What happens when an Air Force intelligence briefer turns into a mystic explorer and discovers his soul’s assignment? This week on The Inciting Incident, I get to sit down with Josiah Brandt, founder of the School of Imagination and modern-day steward of Neville Goddard’s teachings. What begins as a story of ambition and military precision soon becomes a tale of mystical initiation, near-death revelation, and the quiet but seismic moment when imagination becomes our most sacred tool.

When William Trubridge dives into the ocean’s depths, he leaves more than the surface behind—he lets go of time, thoughts, even the sensation of having a body. In this episode, I got to sit down with William to learn how freediving became a gateway not just to world records, but to profound states of consciousness, stillness, and surrender. He opens up about the spiritual experience of falling into the abyss, the mental techniques he’s developed to stay calm under extreme pressure, and a concept he calls the “mental immune system.”

This week, Dr. Laura Berman - Oprah’s go-to sex therapist, bestselling author, and spiritual explorer - joins me for an unfiltered, soul-baring conversation that swings from the ecstatic to the excruciating.

In this episode, we explore how our deepest wounds become our greatest awakenings, why sacred sex is more than just technique, and how losing her son catalyzed a soul-deep mission to help others heal.

In this episode of The Inciting Incident, I get to speak with Dr. Anna Yusim, a Stanford- and Yale-trained psychiatrist, bestselling author, and executive coach to Fortune 500 CEOs and Olympic athletes, about her unexpected transformation from a left-brained math prodigy into a global spiritual seeker. She shares stories from her path: studying with shamans, experiencing powerful synchronicities, discovering Kabbalah through a dream, and working with high-achievers who silently carry deep emotional wounds.

Together, we explore the hidden forces guiding our lives, the bridge between psychology and spirituality, and how trauma, intuition, embodiment, and even telepathy are shifting the future of mental health care.

At 17, Hemal Patel thought he’d become a doctor. What he didn’t expect was a path that would weave together molecular biology, philosophy, Catholicism, and meditation.

In this episode of The Inciting Incident, Dr. Hemal and I dive into the intersection of science and spirituality, the mysteries of mitochondria, and his groundbreaking work with Dr. Joe Dispenza on the mind’s ability to influence biology.

Blending rigorous science with deep introspection, this episode explores what happens when the mind, body, and spirit align and why the future of wellness may lie in the space where faith and physiology meet.
