Robin rambles about life lately, from Halloween and neighborhood happenings to morning breathwork and his first experience with Dolores Cannon's Quantum Healing Hypnosis Technique (QHHT). He explores the unexpected past-life experiences that emerged, the role his skeptical parts played, and some surprising parallels with IFS.

Plus, an update on donating his grandfather's macaque skull to George Washington University's Department of Anthropology, his sixth year of Movember fundraising, thoughts on the 2026 midterm elections, and a little appreciation for Spiral Orange, the new album from Hammer No More The Fingers.

Dr. Ifeanyi Olele returns to The Robin Smith Show to explore personal growth, clinical evolution, the business of mental health, and how auditing our lives across eight dimensions can foster real alignment and well-being.

Dr. Olele is a board-certified psychiatrist and the founder of Genesis Psychiatric Solutions and Genesis TMS and Wellness. His work centers on providing comprehensive psychiatric care, integrating medication management, psychotherapy, and advanced modalities like Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) to support individuals struggling with treatment-resistant depression and complex mental health challenges. Dr. Olele is the author of The Wellness Mindset: The SWOT Analysis of Your 8 Dimensions of Wellness, where he applies strategic business principles to personal health, helping busy professionals, parents, and leaders examine their internal strengths and weaknesses alongside external opportunities and threats.

Robin and Dr. Olele talk about his journey expanding clinical practice across the DMV, the science and experience of Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS), and why proper sleep reigns supreme at the top of physical health. They also dive into internal vs. external accountability styles, the power of core beliefs, deep inner child healing, and what it means to pursue your unique calling with conviction while chronicling your life’s unvarnished journey.
