Meet Sarah Gorev, your guide to questioning everything you thought you knew about wellness. In this candid first episode, Sarah shares how breaking free from conventional wisdom led her to discover life-changing alternative practices - and why she's passionate about helping others do the same.

From embracing hypnobirthing in 2007 (when everyone told her she was crazy) to leaving a successful marketing career to pursue energy work and EFT, Sarah's story is about trusting your instincts when they collide with conventional advice. Her journey weaves through the mystical Beltane Fire Festival, finding unexpected love in Mexico, and discovering how ancient practices like meditation and energy healing can transform modern lives.

But this isn't just another wellness origin story. It's a manifesto for gentle revolution - a call to question the "shoulds" and "musts" of traditional wellbeing advice. Sarah explains her vision for the podcast: creating a judgment-free space where curiosity trumps convention, where ancient wisdom meets modern science, and where every listener is empowered to write their own wellness rules.

Whether you're dabbling in crystals but keeping them hidden in your desk drawer, curious about sound healing but skeptical it could work, or simply tired of one-size-fits-all wellness advice, this podcast promises real talk about alternative approaches that actually work - without the pretence, jargon, or pressure to conform.

Join Sarah each week for honest conversations with guests who've torn up the rulebook and found their own path to feeling good again. From energy healing and oracle cards to cold water swimming and human design, we're exploring it all - with plenty of laughs, aha moments, and absolutely zero judgment.

Perfect for the wellness rebel who:

Questions conventional wisdom about health and wellbeing
Seeks alternatives to mainstream wellness advice
Wants to explore complementary therapies without the woo-woo overwhelm
Believes there's no single "right way" to feel good
Is ready to write their own wellness story
