Standing In Your Truth: Medical Advocacy, Faith, and Finding Purpose with Casey Taton

Episode Summary:
In this powerful and heart-opening episode, Shabana sits down with her dear friend Casey Taton, host of the Inner Spark Podcast, to talk about one of the most courageous journeys you’ll ever hear. Casey opens up about her years-long battle with a rare medical condition, the emotional toll of being dismissed by doctors, and how trusting her intuition saved her life.

She shares how her faith evolved through suffering, what it took to advocate for herself when the system failed her, and how her darkest moments eventually led to her life mission: founding Little Moments Big Dream Celebrations, a nonprofit bringing joy to kids facing medical battles.

This conversation is honest, emotional, uplifting, and a reminder that even in our most chaotic seasons, purpose is being formed.

What We Talk About in This Episode:

• Casey’s proudest moments and the exact turning point where she stood up for herself
• Her intense, years-long medical journey through misdiagnosis, dismissal, and ultimately life-changing surgeries
• Trusting your gut — even when medical professionals disagree
• How faith, prayer, and surrender played a role in her survival
• The community support that carried her through financial and emotional hardship
• How her experience inspired her nonprofit serving hospitalized children
• Ways people can support her mission (financially or non-financially)
• Her dream travel destinations, holiday favorites, and simple things that bring her joy

About Casey Taton:

Casey is the host of Inner Spark Podcast and the founder of Little Moments Big Dream Celebrations, a nonprofit dedicated to celebrating children going through medical challenges. Her passion is turning pain into purpose and reminding others that they’re never alone in their battles.

In this cozy, heart-centered holiday episode, we’re unpacking the 12 Days of Christmas — People Pleaser Edition.
If the holidays tend to overwhelm you, drain your energy, or bring up guilt, expectations, and pressure, this episode is your soft landing.

I’m sharing the simple mindset shifts, grounding practices, and real-life reminders that help me stay calm, present, and aligned during the busiest time of the year.
 From drinking more water than alcohol, to setting healthy boundaries around gifts, sleep, leftovers, and family gatherings — this episode is your permission slip to make the holidays easier, lighter, and more joyful.

Plus: a bonus reminder about December being the month of miracles, and how to “place your order” with the universe for the new year ahead.

• Why drinking more water than alcohol can completely change your holiday sleep and mood
• How to let go of gift guilt — and who you really need to buy for
• The nervous-system magic of petting your dog (or taking a mindful nature walk)
• How asking for help actually strengthens relationships
• Why going to bed early is emotional intelligence, not “getting old”
• How to set up a “phone-a-friend” code word for big family gatherings
• Simple, stress-free gift ideas for yourself and your home
• Why leftovers are optional and guilt-free
• The mindset shift that turns December into a month of miracles

• You’re not responsible for everyone’s holiday happiness.
• Set boundaries that support your energy — not your guilt.
• You’re allowed to rest, simplify, ask for help, say no, and choose yourself.
• A peaceful holiday season is possible when you listen to your body and honor your needs.
• Manifestation begins with feeling good and being available for blessings.

• Emily Fletcher’s manifestation code: Feel good → feel good → place the order → feel good.
• Holiday stress resets: pets, nature walks, breathing breaks
• The “guacamole” code word strategy (get-out-of-family-gatherings hack!)

If you enjoyed this episode, share it with a friend who needs a little extra peace and permission this holiday season.

In this bonus episode, Shabana shares a warm, honest, and deeply personal conversation about boundaries—why they matter, why they feel so hard during the holidays, and how choosing yourself can bring more peace, joy, and simplicity. From Thanksgiving expectations to healing old wounds, this episode invites you to rethink your “shoulds” and honor what your soul really needs.

• What a boundary actually is (in real-life terms)
• Why the holiday season brings extra pressure and people-pleasing
• How saying “no” can heal old patterns and create peace
• What childhood wounds have to do with boundaries
• How to choose simplicity, rest, and joy — without guilt
• Practical ideas for holiday boundaries that feel empowering

• Boundaries protect your mental, emotional, and physical well-being.
• Choosing yourself is not selfish — it’s healing.
• People-pleasing is rooted in fear, not love.
• You don’t need permission to do the holidays differently.
• “No” is a full sentence… and a powerful one.

• Don’t go — plan something restful and fun instead
• Go for a shorter time; drive separately
• Have a Zoom or FaceTime holiday
• Movie day, spa day, crafting, or de-cluttering
• Create new traditions with your family
• Say no to anything that drains your energy

“Never apologize for choosing your own mental health over somebody else’s comfort.”

In this cozy, heartfelt solo episode of Organized Chaos: Stories with Shabana, Shabana reflects on the beautiful chaos of Halloween night — costumes, plans gone sideways, and the unexpected joy of trick-or-treating in the rain.

What started as a night where everyone went in different directions turned into a reminder about surrender, gratitude, and finding happiness in the small, spontaneous moments with our teens.

From soggy candy bags to inflatable costumes, Shabana reminds us that everything always works out — just not always the way we plan.

🌸 Key Takeaways

• Even when plans fall apart, joy finds its way in
  
  
• Letting go allows life to surprise us
  
  
• The smallest moments — like trick-or-treating in the rain — often become the most memorable
  
  
• Gratitude and kindness never go out of style
  
  

Everything really does work out in the end, maybe just not always how we expect

“When we let go of control, we make space for joy to surprise us. Sometimes the rainiest nights lead to the sweetest memories.” 🌧️💛
