Ep 290Ep 290 - Dr. Richard Massey | Family Biology & the Love Stories Behind Our Suffering

E

Dr. Richard Massey spent decades inside the medical system — from USAF medic to pharmacy school to anesthesiology — before a personal betrayal by his own education cracked the paradigm wide open. In this deeply moving conversation, Richard introduces us to what he calls family biology: the idea that our nervous systems carry inherited loyalty programs from the womb, designed to absorb our ancestors’ suffering as an act of love — and that what we call illness is often that love story facing backwards. We explore the intelligence of the heart, the trilogy of conception, how birth events silently script our relationship to work and intimacy, and why the body is never broken — only in repair. Richard walks us through real cases where autoimmune conditions, atrial fibrillation, and even terminal diagnoses dissolved once the ancestral connection was restored. If you’ve ever sensed that healing goes deeper than the body and further back than your own lifetime, this conversation will show you how deep the roots actually go.Dr. Richard Massey is a former anesthesiologist, pharmacist, and USAF medic who left conventional medicine to pursue integrative and ancestral healing. Based in Austin, Texas, he works with blood and matrix fluid microscopy, heart coherence monitoring, family constellations, and what he calls family biology — a blend of German New Medicine, Recall Healing, and ancestral medicine.(00:00) Episode Teaser(00:30) Opening Conversation(02:15) Episode Start(03:52) License Revoked Turning Point(06:00) The Body is Always Healing(08:35) Nervous System Original Programming(12:32) Reprogramming Methods(16:24) Medical Awakening Story(26:18) Birth Imprints and Labor(33:15) Conception Trilogy Numbers(45:04) Ancestral Heart Intelligence(55:26) Five Levels of Healing(01:02:35) Rebirthing and Mirror Imprint(01:05:53) Autoimmune as Inner Conflict(01:08:36) Recall Healing Breakthrough(01:15:49) Great Dane Experiment - Territory and Heart Attacks(01:27:58) Repair Phase Survival Tools(01:32:52) Blood Patterns and Heart PracticeGuest Linkshttps://www.instagram.com/docmassey1949/Connect with UsStart the free 7-Day Self-Esteem ResetJoin our free Telegram communityJoin our membership Friends of the TruthAccess all our links

Ep 289Ep 289 - Will Rezin | Somatics, Trauma & the Body as Living Process

E

In this grounded and deeply informed conversation, Will traces the history of the somatic field — from Thomas Hanna’s coining of the term through the human potential movement at Esalen to Peter Levine’s groundbreaking work in stress physiology — and makes a compelling case for why the body is not a machine to be programmed, but a living process to be inhabited. We explore why catharsis without capacity is dangerous, why the coaching industry is operating with an incomplete map, and why the fawn response makes “only go as far as your body says” almost useless in group settings. Will also shares his own journey — from surviving group home trauma as a teenager to declaring a mission to end trauma at a species level. If you’ve ever sensed that the healing world is missing something fundamental, this conversation will show you what it is.Will Rezin is a Somatic Experiencing practitioner and the founder of Trauma and Somatics, a global training organization that has trained over 500 practitioners across 28 countries in the art and science of trauma recovery.Time Stamps(00:00) Plant Medicine Reality Check(00:44) DNA Surprise(03:14) Meet Will Rezin(09:06) Will’s Origin Story(11:53) Trauma and Mythic Meaning(25:04) What Somatics Really Means(34:42) We Are Bodied(41:21) The Great Paradox(50:46) Psycho Cybernetics and Belief(59:51) Somatic Rigidity and Aging(01:02:50) Stress Capacity and Vitality(01:09:14) Trauma Informed Facilitation(01:13:09) Coaching Industry Gaps(01:19:35) Resilience Over Protection(01:33:18) Knowledge Versus Embodiment(01:39:21) Mission to End TraumaGuest Linkshttps://www.traumaandsomatics.com/https://www.instagram.com/traumaandsomatics/https://www.instagram.com/willrezin/Free meditation and journal from WillConnect with UsTake the Real AF Test NowJoin our free Telegram communityJoin our membership Friends of the TruthAccess all our links

Ep 288Ep 288 - Barlas Günay | Self-Reparenting & The Cost of Avoiding Truth

E

Barlas Günay is a registered psychologist who has spent 13 years guiding thousands through childhood trauma recovery and what he calls self-reparenting — the deliberate practice of giving yourself what your parents couldn't. His thesis is: you cannot heal while still participating in "normal." The processed food, the numbing, the people-pleasing, the job that's slowly killing you — these aren't separate from the psychological suffering, they are the suffering. Real change asks more of you. Authenticity, nervous system regulation, and the willingness to be the only sane person in the room.Time Stamps (00:00) Self Love Reality Check (00:35) Opening Conversation (05:51) Episode Start (06:56) Barlas’ Origin Story (10:06) What Self Reparenting Means (21:28) Quitting Alcohol For Good (23:05) Defining The Self (25:26) Ego Confusion Explained (32:37) Healing Trap And Avoidance (41:55) Healing through Rejecting Norms (48:07) Military Service Grad School Drive (52:02) Self Hatred and Numbing (56:13) Calling Out with Care (59:17) Avoiding Truth Costs (01:02:17) Reparenting and Boundaries (01:06:37) Somatic Trauma Work (01:11:47) Roleplay and Visualization (01:18:01) Books RecommendationsGuest Linkhttps://www.instagram.com/acceptandact/ https://www.patreon.com/cw/acceptandact Connect with UsJoin our membership Friends of the TruthRise Above The Herd Take the Real AF Test NowDiscover Your Truth Seeker ArchetypeWatch all our episodesConnect with us on TelegramFollow us on InstagramAccess all our links

Ep 287Ep 287 - Kenneth Soares | Subconscious Programming & the Courage to Face Reality

E

In this episode we sit down with Kenneth Soares, hypnotherapist, NLP trainer, and advanced EFT practitioner whose guided meditations and affirmations have reached over 100 million plays worldwide. Kenneth shares deep insights into how the subconscious mind shapes our beliefs, behaviors, and identity, and why real transformation requires the courage to face reality rather than avoid it. We explore the pitfalls of spiritual bypassing, the dangers of getting lost in endless “rabbit holes,” and how discernment, self-responsibility, and inner work form the foundation of authentic growth. Kenneth also shares powerful perspectives on parenting in the modern world and how to consciously support the psychological development of our children in an age of constant conditioning.Time Stamps(00:00) Teaser(00:27) Opening Conversation(10:36) Meet Kenneth Soares(12:35) Childhood Criticism and Freedom(14:10) Breakup and Finding Self(17:00) Dissatisfaction and Hypnotherapy Leap(18:41) Fatherhood Promise and First Course(26:07) Subconscious Mind Explained(30:29) Rabbit Holes and Family Balance(43:27) Doom Loop and Perception Filters(48:16) New Age Spirituality Critique(52:11) Intuition vs Avoidance / Self Esteem Needs Reality(01:01:39) Parenting the Subconscious(01:25:11) High Standards High Support(01:30:12) Healthy Conflict Repair(01:39:51) EFT and Self Tools(01:46:19) Master Your Emotions(01:52:53) Hypnotherapy Past Life StoryGuest Linkhttps://kennethsoares.earth/ https://www.instagram.com/kennethsoares.livingfully/ https://www.youtube.com/KennethSoaresUniverse Connect with UsJoin our membership Friends of the TruthRise Above The Herd Take the Real AF Test NowDiscover Your Truth Seeker ArchetypeWatch all our episodesConnect with us on TelegramFollow us on InstagramAccess all our links

Ep 286Ep 286 - Mark Jones | How to Survive the Modern World with Your Soul Intact

E

In a world engineered to hijack your attention, erode your trust, and sedate your spirit, how do you stay whole? In this profound and wide-ranging conversation, Mark Jones returns to explore what it truly means to survive the modern age without losing your essence. We dive into the fragmentation of the psyche, the war on attention, the collapse of shared meaning, and the quiet crisis of soul disconnection—while pointing toward something deeper and more enduring: an inner light that cannot be commodified or corrupted. From Gurdjieff and Jung to death, purpose, creativity, and the sacred architecture of the self, this episode is a call to reclaim your depth, face mortality with courage, and live as if your life is a once-in-eternity song. If you’ve felt the anxiety of this cultural moment but also the stirring of something greater within you, this conversation will remind you what’s at stake—and what’s possible.Time Stamps (00:00) Teaser (00:36) Opening Conversation (04:57) Meet Mark Jones (12:28) How To Survive The Modern World (29:23) Meaning, Purpose and Suffering (35:21) Parts of Self, Astrology, Inner Light and Prisms (43:18) Mansion Rooms Metaphor (51:39) Creative Intensity and Jung (54:18) Finding Your Unique Song (57:16) Memento Mori and Amor Fati (01:13:57) Acting Training as Self-Work (01:18:38) Constructive Discontent And Path Dependence (01:26:43) Protagonist And Empathy (01:40:48) Enshittification (01:46:16) OutroGuest Linkhttps://markjonesastrology.com/ Connect with UsBook a free RATH Academy Connection Call with Joel & YerasimosJoin our membership Friends of the TruthRise Above The Herd Take the Real AF Test NowDiscover Your Truth Seeker ArchetypeWatch all our episodesConnect with us on TelegramFollow us on InstagramAccess all our links

Ep 285Ep 285 - Joel & Yerasimos | Hold the Vision

E

What if the life you secretly want isn’t a fantasy — but something real trying to emerge through you? In this episode, Joel and Yerasimos unpack the power of vision, will, and imagination — and the uncomfortable truth that many people drift through life while quietly ignoring the deeper pull toward something greater. Through personal stories of risk, rejection, doubt, and radical course-corrections, they explore what it actually takes to honor your authentic path — even when it looks irrational to others. This conversation dives into self-knowledge, perseverance, and the discipline required to turn desire into tangible reality. If you’ve felt the tension between the life you’re living and the life you know you’re capable of creating, this is your invitation to stop numbing it — and start moving toward it.Book a 20 minute free call with us for RATH AcademyJoin our membership Friends of the TruthRise Above The Herd Take the Real AF Test NowDiscover Your Truth Seeker ArchetypeWatch all our episodesConnect with us on TelegramFollow us on InstagramAccess all our links

Ep 284Ep 284 - Jordan Sather | The Shadow Civil War: Q, Epstein & the Battle Beneath the Surface

E

For over a decade, Jordan Sather has stood at the front lines of the digital information war — building one of the earliest independent platforms decoding Q in real time, getting banned from nearly every major platform during the censorship purge, and continuing to investigate the deeper layers of power, influence, and corruption behind stories like Epstein, intelligence blackmail networks, Pizzagate and the battle between mainstream and alternative media. In this wide-ranging and grounded conversation, Jordan walks us through his personal awakening, the rise (and infiltration) of the Q movement, the truth and distortion surrounding the Epstein files, and the psychological traps that can derail even the most sincere truth-seekers. You will not find blind allegiance or doom-fueled paranoia here — it’s a sober exploration of psyops, influence operations, and the responsibility that comes with knowing. If you care about discernment in a chaotic age, this episode is essential listening.Time Stamps (00:00) Episode Teaser (00:34) Opening Conversation (04:37) Understanding Ibogaine and Its Effects (06:25) The Healing Power of Ibogaine (25:24) The Definition of Self-Love That Was Revealed (33:35) Intergenerational Healing (40:51) Reverence vs. Worship: Understanding the Difference (42:43) Yerasimos’ Ayahuasca Experience (46:27) The Role of the Medicine in Personal Development (52:54) The Supplemental Dose: Processing Emotions and Ancestral Trauma (01:00:30) Integration and the Challenges of Returning to Normal Life (01:03:09) The Relationship Between Self-Betrayal and Self-Love (01:15:20) The Importance of Intent and Reverence in Medicine Work (01:22:28) Surrender and Trust: Lessons from the Divine Realm (01:27:25) Setting Intentions and Personal Reflections (01:30:09) The Impact of Social Media and Technology (01:40:37) Voluntarism and Political Philosophy (01:43:49) Personal Growth and SpiritualityGuest Linkshttps://www.jordansather.com/ Connect with UsJoin our membership Friends of the TruthRise Above The Herd Take the Real AF Test NowDiscover Your Truth Seeker ArchetypeWatch all our episodesConnect with us on TelegramFollow us on InstagramAccess all our links
