  • The Future is Telepathic (and it’s already here!), w/Fenix Grace
    Mar 13 2026

    If you’ve ever thought about a friend, only to see they just texted you—congratulations, you’re telepathic!

    I’m honored to have Fenix Grace, a psychic, writer, and intuitive development teacher on the podcast to talk about telepathy and intuitive societies.

    Spoiler: Everyone is intuitive and we already live in an intuitive society, but as Fenix explains, our current culture just doesn’t validate intuition.

    This is an incredible conversation that lays groundwork for the world we want to live in, through both insights and imagination. If you’re ready to create the new world, this one’s for you!

    Some highlights:

    • Feminine energy as creation versus reception
    • The two telepathic channels in your face
    • Understanding that self-hatred thoughts are actually not your own
    • How an intuitive society would actually function, and how collective intuition would change how we think about privacy
    • Ways to make life lighter and more fun by living intuitively, today

  • How Egg Laying Could Be the Future of Childbirth
    Mar 6 2026

    Picture this: You live in Central America, and you start hearing the women up in North America are not having live births anymore … but are laying eggs.

    The stuff of sci-fi?

    Maybe! But in this interview with undergraduate biologist and neuroscientist Ginger Lee Owens, we learn about humanity’s own history with laying eggs and species that have responded to environmental changes by adapting childbirth.

    Some highlights:

    • Why a single animal species concurrently has egg laying and live births
    • How we could genetically hack humans to switch to laying eggs, and why proximity to water matters
    • Potential environmental causes for an evolutionary shift away from live births
    • Ways our culture could benefit from multigenerational spaces, and evidence of the value of elder wisdom

  • Exploring Flower Remedies as the Future of Medicine, w/ Anna Cantwell
    Feb 27 2026

    In ancient stories, the plants themselves told humans which of them was safe to eat. Lucky for us, they still talk.

    I’m joined by spiritual coach Anna Cantwell to explore our favorite healing modality that not enough people know about:

    Flower remedies.


    Some highlights:

    • How Anna’s mentors passed down wisdom on how to work with flowers as energy medicine
    • The gentle but palpable experience of using flower remedies to ease migraines, protect your energy, make more money, or find love
    • How Anna uses intuition to forage, make, and name flower remedies for her collection, Wild Plenty
    • The single healthcare segment that can’t be addressed by flower remedies alone
