Today's episode is a true "sneak attack" mini-session I recorded on the spot because the shift happened so fast, I wanted you to hear it in real time.

At first, I introduced my guest "JoJo" as a code name. Then we reveal the big moment: "JoJo" is actually my mom, Nancy Brindisi, and this is her first-ever time on the podcast!

My mom is in that brave space of considering dating again after years, and the negative self-talk started spiraling. So I walked her through one simple practice that stopped the mental loop within minutes, and the calm that followed was unmistakable.

In this episode, I share:

• Why negative self-talk often spikes when you're stepping into something new, especially dating again
• How I work with "parts" as energetic parts work (working with the energy of the judging, doubting part)
• A practical way to borrow supportive energy when you can't access your Adult Chair in the moment
• How this practice can come through as words, images, or a felt sense, and why your way is the right way
