Different Perspectives in Chinese Medicine & Integrative Medicine
Launching Spring 2025
Calling all healers and in-the-closet healers
Gather around
Imagine sitting around a warm, cozy fire allowing your voice, visions, and dreams to be shared with ease and openness. Imagine learning, laughing, and growing with others who also have a different vision for our current model of medicine, who understand the importance of the spiritual alongside the science, who have never felt like they belong, no matter how much they've fit it.
​
The problem is, many of us...the healers, seekers, storytellers, visionaries, and spiritually guided...have forced ourselves to learn languages, spend a lot of time and money getting degrees and certifications, and to find ways to fit in--even when the cells in our bodies, the voice in our hearts, and the stirring within tells us otherwise. We crave authentic connection, to express our visions freely, and to be received with curiosity, openness, and possibility. We are willing to do the hard work of self-growth, healing, and spiritual awakening for our own and collective liberation but, more likely, because we know no other way.
​
Yinspired podcast is your virtual, warm, cozy fire where we gather and celebrate the unseen, possibility, the underrepresented, and the yin.
You're invited to join us in these casual and authentic conversations healers, seekers, and the spiritually inclined have among themselves.
You're invited to join us as we bring much-needed voice and representation to different perspectives in Chinese Medicine, Integrative Medicine, and healing. The conversations with everyday practitioners, students, visionaries, healers, and traditional medicine practitioners from around the globe living their lives in extraordinary ways, will open your heart and mind to the unseen life forces influencing our lives in subtle, and not-so-subtle, ways.
​
Together, we will tend to the yin in a yang-centric world.
​
​

The Mission
To shift paradigms in healing and medicine while uplifting yin in a yang-centric world one conversation at a time.

The Vision
A world where the unseen forces in life and medicine are honored and practiced, allowing for personal and collective connection and healing.
About Yinspired
In a Yang-centric world, where more is better, independence is valued over interdependence, materialism is on a pedestal, profits are more important than people, and hustle culture reigns, it is time to honor, give voice to, and tend to the Yin.
​​
​Here at Yinspired, we believe
-
there is a lot of suffering in the world, which means there is a lot of potential for healing.
-
storytelling, laughter, and radical honesty are healing.
-
healing, like life, is not linear and is a messy, non-perfect, joyous, painful, and liberating journey.
-
the perspective and philosophy of Yin-Yang provide a practical lens to view these chaotic times.
-
it's time for all the healers, in all their ways, to share their gifts with the world.
-
the world is waiting for your unique gifts and talents to be shared for our collective healing.

Why this podcast now?
​
Modernization has left us without close circles of women mentors and communities of care where wisdom is lived and passed on through daily interactions. In this podcast, we gather around and have conversations from the heart and gut.
We will not shy away from “taboo” topics. Through a lens of an inextricable connection to Earth, the Cosmos, the unseen forces in our lives, and yin yang, we will explore mental-emotional health, health disparities, health equity, pain, body positivity, "isms," media’s influence on our health beliefs, motherhood, poop, pee, menstrual cycles, smells, and all the other parts of being human society tells us to ignore or calls “gross.” We will go beyond "the right way" or the "proper way" and explore the dynamics of what is.
Through the power of stories, curiosity, and being real with each other, we will show how healing, self-growth, and learning can reduce our suffering and liberate us from our inner knots. [Cue the ripple effects into our families, friends, and communities]
These conversations and stories are meant to build a bridge and normalize unspoken topics, mend our disconnections, widen our perspective on medicine and healing, help us befriend our bodies, minds, emotions, pain, and our past so we can heal and liberate ourselves personally, and collectively. The vision is for these conversations to mend a broken healthcare system and shift the paradigm of what is possible personally and collectively.
Together, we’ll destigmatize the unseen, the spiritual, the subtle, and taboo topics.
​
Together, we’ll make amends and continue to heal and awaken.
​
Together, we’ll learn from each other through tears, laughter, disagreements, and love.
​
Together, we will make a difference, one extraordinary conversation at a time.

The vibes of this podcast
It's time to get real
Podcasts have been truly empowering, healing, and connecting for me. I love the medium and can't wait to bring together a laid-back, around-the-fire-with-your-favorite-hot-drink-in-hand vibe, having heart-to-heart conversations with my guests. I've had these conversations weekly for decades with people I've just met or people I've known for decades. Almost every time I am told, "I wish more people would talk about this." There is a sense of being alone or being a lone wolf. You can fit in but you don't feel like you belong. There is a deep desire for authenticity and living in a new paradigm that is more balanced, not just perpetuating the wheels of harm and dominance. This podcast aims to be those conversations and to let you and others know, you are not alone. You feel different because you are different. That's not something to hide. That's something to celebrate!
With that said, I want to share a little more of the vibes of this podcast to make sure you feel in alignment as a guest.​

Inspired by Krista Tippett’s “ON BEING” unedited podcasts, this podcast will have limited editing so listeners feel like they are in the room with us, sitting around a fire, or going on a walk together. This also is a way of showing to others that “good enough” is more than enough and re-establishes the model of harmony in our lives. Don’t worry, audio quality is really important to me.
-
Inviting. People are welcome just as they are, right where they are in their journey.
-
Global Learning. I invite you to share a short welcome or introduction in the language of your choice (first or preferred), as well as English. I would also love to learn your understanding of life force energy (qi and prana) from your cultural experiences or knowledge. If applicable, please share with us ways the wellness industry may be doing harm to cultural medicines and sacred practices and what you would like to share with others about this colonization or appropriation.
-
Inspiring. I hope listeners take these topics and conversations (many are considered taboo) into their lives, families, and communities. We’ve lost the community model of living where wisdom, traditions, and stories are passed down through generations by just hanging out with each other. Let’s give people around the globe a place to think outside the box; the box everyone tries to put them in. Let’s free each other! As I call it, UNLEASHING!
-
Actionable. I’d love guests to share an actionable step, easy-to-do practice, or self-inquiry question for our listeners. If you have something people can download (meditation, ebook, etc) for free on your website, we can promote it on the podcast.
-
Connecting the audience to YOU and your amazing work. There will always be opportunities to share your work, events, and offerings with our listeners at the end of our time together and in the show notes.

FAQs for Guests
You’re reading this far! Jazz hands and high fives. Thank you! Here are a few more things I would want to know if someone asked me to be a guest.
-
Is there payment or compensation? At this time, I do not have funds or money to pay you for this time together as we connect, talk, and chat. As part of our conversation together, I will make sure you get a chance to promote your work and how to connect with you. I want to include a photo of you on the podcast website, bio, links to ALL your social media and media platforms (if applicable), links to your courses or offerings, and help expand your community (if that is something you want).
-
How much time do you expect each interview/chat to last? 1-2 hours, depending on your time availability. Each guest’s interview will have 2 parts. Part 1 will be about you and your story of how you got to where you are now so the audience can get to know you and build virtual rapport. Part 2 will highlight a topic the guest wants others to know about. This topic is of your choice and something you’re really passionate about sharing. I will not necessarily record them separately but want you to get a sense of how the time together will be spent.
-
How will this content be used? All interviews will be video and audio recorded so they can be released on a podcast platform (listening only) and YouTube for those who prefer and need closed captioning. After our time together if you decide you do not want me to use our interview, you will have 72 hours to decide. With that said…
-
Are there forms to fill out? Yes, if you want to be a guest, I have participation forms for you to fill out, sign, and get back to me prior to our interview. I will not host our session until the forms are signed.
Still have questions?
