Velvet's Edge with Kelly Henderson: Recent Episodes

Nashville Podcast Network

Hi, I am Kelly Henderson and my greatest fulfillment in life comes from connecting with people. I have worked as a stylist and hair and makeup artist in the country music industry for over 12 years. My business is beauty, and this podcast allows me to take a deeper look at not only external beauty, but also beauty on a greater scale – the beauty that come from inside each of us. I like conversations that will stretch and challenge me. Some interviews will include hard conversations like infertility, racism and spirituality on many different levels, while others in the 'Act Casual' series may include uncomfortable, yet laughable topics about sex and dating. Obviously, because I am in Nashville and work in the country music industry, you will also find conversations with some of country music’s biggest stars such as Jason Aldean and Dierks Bentley and their wives. Ultimately, I am a curious person who loves learning about why we do what we do as people and why we are all really here. Join me to explore the ‘Velvet’ and the ‘Edge’ in life.

Jackson Hightower is the founder of Natural Jackson, a company whose mission is physical, mental, sexual self mastery. Jackson helps men reclaim their vitality, confidence, and purpose through private coaching, online courses, and herbal supplements. He also provides the tools and guidance men need to optimize their health, performance, and pleasure.

Jackson joins Kelly to discuss the lack of sexual education in our current society and how that is causing problems and lack of fulfillment in our own personal lives and relationships. In his work, Jackson challenges men to take charge of their sexual energy and utilize the complete power of their life force energy by laying down the porn and using tools like 'edging" during sex with a partner.

However, before you zone out and think this is about restriction via sex, Jackson and Kelly also talk about the benefits of sex when it is being lived on full spectrum and the greater capacity we can all find in this lifetime when we are dialed into our sexual power.

They also discuss the massive rise of erectile dysfunction, especially in young men, why it's happening and how to fix it. Jackson also gives his number one tip for keeping it sexy, long term, in a relationship.

In an unscripted, unprepared episode, Kelly records a conversation between herself and her friend, Melody Godfred, about taking a mental health break. Kelly talks about the breakdown she had the week prior and Melody shares her experience with the Fred and Far owner and being an author and pausing it all to take an indefinite break to take care of her mental health, what that looks like and why. Kelly describes the moment she wrote in her journal "who the fuck am I?" and why her inability to answer that question led her to finally let go of all the striving and plan to pause.

Unless you live under a rock, you have seen the headlines about Brittany and Abby Hensel, conjoined twins who are making news recently about Abby getting married. The thing most people aren't reading about is that this happened in 2021, yet somehow just making news by going viral on social media. Of course this topic is super complex and brings up A LOT of questions, but the bigger point being how the twins are being treated on social media and in the press. Kelly and Chip discuss some of the issues they see happening with our current consumption of information and mis-truths, but also bring up the lack of empathy and kindness that seems like the natural reaction nowadays to anything and everything. They also discuss their questions about the complexities of the twin's lives and give some interesting information about their lives not being written about in the tabloids.

Trauma is a buzzword, but how do you identify if you have trauma and what do we actually do to recover from it? It’s safe to say that all humans do at this point, and if you didn’t before the pandemic, that collective trauma may have had a deeper impact on you than you realize. According to trauma specialist and coach, Ali Kates, we are now in a mental health pandemic where people are suffering, but don’t know what to do.

In both a fun-filled and more serious conversation, Ali walks Kelly through her top tips for identifying and recovering from trauma, including three simple tricks you can incorporate into your daily routine.

Ali talks about the importance of having a hobby as it relates to mental health. Women, this one's for you! She gives recommendations of ideas for hobbies as well as questions to ask yourself to figure out what kind of hobby you may like. And if you are reading this thinking, I don’t have time for a hobby, there is discussion about that as well as how common it is for women specifically to not have hobbies.

Ali brings up the feeling of feeling “behind in life” and explains why that feeling specifically is often related to a traumatic experience.

The women also discuss the truth about anger, where it’s actually coming from, why expressing it can be very difficult for some people and overly used for others.

The last part of the conversation is dedicated to deciphering “victim mode” and what that actually is and how to find gratitude and growth through pain.

Hi y'all- Kelly here. In the last NEW 'Velvet' episode this year, I felt like I needed to tap into one of my biggest walls/fears- solo episodes. If you have listened to the podcast this year, you know my word of the year was 'DARE,' so it only felt appropriate to face something I feel scared of. Not saying this is a rational fear, but sometimes we just gotta walk through it to get to the other side.
In today's episode, I talked about the one way that I've learned to actually 'nurture' my soul that will probably be a bit surprising, but it's been a massive game changer for me in how I live my life and where I find my peace. Take what you like and leave the rest!

"When you can understand your human design chart, you understand your truth. Oftentimes when we're trying to change our lives, we're doing it the way we think we should do it. Whereas with human design, it's literally our energetic blueprint, and it flips the transformation process... You take a look at your energetic blueprint, and through that process, you can shed your conditioning and then create a mindset that supports the blueprint"

Kelly and Chip revisit a conversation with sex expert, Susan Bratton, that has them asking the question - does sex get better with age?
Plenty of studies and research have suggested that sex does get better with age, and that it's a habit that only improves with experience and understanding of self. So contrary to common myth, you're unlikely to be having the best sex of your life in your 20s. That particular accolade kicks in a few years later. -https://www.flashpack.com/us/solo/relationships/better-sex-30s-40s-empowerment/#:~:text=Plenty%20of%20studies%20and%20research,in%20a%20few%20years%20later.

In this conversation, Susan is discussing the importance of sex for mental health, but ends up telling a story about having sex with her husband the night before and what that looks like in her 60’s. Susan addresses how unhappy she was previously in their sex life and what changed for her and them once she decided to voice her needs and they began exploring more. Susan also explains how that situation ultimately led her to create her current business of teaching couples about having heart connected, mind blowing sex at any age.

"Find people who have what you want and learn how they got it."

Kelly uses that tip to have a conversation with healing and movement teacher, Melissa Sgambelluri. Melissa's story of being on American Idol and getting out of toxic relationships-to finding her true self in a new career and love in a safe, loving, growth oriented relationship is intriguing to say the least. Kelly describes Melissa's energy as playful, warm, calm, peaceful, confident and creative and Melissa tells the story of how and why she got there.
Melissa explains why so many women are facing burnout.
"Sometimes the true power of the feminine is in the power of letting yourself be." Melissa talks about the messiness of healing, the power of not forcing and the beauty in owning your uniqueness.
"Everyone is out there trying to have the same body type and do the same thing, but your true power is in being uniquely you. Everyone comes here with their own gift or gifts."
Melissa reminds us that nobody actually has it figured out and encourages everyone to take some of the pressure off of ourselves. On most days (regardless of how it looks online) most people are just doing the best they can that day. We say "I am not there yet........except 'yet' actually doesn't exist."

: Kelly welcomes writer, podcaster, and entrepreneur with a passion for storytelling, Nicole Christie. Founder & CEO of Tulla (tools) Productions, and host of the Here For Me Podcast. Nicole spent many years working in communications for Microsoft and it wasn't until she had two major health crises back to back that she realized she needed a life change. Nicole speaks to the way our body processes or doesn't process emotions and how that can manifest physically. She also speaks to the chronic stress she was under working in the corporate world while trying to manage a marriage with narcissistic abuse. Nicole and Kelly both let the listeners into the inner workings of their similar relationships and talk about how being a part of those relationships looked in their lives.

"For me it isn't about diagnosing anyone else anymore, it's about listening to my body when it's speaking to me and not trying to turn the other way. It's about how I am behaving and feeling in each situation, not the other person."
The women also talk about the recovery process from a relationship like this and often how difficult it is to actually leave.

"I kept saying to people- I just want my brain back."

The conversation is candid, but raw and real.

Trauma is a buzzword, but how do you identify if you have trauma and what do we actually do to recover from it? It’s safe to say that all humans do at this point, and if you didn’t before the pandemic, that collective trauma may have had a deeper impact on you than you realize. According to trauma specialist and coach, Ali Kates, we are now in a mental health pandemic where people are suffering, but don’t know what to do.

In both a fun-filled and more serious conversation, Ali walks Kelly through her top tips for identifying and recovering from trauma, including three simple tricks you can incorporate into your daily routine.

Ali talks about the importance of having a hobby as it relates to mental health. Women, this one's for you! She gives recommendations of ideas for hobbies as well as questions to ask yourself to figure out what kind of hobby you may like. And if you are reading this thinking, I don’t have time for a hobby, there is discussion about that as well as how common it is for women specifically to not have hobbies.

Ali brings up the feeling of feeling “behind in life” and explains why that feeling specifically is often related to a traumatic experience.

The women also discuss the truth about anger, where it’s actually coming from, why expressing it can be very difficult for some people and overly used for others.

The last part of the conversation is dedicated to deciphering “victim mode” and what that actually is and how to find gratitude and growth through pain.

Kelly talks to renowned filmmaker and director, Louie Schwartzberg about his latest global initiative, Gratitude Revealed. Louie has spent his notable career providing breathtaking imagery using time-lapse, high speed, and macro cinematography techniques to break barriers as a visual artist that connects with audiences and tells stories that celebrate life and reveal the mysteries and wisdom of nature, people and places. Kelly and Louie talk about the importance of gratitude on mental and physical health, why people who have been through hardship are often the most grateful and why real gratitude doesn't come from anything material.
"Ultimately, gratitude is a way of life.....even the hardships are activators of our potential. To look at it that way isn't easy, but it comes with practice."

Kelly is joined by her "brain therapist," certified LENS practitioner, Sheri Rowney, to talk about neurofeedback therapy and why it works. Sheri breaks down the way the wiring in the brain works and what happens to our brains when we experience something traumatic to alter that wire.

"The interesting thing about our brains is that they are literally always just trying to keep us safe. Sometimes they just go about the wrong way of doing that and it impedes our normal function."

Kelly spoke openly about how this particular therapy has helped her dramatically in the last few months after feeling like she was "sleepwalking" through life and unable to find any motivation or drive or even normal thought processes.

"I just kept saying, I just want to feel like myself again and when you told me that 95% of my brain was in Delta (sleeping state) and that you could wake it back up, it was the biggest relief I've felt in years."

Sheri describes the massive amount of patients she sees that have been deeply impacted by "Covid Brain" and talks through what is happening with that virus and our brains.

Kelly here, hi. I am reposting this podcast this week because I simply do not know what else to do. After a mass shooting, that ended in 7 people (including 3 children) dead, just down the road from my home in Nashville this week, I do not have the words yet to talk about this again. Many of my close friends and specifically their children were greatly impacted by this shooting and to say that brings this issue being in your backyard brings it to the forefront of your mind is an understatement. I will be back to discuss more of what that is like at some point in the future, but in the meantime, I’m begging you all-no matter where you stand politically- put it to the side. This is bigger than your ego or own personal feelings. This is our children’s lives, safety and freedom. Listen to this podcast, take the actionable steps, compromise and try to work together. If we can’t unite over innocent children dying, we are further fucked than I even imagined. Sending love and healing energy to everyone in Nashville right now.


Retired US Army Veteran, gun owner and gun violence survivor, Melody McFadden, joins Kelly and Chip to simplify the conversation about gun laws and gun violence.

"I don't want your guns, because I don't want to give you my guns."

Melody tells the stories of loss she has faced at the hands of unsafe gun use and also how simple it could be to make those moments safe.

On the date this was recorded in mid June, 3,599 people in America had been shot and killed since the mass shooting in Uvalde, TX on May 24.

"You have to get a driver's license to drive a car, why shouldn't we have safety measures about owning guns?"

Melody is full of love, faith and helpful small action steps we can all take to make our country a safe place to live.

As seen on Oprah Winfrey and Ellen Degeneres, past-life psychic. spiritual teacher and award-winning author, Ainslie MacLeod, joins Kelly to talk about soul ages, soul personalities, past lives and more. Ainslie describes his hesitant journey to accepting his psychic abilities and how he communicates with spirit guides now to give people information about their own soul's journey. Kelly asks Ainslie to explain why he believes that our own understanding of our past lives is the place where we can find the most healing for our current life experience.
"Remember, your destiny is not some intangible, distant goal that you might, if you are lucky, discover before you die. As long as it's consistent with your life plan, your destiny is what you're doing right now."

Ainslie explains soul families and those weird moments where you meet a total stranger, yet you feel like you've known them for years. He also details his beliefs about what happens to souls and where they go in between lives here on earth.

"In choosing circumstances of its birth, your soul was actually thinking, 'what circumstances do I need to help me evolve?' Your soul is nothing if not pragmatic and it's elected your family for its own personal development."

He also describes how young soul's and old soul's personalities are being played out politically right now.

With this month's words "Dare" & "Purpose" in mind, Kelly revisits a conversation she had with iconic fashion designer, Norma Kamali. Norma Kamali is one google search away from loads of outward success stories- from Farrah Fawcett's classic red swimsuit, to the "Carrie" dress on Sex and the City- her designs have catapulted a career in fashion for over 50 years. However, in true Velvet's Edge form, those stories of her successes as well as failures launched a much deeper conversation about true life purpose, finding your soulmate and the lessons in the ups and downs of life.
"I found my soulmate at 65," Norma Kamali tells Kelly. "And I simply wasn't ready for him before that. From failed marriages to childhood happenings, I had a lot to sort out within myself."
Ms. Kamali laughs when Kelly says "I'm about to turn 40 and I had this mentality at first, like, my life is done. It's over!" and rebuddles "that's hilarious. You are just getting started."
Kamali tells her stories of being broke while having her designs run in major magazines like Vogue and is the greatest reminder of not comparing your insides with others outsides and staying the course to your own purpose.
Her story is powerful and inspiring. She is the definition of daring.

They each speak to why these stories tie into their words and how the experience is inspiring to live daringly and with purpose, whether you agree with Harry and Meghan or not.

Kelly talks to LCSW, Yahoo's #1 relationship expert and author of MANifesting Love: A Step by Step Guide to Attracting the Love That is Meant For You, Jaime Bronstein, about the simple ways to attract the love you want. Jaime speaks about the top ways she sees clients block themselves from finding the relationships of their dreams and how our outside experiences reflect our inner reality.
"If we are disconnected from ourselves, feeling bad and living life believing we are unworthy of love, the universe will honor exactly that. Through the law of attraction, it will bring us partners who validate that we are not worthy of love, because that is what we believe about ourselves. That's the message we are sending."
Jaime puts the words of the month (dare, purpose) into practice and talks about dating apps strengths and struggles and how to use them to your benefit, as well as overcoming any fear you may feel when it comes to dating, putting yourself out there or relationships.

With so much change happening in our world the past few years, Master Astrologer, Marvin Wilkerson joins Kelly to discuss the way feminine energy will impact and rebuild our future. Marv explains that feminine energy is inside each of us, both men and women, and how the suppression of that energy built the world of the past and how the future depends on understanding and embracing that energy.
"We can't go back, so we've got to move forward in a new way."
Kelly and Marv discuss the handling of football player, Damar Hamlin's injury during Monday Night Football was the perfect example of our cultures shift into feminine over masculine energy and how the compassion and empathy that was embraced is a part of that.
Marv breaks down "Asteroid Goddesses" that are both mythological and astrological and how that energy applies to each of our astrology charts, reminding listeners that an astrology chart is the map of your life. Marv explains that our sun signs, which is the typical pop culture reference to astrology, are actually just a tiny portion of how astrology works in our lives. He gives Kelly a breakdown of her goddess energy and she is shocked by how spot on the description is to her, especially relationally.
They also discuss ways to use your sexual energy in creativity in your life.

Many of you may know singer/songwriter, Blessing Offor, as the outstanding vocalist who sang so strongly he had all four judges turn their chairs around. Although his talent is something only dreams are made of, it's his sroty of hardship and then his positive outlook on life that makes him the magnetic human that he is. Blessing was born without vision in his left eye and lost vision in his right eye in an accident as a young boy. To most, this would be a tragedy hard to recover from, for Blessing it was his call to channel that hardship into purpose.
"If you told me I had the chance to do that moment (losing vision in his right eye) all over again, I would say, where do I stand? I would do it exactly as it happened, because that moment is the moment that shaped me into who I am today."
Blessing talks about the one question he asks himself when he is having a hard time or bad day/moment:
"We put so much energy into what's wrong, like the traffic, and what I know is that it's never really about the traffic. There is always something deeper that's actually going on."
His favorite quote:
"Grief carves a canyon, so that joy can overflow it."
And the best tidbit his therapist ever pointed out to him about the human condition: "Sitting with yourself is a truly POWERFUL thing."
Blessing also tells Chip and Kelly about his musical inspirations, new music coming up and where listeners can go on the journey with him.

He talks about what his relationship with alcohol looked like including years without drinking at all, the self sabotage that was a part of his disease and the relationships that he was on the brink of losing. “Alcohol was the most important thing to me. Period. I couldn’t imagine my life without drinking.” 
He also talks about finding his greatest life in his sobriety and the greatest gift being the relationships he is able to have because of it. 
And the moment he relates to finding freedom with a therapist: “I had to go all around the world, just to get across the street….but then the therapist said to me, ‘yeah, but you got across the street.’”

Sober Curious Update
Description: Kelly gives updates on where she stands with alcohol and her sober curious journey. She answers email questions about whether or not she is drinking at all, what today looks like and what cutting out alcohol completely for 10 months taught her.
“Being sober curious means, literally, to choose to question, or get curious about, every impulse, invitation, and expectation to drink, versus mindlessly going along with the dominant drinking culture.” -Ruby Warrington
“It was an interesting realization to see how disconnected from self I had become and the level of self respect that came from starting to choose myself and respecting my body. Ultimately, in many ways removing alcohol has really aided in my relationship with self.”
The duo discussed mindless drinking and how alcohol is treated as a solution to everything in our culture. Kelly addressed why being sober curious doesn’t mean you have a problem with alcohol.
“It’s actually so empowering. When someone says ‘do you want to drink?’ You actually pause and ask yourself- ‘do I want a drink right now?’ I just don’t think it hurts to ask the questions.”
They also address the massive physical benefits Kelly discovered, including a drastic change in her anxiety levels.
“You start to crave different things- a 20 minute walk, a quiet 10 minutes where you breathe deeply and connect to your body, 2 minutes of dancing around the room. You brain adjusts to new ways to get the hit of dopamine and they actually last longer and have no negative hangover effects.”
Chip talks about his own journey of cutting back on alcohol.

It’s spooky season, which makes it the best time to look at the shadow selves within each of us. Master Astrologer, Marvin Wilkerson, joins Kelly to educate listeners on the deep repressed parts of ourselves called the shadow. Marv answers questions like: What is the shadow? How do we know something is a part of our shadow? How do we work with those parts of ourselves and use them to grow and evolve?

“The essence of bravery is being without self-deception. However, it’s not so easy to take a straight look at what we do. Seeing ourselves clearly is initially uncomfortable and embarrassing.” -Pema Chodron

Marv describes how the shadow will present itself in our lives and how we are co-creators in all that we go through as humans. It’s all here to teach us something and enlighten us.

“You learn best from pain and you don’t forget pain.” - Marv

“In this life, no one person is better than anyone else. We all have a shadow. In fact, the only way we recognize things in other people is because they are within us.”

Many of you may know singer/songwriter, Blessing Offor, as the outstanding vocalist who sang so strongly he had all four judges turn their chairs around. Although his talent is something only dreams are made of, it's his sroty of hardship and then his positive outlook on life that makes him the magnetic human that he is. Blessing was born without vision in his left eye and lost vision in his right eye in an accident as a young boy. To most, this would be a tragedy hard to recover from, for Blessing it was his call to channel that hardship into purpose.
"If you told me I had the chance to do that moment (losing vision in his right eye) all over again, I would say, where do I stand? I would do it exactly as it happened, because that moment is the moment that shaped me into who I am today."
Blessing talks about the one question he asks himself when he is having a hard time or bad day/moment:
"We put so much energy into what's wrong, like the traffic, and what I know is that it's never really about the traffic. There is always something deeper that's actually going on."
His favorite quote:
"Grief carves a canyon, so that joy can overflow it."
And the best tidbit his therapist ever pointed out to him about the human condition: "Sitting with yourself is a truly POWERFUL thing."
Blessing also tells Chip and Kelly about his musical inspirations, new music coming up and where listeners can go on the journey with him.

How many times do you hear women voice frustration about "toxic masculinity" or "all men are assholes" and "men suck?" Kelly welcomes Connor Beaton, author, speaker and founder of Man Talks, to discuss a different perspective to all of these narratives and how he has created a world where men can actually heal old wounds and show up to be the men they either want to be or pretend they are.
"Unless a man is brought on the journey of powerlessness, he will always abuse power."
Connor sheds insight on why men feel so much pressure to perform, their carried shame and why many men don't feel the therapy world is a place to really grow and change.

"Easy is generally not meaningful. Easy is not fulfilling. Especially for men. Do the hard things or the hard things do you."

"Find people who have what you want and learn how they got it."

Kelly uses that tip to have a conversation with healing and movement teacher, Melissa Sgambelluri. Melissa's story of being on American Idol and getting out of toxic relationships-to finding her true self in a new career and love in a safe, loving, growth oriented relationship is intriguing to say the least. Kelly describes Melissa's energy as playful, warm, calm, peaceful, confident and creative and Melissa tells the story of how and why she got there.  Melissa explains why so many women are facing burnout.  "Sometimes the true power of the feminine is in the power of letting yourself be." Melissa talks about the messiness of healing, the power of not forcing and the beauty in owning your uniqueness.  "Everyone is out there trying to have the same body type and do the same thing, but your true power is in being uniquely you. Everyone comes here with their own gift or gifts." Melissa reminds us that nobody actually has it figured out and encourages everyone to take some of the pressure off of ourselves. On most days (regardless of how it looks online) most people are just doing the best they can that day.  We say "I am not there yet........except 'yet' actually doesn't exist." It's all about today and the now. 

Helpful dating tip: She explains the difference between a true masculine energy and a masculine man operating from a feminine energy (think bar fights and chaos).

Hi guys, Kelly here. I have randomly had multiple messages regarding this podcast lately and I can't help but feel it is the universe speaking to you guys and me about something really important right now. I think we can all agree that times are tough right now and extra heavy and I personally believe we are all being challenged in a way that is asking us to level up. To me, "leveling up" means evolve and grow and learn and keep learning. I also believe this involves getting to know ourselves and understanding the things that make us tick. I love therapy for this reason, but I also am beginning to understand the bigger picture of what else is happening around us. It's more than a mind thing, it's a soul thing. In this conversation I had with Mystic Michaela, she uses her psychic abilities to read my aura and explain what the different aura colors mean for everyone. If you have never heard of this, don't zone out just yet. These descriptions can be a major contributor to understanding your personality, who you should be in relationship with and even your life's purpose. Let's level up together my friends.
