Is Your Body Actually the Key to Business Success? with Loren Cellentani

In this powerful episode of Healthy Waves, we explore the deep intersection of gut health, cardiac coherence, and nervous system transformation through two very different yet profoundly aligned lenses. Functional Medicine Health Coach Angie Gallagher breaks down the myths around cholesterol and heart disease, while Energy Priestess and veteran Susannah Rose Stokes unveils the emotional frequencies stored in the body—and how psilocybin-assisted ceremonies help release them. Together, they unpack the “three minds” of the body: gut, heart, and brain, and how breathwork, intuition, and inner stillness pave the way for true transformation. About the Guests:Angie Gallagher is a National Board-Certified Functional Medicine Coach with 25+ years in cardiac rehab. She bridges Western protocols with root-cause healing, specializing in metabolic and emotional health via the heart-gut-brain connection.Susannah Rose Stokes is a Marine veteran turned transformational guide and co-founder of Embodied Metamorphosis. Her work blends sacred plant medicine with somatic healing, activating deep nervous system repair and energetic integration.   Key Takeaways: Cholesterol is often scapegoated; inflammation and metabolic dysfunction are deeper culprits in heart disease. The gut-heart-brain axis operates as an intelligent, energetic ecosystem—not isolated systems. Psychedelics like psilocybin can support nervous system repair when used ceremonially. Breathwork is the first step to self-regulation and intuitive reconnection. True resilience requires spiritual surrender and metabolic awareness, not just behavior change.

In this heart-opening episode of Healthy Waves, host Avik Chakraborty is joined by mystic, teacher, and speaker Kalen Olson to explore the power of reconnecting with the body’s sacred intelligence. Together, they uncover how mental patterns and societal conditioning keep us trapped in disconnection—and how returning to our unique inner rhythm can dissolve old identities and restore emotional freedom. Kalen shares how sacred feminine and masculine energies can work in harmony to support embodied healing and how simple daily rituals can awaken our inner radiance. This episode is a gentle but powerful invitation to reorient your life from presence, pleasure, and embodied truth. About the Guest:Kalen Olson is a mystic, teacher, and speaker who guides individuals—especially women—back to the wisdom of their bodies. For over 7 years, she has helped seekers reclaim their sacred rhythm by blending non-dualism, forgiveness work, and the union of feminine and masculine principles. Her work makes the sacred tangible through grounded embodiment and conscious living. Key Takeaways: Your body carries wisdom far deeper than mental logic—listen to it. Sacred embodiment is not escapism; it’s the gateway to deeper truth and presence. Radiance isn’t a trait, it’s a frequency cultivated by how you live and relate. Feminine intuition and masculine structure must work together for true integration. Everyday actions like cooking or walking can be transformed into sacred rituals.
