Yesterday at 11:00 AM

Can our thoughts actually help heal our bodies? 

After surviving childhood trauma, abusive relationships, a few near-death experiences and years of chronic pain, energy worker and hypnotherapist Sunshine Okubo says she healed herself by turning inward—and now helps others do the same. Laura and Sunshine explore the mind-body connection, shadow work, stored emotions, our innate ability to heal and what can happen when we finally start listening to our souls.

58. Signs: How to Know When the Universe Is Talking to You
#58
06/24/2026

What if nothing is a coincidence?

After my near-death experience, I stopped believing life is random. I began to notice the nudges....the people, patterns, timing, and "pings" that seemed to be guiding me all along.

Intuitive coach and spiritual medium Jessica Rachel joins me to explore how the universe communicates with us through signs, synchronicities, intuition, and even our own bodies. We unpack what a sign feels like, how it's so easy to miss them, and how learning to trust those the pings can lead to a more peaceful, aligned life.

#54
04/24/2026

The Buffalo Sabres, the Buffalo Bills, and one very loud case for destiny. In this bonus episode, Laura Scarpati and Matt Dorsey break down the viral 2018 tweet in which a psychic predicted back-to-back championships for Buffalo sports.

53. Sacred Tobacco with Jason Grechanik
#53
04/22/2026

Cigarettes have been all over my algorithm lately…gasp…are they back? Western culture views cigs as a guilty habit, a vice, something a little dirty and a little addictive.  But when sourced properly and without all the added chemicals and preserves,  tobacco is a powerful plant teacher that can support physical, spiritual, and emotional healing. 

Jason Grechanik, who spent a decade in the Peruvian Amazon working with plant medicines including tobacco, explains why we may be taking a second look at cigs right now.  He breaks down what sacred tobacco is, how we can diet to connect...

47. Sobriety, Surrender & the Power of Now with Adam Dowling
#47
02/04/2026

After meeting during an ayahuasca ceremony, I sat down with Adam Dowling, a firefighter who shares how his move into sobriety opened the door to an expansive dive into spirituality.   

Adam shares how decades of substance use came to an abrupt end in 2020, and how sobriety became the doorway to something much bigger: surrender, presence, and a profound spiritual awakening. Through recovery, unexpected moments of stillness (including working the beverage aisle at Target), and teachings from Eckhart Tolle and Michael Singer, Adam discovered a truth that changed everything:

You are not your th...


46. When The Universe Sends Receipts with Psychic Medium Linda Spellman
#46
01/28/2026

How validating is it, when you either go to medium or hear about how a medium pulled through those details she could never possibly know?!  The receipts you never expected.  Messages from places beyond the 3D. 

Linda Spellman is a psychic medium. She accesses energy beyond the veil and delivers messages to clients around the world, helping them find connection and peace. 

I believe at it’s core, Linda's work is offered to remind us:  We are not alone.

44. The Power of Somatic Movement with Dance Alive Coach Tierra Karou
#44
12/10/2025

Often spirituality pulls us up and out.  We often wanna connect into the crown chakra, the ether, the beyond. But somatic work, the practice of tuning into the body’s sensations, brings us right back in.  Back into this miracle suit we live in, this body that carries us through our entire human experience.

Tierra Karoua, is an embodied movement guide helping people reconnect somatically to their inner power, to the truth that lives in the tissues, in the breath, in the subtle shifts of energy we often ignore.

In this ep we get...


43. Inside My Ayahuasca Experience with Matt Dorsey
12/03/2025

Ayahuasca - an ancient Amazonian plant medicine. A brew made from two plants that somehow unlocks a portal to your inner world. 

People drink ayahuasca for many reasons - to heal trauma, to understand their purpose, to peel back layers that life has piled on. 

It is not a casual trip. It’s not cute. It’s profound, humbling, and, yes, it can get messy, maybe you've heard about the purge...and we get into that more in this episode...but Ayahuasca is also one of the most powerful invitations to transformation we have on this p...


42. Down The Woo-Woo Rabbit Hole with Hypnotherapist and Intuitive Guide Lynnsey Robinson
#42
11/26/2025

Once you start really digging into unseen energies...it’s a slippery slope. In the world of woo-woo, there is a lot out there.  Past lives/ numerology / astrology / human designs / dreams / hypnotherapy / understanding chakras / and a million more modalities or systems or symbols, or charts all offering us something. A peak into the metaphysical, into what makes us tick, into the energies behind what we can and cannot see, helping us discover more about why we’re here, what’s our purpose, how can we heal, and so I totally get when one thing leads to another - and you sta...


41. Communicating with Animals & Equine Therapy with Kate Neligan
#41
11/19/2025

Kate Neligan is an animal communicator and healer who specializes in equine-partnered spiritual growth. Meaning: she works with her horses to help people heal, offering greater clarity, focus, empowerment, improved communication, deeper self-awareness, more love, courage, confidence, reduced stress… truly the whole spectrum. Sometimes this looks like sitting quietly in a chair near a horse, closing your eyes, taking a deep breath, and allowing the horse to come to you and do its energy work. Maybe you’ve seen those viral clips of people on massage tables in a horse pen receiving this kind of healing — and yes, people feel r...


40. MDMA Therapy with Serena Turner
11/12/2025

Content Warning: This episode contains a conversation about an act of childhood sexual assault.

MDMA — also known as the pure form of Ecstasy or Molly — is a psychoactive substance that increases serotonin, dopamine, and oxytocin in the brain. It’s illegal, mainly because the U.S. government classified it in the ’80s as a Schedule I drug. But like many political decisions made 30+ years ago, it’s definitely worth another look.

These days, most people know MDMA from the party scene... raves, festivals...where it’s known to make people feed really good - it also heighte...


39. Clean Living with Holistic Health Expert Alexandra Brook-Clark from ARMUR Health
#39
11/05/2025

Our homes should feel like sanctuaries, places that nourish and restore us. But so often, everyday things we use, from our beauty products to our cleaning supplies, are not nourishing at all.  They could be draining our energy or even making us sick.

35. Burning Man & Plant Medicine with Selema Masekela
#35
10/08/2025

Burning man is an annual weeklong gathering in Nevada’s Black Rock Desert where 70,000 people create a temporary city dedicated to art, community, and radical self-reliance - it culminates with the burning of a large wooden effigy called the Man.  

Historically I have rolled my eyes at this event.   It seems a bit dusty and like a lot of effort to get to the middle of nowhere, bring in all your own drinking water, and food, camp in the heat, and dust storms and then leave no trace.  So when I saw my old friend and former E!/Da...


Ep 34: Breathwork, Nourishment & Daily Practices to Drop In, Detox & Restore with Shanna Fiorucci
#34
10/01/2025

We are back at it.  Into the school year.  Moving into fall. This is the time of year for me when I fall into my masculine/work horse mode.  Maybe many of us do?  There’s so much I wanna get done in a day and yet I have to remind myself to eat, to breathe, to check in and really allow space to empty out, to detox, to restore. 

Shanna Fiorucci says it best in this episode she talks about how our daily choices are our biggest power moves. 

Shanna reads energy, tarot cards, teaches...


33. Letting Go with Hospice Nurse Kristin Kildea
#33
09/24/2025

We had to put our dog down last week and it gutted us.  In my grief I came back to this podcast.  Living in the edit of this conversation was such a gift, because while it's expansive, at its core, it's about letting go.  

Most people don’t want to talk about death and dying.  I get it!  Even though we can honor grief as another form of love … Who wants to think about something that includes all of those messy emotions.   Another truth though - is that one day.  Death will find us.  It’s ok if you don’t w...


32. Your Purpose and How to Find It with Career Coach Alana Cummings
09/17/2025

When we pause, look inward, or intentionally take stock of our lives, a question almost always rises to the surface: What is my purpose? Why am I here? What am I meant to do?

In a capitalist society, we’re taught to believe our career equals our purpose, or that our worth is measured by our paycheck. But when you really check in with yourself, is that true? Is your self-worth only tied to your 9–5? Maybe it is! But maybe there’s more.

The woo offers plenty of ways to explore your purpose: meditation, Human Design...


31. My Near-Death Experience Explained with my husband Matt Dorsey
#31
09/10/2025

It's the 5 year anniversary of my near-death experience. When I got run over by a car while 18 weeks pregnant. The moment that cracked me open, transformed my life and affected those closest to me.  

I. Am. So. Grateful. To. Be. Alive.

In that moment I surrendered it all and accepted that this was the end. Turns out…it wasn’t. I was meant to bring Wes into the world a few months later. I was meant to watch him and Will grow to be 4 and 7. I was meant to forge new fierce friendships in a town...

28. How Woo Are You? with Caitlin Wilder
#28
08/06/2025

The best woo-woo stories are the ones that make you gasp. The kind that make you giggle with delight because the synchronicity, the message, the sign is so spot-on, you just know there’s something else at play.

Get ready to gasp, giggle, and pick your jaw up off the floor, because Caitlin Wilder of WILDERBEGINNINGS and I are trading some incredible stories about connecting with things not of this realm.

If you're not following Karin Hadadan / ICIETNU on instagram stop what you're doing and go follow!  She is an EXHALE amidst your chaotic scroll.

Karin opens up about her battle with endometriosis and chronic illness, and how those painful initiations cracked open multiple spiritual awakenings that deepened her connection to both God and the...


26. Alignment, Astrology and Star Twins with Author Jessie Rosen
#26
07/23/2025

How aligned are we, really, to our astrology charts?  

When you read your horoscope, does it feel spot‑on? Or feel like it’s written for someone else?

Author Jessie Rosen takes us right into that tension in her new novel "All The Signs" exploring astrological alignment and a concept I had never heard of before: star twins. A star twin is someone born within a two‑hour window of you, same date, same year. While Jessie’s book is fiction, her research was very real. She went looking for her own star twins and, through t...


25. 5 Lessons From the First 25 Episodes of The Woo Report
#25
07/16/2025

Exploring the unseen is a way to come back to ourselves.  Getting curious about how we're showing up in the world and the modalities, mindset and magic that helps us get there.  It doesn't have to be serious!  It's fun!  It's power!  

And so for Episode 25, and my first solo ep, I am reflecting on what I've learned.  From crack open moments to quantum physics, sound healing, energetics, intuitives and beyond - the energy of The Woo Report has, for me, been expansive.  This short episode digs into 5 Lessons I've learned in the process.  I hope they support...

#24
07/09/2025

Intuitive Christin Bridge is a pioneer in the unplugged space. She lives radically unplugged - no news, no social media, no TV, no movies, and limits how she's checks and engages in emails/texts - all which she explains the details of in this episode... but the results? Space. Clarity. Way less noise.

Yes, the irony is not lost on me that we’re talking about this on a podcast — a podcast I’ll also post about on Instagram. 

But the conversation itself is a kind of invitation.  A reminder that we get to choose what we...

So how do we accomplish longevity?  How do we age well.  How do we evolve optimally? I want all the secrets.

22. Sacred Smut ~ Why Romantasy Novels Resonate with Anna Ruckert
#22
06/25/2025

Have you gotten into the spicy fantasy novels yet?  The Romantasy genre is a full-blown phenomenon.  

Do these books have sex in them?  Yes. Yes they do.  A lot of it.  Are they so fun to read? Yes. Yes they are. The stakes are high, the sex is good, and our heroins are becoming.  They are rising. They are remembering the power within themselves. They are reclaiming their pleasure.  This is a sacred feminine awakening baby!  And the spiritual themes do not stop there.  

These book are rampant both in the sheets and in the woo.  The...


21. Self-Love with Breezy Sloth
#21
06/18/2025

Often we’re told that self-love means spa days and botox.  But true self-love is much deeper than that. It’s honoring your actual needs. YOUR actual needs. Not your kids, not your friends not your partners.  Yours.  

Self-love is saying no without guilt. It's setting boundaries that can make some people uncomfortable.  It’s nourishing your body, resting without proving you deserve it. It’s a daily practice.  And most days, it’s quiet. Not glamorous. Not Instagrammable.

But sometimes? You meet someone whose Instagram does emote self-love—not in a curated, picture-perfect way, but in a way that...
