In this episode I explore the hidden world of emotional inheritance—those unconscious fears, patterns, and traumas passed down through generations that quietly shape our choices, using a simple cupboard habit as proof that even tiny actions carry ancestral echoes. I guide you through science-backed ways to uncover and release these invisible burdens, so you can reclaim your freedom and author a lighter legacy.

Quotes:

“Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will direct your life and you will call it fate.” ― C.G. Jung

“The people we love and those who raised us live inside us; we experience their emotional pain, we dream their memories, we know what was not explicitly conveyed to us, and these things shape our lives in ways that we don’t always understand.” ― Galit Atlas, Emotional Inheritance: A Therapist, Her Patients, and the Legacy of Trauma

"We only become what we are by the radical and deep-seated refusal of that which others have made of us." -Jean-Paul Sartre

"Freedom is what you do with what's been done to you." -Jean-Paul Sartre

“We carry emotional material that belongs to our parents and grandparents, retaining losses of theirs that they never fully articulated. We feel these traumas even if we don’t consciously know them. Old family secrets live inside us.” ― Galit Atlas, Emotional Inheritance: A Therapist, Her Patients, and the Legacy of Trauma

In this episode I look at how media propaganda messes with what we believe and how we see the world. I show how media narratives are often driven by money or power. I dive into three examples of news stories that changed societal perception -but were all lies. These stories, going all the way back to the 1800s stick around for generations, shaping how we think.

Best of all, I show you simple ways to test for truth—to help you cut through the lies. The episode’s about empowering everyone to question what they hear and dig for the truth with a bit of curiosity and critical thinking.

We've all felt it; that moment when we're overcome by the beauty of a moment. Maybe it's in the vastness of nature or maybe at the birth of a child. The joy crashes in and envelopes us. But what about the small joys and beauty found in the moment? Are you able to let those in?

In this episode I talk about how to be more open to the beauty of the moment -and how to make joy a daily practice.

SHOW NOTES

“The moment one gives close attention to anything, even a blade of grass, it becomes a mysterious, awesome, indescribably magnificent world in itself.” -Henry Miller

It’s not only their unbelievable stature, nor the color which seems to shift and vary under your eyes, no, they are not like any trees we know, they are ambassadors from another time.” -John Steinbeck

“Not until we are lost do we begin to find ourselves.” – Henry David Thoreau

“When you lose yourself, you find the key to paradise.” – Lyrics from the song Knee Deep by Zac Brown Band

"When I let go of what I am, I become what I might be." - Lao Tzu

"The kingdom of God is within you." Luke 17:21 -The Bible,

In this episode, I explore how the fear of living, as William James called the "favorite disease of the twentieth century," holds us back from our true potential. I dive into the terror of failure, judgment, and losing joy, using inspiring stories of Harriet Tubman, Frida Kahlo, and Steve Jobs to show how courage breaks these chains. With insights from Carl Jung’s "shadow" and Anaïs Nin’s wisdom on courage, I offer a practical tool to face this fear and expand your life.

SHOW NOTES

Quotes:

“The fear of life is the favorite disease of the twentieth century.” -William James

“When you’re doing something new, people don’t understand it, and they think you’re crazy. But when it works, suddenly they call you a genius.” -Steve Jobs

“Life shrinks or expands in proportion to one’s courage.” -Anaïs Nin

In this episode I explore how a famous experiment in 1951 reveals the danger of herd mentality and talk about the ways we are being influenced by it today. I dive into the subtle signs of herd mentality—like blind agreement and self-censorship—and how it traps us in comfort over truth, from workplaces to social media. Offering practical steps, I share how curiosity, diverse perspectives, and self-reflection can break free from this mental cage, fostering personal growth and authenticity, with wisdom from Nietzsche, JFK, and Steve Jobs underlining the point.

SHOW NOTES

Quotes:

"Conformity is the jailer of freedom and the enemy of growth." – John F. Kennedy

"The individual has always had to struggle to keep from being overwhelmed by the tribe." – Friedrich Nietzsche

"Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice." – Steve Jobs
