About Stories From The Lost and Found: The Journey Back to Self
Have you ever felt lost — like no matter how much work you've done, something is still holding you back? There’s nothing wrong with you. There are simply parts of you that need your attention: stories and patterns you need space to be with. This podcast is here to give you tools to finally move forward.
I'm Krishna Avalon — subconscious therapist and breakthrough coach. I’ve spent 24 years cultivating a process that creates immediate change that lasts. My training includes PSYCH-K, Internal Family Systems (IFS), a master’s in psychology, and 24 years as an acupuncturist. Stories from the Lost and Found is where we go beneath the surface — into the subconscious programming, the wounded parts, and the real human experiences that shape who we are and how we live.
Each week I bring you solo episodes and honest guest conversations about healing, self-sabotage, relationships, and what it actually takes to find your way back to yourself. Expect depth, tools you can use, and stories that remind you you're not alone.
New episodes every Thursday. Come find the parts of yourself you thought were lost and the brilliance within you waiting to be found.

Takeaways What if your pain is a protector part of your system, not ...
