Welcome
Redefining Love is a podcast for anyone who has ever searched outside themselves for worth, acceptance, or love—only to find that the emptiness remains. Whether through toxic relationships, addiction, or the relentless pursuit of success, we chase fulfillment in all the wrong places. But the truth is, real love—the kind that heals—can only be found within.
Through raw and powerful storytelling, Redefining Love explores the rock bottoms and the breaking points that force us to look inward. It’s in the darkness of our struggles that we uncover our deepest strength. By embracing self-worth and radical self-love, we rise—not just back to the surface, but into a new, brighter light.
Join us as we rewrite the narrative on love, healing, and personal transformation.
Because when we feel whole within, love stops being something we chase—and starts being something we embody.

In this solo episode, I fully open up about a guy I was dating and how he became the catalyst to some of my biggest realizations in how I show up in relation to others.
Through the details of my date, you will see how I came to realize a pattern I had in all my relationships for my entire life. Talk about a light bulb moment! When I finally realized and shifted this pattern, the quality of people I now attract into my life completely shifted.
When we can use connections for our own healing we can use them to empower ourselves and even when they don’t work out, we can walk away and feel blessed that we met them. This episode has the capacity to change everything you have known about dating, relationships and how we relate to others.

When Everything Feels Like its Falling Apart, There are no Mistakes

Tara shares her personal journey through creating her dream retreat centre in the jungle; a vision she has wanted for years. Her experience was nothing short of challenging. From being without electricity, hot water, internet and completely isolated in the Mexican Jungle, she vulnerability shares how this villa was her actually her very own “Transformational Retreat” taking her to her knees at moments.
After overcoming multiple layered challenges, she grew in ways she didn’t even know were possible - highlighting that she had been sacrificing her own self in the very path of helping others. With this profound realization, she came to see that even the most difficult moments on our paths are the sandpaper that will shape us to stepping into the bigger versions of us we were meant to be in this life.
Nothing is by accident, everything is by design.

Not Just a Moment—A Movement: Life After Psilocybin, 1.5 Years Transformed
Monday Apr 21, 2025
Monday Apr 21, 2025
What if one experience could shift everything… and still be unfolding 1.5 years later?
In this deeply honest and vulnerable conversation, Dawn and Dan return to share the profound impact of their 5-day couples psilocybin retreat — not just in the moment, but in the long-lasting ripple effects it's had on their lives, relationship, and sense of self.
Dan, initially hesitant and unsure if he even needed the experience, ended up having one of the most transformational journeys in the group — one that continues to shape how he shows up in the world today. Together, they open up about their fears, breakthroughs, struggles during the process, and the unexpected beauty that’s followed them home.
This is more than just a story about psychedelics — it’s about trust, courage, and choosing a new way forward.

If you’ve ever felt stuck in the same painful relationship cycle—always attracting the wrong people, ignoring red flags, and wondering why it keeps happening—this episode will help you see things differently. I share a personal story that led me to a powerful truth: the people we attract are often mirrors for the parts of us that still need healing.
But here’s the hope—once you begin doing the inner work, everything changes. Your frequency shifts, and so does the kind of love you invite in. If you're ready to break the pattern and start attracting love that feels safe, aligned, and real… this episode is your first step.

Monday Apr 07, 2025
Keegan spent years living in secret as a high-functioning addict, silently battling his demons while the world around him had no idea. When life brought him to the edge—facing suicidal thoughts and a fatal diagnosis—he was forced to confront everything he’d been avoiding. But from that rock bottom, something extraordinary happened.
This is a gripping, emotional, and deeply vulnerable conversation about what it means to truly heal. Today, he’s building a company designed to help others step out of the darkness and into their own healing journey.
If you're navigating addiction, mental health struggles, or simply searching for deeper meaning, Keegan’s story will remind you: it’s never too late to rise and there is no shame in asking for help.

Welcome!! You are not here by accident.
I want to share something....
We've been taught that happiness exists outside of us but the truth is that happiness is actually only obtained from within. This podcast is about finding that place inside of yourself that gives you everything you need It's a place inside of you so rich in inner peace that nothing can take it away from you.
