    Aug 9 2023

    In this episode, Heather's interviews Dan Caldwell of Caldwell Counseling Center who is both a Counselor and Interventionist on the topic of Interventions.   If you need a better understanding about interventions and the process, because possibly you have been considering getting help for a loved one, then this show will give you valuable information on the topic.

    Dan talks about the myths of interventions in detail, he lets listeners know that interventions are not to be seen as a way to punish someone, and the importance of having an intervention since it may be the very thing that will save a life.  He understands from his own personal experience how challenging it is to overcome addiction and the seriousness of getting help.  

    As you listen to him explain more about interventions, you will understand more about how to get the process started, the different types of interventions and how an interventionist can give you guidance on how to the help you find the "right" treatment center for your loved one.

    There were times as a family member when I was planning an intervention for a loved one that I would have really benefitted from the knowledge Dan shares in this podcast.  I really didn't know where to start, what the process was like and I worried whether or not I was doing the right thing by intervening on a loved one.  Really, an intervention can be handled in a respectfully and with love.

    I hope you will listen, because his insight and examples are definitely spot on! 

    Remember....You are not alone when considering what is best for someone you love who is living with addiction.  We are here to help!

  • Stop Being Surprised! How to Manage Your Emotions in a Relationship with a High Conflict Co-Parent
    Jul 26 2023

    In this episode, you're going to learn tips to help you keep your emotions in check post-divorce when you are in an on-going relationship with a high conflict co-parent.  If you struggle to keep the drama out communicating with your ex-spouse or constantly feel shocked by his/her behaviors, this show will give you a renewed sense of hope and strategies to use.  

    I am so happy to introduce Jayna Haney, who is the founder of The Bridge Across for Single Parents and Stepfamilies.  She understands from her own personal experience how challenging the relationships between co-parents can be after a divorce and how much stress and anxiety everyone feels.

    As you listen to her explain more about co-parenting, stepfamilies, and re-partnering and her examples, you will be so relieved to know you are not alone and what behaviors you can expect in high conflict co-parenting relationships.  

    I wished I would have known about these strategies years ago after I went through a divorce to give me the tools I needed to manage my own emotions and understand more about the behaviors to expect from my co-parent.  It would have saved me a lot of stress and allowed me to understand how to plan ahead when higher conflict times were to be expected.

    I want you to listen, because she is really going to change the way you experience this kind of relationship with insightful explanation and new great strategies to implement.

    Remember....You are not alone!

  • Man Courage - Helping Men Feel More Connected
    Jul 12 2023

    In this episode, Heather interviews Mike Haney,  who is the Founder of Man Courage.  As a men's coach, Mike helps successful, professional men find peace and confidence at home and connect better with their wives, children, family and community.  He has had 30+ years of life experiences as a husband, single parent, dad and step-dad, and understands the challenges men face in their family lives.  He identifies with how men, after life events, have feelings of grief/loss, loneliness, isolation, and stress from demanding careers and navigating their relationships at home.  Ultimately, men become less connected and this can lead to depression and anxiety and unhealthy coping skills to overcome these challenges.  He personally believes and shares with men the importance of being intentional through words and actions with their family in order to cultivate a loving environment for the whole family.  He has a passion for helping men be more intentional in their lives and describes this as "his fix" in his life and being of service to other men.
