In this episode Jess welcomes Nic Tufts (Hierophunk) — a Nova Scotia–based artist, music producer, and wisdom keeper. Nic’s path has been shaped by extraordinary experiences, from a near-death awakening in Thailand to healing stage 3 cancer through fasting and spiritual guidance.
With a background in bioacoustics and over two decades of study in ancient and indigenous teachings, Nic now creates music designed not just for the dance floor, but for healing — frequencies that work with the body’s rhythms, spine, and nervous system to activate our internal Akashic memory.
Together, Jess and Nic explore:
Music as medicine and the science of sound
The return of Mū and Nic’s connection with teacher K’eoni Hanalei
Lessons from near-death, healing, and spiritual discipline
Why neutrality is the most powerful force for navigating today’s world
How authenticity and community bring us closer to collective healing
Listen to the end for a bonus track, Divine Chaos!
