Feeling off doesn’t mean you’re broken.
More often, it means your body has been living too long without safety, stillness, and breath in a noisy world.

In this episode, we sit down with breathwork guide Steve Beattie, whose journey from chronic inflammation and repeated hospital visits to a more calm, grounded way of living began not with force—but with a simple, daily return to the breath. Along the way, an unexpected emotional release opened the door to deeper healing.

Steve gently demystifies the Wim Hof Method, offers important safety considerations, and then widens the lens: breath isn’t a brand—it’s a bridge back to yourself.

We explore why breath works, not as a hack, but as a handoff—from reaction to response. When the exhale slows, the nervous system listens. The mind checks in. Space opens. That pause can soften anxiety, de-escalate conflict, and interrupt the restless loops of stimulation our phones and feeds quietly train us to crave. Steve also explains how chronic stress and cortisol keep the body inflamed—and how small, repeatable breathing practices can begin to restore balance.

You’ll hear a powerful story of teens learning box breathing, hiking in rhythm with their breath, and stepping into an icy lake with surprising steadiness. The lesson isn’t toughness—it’s ownership. Meeting stress on your terms.

We close with simple practices you can take into your real life:
• a one-minute box breath to refocus
• a five-breath reset to return to yourself
• a morning intention that begins before your phone does

Along the way, we reflect on community, fire circles, and the old proverb “run toward the roar,” reimagined not as force—but as a gentle willingness to meet what scares us with presence.

If something in this conversation stirs you, don’t rush to change everything.
Take one small step: one pause, one breath, one clear choice.

Your breath is the bridge.
Walk it with us.

What if intention isn’t something you set, but something you inhabit—a way of being that changes the atmosphere wherever you go?

In this conversation, we sit with Kim Stanwood Terranova, spiritual teacher and counselor, to explore intention as an inner practice that moves us from reactivity to coherence. Kim invites us to see intention not as a wish for outcomes, but as a steady orientation toward qualities like presence, compassion, and courage—qualities that quietly shape how we speak, listen, and show up in everyday moments.

Together, we reflect on the widening gap between outer technology and inner technology, and how to restore balance without shame, striving, or perfectionism. Kim shares simple, human practices—two-minute breaths, short prayers, no-phone pauses, and intentional check-ins—that help us listen more deeply and respond with clarity rather than urgency. She also offers a gentle reframe on intention-setting: choosing the qualities we want to embody, rather than clinging to specific results.

One of the most grounding moments in the episode is Kim’s nightly acknowledgment practice—writing down five small, specific ways you showed up well that day. This simple ritual softens the “not enough” narrative, builds self-trust, and opens us to receive support and grace with greater ease.

We close with a model intention you can carry into the new year, along with practical ways to bring intention into your mornings, meetings, and moments that matter most. If you’re longing for less noise and more true guidance—less doing and more being—this conversation offers a calm, steady place to begin.

Some health stories look polished on the outside while quietly falling apart behind the scenes. This conversation moves in the opposite direction.

In this episode, we sit down with Jess — a mother of four and grounded health coach — for an honest conversation about healing body image anxiety, releasing disordered patterns around food, and stepping out of the all-or-nothing mindset that keeps so many mothers stuck.

Jess shares how pregnancy, twins, and the realities of motherhood shifted her understanding of health from “getting smaller” to nourishing a life. Together, we explore the pressure modern mothers carry — perfectionism, comparison, and unrealistic expectations — and why rigid rules often lead to shame rather than change.

Instead, Jess offers compassionate structure: flexible rhythms that adapt to seasons, sleep, and real capacity. Movement becomes stress relief, not punishment. Food becomes nourishment, not a moral test. One of the most surprising shifts? Setting boundaries with screens — and how going phone-free in the evenings brought more calm, connection, and consistency into her home.

We close with three gentle practices mothers can begin this week, rooted in presence, simplicity, and grace. This is a sustainable vision of health — one that honors motherhood as it actually is.
