Do you feel heard when you talk to people? Have you struggled to connect deeply with others in challenging moments? Validation could help you build trust, strengthen your relationships, and prevent miscommunications. But validation is often misunderstood. You don't have to agree with someone to validate them. No one knows this better than Dr. Caroline Fleck, a clinical psychologist and validation expert. In this episode, we discuss how the power of validation can strengthen connections and foster mental strength. Some of the things we discuss are: How validation is different from praise. Why validation is just as important as love and compassion in relationships. How validation can de-escalate conflicts and strengthen communication. Simple skills like mirroring emotions and the “mindfulness, understanding, and empathy” framework. The role of validation in self-compassion and mental strength. The exact steps you can take to ensure someone feels heard and understood. What happens when people don't feel validated. What you can do if you aren't feeling validated by other people.

Research shows 70% of us will experience trauma at least once in our lives, but many won't seek therapy to work through it. Whether it's because therapy doesn't feel right for you, it's not accessible, or you want to supplement it with additional strategies, there are many ways to recover from a traumatic experience. From drum circles to spending time in nature, research shows you don't have to talk about trauma to heal from it. There are practical and effective ways to help you regulate your emotions, calm your nervous system, and work through the pain in your own way. Some of the things I discuss today are: Why traditional talk therapy isn't the only path to healing (and sometimes, not the best one). How drumming or theater can help release buried emotions. The surprising ways caring for animals or gardening can soothe your nervous system and promote healing. The specific physical activities that release trauma. The creative outlets that can open up paths to recovery.

Self-care often gets hailed as the ultimate fix for stress, burnout, and every mental health issue. But self-care is frequently misunderstood.

Episode Summary: In this engaging episode of Life After Kids, Dr. Brooke and Dr. Lynne dive into the topic of building confidence at any stage of life. They begin by reflecting on how personal experiences and shared interactions with their audience shape the themes they explore. This episode centers around understanding confidence, distinguishing it from self-worth, and discovering practical strategies for fostering both. As Dr. Lynne puts it, "Confidence is a doing; it comes from action," emphasizing that building confidence involves more than just a mindset. The doctors delve into two primary ways to cultivate confidence: keeping promises to oneself and stepping out of one's comfort zone. By staying true to commitments, whether big or small, individuals can validate their capabilities and prioritize self-development. Moreover, the discussion turns toward the significance of taking risks and welcoming failure as an opportunity for growth. Dr. Brooke shares her personal journey of joining a challenging business group that enhanced her confidence, highlighting the importance of putting oneself in a stretch zone. Key Takeaways: Confidence Building: Confidence stems from keeping promises to oneself and consistently stepping out of comfort zones. Defining Confidence vs. Self-Worth: Confidence is action-oriented, while self-worth is about inherent value; both are essential in personal growth. Role of Faith: Finding self-worth through faith can be a powerful avenue for personal validation and confidence. Growth Through Failure: Embracing failure as part of the success journey contributes significantly to confidence building. Practical Application: Encourage your older children to find confidence by allowing them to navigate challenges independently, thereby gaining valuable life skills.

In this episode of Life After Kids, Dr. Brooke and Dr. Lynne tackle a topic often left unspoken — grappling with mortality as we age. Guided by their expertise and personal experiences, they explore the challenges and opportunities that arise when entering this new phase of life. The conversation delivers not only reflections on aging but also actionable advice that empowers listeners to embrace life with renewed perspective and vigor. Throughout the episode, they delve into the psychological aspects of aging and the associated anxieties. They emphasize the importance of reframing this life stage as an opportunity for growth and happiness. With statistics from the Gallup World Poll, the conversation touches on how life satisfaction can fluctuate with age, offering encouragement by highlighting the uptick in contentment typically observed in one's later years. Keywords like "healthy aging," "life satisfaction," and "embracing change" underscore the narrative. Key Takeaways: Life satisfaction often reaches its lowest in middle age but improves in the later decades, offering a new perspective on aging. Embracing the finite nature of life can drive individuals toward more fulfilling experiences and deeper relationships. Building strong social networks and focusing on physical health are pivotal for achieving a long, happy life. Avoiding unnecessary stress, focusing on quality over quantity, and letting go of past burdens can lead to personal growth and fulfillment. Making the most of your present circumstances can lead to a richer, more joyful life.

When anxiety creeps in slowly (or skyrockets suddenly), you're going to want fast relief. With the right tools, you can calm yourself down right away. Anxiety is one of the most common mental health challenges, but often the advice given for managing it is long-term lifestyle changes that feel out of reach when you're in a state of panic. As a therapist, however, I often teach people fast-acting tools for coping with anxiety. Some of the things I share in this episode are: Why overcoming avoidance is key to breaking the anxiety cycle and regaining control of your life. How to "change the channel" on your anxious brain to interrupt racing thoughts and ruminating. A simple breathing trick called “smell the pizza” that calms your fight-or-flight response instantly. The surprising power of ice water and the mammalian reflex to reset your nervous system. How creating a reverse worry list can trick your brain into reframing anxiety into excitement. Why scheduling time to worry so you put your anxiety in its place and stop it from hijacking your day. How to build a mental strength toolbox that will help you start coping with anxiety effectively today.

I am excited to have Leo Tonkin joining us today. Leo is a passionate advocate for Halotherapy. He believes the respiratory system is the key to longevity and quality of life because those who cannot breathe properly cannot live well. Even though we take around 20,000 breaths daily, we often take our breath for granted. Unfortunately, our respiratory system degenerates as we age, and the air quality around us keeps deteriorating. So if we fail to care for our lungs, we can lose the ability to sleep, work, and live well, and that's where Halotherapy, or salt therapy, can help us. Benefits of Salt Therapy: Clears mucus and reduces inflammation in the airways It is antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and anti-fungal Eases symptoms of asthma, bronchitis, COPD, and allergies Helps prevent and relieve colds, flu, and sinus infections Strengthens immune function, increases lung capacity, and improves breathing Promotes deep and restful sleep Safe for pets and people of all ages Leo Tonkin's Bio: Leo Tonkin has been a pioneer in many industries, and in 2012, he revolutionized the salt therapy industry with his innovative approach and tireless dedication to transforming the way people think about their skin, respiratory, and mental wellness.  With a deep understanding of the science behind salt therapy and its benefits, Leo started SALT Chamber, the world's leading salt therapy design, equipment, and decor company.  Over a decade ago, he created a global industry for providing a safe, drug-free, evidence-based modality that is ‘hacking' into our respiratory and skin systems to enhance performance and recovery while improving quality of life.  In 2014, Leo was the Founding Chairman of the Salt Therapy Association, which now has over 3600+ members in 62 countries.  Understanding that air quality and climate change are major contributors to our well-being, he launched the Respiratory Wellness Initiative for the Global Wellness Institute.  He has a passion for making a difference in every breath we take, especially since being a Stage 4 cancer survivor. He lives in Delray Beach Florida, with his wife Lori. He has 4 grandchildren. In this episode: How Halotherapy originated and what it involves Why salt particles are effective for overcoming respiratory issues How does salt therapy work? How the halo generator functions in salt rooms The benefits of salt therapy for pets How salt therapy can help respiratory conditions like COPD, asthma, and cystic fibrosis When should salt therapy be avoided?

Much has changed since I wrote my book 13 Things Mentally Strong People Don't Do.

While the principles of mental strength remain the same, we need to adjust our strategies to stay mentally strong. Some of the things I share are: The core principles of mental strength that have remained unchanged. New strategies we need to create, like setting digital boundaries. How modern conveniences, like ride sharing and digital payment options, have reshaped our view of risk. How embracing alone time and practicing gratitude can combat the modern pressures of instant gratification and comparison culture. How to use technology as a tool for improving habits while not allowing devices to foster feelings of inadequacy or impatience.

This heartfelt encore episode features my dear friend, Michelle Barrow—a mother of four and grandmother of six—who generously shares the wisdom she's gained from raising teenagers and supporting her adult children through life's unexpected twists.

As a therapist, I've seen how therapy can be a powerful tool that helps people transform their lives. But, therapy isn't the only way to improve your mental health. There are many other ways that don't involve talking. Whether you're not interested in therapy, you didn't find it helpful, or therapy isn't accessible, you don't need to see a professional to start feeling better. There are many other science-backed strategies for improving mental health and reducing mental illness. Some of the things I share today are: How to build a sense of community to reduce depression and anxiety How to spend time in nature to improve your mood, decrease stress hormones, and boost your creativity The therapeutic benefits of exercise and how it compares to traditional mental health treatments How to use journaling to boost self-awareness and improve decision making The simple actions that can unlock a sense of calm and inner peace The most impactful things you can do to improve your mental health without talking to someone Subscribe to Mentally Stronger Premium for exclusive content like bonus episodes, signed books, and 30-day challenges that will keep you growing stronger.
