We often expect ourselves to know our true purpose or mission in life. Yet, for even those who know their genuine calling early on, distractions, expectations, and life necessities can get in the way. But sometimes that deep yearning--a strong knowing in the soul--just can't be ignored. Yet it's not always easy to break out of the mold, listen to your inner voice, and set out on a journey of your own. So today, we're joined by Dr. Victoria Rader,  healer, guide, and spiritual coach, who will help you discover the love, joy, passion, and infinite possibilities that are waiting just for you. They keys to igniting your soul's calling are just a step away!

Topics discussed include love, power, purpose, life's calling, destiny, soul mission, compromise, entropy, self-limiting beliefs, disappointment, expectations, quantum physics, emotional freedom, opportunity, fear, change, potential, expansion, contraction, and self-discovery.

Are you exhausted from over-giving and over-doing? Do you tend to look to others for validation or lean into people-pleasing behaviors? If so, you're in solid company. From childhood forward, many of us learn to tend to others' needs to feel valuable and worthy. And from my experience, these hardwired habits can foster perfectionism, enmeshment, and dependency--and even open the door to being exploited by thoughtless or self-serving people. Yet I've found that small changes over time can foster the awareness and inner strength you need to create healthy habits and set yourself free. Today, we're joined by a fabulous guest who specializes in helping others gain self-worth from within--instead of from others.

Topics discussed include emotional outsourcing, perfectionism, self-care, self-love, habit change, midlife crisis, perimenopause, menopause, life changes, role changes, codependency, red flags, neurolinguistics, GABA, boundaries, marriage, children, parenting, healthy relationships, reciprocity, mutuality, and grief.

Tired of shrinking to fit in? Feeling like a square peg in a round hole? These common issues can make us feel as if we'll never truly belong. We crave inclusion for many reasons. On an evolutionary level, instinct drives us to be part of a pack because we're more likely to survive. And belonging to a group of like-minded people can foster self-esteem while also reducing loneliness and anxiety. Yet, in real life, many people--from childhood forward--struggle with finding or fitting into a group that offers a reassuring sense of inclusion. And this can foster feelings of being unwanted, unworthy, and unloved. So today, we're joined by a highly skilled guest, Dr. JJ Kelly, who has a knack for helping others embrace their lovable inner misfit, grow strong, and shine.

Topics discussed include emotional intelligence, emotions, feelings, DBT, dialectical behavioral therapy, self-love, self-like, inclusion, bullying, outsider, misfit, neurolinguistics, genuine self, authenticity, internal validation, external validation, parenting contracts, consequences, projection, values, pride, self-growth, personal evolution, parenting, children, emotional bullying, unresolved trauma, and transformation.

You may have heard a lot about nervous system regulation and its role in helping you prevent emotional and behavioral chaos while finding inner peace. You may even have tried some tools to reduce stress and create more internal calm but didn't find much lasting relief. In truth, it can take a lot of practice to rewire our bodies and brains in lasting ways, especially when negative patterns have been in play for years or decades. Yet because dysregulation is at the root of many issues from mood disorders to chronic anxiety, any shifts we make for the better can also benefit our partners, children, and families. Today, we're joined by a leading expert, Dr. Roseann Capanna-Hodge, who will guide us on the path of lasting change and healing. Dr. Roseann is a leading expert in emotional and behavioral dysregulation and creator of  e CALMS Dysregulation Protocol and Regulation First Parenting.

Topics discussed include trauma, healing, mental health, anxiety, ADHD, neurotypical, neurodivergent, kinesthetic learning, nervous system, parasympathetic nervous system, autonomic nervous system, breathwork, meditation, parenting, children, family, intergenerational patterns, generational emotional wealth, and positive reinforcement.
