    Awakening to Energy: The Path to Healing with Dr. Sue Morter

    Episode Summary:

    In this enlightening episode of How to Live a Fantastic Life, Dr. Allen Lycka sits down with the inspiring Dr. Sue Morter—international speaker, pioneer in quantum field exploration, and best-selling author of The Energy Codes. Dr. Morter shares her powerful story of healing, spiritual awakening, and the transformational power of living from the soul. Together, they explore how unresolved energy impacts the body, how to awaken dormant circuitry, and how quantum science affirms our ability to shape our reality through thought and intention.

    Meet Dr. Sue Morter:

    Raised in a family of natural healers, Dr. Sue has never taken antibiotics and grew up understanding the body’s innate capacity to heal. Her journey took a transformative turn when meditation—initially a tool to ease migraines—led her into multidimensional states of consciousness. These transcendent experiences not only healed her scoliosis and headaches but launched her into developing a replicable system for healing: The Energy Codes

    Living from the Soul, Not Toward It:

    Dr. Morter explains the difference between chasing spirituality and embodying it. Living from the soul means experiencing life from your highest self—not your personality. It brings deep presence, creative power, and resilience. The shift begins by turning inward, reclaiming your energy from external stimuli, and becoming aware that we are made of light at our core.

    How Blocked Energy Shows Up in the Body:

    Blocked or unresolved energy can manifest as chronic pain, illness, digestive issues, or immune deficiency. According to Dr. Morter, most energy blocks are linked to buried emotional trauma or unresolved experiences. Healing starts when we learn to decode the body’s signals and process those stored emotions.

    The Seven Energy Codes:

    Dr. Morter introduces the principles behind her seven-step healing system:

    1. Living in the Body: Stop living in your head and learn to listen to your body.
    2. Sensory Differentiation: Recognize where different emotional energies reside physically.
    3. Neurocircuit Rebuilding: Rewire your brain through awareness and intentional practices.
    4. Heart Coherence: Harness the power of love as a frequency, not just an emotion.
    5. Breathwork: Activate healing with deep belly breathing.
    6. Chemistry Shift: Understand how your thoughts influence internal pH and health.
    7. Source Connection: Awaken to your unbreakable link with Universal Intelligence.

    BIO:

    Dr. Sue Morter is a renowned international speaker, Master of Bio-Energetic Medicine, and a pioneer in Quantum Field exploration. As the #1 LA Times and USA Today bestselling author of “THE ENERGY CODES: The 7-Step System to Awaken Your Spirit, Heal Your Body and Live Your Best Life,” Dr. Sue shares profound insights on activating untapped energy and neurocircuitry within the body for healing and living into our full capacity. Her mission is to empower individuals to embrace their hidden potential and manifest their true, essential selves.

  • LIVE with The Famous Dr AL and Lauren Morgan
    May 7 2025

    In this powerful episode of How to Live a Fantastic Life, Dr. Allen Lycka welcomes Lauren Morgan, founder of Wild Wisdom. Lauren is a trauma recovery and business coach, energy master, and transformational guide who integrates Ayurveda, shamanism, and hypnosis to help women overcome self-sabotage and reclaim joy. She empowers her clients to transmute pain into purpose and build heart-centered businesses grounded in resilience.

    Personal Transformation

    Lauren opens up about her harrowing early years—battling depression, self-harm, addiction, and a mysterious illness that forced her to leave her career as a biopharmaceutical scientist. Her story is one of survival and awakening. A vivid moment walking her dogs led her to confront her childhood trauma and make a life-altering promise to love herself and live fully. That moment of surrender marked the beginning of her spiritual and emotional rebirth.

    The Healing Journey

    Faced with an undiagnosed condition and daily seizures, Lauren turned inward. A mistaken Amazon delivery introduced her to Ayurveda, which catalyzed her healing. She soon encountered shamanic practice and hypnosis, diving deep into energetic and subconscious transformation. These modalities didn’t just help her heal—they became part of who she is. “I wasn’t just learning them,” she says. “They became me.”

    Core Belief Work

    Lauren describes “core belief work” as the process of identifying deeply embedded, often unconscious narratives that shape our lives—like not feeling safe or worthy. By bringing these beliefs to light, people can stop unconsciously organizing their lives around fear. She encourages exploring small joys and dismantling conditioned identities by asking: “What’s truly me?”

    Embodied Leadership

    According to Lauren, embodied leadership means walking with your fear rather than avoiding it. It’s about owning your quirks, leading through authenticity, and giving others permission to be themselves. “Even if it’s dancing silly in your socks in the kitchen,” she says, “that kind of joy can move mountains.”

    Affirmations & Fire Symbolism

    Lauren’s eBooks—From Trauma to Transcendent and Warrior Transcendence—contain powerful affirmations rooted in elemental healing. One favorite: “I am a warrior of light. I am stronger than I know.” Another honors fire: “Fire brings rebirth and transformation.” She explains how, like the phoenix or fire-germinated seeds, we too can rise anew from destruction.

    Living a Fantastic Life

    Today, Lauren lives mostly off-grid in a camper with her husband, building a life aligned with their values. Her advice? “Find what fills you up. Joy doesn’t need to make sense to anyone else but you.” She reminds us that by releasing pain, we create space for love, compassion, and play.

    Unlocking the Power of the Heart with Dr. Lise Janelle

    Episode Summary:

    In this transformative episode, Dr. Allen Lycka welcomes renowned human potential expert and elite mindset coach Dr. Lise Janelle. Drawing from her background as a holistic chiropractor and decades of work in mind-body transformation, Dr. Janelle shares how reconnecting with the heart can unleash purpose, fulfillment, and emotional freedom. She introduces her powerful “Heart Freedom Method,” a practical tool that helps people release subconscious blocks and embrace their true worth.

    Guest Spotlight: Dr. Lise Janelle

    Based in Canada, Dr. Janelle has dedicated her life to helping people create meaningful, love-filled lives. Her approach is backed by neuroscience, psychology, and emotional healing techniques. Endorsed by transformational icons like Jack Canfield, her work emphasizes clarity, self-worth, and the transformational power of the heart. She’s also the founder of the Get Unstuck with Dr. Lise program and hosts transformational weekends.

    From Tragedy to Transformation

    Dr. Janelle’s journey began with profound personal loss. In the span of a month, she faced her father’s cancer diagnosis, the tragic death of her brother, and the end of a long-term relationship. These events launched her on a quest to understand how challenges can fuel personal growth. She learned from mentors like Dr. John Demartini and Dr. Scott Walker and combined their teachings into her signature method.

    The Heart Freedom Method

    This method blends neuro-emotional techniques with deep gratitude work to uncover and dissolve limiting beliefs stored in the subconscious. Through muscle testing and focused inquiry, clients discover the emotional blocks sabotaging their dreams. Once identified, those blocks can be cleared, allowing new possibilities to emerge.

    Breaking Through Subconscious Barriers

    Dr. Janelle explains how 90-95% of our decisions are driven by subconscious patterns, many formed in early childhood. These patterns often block people from wealth, love, or purpose—not out of malice, but from a misguided effort to protect us. By addressing the emotional roots, we can shift from limitation to liberation.

    Emotional Mastery and Heart Connection

    To live fully, Dr. Janelle says we must embody four heart-based states: love, gratitude, inspiration, and wisdom. Gratitude is the entry point—it opens the door to love, which brings clarity and inspired action. Releasing the illusion of unworthiness is essential, especially for parents raising emotionally healthy children.

    Heaven on Earth: Living in Stage Two

    Dr. Janelle describes two life stages: the unconscious “boot camp,” where we seek validation from the outside world, and the conscious stage, where we live from the heart. By moving into Stage Two, we stop reacting to life and start consciously creating a fulfilling existence based on purpose and self-worth.

    A Life Mission Fulfilled

    Since 1989, Dr. Janelle has followed her mission to help one million people reconnect with their hearts. Her message is simple but profound: everyone is worthy of love, and by listening to our inner wisdom, we can transform pain into power.

    BIO:

    Dr. Lise Janelle is a Human Potential Expert and Elite Mindset Coach who has been transforming lives since 1989. Drawing from her background as a holistic chiropractor and decades of experience in mind-body work, she developed the Heart Freedom Method™—a powerful system that helps individuals break free from subconscious barriers to success, love, and fulfillment. Recognized by transformational leaders like Jack Canfield, Dr. Janelle’s method is known for delivering rapid and lasting breakthroughs by reconnecting people with their hearts.

    Compassionate Leadership: Building Trust with Don Johnson

    INTRODUCTION

    In this inspiring episode, Dr. Allen Lycka welcomes leadership expert Don Johnson to discuss a powerful, people-centric approach to managing and engaging teams. Johnson, who has worked extensively with Native American tribes, shares his insights on trust, vulnerability, and the profound impact of compassion in leadership.

    THE JOURNEY INTO LEADERSHIP TRAINING

    Don Johnson’s leadership journey began unexpectedly when he transitioned into HR training after a career shift. His firsthand experience with management gaps in people skills led him to develop comprehensive leadership training programs, delivering 20–30 workshops annually.

    COMPASSION AS A LEADERSHIP FOUNDATION

    Johnson emphasizes that many leaders are promoted for technical expertise, not interpersonal skills. Compassion, he says, is the missing link. Teaching people skills and encouraging empathy helps leaders better understand, support, and retain their teams.

    BUILDING TRUST THROUGH VULNERABILITY

    Trust is essential, particularly in tribal communities where Johnson has done much of his work. He advocates for vulnerability as a leadership strength, citing Brene Brown’s wisdom: “Vulnerability is courage.” Sharing personal stories fosters authenticity, which builds trust and encourages reciprocal openness from team members.

    THE COST OF POOR LEADERSHIP

    Johnson notes the top reason employees leave jobs is poor management. Despite corporate narratives suggesting otherwise, leadership behavior often underlies employee dissatisfaction. Compassionate leadership—especially during times of trauma—can reverse disengagement and improve retention.

    COMMON MISTAKES AND HOW COMPASSION FIXES THEM

    Neglecting emotional engagement leads to clock-punching workers with minimal involvement. Johnson links engagement to trust and urges organizations to prioritize both. Trust-based cultures result in higher performance, productivity, and well-being.

    DR. LYCKA’S THREE CRUCIAL LEADERSHIP TRAITS

    Dr. Lycka highlights empathetic listening, recognition, and celebration as key tools. Recognition should be frequent, sincere, and specific. Johnson echoes this, referencing studies that show high-trust companies experience 74% less stress and 76% higher engagement.

    RECOGNITION IS POWERFUL—AND FREE

    A simple, heartfelt “thank you” from leadership can transform morale. Johnson recounts a personal story where a CEO’s note reinvigorated his commitment and engagement. He encourages leaders to “catch employees doing things right” at least five times more often than pointing out errors.

    REBUILDING TRUST PRACTICALLY

    To regain trust, leaders must be first to trust, support employees through challenges, and foster psychological safety. Johnson urges a shift from fixed to growth mindsets and warns against biases that hinder connection.

    NAVIGATING RESISTANCE TO CHANGE

    Transitioning to a people-centric model can meet resistance. Johnson recommends active listening, responding to employee feedback, and building a culture where voices are heard. As trust grows, resistance diminishes, and collaboration flourishes.

    BIO:

    Don Johnson has focused his work on better people management. He still works with a Native American Tribe teaching leadership skills but also provides his facilitation skills to help other organizations change their leadership approach to managing people. Johnson believes that compassion is the key. A key component of that thinking is building trust, while we see trust in leadership deteriorating in most organizations.

    Turning Ideas into Movements with Stacey Lauren

    Episode Summary:

    In this insightful episode, Dr. Allen Lycka welcomes TED Ed speaker, entrepreneur, and community architect Stacey Lauren. As the creator of the “Do the Thing” formula and the Comfort Circle Framework, Stacey shares how she helps people build momentum, find their voice, and monetize their passion by creating powerful communities and scalable movements. From launching podcasts to producing films, Stacey explains how challenges and shared goals can unlock massive potential.

    From Book Idea to Movement Architect

    Stacey Lauren's journey began as she transitioned out of a 20-year career in staffing. Attempting to write a book, she was advised to uncover her personal stories—but couldn’t recall them. What started as an effort to interview others for inspiration quickly became a podcast series of 100 episodes. Through these interviews, Stacey dissected the elements of goal achievement and developed her transformative momentum process.

    The Power of Challenges

    Stacey discovered that the same principles that helped individuals achieve personal goals could also empower groups. She began hosting structured challenges—on topics like dating, podcasting, and writing—and witnessed how these experiences bonded participants. Whether they were overcoming technical hurdles or imposter syndrome, the collective energy created a powerful dynamic where mutual support and success thrived.

    Monetizing Through Meaningful Engagement

    Initially focused on impact over income, Stacey unintentionally created a model that monetized naturally. After each challenge, participants asked, “What’s next?”—sparking the creation of memberships, masterminds, and inner circles. Stacey explains how selling becomes unnecessary when the focus is on helping people continue their growth journey. The community itself reveals what it needs, making monetization organic and meaningful.

    Masterminds and Group Wisdom

    Drawing on her own mastermind experiences, Stacey describes how small, trusted groups can accelerate both personal and business transformation. Dr. Lycka echoes this with examples from Napoleon Hill and Dan Kennedy, highlighting the power of collective intelligence. In a mastermind, members share their struggles and triumphs, offering support, ideas, and accountability—lifting each other to greater success.

    Balancing Creativity and Strategy

    Stacey reflects on the challenge of managing growth while maintaining creative energy. To avoid burnout, she realized the need to train facilitators and license her proven “Do the Thing” challenges rather than running them all herself. This shift allows her to maintain vision while scaling impact.

    Staying Energized and Inspired

    Stacey stays fueled by community engagement. She shares ideas in real-time with her Facebook group, documenting bold steps—like seeking a million-dollar movie sponsor. By letting others follow her journey, she not only stays motivated but empowers her audience through transparency and action.

    BIO:

    Stacey Lauren is a TEDx speaker, entrepreneur, and community architect who has revolutionized the way people turn ideas into movements, businesses, and films. Through her Comfort Circle Framework and Do The Thing Formula, she has developed a group momentum process that helps individuals rapidly move from finding their voice to sharing it, monetizing it, and creating a movement around it—scaling their impact into something extraordinary.

    From Wildfire to Community: The Story of Topanga Reach

    EPISODE GUESTS:

    Emily Bachman, Candice Belton & Ashley DeLuis

    Hosted by Dr. Allen Lycka

    EPISODE SUMMARY:

    In this moving episode, Dr. Allen Lycka speaks with three remarkable women—Emily Bachman, Candice Belton, and Ashley DeLuis—who emerged as grassroots leaders during one of California’s most devastating wildfire events. Centered in the Topanga Canyon area, where geography, isolation, and limited infrastructure heightened the fire's impact, this episode explores how the trio turned trauma into action, forming Topanga Reach in a Starbucks parking lot to bring aid, hope, and healing to a displaced community.

    INSIDE THE WILDFIRE EXPERIENCE:

    Candice shares her harrowing story of receiving alerts, facing 70+ mph winds, and evacuating with her pets. With prior trauma from Malibu fires, her “go bags” were still unpacked. Emily and Ashley reflect on feeling helpless—until realizing they were in a position to help. Fueled by gratitude and a shared background in events, they took action. What began with watching the fires via trail cams and doorbell footage soon became a shared mission of service and resilience.

    CHALLENGES OF TOPOGRAPHY & RESPONSE:

    Topanga’s rural setting made evacuations and firefighting efforts uniquely difficult. With only one road in and out, limited cell service, and a community filled with large animals, evacuations were complex and stressful. Simultaneous fires in Palisades and Pasadena diverted resources. Yet, luck, wind shifts, and international firefighter support prevented an even greater tragedy.

    CREATING A COMMUNITY HUB:

    What started as supplies in a U-Haul became a full-scale relief center thanks to Teamsters Local 399. In a Monty’s Steakhouse lot, they built a secure, stocked hub offering food, clothing, hygiene items, PPE, showers, and mental health support. Community members donated brand-new clothes, while organizations like GEM provided essential goods like air purifiers. Operating 16–20 hour days, their efforts served both residents and first responders alike.

    BEYOND EMERGENCY RELIEF:

    Topanga Reach’s mission now includes community rebuilding and future disaster preparedness. From pet food to smoke remediation kits, they maintain two donation-based storage units. With tourism and business down due to mudslides and road closures, their message is clear: “Visit Topanga, shop, stay, support.”

    HOW TO SUPPORT:

    Topanga Reach welcomes donations, volunteers, and partners. Help by following them on Instagram: @TopangaReach, visiting their website, or emailing love@TopangaReach.org.

    BIO:

    Born out of the chaos of the January 2025 wildfires, Topanga REACH is a woman-led organization focused on disaster relief and long-term community resilience. Co-founders Ashley, Candice, and Emily weren’t the only ones who showed up — but they were the ones who stayed and legitimized the efforts, bringing together decades of experience in marketing, logistics, brand strategy, and community building. With a shared passion for service and sustainability, they’ve turned a grassroots effort into dynamic, long-term support for Topanga. What began as neighbors helping to meet immediate needs to support first responders has grown into a mission to ensure the community is stronger, safer, and better prepared for whatever comes next. Today, Topanga REACH continues to provide essential resources, strengthen local connections, and plan for future disasters by staying rooted in local needs, applying lessons learned, and building adaptable systems designed to meet real-world challenges.

    From Combat to Calm: Neil Markey on Healing, Meditation, and Purpose

    Guest: Neil Markey, CEO & Co-Founder of Beckley Retreats

    Overview:

    In this episode, Dr. Allen Lycka welcomes Neil Markey, a former U.S. Army Special Operations Captain turned wellness entrepreneur. Neil shares his inspiring story of transformation—from leading missions in Iraq and Afghanistan to healing from PTSD and depression through mindfulness, meditation, and holistic practices. Now the CEO of Beckley Retreats, Neil is on a mission to bring others the tools he discovered on his journey to well-being.

    Key Topics:

    Military Journey & Turning Point

    Neil joined ROTC after 9/11 and served in both Iraq and Afghanistan with the elite Ranger Regiment. Despite thriving in a high-performance environment, he experienced deep trauma, sleep issues, and emotional burnout upon returning to civilian life.

    Mental Health & Mindfulness

    Struggling with PTSD and conventional treatments, Neil found a breakthrough in meditation. Guided by a fellow student, he began long-form programs that changed his life. He now meditates multiple times a day and uses gratitude as a daily grounding practice.

    Building Beckley Retreats

    After careers in entrepreneurship, consulting, and private equity, Neil returned to purpose-driven work. He partnered with a longtime psychedelic researcher to found Beckley Retreats—a space blending science-backed mindfulness, nature, and community for deep healing experiences.

    Advice for Seekers

    Many of Beckley’s clients are successful professionals who feel something’s missing. Neil advises leaning into that awareness. "If you’re noticing something’s off, keep going—self-exploration is the path forward," he says.

    Daily Rituals

    Neil recommends morning meditation, mindful meeting spacing, evening reflection, and daily gratitude. Even five minutes a day can help regulate the nervous system and build resilience.

    Purpose & Gut Health

    Neil reflects on advice he’d give his younger self: start meditating early and focus on gut health. Gut imbalance can deeply impact mental wellness, and functional medicine can often reveal what conventional care overlooks.

    Living a Fantastic Life

    Neil and Dr. Lycka agree: great lives are forged through storms. Purpose, health, balance, and daily habits help unlock fulfillment and resilience.
