The Experiential Podcast

Let’s look at our attachment styles from a different perspective! I invite you to join Kat Weed and I as we share both our professional and personal experiences regarding the patterns we can find ourselves in when it comes to work, relationships, and dating.

Attachment patterns can fall on such a wide spectrum, and as you’re listening, I invite you to reflect on how you navigate relational experiences. Are you someone who avoids and moves away? Are you someone who easily becomes anxious? Do you find yourself disorganized and all over the place? Maybe you experience a mix of all the above!

Be sure to take the time to pause and notice what’s going on for you throughout our conversation!

About the Guest:

Kat Weed, MA Psych, is a therapist, speaker, guide & overall shit-disturber in her industry. She is also a highly-relatable human who has walked her own twisty & turvy path in this life. She works with growth-oriented, high-functioning women who feel stuck & frustrated because they keep repeating unhelpful patterns over and over, no matter how hard they've tried to change or how many self-help books they have stacked next to their bed. She helps them to uncover who they *actually* are underneath all of their "baggage" (aka their brilliant survival & attachment strategies just masquerading as baggage!), so that they can live their lives based on *who they are*, not who they learned they had to become. She currently works one-on-one with these women, but also has a highly-curated, transformational, BS-free 12-week small group program coming out in September 2024.

Join Marina Triner and I in this juicy conversation about the ongoing journey of shifting out of always being ON and in the go go go, doing mentality. We both share our experiences around coming out of functional freeze while weaving in how the impact of our history has great influence on how it is we navigate life. We also offer suggestions and resources on how you too can explore what shows up for you around these brilliant survival patterns that like to keep you busy and distracted. See what it is that you discover about yourself through this episode!

About the Guest:

Marina Triner teaches body-based somatic tools, mindful self-compassion, and nervous system regulation and emotional healing techniques to awaken a sense of purpose and aliveness.

Based on her life history, she was supposed to live a life of pain, regret, and disconnection and have a career that didn’t spark joy, just to make a living. Trauma runs in her family: the Holocaust, violence and war, financial trouble and poverty.

It also runs in her own life: moving multiple times as a refugee, sexual assault, and emotional neglect. And yet, through it all, through pain and working through her triggers, she is able to keep coming back to deep aliveness and presence, build a thriving business and support thousands.

By deepening your awareness around the many complexities that are at play, you’ll find it easier to see the bigger picture allowing you to piece together more of the puzzle pieces as you heal your trauma and move towards more coherence and freedom!

When it comes to the human experience, you’ll be invited to explore your:

They say that what’s wired together, fires together. Here’s something else to consider. What fires together, ends up getting wired together! This is often a result of trauma and being stuck in the threat response cycle. By recognizing the many different threads that are entangled in the ways you’re stuck in survival, the more you’ll be able to tease apart what’s at play to support a new story to unfold.

Thank goodness for neuroplasticity and the brain and nervous system’s ability to be reprogrammed. Re-wiring IS possible! The key lies in not getting too wrapped up in the story of what happened, but instead bring your awareness and curiosity to what your experiences. Remember, there’s nothing to fix.

See what it’s like to explore in a way where you’re simply deepening your awareness around what’s at play. You may be surprised at how some simple awareness and curiosity can lead to some untangling, more space, and possibly even a shift in what it is you’re stuck in! Be sure to download The Experiential Guide and to refer back to Ep 2 and 3 to support any deeper inquiries!

How easy is it for you to recognize and express what it is that you’re feeling and which of your needs aren’t being met? Do you find communicating what you’re experiencing to others challenging!? If so, I encourage you to check out this episode! I’m joined by Angela Walkley, a NonViolent Communication assessor and trainer and the two of us dive into a conversation around the art of recognizing feelings and needs, not making assumptions and catching when we’re blaming, judging and in perceived stories and the importance of empathy. Angela shares a recent situation she was navigating to support us in making more sense of the brilliant ways NonViolent Communication can help in times of conflict and where people may have very different experiences at play. As someone who’s only recently been introduced to the NonViolent Communication world, I’m excited to share this conversation with you because this work has helped me take more responsibility for my own experiences and see the bigger picture more clearly!

About the Guest:

Angela dwells in the beauty of needs that arise in herself and between herself and others. She is an Assessor and Trainer with the international Center for NonViolent Communication. She worked for over a decade leading heart-based decision-making related to land and social justice with indigenous, government, industry and environmental organizations. She meets groups in the space that divides them - to help them hear the depth of what matters to them, to express themselves with care and to find a path forward together. In the more recent decade, she has been offering transformational programs for those that are looking to cultivate a personal and global consciousness of openness, inclusion and connection. Angela lives, works, plays and prays on the unceded lands of the Sahtloot, Sasitla, Leeksun and Puntledge people in western Canada.

Once a month I host a "Get Curious" episode where people like you, who are interested in untangling from their patterns, join in to explore with some guidance.

If you’re someone who's feeling constricted, stuck and is always seeking by reading the books, signing up for all the programs, trying out all kinds of different techniques in hopes of things being different, then this episode is for you!

Alongside Beth and Macayla and their willingness to share and explore what it is they’re experiencing and stuck in, you too can bring attention to the language of your physiology, discover where it is that you may be stuck in the threat response cycle, and what might happen when you explore your edges. By the end of the episode you'll have a deeper understanding of, and a greater sense of spaciousness around, the ways in which you survive in life.

In this episode I am joined by some of my clients and program participants to discuss our journey with freeze. We share what it was like to begin to recognize that we were living in freeze and how our explorations and relationship to ourselves and our survival patterns continue to evolve over time. You’ll notice that the common theme is that we’re all still navigating aspects of freeze! The key lies in noticing how we’re feeling towards these ways we’re showing up because this is where we often get caught thinking there’s something wrong with us, we spiral into trying to find the ways to fix and change what’s happening when all that’s doing is creating conflict for our reasons for freezing! The importance lies in learning how to create space and witness ourselves in these experiences while being curious about what’s at the core of it all and what else may become possible.

My hope with this episode is that you gain more of an awareness of your own experience of freeze and the kinds of survival patterns you find yourself in due to having to disconnect, numb, dissociate and shut down. 

I’d love to know what pieces you can relate to in this and what’s helpful! Feel free to share with me on social media.

When it comes to exploring your experiences are you able to differentiate the flavours of self, soul and spirit? What does it mean to you to live as a whole, sovereign being? How can you approach your journey in a nurturing way with warmth and curiosity instead of always trying to fix and figure things out? In this episode I’m joined by Chris Dierkes, someone whose teachings have greatly impacted the way I perceive the human experience, and we cover all of this and more!
