631. Change Your Future by Changing Your Energy! Here is How to Do It...

Hey Heal Squad! We’re back with Part 2 of our powerful conversation with Hannah Brown, and this time, we’re going deeper into the heart. Hannah is opening up about her decision to start couples therapy with her fiancé Adam—not because something was wrong, but because they wanted to build a strong foundation for marriage. She talks about her avoidant attachment style, the trauma that shaped it, and how therapy has helped her feel seen, safe, and connected in ways she never thought possible. We also dive into Hannah’s latest season of life—between planning a wedding, writing her second novel, and working through lingering health issues like narcolepsy and inflammation flare-ups. Plus, she shares some of her favorite wellness rituals, beauty hacks, and the deeper emotional themes behind her new book The Four Engagement Rings of Sybil Rain. If you’ve ever struggled to feel safe in love, felt unseen in a relationship, or wondered if healing your past is possible, this episode is for you. 💛 HEALERS & HEAL-LINERS:  Emotional Avoidance Isn’t Who You Are—It’s What You Learned: Hannah breaks down how her avoidant attachment style showed up in her relationship, and how therapy helped her identify the patterns holding her back. Growth Requires Support: Hannah reminds us that even when things “look good,” healing is an ongoing process—and having a growth-minded partner makes the journey even more powerful. Resilience is Built in the Chaos: From narcolepsy to wedding planning to launching a book, Hannah shares how she’s managing it all without losing herself—by slowing down and staying connected to her needs. Movement Is Medicine: Her non-negotiable? Strength training 3–4x a week. Not to look a certain way—but because it keeps her mentally and physically strong. -- HEAL SQUAD SOCIALS IG: https://www.instagram.com/healsquad/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@healsquadxmaria HEAL SQUAD RESOURCES: Heal Squad Website:https://www.healsquad.com/ Heal Squad x Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/HealSquad/membership Maria Menounos Website: https://www.mariamenounos.com My Curated Macy’s Page: Shop My Macy’s Storefront Prenuvo: Prenuvo.com/MARIA for $300 off Delete Me: https://bit.ly/43rkHwi   code: SQUAD EMR-Tek Red Light: https://emr-tek.com/discount/Maria30 for 30% off HANNAH BROWN RESOURCES: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/hannahbrown/  YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@hannahbrown/featured  TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@hannahkbrown?lang=en  Pre-Order Her Book Now! https://www.hachettebookgroup.com/titles/hannah-brown/the-four-engagement-rings-of-sybil-rain/9781538756805/  ABOUT MARIA MENOUNOS: Emmy Award-winning journalist, TV personality, actress, 2x NYT best-selling author, former pro-wrestler and brain tumor survivor, Maria Menounos’ passion is to see others heal and to get better in all areas of life.

Hey Heal Squad! We’re kicking off an incredible two-part conversation with Hannah Brown! You might know her from The Bachelorette, DWTS, and Special Forces, but today, she’s opening up in a way you’ve never seen before. For the first time, Hannah shares her personal journey of healing from chronic inflammation, anxiety, PCOS, and a mysterious autoimmune rollercoaster that left her in pain, confused, and feeling broken. She takes us through the real story behind her transformation—from not being able to walk up stairs to winning Special Forces and reclaiming her power. She also opens up about working with Dr. Daniel Amen, receiving a double uterus diagnosis, and how she’s navigating fertility and womanhood on her own terms. This episode is for anyone who’s felt dismissed, burned out, or “not enough”—because Hannah proves healing is messy, personal, and so worth it. HEALERS & HEAL-LINERS:  Stress Is a Silent Saboteur: Hannah shares how living in constant survival mode led to burnout, inflammation, and deep fatigue—reminding us that even success can mask suffering when we’re disconnected from our body’s signals. You Can’t Heal What You Don’t Acknowledge: From inflammation and gut issues to emotional exhaustion, Hannah reveals how naming the pain and doing the inner work is what allowed her to begin true physical healing. Healing Begins With Self-Trust: Working with experts like Dr. Daniel Amen helped Hannah reconnect with her intuition—but the real transformation began when she gave herself permission to trust her own process. -- HEAL SQUAD SOCIALS IG: https://www.instagram.com/healsquad/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@healsquadxmaria HEAL SQUAD RESOURCES: Heal Squad Website:https://www.healsquad.com/ Heal Squad x Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/HealSquad/membership Maria Menounos Website: https://www.mariamenounos.com My Curated Macy’s Page: Shop My Macy’s Storefront Prenuvo: Prenuvo.com/MARIA for $300 off Delete Me: https://bit.ly/43rkHwi   code: SQUAD HANNAH BROWN RESOURCES: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/hannahbrown/  YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@hannahbrown/featured  TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@hannahkbrown?lang=en  Pre-Order Her Book Now! https://www.hachettebookgroup.com/titles/hannah-brown/the-four-engagement-rings-of-sybil-rain/9781538756805/  ABOUT MARIA MENOUNOS: Emmy Award-winning journalist, TV personality, actress, 2x NYT best-selling author, former pro-wrestler and brain tumor survivor, Maria Menounos’ passion is to see others heal and to get better in all areas of life.

Hey, Heal Squad! This week’s Roundtable is turning the temperature up (and way down) as they dive into the wellness world’s favorite trends: cold plunges and saunas. Are they really the ultimate healing tools—or are we just copying viral biohacks that don’t fit our unique bodies? We’re breaking down what everyone’s talking about: the “Joe Rogan Method” of 39°F cold plunging with methylene blue. Is it effective? Dr. Allison shares why context, mitochondrial health, and even your ancestral DNA play a huge role in how your body responds to cold. We also explore sauna detox strategies and the truth about why sweating isn’t always as simple as it seems. PLUS, Maria opens up about her own experience with cryotherapy and why she stopped cold plunging after expert advice. (P.S. there’s a better, gentler way to build resilience that doesn’t involve shocking your system into stress) Tune in!! -- HEAL SQUAD SOCIALS IG: https://www.instagram.com/healsquad/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@healsquadxmaria HEAL SQUAD RESOURCES: Heal Squad Website: https://www.healsquad.com/ Maria Menounos Website: https://www.mariamenounos.com Heal Squad x Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/HealSquad/membership  My Curated Macy’s Page: Shop My Macy’s Storefront Delete Me: https://bit.ly/43rkHwi   code: SQUAD Prenuvo: Prenuvo.com/MARIA for $300 off HEADLINES & RESOURCES Sauna Clip: https://www.instagram.com/reel/DHW4XJmIlef/?igsh=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ%3D%3D  Jack Kruse on Heal Squad: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/805-unraveling-the-medical-matrix-with-dr-jack-kruse/id1320060107?i=1000642475475  Jack Kruse Book: https://www.amazon.com/Epi-paleo-Rx-Prescription-Disease-Reversal/dp/0989057739 ABOUT MARIA MENOUNOS: Emmy Award-winning journalist, TV personality, actress, 2x NYT best-selling author, former pro-wrestler and brain tumor survivor, Maria Menounos’ passion is to see others heal and to get better in all areas of life.

Hey Heal Squad, it's the last day of the week and time for your Sunday Set Up. This week Kev is once again joined by college friend Anne to discuss leading with love and how doing so begets more love. There is also an in depth dream reveal and analysis with resident therapist Chat GPT doing the interpretations. In addition, Chat deciphers other messages you may be receiving from the universe - messages you're most likely unaware of but maybe shouldn't be. Shame feeds smoke. Love feeds light.  Here's to another great week! See you Monday, Heal Squad!     -- HEAL SQUAD SOCIALS IG: https://www.instagram.com/healsquad/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@healsquadxmaria HEAL SQUAD RESOURCES: Heal Squad Website:https://www.healsquad.com/ Heal Squad x Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/HealSquad/membership Maria Menounos Website: https://www.mariamenounos.com My Curated Macy’s Page: Shop My Macy’s Storefront Prenuvo: Prenuvo.com/MARIA for $300 off Delete Me: https://bit.ly/43rkHwi   code: SQUAD ABOUT MARIA MENOUNOS: Emmy Award-winning journalist, TV personality, actress, 2x NYT best-selling author, former pro-wrestler and brain tumor survivor, Maria Menounos’ passion is to see others heal and to get better in all areas of life.

Hey Regular Guys and Gals we made it through another week to another edition of Regular Guy Friday. East coast college friend Anne Sleeman returns where she and Kev discuss revelations on what living in the 3D world means, what living in the 4D world means and even what living in the 5D world means. How to integrate all three dimensions and why doing so enriches life. How the people who are willing to express their fears and pain are actually the most courageous of all. How there is much space to heal the victims but little space to heal the perpetrators. How there may be no such thing as perpetrators or victims at all - certainly not in the 5D world. How the emotion of courage is on the equator level of consciousness. How anger is better than shame because at least it has energy. How the emotion of anger can only elevate you so far and how true longevity is in the emotion of joy (as proven by various star athletes and yes we name them). How demons appear to battle you right on the cusp of recovery. How the realest battle of all could be the choice to attend a self help seminar or a hotel roofdeck pool party. More discussion on the launch of Victim Con and even a Perpetrator Con? Bye Betches. -- HEAL SQUAD SOCIALS IG: https://www.instagram.com/healsquad/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@healsquadxmaria HEAL SQUAD RESOURCES: Heal Squad Website:https://www.healsquad.com/ Heal Squad x Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/HealSquad/membership Maria Menounos Website: https://www.mariamenounos.com My Curated Macy’s Page: Shop My Macy’s Storefront Prenuvo: Prenuvo.com/MARIA for $300 off Delete Me: https://bit.ly/43rkHwi   code: SQUAD ABOUT MARIA MENOUNOS: Emmy Award-winning journalist, TV personality, actress, 2x NYT best-selling author, former pro-wrestler and brain tumor survivor, Maria Menounos’ passion is to see others heal and to get better in all areas of life.

Happy Throwback Thursday, Heal Squad! This week, we’re rewinding to one of our most brain-boosting conversations with Jim Kwik, brain coach and best-selling author of Limitless. Jim introduces us to his Brain Animal Quiz—a simple but powerful tool that reveals your unique cognitive style and how you learn best. Whether you’re a cheetah, owl, dolphin, or elephant, understanding your brain type can help you read faster, improve memory, build better teams, and even become a more connected parent or leader. Maria and Jim also dive into child development, parenting styles, mirror neurons, and why who you spend time with is who you become.

Hey Heal Squad! We’re back with Part 2 of our amazing convo with Nicole Sachs, LCSW, psychotherapist, mindbody expert, and author of the upcoming book Mind Your Body. This time, Nicole is diving deep into her transformative practice called JournalSpeak, a method that’s helped her and so many others heal from chronic pain, anxiety, autoimmune symptoms, and more by getting to the root of what’s really going on: unprocessed emotions. She breaks down how our subconscious beliefs, people-pleasing patterns, and early-life stressors can keep us sick—even when we think we’ve “moved on.” Nicole also shares personal stories (including how she healed a severe spinal condition doctors said was permanent!) and the exact tools that helped clients like Ricki Lake and Shoshana Bean reclaim their health. If you’ve been doing all the things but still feel stuck, this might be the missing piece. Tune in!  HEALERS & HEAL LINERS:  JournalSpeak as a Path to Healing: Nicole shares how her daily 20-minute practice, JournalSpeak, helps release repressed emotions and subconscious beliefs that keep the nervous system stuck in survival mode—unlocking real, lasting healing from chronic pain and anxiety. The Pain-Protection Connection: Many chronic symptoms are not signs of physical damage, but messages from a dysregulated nervous system trying to keep you safe from emotional discomfort or trauma. Nicole explains how understanding this rewires the healing process. The Cost of People-Pleasing: Long-term patterns of perfectionism and putting others first may feel safe, but Nicole reveals how this emotional suppression often contributes to chronic symptoms and a dysregulated body. -- HEAL SQUAD SOCIALS IG: https://www.instagram.com/healsquad/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@healsquadxmaria HEAL SQUAD RESOURCES: Heal Squad Website:https://www.healsquad.com/ Heal Squad x Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/HealSquad/membership Maria Menounos Website: https://www.mariamenounos.com My Curated Macy’s Page: Shop My Macy’s Storefront Prenuvo: Prenuvo.com/MARIA for $300 off Delete Me: https://bit.ly/43rkHwi   code: SQUAD EPISODE RESOURCES:  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nicolesachslcsw/  Website: https://www.yourbreakawake.com/  Mind Your Body Book: https://www.yourbreakawake.com/book  Nicole on Heal Squad: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/724-emotions-cause-physical-discomfort-w-nicole-sachs/id1320060107?i=1000626680062  ABOUT MARIA MENOUNOS: Emmy Award-winning journalist, TV personality, actress, 2x NYT best-selling author, former pro-wrestler and brain tumor survivor, Maria Menounos’ passion is to see others heal and to get better in all areas of life.
