Stay Grounded with Raj Jana

Every other week I share one of the more powerful segments from a recent episode. Usually the part that carried a lesson I needed reminding of. This is that part. Garrain Asé was four months into a separation from his wife. Two homes. Kids going back and forth. He was out, and he wasn't coming back. Then his son's birthday arrived, and Garrain heard something that changed the direction of...

If your relationship is breaking right now and you don't know how to move through it, this one is for you. Garrain Asé came on the show two days after the most significant thing that has happened to him in years. A four-month separation. Income cut in half. Businesses going down. A name he changed because it belonged to a slave owner. And underneath all of it, seven years of small lies he told...

If you've ever caught yourself thinking if they'd just do it this way, their life would be easier — this one is for you. Dr. Steven Young traces that impulse all the way down. Past the discernment, past the ego wanting to be better, to a boy who watched his parents try to kill each other and lost all sense of safety. The judgment was never about other people. Then he gets to the part almost nobody...

Dr. Steven Young has been one of the most precious humans in my life. He arrives right on time, in the exact moment I need it, with a message of love that changes something. This episode is a conversation with a man who has spent thirty-seven years in devotion to gnosis, knowing thyself, and who found out last year that he still had a story running underneath everything. It starts with a card game...

This is a very special episode. Natalie sat down with her identical twin sister, Holly Wheeler, and guided her through a live Love Mapping. Two people who shared a womb, who lived the same childhood in the same house at the same time, one of them now witnessing the other go back through it. We built Liberate. Love partly for this. So much of what we carry was formed inside a family system, and so...

Most of us can name the pattern. The same dynamic with different partners. The same feeling with a mother, a boss, a spouse. What we can't see is why it keeps happening. In front of 110 participants in Costa Rica, Dr. Zach Bush sat down with Raj for a live Love Retrieval. Underneath four decades of stories was a single architecture. The moment he could see it, it dissolved. The body knew first Bef...

This past April at Blue Spirit Retreat Center in Nosara Costa Rica, I guided Dr. Zach Bush through a Love Retrieval in front of 110 people who were told to close their eyes and feel with Zach as he touched some of the deepest parts of his soul. It was one of the most raw, real, intimate group experiences I have ever been part of. You won't see that session on this episode. What you'll hear is Zach...

The video features a Love Retrieval where the Raj, revisits a difficult childhood memory to gain healing and insight. The session progresses through the following stages: Recalling the Memory: Raj describes moving to Southeast Texas shortly after 9/11. As a brown-skinned teenager, he faced intense bullying and racism. He recounts a specific, humiliating incident in a seventh-grade gym locker room...

After sharing my live Love Retrieval in Episode One, I wanted to come back and talk about what actually happened in that experience and, more importantly, what has changed since. I recorded the original session in May. It’s now August, and the emotional charge and pattern we uncovered that day no longer lives in my body in the same way. That’s why I recorded this integration episode: to help you u...

In this episode, I'm the one in the chair, and Natalie, my fiancée, is mapping my own patterns live on camera. What starts as a story about money doesn't stay there. Underneath the spiral of there isn't enough time, there isn't enough money is an older pattern: the reflex of disconnecting from my own heart the moment I feel unsafe. Natalie follows the thread back through my thirties, my twenties,...

Welcome to Liberate. Love, a new kind of media platform where we help you harmonize the most important relationships you'll ever have: with yourself, your partner, your children, and the people who raised you. Every week, real people come on and unpack the hidden stories quietly running their experience of connection and love. We don't tell you what to do here. We model vulnerability, and help you...

After 420+ episodes, conversations with some of the world’s brightest luminaries, hundreds of thousands of you reached worldwide, and 50+ deep, vulnerable reflections on my own journey and what I’ve learned along the way, this is my final episode of the Stay Grounded podcast. It’s the end of an era. The most profound dojo for me to develop the skill of asking questions, offering deep presence, and...

For years, I couldn't give myself permission to heal. My parents were good to me. They loved me. By every conventional measure, I had a good life — and that made it almost impossible to look at my own pain and call it what it was. Then I read Mark Wollyn's book and everything shifted. The pain you're carrying doesn't have to have started with you. Your parents went through things. Their parents we...

Nobody taught me how to be vulnerable. Not my parents. Not my teachers. Not the culture I grew up in — where masculinity and emotional openness didn't exactly go hand in hand. I spent years performing a version of myself that looked together, while underneath I was really afraid to be real. I wish someone had handed me a step-by-step guide. I wish someone had sat me down and said: here's why you'r...

What does healing actually look like? Not the concept of it. Not the retreat version of it. Not the highlight reel of someone on the other side of it. The real thing. In real time. On camera. That's what this episode is. Raj guides his dear friend Lindsay Hergott — a brilliant teacher, coach, and leader in her own right — through the Liberate Mapping Process live. No script. No rehearsal. No agend...

What if love wasn't the reward at the end of the journey? What if it was the fuel? Love is not something you fall into or a state you occasionally access on a good day. Love is a resource. Love is a technology. Love is the most advanced, most powerful, most renewable operating system available to every human being alive right now — more potent than ambition, more durable than discipline, more gene...

Nobody warns you about this part. The proposal happens. The ring goes on. Everyone celebrates. And then somewhere in the quiet — maybe that night, maybe a week later — something unexpected surfaces. A fear. A doubt. A version of yourself you thought you'd already healed. And you wonder if it means something is wrong. It doesn't. In this episode, Raj and @thenatalieadele get radically honest about...

What if every heartbreak, every failure, every person who showed up and walked away — was actually pointing you toward your purpose? Most of us move through life reacting to what happens — calling it bad luck, calling it unfair, calling it "just the way things are." But what if you zoomed out far enough to see the pattern? The same type of relationship that keeps showing up. The same wall you keep...

What if the moments you most want to escape are the exact moments that are rewiring you? Most of us were taught to fix, push through, or numb the hard stuff. When conflict hits a relationship, when a business deal falls apart, when fear grips your chest — we run. We reach for the phone, the distraction, the solution. But what if the single most transformative thing you could do in those moments is...

What if everything you've been told about fertility and age is wrong? Dr. Ann Shippy — Board-Certified Internal Medicine physician, functional medicine pioneer, former IBM engineer, and author of the new book The Preconception Revolution (foreword by Dr. Mark Hyman) — joins Raj to shatter the myths keeping couples stuck in fear and share what the science actually says about getting pregnant natura...

What if miracles aren't mystical, they're scientific? Dr. Larry Farwell is a Harvard-trained neuroscientist selected by TIME Magazine to the TIME 100 Top Innovators of the Century—"the Picassos or Einsteins of the 21st Century." The son of a Manhattan Project physicist, he has advised President George W. Bush on counter-terrorism, freed innocent people from prison using brain fingerprinting techno...

What if everything you've been told about disease is wrong? What if your chronic symptoms aren't caused by bad genes, toxins, or bad luck—but by unresolved conflict in your relationships? In this paradigm-shifting episode, Raj sits down with Brandon Bozarth, a practitioner of German New Medicine and biological relating, to explore the revolutionary discovery that ALL disease begins with a "conflic...

What if the reason you feel so exhausted, so unseen, so disconnected from your own life is because you've been abandoning yourself to make everyone else comfortable? In a world that celebrates self-sacrifice and rewards people-pleasing, choosing yourself is a radical act of revolution. In this intimate conversation, Natalie Adele and I break down what it actually means to choose yourself—not as a...

What if your hardest moments this year were never obstacles — but invitations? For five years running, Raj has shared his annual reflection process with thousands of listeners. This year's reflection is different. After navigating a heart-wrenching chapter of pain with his partner Natalie in the first quarter of 2025, dissolving business partnerships, and shedding identities he'd held for years, R...

What if life is a game—and you've been playing it without knowing the cheat codes? Steve Young has spent 37 years studying the Hermetic Principles—ancient universal laws that govern how reality actually works. He's the creator of the Ammortal chamber, a transformational technology that has helped people reverse genetic disorders and experience direct connection with the divine. In this episode, St...
