Get Obsessed : With Living Your Best Life
Get Obsessed : With Living Your Best Life
Julie Lokun and Mika Altidor
What happens when two women who refuse to play small sit down with the people actually changing the world — and the ones brave enough to tell the stories most shows won't touch? You get The Get Obsessed Podcast — a show built for people who are hungry for more truth, more transformation, and more proof that the life they're imagining is actually possible. Hosted by Julie Lokun and Mika Altidor, this is the podcast for dreamers who are done dreaming and ready to move. Julie is a legal advocate, entrepreneur, and mother of four who has spent years studying what it truly takes to succeed. Mika is a fierce business owner and meditation facilitator obsessed with self-development who knows what it takes to turn a life around. Together they bring zero filters, radical honesty, and an unshakable belief that you were built for more than you've been told. We go places other podcasts won't. We have explored the inner world of Scientology — the beliefs, the pull, the controversy, and what it means for the people inside it. We sat with Janelle Brown from TLC's Sister Wives and went deep into what it really looks like to live outside the lines of what society calls normal, to question everything, and to find your own definition of family and freedom. Dr. Christine Marie, featured in the #1 Netflix documentary Trust Me: The False Prophet, joined us to unpack manipulation, control, and how even the smartest people can be led astray — and more importantly, how to find your way back. These are not comfortable conversations. They are necessary ones. And then there are the guests who show up to teach you how to build. Gary Vaynerchuk on turning obsession into empires. Evan Carmichael on finding your purpose and never letting go. David Meltzer on staying grateful and driven when the odds are stacked against you. Jim Kwik, author of Limitless, on unlocking what your mind is actually capable of. Dr. Laura Berman — Oprah's go-to love expert — on grief, healing, and choosing to keep living fully. Dr. Nadine Macaluso on trauma and reclaiming your story. Dr. Sherrie Campbell on breaking free from toxic relationships for good. Gina DeVee, the woman who inspired this show to exist, on building a life entirely on your own terms. Kim D. from The Real Housewives and Lt. Joe Kenda, the Homicide Hunter, on the stories that shape us. At the heart of every episode is one question: how do we actually live our best life — not the curated version, not the one we perform for others, but the real one? The one that lights us up, challenges us, and makes us feel fully alive. That is what we are building here, one conversation at a time. New episodes every week.

Unlocking the Unknown: Exploring Out-of-Body Journeys with Stefano Siciliano
On the Get Obsessed podcast, host Mika Altidor interviews Stefano Siciliano, an American lifelong personal-growth seeker who began having spontaneous out-of-body experiences (OBEs) around age seven or eight and later learned what they were through Robert Monroe’s books, trained with Monroe and the Monroe Institute, and helped bring its technology to Eastern Bloc countries after the Soviet Republic collapsed; he now supports and endorses Darius J. Wright’s work. Stefano says OBEs are normal and common: the soul leaves the body during sleep, with dreams as minimal consciousness, lucid dreams as more awareness, and OBEs as full consciousness, achievable through “mind awake, body asleep,” akin to deep meditation. He describes profound life changes from consciously seeing the body, including reduced fear of death and loss, and frames adversity as purposeful contrast that can create “availability” for transformation amid today’s societal chaos. He directs listeners to DariusJWright.com and YouTube for more.
