This is our first “by request” episode, and we really enjoyed taking the time to have this conversation. Join us as we talk about narcissistic mothers, the impact it can have on our lives, and how to move forward

After going through some transitions, Carrie and Christina talk about different cues our bodies can give us as warning signals.

Not so Secret Trauma Presents Goodbye 300. Join Carrie in sharing her weight journey, leading up to surgery. The intention of this conversation is to fight stigmas surrounding the number on the scale, to bring humanity to obesity. Carrie will be back periodically to share in her journey away from 300.

How do you know when you have been pushed too far, or your kindness has been taken for granted. Carrie and Christina talk about when is enough, enough.

We don’t often think about how we impact the people around us, or the other way around. Maya Angelou said people won’t remember what you said to them but how you made them feel. Carrie and Christina talk about the importance of being mindful of the effect we have on other people, even when we don’t realize it.

Carrie and Christina have challenged the listeners to let them know how they have impacted your life - outside the podcast or because of it.

Brene Brown - Dare to Lead

We can be really angry with someone we love, and at the same time still know that we love them. It can be hard to allow space for two opposite feelings at the same time. Carrie and Christina discuss holding space for two opposite feelings at the same time, and how this can help us move through feelings in a different way

Have you noticed someone whose arms are adorned with artwork, or a small piece on their ankle. Have you wondered how they managed to sit through the pain in order to obtain these pieces of art? Carrie and Christina discuss whether tattoos are considered a form of non-suicidal self injury. We would love to hear your thoughts on the matter as well

Sometimes things don’t go as we plan, and sometimes that is ok. Join Carrie and Christina as they talk about things going sideways. This is a little out of our normal format, but we hope you enjoy it!

Most of us know that place, where we are ready to give in, give up, turn back. What if we pushed through those feelings? Carrie and Christina talk about Growth Edge, are we just uncomfortable or is it unsafe. Come along for the ride!
