If the "happiest time of the year" feels complicated, you're not alone. The holidays can stir up a lot of emotion and family stress. But it doesn't have to be that way.

Ever notice how you can know what you need… yet still feel unable to follow through?That gap — between what you know and what you do — is almost never a mindset problem.It's a nervous system pattern.And as we head into the holidays — a time that amplifies emotional labor, invisible load, family dynamics, and patterned responsibility — your body's old beliefs tend to get louder, not quieter.Today's episode uncovers five core beliefs that keep high-achieving women stuck, not because you're doing anything wrong, but because your nervous system learned these beliefs as a way to keep you safe.Inside this episode, we explore:✔️ Why you say yes when you're already at capacity✔️ The neuroscience behind “I know better… but I still do it”✔️ The five survival beliefs your nervous system holds onto (and the unmet safety needs underneath each one)✔️ Somatically aligned reframes your body can genuinely believe, integrate, and trust✔️ Tiny nervous-system practices to shift these patterns in real time — especially during holiday stress, family pressure, or emotional overwhelmThis episode isn't about forcing confidence, using willpower, or repeating affirmations your body doesn't believe.It's about understanding your physiology — so your choices finally feel possible.Because when your nervous system feels safe?✨ Boundaries become easier.✨ Your “yes” becomes honest.✨ Your “no” becomes grounded.✨ The pressure to perform, please, and overfunction softens.✨ You move through the holidays with more clarity, calm, and capacity.If you've spent years being the dependable one… the capable one… the woman who “can handle anything”… this episode will feel like relief, recognition, and an exhale your body has been waiting for.- Join the Burnout Recovery Blueprint Waitlist!

Feel like working from home with kids is a constant juggling act, and you're dropping balls left and right? More dads than ever are navigating the chaos of Zoom calls interrupted by tiny voices, endless snack requests, and the struggle to be present both at work AND at home at all times. Thankfully, in this episode we're joined by social media strategist Thom Gibson, founder of Work From Home Dads, and proud father of two young kids. After a decade spent teaching middle school math and robotics, Thom made the leap—leaving the classroom to build new businesses (and memories) from his home office. His story is packed with insights on boosting productivity, improving daily and weekly routines, and mastering the real work-life blend for dads.

Ep. 223 The holidays can be magical… but they can also be messy. In this week's episode, host Maryann Rivera-Dannert gets real about what it means to move through the season when you're juggling joy, healing, family expectations, and sometimes grief. Whether you're celebrating new beginnings or sitting with old wounds, Maryann offers a heartfelt reminder:You're allowed to feel it all. Drawing from her own experiences as a life and confidence coach, she breaks down how to:

TALK TO ME, TEXT ITA bar that feels unsafe, a marriage that feels smaller by the year, and a love that speaks only in dreams—today we wade into the gray areas where real life actually happens. We read three striking Dear Abby letters and respond with straight talk on boundaries, autonomy, and the tender mess of grief that lingers after lights out. No fluff, no easy answers, just a clear look at what people can do when the polite path stops working.First, we unpack a friend group that keeps choosing a restaurant tied to a listener's past trauma—a “jolly bar guy” who once broke into her home. We talk about the difference between preference and protection, why “get over it” is not empathy, and how to choose venues and friends that don't trivialize PTSD. The takeaways are simple and strong: boundaries are valid, opting out is healthy, and social circles reveal their values through their choices.Then we step into a marriage where one partner has scorched the social earth. Is he depressed, overmedicated, or just done with small talk? Instead of waiting for an epiphany, we make the case for parallel lives: encourage medical care and therapy if he's willing, and build your own community regardless. A loving partnership can include separate calendars, new hobbies, and dinners with people who refill your energy.Finally, we sit with the rawness of a husband who sleep-talks to a late ex. Dreams aren't decisions, but they can hurt to hear. We share practical tools—sleep environment tweaks, gentle wake-ups, honest daytime check-ins—and the bigger reminder that grief and new love can coexist without canceling each other out.We close on a lighter note with a classic TV debate—Seinfeld, Cheers, MASH, Wings—and invite your pick. If this kind of candid, caring breakdown resonates, follow the show, share it with a friend who needs a boundary boost, and drop a review telling us your all-time sitcom champ.Buzzsprout - Let's get your podcast launched!Start for FREE Thanks for listening!

Send us a textEpisode 692: People pleasers and all people listen up!Surprisingly, boundaries don't push people away, they actually strengthen connection. Dr. Alison Ash returns to unpack sexual boundaries, especially for those who struggle to say no.Boundaries aren't just about your values; they're about your capacity, the fluctuating energy and resources available to you based on sleep, stress, and nervous system regulation. When you're dysregulated and operating outside your window of tolerance, you become reactive and frustrated. (Most of us consistently overestimate what we can handle.)Dr. Aly shares a practical three-part formula for setting boundaries that helps others feel heard rather than rejected.Key Takeaways:• Boundaries aren't selfish, they're based on your actual capacity, which fluctuates daily based on sleep, stress, and nervous system regulation, making them a realistic necessity rather than a character flaw.• The "window of tolerance" explains why you get reactive. When dysregulated, you become irritable and struggle to enforce boundaries, so managing your nervous system is as important as stating your limits.• Healthy boundaries actually filter out unhealthy relationships, meaning people who respect your "no" strengthen the relationship, while those who don't reveal incompatibility, not rejection of them as people.Discussion topics;Sexuality, sexual health, sexual wellness, relationships, mental healthUnderstanding Your Capacity and Setting/maintaining Healthy Boundaries without guilt and while maintaining connection Feeling Safe Saying No Builds TrustUnderstanding Trauma and Nervous System DysregulationManaging Trauma Response Through Nervous System CareCommunication and Pacing in Exploring KinkSubstance Use and Consent in Sexual ExplorationLearning From Past Experiences and Building Intimacy SkillsSex Gets Better With Age and ConfidenceConnect with Dr. Aly:Sexual and Emotional Intimacy Skills online course on Tues, Jan 27th-Mar 17thWe all receive messages about who we are supposed to be, how we ought to feel, and how we should express ourselves, often enforced through shame and disconnection.

ABOUT THE EPISODE:Author and therapist, Nicole Runyon, LMSW, witnessed something that reshaped her entire career: loving, intact families were producing children with trauma-like symptoms typically identified in severe abuse survivors. As a therapist watching teen after teen struggle with paralyzing anxiety and digital-age depression, she recognized she was working too far downstream. The revelation was both sobering and hopeful—these weren't organic mental health crises, but environmental challenges that parents could actually address. Her decision to leave a thriving therapy practice (complete with a multi-year waitlist) to educate parents directly speaks to a profound truth: we have far more power than we think, especially when we understand that saying "no" is actually an act of love.The statistics Nicole shares in this episode might make you squirm with recognition: mothers average just 120 minutes daily with their children while logging 4+ hours of screen time. But here's where her message becomes beautifully uncomfortable - through her own "I fell for it" moment rescuing her daughter from a forgetful incident, Nicole illuminates how our discomfort with our children's discomfort actually impedes their growth. What You'll Learn in This Episode:Why "no" is the ultimate act of loveHow digital rejection can create personality-disorder-like traits in neurotypical teens, especially girls The optimal three-to-nine year old window for connection (but it's never too late)“Asked and answered": Your new boundary mantraHow to move from convenience to connectionEPISODE RESOURCES:“Free To Fly: Fostering Independence In The Next Generation” - Nicole's bookParent Coaching with NicoleThis podcast is part of a nonprofit called Hopestream CommunityLearn about The Stream, our private online community for momsFind us on Instagram hereFind us on YouTube hereDownload a free e-book, Worried Sick: A Compassionate Guide For Parents When Your Teen or Young Adult Child Misuses Drugs and AlcoholHopestream Community is a registered 501(c)3 nonprofit organization and an Amazon Associate.

Any takeaways from this episode?Welcome to the Rom-Com Rescue Holiday Extravaganza!  Six holiday rom-coms over the next six weeks!Conscious uncoupling, gingerbread throwdowns, one last “totally normal” family Christmas, inconvenient new crushes… and Pearson Fodé in candy-cane underwear. That's right. We went there.This week on RomCom Rescue, Kira and Dr. Izzy break down Netflix's brand-new 2025 holiday rom-com Merry Little Ex-Mas starring Alicia Silverstone, Oliver Hudson, Jamila Jamil, and Pierson Fode— and let's just say: It is was rough for us.Not magical. Not cozy. Not even Hot Frosty-level cute.But it is full of relationship red flags, questionable choices, unmatched chaos, and enough emotional immaturity to keep two therapists busy until 2028.We cover:

The economy and uncertainty around spending are huge hurdles for the average consumer going into the holidays. People often lean on their credit cards to make those Christmases that much better, but there is a better way. We invite Mori Paulsen, Bank of America Utah President, to talk about how families can set spending boundaries and communicate when it comes to giving gifts to lessen the impact on their wallets.

Best friends Amanda Millie and Amelia Fergusson return after a two-year break with a fresh, unfiltered reboot of Name To Be Determined. In this comeback episode, they reintroduce themselves, reflect on how much they've grown, and dive into the realities of modern dating, self-worth, and setting boundaries in relationships. They share their weekly “turning or grinding” moments, unpack performative friendships, and laugh about everything from weather-induced seasonal depression to the chaos of being women trying to navigate adulthood. The pair open up about the evolution of their 20-year friendship, what they've learned in the time off, and their big (slightly delulu) dreams for the future — including live shows. A raw, funny, and honest reset for longtime listeners and new ones alike.  

In this powerful episode of Talking With Kevin & Son, Kevin sits down with a transformational strategist who teaches the world how to break cycles, exit survival mode, and rebuild life with purpose, clarity, and emotional sovereignty.From boardrooms to breakdowns to breakthroughs, today's guest shares how she turned her own reinvention into a global movement helping people rewrite limiting beliefs, heal identity wounds, and create a life that reflects their highest potential.This conversation reframes reinvention as a courageous spiritual and psychological process — one that requires honesty, discipline, boundaries, and a willingness to outgrow who you used to be.

Lead Counsel for former Chief Justice Gertrude Torkornoo's legal team, Ayikoi Otoo Esq., has stated that the Executive did not respect the boundaries of its authority by swearing in a new Chief Justice.

1. Best coaching advice you've gotten?Burnout revealed his limits — realizing boundaries are essential.Reframing resilience: strength isn't always pushing through.Knowing your edges can actually serve you as a coach. 2. What are you still trying to improve about your coaching?Building consistency in reflection practice.Shifting from second-guessing to learning and growth.Allowing grace and patience when reviewing sessions. 3. Most outrageous thing you've done, tried, or said in a coaching session?Jokingly told a client, “You care too much.”Boldly told another client, “I don't believe you,” when evidence didn't match her words.Used blunt honesty paired with trust and humor to spark insight. 4. What still makes you squirm or uncomfortable in a coaching session?Turning up the heat when clients blame others.Calling out patterns without overstepping into judgment.Finding balance between observation and blunt challenge. 5. If I were new to coaching or considering being a coach, what advice would you have?Always start with why someone wants to coach.Trust your intuition instead of over-orchestrating sessions.Relax and allow conversations to flow naturally. 6. What is something you've had to conquer on your path to being a great coach?Learning to set boundaries on workload and availability.Avoiding oversubscription that compromises client quality.Accepting courage is required to say “no” or pause. 7. Are you using AI in your coaching practice, if so how?AI helps with mock and case interviews for clients.Offers structure for problem-solving but math needs double-checking.Still more of a supplement than a core coaching tool. 8. What have you learned about yourself through being a coach?Struggles mirror clients' challenges — self-awareness is key.Patience with self is harder than patience with others.Coaching continues to deepen listening and presence. Fun Question: Do you have a bad haircut story?'80s “big hair” that grew outward like a chia pet.A regrettable pencil-thin mustache in college.A short-lived goatee experiment at graduation.

Explore all YIR shows and exclusive interviews: https://www.yachtinginternationalradio.com In this grounded and deeply honest episode of Self-Care with Geraldine Hardy, recorded in rural Thailand during monsoon season, Geraldine reflects on the moments that matter — the subtle turning points that define who we become. Speaking from her five-month retreat, she explores why intuition, boundaries, and conscious decision-making form the foundation of true self-care. From saying “yes” when your entire body said “no” to closing long-standing chapters that have repeated the same lessons, Geraldine guides you back to responsibility, awareness, and inner clarity. You'll learn: - How “subtle moments” can make or break your path - Why ignoring intuition repeats cycles and creates unnecessary suffering - How to reset your nervous system after the season - Why closing doors — even difficult ones — restores self-respect - How solitude, nature, and raw environments sharpen inner wisdom ✨ Geraldine's message: When you honour your intuition and close the doors that must be closed, life responds with alignment, respect, and ease.

Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Dr. Stephanie Wall. Purpose of the Interview To share Dr. Wall’s expertise as a neuroscience coach, criminal justice professor, author, and mentor. To discuss her mission through 1 Million Lives Transform, a global movement helping women unmute their voices and lead with authenticity and confidence. To provide actionable strategies for overcoming self-doubt, fear, and imposter syndrome in professional and personal settings. Key Takeaways Background and Roles Served 20 years in law enforcement and continues teaching criminal justice and ethical leadership. Founder of 1 Million Lives Transform, focused on empowering women to reclaim their voices. Unmuting Your Voice Many professionals mute themselves due to fear, lack of confidence, or imposter syndrome. Techniques: Awareness: Recognize when you’re silencing yourself. Pause and breathe before responding. Stand up when speaking in meetings to command attention and project confidence. Use phrases like “I’d like to build on that point” to engage respectfully. Mindset and Fear What you tell yourself matters more than external criticism. Replace negative self-talk with affirmations and surround yourself with positive influences. Neuroscience supports that repeated positive input rewires thought patterns. Boundaries and Time Management Learn to say “No” as a complete sentence. Set boundaries for phone calls and social interactions to protect productivity. Busy professionals should establish communication rules (e.g., “Do you have a minute?”). Authenticity and Leadership Authenticity is key—embrace your natural gifts and use them to transform spaces. Leadership requires mindset shifts when moving from peer to manager roles. Mentorship should be intentional and specific, not generic (“pick your brain” requests need structure). 1 Million Lives Transform A movement to help women rewrite their narratives, reclaim confidence, and lead boldly. Focus on self-awareness, boundaries, and empowerment strategies. Notable Quotes “Notice in that moment that you are muting yourself.” “Stand up when you speak—you command the room.” “No is a complete sentence.” “Our gifts are not for us; they are for other people.” “What you say to yourself does more damage than anything anyone else could say.” “Authenticity isn’t lip service—it’s showing up as who you truly are.” “Boundaries are not selfish; they are necessary.” #SHMS #STRAW #BESTSupport the show: https://www.steveharveyfm.com/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode, I'm sitting down with Gilly, the founder of Gilly's Organics and the host of Everyday Rock Stars. Her story is wild - in the best way! Gilly went from freelancing for huge brands like Estée Lauder, Clinique, Jo Malone, and Aveda… to suddenly losing the client that made up most of her work. Instead of going back to corporate, she followed this little spark she always had for mixing things, creating products, and helping people feel good in their skin. We talk about how Gilly's Organics actually started (spoiler: a DIY scrub and a friend who believed in her), how she got her products into Whole Foods for eight straight years, what pushed her to expand from one product to a full nine-product line, how losing her mom changed everything, how her love for storytelling led to the Everyday Rock Stars podcast, the confidence, grit, and mindset pieces entrepreneurs never talk about, what she does when self-doubt creeps in, and the movement and routines that keep her grounded. This one is full of honesty, hustle, heart, and that "just start" energy so many of us need. If you're building something of your own or thinking about it - this episode is such a reminder that passion + consistency can take you further than you think!

In this powerful and deeply personal conversation, we meet Lori Pappas, one of the first female computer sales reps in the world, an award-winning entrepreneur, and founder of the Global Team for Local Initiatives, where she spent over a decade in Africa helping more than 100,000 people.After years of chasing success, Lori discovered that the true magic of life comes from saying yes—yes to forgiveness, boundaries, curiosity, and self-discovery. Her journey inspired the D.R.E.A.M.

The holiday season often brings a swirl of emotions, from resurfacing grief and gift-giving pressures to expectations of gratitude amid stress.

These reflections offer guidance for moving through the season with greater authenticity and strength.In this episode of Mindset Unlimited, I share some holiday reflections for navigating grief, gifts, and gratitude with intention and mindfulness.Some of what I explore in this episode includes:Navigating grief and loss during the holiday season with practical emotional support strategiesMindful and meaningful holiday gift-giving, including setting healthy boundariesEmbracing mindful spending and supporting financial well-beingPracticing gratitude, hope, and courage to cultivate authentic connections and community support during holidays Have thoughts or questions about this episode?

202 Want to make sure you aren't settling for unfair treatment, letting your partner's hurtful behavior fly, passively just “taking” your partners rudeness, or being a doormat? Want to stand up for yourself and proactively make sure you get the BEST treatment from your spouse, not just the scraps? Ever wondered if what I share on this podcast lets your spouse get away with too much? This episode is for YOU!!!You'll learn how, for the best marriage possible with your spouse,  you need to develop both a soft belly, and a strong back. In other words, you need an emotional skillset that allows for true open-heartedness (instead of reactivity and defensiveness) AND you need to take specific strategic "strong" actions that prevent any poor treatment and GET the loving treatment you deserve in your marriage. I generally teach more about the soft belly piece, because you can't do the strong back piece well without it–and this part does NOT get enough attention in the relationship advice/self-help world… BUT the strong back pieces (i.e. specific actions and strategies) are 100% essential, too, to have a great marriage.So listen in today to hear what those “strong back” strategies are, and how you can learn more about implementing them, and what you must also be able to do in order for them to create a truly loving connected marriage (instead of a roommate or business-partner type relationship of cold functionality). The magic lies in the combination of both a strong back and a soft belly, not one by itself.

Alright, Mita is back with us on the pod. We're talking bad bosses, bad employees, bad attitudes and how to break the cycle of feeling bad at work. Here's the rundown of what we're talking about today at WORK. * Work friction is rising because roles, priorities, and expectations are unclear.* Layoffs create survivor guilt and overwhelm for the people who stay.* Leaders often skip rewriting roles or resetting priorities after org changes.* Ambiguity grows when bosses avoid conflict or lack clear direction from above.* Weekly priority meetings and repeat back communication cut through confusion.* Managing up is essential. Employees must surface gaps and ask for clarity.* Weak or absentee bosses create space for employees to lead and accelerate.* One on ones matter. Bring value so they never get canceled.* Boundaries break when people step into others' jobs to avoid their own.* Remote work increases miscommunication without consistent rituals and tools.* Generational tension stems from different eras of job security and loyalty.* Cross generational teams work best when everyone teaches and learns from each other.To learn more about Mita - Get her book “The Devil Emails at Midnight: What Good Leaders Can Learn From Bad Bosses.” This is WORK Conversations.

Tucker Carlson's interview with right-wing provocateur podcaster Nick Fuentes has the conservative movement fighting over what the definition of “canceling” is and struggling to determine if there are cases in which it is called for. If so, was the Fuentes interview one of them? Victor Davis Hanson states there is a fine line between “canceling” and “deplatforming,” and it all has to do with how the platformer handles the issue they're amplifying. He breaks down this dichotomy and explains where he believes Carlson went wrong on this episode of “Victor Davis Hanson: In a Few Words.” “ When you don't invite Nick Fuentes on your program, it doesn't mean that you're canceling him. It doesn't mean that you're deplatforming him because he's beyond the pale. And you say, ‘Well, who are you to say that, Victor?' Well, I'm not Victor saying that. There are accepted norms—that you don't use the N-word, or you don't call for people to go back to Israel, if they're Jewish, or you don't make fun of people's race in the public sphere, the way he did. You can do that, of course, under the First Amendment, but you're not invited into acceptable venues to vent those views and to spread hate.” (0:00) Platforming vs. Canceling (2:15) Debating Extremists (3:54) Tucker Carlson's Skills (4:27) Norms and Boundaries in Media (5:42) Tucker Carlson's Recent Controversies (6:54) Conclusion
