  • How Trauma Lives in the Body and Shapes Physical Healing with Avonley Lightstone
    Feb 3 2026

    What if the pain you survived never fully left—but settled quietly into your body? This episode explores the often-overlooked connection between trauma, the nervous system, and physical illness.

    On I Awaken, host Archita sits with author Avonley Lightstone to unpack how unprocessed trauma can manifest as chronic pain, numbness, and long-term health challenges. This conversation is for anyone sensing that their body is holding stories their mind learned to silence—and who is ready to listen with compassion and courage.

    About the Guest: Avonley Lightstone is the author of Strength of Scars. A trauma survivor, she shares her lived experience of loss, abuse, faith, and physical healing through emotional awareness and self-compassion.

    Key Takeaways:

    • Trauma can store itself in the body when emotions are suppressed

    • Numbness and chronic pain may signal unprocessed experiences

    • Healing begins when the body feels safe to feel again

    • Forgiveness alone doesn’t complete healing—self-compassion does

    • Awareness and boundaries are essential to breaking trauma patterns

  • What Enlightenment Really Means in Everyday Human Life with Dean Graves
    Jan 31 2026

    What if enlightenment is not something you achieve, but something you remember? In this episode of I Awaken, host Archita sits down with spiritual teacher, author, and podcaster Dean Graves to explore awakening as a lived, human experience rather than a distant spiritual goal.

    This conversation is for anyone who feels successful on the outside but quietly unfulfilled inside. Dean breaks down how awareness, surrender, and responsibility shape the enlightenment process, and how real awakening shows up in daily life through relationships, work, stress, and emotional responses.

    About the Guest:Dean Graves is a spiritual teacher, author, and podcaster with over 25 years of experience in meditation and mindfulness. His work focuses on self-healing, awareness, and conscious participation in life.

    Key Takeaways:

    • Enlightenment is measured by happiness, not external success

    • Stress reveals where false self-identities are still operating

    • Awakening begins when awareness turns inward

    • Meditation trains awareness to move from inner stillness into daily life

    • Problems become teachers when seen through conscious awareness

  • Reclaiming Inner Authority and Breaking Invisible Vows with Toni LaMotta
    Jan 27 2026

    At some point, many of us give away our power quietly through silence, compliance, and inherited expectations. In this episode of I Awaken, host Yusuf is joined by spiritual coach and master teacher Toni LaMotta to explore how unconscious vows shape our lives.

    Drawing from her 16 years living under a vow of obedience in a convent, Dr. Toni explains how inner authority gets muted and how listeners can begin listening to their own body, intuition, and inner compass. This conversation is for anyone feeling stuck, anxious, or disconnected from their own voice and ready to reclaim self trust.

    About the Guest:Toni LaMotta is a spiritual coach, master teacher, and internationally recognized speaker. She spent 16 years in a convent and now teaches practical methods for awakening inner authority and self trust.

    Key Takeaways:

    • Unconscious vows often form in childhood, not just religion

    • Anxiety and indecision signal a disconnected inner compass

    • The body offers clear guidance before the mind does

    • Fear does not disappear, but discernment grows

    • Reclaiming inner authority is a gradual, playful process
