    • 450. “Your Brain Is Wired for Transcendence” | Spiritual Intelligence and the Science of Awakening with Dawson Church
      Jan 26 2026

      In this episode, we welcome back Dawson Church, bestselling science writer and researcher whose work has helped bridge the gap between neuroscience and human transformation. With more than 100 peer-reviewed studies to his name and collaborations with leading institutions, Dawson joins us to explore ideas from his latest book, Spiritual Intelligence, which maps what actually happens in the brain during elevated states of consciousness.


      Our conversation centers on a powerful reframe: transcendent experiences are not rare or reserved for monks. They are built into our biology. Dawson shares how neuroscience now shows consistent brain patterns behind compassion, awe, and self-transcendence, regardless of belief system. Even brief, accessible practices like meditation and conscious breathing can quiet the brain’s stress centers, activate compassion, and lead to measurable changes in emotional regulation, creativity, and resilience.


      We also explore why inner states matter so much for outer change. As spiritual intelligence develops, it becomes a leverage point that influences how we relate to our bodies, our relationships, and the world around us, offering a grounded, science-backed path toward calm, clarity, and kindness.

    • 449. “You Have More Control Than You Think” | Reclaiming Brain Health and Longevity with Dr. Ryan Williamson
      Jan 19 2026

      In this episode, we’re joined by Dr. Ryan Williamson, a board-certified neurologist, Navy veteran, and founder of Transcend Health. With a background spanning clinical neurology, military performance medicine, and executive longevity coaching, Dr. Williamson brings a rare perspective on what it truly takes to protect the brain and extend healthspan. His work centers on prevention over reaction, helping people stay sharp, resilient, and fully engaged long before illness ever enters the picture.


      Our conversation explores a simple but confronting truth: modern life is quietly undermining brain health. Dr. Williamson explains how evolutionary biology collides with today’s sedentary, overstimulated environment, and why cognitive decline is often shaped more by habits than by fate. He introduces practical, evidence-based principles that restore balance, from breathwork and sleep to movement, nutrition, and human connection. None are extreme, and all are accessible.


      What resonates most is the sense of agency. This episode reframes cognitive health as something we actively build day by day, not something we passively inherit. Small, consistent choices compound into sharper thinking, greater presence, and a longer, more capable life.

    • 448. “You Are Not Alone in This” | Parenting, Sobriety, and the Truth About Recovery with Sarah Benton
      Jan 12 2026

      In this episode, we sit down with Sarah Benton, a licensed mental health counselor, alcohol and drug counselor, and the author of Understanding the High-Functioning Alcoholic and Parents in Recovery. Sarah brings both clinical expertise and lived experience to the conversation, sharing her own journey of recovery and the clarity it gave her as a therapist, parent, and advocate. Her work has been featured in major media outlets, yet her perspective remains grounded in compassion and practicality.


      Our conversation explores what it really means to build a sober life as a parent, not by simply removing substances, but by reshaping daily rhythms, boundaries, and identity. Sarah challenges the myth that recovery is a single decision rather than a lifestyle, and she speaks candidly about why honest conversations with children matter more than silence shaped by stigma. We also examine the modern pressures parents face, from digital overload to social drinking norms, and how self-awareness can interrupt cycles before they take root.


      This episode is an invitation to replace shame with curiosity, and isolation with connection, for anyone questioning their relationship with substances or supporting someone who is.
