When naturopathic doctor Renata Taravski started having panic attacks despite a thriving practice, she knew something deeper was calling. In this raw conversation, she reveals how astrology found her at a pivotal moment and completely transformed her approach to healing.

From predicting the collective chaos of 2020-2024 through planetary transits to helping clients understand why supplements can't fix a soul-sucking job, Renata breaks down the three major midlife awakening transits that hit between ages 38-43, why we become addicted to our own suffering, and what it really takes to pivot when you have "more to lose." Her blend of medical training, cosmic wisdom, and unapologetic truth-telling offers a roadmap for anyone feeling stuck in their own matrix.

Essential listening for healers, seekers, and anyone sensing they've outgrown their current life but are terrified to let go.

Essential listening for anyone who intellectually knows what needs to change but keeps defaulting to familiar patterns.

You know what needs to change. You can feel it. But somehow you keep choosing the same responses, the same strategies, the same patterns—and then wonder why nothing shifts.

In this episode, Meghan gets to the heart of why "more of the same plus more of the same equals more of the same"—and what it actually takes to break free. Drawing from Dawson Church's neuroscience research in Mind to Matter and Dr. John Churchill's work on the imaginal realm, she reveals how our brains are wired for efficiency, not transformation. The good news? You have the power to interrupt old patterns and literally rewire your neural pathways toward new possibilities.

This isn't about willpower or waiting for circumstances to change. It's about understanding that you are the architect of your reality, and change begins the moment you consciously choose to do something different. Not tomorrow. Today.

What if your inability to change isn't a failure of willpower, but your heart's way of protecting you from something you're not ready to face? Ali Shapiro, creator of Truce with Food, shares how her journey from overworking addiction to radical life redesign began with a simple question: "Why does this make sense?"

In this raw conversation, Ali reveals how addressing her relationship with food became the gateway to confronting deeper questions about worth, identity, and what success actually means—and why healing often requires becoming a beginner all over again. From her journey through cancer, infertility, and postpartum menopause to finally redefining wealth as "freedom over my time," Ali demonstrates how the courage to slow down and listen to your body's wisdom can unlock transformations you never imagined possible.

Essential listening for anyone measuring busyness instead of impact, struggling to make changes they know they need, or ready to understand why their body might be wiser than their ambition.
