Hey podcast friends!

In this freeform episode, I share some intimate details of my own personal journey. It has been hard to heal and still show up each day. I recognize I am serving my purpose. This motivates me to keep showing up no matter how difficult it can be. Self-sabotage is sneaky and conniving. It will wait to show up just when things finally feel like they are improving. It will try to take you down. It is important to remember that it isn’t about making it go away. It is about noticing it and not allowing it to take over. You are allowed to feel joy and happiness. You are allowed to be content without a problem. Life is on going. There will always be challenges, hardships and pain. We deserve to feel contentment and joy when life is actually okay.

High functioning anxiety 

Do you ever feel friends with anxiety? 

Sometimes anxiety drives us to focus, be on time, prepare for a big presentation or have order in our day. Yet, we wonder why do we have it all together but your heart is racing, thoughts are scattered and you forgot to pay a bill again. Its because high functioning anxiety serves a purpose but it can also become kryptonite. 

It does seem like we have a name for everything these days. It helps us understand ourselves better and label it. I know it has helped me but I can also get stuck in the label of it. This can be dangerous because we are not defined by our anxiety. We live with it. We are NOT it. 

In this episode, I review the symptoms and functions of high functioning anxiety. I have listed below some of the most common symptoms. I also talk about the fawn and freeze response of the nervous system which better helps us understand why it can be difficult to regulate our bodies. 

Symptoms: 

Overachiever 

Planner

Doer

Overthinking or analyzing 

Fear of failure or striving for perfectionism

Nervous habits

Dwelling on past experiences

Hey podcast friends!

This week I start by talking about how things are never in perfect balance. We often are focused on an area of our life and we go all in. I am also diving into family roles. This comes from family roles theory in addiction. We take on roles based on our personalities and environment. If there was a family member who had the spotlight such as mental illness, addiction, behavior or anything else then you likely fell into a role that protected you during that time. The roles are:

1. Addict/Victim

2.Scapegoat

3. Hero

4. Lost child

5.Enabler

The important thing to remember is that you do not have to live in this role. You get to choose how you want to change that. You can challenge family values and beliefs to create your own but that doesn't come naturally. As human being, we innately want to be accepted by our families. If we are challenging our beliefs than it can feel like we are betraying our family.

Hey listeners!

This week I am speaking with dr. Menajie Turner. She is located in LA, CA. She is a mother of a six year old daughter, runs a thriving group practice and is recovering perfectionism. Throughout her own personal journey, she realized many others were struggling with the same thing. She focuses on helping other recover from their perfectionism to live a wholesome life that doesn't feel filled with so much anxiety. I know perfectionism is one area I am always working on because I can see how it directly impacts those around me. We don't have to perfect it  (pun intended) but we can practice not allowing it to interfere with our life and understanding its source. Listen for tidbits that can help you begin to let go of being perfect and just be you.

Hey everyone! 

This week I am speaking with Hunter Clark-Fields. I am a long time fan of Hunter and her podcast. I came across her content when I felt defeated with my own parenting approach and struggles with my child. Hunter is the author of raising good humans. Her goal is to change generational patterns through mindfulness parenting techniques. She has many tools to help decrease yelling by increasing your connection with your kiddos. Hunter and I talk about how the pressures from society influence parents but mothers more specifically. We often think she should do it all which doesn't leave much room for us to be present and in-tune with our kiddos. Listen to the entire interview so helpful tips if this is an area that you are wanting to explore.

Hey friend!

First, I discuss how compartmentalizing can be helpful and hurtful. I understand that it can be difficult to open up Pandora's box but I am challenging you to look at why you are avoiding it. I talk about different things that can be helpful while navigating this thing called life. Compartmentalizing is a trauma response and survival technique we use to protect ourselves when things feel overwhelming. There are times when we have the capacity to process and other times we do not.  I am also tackling the topic of how we “should” all over ourselves. How often do you put high expectations on yourself with “shoulds”. Maybe to go to the gym? To clean the house? To get a project done? To write that paper? It is important to understand the impact that “shoulding” will have on your internal environment. Stay tuned for the entire episode for helpful tips.

Hey friends!

Today on the show, I am talking about a topic that I continue to learn about but that is also near to the heart. I discuss the following:

The poly vagal theory talks all about nervous system regulation. It explores how our thoughts influence our healing. If we have limiting beliefs such as “I can't do this”,  “Good things never happen for me”, “I will never be that successful” “I will never walk again” “I live in constant pain” ect then these thoughts re-enforce that pathway making it stronger.

In order to heal the body, you must recognize and release it.
