This week I have a very special guest, Dr. Paulie Gavoni, host of Thoughts and Rants of a Behavior Scientist. I consider myself very lucky to not only get to learn from him, but to call him a friend. Tune in to hear his story and perspective on resiliency. I included a link to his show below.

I am so excited to have Dr. Antonio Harrison on the show! He has inspired me in many ways, and I will always be thankful for the push he gave me to make this show a reality. He is a man who wears many hats and jumps into new opportunities without fear or hesitation. Be sure to check out his podcast, Doc's Daily Dose, and you can also find him coaching on the virtual reality fitness app, Supernatural. I included the links to both his show and Supernatural below.

Let’s talk about the power of a positive thought! I will be sharing research around how living a 3:1 ratio of positive to negative thoughts can change your life.

There is so much joy and cheer associated with the holidays, but the reality is there are so many people who are having a difficult time around this time of year.

Are you ready to get the negative out of your life, and start surrounding yourself with people who support your dreams and goals? This week I dive into the topic of toxicity and how it shapes you as a person. People can inspire you or they can drain you. Choose wisely.

I took a little holiday hiatus and reflected on the pressure I was putting on myself around this podcast. I will discuss how I used the ACT Matrix to get myself closer to what really matters – being in the moment with family and friends over Thanksgiving.

The ACT Matrix is my go-to for sorting out any difficulties I am having in life. As long as you are willing to commit to the process and make it a habit in all parts of your life, you will see a shift in your perspective around those negative thoughts that will always be there. The question is... are you willing to take action and make a change?

Below is a link to the ACT Matrix so you can start using it to help you align with your values and live a happier, more peaceful life.

This week, I'll be diving further into the topic of anxiety. I did some research and, as usual, turned to my favorite, Mel Robbins. Her podcast features numerous incredible experts on various topics, and the episode on Anxiety with Dr. Russell Kennedy, the author of Anxiety Rx, was truly insightful. I'm blending what I already knew worked for me and my healing journey with Dr. Russell Kennedy's work on anxiety. I'll be discussing the distinction between coping and healing, and how to build upon the exercises I shared in the last two episodes.

As I've said in the past two weeks, and I'll say it again - you are the only one who can choose to take action and make a change. Show respect for yourself and the people you care about by taking meaningful action.

In this week’s episode, I’ll continue from where I left off, sharing the daily routines that have helped me overcome the anxiety I used to face. I will discuss a perspective a friend shared about resilience, and how it led me to dig deep and reflect on the difference between resilience and strength.

You are the only person who can make the choice to take action and make a change. Have enough respect for yourself and the people you care about to take action.
