On this episode of Inner Light, George Rivera—creator of Father First and author of Buy Back Time Formula—breaks down how founders can escape the cortisol–dopamine “busy loop,” stop being the bottleneck, and reclaim 10–20 hours a week without shrinking the business. George shares the pivotal moment with his late father that reframed how he structures work and family, then lays out practical frameworks: calendar/freedom audits, SOPs, outcome-based delegation, the “$10K-per-hour” filter, and the two-week vacation test. It’s a direct, no-fluff roadmap to double your business while doubling your family time—so you’re present for what actually matters.   About the guest : George Rivera is a founder and systems thinker who scaled his company from $20M to $50M after he redesigned his role around high-leverage work, outcome ownership, and principled delegation. His Buy Back Time Formula helps leaders free themselves from operational drag and become present, values-aligned parents and partners—without sacrificing growth.   Key takeaways: A defining promise—“Don’t miss Leo’s games”—became George’s operating principle: family presence is non-negotiable. If you’re answering the same questions weekly, document once (SOP/video) and redirect; protect founder attention for growth work. Run a calendar/freedom audit for two weeks; tag each task: founder-level or delegable. Use the $10K-per-hour filter (adapt the number to your value): if a task could be done for a fraction of your hourly leverage, delegate it. Delegate outcomes, not tasks. Give clarity on success criteria, constraints, and decision rights so work returns finished, not bounced back. Accept “80% right” as a starting point; with repetition, capable teammates surpass your 100%. Set purchase thresholds (e.g., under $500 = team discretion). This removes micro-decisions and speeds execution. Schedule sabbaticals/micro-sabbaths and daily gratitude; gratitude crowds out stress and resets attention. Test your systems with a two-week vacation: the goal is business continuity without you as the router. Growth and presence can co-exist if you commit to frameworks, review leaks, and keep re-aligning work to purpose.   How to connect with the guest   Website: buybacktimeformula.comBook: Buy Back Time Formula (details on the website)   Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?

On Inner Light, we get practical about building a business without manipulative tactics. Copywriter and founder of Bolt From the Blue Copywriting, Rachel Allen shares how she shifted from “do it all” hustle to boundaries, values-led decisions, and messaging that treats customers like adults. We cover the “big lie of marketing,” why depth of relationship now beats mass visibility, how to say no to misaligned work, and what burnout reveals when you finally stop. This episode is straight talk for entrepreneurs who want authentic marketing, conscious business growth,     About the guest  : Rachel Allen is a strategist and copywriter with 16+ years of global experience. She leads Bolt From the Blue Copywriting, helping founders communicate with honesty, clarity, and measurable impact.     Key takeaways  : Treat people like people: human-centered copy that respects a reader’s intelligence outperforms clickbait and pressure tactics. The “big lie of marketing”: solo founders don’t need to execute like multinational brands. Pick a few channels you can sustain; ignore the rest. Depth beats noise: buying decisions increasingly happen in small, trusted circles (DM groups, private chats). Make sure friends of your buyers trust you. Values over revenue: walking away from ethically misaligned clients strengthens reputation and long-term demand. Global lens, shared drivers: across markets, core motivations are stable—safety, belonging, self-respect. Anchor stories there. Visibility vs. connection: be visible enough to start conversations, then prioritize relationship depth to close. Boundaries protect creativity: time-boxed work, deliberate offline time, and quarterly reset weeks improve client work. Burnout’s lesson: overworking often masks discomfort. Real relief comes from addressing underlying fears, not more output.   Connect with the guest   Website: boltfromthebluecopywriting.com LinkedIn: Rachel Allen Substack & Instagram: Bolt from the Blue Email: hello@boltfromthebluecopywriting.com   Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?

On Inner Light, we get practical about commercial real estate and performance mindset with Eric Burns. From a rough duplex renovation to scaling into commercial assets, Eric explains how to convert mistakes into systems, separate emotion from analysis, structure goals that actually get done, and use mindfulness to make clearer decisions under pressure. This concise, no-fluff conversation covers risk (leverage, floating-rate debt), market cycles, passive vs. active roles, and the discipline required to stay steady when the numbers or news turn noisy. If you want sustainable real estate results without the hype—start here.   About the Guest   Eric Burns is a commercial real estate investor and former firefighter who built his operator skill set the hard way—by fixing early errors, mastering rehab timelines and costs, and applying those lessons to scalable CRE strategies.   Key Takeaways: Early failures compound into strengths: a tough duplex rehab taught timelines, holding costs, and construction scope—skills that transfer to CRE underwriting and execution. Don’t let emotion drive deals: over-leverage and floating-rate debt amplify downside; build in buffers and stress tests. Goal architecture that works: 10-year goals can feel impossible; 5-year goals should stretch; short-term goals must be practical and measurable. Avoid analysis paralysis: momentum plus mentorship beats perfection. Start small (SFH, duplex, or a passive LP position) and learn deliberately. Separate passive from active: landlording is a job; passive CRE should not feel like one—choose deals and operators accordingly. Market perspective: nothing lasts forever—good or bad. Create action plans for vacancies, revenue lifts, and expense control before you need them. Mindfulness as an edge: calmer minds produce better creativity, scenario planning, and leadership under stress. Define success as freedom and experiences, not just a number; keep ambition in check so you don’t miss life while chasing outcomes.   How to Connect with Eric   LinkedIn Website: https://flowerscapital.com/   Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?

In this Inner Light conversation, certified transformation coach and Glow Living founder Chandra Lynn lays out a practical path from overwhelm to fulfillment using her Root to Rise framework. We unpack the six human needs (adapted from Maslow), how unmet security/certainty traps us in survival mode, and why journaling, meaning-making, and body movement flip your emotional state. Chandra explains her Emotional Triad (physiology, focus, language) and shows how to balance body–mind–spirit so your purpose and progress translate into real momentum. If you’re stuck on autopilot, doing more but feeling less, this episode gives you a clear, actionable reset for work, relationships, and personal growth. SEO: emotional resilience, journaling prompts, six human needs, Root to Rise, meaning making, overwhelm, burnout, self-love, Innerte podcast, Glow Living, Chandra Lynn.   About the guest   Chandra Lynn is a certified transformation coach, author of Root to Rise: How to Love Life, and founder of Glow Living. She blends human-needs psychology with spiritual practices to help people meet their needs in healthy, sustainable ways.   Key takeaways: Start with security: If your certainty/safety needs are threatened, you’re in survival mode. Stabilize that first; only then can growth and contribution stick. Map your roots: Use a quick needs assessment across five life roots to see where you’re serving needs in low- vs high-quality ways—and where you’re stuck. Name the drivers: Her free quiz reveals the “hidden forces” (human needs) behind past decisions so you can meet those needs consciously going forward. Journal with intent: Ask three questions daily—What do I want? Why do I want it? What am I willing to do about it?—to avoid scattered tactics and regain focus. Use the Emotional Triad: Shift emotions by changing physiology (move, breathe, posture), focus (what deserves attention today), and language/meaning (reinterpret stories you tell yourself). Morning & night anchors: Brain-dump journaling at night for better sleep; light movement and brief reflection in the morning to clear “cobwebs” and set priorities. Purpose with boundaries: Progress toward purpose fuels joy, but don’t dim your light by over-serving others; meet your own needs to serve at a higher level. Softness and strength: Resilience is adaptive—sometimes you soften (self-compassion), sometimes you toughen up (ownership and standards).

On this episode of Inner Light, we explore a simple, repeatable shift: move from constant self-judgment to grateful observation. Executive and life coach Barbara Palmer breaks down how noticing—without labeling—reduces stress, sharpens decision-making, and strengthens relationships at home and at work. We cover habit loops, energy drain from judgment, and a one-minute “observe without labels” drill you can use today. This conversation is direct, grounded, and built for leaders, creators, and anyone ready to trade reactivity for clarity.   About the Guest:   Barbara Palmer is a certified health and MAP executive & life coach, author, and facilitator of personal and professional transformation. She helps high achievers release the inner critic, lead with calm focus, and cultivate gratitude as a daily operating system.   Key Takeaways:   Grateful observation separates the observer from thoughts and emotions, creating space to choose responses rather than react. Judgment is a learned program; it consumes energy and narrows perception, while gratitude expands options and creativity. Try the 1-minute Observe-Only Drill: open your eyes and look around without naming, labeling, or evaluating anything. Build from one minute up. Applying observe-only mode in traffic or other triggers reveals that much of our upset is story-driven, not situation-driven. Leaders grounded in gratitude focus on solutions over blame, improving culture, innovation, and team performance. Comparison and competition are by-products of judgment; gratitude supports confidence without comparison. Use imagination for peace, not fear: rehearse desired futures that generate calm and momentum. Daily practice: scan your environment and name three specific, present-moment things you’re genuinely grateful for.   Connect with the Guest   Website: bplifecoachingservices.com Book a complimentary 30-minute discovery session via the website.   Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?

On this Inner Light episode, we cut through the fluff and get practical about three fundamentals that keep founders sane and businesses steady: self-awareness, clear boundaries, and simple positive feedback loops. Bradley Taylor shares how reshaping their social circle, protecting focus time, and communicating expectations turned late-night chaos into reliable delivery—across donuts, food trucks, and community-driven ventures. Expect straight talk on preventing burnout, modeling respectful culture, and using reflection to make better calls under pressure. If you lead people or projects, this is a playbook for sustainable growth you can implement today. About the Guest  : Bradley Taylor is an entrepreneur and community builder whose ventures span food, mobile retail, and real-estate education for BBG and queer entrepreneurs. Their approach blends grit, creative problem-solving, and disciplined self-reflection to build teams and systems that actually work. Key Takeaways  : Self-awareness is the operational baseline: your business mirrors your habits, standards, and blind spots. Audit your social circle: peers who pull you off-mission drain execution; choose proximity that supports focus. Boundaries aren’t walls; they’re workflows: communicate constraints upfront (time, quality, delivery), then enforce. Signal respect both ways: when teammates see you protect deep-work blocks, they learn to protect them too. Build simple feedback loops: set expectations, observe, course-correct without shaming, and close the loop. Catch “quiet killers”: small misses compound (timers, handoffs, QA). Fix root causes before they scale. Leaders can be friendly and firm: define topics/contexts you won’t engage in as a boss to avoid role drift. Reflection creates momentum: short “self-audit” windows after sprints turn mistakes into repeatable wins. Decision inputs flex by situation: start with intuition for prioritization, validate with experience/data. Leave one door open: hold standards while staying adaptable to unfamiliar edge cases.

On Inner Light with Saima, global speaker, dream interpreter, and spiritual strategist Caleb Matthews breaks down his SSB Method for aligning spirit, soul, and body—so your daily choices match your DNA of design. We get practical: how to run a “census of your senses,” spot when you’re drifting from alignment, use morning rituals and dream journaling, and apply Caleb’s Three Cs—Construct, Conform, Contract—to avoid copying someone else’s path. Clear, grounded, and immediately usable for creators, founders, and seekers who want spiritual clarity without losing real-world traction.   About the guest   Caleb Matthews is a global speaker, dream interpreter, and spiritual strategist. For two decades he’s taught practical spirituality across diverse settings—from New Age festivals to Bible colleges. He shares tools for decoding dreams, cultivating peace, and walking in the SeeLink between the unseen and the seen.   Key takeaways: SSB Method = alignment: bring spirit, soul, body into coherence so daily actions reflect your DNA of design. SeeLink principle: everything visible begins in the invisible—treat spirituality as the bridge to practical outcomes. Armor analogy: don’t wear someone else’s “armor.” Build a life that fits your gifts rather than duplicating a guru’s blueprint. Three Cs: Construct your authentic design, resist Conform(ity) to crowd pressure, be careful what you Contract (agree) with—your agreements shape your future. Census of your senses: periodically audit what you see, hear, speak, consume, and commit to; ask, “Is this good or truly best?” Alignment signals: trust conscience and gut feedback; misalignment feels forced, draining, or foggy. Cultivate peace: start mornings slowly with gratitude, meditation/prayer, and dream journaling; peace is the “potting soil of revelation.” Vision practice: before work, envision how you’ll show up; what we behold, we become. Context-aware language: speak to people’s definitions of spirituality; hold your values while meeting others where they are. Action starter: list 3 energizing strengths, 3 forced efforts, and one contract (belief/commitment) to renegotiate this week.   Connect with the guest   Website (speaking/content): http://www.calebmatthews.net/ YouTube: The SeeLink  Workspace/Airbnb for creators: www.theitinerantoasis.com Instagram: Caleb on the runway X/Twitter: Caleb Matthws   Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?

On Inner Light, we dig into what healing really demands when the body says “stop.” Licensed therapist–turned–business mentor Lauren Nicole Balterman explains how chronic illness forced her to confront perfectionism, regulate her nervous system, and rebuild identity from the inside out. We cover parts work (IFS), nervous system imprinting, high-achiever patterns, and why mindset changes don’t stick without physiological safety. This is a clear, no-fluff guide for entrepreneurs and professionals navigating invisible illness, burnout, and the pressure to perform   About the Guest : Lauren Nicole Balterman is a licensed therapist and business mentor. After facing multiple chronic health challenges, she integrated psychology, identity work, and nervous system regulation to help leaders align strategy with sustainable well-being.   Key Takeaways : Healing accelerated when Lauren moved from “Why is this happening to me?” to acknowledgement and agency, shifting from resistance to learning. Perfectionism/high achievement kept her pushing through symptoms; progress began when she released control and met herself with compassion. Mindset work helped, but change stuck only after nervous system regulation addressed deeper survival imprints (“we’ll keep you stuck/safe”). Parts work (IFS) revealed competing inner roles (high-achiever, anxious protector); integrating them reduced self-sabotage and overwork. Medical care mattered, yet checklists alone didn’t heal; identity, beliefs, and behavior needed coordinated shifts. Behavioral adaptation (small, consistent actions in the “new identity”) anchored change more than big resets. Community—first online, then in person—countered isolation common with invisible illnesses and rebuilt self-trust. Redefining leadership meant being effective without constant overdrive, honoring capacity while serving clients well.Policy review: Based on the transcript, content does not violate YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, or LinkedIn Community Guidelines.

In this thought-provoking episode of Inner Light, we explore how intuition — that quiet, persistent inner voice — can transform not only your business but your entire life. Our guest, Joseph Drolshagen, also known as The Rapid Growth Specialist, reveals how trusting divine guidance can create massive shifts in mindset, career, and relationships. Drawing from a near-fatal motorcycle accident and decades of coaching leaders and entrepreneurs, Joseph shares how intuition bridges the gap between logic and flow. This conversation dives deep into subconscious mindset training (SMT), habit alignment, and the courage to act on intuitive nudges even when logic disagrees. Tune in to discover how listening to your inner guidance can fast-track your growth, unlock peace, and awaken your purpose — one intuitive decision at a time. About the Guest:   Joseph Drolshagen is a transformational coach, speaker, and creator of the SMT Method (Subconscious Mindset Training). With a background in corporate leadership and a doctorate in psychology, he helps individuals and businesses achieve rapid results by aligning intuition, mindset, and inspired action. His clients have transformed struggling companies into thriving enterprises by embracing intuitive decision-making. Joseph is also the author of a bestselling book on the SMT Method and a passionate advocate for faith-based personal growth.Website: www.coachwithjoey.com Key Takeaways : Intuition is not abstract — it’s a divine guidance system within each of us, waiting to be heard and trusted. True transformation begins when logic and intuition work together, not against each other. Ignoring inner nudges can have real-world consequences — as Joseph’s motorcycle accident taught him to listen deeply. The SMT Method helps bridge the “knowing-doing” gap by rewiring subconscious patterns that block growth. Imagination and intuition are far more powerful than logic alone for achieving exponential business and life results. Habits aligned with intuition lead to flow, fulfillment, and freedom from burnout. Every success story contains moments that defy logic — that’s the voice of intuition in action. Courage to act on intuition separates dreamers from doers in business, relationships, and self-development. Faith, self-trust, and subconscious alignment accelerate growth far faster than strategy alone. The inner voice is your compass — learn to quiet the noise and follow it with confidence.

In this inspiring episode of Inner Light, with host Aanya, we sit down with Polish Peter Kolat, an author, speaker, and transformational coach who journeyed from a 14-year-old immigrant in Detroit with no English to a successful entrepreneur known as “the Polish Tony Robbins.” Peter opens up about the cultural shock of starting over, the power of perseverance, and how hitting rock bottom became the catalyst for lasting transformation. He reveals how reframing “Why is this happening to me?” into “How is this happening for me?” changed his life and business, leading him to build systems that allow him to work just 20 hours a week while living intentionally. Through real stories, Peter challenges the myths of hustle culture, people-pleasing, and perfectionism—offering practical strategies for anyone ready to design a life of purpose, balance, and authentic freedom. This episode is a wake-up call for entrepreneurs and dreamers alike: success is not about working more—it’s about aligning your life first, and then letting business follow.   About the Guest:   Polish Peter Kolat is a transformational coach, author, and motivational speaker who empowers entrepreneurs and high achievers to break limiting beliefs and design a life by intention. Known for his dynamic energy and authenticity, Peter helps others overcome fear, perfectionism, and people-pleasing tendencies to create freedom-driven businesses. His personal journey—from an immigrant teenager to a self-made success—embodies resilience, reinvention, and the power of mindset.   Key Takeaways: Your past doesn’t define your path: Challenges and cultural shocks can become the training ground for resilience and growth. Ask better questions: Shifting from “Why me?” to “How is this happening for me?” changes your mindset and your results. Vision before business: Write a detailed life vision before building your business—let your business serve your life, not the other way around. Break the myth of perfectionism: Delegation and imperfection are key to freedom; let go of the belief that you must do everything yourself. Recognize people-pleasing: Learn to say no gracefully by aligning your choices with your vision, not external approval. Work-life integration: Design your calendar around your priorities—health, relationships, spirituality—before adding business commitments. Freedom is built, not found: You can create a 20-hour workweek model through systems, clarity, and mindset alignment.   Connect with the Guest:   Website: https://polishpeter.com/Instagram: @authenticselfrebirth/LinkedIn: Peter Kolat   Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?   DM on PM - Send me a message on PodMatchDM Me Here:https://www.podmatch.com/hostdetailpreview/avik Disclaimer:   This video is for educational and informational purposes only.

On Inner Light, we cut through the noise around “mindset hacks” and get practical. Certified Positive Psychology Coach Kimberly Worrell breaks down PERMAH (Positivity, Engagement/Flow, Relationships, Meaning, Accomplishment, Health) and shows how simple frameworks—the Wheel of Life and Hope Theory—help teen girls and young women move from burnout to better habits, accountability, and real resilience. We talk sleep, movement, nutrition, self-care, and why adult encouragement doubles a young person’s belief in their future. If you want grounded, science-backed steps to feel and function better, this one’s direct, useful, and easy to act on.   About the guest  : Kimberly Worrell is a certified Positive Psychology coach focused on teen girls and young women. She blends life-coaching fundamentals with the six pillars of positive psychology to build strengths, clarify goals, and create accountability rooted in daily habits.   Key takeaways: PERMAH made simple: Positivity, Engagement (flow), Relationships, Meaning, Accomplishment, Health—use it to audit life and choose one pillar to improve this week. Start with Health: Sleep, nutrition, movement, and self-care form a basic quadrant; fixing the weakest box often unlocks momentum in everything else. Engagement/Flow matters: Identify one activity that makes you lose track of time (gardening, Pilates, a walk with a friend) and schedule it; consistency beats intensity. Wheel of Life for clarity: Rate current satisfaction across school/work, family, friends, hobbies, love life, sports, and “future.” Tackle the lowest-scoring slice first. Hope Theory in action: Pick one meaningful goal, list 2–3 steps, pre-plan obstacles, and name a support person for accountability (coach, parent, roommate, friend). Gen Z needs real support: Having an invested adult more than doubles a teen’s belief in a great future; encouragement is not optional—it's causal. Self-care is not décor: Treat it as a practice (walks, reading, skin-care routines, podcasts you love) that stabilizes energy and mood. Micro-wins build Accomplishment: A high-protein breakfast, a 30-minute walk, or a consistent bedtime can shift energy and confidence fast.   Connect with the guest   Website : http://www.kbwcoaching.com/   Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?

On this episode of Inner Light, we unpack the Seven Laws of Life Mission with Audrey Rindlisbacher—author, speaker, and founder of The Mission-Driven Mom Academy. Audrey explains how everyday people can move from good intentions to mission-driven action using four foundational laws (Love God, Love Yourself, Love Truth, Love Humanity) and three leadership laws (Hear the Call, Courageously Execute, Repeat). We cover self-mastery, objective principles, servant leadership, patience in a fast world, and practical steps to “hear the call” without chasing shortcuts. This conversation is direct, applicable, and built for listeners who want clarity, discipline, and momentum in their life’s work   About the guest  :   Audrey Rindlisbacher is the founder of The Mission-Driven Mom Academy and author of The Mission Driven Life. Drawing on biographies of figures like the Ten Boom family, C.S. Lewis, Mother Teresa, Gandhi, and Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., she distills timeless principles into a clear framework for living and leading with purpose.   Key takeaways: Mission vs. purpose: Purpose is self-assigned; mission is assigned—and comes with stewardship, resources, and responsibility. Four foundations: Love God (align to objective truth), Love Yourself (self-mastery, talent discovery), Love Truth (grounding life in universal principles), Love Humanity (servant leadership without self-neglect). Leadership laws: 5) Hear the Call, 6) Courageously Execute, 7) Do it again—discipline and repetition build impact. Self-mastery precedes service: It’s hard to serve others sustainably if you ignore your own needs; self-respect and boundaries increase capacity. Hear the call by doing the work: Preparation, experimentation, prayer/meditation, and patience—illustrated by Albert Schweitzer’s delayed yet decisive pivot to medicine. Confidence with humility: Great leaders act boldly while seeing themselves as equals; they invite others to rise with them. Non-violent action as love in practice: Gandhi and MLK Jr. modeled principled, trained, non-retaliatory leadership. Modern obstacle: Impatience in a fast, convenience-driven culture; slow preparation still wins.   How to connect with Audrey   Website: The Mission Driven Mom — free audio of the first three chapters of The Mission Driven Life available via the homepage opt-in Book: The Mission Driven Life by Audrey Rindlisbacher Academy: Mission Driven Mom Academy (program for women living the Seven Laws)   Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?

What if your body isn’t the enemy—but the messenger? In this episode of Inner Light, brain-injury survivor and mind-body practitioner Danielle Matthews breaks down the Energetic Diffusion Technique—a practical, somatic method to locate stored tension, breathe with sensation, and allow suppressed emotions to move through. We cover why “numbing or rationalizing” stalls healing, how energy blocks show up as physical tightness, and why reframing discomfort as information can accelerate recovery. Clear, direct, and applicable—this is healing at the root, not symptom-management.   About the Guest:Danielle Matthews is a brain injury survivor and practitioner who blends ancient wisdom with modern science to help people address physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual blocks. Her work centers on guiding clients to safely feel and release stored energy so the system can restore balance.   Key Takeaways: • Energetic Diffusion = guided awareness of body sensation + relaxed breathing to let stored emotion move, rather than suppress or explode.• Unprocessed intense events can “freeze” as energetic knots that later present as chronic tension or discomfort.• Thinking about emotions isn’t the same as digesting them; the work happens in the body, not the mind.• Common detours—numbing, over-rationalizing, or blaming—delay release and keep energy stuck.• Name what’s present (“sadness,” “fear,” “I don’t feel loved”): simple labeling often unlocks movement.• Physical signs of release can include shaking, heat, tingling, coughing, or a wave shifting location—brief and transient.• Reframe pain as a messenger: ask, “What do you need me to hear?” to access intuitive guidance.• Skilled facilitation helps you stay with sensation when the reflex is to shut down.• Emotional hygiene matters as much as nutrition; a “clean” diet won’t offset daily emotional overload.• Post-traumatic growth is real: suffering can catalyze purpose when we stop fighting sensation and start listening.  How to Connect with the Guest: YouTube: Heal with Danielle Website: brainbodyself.com 1:1 guidance available via her site.

On Inner Light, certified clinical hypnotherapist and medical hypnosis specialist Craig Meriwether breaks down how clinical hypnosis and the spiritual track—past-life regression, soul memory, and life-between-lives work—can coexist without hype. From trauma release and pain management to research-informed methods (Weiss, Newton, Cannon), Craig explains how sessions prioritize healing and insight over belief, why many clients arrive after years of talk therapy, and how virtual sessions keep the work client-led and safe. We also unpack healthy skepticism, the “metaphor vs. memory” debate, and why intention—not dogma—drives results. SEO: hypnotherapy, past life regression, medical hypnosis, trauma healing, spiritual growth, subconscious mind, Inner Light podcast, Craig Meriwether. About the guest   Craig Meriwether is a certified clinical hypnotherapist, medical hypnosis specialist, and founder of Arizona Integrative Hypnotherapy. He blends evidence-informed clinical practice with spiritual modalities like past-life regression and life-between-lives work. Author of Past Lives Guidebook. Key takeaways: Hypnosis is client-led: the facilitator guides; the client’s subconscious drives the experience and integration. Solid foundation matters: Craig trained ~500 hours at the Hypnotherapy Academy of America—clinical first (trauma, anxiety, habits), then medical hypnosis, then regression work. Virtual sessions work well because comfort and safety at home deepen relaxation and recall. Curiosity vs. healing: many arrive intrigued by past lives; many also come after years of therapy seeking practical relief from anxiety, fear, or persistent patterns. On skepticism: treat past-life content as useful data—authentic memory for some, symbolic healing narrative for others; either way, focus on outcomes. Research anchors the work (e.g., case studies and large-N session patterns reported by Weiss/Newton/Cannon) while avoiding absolute claims. Intention over ideology: set goals (relief, clarity, purpose) and let the process surface what’s needed. Ethics: avoid deterministic “diagnoses” from regressions; integrate insights with grounded life choices and, where relevant, licensed care. Medical scope: hypnosis may support pain, stress, and coping; it is not a cure and should complement—not replace—medical treatment. Integration practices: journaling, reflection, and gentle follow-ups help translate session insights into daily behavior change.   How to connect with the guest   https://sacredmysteryhypnotherapy.com/ Book: Past Lives Guidebook Instagram| LinkedIn| YouTube   Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?

On Inner Light, host Aanya speaks with Dan Parr, publisher and narrator of the Easy-to-Understand Bible—a contemporary rewording and audio narration designed to remove language barriers without losing scriptural intent. Dan explains how a Facebook reading of Luke became a four-year journey through the entire Bible, why he cross-checked multiple translations and commentaries verse-by-verse, and how narration deepened his spiritual life. We also discuss accessibility vs. accuracy, inviting new readers through clear language, and Dan’s personal origin story that shaped his sense of calling.     About the guest:   Dan Parr is a voice actor, publisher, and narrator of the Easy-to-Understand Bible—a modern-language rewording aimed at clarity for first-time and returning readers. What began with Luke and Acts expanded into a complete Bible narration available on major audiobook platforms.     Key takeaways:   The Easy-to-Understand Bible began as a single Luke reading and grew—book by book—into a complete, four-year project. Dan used public-domain baselines and reworded verse-by-verse, checking multiple translations and commentaries to preserve author intent. Clarity isn’t compromise: simplifying phrasing, defining terms in-line (e.g., “cubit ≈ 18 inches”), and using today’s cadence can widen entry without diluting meaning. Narration shaped Dan’s faith: working passage-by-passage fostered a sense of collaboration with God and a deeper grasp of themes like persistent divine pursuit. Paul’s letters require slow reading; rephrasing invites reflection rather than rushing, which matches their dense theological design. Accessibility helps seekers who might abandon archaic language; those doing deep study can still pair this with a study Bible. Personal calling: Dan’s birth story and later return to church informed a conviction that everyone has purpose, discovered through steady engagement with Scripture. Practical tip: start with 5 minutes daily in an approachable translation; let consistency build understanding and peace over time.   Connect with the guest   Audible: Search “Dan Parr” for the Easy-to-Understand Read Bible (full Bible, daily plans, chronological options, individual books).

In this episode of Inner Light, host Aanya speaks with Andrew Drasen, author of A Vision of Hope. Andrew shares how recovery is not the finish line but the starting point for a life of clarity, resilience, and purpose. Drawing from his own journey through addiction, trauma, and loss, Andrew explains why he believes everyone has something to recover from—whether it’s grief, lost dreams, or childhood wounds. He also introduces his 90-day program designed to help people move beyond survival, identify meaningful goals, and create a legacy that matters. This conversation reframes recovery as universal and challenges the stigma that often surrounds it. It’s not about labels—it’s about healing, finding direction, and choosing to live on purpose. About the Guest  : Andrew Drasen is the author of A Vision of Hope, a memoir and framework that blends personal experience with practical tools for growth. Through his writing and 90-day recovery program, he helps people shift from pain and stagnation into resilience, clarity, and intentional living. Andrew works with re-entry groups, correctional systems, and community members to create spaces where healing is possible and purpose can take root. Key Takeaways  : Recovery is not limited to addiction—it’s about healing from any form of loss, trauma, or life misalignment. Reframing recovery reduces stigma and allows people to seek help without shame. Inner calm and clarity are natural drivers of resilience and purposeful living. Clarity is not a one-time achievement; it’s an ongoing practice of reflection and recalibration. Andrew’s 90-day program combines reflection, goal-setting, and legacy-building for long-term transformation. Pain shapes us, but we decide whether it breaks us or fuels growth. Living on purpose begins with identifying what no longer serves you and making intentional choices toward fulfillment. Recovery is non-linear; setbacks happen, but holding onto your vision keeps you moving forward.   Connect with the Guest  : Website: https://avisionofhopebook.com/ Book: A Vision of Hope (releasing soon), preorder now from the website or buy any print edition on 2nd December 2025   Instagram | LinkedIn Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?   DM on PodMatch – Send me a message here:DM Me Here Disclaimer   This podcast is for educational and informational purposes only.

On this episode of Inner Light, host Aanya sits down with Tina Coleman, author of the upcoming book 50 Fabulous and Fuckable. Tina is unapologetic about redefining midlife as a stage of possibility, courage, and reinvention. From losing 90 pounds and embracing sobriety to discovering freedom through solo travel and intentional living, Tina’s journey challenges outdated narratives of women at 50. She shares how EFT tapping, meditation, and mindset shifts can help women move beyond fear, reclaim their light, and step into abundance. This conversation is a permission slip for every woman who feels stuck, invisible, or “too old” to begin again. Reinvention doesn’t just happen—it’s chosen. About the Guest  : Tina Coleman is a transformational voice for women at midlife. After her career as a massage therapist ended abruptly, she reinvented her life through travel, wellness practices, and radical mindset shifts. Her upcoming book, 50 Fabulous and Fuckable, isn’t just a provocative title—it’s a movement to empower women to thrive beyond 50 without apology. Key Takeaways:   Midlife can be a threshold, not a dead end—reinvention is always possible. Solo travel opens identity and freedom by pushing us into the unknown. Losing 90 pounds and choosing sobriety showed Tina that change begins with a single choice. EFT (tapping), meditation, and yoga are practical tools for calming the nervous system and shifting energy. Overwhelm can be reduced with simple practices like box breathing and journaling. Language matters—reclaiming words like “fuckable” flips the narrative around aging. Women at 50 don’t need permission—they can choose boldly and unapologetically. Transformation isn’t instant; small daily choices create big life shifts over time. Midlife is a time to embody wisdom, release outdated roles, and live authentically. If Tina can reinvent herself, every woman has the power to do the same.

In this episode of Inner Light, host Aanya sits down with Matthew Strunk—an entrepreneur turned spiritual guide—whose story takes us from building multi-million-dollar companies to discovering that true fulfillment doesn’t come from external success, but from alignment within. Matthew introduces the Purpose Paradox, showing why chasing conventional goals leaves us empty, and explains how fear can act as both a powerful driver and a dangerous toxin. He also shares his framework, the Hidden Path, which helps people move from being “asleep” to truly “awake.” If you’ve ever felt caught in the noise of modern life, this conversation is a map toward clarity, alignment, and purpose. About the Guest  : Matthew Strunk is a former entrepreneur who sold multiple companies before realizing achievement without alignment left him unfulfilled. Today, he guides people through spiritual frameworks like the Purpose Paradox, Fear as Fuel, and the Hidden Path, helping them find clarity, realign their lives with truth, and live from love instead of fear. Key Takeaways  : Success without alignment leads to emptiness; clarity of purpose brings lasting fulfillment. Fear can fuel achievement, but it carries hidden costs like burnout and disconnection. Shifting from fear to love creates sustainable energy and deeper joy. The Hidden Path framework outlines three states of being: asleep, in-between, and awake. Creating space through sleep, nutrition, movement, and digital detox is essential for finding inner truth. Awakening comes with clarity, awareness, and the ability to answer “Who am I?” and “Why am I here?” Small daily choices—leading from fear or love—become a compass for a more conscious life.

This conversation challenges the pressure of constant productivity, explores how to recognize hidden warning signs of burnout, and offers small yet life-changing daily practices to help us pause, listen, and realign with who we truly are. About the Guest  : Mairin Moore Cane is a seasoned business leader turned speaker, author, and coach.

Mairin’s framework: Rooted, Realigning, Rising helps people ground themselves, reassess daily intentions, and grow with authenticity. Warning signs of burnout often show up years before a breakdown—listen to your body’s small signals before they become crises. Identity is more than productivity: learning to ask daily, “Who am I beyond my business or achievements?” A small daily win and gratitude practice can shift perspective and rebuild resilience. Forgiveness and grace allow us to release perfectionism and embrace healing as a journey, not a destination. Resilience is often shaped more through setbacks than success—struggles create relatability and shared growth. The finish line isn’t achievement, but how we use our lives and gifts to make an impact.

In this episode of Inner Light, host Aanya speaks with Magic Barclay, trauma-informed practitioner and functional health coach, about the limbic system’s role in chronic illness. Magic shares her personal journey of facing cancer, divorce, and emotional upheaval, and how recognizing the link between emotions, trauma, and physical health reshaped her healing. Together, they explore why mainstream medicine often separates mind and body, the impact of generational trauma, and practical steps to reset the body’s stress patterns. This conversation reveals how healing requires more than managing symptoms—it begins with addressing the root causes stored in the mind-body connection. About the Guest:   Magic Barclay is the lead practitioner at Wholistic Natural Health Australia, specializing in root cause analysis and functional health. After surviving life-threatening illness, she dedicated her career to guiding others toward recovery through science-based tools, emotional wisdom, and holistic approaches. Key Takeaways  : The limbic system stores emotions, memories, and trauma, influencing chronic illness through psycho-neuro-endo-immunology (PNEI). Unprocessed emotions intensify conditions like fibromyalgia and cancer by reinforcing negative bodily responses. Childhood conditioning often teaches people to suppress emotions, creating disconnection from the body’s signals. Modern medicine frequently treats symptoms but overlooks the emotional and root causes of illness. Past and intergenerational trauma are carried in cellular memory and shape physical and emotional health. Addressing the limbic system helps accelerate healing by reducing pain and shortening recovery time. Simple tools like “I am” affirmations (e.g., I am safe, I am resilient) can reset stress responses and create safety in the body. Healing requires becoming the captain of your own ship—reclaiming accountability instead of surrendering health to external authority. The first step tonight: know that illness is not your fault, but you can take control of how you respond and begin to heal.   Connect with the Guest:   Website: https://www.wholisticnaturalhealth.com.au/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/wholisticnaturalhealth/ Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?
