Unapologetic Uplift with Kim and Ianthe

This bonus episode of Intentionally Ianthe is a quiet moment to pause, light a candle, and hear something you might need today. In this intention, I'm inviting you to tell the truth: to yourself first, and then to others. Not the comfortable version. The real one. The one that lives underneath the story you've been telling yourself. Fear of being unpopular. Vulnerability. That "ugh" feeling right before courage kicks in? That's exactly where your power is. ✨ Today's Intention: "May you have the courage and clarity to tell the truth today: to yourself first, and then to others. That is where your power lives. The light is lit for you. And so it is." 🕯️ On This Episode's Candle: This is a personal favorite: a three-wick candle I've been creating since 2009. It was even featured in the Oscar swag bag, gifted to every nominee. Three flames, three dancing lights, all lit for you today. 💬 Want me to set an intention just for you? Comment below or DM me on any social platform (@IantheMauro everywhere) with what you'd like me to hold space for in a future episode. Your name can stay private and you'll still be witnessed. 🎙️ Also part of Unapologetic Uplift with my co-host Kim Staples.

Denise Howell was told she'd never walk the same again. She became a fitness trainer anyway. After shattering her ankle in 2007 and being diagnosed with a rare genetic disease, one that only 1 in 1.7 million people have ever had, Denise built Bodies by Design, launched a podcast called The Grit of the Matter, and now goes live on 5 platforms simultaneously, 5 days a week at 7AM Central. She does it all while managing daily pain, a progressive disease that keeps moving to new parts of her body, and doctors who told her it was in her head. This episode is for anyone who's been gaslit by a doctor, dismissed because of their limitations, or told there's a ceiling on what their body can do. Denise doesn't push through pain because she ignores it. She pushes through it because she refuses to let it define her, and she'll show you how to do the same. In this episode: 🔥 The Preview: "Don't Apologize For Your Limitations" - Always be your own advocate. You know your body. If you feel something, keep pushing for the right answers. Denise opens the episode with the words she wishes someone had said to her years ago. 💪 Bodies by Design Origin Story: From a shattered ankle in 2007 to a rare disease diagnosis in 2014 to an ankle replacement in 2023. How Denise went from barely walking to becoming a certified fitness trainer, not to build a brand, but to save her own body. 🌐 Going Online & Launching The Grit of the Matter: Why Denise left in-person training after her replacement surgery, what she found when she moved everything online, and how this podcast was born. ⚖️ Push Through or Rest? How to Actually Know: The trainer's framework for when to keep going and when to back off, especially when you live with chronic pain and your baseline is different from everyone else's. 📱 Why She Goes Live 5 Days a Week: The real reason Denise shows up every morning on 5 platforms at once, what she's actually doing when she works out with strangers on the internet, and what a quadriplegic client once told her that changed everything. 🏥 Medical Gaslighting Is Real: An autopsy found decades of severe endometriosis labeled as "medical anxiety." Denise has been told it's in her head more times than she can count. What to do when doctors don't believe you. 🔤 What GRIT Actually Stands For: Grace. Resilience. Intentional. Trust. Thrive. The acronym behind her brand, and why one step forward counts as thriving. 🛡️ How to Advocate for Yourself When Doctors Dismiss You: Don't let it defeat you. Find your people. Keep pushing for answers. Denise shares exactly what kept her going when the medical system failed her repeatedly. 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 What Her Kids and Husband See: "I just don't let them see me stop." Her son and daughter call her one of the strongest people they know. Her husband of 30 years is her rock. How the people closest to her experience living alongside her rare disease. 🚀 Living Day to Day When the Future Is Uncertain: Why Denise doesn't plan 10 years ahead, what keeps her going when surgery can come out of nowhere, and why presence is the most powerful strategy she has. 🏆 What She'll Never Apologize For: She limps. She's not always mobile. She pushes hard. And she's done apologizing for any of it. 📲 Find Denise & Work With Her: Bodies by Design Denise.

Anjel B. Hartwell has legally changed her name five times, sold one of the first independently-owned podcasts ever sold, built three shows downloaded in 149 countries, and has been receiving direct guidance from Source since 2001. She didn't stumble into any of it: she listened, journaled, acted, and kept rebuilding after every fire. This is a masterclass in trusting what you know before you can prove it.

Community, journaling, permission, experimentation, and evidence. Why taking action on guidance is what keeps it coming. ✅ The Test for Authentic Guidance: If it's loving, clear, unconditional, and makes you curious-nervous (not fear-nervous) — that's real. How to know the difference and why the evidence builds trust. 🔮 "You Are a Wildfire." The First Download: How a crystal healer table session and a single channeled phrase cracked open her entire identity and set her on a two-decade path. 💎 Amethyst, Emerald, and the Naming Journey: Master Jesus, Master St. Germain, and Archangel Michael appeared and named her. Then it all ruptured again. The five names she's carried, what they cost, and why Anjel B. Hartwell finally balanced everything. 🎙️ The Podcast Queen Origin Story: Men on Purpose, Wickedly Smart Women, Leading Visionaries. The three shows, why she built them, what she healed through them, and why she's preparing to sell again. 🚨 The Whisper, The Knock, The Mack Truck: Guidance escalates until you listen. How to catch the whisper before the universe has to flatten you to get your attention. 🏆 You Don't Need the Certificate: Who actually created the certification?

Michael Monk was a lapsed Christian watching a movie when an overwhelming energy entered through the top of his head and changed everything. What followed over the next two decades: miraculous healings, telekinesis, out-of-body travel through the cosmos, a complete spiritual breakdown, and a return to God more powerful than before. This is one of the most extraordinary origin stories we've ever heard on Unapologetic Uplift, and Michael backs it up with 25 years of teaching, thousands of students, and a framework that bridges the gap between hard-core Christianity and the metaphysical world. If you've ever felt the electricity of a "yes" from the universe, been afraid your spiritual gifts might be demonic, or wondered whether direct experience of God is actually accessible to you — this episode is for you. In this episode: 🔊 The Voice in His Head (That Wasn't His): Michael was raised Christian, abandoned the church, and then, while watching a comedy movie, God spoke to him audibly. Electricity. Champagne bubbles of bliss. And a two-hour dialogue that rewired his understanding of reality. 👁️ The Eye Miracle That Started Everything: Home alone, a sharp object, a destroyed eyeball, and then, on his knees in the dark, a single prayer. What happened next left blood on his forehead and no wound to explain it. 🌊 When the World Started Rippling: Standing in a parking lot after reading The Law of One, the physical world dissolved into rainbow-hued shimmering light. He opened his chest. The energy poured in. And he almost didn't come back. 💀 "I Am God..." and Why It Nearly Destroyed Him: Michael embraced New Age philosophy to its absolute limit, declared himself God, and lost everything. His soulmate, his assets, his YouTube channel, his mind. What the dark side of self-empowerment actually looks like when you live it. ⚡ The Return: Self-Mastery Needs Two Helpings of God: The comeback story. How his soulmate's prayer pulled him back, and why he now teaches that the greatest act of self-empowerment is total devotion to something greater than the self. 🚀 1,000+ Out-of-Body Experiences. What He Actually Found: He traveled planetary, solar, galactic, and universal. Then past the edge of the universe itself. What exists beyond the omniverse, and why the "God within" vs. "God without" debate is a false choice. 🔮 How to Know If You're Dancing With the Right Spirit: "By their fruit you will know them." Why vibration alone doesn't tell the whole story, what the real ascension symptoms look like (hint: it's not fatigue), and how to spot a spiritual predator, even one radiating pure love. ⛪ Why Religious People Fear Energy Healing (And Why That's About to Change): Kim gets personal about the clients who've called her work sacrilegious. Michael explains why the Church's fear of energy was actually a protection mechanism for humanity, and why that era is now over. 🌐 The Tree of Life Church + Avatar Energy Mastery Institute: Two organizations, one mission. Whether you want pure technique (no spiritual philosophy required) or the full God-and-mastery framework, Michael explains how to find him and what free access he's offering listeners right now.

What if the key to unlocking your full potential has been hiding in plain sight, disguised as woo? In this episode, Ianthe and Kim sit down with Lawrence Ellyard, founder of the International Institute for Complementary Therapists (IICT), who has spent 25 years bringing credibility to the wellness world... and he's got receipts. From sympathetic resonance to the dangerous trap of spiritual fraud, this conversation will challenge everything you thought you knew about alternative healing and make you question whether your skepticism is wisdom or just fear in disguise. If you've ever rolled your eyes at crystals, whispered a birthday candle wish, or wondered whether your healer is the real deal... this episode is for you. In this episode: 🎯 Owning the Woo, Unapologetically: Lawrence is co-producer of an upcoming documentary called The New Woo, and he makes the case: what was fringe is now mainstream. Breathwork, meditation, cold plunge, red light therapy, the old "woo" is the new science. When do we stop apologizing for it? 🎸 Sympathetic Resonance and Why You Instantly Click With Some People: Like a guitar string vibrating across a music shop, we naturally attract people on our frequency. Lawrence explains the science and the spirituality behind those instant "I know this person" moments. ⚠️ The Fraud Problem No One Talks About: Ianthe grew up with a healer mother and a crystal ball at age five, and she still developed a finely tuned BS detector. Lawrence breaks down how to tell the difference between authentic healing and spiritual predators hiding behind love and light. 🧠 Think About Your Thinking: We're running on autopilot 90% of the time. Lawrence's framework for curiosity, discernment, and beginner's mind could be the pattern interrupt you didn't know you needed. 🙏 Is Prayer Woo? (Spoiler: Yes, and That's the Point): If you've ever made a wish on birthday candles, you're already doing it. Lawrence reframes "woo" as ancient wisdom repackaged and explains why every human has access to it, whether they admit it or not. 📜 The 1,400 Modality Question: From aikido to chakra work, IICT accredits practitioners across more than 1,400 wellness modalities globally. If you're a practitioner, a seeker, or just credential-curious, this is the one-stop shop you didn't know existed. (myiict.com) 🌍 From Byron Bay to Your Earbuds: Lawrence joins from one of Australia's most iconic wellness hubs, the coastal Sedona, and brings the energy of a place where every second person is some kind of healer. You'll feel it through the screen. ✨ The Formula for Life: Kindness. Compassion. Curiosity. Three words.

As Kim Staples and Ianthe Mauro approach their two-year anniversary of Unapologetic Uplift, they get real about what this podcast is actually about: owning your power, telling your truth, and showing up unapologetically as yourself, no matter what. In this episode, we explore: 🎙️ What Is Unapologetic Uplift, Really? Two years in, Kim and Ianthe revisit the heartbeat of the show: a massive permission slip for people to be authentically, unapologetically themselves. Not a watered-down version — the full, real, sometimes extra version. 💬 Words Are Spells — Kim shares how she teaches her children that words carry real energetic power. The intentions you speak out loud, even casually, create ripples. Her daughter's sweet treat manifestation story is the perfect proof. 🌀 Manifestation Without the Rigidity — Specific vs. non-specific manifesting, what your Human Design has to do with it, and why being open (instead of hyper-specific) can actually bring you something even better than what you asked for. 🪞 Perception Is a Mirror — The way you perceive others says more about you than it does about them. Kim and Ianthe unpack how judgment and triggers are invitations to look inward, and how curiosity is the antidote to acting from a place of malintent. 🔄 Stop Explaining Yourself — If you're constantly defending who you are to people who don't get you, this one's for you. Kim talks about her early coaching days, the trolls, the keyboard warriors, and the moment she realized: "The way you perceive me says more about you than me. Bye." ❤️ Season 3 Is Coming — Energetic up-levels, exciting guests, and a new theme: putting yourself first. Not as a cliché, as a necessity. 🩺 Ianthe Gets Vulnerable — Sharing her ongoing digestive health challenges in real time, Ianthe models what it looks like to honor your body's signals and prioritize yourself even when it's uncomfortable.

What does it mean to truly heal? And what happens when you can see where pain lives in someone's body? In this episode, Ianthe Mauro sits down with Pearly Montagu: healer, reflexologist, channel, and visionary, for a deeply moving conversation about the gift of sight, the science of water, trusting the unknown, and what it means to live a life of service. In this episode, we explore: ✨ Pearly's Origin Story: From finance and a near-death boat accident to becoming a healer, Pearly shares the wild surrender experiment that changed everything 🔬 Synesthesia as a Healing Gift: Pearly describes how she literally sees pain in the body, and how she learned to turn this remarkable ability on and off. 💧 Bio Resonance & The Science of Water: We dive into Masaru Emoto's studies on water memory, structured water, and how Pearly is building a sacred water temple in Corfu inspired by Japanese WA principles. 🌿 Near-Death Experiences & What Lies Beyond: Pearly and Ianthe both share their NDE experiences and explore the research of Dr. Bruce Greyson at Virginia University on "cross-border phenomena." 🏃 Movement Is the Medicine: How Pearly healed herself when Western medicine couldn't help, and why movement and gratitude remain the ultimate tools. 🧠 The Heathrow Runway Mind: Pearly's powerful analogy for building mental resilience and navigating life's challenges without being shaken. 🤲 Energetic Surgery & Consent: What it looks and feels like when Pearly channels healing, how she works with energetic bonds between people, and the ethics of working without direct consent. 🚫 The Power of Not Doubting: Why eliminating doubt in your gifts may be the single most transformative thing you can do. 🌊 The Water Temple: Pearly's extraordinary vision: a sacred healing space at 34°, the temperature of the womb, designed for transformation and ceremony. 🛡️ Protection Practices for Healers: How Pearly learned the hard way to protect her energy — and what everyone walking around with an open third eye needs to know.

Welcome to Unhinged Out Loud with Kim Staples, where I say the quiet part out loud. You are not broken. You are at the threshold. If you've been feeling restless, heavy, or like something is on the edge of shifting, this episode is for you. This is not a talk episode. This is a transmission. A guided energy experience designed to meet you exactly where you are and walk you through the door you've been standing at. Because here's the truth: the discomfort you've been trying to outrun? That IS the door. Most of us were never taught to stay present with what's hard. We were taught to escape it, distract from it, fix it, or numb it. And so we pull back right before the breakthrough. We reach for the exit just before the door opens. This episode is about learning to stay. In this episode, I'm walking you through: ✨ A brief energy update for where we are collectively right now ✨ Why the discomfort, fear, and grief you're feeling is not a sign something is wrong — it's a sign something is ready to shift ✨ A full guided energy transmission using gold, blue, and orange light to restore your capacity, your strength, and your alchemical gifts ✨ Why fearing the feeling is always more painful than actually feeling it This episode includes: • Why the warrior's work isn't complicated: it's just brave • How to anchor yourself into the earth and open to receive what's waiting on the other side of resistance • The truth about the armor you built to protect yourself, and why you don't need it the same way anymore • How to restore strength that comes not from avoiding hard things, but from finally staying with them • Why the work you're doing right now creates a ripple that extends to your children, your lineage, and all of humanity If you've ever pulled back right before the breakthrough, this episode will give you the energetic support to stay just a little longer than you have before. Because the alchemy doesn't happen when we avoid the fire. It happens when we are willing to sit beside it long enough to be transformed.

Join Kim Staples and Ianthe Mauro on Unapologetic Uplift for a conversation that meets you right where the energy is: spicy, fiery, and full of invitation. This week, they're diving into how to work with intense energy rather than against it, why your ideas are sacred downloads that deserve protection, and the spiritual practice that just might be the most advanced one of all. In this episode, we explore: 🔥 The Current Energy Is Spicy, And That's a Gift. There's a fire energy in the air, and it's showing up as reactivity, defensiveness, and the urge to snap back. Kim and Ianthe break down why this isn't something to suppress: it's something to alchemize. This intensity is creative fuel. The question is what you do with it. ⏸️ The Sacred Pause, The Most Advanced Spiritual Practice. Between stimulus and reaction lives a sacred pause. That pause is where you stop reacting from your trauma and start choosing who you actually are. Kim and Ianthe explore why mastering this space is more powerful than any other spiritual tool in your toolkit. 😤 Anger Isn't the Problem, Suppression Is. Anger is energy in motion, and it's trying to tell you something. The issue isn't the feeling: it's what happens when you throw it at someone, or worse, swallow it whole. Learn how to channel anger into creativity, clarity, and power instead of letting it either explode or calcify. 💡 Your Ideas Are Divine Downloads. If an idea lives in your head, you can achieve it. Full stop. You will never receive a download too big for you — but most people talk themselves out of their ideas before they ever take one step. Kim and Ianthe talk about what it actually looks like to be an action taker and trust your downloads as divine. 🤫 Protect Your Ideas Like Sacred Babies. When an idea is new, it's fragile, and so are you. Sharing it too soon with the wrong people can destroy it before it has roots. Jealousy has a real energetic charge. Kim breaks down the 30-day rule and why your vision is yours for a reason: nobody else will see it the way you do. ⚡ Reactivity Isn't Only Anger, It's Excitement Too. We don't often talk about reactive enthusiasm, but it's real. Announcing ideas before they're ready, posting before you have a plan, outsourcing your accountability to the internet: Kim and Ianthe get real about the maturity it takes to move intentionally with your ideas while still being a bold action taker. 🪜 You Don't Need to Know How, Just Take the Next Step. Don't let the how stop you. With divine downloads, you only ever need one next step. Take it. The next step will appear. The synchronicities will line up. The right person will show up. Kim and Ianthe close with a reminder that 1% progress every day is how big ideas actually become real. Subscribe and join the conversation!

Join Kim Staples on Unapologetic Uplift for a solo episode that cuts through the noise of modern wellness and gets to the truth most practitioners won't tell you — the root cause is energetic, and until you go there, you'll keep spinning. In this episode, we explore: 🏠 The Five Bodies Framework – Physical, energetic, emotional, mental, and spiritual. You have five bodies, not one — and if you're only tending to some of them, you're creating an imbalance that will eventually show up somewhere. Kim breaks down what each body is, how they're connected, and why ignoring even one keeps you stuck. ⚡ Nervous System Regulation Isn't Enough – You can breathe, ground, and regulate all day long — and still snap at your kids, wake up at 3AM, and feel that low hum of dread. Why? Because regulation addresses the symptom. The energetic charge underneath is still running the show. 🧠 Thoughts Are Downstream – Years of therapy, shadow work, and reframing limiting beliefs... and the same patterns keep showing back up. That's not failure — that's because the root is not a thought. The energetic charge came first. The mind is just trying to make sense of it. 💧 Emotions Are Energy in Motion – When we suppress, bypass, or intellectualize our feelings instead of actually feeling them, they don't disappear. They compress. They calcify. They become stuck energy — and that stuck energy is what keeps you looping no matter how much work you do. 🔌 The Electrical Wiring Metaphor – You can renovate the entire house — new walls, new furniture, new kitchen — but if the wiring is faulty, everything will short circuit eventually. Your energetic body is the wiring. That's where healing has to start. 🌟 Spiritual Disconnection Isn't a Mindset Problem – That feeling of going through the motions, doing everything right and still feeling like something is missing? That's the spiritual body, starved of attention and blocked by unresolved energetic weight sitting in every layer beneath it. Clear the root — and the connection often returns on its own. 🩺 Root Cause vs. Symptom Management – Kim makes the case for why most wellness tools — therapy, mindset work, nervous system regulation — are working downstream. Not because they don't help, but because they were never designed to go where the real disruption lives. Subscribe and join the conversation!

Welcome to episode 7 of Unhinged Out Loud with Kim Staples, where I say the quiet part out loud. You cannot drag someone out of their survival strategy, no matter how much you love them. When you're deep in your healing journey, one of the loneliest things no one prepares you for is this: the grief of loving people who aren't doing the work. Not judging them. Not feeling superior. Just... watching someone you love suffer from the same wounds, the same cycles, the same patterns, and knowing exactly what it would take to shift it. But they didn't ask. And even when they do ask, they don't always have the container to receive it. That's what this episode is about. Because truth delivered to a dysregulated nervous system doesn't land as love, it lands as threat. And you, as an intuitive, feel every wall that goes up. You feel yourself pouring into a cup with a crack in the bottom. And then you feel guilty for feeling drained. I see you. In this episode, I'm walking you through: ✨ The difference between loving someone and being responsible for their awakening ✨ Why your empathy without boundaries is self-abandonment ✨ What "loving from a distance" actually means, and why it might be the most spiritually mature love there is ✨ When it's time to walk away, and why that is not a failure of love This episode includes: • Why truth seekers tend to hold on too long, and how that becomes self-abandonment • The three questions to ask yourself when a relationship is costing you your peace • Why removing yourself as a buffer might be the most loving thing you can do • The difference between enabling someone's avoidance and holding space for their highest self • Why your limits are not cruelty, they are sovereignty If you've ever felt the quiet grief of loving someone who isn't ready, this episode will give you permission to stop carrying what was never yours to carry. Because the most loving thing you can do for the people in your life is refuse to disappear for them.

Join Kim Staples and Ianthe Mauro for a conversation on Unapologetic Uplift that will make you rethink everything you've been told about planning, preparation, and trusting yourself. In this episode, we explore: 🎯 The Myth of Being "Prepared" – What if over-preparing is actually getting in your way? Kim and Ianthe break down the difference between conventional preparation (outlines, schedules, scripts) and the deeper kind of readiness that comes from doing the inner work and trusting yourself to show up. ✨ Spontaneity Is a Superpower – Being in the moment isn't irresponsible — it's a radical act of self-trust. Learn why some of the most successful, creative, high-performing people in the room aren't following the plan at all. 🌿 Flow Over Formula – From running top-performing corporate locations without following the playbook to tapping into universal energy before client sessions, Kim and Ianthe share how responding to what's actually alive beats any rigid system. 🌤️ Look at the Sky – Are you checking your phone for the weather, or opening a window and actually feeling it? This simple practice becomes a powerful metaphor for how to stop consuming secondhand reality and start responding to what's really in front of you. 💪 Trust, Resilience & Self-Worth – When you throw away the script and still do brilliantly, something shifts. You build a new relationship with yourself — one rooted in evidence, not anxiety. That's where real confidence grows. 🤝 We Need Each Other – Type A or totally in-the-flow, neither way is wrong. The magic happens when we stop making ourselves wrong for how we're wired, find what lights us up, and surround ourselves with people who complement (not clone) us. 🏢 Leadership Without Ego – The best leaders aren't the ones with the most structure — they're the ones who trust their teams enough to let them find their own way to the result. Kim shares lessons from managing diverse teams across multiple departments and what she learned from every single one of them. Subscribe and join the conversation!

Welcome to episode 6 of Unhinged Out Loud with Kim Staples, where I say the quiet part out loud. Your wounds didn't close you. You did. And you can choose differently. When betrayal stacks up, when the people you trusted let you down, it becomes dangerously easy to let those wounds quietly harden into armor. You stop letting people in. You stop trusting yourself. You forget that staying open isn't weakness — it's the most radical act of courage you can choose. But here's what they don't tell you: An open heart isn't naive. An open heart has boundaries. An open heart trusts its gut. An open heart stays present with pain without shutting down. And an open heart chooses love — not because nothing hurts anymore, but because you've built the inner foundation to stay soft and strong at the same time. In this powerful guided energy transmission, I help you shift from: ✨ Armor to openness ✨ Fear to love ✨ Survival mode to an embodied, healed heart ✨ Closing off to staying present — even when it hurts This episode includes: • Why "keeping your guard up" is just fear with a really good PR strategy • The truth about why you can't think your way into an open heart — you have to heal your way there • Somatic and nervous system healing as the path to real, lasting openness • A guided energy transmission to help you feel what it means to live from an open heart • How healed women ripple their healing outward — and why the world needs you to do this now If you've been betrayed, hurt, or quietly closing yourself off without even realizing it, this episode will bring you back home to your heart. Because your heart does something your armor cannot: it keeps you truly alive.

This bonus episode of Intentionally Ianthe is a quiet, candlelit moment just for you. Rooted in a practice that began when I was five years old at the Waldorf School — where my teacher would light a candle at snack time and set an intention for all of us — I've carried this ritual my entire life. Today, I'm sharing it with you. In this episode, I'm setting an intention for kindness toward yourself — because those things that bother you about yourself? They might just be proof that you're on a beautiful journey of self-awareness. Let's let them go together. ✨ How to Participate: Comment below or DM me on any social platform (@IantheMauro everywhere) with the intention you'd like me to set for you in a future episode. I'll light a candle and speak your intention out loud — witnessed, supported, and held in community. Your name can remain private if you prefer! 💫 Today's Intention:"May you be kinder to yourself today. May you notice what's bothering you about yourself, recognize it as proof you're on a journey of deeper self-awareness — and then let it go. Find something truly beautiful about yourself that you love, and let that be." 🕯️ About Today's Candle: Today's candle is from my own line, Gan Aden Farms — gorgeous in a thick green glass. Made with a proprietary wax that's the safest and cleanest you can burn. No black smoke, no polluting your air or your family's lungs.

Join Kim Staples for a solo episode on Unapologetic Uplift that will change how you think about pain, healing, and transformation. In this episode, we explore: 💔 Pain vs. Suffering – Discover why pain that is felt is moved, but pain that is avoided is stored. Kim breaks down the difference between the inevitable pain of being human and the suffering we create when we refuse to let that pain move through us. 🔬 Why Western Medicine Has It Wrong – The medical model teaches us to eliminate symptoms and return to function, but what if pain isn't the enemy? What if it's the messenger? Learn why silencing pain often makes it louder in other ways: chronic illness, autoimmune disease, addiction, and anxiety. 🧠 The Body Keeps the Score – Drawing on the work of Dr. Bessel van der Kolk, Peter Levine, and Dr. Gabor Maté, Kim explains how trauma lives in your fascia, nervous system, and gut. You can't think your way out—you have to feel your way through. 🌍 Ancient Wisdom, Modern Science – From Buddhism's Four Noble Truths to Rumi's "The Guest House," from Taoism's principle of wu wei to Indigenous healing rituals, Kim shows how ancient traditions have always known what we're just rediscovering: the path to liberation runs directly through pain, not around it. 🌊 Surrender Is Not Weakness – Surrender isn't giving up—it's the radical act of stopping the fight against reality. Learn why the breakdown is often the breakthrough, and how saying "this is what is" becomes the doorway to real healing. 🛠️ Practical Tools for Leaning In – Kim offers concrete practices: somatic work, affect labeling, breath work, trauma-informed movement, and building your window of tolerance. This isn't just philosophy—it's actionable wisdom for when you're dissociating at your kitchen table on a Wednesday. ✨ The Alchemy of Pain – "The wound is where the light enters." Your suffering isn't a sign something has gone wrong—it's an invitation to go deeper. Pain that you allow, breathe with, and let move becomes the raw material of your greatest compassion, clearest sight, and most unshakeable strength. Subscribe and join the conversation!

Welcome to episode 5 of Unhinged Out Loud with Kim Staples, where I say the quiet part out loud. The world is selling you fear. Your heart knows better. When the noise gets loud, when fear, doubt, and opinions drown out your inner voice, it becomes dangerously easy to see everything through the lens of distortion. You doubt yourself. You doubt others. You forget that love is the most intelligent lens you have. But here's what they don't tell you: Love isn't passive. Love holds boundaries. Love trusts inner knowing. Love sees clearly. And love chooses certainty when fear is trying to sell you doubt. In this powerful guided meditation energy transmission, I help you shift from: ✨ Fear to love ✨ Doubt to unshakable certainty✨ External chaos to your own inner knowing ✨ Self-abandonment to sovereign truth This episode includes: • A somatic practice to dissolve fear from your nervous system and body • How to activate your "truth channel" with the alignment of heart, voice, and intuition • A boundary of love meditation to let love in while fear bounces off • Grounding techniques to anchor you in your inner knowing when the world tries to pull you into chaos If you've been questioning yourself, second-guessing your intuition, or feeling pulled into collective fear, this meditation will bring you back home to your heart. Because your heart does something your mind cannot: it knows the truth.

Welcome to episode 4 of Unhinged Out Loud with Kim Staples, where I say the quiet part out loud. What if the struggle isn't the problem? What if you chose it? If you've battled low self-worth your entire life—if you keep attracting relationships that diminish you, if opportunities feel like tests, if success keeps slipping through your fingers—this episode will change everything you thought you knew about why. Here's the truth: Low self-worth isn't a character flaw. It's a soul-level initiation. And you didn't get it by accident. In this episode, I share: ✨ Why your soul may have chosen low self-worth as your karmic lesson (and what that actually means) ✨ How the universe withholds what you want most when you're still outsourcing your worth to external validation ✨ The difference between intellectual certainty and somatic certainty—and why only one creates lasting change ✨ Exactly how low self-worth shows up in love, money, career, health, peace, and family ✨ A powerful daily practice to begin rewiring your relationship with yourself at the root If you've poured everything into relationships, business, or dreams that just won't take off—if you're tired of performing worthiness—this episode is your permission to stop proving and start remembering. This isn't about affirmations. It's about nervous system healing and somatic reprogramming.

Join Kim Staples for a powerful conversation with holistic practitioner Nadia Vero about spiritual awakening, religious trauma, and reclaiming authentic confidence. In this episode, we explore: ✨ Spiritual Awakening & Religious Trauma – Nadia shares her journey leaving Islam after her spiritual awakening and the profound cognitive dissonance that came with realizing "everything I learned was a lie." We discuss how faith implies doubt versus deep knowing, and navigating spiritual abuse from family and community. 🌟 Choosing Your Own Identity – Nadia explains why she changed her last name to "Vero" (meaning "truth") and how it represents her commitment to authenticity and being unapologetically herself. 💪 Making Decisions from Neutrality – Learn the difference between reactive decisions (made from fear or excitement) versus grounded choices. Nadia shares how she spent four years healing before leaving her marriage, making the decision from clarity rather than emotion. 🧠 The Subconscious Mind & Childhood Wounds – We dive into how core wounds form between ages 0-9 and unconsciously run 95% of our lives. Discover why hypnotherapy works where talk therapy falls short, and how to get to the root cause instead of managing symptoms. 👁️ Intuition vs. Anxiety – The key distinction: intuition is a subtle knowing in your body, while anxiety screams and won't shut up. Learn to trust your internal guidance system. 👶 Conscious Parenting & Being Present – How awakening naturally transforms how you show up for your children, plus the importance of trusting your motherly instinct even when doctors dismiss you. 🎯 The Brave Zone Approach – Nadia breaks down her holistic method for helping people pleasers, empaths, and anxiously attached individuals become calm, clear, and confident. It's not about fixing surface-level behaviors—it's about healing the core wound underneath. Subscribe and join the conversation!

In this episode, we explore: ✨ The Current Energy Shift – Kim shares how she's feeling low energy yet more intuitive and grounded than ever, describing this period as fast-moving and no longer supportive of procrastination. The message? Take action, even if it's messy, and course-correct later. 🌍 Narcissistic Leadership & Corruption – We discuss what we see as a correction happening in the world, with narcissistic leadership and corruption coming to the surface. The key is staying sovereign, grounded, and present rather than getting pulled into fear. 🔮 Self-Awareness Tools – We dive into human design, Chinese zodiac/feng shui, Western astrology, Enneagram, and Kolbe as optional modalities that help us understand ourselves through story. We caution against rigid identity attachment and share a hilarious anecdote about Ianthe's father believing he was an Aquarius despite his birth certificate saying otherwise. 🚫 Complaining vs. Processing – Learn the difference between complaining and processing with curiosity and self-responsibility. We argue that complaining blocks intuition and miracles, and challenge you to try a "complaining diet." 💭 Judgment, Gossip & Boundaries – We explore how judgment points back at ourselves, the importance of energetic boundaries, and how to navigate reactivity with love and self-awareness. 👨‍👩‍👧 Parenting & Worry – Kim shares a powerful technique for speaking worries out loud to dispel their effect and open conversation with your children, plus insights on how worrying can actually project darkness onto those we love. Subscribe, share, and join the conversation! We release new content Mondays (Intentionally Ianthe), Wednesdays (full episodes), and Fridays (Kim Unhinged Out Loud). Learn more about your ad choices.

Welcome to episode 3 of Unhinged Out Loud with Kim Staples, where I say the quiet part out loud. Why do you keep hitting the same walls over and over again? Why do you sabotage yourself right when success starts to feel good? Attract the same type of chaos in relationships or business? Know exactly what you need to do but can't seem to actually do it? Most people think it's a mindset problem, a discipline problem, or a strategy problem. It's not. It's a nervous system and unresolved trauma problem—and in this episode, I'm breaking down exactly why and what you can actually do about it. Here's the truth: You can't think your way out of nervous system dysregulation. Understanding your trauma and healing your trauma are two completely different things. In this episode, we dive into: ✨ Why your nervous system is running outdated programming written by your childhood self ✨ The difference between understanding trauma intellectually vs. healing it somatically ✨ The 7 core chakra blocks set before age 9 that are still running your life (survival, shame, anxiety, authenticity, expression, vision, and trust wounds) ✨ What "rerecognition" is and how it rewires your nervous system at the root ✨ My personal story of healing my first core wound after my father's death If you've been doing the mindset work but still hitting the same walls, if you're exhausted from performing wellness while drowning inside, this episode is for you. Join me for a FREE masterclass on March 10th: "Unblocked: The 7 Core Wounds Keeping You Stuck" where I'll walk you through all seven wounds in detail and guide you through a live healing experience.

What does "raising your consciousness" really mean, and why does it matter for breaking cycles, healing trauma, and showing up as your highest self? In this episode of Unapologetic Uplift, Kim Staples and Ianthe Mauro break down consciousness in a way that's practical, real, and actionable—no spiritual bypassing, no woo-woo fluff. Just honest conversation about how your level of awareness impacts everything: your relationships, your parenting, your ability to create the life you actually want. What You'll Learn: ✨ The difference between low consciousness (survival mode, reactivity, fear) and high consciousness (creation mode, presence, love) ✨ Why regulating your nervous system is the foundation for raising consciousness ✨ How unprocessed emotions and unhealed trauma keep you stuck at lower vibrations ✨ Practical ways to raise your consciousness: questioning beliefs, practicing presence, cultivating compassion, and more ✨ The power of surrounding yourself with high-consciousness people (givers, not takers) ✨ A simple centering practice to shift your energy before entering any space Key Takeaway: You're not stuck at one level of consciousness. You can intentionally raise it—and when you do, everything shifts. Your triggers lose their power. Your patterns break. Your life transforms.

The world feels like a dumpster fire right now. People are angry, divided, and reactive, and while there are real reasons to be upset, here's the truth: reactive energy has never created lasting change. In this episode, Kim Staples and Ianthe Mauro dive deep into why the single most revolutionary thing you can do right now is learn to stop reacting. Not because injustice is okay, but because when you're reactive, you're predictable, and when you're predictable, you're controllable. What We Cover: ✨ Why the two-party system is designed to keep you divided and distracted✨ How to regulate your nervous system using simple box breathing techniques✨ The difference between rising above chaos and spiritual bypassing✨ Why "silence is violence" and other clichés can be psychological manipulation✨ How Kim transformed her relationship with her ex by choosing blessings over reactivity✨ The power of the Sacred Pause: waiting 24 hours before responding✨ Finding YOUR lane for activism (hint: it's not what social media tells you)✨ Why identity can divide us, and what happens when we let it go The Bottom Line:Real power comes from the pause. From feeling the trigger, regulating your nervous system, and then deciding how to respond. This is how we create real change—one regulated nervous system at a time.

In this bonus episode, I'm addressing something so many of you secretly wonder: Am I actually spiritually gifted? Is my intuition real, or am I just making it up?
