In this episode of AWAKEN with Nathan, Nathan sits down with Michelle Villalobos, author, business coach, and the “Superstar Activator,” for a powerful conversation about spiritual awakening, surrender, emotional healing, and discovering who we truly are.
Michelle shares how losing her professional success, health, and relationships led to a radical awakening that completely transformed her life. Together, they explore the difference between surrender and giving up, breaking free from limiting beliefs, healing emotional wounds, and learning to trust life's uncertainties. They also discuss forgiveness, spirituality, the fear of death, and why true fulfillment comes from living authentically rather than constantly chasing achievement.

Can Gut Health Change Parkinson’s Symptoms? | Martha Carlin
2026/10/14
What would you do if someone you loved was diagnosed with Parkinson’s and told there was no cure?
In this episode of AWAKEN with Nathan, I sit down with Martha Carlin @mcarlin33 to hear the incredible story of how her husband John’s Parkinson’s diagnosis changed the direction of their lives.
Rather than accepting that there was nothing more they could explore, Martha began researching the connection between nutrition, gut health, the microbiome, and neurological disease.
We discuss the dietary changes they made, the improvements Martha observed in John's symptoms, and how her search for answers eventually led her into microbiome research and probiotic development.
We also explore the importance of sleep, the brain's natural waste-removal system, and why the everyday choices we make deserve more attention.
This conversation is about more than Parkinson’s. It’s about hope, curiosity, and taking an active role in your health—even when the road ahead feels uncertain.

From Fear to Freedom | Dr. Micheal Karlfeldt
2026/10/07
What if healing requires more than addressing what’s happening physically?
In this episode of AWAKEN with Nathan, I sit down with Dr. Michael Karlfeldt for a deep conversation about the connection between the subconscious mind, emotional trauma, nervous system, spirituality, identity, relationships, and physical health.
We explore why focusing exclusively on symptoms, environmental factors, or physical protocols may overlook other important pieces of the healing journey. Dr. Karlfeldt shares his perspective on how unresolved emotional experiences and subconscious beliefs can continue influencing our behaviors, stress responses, and overall well-being without us consciously realizing it.
We also discuss the role fear can play in the healing process. What happens when every supplement, diet, treatment, or lifestyle change is driven by fear of what might happen if you don’t do it? And how might that experience change when we begin approaching our health from a place of greater self-compassion, acceptance, purpose, and trust?
This conversation goes beyond physical health into some of life’s bigger questions: Who are you beneath your career, accomplishments, health status, and the roles you’ve attached yourself to? What happens when those identities change? And what does it look like to build a life around purpose, meaningful relationships, and a deeper connection with yourself?

Your Body Is Talking: Emotional Healing, the Nervous System & the Mind-Body Connection | Cathy Goldstein
2026/09/30
What if your symptoms aren’t simply problems to fight—but signals worth listening to?
In this episode of AWAKEN with Nathan, I sit down with Cathy Goldstein, holistic health practitioner and founder of Tru Energy Skincare, for a deep conversation about the connection between our emotional health, subconscious beliefs, nervous system, and physical well-being.
We explore why healing may require looking beyond the physical body and becoming curious about the emotional patterns and experiences we’ve carried throughout our lives.
Cathy shares her perspective on the body’s innate intelligence, why symptoms can sometimes provide valuable information, and how experiences from childhood may shape subconscious beliefs and coping mechanisms that continue influencing us as adults.
We also discuss emotional healing, nervous system regulation, muscle testing and kinesiology, the mind-body connection, addictive and self-protective behaviors, and why lasting change often requires more than searching for another quick fix.
Plus, Cathy shares a powerful perspective on aging—especially for women—and why getting older can be embraced as a season of greater wisdom, resilience, and personal power.

The Missing Pieces in Cancer Healing | Dr. Tony Jimenez
2026/09/23
In this episode of AWAKEN with Nathan, I sit down with Dr. Tony Jimenez to explore his integrative approach to cancer care and why he believes healing requires looking beyond the tumor to the whole person.
We discuss the connection between spiritual, emotional, and physical health, unresolved trauma, immune support, nutrition, environmental toxins, and the body’s innate healing mechanisms. Dr. Jimenez also shares his perspective on conventional cancer treatment and the importance of making informed decisions from a place of clarity rather than fear.

The Yoga They Never Taught You | Stacy McCarthy
2026/09/08
RSS Podcast Description
What if yoga has far less to do with touching your toes—and far more to do with discovering who you truly are?
In this episode of AWAKEN with Nathan, Nathan Crane sits down with internationally recognized yoga teacher and educator Stacy McCarthy (@yoga_namastacy) for a powerful conversation about yoga, healing, consciousness, and finding stillness in the middle of a chaotic world.
Stacy explores the deeper philosophy behind yoga and why the practice goes far beyond physical flexibility. Together, Nathan and Stacy discuss moving from feeling “wired or tired” into greater balance, regulating the nervous system, reconnecting with the joy and innocence we naturally experienced as children, and remembering that our stress, fear, anger, and past experiences are not our true identity.
They also dive into what it means to take 100% responsibility for your life without blaming yourself for the harm others have caused. Nathan and Stacy explore breaking generational patterns, moving from “victim mode” into “creator mode,” and choosing what you want to carry forward into your life and relationships.
This conversation is an invitation to slow down, look within, and remember that peace isn’t something we have to wait for the outside world to give us.
In this episode, you’ll discover:
Why yoga is about much more than physical flexibilityHow to find stillness even when life feels chaoticThe yogic concepts of Rajas, Tamas, and SattvaHow yoga can support nervous system regulation and greater balanceWhy taking responsibility is different from taking blameHow generational trauma and emotional patterns can be interruptedThe shift from victim mode to creator modeWhy your emotions and struggles are experiences—not your identityThe power of stillness to help you reconnect with your deeper selfAdd this to the bottom of the RSS description:CONNECT WITH NATHAN CRANEWebsite: https://nathancrane.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nathancraneofficial/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@NathanCrane Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/NathanCraneOfficial TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@nathancraneofficialAWAKEN with Nathan Subscribe and follow for more conversations on healing, spirituality, consciousness, relationships, and personal transformation.
Are you free? | Arturo Gaitan | AWAKEN with Nathan
2026/09/02
Are you actually making your own choices—or are you living from patterns, beliefs, and conditioning you don’t even realize are there?
In this episode of AWAKEN with Nathan, Nathan Crane sits down with @arturogaitanofficial for a deep conversation about freedom, karma, relationships, dreams, healing, and what it means to consciously create your future.
Arturo challenges some common ideas about spirituality and personal growth, including why he believes you should never try to help someone who hasn’t asked for it, how he understands karma as an exchange rather than simply “good” or “bad,” and why becoming aware of our conditioning is essential to experiencing true freedom.
They also explore the meaning Arturo gives to soulmates, twin flames, and power couples, why recurring dreams may contain important personal messages, and what actually allows a relationship to remain healthy and functional over time.
Nathan and Arturo discuss the importance of emotional intelligence, communication, money, love, having fun together, and taking responsibility for your own well-being rather than expecting another person to create your happiness.
Ultimately, this conversation comes back to one question:
What could your life look like if you became conscious of what has been controlling you—and intentionally chose what you want to create next?

Your Mind Could Be Keeping Your Body in Survival Mode
2026/08/26
What if healing the body also requires healing what’s happening within the mind?
In this episode of AWAKEN with Nathan, we explore how chronic stress, emotional wounds, unresolved trauma, and the inputs we consume can influence the nervous system and our overall well-being. From meditation and silence to Qigong and emotional healing, the conversation explores what can happen when we stop living in constant fight-or-flight and begin creating the internal conditions for healing.
One powerful takeaway: accept the diagnosis, but don’t let a prognosis define what you believe is possible.

You Don't Need More Stimulation! | AWAKEN with Nathan

People Don’t Need More Stimulation | AWAKEN with Nathan Crane
What if the constant stimulation we surround ourselves with is actually keeping us from experiencing the life we truly want?
In this episode of AWAKEN with Nathan Crane, Nathan explores what happens when we begin to move away from constant distraction, external validation, and the need to always be doing more. This conversation dives into the importance of slowing down, becoming present, and creating enough space to actually hear ourselves again.
Together, they explore how our modern lives can keep us disconnected from our bodies, emotions, and deeper sense of self. They discuss the difference between stimulation and true fulfillment, why stillness can feel so uncomfortable, and what can happen when we stop searching outside ourselves for the next thing to make us feel whole.
If you've ever felt overwhelmed by the pressure to constantly consume, achieve, scroll, or stay busy, this conversation is an invitation to reconnect with what matters most. Sometimes the answer isn't more information, more stimulation, or more effort. Sometimes it's learning how to be fully present with what's already here.
