What if healing isn’t about becoming better—but about finally coming home to yourself?

Somatic coach, writer, and Hey, Wait podcast host Jay Moon Fields shares her deeply human journey through shame, embodiment, spiritual awakening, and the hard-earned wisdom that came from learning to forgive herself. From living wild and free in nature to navigating marriage, betrayal, bankruptcy, and legacy-breaking moments, Jay reveals how the body—not the mind—holds the key to real change.

Together, Jay and Maira explore what it truly means to live somatically, how choice emerges through embodiment, and why having a good experience of yourself might be the most radical practice there is.

In this episode, we explore:

• Why embodiment creates real choice (and ends survival-mode living)
• Healing shame through self-compassion, not self-improvement
• What it means to be a mystic in everyday, modern life

If you’ve ever felt disconnected, contracted, or quietly lost—this conversation is an invitation to soften, breathe, and remember who you are.

What if healing isn’t about fixing yourself—but about being deeply, safely met?

In this powerful conversation, Stephen Terrell—psychotherapist, teacher, and self-described parasympathetic mechanic—shares the story behind his life’s work: a childhood shaped by profound trauma, instability, and loss, and a long, nonlinear journey toward nervous system regulation, compassion, and relational safety. Together with Maira, Stephen explores how early adversity became the medicine he now offers others through therapeutic touch, somatic regulation, and radical presence.

This episode is a masterclass in slowing down, listening to the body, and letting go of the healer’s ego in favor of creating the conditions where healing can naturally emerge.

In this episode, you’ll explore:

• Why the parasympathetic nervous system is the foundation of safety, connection, and healing
• How “doing nothing” can be profoundly therapeutic
• Reclamation vs. release: integrating trauma without abandoning parts of yourself

If you’re a clinician, healer, or human longing for deeper regulation and real connection, this conversation will meet you exactly where you are—and gently invite you further in.

This podcast wasn't always called Healing For Grown Ass Adults. A year and a half ago, when I started recording and preparing this podcast, it was called Life Mystic. As you listen to this episode, know that I was going through the process of figuring out how to be me in an expression different from my role as a somatic therapist and psychedelic medicine practitioner. I invite you to listen to this conversation with an open mind and an understanding that we are all always in process.

What if the very thing you were taught to hate about yourself became your greatest gift to the world?

In this deeply moving conversation, Maira sits down with queer therapist and founder of I Am Clinic, Isaac Archuleta, who shares his journey from growing up as the son of conservative ministers—steeped in toxic and traumatic shame—to reclaiming his body, his desires, and his inherent value. Isaac opens up about the moment his healing began, how shame became trauma in his nervous system, and the powerful tools that helped him integrate his identity, heal developmental wounds, and transform suffering into service.

Together, Maira and Isaac explore how mindfulness, somatic therapy, inferential CBT, relational repair, and psychedelic-assisted therapy can reconnect us to our bodies and restore a felt sense of safety, dignity, and self-trust.

In this episode, you’ll hear about:

• The difference between everyday shame and traumatic shame—and how it hijacks the nervous system
• Why authenticity is the lived experience of inherent value, not just a mindset
• How somatic healing, titration, and relational repair can turn a “torture chamber” body into heaven on earth

If you’ve ever felt split inside, disconnected from your body, or unworthy of love, this episode is an invitation to remember who you are—and to discover what becomes possible when shame is no longer in the driver’s seat.

What if your body already knows the life you’re meant to live—and it’s been trying to tell you all along?

In this episode of Life Mystic, Maira sits down with Celina Gorre, CEO of WomenHeart, global health leader, and lifelong seeker, to explore how grief, illness, embodiment, and intuition can become powerful guides rather than obstacles. Celina shares how losing her mother at 18 shaped her devotion to living fully, how a heart disease diagnosis transformed her advocacy and leadership, and why refusing to live someone else’s dream may be one of the most radical acts of self-care.

Together, Maira and Celina dive into somatics, mysticism in everyday life, Filipino American identity, and what it means to cultivate a respectful, listening relationship with the body—especially in a culture that teaches us to override it.

In this episode, you’ll hear about:

• How grief and diagnosis can become medicine rather than limitations
• What it means to feel “fully yourself” in the body—not just the mind
• Living mysticism through nature, slowness, and everyday awareness
• Leading with integrity, compassion, and regulation in women’s health

This conversation is an invitation to slow down, breathe deeper, and remember: life isn’t just about surviving—it’s about inhabiting your body, your values, and your joy, one conscious choice at a time.

What if nothing is wrong with you… and you’re just in process?

In this raw and powerful debut, somatic therapist Maira Holzmann introduces a new kind of healing, one rooted in radical responsibility, emotional maturity, and unapologetic truth. She shares her own journey through trauma, self-abandonment, and transformation, while redefining what it really means to become a “grown ass adult.”

This is not about quick fixes or performing healing. It is about doing the real work and staying with yourself when it gets hard.

In this episode, you’ll explore:

• Why healing is a lifelong process, not a finish line
• How your nervous system and body hold the key to transformation
• The courage it takes to break survival patterns and choose yourself

If you’re ready to stop outsourcing your power and start showing up fully for your life, this is your invitation.

You are not behind. You are not broken. You are becoming. And you don’t have to do it alone.
