Tracy Alexander is an Alignment and Meditation coach.
Home of Sapiens is a place where we learn how to navigate this wild experience of being human.
It's a place where we talk about real life in a way that gives us hope that we can move in the right direction.
It’s a place we come to heal, to grow, to connect, to learn, to break down barriers, to be vulnerable, to strengthen and to soften.
How can we feel peaceful, joyful and THRIVE no matter what chaos and terror we face or see around us?
This is a podcast about life... and the conflicts we live through and the determination to continue.
Conscious creation when your world is torn apart by terror. Everyday hero: Idit Ohel
What happens when the unthinkable becomes your reality?
On October 7, 2023, Idit Ohel's 22-year-old son, Alon Ohel, was taken hostage by Hamas from the Nova Music Festival and held underground in Gaza for 738 days.
Most of us imagine that in the face of such unimaginable suffering, our only options would be fear, anger, hatred or despair.
Idit chose a different path.
In this conversation, we explore the extraordinary mindset that carried her through nearly two years of uncertainty—not by denying the pain, but by refusing to become defined by it.
We talk about:
Why she chose to meet hatred with unconditional love.
How she held space for her son spiritually while being unable to help him physically.
The difference between pain, trauma and what she calls "positive post-trauma."
Why she believes we always have a choice in who we become, regardless of what life asks of us.
Her understanding of force, justice, forgiveness and personal responsibility.
The role of meditation, consciousness and inner alignment during times of profound crisis.
Why she believes both she and Alon's souls chose this journey - and how that belief transformed the way she walked through it.
This is not a conversation about politics.
It is a conversation about what it means to remain deeply human when the world gives you every reason not to.
About whether love can exist alongside unimaginable pain.
About how we move forward when life no longer resembles the future we imagined.
And ultimately...
about the extraordinary freedom that comes from choosing the quality of consciousness we bring to our circumstances.

Production note: You may notice a change in audio quality during parts of this episode. Some of the most profound insights came from a pre-interview conversation with Idit before we formally recorded the podcast. They were simply too meaningful to leave on the cutting room floor, so we've woven them into this conversation.

How do we have the ability to truly access that subtle pull of intuition?
It requires us to clear away the static of stress that is causing overthinking in the mind.

The fight for inner stability when you've lost "everything": Dan Pomerantz
If you could only afford therapy or food - which would you choose?
It sounds like an odd question. We'd think that the obvious answer would be food.
That's the choice Dan Pomerantz weighed up at his personal rock bottom... and he chose... therapy.
It was a question of choosing to cultivate inner stability in order to get back on his feet and create the outer safety we all need.
While moving through homelessness, Dan looked to build his internal home which helped him develop the faculties to make the choices which would lead him towards an external life of alignment - eventually becoming the CEO of a company that was driving a mission close to his heart.
This is an episode about
- The ability to find unity points within conflict
- Using love as an ACTION - actively searching for the ways in which we can connect with people we might disagree with
- The power of learning how to trust the flow of Nature even when our histories tell us that life doesn’t always go our way
- How Dan transcended his experiences as a child of narcissistic abuse
- Living in alignment with dharma (right action)
- Following what is expansive for our growth… even when it’s hard
