Is it really possible to choose joy after the death of a child? My conversation with Melissa Hull is a profound testament that it is. She reveals how a miraculous letter became her lifeline and how she made the intentional, daily choice to heal, using everything from 15-minute gratitude practices to Reiki and painting. Her story isn't about moving on, but about moving forward with love, and building a life so big that it honors both the loss and the love.

In this episode, I sit down with Gerard Powell, a man who had it all from the outside—multimillions, fast cars, and luxury homes—but was utterly broken inside. After decades of self-destruction, and two suicide attempts, even intensive therapy couldn't reach the root of his pain. In a final, desperate act, he turned to plant medicine. What happened there didn't just save his life; it revealed a childhood trauma he had completely buried and gave him a new heart—literally. Jerry now runs Rythmia, a licensed plant medicine center, and shares the data-backed transformations he's witnessed in nearly 20k people. This conversation is a raw look at how we can become disconnected from our soul and the powerful paths that can lead us back home.

I sit down with Dr. David Rosmarin, an associate professor at Harvard Medical School and a pioneer bridging the worlds of spirituality and clinical psychology. We explore a powerful, yet often ignored, truth in mental health: that for many, emotional distress is a crisis of meaning and spirit. David shares the fascinating research from his work at McLean Hospital, and we tackle the tough questions—are we over-medicalizing normal human anxiety? Could connecting with our spiritual nature be a more effective path to healing? This is a crucial conversation about bringing the soul back into mental health care.
