  • Trauma Is Not The End Of The Story with Tom Glaser 27.07.2026 1h 5min
    Tom Glaser lived through an abusive childhood. It shaped him — until he looked inward, until he healed. Our bodies hold what happened to us. And we can still heal. We can learn resilience. It takes awareness and consciousness. It takes the courage to look inward, find your voice, and live an aligned life. Trauma is not the end of the story. It's a lifelong journey — toward a full heart.     In this episode, Tom shares his own raw, lived experience — the foundation of his life's work helping others heal. His latest book, The House That Resilience Built, is a deep dive into trauma, resilience, and what it actually takes to heal.     Tom is a licensed psychologist with over 40 years of experience helping people heal, grow, and reconnect with their innate resilience. He's also a lifelong meditator, a yoga teacher, and the author of two Amazon bestselling books.     I hope this conversation moves you the way it moved me.     LEARN MORE ABOUT Tom Glaser:   Website: https://tomglaserlp.com/    LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tom-glaser-ms-lp-69774910/    Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/user/TomGlaserLP      JOIN MY COMMUNITY   -         Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/catherineduncanmabcc/ -         Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/CatherineDuncanmabcc -         YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@catherineduncanmabcc -         Website - https://www.catherineduncan.org   Everyday Awakening with Catherine Duncan is a journey into our heart and soul and oneness with the Universe.
  • Living Fully for Today with Larkin McPhee 13.07.2026 55min
    What does it mean to truly live when you're facing death?     My guest today, Larkin, walked beside her brother Charles through his battle with ALS — and learned that death is just another doorway to walk through. Charles met his illness with a faith so deep it was palpable, and a zest for life that never dimmed, even as his body did.     A lesson to all of us on how to walk through the next doorway.     Larkin's new book, I'll See You in My Dreams, tells their story — a sister and brother finding meaning, humor, and grace inside the hardest goodbye. We talk about what he taught her, what she carried forward, and what it looks like to stay fully present with someone you love as they're dying.     Larkin is a Peabody and Emmy Award-winning documentary director, producer, and writer with over 30 years telling human stories — on mental health, the environment, science, and the quiet resilience of ordinary people. Her acclaimed PBS work includes Depression: Out of the Shadows, Dying to Be Thin, and Caring for Mom & Dad. She's built her career at NOVA, National Geographic EXPLORER, and Smithsonian World — and now she's turned the camera on her own family's story.     LEARN MORE ABOUT Larkin McPhee:   Website: https://larkinmcphee.com/    Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/larkinmcphee/    Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/larkin.mcphee3      JOIN MY COMMUNITY   -         Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/catherineduncanmabcc/ -         Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/CatherineDuncanmabcc -         YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@catherineduncanmabcc -         Website - https://www.catherineduncan.org   Everyday Awakening with Catherine Duncan is a journey into our heart and soul and oneness with the Universe.
  • Growing Hope with Dr. Robyne Hanley-Dafoe 29.06.2026 57min
    Hope isn't a feeling you wait for. It's a practice you build.     My guest today, Dr. Robyne Hanley-Dafoe explores the neuroscience, psychology, and resilience research behind hope — and why it may be the most underestimated skill we have. Dr. Robyne draws from her own story of childhood institutionalization and a near-death experience to show how hope can be held even in the hardest places. Her latest book, I Hope So, is born from her lived experience.     We explore the relationship between hope and trust, and what it really means to grow more resilient — not by returning to who you were, but by becoming someone who can carry more. Grief changes us. It's not something we get over; it's something we learn to carry. And hope is how we learn to carry it.     Dr. Robyne Hanley-Dafoe is an award-winning psychologist, education behaviorist, and two-time TEDx speaker with over 18 years of university teaching and research experience. She is known for making complex science feel personal and usable — delivering insight with both rigor and heart.     What gives you life right now? What are you allowing yourself to hope for?     LEARN MORE ABOUT Dr. Robyne Hanley-Dafoe:   Website: https://drrobyne.ca   Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dr_robynehd/   Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/drrobynehd   Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@dr_robynehd/videos   JOIN MY COMMUNITY   -         Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/catherineduncanmabcc/ -         Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/CatherineDuncanmabcc -         YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@catherineduncanmabcc -         Website - https://www.catherineduncan.org   Everyday Awakening with Catherine Duncan is a journey into our heart and soul and oneness with the Universe.
  • Where the Divine Finds Us 15.06.2026 8min
    What does it mean to truly be here — not just in concept, but in body, breath, and presence? In this episode, Catherine explores the practice of returning: from the busy, chattering mind back to the stillness that lives beneath it. Using the simple anchor of the senses — what you see, hear, and feel right now — she guides listeners into the quiet truth that we are not our thoughts, but the space in which they arise. Woven through this reflection is a personal story: her 98-year-old mother's hospitalization, and the moment Catherine caught herself at the edge of fear — and chose a different path. One that could hold grief and hope at the same time.     This is an episode about presence as practice, and about the deep, quiet knowing that arises when we stop thinking our way through life and start meeting it.      You are the light.      All is well. Even now. Even here.         Tune in to Everyday Awakening and Subscribe on iTunes and leave a review to help others discover this transformative conversation.         JOIN MY COMMUNITY   -         Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/catherineduncanmabcc/ -         Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/CatherineDuncanmabcc -         YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@catherineduncanmabcc -         Website - https://www.catherineduncan.org   Everyday Awakening with Catherine Duncan is a journey into our heart and soul and oneness with the Universe.

Known as the "Science Curator" of the mind-body connection, he brings together the science of the biofield, pranic healing, and the study of consciousness to help you understand what your energy body is telling you — and how to listen.     Can you open your heart, expand your awareness, and reconnect with the Universal energy that flows through all of us.     LEARN MORE ABOUT Dr. Jason Yuan   Website: https://drjasonyuan.carrd.co   Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drjasonyuan/   Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/drjasonyuan   Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@drjasonyuan   JOIN MY COMMUNITY   -         Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/catherineduncanmabcc/ -         Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/CatherineDuncanmabcc -         YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@catherineduncanmabcc -         Website - https://www.catherineduncan.org   Everyday Awakening with Catherine Duncan is a journey into our heart and soul and oneness with the Universe.
  • We Are Not Alone with Jacob Cooper, LCSW 18.05.2026 50min
    We can start anew every day, but are you truly living, or just going through the motions?     What if you already knew what happens when we die? At just three years old, Jacob Cooper crossed over, and came back with answers most of us spend a lifetime searching for. In this episode, he shares intimate details of life on the other side and what that experience revealed about the energy that's inside all of us.     We explore the deeper questions: What is our life force, really? What are you tuning into each day, and is it lifting you or pulling you under? What actually drives the choices you make and the life you're building?     Jacob L. Cooper, LCSW is a bestselling author of Life After Breath and The Wisdom of Jacob's Ladder, a Near-Death Experience survivor, and a sought-after speaker on mental health, spirituality, and consciousness.

  • Living on Purpose with Richard Leider 04.05.2026 1h
    Purpose isn't something you find, it's something you practice. It lives beyond the self, functioning less like a destination and more like a verb that shapes how we move through each day. At its core, purpose is foundational to life itself, and unlocking it begins with a single, honest question: What is life asking of me now?     The answer requires us to say yes to life, even when it's hard. Suffering, rather than something to escape, is a stimulus for awakening, one that invites us to become more reflective, to take more risks, and to remember that mattering matters. When we stop shrinking and start showing up fully, we step into the deeper truth that we are here to serve.     A good life isn't complicated. It's living from the place you love, with the people you love, doing the work you love with purpose.     Richard Leider is an internationally bestselling author of twelve books, including three bestsellers translated into 20 languages, and a pioneering voice in the global purpose movement whose PBS Special, The Power of Purpose, has reached millions across the U.S. Ranked by Forbes as one of the top five most respected coaches in the world, Richard is the founder of Inventure – The Purpose Company, a firm dedicated to helping individuals live, work, and lead on purpose.     If you are wondering why you are here, what is life asking of me now, this episode is a must-listen.      If this conversation moves you, subscribe to Everyday Awakening on iTunes and leave a review — it helps more seekers find their way here.     LEARN MORE ABOUT Richard Leider   Website: https://richardleider.com/   Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=richard+leider   JOIN MY COMMUNITY   -         Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/catherineduncanmabcc/ -         Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/CatherineDuncanmabcc -         YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@catherineduncanmabcc -         Website - https://www.catherineduncan.org   Everyday Awakening with Catherine Duncan is a journey into our heart and soul and oneness with the Universe.
  • Step into Divine Consciousness with Sebastian Siegel 20.04.2026 1h 9min
    In this soul-stirring conversation, I sit down with Sebastian Siegel to explore the nature of consciousness and what it means to show up fully in your own life. Sebastian offers a reframe: consciousness isn't something we have — it's a resonance we inhabit. And in our deepest relationships, something greater moves through the other person toward us. Love, he suggests, isn't just a feeling — it's a living stream, a vehicle through which we fully encounter life.   If you've ever felt the ache of moving through your days half-asleep, this episode is your invitation to wake up.   Sebastian Siegel is a British-American director, author, and depth psychology therapist whose work sits at the intersection of art, story, and the human soul. He wrote, produced, and directed Grace & Grit, the acclaimed feature film adapted from Ken Wilber's true story. His 51-episode series The Eight Questions is streaming on YouTube, and his recent TEDx Pacific talk is well worth your time.   If this conversation moves you, subscribe to Everyday Awakening on iTunes and leave a review — it helps more seekers find their way here.   LEARN MORE ABOUT Sebastian Siegel   Website: http://www.sebastiansiegel.com/   Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sebastiansiegel1/   JOIN MY COMMUNITY   -         Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/catherineduncanmabcc/ -         Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/CatherineDuncanmabcc -         YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@catherineduncanmabcc -         Website - https://www.catherineduncan.org   Everyday Awakening with Catherine Duncan is a journey into our heart and soul and oneness with the Universe.
  • Coming Home to Yourself with Annette Knopp 06.04.2026 55min
    Have you ever paused long enough to ask — why am I here? In this deeply reflective conversation, meditation teacher, somatic educator, and mystic Annette Knopp invites us back to one of life's most profound questions: how do we heal the parts of ourselves that have been waiting for our attention?   Annette shares how mindfulness opens the inner space we need to turn toward those unhealed places — with presence, curiosity, and compassion. Healing, she reminds us, isn't something we find outside of ourselves. It has been within us all along. And when we do the quiet, courageous work of going inward, we naturally become a steadier presence for those around us too — holding the rope, as she puts it, so others can find their own way back.   This episode is an invitation to recognize your own "okayness" — to peel back the layers, return to yourself, and rediscover your soul.    Annette and her husband Stephan are the founders of Blue Spirit, a renowned retreat center in Costa Rica. She is the author of the newly released book Mystic Nomad.   We are all on an awakening journey.   Tune in to Everyday Awakening and Subscribe on iTunes and leave a review to help others discover this transformative conversation.   LEARN MORE ABOUT Annette Knopp   Website: https://www.annetteknopp.com/   Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/annette.knopp/   JOIN MY COMMUNITY   -         Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/catherineduncanmabcc/ -         Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/CatherineDuncanmabcc -         YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@catherineduncanmabcc -         Website - https://www.catherineduncan.org   Everyday Awakening with Catherine Duncan is a journey into our heart and soul and oneness with the Universe.

In this episode, I sit down with Rachel McCord—media entrepreneur, TV personality, author, and founder of The McCord List Media Network, as well as creator and host of the nationally syndicated show The McCord List, reaching over 44 million households. We explore how trauma and PTSD can become pathways to purpose when we learn to listen within. Rachel shares her journey—from a difficult childhood marked by abuse and instability to a life-altering open-heart surgery that awakened her to the sacredness of being alive. Through it all, she found faith in God—and that faith saved her life. You are not alone. May her story remind you of that—and inspire you, as it did me.

  • The Most Powerful Anxiety Cure with Dr. Richard Louis Miller 09.03.2026 1h
    I sat down with Dr. Richard Louis Miller—clinical psychologist, author, and broadcaster with more than 64 years of experience in mind-body health. His recent book, Master Your Mind, offers a step-by-step path for moving from living on autopilot to consciously shaping your life - shifting from anxiety to greater peace.  In this conversation, we explore how we can shift from living in anxiety to discovering greater peace, ease, and breathing room in your daily life. Richard has deeply mastered the practice of conscious breathing. During a near-death experience, focusing on his breath quite literally saved his life. His work reminds us that healing and awakening arise when psychological insight, embodied health, and expanded consciousness come together. At the heart of his teaching is a simple but powerful truth: when we step back and observe our thoughts and emotions with awareness, we gain the power to change our lives.

  • Where Presence Lives, Fear Cannot 22.02.2026 6min
    In uncertain times, fear can quietly take over—pulling us into the past or projecting us into the future. But life is only ever happening now. In this episode, I explore how returning to the present moment softens the body, steadies the mind, and loosens fear's grip.  Through a tender lesson from my 97-year-old mother—I reflect on what it means to live in trust rather than anxiety. Presence doesn't require us to fix everything. It simply asks us to be here. And where presence lives, fear cannot stay. Listen now and feel more grounded, and present.

  • Healing Lives in the Body 13.12.2025 7min
    We often turn to therapy when we feel unsettled—and therapy is valuable. But talking can only take us so far. The truth is, our past experiences live in our body, not just our mind.  In this solo episode, Catherine shares a personal moment that revealed just how deeply our past lives in the body. While therapy offers insight, the real shift happens when we turn inward, breathe, and allow long-held emotions to release. She explores: • Why true healing is body-based • How childhood wounds live in our nervous system • What happens when we finally let ourselves feel • Somatic practices that help us soften and let go This episode is an invitation to pause, breathe, and reconnect with the steady, quiet life within you. Healing begins in the body—and it's available right now.

  • Awakening through Trauma with Dr. John King 01.12.2025 49min
    At 45 years old, Dr. John King's life cracked open when suppressed memories of being trafficked as a child resurfaced - sending him into a profound personal reckoning. Instead of running from the pain, John chose to face it head-on. What followed was a long, courageous journey of healing, recovery, and awakening. In this powerful conversation, John shares how trauma doesn't have to define who you become. As he says, "I was never a victim. I have always been an overcomer. If I can make it, so can you." He speaks openly about how the scars we carry - especially the ones marked by shame - can become symbols of honor and strength. John brings a lifetime of hard-earned wisdom. He is an author, poet, activist, and founder of the Give Them a Voice Foundation, which he launched in 2015 to advocate for survivors of abuse, trafficking, and PTSD. His poetry collection, No Working Title, offers a raw, evolving portrait of a life reclaimed.

  • Why Your Childhood Nudges Still Matter 24.11.2025 9min
    In this episode, I share a full-circle moment that unfolded while helping my 97-year-old mother transition into a group home. Among her things, I discovered a cassette tape labeled "Catherine's Senior Assembly Speech." At 18, I stood in front of my school speaking about not taking life for granted—wisdom born from facing dying at age 11. Listening back decades later, three messages still ring true: Life is here and now. Don't take this moment for granted. Being alive is a gift. These early truths shaped my path—even after a long detour through the corporate world—and eventually led me back to theology, chaplaincy, and the work I do today. In this episode, I invite you to pause and turn inward: What is stirring inside you? What is your soul whispering? Can you feel the preciousness of this moment? We are all being guided. The real question is: How do you experience that guidance within yourself?

  • How Human Connection Reshapes our Biology with Dr. Ben Rein 16.11.2025 49min
    l loved this conversation with Ben Rein - Ben Rein, PhD is an award-winning neuroscientist, Adjunct Lecturer at Stanford University, Clinical Assistant Professor at SUNNEY Buffalo, and Chief Science Officer of the Mind Science Foundation. Ben has published over 20 peer-reviewed papers studying the neuroscience of social behavior and is the author of new book Why Brains Need Friends: The Neuroscience of Social Connection.  In this episode, we explore why connection and friendship matter - and the neuroscience that proves it. Our bodies are actually rewarded when we're with others, while isolation triggers a stress response. Face-to-face connection isn't optional; it's essential. Ben's research shows that we can form new, positive neural pathways throughout our lives. Human connection doesn't just feel good - it reshapes our biology and helps us live longer.

  • Midlife Awakening: Living From Your Soul with Ashley Turner 04.11.2025 53min
    This week, I sat down with Ashley Turner - licensed psychotherapist, yoga and meditation expert, and psychedelic therapist. Ashley's mission is to reshape the narrative around menopause and midlife, helping women thrive through this profound threshold of initiation -  and guiding men to awaken to their true nature. Her work empowers you to reclaim your voice, vitality, and vision in midlife and beyond. Together, we explored what it truly means to heal - mind, body, and spirit. Healing is not a destination but an integration and an opening. Can you live from your soul and trust that the journey itself is the destination? This episode is an invitation to pause, reflect, and ask yourself: Am I following my soul's calling? If you're ready to heal, awaken, and deepen inwardly, this conversation is a must-listen.
