Authentic Conversations

In this episode, we briefly discuss the birthday of co-host Susan Cooney as well as going into the origination of our ego, what it means when we get older and how to embrace and be aware of it.

In this episode, Susan discusses her current journey of utilizing her experience as a counselor as well as yoga and meditation and how it lead her down the distinct road of helping student athletes.  Not only has this lead her to her other podcast, The Athlete Whisperer, but now on the coaching staff for college athletes.  She discusses how it's important to follow your heart and to pay attention when the universe is showing you signs.

In this episode, Danielle Warn returns to discuss a variety of topics.  We cover life after college and whether college adequately preps you for the real world.  We cover the current trend of 'quiet quitting' as well as the affects of technology on our mental health and social development.

In this episode, we have a conversation with Chrysanthe, who studies astrology.  We discuss the energies around signs and elements and how that plays into our every day lives, our thought processes and our emotional reaction to real life situations.  

In this special episode, we have special guest Roxy Moncada-Salinas.  Roxy runs her own wellness and fitness company and is a wellness coach for many.  Roxy discusses her self doubt in starting the business as well as how her business has grown through the pandemic.  She also discusses how much changing her diet helped her mentally.  She's a firm believer in "treating your body like a temple."

Later in the episode, Roxy bravely shares her story of her battle with breast cancer and how keeping a sense of purpose brought her through.  As a person who rarely asked for help, she realized in her battle who her "tribe" truly was, and the importance of that support system.  She also discusses how she applied the learnings in her battle in helping others going through the same.

In this episode, we examine what our values are, what they could be and how to change any misalignment in them.  We also look into a variety of topics that play into our values, such as posing the question 'What makes you angry?  Why? And where does it stem from?'  Amy also talks about her personal journey and how her move from NY to Florida was important for her.  She also goes a bit more into the relationship with her father and examining what needs healing and how to get there.

In this episode, we discuss the importance of being mindful of listening to what feels right to you rather than what others may think of you or what you're doing.  Don't take what others think of you seriously.  We also talk about good restlessness and the importance of maintaining rhythm and breathe-work in your every day life.

In this episode, we have special guest Danielle Warn.  Danielle, a recent college grad who has been in the workforce gives a view on finding alignment while in her 20s.  She made a big move, releasing a relationship, a living arrangement and a job in quick succession.  Some would call it a crisis, but she calls it finding alignment and happiness.  She speaks on that many that are her age are placing more value on freedom and happiness.  While this was not an easy road, it was a necessary one.  She goes into how women specifically find themselves apologizing and making ones self smaller to make others more comfortable.  She also discusses the importance of her support system in this journey.

In this episode we open up on how we are surrounded by divide in life, financial, political, racial, religious and more.  Upon this, we look at how the idea of divide causes us to get caught up in comparing ourselves to others at any given moment.  We look at the importance of awareness in catching and forgiving ourselves when getting caught in these moments and reinforcing the idea of gratitude and protecting our energy.

In this episode, we look into a book called "The 4 Agreements" and a principle in it that says to 'be impeccable with your word'.  We discuss how important this is in not only how to talk to others, but talk to yourself as well as how you receive words from others.  Many times, words we receive draw from how we heard those words growing up and how we react to them now.  We discuss how through awareness, we can begin to clean up those soundbites in our lives to not have as much a negative effect as they may once have had.
