Have you ever walked into a room one way and walked out feeling completely different? Or carried a heaviness for years without realizing it might not even be yours?

In this episode, I sit down with medical intuitive, energy healer, and bestselling author Dave Markowitz to talk about his newest book, Refuge for the Weary Empath. 

Dave shares the night he failed a sobriety test without drinking a drop, and how it revealed just how much we absorb from the people around us.

We explore why shielding and constant boundary-holding can leave us drained, and what it looks like to let energy flow through instead. Dave introduces the four original wounds that shape how we see the world, and we talk about acceptance that opens a door instead of closing one. He shares the powerful moment he gave his mother back her sadness, and what Spirit told him when his anger work wasn't working: "Because you didn't love it."

This conversation is an invitation to stop fighting what you feel, understand what's really yours, and move from balance into full-spectrum wholeness. 🤍
