    218. Grief is a Guide: Regulation First, Everything Else Second with Cheyenne Hawks
    May 14 2026
    What starts as a conversation about meal plans quickly becomes something much deeper — a story about grief, betrayal, the wisdom stored in the body, and what it actually means to heal from the ground up. In this episode, Mechelle sits down with Cheyenne Hawks, a gifted wellness coach who built her practice from handwritten macro spreadsheets and a yoga mat in Laguna Beach into a full coaching business rooted in the belief that food is never just about food. They talk about growing up in the era of Slim-Fast and calorie obsession, the client whose 100-pound transformation revealed everything about where the real work lives, and the business partnership that ended without a conversation — and why that loss, as painful as it was, sent her back to herself. Together, they explore what nervous system regulation actually feels like in the body, why we can't do deep healing from a dysregulated place, and how grief — layered and relentless — can either close us down or crack us wide open. This one is tender, honest, and full of the kind of hard-won wisdom that only comes from living it.

    217. Nobody Told Me: What I Learned About My Body During Menopause
    May 7 2026
    When Mechelle started searching for answers about menopause, she found frustration — because her story didn't fit the standard narrative. No hot flashes. An ablation in her thirties that complicated the timeline. Months of searching before she found care that actually helped. What the clinic found changed everything: Hashimoto's, insulin resistance, and hormones that had nearly disappeared. But the most profound part of this journey came when Mechelle began to recognize her own diagnosis in her mother's health history — and understood, with grief and clarity, that the chronic conditions that led to her mother's death may have been treatable. This episode is personal, educational, and a quiet act of advocacy for every woman whose body has been signaling for help that the medical system didn't hear.

    216. Mechelle’s Story — When Faith Changes and Love Gets Tested
    Apr 23 2026
    In this deeply personal episode, Mechelle opens her heart and shares the story of a profound rupture in her marriage — what it was like when her spouse began experiencing a faith crisis, and how everything she thought was solid suddenly felt uncertain. She talks candidly about the grief of losing shared beliefs, the fear that comes with not knowing what’s next, and the quiet loneliness that can exist even inside a committed relationship. Mechelle reflects on the hardest moments, the emotional whiplash, and the internal battles between staying true to herself while trying to hold space for someone she loves. If you’ve ever walked through a season where love and belief no longer aligned — or if you’re navigating change inside your closest relationships — this episode offers honesty, tenderness, and hope. Sometimes rupture isn’t the end of the story. Sometimes it’s where deeper truth begins. Still Face Experiment Explore The Wholeness Library App FREE!

    215. The Beautiful Before
    Apr 21 2026
    Mechelle and her husband were born on the same day, in the same hospital, just hours apart. Their story started with fate, late-night drives, and a kind of young love that felt undeniable. They built a life the way we were taught to — marriage, faith, four kids, leadership callings, dream homes, vacations, and a sense that they had “made it.” From the outside, everything looked solid. Blessed. Certain. This episode is about the beautiful before — before the cracks showed, before the questions began, before everything they thought was unshakable started to tremble. They share the sweetness of how they met, the magic of the early years, and the identity built around doing everything right. But underneath the nostalgia is something quieter: the pressure to be perfect, the roles inherited, and the beliefs they didn’t know were building their marriage. Because sometimes the rupture doesn’t begin with conflict. Sometimes it begins inside something that once felt beautiful. Explore The Wholeness Library App FREE!

    214. Emotions Don't Expire: The Air Conditioner, the Severed Finger, and the Voice in the Dark
    Apr 9 2026
    Before Monte knew what to call it, he had three childhood memories that lived in his body without feelings attached to them. Strange, vivid, unforgettable — and completely emotionless. For forty years those memories just... sat there. No emotion. No context. Just stories. Then terror showed up in a bathroom, and everything changed. In this episode, Monte and Mechelle unpack what happens when emotions get locked away before you have the language to name them — and why they never actually leave. They break down attunement, the attachment styles that form when it's missing, and what it looks like to finally put the feeling with the memory. Emotions don't expire. They just wait.

    212. Patriarchy: The Air We’ve Been Breathing with Jackie Pack
    Mar 26 2026
    Many of the struggles women experience — self-doubt, over-functioning, fear of being “too much,” difficulty resting — don’t exist in a vacuum. In this conversation, we gently unpack patriarchy as a system that has shaped expectations, relationships, faith spaces, leadership, and family roles for generations. We talk about: The invisible rules we absorbed Why awareness isn’t the same as attack And how healing can happen for individuals and couples. This episode invites compassion — for ourselves, for men, and for the systems we’re all learning to navigate.

  • 211. Healing the Witch Wound with Linda Nevin

    211. Healing the Witch Wound with Linda Nevin
    Mar 19 2026
    For centuries, women who were intuitive, outspoken, healing-centered, or simply different were labeled dangerous. In this episode, we explore the concept of the “witch wound” — the inherited fear many women carry around being visible, powerful, intuitive, emotional, or “too much.” We talk about how this wound can show up today as: fear of speaking up shrinking in relationships people-pleasing discomfort with our own intuition anxiety around being judged This conversation is about understanding where that fear comes from — and gently healing it so we can return to wholeness.
