C’est le succès.

Parfois, ce n’est pas l’échec qui nous réveille.
C’est le succès.

Le moment où tout est “réussi”…
et où, à l’intérieur, quelque chose murmure :

Pour qui? Pourquoi?

Dans ce nouvel épisode de Pulsion d’éveil, Jean-Marie et moi recevons Rémi Tremblay pour une conversation qui touche à cet endroit précis : le basculement intérieur qui arrive quand on ne peut plus continuer à vivre en mode survie — même si tout semble fonctionner.

Devenir numéro un… et se heurter au vide

Très jeune, Rémi prend la tête d’une grande organisation. Ambition assumée : devenir numéro un en dix ans.

Ils y arrivent.

Et pourtant, au moment où la victoire devrait être célébrée, quelque chose s’effondre.
Une question simple et vertigineuse surgit :

« Oui, on est devenu numéro un… mais pour qui? Pourquoi? »

Il voit le prix payé : la pression, les compromis, l’absence à la maison. Et surtout, il rencontre le vide derrière la performance.

Le succès, quand il est porté par la peur de ne pas ...

Some conversations don’t just live in the mind.
They land in the body.
They move something quietly, without asking permission.

Some conversations don’t inform us.
They work on us.

This week on the Embodied podcast, I had the deep honour of sitting down with Sheila Winter Wallace, a woman whose life has been devoted to one essential question: How do we remember who we truly are—through the body?

Sheila has been walking this path for decades. As a Master WEL-Systems® Educator, CODE Model Coach™, and BodySpirit Integration specialist, her work is rooted not in fixing, but in listening. Not in overriding the body, but in respecting its innate intelligence.

The body is not something to fix.
It is something to listen to.

In this conversation, she shares pieces of her life story with honesty and humility—growing up believing she was “slow,” carrying self-doubt and shame in her nervous system, navigating illness, and slowly, patiently, finding her way home to herself.

What struck me ...

Some conversations feel like nourishment.

In this episode of Embodied, I’m joined by my friend Julie Daniluk—Holistic Nutritionist, bestselling author, and someone who has helped tens of thousands of people shift their relationship with inflammation, sugar, and the nervous system… with both science and compassion.

This season is devoted to trust—trust in ourselves, in life, in the body, in the timing of our becoming. And what I loved about this conversation is how practical and human it is. We talk about the exact moments where trust gets difficult: the moment before a binge, the moment before blame, the moment before you reach for anything that promises relief.

And then we explore what it looks like to widen that moment—so choice can return.

New Embodied Podcast Episode with Naomi Irons

What does it really mean to trust life—especially when life brings us to our knees? What does trust feel like in the body, not as a concept or spiritual idea, but as a living force shaped by love, loss, and profound vulnerability?

In this episode of the Embodied podcast, I sit down with my dear friend and spiritual teacher Naomi Irons for one of the most powerful conversations we’ve ever shared. Our topic is trust—trust as a path, a portal, and a spiritual awakening.

This conversation is for anyone navigating a life transition, facing uncertainty, healing from fear, or longing to reconnect with their soul’s deeper wisdom.

Trust at the Threshold: When Life Asks Everything of You

Naomi opens up about the moment her life changed forever: her son’s sudden illness, an unexpected MRI, and the heartbreaking discovery of a large brain tumor. What followed was a profound initiation into trust—not the trust we talk about, but the trust we beco...

There comes a moment—quiet but unmistakable—when something ancient inside you begins to wake up. It can be a shiver in the spine, a sudden warmth in the chest, a knowing you can’t explain. This is the essence of Lemurian Huna: not learning something new, but remembering something impossibly old.

Your lineage is longer than your lifetime.
Longer than your ancestry.
Longer than humanity.

It is a light lineage, stretching from your body in this moment, through the stories and wounds of your ancestors, back into Lemurian memory, further still into the stars that first shaped your soul, and finally into the primordial void—the silent, infinite womb from which all creation emerged.

Lemurian Huna teaches that this lineage lives in you.
In your breath.
In your bones.
In the subtle field around your body.
In the parts of you that have never forgotten where you come from.

We begin with the body because the body is the first doorway. It holds the truth long before the mind can name it. When the bod...

Some people arrive and your nervous system exhales. That’s how it felt the first day I met Dr. Ellen Vora—psychiatrist, acupuncturist, yoga teacher, and author of The Anatomy of Anxiety. Her presence is grounded, medicinal, and deeply embodied. In our latest Embodied episode, we explored how anxiety is less a problem to “fix” in the mind and more a whole-body message asking to be felt, honored, and translated.

Medicine that starts in the body

Ellen’s work gently challenges the old story that anxiety and depression live only “from the neck up.” She invites us to see anxiety as the body’s stress response—often modifiable—rather than a fixed destiny. Sleep deprivation, blood sugar crashes, inflammation, hormone shifts, gut imbalance, alcohol, and even mouth-breathing can create what she calls false anxiety: avoidable suffering rooted in physiology. Sometimes a small, compassionate intervention (yes, even a spoonful of almond butter before the commute) steadies the system enough to chang...

Tu sais ce moment où quelque chose te tire vers l’intérieur, où ton cœur t’envoie un petit signal que tu ne peux pas ignorer ? C’est ça, la pulsion d’éveil. Dans notre tout nouveau balado, Pulsion d’éveil, Jean‑Marie et moi explorons comment accueillir ta vulnérabilité pour découvrir ton essence et répondre à l’appel de ton âme. Et dans cet épisode, on reçoit Sophie Grégoire, qui nous ouvre son cœur et sa sagesse.

Sophie nous rappelle quelque chose d’essentiel : notre corps sait. Il nous envoie des signaux de fatigue, de stress, de palpitations, parce qu’il a essayé toutes les stratégies de survie — fuir, combattre, plaire aux autres… Et parfois, il dit simplement : “ça suffit, je n’en peux plus.” Écouter ton corps, c’est déjà un pas vers toi-même, vers ce que tu es vraiment.

Elle nous parle aussi d’un point fascinant : beaucoup de nos réponses émotionnelles, notre sensibilité à la détresse, ne sont pas seulement génétiques. Elles se transmettent, se vivent dès la vie intra-utérine, ...

I am on a constant path of growth. I’ve known this about myself since I was a teenager: if I stay stagnant, if I accept the status quo for too long, I begin to feel restless. Anxiety rises, unhappiness sets in, and I sense I’m not living into my potential.

I write my books and teach my courses always from the edge of my own evolution—at the threshold where the “more” of who I am is waiting to emerge. I follow the breadcrumbs life places before me, like an artist, as intuition leads me deeper.

I live this way for myself first, because it is the only way I know that feels real. It makes me feel alive, it allows me to touch life deeply, and it fills me with reward. This way of living brings me emotional freedom, fulfillment, and coherence of energy that keeps my body healthy and vibrant.

And then, I live this way for others. Out of service. Out of a natural desire to share what I’ve learned and what has transformed me.

Meeting Sophie: An unexpected connection

When I sat down with Sophie Grégoire Trudeau — author, activist, and former Canadian television host — for this episode of Embodied, I knew we were going to explore trust in a profound way.

What I didn’t expect was just how alive and tender the conversation would feel. I’ve never met Sophie before, but the conversation felt like meeting up with an old friend — it was fun, honest, and so, so rich. She has a natural way of deeply connecting and creating a sense of belonging in the present moment, both in the conversation and in her company.

Closer Together: A book of science and soul

We talked about her book, Closer Together: Knowing Ourselves, Loving Each Other. I read it in preparation for the interview, and I was blown away. It is one of those rare works that is both deeply personal and rooted in science. Sophie writes and speaks with a beautifu...

Last weekend, I returned to my hometown of Baie-Comeau, Quebec, for the first time in 31 years. We moved away when I was 10, and except for one brief visit at 16, I never went back.

My childhood there was a mix of wonder and shadow. I remembered the forest behind our house, magical and alive, where I felt connected to my soul. I also remembered places of pain, marked by trauma. Beyond those fragments, most of my memories were blurry.

I wasn’t sure the land of your birth really calls you home. I had never felt that pull—until now. Now that I long for roots, a place to anchor more deeply than ever before.

Crossing on the ferry from Matane, the salty wind on my face, I couldn’t look away as the shoreline came into view. My eyes didn’t recognize the landmarks, but my body did. Tears streamed down my face as my chest tightened with recognition. It felt like an ancient part of me was awakening.

That first night, we ate at the Manoir Hotel overlooking the wide Saint Lawrence. The horizon ...
