One thing each of us can not avoid is a lifetime full of heartache. While the world we live in has taught us to prepare for unforeseen events, they’ve done little in teaching us how to cope. They also don’t tell you this…….Adversity is where the true YOU

    In this deeply personal birthday episode of the Resilient Heart Podcast, host Gabi returns after a four-month hiatus to share the profound lessons she learned during her 45th year. After facing a debilitating neurological illness that brought her to dark places she never expected to experience, Gabi vulnerably shares how this season of struggle became a catalyst for tremendous growth, clarity, and unexpected opportunity. From establishing healthier boundaries to creating intentional stillness, recognizing safe spaces, and discovering her role as a stage-builder for others, this episode offers powerful insights about resilience, purpose, and the courage to shed what no longer serves us. Gabi's journey demonstrates that sometimes our greatest challenges prepare us for opportunities we couldn't have imagined. Gabi is the founder of Resilient Voice Media, a podcast production company, and host of the Resilient Heart Podcast. After navigating significant health challenges including a neurological illness that led to suicidal thoughts, Gabi has emerged with greater clarity about her purpose and mission. A passionate advocate for women healing from trauma, she has recently been granted a license to host TEDx Fredericksburg and is expanding her business to include a podcast studio in downtown Fredericksburg. Gabi combines her personal experiences with professional expertise to create spaces where others can share their stories and heal, firmly believing that vulnerability and resilience can coexist. Key Topics Discussed: Setting Boundaries: How illness revealed where boundaries were needed and the process of implementing them The Shedding Season: Learning to evaluate relationships and move chess pieces based on reciprocity and safety Creating Stillness: Practical strategies for managing social media and content consumption for better mental health Safe Spaces: The importance of identifying who truly deserves proximity to your story and vulnerabilities Purpose Beyond Self: Discovering that sometimes our greatest purpose is building stages for others to shine Personal Transformation: How crisis became catalyst for clarity and new opportunities (TEDx, studio space) Self-Acceptance: Finding the balance between embracing change and honoring personal preferences The Power of Storytelling: How sharing your authentic story can literally save lives Powerful Quotes from the Episode "My boundaries being put into place... did not sit well with some people, and I had to be okay with that. And you have to be okay with that. You can't just let people bust through your shit." "The shedding season is really figuring out who's worth the pouring. That's what it is. It's who is worth the pouring. Who deserves it. Who needs more space in my life." "As you evolve and grow, shedding has to happen because if you are not shedding and growing and shedding and growing, then you're going to get really stagnant." "I realized... people got real comfortable with the way that I was and overstepping boundaries that I didn't set properly. And that kind of sucks to figure out." "Who is going to give me grace? Who's going to be mean to me or rude or read me to filth because I didn't show up the way they anticipated that I would? Those people move." "Are you a topic of conversation when you get up from the table? Are you allowing yourself to be disrespected in the name of wanting to be loved, searching for love, looking for worthiness?" "Sometimes we think the word we choose or the path we choose or the thing that we think is the thing. Sometimes it's for others and it's not for us." "What if your story is the one that saved somebody's life and you're sitting on it? Because you're in your ego... That person doesn't get saved."

    Domestic violence is a pervasive and deeply traumatic issue that affects countless individuals worldwide, leaving lasting scars on survivors and their families. Abusers often employ a range of tactics to maintain control over their victims, including physical violence, emotional manipulation, financial abuse, and social isolation. The cycle of abuse can be insidious, with periods of apparent calm or remorse interspersed with escalating aggression and danger. Recognizing the early signs of an abusive relationship is crucial for potential victims to protect themselves and seek help before the situation worsens. These signs may include excessive jealousy, controlling behavior, rapid mood swings, and attempts to isolate the victim from friends and family. In this episode, I share the final stages of my abusive relationship, including being nine months pregnant and completely isolated from my support network. The situation rapidly deteriorated, with my ex's behavior becoming increasingly erratic and dangerous. From waking me at 3 AM to make him food to accusing me of infidelity regarding my pregnancy, his actions exemplified the manipulative and controlling nature of abusers. The night his intention was to kill me. And it marked a turning point, leading to my escape with the help of my father. Despite the trauma and challenges I faced, including a custody battle and ongoing harassment, I want to emphasize that healing and happiness are possible for survivors of domestic violence. My journey to recovery wasn't easy or quick, but it led me to a place of peace and joy that I never thought possible during my darkest moments. Today, I live a fulfilling life, free from abuse and filled with love. To women currently in abusive situations: there is hope, and it does get better. With support, courage, and time, you can break free from the cycle of abuse and build a beautiful, safe life for yourself.

Co-regulation means working together with kids to help them manage their emotions and behavior. It's like a team effort where adults and children support each other.

    In today's fast-paced and ever-changing world, it's essential to prioritize our mental and emotional well-being. One of the most powerful ways to achieve this is by setting boundaries and protecting our peace. Whether it's saying "no" to activities that drain us or creating clear lines of communication with those around us, implementing healthy boundaries can help us grow, thrive, and find peace in our daily lives.   In this episode, I share some simple ways you can use to set boundaries, implement what you need and protect your peace. The three ways to implement what you need are understanding your boundaries can be kindly set, Identifying what you need on a daily basis and honoring it, and understanding and finding peace in upsetting those who don't respect your boundaries. I also discuss the benefits of setting boundaries and why we gravitate toward messy and uncomfortable situations.
