This week at ease, we are back for our first guest of season two, Dr. Varun Soni! Dr. Soni joins the table for a soft, expansive conversation on what it means to find your North Star, even if you don’t believe in one. As a chaplain, scholar, and spiritual advisor, Varun helps us unpack what we’re really searching for when we say we feel lost. Together, we explore the quiet inner compass that lives beneath fear, anxiety, and doubt. From gut feelings to intuition, ego to inner knowing, this episode is for the seekers, skeptics, spiritual girls, and anyone trying to feel a little more grounded in their 20s. Varun shares how spirituality isn’t about having all the answers but instead learning to listen for the right questions. We talk about the loneliness of early adulthood, the difference between wisdom and noise, and how to find meaning in the small, unglamorous moments. It’s not about finding something to believe in, it’s about learning to trust what already lives within you. Enjoy!

Off the table, Nailea and Justus dive into a raw conversation about what it means to reinvent yourself in the new year, not through chasing trends or leaving everything behind, but by returning to who you were before the world told you who to be. They reflect on the pressure to “glow up” every new year, the parts of us we’ve buried to survive, and how healing often looks like softness, not spectacle. From unlearning shame to learning how to actually see yourself again, this episode is a reminder that growth doesn’t have to be loud, and maybe the version of you you’ve been looking for is the one that’s been waiting to come home all along.

Looking into the new year, Nailea and Justus reflect on everything that shaped them in 2025. From the surprises, to the growth, to the small wins they didn’t see coming. They talk about letting go of old habits, what they’re still working through, and how they’re approaching 2026 with more clarity and care. It’s soft, honest, and a little messy, in the way most growth is. Think of it as a year-end reset, here to remind you that you don’t have to figure it all out to move forward.

This week at ease, Dave Henderson joins the table for a gentle, unexpected conversation about legacy, family, and all the invisible work that holds us up. Dave spent decades building medical offices across California, but really, he was building something deeper: trust, consistency, and a community within his business. In this episode, we talk about why jobs aren’t forever, why success has to come from within, and how your job isn’t your purpose. Dave opens up about carrying a family business, leading quietly, navigating early failures, and the moment he realized that real purpose isn’t found in titles but in how you show up for people. We explore what it means to build a legacy you’re proud of, how structure can be healing, and why the strongest foundations are often the ones no one sees. Dave also shares how he’s learning to pass down more than just a business. He’s passing down intention, integrity, and promise. It’s an episode about presence, pressure, and choosing to lead with heart, even when no one’s watching. Enjoy!
