Biohacking Can't Fix This: Doing the Inner Hard Work for Peace, Health & Longevity

What if the missing link in your wellness routine isn’t another supplement or protocol, but the way you listen to your inner world? In this episode, I unpack doing the inner work with practical, honest tools that help midlife feel grounded, creative, and genuinely healthy - far beyond hacks, quick fixes, and trends.

I share the turning points that moved me from chasing answers outside to building strength inside, and why presence beats perfection every time. Learn simple, transformative anchors:

30 minutes walking in nature without headphones
“I feel / I choose” prompts to rewire negative beliefs
Gratitude walks that calm a reactive nervous system
From there, I explore:

Stream-of-consciousness journaling to hear your higher self
Forgiveness work to release shame
Trauma-informed approaches like EMDR for when thoughts alone won’t release emotional charge
Energy practices—sound, breath, subtle clearing—without outsourcing your power
Creative rituals like memory jars, seasonal practices, dance, storytelling, and writing that awaken the soul
Relationships get a deep, nuanced look, too. I discuss boundaries, renegotiating sacred contracts, and how dynamics shift when you change your side of the pattern.

Finally, I share daily micro-practices, ways to read symbols in nature, and a careful approach to retreats and plant medicine and why your higher self should set the pace.

Whether you’re interested in inner work, holistic wellness, emotional healing, mindset transformation, or longevity practices, this episode gives practical, actionable tools to help you feel alive, present, and deeply aligned.
