One Inch Past Scary

I’m back my darling babies and today I’m talking about how after a major holiday season breakdown I’m embracing the liberation of Having No Perfect (or even Good) Choices right now. Also chatting about our collective burnout and how Just Being is truly all we need to be.

I’ve had ADHD all my life was diagnosed in my late 30’s but have not done much research or sought treatment until how. How the fiasco of my first pottery lesson led to me to understand how much it has been limiting me and hindering my self acceptance. And why I’m ready to make some real changes.

When Survivors speak publicly they are often met with crushing pushback. Many sense that they then need to manage the public perception and fallout. This episode helps survivors to navigate these fears and to stay in their own lane to healing. I also speak to how we can all be better at understanding why Survivors choose to go public and how critical it is that we support them.

In part 1 of this episode: How I put an end to my tormented striving to find my Purpose and started living an life of self acceptance and purpose fulfilled. In part 2 I talk about how the fear of the opinions of others can keep victims silenced and forever trapped in trauma. How finding the courage to risk upsetting and alienating others will ultimately bring us more love peace and healing than anything we ever stood to lose.

Returning after a very long hiatus with a crowd favourite MMA fighter coach and gym owner, Joe Garcia! We talk about how devastating Covid-19 was to his business, his lifestyle and even his identity and how he pivoted, got creative and grew. A really inspiring chat!

If you are feeling overwhelmed depleted numb disconnected frightened or all of the above right now you are not alone. I have been struggling with the same but I can shift to a better state when I choose to. It’s never been more important for us to take care of ourselves. I talk about what I’m doing to protect my mental health and proactively manage this season of grief and chaos in this short and impromptu podcast

Darlings! I’m back with some affirmations and guided breathing and stretches you can incorporate into any situation or challenge to manage stress and help you to know that you are capable of managing each moment as it comes.

Do you find that you do fine with the “New Normal” for a few days, and then suddenly find yourself dipping into a zone where everything feels *super* weird, overwhelming and even scary? In today’s episode, I’m talking about this common new phenomenon and my personal strategies for how to get out of the valley and making the rollercoaster ride less intense in general.

Dr. Gardner has the perspective of treating patients with Co-vid-19 in various markets: suburban, rural, sleepy towns and Las Vegas. Our chat focuses on making the best of our new normal, doing all we can do to protect ourselves without spiralling into paralysing fear and an overwhelming preoccupation with the virus. And ways we can protect our mental health, build immunity and create unity during this trying time.

Is quarantine making you bitchy, intolerant, irritable. judgmental and generally not your best self ? ME TOO! In this 2nd anniversary of my podcast I unpack why fear can look like unkindness, how love is not about being controlling and the things which are helping me to start being kinder to myself and others.
