• 1288. TOMS Founder Blake Mycoskie's 5 Daily Practices That Rebuilt His Life After Depression 03.06.2026 34хв

  Hey, Heal Squad! We’re back with Part 2 of our chat with TOMS founder Blake Mycoskie.  After years of depression and feeling disconnected from himself, Blake realized something surprising: the life he had built no longer matched the person he really was. In this conversation, he shares the exercise that helped him identify where he was living out of alignment, why he traded a lifestyle that looked successful on paper for one that actually felt authentic, and how learning to stop performing for the world helped him reconnect with himself. Maria and Blake also get into one of the biggest questions we should all be asking ourselves: Are we living the life we truly want—or the life we think we're supposed to want? Together, they talk about why turning 40 can be the perfect time to reevaluate everything, from where you live and who you surround yourself with to how you define success, happiness, and purpose. You'll also hear some of the lighter moments from Blake's healing journey—including the story behind his new "You Are Enough" tattoo, why Matthew McConaughey challenged him to take himself out on a solo dinner date, and the simple practices that help keep him grounded today.This episode is packed with 5 daily practices to build a life that feels like yours.  They also dive into the lessons Blake is learning from guests on his new podcast No Magic Pill, the daily practices that keep him grounded, and his new movement We Are ENOUGH. Enjoy! HEALERS & HEAL LINERS 5 ways to live in alignment with who you really are. Use an alignment journaling exercise, take yourself out to dinner, establish a morning routine, wear a daily reminder (bracelet, tattoo, object you can see), repeat the "I am enough" mantra meditation Loneliness at the top isn't about success—it's about disconnection. The more we perform for validation, the less connected we become to ourselves and the people around us. Healing often requires rebuilding. From where you live to who you spend time with, Blake explains why real transformation sometimes means having the courage to start over.

• 1287. TOMS Founder Blake Mycoskie on Battling Depression + His 40-Day Meditation Practice 02.06.2026 25хв

  Hey, Heal Squad! Today, Maria sits down with Blake Mycoskie, the founder of TOMS Shoes…ya know… the company that helped change social entrepreneurship forever! Blake built TOMS into a global movement... giving 100 million pairs of shoes to children in need and helping create the "buy one, give one" model that reshaped how a generation thinks about business. From the outside, it looked like he had it all, but behind the scenes, Blake was quietly battling depression. He was disconnected from his purpose, and forced to confront a painful truth: even after achieving everything he thought would make him happy, he still didn't feel enough. At his lowest point, he came close to ending his life. In this incredibly honest conversation with Maria , Blake opens up about the hidden pressure of success and why so many high achievers tie their self-worth to what they accomplish. He shares how dark things became, the moment he realized he needed help, and the surprising practice that helped him begin to rewire decades of negative beliefs and start healing from the inside out. Maria and Blake also explore a concept that will stay with you long after this episode ends: the difference between performing and truly connecting. Together, they unpack why success can sometimes leave us feeling more disconnected than ever, how to recognize when you're chasing validation instead of fulfillment, and why so many people quietly struggle with purpose, identity, and feeling "not enough." They also touch on Blake's new movement, We Are ENOUGH, his mission to support mental health, and what he's learning through the vulnerable conversations he's having on his new podcast, No Magic Pill. This is one of the most honest conversations we've had about depression, so please listen with care. And remember,  if you or someone you love is struggling, call or text 988, the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline. HEALERS & HEAL LINERS You can never do enough to be enough. It has to come from within: Healing began when Blake stopped trying to earn his worth through accomplishments and started believing he was already worthy. Ask yourself: Am I connecting or am I performing?: One of Blake's biggest breakthroughs was recognizing that genuine connection gives him energy, while constantly performing for others leaves him depleted. Success can become a coping mechanism. Blake realized that achievement, money, impact, and recognition were never going to heal the deeper belief that he wasn't enough.

• 1286. How Slow Peeing, Quitting Nail Polish & A Car Organization Hack Improved Maria’s Health + Happiness 01.06.2026 38хв

  Hey Heal Squad! Maria is back with another (insert jingle!) -What Worked This Week! And honestly today is all about the little things that unexpectedly made a big difference…and some may surprise you! First up: the clean perfume that's bringing fragrance back into Maria's life. After giving it up (hello toxins!) Maria found Michelle Pfiffer’s brand - Henry Rose - and it's totally working and totally clean! Then, a confession that may shock anyone who loves a fresh manicure: Maria has been nail polish-free for over a year. The reason why? Well, it’s  about way more than beauty and she's convinced it's given her back time, money, and healthier nails. Also on the list: "slow pees." Yes, really. Our conversation with pelvic floor expert -Sarah Reardon completely changed the way Maria thinks about bathroom habits, and the results have been surprisingly life-changing. Bonus! Kev makes a surprise appearance to answer a very important pee-related question. Next, if you're a parent (or know someone who is! ), Maria shares the simple car organization hack she wishes someone had told her years ago—one that instantly eliminated the giant, overstuffed diaper bag struggle. Plus, party-hosting centerpiece shortcuts you'll want to steal immediately and finally, Maria opens up about her “abundance prayer” that's been transforming her mindset, helping her navigate challenges, and leading to some truly undeniable moments she says she can't ignore. The conversation even sparks a bigger question: Should Heal Squad launch a faith-based Sunday show? Let us know friends and enjoy this one!

• Sunday Set Up Ep. 39: The Exhaustion of Being “The Strong One” 31.05.2026 35хв

  Happy Sunday! Welcome to Heal Squad’s The Sunday Set Up. Life lessons to help you start the week. This week, we’re talking about the hidden exhaustion that comes from being “the strong one” — the builder, the fixer, the overgiver, the person everyone quietly depends on until one day you realize no one sees how much you’ve actually been carrying. We explore the emotional swing so many high-functioning people live inside: the shame of feeling like you haven’t done enough… followed by the resentment of knowing how much you actually have done. The ache of wondering if your sacrifices mattered. The exhaustion of being useful to everyone while secretly feeling unseen yourself. We talk about caregivers, creatives, entrepreneurs, parents, and “builders with no boundaries” — people who learned to earn love, safety, and worth through usefulness. And what happens when over-functioning stops bringing fulfillment, acknowledgment, or peace. This week’s Sunday Set Up is about understanding that resentment is often grief wearing armor. Grief for unseen effort, unmet needs, unreturned loyalty, and the version of yourself that got abandoned while trying to hold everything together. We discuss why disappearing can sometimes feel easier than asking for help, setting boundaries, slowing down, or rebuilding life differently — and why there are healthier ways forward. Remember, your worth is not measured solely by what you produce, fix, or carry for others. You are allowed to rest. You are allowed to need. You are allowed to matter too. Have a beautiful week, Heal Squad.

• Potluck Saturday: Bob Dylan, Elvis & Staying the Same For Others (at the Cost of You) 30.05.2026 48хв

  This week on Potluck Saturday, Kev explores the deeper meaning behind some of music’s greats! Using Bob Dylan's infamous decision to go electric as a jumping-off point, he examines why growth, reinvention, healing, authenticity, and setting boundaries often come with an unexpected cost: upsetting the people around you. Why the world can love you—right up until you stop being who they emotionally needed you to be. And why constantly managing other people's expectations can become one of the most exhausting jobs you'll ever have. Kev also contrasts Dylan's story with Elvis's, looking at how one man seemed willing to be misunderstood while the other became trapped inside an image he could never escape. Along the way, he unpacks the hidden dangers of people-pleasing, over-performing, and carrying everyone else's emotional needs while slowly losing touch with your own. The conversation expands into where social media has turned many of us into our own public relations teams—branding, filtering, curating, and performing carefully crafted versions of ourselves for approval. Why so many people aren't really living anymore—they're managing perception. Why success, visibility, and admiration don't heal old wounds, but often magnify them. And why burnout happens when your soul and your role stop matching. Plus, a reflection on the fine line between selfishness and self-protection, why loved ones can sometimes resist the version of you that finally becomes free, and how it's possible to become so loved publicly that you quietly disappear privately. Most importantly, Kev explores the idea that the goal isn't perfection. In a world obsessed with flawless images and certainty, real growth comes from embracing contradiction, integrating your flaws, doing the shadow work, and allowing yourself to evolve. Because maybe the real achievement isn't becoming untouchable—it's becoming fully human.

• LGF Ep. 275 The Price of Letting Go 29.05.2026 38хв

  Hey Regular Guys and Gals, today Kev explores why losing money on a sale, a possession, or even giving something away can feel like losing a piece of yourself. For builders, caretakers, providers, and anyone who's spent years holding it all together, possessions often become more than objects—they become containers for memories, sacrifice, hard work, and identity. That's why some transactions aren't really financial at all. They're emotional. They're energetic. Kev also unpacks why taking a loss can trigger so much guilt, especially for people who were taught to see every setback as a personal failure. He dives into the psychic weight objects can carry, the hidden cost of holding on too tightly, and why clinging to the past can quietly stall momentum, growth, and even your future. Along the way, he reflects on a powerful truth: sometimes losing money is actually buying peace, mobility, closure, dignity, and emotional freedom. Sometimes the sale isn't about profit—it's about release. Plus, why healing often begins with letting go of old clothes, furniture, storage units, unfinished projects, outdated identities, and long-held resentments. Why the nervous system may scream, "You failed," while something deeper whispers, "Finally... movement." And how life isn’t accounting software — and sometimes the thing that looked expensive becomes liberation. How the real value may not be what you got back financially… but what the release allowed back into your life Bye Betches — and we'll talk shortly.

• 1285. The #1 Advice for When Life Gets Really Hard w/ Maha Abouelenein 28.05.2026 37хв

  Hey Heal Squad! This Throwback Thursday episode with Maha Abouelenein is full of the kind of advice that makes you rethink the way you approach work, success, relationships, and even hard seasons in life. Maha, a global communications strategist who’s worked with brands like Google and Netflix,  breaks down why creating value for others will always take you further than ego, titles, or chasing quick success. Maria, Kev, and Maha get into work ethic, humility, resilience, caregiving, and the mindset shifts that helped Maha build an incredible career while also caring for both of her parents through MS and ALS. They talk about how to stop letting your ego block opportunities, why the “small things” are often the big things, how to become someone people trust and remember, and what it actually means to be self-reliant without trying to do everything alone. This episode will challenge the way you think about success, purpose, leadership, and what you’re truly capable of when life asks more of you than you ever expected!

• 1284. Healing Success Wounds: How To Stop Tying Your Worth to Work w/ Brooke Taylor 27.05.2026 34хв

  Hey, Heal Squad! We’re back with Brooke Tyalor, author of the new book,Healing the Success Wound, and while yesterday was  the diagnosis, today's episode is the prescription. Brooke is giving us the actual framework to heal our success wounds, the 4 levels you have to work through (emotional, mental, behavioral, and spiritual) and the 3 pillars to redefine success on YOUR terms instead of the world's scoreboard. We get into the fascinating science of why women's nervous systems run on oxytocin and men's run on dopamine, and how we’re literally not wired for hustle culture the same way. Maria gets vulnerable about becoming a "human doing" instead of a "human being," and Brooke drops the line that's going to live in your head rent-free: "My value comes from my being and not my doing!” So, so good! This episode  is a roadmap. Save it, screenshot it, send it to your group chat. Enjoy HEALERS & HEAL LINERS Healing a success wound happens on 4 levels. Brooke breaks it down: emotional (feel what you've been outrunning), mental (rewire the story that worth = output), behavioral (change how you actually show up day-to-day), and spiritual (reconnect to something bigger than your résumé).  Redefine success on your terms by your values, your core states of being, and your purpose. Stop using the world's scoreboard. Brooke's 3 pillars give you a new one: what you value, how you want to feel (peace, joy, presence — not just "successful"), and what you believe you're here for.  You can still be ambitious — just from wholeness, not wounding. This isn't about quitting your dreams. As Brooke says, "our ambition has two power sources — our wounding and our wholeness." Same drive, completely different fuel. One burns you out. The other fills you up. You get to choose which one you're running on.

• 1283. Why You Never Feel Like Enough: The 3 Roots of a Success Wound w/ Brooke Taylor 26.05.2026 32хв

  Hey, Heal Squad! Today's episode dives into the hidden emotional patterns so many high achievers are carrying… and why success still doesn’t feel like enough.Yup, this episode is for all of us who have crushed those work goals, hit a promotion, but yet,  weirdly still feels empty on the other side of it. Brooke Taylor…a career coach, former Google leader, and author of Healing the Success Wound  unpacks why so many of us (especially high-achieving women) tie our self-worth to our output and end up burned out, anxious, and chasing a finish line that keeps moving. Brooke breaks down what a "success wound" actually is, the three roots of where it comes from (hint, hint...it's cultural, psychological, and emotional), and why your childhood gold stars might still be running your nervous system today. She also gets real about her own rock-bottom moment: sexual harassment at Google, her dad's terminal cancer diagnosis, and getting sober at 24, all in the same month. But from that. Brooke shares the first thing that truly began healing her own success wounds and why redefining success may be the key to finally feeling fulfilled. If you’ve ever felt like no matter how much you accomplish it’s still not enough… this episode is going to hit home. HEALERS & HEAL LINERS A success wound = when you only feel valuable when you're achieving. Brooke calls it the "empty cup." Every win you pour in (the promotion, the money, the applause) drains right back out because the cup itself is cracked.  There are 3 roots of the success wound: Cultural ( we were trained to measure our worth by what we produce), Psychological (childhood taught us that love and approval are earned by performing), Emotional (we lost touch with who we are underneath what we do) Awareness is where the healing starts.

• 1282. Maria’s Results From Cutting Dairy, 3 Nervous System Reset Tips + A Flossing Hack! 25.05.2026 41хв

  Hey Heal Squad! SO many beautiful, unexpected, emotional, magical things happened this week and we cannot wait to tell you all about them. First up… we’re finally breaking down everything that happened at our very first Heal Squad Day of Reset,  and let’s just say, the last-minute pivots ended up becoming the biggest miracles of the day. We get into the emotional moments from the event, including the powerful Yoga Nidra and ecstatic dance sessions that had people crying, releasing emotions, reconnecting with joy, and honestly just letting YEARS of heaviness leave their bodies. Maria also opens up about the unexpected messages she received during meditation and the huge lesson she learned about finally leaving the guilt behind and taking care of herself too.. And yes, somehow Maria’s self-driving Tesla also became part of the nervous system healing journey.  Then we shift into some very real health revelations. Maria shares how removing dairy and inflammatory foods from her diet completely changed her body…reducing inflammation, bloating, puffiness…even cellulite. She gets super honest about the symptoms she thought were “normal” and what finally helped her start feeling like herself again. Oh! And somehow we also spiral into a hilarious but life-changing conversation about flossers… because apparently we’ve all been flossing wrong this whole time. Basically, this episode feels like one giant catch-up session … full of breakthroughs, laughs, nervous system resets..basically the reminders we all probably need this week. Enjoy!

• Sunday Set Up Ep. 38:  6th Grade Graduation Ceremonies and Gratitude  24.05.2026 1год 8хв

  Happy Sunday, Heal Squad! On this Sunday Setup, we explore transitions, perspective, and why change can feel so much bigger than we expect. We talk sixth grade graduations, childhood milestones, and the emotions that come with leaving behind something familiar — even when something new is waiting ahead. We talk about how sensitive people experience the world differently. How some kids feel every ending deeply. How moving into a new chapter can bring anxiety, grief, excitement, and fear all at once. And how sometimes what looks dramatic on the surface is really someone trying to process change in real time. We talk about resilience, education, and how not everyone fits inside the same system. How some people are creative, emotional, structured, or wired differently than the traditional path allows for. How responsibility and discipline still matter, but so does recognizing people for who they actually are instead of forcing everyone into the same mold. We talk about perspective and modern complaining culture. How easy it is to spiral into negativity and lose sight of what’s still good. How comfort can quietly become an expectation. And why Rex Trailer could take Americans on a trip today for perspective! Talk Shawtly!

• Potluck Saturday: Why Social Media is Fake, Burnout is Real & "Fighting" Life and Illness May Be Hurting You 23.05.2026 33хв

  This week on Pot Luck Saturday, Kev and Kelsey get real about social media, burnout, wellness overload, and the exhausting pressure to look like you have it all together online. They talk about how influencer and celebrity life is often just a highlight reel — while the stress, anxiety, health struggles, financial pressure, and emotional burnout stay hidden behind the scenes. From Hollywood and podcasting to trolls, comparison culture, and mental health, this episode is a reminder that comparing your real life to someone else’s curated feed can quietly steal your peace. The conversation also turns toward health culture, self-help overload, mold toxicity, supplements, red light therapy, nervous system burnout, chronic stress, autoimmune struggles, and why modern wellness culture can sometimes become counterproductive. Kev shares why he thinks healing may actually come from doing less: more rest, more sunlight, more laughter, more simplicity, and finally listening to what your body is trying to say. Plus: the truth about influencer money, why so many successful people are secretly exhausted, hustle culture vs. rest, healing and emotional resilience, and why joy matters way more than appearances. It’s funny, honest, chaotic, thoughtful… and honestly feels like the kind of conversation everyone needs right now. If you enjoy Pot Luck Saturday, please leave a review on Apple Podcasts and share the show with someone who needs to hear this.

• RGF Ep. 274 Kelsey Is Back! She Sheds, Burnout & Updating Your Operating System 22.05.2026 58хв

  Happy Friday, Regular People — Kelsey is back, the Queens are reunited, and somehow we go from vitamin C powder and whole milk to emotional survival, nervous-system burnout, and why every adult secretly needs a shed to escape humanity. We get into how modern life has basically everyone stuck in fight-or-flight mode, and how Kelsey’s healer traced her anxiety, exhaustion, and vagus nerve issues back to something surprisingly simple: she wasn’t nourishing herself enough. Not emotionally. Not physically. Not in any real sustainable way. Which led to a bigger conversation about how sometimes the answer isn’t another supplement, guru, or podcast episode. Sometimes it’s sleep. Water. Structure. Laughter. Slowing down long enough to actually feel like a person again. Plus, why Kelsey may officially need her own “operating system update.” We also spiral into the world of Regular Guy health hacks — from oregano oil and local honey to bee pollen and whole milk making a comeback — while Kev questions whether society has completely lost the plot somewhere along the way. And underneath all the chaos is a very real conversation about why so many successful people are secretly running on fumes. Then Kev takes us down a very passionate rabbit hole about campers, hideaways, man caves, “she sheds,” little nooks, crannies, and escape hatches — which honestly turns into a surprisingly deep conversation about survival, aging, relationships, and why quiet becomes priceless the older you get. Because even when you love your people… sometimes you still need a door you can close. We also talk about the emotional impact of the Heal Squad Reset event, the power of healing communities, and why people right now are craving connection, purpose, reinvention, and second chapters more than ever. Plus: Frontier Airlines survival tactics, celebrity burnout, narcissist “lolcows,” Dog & Pony updates, AfterBuzz nostalgia and whether it could come back bigger than ever, and Kev casually floating the idea of a live Regular Guy reboot workshop for anyone needing a reset.

• 1281. EMDR Explained: How to Heal Trauma Stored in the Body w/ Tammy Valicenti 21.05.2026 51хв

  Hey Heal Squad! After such a beautiful weekend at the Heal Squad Day of Reset, we had to bring back this incredibly powerful conversation. Tammy Valicenti joined us in person at Day of Reset, and if you were moved by her there… just wait! In this throwback episode, Maria sits down with Tammy to unpack EMDR therapy, the trauma-healing modality that has helped so many people process PTSD, anxiety, panic, and deeply stored emotional pain in a totally different way than traditional talk therapy. Tammy breaks down what EMDR actually is (because yes, it can sound a little intimidating at first), how it helps the brain reprocess trauma, and why so many people see life-changing shifts in just a handful of sessions. They also get into how trauma doesn’t just live in our memories, it lives in the body… showing up in relationships, anxiety, hypervigilance, fear, and patterns we may not even realize are connected. Such an eye-opening conversation, especially if you’ve heard people talk about EMDR but never fully understood what it is or if it could help you!

• 1280. Faith Without Church? Zachary Levi on Purpose, AI's Threat to in Hollywood & Funding Therapy at $200 a Session 20.05.2026 58хв

  Hey Heal Squad! We are back with Part 2 of our conversation with Zachary Levi, and honestly… this one goes to some really unexpected places. Zach shares something that genuinely surprised Maria: despite having such a deep relationship with God, he doesn’t actually go to church. We get into why, what his spiritual practice really looks like, and how years of home Bible studies and chosen-family community became more meaningful to him than traditional religion ever did. From there, the conversation gets even deeper. Zach opens up about marriage, why his first marriage cracked him wide open emotionally, and why he and his partner are choosing commitment and partnership every single day without needing a certificate to define it. We also talk about the massive shift happening in Hollywood right now, the headlines claiming he’s been “graylisted,” and why he says the real story is much more complicated than people think. He shares why he believes the industry has become increasingly hostile to people who don’t fall in line politically or creatively,  and why that’s exactly why he’s spent decades dreaming up Wyldwood Studios: the studio and living community he believes could completely change the future of storytelling.And somehow we also get into AI, why it actually doesn’t scare him, and why he believes human connection, creativity, and community are about to become even more valuable. Plus, because it’s Mental Health Awareness Month, Zach talks about Nerd HQ and the nonprofit work he’s doing to help people access therapy who otherwise couldn’t afford it. As he says in this episode: the stigma isn’t the barrier anymore — the price tag is. Just a warning Zach gets into some heavy things, so please listen with care. HEALERS & HEAL LINERS You can't outrun your trauma: Zach said he spent decades performing — booking jobs, hitting marks, smiling on red carpets — while completely unaware that unprocessed childhood trauma was running the show underneath. Every breakdown is an invitation: Zach reframed his lowest moment not as punishment but as God's invitation to finally stop and listen. Church is the people. Healing is the practice. Faith is the next step:  Zach pushed back on the idea that church is a building or a denomination — he said church is the community you do the work alongside, the people who show up when you're falling apart.  HEAL SQUAD SOCIALS IG: https://www.instagram.com/healsquad/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@healsquadxmaria HEAL SQUAD RESOURCES: Heal Squad Website:https://www.healsquad.com/ Heal Squad x Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/HealSquad/membership Maria Menounos Website: https://www.mariamenounos.com My Curated Macy’s Page: https://stylecrew.macys.com/@mariamenounos EMR-Tek Red Light: https://emr-tek.com/discount/Maria30 for 30% off Airbnb: https://www.airbnb.com/host GUEST RESOURCES: Follow Zach on IG: https://www.instagram.com/zacharylevi/ Radical Love:  https://www.amazon.com/Go-Love-Yourself-Radical-Acceptance/dp/0785236759 Wyldwood Studios: wyldwood.com  Nerd HQ: nerdhq.org ABOUT MARIA MENOUNOS: Emmy Award-winning journalist, TV personality, actress, 2x NYT best-selling author, former pro-wrestler and brain tumor survivor, Maria Menounos’ passion is to see others heal and to get better in all areas of life.

• 1279. Zachary Levi on the Mental Breakdown that Saved Him, Unhealed Trauma + Why Every Hardship Is God’s Invitation 19.05.2026 39хв

  Hey Heal Squad! Our friend Zachary Levi is back and honestly, this may be the most grounded and open we’ve ever heard him. He’s a brand-new dad, he’s building Wyldwood Studios from the ground up in Texas, and he’s going deeper into his faith, healing, and purpose than ever before. Zach takes us all the way back to being three years old and feeling, deep in his soul, that he was put here to make people laugh and help others. From there, we get into the bigger conversation so many people are quietly having right now: Why does it feel so hard to know what’s true anymore? Zach breaks down what he calls the two sides of finding truth: empathy and logic and why he believes we’ve lost the ability to really hear each other. But the heart of this episode is what happens when Zach opens up about his 2017 mental breakdown, the season where he didn’t want to live and didn’t understand why. He shares how therapy finally taught him something he’d never learned before: how to love himself. We talk about unresolved trauma, how emotional pain can actually live in the body, and why he now believes every hardship can become an invitation to heal, grow, and go deeper with God.And then he says something I honestly haven’t stopped thinking about since we recorded this: that we are “infinitely valuable… and entirely unimportant.” Trust us… you’re going to want to hear the way he explains that one. Enjoy! HEALERS & HEAL LINERS You can't outrun unhealed trauma. It lives in the body. It makes you sick on every level — physical, emotional, mental, spiritual — and it keeps showing up until you stop saying "I got it" and finally sit with what's actually there. Every hardship is an invitation. The breakdowns, the breakups, the moments that bring you to your knees — Zach believes those aren't punishment. They're God asking you to come closer. You are infinitely valuable, and entirely unimportant. You matter more than you'll ever know, AND you don't have to carry it all alone. Your only job is to take the next step.

• 1278. 8 Lifestyle Tweaks Maria Is Using To Calm Stress & Make Life Feel Easier 18.05.2026 39хв

  Hey Heal Squad! Today is another edition of What Worked This Week and honestly…this episode is kind of all over the place in the best way possible. Maria is fresh out of “newborn support mode” after helping friends with a new baby over Mother’s Day weekend, and the conversation turns into everything from emotional motherhood moments, to fashion finds, to nervous system resets, to the random life hacks currently making life easier. We’re talking about the Zara loafers rich girls are secretly buying instead of designer shoes, the travel sneakers she wears through airports, the warm neck pillow helping calm her nervous system at night, and why she’s embracing “paying for convenience” to reduce stress while traveling, parenting, and juggling life. She also gives a health update after her El Salvador trip, including stabilizing her insulin levels again and noticing how reducing stress may be helping her body overall. The bigger theme of this episode though? Making life feel lighter. Maria opens up about learning to “pay for convenience,” why perfection is overrated, and how protecting your peace sometimes means finding easier, softer ways to move through life. She also shares the gift idea she’s officially replacing flowers with after too many disappointing deliveries,  including the personalized gift card that made her brother cry and why astrology sessions, healer appointments, and meaningful experiences are becoming her new favorite presents to give people. It’s fun, practical, emotional (a little chaotic!) and we hope you love it!

• Sunday Set Up Ep. 38: Life Force Energy 17.05.2026 33хв

  Happy Sunday Set Up , Heal Squad! This week, we’re coloring outside the lines a little as we dive into life force energy, nervous-system depletion, psychic heaviness, and why so many people today feel emotionally, physically, and spiritually drained. Inspired by a recent biofeedback session, Keven explores what ancient traditions called Qi, Prana, or vital force—and how modern stress, burnout, overgiving, guilt, survival mode, and toxic environments may quietly be crushing it.  We break down the real signs your life force energy may be low: exhaustion that sleep can’t fix, emotional numbness, brain fog, hypervigilance, feeling spiritually “dim,” and constantly carrying everyone else’s emotions. From nervous-system regulation and breathwork to creativity, purpose, sunlight, boundaries, and peace, we explore what actually restores vitality—and why true healing may be a lot less mystical and a lot more human than we think. We even get a little woo woo. Psychic attack. Emotional contamination. Toxic people, moldy homes. hoarding, dark quarters, demonic energy - oh my!. This Sunday Set Up explores the strange ties to those items and loss of energy. And ultimately? Why opening a window, cleaning a room, speaking truth, setting boundaries, and reclaiming peace might be some of the oldest medicine there is. Remember Heal Squad: the opposite of darkness isn’t fear. It’s awareness. Breath. Light. Movement. Truth. Open the windows. Protect your peace. And reclaim your life force. Have a bright energetic week!

• Potluck Saturday: Kelsey Is Back! Jamie Pressley Joins OnlyFans & the Key Points Pundits Are Missing 16.05.2026 24хв

  Happy Saturday, Regular People — welcome to Potluck Saturday, where today we’re diving into OnlyFans, judgment, and why everyone seriously needs to calm down. This week, we unpack how Shannon Elizabeth and Jaime Pressly joining OnlyFans says less about scandal and more about where the entertainment business is headed. We talk about how fame doesn’t always equal financial security, why talent can outlive the paycheck system Hollywood was built on, and how going directly to your audience may be the future for creators everywhere. We also get into why judging other people drains your own energy, how women are still judged harder and punished faster, and why women who mirror behavior men have gotten away with for decades are suddenly labeled “difficult.” Plus, we explore how light can trigger darkness in other people, and why building your own world instead of waiting for approval may be the ultimate form of revenge. Potluck Bonus: Gary Coleman, Bhad Bhabie’s bag of cash, Dog & Pony Show shoutouts, keyboard warriors, whether women can sometimes be meaner than men, and Max the dog weighing in with facts.

• RGF Ep. 273: Kelsey Is Back! Queens, Redlines & Bees on the Balcony 15.05.2026 42хв

  Hey Regular Guys and Gals, we did it again. We made it through another week! Kelsey is back, the Queens anthem returns, and the dog-and-pony era is officially underway. This week, we dive into what happens when work, love, ambition, and friendship all collide while the metaphorical space shuttle is already taking off. We unpack why replacing “but” with “and” can completely shift your mindset, how the people who love you sometimes need to understand your redline seasons, and why protecting your fuel matters more than ever. Plus: why dogs, comfort TV, projectors, and staying JFF can genuinely save your soul. We also get into Hollywood’s shifting power structure, why the old gatekeepers are losing control, and how a more open playing field may actually create better art, fresher voices, and a more exciting industry. RGF Bonus: Kelsey’s Dog & Pony Show, Tony season trauma, bees as spiritual messengers, Blake/Justin discourse as old-school smut relief, favorite movie picks, and why sometimes the best way to stay connected to the people you love is to build something together.
