Meg's story is one of transformation, resilience, and introspection, highlighting her shift from societal expectations to personal fulfillment. The episode offers listeners an insightful exploration of the complexities of self-discovery and the strength found in embracing one's true identity.Takeaways: A significant life change or loss often triggers the journey to sobriety.

Growing up in a small town, she faced the challenges of fitting into predefined roles.

As a highly functioning alcoholic, Meg navigated the pressures of her professional and personal life. This takeaway emphasizes the importance of recognizing unhealthy coping strategies and the bravery required to address the underlying issues, serving as a cautionary tale about the dangers of masking emotions.Path to Personal FulfillmentMeg's journey evolves into a transformation narrative, shifting from a checklist-driven life to one focused on personal fulfillment. She underscores the importance of self-awareness and pursuing passions beyond traditional career success. This takeaway offers a compelling message about the ongoing journey to find joy and purpose, encouraging listeners to embrace change and seek fulfillment in all aspects of life.Guest BioMegan Gluth is the owner and CEO of Catalynt Solutions, Inc., a leading US-based chemical distributor, and the Owner of Chemblend of America.

Depression and anxiety can begin to make their home within our thoughts and cause difficulties in our relationships and our everyday interactions.My guest, Brian Sachetta, went through his own personal depressive episode that really shook him to the core, and this made him question his will to live.What brought him through that time was a burning desire to figure out what makes depression tick, to help himself get better and to share what he learned to help others.Brian Sachetta is the owner and author of Get Out of Your Head®, a brand and book series that seeks to help folks overcome anxiety and depression. In today's episode, Brian shares:Pattern recognitions and awareness of the thoughts that bring depression and anxietyThe parallels between the computer and our brainHow nutrition and exercise play a role in managing our depression and anxietyDaily routine that helps manage depression and anxiety CONNECT WITH BRIANWebsite – www.getoutofyourhead.comInstagram - @getoutofyourheadBrian's books can be found on Amazon(https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07L5Z6V75) -Managing depression (https://www.amazon.com/Get-Out-Your-Head-Vol-ebook/dp/B09KQ4FLBW)Facebook – @getoutofyourheadbooksLinkedin – www.linkedin.com/in/brian-sachetta CONNECT WITH DEBIDo you feel stuck?

Ryan Pink is a survivor. Like many of us, he's faced some hard things, and has come out the other side swinging.In this episode, we dive pretty deeply into trauma - what it is and isn't, and how we can protect our kids from trauma digging too deeply into them.Ryan walks through his own healing journey, including how expensive it was (I hope you're sitting down!).That experience led him to ask a lot of questions and talk to over 500 adults trying to heal from their own trauma, and he came up with some answers…and more questions.“What did we do to heal from trauma before therapy existed? Can we still tap into those strategies?”What if people don't have a lot of money or bandwidth to figure out how to heal from their own demons?Ryan founded HopeGuide, an online service designed to reduce the barriers to healing for those with trauma. You'll love hearing about how HopeGuide works, and even more, how Ryan instructs us to build resilience in our families for our children.Shall I spoil the ending? I think so:”Relationship is THE most important thing we can have.”If you're on board with that, this interview is for you!Resourced We Mentioned Today:Hope Guide, for lower-cost guidance on healing from traumaThe Myth of Normal by Gabor Maté (Amazon/Bookshop.org)I talked all about helicopter parenting and free-range kids with Lenore SkenazyBuilding resilience in kids through self-compassion with Dr. Mary WildeTips for improving sleep qualityResearch on the different forms of magnesiumDr. Kelly Brogan on helping kids with depression and anxietyThe benefits of family dinnerDr. Meg Haworth on how your body might be holding onto trauma from childhood Kitchen Stewardship Kids Cook Real Food follow Katie on Instagram follow Kids Cook Real Food on Facebook Subscribe to the newsletter to get weekly updates Find the Healthy Parenting Handbook at kidscookrealfood.com/podcast Affiliate links used here.

Dr. Britt Wray is a science communicator and the author of two books. Her latest is Generation Dread: Finding Purpose in an Age of Climate Anxiety, which is a national bestseller. Dr. Wray is also the director of CIRCLE (Community-minded Interventions for Resilience, Climate Leadership, and Emotional wellbeing) at Stanford Psychiatry, a research and action initiative in the Stanford School of Medicine. Her first book, the Rise of the Necrofauna: The Science, Ethics, and Risks of De-Extinction was named a best book of 2017 by the New Yorker. She most recently is a top award winner of the Eric and Wendy Schmidt Awards for Excellence in Science Communications, which was bestowed upon her by the National Academies in partnership with Schmidt Futures.Climate change evokes a myriad of emotions unique to each individual. It can stir outrage in some, sadness in others, a sense of helplessness for some, and dread for the future in others. There is no universally right or wrong reaction, as our responses are shaped by our distinct relationships with the world and the diverse circumstances in which we live. The perception of climate change varies; for some, it may feel abstract, while for others, the impacts are undeniably profound and far-reaching.But as Dr. Wray points out, we know that climate change as we are experiencing it is anthropogenic, meaning it's the result of human behavior. And yet so little has been studied about the human behavioral response to climate change. How do we individually and collectively feel about climate change, and what do those feelings drive us to do? This is the sweet spot of Britt's work.In this episode, we cover: An overview of Dr. Wray's research on climate distressHer work as the Director of CIRCLE (Community-minded Interventions for Resilience, Climate Leadership, and Emotional Wellbeing) at Stanford PsychiatryAn overview of climate anxiety and its impact on peopleThe concept of solastalgia and broken record, record breakingThe importance of community and social connections in addressing climate anxietyThe need for evaluation and evidence-based interventions for climate anxietyIncluding behavioralists and psychologists when addressing climate changeThe potential role of guilt in motivating action on climate changeThe impact of climate change on reproductive decisions and parentingDr. Wray's book and newsletterThe importance of open and vulnerable conversations about climate changeEpisode recorded on Jan 29, 2024 (Published on Feb 26, 2024) Get connected with MCJ: Jason Jacobs X / LinkedInCody Simms X / LinkedInMCJ Podcast / Collective / YouTube*If you liked this episode, please consider giving us a review!

You may be breathing wrong. Here's how to fix it. At times, self-improvement can seem like a never-ending hallway filled with limitless shame and insufficiency. So when something as simple as the breath falls into this category, it seems only natural to meet that news with some resistance. Our guest today, James Nestor, argues that many of us, of all things, are breathing incorrectly but that by fixing our breathing, it can help with both physical and psychological ailments.Nestor is a science journalist who wrote a book called, Breath: The New Science of a Lost Art, which spent 18 weeks on the New York Times bestseller list and was translated into more than 35 languages.In this episode we talk about:How Nestor got interested in breathing in the first placeWhy we are the worst breathers in the animal kingdomThe importance of postureThe deleterious effects of mouth breathingWhy we need to chew moreThe relationship between breathing and anxietyThe relationship between breathing and sleepAnd we dive into a variety of breathing exercisesWhere to find James Nestor online:Website: www.mrjamesnestor.comSocial Media:FacebookInstagramBook Mentioned:Breath: The New Science of a Lost ArtOther Resources Mentioned:Daniel E.

What we do is we work with them.” -Erik “We think it's just part and parcel that you don't find healing as part of the suffering of the human condition without a community and it all starts with our partners.” -Marc
