  • 014 New Year’s Eve – A New Resolution
    In this episode, Susan discusses:
    * Setting realistic, focused goals for 2020.
    * The power in just getting started.
    * Having choice and making decisions in seeing those choices unfold.
    Key Takeaways:
    * Let go of some of your excuses, limitations, buts, and boundaries that have held you back this year and go into 2020 with real clarity of vision.
    * You can take a resolution and begin it again - every day if needed, as it takes time to change ingrained habits and every day is brand new.
    * Evaluate your 2019 - see what you did well and what needs changed, then craft small, revolutionary steps that will help you form new habits in 2020.
     
    "I think it’s more important to just start and do a little at a time. Not necessarily going for the “gold,” but keeping an eye on the goal and taking small steps to get there. I know I’ll be much more successful in 2020 doing it this way." —  Susan Dascenzi

  • 013 The Holiday Season - Not the Same for Everyone
    In this episode, Susan discusses:
    * The different ways that people feel towards the holiday season.
    * All the different holidays, some lesser-known, that people celebrate this time of year.
    * How we can support others during this time or how we can be supported by others.
    Key Takeaways:
    * Be mindful that not everyone enjoys the holidays, some may feel quite the opposite – fearful, sad or lonely
    * The holidays can be a great time to put aside differences and come together for the sake of the bond you share
    * If you are feeling positive about the holiday season, lend a helping hand or a simple smile to someone that may need it
    * If you do not typically have a positive holiday experience, reach out to someone that can support you or spend time with you
    "I invite you to reach out to those that can lend a supportive hand if you're feeling sad, a little depressed, down, or anxiety-ridden about this time of year. And if you're feeling oh so full of love and joy, spread that too...it is beautiful to spread love and to share in the happiness, the gift and the gratitude of life." —  Susan Dascenzi

  • 011 Audrey Weidman: Stress CAN be a Killer!
    In this episode, Susan and Audrey discuss:
    * How Audrey DID NOT know she had a heart attack for 2 days and the different types
    * Mindset tools that help women reduce stress
    * Lessons from the stress mastery program
    Key Takeaways:
    * Embracing cardiac rehab and how meditation became powerful tools to heal her physically and mentally
    * It is important to be present and not multitask all the time - focus on one thing at a time and learn to be in the present
    * Stress is excess demand vs capacity, so you have to either let things go or increase your capacity
    "All we have is the present. The past is gone, the future isn’t here yet, and we have this gift called the present." —  Audrey Weidman
    About Audrey Weidman: In October of 2016, Audrey experienced a life-changing event. She had a heart attack. This flew in the face of her identity as the “model” of healthy living. An angiogram showed that she had no plaque build-up in her arteries – which was a reflection of her healthy lifestyle, but that she had developed a tear in her coronary artery called a SCAD.
    After some reflection, Audrey realized she brought the heart attack upon herself. She knew she took care of her body, but didn't take care of her mind and the thoughts she was thinking and realized that the self-talk and stress she put on herself caused the heart attack. This made her realize, without a doubt, that thoughts become things.
    Audrey became a Certified Stress Mastery educator with the American Institute of Stress and is a healthy lifestyle advocate working with women who have cardiovascular disease so they can create a balance of mind and body. Heart disease is the #1 killer of women in the Western World and is largely preventable as prevention and recovery start with a healthy mindset.

  • 010 Kicking your BUTs into Oblivion: An Introduction
    In this episode, Susan discusses:
    * The name change of the show, why, and what "Kick Your 'Buts'" really means - the format is the same
    * A recent BUT moment in her life and how she kicked it
    * Getting out of your own way and learning to listen to the language you use
    Key Takeaways:
    * How we put self-imposed limitations on ourselves and how we can move through them in order to step onto the path of infinite possibilities that we all have before us and within us.
    * kickyourbuts.com (http://www.kickyourbut.com/) is a new website that is dedicated to the podcast alone and will offer the opportunity for anyone to record a message to me via the "Start Record" button - especially a "But" moment that is holding them back. Will break down those moments I receive on future episodes...may play the clip.
    * Don’t let your fears of what might happen, keep you from starting because it will keep you "stuck" in the negative language you're listening to.
    "You just have to start. It isn’t about having it all right or perfect. It’s not about having all the plans in place. It’s sometimes about throwing a whole bunch of shit at the wall and seeing what sticks. And you start there." —  Susan Dascenzi

  • 009 Scared and Fearless Susan
    In this episode, Susan discusses:
    * How using excuses can keep you from moving forward and finding your passion
    * Learning to honor the part of you that is afraid without letting it have power over you
    * How the language we use can help to uncover obstacles that are holding you back
    Key Takeaways:
    * Using the word "but" causes one to hear ONLY what comes AFTER the word "but"...not what comes before
    * The impact of the language you verbally use, as well as what you hear in your head, is huge and makes all the difference in how we move through an obstacle or emotion
    * Keep track of how many times you use the word "but" throughout your day - you might be surprised at how ingrained it is in your everyday language
    "Every piece of language that we use, whether we say it out loud or hear it silently in our minds, can either be a positive or negative enforcer. The positive enforcer drives us to taking the next step on our path. The negative enforcer paralyzes us into inaction and fear. Be aware of the enforcer you're listening to if you want to move toward achieving the goals, dreams, and life you desire." —  Susan Dascenzi

    * The role of a doula
    * Defining trauma within birth
    * Practices to help support a new family

    "There is a sad statistic 35-50% of women experience birth trauma, 2.5%-9% will experience birth related PTSD, and many pre and perinatal psychologists feel that the birth trauma for babies is epidemic right now. That sets the stage. How are you treated the very moment that you take your [first] breath?" —  Michelle Smith

Ever noticed how we ALL have a tendency to say the word “BUT” a LOT? Do you ever wonder if there’s something holding you back…some hidden piece? And how, far too often, we get trapped behind the fears…
