Keren shares her journey from the shipping industry to becoming Sussex County’s top real estate agent, revealing how motherhood, loss, and unwavering self-belief shaped her path.

Randolph breaks down the concept of the “Infinite Conceptual Bank,” challenging conventional financial systems and introducing listeners to tools for building personal wealth vehicles that are liquid, safe, and tax-favored. Through real-world examples, he connects financial literacy with mental wellness and outlines a new path for abundance rooted in mindset, vision, and strategy.

In this heartfelt episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik sits down with relationship coach Jack Bohanan to explore the deep emotional roots of attachment patterns and how we can begin to heal. Jack shares how losing a 20-year relationship became a wake-up call that led him to transform his own avoidant tendencies. Together, they unpack how childhood experiences shape adult connection styles, why intellectual awareness alone doesn’t break patterns, and how somatic safety is the true gateway to secure relationships. Listeners will learn what healthy attachment feels like—calm, simple, safe—and how to rewire from survival to connection.   About the Guest:Jack Bohanan is a certified relationship coach and somatica practitioner known for helping people rewire unhealthy relational dynamics. After navigating the loss of a long-term relationship due to insecure attachment, Jack dove deep into healing—both personally and professionally. He now uses somatic roleplay, embodiment work, and his signature Ideal Partner Figure (IPF) method to guide clients, including therapists, into healthier connections. Jack’s mission is simple: help people experience what real love feels like in their nervous system, not just in their head.   Key Takeaways: Awareness is only the beginning; somatic safety is what actually shifts attachment wounds. Secure attachment feels peaceful, not intense—comfort in connection and in solitude. Many of us confuse familiarity with love, even when it’s toxic. You don’t need to “fix” yourself—being kinder to your nervous system is a powerful first step. Healing happens in real-time experiences, not just in therapy sessions or journaling.

In this transformative episode of Healthy Waves, host Avik Chakraborty welcomes seasoned physical therapist Dave Jeter, founder of Acceleration Physical Therapy, to challenge the conventional approach to treating musculoskeletal pain. Rather than jumping straight to surgeries or quick fixes, Dave advocates for starting with movement-based healing—retraining the body to function as a whole, not in isolation. Drawing from 23+ years of experience, Dave breaks down how PT addresses the root cause of pain, not just the symptoms. From chronic back issues to pre-surgical support, Dave shares why physical therapy should be the first line of defense, and how understanding the kinetic chain is crucial to lasting recovery. Through powerful stories and simple metaphors, he illustrates how PT can help patients not just heal—but thrive. About the Guest:Dave Jeter is a licensed physical therapist and founder of Acceleration Physical Therapy in Spokane, WA. With over two decades of experience, Dave specializes in biomechanical dysfunctions, manual therapy, and restoring functional movement patterns. His mission is to empower patients with knowledge and movement so they can reclaim their active lives without unnecessary procedures. Key Takeaways: Physical therapy treats the cause, not just the symptoms, by addressing the full kinetic chain. Quick fixes like injections or surgery can mask the problem—PT helps prevent them altogether. Chronic pain can be retrained by rewiring how the brain perceives movement. Proactive PT can reduce surgeries and healthcare costs dramatically. Everyone—especially older adults—can benefit from regular movement assessments to prevent future injuries.
