On Your Mind

Are you ready to break free from pain that you didn't even know you were carrying? Many of us unknowingly bear the emotional and energetic burdens of generational trauma, fear, and unresolved wounds.

In this revealing conversation, we talk with creative educator and self-healing practitioner Jeanette  Shaw, the author of the powerful new book, Healing Generations: One Breath at a Time. Drawing on over 30 years of teaching experience and her own journey, Jeanette shares her personal story of healing from profound abuse and the deep-seated thought distortions it created about her self-worth.

Discover the essential tools—including the "Forgiveness process" and breathwork—that allowed her to move from denial and physical pain to clarity and self-love. Jeanette’s book offers a pathway to hope and transformation, demonstrating that you are not defined by what happened to you. It's time to stop pushing down the past and start clearing your energy for the generations forward and backwards. Start your healing, one breath at a time.

Are the words you use every day secretly holding you back? In the pursuit of success, well-being, and better relationships, we often focus on discipline, motivation, or knowledge. But what if the real problem lies in the quiet, unconscious language patterns running in the background of your mind?

Join us as we dive into a fascinating conversation with linguistic expert Kristina Driskill. Kristina reveals the concept of "linguistic forensics"—an investigative approach to uncovering the self-sabotage language loops that create pressure, stress, and discord in our lives. Discover the five core Sabotage Language Patterns (Pressure, Minimizing, Maximizing, Blame, and Avoidance) that are often socially supported and rewarded, making them invisible traps. Learn why it’s not the words themselves, but the energy and awareness behind them that matters, and how you can shift from a reactive or repressed state to a responsive one.

This isn't about fixing a problem; it's about gaining radical awareness that unlocks choice, transforming your life from the inside out.

Are we limiting our mental health toolkit? In a world focused on “symptoms and medications,” Dr. Emma Bragdon introduces a structured, community-based path to wellness: Spiritism. Founded by Allan Kardec and widely practiced in Brazil, Spiritism blends spirituality with ethical practice and study. In this conversation, we explore how it reframes certain mental health experiences, provides ethical guardrails for mediums, and reflects a growing interest in spirituality within mental health—recognized even by the American Psychiatric Association. If traditional care feels incomplete, this episode explores how integrating spirituality may support deeper healing and human potential.

Are you exhausted from the constant conflict, the endless enabling, and the feeling that you're the only one who sees your loved one's addiction? Traditional interventions often backfire, driving the person you care about further into denial—and resentment. But what if there was a way to influence change without confrontation? In this exclusive interview, addiction specialist Amber Hollingsworth, creator of the Put The Shovel Down movement, reveals the revolutionary concept of the invisible Intervention. She explains why being the villain is the biggest roadblock to recovery and how shifting your role—from a nag to a trusted advisor—can help your loved one finally see their problem and choose change for themselves. Discover the counterintuitive coaching strategies that leverage empathy and natural consequences to create lasting sobriety, long before rock bottom. If you're ready to stop digging and start building a foundation for recovery, tune in.

When children are diagnosed with ADHD, they are unfortunately seen by society – and sometimes, even their own parents – as broken individuals who need correcting. Roman Wyden, an award-winning filmmaker, entrepreneur, and life coach, wants to put an end to the current narrative of labelling ADHD children as “disordered.” He joins Dr. Timothy J. Hayes to share how his own son’s ADHD diagnosis opened his eyes to the fact that conventional labels surrounding it are actually unhelpful and in bad taste. He explains how his book, podcast, and documentary aim to change everyone’s perspective on ADHD, helping parents to start trusting their intuition and raise their children with genuine love.
