  • (#52) ho ho NO!
    How to set and hold boundaries to respect and honor yourself during the Christmas season and all year through. Let's get real boundaries are uncomfortable if we weren't raised by parents who taught and respected our boundaries. If we were raised in unhealthy environments boundaries can be downright devastating and stall us out from living the life that were meant to live and further deplete our bucket of energy and view of our self-worth.
    In order to have the Christmas that you want to have and live the life that you desire for yourself you must learn to put yourself first and honor your needs in your life and boundaries are a critical skill for you to do just that.
    Don't miss out on this powerful coaching session and visualization to help you crystallize a path forward while creating a measuring process to witness your progress.

Loose expectations, stop overbooking yourself, learn to set boundaries and say no this year to anything that doesn't fit the narrative of what you want to create for you and those who matter the most this season.

  • (#50) What is Self Care?
    I used to think that self-care was getting the coffee I wanted on the way home from a busy day of volunteering and then I expanded my thought pattern to believing it was a bubble bath with a book and a scented candle and no interruptions. But my nervous system needed something more from me and the trauma work I was doing with a specialized psychodynamic therapist taught me that self-care was a much deeper actioning belief system then I had ever been exposed to before. Self care not only included my thought processes and small kindnesses that I allowed myself. Dismantling the guilt, shame, fear that surrounds self-care for recovering codependent people is key to creating the ability to prioritize you in your own life in a loving and healthy way. Self-care is ensuring that your basic needs are prioritized in your daily life. Things like eating right and getting enough rest, going to the doctor and treating illnesses and injuries. Ensuring that you surround yourself with people who respect you, prioritize you, see you and honor you. It is setting boundaries and ensuring that you are putting you first in the life that you are living in more ways then scented candles and favorite coffee choices. Self-care is how your subconscious thinks and talks to your conscious self, it's your accountability to your role in your life and choosing to step into a place of healing your trauma wounds. You are worthy of self-care that is deeper than top level crystals and affirmations, I'm talking the type of self care that is like a lightning bolt straight to your brilliantly shining soul that begins to create earthquakes from within that allow you to freely be who you are meant to be.
    Enjoy this coaching episode that is going to challenge you into stepping forward and building the self-loving care around you by prioritizing you and getting real about your needs.

  • (#49) Do this to cut narcissistic personalities from your life.
    I know it sounds too good to be true that you could do something specific and get rid of abusive, cruel, narcissistic, out of control egos, manipulators, arrogant, those who lack empathy, those who exploit you, those who use you, anyone who doesn't see or respect you and evidence that through a combination of words and actions that are consistently measured over time. These people need to get out of your life! They need to be shown the door and they need to know that the door is closed when they come knock on it again. But how do you do that? I struggled with this myself for decades and decades and decades finding myself in repeat relationships of the same personality type. A personality that mimicked my childhood abuser, so my sense of normal was skewed to toxic emotional, mental, physical, sexual abuse. That's not normal but I didn't know that because I was a child and so every relationship that I had subsequently repeated that pattern until I learned this skill that I'm going to share with you in today's episode. Now just hearing today's episode is going to make some of you squeamish, maybe even angry, definitely some of you fearful, nervous.. but here's the thing once you have this ingredient to your skill set and you master this ingredient you will be somebody that will repel toxic people because you simply will no longer be a person who feeds egos needs. You will be a supernova power when you master this and at that point there's no looking back to these toxic people. You will set yourself free and on an entirely new path of living and it all begins with you taking this step and seeing how to begin living your life for you. Without fear, without anxiety and panic, without PTSD drowning your every step to where you just are barely breathing and surviving. It is time for you to take your life and your direction into your own hands. Take a listen to today's coaching podcast and open your mind body spirit and soul to the possibility of mastering the skills of self that will set you on the course to your dream life.

  • (#48) Dream It Allow It
    Powerful coaching session that presses into the reality that you've got to be able to DREAM IT and create a vision, a feeling of the life you want before any work you do will truly stick and work. If you can not Dream It, you'll struggle with every part of creating the life you want simply because you'll not know what it is you want! Which ties us directly into ALLOW IT. The flow basis of allowing energy without control and accepting that what is meant for our path will actually find us very naturally, without control, anger, rage, chasing and we will be clear on what it is because we will have that conscious Dream in our minds and know that we are directing our energy towards the right things in order to live the life we want.
    This episode takes our work in season four farther in our quest of being responsible for our path in the life we live and cracks wide open how our behaviors and habits without intention, accountability and purpose keep us locked on paths that are unhealthy and possibly even dangerous to ourselves.
    Enjoy the challenge that Dream It Allow It brings to your day to start getting REAL about your role in the life you are living.

  • (#43) PART 2 PTSD & the Mouse
    You simply will not believe what happened to Nita Monday before heading to her therapy appointment.  Life really does keep pushing and pushing on us until it cracks us wide open, chews us up and throws us into the volcano of choice....Do we fall off the earth and disappear back into the invisible pit of the past, or, do we push forward into the unknown and learn WTF we can do to change our life?  
    Nita opted to learn, to sit in front of her therapist with tears rolling down her cheeks keeping PTSD at bay with her hands on top of her head and learn about frogs and mice and a few other things too.  (okay okay)...we don't all end up on our therapists couch learning, but FFS we should!  
    You will not want to miss this raw lesson in life and what happens over time when we are not safe to be ourselves.  Will Part 2 shake the foundation of healing, or, fracture the foundation of work our warrior has done?  Will she keep moving forward, or be gripped by PTSD once again as she was in 2020 and 2021?
    As always you will enjoy Nita's honest, fun style of talking with you as she shares the newest chapter of this beautiful life she is living.
