Hope to Recharge

Today we are focusing on the power of  positive mindset and how it can influence our lives as career women, mothers, and as human beings. Together with my guest, we dig into topics such as how to juggle life, know who you are, tune in to your needs, grant yourself the gift of authenticity, and choose what is right. The energy and positivity of this episode are exciting! If you are female, this episode is especially for you!

Our guest is Olya Hill, founder of Living Notes. Olya is a former dancer, now a creative director, and the mother of seven children. She is a beautiful soul that believes in energy and positive mindset. She believes in womens’ empowerment, choosing ourselves as humans, being authentic and evolving with life.

Olya takes us through her journey as a young dancer. Having an Eastern European background and moving to the United States at just 18 years old, she retells how her grandmother had a profound influence on her choices, especially to have a large family. She tells us about the struggles of being a mother and a dancer at the same time. The expectation from her own society and the world of dance, is to show up, no matter what the excuse may be, or someone else will take your job. There is no empathy towards being a mother, especially for women artists. The most frequent attack that she had to face in her line of work was, “You were the one who chose to have the kids, so either go and be a mom or be a professional”, which is an incredibly cruel expectation. 

Dance, meditation, and mindfulness saved Olya during complicated pregnancies and after suffering postpartum depression. She firmly believes that being a grounded person and having a healthy balance in life are ingredients to becoming a good parent. Life as a mother and a professional can often be challenging, but we hope that our discussion helps you to discover what is right for  you.. 

As Olya shared with us today, being our true selves and giving ourselves the freedom to come back to what is truly important to us are essential to success. If you need help in this process of finding what matters and defines you as a person, please connect with us in our private Facebook group, Hope to Recharge, and if you need more personal support, make sure you book your free call with Matana.

• “Being you, the true you that you know you are, that is the most important thing” @OlyaHill @MatanaJacobs #HopetoRecharge

In our continuing series of mental health in the workplace / entrepreneurship, we meet Natalie Bacon, who pivoted from being a practicing business Attorney, to starting and authoring a blog, to becoming a certified financial planner and finally transitioning to become trained as a full time life coach.

She shares her struggles and trauma from growing up with an alcoholic dad whose life revolved around DWI's, being in & out of jail, and his financial consequences, and the trauma of having recently lost her dad with whom she rebuilt her relationship.

Often, anxiety, panic and fear of the unknown hold us back when making big decisions, but it is crucial to find self love as the first step to improving our lives and goals. Feeling good when facing obstacles help us to remove the boundaries that we may unwittingly impose on ourselves. Nathalie gives us tremendous tips, techniques and tools to mindset improvement, such as accepting what is, instead of rejecting it, using your brain to bend your current beliefs and finding the upside of the natural human tendency to gravitate to a negative mindset and instead find meaning to our obstacles and accomplish positive change.

Matana shares her own real life scenarios of how goal setting and a life coach can help us achieve our desired outcomes when its hard to take that first step and how to identify and plan in advance, for events that challenge us, in order to help us make decisions in those moments and substitute things that challenge our goals with goal enhancing behaviors.

All this month, we will be digging into the topic of mental health in the workplace. I get asked all the time about how we can deal with the ups and downs of work while navigating our own personal lives and what we can do to balance all life’s demands while staying mentally healthy.

We are kicking off this conversation by speaking with online entrepreneur and speaker, Maley Jaxx, who in just a few short years transitioned from her career to being in the public eye with her very popular brand and online presence. During all of this professional change, she was also experiencing a very difficult time in her personal life as her marriage was coming to an end.

Marley generously walks us through this season of her life where she had to focus on her business all while grieving the loss of a marriage. She shares with us about the decisions she has continually made to protect her mental health and her dedication to her vision despite the difficulty of walking through so many emotions.

Sometimes life hits us HARD when we least expect it. We hope that these conversations encourage you to stay mentally strong and prepared emotionally to walk through crises in the best way possible.

As Marley shares with us today, community is such an important element to our mental health, if you need a community who will stand beside you during the difficult times, please connect with us in our private Facebook group, Hope to Recharge, and if you need more personal support make sure you book your free call with Matana. Because as always, together is better.

We continue the second part of our episode with Aliza Bulow, whose son Dani, died by suicide. Due to his diagnosed extreme depression and bipolar, Dani's constant mantra since the age of 5 was that he did not want to live or be alive. As a loving parent walking on tiptoes, Aliza was constantly petrified of the day Dani would take his own life. She shares with us the intimate thoughts only a mother could, with extreme respect, love and fear of her son's wishes and the truth of how he didn't want to kill himself, he just didn't want to be alive.

Aliza discusses her inner torment and constant worry as well as the sad feelings of relief and unintentional strange comfort in the wake of his death,  that the worries of hearing a bump in the night are no longer a reason to leap out of bed and fully aware that she "didn't give him permission but he got his wish". She came to realize that he died of his illness, planning out his death and respectfully asking his mother her preferred method, as he respected her wishes. 

This powerful episode opens the discussion of how not to be afraid to engage in hyper sensitive material. How to discuss suicide without giving permission but understanding the illness. It takes greatness and a healthy frame of mind to recognize that this was not her fault , she did nothing wrong, she was not a bad mother, they were simply nothing that she could do.

We also learn how parents can grow closer together despite having faced such a tragedy, and not also lose their marriage.

We are joined in this first of two episodes, with Aliza Bulow to talk about suicide awareness. Aliza shares the story of her young son, Doni, who was determined to accomplish his lifelong request of dying by suicide. She gives us insight from a parent that lives with someone with depression and a desire for death by suicide.

Doni was the sixth child of Aliza and her husband and was a charming little boy. From the young age of five he began to articulate that he "did not want to be on this world". Due to his extreme mental pain, he considered different forms of death and continued to express this goal throughout his young childhood years.  As a teen, he was good looking, smart and had lots of friends and a supportive family. He was a creative thinker, young computer innovator and budding genius, and had a passion for coding for Firefox. He was not disobedient or disruptive, but simply played by his own rules.

Aliza had other children with learning challenges, attention issues, sensory issues, and sleep issues, but nothing was helpful in diagnosing Doni’s symptoms. "He was a mystery, wrapped in an enigma, surrounded by a question mark all the time". He was diagnosed with extreme depression and bipolar at a young age which prevented any normal functioning and age-appropriate learning. 

Aliza and her husband tried everything they could do to treat Doni’s diagnosis. Going to psychologists and psychiatrists, having Doni live with his Grandma in a remote forest and even transferred Doni to a school with children having different learning styles didn't change the fact that Doni’s death was expected.

Aliza came to accept and recognize that Doni was mentally terminally ill, which allowed her to reduce her constant overpowering and crippling worrying and be able to continue to function for the rest of the family and also be available for Doni as best she could. 

Sometimes we forget to talk about how hard it is to be a loved one to somebody that is struggling so hard, and we simply may not be able to understand their mind. We might try to help and prevent them from injuring or killing themselves, but we may not be able to actually understand how to comfort them.

These topics are so important for us to be able to support the ones in our life that are going through this journey of suicide thoughts and conversations, suicide attempts, and actual death by suicide.

This week we are revisiting an old episode from last year because I find this interview to be so powerful that I wanted to bring it back to all of you. I had the special honor of connecting with Anne Moss, a mother, author, and founder of  Emotionally Naked, a blog dedicated to her late son Charles Aubrey Rogers, who lost his life to suicide.

In this vulnerable interview, Anne recounts the last few years of her son’s life and shares openly with us about his mental health and drug addiction struggles that ultimately lead to his death by suicide. Anne graciously talks about the vivid facts that many of us shy away from, including the stigma that families face when in crisis to mental health, and the lack of support when dealing with drug addiction. 

Anne’s book Diary of a Broken Mind, comes out in October of this year, and we will have her on again to share more tips and resources to those who have a loved one who is struggling or a loved one they have lost. But first, we wanted to shares Charles’s story and let you know that whether you are struggling yourself or if you have a loved one who is, you are not alone. We will break the stigma, one story at a time, and as always, together is better.

If you or someone you know is struggling with suicidal thoughts please connect with someone. You are not alone.

Understanding the Power of Words, Thoughts, and Selfbeliefs (Adam Moen)

We are halfway through September, and continue to contribute to suicide awareness. Over the past two weeks, we’ve had incredible guests and today’s episode is no exception. We discussed suicide with Adam Moen in an interview where he shares his personal experience with suicidal thoughts.

Adam is a healthcare consultant during the day and a mental health advocate on nights and weekends. He has various speaking engagements in the Minneapolis, MN area, speaks to high school students and faculty, church parishioners and other groups, and also leads a peer support group through NAMI MN. He is also the founder of Avalo, a new app that allows people to share their feelings and thoughts anonymously, and ease the process of finding professional help.

In this episode, we’ll learn how the things that we tell ourselves can model our thoughts and behavior and how important this is to overcome mental illness. I hope you enjoy this episode and share it with other people. Remember that you can join our private Facebook group, Hope to Recharge, and share your comments with us. Because, as always, together is better!

We continue our focus during suicide awareness month with this fantastic interview. There are so many people holding back their emotions, thoughts, and secrets about themselves, and, as we’ll discover later in this episode, having someone to talk about your struggles and secrets is an excellent way to start healing your mind.

26 year old Tali Wallin works for Israel’s national ambulance service, Magen David Adom as an EMT and EMS dispatcher. She enjoys working in the medical field and gets satisfaction from helping others.

Tali decided to expand her knowledge and go to nursing school. She is now in her last semester and looking forward to graduating and overcoming all the struggles in her path.

In this episode, Tali tells us about her life and living with her Social Anxiety and Borderline Personality Disorder diagnosis. She discusses how she has learned to control self-harm and other negative thoughts. I encourage you to share this episode with anyone you think might benefit from Talli’s experience. If you find this interview interesting or helpful reach out to our private Facebook group, Hope to Recharge, and share your story with us.

Because, as always, together is better!

I can’t believe another month has gone, and I am so grateful for all the stories shared the last two months, where we learned so much about managing loss and grief. This month will be dedicated to discussing suicide awareness, and I’m so happy to have the first guest to discuss this topic, Marni Ratner.

Marni Ratner lost her husband to suicide in 2009 and suddenly became the breadwinner for her two children ages 3 and 7 at the time. Through early grief counseling and a large network of extended family and friends, her kids are now thriving young adult with her oldest recently going off to college. Eleven years after her husband’s death, Marni finds strength in mentoring new widows and is also a strong proponent of suicide prevention.

Marni has been active in several widow support groups, some formal organizations, and others more casual. The most memorable being as a founding member of a local group called 180 Your Life, which is more experience-focused and strives to embrace exercise and a healthy lifestyle. Their first event was training for the Athleta Irongirl Sprint Triathlon. Their team of young widows was sponsored by Athleta, who even outfitted the team with custom uniforms.

In this episode, Marni will share her thoughts on suicide after 11 years of reflection. I hope you find this conversation inspiring and motivates you to break the stigma about suicide. If you have any additional comments or ideas and want to share them reach our private Facebook group, Hope to Recharge. Because, as always, together is better!

Grief does not always have to be about death. Sometimes you grieve during transitions. Saying goodbye no matter if it is the passing of a person you loved, saying goodbye to an old job, or even making a change in your business, there are many levels and ways to grieve.

Today I am joined by Heather Parady, my previous podcast producer to discuss transitions and ways that we can reframe change. Saying goodbye and moving on is not saying things will be the same, but we can choose to see how we can grow in transitions and simply acknowledge that although things will be different,  different is not always bad. 

We also dig into the energetic and mindset side of saying goodbye. It may be easier doing the same things that we are used to doing, however with the unknown there can also be tremendous growth and blessings. So instead of avoiding change, sometimes we need to embrace it. 

If you need support in your transitions please find us in our private Facebook group, Hope to Recharge. We also offer free 30-minute coaching calls to new potential clients if you would like to explore how we could support you. As always, together is better!
