IGNTD

In today’s conversation, you’ll hear a fascinating conversation between Sherry and I on the topics of sex and love addiction, toxic masculinity, her take on the current recovery movement, as well as her tips on how to get started on the road to recovery. And while Sherry and I don’t agree on every side of the recovery equation, I think it’s really important to share different perspectives with you on the podcast and highlight other experts’ take on recovery and mental health

Today’s conversation is really about finding balance, protecting your needs, being self-serving, and focusing on lifting yourself up. Because, when you help yourself first, you help others just by being. When you really understand what being “selfish” means you create an environment that elevates not only you but everyone around you — your friends and family

Today we’re going through clearing space. Right now, in the IGNTD household, we’re super busy with being in the process of buying our first house. As exciting as it is, I had no idea what kinds of challenges it would bring along! And here’s the thing about life: we’re constantly recycling and re-figuring out what we have to do to keep our head up above the water. So today, I want to talk with you about how to clear out space in your life!

Today’s episode perfectly encompasses this month’s theme of framily (friends plus family). Our conversation really focuses on the gut, our microbiome, and how we not only impact our health and immune system but our friends and family — the people we surround ourselves with every day — do as well

In this episode, we’re talking all about self-doubt. For most of my life, I’ve been saddled with self-doubt. There was always this voice in the back of my head making sure I knew I wasn’t enough in whatever I was doing. For years, it played as constant noise in the background of my life

In this first episode of the month, we’re speaking with Garrain Jones! Garrain is a Transformation Coach, speaker, and soon-to-be-author who travels around the world to share his inspirational story. His motto, “Change your mindset, change your life,” not only drives his life and career every day, but it was the initial inspiration that drove his own transformation from living out of his car to the now successful entrepreneur he is today

Today we’re continuing the conversation about toxic masculinity from a few weeks back with the episode, “Changing Our Perspective of Masculinity.”

Today’s our ‘Going Deep’ end-of-the-month summary episode! ‘Adventure’ was the topic of this month so we definitely urge you to go and listen to the past three episodes if you haven’t already, before coming back to this one. Today we’ll be reflecting on this month’s theme of adventure, what it all means, all of the different ways you can become more adventurous in your own life, and how to choose adventure — and ultimately, choose joy.

I had a pretty good childhood — my parents stayed together, we went on a lot of family vacations, and we had birthday celebrations. But, it was also not entirely perfect — my parents fought a lot when I was younger, my dad was almost always gone, and there was cheating. And now, as a parent, I worry about the sort of impression I’m leaving on my own children and how it may affect them in the future.

This week’s episode is a powerful one! We’re talking all about pain, trauma, and coming out on the other side of it all. It’s so vitally important to learn how to transform your pain into your power and not let it rule your life
