Attachment Disorder Expert Paula Sacks: Insecure vs. Secure Attachment Styles, Tinder Shark-Pool Dating Rules & How To Build Self-Esteem

    more places

“A man is a blow torch, a woman is like an oven.” Most people want to lead a happy life and share it with a partner they love. That sounds simple enough, but for many people, it does not work out so simply. They may have attachment disturbances they are unaware of and repeat patterns unconsciously, asking themselves why they are still single but never getting to the root cause. In the digital era that we live in, dating has been transformed into something resembling a numbers game, or what my guest today Paula calls a shark pool. Many people, especially women, struggle to find and keep the right man at the right time, especially if they are hoping to have both a career and children.

Paula Sacks is an expert in adult attachment disorders and is a licensed and clinically trained social worker, with advanced training thru Harvard Medical School.  She offers psychotherapy and hypnotherapy for grief, anxiety & adjustment disorders, peak performance and phobias. She is one of the authors of the 2016 book “Attachment Disturbances in Adults: Treatment for Comprehensive Repair” along with Dr. Daniel P. Brown, Dr. David S. Elliot and a team of therapists. You can read more about her on her website paulasackslicsw.com.

Today Paula is going to tell us about attachment styles and why they matter, explain the rules of online dating to keep women and men safe from predators and people who say one thing and do another, discuss anxious and avoidant dating style combinations as well as teach us how to build self-esteem and how to become secure.

Legend of Shane McManus: From Irish Defence Forces Marksman to Sommelier, to Soho House Berlin Bar Manager to Irish Folk Musician & Romantic Boyfriend

 more places

“The only thing better than an Irish wedding is an Irish funeral.” Without struggles in life, there would be no stories worth telling. Just as everyone has a unique fingerprint created within certain parameters, everyone has a unique life story created within certain parameters. Today we are going to look at the lifestory of Shane McManus, covering the happiness and struggles, the tragedy, the triumph, his great love and life lessons. Shane would never brag about his accomplishments, which is part of why we wanted to interview him.

When you think of army veterans, you think of an older and potentially disabled man or you picture someone who looks like they would kill you if you say the wrong thing. By all appearances, Shane looks and talks like a normal healthy man when you meet him. But, Shane is no ordinary man.

He was born in Strabane, Ireland. He has been the Senior bartender at Soho House for 4 years now, and prior to that was the general manager at two different companies while becoming a sommelier. He spent six years working in the Irish Defence Forces, being deployed to a variety of countries in Africa including Chad where he worked as a marksman on deployments. He plays a variety of musical instruments including guitar, drums and trumpet and he sings.

Shane is going to talk to us about his boyhood in Ireland, his experiences as a sommelier and bar manager, his favourite drink, the meaning of music in his life, his time in the Irish Defence Forces where he will tell us the the stories he is legally allowed to share, alongside defence tips for women, and finally tell us about working at Soho House and the story about how he met the love of his life. Not to mention, is going to play to songs for us as host Caitlin Arnould interviews him in-depth.

Health Author Dr. Josef Arnould: Build an Army of Good Gut Bacteria, Greens Instead of Grains & Exercise to Prevent Entropy

   more places

“If you don’t have good gut health, then you don’t have good health.” Dr. Arnould is a chiropractor and the author of American Diet Revolution and has helped thousands of people improve their health and today he is sharing his advice with us.

The link between a healthy body and a healthy mind is something that has been studied and proven for years now. What many people do not fully comprehend is just how much exercise affects the health of both your mind and spirit and the way entropy sets in without physical activity. “What’s going on in your mind is inextricably bound up with what’s going on in your body. We should be eating greens instead of grains.”

The state of your stomach bacteria can prevent or cause disease and affect even your brain. Bacteria in your stomach can send signals to the brain through the tenth cranial nerve. Unhealthy bacteria can wreak havoc and cause, for instance leaky gut syndrome and ulcers. Some people call the gut the second brain. These connections correlate to your feelings and the choices you make, and ultimately affect your quality of life on many levels. “Good health is a form of independence.”

Dr. Arnould has been working on this exercise-mind-spirit relationship as well as researching gut and brain health for over 40 years now.  He comes from Iowa and studied English at Princeton University and then at Framingham State University, before returning to Iowa to get his doctorate at Palmer College of Chiropractic. He then moved to Massachusetts and opened his first clinic there in 1983, where he still lives and runs his chiropractic practice and strength training/rehabilitation centre. 

Other topics covered include: What the lungs of a 30-year smoker taught him about the possibilities for life extension, how he can feel physical weakness and ageing develop over the years in patients, the link between lower back pain and depression, his diet and workout routine, why the humble sauerkraut is so important and the dangers of letting bad bacteria take over.

Dr. Arnould is also the father of host Caitlin Arnould, who performs the interview.

 Food Coach Natürlich Nadine Hüttenrauch: Integrating Mindfulness & Non-Judgement to Improve Quality of Life & Individual Nutrition

   more places

“Eating is a necessity, but enjoying food is an art.” How much time does the average person spend each day unconsciously going through the motions and eating without really experiencing what they eat? Natürlich Nadine sat down with us today to explain how mindful eating changes not just our culinary experiences but our entire state of being.

Human beings have more things in common with one another than differences, which it can be easy to forget. One of the things that all humans have in common is that we need to eat. And yet, we do not have the same nutritional and dietary needs. In order to understand what our body actually needs, we need to listen to it and we can listen to it by becoming mindful and conscious and investigating what, how and why we eat.

Nadine is a business, food & health coach specialising in mindful eating, she is also an editor of the German magazine Bild der Frau. Please take a look at her photo. Never trust a nutritionist who does not look healthy, and she looks amazing.  She is based in Berlin and her coaching encompasses a three-step model: Nutrition, relaxation & fulfilment. She worked in business consultancy and project management for 7 years before relaunching her career as a certified Health, Nutrition and Life Counselor as well as Business Trainer with continued studies in Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction. She offers individual coaching as well as workshops, seminars and lectures. She goes by Natuerlich Nadine and natuerlich, by the way, means naturally or of course in English.

Today with the help of Nadine, we will investigate how conscious and mindful eating can impact our lives. Nadine is going to talk about effectively integrating mindfulness and individual nutrition into everyday living for optimal health and simple steps to make it happen for anyone. Topics include: advice for period cravings, what Nadine eats, and why she still enjoys her grandmother’s cake.

Germany’s Top Chinese Journalist Qian Sun: Collectivism vs individualism, FIFA and the wisdom of the goat & Eckhart Tolle

   more places

China is a country with a storied history fascinating to the rest of the world. With a population of more than 1.3 billion people, over 18% of people in the world are Chinese at this moment in time, with Mandarin being the most spoken language in the world. There are thousands of characters used in writing Chinese and the history of the people spans thousands of years and dozens of dynasties.

While we could spend a year discussing the history of the country, today we are going to focus on modern China and media and specifically on a woman who has become China’s most important journalist in Germany.

Qian Sun was born in Taiyun in 1988 and has spent the last 9 years living in Germany where she now lives. She studied sports journalism in Beijing and did a Masters in global studies in Leipzig and has been working in media for the last six years, reporting all over the globe. She can film, edit, present – she can do it all. She currently works as the German correspondent for Phoenix TV and most recently worked for FIFA Women’s World Cup covering the Chinese national team.

We have a few topics we want to cover with her today. What was it like to get chosen to work for FIFA? How did it feel to transition from a collectivistic to an individualistic society and which does she like better? How is dating in Germany vs China? What have both a goat and Eckhart Tolle taught her about life? Host Caitlin Arnould is going to take you on a journey to find out now.

The transcontinental search for meaning: how food, mental health and self-expression shape Karishma’s journey

  more places

They say that, that which you search for may never be found. Yet on the other hand, if you do not figure out what you want and go after it, you will probably never get it.

Karishma Daswani has performed a search for meaning on four different continents to date in her 33 years of life. Being of Indian heritage, she has lived in Nigeria, the UAE, Canada, the UK, Spain and Germany. She has a Master’s in Business and a Master’s in Public Health and founded a natural foods company.

While living in Berlin, she became involved in various aspects of mental health including talk and somatic therapy, cold therapy, positive versus negative thinking, sound healing and meditation. She also realized her true passion was art and how powerful self-expression is to the development and health of the self. She even healed a serious bladder condition through healing her emotional health.

Because Karishma has such a unique background and has been involved with so many aspects of health, I am interviewing her in order to understand: what has this transcontinental journey taught her about the meaning of life? What do food, mental health and self-expression have to do with it and how do they relate to one another? How did healing her emotional health heal her bladder when nothing else would? In her search for meaning, what she found?
