This episode is a mind-opening chat with holistic nutritionist and physician consultant Josh Dech. We're diving into the world of gut-brain connection and how our modern lifestyles are messing with our health. Think processed foods, environmental toxins, and a rise in chronic conditions like Crohn’s and colitis — yep, Josh has reversed over 300 cases! He's here to shake up the notion that these conditions are irreversible.

In this episode, we’re peeling back the layers on how gut health isn't just about food. Josh dishes out some vivid analogies (think your body as a bathtub!) and critiques the medical system’s go-to of prescribing meds instead of addressing root causes. We'll chat about the basics — diet, sleep, and stress management — and how they are essential for achieving a balanced life.

Josh and I also explore the critical role of listening to our bodies. We're talking nutrient deficiencies, toxicities, and microbial imbalances, and how tuning into these signals can help recalibrate our health strategies. Plus, we delve into the world of functional and naturopathic medicine for a holistic approach to gut health.

We'll help you navigate the complexities of the gut-brain connection and empower you with actionable insights for lasting wellness. Let’s get into it!

• Modern lifestyle factors, such as processed foods and environmental toxins.
• Reversing chronic gut ailments through diet and lifestyle changes.
• Exploring how gut bacteria influence brain chemistry and the rise of mental health issues.
• Critique of the medical system's reliance on medication, emphasizing diet, sleep, and stress management.
• Importance of listening to the body's signals to identify nutrient deficiencies, toxicities, and microbial imbalances.

“I’m such a horrible person.”

“I can’t believe I did that…I’m so stupid.”

“I’m not good enough.”

Do these types of thoughts sound familiar? If so, you’re not alone.

As humans, we can be so mean to ourselves. We make a mistake and beat ourselves up for hours. We look in the mirror and are met with a barrage of negative self-talk. Sometimes these thoughts come at us relentlessly, like a flood.

But these thoughts are not the truth about who we are. They come from an inner part or voice inside of us that is actually trying to keep us safe. 

And when we have the tools to work with these parts of self, we can stop these critical and ruminating thoughts in their tracks – and transform so many of the struggles that come with them, like depression, low self-worth and overwhelm.

In this episode, I’m sharing the story of a friend who came to me for help with critical thoughts that she couldn’t shake. I walk you step-by-step through the parts work method I used with her and the process she went through that stopped those thoughts almost instantly. 

Then, I explain why parts work is so powerful, how it works in our unconscious mind and exactly how you can use it to work with your own critical parts – or any other part of yourself for that matter! 

Listen to discover:

• How to stop ruminating and negative self-talk in its tracks
• The process I used with a friend to help her quiet her critical, ruminating thoughts
• My own experience using parts work to transform a ruminating thought I was having
• How to use parts work to transform any part of yourself
• A step-by-step parts work process you can use anytime, anywhere

The amazing thing about parts work is that you don’t have to spend years working with a part or even be in a coaching or therapy session to do this work. My friend’s transformation happened during a casual conversation we had after work. And as I share in this episode, I use parts work when I’m out for a walk or in the middle of the day. This is an empowering tool we ALL need in our toolbox! 

At the heart of parts work is giving ourselves what we needed but didn’t get when we were young. As a healthy adult, you now get to be that strong, caring adult for your younger self – and when you do, you will be amazed at the deep inner healing that takes place.

“I started doing parts work when I was 30 years old, and I changed my life.” - Michelle Chalfant

“Not everybody’s visual, so please don’t think there’s something wrong if you [don’t visualize a part].” - Michelle Chalfant

“I always thank these parts because they are doing such a good job at keeping me safe.” - Michelle Chalfant

“This is what I love about the unconscious mind…they pull things out of left field.” - Michelle Chalfant

“When you are hearing these voices in your head, the ruminating thoughts, the beating up on self…start asking yourself this question: ‘Who is saying that?’” - Michelle Chalfant

“I really think you are going to be amazed at the different parts of yourself that you will start to discover.” - Michelle Chalfant

“This is how we really experience more of who we are, and this is the journey we are on in order to rediscover and live from our true self.” - Michelle Chalfant

You’re here today, doing the work, living from your Adult Chair, becoming who you want to become. 

It feels really good. But as we live and grow and transform, it can sometimes bring up negative feelings about our past.

Whether we made mistakes, missed opportunities, were hurt by someone or experienced a life-altering loss, every one of us has something about our past we wish we could change.

Regret can cut deep – into our very souls – and bring a lot of pain, shame and blame with it. 

But whenever we live in regret, it causes us to miss another opportunity: the chance to make the most of the moment we have right now. 

In this show, I’m giving you three common reasons we get stuck in the past and six ways to make peace with your past and start living in the present moment. 

You will gain a new perspective on your past and learn to reframe it so you can rewire your brain to live without regret.

Listen to discover:

• 3 reasons we get stuck in the past (and what to do about them)
• Why living in present reality is so much better than past reality
• How to reframe how you think about your past
• 6 ways to make peace with your past

Remember, today will soon become your past. Will you look back and wish you hadn’t spent it stuck in regret? Or will you make the most of the moment and use the power you have right now to be who you want to be today?

The present moment is such a powerful reality to live in.

It's here that we find peace and joy. It’s here that we have the ability to make this moment one we won't regret.

“The decision that we made in that moment, I don’t care how old you were…the person that we were in that moment, we were showing up the very, very best that we could.” - Michelle Chalfant

“97% of the time, our assumptions are incorrect.” - Michelle Chalfant

“Things that happened in our past, no matter if it’s a death or someone has done something to us or we made mistakes, it can be difficult to move on, but it’s possible.” - Michelle Chalfant

“When we live in the moment, it’s a much different reality. It’s almost as if the world opens up.” - Michelle Chalfant 

“Living in the past is like having an anchor tied around our waist trying to move forward.” - Michelle Chalfant 

“What I’m giving you today are ways to move you forward into the moment.” - Michelle Chalfant 

“When we don’t feel our emotions around something, guess what? It keeps us stuck.” - Michelle Chalfant 

“When we block our emotions, we’re blocking ourselves.” - Michelle Chalfant 

“Forgiveness releases the hold that the past has on you.” - Michelle Chalfant 

“When we get in the habit of going back and beating up on ourselves or being mad about someone else…what we do is we form these neural pathways, and they are not healthy. It’s like we set the roadmap in our brains to go back and beat up on self.” - Michelle Chalfant

In this episode, we’re exploring the world of high-functioning codependency with our guest, Terri Cole. This isn't your typical chat about codependency; Terri's giving it a fresh spin, especially for those of us who juggle a million things and still find time to care a little too much about everyone else's problems.

Terri breaks down how high-functioning codependents — often the go-getters and perfectionists among us — end up sacrificing their own well-being. Sound familiar? We get into the nitty-gritty of societal norms, early family expectations, and how these can set the stage for burnout. But luckily, Terri has strategies to help us break free from these patterns and set healthy boundaries.

Terri shares how to foster real connections without feeling like you have to manage everyone else's life. If you’re ready to transform your relationships and reclaim your personal freedom, you won’t want to miss this chat. 

• The origins and societal pressures contributing to high-functioning codependency.
• Strategies for overcoming self-abandonment and shifting from external validation to internal peace.
• The importance of setting boundaries and recognizing unhealthy patterns in relationships.
• The difference between guilt and shame and the impact of societal upbringing on codependency.
• Resources for fostering genuine connections and achieving personal freedom.
