Michael Singer, Tony Robbins, Sage Robbins: Wisdom Unt...


There are 200 questions in Michael Singer’s new book. But according to Singer, life is ultimately asking you only one: Are you willing to let go?

This week, Tami Simon speaks with Singer—beloved author of The Untethered Soul and Living Untethered—alongside transformational teachers Tony Robbins and Sage Robbins for a special interview celebrating the release of Wisdom Untethered: The Time for Questions. What unfolds is more than a book launch. It’s a masterclass in the interior life, led by three of the most profound voices on spiritual freedom alive today.

Join Tami, Michael, Tony, and Sage to explore:

  • Why letting go is not passive resignation but a lifelong practice of relaxation, release, and inner freedom
  • The difference between intuition and mental projection—and how to quiet the mind enough to hear the deeper knowing
  • The highest form of prayer—and why “thy will be done” points to something far more powerful than asking for what you want
  • Working with fear compassionately: how to stop suppressing it and start raising it up
  • Michael’s invitation to “lay down and let it wash over you”—a radical approach to emotions too intense to transcend
  • Why every single moment is literally unique in the universe—and how that recognition changes everything

Whether you’ve read The Untethered Soul a dozen times or are encountering Michael Singer’s teachings for the first time, this interview offers both the breadth and the intimacy of a teaching that can only come from someone who has fully lived it.

E177: Handling Reality—The True Path to Inner Peace

Suffering arises because we try to make reality match our conditioned preferences, which are based on past experiences stored in the mind and heart. By identifying with these inner patterns, we become reactive, disturbed, and unable to find lasting peace. Liberation comes from stepping back into the seat of awareness, handling reality without resistance, and consistently letting go of stored impressions so they no longer control our lives.

Richard Davidson & Cortland Dahl: “Flourishing ...


The world’s mental health crisis is real, but so is your capacity to meet it. What if the skills that lead to genuine flourishing are already built into you, waiting to be activated?

This week, Tami Simon speaks with Richard Davidson—one of the most highly cited scientists in the world and a pioneer in the neuroscience of emotion and meditation—and Cortland Dahl, contemplative scientist, Buddhist translator, and co-founder of Tergar International, about their new book, Born to Flourish: How New Science and Ancient Wisdom Reveal a Simple Path to Thriving. Drawing on decades of research with long-term meditators, guidance from the Dalai Lama, and the world’s wisdom traditions, they offer a science-backed framework for wellbeing that is both profound and surprisingly accessible.

Join Tami, Richard, and Cortland to explore:

  • Why flourishing is a skill—not a personality trait or a stroke of luck—and how we know this from hard scientific data
  • The four pillars of wellbeing: awareness, connection, insight, and purpose—and why two of them have been largely ignored by Western science
  • What it means to be “born to flourish” and the research on infants that proves it
  • How just five minutes a day of intentional practice—piggybacked onto everyday activities—can produce measurable changes in behavior and biology
  • Why flourishing doesn’t mean happiness: you can grieve, rage, or struggle and still be flourishing
  • The role of neuroplasticity in reshaping our relationship to anxiety, reactivity, and negative narrative
  • Why flourishing is contagious—and why that matters more than ever right now

If the world feels like it’s falling apart, Richard and Cortland make a compelling, evidence-based case that the path forward is not as hard as you think.

E176: From Distraction to Liberation—The True Spirit...

You are not your thoughts, emotions, or experiences—you are the consciousness that is aware of them. Spiritual growth is the process of ceasing to be distracted by all the inner commotion and learning to let go of the stored blockages that keep you identified with the personal self. When you release these blockages, consciousness naturally expands back into the state of freedom, peace, and unity.

Richard Schwartz and Tamala Floyd: Healing Across Gene...


What if the anxiety, grief, or fear you’ve struggled with for years is a burden you inherited—not one you earned?

This week, Tami Simon speaks with Richard Schwartz—founder of Internal Family Systems and author of the bestselling No Bad Parts—and Tamala Floyd, psychotherapist, IFS lead trainer, and author of Listening: When Parts Speak: A Practical Guide to Healing with IFS Therapy and Ancestor Wisdom. Together, they explore how IFS and ancestral healing converge to help us release intergenerational trauma at its root.

Join Tami, Dick, and Tamala to explore:

  • What “legacy burdens” are in IFS—and how to recognize when what you’re carrying came from someone else
  • How personal, ethnic, and cultural legacy burdens operate differently—and why racism, historical trauma, and collective suffering require their own healing
  • The concept of the “well ancestor”: why every lineage has one, and how to invite them into your healing
  • Heirlooms vs. burdens: how our ancestral lines carry gifts as well as wounds—and how to receive them
  • Why legacy burdens are often easier to release than personal ones—and what fear most commonly gets in the way
  • Tamala’s guided ancestral meditation, offered live: a practice for releasing what no longer serves you
  • What we offer future generations simply by doing our own inner work

The episode includes a full guided meditation led by Tamala Floyd—drawn directly from her ancestors—that listeners can return to again and again.

E175: Letting Go of Yourself—The Real Spiritual Path

Spiritual growth is not about reaching for higher states; it’s about releasing the ego that keeps pulling you down. The mind and heart are conditioned by past experiences, and reacting to them creates endless suffering. By observing and letting go instead of resisting or controlling, you naturally rise into peace and alignment with something greater.
