Mike and Chaya sit down with Briana McCallum, founder of Divine Empowerment Coaching, who helps neurodivergent people and caregivers build regulation, self-trust, and resilience. Briana opens up about her path from an medication-resistant kid to becoming a Reiki master, how alternative healing finally brought her peace, and drawing insight from her own lived experience as a neurodivergent woman and parent. She breaks down the gut-mind connection, the hidden physical toll of masking, and exactly how to regulate a dysregulated nervous system so you can stop fighting your own wiring.

Briana McCallum is an ACCP International Board Certified Life Coach from Jay Shetty's Certification School and a Neurodiversity Empowerment Coach specializing in helping neurodivergent individuals and their caregivers achieve their goals and set themselves up for success.
Using her trinity coaching model — combining mind, body, and spiritual health — she approaches every goal, dream, and aspiration with a full-circle wellness perspective.
With 4 years of Life Skills Leadership at Cooperiis Healing Farm, 20+ years of studies in psychology, sociology, and human development, and over 30 years of lived experience, Briana brings a deeply personal and professional foundation to her work.
She is also a Reiki Master, holistic health consultant, medium, and the founder of LMH Custom Teas & Herbs LLC — a trinity wellness company blending botanical medicine, energy healing, and personalized coaching support.
As a neurodivergent woman who could not tolerate medications, Briana was forced to navigate her own path to wellness — moving through cycles of depression, anxiety, and chronic pain using holistic and integrative approaches. That lived necessity became the foundation of the coaching practice she offers today through Divine EMP Coaching.
