Podcasts about Beyond Survival

So many women are doing all the “right” things: healing, manifesting, investing in growth and still feel stuck when it comes to love, money, and fully living their purpose. We were indoctrinated and conditioned to thing we need to do more, be more consistent, be more hustle-minded, do it right-er, lol. It's actually none of that.It's survival consciousness running beneath the surface and we get to deprogramme all that.In this episode, I name five major survival codes that live in the subconscious and energy body and quietly shape how we relate, earn, choose, and play small even when we deeply desire more.We explore how these codes form, how they show up differently in love, wealth, and purpose, and why willpower alone can't override them. This is about awareness, embodiment, and learning to recognize when survival is driving your decisions instead of sovereignty. Then I give 5 anchors that will help you enter the deprogramming while loving on yourself.******Do you feel called to join the Phoenix Goddess Collective? Let's talk about it.

In this episode, we are continuing the series on moving from courage to alignment by exploring the deeply ingrained "strong woman" identity — and how survival can quietly shape our leadership, nervous system, and relationship with rest. I share personal reflections on growing up as the emotional rock, living in survival mode, and learning to soften into embodied self-leadership rather than urgency and self-abandonment. In this episode, we explore: What survival really looks like beneath the surface How survival often disguises itself as strength, competence, and responsibility The nervous system patterns behind being "the strong one" Survival leadership vs. self-leadership Why slowing down can feel unsafe — and how to rebuild safety• What embodied energy looks like in daily life and decision-making How to trust your intuition and inner authority without forcing clarity This episode is for you if you're the one everyone leans on. If thinking about rest makes you feel guilty and if slowing down makes your feel uncomfortable.   How to work withe me:   Learn more about one-on-one coaching -> Align Coaching Group mastermind & coaching -> Align & Empower   Let's Connect:   Find me on Instagram -> @andreacrispcoach Find me on Insight Timer -> Free Meditations Find me on the Web -> andreacrisp.ca   If this episode resonated, pleases share it with someone who needs the reminder that they don't have to be the strong one.   Original Music and Production By Stephen Crilly.

What happens when grief arrives all at once—and refuses to follow the rules?In this deeply moving episode of Female Voices: Life & Loss, host Teresa Reiniger sits down with Mon Trice Williams (aka Poet Emma Dree)—a widow, mother, poet, author, and curator of healing spaces—who shares how losing her mother, husband, and five other family members within single year reshaped everything she thought she knew about grief, self-care, and resilience.Rather than trying to “fix” her grief, Mon Trice learned to listen to it—and what emerged was a powerful philosophy: self-care isn't a one-time rescue, it's a sustainable network. Through poetry, interactive open mics, serenity suppers, and immersive writing experiences, Mon Trice now creates healing spaces that help people process grief, identity shifts, and loss—together.This episode is a must-listen for anyone navigating grief, burnout, widowhood, or emotional overwhelm—and for those who feel pressure to be “high-functioning” while silently unraveling.

In this episode of The Observatory Podcast, hosts Scott and LaRae Wright sit down with Bobby Ahlander for an expansive and deeply human conversation about suffering, healing, and what it means to truly come home to yourself. Bobby shares his journey growing up in a rigid religious environment marked by instability and fear, living much of his adult life on “autopilot,” and eventually reaching a breaking point that included leaving the Church, divorce, job loss, and a prolonged season of depression with suicidal ideation.Through therapy, psychiatry, EMDR, Buddhist study, and eventually plant medicine, Bobby describes the slow and nonlinear rebuilding of his inner world. He introduces a personal “numbers” framework that helped him track emotional states — from survival, to “fine,” to happiness, joy, bliss, and ultimately a state he later names cosmic union. At the heart of this conversation is the embodied realization that arrived not through force or fixing, but through surrender: peace feels good.Timestamps [01:10] Introducing Bobby Ahlander and the theme “peace feels good”[04:05] Childhood in a conservative religious home marked by instability[08:45] Learning invisibility, safety, and survival as a child[14:55] Living adulthood on “autopilot” and inherited identity scripts[20:15] Becoming a bishop and the weight of enforcing institutional rules[25:35] LGBTQ+ policy conflict and values colliding with authority[31:50] Leaving the Church, divorce, and relocation all at once[36:40] Wiping the slate clean and questioning every belief[41:05] First acts of autonomy and reclaiming personal choice[46:00] Discovering Buddhism and non-dual thinking[51:40] First psilocybin experience and expanded awareness[58:45] COVID, job loss, unhealthy relationship, and emotional collapse[01:05:40] Suicidal ideation and surviving for his children[01:12:30] Therapy, medication, and the “numbers” emotional scale[01:20:10] Ayahuasca: opening a door that never closes[01:27:30] Integration, healing, and learning to live at “fine”[01:33:40] Oregon coast turning point and happiness returning[01:38:10] Discovering joy, bliss, and something beyond the scale[01:41:00] Embodied peace, “peace feels good,” and what comes next[01:41:58] Closing message and listener invitationNotable Quotes“You have just opened a door that can never close again.” — Scott Webb (quoted by Bobby Ahlander) [00:36:08]“I don't want to die, but I don't want to be alive.” — Bobby Ahlander [00:31:58]“The whole choice to awake puts you on a path.” — Scott Wright [01:13:33]“So we honor you for being there and being able to express that.” — LaRae Wright [01:29:42]“The cost of the new is the old.” — Scott Wright [01:32:36]“Turbulence is just a reminder you're flying.” — Bobby Ahlander [01:34:42]“You will continue to suffer until you've learned the lesson that the suffering is trying to teach you.” — Bobby Ahlander [01:38:18]“This is peace.” — Bobby Ahlander [01:23:57]“Peace feels good.” — Bobby Ahlander [01:25:01]Relevant LinksBobby's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bobbyahlander/Subscribe to the podcast: Apple Podcasts

Happy Mindful Monday, Everyone!In this week's epsiode, host Allie Brooke sits down with the inspirational. Eileen Jimenez. Eileen  is a holistic coach, speaker, and writer devoted to helping people step into lives rooted in confidence, connection, and authenticity. With a background in corporate finance and a lifelong passion for personal growth, she knows what it's like to look put-together on the outside while feeling guarded and disconnected within.Growing up, Eileen learned that independence was necessary and vulnerability came with risk. She built walls to protect herself—only to realize those same walls were keeping her from the love, freedom, and fulfillment she truly longed for. Her journey from self-protection to self-acceptance became the foundation for Soft Armor. Today, Eileen guides others through that same transformation: helping them release what no longer serves them, reconnect with their truth, and redefine what it really means to be strong. She holds a Professional Certified Coach (PCC) credential through the International Coaching Federation (ICF) and has supported countless individuals in healing past wounds, rewriting their inner narratives, and learning to trust themselves again. When she's not coaching, writing, or speaking, you'll find her deepening her spiritual practice through meditation, exploring new corners of the world, and finding beauty in the simple moments that make life meaningful.Episode TopicsThe idea of "learning to protect yourself without closing or hardening your heart" is so profound. What does it truly mean to protect your boundaries and well-being while maintaining an open, vulnerable heart?What are some common ways people mistakenly try to protect themselves that lead to a hardened heart or emotional isolation?Can you share some practical, immediate strategies for someone who feels they've become guarded to begin the process of softening their heart while still feeling safe?How does discerning true threat from perceived threat play a role in being able to protect yourself effectively without closing off?What are the key indicators or feelings that tell someone they are operating predominantly from a place of "survival mode"?What does it practically mean to step into a "more feminine, intuitive, and magnetic way of living and leading"? What are some first steps a woman can take to embody this shift?Why do we often confuse self-sufficiency with emotional avoidance, and what are the societal pressures or narratives that contribute to this confusion?What are the hidden costs or downsides of believing you must do everything alone and never appear "weak" by needing others?How To Connect w| Eileenhttps://www.softarmor.net/https://www.lifecraftmastery.com/ The Growth METHOD.

What if your body held the blueprint for abundance?In this conversation with Anna Finck, we explore the inner work of wealth—how interoception, nervous system regulation, and embodied awareness expand your capacity to both receive and sustain prosperity. Together, we unpack the shift from survival to expansion, the courage it takes to leave certainty behind, and why curiosity is often the first step toward true abundance.If you've ever felt like your mind wants wealth but your body still lives in survival mode, this episode offers the bridge between the two.✨ You'll learn:How interoception connects health, wealth, and expansionWhy safety in your body precedes sustainable successThe difference between chasing abundance and allowing itHow following curiosity can become your most abundant strategyAnna (Ah-nah) Finck (Fee-nck) is a Wellness Architect and Lifestyle Designer who is pioneering an innovative path in the wellness space. She has created a body of work called Embodied Wellness designed to transform the body, mind, and soul. Embodied Wellness is both science and spirituality, art and alchemy. In essence, it is where wellness and personal growth collide. Anna supports clients through a transformational embodiment and empowerment journey, one that she lived herself. After stepping away from medical school due to personal and family health crises, Anna committed herself to an unconventional, long-term and complex study of wellness. She healed her own hormonal imbalances, digestive issues, and reproductive health conditions naturally, despite the odds and lack of evidence. Anna coined the term “Pre-Conception Era” to describe a sacred, often-overlooked phase of a woman's life: the time before conception, when she prepares physically, energetically mentally, emotionally, and spiritually to become the woman—and mother—she's designed to be. Anna is devoted to supporting women in reconnecting to their bodies, reclaiming their health, remembering their power, and realizing their potential.Connect with Anna:https://www.instagram.com/iamannafinckhttps://www.facebook.com/iamannafinckhttps://www.annafinck.com✨ Sacred Boundaries: Scripts for Saying No with Love ✨If you've ever felt the pressure to say “yes” when your whole body was begging you to say “no,” you're not alone. So many high-achieving, heart-centered women struggle with guilt, fear of disappointing others, or worry that boundaries will push people away.But the truth is: boundaries don't break relationships—they strengthen them.

Many of us find ourselves caught in a whirlwind of stress and anxiety, feeling perpetually overloaded and braced for the next challenge. I share my personal insights on the notion of survival mode—an all-too-frequent mindset in our fast-paced lives—as well as my experiences of navigating significant changes and the overwhelming effects of modern life on our mental well-being.I explore the various forces that contribute to our stress accumulation, drawing comparisons between the frantic rhythm of today's world and the more leisurely pace of the past. While chronic stress can manifest through numerous pathways, it is crucial to identify how the constant barrage of information and responsibilities heightens our anxiety. The ceaseless demand for our attention, whether from relentless news updates or notifications from our devices, keeps our nervous system in a heightened state of alertness. This leads to an ongoing cycle where small irritants trigger disproportionate responses, indicating that we might be dwelling in survival mode.Throughout the episode, I offer practical strategies to shift our experience from one of relentless reactivity to a more measured and intentional response to life's demands. I emphasize the importance of mindful pauses, suggesting a simple yet effective two-second pause to recalibrate our minds before reacting to various stimuli. This brief moment of reflection can significantly retrain our nervous system and mitigate stress.#AnxietyCoachesPodcast#AnxietyRelief#StressManagement#MindfulLiving#InnerPeace#ReclaimYourCalm#MentalWellness#SelfCare#BeyondSurvivalMode#GinaRyan#AnxietyCoach#FindYourCalm#StressLess#CopingSkills#EmotionalRegulation#MindBodyConnection#BreathingTechniques#DigitalDetox#LiveInTheMoment#MindfulnessPractice#WellnessJourney#PersonalDevelopment#ACPSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

When JD answered the call to serve his country after 9/11, he couldn't have imagined the battles that lay ahead, not just in Iraq's dangerous terrain but within his own body. This extraordinary conversation takes us through his journey as an Army soldier driving fuel trucks through the early chaos of the Iraq War, his transition to law enforcement where he dangled off a six-story building to save a suicidal man, and his most personal fight: battling stage 4 cancer that attacked his testicle, lungs, and brain.The conversation reveals not just survival, but transformation. JD's cancer battle inspired him to create Thin Blue Ride, a nonprofit that is doing the Lord's work for veterans and first responders battling cancer. His achievements defy medical expectations, from competing in grueling physical competitions to trekking to Everest Base Camp with compromised lung function.Perhaps most powerful are the practical insights JD offers for anyone facing cancer or supporting someone who is. He discusses the importance of early detection, knowing your body, being your own medical advocate, and finding purpose through hardship. His recently published book "Beyond Survival" chronicles this remarkable journey.JD's story forces us to confront uncomfortable statistics, 5,600 Americans diagnosed with cancer daily and over half a million Global War on Terror veterans now living with cancer, while providing resources that could save lives. For veterans, first responders, cancer patients, or anyone seeking inspiration, this episode demonstrates how our greatest challenges can become our most meaningful contributions to others.Visit thinblueride.org to learn more about JD's organization, Thin Blue Ride, or to contact him directly if you're battling cancer or know someone who is. As he reminds us, sometimes the most healing thing we can do is share our story.

Durante la Guerra de Vietnam, el capitán Gerald Coffee pasó más de siete años como prisionero de guerra en la tristemente célebre prisión de Hoa Lo, conocida como el “Hanoi Hilton”. En su celda, talló una pequeña cruz en la pared con un fragmento de metal. Esa cruz se convirtió en su ancla espiritual. Años después, al ser liberado, relató su historia en su libro Beyond Survival y en conferencias internacionales. La cruz no estaba en una iglesia, ni en su cuello, sino grabada en la soledad de una celda. Aun en el cautiverio, Dios estaba presente. No hay lugar donde la cruz de Cristo no pueda ser plantada como en la cárcel, en la enfermedad o en la ansiedad. Tú también puedes tallar una cruz en medio de tu oscuridad. No como símbolo de derrota, sino de esperanza. La cruz no solo recuerda lo que Cristo sufrió, sino lo que venció. La Biblia dice en 1 Corintios 1:18: “Porque la palabra de la cruz es locura a los que se pierden; pero a los que se salvan... es poder de Dios” (RV1960).

You're Allowed to Want More for Yourself: Moving Beyond Survival in OCD & Anxiety RecoverySettling for “just not suffering” keeps you stuck in survival mode. In this episode, Matt Codde, LCSW, explains why raising your standards is essential for true recovery from OCD and anxiety—and how to start living with purpose, peace, and joy.

The whirlwind period many parents know as "May-sember" has finally passed. That chaotic collision of end-of-year recitals, teacher gifts, graduations, and yes, somehow Mother's Day too, leaves many of us emotionally drained but without the space to process what we've experienced. When your child crosses a significant threshold like high school graduation, there's a profound emotional transition happening beneath the surface of all the ceremony preparations. Have you given yourself permission to sit with the complex emotions of seeing your child transform into a young adult? That relationship is evolving in real-time, and acknowledging this shift matters deeply for both of you. The values and truths you've instilled continue as your legacy through them, but the day-to-day reality of your relationship is changing.While many of us practice regular self-care—the daily workouts, meditation sessions, and nature walks that keep us functioning—there's a critical difference between routine maintenance and genuine celebration. After surviving May's marathon of events, you deserve more than just your regular self-care routine. Whether it's scheduling that massage, planning a weekend getaway, enjoying a hotel room in perfect solitude, or finding time for unstructured joy with friends, intentionally celebrating your accomplishments isn't frivolous—it's necessary. Your role in nurturing others through their milestones deserves recognition too. What will you do beyond routine maintenance to truly celebrate yourself? You've earned it, and your emotional wellbeing depends on it. Find what brings you genuine joy and make it happen.

Post-traumatic growth might sound like a stretch when you're in the thick of grief, but it is possible.

This episode dives into what value-based living really means and why it matters so much on your healing journey. Drawing from the work of Dr. Steven Hayes (founder of ACT Therapy) and Brené Brown, Duane and Eric offer practical wisdom on how values serve as your "North Star" during life's storms. Unlike goals that can be checked off, values are ongoing qualities that give your life meaning and direction. The hosts emphasize that valued living isn't about perfection – it's about direction, not destination. Even small steps toward what matters count as success. They also remind listeners that values can evolve over time, especially during challenging experiences that clarify what truly matters. This episode includes a step-by-step walkthrough of a worksheet designed to help you reconnect with your values when you're struggling. From identifying challenges to taking small, intentional actions that realign you with what matters most, Duane and Eric provide a practical roadmap for living authentically even when it's hard. Download The Worksheet Whether you're facing a relapse, dealing with intense emotions, or simply trying to hold your life together, this conversation offers compassionate guidance on using your values as a compass to find your way forward again.

In this episode of the TEMSEA Leadership Podcast, host Eric Clauss speaks with Briana Browne, a suicide survivor who has turned her experience into a life-saving mission. Briana shares her emotional recollection of waking up in the hospital, her road to mental health recovery, and the moment she realized she had survived a nearly impossible fall. She discusses the stigma around suicide, the importance of proper language (saying “died by suicide” instead of “committed suicide”), and how emergency responders and healthcare professionals can better support individuals in crisis. Briana also details her advocacy with the Bridge Barrier Coalition, which successfully implemented a temporary barrier and secured plans for a permanent suicide prevention structure at the Natchez Trace Bridge. Now working with the Trauma Survivors Network at Vanderbilt University Medical Center, she shares how faith, therapy, music, and a strong support system have played a role in her healing. Briana offers powerful words of encouragement for anyone struggling with suicidal thoughts, reminding listeners that hope and help are always available. Understanding the warning signs of mental distress and offering compassionate intervention can make a critical difference, especially for first responders, emergency nurses, and healthcare professionals who often encounter individuals at their lowest moments. Encouraging peer support programs and a culture of mental health openness within emergency services can prevent tragedies and help providers care for themselves as well. Applications for Leaders & Healthcare Professionals: Language Matters: Leaders in EMS, healthcare, and emergency response must use proper terminology—phrases like “died by suicide” instead of “committed suicide” help remove the stigma. Suicide Prevention in Leadership: EMS professionals, hospital staff, and first responders are often the first points of contact for individuals in crisis. Briana's story highlights the importance of trauma-informed care, compassionate response, and proactive mental health initiatives within emergency and healthcare settings. Advocacy & Policy Change: Leaders can use their voices to advocate for safety measures, like bridging barriers, crisis response teams, and mental health access, to prevent future tragedies. The Power of Survivor Stories: Briana's work with Vanderbilt University Medical Center and the Trauma Survivors Network shows how lived experiences can educate and inspire change—an essential lesson for leaders looking to engage survivors in policy and training discussions. Supporting Mental Health in Teams: EMS and healthcare professionals face high-stress environments. This episode reinforces the importance of peer support programs, open conversations about mental health, and suicide prevention resources for those in service. Recognizing Warning Signs & Peer Support in EMS: Emergency responders often witness signs of mental distress in colleagues and patients. Encouraging mental health check-ins, peer support programs, and open discussions can help prevent burnout and crisis escalation. First responders are trained to save lives—that includes their own and those of their peers. Leaders must foster a culture where asking for help is seen as a strength, not a weakness. This episode is more than just a story of survival—it's a call to action for leaders, first responders, and healthcare professionals to challenge the stigma around suicide, implement meaningful prevention strategies, and provide compassionate care to those in crisis.
