In this special solo reflection, Mary Black asks a question that goes far beyond patriotism:

👉 Are the choices you’re making today leading you toward greater freedom—or greater bondage?

As the U.S. celebrates its Independence Day, Mary invites us to explore what freedom truly means on a personal level—emotionally, financially, spiritually, and physically.

This short but potent episode is a wake-up call for anyone who:

• Wants to live more intentionally
• Feels stuck or at the mercy of their circumstances
• Struggles with “easy” decisions that slowly chip away at long-term freedom
• Believes that true independence starts with everyday choices

Mary reflects on:

• How the foundation of free enterprise can still empower us
• The difference between momentary comfort and lasting freedom
• Why self-leadership is the root of authentic independence
• How even our dinner plate can be an act of liberation

🎧 Tune in and ask yourself: Are my choices building the future I want—or keeping me bound to the past I’m trying to outgrow?

What if your symptoms weren’t in your head—but in your cells?

In this soul-deep, systems-breaking conversation, Mary Black is joined by Corry Lang, certified regenerative detoxification specialist, iridologist, and founder of Detox with Corry. After years of chronic pain, fatigue, and medical dismissal, Corry hit rock bottom—until a powerful spiritual moment sparked her healing journey.

In this episode, you’ll hear:

• Corry’s story of surviving (and healing) debilitating autoimmune-like symptoms
• How trauma, emotional stress, and toxic overload fuel chronic illness
• Why women are disproportionately affected—and what to do about it
• How iridology and cellular detox work (yes, your eyes can reveal what labs miss)
• The truth about Epstein-Barr, viruses, and the “mystery illnesses” doctors can’t name
• How herbs, nutrition, and personalized protocols can fully restore health
• The link between patriarchy, disempowerment, and chronic fatigue in women
• What true healing requires: intuition, connection, and reclaiming your personal power

Corry isn’t just talking science—she’s walking it. And her message is clear: You can heal. You can reclaim your vitality. You don’t have to stay sick.
