men's groomer who has learned firsthand that "looking good" on the outside only gets you so far—this podcast is a space for the conversations you don't always hear out loud.
Life has a way of knocking us flat, and Kelly believes there is purpose in that pain. She uses her own journey of plot twists to show that true beauty is found by going inward. On some days, you'll hear deep dives with therapists, healers, and other people who have turned their pain into something beautiful. On other days, Kelly and Chip Dorsch laugh their way through the weird, messy "WTF is this life?" moments, because growth is easier when you and your bestie can laugh through it together.
This podcast is for you if you've ever felt empty despite doing everything you were "supposed to" do. It's for you if you're stuck in a toxic relationship cycle and don't know how to get out. It's for you if you're in the middle of a total life plot twist and have no idea where to start. You aren't broken beyond repair. You are simply a human on a soul's journey, and even though we each have our own path, it's a lot easier when we have a little help from our friends.

Expand: How Old Is Your Soul? (The Velvet)
As seen on Oprah Winfrey and Ellen Degeneres, past-life psychic, spiritual teacher and award-winning author, Ainslie MacLeod, joins Kelly to talk about soul ages, soul personalities, past lives and more. Ainslie describes his hesitant journey to accepting his psychic abilities and how he communicates with spirit guides now to give people information about their own soul's journey. Kelly asks Ainslie to explain why he believes that our own understanding of our past lives is the place where we can find the most healing for our current life experience. "Remember, your destiny is not some intangible, distant goal that you might, if you are lucky, discover before you die. As long as it's consistent with your life plan, your destiny is what you're doing right now." Ainslie explains soul families and those weird moments where you meet a total stranger, yet you feel like you've known them for years. He also details his beliefs about what happens to souls and where they go in between lives here on earth. "In choosing circumstances of its birth, your soul was actually thinking, 'what circumstances do I need to help me evolve?' Your soul is nothing if not pragmatic and it's elected your family for its own personal development." He also describes how young soul's and old soul's personalities are being played out politically right now.
