In this heartfelt and eye-opening coaching session, Christine Hassler supports Darletha as she bravely opens up about her struggles with intimacy, abandonment, and the fear of emotional vulnerability. Despite years of personal growth, therapy, and conscious dating efforts, Darletha finds herself in a recurring pattern of attracting men who aren't aligned with her values—and pushing them away when things get too close. Christine guides Darletha to explore the deeper emotional roots of her relationship dynamics, including childhood wounds, generational trauma, and the nervous system's response to perceived threats in intimacy. Together, they highlight the difference between discernment and sabotage, and how inner child healing can shift these long-held patterns. This episode is a must-listen for anyone who feels frustrated with their dating experiences, struggles with emotional closeness, or feels misunderstood by their own protective patterns.   Consider/Ask Yourself: Do you find yourself attracting partners who aren't quite right, then pushing them away? Are you hyper-aware of red flags to the point that it blocks connection? Can you tell the difference between discernment and emotional avoidance? Are you willing to explore how your nervous system and inner child might be influencing your relationship patterns?   Key Insights and A-HAs: Pushing people away can be a protective response, not a personal flaw. Childhood experiences of abandonment can lead to subconscious avoidance of intimacy. Discernment is not the same as fear—knowing the difference is key. Emotional safety begins within the self, not through control over others. True healing comes through compassion, vulnerability, and nervous system regulation.   How to Get Over It & On With It: Practice tuning into your body instead of staying in your head during dates or emotionally triggering moments. Acknowledge and soothe the inner child when feelings of rejection or abandonment arise. Let go of hyper-vigilance and perfectionism; focus instead on how you feel around a person, not just how they perform. Redefine vulnerability as strength, not weakness—it's the gateway to authentic connection. Surround yourself with safe containers and communities (like Be the Queen) to reinforce new relational patterns.   Social Media + Resources:  Christine Hassler — Take a Coaching Assessment Christine Hassler Podcasts Including Coaches Corner Christine on Facebook Expectation Hangover by Christine Hassler @ChristineHassler on Twitter @ChristineHassler on Instagram @SacredUnionCouples on Instagram Email: jill@christinehassler.com — For information on any of my services!

In this insightful coaching session, Christine works with Karin, who has repeatedly found herself in cycles of earning and losing money, leading to a persistent struggle and anxiety around finances. Karin shares her experiences of attempting various methods—from manifesting practices to lifestyle adjustments—to improve her financial stability, yet continually finds herself back in scarcity. Christine helps Karin uncover deep-seated generational patterns and subconscious beliefs around money that perpetuate this cycle. They discuss the nervous system's role in financial stability and how chronic anxiety and fear can block abundance, even when consciously pursuing financial goals. Listeners will gain a deeper understanding of how past familial beliefs, generational trauma, and nervous system dysregulation can influence their current relationship with money. Christine provides tangible insights into shifting from scarcity and struggle toward a more grounded, regulated, and abundant state. Consider/Ask Yourself: Do you notice patterns of gaining and losing money repeatedly in your life? Are you constantly anxious about your financial situation, even if things momentarily improve? Can you see any generational patterns in your family around money and struggle? Would you like to shift from feeling overwhelmed and fearful about money to feeling calm and abundant? Key Insights and A-HAs: Financial stability is closely tied to nervous system regulation. Generational patterns deeply impact our subconscious relationship with money. Fear and anxiety about money can create blocks to consistent financial abundance. It's essential to consciously decide to break cycles of financial struggle. Cultivating a regulated nervous system can significantly shift your relationship with money. How to Get Over It & On With It: Identify and acknowledge your underlying fears and anxieties around money. Work actively to regulate your nervous system before engaging in financial tasks or conversations. Clearly define your financial desires without minimizing or compromising. Decide consciously to break generational patterns of financial struggle and scarcity. Practice daily habits that reinforce a regulated nervous system state, promoting calm and abundance.

In this inspiring and heartfelt coaching session, Christine works with Sarah, who is navigating life after the dissolution of a 20-year marriage. While Sarah has processed much of her grief and feels more grounded, she finds herself in an in-between space—caught between who she was in the relationship and the new version of herself that she is becoming. Christine helps Sarah explore the deeper roots of her feelings of being held back, which stem from earlier life experiences where she felt disempowered. Through their conversation, they discuss the challenges of moving forward when parts of your old life still linger, and how to embrace your growth without slipping back into past patterns. Listeners will learn how to acknowledge and honor their own progress, release the need to please others, and fully step into their new life. This episode encourages listeners to choose themselves, embrace their own story, and trust that moving forward—while uncomfortable at times—is worth it.   Consider/Ask Yourself: Are you feeling stuck between your past and your future? Do you tend to hold back because you fear upsetting others? Are you fully acknowledging your own progress, or are you still telling yourself an old story? Can you trust that your choices, even if they come with loss, are the best ones for your growth?   Key Insights and A-HAs: Holding back can feel familiar, but it doesn't serve your growth. Grief can come in waves, even after you think you've moved on. Choosing yourself may mean letting go of old relationships, and that's okay. You don't have to wait for external validation to step into your new story. Acknowledging your growth is essential to moving forward.   How to Get Over It & On With It: Identify the ways you are holding back and consciously choose to move forward. Allow yourself to feel the grief of letting go without letting it hold you back. Practice trusting your choices and recognize your progress without minimizing it. Find your support network and let them remind you of your growth when self-doubt creeps in.   Social Media + Resources: Christine Hassler — Take a Coaching Assessment Christine Hassler Podcasts Including Coaches Corner Christine on Facebook Expectation Hangover by Christine Hassler @ChristineHassler on Twitter @ChristineHassler on Instagram @SacredUnionCouples on Instagram Email: jill@christinehassler.com — For information on any of my services!

In this honest and empowering coaching session, Christine works with Elena, who is navigating the emotional aftermath of ending a seven-year relationship. Although the breakup initially seemed mutual, deeper fears have surfaced—particularly around abandonment, self-worth, and what it means to be alone. Christine helps Elena explore the deeper roots of these fears, which stem from unresolved childhood trauma and modeled behavior from her mother. This episode addresses why we often stay in relationships that aren't healthy, the difference between true forgiveness and repression, and how to break free from generational patterns. Through this conversation, listeners will learn how to embrace solitude, process anger in a healthy way, and find strength in standing firm in their boundaries. If you've ever questioned whether you were too hard on someone, or feared walking away even when you knew it was the right choice, this episode is for you.   Consider/Ask Yourself: Have you ever stayed in a relationship because you were afraid of being alone? Do you struggle with repeating family or generational patterns in your relationships? Are you confusing forgiveness with repression? Do you feel like you're settling for less than you deserve because it feels safer than the unknown?   Key Insights and A-HAs: Being alone in a relationship can feel lonelier than being on your own. Anger, when unexpressed, can turn into anxiety or self-betrayal. Repeating generational patterns is common, but with awareness and action, they can be broken. True healing requires both reparenting yourself and creating new internal belief systems. Boundaries are an act of self-love and are essential to change long-standing relational habits.   How to Get Over It & On With It: Embrace solitude as a form of strength, not weakness. Practice anger release through safe outlets such as movement or journaling. Acknowledge generational influences without letting them define your future. Reframe thoughts that tempt you to return to unhealthy dynamics. Ask yourself, “Is this my voice, or my programming?” Visualize the kind of parent, partner, or person you want to be, and make choices in alignment with that vision.   Social Media + Resources: Christine Hassler — Take a Coaching Assessment Christine Hassler Podcasts Including Coaches Corner Christine on Facebook  Expectation Hangover by Christine Hassler @ChristineHassler on Twitter @ChristineHassler on Instagram @SacredUnionCouples on Instagram Email: jill@christinehassler.com — For information on any of my services!

With the recent eclipse, equinox, planets in retrograde and schumann resonance activity, a lot of us are feeling pretty crappy! In this episode I share some tips for staying grounded and nourishing yourself during this time.

In this deeply personal and transformative episode, Christine Hassler coaches Sara through the difficult journey of self-forgiveness. Many of us have experienced the weight of regret—dwelling on decisions we wish we had made differently and struggling to let go of the past. This episode offers a path toward healing, self-acceptance, and true forgiveness. Christine helps Sara navigate the emotions of guilt, self-judgment, and the pressure to "fix" herself, while also uncovering the deeper wounds that have shaped her self-worth. Together, they explore the impact of childhood conditioning, the importance of self-compassion, and how to break free from patterns of self-criticism. This coaching session is a powerful reminder that we are not defined by our mistakes and that true self-love means embracing all parts of ourselves—even the ones we struggle to accept.   Consider/Ask Yourself: Are you holding onto self-judgment for something you've done? Do you find it easier to forgive others than to forgive yourself? Have you ever attached your self-worth to external validation, such as your appearance or achievements? Are you ready to let go of shame, guilt, and regret, and embrace self-compassion instead?   Key Insights and A-HAs: Many of the “mistakes” we regret are actually opportunities for growth. Forgiveness is not about condoning what happened, but about freeing yourself from self-punishment. Our childhood experiences shape our self-image—but we have the power to rewrite our story. True healing begins with self-compassion, not self-criticism. We can learn to see ourselves beyond the surface and appreciate our true, authentic essence.   How to Get Over It & On With It: Reframe your perception—instead of seeing your actions as "mistakes," view them as learning experiences. Practice self-mothering—speak to yourself with the same love and gentleness you would offer a child. Challenge self-judgment—when you hear your inner critic, ask, “Would I say this to a friend?” Shift your focus from past regret to future growth—each day is a chance to choose self-compassion.   Special Thanks to Our Sponsor: Enviro Air & Water If you live in the Greater Austin or San Antonio area, you deserve clean, high-quality water for your home and business.

In this insightful coaching session, Christine Hassler helps Venus navigate deep emotional wounds related to past relationships. Venus struggles with feelings of being replaced and not being chosen, which stem from childhood neglect, abuse, and enmeshment. She finds herself caught in patterns of comparison and pain over an ex possibly moving on with someone else. Together, Christine and Venus unpack these core wounds, working toward reclaiming empowerment, self-worth, and emotional sovereignty. This episode is for anyone who has ever felt stuck in the past, struggled with self-worth after a breakup, or wants to heal old relationship wounds at the root level.   Consider/Ask Yourself: Are you still emotionally attached to an ex, even though you know you were incompatible? Do you struggle with feelings of being replaced or not chosen? Have childhood wounds influenced your relationships, making love feel like dependency or codependency? Are you trying to “pray away” pain instead of working through it? How can you shift from a fear-based desire for validation to true self-empowerment?   Key Insights and A-HAs: The pain of feeling replaced often stems from deeper childhood wounds of neglect or not being chosen. Healing is a process that requires presence, patience, and self-compassion—there's no quick fix. Breaking patterns of comparison and self-judgment is crucial for self-empowerment. Taking up space, moving energy through the body, and developing personal sovereignty help break cycles of emotional pain. The shift from being disempowered to reclaiming choice is the core of deep healing.   How to Get Over It & On With It: Recognize disempowering thought patterns and actively redirect them. Use empowering language—instead of asking, “Why did this happen to me?” reframe it as, “What am I choosing at this moment?” Engage in movement and expression—dance, sing, walk, or scream into a pillow to release stored emotional energy. Practice self-acknowledgement—celebrate progress rather than focusing on how far you still need to go. Trust the process—deep healing doesn't happen overnight, but consistent efforts make a lasting impact.   Social Media + Resources: Christine Hassler — Take a Coaching Assessment Christine Hassler Podcasts Including Coaches Corner Christine on Facebook Expectation Hangover by Christine Hassler @ChristineHassler on Twitter @ChristineHassler on Instagram @SacredUnionCouples on Instagram Email: jill@christinehassler.com — For information on any of my services!

In this week's episode, Christine Hassler revisits the very first episode of Over It and On With It, taking us back to where it all began. As we move through a new moon in Pisces, a time of fresh starts, Christine invites us to reflect on our own new beginnings. She shares her journey of launching this podcast despite doubts and external discouragement, offering a powerful reminder to trust our intuition—even when things don't make sense on the surface. Whether you're embarking on something new, re-evaluating your values during this Venus retrograde, or simply looking for inspiration to take that next step, this episode will remind you of the courage it takes to begin again. Christine also reflects on the deeper process of reprogramming our beliefs, navigating fear, and aligning with our truth.   Consider/Ask Yourself: Are you on the brink of a fresh start but feeling hesitant? Have you ever ignored your intuition because of fear or external doubts? Do you struggle with letting go of old expectations in order to create something new? Are you craving more clarity about what truly matters to you?   Key Insights and A-HAs: New beginnings often come with doubt, but trusting yourself is key. External discouragement doesn't mean your idea isn't valid—it just means it's different. Reprogramming your mindset can be challenging, but it's necessary for transformation. True alignment happens when we clear out fear-based decisions and follow what feels right. Growth isn't about having all the answers—it's about taking the next step in faith.   How to Get Over It & On With It: Reflect on where you're being called to start fresh, even if it doesn't make perfect sense. Identify areas where fear or external opinions are holding you back. Give yourself permission to re-evaluate your values and what truly drives you. Embrace the discomfort of growth—sometimes the hardest part is just taking that first step. Surround yourself with supportive voices that remind you of your power and potential.     Social Media + Resources: Christine Hassler — Take a Coaching Assessment Christine Hassler Podcasts Including Coaches Corner Christine on Facebook Expectation Hangover by Christine Hassler @ChristineHassler on Twitter @ChristineHassler on Instagram @SacredUnionCouples on Instagram Email: jill@christinehassler.com — For information on any of my services!

In this episode Christine dives into how the belonging wound happens and why it feels so big and hard to overcome. If you ever feel alone, left out, not included, or separate, this episode is for you. Learn how you can work with this wound and start creating the connections that you want and need. 

This coaching call is about feeling out of control when being in control is how we have compensated for not getting what we needed as children. Today's caller, Cato, is pregnant and her lack of control is creating panic. She asks Christine for guidance on how to be okay with the changes in her life and her fear of feeling insignificant.   As children, we need to belong. We need love. And we need to feel safe. So, whatever we need to do and whoever we need to become to get those things, we do. The need for significance comes from not feeling enough as a child, not feeling significant just for who we are. So as an adult, we are constantly looking for people to see us, love us, and tell us how wonderful we are because that need was not fulfilled in childhood. Either we weren't told we were good or we only were told we were good when we did something “good.”   Something important for people to talk about is that — Yes, having a baby is blissful and magical AND it can be really hard at times. There are times when the hard times are more than the amazing times and that's okay. It is an identity death like no other and there's no way around that.   The more we resist it and try to hang on to who we were or to keep that version of us, the more we are going to bump up against resistance. Because when we get pregnant and when we give birth, the old version of us dies and the maiden becomes the mother. We have to find our new identity at the same time that we are learning to care for another human being. It's a lot.   Consider/Ask Yourself: Do you like control? Does it make you feel calm and safe? Do you consider yourself a capable, on-top-of-it person but something has completely thrown you off your game? Do you fear not being relevant or not being significant? Do you know how to receive, or do you believe that you must do to receive and be relevant?   Cato's Question: Cato fears that her pregnancy will make her irrelevant and insignificant. She is asking for guidance on how to be okay with herself and what is happening.   Cato's Key Insights and Ahas: She is excited about her pregnancy. Her pregnancy is forcing her to slow down. She signed up for Elementum Coaching Institute. Her pregnancy is bringing up depression and feelings of a lack of control. She is experiencing intense emotions and is unsure of herself for the first time. She realizes she has been using control to create safety. She fears slowing down and not being relevant or significant. Her inner child carries sadness and anger toward her father. She is unsure if she is worthy of raising her child. She is embodying receptivity. She feels closer to her womb and her heart. She has always kept busy to distract herself from her feelings. When she slows down, she feels restless. She finds purpose and meaning in her work.   How to Get Over It and On With It: Welcome the new feelings she is having. Listen to this episode when it airs. Embody what it feels like to be in her feminine. Be curious about her restlessness. Savor her pregnancy.   Resources: Christine Hassler — Take a Coaching Assessment Christine Hassler Podcasts Including Coaches Corner Christine on Facebook Expectation Hangover, by Christine Hassler @ChristinHassler on Twitter @ChristineHassler on Instagram @SacredUnionCouples on Instagram Assist@ChristineHassler.com Jill@ChristineHassler.com — For information on any of my services Get on the Waitlist to be coached on the show.

Today on CC we talk about something that completely shifted my perspective on health and fitness. For years, we've been told that the goal is to lose weight—shrink down, take up less space. But the truth is, focusing on the scale might be the biggest mistake when it comes to long-term health and strength. What really matters isn't weight—it's body composition. It's about having more muscle and less excess fat because that's what keeps you strong, energized, and capable as you age. My friend Holly Perkins has been helping women transform their bodies and health for 30 years, and she's hosting a free three-day workshop called Mastering Your Body Composition. It's all about shifting the focus from weight loss to building the kind of body that supports you for life. If you've been frustrated with the usual fitness advice and want real, lasting results, I highly recommend this. The workshop starts on March 6th, and it's free to join.

In this week's coaching session, Christine Hassler works with Yasmin, who is struggling with self-doubt when it comes to making life decisions. She questions whether she made the right choice in ending a long-term relationship and in reducing her work hours to pursue her art business. Christine helps her recognize patterns of over-personalization, self-blame, and the need for external validation, guiding her toward self-trust and clarity. This episode isn't just about relationships or career—it's about learning to trust yourself and your decisions. Christine provides Yasmin with tangible ways to move forward with confidence, helping her step out of regret and into alignment with her true desires.   Consider/Ask Yourself: Do you often doubt your choices and later regret them? Are you afraid that the things you truly want won't happen? Do you constantly search for external validation before feeling secure in a decision? Are you stuck between moving forward and holding onto the past? Do you make choices based on what feels familiar rather than what's truly aligned?   Key Insights and A-HAs: Self-trust is essential—without it, fear and doubt take over, making decisions more difficult. Over-personalizing situations, such as a partner's actions after a breakup, can create unnecessary emotional weight. When we regret past choices, we often idealize the past and forget why we made those decisions in the first place. Healing and growth require stepping into new territory instead of clinging to familiar patterns. Success in career or relationships comes from embodying confidence, not waiting for external proof.   How to Get Over It & On With It: Identify your inner dialogue and challenge the stories you tell yourself about regret and self-worth. Shift from fear-based decision-making to trust-based choices by recognizing what aligns with your long-term vision. Take action despite uncertainty—trust that the right opportunities will emerge when you fully commit. Engage in daily practices that reinforce confidence, such as journaling about past decisions and affirming your own wisdom. Stop looking for guarantees—life doesn't provide them, but trust and discernment can guide you to the best outcome.   Social Media + Resources:  Christine Hassler — Take a Coaching Assessment Christine Hassler Podcasts Including Coaches Corner Christine on Facebook Expectation Hangover by Christine Hassler @ChristineHassler on Twitter @ChristineHassler on Instagram @SacredUnionCouples on Instagram Email: jill@christinehassler.com — For information on any of my services!

In this week's coaching session, Christine Hassler works with Ashlee, who is struggling with a question many people face: how do you know if you're healed enough to enter a relationship? Ashlee shares her experiences with past relationships, childhood wounds, and codependent tendencies that have shaped her fears about choosing the right partner. This episode isn't just about dating—it's about learning to trust yourself and shifting from fear-based decision-making to a place of wisdom and self-awareness. Christine helps Ashlee identify where her fear is coming from, how to recognize patterns, and what it really means to be ready for a relationship.   Consider/Ask Yourself: Have you been in relationships where you felt like you were “dating your wounds” instead of a truly compatible partner? Do you ever question whether you're healed enough to be in a relationship? Are you struggling to trust yourself when it comes to picking the right partner? Do you find yourself looking for unconditional love in a romantic relationship—something you may not have received in childhood? Are you allowing your inner child to do the picking in relationships rather than your wise, adult self?   Key Insights and A-HAs: Healing is a lifelong process, and relationships will always bring opportunities for growth. It's important to recognize whether you are attracting a partner from a place of neediness and past wounds or from a place of confidence and self-trust. Codependent tendencies, such as trying to fix or save a partner, often stem from unmet childhood needs. Trusting yourself is essential to creating a healthy relationship—without self-trust, fear takes over. A partner cannot replace or compensate for the unconditional love you may have lacked in childhood—healthy relationships require personal responsibility for healing.   How to Get Over It & On With It: Identify your inner child's unmet needs and recognize how they might be showing up in your dating patterns. Shift from fear-based decision-making to trust-based dating—stop selecting partners based on what feels familiar (even if it's unhealthy) and focus on what aligns with your vision of a secure relationship. Heal before seeking healing from others—a healthy relationship can be supportive, but it should not be a substitute for deep personal work. Create clear relationship values—write out what a healthy, mature, and non-codependent relationship looks like. Reframe your relationship expectations—instead of expecting a partner to “fix” or “heal” you, seek someone who supports your journey while maintaining a strong sense of self.   Upcoming Event: Love Magnet Workshop If you're looking to attract love from a place of wholeness, Christine's free three-day “Love Magnet Workshop” is happening now. It's not too late to join. Sign up at christinehassler.com/lovemagnet. Upcoming Retreat: March 2024 Christine and Stefanos will be hosting a transformational retreat at The Art of Living Center.

Meet my coach, Kate Kripke.  She is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and a Perinatal Mental Health Counselor (PMH-C) based in Colorado. For over two decades, she's assisted mothers navigating transitional phases in their lives. She founded the Postpartum Wellness Center of Boulder in 2007, which is now known as the Parent and Family Wellness Center. Until recently when she passed directorship along to its new owners, she acted as its Founding Director and Senior Psychotherapist. Kate offers maternal mental health and wellness support to women both nationally and internationally through coaching and consultancy. Her aim is to empower women to feel confident, well-supported, and reassured about both their own and their children's well-being so they can raise healthy children while also serving their communities outside of motherhood. Kate guides women in creating healthy and secure relationships with themselves, their children, and their work.

In this heartfelt coaching session, Christine Hassler guides Morgan through an emotional crossroads: deciding whether to have another child. While Morgan has always envisioned a big family, fear stemming from a traumatic birth experience, postpartum depression, and complex family dynamics with her stepchildren has left her feeling uncertain. This episode isn't just about parenthood—it's about the power of making choices from faith rather than fear. Christine helps Morgan shift from fear-based decision-making to a place of trust and possibility, offering insights that apply to anyone struggling with a big life decision.   Consider/Ask Yourself: Are you facing a big decision but feel paralyzed by fear? Do past traumas or difficult experiences influence your choices for the future? Are you struggling with control and wanting certainty before making a move? Do you tend to focus on the worst-case scenario instead of what's truly possible?   Key Insights and A-HAs: Fear-based decision-making limits our ability to embrace possibility and growth. Our past does not have to dictate our future—we can learn from it instead of reliving it. True empowerment comes from trusting that no matter what, we will be okay. The need for control often stems from deeper fears, such as avoiding past pain or protecting loved ones. Building a strong support system can help ease anxiety around major life transitions.   How to Get Over It & On With It: Reframe your decision-making process by focusing on faith and trust rather than fear. Acknowledge that uncertainty is a natural part of life and doesn't mean disaster. Build a solid support system (mentors, therapists, partners) to help guide you through transitions. Recognize that sometimes the answer is “I don't know yet,” and that's okay. Approach decisions from a place of curiosity, possibility, and inner wisdom rather than fear-based projections.   Special Invitation: The Love Magnet Workshop If you're looking to attract love into your life, join Christine for her free three-day workshop, Love Magnet, happening February 11-13 at 2 PM Pacific.

In this heartfelt and insightful episode, Christine Hassler coaches Julie through the challenges of navigating life's "in-between" phases. Julie opens up about being in a transitional period, torn between trusting the natural flow of life and taking control to make things happen. This episode explores the delicate balance of surrender and action, and the deep fears and patterns that arise when we're on the brink of transformation. Christine compassionately helps Julie unpack the subconscious blocks that come from past traumas, including a sudden divorce and a harrowing school shooting her daughter experienced. Together, they dive into Julie's duality of being a grounded doer and a deeply spiritual being, providing insights on how to integrate these parts of herself to move forward with trust and healing. This coaching session is a powerful reminder that embracing uncertainty and facing our fears can lead to profound growth, and the ability to welcome love and connection into our lives. Consider/Ask Yourself: Are you in an in-between phase, feeling torn between trusting the process and taking control? Do you struggle with the fear of losing love or experiencing vulnerability? Are past traumas or unresolved grief impacting your ability to fully embrace the present? What steps can you take to regulate your nervous system and allow love and trust to flow? Key Insights and A-HAs: Life's transitions often bring up subconscious fears and protective patterns. True surrender and trust involve releasing attachment to specific outcomes and opening to possibilities. Grief and trauma, when unaddressed, can create blocks to receiving love and connection. Learning to regulate your nervous system and embody trust is key to welcoming new opportunities. How to Get Over It & On With It: Recognize and release unresolved grief or trauma through somatic or emotional healing practices. Practice nervous system regulation techniques, such as compassionate self-talk and mindfulness. Visualize and embody the feelings you desire in your future relationships. Create space for love by embracing vulnerability and letting go of hyper-vigilance.

In this heartfelt and transformative episode, Christine Hassler coaches Aubrea, who opens up about facing significant life challenges all at once. Aubrea shares her journey of navigating a job loss, the end of a long-term relationship, fertility struggles, and the passing of her last grandparent—all within a short period. These events have left her feeling untethered and engulfed by grief and anger. Christine compassionately guides Aubrea through the concept of an "expectation hangover," exploring how life's curveballs can be opportunities for deeper healing and growth. Together, they unpack the roots of Aubrea's prolonged anger, her relationship with it, and the role it plays in her journey toward self-discovery and emotional release. This coaching call is a powerful reminder that even in our darkest moments, there is potential for transformation. Christine provides practical tools and spiritual insights to help Aubrea—and listeners—embrace their pain, release limiting beliefs, and move toward a more empowered and aligned life.   Consider/Ask Yourself: Are you experiencing an expectation hangover—where things haven't gone as planned, or life has hit you with a massive curveball? Are you holding onto anger or grief that feels overwhelming or unfamiliar? Do you struggle to find meaning or purpose during challenging times? Are you ready to explore the deeper healing opportunities hidden within your struggles?   Key Insights and A-HAs: Life's unexpected challenges often create space for deeper healing and alignment with our soul's evolution. Anger and grief, when acknowledged and expressed, can be catalysts for transformation and emotional release. Subconscious patterns often draw us into experiences that mirror unresolved childhood wounds, offering an opportunity to heal and grow. Finding meaning in the midst of chaos can provide a sense of peace and direction, but it requires patience and self-compassion.   How to Get Over It & On With It: Allow yourself to fully feel your emotions, including anger and rage, without judgment or blame. Explore the role that childhood patterns or relationships may play in current struggles, while avoiding self-blame. Create a sense of certainty by focusing on small, grounding practices and routines in your daily life. Trust that even the most painful experiences have a purpose in your growth and evolution.   Special Invitation: March 2025 Retreat – From Wounds to Wisdom Join Christine Hassler and Stefanos Sifandos for a life-changing retreat, From Wounds to Wisdom, taking place at the Art of Living Retreat Center from March 28–30, 2025.

In this transformative episode, Christine Hassler coaches Stacey, who opens up about living with misophonia, a neurological condition that causes extreme sensitivity to certain sounds, triggering fight-or-flight responses. Stacey shares how this condition has impacted her relationships, including her family and romantic connections, leaving her feeling isolated and doubtful about her ability to maintain long-term intimacy. Christine compassionately guides Stacey to explore the interplay between her condition, beliefs about herself, and fears around relationships. Together, they delve into the deeper layers of guilt, shame, and self-worth that have influenced Stacey's ability to open herself to love and connection. This heartfelt coaching call is a powerful reminder that while we all have challenges, they do not define our worthiness or capacity for relationships. Christine offers practical insights and tools to help Stacey and listeners embrace hope, reframe their beliefs, and find empowering ways to move forward.   Consider/Ask Yourself: Do you feel like a diagnosis or past experience has become a barrier to forming or maintaining relationships? Are you carrying guilt or shame over how your challenges have affected others? Do you feel stuck in a pattern of self-protection that limits your ability to experience intimacy? Are you ready to explore new perspectives and approaches to shift your mindset and open to new possibilities?   Key Insights and A-HAs: Our challenges, no matter how overwhelming, do not make us unworthy of love or connection. Beliefs about ourselves and our perceived "flaws" often become self-fulfilling prophecies, but they can be shifted. Neurodivergent conditions, like misophonia, can be addressed with a combination of self-compassion, rewiring techniques, and relational support. Everyone brings challenges into relationships—it's about how we work through them together. How to Get Over It & On With It: Explore resources like Dr. Robert Melillo's work on brain balance, and rewiring techniques for neurological conditions. Focus on the gifts and strengths you bring to relationships, rather than fixating on challenges. Practice belief work, such as Byron Katie's “The Work,” to shift limiting narratives and open yourself to new possibilities. Consider joining a supportive program or retreat to broaden your perspective and strengthen your inner resources.   Special Invitation: March 2025 Retreat – From Wounds to Wisdom Join Christine Hassler and Stefanos Sifandos for a life-changing retreat, From Wounds to Wisdom, taking place at the Art of Living Retreat Center from March 28–30, 2025.

In this insightful episode, Christine coaches Alecks, who is navigating the fine line between self-care and selfishness. Alecks shares her struggles with balancing her own needs and feelings of guilt when caring for her family, particularly her mother. Together, they dive deep into inner child work, exploring how unresolved childhood wounds and patterns of self-abandonment can manifest in adult relationships and personal choices. Christine guides Alecks to connect with her inner child, offering tools to repair the sense of abandonment and foster a secure attachment within herself. This heartfelt conversation sheds light on how we can honor our own needs while still showing compassion for others, ultimately empowering us to make choices rooted in love rather than guilt.   Consider/Ask Yourself: Do you often feel guilty for taking time for yourself or prioritizing your own needs? Are you unclear about the difference between self-care and being selfish? Do you struggle with feelings of abandonment or guilt when dealing with family obligations? Are you ready to strengthen the relationship with your inner child and break old patterns?   Key Insights and A-HAs: Inner child work is an ongoing process that fosters healing and connection. Guilt often stems from unresolved childhood patterns of self-silencing and overcompensation. True self-care involves choosing from a place of love, not guilt or obligation. Repairing the relationship with your inner child can reduce feelings of abandonment and foster inner peace.   How to Get Over It & On With It: Check in with your inner child regularly to understand their needs and feelings. Practice secure attachment techniques, such as clear communication and creating agreements. Reflect on where you might be operating out of guilt or obligation instead of authentic care. Take actionable steps to balance family responsibilities with your own well-being.   Special Invitation: March 2025 Retreat – From Wounds to Wisdom Join Christine Hassler and Stefanos Sifandos for a life-changing retreat, From Wounds to Wisdom, taking place at the Art of Living Retreat Center from March 28–30, 2025.

In this heartfelt episode, Christine coaches Marie, who is navigating transitions in both her career and personal life. As Marie opens up about feelings of inadequacy and fear stemming from her childhood, Christine helps her uncover the deeper roots of her lack of confidence and offers powerful tools for healing. Together, they explore how childhood wounds manifest in adult relationships and career dynamics, and how embracing vulnerability can lead to greater self-worth and confidence. If you've ever felt held back by old patterns or struggled with confidence in relationships or at work, this episode will provide clarity, hope, and actionable insights for your journey.   Consider/Ask Yourself: Do you struggle with speaking up for yourself or setting boundaries at work or in relationships? Are there moments from your childhood that might still be influencing your confidence today? Do you find that a lack of confidence in one area of your life impacts other areas? Are you ready to uncover and heal old wounds to step into your full potential?   Key Insights and A-HA's: Childhood wounds, like parental separation or taking on a caregiver role too early, can create patterns of self-silencing and people-pleasing. A lack of confidence often stems from not being allowed to express emotions or needs as a child. Healing involves doing for yourself now what you couldn't do as a child, such as using your voice and setting boundaries. Confidence grows through radical self-acceptance and addressing unmet needs with compassion and clarity.   How to Get Over It & On With It: Reflect on how past wounds are showing up in your current relationships and career. Allow yourself to express repressed emotions, like anger, in healthy, somatic ways. Practice asserting your needs and opinions in situations where you typically remain silent. Use moments of discomfort as opportunities to break free from old patterns and embrace growth.   Sponsor: This episode is brought to you by AquaTru, the revolutionary water purification system that ensures your drinking water is clean, safe, and free of harmful contaminants.

In this powerful episode, Christine coaches Laura, who is wrestling with resentment and uncertainty after making a big decision for her relationship. Through a deeply honest conversation, they explore the roots of Laura's feelings—how past childhood experiences influence current dynamics—and discover the healing opportunities that can emerge from leaning into love. If you've ever felt conflicted about a choice, especially one made for someone else, this episode will inspire you to trust your journey, release old patterns, and step into growth.   Consider/Ask Yourself: Have you made a decision that you now doubt or feel resentment about? Do you feel like you're sacrificing your needs for someone else's? Are your relationships triggering patterns from your childhood? Do you run from healthy situations because of fear or a desire to retreat to your comfort zone?   Key Insights and A-Ha's: Past childhood experiences, especially enmeshment and codependency, can shape how we respond to adult relationships. Healthy love can feel uncomfortable when it triggers old protective patterns, such as pushing intimacy away. Leaning into love requires trust, vulnerability, and addressing what your inner child needs to feel safe. Gratitude and clarity about what you need now can help shift feelings of sacrifice into empowerment and growth.   How to Get Over It & On With It: Recognize where you may be projecting old wounds onto current relationships. Allow yourself to feel and release anger or resentment in healthy, somatic ways. Identify what you need to feel secure, free, and supported in your relationships. Reframe your decision as an opportunity for healing and relational growth.   Sponsor: This episode is sponsored by AirDoctor, the top-rated air purifier that removes 99.99% of dangerous indoor pollutants.

Christine offers guidance on releasing fear, embracing trust, and navigating the space between longing and manifestation. Whether you're longing for a relationship, financial stability, or achieving a cherished dream, this episode provides powerful insights to help you shift from striving to trusting. Consider/Ask Yourself: Are you clear about what you want in a relationship or other area of your life, but it just isn't showing up? Have you tried both surrendering and taking action without finding the right balance? Do you feel stuck between desiring something deeply and trusting it will happen? Are you embodying trust and gratitude, or are you in a state of striving and scarcity? Key Insights and A-Ha's: Mouette's journey highlights how fears and protective patterns can block the very things we desire. Christine shares how aligning with trust and gratitude shifts the energy needed to manifest dreams. Balancing longing with non-attachment is a powerful practice for attracting your desires. Practical steps like examining resistance, embracing curiosity, and using embodiment practices are explored to help move from scarcity to trust.

In this episode of Over It and On With It, Christine Hassler coaches Johnny, a man seeking clarity in his journey to attract his future partner. Johnny shares how he's moved through deep personal growth and breathwork practices to reach a place of self-love, but finds himself wrestling with the balance between desire and detachment.   Christine guides Johnny to embrace the concept of longing without suffering, encouraging him to move from a place of pushing and striving to one of trust and being. Together, they explore how embodying trust and gratitude can shift his energy and align him with the relationship he desires. This episode offers profound insights into how we can call in our dreams—whether they be relationships, careers, or other goals—by shifting our approach from doing to being.   Consider/Ask Yourself: Are you clear about what you want in a relationship or other area of your life, but it just isn't showing up? Have you tried both surrendering and taking action without finding the right balance? Do you feel stuck between desiring something deeply and trusting it will happen? Are you embodying trust and gratitude, or are you in a state of striving and scarcity?   Key Insights and A-Ha's: Johnny's journey highlights how self-worth and personal growth can lead to profound realizations about what we truly want. Christine shares how desires can stem from a spiritual knowing of what's meant for us, and how embodying trust shifts the energy we bring to our goals.

This episode explores practical steps to balance longing and detachment, including visualization exercises and daily embodiment practices.   How to Get Over It & On With It: Acknowledge the push-pull dynamic in your desires and find a way to embody gratitude and trust. Use embodiment practices, such as visualization and intentional conversations, to align with the energy of your desires.

In this episode of Over It and On With It, Christine Hassler coaches Valentina, a listener at a crossroads in her relationship and living situation. Valentina shares the challenges of navigating her partner's sudden decisions and their impact on her sense of self. This episode dives deep into how family-of-origin patterns influence current relationships, and offers profound insights for anyone questioning their life direction.   Christine helps Valentina explore her feelings, confront patterns of compliance and codependency, and move toward clarity and empowerment. Together, they unpack the importance of honoring one's truth, and voice in relationships and in life.   Consider/Ask Yourself: Do you find yourself putting others' needs before your own in relationships? Are you afraid to speak your truth, fearing it might lead to conflict or rejection? Have you noticed patterns in your relationships that reflect your childhood experiences? Are you currently in a situation that feels like a compromise of your authentic self?   The Guest's Key Insights & A-HA's: Valentina recognizes her tendency to prioritize her partner's desires over her own, a pattern rooted in her upbringing. Christine highlights the importance of self-honoring choices and boundary-setting. Through coaching, Valentina gains clarity on her relationship's dynamics and how they mirror her family history. Valentina finds empowerment in understanding that leaving a relationship or staying should align with her soul's highest good.   How to Get Over It & On With It: Reflect on whether your relationships support or suppress your authentic self.

Seek external support, whether from therapy or coaching, to help navigate big decisions.   Sponsors: Organifi: Christine loves Organifi's clean, plant-based superfood blends that nourish the body.

In this transformative coaching session, Christine guides Sarah, a 39-year-old single woman, through releasing guilt, healing her self-worth, and letting go of codependent patterns in relationships. Sarah shares the profound guilt she feels after leaving an abusive marriage, particularly since her ex-husband later passed away. Struggling with feelings of responsibility, she's found herself repeating self-sacrificing patterns and attracting emotionally unavailable partners. Christine helps Sarah uncover how her childhood experiences of emotional neglect and caretaking shaped her beliefs about love and self-worth.   As they delve deeper, Sarah realizes that her guilt and sense of responsibility are rooted in early family dynamics, where she learned to prioritize others' needs over her own. Christine encourages her to reconnect with her inner “adult self”—a wise, grounded voice within her that initially gave her the strength to leave her toxic marriage. This part of Sarah is key to rebuilding her confidence, trusting her instincts, and setting healthy boundaries.   The conversation highlights how our subconscious often seeks familiar relationship dynamics from childhood, making it challenging to break-free from harmful cycles. For Sarah, Christine suggests focusing on cultivating self-worth by reframing her inner dialogue and practicing self-care over dating. By pausing romantic pursuits, Sarah can create the inner stability needed to attract healthier connections, and leave behind codependent tendencies.   Consider/Ask Yourself: Have you been drawn to relationships where your needs are ignored or undervalued? Do you struggle with guilt when setting boundaries or prioritizing self-care? Are you holding yourself responsible for something that was never truly in your control?   The Guest's Key Insights & A-HA's: Sarah realizes she has been unconsciously choosing emotionally unavailable partners, mirroring her unmet needs from childhood. She understands that her lingering guilt about leaving her ex-husband has fueled codependent behaviors. Her “adult Sarah” voice, which led her to leave her marriage, is an essential inner resource she can rely on. Sarah sees how the part of her focused-on guilt, and self-punishment needs to make way for self-love and healing.   How to Get Over It and On With It: Prioritize Self-Worth: Reframe your self-image by focusing on your worth outside of relationship dynamics. Reconnect with Your Inner Child: Address the needs of your inner child and give yourself permission to release old survival strategies. Focus on Self-Growth: Take dating off the table temporarily to focus on self-healing practices. Seek Healthy Relational Dynamics: Cultivate relationships where you feel seen, safe, and appreciated rather than diminished.   Sponsor: Caraway Cookware - Caraway offers beautifully designed, non-toxic ceramic cookware that's both safe and stylish.

My hubby joins me on the podcast again today where we have a candid conversation about how valuing growth impacts our relationship (and is the reason we are together). We also share tips for those of you looking to call in love and partnership.

In this episode of "Over It and On With It," Christine Hassler coaches Ariana, who struggles with guilt related to her relationship with her mother and aunt. Ariana grew up in an emotionally challenging environment with caregivers who struggled with alcohol dependency. As an adult, she experiences guilt around maintaining boundaries, especially as her mother and aunt react negatively to her attempts to stand up for herself. Christine helps Ariana understand that her guilt is tied to deep-rooted patterns from her childhood and supports her in releasing feelings that no longer serve her well-being.   Through their conversation, Christine guides Ariana to recognize that she's breaking a generational pattern. She encourages Ariana to focus on the family she's building, rather than being consumed by the dynamics she grew up with. This episode explores healing, setting boundaries, and the journey toward liberation from generational patterns.   Consider/Ask Yourself: Do you feel guilty when you set boundaries, especially with family members? Have you ever felt responsible for the emotional well-being of a parent? Are you at a point in your life where you're ready to break free from family patterns that no longer serve you? Do you struggle with guilt about prioritizing your own well-being?   The Guest's Key Insights & A-HA's: Ariana's guilt stems from a desire to feel like a “good daughter,” even at the cost of her own peace. Christine highlights that Ariana's guilt is unproductive and rooted in her past survival mechanisms. By releasing guilt and setting clear boundaries, Ariana can create a healthier, more peaceful life for herself and her future family. The session emphasizes the importance of breaking generational patterns, and choosing to prioritize one's own emotional well-being.   How to Get Over It & On With It: Reflect on whether your guilt serves a productive purpose or if it's keeping you tied to unhelpful dynamics. Practice boundary-setting with compassion, knowing that prioritizing yourself is not selfish. Consider what kind of family environment you want to create and work toward it, regardless of past experiences. Release attachment to controlling others' emotions or well-being, focusing instead on your own growth.   Sponsor: This episode is sponsored by AquaTru.

In this episode of Over It and On With It, Christine coaches Gloria, who grapples with balancing anxiety and confidence. Gloria's core wound stems from childhood abandonment, which causes her to feel unsafe in expressing herself fully, especially in public settings. Although she has a supportive partner and is pursuing trauma-informed coaching, her fears of rejection and failure in her new career keep resurfacing. Christine helps Gloria navigate her anxiety and step into her confidence by guiding her to detach from the narrative she tells herself about being "too much."   Consider/Ask Yourself: Do you struggle with balancing anxiety and confidence in your personal or professional life? Is your core wound rooted in abandonment or rejection, making you feel unsafe in being your authentic self? Do you talk yourself out of pursuing something because of fear of rejection or failure? How do you react to feedback or criticism? Do you internalize it or use it as a learning tool? Are you ready to step out of your story and into your authentic power?   Gloria's Key Insights & Aha Moments: Gloria recognizes that her fear of rejection ties back to childhood wounds of feeling abandoned and "too much." She acknowledges that despite her current partner being emotionally supportive, her fear of public speaking and judgment continues to manifest. Christine helps Gloria realize that her story of always being in "fight or flight" is not her reality, and she has made more progress than she gives herself credit for. By shifting focus from her fear to her strengths, Gloria can step into confidence.   How to Get Over It & On with It: Practice emotional grounding and self-affirmation to challenge the narrative of being too much or too anxious. Use movement or expressive outlets like dancing to release anxiety and reconnect with your true essence. Reframe nervousness or anxiety as a natural response to stepping outside of your comfort zone, not as a sign of incapability. Trust that confidence grows through action, even when you feel nervous—courage is built by doing the hard thing.   Sponsor: Air Doctor: Air Doctor purifiers eliminate 99.99% of tested bacteria and viruses, allergens, mold, and other harmful contaminants in your indoor air.

Bestselling author and TEDx speaker and coach Ashley Stahl joins me to discuss the nine different ways to tell a story. This is useful for anyone regardless of your profession because story telling is a way that connects us all.  Ashley Stahl is the international bestselling author of YOU TURN: Get Unstuck, Discover Your Direction, Design Your Dream Career, host of the You Turn Podcast, ranked on Apple in the top 100 mental health shows in the US, and a keynote speaker with a top 100 ranked TEDx talk. Ashley started her career in counterterrorism under the Obama administration and learned speech writing while working for the government. After pouring 10s of thousands of dollars into her own personal brand, Ashley realized that many entrepreneurs are spinning their wheels and wasting their budgets on personal brand and PR efforts that are not actually moving the needle in their career. After doing two TEDx talks and seeing both of them go viral, Ashley has learned that TEDx is the super highway to launching and scaling your personal brand, whether you want to amplify your authority, leave a legacy or create exponential opportunities for yourself.

In this episode of Over It and On With It, Christine Hassler speaks with Hyesha, who seeks advice on managing her empathic tendencies, especially the overwhelming emotions she feels when witnessing suffering. Christine helps Hyesha navigate the delicate balance between feeling deeply and maintaining emotional boundaries, particularly when her empathic abilities make her overly sensitive to the pain of others. Hyesha opens up about her experiences of being triggered by everyday situations involving children or animals, which leads her into "worst-case-scenario" thinking. Christine assists Hyesha in understanding how her heightened sensitivity stems from unhealed childhood wounds and limiting beliefs. Through this powerful coaching session, Hyesha learns practical ways to embrace her empathic gifts without being consumed by them. Christine emphasizes the importance of distinguishing between empathy and sympathy, encouraging Hyesha to hold space for others' suffering without taking it on herself. She also guides Hyesha in recognizing her own triggers and using them as opportunities for self-compassion and healing. Consider/Ask Yourself: Do you find yourself feeling overwhelmed by others' emotions, to the point that it drains you? Are you an empath who struggles to maintain boundaries between your feelings and those of others? How do you respond when you're triggered by the suffering of children, animals, or even people on the news? Can you hold space for others' emotions without going into "rescue mode" or becoming emotionally paralyzed? Hyesha's Key Insights & A-HA's: Hyesha shares how hearing a child or animal cry often triggers a response that doesn't match the reality of the situation, rooted in past trauma. Christine helps Hyesha identify the emotional patterns that cause her to react so strongly and teaches her how to use her empathic abilities constructively. Hyesha recognizes the need to mother herself and attend to her own emotional needs when triggered by outside stimuli. The session highlights the difference between empathy and sympathy, showing how Hyesha can feel deeply without becoming overwhelmed. How to Get Over It & On With It: Practice distinguishing between empathy (feeling without judgment) and sympathy (feeling sorry for others), and strive to stay in an empathetic space. Acknowledge that your reactions to certain situations may be based on unresolved emotional wounds, and use these moments as invitations to self-care. Use grounding techniques to regulate your nervous system when you start to feel overwhelmed by others' emotions. Recognize that feeling deeply is a gift, but it doesn't require you to take on the burden of fixing or saving others.

In this episode of Over It and On With It, Christine Hassler dives into a heartfelt and profound coaching call with Anna, discussing the difference between healing the body and trying to fix it. Christine emphasizes the importance of understanding that when we focus too much on "fixing" ourselves, we often remain stuck in a mindset that something is inherently broken. Instead, she encourages Anna and listeners to approach the body with love, acceptance, and gratitude, viewing physical symptoms as opportunities for emotional and spiritual growth rather than burdens. Anna opens up about her experiences with PCOS and the struggles she's faced with rigid control over her health. Through this vulnerable conversation, Christine highlights how past unmet emotional needs can manifest physically and explores how healing requires addressing those emotional roots. Consider/Ask Yourself: Are you approaching your health and body from a mindset of fixing rather than healing? Do you trust your body, or do you feel like you're in a constant struggle with it? How do your past experiences, especially from childhood, affect how you relate to your body today? Can you shift your perspective on physical symptoms from frustration to gratitude? The Guest's Key Insights & A-HA's: Christine helps Anna uncover how her childhood experiences of needing to control everything have carried over into her health journey, contributing to her PCOS symptoms. Healing starts with self-love, trust, and understanding that symptoms often have emotional and spiritual roots. The body isn't something to fix; rather, it's an ally that signals where healing is needed. Embracing vulnerability and releasing the pressure to be perfect can lead to deeper emotional and physical well-being. How to Get Over It & On With It: Acknowledge the emotional wounds: Recognize that the physical symptoms you experience, such as PCOS, may have emotional roots stemming from unmet needs in childhood. Allow yourself to feel the sadness, frustration, or grief that comes with these realizations, and begin the healing process by acknowledging these emotions. Release the need for control: Understand that rigid control over your health and body can often stem from past experiences. Let go of the need to micromanage every detail of your health, and trust that your body is not something to be fixed but an ally in your healing journey. Shift your perspective on symptoms: Instead of viewing physical ailments as obstacles, see them as signals from your body asking for deeper healing and attention. Embrace the opportunity to heal not just the physical, but also the emotional and spiritual wounds that contribute to your well-being. Be compassionate with yourself: Just as Anna learned to approach her body with love rather than criticism, practice giving yourself the same grace. Recognize that healing is a process, and it's okay to not have everything figured out. Offer yourself the nurturing and care you needed as a child.

In this episode of Over It and On With It, Christine Hassler coaches Katie, who is struggling with her husband's undiagnosed ADHD and its impact on their relationship. Christine helps Katie reflect on how her husband's behaviors trigger old wounds from her childhood and offers insights into how couples can navigate challenges when their brains and emotional needs function differently. The episode dives deep into relationship dynamics, particularly how unresolved past wounds can surface in present-day partnerships.   Christine encourages listeners to think about their own relationships, especially when they are generally good but contain aspects that are frustrating or triggering. She stresses the importance of taking responsibility for one's own emotional reactions rather than expecting the partner to change or fix things. Additionally, Christine highlights how acceptance of a partner's limitations and clear communication about non-negotiables can strengthen a relationship. Consider/Ask Yourself: Are you in a relationship that's generally good but with aspects that bug or trigger you? Do you tend to focus on evidence that your partner isn't meeting your expectations? How do you handle your emotional reactions when your partner frustrates you? What would change in your relationship if you fully accepted your partner for who they are? Key Insights & AHA's: Katie's frustrations with her husband's forgetfulness are linked to her childhood wounds of abandonment and not feeling important. Christine helps Katie see that her husband's behavior, including conflict avoidance, may be a result of his trauma, and encourages Katie to approach the situation with more acceptance. By focusing on what Katie can control—her own emotional responses—rather than trying to change her husband, she can create more peace within herself. Clear communication about non-negotiables, such as her husband seeking treatment, can help Katie and her husband move forward.

In this episode of Over It and On With It, Christine Hassler delivers a heartfelt reminder about the importance of self-care, rest, and prioritizing our well-being over external obligations and people-pleasing tendencies. Christine shares her own recent experiences as a busy mom and life coach, explaining how taking time for herself—even when it meant canceling podcast recordings—has been a powerful practice in maintaining integrity with her own needs.   Christine encourages listeners to reflect on the ways they may be abandoning themselves by prioritizing the expectations of others over their own health and happiness. She highlights the significance of slowing down, saying “no” when necessary, and learning to trust that others will understand when we make self-honoring choices.   This episode serves as a powerful message for anyone feeling overwhelmed by life's obligations, reminding us that true healing and clarity can only come when we give ourselves permission to rest and recharge.   Consider/Ask Yourself: Are you abandoning your own needs to meet others' expectations? What is it costing you to keep pushing yourself without rest? Can you give yourself permission to slow down, even if it means disappointing others? How can you incorporate moments of self-care, even in a busy schedule?   Key Insights & AHA's: Christine reflects on how she has shifted from people-pleasing and feeling obligated to meet commitments at the cost of her well-being. The importance of slowing down, not just for physical rest, but for nervous system regulation and emotional healing. She reminds us that healing happens at the pace of the slowest part of us that feels safe, and rushing through life can prevent true restoration. Self-care is not a luxury, but a necessity for maintaining alignment and integrity with oneself.   Social Media + Resources: Christine Hassler — Take a Coaching Assessment Christine Hassler Podcasts Including Coaches Corner Christine on Facebook Expectation Hangover by Christine Hassler @ChristineHassler on Twitter @ChristineHassler on Instagram @SacredUnionCouples on Instagram Email: jill@christinehassler.com — For information on any of my services!

In this episode of Over It and On With It, Christine Hassler coaches Marla, a professional singer who bravely shares her experience of being publicly shamed and attacked after performing the national anthem at a major rugby event.  Marla opens up about the intense wave of negative reactions she received from the press and social media, as well as the personal toll it took on her and her daughter. Christine helps Marla process the deep wounds this experience triggered, drawing connections to childhood trauma and longstanding beliefs of unworthiness and fear of rejection. Through the coaching session, Christine guides Marla to reclaim her voice and inner power, emphasizing the importance of healing from past trauma and addressing limiting beliefs that may have reinforced feelings of shame and isolation. Marla's journey is a powerful example of how, even in the face of overwhelming negativity, we can find strength, regain our self-worth, and take a stand for ourselves. Consider/Ask Yourself: Have you ever felt attacked, bullied, or shamed in your personal life or public spaces? Do you struggle with feelings of rejection or fear of judgment? Are there wounds from your childhood that still influence how you handle criticism or rejection today? How do you respond when you're unfairly criticized? Do you retreat or stand up for yourself? The Guest's Key Insights & AHA's: Marla shares how being publicly shamed reignited deep fears of rejection and criticism that date back to her childhood. Christine helps Marla understand that her experience is not just a random occurrence but a reflection of longstanding limiting beliefs that are ready to be healed. Marla recognizes the importance of expressing her feelings and standing up for herself, not only in the present moment but also for her inner child, who was silenced in the past. The session highlights how reclaiming our voice, even in the face of fear, is a powerful way to shift out of victimhood and into empowerment. How to Get Over It & On With It: Acknowledge the feelings of hurt and rejection that may arise when you're attacked or criticized, but don't allow them to define you. Revisit any limiting beliefs from your past that may contribute to how you perceive criticism or bullying. Practice giving voice to your feelings and standing up for yourself, even when difficult. Remember that reclaiming your voice and power is a process—allow yourself to move through the emotions and find strength in your vulnerability.
