162. Outliving Biohacking: The Biology of Joy, Connection, and Purpose

Dr. Shalane Carter contrasts an intensely optimized biohacker who is miserable with a spontaneous, socially connected person, arguing that peer-reviewed research suggests joy, laughter, meaning, and community predict longer life and better health. She clarifies she is not anti-health—sleep, nutrition, movement, and stress management matter—but says cultural obsession with protocols can create chronic stress, compulsions, anxiety, and loneliness that undermine longevity. Citing findings on loneliness increasing premature death risk, wellbeing reducing mortality risk, laughter boosting immune markers and lowering cortisol, and optimism extending lifespan, she reframes “outliving” as being fully alive now. She references Blue Zones research emphasizing family ties, communal meals, and belonging, and encourages listeners to prioritize connection, novelty, curiosity, purpose (ikigai), and saying yes to meaningful experiences over more supplements and metrics.Timestamps:00:00 Two Lives Compared02:26 Outliving Through Joy04:07 Recalibrating Wellness Culture06:46 Biohacking Benefits and Basics08:17 Optimization Stress Trap13:43 Loneliness Beats Biomarkers17:04 Joy as a Protocol18:12 Smiles Predict Lifespan20:01 Laughter Boosts Immunity26:06 Coherence and Quantum Biology27:37 Loneliness Risk Revisited29:31 Loneliness and Modern Life30:25 Wellbeing Predicts Longevity32:09 Meaning Over Optimization33:43 Oxytocin and Social Healing35:56 Community Beats Protocols36:35 Blue Zones Connection Secrets41:11 Joy as Clinical Medicine43:25 Novelty Curiosity and BDNF46:48 Optimism Adds Years48:41 Outliving in Daily Practice50:11 Laugh Love Risk Connect53:43 Weekly Challenge and FarewellConnect with Dr. Shalane on Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/dr.shalanecarter/You Are The Medicine Membership:https://www.skool.com/you-are-the-medicine-6666/aboutTake the "Which Chakra is Your Super Power in Business?"

161. Breaking the Script: From External Validation to Inner Alignment with Maggie Ledbetter

Maggie Ledbetter reflects on realizing they had been manifesting other people’s intentions and living a predetermined script centered on good grades, a good college, and a high-paying job at a respected company. They describe this as self-abandonment disguised as determination, dedication, or discipline, noting that someone can appear successful while hating their life. The conversation contrasts building a life that looks good on paper or Instagram with one that actually feels good to live. It also highlights how the body responds similarly to different stressors—whether a physical threat like a tiger, a boss scheduling constant last-minute meetings, having too much on one’s plate, or living out of alignment—producing the same physical results.Timestamps:00:00 Living Others Script00:05 The Success Pipeline00:36 Self Abandonment Drive00:42 Success Yet Miserable00:46 Looks Good vs Feels Good00:57 Stress Shows Up PhysicallyTelegram Break out of Burn out Group with Maggie Ledbetter:Connect with Dr. Shalane on InstagramYou Are The Medicine Membership:Take the "Which Chakra is Your Super Power in Business?"

160. Natural Health Revolution: Embracing Your Innate Healing Power

Dr. Shalane Carter introduces her “You Are The Medicine” membership as a searchable, app-like community on School designed to bridge gaps between Western medicine’s symptom-suppression model and holistic, whole-person healing. She explains how Western care often relies on billable diagnoses and lifelong medications, while traditions like Ayurveda, TCM, and homeopathy consider constitution, emotions, environment, and stress. She discusses the historical shift away from herbalism after the 1910 Flexner Report and argues people have been disempowered from ancestral remedy knowledge. After initially launching the program as a course in early 2026, she refunded members and rebuilt it into a living library organized by 25+ body systems and 50+ conditions with videos, remedy options, links, and a weekly community Q&A (“Tea Time”). She outlines three pricing tiers ($7, $27 founders, $97) and shares a personal example using Arnica and other natural tools for neck pain.Timestamps:00:00 Why Health Feels Hard01:51 Western Medicine Limits03:56 Whole Person Healing09:10 Flexner Report Shift12:37 The Missing Link15:57 Trust Your Body21:09 Neck Pain Case Study26:22 Building The App27:55 Inside The Library30:12 Community Focus36:48 Membership Tiers42:01 Natural Medicine Philosophy47:43 Launch And Next StepsConnect with Dr. Shalane on Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/dr.shalanecarter/You Are The Medicine Membership:https://www.skool.com/you-are-the-medicine-6666/aboutTake the "Which Chakra is Your Super Power in Business?"

159. Building a 'Third Place" Community: Inclusion, Leadership, and Intentional Connection with Meg Mashore

In this Be The Frequency interview, Dr. Shalane Carter speaks with Meg Mashore, co-founder of Common Ground Pottery and owner of Rox Management, about building community through a “Third Place” pottery studio. Meg shares that the studio was community-first and pottery-second, emphasizing inclusivity without trying to be for everyone, and the necessity of accepting failure, ego checks, and the pressure of stewarding a 24/7 space. They discuss how adult friendships are harder to form, why pottery uniquely grounds people away from technology, and how community can extend into supporting neighboring local businesses. Meg connects her drive for community to losing her mother, a family matriarch, and to COVID’s community loss, and reflects on parenting, grit, people-pleasing as control, and living with intention as the key to a fulfilled life.Time Stamps:00:00 Meet Meg Mashore01:37 Building Community Isn’t Easy04:57 Inclusive But Not For Everyone05:57 Third Place Theory10:14 Downsides and Pressure17:47 Why Adults Need Community23:43 Why Pottery Works27:41 Pottery As Workout28:19 Kids Classes And Adults29:33 Membership Tiers Waitlist30:06 Second Location Necessity31:39 Third Space Community32:55 Supporting Local Businesses34:10 Remembering Small Moments41:17 Trauma Trust Barriers43:59 Boarding School Community46:05 Motherhood Career Balance49:57 Starting Studio Later51:56 Teen Walks Connection53:40 Empty Nesting Feels54:32 Pottery Studio Origins55:29 Accidental Entrepreneurship56:45 Fear Bravery Pride01:00:05 Teaching Kids Grit01:03:01 Adversity Without Trauma01:05:51 Boarding School Confidence01:10:39 Not Being Liked01:13:59 People Pleasing Control01:19:51 Intentional Living WrapVisit commongroundpottery.com to check connect, find community and make pottery with Meg!Connect with Dr. Shalane on Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/dr.shalanecarter/Ascension Manual: A 90 Day Guide to a Higher Vibrational Living on Amazon:⁠https://amzn.to/3tUwOm1⁠Take the "Which Chakra is Your Super Power in Business?"

158. Soft Life Era vs. Avoidance: Why Your Body (and Business) Need Challenge | Hormesis, BDNF & Dopamine

Dr. Shalane Carter argues that the “soft girl era” is a needed correction to burnout but has also become, in healing and spiritual spaces, a permission slip to avoid growth by calling stagnation “rest” and dressing avoidance in language like alignment and feminine energy. She distinguishes genuinely restorative rest from avoidance that atrophies vitality, explaining that the body is designed for challenge through hormesis, where moderate stressors build strength. She describes how challenge, novelty, and exertion support brain adaptability via BDNF and how dopamine is tied to anticipation and effort, so removing effort flattens motivation and fulfillment. Drawing on yoga, exercise, and examples from an education founder challenging children physically, she frames difficulty as initiation that builds resilience and nervous system safety. She invites listeners to choose one manageable challenge they’ve been avoiding to reclaim aliveness without returning to hustle culture.Timestamps:00:00 Soft Life Reality Check03:28 Rest Versus Avoidance06:24 Hormesis Stress Makes Strong10:20 BDNF Challenge Grows Brain16:15 Dopamine Needs Effort20:01 Life Force Through Use22:13 Kids Wired For Challenge31:45 Feminine Power Not Passive39:50 Challenge As Initiation47:27 One Percent Stretch Practice52:05 Closing Resources And Next StepsConnect with Dr. Shalane on Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/dr.shalanecarter/Ascension Manual: A 90 Day Guide to a Higher Vibrational Living on Amazon:⁠https://amzn.to/3tUwOm1⁠Take the "Which Chakra is Your Super Power in Business?"

157. Making Bank as a Spiritual Entrepreneur with Brooke Welch, Energy Healer and Medium

Healer and Medium, Brooke Welch, on Energy Healing, Intuition, and Building a Profitable Spiritual Business Dr. Shalane Carter interviews Brooke Welch, an energy healer and medium who has built a six figure business and busted through the beliefs that spiritual people, and having spiritual gifts often means that you struggle financially. Brooke explains how spirits view being human as a gift, how ego drops after death, and how her clairsentient “psychic smell” and aura-reading help her sense ailments and negative energy and guide clearing work. They discuss how emotions and trauma can show up as physical symptoms, examples of symptoms improving after sessions, and influences like Louise L. Hay, traditional Chinese medicine, and Frederick Dodson’s consciousness scale. Brooke shares her money mindset, pricing as a way to attract committed clients, and announces her live comedy-mediumship show, The Medium Roast, on August 8 at Area 15 in Las Vegas.Timestamps:00:00 Meet Brooke Welsh00:42 Psychic vs Medium02:27 Lessons From Spirits03:55 Psychic Smell Explained06:33 Gifts Since Childhood08:57 Clearing Energy Attachments10:19 Symptoms and Root Causes12:36 Healing Stories14:44 Body Wisdom and Patterns16:27 Tools and Energy Scales18:37 Sensitivity Food and Fasting24:36 Authenticity and Being Human27:55 Service Wounds and Validation29:38 Charging Your Worth31:16 Pricing With Confidence31:35 Money Mindset Energy32:08 High Ticket Better Clients33:54 Good People Need Money34:54 Protect Your Vibration37:02 Reality TV And Books38:50 Creative Side Hustles39:49 The Medium Roast Show41:30 AI Future And Community44:12 Fear And Nervous System45:33 Purpose And Soulmates49:20 Healer Versus Psychic53:36 Rapid Fire Medium Qs55:54 Death And Baby Spirits57:45 Silence Secret To Life58:13 Wrap Up And PlugsConnect with Dr. Shalane on Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/dr.shalanecarter/Ascension Manual: A 90 Day Guide to a Higher Vibrational Living on Amazon:⁠https://amzn.to/3tUwOm1⁠Take the "Which Chakra is Your Super Power in Business?"

156. Detox, Trauma & Homeopathy: How to Heal Your Nervous System with Dr. Keri Franci (Naturopath)

Dr. Shalane Carter interviews naturopath Dr. Keri Franci from Grand Island, Nebraska, about practicing natural medicine in a region less familiar with it and how her own childhood illnesses led her into homeopathy, herbs, nutrition, and muscle testing through a chiropractor and her mother-in-law’s business, Alternative Answers. They discuss empowering parents to use gentle but powerful tools like muscle testing, and how detox and “drainage pathways” (gut, liver, kidneys, lymph, skin, lungs) underpin many chronic issues, which Keri says she has seen more post-COVID. Keri shares her experience with Lyme, and how addressing parasites, mold, and heavy metals can be part of recovery. They emphasize that healing is individualized, tied to nervous system regulation, trauma, beliefs, and environment, and that functional medicine is a partnership requiring personal work. Keri also mentions practices for aging well, including protein intake, detoxes, and copper peptides, and encourages listeners not to give up.Timestamps:00:00 Meet Dr Carrie01:03 Natural Medicine Culture03:14 Carrie Origin Story05:22 Empowering Parents07:02 Homeopathy Explained08:29 Detox Buzzwords10:31 Lyme Wake Up Call13:29 Trauma And Healing19:10 Agency And Information22:35 Environment And Frequency23:54 Leave Toxic Environments24:45 Career Stress Signals28:14 Symptoms Are Check Lights30:48 Aging Well Protocols31:53 Peptides And Quality Control36:49 Functional Medicine Partnership38:36 Mind Body Spirit Terrain41:49 Elevator Advice And Farewellalternativeanswersne.comConnect with Dr. Shalane on Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/dr.shalanecarter/Ascension Manual: A 90 Day Guide to a Higher Vibrational Living on Amazon:⁠https://amzn.to/3tUwOm1⁠Take the "Which Chakra is Your Super Power in Business?"

What if your money blocks aren't a mindset problem... they're a biology problem? In this episode, Dr. Shalane Carter breaks down the epigenetic science of ancestral financial trauma: how your grandmother's fear, your great-grandfather's persecution, and your lineage's survival strategies got chemically encoded into your DNA and are running your income ceiling right now. You'll learn the 5 most common ancestral money patterns in healers and spiritual entrepreneurs, why affirmations and mindset work alone can't touch a somatic imprint, and the step-by-step protocol for clearing these patterns at the level of the body.

154. Pelvic Floor PT and Support for Pregnancy, Postpartum & Babies with Dr. Kelsey Daniels

On the Be The Frequency podcast, Dr. Shalane Carter interviews Las Vegas pelvic floor physical therapist Dr. Kelsey Daniels, who provides mobile prenatal and postpartum care for moms and also treats babies when needed. They discuss how women’s health, especially pelvic floor issues like muscle separation and leakage, has been normalized and misserved despite existing resources, and why parents often need repeated, practical education rather than quick visits. Dr. Daniels shares how her background in pediatrics and her own postpartum experience with an OB who supported both her pelvic health and her baby inspired her to integrate pelvic health and infant care, collaborate with providers like chiropractors, and prioritize home and daycare visits for convenience and follow-through. They also cover building postpartum community through varied meetup styles, confidence and courage in motherhood and business, and the importance of knowing what you need first.Timestamps:00:00 Meet Dr Kelsey Daniels01:32 Infant Care Gaps03:22 Why Pelvic Health Matters04:58 Her Origin Story08:31 System Barriers10:37 Science Is Curiosity12:30 Motherhood Needs Support15:37 Babies Remember Birth17:30 Parents In The Room23:41 Home Visit Model25:54 Light And Hormones27:43 Values Over Volume28:37 Alternative Care Mindset29:25 Finding Your PT Lane29:53 Pelvic Health From Birth32:37 Hobbies Without Hustle34:36 Postpartum Community Blueprint36:22 Matching Moms To Groups38:02 Confidence Through Connection41:41 Working Mom Reality Check44:19 Mother's Day Expectations46:31 Know Yourself Takeaways49:14 Where To Find Dr Kelsey51:25 Elevator Wisdom FinaleConnect with Dr. Kelsey Daniels on IG:https://www.instagram.com/the.mobility.project/Visit Dr. Kelsey's website for more information: www.bemobile.liveConnect with Dr. Shalane on Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/dr.shalanecarter/Ascension Manual: A 90 Day Guide to a Higher Vibrational Living on Amazon:⁠https://amzn.to/3tUwOm1⁠Take the "Which Chakra is Your Super Power in Business?"

153. The Quantum Biology Behind Why Your Body Heals Itself

Your cells are emitting light right now. Measurable, coherent, biophotonic light and the science of how your body uses that light to heal itself has existed for decades. In this episode, Dr. Shalane Carter breaks down the quantum biology behind energy medicine and homeopathy, explains why natural medicine was systematically erased from mainstream education (hint: it was never about safety), and gives you the science to stand fully in what you already know is true.
