Trust, Transformation, and Living in the Question

Special Guest: Simone Milasas
Haider’s free workbook at https://soulful-awakening.com/free
 
In this episode, I sit down with Simone Milasas, a facilitator of Access Consciousness, to explore kindness, connection, and the transformative power of receiving. Simone shares profound insights on energy exchange, the generosity of spirit, and the importance of gratitude and presence in our lives.
We begin with Simone’s reflections on her deep connection with animals—particularly horses in Costa Rica—and how they taught her to build trust and overcome fear. Learning to ride horses bareback became a powerful metaphor for life: it required immense trust, self-awareness, and a willingness to push past fear.
Simone also opens up about a harrowing experience during a whitewater rafting accident in Costa Rica, where she was trapped underwater in grade four rapids. Her story is one of resilience—summoning the determination to survive and processing the trauma with raw vulnerability. This near-death experience became a pivotal moment, inspiring her to embrace life with renewed gratitude and zest.
The conversation flows into conscious living and the tools of Access Consciousness. Simone shares the importance of “living in the question,” staying curious, and asking whether choices contribute to your life. She opens up about her past relationship, highlighting the value of self-reflection, growth, and living authentically without regrets.
Simone also touches on societal expectations around relationships, marriage, and finances. Her pragmatic approach to money offers actionable wisdom on shifting limiting beliefs around abundance and debt. She reveals how our points of view shape our financial reality and explains how simple mindset changes can create lasting freedom.
A powerful theme throughout is the idea of allowance—accepting people and situations as they are without judgment. Simone shares her father’s profound advice: stop seeking understanding from those who can’t “get you.” Instead, allow others to be who they are and focus on living life on your terms.
Key Takeaways:
Allow others to be who they are without projecting expectations.
Ask yourself, “Who does this belong to?” when heavy emotions arise.
Your mindset determines your relationship with money, health, and life.
Choose trust, vulnerability, and curiosity to embrace life fully.
This episode is a heartfelt exploration of resilience, conscious living, and the beauty of embracing who you truly are.
 
 

Trauma, Love, and the Path to Emotional Freedom

Special Guest: Jennifer McLean
Healing Beyond Trauma: Jennifer McLean Unveils the Truth About Transformation You’ve Never Heard Before
What if everything you’ve been told about healing is only half the story? In this must-watch episode of The Human Potential Podcast, I sit down with internationally acclaimed healer, author, and creator of the Spontaneous Transformation Technique (STT), Jennifer McLean, to uncover the raw, untold truths about trauma, healing, and transformation.
Jennifer doesn’t shy away from the tough topics—starting with her own harrowing journey through childhood trauma, which she describes as hitting "minus 10." But instead of staying there, she turned that pain into profound wisdom, discovering that love is the ultimate frequency capable of rewriting even the darkest narratives.
We dive into the controversial idea that much of adult dysfunction stems from unresolved childhood patterns and false beliefs. Jennifer's STT method exposes these hidden wounds without retraumatizing, offering a safe but revolutionary approach to healing. You’ll learn why most self-help advice misses the mark—and how true transformation requires facing the uncomfortable truths about yourself.
But we don’t stop there. Jennifer takes on the heavy topic of ancestral healing, especially for white individuals reckoning with the inherited trauma of colonialism and slavery. How do we confront this collective shadow without falling into guilt or victimhood? Jennifer’s answers might surprise—and challenge—you.
Some of the most eye-opening moments include:
The real reason love is the most powerful healing force—and why most people struggle to align with it.
How victim consciousness subtly traps you in cycles of pain—and how to break free.
Why safety isn’t about avoidance but about reconnecting with your authentic power.
The provocative truth about how ancestral healing could change the energy of the world.
Jennifer also shares how STT bypasses the need for endless rehashing of trauma, allowing you to connect directly with the emotions of your inner child. This approach unlocks stuck energy, propels you forward, and even helps you attract abundance in ways you never thought possible.
Are you ready to challenge everything you think you know about healing? Tune in to discover the transformative power of love, the courage it takes to confront your past, and the tools to create a future grounded in safety, abundance, and true authenticity.

Lion-Hearted Wisdom: Restoring Balance with Nature's Guardians

Special Guest: Linda Tucker
Haider’s free workbook at https://soulful-awakening.com/free 
In this riveting episode of The Human Potential Podcast, I sit down with Linda Tucker, a trailblazing leader and the Protectress of Africa’s sacred white lions. Her journey from corporate success to becoming a guardian of these rare, symbolic animals began with a life-altering night in the African wilderness. Surrounded by a pride of lions and saved by a mysterious medicine woman known as the "Lion Queen of Timbavati," Linda’s perspective on life—and humanity’s role in nature—was forever transformed.
Breaking Illusions: Humanity as the True Threat
Linda recounts how that harrowing experience shattered her former worldview, revealing an uncomfortable truth: humans, not lions, are the real predators. This awakening drove her back to South Africa, where she discovered the white lions—symbols of spiritual evolution and guardians of Earth’s heart energy—facing extinction at the hands of trophy hunting and human greed.
LionHeartedness: A Call to Fearless Leadership
At the core of Linda’s mission is the philosophy of "LionHeartedness," defined as:"Fearlessness inspired by love and respect for the natural world, empowering us to transform our human world. It makes us unstoppable."This powerful mindset has shaped her work with the Global White Lion Protection Trust, dedicated to preserving these majestic creatures and their sacred habitat.
Exposing the Dark Side of Consumerism and Trophy Hunting
Our conversation doesn’t shy away from controversy. Linda sheds light on the exploitative practices of trophy hunting—an industry profiting from the destruction of lions and local communities alike. We explore the damaging effects of consumerism and how reconnecting with nature’s cycles can heal not only the Earth but also ourselves.
The White Lions: Guardians of Earth’s Heart Energy
As spiritual symbols, white lions hold the key to restoring balance to the planet. Linda urges humanity to move beyond exploitation, embrace humility, and lead from the heart. Her message is urgent: only by aligning with nature’s wisdom can we navigate the global crises we face today.
This episode is a call to action, challenging you to reconsider humanity’s place in the natural world and inspiring you to embody "LionHeartedness" in your own life. Are you ready to become unstoppable?

Special Guest: Jacob Liberman
Haider’s free workbook at https://soulful-awakening.com/free 
In this captivating episode of The Human Potential Podcast, we dive into a conversation that might just transform the way you see the world—literally. Jacob, the visionary author of The Luminous Life, unveils a provocative truth: light doesn’t just illuminate our path; it actively seeks us, drawing us toward deeper meaning and connection.
Here’s What You’ll Discover:
The Hidden Power of Light: Jacob challenges the conventional view of light, presenting it as the formless essence from which all life emerges. Is light the missing link between spirituality, science, and religion?
Your Eyes as Portals: Far more than tools for vision, our eyes are designed to respond to light in mysterious ways, reshaping our understanding of how we interact with the world.
"Doing Without Doing": How Einstein’s love of music unlocked the theory of relativity—and why true creation happens when we let go of control and flow with life’s inspirations.
Breaking Free from Mental Limits: Could your deeply held beliefs be the very thing holding you back? Jacob shares how vulnerability and connection can help us overcome suffering and embrace our truest selves.
Why This Episode Is a Must-Listen:
Jacob explores how intuition acts as a bridge to the invisible, connecting us through a shared field of light and awareness. Just as plants instinctively grow toward the sun, humans are naturally drawn to light—physically, emotionally, and spiritually. This episode isn’t just about science or philosophy; it’s about you and how you can align with the luminous energy of life to experience more ease, authenticity, and fulfillment.
A Conversation That Will Make You Question Everything:
Is "seeking the light" a flawed pursuit if the light is already seeking you?
Are you forcing life to happen, or are you letting it flow naturally?
Can you truly heal without breaking free from the mental stories that define you?
This is a deep, soulful, and mind-expanding conversation that will challenge what you think you know about light, life, and consciousness. Listen to discover how to stop chasing and start aligning with the energy that’s been waiting for you all along.

https://yiannismichael.com/panic-attacks-solution/
Ready to turn fear on its head? In this groundbreaking episode of the Human Potential Podcast, I sit down with holistic psychologist and wellness expert Yiannis Michael, who reveals a radical remedy for anxiety and panic attacks. Forget the outdated advice about “overcoming” fear—Yiannis challenges us to embrace it as our greatest strength. Having transformed his own life from fear paralysis to fear mastery, Yiannis now dedicates his work to helping others reclaim control over anxiety and panic.
Yiannis exposes the myths around panic and anxiety, offering a clear, empowering distinction between fear, panic, and anxiety. He shows us that fear often has a known trigger, anxiety is more generalized, and panic brings intense physical symptoms. With this understanding, you’ll gain the tools to manage each, rather than letting them control you.
In a powerful moment, Yiannis introduces the concept of Kintsugi, the Japanese art of mending broken pottery with gold, as a metaphor for transforming our emotional “cracks” into sources of resilience and beauty. Imagine healing so deeply that your past struggles become the golden veins of your strength. By reframing fear as a “passenger” rather than the “driver” of our lives, Yiannis teaches us to use fear as a guide rather than an obstacle.
Together, we dive into a new vision for society—a world where people are freed from fear-driven competition and embrace collaboration, kindness, and authenticity. With a growth mindset, Yiannis inspires listeners to see others' success as motivation, not intimidation, and to build a world where everyone thrives in their unique gifts.
