The D Shift

In today's episode, Dr. Mort Orman shares his experience developing a framework for not managing stress but banishing it from your life. He shares his personal development over the years and how misunderstandings around stress and managing stress contribute to the problem.

Dr. Mort shares insight into the truth about stress. He discusses the system he used to treat his own stress and how he now uses that with his clients. We discuss how fears or stressors such as public speaking, relationship issues, or workplace interactions do not need to control our lives. Through Dr. Mort's framework, anyone can identify the causes of anger, stress, or other negative emotions and dissipate that emotion through evaluating our reactions and looking at the reality rather than our assumptions and internal stories.

This is an eye-opening discussion about the "management of stress" and why that is a problem. By simply managing stress, we are not addressing the automatic thoughts and behaviors driving stress responses and behaviors.

If you are dealing with stress (and who isn't today!), this is an important message you need to hear.

On today's episode, Dea Irby, The Belonging Mentor, shares her passion for helping people to feel connected. This stems from the foundational statement that everyone wants to feel a sense of belonging and involvement in a positive community. We discuss how focusing on helping others to feel connected in your personal and professional life is the best way to build your self-care and your ability to be an effective leader. We talk about how to use the CLAIM acronym throughout the divorce to ground yourself, your kids, and if you are a business owner or leader, your staff.

We talk through the five thoughts or ideas to create a sense of community on a big scale or on a small scale. By breaking it down into the CLAIM strategy, you can focus on making everyone feel involved, cared for, valued, and important – and isn’t that the most important thing we can do for all people in our lives?

For a great message, tune into Dea’s TEDx talk: https://bit.ly/DIrbyTEDx .

On today's episode, Elaine Blais shares how we are perceived as kids and how those "labels" were really designed to create a script that we feel obligated to follow. We have a great discussion about how midlife is a time to disrupt life and to turn things into what we want and not what we think people want us to do.

This is an essential part of finding ourselves as women, but it can be overwhelming making all these changes. Elaine talks about how these changes can be a gift, including the gift of divorce, which can give us the opportunity to be who we want to be. We talk about reality and how we often don't know what we want to do, and feeling lost or searching is a natural part of this rediscovery of ourselves. We need to stop shaming, blaming, and questioning ourselves about wanting something different and making a change.

We discuss how relationships can change over time, and how our perceptions or baggage may hold us in relationships that are no longer helpful, healthy, or supportive. Elaine shares her ideas on healing and moving forward, letting go of these limits, and seeking self-approval. Shedding old programming about perfection and what we are "supposed" to be is the only way to develop our own self-approval and step into our full potential.

About the Guest:

Elaine Blais, is a certified life coach, midlife troublemaker (aka difficult woman), spiritual practitioner, and author who specializes in empowering women to reclaim their personal power through the art of self-approval. Through her own experiences, including divorce, she has come to understand the power of embracing all aspects of oneself, even those that may be perceived as "difficult." Now, she is passionate about helping others do the same, by writing a new story for their lives. Elaine believes that being a "difficult" woman is not only acceptable but powerful and she is here to support and guide you in your own journey of self-discovery and empowerment.

On today's episode, Marie Perez shares her insight into shifting unhealthy patterns by helping ourselves. We discuss being "fixers" and how that often leads to a lack of self-care. Reflecting on the choices we make in the past helps us to use self-assessment tools to determine where we struggle and what we need to do to make positive changes.

Marie discusses her journey in self-discovery and learning how to shift thoughts and behaviors. We touch on emotional eating, relationships, and how our behaviors develop over time. Once we can identify the thinking and behaviors that are unproductive, we can change those thoughts and behaviors to develop lasting change.

Finding and staying on the right path through her own life, Marie now works with women to change mindsets and thinking around patterns of behavior. We talk about the realities of change and shifts and how we have the inner ability to do things that make our life better. This is not about blaming or shaming ourselves but rather about making small shifts that lead to big results. As a coach, she supports her clients in making these changes, even in stressful times.

About the Guest:

Marie Perez is a Certified Health & Lifestyle Coach who is passionate about helping women revive and restore areas of life that are broken or lost. Known as an energizer, Marie inspires others to live with intentional joy. She also has natural, cutting-edge products that can help others be healthier and stronger in their lives.

On today's episode, Amy Janece talks about her experience in finding out how the colors we choose impact how we present to others and ourselves. She shares her personal story and how, as a doubter, she was amazed at the difference in making different choices and aligning her colors with her element. Amy talks about the confidence and empowerment she sees in women who find themselves happy with how they look and how their confidence radiates through.

We talk about how elements (Fire, Water, Air, Earth) are more than just the “season” colors that were popular in the past. The elements also incorporate your personality and a range of factors, including body and face shape and how you present yourself in the world. Amy then talks about the science of color and how colors evoke emotions. She also provides a brief breakdown of the general characteristics of the different elements, including how this impact all aspects of life.

On today's episode, Todd Creager, Marriage, and Sex Therapist talks about the importance of managing trauma and breaking free from toxic relationships through tapping into neuroplasticity and emotional regulation. He shares his expertise in starting fresh and creating new ways of changing patterns in relationships. The message is one of positivity and having the autonomy to make decisions to improve future partner selection by recognizing unhealthy and unproductive patterns.

Todd provides a scenario of how childhood relationships are carried out in our lives as adults, and how breaking the pattern starts with doing the inner work. We talk about how neuroplasticity, or the brain’s ability to change, allows us to make healthier choices and break out of toxic behaviors and relationships. He also shares the very positive message that individuals can do a lot of work on their own in gaining a better understanding of yourself. Todd provides practical steps of how to make these changes through emotional regulation and neuroplasticity.

In today's episode, Leanne Kanzler talks about the importance of finding ourselves before entering into the dating world after a divorce. Leanne discusses issues from her own experience as well as those of her friends, colleagues, and clients. Leanne is both a psychologist and a coach, working with people moving into the dating world after going through a divorce or a relationship breakup.

We talk about how carrying the anger and issues from the divorce into the dating relationship creates problems, and not being able to let go will limit your ability to find a partner moving forward. We talk about some important tips for having those first dates as a single person, including letting go of talking about the ex. This can take time, and giving yourself space and time to find out who you are after marriage is essential in knowing what you want in your next relationship. Leanne talks about the importance of being a confident, happy, single woman before seeking to be a partner is the best way to ensure you find the right person.

Leanne provides insight as to when to move into the dating game. This includes knowing who you want in a partner and what qualities you want to see in that person and in your life together. It all starts with being happy and complete with who you are before looking for a partner for a serious relationship. Leanne provides some great tips for getting into the online dating world and doing it right!

About the Guest:

Leanne Kanzler is a psychologist and coach, author, and speaker. She is a business owner, wife, and mother.

Leanne believes that we find our true selves through our deepest wounds. Her sense of being disconnected from herself and the world around her drove her to continually self-reflect and grow.

After being in a controlled marriage for twenty years, she took a leap of faith and started to do things for herself, finding herself along the way. This journey led to many realizations, including a beautiful second marriage.

Now, she is passionate about helping others go from Breakup to Breakthrough.

This means discovering your sense of self and what you want for YOU. Self-empowerment is the key to happy relationships and great boundaries.

Leanne knows that by helping both men and women, there is a flow-on effect, where the children and extended family also benefit.

In today's episode, Lana Kirtley talks about her passion for helping women to move forward on their empowered health journey. We talk about how your health and well-being are always your responsibility, and you have the choice to just treat the symptoms or to resolve the root cause of the problem.

Lana talks about how access to information about health issues, no matter where you live, is now available. However, the amount of information can be overwhelming. Lana shares how your PCP and general medical/family doctor may not have the depth of knowledge and experience you need to manage your health journey. Lana's statement, "That what you love you treat differently", starts with learning to love yourself and to focus on your own health. Taking control of your health journey is a step in treating yourself with love and compassion. Eating right, making lifestyle changes, and recognizing that you have control over your health is a freeing and empowering choices in your life.

Lana shares how she navigated her change in seeing herself and the importance of her health through the divorce and moving forward. What are your health goals, and what are you doing to take empowered steps in moving forward? Lana provides amazing insight to help you determine where you want to focus your energy and efforts.

In today's episode, Ricky shares information on how to add happiness and gratitude to your life, even in times of challenge. Ricky has studied different forms of how to create happiness in life and the importance of choosing our thoughts to create the happiness we desire. This includes turning our inner critic into our inner friend and giving ourselves the gift of forgiveness.

Ricky busts the myth of "fake it till you make it" and walks us through how to stay positively focused and move forward using the focus of "act as if." In other words, thoughts are either positive or negative, and we have the ability to look at things from different perspectives. This is not about being happy 100% of the time but looking for possibilities in all situations. We talk about how life includes painful situations and trying to eliminate or minimize real-world situations is not only unhelpful but unrealistic. However, even in the most challenging times, there are things to be grateful for that change our mental and physical response to the day.

This is a truly positive and uplifting message and podcast. Ricky shares his passion and mission of spreading happiness and gratitude around the world by talking about the positivity and possibilities in life.
