REDEFINE YOUR PURPOS(ES) WITH THE ANXIETY ALCHEMIST, SUZANNE ORLANDO, LCSW/Psychotherapist

In this episode I go into WHY always making your children "happy" is NOT going to set them up for success. Listen to hear why encouraging your children to explore their emotional discomfort is a crucial piece to development.

In this episode, I get super transparent about what it's like to struggle while parenting our adolescent children.

In this episode, I go fully transparent in sharing a recent moment where I personally struggled with feeling the impact of "Imposter Syndrome"

In this episode, I touch on why there will never be a "right time" to make the shift you've been wanting to make. You'll also learn two strategies to start moving toward what you have been desiring and away from your excuses. Get ready to shift and change, you deserve it!

One of the biggest struggles we humans contend with, is accepting our UNCOMFORTABLE emotions for what they are. In this episode, I break down a KEY strategy to begin to understand, process, and practice how to accept those emotions, that we typically avoid, distract ourselves from or ignore.

Much Love,

It's been a long time, and a few things have shifted, check out this episode as I discuss my own transformation since I began this channel, and fully accepting where I am today, and where I am taking this podcast! Cannot wait for you to come along for the ride!

What if our education system developed a K-12 curriculum, to include classes on how to engage in self-compassion, and prioritize self-care?

No, I'm not talking about Social Emotional Learning (SEL) that happens for an hour a week, where kids slap "inspirational quotes" on the walls of the school, or bulletin boards. I'm talking about a class structured in every grade level like, Math or English. Imagine how our kids would thrive socially and emotionally if they were to learn and understand HOW to incorporate compassion into their lives at a young age. Check out the podcast to dive deeper into this thought with me, and hear why I feel this is a crucial shift that needs to happen.

This is a bit of a different episode.  Lately I've been having a multitude if conversations, with educators, clients, and kids on all grade levels, facing public education as we know it today in 2023.  I am hearing so many more struggles students, teachers, and parents are having the last few years.  Most public schools have introduced a Social Emotional Learning (SEL) curriculum to support students emotionally, normalize talking about feelings, and awareness of peer relationships.  This is such a necessary shift within our educational system.  However, the academic expectations, have not been adjusted to meet the needs of our post pandemic students and teachers.  Check out my thoughts on WHY I feel we are in an academic crisis in America.

Check out this episode as I reflect on the end of the month, and end of the year, with a way to shift our mindset through a different lens.

In this episode you will learn a simple step by step strategy to start developing habits that lead to you feeling  productive.
