Soshy Adelstein is a wellness coach who helps women let go of harmful beliefs around dieting, eating, exercise, and weight. On this episode, we learn about her story growing up in the Orthodox Jewish community, leaving home at 17, and fending for herself in New York City. This talk is for anyone who is navigating guilt, shame, and self-depreciation or who finds themselves "self-sabotaging" or caught up around food and their body. Soshy offers a framework for looking at unpacking our relationship with dieting, food, and body image through the lens of healing trauma. As always we hold nothing back, speaking to our rock bottoms, and sharing our process right as we're in it.

Courtney Brame is back for part two to speak to current events around racial justice and equality and the Black Live Matters movement. He is the founder of Something Positive for Positive People, a podcast and non-profit fighting stigma and shame around sexuality and STIs. 

On this episode, you will hear a vulnerable and uncomfortable conversation around racism, activism, and the parallels between herpes and race, and I hope it empowers you to have more of these important discussions in your own life. Courtney offers an important message for anyone asking, “what can I do,” and invites you to aim not just to do better, but to do differently, become comfortable with conflict, get angry, and inconvenience yourself.

Courtney Brame is the Founder of Something Positive for Positive People a podcast and non-profit that started as a suicide prevention resource for people navigating a herpes diagnosis. It's evolved to offer resources and facilitate emotional healing and community building for those facing stigma and shame around sexuality and STIs at large. 

We talk about his experience with identity as a “sex-positive, black, non-monogamous man from the mid-west.” What is it about STIs that drives people to feel so small and isolated? Topics include trauma, vulnerability, the importance of anchoring in your values, sexuality, inner work, and disclosure. 

If you’re in a place where you don’t know who you are anymore, congratulations! Listen to this episode to relieve yourself from the pressures of shame and stigma and remember that you are not alone. Your identity cannot be boxed into a label, and certainly not a diagnosis!

The global pandemic has forced us to pause and turn inward. As we take a deep collective exhale, we may find space to come into alignment and heal. On this episode we explore what inner harmony is, what it’s not, and different perspectives and practices to “get there.”

When the external world is turned upside down, how can we create our own sustainable happiness and peace? Learning that our external reality is always in flux and never certain, how do we build a sense of stability, clarity, ease and fulfillment from within? We dive into the key to alignment, both within and to that which is greater than ourselves. Enjoy!

This episode is an invitation to go straight to the places you've been most ashamed, nervous, or fearful to explore. As a break for all of us in quarantine, here's something juicy, traditionally taboo, full of raw storytelling, and relevant to each and every person on planet earth. Evolutionary life coach Amanda Biccum and I cover tantra, sexuality, relationship (polyamory, monogamy and everything in-between), identity, boundary setting, self-worship vs. self-care, empowerment, masculine-feminine polarity, etc. 

This discussion is made for anyone interested in new-paradigm, high-vibrational relationship, and those that want to learn more about connecting to their vital life force -- that is sex and isn’t, all at the same time.

Join this deep dive discussion exploring our fear of the ordinary, how our culture has shamed us for living average lives, and ways to move forward in this media-driven world without going insane! 

It will challenge what you've been told, and it may even trigger you. YAY! We have the opportunity here to mind the gap between our aspirational values, and how we're actually living our lives. We get a chance to explore how privilege, power dynamics, and entitlement have tainted the self-help industry. We'll learn how to TAKE OUR POWER BACK from a place of groundedness instead of floaty spiritual bypass. 

This episode is for EVERYONE, especially those interested in "manifestation," and creating confidence, ease, and joy in their lives. This is designed to help you stop feeling like something is missing, there's never enough __, or that the grass is always greener, and that we must compete to succeed. Let's get real about "abundance."
