389. Create Your New Year Life Plan: Step 2 - Make Your Dreams a Reality

Hey Heal Squad! Welcome to Part 1 of a special conversation with a familiar guest, Judy Wilkins-Smith, a leading expert in emotional DNA, systems work, and ancestral healing! Judy dives deep into how our unconscious family patterns (especially around money, fear, and identity) get passed down generation after generation. From emotional imprints to inherited beliefs, these “invisible loyalties” can keep us stuck in cycles of scarcity, self-sabotage, and even illness. This good news is, Judy explains how to recognize a generational pattern when it’s running your life, how to trace it back to its origin, and most importantly, how to shift it using elevated emotion and intentional language. We also explore how inherited trauma shapes your nervous system, how your relationship with money is rarely just yours, and why feeling safe is the starting point for real growth. This episode will change how you see your past AND give you tools to create a different future! Enjoy!!  HEALERS & HEAL LINERS:  Inherited patterns are running the show. Many of your thoughts, beliefs, and behaviors—especially around money, fear, and identity—aren’t yours. They’re inherited through your family system and can keep you stuck until you become conscious of them. Emotional DNA is just as powerful as physical DNA. The emotional patterns passed down from your ancestors impact your relationships, your career, and your health. Recognizing these patterns gives you the power to rewrite them. Scarcity is often a family story. Money blocks and financial fears are frequently passed down through generations. Until you identify the root belief, you’ll continue reliving the same cycle. -- 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 JUDY WILKINS-SMITH RESOURCES: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/judywilkinssmith/  Website: https://judywilkins-smith.com/  Book: https://www.amazon.com/Hidden-Power-Your-DNA-Genealogy/dp/B0D3414MVL Check out her upcoming event: https://judywilkins-smith.com/events/breakthrough-dna/  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! The Roundtable is back, and this week we’re diving into two household staples that might be doing more harm than good: electric toothbrushes and microwaves. 😳 Maria brings in a viral headline that claims electric toothbrushes are “microwaving your brain.” Is it clickbait—or is there truth to the EMF concerns? Dr. Alison breaks down the science, and we explore how seemingly harmless daily habits could be adding to your health load. We also get into microwave use and how it can degrade food quality and alter molecular structure. Christina shares tips on how to reheat your food without nuking its nutrients—and Maria reveals why she ditched the microwave years ago (but also what made her bring it back for one sweet potato muffin). And of course, we talk about the real goal: empowerment over fear. How to make informed choices without spiraling into wellness anxiety. — 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 EMR-Tek Red Light: https://emr-tek.com/discount/Maria30 for 30% off HEADLINES & RESOURCES Toothbrush Video: https://www.instagram.com/reel/DGpVPUjJ6TO/?igsh=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ%3D%3D  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 Mother’s Day, Heal Squad! It’s another Sunday Setup, still not greenlit but vibing high anyway, as Kev and his co-conspirator Anne ease us into the week. We kick things off with melancholy theme songs, Lutheran Easter specials, and why life isn’t about chasing joy or dodging pain—it’s about being present for both. (Kitty rollercoaster > Space Mountain. Debate settled.) From there, it’s a gratitude deep dive, courtesy of The Magic and Dr. Kim’s MindBody work. The lesson? Ungratefulness isn’t neutral—it takes from you. So when the negative thoughts hit, stand by... and respond with thanks. Even if it’s for the very thing that triggered you. Especially if it is. We also get a simple but game-changing reframe on manifestation. Forget complicated vision boards—just feel the feeling now. Want love? Feel lovable. Want wealth? Feel successful. Want to move like you’re still 22? Feel like it—and maybe throw in a basketball. Kev walks us through his own case study, from spiritual mogul-ing to BD(E) energy, all wrapped in gratitude, shadow work, and a few Captain Lou Albano references for good measure. PLUS: meditation tips for movers, ADHD learning hacks, and why window sales legend Big Ed is Kev’s new inner mascot. This week’s Setup takeaway? You’re not waiting to become—you already are. Feel it. Live it. And as always, whether it’s pain or joy, remember: nothing here is permanent…except change.   Dr. Kim D’Eramo’s Workshop: https://drkimd.com/workshop-2025/    -- 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 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.

It’s Friday and we fooled them again! It’s a Regular Guy Witchy Wounds and Victim Con Edition of RGF—and yes, what a SCAM This week, Kev and his Holiday Specials We Love co-host Anne dive into all things regular guy: cuts that come with spiritual symbolism, voodoo flashbacks from the Carnie business, and how finger injuries may actually be your soul trying to send a message. We get into Salem lore, give a shoutout to our witchy friends (love and light!), and unpack whether Jesus would hang with Wiccans (spoiler: Kev thinks yes). There’s dream analysis, ancestral healing, snakes that don’t bite, and the slow rise from background player to generational cycle-breaker. Oh, and a strong pitch for cabana service in 5D. Because why ascend if there’s no bottle service? RGF Bonus: An official update on Salem’s OG witch Laurie Cabot, dream insights from ChatGPT (aka Kev’s new bestie), and the first-ever glimpse at Victim Con’s rapidly expanding multi-tiered franchise model—V2Con, anyone?

Happy Throwback Thursday, Heal Squad! In honor of Mental Health Awareness Month, and our recent episodes with Hannah Brown. We’re bringing back one of the many conversations we’ve had with brain health pioneer and psychiatrist, Dr. Daniel Amen. Dr. Amen challenges everything we think we know about mental illness. He shares why we should stop calling it “mental” illness and start seeing it for what it really is: brain illness. From trauma and inflammation to diet and automatic negative thoughts (aka ANTs), Dr. Amen reveals the true root causes behind anxiety, depression, and emotional suffering—and what we can do to heal. You’ll learn practical tools to improve your mood, increase focus, and finally feel like yourself again. Whether you're deep in your healing journey or just getting started, this episode is a powerful reminder that your brain health is your superpower. Let’s shine a light on healing this month, and always.

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.
