In this episode we are talking with Raphael McMaster about why it’s so important to be proactive about our children’s mental health—and how this early support helps them grow into caring, connected individuals.
Instead of waiting for problems to escalate, we can build habits and environments that strengthen emotional well-being from a young age. At the same time, we can help children develop a collective consciousness


Rafael McMaster is a creative director, artist, and youth mental health advocate who has dedicated his life to uplifting youth through a fresh approach to mindfulness and creativity. As the founder of Indivisible Arts, Rafael leads a transformative youth development nonprofit that equips young people with practical tools for emotional resilience and self-control. His unique blend of mindfulness, mentorship, and creativity has made a profound impact on youth across Los Angeles, particularly those facing adversity.
After a successful creative agency career (including 5 years as a Creative Executive at Creative Artists Agency), Rafael shifted his focus from the creative industry to community impact. What began as a volunteer effort at his daughter’s school evolved into a thriving nonprofit, a public gallery space, and an after-school program grounded in tools-based mental wellness and creative freedom. Alongside learning tools for mindfulness, youth get to explore a wide range of creative media, including everything from portraiture and sculpting to music production and 3-D design. McMaster's newest endeavour, the forthcoming book FundaMentalLife Tools (2025), offers a hands-on toolkit for emotional well-being rooted in the same practices that have empowered youth through Indivisible Arts' flagship curriculum, Creative Wisdom Tools. Whether he's coaching individuals to turn pain into power or guiding teens through transformative creative practices, Rafael brings depth, heart, and visionary thinking to conversations about healing, growth, and the future of mental health.

Youth Development and Leadership With Rafael McMaster

In this episode we are diving into the surprisingly fascinating world of cerumen, the scientific name for earwax. We'll explore its protective role, why some people produce more than others, and what happens when it builds up too much. Plus, we’ll introduce you to a safe, innovative technique that’s changing the way we manage earwax buildup—no risky poking required.
 
Sahil Diwan is the Co-Founder and CEO of SafKan Health, the company behind OtoSet® — the world’s first automated ear-cleaning headphones that can clean earwax buildup in 30 seconds.
 
He’s on a mission to solve one of the most overlooked yet widespread health issues: earwax buildup, which affects 35M+ Americans and can lead to conductive hearing loss, tinnitus, and chronic discomfort — among other issues.
 
A first-generation immigrant from India, Sahil’s journey began with a deeply personal problem — his brother Aadil's lifelong struggle with earwax buildup. What started as a college dorm experiment with 3D-printed prototypes is today an FDA-cleared medical device used by clinics nationwide — making ear care more accessible and consumer-friendly than ever before.
 
The company’s flagship OtoSet was named among the Best Health Designs of 2023 by Fast Company, while videos of the device in action have racked up over 250M views online, proving just how urgent and universal this problem is. Tens of thousands of Americans have reported finding relief with OtoSet: hearing clearer, feeling cleaner, and reconnecting with the sounds they’ve been missing.
 
Sahil is one of the youngest people ever to receive FDA 510(k) clearance for a medical device and has raised $13M in venture funding on his journey to reshape the future of ear care.

Learning Points:
•	What exactly is earwax, and what is its purpose in the body?
•	When should someone see a doctor or specialist about their earwax?
•	How is OtoSet, the world’s first automated ear-cleaning headphones, revolutionizing how to clean earwax buildup?

Understanding EMFs: Risks, Research, and Practical Protection With Arthur Menard


In this episode we speak with Kristin Grayce McGary (LAc., MAc., CFMP®, CST-T, CLP) and explore functional blood work—a deeper, more holistic way of interpreting lab results. Instead of just looking for illness, functional testing helps us understand where the body may be out of balance, often long before symptoms become serious. From nutrient deficiencies and hormone imbalances to hidden inflammation and stress markers, functional blood work can be a powerful tool for creating truly personalized health plans.

Kristen Grayce is an internationally recognized health and lifestyle alchemist, author, and speaker. She weaves together 28 years of experience, education, wisdom, and compassion to empower you to reconnect, reawaken, and rejuvenate on all levels
She is an authority on autoimmunity, functional blood chemistry analysis, thyroid and gut health, family healthcare, food as medicine, integrating mind/body/spirit in health & soulcare, and is initiated into several lineages of shamanic practices.
 
In her alchemical practice of individualized health & soulcare, she has mastered dozens of modalities including acupuncture and Asian medicine, advanced craniosacral and somatoemotional release, neural and perineural therapy, homeopathy, functional healthcare, family constellation, medical Qi Gong, Psychosomatics, meditation, shamanic ceremony, and more.
She is the author of Holistic Keto for Gut Health: A Program for Resetting your Metabolism and Know Your Blood, Know Your Health; Prevent Disease and Enjoy Vibrant Health Through Functional Blood Chemistry Analysis. Her upcoming book is on Blocks to Healing and how to resolve them quickly.

Learning Points:
What is functional bloodwork?
How does functional bloodwork go beyond conventional testing?
Why do ‘optimal' ranges matter more than 'normal' ones?
