In this inspiring episode, we dive deep into the transformative journeys that shape our health and wellness practices. Our guest, Kyle, shares his unique story of self-discovery and growth, from competing in a grueling 24-hour race in the Las Vegas desert to discovering the power of breathwork and story work. Along the way, Kyle uncovers how breaking down the body can build up the mind, and how communication—especially the words we use—can reshape not only our relationships but our entire perspective on life.

Kyle also introduces his innovative therapeutic approach: neurolinguistic somatic experiencing or NLSE. This groundbreaking method integrates the body, mind, and language to address deep-seated emotional patterns, offering clients a unique way to unlock healing and achieve personal breakthroughs. We also explore the concept of the "wounded healer" and how personal struggles often spark the passion to help others heal. From blending active and passive mindfulness to gamifying self-betterment, this conversation challenges conventional approaches to health and wellness while offering actionable insights to help you on your journey.
