This is the last Podcast episode in this format for a while. I hope you like it. We do some house keeping up front followed by a quick word of grieving thanks to recent unfortunate circumstances.

Speak Plainly Podcast will be on a temporary hold in this format. I am headed on an adventure! I'm setting off to explore the wonders of Nepal, Ladakh, Taiwan, Japan, and Thailand. Because of that I hope you will follow my Instagram account OwlCMedicine linked in the description, as that is where Ill be sharing my travel adventures and insights.

All episodes of this podcast are available on YouTube now. I will continue to post longer form Podcast Style videos there using just my ear buds and phone. I will miss the sound of my mic but I wont miss the weight as I hike the Himalayas.


In this Episode I share a transformative insight: Environments hold the key to sustaining our willpower.

if will power worked youd have accomplished your dreams by now. So instead of relying on will power to help us do hard things maybe we ought to outsource those decisions to our environment!?


Join me as I unveil the notion of "environmental prosthetics," illustrating how intentional design of our spaces—like the simple view from a hospital window—can have a profound impact on our recovery and well-being.

Through personal stories and reflections, this episode illuminates the often unseen battle between our need for attachment and the quest for our truest selves.

We'll explore the 'doer', 'hostile', 'darkness', 'ghost' and 'are we good?' personalities, understanding how each one acts as a suit of armor, originally crafted in childhood to protect us, yet influencing our adult lives and relationships in ways we might not expect.

We cover how these personality types are based on the fight flight freeze faen responses.

We also cover the childhood situations that set up each of the 5. Including picking them up from caregivers who model them for us.

You may find yourself resonating with one or two of these types. And as you heal you may likely find yourself moving thru a hostile phase as you get in touch eith the anger that wasnt safe to feel when younger.

Ever wanted to NOT care what someone else thinks? Doesn't that sound nice? Have you even stopped yourself from doing or asking something important to you because you were afraid what someone might think or how they might judge you?

How cool would it be to no longer be bothered by what other people think? How awesome and freeing would it be to no longer be concerned with another persons opinions. And we do we even care to begin with?

In this episode we explore WHY we care what other people think and what we can do about it.

LISTEN TO THE END TO LEARN THE SECRET!!! I no longer care what other people think of me as a person. But it wasn't by accident and it wasn't easy. Its a simple yet profound perspective that has profoundly freed up my life.

Join me as we journey into the heart of inherited trauma, bridging the gap between science and spirituality by bringing clarity to a nebulous but very important topic.

This episode I talk about the types on inherited trauma:

inter-generational trauma
inherited trauma
collective trauma
cultural trauma

Together we explore the way that trauma and its echos are passed from one generation to another. We explore methylation, a primary process in creating genetic changes. Holocaust survivors and their children show more methylation on their epigenome compared to a control.

This episode tells you what Inherited trauma is, conceptually, spiritually and biochemically, teaches you ways to figure out if you may have inherited trauma and even ways to heal it.

We've unraveled the storied tapestry that is Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and its classical roots, delving into a philosophy that views health through the intricate lens of relationships, rather than isolated symptoms. The principles of yin and yang serve as the bedrock of this episode, providing a foundation for understanding how every aspect of our being is interconnected and how this contrasts with the Western medical paradigm.

Together, we navigated the philosophical landscape that sets Eastern and Western medicine philosophies on seemingly divergent courses. By comparing the preventive, balance-restoring focus of Chinese medicine with the symptom-centric approach of Western medicine, we gain a fresh perspective on healthcare. The episode illuminated how Chinese medicine practitioners use organ systems and patterns of dysfunction as their map for treatment, offering insights into achieving whole-body wellness that often escapes the grasp of conventional medicine.

Questions answered:
What is Chinese medicine?
Hoe does Chinese medicine work?
What are its strengths and weaknesses?
What can be treated by Chinese medicine?
Does it really work? (Listen to the end for an incredible personal story)

By the end of our time together, you might find yourself inspired to explore the holistic benefits of Chinese medicine and consider how its time-tested approaches could enhance your own path to well-being.

Today we confront the stark reality that our understanding of human behavior could be deeply skewed. With an overwhelming majority of psychological studies based on a narrow demographic slice of humanity, the WEIRD (Western, Educated, Industrialized, Rich, and Democratic) bias raises profound questions about the universality of research findings.

Then, we navigate the intimate and often controversial realm of parenting, where the choice between co-sleeping and bed-sharing stirs passionate debate among parents and experts alike.

I examine a meta-review, dissecting the nuanced advantages and potential hazards linked to these practices. We take a close look at how factors such as socioeconomics and cultural norms shape parental decision-making and, consequently, child development.

Bringing in perspectives from various cultures, including the Aka tribe's unique childcare approaches, this episode offers an eye-opening contemplation on the deep-seated need for physical connection in rearing our young.

If you find yourself attracted to broken toxic people there is one harsh reality that you must understand. YOU ARE TOXIC TOO! No exceptions.

This heart-to-heart is an ultimate call to arms against the cycle of toxicity we're all too familiar with. It's about transforming our empathy into sympathy that doesn't just resonate, but also alleviates, the challenges faced by those around us.

My hope is that you'll emerge enlightened and empowered to rewrite your story, creating a legacy of healthy relationships built on a newfound understanding of self and others.

In a conversation that's as timely as it is timeless, my incredible friend Jess and I unpack the notion that "The Revolution is Personal Evolution." With Presidents Day providing the backdrop and Black History Month lending its rich context, we couldn't have chosen a more opportune moment to dive into this transformative topic. By revisiting the legendary Gil Scott-Heron's "The Revolution Will Not Be Televised," we draw a compelling line connecting the personal upheavals we experience to the seismic shifts our society undergoes.

Join us as we peel back the layers of our personal stories and discover the ripple effect they have on the world around us. Jess and I get candid about our individual paths and the lessons learned along the way, providing you with a treasure trove of insights that promise to shake up your perspective. We're here to show you that true change doesn't flash across your TV screen—it starts in the mirror. Get ready to be inspired by a dialogue that doesn't just talk the talk but walks you through the very steps of personal revolution, one that ignites the sparks of societal transformation.
