  • Whose Voice Is That Anyway?

    Whose Voice Is That Anyway?
    Jun 26 2025

    SHORT DESCRIPTION

    Our inner critics can steal our dreams. Which is such a bummer because those nasty little gremlins aren’t even our own voices telling – and they are always giving us a false narrative. We have a choice though! We can decide what thoughts we allow – and with practice – we can have peace and joy!

    KEY TAKEAWAYS

    • Name it…
    • … And then take away it’s power and control
    • Is it true?...
    • … Of course not!

    BEST MOMENTS

    You’ve been criticizing yourself for years and it hasn’t worked. Try approving of yourself and see what happens. – Louise Hay

    Self-love means acknowledging your inner critic and choosing to silence it with self-compassion and kindness. –Unknown

    Tell the negative committee that meets inside your head to sit down and shut up. –Ann Bradford

    Say goodbye to your inner critic, and take this pledge to be kinder to yourself and others. --Oprah

    Dear Inner Critic. You will never be the boss of me. --Uknown

  • What You Tell Your Brain: Change Your Words, Change Your Life

    What You Tell Your Brain: Change Your Words, Change Your Life
    May 15 2025

    What you tell your brain is what it believes — and the messages you feed it matter more than you might think. This episode dives into how the external messages we allow, as well as our inner dialogue, shapes our habits, our health, and the way we feel about ourselves. Tune in for a compassionate reminder that your thoughts have power—and you have the ability to choose what they’re saying.

    KEY TAKEAWAYS

    • Stay resourced
      • Eat well
      • Sleep
      • Move
      • Nature
      • Breathe
      • Use music
    • Know your values and beliefs
    • Use Affirmations

    The stories you tell yourself and words you repeat to yourself become your reality. –Unknown

    You are your best thing. –Toni Morrison

    How you treat yourself is how you’re inviting the world to treat you. –Jane Travis

  • Interview with Dr. Alisha Guthery: From Surviving to Healing: A Conversation on Safety, Presence & Healing

    Interview with Dr. Alisha Guthery: From Surviving to Healing: A Conversation on Safety, Presence & Healing
    Apr 24 2025
    In this episode, we explore the heart of trauma work—not by focusing solely on the events themselves, but on the lasting impact they leave in our bodies. Trauma disconnects us from the present moment, often leaving us feeling unsafe in our own lives. But what if healing begins with reclaiming our ability to be fully present? Together, we’ll talk about how practicing presence can gently rewire the effects of trauma and expand our sense of safety—one moment at a time. Whether the trauma is political, interpersonal, or institutional, the common thread is the loss of safety and connection. This episode is an invitation to begin rebuilding those foundations, slowly and kindly, from the inside out. KEY TAKEAWAYS It's about really understanding and kind of figuring out the parts of your life that you are escaping because of the trauma. Practice doing something differently and notice how you feel. When we have our trauma lens on, we see what the trauma allows us to see, and we don't see anything else. We don't see the possibility or the opportunity. Everything survivors do is the skill of surviving. Sometimes surviving works against our ability to imagine. I call it being cloaked. If you weren't cloaked, then you would have to see. And it's so painful to see. Generational trauma is through missed opportunity of connection. So, because I was traumatized, I was now lost in attunement to my child. And so, it's missed opportunity of connection, missed opportunity of regulation, missed opportunity of co-regulation, missed opportunity of deep attunement to a child who really deserves all my attention. And when I am too traumatized to be able to attune, then the impact on them is great on their nervous system. And so to me, that's one way through attachment, that's one way that that trauma continues. Because now I've reshaped my child's nervous system by not attuning. Well, and then the great thing that we also have just as humans is the ability to continue to grow, have neuroplasticity, nothing is ever not changeable, really. BEST MOMENTS That stubborn decision — to keep getting up — saved me more times than I can count. Life life’s all the time. Even under the best of circumstances, it's stressful. I wonder if you could imagine that you’re not the problem. We are here to care for and be in relationship with others.

  • Designed for Hope: Interview with Jon Tunheim

    Designed for Hope: Interview with Jon Tunheim
    Mar 26 2025
    We can choose hope regardless of the environment we are in. We are wired and designed to be hopeful! We are wired to use our imagination to look at our future and create memories of that future and then think strategically about how to achieve our future goals. Hope is contagious too! We can connect with other hopeful people. Those that are always looking positively at the future and openly talking about - and chasing - their goals. It’s inspiring. And transfers hope – we become more hopeful by engaging with them. We learn how to be hopeful by watching them. Thanks Jon Tunheim for your wisdom and insights! KEY TAKEAWAYS Hope is a choice. You can learn to be hopeful and strengthen your hope skills. Here are the steps: See the future Set a goal Create strategies and pathways to move towards the goal Vary the pathway according to the obstacles you meet Use motivation and willpower to move forward and achieve that goal BEST MOMENTS It is hard to be a narcissist when you learn young that hope is believing in yourself, believing in others, and believing in your dreams. –Chan Hellman and Casey Gwinn Hope is not a step in life, it is a stance. It is easier to build strong children than to repair broken men. –Fredrick Douglass VALUABLE RESOURCES If you’re struggling in a relationship and wondering if it might be controlling, you’re not alone.
