    Ash and Jess are thrilled to be joined by Mark Wolynn, a world-renowned author and expert on inherited family trauma. Mark's groundbreaking international best selling book which has been translated into 39 languages, 'It Didn't Start with You,' explores how unresolved traumas can be passed down through generations, shaping our lives in profound ways.

Mark shares his insights on how to recognize, understand, and ultimately transform the unconscious patterns that drive our thoughts, emotions, and behaviors.

    This was an extra special interview for Ash and Jess, as Jess references 'It Didn't Start with You' in Episode 2 as being one of her all time favorite books that she found so much healing through. Mark hasn't done an interview in over 4 years as he worked on releasing new material and tools to help people heal, therefore it was a huge honor to be able to sit down with him and ask him all their burning questions.

  • 33 - The Real Secret to Lasting Health
    Jun 17 2025

    The secret to lasting health might not be in your perfect protocol or the obsession with a health focused routine that keeps you safe. What if it's all about the relationships in your life? The ones where you feel truly seen, understood, and supported. The relationships that feel easy, but let's be real while it might be easy, all relationships require work and how do you cultivate that? We even dive into how different people respond to conflict and when it's time to walk away from a friendship you no longer feel aligned with. Or when it's time to get vulnerable and put your heart out there for connection. Sit on the couch next to us while we break down community.
