From Healthcare Professional to Holistic Healer: A Journey of Radical Authenticity

In this deeply moving and raw episode, multi-passionate entrepreneur and author Kimberly Rush courageously shares her extraordinary journey of transformation—from registered nurse and birth worker to energy healer and empowerment author. With unprecedented vulnerability, Kimberly opens up about her current reality: living in her car for over two years while battling Chronic Inflammatory Response Syndrome (CIRS) caused by mold poisoning.

You'll hear about:

• 🏥 Her 27-year career serving women in maternal-child health as an RN, IBCLC, childbirth educator, and doula
• 🔬 The shocking discovery of CIRS—a genetic condition affecting 25% of the population that prevents the body from clearing biotoxins
• 🚗 The difficult choice to live in her car as her only safe space after mold poisoning
• 💡 How she developed a "superpower"—the ability to detect unsafe environments through her heightened sensitivity
• 🧠 The connection between mold toxicity and conditions like MS, dementia, Alzheimer's, fibromyalgia, and Parkinson's
• ⚕️ Being gaslit by the medical system and advocating for yourself when providers dismiss your symptoms
• 🧬 The Richie Shoemaker protocol and how genetic expression can be changed through treatment
• 📖 Writing "Dare to be HER" during her darkest season and finding gratitude in the midst of crisis
• 💪 Living authentically while facing chronic illness, homelessness, and financial uncertainty

Kimberly's story powerfully demonstrates how perspective can transform even the most challenging circumstances. She shares practical insights about nervous system regulation, the importance of feeling safe in your body for healing, and how environmental toxins are affecting more people than we realize.

This episode is a masterclass in resilience, self-advocacy, and finding your voice even when the world tries to silence you. Kimberly's journey from healthcare provider to patient activist offers hope and practical wisdom for anyone facing chronic illness, housing insecurity, or the need to completely rebuild their life.

Welcome Back - "What Happens After"

Season 2 opens with Lisa V sharing what happened in the space between. With raw vulnerability, Lisa reveals her journey through ending a relationship that wasn't aligned - one that was soft, familiar, and safe until it stopped being honest.

In the ashes of burning through who she thought she was supposed to be, Lisa discovered her Soul Contract - a compass for what we no longer shrink for.

You'll hear about:

• Leaving love that couldn't expand beyond where they were
• The moment something cracked wide open in that space
• Her Soul Contract - a compass for what we no longer shrink for
• Standing on stage and eating fire to reclaim her voice
• Finding herself in the choice, not the loss
• Why Season 2 isn't about holding space - it's about igniting it

Lisa also shares her international magazine cover, upcoming book "Quieted Flames & Silent Sparks," and a collaboration featuring 111 women's voices. But most importantly - the show is evolving with more raw solo episodes alongside sacred guest conversations.

"You're not behind. You're returning."

This season is for those ready to rebuild on their own terms.

A Raw Reflection on Transformation

As Season 1 comes to an end, host Lisa V gets vulnerable about her own rabbit hole journey. In this intimate finale, she shares how literally eating fire became the moment everything shifted - from playing small to reclaiming her voice, from a loving relationship that needed to end to meeting herself again after years of hiding.

Lisa reflects on the "quiet detonation" of the first half of 2025 and what it means for the completely different Season 2 ahead.

"Remember, what broke you isn't the end of your story. It's where your reflection begins."
