Eric sat in the aircraft, his sweaty hands gripping the seat rests, his breathing accelerating and his whole being dreading the rest of the flight. As turbulence hit the airplane he had a panic attack. It was not his first one - flying phobia had been his companion for many years. Yet this time, Eric Goodman, a clinical psychologist specialized in treating anxiety disorders, decided to follow his own advice.

He stopped leaning into the tempting suggestions given by his anxious mind and did exactly the opposite, eventually overcoming his flying phobia. He let go of controlling or avoiding the feeling, and let it be.

Anxiety has been a survival mechanism for humans throughout history, yet modern society has seen a rise in anxiety about experiencing anxiety itself.

In this highly interesting conversation, Eric Goodman, Ph.D lecturer at Calpol State University, will shed much light on what anxiety really is and on why only two types of people never have anxiety: psychopaths and dead people.

In the end we hope you will agree that demonizing anxiety cause more problems than it solves, and with self compassion coupled with exposure therapy we can minimize it and live a normal life.

In this episode, we explore the common yet often overlooked challenge women face: losing themselves in the pursuit of love and belonging. We'll delve into the subtle ways societal expectations and personal choices can lead to a diminished sense of self. This is not to say that we should not pursue having a family and children: quite the contrary - they are fundamental; however, in many cultures, particularly macho cultures, the woman is expected to submit to the man and totally forget about her free time, interests and passions.

She will even feel guilty for taking a day off or not being busy serving others 24/7…sounds familiar?

Our guest, best selling author Alicia Rodriguez, shares her personal journey of self-discovery and the steps she took to reclaim her power and purpose.

Her new book, 'The shaman's wife' has a message: love is boundless, but it must begin with nurturing oneself.

You will hear her story of how she married a powerful Shaman and then realized that she had surrendered her power and agency to him, eventually moving on to reclaim her true purpose and identity. Alicia wants to help those who are in a similar situation.

Together, we'll uncover the signs of losing your identity, discuss the impact on your relationships, and provide actionable strategies to prioritize self-care without feeling guilty. Whether you're a stay-at-home mom, a career woman, or somewhere in between, this episode offers invaluable insights and inspiration to help you create a life that fulfills both your personal and family-related aspirations.

Tune in to discover:

• How to identify if you've lost touch with your true self
• Practical tips for setting boundaries and saying no
• The importance of self-care in creating a fulfilling life
• Strategies for balancing your personal and familial roles

Even the commandments contained in the Bible, for those who believe in them, ask to 'love your neighbour as you love yourself' - so self love comes first and it comes with respect and nourishing our own interests too. Let's redefine what it means to be a strong, confident woman who prioritizes both love and self.

When a woman is happy and able to follow her own interests (depending on which seasons of life she is experiencing) everything will be smoother at home.
