The Mindful Journey

Where Science Meets Soul: Healing Beyond Medicine with Dr. Patrick Tran

In this episode of The Mindful Journey, host Sana speaks with Dr. Patrick Tran, a double board-certified dermatologist and surgeon who found himself face-to-face with a truth science couldn’t solve—his toddler’s rare and aggressive cancer. What followed was not a rejection of medicine but a radical expansion of what healing could look like. Dr. Tran shares how a sacred plant medicine ceremony and Kundalini activation shifted his worldview forever. He now guides high achievers to reconnect with their life force—not to “optimize” but to feel. This conversation explores trauma, structured Kundalini work, the dangers of spiritual bypassing, and how surrender, not control, may be our most powerful medicine.
About the GuestDr. Patrick Tran is a physician, surgeon, and Kundalini energy facilitator. He blends the clinical precision of Western medicine with the embodied wisdom of energetic healing, helping high performers integrate trauma, awaken consciousness, and redefine healing beyond symptom relief.
Key Takeaways
Dr. Tran's spiritual journey began before his son’s cancer diagnosis but was deepened by it. The emotional devastation led him to seek grace beyond clinical knowledge.
A 2020 plant medicine ceremony shattered his rigid scientific worldview, initiating a Kundalini awakening and shifting how he defined healing.
Structured Kundalini is not about spectacle but inner purification, releasing stored trauma, and restoring energetic flow through the body.
He warns that even spiritual work can become ego-driven, especially for high achievers, and emphasizes that real growth lies in integration, not transcendence.
Dr. Tran responds to skeptics with grounded insight: even placebo is powerful. If belief can heal, then energy medicine deserves a place alongside clinical care.

The Sacred Reawakening of Midlife: Soulful Medicine, Intuition & Identity with Dr. Sue McCreadie

Midlife isn't a crisis—it's a calling. In this deep and soulful episode of The Mindful Journey, host Sana is joined by Dr. Sue McCreadie, MD—a physician, mom, and midlife transformation coach—to explore the emotional, physical, and spiritual layers of the “messy middle.” Together, they unpack what it really means to tune in when life is loud, how hormones and shifting identities impact women at midlife, and why soulful medicine—combining science, spirit, and story—is the key to healing and wholeness. Whether you're navigating burnout, perimenopause, or a quiet sense of “what now?” this episode offers powerful rituals, intuitive tools, and wisdom for reclaiming your energy, voice, and self.
About the Guest:Dr. Sue McCreadie is a board-certified MD, integrative paediatrician, midlife mentor, and founder of the Soulfull Medicine method. She guides women through transitions of burnout, hormonal changes, and spiritual awakening by blending medical expertise with intuitive wisdom. Her work centers around helping women rediscover joy, balance, and purpose in the second half of life.
Key Takeaways :
Midlife is not a decline—it’s a reawakening. Dr. Sue reframes midlife as a sacred threshold where your soul speaks louder, not quieter.
Slowing down is not failure—it’s survival. She shares how being forced to slow down led her to deeper self-awareness and ultimately, soulful medicine.
Women’s midlife experiences are physiologically and emotionally unique. From hormones to caregiving roles, she outlines how perimenopause and societal expectations add complexity.
Soulfull medicine combines intuition and logic. Through journaling, meditation, and even tarot, women can reconnect with their soul’s needs and direction.
Ask better questions, like “What would love do?” This simple yet transformative question helps reframe hard decisions through the lens of compassion and alignment.

Mastering Boundaries & Thought Hygiene: Practical Mental Wellness with Zoey Kyriacou

In this episode of The Mindful Journey, host Sana is joined by licensed therapist, coach, and single mom of three—Zoey Kyriacou. Together, they unpack the emotional weight of people-pleasing, the cultural conditioning that makes it hard to say no, and how positive thinking can easily turn into emotional bypassing if not rooted in awareness.
You’ll learn the real meaning of boundaries (spoiler: they’re not about others), how anxiety tricks your brain, and why reframing your thoughts is essential for mental clarity. Zoey shares accessible strategies for energy hygiene, managing emotional overwhelm, and using mindset as a grounding—not escaping—tool.
This episode is a call to pause, protect your peace, and lead with self-respect in both personal and professional spaces.
About the Guest:Zoey Kyriacou is the founder of Mastermind Counseling and Mastermind Coaching, a licensed therapist and coach who blends clinical insight with grounded wisdom. She specializes in helping high-functioning adults set boundaries, break anxiety loops, and build healthier internal narratives.
Key Takeaways:
Boundaries aren’t about controlling others—they are a mindset and behavioral shift you make for yourself.
Saying no doesn’t make you difficult; it makes you self-aware. “No” is a full sentence.
Women, especially, are conditioned to be agreeable. Undoing that starts with affirming: I am enough.
Thought hygiene is essential. Ask yourself: Are my thoughts based on facts? Are they helping me feel better? Are they aligned with my goals?
Don’t emotionally bypass. Feel your emotions, recognize them, but don’t make life decisions from that reactive state.
Anxiety exaggerates threat and downplays your ability to cope—challenge it.
Simple energy resets: short walks, breathwork, and conscious movement help interrupt negative cycles and re-anchor you.
In workspaces, you can be kind and assertive. Use language that’s both respectful and firm to uphold your boundaries.

Prepared, Not Panicked: Mindful Disaster Planning with Jennifer Heller
