Former Tao Group partner turned somatic guide Amanda Baudier (also former GM Melissa Wood Health / VP Sakara Life) joins Ariana Cleo for a powerful conversation on breaking free from corporate burnout and stepping into the spiritual life that "chose" her. Amanda recounts the shocking story of delaying necessary heart surgery at age 27 to open a nightclub, recognizing her former self as a "walking zombie" and a "machine" driven by "shadow career after shadow career" until she finally surrendered to her calling.

Now dedicated to earth-based "woo," Amanda introduces her "Healing Blueprint," recommending the "gold standard" of hired somatic experiencing alongside the accessible power of daily Altar Work, which she says even her CEO clients utilize. In a series of hot takes, she views the field of coaching as a "cesspool" and cautions that plant medicine is now "excessive, under regulated, [and] under integrated." Amanda also delves into how personal suffering, including the experience of a miscarriage, became a "portal" that taught her to receive care, and shares the principle of "Spider Medicine" as the ultimate divine feminine manifestation energy: "I don't chase—I attract."

Host Ariana sits down with Maya Crowne, CEO & Co-Founder of Alchemist, to discuss her journey from Wall Street to launching a mineral-based, non-toxic paint company. Maya credits a transformative 2019 plant medicine experience for starting a new life chapter and meeting her co-founder. The discussion explores the dark side of conventional paint—the largest source of microplastics in the ocean—and how Alchemist's mineral paint, which uses clear crystal quartz as a binder, creates "guardianship" and a sacred home environment.
