The WakeUp Protocol
Something inside of you knows… there’s more. You’re right!
The WakeUp Protocol is a podcast for sensitive, curious souls who know there’s more to life than what we’ve been taught.
Hosted by Nadja Haldimann, this is a space for big questions, deep remembering, and honest conversations about what it means to come back to your true self, beneath the conditioning, beyond the mask, outside the matrix.
Each week, you’ll hear from guests who are in it too, navigating their own awakenings with courage and grace. We talk about grief, near-death experiences, psychedelics, illness as initiation, visions, and the mysteries that science hasn’t yet caught up with, but our bodies and hearts already know to be true.
This is a space for remembering and fierce truths. For sovereignty, soul, and the kind of conversations that leave you changed.
If you’re waking up... welcome home.

Fearless and Connected: From Corporate Climb to Soul-Led Living with Terry Pooler
What if the true path to fulfillment was hidden beneath the pain we’re taught to avoid?
In this episode of The WakeUp Protocol, Nadja Haldimann and co-host Colin Shanteau sit down with Terry Pooler, a life fulfillment coach, author, and visionary whose journey cracked open after a friend called her, unexpectedly healed from suicidal thoughts following a psilocybin journey. A moment that sparked Terry’s deep dive into the healing potential of plant medicine.
Terry’s journey led her from corporate success and disconnection to deep self-inquiry, emotional release, and the realization that we are all already connected, just not taught how to feel it. Her story is one of reclaiming inner freedom, embodying the divine, and guiding others back to themselves through the wisdom of the body, breath, and truth-telling.
Together, they explore:
- How being kidnapped to Iran and returning solo to the U.S. shaped Terry’s resilience
- What it felt like to climb the corporate ladder and why she walked away from success
- The moment of awakening sparked by a friend’s healing psilocybin experience
- Why emotions aren’t the problem—they’re the path to healing
- The difference between emotional processing and true emotional healing
- How breath and movement create inner safety
- Reclaiming the body as a path to intuition and real connection
- Why your truth lives in the body, not the mind
- The role of community in healing, integration, and remembering who we are
This episode is for anyone feeling disconnected from their truth, tired of performing for love, or ready to move beyond old programming and into embodied liberation.
