638. The New Earth Economy: Crypto Made Simple & the Future of Conscious Wealth Creation w/ Oto Gomes
In this episode, I’m joined by Oto Gomes, crypto investor, mentor, and founder of the Crypto Freedom Academy, for a conversation that goes far beyond charts, markets, and digital assets. Oto brings over a decade of crypto experience and another decade as an accountant, but what truly sets him apart is his heart-centered approach to wealth, sovereignty, and freedom.Together, we unpack why so many people feel disempowered around money, how our beliefs shape our financial reality, and why the future of prosperity depends less on chasing quick wins and more on understanding who we are at our core. Oto shares practical and grounded wisdom on navigating crypto safely, building true abundance, and creating a resilient inner foundation that can weather both bull and bear markets—externally and internally.We also explore the deeper emotional and spiritual layers of money. Oto breaks down how self-worth ties directly into financial behavior, why sovereignty is a non-negotiable in the new paradigm, and how interdependent communities can help us rewrite our relationship with wealth. His mission is clear: to empower people to reclaim their agency, operate from integrity, and create a prosperous life rooted in accountability and connection.If you're curious about crypto, seeking a more holistic approach to money, or wanting to align your financial path with personal freedom and purpose, this conversation offers grounded insights and expansive perspective.

637. Humility, Surrender, and Self-Honesty: Practical Tools for Ego Management w/ Luke & Alyson Storey
We’re back with a new listener AMA, and this one goes deep into the heart of what so many of you have been asking about lately: healing, forgiveness, energetic boundaries, and what it really means to stay aligned when life throws you lessons you never asked for. As always, it’s just me and my wife, Alyson Charles Storey, sitting down at home to explore your questions with honesty, humor, and a whole lot of spiritual perspective.In this conversation, we unpack what forgiveness actually looks like—especially when the other person never takes accountability. We talk about how to work with resentment, rumination, and intrusive thoughts without spiritually bypassing or numbing ourselves. You’ll hear us dive into the difference between emotional processing and feeding old mental loops, the role of humility in resolving conflict, and why “letting go” is often more about moment-to-moment surrender than a single breakthrough.We also get into questions around shamanic perspective, karmic lessons, and how to discern when an experience has alchemized into wisdom versus when it’s still asking for attention. Along the way, we touch on rituals, inner work, and the spiritual tools we each turn to—plus plenty of personal stories, laughter, and real-life marriage moments.Thank you to every listener who submitted a question. Your curiosity and vulnerability shape these episodes, and we’re grateful to walk this path with you. Keep the questions coming for the next AMA.

636. Language of the Heart: How to use HRV as a Compass for Nervous System Health w/ Salim Najjar
In this episode, I sit down with engineer-turned-nervous-system guide Salim Najjar for a deep exploration into nervous system sovereignty, HRV mastery, and the inner architecture of human consciousness. Salim brings a rare perspective, equal parts scientific, spiritual, and experiential, shaped by his own journey transforming his HRV from 32 to over 100 and developing his signature framework, The A.R.T. of the Heart.We get into everything from his life-altering 5-MeO Bufo experience to the powerful realizations that came through global travel, sacred sites, and studying with spiritual masters. Salim breaks down how attachment patterns, family wounds, and emotional imprints show up in the body, and how learning to read our physiological signals (rather than override them) creates the sovereignty most of us are unconsciously seeking.We also dive into the reframes and nervous system pathways that helped Salim unwind old programs, dissolve judgment, and shift into a state where stress becomes an ally rather than an adversary. If you’ve ever wondered how HRV actually reflects your inner state, why your body is the fastest route to clarity and alignment, or how to consciously choose the “timeline” you’re operating in, Salim brings illuminating and immediately applicable insights.For anyone navigating stress, burnout, emotional patterns, or the desire for deeper self-mastery, this conversation offers a grounded yet expansive roadmap back to your own innate wisdom. Salim’s message is simple but profound: your body is the guru, and learning to listen changes everything.

635. From Survival Mode to Sovereignty: Nervous System Tools for a Resilient Life w/ Irene Lyon
In this episode, I sit down with the brilliant Irene Lyon, MSc, an internationally respected nervous system expert whose work has helped nearly 25,000 people in more than 90 countries transform trauma at its roots. If you’ve ever wondered why certain patterns, pains, or emotional states seem to follow you through life no matter what you try, this conversation is going to hit home.Irene breaks down the real science of trauma and somatic healing in a way that’s refreshingly practical and deeply human. We explore the difference between what happens to us and what gets stored in us, and why the nervous system (not the mind) is the true home of unresolved stress. She shares how seemingly small experiences, from childhood injuries to subtle misattunements with caregivers, shape our lifelong patterns of safety, connection, resilience, and self-expression.We go deep into the subtle early-life imprints that create functional freeze, chronic pain, autoimmune tendencies, and emotional overwhelm, including why traditional talk therapy, meditation, or even spiritual practices often miss the foundational biology that must be restored first. Irene also opens up about her own journey from adrenaline-fueled athlete to somatic practitioner, and the radical personal healing that unfolded as she trained with pioneers like Dr. Moshé Feldenkrais, Peter Levine, and Kathy Kain.If you’ve been searching for a grounded, science-backed pathway to healing that honors both your biology and your soul, this episode is a powerful roadmap. Irene’s wisdom is equal parts compassionate, embodied, and transformative—you won’t see your nervous system the same way again.

634. Building Psyop Immunity for the Spiritual War: Toltec Dreaming Arts w/ Joel Schafer
In this mind-expanding conversation with personal empowerment mentor and shamanic dreaming arts teacher Joel Schafer, we dive deep into the Toltec wisdom that redefines what it means to awaken and reclaim our power in a world full of distraction and distortion. Joel shares how ancient shamanic practices, rooted in not doing, recapitulation, and dreaming arts, help us recover the energy and attention lost to modern chaos. We explore how slowing down time, grounding in nature, and dissolving self-importance open portals to heightened perception, intuitive awareness, and true freedom.Joel also sheds light on how unseen forces manipulate our attention through fear and drama, and how to become “unpalatable” to energetic harvesting by mastering presence and sovereignty. We unpack his experiences with cult dynamics, shadow teachers, and the seduction of power—lessons that reveal how even spiritual seekers can lose their way without self-honesty and humor.From lucid dreaming and parallel lives to the pitfalls of false enlightenment, Joel offers a grounded yet mystical roadmap for living impeccably—one rooted in trust, silence, and direct experience rather than ideology. If you’ve ever wondered how to truly unbind from the collective trance and remember who you are beneath the programming, this episode will leave you rethinking time, power, and the very nature of reality itself.DISCLAIMER: This podcast is for educational purposes only and not intended for diagnosing or treating illnesses.
