Those images can feel paralyzing when you’re trying to build something real with limited time, money, or energy. The idea of total self-sufficiency often operates more like a story than a livable path, and holding it as the end goal can stop momentum before it starts.Today I’m joined by Kymber Rae, a first-generation homesteader-to-be, living on the edge of farmland and Boreal Forest in Saskatchewan, Canada. She’s renovating a mobile home on a budget, gradually working the land, and raising a new family while learning as she goes.This conversation centers on a grounded approach to simple living that values progress over fantasy and participation over perfection. There’s an honest look at starting a homestead incrementally, navigating relationships and parenthood, and building practical autonomy rooted in community, land, and time rather than aesthetic ideals.You’ll Learn:[00:00] Introduction[06:39] Kymber's calling to land and practical strategies for acquiring property[13:36] Food sovereignty through community interdependence[22:48] What’s to be said about eating food from the land you’re standing on[25:43] Time management for gardening and learning through trial and error[33:29] Food preservation methods, including canning, fermenting, and dehydrating[36:43] Creative water solutions without well access or plumbing[42:12] How badly you want it determines what barriers you'll overcome[46:19] Motherhood's impact on homesteading, homeschooling priorities, and choosing growth over comfort[55:08] Digital community as psyop, lost social skills, and healing polarized relationshipsResources Mentioned:Freedom Fighters with Curtis Stone | YouTubeVeda Austin | WebsiteDr. Masaru Emoto | WebsiteFind more from Kymber:Kymber’s Cottage | YouTubeKymber’s Cottage | InstagramKymber’s Cottage | FacebookFind more from Alec:Alec Zeck | InstagramAlec Zeck | XThe Way Forward | InstagramThe Way Forward is Sponsored By:RMDY Academy & Collective: Homeopathy Made AccessibleHigh-quality remedies and training to support natural healing.Enroll hereExplore hereNew Biology Clinic: Redefine Health from the Ground UpExperience tailored terrain-based health services with consults, livestreams, movement classes, and more.

Your membership directly supports the podcast and the work we do.You’re not running your life… your belief system is.Today I’m joined by Josh Trent, an identity transformation architect and the host of the Wellness + Wisdom Podcast. For nearly a decade, his work has centered on helping driven, burnt-out achievers unwind the emotional and belief patterns that run their lives.Identity under pressure reveals how much of who we are was shaped long before we had a choice, with unconscious beliefs tracing back far beyond our own lived experiences. Nervous system regulation, money stories, and lineage show up as an interconnected web that influences how daily life is experienced and navigated. Addiction and self-abandonment surface as signals of deeper disconnection. Responsibility for the inner world becomes less about fixing what’s wrong and more about seeing what’s beneath the surface.This episode speaks to anyone sensing that forward movement isn’t about more tactics, but by understanding the forces shaping personal choices, accumulated stress, and the kind of freedom that feels earned rather than chased.You’ll Learn:[00:00] Introduction[06:30] Breaking down the old identity: the practices Josh used for transformation[19:02] Is plant medicine a necessity when it comes to transformation?[34:07] Getting to your root beliefs with the BTFA practice: a breathwork walkthrough[58:45] Traditional talk therapy vs somatic approaches[01:11:23] Understanding addiction as disconnection and the trap of trading one addiction for another[01:27:05] Facing your biggest fear in real-time: how Alec nearly shut down his podcast[01:41:24] Emotional epigenetics and unconsciously passing patterns down through generations[01:53:58] The single most powerful practice: emotional inventoryRelated The Way Forward Episodes:Health Freedom for Humanity with Josh Trent | Spotify or AppleResources Mentioned:The Great Unlearn with Cal Callahan | WebsiteFearful Memories Passed Down to Mouse Descendants by Callaway E. | ArticleSelf Liberation Blueprint + The Liberated Life Tribe Free Community:The Self Liberation Blueprint is a 10-day jumpstart and free tribe access that's perfect for the person who feels stuck, and they don't know why.

    Ep 219: What The Media Hides About Epstein, Kirk, Trump & Israel with Ian Carroll & Chris Crutchfield
    Feb 11 2026
    Join Ian Carroll and Alec for a live TWF member Q&A on March 12th. Become a member hereThis episode was recorded prior to the recent Epstein Files release.The mass media have been hiding a lot of things from us, and it’s probably worse than you thought…In this episode, I’m joined by Ian Carroll & Chris Crutchfield for a wide-ranging conversation on how modern systems shape perception, behavior, and control. Ian breaks down how banks, asset managers, and corporate structures exert influence not through headlines, but through incentive design and financial leverage. He shares how questioning COVID narratives, financial corruption, and media overload led him to trace power through banking, corporate ownership, and information flows rather than political theater.Chris brings a complementary systems-level perspective, connecting money, energy, trust structures, and dynastic power across history. He reframes currency as current, attention as leverage, and technology as an amplifier of unresolved incentives. Together, we examine why scandals like Epstein distract from deeper networks, how controlled opposition and algorithmic feeds fracture reality, and why humility matters in an era of mass formation and information warfare.This conversation isn’t about picking sides. It’s about learning how to see the machinery clearly, without letting it claim your identity, attention, or sovereignty.You’ll Learn:[00:00] Introduction[09:40] Secret societies and old money families: the power structures that leave money trails[21:56] Currency as electrical energy, human bodies as current, and banking's trust-based control system[39:09] Controlled opposition, COINTELPRO tactics, and verifying information by fruits not trees [52:32] How algorithms control perception, create false realities, and trap you in identity labels[01:10:45] The social media paradox, finding community through devices, and humanity's infant stage with technology[01:24:47] Protecting authenticity over access: why Binder Gate chose influencers over real journalists[01:45:32] Why Charlie Kirk's assassination is the most important story in the world right now[01:57:33] JD Vance as technocratic camp's unwitting front man and the Truman Show presidency[02:20:11] How government biofield manipulation and MK Ultra tactics created the perfect patsy[02:44:26] Maduro's capture with microwave weapons, DOD bio-widgets in every American, and ICE tyranny theater[03:05:48] Vegas shooting blacked out, MBS assassination attempt, and the flip about who really does evilRelated The Way Forward Episodes:Debunking All the Myths About Slavery, Civil Rights, MLK & Ku Klux Klan with Chad O.

Your membership directly supports the podcast and the work we do: www.thewayfwrd.com/joinIt’s time to re-evaluate the commonly accepted narratives about MLK, civil rights and the KKK…In this episode, I sit down with Chad O. Jackson for a long-form conversation about Martin Luther King Jr. and why his legacy still provokes such strong emotional and political reactions. Chad is an independent filmmaker and researcher whose work returns to primary sources and overlooked voices, and that lens shapes everything we talk about here.He recently participated in an MLK debate that ran for hours, creating space for historical context instead of sound bites and patience instead of performative rebuttals. That debate opens the door into a much larger conversation about history, memory, and how certain narratives become culturally untouchable.We dig into how the Civil Rights Movement is taught, celebrated, and reinforced from an early age, often without room for deeper examination. Chad draws from archival research, period publications, and primary documents, showing how interpretation influences public memory just as much as the facts themselves.This episode is for listeners who value critical thinking and aren’t afraid to sit with uncomfortable questions.You’ll Learn:[00:00] Introduction[08:52] What triggered Chad to investigate the MLK narrative[17:13] Challenging northern propaganda about slavery[27:40]  Life for black Americans prior to the Civil Rights Movement[44:45] King's upbringing: born into wealthy black elite family, Daddy King's social gospel, and rejecting Christ's divinity by age 12[01:03:13] Why both the FBI and communists wanted the civil rights movement [01:09:38] The aftermath of the Civil Rights Movement [01:17:03] The MLK docuseries structure[01:34:42] The century-long project to separate blacks from Western civilization[01:49:41] Why classism is just another victimization trap[02:08:55] How hip hop culture has negatively impacted the black community[02:22:40] Malcom X and the Civil Rights Movement[02:42:02] The notion that fascism is a reaction to hyper liberalismResources Mentioned:Hatred and Profits: Getting Under the Hood of the Ku Klux Klan by Fryer G.

Your membership directly supports the podcast and the work we do: www.thewayfwrd.com/joinGet your SpringAqua here: springaqua.info/wayfwrd If you think you know everything about water and how hydration works, think again.Contrary to popular belief, hydration isn’t about how much you drink… It’s about how water functions inside the body. Most people focus on intake while missing the form water needs to support energy, clarity, and resilience at the cellular level. That’s why many feel foggy or depleted despite constantly drinking. Liquid water alone doesn’t create hydration. Ancestral cultures understood this long before measuring ounces. Desert peoples stayed hydrated well before modern plumbing existed.In this episode, I talk with Erin Sojourner, Chief Strategic Officer at Spring Aqua with decades of experience in regenerative agriculture, and Gina Bria, an anthropologist and founder of the Hydration Foundation who studies hydration across cultures and ecosystems. Their work bridges structured water science, living systems, and real-world applications—from soil and food to human energy.Together, we dismantle hydration myths, discuss fourth phase water, and challenge the assumption that more drinking is always better.This conversation replaces hydration confusion with a functional model of how water creates energy.You’ll Learn:[00:00] Introduction[08:14] What does true hydration really look like?[16:53] The three ways water functions beyond being a simple material substance[21:22] The reason we are walking around still feeling so dehydrated, regardless of how much water we drink[26:27] The limitations of reverse osmosis and distilled water, and what chia seeds can help with[42:43] Why trace minerals in water are essential even with nutrient-dense food[57:05] The biomimicry technology behind Spring Aqua's system[01:15:56] Erin’s path from first customer to joining the company [01:27:40] The upcoming agricultural device[01:31:23] How water operates at subatomic wave levels[01:37:43] Why humans are 99% water molecularly and how hydration expands perception[01:47:41] Gina's vision for a water-based economyResources Mentioned:Quench by Gina Bria | Book or AudiobookHow to Grow Water — It’s Not Only Blue, It’s Green by Gina Bria | TEDx TalkThe Gnosis and the Law by Tellis S.

Your membership directly supports the podcast and the work we do: www.thewayfwrd.com/joinDid you know your health issues might depend on your biofield?In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Jason Yuan, a physician and practitioner working at the intersection of holistic health, energy healing, and consciousness research. The conversation centers on why chronic conditions often persist when health is treated as purely physical and what becomes possible when the human biofield is taken seriously.Health is approached here as an interaction between the body, emotional patterns, belief systems, and awareness itself. We examine how modalities like acupuncture, hands-off energy healing, and biofield-based practices point toward the same underlying principle: coherence matters.Placebo and nocebo effects expose a familiar pattern: real-world results consistently outpacing institutional validation. If you’re interested in biofield science, mind body connection, and healing at the root, this episode is worth your time.You’ll Learn:[00:00] Introduction[06:28] Pranic healing combined with acupuncture produces 90% success rates[14:19] Defining the biofield and how it acts as your body's blueprint[21:31] The latest biofield research and why belief matters in healing outcomes[36:48] Dr. Yuan's healing journey: removing energetic blocks, addressing limiting beliefs, and the role of character in consciousness evolution[40:04] Detecting energetic congestion, the solar plexus role in self-worth and chronic disease, and consciousness as the foundation[48:27] How emotional purging works, whether trauma is stored in beliefs or tissues, and the role of entities in healing[59:12] Dr. Yuan's spiritual awakening through third eye meditation[01:05:40] Daily self-reflection practices for maintaining energetic balance [01:13:44] Joe Dispenza's coherence healing research group[01:20:13] The power of consciousness to shape reality, social media's influence, and the Maharishi Effect[01:32:28] Manifestation, attachment, and the importance of giving what you want to receive[01:37:46] The role of intuition in pranic healing and how sensitivity develops with energetic cleanlinessRelated The Way Forward Episodes:Tuning the Zodiac & Balancing Through Sound featuring Eileen McKusick | YouTubeThought, Light & The Liquid Language of God with Veda Austin | YouTubeResources Mentioned:Biofield Definition: Consciousness & Healing Initiative | WebsiteA Breakthrough in Scientific Research: Meditation's Impact on Immunity by Dr. Joe Dispenza | WebsiteThe Secret of Light by Walter Russell | Book A Big Picture Theory of Everything by Tom Campbell | WebsiteFind more from Dr. Jason:Dr. Jason Yuan | InstagramConsciousness Cartographer | SubstackFind more from Alec:Alec Zeck | InstagramAlec Zeck | XThe Way Forward | InstagramThe Way Forward is Sponsored By:New Biology Clinic: Redefine Health from the Ground UpExperience tailored terrain-based health services with consults, livestreams, movement classes, and more.

    Jan 23 2026
    Turn online alignment into an offline community — join us at TheWayFwrd.com to connect with like-minded people near you.Feng shui asks a simple question most people never consider: is your space supporting the life you want to live?I’ve spent years questioning the hidden systems shaping our health and freedom, and this conversation with Danijela Saponjic opened a door most people never think to walk through. Feng shui, environmental health, and energy flow quietly influence your nervous system, your relationships, and your ability to create a life that actually feels aligned.This episode goes far beyond aesthetics or surface-level decluttering. We get into how your home functions as a living interface between your body, your mind, and the world around you. We talk about why ancient systems understood holistic health as incomplete without addressing space, how conscious living begins at home, and why ignoring your environment keeps you fighting the same internal battles on repeat.If you care about sovereignty, healing, and building a life that supports rather than drains you, this conversation will challenge how you see your bedroom, kitchen, office, and the land you live on. This is about reclaiming agency by understanding the structures you exist inside every day, and learning how to make them work for you instead of against you.You’ll Learn:[00:00] Introduction[07:13] Space is the forgotten fourth health pillar of ancient traditions[12:57] The universal feng shui basics that work across all home types [19:01] How to declutter with children in the house[35:55] Counteracting feng shui challenges in existing homes[45:37] How the five feng shui elements connect to cardinal directions [01:07:00] The story of how every glass desk in an office led to total business collapse within 24 hours[01:12:08] How do you feng shui an apartment when surrounded by other people's energy?[01:35:58] Why decorating against your geography creates energetic breaks that sabotage manifestation[01:41:24] Why rectangular spaces provide the necessary structure for manifesting, while domes keep you circling[01:52:26] Why feng shui is a living philosophy of presence and reverence, not a decorating techniqueJust starting out with Feng Shui and energy work?
