Heal 2 Feel with Liat Gerszt & Mercedes Javid

Encore: Doug Boudin joins Heal 2 Feel for a candid, funny, and unexpectedly heartfelt conversation that goes far beyond what listeners usually hear on Jeff Lewis Live.
In this episode, Doug opens up about growing up in New York, knowing he was different from an early age, coming out after college, and what it’s been like to build a full life rooted in curiosity, humor, friendship, and authenticity. He shares stories about family, first crushes, past relationships, heartbreak, and the kind of partner he’d still love to find.
Doug also talks about how he first connected with Jeff Lewis, what it’s really like being part of the Jeff Lewis Live universe, how he handles teasing and criticism, and why the joy of live radio has become such a meaningful creative outlet for him.
The conversation also dives into Doug’s love of cooking, his Instagram live series Cook & Kibbitz, his truffle salt collaboration, and the career dreams he’s still manifesting — from lasting love to a series regular role.
It’s warm, witty, vulnerable, and full of the exact charm that has made Doug such a beloved voice.

In Part 1 of our highly anticipated conversation with Jeff Lewis (with Shane Douglas by his side), we go beyond the headlines and into the human behind the voice.
Jeff opens up about friendship fallouts, being labeled "the villain" on reality TV, and the hard-earned shift from caring what everyone thinks to protecting his peace. He shares the story of coming out, navigating family dynamics, losing his mother at 18, and how those early experiences shaped his drive, independence, and relationships.
We also talk about the power of truth (and why lying is Jeff's biggest trigger), boundaries, therapy, fatherhood, and how Monroe changed everything.
In this episode, we cover:
Jeff's "accidental" path into fame and becoming the breakout of a teaser reel

Handling criticism, public perception, and why he lives in a "bubble" now

Coming out: when he knew, how his family reacted, and what surprised him most

Losing his mom at 18 and the guilt he carried (plus a powerful reframing)

Being left alone at 13, growing independence, and how it connects to attachment

Boundaries, friendship breakups, and the one person he admits he still misses

Dating, love languages, and what Jeff wants now vs. 10 years ago

Shane's perspective: working with Jeff, the "extra step" mindset, and the funny daily quirks

A tease for Part 2: Scary Sherri + a reading you will not see coming

Next episode:
Part 2 drops next week and includes Scary Sherri + psychic readings Jeff & Shane won't forget.

Kimberly Meredith joins Heal 2 Feel to share the incredible story behind her near-death experience (2012), the return of her childhood gifts, and how she understands healing through "God as energy," intuition, and the 5th dimension. The conversation explores her early paranormal experiences, why she suppressed her abilities, her nursing + Hollywood medical-tech career, and the moment everything changed. Kimberly also offers practical ways to "stay healed," talks collective shifts (Aquarian Age / shedding seasons), and gives a powerful intuitive moment for the hosts.
Quick note: This episode includes spiritual perspectives and personal experiences and is not a substitute for medical advice.
