Let's talk about something that affects literally all of us, but rarely gets named. You declutter your home, try to simplify your life, create calmer spaces… But then you reach for your phone and instantly feel anxious, scattered, or drained. Why does that happen? And more importantly: what can we do about it? In this eye-opening conversation, I'm joined by Jenny Wise Black, a licensed therapist, mom, and pioneer in the movement for digital wellness and media trauma recovery. Jenny shares how modern screen habits are rewiring our brains, eroding our ability to focus, and deeply impacting the way we connect to ourselves, our kids, and our peace. We dive deep into what it means to have an anxious attachment to your phone, why downtime has become screen time, and how to reclaim the kind of joy and presence we had before we were tethered to a screen 24/7. You'll leave this episode with the clarity (and practical steps!) to start shifting your habits without guilt or overwhelm, even if you're a busy mom with zero desire to go off-grid. What You'll Learn in This Episode: What “media trauma” is and how it might be impacting your mental health without you realizing it How screen time affects your nervous system and your home life (yes, even that innocent Instagram scroll) The real reason we feel anxious without our phones and why it's not a willpower problem Simple, science-backed steps to reduce phone-induced anxiety (without needing a digital detox retreat) Why going grayscale and setting screen boundaries may change your life more than any decluttering tip ever has How to model healthier tech habits for your kids without shame or perfection A powerful reframe for moms: you're not failing, you're operating in a system that was never built to support you What “predatory media” is, how to spot it, and how to break the consumption cycle Resources & Mentions: Jenny's Book: Vintage Therapy (https://www.amazon.com/Vintage-Therapy-Practical-Wisdom-Modern/dp/B0FPMR7FK9) – free digital version available on her Substack!

Hi Parents! What happens when you're the anxious one but you're also the parent? In today's episode, I'm joined by Dr. Jeanne Retief, trauma survivor, panic disorder warrior, and founder of FIGGI Beauty, to talk about the raw, unfiltered reality of parenting when you're still learning how to feel safe in your own body. Jeanne opens up about the breaking point that made her reevaluate everything, and how she's learning to heal not just for her child, but with her child. More About Jeanne: Dr. Jeanne Retief is a former international human rights expert turned mental wellness advocate, and the founder of FIGGI Beauty - a brand built on the belief that beauty and healing can coexist. After years of working in high-stakes legal environments, Jeanne was diagnosed with panic disorder, prompting her to reimagine not just her career, but her relationship with herself. Today, she combines her lived experience, academic insight, and soulful honesty to support others navigating anxiety, trauma, and parenthood. Jeanne is passionate about redefining what strength looks like - especially for women who've spent years holding it all together - and uses her platform to champion nervous system care, emotional safety, and truth-telling as tools for growth. We explore how anxiety shows up in the body, what it looks like to parent through panic, and why self-regulation isn't about perfection, but about presence. Jeanne also shares how she began to break inherited emotional patterns and what it really means to model safety when your nervous system is still dysregulated. This is an episode for every parent who's ever felt like they're “too much” or “not enough.” Jeanne reminds us that healing is messy, parenting is vulnerable, and that sometimes the bravest thing you can do is just stay present.

Again.I talk about what it's like trying to navigate the mental health system while dealing with anxiety and depression at the same time. When you're already running on empty, self-advocacy feels almost impossible. The system wants us to be proactive, but how do you do that when you can barely get out of bed?I open up about:Why the mental health system feels reactive instead of preventativeHow depression and anxiety pull me in opposite directions — one shutting down the future, the other making it terrifyingMy mirtazapine being pushed up to 30mg, moving me into the therapeutic rangeJuggling around eight medications, even though my original hope was to taper down and start againThe double-edged sword of “insight” - it looks good on paper, but in reality, it often just feeds my depressionThe short, surface-level appointments in public psychiatry that leave little space for the real stuffAnd at the heart of it all - the fact that I've lost my ability to laugh and smile, and how deeply that hurtsIt's an honest, heavy one - but I think it's important.

Let's explore attachment styles. Luis has learned from personal experience that avoidant attachment types are simply bodies overwhelmed by a connection that feels overly needy, like a burden, and as a result they over-identify with independence. Anxious attachment types seek safety outside of themselves, and often end up seeking that safety in an avoidant partner. So anxious types and avoidant types often end up partnered. The overwhelmed avoidant's behavior "proves" to the anxious type their need to grasp for safety, while that same grasping "proves" to the avoidant type that they need to run. A match, my friends, made in hell. Do you find yourself in an anxious and avoidant relationship pattern, or have you had these patterns in past relationships? In the upcoming 6-month Embodied Relationships slow group, Luis will teach the difference between a trigger and a need, how to fawn less, and how to identify and state preferences. With somatic tools, an avoidant and anxious couple can learn to connect from a soft place and even become a match made in heaven.

Matthew 4:12-25 Now when he heard that John had been arrested, he withdrew into Galilee. 13 And leav-ing Nazareth he went and lived in Capernaum by the sea, in the territory of Zebulun and Naphtali, 14 so that what was spoken by the prophet Isaiah might be fulfilled: 15 “The land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali, the way of the sea, beyond the Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles— 16 the people dwelling in darkness have seen a great light, and for those dwelling in the region and shadow of death, on them a light has dawned.” 17 From that time Jesus began to preach, saying, “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.” 18 While walking by the Sea of Galilee, he saw two brothers, Simon (who is called Peter) and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea, for they were fishermen. 19 And he said to them, “Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.” 20 Immediately they left their nets and followed him. 21 And going on from there he saw two other brothers, James the son of Zebedee and John his brother, in the boat with Zebedee their father, mending their nets, and he called them. 22 Immediately they left the boat and their fa-ther and followed him. 23 And he went throughout all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues and proclaiming the gospel of the kingdom and healing every disease and every affliction among the people. 24 So his fame spread throughout all Syria, and they brought him all the sick, those afflicted with various diseases and pains, those oppressed by demons, those hav-ing seizures, and paralytics, and he healed them. 25 And great crowds followed him from Galilee and the Decapolis, and from Jerusalem and Judea, and from beyond the Jordan.

We've all been there—trying to figure out the exact right way to phrase the text so we sound cool and aloof when actually we've been crying for the last two hours. Anxious attachment style can suuuckkkkk so bad because it's rooted in deep feelings of not being good enough, not trusting people, and not loving ourselves. But what if I told you there's nothing wrong with YOU? Not just to hype you up (which, I'm your forever hype girl), but literally, technically - anxious attachment is a *healthy* response to a *really unhealthy* situation. You're not f*cked up, you're just wounded. In this episode, life coach Jess Taylor joins me to get to the root of healing anxious attachment, so that we can feel freer, more confident, and more excited to live life!Looking for more on anxious attachment?

Skipping School: Gail Harris, Carey Corr, and Colin Smith Fifty-third Episode: The three people who share this episode with me also share an every-Thursday-morning experience on Zoom called The Friendship Bench. Those gatherings, which typically attract between 20 and 30 people, feature a rotation of hosts, each of whom will introduce a topic, say a few words about it, pose a question or two related to it, then send two or more of us into breakout rooms to discuss what's been posed before rejoining the larger group after anywhere from 10 to 20 minutes. On a recent Bench, I was assigned to a breakout room with Gail, Carey, and Colin. After a few minutes, Gail said, “Why don't the four of us stay here and talk and not go back to the big group?” I called that skipping school. And here we are. Gail is a certified ghostwriter specializing in women's memoirs and an IPNE Book Award Finalist for the memoir, Finding Zoe. She collaborates with women who've risen above life's challenges and are ready to share their journeys. Gail reveres the cathartic nature of storytelling — for the authors and for those who read their stories — because the healing is universal. She finds the gold in an author's story or what sets it apart from other stories to make it marketable. Gail is also the author of the self-help book, Your Heart Knows the Answer. Her company is Golden Ghostwriting. Carey creates narrative films that engage, entertain, enlighten, and connect with others who share the goal of using the power of film to move humanity forward. An experienced writer and director with a long history in the entertainment industry, he's skilled in music videos, feature films, documentaries, and independent film. He has a bachelor's degree in Film/Cinema/Video Studies from UC Irvine. His website is here. Colin, affectionately known as The Listener, has an innate ability to deeply listen. His intention is to help as many people as possible become one percent better at listening, rather than trying to improve one person by 100 percent. Though we're increasingly connected digitally, loneliness, suicide, and mental health issues, continue to rise because fewer people feel truly heard or valued. We seek to know we matter, to belong, to be able to share our thoughts and feelings without fear, and to know our contributions are valued. Colin has more than 20 years of experience facilitating, coaching, and guiding conversations. His company is Dexterity Solutions. Please join us for some engaging conversation and some respectful listening.

If you think AI is all about saving time and cutting corners, think again. In this conversation with futurist Bob Johansen, we explore how AI can be used as a thinking partner - to help you generate ideas, build clarity, and make better decisions in a chaotic, unpredictable world.

The Love, Happiness and Success Podcast With Dr. Lisa Marie Bobby
This episode originally aired on April 3, 2023 (Episode 343), and we're bringing it back because it resonated with so many of you. Whether you're reflecting on a past relationship, navigating one right now, or supporting clients through these dynamics, the lessons are worth revisiting. Why are people with anxious attachment styles and avoidant attachment styles drawn to each other? Can anxious-avoidant relationships work, and most importantly, can they be healthy and satisfying? Yes, they can. But the key is through your understanding of yourself, and of your partner. When you develop true understanding and empathy for your differences, you can create profound connection, and a genuinely secure and healing relationship for both of you. This episode is going to show you how. If you're in an anxious-avoidant relationship, or have been in one before, I hope it helps you understand these dynamics from a new perspective, and empowers you to move toward greater connection and security.

Loneliness is one of the most universal human experiences—yet it can feel so personal and isolating when you're in it.In this episode, I'm breaking down the different shapes loneliness can take:The empty nest season when your kids move out.The kind of loneliness that lingers even when you're surrounded by people.The ache of wishing for deeper friendships or more genuine connection.We'll talk about why loneliness isn't always a “problem to fix,” but instead a signal with both pros and cons. You'll hear how emotional intelligence can help you:Recognize the root of your loneliness.Sit with the emotion without letting it consume you.Create self-awareness, connection, and grace in the process.Whether your life is full and busy or you're quietly longing for deeper relationships, this conversation will help you see loneliness through a new lens—one that leaves you feeling more equipped, not more alone.
The myths sound like:“Debt is always bad.”“You have to work harder, not smarter, to get rich.”“Investing is only for the wealthy.”“Budgeting means you can't enjoy life.”But when you start living by myths instead of facts, you end up broke and anxious—two things no man wants to be.

In this episode, we dive deep into the unexpected dark side of fitness tracking technology.

What We Discuss The Oura Ring Confession Why one host ditched their beloved fitness tracker after years of use The surprising relationship between data obsession and anxiety When "helpful" technology becomes a source of stress The Data Trap How checking your readiness score first thing in the morning affects your entire day The disconnect between how you actually feel vs. what your device tells you Why we've become fortune tellers using sleep and HRV data Your Body's Built-In Feedback System The information your body provides that no device can measure How civilization functioned for thousands of years without sleep tracking Why we've stopped trusting our own physical sensations The Obsession Cycle Signs that your fitness tracker has crossed from helpful to harmful The difference between awareness and compulsion When tracking becomes another form of self-abandonment Body vs. Brain Intelligence Why 95% of your subconscious mind lives in your body, not your head The tree metaphor: symptoms, behaviors, and root causes How chronic stress shows up in physical form The Whisper vs. The Scream How your body tries to communicate before things get serious Why we ignore subtle signals until they become impossible to miss The progression from anxiety to chronic symptoms Key Questions Explored What are you actually doing with all that health data? How has tracking changed your relationship with your body? When did we decide external metrics matter more than internal wisdom? What happens when you stop checking and start feeling?
