We’re all carrying stories, wounds, and moments that have shaped us, and the question becomes, what does it truly take to heal them? Healing isn’t just about fixing what’s broken or chasing some perfect version of ourselves. It’s about weaving ourselves back together – and weaving ourselves back to one another. In the latest episode of Everlutionary, Hawah Kasat sits down with therapist, somatics teacher, and bestselling author, Prentis Hemphill to explore what healing means, why it’s inseparable from justice, and how the work of personal repair can ripple outward into collective transformation.

What does it mean to “walk on a feather” in a world weighed down by history, systems, and inherited wounds? How do psychedelics—once outlawed and feared—become teachers of tenderness, reciprocity, and healing? And what wisdom emerges when a lawyer rooted in both Anishinaabe and European ancestry braids modern law with Indigenous wisdom? Ariel Clark has spent nearly two decades navigating the intersecting worlds of cannabis, psychedelics, and Indigenous rights, all while carrying the complexity of her biracial identity. In this episode of Everlutionary, Hawah Kasat sits down with attorney and advocate, Ariel Clark to explore how colonization has shaped our systems, why her identity and legal work are inseparable from questions of justice, and how the “red road,” a path of devotion, humility, and balance, offers another way forward.

Did you know a single childhood moment can shape how we see ourselves for years? Picture yourself at ten years old, pressured to reveal your crush, only to be humiliated when classmates say you could never date her because your children would be “half black and half white.” How does racism follow a child into adulthood, and what does true healing look like decades later? In this solo episode of The Everlutionary Podcast, host Hawah Kasat takes you behind the curtain of his own story. He shares the moment, as a ten-year-old kid, when a classroom betrayal left him standing alone and questioning whether he belonged. He brings you to the soccer fields of suburban New Jersey, where racist slurs became part of the soundtrack of childhood. And he opens up about the day he shouted at his mother never to speak Hindi to him again, trading language and culture for the false promise of acceptance. But this isn’t just a story of wounds. Hawah also recalls an encounter years later with a former bully, this time not hurling insults, but offering an apology that cracked open the possibility of healing. Through raw storytelling, Hawah invites us to see how internalized racism shapes identity, how reconciliation can emerge in unexpected places, and why belonging is a form of liberation that we all deserve. Let’s dive in!

What if money, so often a source of harm, could become medicine for our collective healing? In this episode of The Everlutionary Podcast, host Hawah Kasat sits with Edgar Villanueva—Lumbee tribe member, award-winning author of Decolonizing Wealth, and Founder of the Decolonizing Wealth Project—to explore how philanthropy can move from colonial extraction to reparative giving. Edgar shares how confronting the origins of wealth, telling the truth about harm, and embracing cultural healing can transform both communities and donors. From the $1.8 trillion trapped in philanthropic endowments to his bold $1 trillion “moonshot” for reparative justice, he reveals what it takes to liberate capital in service of racial equity. Along the way, he weaves stories of his own spiritual journey, the resilience of Indigenous traditions, and the urgent work of healing systems from within. For over two decades, Edgar has advised global philanthropies, Fortune 500 companies, and grassroots movements, influencing more than $1 billion toward repair. His latest initiative, a $20 million youth mental health fund, centers culturally responsive care for young people of color and LGBTQ+ youth. This episode is a call to reimagine wealth, not as something to hoard, but as a living force that can restore dignity, repair relationships, and move us toward collective liberation.

What does it mean to face the truth of your ancestors’ role in colonization and take responsibility for repair?

In this episode of Everlutionary, Hawah Kasat sits down with writer, community organizer, and author of Becoming a Good Relative: Calling White Settlers Toward Truth, Healing, and Repair, Hilary Giovale, to explore the personal and collective work of becoming a “good relative” to the land, to one another, and future generations.

What does it mean to live inside patterns that refuse to die? In this solo episode of Everlutionary, Hawah Kasat reflects on colonization—not as history, but as a living system of domination. He shares the struggle of staying informed through the news while protecting his spirit, offering raw reflections on Washington, D.C., the city that raised him and now feels under siege. From the Trail of Tears to ICE raids, plantations to prison labor, colonization moves from land to bodies to memory. Even the Smithsonian museums are being pressured to soften or erase exhibits on slavery, racism, and police violence—an act of cultural genocide that sanitizes America’s blood-soaked roots. With urgency and tenderness, Hawah calls listeners to resist this erasure, to hold grief with joy, and to root deeply in lineage.

Broadcasting from Roots to Sky Sanctuary, he reflects on what it means to slow down and listen differently when everything inside and outside feels in flux. Moved by the recent I.C.E. raids in the United States, Hawah shares what’s been stirring in his heart, speaking honestly about the danger of silence, and how not naming injustice becomes its own form of violence. He weaves personal reflection with political truth, honoring the grief of these times while also making space for beauty. The episode closes with his spoken word piece “Sunrays and Moonbeams,” a poem he wrote while staying in a Shaolin monastery while in China. The poem is a stirring reminder that joy is our birthright and that even in moments of uncertainty, love will always find us.

We’re all bound by the experience of feeling something so strongly within ourselves, that it guides everything we do; leading us to our ups and through our downs. Those feelings are our values. Values don’t just belong in the charter of a company, painted on the walls of a workplace. They reside at the centre of your life, guiding your every action.

Together, they explore the essential ways values shape us, why it’s so important to identify and name our own personal values, and how this recognition can evoke mutual understanding, collective empathy, and global healing.

In this deeply personal and provocative episode of Everlutionary, host Hawah Kasat is joined by Tim Perreira, a former tech sales executive who traded in the corporate hustle for a path of purpose, healing, and holistic well-being. What unfolds is not just a conversation—it’s an invitation to reexamine everything we’ve been taught about what it means to be a man. Together, Hawah and Tim dive into the silent struggles that so many men face but rarely speak about: the pressure to succeed at all costs, the myth of the emotionless provider, and the socially accepted escape of drinking alcohol to feel connection. They unpack the ways in which toxic masculine norms are reinforced in corporate boardrooms and locker rooms—and how, slowly but surely, a new paradigm is emerging. One where men are allowed to feel. To cry. To slow down. To listen. This episode is a roadmap for anyone—especially men—who are ready to take off the masks, question inherited definitions of success, and begin living a life led by intuition rather than expectation. It’s about shedding the armor. About finding your North Star. And about building a world where healthy masculinity is not the exception, but the new norm.

Native American mythologies portray the mythical figure of “Wetiko” as a cannibalistic spirit who embodies greed and exploitation and can possess human beings. Modern thinkers interpret it as a “mind virus” or a force that can corrupt individuals and societies by leading them down a path of self-serving behavior and a disregard for others and the environment. Indigenous traditions see this as violating the sacred law of reciprocity, where one should give back to the world as much as one takes. In this episode of The Everlutionary Podcast, our host, Hawah Kasat, sits down with Cindy Forde, author of “Bright New World,” and the Founder of Planetari, to unpack how Earth-led education offers a transformative path to healing our relationship with the planet by shifting from an egocentric to an ecocentric worldview.
