In this episode, Raj speaks with Sarah Spears about her journey of healing from an eating disorder using emotional release techniques. With over a decade of experience as a licensed therapist, eating psychology coach, EFT practitioner, and certified reiki master, Sarah intimately understands the mind-body connection and has leveraged her journey of recovering from an eating disorder into a passion for helping others achieve freedom from their pain.
A few things they discuss:
How tapping into long-buried emotions finally enabled Sarah to break free from years of secret bulimia after failed attempts to control her compulsions.Why we emotionally eat and abuse substances - the childhood origins of losing touch with our feelings.The unexpected mental, physical and spiritual shifts Sarah began experiencing when she found the courage to express anger for the first time.How fully feeling rather than feeding our feelings opens conduits to self-trust, embodiment and unconditional self-love.Where mindfulness reaches its limit - and how Sarah accessed radical new dimensions of joy and creativity by connecting to her Highest Self.Sarah guides people to break free from the food addiction cycle by discovering the emotional roots perpetuating their issues and developing skills to healthfully feel, express and release pent up energies for good. This episode offers an integrative approach addressing mind, body and spirit simultaneously so we can transform our inner worlds and outward habits for lasting change.

On this week’s episode, Raj speaks with transformation coach Alyeria Faith about how we can learn to trust our body's innate wisdom when it comes to healing from emotional wounds and trauma.
Alyeria shares her powerful personal journey of moving through childhood attachment wounds and freeing herself from the binds of past pain. She beautifully articulates how when we can meet our challenging emotions with non-judgment and compassion, we allow space for repressed energy and trauma to move through us, bringing heightened alignment and expansion.
Tune into this soul-stirring conversation to discover:
Why emotions are not obstacles, but gateways waiting to reveal truths about ourselves in their own unique language.Practices like prayer and conscious "pausing" that help rupture the illusion of limitation created by our survival-based minds.The incredible difference between healing from a space of lack versus one of empowered wholeness.Simple but profound tools to help anchor in presence, cultivate courage, expand inner freedom.If you find yourself constantly struggling upstream against feelings you just can't shake or pain that continues its haunting echoes through relationships and daily life, this is an absolutely essential listen. Let Alyeria be your guide to finally coming home in yourself - body, mind and soul.

We all have parts of ourselves that consciously or unconsciously undermine our own wellbeing and dreams. But what causes this self-sabotaging tendency? Where does that inner voice dismissing our needs come from?
On this month’s reflection episode of Stay Grounded, Raj takes a stab at answering these questions from his own lived experiences. Amidst pivotal healing work and relationship mirrors, Raj gains profound clarity on childhood origins of his own self-abandonment patterns.
Tune in now to learn:
Why our closest relationships often reveal our deepest triggers needing releaseThe subtle childhood “trauma” that started Raj’s pattern of self-abandonmentThe steps Raj is taking to clear himself of unhealthy attachment dynamicsHow to reframe disappointments as helpful redirects on your soul's unique pathWhy surrendering control is required to experience the life you actually wantRaj offers an inside look at his emotional process - from uprooting energetic parasites from his system to gaining self-awareness around dynamics with loved ones that conditioned him to put the needs of others before his own. If you resonate with feeling stuck in unhealthy patterns of self-abandonment, Raj's story will inspire deeper trust in the artful unfolding of life through a commitment to the inner work.
