In this powerful episode of Healing Horizons, host Sana is joined by Yvonne Lee-Hawkins—a former corporate high-achiever turned holistic wellness guide. After navigating two intense burnouts that affected her mentally, physically, and emotionally, Yvonne chose a new path: one rooted in pranic healing, energy work, and soulful self-restoration. Together, they dive deep into the signs of real burnout (beyond just being tired), how to embrace healing without guilt, and why energy work deserves a place in modern self-care. If you're caught in hustle mode, this conversation is your invitation to pause, reconnect, and begin again—with clarity and compassion.
About the Guest:Yvonne Lee-Hawkins is a holistic wellness coach, pranic healer, and speaker helping high-achievers and burnt-out professionals realign their lives. With a background in biology and leadership, she bridges science and soul to offer grounded yet transformative practices for restoring energy, clarity, and joy. Today, she empowers others to prioritize their well-being without sacrificing ambition.
Key Takeaways:
Burnout is not just physical fatigue—it’s an energetic and emotional imbalance that calls for change.
Pranic healing taps into the body’s own wisdom to restore balance across mental, emotional, and spiritual layers.
True thriving means balancing what drains you with what fills you—intentionally.
You are the axe—if you don’t pause to sharpen it, your impact dulls.
Healing is not a luxury; it’s essential in a high-performance, hustle-driven world.

In this deeply moving episode of Healing Horizons, we welcome Sheila K. Collins—grief advocate, author of The Art of Grieving, and former professional dancer. Sheila shares her powerful journey of loss, from losing her son to AIDS and her daughter to breast cancer, and how creativity became her lifeline. Through dance, poetry, and storytelling, she found a way to alchemize sorrow into sacred expression. This episode explores how art changes our brain, opens our hearts, and helps us remain connected to those we've lost—transforming grief into a lifelong, soulful companion rather than a chapter we try to close.

In this soulful episode of Healing Horizons, host Saima is joined by Michael Tierno, psychological guide and co-founder of Men of Integrity and Heart Sanctuary Peru. Together, they explore the transformative realms of sacred masculinity, plant medicine, and emotional healing. Michael recounts how his first Ayahuasca journey in Peru rewired his belief system and opened his heart to ancient wisdom and integrated living. This episode dives deep into the importance of guided psychedelic experiences, the archetypes of divine masculine and feminine, and why vulnerability is a strength on the path to conscious leadership.
About the Guest:Michael Tierno is a sacred masculinity mentor, men’s work leader, and co-founder of Men of Integrity and Heart Sanctuary in Peru. Once rooted in a rational-materialist mindset, a life-altering journey with Ayahuasca redefined his perception of self and reality.

Psychedelics like Ayahuasca can dissolve ego and unlock intuitive wisdom.
Sacred settings and experienced guides are essential for safe and profound healing journeys.
Masculine and feminine archetypes, when embraced, lead to wholeness and authentic leadership.
