LIVE BOLDLY with Sara

After surviving a traumatic car accident 10 years ago, Jordan Tarver had to make a decision that would define his future. He could take responsibility for his life and change it or let his lack of ownership become his slow and silent killer.

Jordan’s unyielding determination led him to transcend adversity through a series of repeatable and easy-to-implement shifts that catapulted him from feeling like the victim to overcoming adversity and unlocking exponential growth. Jordan is a change agent and he shares his outlook here plus shares many free downloads on his website. Jordan is an avid journal writer and he shares journaling prompts from Goal-setting to Self-discovery.

He is an inspirational keynote speaker, and the bestselling author of You Deserve This Sh!t that gives advice, support, and guidance in a way that’s easy to understand.

Jordan and Sara speak about both “coaching” others through change and sharing actionable and simple tools to support you in becoming the best version of yourself.

In today’s episode Sara reminds us to keep looking forward but don’t forget the rear-view mirror. Moving forward is the main direction, that’s why the windshield is larger than the rear-view - but in life, looking back on how we got to this very moment is important and magical. We can learn so much from where we came and it starts to make sense how each thing brought us to who we are today, when you look back and reflect.

The Golden Thread through all of our lives is important to embrace. It is all that lead to the moment today.

We can have gratitude for even the rocky and hard places we have been, because on reflecting we realize we would never be where we are without what came before.

Sara appreciates her golden thread and also her constants of honesty and integrity. What are yours?

Sara welcomes Dr. Sara Nasserzadeh , an author and speaker with a PhD in Social Psychology and specialization in Sexuality, Relationships, and Intercultural Fluency.

Sara and Dr.Nasserzadeh talk about the 6 Ingredients to a fulfilling relationship, found in Dr. Sara’s new book: ranging from attraction, respect, trust, shared vision, and compassion to acts of love.

Once we learn to let that go and be open to a new way of approaching love, we are on the road to long-lasting and fulfilling relationships.

In this solo episode, Sara talks about her recent trip to Yosemite and her 10-mile snow-shoe trek up the mountain. As she lay down in the snow crying from sheer exhaustion along the trail, she took a long hard look at the upside of suffering.

Suffering shows us what we are capable of and the strength we actually have.

Sara tried a technique on herself that she uses on her Grand Canyon retreats. “How many steps can you take?” Say a number, then do just that. She wanted to start with 500, but realized it was impossible. Then she got realistic with how hard it was to climb up a side of the mountain with snowshoes and she reduced her number to 20. With each step, she counted out loud and ultimately made it to their cabin for the night. (hours later than planned)

The big lesson, besides breaking through your suffering and making your goal, is that Even the smallest steps are ok on the mountain and in life. You are still making your way to your goal. And even if suffering, you work through it and push forward.

And there are hidden gifts along the way: Though it was taking longer than planned to reach their destination, she witnessed the most glorious sunset. So the other lesson: Find the plusses, not the negatives. Yes, it took her longer, but she was “Gifted” a most exquisite mountain sunset that she may not have seen if she had been a faster trekker.

We all suffer. But you will find your strength, go through it, and try not to harp on the negatives, but rather any “gifts” that come during that time.

Change your present and seize your exceptional future by escaping your painful trauma bond. That’s what Dr. Nae (Nadine Macaluso) did and her new book. Run Like Hell: A Therapist’s Guide To Recognizing, Escaping, And Healing From Trauma Bonds recounts her story and is out now.

At 22, Nadine married Jordan Belfort, infamously known as the Wolf of Wall Street. Their eight-year marriage began as a fairytale, filled with expensive gifts and lavish parties. But once they were bonded, Jordan’s ‘mask’ began to slip and acts of control, infidelity, narcissistic abuse, insatiable greed, and uncontrollable drug addiction became Nadine’s nightmare. Nadine believed that her love could save him, so she remained trauma-bonded until the pain of their relationship became too much to bear. 

She left Belfort and was inspired to become a psychotherapist. It would be decades before she realized her story resembled thousands of other women’s relational experiences.

She now specializes in narcissistic abuse, trauma bonds, and complex PTSD and serves many women in an all-too-familiar story of abuse with a pathological partner. 

Sara and Nadine talk about some of their similar experiences, what Nadine went through and the symptoms of intermittent abuse, power imbalance and fear that actually trauma bond you more to the person. They also want to be sure women do not take on the stereo - typical labels of Learned Helplessness and other terms that seem to put “blame” on the women.

If you or anyone you know is going through this, please listen and pass this episode on to others.

Ever wonder how a stranger can impact you and vice versa? Sara had an enlightening experience as she was taking her group through the Grand Canyon this past week. 

A couple asked her how far to the bottom of the canyon. They wanted to go down and back up in the same day. Sara asked them all the right questions: About their gear, their water, external power source, and all checked out. She found out they were just there for the day. Their only time to have this experience. They lived in South Korea. Then Sara asked about Food and they said they didn’t have that. Sara reached in her backpack and gave them her sandwich. When they protested, she said you have this one day to enjoy this spectacular excursion. You must do it. You need the sandwich more than me.

On their way back up they bumped into Sara and her group who were still making their way down. The appreciation and gratitude the couple had for Sara, the experience, the joy on their faces and their positive feels for the United States was overwhelming.

The lesson was big: Giving some time of ourselves to another can transcend how people see the world, the person, the country - a reminder to give of ourselves to others, can have a ripple effect. They will then give to another and so it goes.

What is your sandwich going to be today? Even small gestures can Create a positive impact in the world. Let’s do it!

Monica Packer is a recovering perfectionist and is sharing what she has discovered along her journey. Her big question is What if you’re stuck but not lazy, what if you’re actually a perfectionist? In this episode Monica and Sara will talk about perfectionism, and not just the stereotypical overachiever, but rather the spectrum, one that can be all-controlling and make you feel like you aren’t making progress, then blame yourself, and so the cycle begins.  

How many of us feel lost? Paralyzed by fear? Burdened by the obsession to be perfect but never seeming to measure up? Caught up in bad cycles that enable you to stay stagnate? Unsure of your own gifts?

Many women feel lost in the cycles of perfectionism and procrastination. Sara is the biggest champion of getting women to overcome fear and grab life by the horns. And her guest today has the same desire to propel women into feeling good about what they do and how they live. Monica created her About Progress community and podcast that guides women to grow into living with purpose and connecting to their greater potential. 

So, choose Progress over Perfection and Remember: Small wins build over time. And don’t be too hard on yourself.

Sara, as many of you know, is an avid mountain climber and also leads groups down the Grand Canyon. Many of the participants use this excursion as a passage through a transitional period in their life, a way to conquer their fears and grasp onto the next thing that’s calling to them, or work on solving an issue in their lives. Much of the time, they are tackling a problem, large or small and with Sara’s coaching and leadership, they go through the experience and come out of the canyon as confident and somewhat changed people ready to grasp every bit of life to make theirs’ the best possible.

In this solo episode, Sara uses the canyon as a metaphor for all of us in the midst of solving our problems. There are words of wisdom in this and she begins by suggesting ways to begin- imagine you are standing on the rim of the Canyon, looking down into what she calls a “ditch”. What is the problem you are working on- what challenge is in front of you? And from there, Sara leads us through how tackling the canyon is similar to tackling our obstacles or issues.

She reminds us of Sara’s 3 P’s: Passion, Purpose and Playing. Don’t ever forget to play. And about the acronym DUDE, which is Canyon lingo that you can use in non-mountain thought processes.

And Sara gives us an important reminder: To be flexible and resilient and ready to Pivot at any given moment .. in the canyon and in life. Join Sara in this virtual Climb to Clarity.

Carson Kranz has been involved with sports from the early age of four. He was a swimmer, he stuck with it, and today he is Captain of the USC Mens Water Polo team. Through his parents’ divorce, moving homes, Covid, and other events in his life, Carson was always encouraged by his mom to keep at his passion, and Carson sees how his involvement in sports and his daily practices truly helped him through some of his tough times. 

He appreciated his coaches, his sense of community, and his own inner drive and diligence to keep him from sinking under emotional pressures.

This talk between mother and son is a great lesson in a parent’s role in support of deep commitments by their children, and letting them find their passion. We also hear from Carson about his discipline for himself but also his utmost caring for his teammates. It is a testament to him that he has the understanding and ability to take inherent Sports codes and translate them to LIFE. 

This will inspire parents, sports kids, and non-sports kids of the power of passion and the resourcefulness within each of us. We even find out about the tools of visualization and breathing that can help us all!

It’s the New Year and you may have created a new Bucket List or reviewed your old one- or not made one. Sara talks about what a bucket list is to her and how some of her items are in Pen vs. Pencil. 

Bucket Lists can include places you want to visit, Professional and/or Personal goals, but one of the most important things to do is to declutter your space and make room for new things and goals. Out with some of the old that you may not even notice anymore. Look around, don’t overlook what’s in front of you, and see what you may truly be done with.

Carving out space for the newly deserved goals is a priority for Sara. What is also a priority is staying aware of what you are called to- that sub-conscious spark. This can lead you to opportunities you may not even imagine …. yet.

Here’s to making space for everything on your bucket list.
