In the last week, we have all watched as horrific events have continued to unravel around the globe. It's a lot to take in and process.

There's been a huge debate around these events. Compassion fatigue is real. Do we look away from the horrific events that are happening, to save ourselves? Or do we keep our eyes on the pain occurring in the Middle East and beyond? 

The answer, just like the problem, isn't a simple one. 

No. None of us can afford to look away. Yes. We can burn our compassion out. What is the solution? Finding the balance so you can remain an engaged member of society, who cares for their own needs. 

In this episode, I'll help you understand your compassion fatigue and what you can do to rest and recharge - while remaining engaged in reality. Listen in now for the relief you've been looking for.

Have you gotten yourself stuck in the trigger trap? Do you keep running through the same painful memories over and over again?

This is a pretty common mistake that most survivors make at some point. Trying to uncover what went wrong in the past, they can get caught up in anxious and negative thought loops. These loops cause rumination, which is an emotionally painful experience. 

Getting lost in rumination will make you more anxious, hopeless, and lost in the journey. For you to stay on track, you have to remember to find the joy in healing and learn how to put the painful memories on the shelf where they belong. 

In this episode, I'll teach you how to do both as we bust the trigger trap and get you out of the miserable rumination cycles that are dragging you down.

Feel like you don't have enough "juice" to get through the day? Do you feel like you can't concentrate on the people and things that matter? Are you foggy or exhausted all the time?

These could be the signs of a low emotional bandwidth. What's that? It's a concept that describes the amount of emotional energy you have to deal with the people and experiences in your life. If your "bandwidth" is low, you have a harder time regulating your emotions and responding to the pressures in your life.

To get back to a place of calm, ease, and courage, you must get your emotional bandwidth back online. How do you do that?

In this episode, I'm going to break down the techniques that I teach my clients to regulate their emotions and recover from periods of emotional burnout. If you've been feeling like you don't have the strength for the emotional labor in your life, this is the episode you don't want to skip.

Do you have a bad habit of gaslighting yourself? Do you tell yourself your trauma wasn't so bad? Or that maybe you had a hand to play in it?

Survivors do a better job of gaslighting themselves than their abusers do. It's one of the reasons it's so hard to accept what happened and heal. Instead of staring their trauma in the face, survivors get trapped in a cycle of downplaying and dismissing it.

In this episode, I'm going to give you my top technique for beating this toxic gaslighting cycle. Stop blaming yourself, stop pretending it didn't happen, and most importantly get yourself out of the Pain Olympics and stop comparing your suffering to others.

By the end of this episode, you're going to learn how I, and others like me, have exited the gaslighting cycle and embraced a reality we can heal within.

Are you still trying to figure out why your parent hurt you? Feel a deep need to identify the causes behind that last abusive relationship?

Here's the deal: your nervous system doesn't care why any of it happened. It doesn't care if that person who hurt you was a narcissist. It doesn't care if they have BPD or autism. All it knows is that it was traumatized. All your body knows is that it's in pain and it doesn't want to be in pain anymore. 

Too many survivors get caught in the trap of trying to pathologize their trauma. Many think that if they get the right "label" on someone (or something) it will magically explain away the hurt. 

But it doesn't...and it can't. 

In this episode, we'll discuss getting out of the pathology trap and getting focused on what really matters. Improving our own lives and psychological well-being.

Feel like you're drowning in debt? Do you think you'll never be able to live a comfortable, abundant life?

That's what I thought too after decades of narcissistic abuse and a history of childhood trauma. As it turns out, that history of family dysfunction had turned into an obstacle that was blocking my own ability to create a financially and emotionally abundant life. 

In this episode, I'll detail the ins and outs of childhood trauma and how it shapes our relationship to financial abundance (and self). Listeners will want to take notes because I'm going to break down how to get out of the abundance slump and defeat those patterns of childhood scarcity thinking once and for all.

Spiritual practices are all the rage right now, but some of them aren't leading people into the light. They're banishing people into the darkness of mental illness...

We've all seen the videos. People are in full-on spiritual psychosis, starting cults and forming extreme communities all over the world and the web. What is happening? Why are so many people turning away from reality to their detriment?

Some of it comes back to spiritual bypassing. 

It's easier to look to the sky than it is to go to a doctor, take medicine, or confront the trauma that damaged you. That requires looking inside and being accountable for the mess you find. A lot of people would rather dissociate through spiritual practices. 

Now is the time to skip this path and embrace a healthier one - mental and emotional healing. It's a rocky path, but a worthy one, and one we can only take hold of when we have a well-rounded toolbox of skills and coping mechanisms to support us.
