In the following conversation I chat with Aya Wild — Explorer of the unconscious, guiding others home through radical gentleness.Raised in an isolated religious cult, Aya learned early what it meant to be silenced and cut off from her own body. After escaping, she spent the next decade diving into trauma, bodywork, and plant medicine to learn how to hold what others turn away from. She now walks with those whose experiences fall beyond the limits of mainstream healing, people who’ve been shut down, labelled, or offered only superficial explanations for their pain. Aya helps them clarify their trauma, resource their bodies, and find safety in what was once unbearable.
With a B.A. in Integrative Therapies for Trauma from Mount Holyoke College, along with training in Complex Trauma, Rosen Method Bodywork, Cranial Sacral Therapy, and Chi Gong/Tai Chi, Aya brings both lived experience and embodied skill to every person she walks beside. Aya’s links:

Waking up is not a walk in the park, it’s the most soul stretching, brain breaking, heart tearing adventure of a lifetime. I highly recommend it if you like missions that shatter your illusions about everything and force you to rebuild yourself and your life from the ground up. My guest today has been through that process. Benny Wills, is an actor, poet, and sketch comedian turned entrepreneur, helping truth-seekers escape the system and build online businesses that align with their values. After years of waking people up with red-pill poetry and conspiracy comedy, he realized that awareness alone won’t pay the bills. You need a game plan. Now, through his Sovereign Secrets community and Escape the System program, he helps people shift from what’s wrong to what’s possible, monetize their awakening, and create businesses that actually solve problems. He’s spoken on stages worldwide, survived Hollywood without selling his soul, and manages to make a living without ever tucking in his shirt. I thoroughly enjoyed this conversation as I hope you do.

In this episode I chat with Hayley Lowe a visionary artist, intuitive healer, and soul guide from New Zealand whose bird-filled canvases and energy work offer more than beauty—they offer transformation.
Hayley’s journey into the spiritual and creative realms didn’t start in a meditation circle. It began after the birth of her second child, when postnatal depression cracked open the carefully constructed life she once led as the head of a successful branding agency. What followed was an unplanned awakening—messy, raw, and deeply profound. Through intuition, synchronicity, and a string of spiritual nudges she couldn’t ignore, Hayley uncovered her natural gifts as a clairvoyant, clairsentient, and claircognisant.
Since then, she’s spent over a decade guiding others through emotional healing, soul remembering, and energetic transformation, often working with ancestral lines and subtle realms beyond the veil.
More recently, Hayley has begun weaving her intuitive gifts back into her art. Her paintings—often featuring birds as messengers of freedom, guidance, and soul connection—are quickly becoming portals of their own: energetic sanctuaries that invite resonance, reflection, and renewal. They are absolutely beautiful. Hayley is a mental projector in Human Design and her soul has the gift of a deep understandings of pattern, something she weaves through her work as a healer and artist. We also have a fascinating little dive into birth patterns and how that can play out in your life. I hope you enjoy the chat. Hayley’s Links: Hayley’s Art WebsiteHayley’s Healing work & links

A shorter solo episode with me, your host to talk about some of the things I've learned through the experiences of my first year of podcasting. I discuss three themes in the interviews I've conducted this year and how they relate to my own life as well as where we are headed as group of souls who are connecting consciously and doing the 'inner work' of growth and development.
A special thank you to all of my listeners, I really appreciate you!
