Holistic Healing Podcast

On today's episode we're discussing attachment theory and how that plays into our relationship and communication styles. Thomas Westenholz is an author, couples therapist specializing in attachment theory, and facilitator in psychedelics, breathwork, and ecstatic dance. With a rich background in enhancing mental health and relationships through these diverse modalities.

More about Thomas:

My own story with attachment and psychedelics started with my son's remarkable journey, which defies the odds and embodies resilience. Born with a life-limiting condition, his survival spurred a quest for innovative solutions. Through pioneering research and unwavering determination, we challenged medical norms, ultimately saving his life. His story is a testament to the power of perseverance and the boundless potential of human innovation.

My expertise bridges the gap between traditional therapy and alternative healing practices, focusing on how psychedelics can play a transformative role in personal growth and relationship dynamics.

On today's episode, we had the pleasure of talking to Mickias (Mickey) Solomon about the dynamics of adapting to life in Ethiopia and American as well as what it takes to climb the corporate ladder. As a young kid, Mickey moved to Ethiopia and had to adjust to a new environment and language. Later on in his life, he had to integrate back into America. Life in Ethiopia and America differ significantly, as Mickey emphasizes in the episode. Everything from etiquette to the way the financial system is set up. This can be challenging for most people but what I find interesting is how Mickey was able to harness the best of both worlds to help him advance in the financial industry. 

Mickias Solomon is a Vice President within the Finance & Business Management line of business at JP Morgan Chase & Co. Prior to his current role, he worked in Global Transaction Banking Strategy & Business Management as well as Transaction Banking Sales at MUFG Union Bank. One of the things he pointed out in the podcast was the importance of networking and how that helped him transition from service industry to finance and banking. 

Mickey also has a passion for FinTech so we touched on a few emerging technologies like blockchain and integration of that in finance.

On today's episode of American gypC Podcast, we're discussing radical self-care, Cryotherapy, and new year goals. As you know we love talking about health and wellness on this Podcast and New Years is usually a universal queue to do a status check on your goals and general well-being. 

Radical self-care goes beyond just physical health and includes emotional, mental, and spiritual well-being. It is a form of self-care that prioritizes taking proactive steps to maintain one's overall well-being and happiness.

It involves setting personal boundaries, saying "no" to things that do not serve you, and taking time for self-reflection and self-discovery. It can include practices such as meditation, exercise, healthy eating, spending time in nature, pursuing hobbies and interests, and seeking help from professionals when needed.

The idea behind radical self-care is to create a healthy balance between one's physical, emotional, and mental needs, and to prioritize self-care as a means of preventing burnout, reducing stress, and improving overall health and happiness. By taking a proactive approach to self-care, we can cultivate resilience, strengthen our relationships with others, and lead a more fulfilling life.

As a form of radical self-care this month, our co-host Merc had a chance to try cryotherapy, which she describes in the podcast. Cryotherapy is a form of alternative therapy that involves exposing the body to extremely low temperatures, typically in a specialized chamber. The temperature in the chamber is usually maintained between -120°C and -180°C. It's often marketed as a way to reduce pain and inflammation, speed up recovery from injury, improve skin conditions, and boost energy levels and mood. Some athletes and fitness enthusiasts use cryotherapy as a way to enhance their performance, reduce muscle soreness, and improve recovery time after workouts.

Everyone's needs and definitions of self-care are different, the key is to identify what you need, listen to your body and emotions, and make self-care a regular part of your routine. Tell us what your idea of self-care is in the comment!
