Laurie Nealon: “Energy Healing with Help From the Ot...

What if you were never working alone—and neither was anyone you were trying to help?

This week, Tami Simon speaks with Laurie Nealon, an intuitive energy healer, medium, and educator whose work is profiled on the Sounds True podcast Phenomena: The Science and Stories of Energy Healing. Seventeen years ago, Laurie began seeing and hearing those who had passed—not in dreams, but in the middle of her waking life. She resisted it. Then she built a practice around it.

Join Tami and Laurie to explore:

  • What Laurie actually perceives when someone who has died “appears”—and how she learned to filter it
  • Integrated Energy Therapy (IET), attunement, and why she calls the practitioner a facilitator rather than a healer
  • The “spiritual support group”: angels, guides, ascended masters, and loved ones she says fill the room during a session
  • A guided practice—rolling the energy—you can do in two minutes before you get out of bed
  • The screen technique: how to stay open to love without carrying everyone else’s journey
  • Why “lightening someone’s load” may actually dishonor their path
  • Entity energy, imprints, and what clearing a block really means
  • Tami’s hardest question: what about the people who did everything right and still died?
  • A closing prayer Laurie offers for every listener

Laurie’s conviction is that none of this is exotic. Everyone, she says, should be trained in energy healing the way everyone is trained in CPR—and everyone has the capacity to open to their own gifts.

Dr. Sue Morter: “The Energetic Architecture of A...

Twenty-six years ago, a chiropractor sitting in her first meditation class was transported into a field of light ten times brighter than the desert sun. Dr. Sue Morter, bestselling author of The Energy Codes, joins Tami Simon to map the energetic architecture behind that kind of awakening, and how the rest of us can build the inner circuitry to access it on purpose instead of by accident.

Dr. Sue earned her doctorate in chiropractic more than 40 years ago and has spent decades developing a body of work in bioenergetics—the study of how energy flows through, builds, and heals the body. She’s the founder of the Body Awake School of Yoga and the Morter Institute, an internationally recognized speaker, and the author of the new book The Anatomy of Awakening: The 5 Hidden Codes to Activate Self-Healing, Unlock Your Higher Consciousness, and Live Your Divine Destiny, which maps five additional energy centers beyond the familiar seven chakras.

In this conversation, Tami and Dr. Sue explore:

  • The spiritual experience that reoriented Dr. Sue’s entire career and, over time, helped resolve her lifelong scoliosis and migraines
  • Why “seeking enlightenment” misses the point, and why embodiment, not transcendence, is the real work
  • The five additional chakras beyond the traditional seven (eight through twelve), and what each one governs in our energetic architecture
  • How to build “energetic circuitry” at the site of a trigger instead of getting lost in its story
  • Spherical breathing and Mula Bandha as practical tools for grounding and stabilizing the nervous system
  • What it actually means to regulate your nervous system, and why trying too hard to do it can backfire

This episode is for anyone navigating a season of nervous system dysregulation, energy practitioners and bodyworkers, and listeners drawn to the chakra system who want a more embodied, practical approach to awakening.

Listen in for a guided practice you can use the next time you feel triggered, overwhelmed, or ungrounded.

Just One Question | Lama Rod Owens: How Can I Receive ...


Giving love comes easy, but can you actually receive it? Lama Rod Owens says most of us flinch at being cared for, even by something as simple as the chair we’re sitting in. In this practice from his book The New Saints, he walks us through what it takes to actually let love in.

Lama Rod Owens, a Black Buddhist Southern Queen, authorized lama in the Kagyu lineage of Tibetan Buddhism, and author of The New Saints: From Broken Hearts to Spiritual Warriors, guides Tami Simon (and all of us listening) through a short meditation on receiving care, drawn straight from the pages of his new book.

In this conversation, Tami and Lama Rod explore:

  • Feeling supported by the seat or ground beneath you
  • Recalling a time someone, or something, really loved you
  • Letting that love move through the body, including the grief it can stir up along the way
  • Imagining the whole universe wanting you safe, happy, and free
  • Gently returning to the body and closing the practice

This one’s for anyone who finds it easier to give love than to receive it, which, let’s be honest, is most of us.

Terri Cole: “Healing the Worthiness Wound”

Terri Cole calls it an invisible wound: the imprint left when a daughter never receives protection, presence, or emotional attunement from her father. This week, Tami Simon talks with Terri Cole—Sounds True’s own Boundary Boss—about her new book, Father Wound, and why even women with loving fathers can carry this wound without ever naming it.

Terri Cole, MSW, LCSW, is a licensed psychotherapist, relationship expert, and best-selling author who has spent nearly three decades helping people break dysfunctional patterns and build healthier relationships with themselves and others. With Sounds True, she is the author of the trilogy that began with Boundary Boss and continued with Too Much: A Guide to Breaking the Cycle of High-Functioning Codependency. Her newest book, Father Wound: Break Unhealthy Patterns to Reclaim Your Worth and Power, examines what happens when a father or father figure is absent, abusive, immature, or simply not emotionally attuned—and why daughters of patriarchy carry a version of this wound no matter what kind of father they had.

In this conversation, Tami and Terri explore:

  •  How to recognize a father wound even when “my father wasn’t that bad”
  • Why Terri defines the father wound as, at its root, a worthiness wound
  • The difference between self-parenting and re-parenting, and what healing your inner child looks like in daily decisions
  • The “father wound trance”: how old patterns resurface in adult relationships, and how to work with transference instead of being run by it
  • Mourning the Dream, Terri’s exercise for grieving the father you wished you’d had
  • Why healing this wound personally is tied to healing patriarchy at a collective, societal level

Who this episode is for: anyone doing inner child work, anyone who keeps finding themselves in the same relationship pattern and wondering why, and anyone ready to ask whether their sense of worth was shaped long before they had any say in it.
