In this profound and thought-provoking episode, I sit down with Dr. Azin Nasseri — International Psychologist, Author, and Licensed Clinician — to explore the emerging concept of spiritual intelligence and what it reveals about the nature of the human being.At the heart of this conversation is a powerful origin story.Dr. Nasseri shares a vivid dream from 1994—an experience so real it felt like crossing into another world. Yet as he reflects, the dream itself was not the meaning… but what unfolded in the years that followed. This insight becomes central to the episode:👉 Not every spiritual experience is meant to be interpreted literally—👉 But every experience can shape our development🧠 Spiritual Intelligence: A New FrontierDr. Nasseri introduces spiritual intelligence as a developing framework in psychology—one that integrates science, lived experience, and spiritual wisdom.Just as emotional intelligence reshaped modern psychology, spiritual intelligence invites us to explore:meaningpurposegrowthand the deeper dimensions of human experience⚖️ Two Models of Human NatureA key distinction explored in this episode:Bipartite ModelHuman experience = brain + bodyConsciousness is a product of neurochemistryTripartite ModelHuman being = body + mind + soulThe soul is a non-material realityIllness may affect the brain and consciousness—but not the soul itselfThis shift changes how we understand identity, suffering, and healing.🌿 Dreams, Intuition & DiscernmentHow do we interpret powerful inner experiences without being misled?Dr. Nasseri emphasizes:Dreams can be meaningful—but not always literalIntuition can be influenced by wishful thinking or past experienceTrue clarity requires balanceHe introduces four pathways of knowing:SensesIntellectSacred teachingsSpiritual insightTogether, these form a grounded process of search and discovery.📖 A Guide for the JourneyThroughout the episode, we reflect on The Seven Valleys and its expanded form, The Call of the Divine Beloved by Baha'u'llah.These writings serve as a guide for human development—mapping stages of growth, transformation, and ultimately, alignment with a higher purpose.📖 Read here:https://www.bahai.org/library/authoritative-texts/bahaullah/call-divine-beloved/4#474041477In This Episode, We Explore:🔹 The dream that sparked a lifetime of inquiry🔹 Why not all spiritual experiences should be taken literally🔹 Bipartite vs. Tripartite models of human nature🔹 Why the soul remains untouched by illness🔹 How to distinguish intuition from projection🔹 The four pathways of knowing🔹 Spiritual intelligence as a practical, lived framework💬 This episode is for anyone navigating spiritual experiences and seeking clarity, grounding, and deeper understanding.🎧 Listen NowEpisode 28 is now available on:SpotifyYouTubeThe YAM Blog (on my website)📚 Explore the WorkSpiritual Intelligence: A New Frontier — Cultivating Seven Core Capacities for a Flourishing and Meaningful LifeOrder the book to follow along with the conversation🤝 Connect with Dr. Azin NasseriInstagram: @azinnasseriYouTube: @transformativepsychologyLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dr-azin-nasseri-5628b7a6Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/share/18k4WGBXGP/?mibextid=wwXIfr📌 Connect With Us📸 Instagram: @the_yampodcast | @yogaavecmoi▶️ YouTube: Yoga Avec Moi Channel🌐 https://www.yogaavecmoi.com/yampodcast

🎙️ Embracing Virtue and Resetting During Pregnancy: A Conversation with Megna Mystery — Episode 27 of The YAM PodcastIn this intimate and healing episode, I sit down with Megna Mystery — writer, mother, and community storyteller — to explore how pregnancy’s intense challenges can become portals to deeper self-reflection and transformation.Megna bravely shares her personal journey through hyperemesis gravidarum, a severe and often isolating condition that challenged her sense of identity and well-being. She describes how this experience pushed her to embrace daily practices of self-forgiveness, spiritual reset, and aligning with virtues that nourish the soul.We reflect on the power of using tools like the Virtues Project — a character education initiative that inspires the daily practice of moral excellence — to cultivate a sense of grounded purpose, especially during times of upheaval. Megna’s vivid image of “third-eye resets” becomes a metaphor for pausing, breathing, and stepping into each new moment with clarity and grace.In This Episode, We Explore:🔹 Megna’s journey with hyperemesis gravidarum and the lessons it revealed🔹 The role of daily virtues-based reflections in navigating overwhelming seasons🔹 How visualizing a “third-eye reset” can help shift energy and open new possibilities🔹 The difference between resetting and forgetting: integrating reflection with self-compassion🔹 Why virtue — moral excellence — is a foundation for healing and community-building🔹 How to carry the message of virtues into homes, communities, and workplaces💬 This episode is for anyone who has faced a season of profound challenge — whether in pregnancy, parenting, or simply in life — and seeks a gentle reminder that you can begin again, at any moment.📺 Watch the Full Episode on YouTube:🔔 Episode 27 — Embracing Virtue and Resetting During Pregnancy with Megna Mystery📍Also available on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and all major platforms🧘‍♀️ Want to learn more about The Virtues Project?

🎙️ Episode 24: Intuitive Eating & Emotional Healing — Navigating Food, Culture, and Motherhood with Raz GrammerIn this soulful and thought-provoking episode of The YAM Podcast, I sit down with registered dietitian Raz Grammer to explore the nuanced intersections of food, identity, emotional health, and motherhood.While Raz’s formal training centers around nutrition science (her thesis explored the effects of apples and plums on bone density), her real-life relationship with food is anything but clinical. It’s intuitive, cultural, tender — and deeply human. In this conversation, she invites us into the heart of her kitchen, her motherhood, and her healing.We talk about the emotional layers that live in our relationship with food — especially as mothers. How grief and control can show up on our plates. How children have a deep wisdom when it comes to food, and how we as parents can create a supportive environment that honours both body and soul.Raz also opens up about her personal evolution — from being the kind of person who needed a plan, to becoming someone who could lean into flow, trust, and deep listening. It’s a shift many of us are craving… and she models it with such grace.💬 This episode is less about food rules, and more about food wisdom. Less about doing it “right,” and more about doing it real.In This Episode, We Explore:🔹 Why intuitive eating is more than just a method — it’s a mindset🔹 How motherhood reshapes our relationship to control, nourishment, and rest🔹 The invisible stories we carry around food, especially in different cultures🔹 Science and intuition — and how they can coexist at the table🔹 The grief that sometimes underlies our food patterns🔹 Creating connection, permission, and healing through how we feed ourselves and our childrenRaz brings curiosity, depth, and calm — plus a book list you’ll want to dive into immediately (scroll down for that!). Whether you’re navigating your own healing, raising intuitive eaters, or just craving a more grounded relationship with food — this episode offers a warm, thoughtful pause.🎥 Watch the Full Episode on YouTube:📺 Yoga Avec Moi Global Nutrition Conference — Day 5 with Raz Grammer📺 Alternate YouTube Link: Watch Episode 24 here🎧 Full podcast episode also available on:Spotify | Apple Podcasts | and all your favorite platforms📚 Books Raz Mentions:Breakthrough Intuition by Rosemary Ellen GuileyThe Intuitive Way by Penney PeirceIntuitive Eating by Evelyn Tribole & Elyse ReschMindfulness: The Power of Mindful Learning by Ellen J.

But what if food could be intuitive? Healing? Emotional? Spiritual?This episode is your reminder that nourishment is more than nutrients. It’s about how we feel. How we feed ourselves and our families with presence. How we release control, welcome grace, and honor what’s true for us in each season.📌 Know someone navigating their food story or looking to raise intuitive eaters? Share this episode.

🎙️ Episode 23: A Second Birth, a Miscarriage & the Making of a Super Solid Mom Friendwith Carly El KassabyIn this tender and honest episode of The YAM Podcast, I sit down once again with Carly El Kassaby to explore the next chapter in her motherhood journey — one shaped by empowered birth, deep loss, and the quiet creation of a movement rooted in real, unfiltered connection.Carly’s second birth took place in the U.S., in a hospital, supported by compassionate professionals — but the power didn’t come from the setting. It came from within. After a traumatic first experience (shared in Episode 22), Carly stepped into this birth with a quiet knowing: she was the one doing it. This time, she felt supported and sovereign. It was a birth story written in her own voice — and it became a powerful reclaiming of trust, strength, and self.But life had more to unfold. What followed was a miscarriage — quiet, painful, and held mostly in silence. As she moved through grief while parenting two young children, Carly began to notice how few spaces truly existed for mothers to be raw, imperfect, and emotionally honest.And so, she birthed something new: @supersolidmomfriend — a space where moms can show up as they are, be held in their mess, and find comfort in the company of others who get it.This episode is not just about birth or loss — it’s about the in-between. The invisible transitions. The strength found in softness. And the reminder that motherhood doesn’t always ask for perfection — it asks for presence.In This Episode, We Explore:🔹 What it means to reclaim your power in birth, even in a hospital setting🔹 How miscarriage reshapes motherhood and identity🔹 The invisible grief that so many mothers carry silently🔹 Why emotional honesty is the foundation of real mom friendships🔹 The origin story of Super Solid Mom Friend🔹 How connection becomes a form of healingCarly brings her signature blend of humor, heart, and deep insight — offering listeners a moment to breathe, reflect, and remember that we’re allowed to do motherhood in our own way.🎥 Watch the Full Episode on YouTube📺 Episode 23 on YouTube🎧 Also available on Spotify, Apple Podcasts & your favorite podcast platforms🌐 Show notes + all episodes: www.yogaavecmoi.com/yampodcast🎬 Watch Carly’s Featured Videos:🎤 The Rap of Moms → https://youtu.be/IHc4-7B-Z1k🌀 How Motherhood Brings Up Perfection → https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mNJ2R3Fj0yY✨ Connect with Carly:📸 Instagram (Personal): @carlyk20📸 Instagram (Project): @supersolidmomfriend📘 Facebook: Carly Thaggard▶️ YouTube: Carly ThaggardWhy This Conversation MattersThere are so many parts of motherhood that don’t get named — especially the parts that happen after loss, after birth, or in the quiet hours when no one’s watching.This conversation is a call back to presence — and a reminder that even in grief, even in uncertainty, you are still becoming. Still growing. Still held.If you’ve ever felt like you had to keep it all together… this one’s for you.✨ Nahal is wearing earrings from @yamstudiox — because even in the mess, beauty belongs.📌 Know someone processing a miscarriage or navigating motherhood after loss?

In this powerful episode of The YAM Podcast, I sit down with Carly El Kassaby to explore two birth stories that unfold on opposite ends of the spectrum — one filled with surrender to chaos, the other rooted in healing, choice, and quiet strength.Carly’s first birth took place in Montenegro, where she was met with language barriers, cultural gaps, and unexpected interventions — including a missed IV, a surprise enema, and a nurse calmly repeating “No problem” as her body pushed through contractions and confusion. It was a birth she didn’t feel she “did right,” and one that left her with lingering self-doubt.Her second birth in the U.S. was a reclamation. With the support of a compassionate midwife who told her, “You can do it. You will do it. And then you’ll decide,” Carly stepped into a new story — one of empowerment, autonomy, and trust. She gave birth on her own terms and emerged with a renewed sense of strength she didn’t know she still had.This episode is about more than birth — it’s about what happens when a woman returns to her own knowing after a moment that took it away.In This Episode, We Explore:🔹 What it’s like to give birth abroad when language and expectations don’t align🔹 The emotional aftermath of birth trauma and how it shows up in later pregnancies🔹 The importance of midwifery care rooted in validation and agency🔹 Why so many women silently carry the belief they didn’t “do birth right”🔹 The quiet power of reclaiming your birth story — even years later🔹 The sacred reminder that you can do it — and that you’re allowed to define what that meansCarly shares with a mix of humor, honesty, and deep insight — offering every listener a moment to reflect on the stories we hold about our own strength, and how we can soften them into something truer.🎥 Watch the Full Episode on YouTube📺 https://youtu.be/9C0QBQVyx_c🎧 Also available on Spotify, Apple Podcasts & your favorite podcast platformsWhy This Conversation MattersSo many women birth in silence. Not just the physical act — but the emotional landscape that follows.This conversation is a reminder that birth doesn’t have to be perfect to be sacred. And even if your first experience left you feeling powerless, there is always a path to come home to yourself — through the body, through presence, through voice.Whether you’re preparing for birth, healing from one, or simply holding space for others — this episode will meet you where you are.✨ Nahal is wearing earrings from @yamstudiox — because even in the mess, beauty belongs.📌 Know someone who’s processing their own birth story?

In this eye-opening episode of The YAM Podcast, I sit down once again with Chirag Davi, a storyteller and truth-seeker, to explore the deeper wisdom of Ekadashi fasting—a bi-monthly, moon-aligned spiritual practice that invites ongoing clarity, energy renewal, and deeper connection to the body.While many of us approach fasting as a seasonal or religious ritual—like the Baha’i Fast or Ramadan—this episode explores what it means to live the fast, to carry the benefits beyond the 19 or 30 days, and to align ourselves with the moon’s natural rhythm.Fasting is often misunderstood as extreme or unsustainable—but what if it was the most gentle, intelligent thing you could do for your body?In This Episode, We Explore:🔹 What happens inside the body after 8.1 hours of fasting (when the magic begins)🔹 How the body shifts from glucose to fat-burning—and unlocks the “treasure box”🔹 Why the 16–24 hour fasting window is key for deep healing and immune regeneration🔹 How T-cells and B-cells are produced in starvation mode—and why this matters for long-term health and disease prevention🔹 Why Ekadashi—fasting on the 11th day after each new and full moon—offers a sacred, accessible rhythm to fast all year🔹 The deeper why of fasting: presence, clarity, devotion, and embodied awareness🔹 What most people get wrong about the Baha’i Fast—and how to bring intention to your fast, no matter your faith🔹 How to make fasting livable, especially for women and modern rhythmsChirag brings deep reverence and grounded wisdom, sharing fasting insights that blend science, soul, and practicality. His gentle storytelling invites you to view fasting not as deprivation, but as a form of preventive maintenance—a sacred pause for your body and spirit.🎥 Catch Our Previous Conversations with Chirag Davi:📺 Episode: Connecting the Baha’i Fast with Yogic Fasting | Ekadashi: Fasting on the 11th Day of the MonthWatch here → https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xuH2lHl_1OY📺 Episode: The Importance of Breaking the Ekadashi Fast SlowlyWatch here → https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C8HwbTRe0sYMeet Chirag DaviChirag Davi is a conscious communicator, spiritual seeker, and integrative thinker, known for his ability to bring ancient practices into relatable, modern conversations.
