This week, we had our special guest and friend, JF Benoist. He is the author of Addicted to the Monkey Mind: Change the Programming That Sabotages Your Life. This was an enlightening conversation about how the stories we tell ourselves can really influence outcomes. To illustrate this, JF shared some of his own experiences, and Bill used the example of some issues that his 14 year old son is dealing with. JF offered some great ideas about how Bill could be most supportive to his son.  JF is truly an amazing, and informative guest. We strongly recommend reading his easy to follow book. You can contact him and also purchase his book through the links listed below.  J.F.

JF Benoist Addicted to the Monkey Mind

Welcome, to the Get Focused Podcast…Hosted by, Bill K. & Gina Faye Marriage & Family Therapist,  LMFT, IDHP

Bill started his journey over 20 years ago, taking on life’s toughest challenges head on. After serving in the military, Bill made it his mission to conquer professional sales, and now he’s helping individuals & companies blow past their obstacles, embrace insight, wisdom & inspiration, and create strength, purpose & motivation in everything you do. 

It has been Gina’s experience that an important component of successful therapy is the therapeutic relationship that gets formed. She enjoys working with most people and finds that she is most effective to the extent that a safe and trusting space can be created where her clients are able to communicate whatever they need to without fear of judgement. She has also found that she is not able to be of any help at all, unless her client is invested in their healing process, willing to do the work that's involved, and is not looking for their therapist to tell them what to do.

She particularly enjoys the challenge of working with couples. She makes it a point of treating the couple, not either of the individuals involved. She does not take sides, but rather tries to help each person see and understand the other's perspective.

In this podcast you will experience and learn from people from all different walks of life. The stories and experiences that we have all faced or will face and how to overcome your fears and Get Focused.

EPISODE 108 GET FOCUSED WITH SPECIAL GUEST JONATHAN TURNER

EPISODE 106: BDSM WITH MARGAUX UNDERWOOD

EPISODE 105: GET INVOLVED WITH MENS GROUPS

In this episode, we had the pleasure of speaking with our guest, Liz Murdoch, who is an animal communicator with many years of experience. She helps people all over the world get a deeper understanding of what their pets needs are, and what those pets would like their owners to know. This covers many areas of pet care, including behaviors, medical issues, and end of life care choices. Liz tells us what took her down this path, and how she decided to follow her heart in spite of misgivings along the way. She also had a brief conversation with Gina’s cat which was fun. On the day we recorded this Liz’s new book also went live on Amazon. If you’d like to contact this fascinating person, we are including several links.

Episode 104: Talking with Dogs, Liz Murdoch Animal Communicator

In this episode, Bill checks in with Gina on her thoughts on Flow State...a very common term in use these days.   The discussion leads down the path of meditation and more. Gina briefly describes a new approach to therapy she has recently become interested in, Internal Family Systems (IFS).   For Bill, as for many, it was as if a light bulb went off, clarifying a lot for him personally. This was a great episode, and I hope you will enjoy it as much as we enjoyed making it.   Want more of Bill K & Gina Faye? CLICK HERE!
