In this heartfelt and deeply grounding conversation, Tina sits down with Kym Coco — author, yogi, teacher, and creator of Swagtail — to explore what death, caregiving, loss, and transition can teach us about living more fully.

Kym shares the story of caring for her late husband, Steve, during the final years of his life, and how that experience deepened her relationship with presence, resilience, nervous system regulation, and conscious choice. She also opens up about writing his memoir, Miracle on the Mountainside, and the healing journey that followed as she set out on a year-long golf adventure in his honor, finding structure, spaciousness, and a new relationship with herself along the way.

Together, Tina and Kym explore grief, identity shifts, the healing power of nature, writing as a tool for self-awareness, and the importance of creating a life that reflects what truly matters now, not someday.

This conversation is a beautiful reminder that love and loss are not opposites, that choosing life is an ongoing practice, and that we each have the power to meet change with more grace, curiosity, and intention.

In this episode, we explore:

• What death can teach us about living fully
• Caregiving, grief, and choosing presence in life’s hardest seasons
• How to regulate the nervous system during stress, uncertainty, and transition
• The healing power of nature, breath, and reflective writing
• Why structure can be essential during identity shifts and loss
• Kym’s year-long golf journey and what travel taught her about confidence, trust, and joy
• How to live more intentionally without waiting for a crisis
• The difference between doing things from obligation versus joy
• Why small changes can create profound momentum
• What it means to be sovereign and fully own your power

In this deeply honest and nourishing conversation, Tina sits down with Yvonne Winkler — coach, writer, podcast host, and author of Freedom Seeker: Reclaiming Feminine Wisdom — to explore what it really looks like to come home to yourself after years of over-functioning, overworking, and living in survival mode.

Yvonne shares the powerful story of her life, from growing up in former communist East Germany, to navigating the pressures of achievement and performance in the West, to confronting burnout, addiction, emotional pain, and the deep inner reckoning that eventually led her back to herself.

Together, Tina and Yvonne explore the journey from urgency to exhale, from self-abandonment to self-compassion, and from external pressure to inner sanctuary.

This conversation is for any woman who feels like she has been carrying too much for too long. It is a reminder that stillness is not failure, softness is not weakness, and your life may not be falling apart — you may simply be standing at a sacred threshold.

In this episode, we explore:

• What it means to go from survival to sanctuary
• How burnout, overachievement, and emotional suppression live in the body
• Yvonne’s story of fleeing East Germany and how that shaped her nervous system and identity
• The role of addiction, courage, and radical self-honesty in healing
• How writing her memoir became a path to wholeness
• Why midlife is often a sacred threshold, not a crisis
• Emotional safety, nervous system healing, and the importance of rest

What happens when you stop fighting for your life… and start loving it back into coherence?

In this powerful episode of The Sovereign Soul Podcast, Tina sits down with Dr. Neja Zupan — Mentor in Inner Energy Mastery & Recalibration, speaker, and founder of the Dr. Neja Zupan Institute — for a deeply moving conversation on healing, energy, identity, and conscious choice.

Dr. Neja shares her story of being diagnosed in 2013 with aggressive hormone-dependent ductal cancer and given a 5% chance of survival. Instead of following the expected path, she chose a radically different one rooted in inner alignment, energetic recalibration, and daily devotion to life.

Together, Tina and Dr. Neja explore the connection between body, emotions, mind, energy, and spirit, and how true healing begins when we stop living from fear and start creating from coherence.

This episode is for anyone navigating burnout, a health challenge, a major life transition, or a call to live more fully aligned.

In this episode, we cover:

• Dr. Neja’s healing journey and the decision that changed everything
• Why “quality of life” became her guiding principle
• The identity shift from fighting to love
• The five levels of multidimensional recalibration: body, emotions, mind, energy, and spirit
• The energetic roots of burnout and stagnation
• How daily practices build clarity, vitality, and inner stability
• Why laughter, singing, and dancing are part of healing
• The power of pausing, responding, and creating from calm

What if the clients draining your energy aren’t a pricing problem… but a messaging problem?

In this episode of The Sovereign Soul Podcast, Tina sits down with Joanna Ingram to talk about what really happens when high-achieving women leave corporate, start a soul-led business, and accidentally rebuild the same burnout patterns they thought they escaped.

Joanna shares her journey from London advertising executive to brand messaging consultant, pranic healer, and breathwork facilitator, and reveals the turning point that changed everything: realizing she had become a worse boss to herself than any boss she had in corporate.

Together, Tina and Joanna explore the deeper connection between identity, energetics, Human Design, and messaging, and why premium, self-led clients respond to clarity, resonance, and future-focused communication.

If you’ve been overdelivering, overexplaining, or attracting clients who leave you depleted, this episode will help you see exactly why and what to shift.

In this episode, we cover:

• Joanna’s transition from corporate advertising to soul-led entrepreneurship
• The burnout cycle that follows many coaches out of corporate
• How Human Design helped Joanna own her zone of genius
• Why “alignment” is often misunderstood in business
• The real reason energy-draining clients keep showing up
• The difference between low-frequency and high-frequency messaging
• How to attract self-led, empowered, premium clients
• Joanna’s framework for messaging: positioning, authority, and conversion

In this deeply nourishing conversation on The Sovereign Soul Podcast, Tina sits down with Cheryl Stelte, founder of the Star of Divine Light Institute, to explore what real transformation actually takes.

Cheryl shares her journey from profound grief and spiritual awakening to becoming a master healer and teacher with more than three decades of experience helping women clear subconscious and energetic patterns at the root.

Together, Tina and Cheryl unpack the difference between healing and embodiment, what sovereignty actually feels like in the body, and why so many women who’ve “done the work” still feel like something is missing.

This episode is a powerful invitation to stop pushing, start listening, and learn how to work with your energy system instead of against it.

In this episode, we explore:

• Why insight alone doesn’t create transformation
• How subconscious and energetic protection patterns can feel like identity
• Healing vs. embodiment (and why they’re not the same thing)
• How authentic sovereignty changes relationships
• Why other people’s behavior is not your responsibility

What does resilient leadership actually look like in real life?

In this episode of The Sovereign Soul Podcast, Tina sits down with Stan Gibson — speaker, author, and leadership coach with 40+ years of executive experience — for a powerful conversation on emotional intelligence, self-awareness, wellbeing, and what it means to lead with intention in a rapidly changing world.

Stan shares the unforgettable story of going from a 1–10 college football team to national champions in just one year, and how that early experience shaped his understanding of people-centered leadership. From there, the conversation opens into practical wisdom on resilience, personal growth, assessments, limiting beliefs, identity, and the future of leadership in the age of AI.

Together, Tina and Stan explore the overlap between neuroscience, emotional intelligence, and inner transformation — and why the leaders who thrive next will be the ones who know how to lead humans, not just manage outcomes.

If you’re a leader, entrepreneur, coach, or someone in a season of reinvention, this conversation will meet you right where you are.

In this episode, we explore:

• What makes a truly great leader
• The role of emotional intelligence in resilient leadership
• Why discomfort is part of growth (and how to use it)
• Self-awareness tools like CliftonStrengths and the Enneagram
• “Genius” vs. “kryptonite” traits under stress
• How limiting beliefs shape identity and performance
• The shift from “I want to” to “I am”
• Leadership in the AI era and why human skills matter more than ever
• Why wellbeing is a leadership strategy, not a luxury
• Stan’s framework: emotional intelligence, wellbeing, and productivity

This episode is a grounded reminder that the future of leadership won’t be led by the most informed people in the room, but by the most self-aware.

Most people think posture is about sitting up straight.

In this episode of the Sovereign Soul Podcast, Tina sits down with chiropractor and founder of YourPostureProgram.com, Dr. Brett Hill, to unpack a much deeper truth: posture is not just physical, it’s neurological.

Dr. Brett explains how posture acts as a foundational support system for the nervous system, influencing everything from muscle activation and breathing to stress response, energy, and even mental clarity.

He shares how the body adapts over time to screens, sitting, and stress, and why the goal isn’t forcing your shoulders back, but retraining the brain-body connection through small, consistent shifts.

This conversation is practical, eye-opening, and deeply empowering for anyone who wants to feel better in their body and reclaim long-term wellness one micro-choice at a time.

What You’ll Hear in This Episode

• Why posture is more than how you sit or stand
• The connection between posture and the nervous system
• How stress, screens, and modern life shape postural patterns
• Why “just sit up straight” doesn’t work long term
• How the visual system affects posture (especially at a desk)
• What poor posture can impact beyond pain (breathing, energy, tension, focus)
• A simple balance-based posture reset anyone can practice
• Why small daily actions matter more than big temporary efforts

Your body isn’t broken. It’s adapting.

With awareness, repetition, and the right cues, the same nervous system that learned poor postural patterns can learn new ones.
