    If you feel like you're working out seven days a week just to get smaller but you still don't feel confident, energized, or powerful in your own skin...this episode is for you.The truth is, society has conditioned us to believe that "success" means shrinking. We're told that if we aren't exhausted after every workout, it doesn't count. But real, lasting transformation happens when you stop trying to disappear and start focusing on what you can build.In this episode of the Redefining Strength Podcast, I sit down with Tara LaFerrara. Tara is a premier fitness coach, creator of the Broads app, and an expert at helping women move away from the "all-or-nothing" mindset to build real strength and confidence.Together, we break down:The "Shrinking" Trap: Why success isn't measured by a number on the scale and how to shift your focus to taking up space.The HIIT Girly Phase: Why the "more is better" approach leads to burnout and how to transition to intentional lifting.Identity Shift: Why building a habit takes 60 days, but building an identity takes years and why most people stop too soon.The Challenge Gap: Why we stop challenging ourselves as we get older and how to regain the courage to be a beginner again.Filtering Information Overload: How to put blinders on when social media tells you there is only "one way" to train.The All-or-Nothing Solution: Practical strategies to win your day even when you can't get all ten things on your to-do list done.Under-Recovering vs. Overtraining: Why rest and deload weeks are actually the fast track to breaking through plateaus.If you've ever thought:“It only counts if I'm dripping in sweat and exhausted.”“I want to be strong, but I'm afraid of taking up too much space.”“I'm an all-or-nothing person; if I miss one workout, the whole week is ruined.”“I've built the habits, but I still don't feel like I've changed who I am.”This episode is for you.Chapters:00:00 – Stop Trying to Shrink!01:50 – Leaving the "HIIT Girly" Mindset Behind 14:27 – Why We Struggle to Be Beginners as Adults 19:22 – Habit vs. Identity: The Real Timeline for Change 25:21 – Filtering the "Information Overload" of Social Media 31:52 – How to Finally Break the All-or-Nothing Cycle 37:23 – Why Recovery & Deloading Are Non-Negotiable

    Complex Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (cPTSD): What is it and how does it compare to borderline personality disorder

    This episode describes what complex Post Traumatic Stress disorder (cPTSD) is, how it's diagnosed, and how it's different to similar disorders like PTSD and borderline personality disorder. This episode was inspired by the angry comments on Dr. Kibby's latest reel on spotting emotion dysregulation in borderline personality disorder. When someone has a history of childhood trauma and they struggle with intense emotions, self-esteem issues, and relationship problems- what disorder do they have? In this episode, Dr. Kibby delves into the criteria for complex PTSD, which is still not an official disorder in the DSM-V. Yet, so many people struggle with symptoms from long, painful histories of trauma that has shaped their entire lives and personalities.Dr. Kibby also discusses the nuanced differences between Complex PTSD and Borderline Personality Disorder, revealing how trauma shapes self-esteem, relationships, and emotional regulation in surprising ways. If you've ever wondered why these disorders often overlap—and how understanding their distinctions can transform healing—you'll want to hear this.Dr. Kibby shares her own experiences with online criticism around trauma representation, sparking a deeper conversation about stigma and bias in mental health. She dives into the hidden intricacies of CPTSD, explaining why it's often overlooked in the DSM-5 but recognized worldwide, and how prolonged trauma affects the brain's ability to process memories, dissociate, and regulate emotions.She also talks about how how trauma, whether overt or subtle, can lead to complex self-protection mechanisms that impact every aspect of life. Then she finishes with listing the best evidence-based treatments, from prolonged exposure to cognitive processing therapy and DBT, tailored for each disorder's unique challenges. She emphasizes the power of compassion and personalized treatment over stigma, advocating for a mental health field that treats all disorders with empathy and respect. Why diagnosis isn't about labels- it's a pathway to personalized healing and recovery.Resources:Sarr, R., Quinton, A., Spain, D., & Rumball, F. (2024).

    Sensory Processing Underlies Everything with Donna Redman and Cindy Duffy

    Sensory is not an extra layer. It is the ground your child is standing on. In this conversation, occupational therapist Cindy Duffy and Secret Genius Project founder Donna Redman join me to explore behavior through a sensory lens. Donna shares her research into our connection with art, science, and nature, and how we first meet the world through our senses. Cindy explains why she has always viewed behavior as information, not defiance, and how environmental details—buzzing fluorescent lights, rushing schedules, echoes in a room, or even the hum of a refrigerator—can make a child feel regulated or completely overwhelmed. Cindy also walks us through powerful real-life examples: children whose "messy work" and math meltdowns were actually undiagnosed vision issues; adults who spent decades believing they were "stupid" before anyone evaluated their vestibular and visual systems; and a teacher who realized she was sensory sensitive in a classroom full of seekers and changed everything by tending to her own nervous system. We talk about babies arriving with distinct sensory profiles, siblings with very different needs, and parents who feel mismatched with their child until they understand what kind of touch, movement, and energy that child's body is asking for. This episode is a reminder that behavior makes sense, sensory profiles matter, and there is often a "secret genius" waiting to be noticed once we stop blaming willpower and start listening to the body. Key Takeaways Behavior is communication. When kids lash out, avoid, or shut down, their bodies and brains are telling us something important. We are sensory beings first. Our first encounter with the world is through our senses, yet sensory processing is often misunderstood at school and at home. Environment shapes regulation. Light, sound, echoes, transitions, schedules, and background noise all influence how overwhelmed or calm a child feels. Sensory and vision challenges can hide under "behavior." Erasing constantly, pressing too hard with a pencil, rereading lines, or melting down around math may point to sensory or visual strain—not intelligence. Mislabeling can be harmful. When kids are shamed or disciplined for reactions they cannot control, they often internalize the belief that they are the problem. Everyone has a sensory profile. Understanding your child's profile helps you support them; understanding your own helps you show up more calmly. Adults have sensory needs too. When caregivers manage their own nervous systems, the entire dynamic can shift. Strengths matter as much as challenges. A strengths-based plan often opens doors that behavior plans alone cannot. Babies arrive with a sensory story. When sensory needs are honored early, kids do not have to "act out" to get what their bodies need. There is a "secret genius" under the struggle. Once sensory and nervous system needs are understood, children's gifts often become visible. About Donna Redman and Cindy Duffy Donna Redman is the founder and president of The Secret Genius Project. Her research into the origins of creativity and self-expression explores the deep connection between art, science, nature, and the nervous system. Drawing from philosophy, quantum physics, art therapy, and mathematics, Donna curates programs that help families, educators, and professionals better understand human potential. The Secret Genius of Sensory Processing, created with occupational therapist Cindy Duffy, is one of the first offerings in the series. Cindy Duffy is an occupational therapist who has served communities in Northeast Pennsylvania for more than forty years. She holds a Bachelor of Science in Occupational Therapy from Kean University and an Advanced Pediatric Certificate from Misericordia University. Cindy has worked across public education, geriatrics, rehabilitation, and recovery programs, and is widely respected for her intuitive ability to interpret complex sensory profiles. She now maintains a private practice and teaches The Secret Genius of Sensory Processing, helping parents and professionals understand behavior through a sensory and nervous system lens.

While much attention is given to reaching Millennials and Gen Z, an equally significant group is slowly drifting away: older adults who once formed the backbone of many congregations. Their departure isn't loud or dramatic. It's subtle: an empty pew, a missing volunteer, a longtime member who quietly stops attending.

    This is the fourth instalment of the "Ger Graus Gets Gritty" series. Based on Chapter 4 of his book Through a Different Lens: Lessons from a Life in Education (published by Routledge), this episode tackles one of the most contentious topics in modern education: technology.Rather than focusing on the technical aspects of digital tools, Professor Dr Ger Graus OBE reframes the conversation around technology as fundamentally a discussion about human behaviour, courage, and trust. From fountain pens to AI, he traces the historical pattern of moral panic that accompanies each technological advancement, arguing that our concerns reveal more about ourselves than about the technology itself.The conversation challenges the current discourse around banning mobile phones in schools, advocates for student-centered approaches to technology integration, and explores how young people might actually serve as role models for adults when it comes to digital literacy. We discuss engaging students in creating their own codes of conduct and for recognising that technology's impact—positive or negative—ultimately comes down to how we choose to use it.Key QuoteOn the Mobile Phone Ban Debate:"The fact that we are actually talking about banning mobile phones from schools is unbelievable. It is literally turning around to your children and to mine and saying, now, for whatever, six, seven, eight hours a day, we're going to pretend that they don't exist."Key Takeaways1. Technology Panic is a Historical Pattern, Not a New PhenomenonEvery technological advancement in education—from fountain pens to ballpoint pens, calculators to the Internet, and now AI—has been met with moral panic about "dumbing down" and declining standards. This reveals that our anxieties are less about the technology itself and more about our discomfort with change and our ability to adapt.2. The Problem Isn't the Technology—It's Human BehaviorTechnology is neutral; its impact depends entirely on how humans choose to use it. Rather than banning tools like mobile phones, we need to focus on developing appropriate behaviors, codes of conduct, and digital citizenship. The phone sitting on the desk isn't harmful—it's how we interact with it that matters.3. Students Should Be Partners in Creating Technology PoliciesYoung people are conspicuously absent from public discussions about technology in schools, despite being the most affected stakeholders. Students are capable of creating sophisticated codes of conduct for technology use—often better than adults can create—and are more effective at self-policing when they've been part of the solution.4. We're Failing at Technology's Greatest Promise: Equity and DemocratizationThe Internet represents humanity's greatest democratizing invention, yet we've failed dismally at addressing equity issues both within countries and globally. The gaps in technology access and digital literacy are growing rather than shrinking, which represents a massive missed opportunity for education and society.5. Young People Are Our Role Models in Technology, Not the Other Way AroundThe traditional model of role modeling—where older generations guide younger ones—is reversed when it comes to technology. Adults need to approach young people with respect and humility, learning from their digital fluency and working collaboratively to understand and navigate the technological landscape together.Join the conversation using #educationonfire and share your stories.Chapters:00:01 - Introduction to the Series01:14 - The...

    In this episode of "The Fear Less Now," hosts Jamie Pastrano and Brittany Moser join me to discuss the launch of Synchrony's innovative AI-powered social support tool, Jesse. Designed specifically for neurodivergent adults, Jesse offers real-time conversation coaching to help reduce social anxiety and foster deeper connections.   The conversation will delve into the pressing issue of social isolation and loneliness among autistic individuals and those with other neurodevelopmental differences, particularly in early adulthood when traditional support structures often become less available. Recent research highlights the increasing prevalence of loneliness during this life stage.    Jamie and Brittany will explore how Jesse, while not a replacement for therapy, can act as a supportive coach to build foundational skills such as social confidence, resilience, and connection. By strengthening these everyday skills, Jesse can play an important role in fostering well-being and creating the conditions for meaningful, lasting friendships.   The discussion will also touch on the potential benefits and limitations of AI in supporting neurodivergent individuals, drawing on insights from various sources. For instance, AI can help with script practice, document drafting, and confidence building in social interactions. However, it's also important to consider the risks of over-reliance on such technology.   Tune in to this insightful conversation to learn more about how Jesse and similar tools might be shaping the future of support for neurodivergent adults.

    Harvard-trained psychologist and resilience expert Dr. Robert Brooks has spent decades watching what helps kids thrive and also what breaks them down. In this conversation with Ginny Yurich, he flips the script from “what's wrong” to what's strong: how to spot and honor your child's islands of competence, why resilience is rooted in at least one steady adult a child can “gather strength” from, and how empathy changes everything from discipline to screen habits to the way we speak when kids melt down. You'll walk away with language you can use today, a fresh way to think about technology and AI without panic, and a deeper reminder that children don't need perfect parents but they do need present ones who help them feel valued, capable, and truly known.

    Daniel Coyle, New York Times bestselling author of The Culture Code and adviser to organizations ranging from Navy SEALs to global technology companies, joins the Strategy Skills Podcast to explore what truly drives leadership, performance, and flourishing. Drawing on decades of research into elite performers and high-functioning cultures, Coyle explains why performance alone is not enough, and why many highly successful people still experience emptiness and burnout. He shares pivotal moments from his work observing leaders, including a defining insight from a Navy SEAL commander who described the four most important words a leader can say: "I screwed that up." The conversation challenges conventional thinking about leadership, power, and problem-solving. Coyle distinguishes between complicated problems that can be solved with instructions and complex problems that require experimentation, learning, and trust. Through examples ranging from kindergarten classrooms to professional sports teams and Pixar's creative process, he shows how psychological safety, vulnerability, and group flow enable people to add up to more than the sum of their parts. The episode also moves beyond the workplace to examine what it means to flourish in a world that is accelerating, fragmenting, and increasingly uncertain. Coyle discusses attention, meaning, community, and the small practices that help individuals and groups create energy, connection, and resilience over time. Key Insights 1. Leadership begins with vulnerability "The four most important words a leader can say… 'I screwed that up.'" Coyle explains that the best leaders are not those who appear flawless, but those who openly acknowledge mistakes. This signal of vulnerability creates trust and invites others to contribute honestly, allowing groups to solve problems together rather than hiding behind certainty. 2. Psychological safety outperforms raw intelligence "The kindergartners outperform the CEOs… not because they're smarter, but because they're safer." In group problem-solving tasks, children succeed because they are unafraid to try, fail, and adjust. Adults, constrained by status and fear of judgment, slow themselves down. Safety enables experimentation and learning. 3. Most leadership failures confuse complex with complicated "Complex problems are alive. They change when you do something to them." Coyle draws a sharp distinction between problems that follow instructions and those that evolve as you interact with them. Treating living systems like mechanical ones leads to brittle strategies and disappointment. 4. Experimentation beats planning in complex systems "Try something, observe what happens, learn from that, and then try something else." For complex challenges, progress comes from testing, learning, and adjusting rather than executing a fixed plan. This mindset mirrors how high-performing teams actually work. 5. Leadership is about creating energy, not pushing information "A lot of times we think of business problems as knowledge problems, when in fact they're energy problems." Coyle emphasizes that change fails when leaders try to impose best practices. Momentum emerges when people are invited into shared questions and feel ownership of the work. 6. Group flow requires clear goals and freedom "You have to have a shared horizon… autonomy… and ownership." High-performing teams operate like a pickup basketball game: everyone knows the goal, operates within guardrails, and has freedom to act. These conditions allow flow to emerge naturally. 7. Meaning is created through connection, not information "Meaning is not about delivering information. It's about resonance and connection." Coyle shows that meaning arises when people share stories, vulnerability, and purpose—often through simple but deep questions—rather than through data or instructions. 8. Attention determines whether life feels alive or hollow "If you're all in the narrow, life gets really thin." Flourishing individuals and cultures balance focused, controlling attention with open, connective attention. Too much of either leads to stagnation or chaos. 9. Community is something you practice, not consume "Community isn't a noun. It's a verb." Whether in organizations or neighborhoods, community forms through shared projects, constraints, and contribution—not passive belonging.

    Eating disorder recovery in midlife often looks very different than recovery earlier in life. For many adults over 40, anorexia and bulimia are not new struggles but long standing patterns shaped by decades of survival, responsibility, and adaptation. This episode explores why recovery after 40 requires a different lens and why difficulty healing is not a personal failure. In this solo episode, Dr. Marianne Miller examines how anorexia and bulimia persist into midlife and what actually supports healing at this stage of life. Rather than focusing on willpower or symptom control, this conversation centers nervous system safety, autonomy, grief, and the cumulative impact of stress and systemic harm. You will hear how hormonal changes, aging bodies, chronic stress, caregiving roles, and identity related oppression all shape midlife eating disorder recovery. This episode also addresses why traditional treatment models often fall short for adults over 40 and how neurodivergent affirming, weight inclusive, and harm reduction oriented care can offer a more sustainable path forward. Recovery after 40 is not about catching up or starting over. It is about choosing care that fits the life you are living now. In this episode, we cover: Anorexia and bulimia in midlife and why recovery changes after 40. Why long standing eating disorder patterns often reflect adaptation, not resistance.

    Behavior is never just behavior. In this conversation, holistic academic support coach Elyse Dworin joins me to look underneath school struggles, homework battles, and "I don't feel well" complaints through a whole-child lens. We talk about behavior as a symptom, not a character flaw, and explore how challenges with executive function, overwhelm, social stress, or undiagnosed needs can show up as avoidance, lashing out, or shutdown long before a child has words for what's wrong. Elyse walks us through simple, body-based tools to help kids (and parents) tune back in: grounding exercises, naming feelings, noticing clenched fists and racing hearts, and using movement, nature, music, and deep pressure to bring the nervous system back online. We also talk about her Whole Child Collective audit for families who feel like they've "tried everything" and are still stuck. This episode is a gentle invitation to step out of blame, get curious, and start working with your child's brain and body instead of against them. Key Takeaways Behavior is a symptom and a form of communication. When we stop treating it as the whole problem and start asking why, new possibilities open up. The same behavior can have many different roots. Homework refusal might be about overwhelm, difficulty breaking tasks down, social stress, exhaustion, or relationship dynamics at home. Shifting from "my child is being difficult" to "why is this happening" moves parents out of a stuck, victim place and into partnership and problem solving. Interoception, the ability to notice and understand internal body signals, is often tricky for complicated kids. "I don't feel well" can cover many different sensations and emotions. Naming emotions helps. When a child can connect a big feeling to a word like overwhelm, fear, or frustration, intensity often decreases. Connecting feelings to body sensations is a skill. Questions like "Where did you feel that?" help kids map their internal states. Mind-body practices support learning and regulation. Grounding, breathing, time outdoors, movement, music, and sensory tools all help when tailored to the child. Strategies are experiments, not one-size-fits-all solutions. Reflection helps kids learn what works for their nervous system. Adults need this awareness too. Parents can miss their own stress signals, especially during intense seasons. A whole-child lens looks at school, home, social life, body, and brain together.

    Full Text: https://eggshelltherapy.com/existential-depression/Sometimes, you have a lingering, niggling sense that says you are capable of more than your life currently reflects.Perhaps you wake up with a quiet, persistent hum that whispers you are in the wrong city, the wrong company, the wrong room. You function well on the surface, meeting obligations and appearing competent, but underneath there is a constant awareness that you are hemorrhaging meaning, that something essential remains unlived and unexpressed. You watch peers announce promotions, publications, and prestigious positions, and feel a burning mixture of longing and shame at your own reaction. Does that mean you are somehow a horrible person to be feeling a bit envious?Existential depression in gifted adults can come from sensing the gap between your capacities and what your circumstances allow. It is the warfare between the part of you that wants to unfurl toward something larger and the part that has learned, through years of correction and dismissal, that your brightness is dangerous.We shame ourselves for wanting recognition, for caring about prestige, for imagining ourselves in contexts that finally match our internal magnitude. But what if the pain is not pathological? What if it is developmental, a sign of growth, and the seed of your next breakthrough? Psychoanalyst Heinz Kohut wrote about our human need for mirroring, for having our inner reality reflected back accurately by our environment. For those whose complexity, intensity, and particular cognitive capacities were rarely recognized or understood, the longing for congruence between internal and external reality is not shallow vanity. Continue reading to understand why your envy is a messenger, how the lack of mirroring created your current distress, and what it means to hold the tension between who you are and who you might become without collapsing into either denial or self-destruction. Note: Existential depression as discussed here is not a clinical diagnosis in the DSM and can coexist with clinical depression.

    Living with anxiety spikes, focus fog, or constant sensory overload as an autistic, AuDHD, or ADHD adult—and wondering if music could actually help your brain calm down? This episode of Adulting With Autism explores music therapy for autistic adults with Dr. Barb Minton, a psychologist and neuroscientist who started as a pipe organ major and went on to create the Calm the Storm album with guitarist Peppino D'Agostino.​ Dr. Barb explains how music can entrain brain waves—how tempo, rhythm, and sound textures can gently guide the nervous system toward calmer or more focused states. She shares how specific choices (like slower tempos around 60–80 beats per minute for calm, or slightly faster tempos around 110–120 for focus) may support sleep, pain management, migraines, and attention, and why the body "hears" vibration through mechanoreceptors as well as through your ears.​ You will hear stories of how music has been used to support neurodivergent adults, including those with autism and ADHD, and how to experiment safely: choosing tracks that feel regulating rather than overwhelming, adjusting volume, and noticing your own responses instead of following rigid rules. Dr. Barb also talks about why music is still underused in mainstream care despite promising research and real-world results.​ This episode is especially helpful if you: Feel overstimulated or shut down and want non-medication tools to try Are curious whether specific music choices could help with anxiety, focus, or sleep Want a more science-informed understanding of why certain music "works" for your brain If this conversation supports you, follow/subscribe to Adulting With Autism on Podbean, Apple, or Spotify and leave a 5-star review so more neurodivergent adults can find it.
