What do you do when you feel unheard…misunderstood…or completely shut down in a conversation that matters? This episode with Rebecca Zung is a game-changer. Because the truth is, most of us were never taught how to navigate high-conflict situations. We either shut down… or we explode. And neither works. In this conversation, we dive into what it actually takes to: Stay regulated when everything feels intense Be heard in conversations where you’ve felt invisible And negotiate from a place of power—not panic Because here’s the shift: It’s not about controlling the other person…It’s about learning how to lead yourself first. And when you do that? Everything changes. This one is for: – The people navigating hard relationships – The ones stuck in conflict at work or at home – And anyone who’s ever thought, “Why can’t I just say what I mean and be understood?” You can. You just need a roadmap. Go listen and take your power back.

What if the people who hurt us are also the people who heal us? In this powerful conversation, Dr. Jody sits down with actor, speaker, community leader, and all-around remarkable human Jesse Lipscombe to talk about empathy, resilience, hope, and what it means to truly see another person. From growing up in a mixed-faith household to navigating racism, parenting, acting, and life in a rapidly changing world, Jesse shares the lessons that have shaped the way he understands humanity and why he refuses to give up on people. Together, Jody and Jesse explore:Why empathy is one of the bravest things we can practiceWhat acting teaches us about human connectionHow relationships can both wound us and heal usWhy play is essential at every ageThe difference between toxic positivity and genuine hopeWhat it means to stay soft in a world that often asks us to harden This episode is a reminder that people are hard to hate up close. That every person is carrying a story we can't see. And that hope isn't something we find, it's something we choose. If you've been feeling discouraged by the state of the world lately, this conversation might be exactly what your heart needs.

If you’ve ever wondered what it really takes to speak up after abuse, this conversation is for you. Dr. Jody Carrington sits down with women’s rights attorney, author, and survivor Alreen Haeggquist for a powerful conversation about childhood abuse, silence, shame, healing, and the life-changing work of finding your voice after trauma. Alreen shares how surviving profound abuse shaped her work advocating for women facing sexual abuse, harassment, and discrimination—and why telling the truth can become part of coming home to yourself. Together, they unpack what trauma-informed law should look like, why survivors are so often misunderstood in legal systems, and how the process of being believed can be healing in and of itself. In this episode, you’ll hear about:Alreen’s journey from surviving abuse to advocating for other womenWhy secrecy can keep trauma alive—and what begins to shift when you speakHow trauma affects memory, storytelling, and credibility in legal spacesWhat a trauma-informed law practice actually does differentlyWhy many survivors speak up first for others—and heal in the process themselvesThe mission behind the HAA Fired Up Foundation A raw, practical, deeply human conversation about trauma, truth, and what becomes possible when women stop carrying it alone. --- Links & Resources:Unlonely with Dr. Jody Carrington: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/unlonely-with-dr-jody-carrington/id1708644669Dr. Jody Carrington: https://www.drjodycarrington.com/Alreen Haeggquist: https://www.alreen.com/Haeggquist & Eck, LLP: https://haelaw.com/ Hosted on Acast.

If you’re walking through a hard season, or love someone who is, this one will stay with you. Dr. Jody Carrington sits down with Chance Toder for an unforgettable conversation about resilience after childhood stroke, medical trauma, and rebuilding a life that looked nothing like the one he expected. Born at 1 pound 15 ounces, Chance survived multiple heart surgeries, went into a coma after a stroke at 11, and had to relearn how to talk, walk, and breathe on his own. But this isn’t just a survival story. It’s a conversation about what happens next: the long rehab, the grief of watching other people move on, the fight for accessibility, the courage to keep asking for a chance, and the kind of family love that holds you together when everything changes. You’ll also hear about Chance’s wheelchair hockey journey, his lawn care business Leave It to Chance, his dream of public speaking, and the mindset that keeps him aiming for anything and everything. In this episode: - Chance’s resilience story after stroke and heart surgery - What recovery really looked like after coma and rehab - The emotional toll of disability, dependence, and delayed independence - Why accessibility matters in everyday life - How sport, work, and speaking gave Chance new purpose - The message he wants every listener to remember: just give people a chance This one is raw, practical, funny in places, and deeply human. --- Links & Resources: • Dr. Jody Carrington: https://www.drjodycarrington.com/ • Unlonely with Dr. Jody Carrington: https://www.drjodycarrington.com/podcast • Dr. Jody Carrington on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drjodycarrington/ • Dr. Jody Carrington Linktree: https://linktr.ee/drjodycarrington • North American VOLT Hockey Tournament / VOLT Hockey Canada: https://varietyontario.ca/event/north-american-volt-hockey-tournament/ • Art for the Heart (Variety Manitoba / historical event reference): https://mayberryfineart.com/blog/96/art-for-the-heart-gallery-media-release-1 Hosted on Acast.

If you’re a parent, partner, helper, or human who feels like you’re holding it all together by a thread, this conversation is for you. Dr. Jody Carrington sits down with Dr. Brooke Weinstein - occupational therapist, nervous system educator, and expert in sensory and emotional regulation - to talk about why so many parents are emotionally dysregulated right now, and what it actually takes to come back to yourself. They unpack the impact of social media, pressure, burnout, and self-neglect on parent mental health, why understanding your own brain and body has to come before trying to “fix” your child, and how nervous system regulation changes the way we show up in our relationships. This is a deeply honest conversation about emotional regulation for parents, single motherhood, partnership, grief, and the slow, brave work of choosing yourself without abandoning the people you love. You’ll hear: - Why modern life keeps parents in a dysregulated state - What occupational therapy sees that many mental health conversations miss - Why self-regulation is the foundation of supporting your kids - How to stop taking a partner’s needs personally - Why caring for yourself is not selfish—it’s necessary - What small, sustainable regulation work actually looks like - Why doing your own work often helps the whole family rise If you’ve ever wondered why you’re so exhausted, reactive, or checked out, and why quick fixes never seem to stick, start here. --- Links & Resources: • Dr. Jody Carrington: https://www.drjodycarrington.com/ • Unlonely with Dr. Jody Carrington: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/unlonely-with-dr-jody-carrington/id1708644669 • Dr. Brooke Weinstein: https://drbrookeweinstein.com/ • Dr. Brooke Weinstein on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/brookeweinst/ • Carrington Practice: https://carringtonpractice.com/ • Dr. Jody Carrington Courses: https://drjodycarrington.teachable.com/ Hosted on Acast.
