Guest bio:

Archie Messersmith-Bunting, M.S., The Feelings Guy™, is a mental wellness coach, consultant, and professional speaker who helps people discover how leading with their feelings can improve their quality of life and save the lives of those they come in contact with. Archie was a successful musical theater performer in New York City before addiction and clinical depression destroyed his childhood dream and led him to a place where he believed suicide was his only answer. After battling back from the jaws of addiction, Archie now uses the stages he graces to remind others that we are all more than "just" the wreckage of our past. He uses his voice to share with audiences that individual moments and decisions in our life do not define us, but they can help design us. Archie has been featured on multiple NBC, CBS and FOX local affiliates and several podcasts including Braving the Journey, Positive Changes: A Self-kick start, & The Failure Guy.


Today’s episode covers everything from:

  • Changing the negative things you tell  your brain
  • Be gentle with yourself and learn how to reframe the negative
  • Easing into meditation
  • Coping mechanisms for negative self-talk
  • Starting the day with morning intentions and ending the day reflecting on gratitude
