Something most of us are seeking more of in life is happiness. How do we get there? Is it the work we do, goals we achieve, a destination to travel to? How do we become happy? According to our guest today it all begins with a single mind shift, and he’s here to give it to us. We are joined by Alain Emmanuel, LPC, The Happiness Coach.

Take a scroll down any platform and you’ll get a taste of what we are talking about today. The rise of the Misogynistic thought leader. Harrison Butker is a prime example. Randi and Angelica are joined by Ryan, a man’s man who is proud to support the independence and passions of his female partner. Ryan shares his insight on why there is a rise of this dangerous, female disempowering messaging, and how he has come to realize that manly men should be doing the opposite.

Projection, denial, rationalization, do these sound like how your ex used to argue with you? Well it's not just narcissists who have these tools in their kit. We all do them. These are our defense mechanisms. Randi walks Angelica through what they are, why they exist and surprisingly how some are there to help us live a healthier life.

If you’re listening to this pod, you’re most likely on your own journey of healing and self growth. There’s no denying the path is hard, sometimes dark and surely lonely. Randi and Angelica talk through how to navigate relationships through your healing journey and tools that have worked for them in navigating the darker moments.

Ok, ok, we admit it, we got a little "ADHD" on the last episode. Now we're back with Magnet Program Coordinator, Writer, Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse, Brynne Delaney Calleran, to bring it back to the basics. We're talking what ADHD is really, how it appears differently based on gender and nurture, and how to advocate for yourself if you suspect you have it.

Magnet Program Coordinator, Writer, Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse, Brynne Delaney Calleran, joins Randi and Angelica to talk about ADHD and the gender discrepancy when seeking diagnosis. Through sharing her personal journey, not being diagnosed until her 30s, Brynn highlights the misunderstanding of what ADHD looks like and the different ways it generally shows up in males and females. Brynne is such a wealth of knowledge on the subject that this is part one of two on ADHD and women. Part two will be released next week.

Inner Child work has come up a lot in every episode. This popular therapeutic tool allows us to get to the root of our trauma wounds. Randi walks Angelica through what exactly it is and how to utilize it in order to live in joy.

Self deprecation, we've all done it, and as women we use it to connect and create community. Unfortunately, it can become a self-fulfilling prophecy. Randi and Angelica discuss the commonly used social tool and ways we can dismantle it in order to transform our lives.

Randi and Angelica are joined by therapist Jamie Klein, who specializes in helping women with chronic illness navigate life. Whether it’s Lupus, endometriosis, fibromyalgia, having a chronic illness can be a daunting life sentence. Jamie helps reshape and restore our minds around it.
