Soul Health Mentor Podcast

From Dreaming
to Done™

The dream matters. And so does the human being living it.

What began as a dream, became a book.

What began as a book, became a podcast.

And what began as a podcast became a living conversation about what it truly takes to awaken, pursue, and live the dreams that matter to us.

Welcome to the Soul Health Mentor Podcast — a collection of conversations inspired by my books, shaped by my life, and dedicated to the art of dream completion.

My Story

Every Dream Has a Story. This Is Mine.

I'm Nadia Shana Krauss — writer, artist, creator, and founder of Soul Health Mentor & Co.

In 2011, I left Germany with a suitcase, a dream, and a one-way ticket to Miami.

The next day, I moved aboard a cruise ship to live and work.

I didn't know then that this decision would become the beginning of a much bigger journey — one that would take me through life in the United States, a new chapter in Canada, and the creation of a body of work dedicated to helping people bring meaningful dreams into reality.

Along the way, I began writing books.

And I began talking.

About dreams. About identity. About relationships. About the courage to change. About the patterns that keep us from living what matters most.

Somewhere along the way, those conversations became the Soul Health Mentor Podcast.

And eventually, I began to recognize something extraordinary.

My books, my podcast, and my own life were telling different chapters of the same story.

The story of a dream becoming a lived reality.

The Journey

Awakening → Identity → Relational Sovereignty → Embodiment

01Chapter One

Awakening

Before you can live your dream, you have to learn to trust yourself enough to trust it.

The Magic of Transformation

My first book, The Magic of Transformation — Igniting & Manifesting Your Soul Desire, was born during my years in the United States.

It explored the awakening of our dreams — those inner desires that call us toward something meaningful, even when we cannot yet see the whole path.

Inspired by this work, I began the Soul Health Mentor Podcast.

Across 102 episodes in English and German, I explored personal transformation, self-trust, creativity, and the courage to listen to our inner calling.

One episode, in particular, resonated more than any other.

Episode 33: Are You a Dreamer?

I didn't know then how significant that question would become.

Years later, I would write From Dreaming to Done™ and recognize the developmental journey I now call the Anatomy of a Dream, expressed through the Soul Map Spiral™.

But the conversation had already begun.

Identity

Awakening the dream is one thing. Becoming the person who can live it is another.

From Dreaming to Done™

After an 18-month podcast break, a move from the United States to Ottawa, Canada, and the publication of my second book, I returned to the microphone.

This time, the conversation had evolved.

From Dreaming to Done — A Soul Map for Finishing What You Were Born to Do was no longer simply about recognizing the dream.

It was about the human development required to bring it into reality.

I relaunched the podcast with a new trailer and created 27 new episodes inspired by my book, my experiences, and the authors and creators I was connecting with along the way.

We explored identity, self-actualization, the patterns we outgrow, and what happens when the life we're creating asks us to become someone we haven't yet learned how to be.

Because sometimes the dream isn't asking us to do more.

It's inviting us to become more fully ourselves.

Relational Sovereignty

You can love people without carrying their lives. You can pursue your dream without abandoning yourself.

The No Drama Path to Completion

As my work evolved, another dimension of dream completion became impossible to ignore.

Relationships.

The roles we assume. The responsibilities we carry. The patterns that shape how we relate to ourselves and others.

These discoveries inspired my companion book, From Dreaming to Done — The No Drama Path to Living What You Were Born to Do.

And with it came a seven-episode podcast series exploring the No Drama Path to Completion™.

Through the lenses of Sovereign, Ally, and Gatekeeper, these conversations invite us to examine how we can remain connected to others without losing our own agency.

Because living our dreams isn't only about who we become.

It's also about how we relate.

Embodiment

What if you could follow a book's journey before its first chapter is even written?

The Next Books Are Being Born

That's exactly what I'm inviting you to experience next.

I'm now developing Living in Your Empowered Body, Not Your Survival Body — From Dreaming to Done™, with English and German editions planned for 2028.

This next chapter of my work explores what it means to truly inhabit the life we've worked so hard to create.

Not merely to understand our dreams.

Not merely to accomplish them.

But to live them — with our creativity, our well-being, our relationships, and our capacity intact.

And this time, I'm bringing you into the creative process.

I'll be sharing personal stories, exploring chapter ideas, and speaking the emerging themes of my books into podcast conversations as I write.

Some conversations may become chapters.

Some may open entirely new questions.

All of them are part of a living, evolving body of work.

From Germany to North America — And Back to My Voice

Two Languages.
One Life's Work.

My journey began in Germany.

My first books and much of my professional work took shape in North America.

And now, as I prepare to write and publish in both English and German, I'm bringing those worlds together.

On the podcast, I'll be sharing more of the stories behind that journey — the choices, turning points, creative discoveries, and experiences that shaped the work I do today.

Not as a perfectly polished success story.

But as a living example of what happens when we continue listening to the dreams that call us forward.

Because a dream doesn't end when we accomplish something. Sometimes that's when its next chapter begins.

Beyond My Microphone

From Dreaming to Done™ — At the Enterprise Level

The Soul Health Mentor Podcast is where I share the evolution of my books and life's work.

But the journey from dreaming to done doesn't stop with the individual.

It extends into the businesses we create, the people we lead, and the enterprises we build.

Through Human-Centered Operations & Creative Leadership, I bring the philosophy of From Dreaming to Done™ into the world of entrepreneurship, leadership, and organizational development.

Because the same developmental patterns that shape our personal lives also influence how we lead, make decisions, build relationships, and operate our businesses.

I explore what happens when a founder becomes the operating system of their own enterprise.

When the business has grown, but the structures supporting it haven't evolved.

And when the very dream someone worked so hard to bring into reality begins consuming the life of the person who created it.

My work connects human development, creative leadership, and operational architecture — helping founders recognize what needs to evolve so their businesses can grow beyond their personal capacity without losing the human values that brought them to life.

These are the conversations I'm bringing to other podcasts.

Because From Dreaming to Done™ isn't only about bringing a dream into reality. It's about creating a reality that allows the dream — and the human being living it — to thrive.

The Philosophy Behind the Voice

SOUL · HEALTH · MENTOR · & CO.

When I chose the name Soul Health Mentor, I didn't fully understand how deeply it would reflect my life, my work, and my purpose.

But intuitively, I knew.

Today, I recognize what was there all along.

SOUL

The life force, creativity, and dreams that make us who we are.

HEALTH

Our well-being should never be the price we pay for success.

MENTOR

Helping people recognize their potential and navigate their own path, without taking responsibility for their choices.

& CO.

The human connections and conscious partnerships that bring meaningful dreams to life.

This philosophy lives in my books, my podcast, my Soul Art experiences, and my work with founders and leaders.

Because personal growth, leadership, relationships, and business operations are not separate worlds.

They shape one another.

We shouldn't have to choose between creating something meaningful and living a meaningful life.

Wherever You Are in Your Journey, There's a Conversation for You.

Maybe you're beginning to recognize a dream you've carried for years.

Maybe you're discovering that the person you've become no longer fits the life you've built.

Maybe you're learning to navigate relationships without losing yourself.

Or maybe you've already built something meaningful — and you're ready to truly live it.

Wherever you find yourself, I invite you to explore the conversations, discover the books, and follow the journey as it continues to unfold.

Because building the dream is only part of the journey.

You deserve to LIVE it, too. 💗
