Look Up!

We live in a world that constantly asks us to look down—at screens, notifications, and to-do lists. And yet, despite being more “connected” than ever, many of us feel profoundly alone.

In this episode, Karey Harris sits down with psychologist and author Dr. Jody Carrington to explore how we can reclaim genuine human connection. They discuss the loneliness epidemic, the decline of eye contact, and why self-care is essential—not selfish—for serving others.

Dr. Carrington shares practical strategies to regulate your nervous system, stay present, and practice kindness in daily life. From small acts of connection to her “Go In / Go Out” framework, this conversation is a roadmap for reconnecting with yourself and those around you.

If you’re a leader, parent, educator, or human feeling stretched thin, this episode invites you to look up, slow down, and return to what truly matters.

Wheat Fields, Wisdom & Whiskey is your space for honest, grounded conversations that empower you to lead with presence, kindness, and purpose.

The most powerful woman in the room is not the loudest.
 She is not the busiest.
 She is not the most reactive or the one who has to have the first word.

She is the most regulated.

In this solo episode of Wheat Fields, Wisdom & Whiskey, we explore the leadership skill no one taught us — nervous system regulation as power.

In a culture that celebrates adrenaline, hustle, and burnout, many high-achieving women are leading from survival mode and calling it ambition. But true influence does not come from intensity. It comes from sovereignty.

In this episode, we unpack:

• Why high-performing women often operate from fight-or-flight
 • The subtle ways dysregulation shows up in leadership and relationships
 • Why regulation is not softness — it is mastery
 • The difference between suppression and emotional authority
 • How steady presence shifts rooms, teams, and families
 • The concept of “crown energy” and embodied leadership

Regulation is not about becoming calm.
 It’s about becoming powerful without chaos.

If you’ve ever felt burnt out, reactive, or stuck in overdrive — this episode will help you shift from survival to sovereignty.

Regulated women don’t shrink.
 They choose when to roar.

And when women become steady, the world changes.

Shine in the light.
 In Lumine Luce.

In this episode of Wheat Fields, Wisdom & Whiskey, we explore the difference between narcissistic traits and Narcissistic Personality Disorder — and why this distinction matters in understanding behavior, trauma, and personal growth.

My guest is Paul Noiles — trauma and addiction specialist, author of Mistaken Identity, and founder of the Mistaken Identity Model. With over 20 years of experience in trauma recovery, Paul guides us through the ways early childhood experiences can create a mistaken identity, leading to coping mechanisms like codependency, addiction, or self-sabotaging patterns.

Together, we dive deep into:

• Understanding narcissistic traits versus disorder
• How trauma shapes identity and behavior
• The Mistaken Identity Model and pathways to healing
• Practical ways to reclaim your authentic self

Whether you’re curious about healing relationships, understanding yourself, or exploring the roots of human behavior, this conversation offers compassion, insight, and actionable awareness

Stay grounded, stay aware, and keep seeking the truth of who you are.

Some conversations change how you see the world — and how you move through it.

In this powerful and deeply human episode, Sandra LaRose shares the story no mother ever expects to tell: life after losing her daughter, Kailynn. With honesty, grace, and remarkable strength, Sandra speaks about how a ten-second glance away from the road can change a life forever — not in theory, but in reality.

Rather than letting tragedy define the end of her story, Sandra has chosen to keep Kailynn’s spirit alive through education, advocacy, and love. She shares why she continues to speak, how she honors her daughter on her angelversary, and how organ donation became part of Kailynn’s lasting legacy.

This episode isn’t about fear — it’s about choice.
 It’s about awareness.
 It’s about the fragile, precious nature of life and the decisions we make every day.

Listen with an open heart. This conversation will stay with you — especially the next time you get behind the wheel.

There were moments in this episode where words felt unnecessary — Sandra carried the story with courage, honesty, and heart. This conversation gently but powerfully shifts perspective, reminding us that life is fragile, choices matter, and love endures.

If you want a tomorrow, you have to make the right decision today.

 Stop waiting for the right moment — the version of you that changes everything is already here. In this episode of Wheat Fields, Wisdom & Whiskey, I explore why identity drives real change, why action precedes clarity, and how to step fully into your power. Featuring personal stories, expert insights, and a declaration to help you move like the woman you were meant to become. 

You’ll hear personal moments from my own journey, expert insights on behavior and self-efficacy, and a powerful declaration moment designed to help you step fully into the version of yourself that commands your life.

If you’ve ever felt stuck, hesitant, or afraid to step into your power, this episode will challenge you, inspire you, and leave you with a practical call to action: stop waiting. Become her now.

Key Takeaways:

1. Real change starts with deciding who you’re no longer willing to be.
2. Identity, not motivation, is what drives lasting results — James Clear: “True behavior change is identity change. You might start a habit because of motivation, but the only reason you’ll stick with one is that it becomes part of who you are.”
3. “Reasonable” often keeps you safe — but unfulfilled.
4. Confidence grows through action, not waiting — self-efficacy research supports this.
5. Powerful personal and verbal declarations anchor change immediately. Resources: 

* James Clear on Habits & Identity: https://jamesclear.com/identity-based-habits
* Learn more about self-efficacy: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-efficacy

 If this episode inspired you, share it with someone who needs to hear it, subscribe to the podcast, and write down your declaration from the episode. Step fully into the version of yourself that’s waiting — the one who changes everything.
