    Guy is one of the most amazing podcast hosts I have had the privilege of having a conversation with. His love for his work and knowledge radiates from within. He is curious, open and warm. Our conversation felt effortless and he is hands down one of the best podcasts out there and I have been on Many. I highly recommend listening to all of his episodes ❤️.

  • Phenomenal Mental Health Podcast

    I recently had the opportunity to be a guest on The Trauma Therapist Podcast, and it was one of the most enjoyable podcast experiences I’ve had.

    Guy is an exceptional host. He creates a relaxed, conversational atmosphere that makes it easy to share openly and naturally. Rather than rushing through a list of prepared questions, he truly listens. He followed my story thoughtfully, picked up on important details, and asked insightful questions that deepened the conversation in meaningful ways.

Reprogramming Consciousness with Masati
Q: When you say you help people by editing their frequency, what does that mean?
Mas Ati says he reads patterns formed by genetic, societal, and generational influences, then works to change what he calls a person's core programming through group hypermeditations or individual sessions.
Reprogramming Consciousness with Masati
Q: So what happened?
Mas Ati describes being injured while unloading a rail car at a warehouse. He says he experienced himself hovering outside his body, then returned and woke in the hospital with his jaw wired shut.
Guest Host Series Christina P. Kantzavelos interviews Karen Sprinkel
Q: What would you suggest for a client considering whether to pursue ketamine, EMDR, IFS, or SE as part of their healing journey?
Use a detailed assessment to identify whether they are more mentally, somatically, or spiritually oriented, then align with a clinician who has a strong trauma foundation and at least level-one training in a modality that matches their dominant healing pathway.
Guest Host Series Christina P. Kantzavelos interviews Karen Sprinkel
Q: If someone's starting out and they would like to be trauma and psychedelic informed, where would you guide them to head to first?
Begin with foundational trauma-informed training and choose at least one level-one modality (SE, EMDR, brain spotting, or IFS) while recognizing there is no single path; the important step is to start somewhere and then build from there.
Experiencing Trauma From The Other Side with Dr. Shan Shan Jing
Q: What was the most challenging part of healing after the accident and how did you navigate the healthcare system abroad?
She describes the chaos and fear of recovering in New Zealand, the delays in rehabilitation, and the importance of advocating for herself while leveraging a network of specialists to address physical, psychological, and spiritual needs.
