What if you could stop outsourcing your healing and finally learn to calm your own mind? In this episode, host Lisa Urbanski talks with Phyllis Coletta, author of How to Be a Good Dog, about what real healing looks like in everyday life. Through powerful stories of marriage, cancer, grief, and caregiving, Phyllis explains how meditation, stillness, and self-guided practice can help you move from chaos to calm—without pretending your trauma isn’t real. In this episode, you’ll learn how to: 🧠 Understand what self-guided healing is and why guided meditations aren’t enough on their own 🧘‍♀️ Use meditation, stillness, and awareness to regulate emotions instead of numbing out 🚨 Recognize when trauma and anxiety need professional support (and why that’s not a failure) 🌊 Face long-standing fears—like illness, loss, and being alone—without getting swallowed by them  🍃 Shift from “woundiness” to wisdom and build a calm, reliable inner presence 🐕 See how energy, mindset, and calm leadership affect not just people, but animals and relationships 🌍 Make small daily choices that support your nervous system, resilience, and impact on the world Instead of another quick fix, this is a gentle, honest roadmap to building an “alpha mind” that leads with wisdom instead of reactivity… even when life feels overwhelming.

If you feel empty, checked out, or like you’re floating through life on autopilot, you might be stuck in “the void.” In this episode, host Lisa Urbanski talks with Dr. Evette Rose, holistic counselor, trauma recovery expert, and author of Metaphysical Anatomy, about how women 30+ can stop numbing with vaping, smoking, and overthinking—and start actually feeling safe inside their own bodies again. You’ll learn: ✨ What “the void” really is and why you feel so emotionally numb ✨ How vaping, smoking, scrolling, and overworking keep you stuck in survival mode ✨ Why listening to your body matters more than obsessing over every thought ✨ How inherited trauma and sensitivity can make you feel “too much” or “not enough” ✨ Simple daily practices—journaling, sound, walking meditation—to move through discomfort instead of running from it

If you feel anxious, “off,” or stuck in survival mode—while also dealing with bloating, fatigue, or gut issues—this episode will help you understand what’s really going on underneath the surface and what you can start doing right now to support healing. You’ll learn how to: - See your gut as your “third brain” and why the microbiome affects mood, sleep, and energy - Understand parasites, heavy metals, and pH imbalances—and how they can fuel anxiety and depression - Use tools like Viome testing, plant medicine, and peptides (LL37, BPC-157) more intentionally - Recognize emotional eating and food choices that quietly disrupt your gut and your peace - Support healing with practices like breathwork, Reiki, astrology, and frequency-based tech - Connect gut health to spiritual alignment so you feel more grounded, intuitive, and like yourself again This conversation is for anyone who’s tired of feeling broken and wants a clearer, kinder roadmap for healing from the inside out.
