Good Movement Draws Good Movement

In today's episode, keynote speaker and mindset coach Calli Thorne and I are discussing why mental health first aid should be as common as first aid and CPR - especially in rural life. Calli offers a real look into what this training involves, why it matters, and how it can genuinely change lives. 

If you've ever felt like you're running on empty or wondered how to better support someone who's struggling, I hope our conversation reminds you that you CAN make a difference - it just starts with knowing how!

In this episode, we cover:

• How Calli’s personal journey led her to become a certified mental health first aid trainer
• What you can expect from mental health first aid training
• The often overlooked value of mental health first aid + how it can be used in everyday life
• Learning to recognize what truly fills YOUR cup + how to prioritize yourself accordingly
• Asking, “Why am I feeling this way?” when tough emotions surface
• The variety of industries & communities Calli serves
• The powerful ripple effect this training creates

In today's episode, I'm talking about why you don't need their apology to heal. We crave the apology so deeply because we're HUMAN. We're wired for connection and closure as humans; our hearts want to be seen, known, and heard. 

When we believe that healing is only possible after someone else makes it right, we unknowingly tie our freedom to someone else's readiness or willingness to take responsibility.

It IS possible to let go of this weight that was never yours to carry in the first place. If you need more support on your journey, I would be honored to walk alongside you in Good Movement Collective or 1:1 Good Movement Guidance!

In this episode, I cover:

• Why it’s so human to long for apologies and validation
• What healing without an apology can look & feel like
• How to reclaim your power and begin moving forward (no apology required)

In today's episode, I'm talking about what apologies are and what they're not. Apologies are an act of repair - they don't undo what happened or wipe it all clean, but they CAN mend the fabric of a relationship. 

Receiving apologies can feel foreign, too. You can receive an apology while still honoring your pain and holding boundaries. You don't have to pretend it didn't hurt just to make someone else feel better!

I hope this episode encourages you to reflect on your relationship with apologies (both on the giving AND receiving end). If you need more support in this area, this is the kind of work we do inside the Good Movement Collective and in 1:1 Good Movement Guidance.

In this episode, I cover:

• What true apologies are + how they help to mend connection 
• What apologies are NOT
• Why so many of us struggle to receive apologies + how to practice receiving them with grace
• Naming and grieving the hurt when an apology never comes
• Practical tips for offering a genuine, heartfelt apology

In today's episode, I'm talking about what grace is (and what it's not). We hear "give yourself grace" or "extend grace to others" alllll the time. But grace isn't pretending everything's fine or letting people treat us poorly. It's not stuffing your feelings to keep the peace. 

Real grace tells the TRUTH, holds boundaries, and stays rooted in kindness. It's curiosity without judgment and staying present when it would be easier to shut down. And yes, grace includes you, too!

If this resonates, I'd love for you to check out our new private podcast, The Draw, if you want to go even deeper and learn ways that will help you start to heal in YOUR own way!

In this episode, I cover:

• Why grace is NOT people-pleasing, fake peace, or avoiding hard truths
• Why grace is truth-telling, boundary-holding, and rooted in kindness
• A personal story of extending real grace to Tom during a frustrating moment
• Why grace makes space for connection, healing, and growth instead of shame

**Trigger Warning: This episode was tough for me to record, and it may be tough to listen to. It includes topics of homicide and suicide.

In today's episode, I'm sharing some details about the tragic death of Bailey Koch and her family and talking about the dangerous comfort of judgment and responding to tragedy with humanity. While I get the instinct to say, "I would never," I also know that judgment gives us FALSE comfort and doesn't help us respond with humanity.

This conversation is about way more than one tragic event - it's about the deeper patterns of silence, shame, and isolation in our culture (especially in rural life). If this stirred something up in you, I want you to know that's okay! Let those feelings soften you. You can hold space and ask honest questions. 

In this episode, I cover:

• Why judgment is often our reflex + how it gives us a false sense of control
• What to do when we catch ourselves in that space of quick judgment
• Risks of staying silent and ignoring red flags in ourselves or others
• How we can create safer + more compassionate spaces for those struggling with mental health

In today's episode, I'm talking about why apologies aren't weak - they're repair. I recently apologized to my middle daughter for a moment that happened nearly seven years ago.

It's something that I felt the need to circle back to, especially since we've been talking about the power of showing our kids that we're human.

Apologies aren't weak - taking the time to apologize shows that we care. It's never too late to say "I'm sorry," and it's never too late for our kids to see (and hear) this from us, too!

In this episode, I cover:

• Why I chose to apologize to my daughter recently for something that happened years ago
• How apologies help to rewrite the story & repair damage

In today's episode, I'm talking about raising resilient kids by being real in FRONT of them. When we model how to walk through the tough seasons and come out on the other side, we give our kids the tools they need to do the same!

They don't need a perfect parent; they need a present one who shows them what it looks like to fall, get back up, and keep going. That's the kind of resilience they'll carry with them for life!

In this episode, I cover:

• What happens when you’re always strong and hide your emotions from your kids
• What you can and should let your kids see and hear from you
• How modeling emotional regulation shapes your kids and positively impacts future generations

In today's episode, I'm talking about reflexes, ropes, and rewiring your response. I'm sharing a sweet story about my son, his little sister, and the rope that led to him unintentionally tripping her (she's fine, and they both laughed about it after!) to demonstrate how your nervous system works.

When you've been through hardship, trauma, or even the slow drip of stress, your body just learns how to survive. And when those survival patterns are repeated enough, they become second nature, just like roping.

But you have to stay stuck in those patterns. I invite you to join The Draw, my brand new private podcast that is inner work on YOUR terms, so you can get through hard seasons without burning out or blowing up.

In this episode, I cover:

• An exciting announcement that will allow you to go deeper into your inner work
• A lighthearted story about my son, his ever-present rope & the power of muscle memory
• Why your nervous system leans on old reflexes + how it’s really trying to keep you safe
• The healing that comes when you notice old patterns without shame and begin building new ones rooted in safety, trust & connection

In today's episode, I'm talking about feeling without falling apart and how to start when it feels like too much. Because we've all been taught to push through, stay tough, and avoid being too much, but your emotional system doesn't shut off just because you ignore it. 

Naming your emotions without trying to fix them, noticing body cues, and even using grounding tools like music or journaling all create emotional fences that allow you to feel without drowning. 

Feeling without falling apart IS possible, but it takes time. If you're doing this work, I am so proud of you because this is SUCH a brave step. Healing doesn't happen all at once, but ultimately, it will bring you back home to yourself!

In this episode, I cover:

• What can happen when you try to feel ALL of your feelings at once
• What it means to get stuck in fight, flight, or freeze + how to gently return to rest and digest
• Simple tools to help you safely process emotions one step at a time (without letting them take over)
• The power of going slow and steady as you build emotional resilience and safety
