This episode is a call back to yourself — the grounded, powerful, wise part of you that already knows the way forward.

Today, I’m joined by Matthew Cooke — Executive Coach, Somatic Facilitator, Founder of Body-Based Breakthrough, and trauma-certified practitioner — to explore how reconnecting to your body’s wisdom isn’t just self-care… it’s leadership.

For over 15 years, Matthew has guided leaders from Apple, SpaceX, Google, and beyond to rise higher without burning out by learning to listen to the one voice that matters most: their own.

His work blends science-backed nervous system health, somatic intelligence, and leadership strategy into a grounded, heart-led approach to growth.

In a world obsessed with hustle and intensity, Matthew’s message is clear: your power lives in presence, not pressure.

🌿 In this soulful, moving episode, you’ll discover:

✅ How to quiet the noise of the world and hear your inner wisdom again

✅ Simple practices to reset your nervous system and return to calm

✅ Why true leadership begins in the body, not the boardroom

✅ The difference between surviving your purpose and thriving in it

✅ How small, consistent moments of presence can change your entire life

✅ A new way to hold space for yourself, your work, and your community

This episode will change how you see failure, pain, and rock bottom forever.

Today, I sit down with Akshay Nanavati—a U.S. Marine turned polar explorer, author of Fearvana, and a man who has overcome PTSD, addiction, survivor’s guilt, and the brink of suicide—to teach you how to save yourself when everything feels lost.

You’re not broken. You’re becoming.

Akshay’s life is proof that your pain is not the end—it’s the initiation. From dragging 190 pounds across Antarctica solo for 60 days, to spending 10 days alone in total darkness, Akshay has made peace with his demons and turned them into purpose.

This isn’t a motivational talk. This is a blueprint for rebirth—one rooted in pain, heart, and resilience.

💥 In this raw, powerful episode, you’ll learn:

• Why your “rock bottom” might be the most sacred moment of your life
• What the phrase “the storm is the summit” really means
• How to take the first step out of the pit (even if you’re still drinking, grieving, or breaking down)
• The psychology of struggle: why pain doesn’t mean you’re failing
• How to stop seeing suffering as the enemy—and start using it as fuel
• The one mindset shift that will change how you approach every challenge from here on out

The Revolutionary Science of How to Turn Fear into Health, Wealth and Happiness
