What up, Beasts! In this episode, I sat down with the incredible Suyapa, a licensed clinical social worker and fellow eldest daughter who knows all about the pressure of having it all together. She opened up about growing up in a Mexican and Honduran family, caring for her siblings who live with disabilities and mental health challenges, and what it means to carry adult responsibilities before you even hit your teen years. We talked about what it's like to be the one who always holds it down, the emotional weight that comes with that role, and how it shapes our relationships, our bodies, and our sense of self.This one hit me in the feels. Suyapa and I got real about hyper-independence, loneliness, and how healing starts when we finally give ourselves permission to ask for help. We also dove into how our past can mess with our self-trust, and how unlearning old narratives takes serious patience and compassion. Whether you're navigating your own healing, supporting a family member, or just trying to figure out who you are under all the pressure, this episode will remind you that you're not alone, and that connection really can be medicine.As always, I hope something lands with you today. I hope something you hear tugs at your heart strings and/or I hope you laugh.Bio: Suyapa is a trauma-informed, culturally responsive licensed clinical social worker therapist who specializes in working with BIPOC adults navigating the complexities of having disabled siblings or siblings living with mental health and substance misuse challenges.

What if your money blocks weren't just mindset—but deeply stored in your body? In this powerful episode, I'm joined by Nichole Jones, therapist, money mindset mentor, and brainspotting expert, who shares how healing your nervous system is the missing link between you and true financial peace. Nichole opens up about her journey as a “recovering manifester,” how she tried to get the Law of Attraction just right (hello, vision boards + hour-long meditations), and why it never stuck—until she began working with trauma, worthiness, and her nervous system. We dive deep into why so many of us feel stuck with money, how to stop shaming yourself for your financial emotions, and how to start rewiring your nervous system to feel safe with abundance. This is one of those must-listen episodes if you've ever felt like manifestation isn't working or money always feels like a struggle. What You'll Learn in This Episode: ✅ Why your nervous system is KEY to unlocking wealth and worthiness ✅ What it means to be a “recovering manifester” (and why LOA might not be enough) ✅ The role trauma plays in shaping your money anxiety ✅ How brainspotting helps rewire beliefs and release stored emotional blocks ✅ What to do when you feel like you “shouldn't” be anxious—but still are ✅ A calming breathwork practice to regulate anxiety in real time ✅ Why surrendering to the divine (instead of forcing the “how”) is a game changer Resources & Links:

What up, Beasts! Get ready for a mind-blowing conversation with Atara Parkinson, a marriage and family therapist turned health coach who's on a mission to bridge the gap between mental and physical health. She shares her personal story of burnout, binge drinking, and the wake-up call that led her to discover the power of minerals. We talk about the wild ways stress, diet culture, and postpartum struggles can throw our bodies completely out of whack, and how getting your minerals in check might just be the missing piece to feeling like yourself again. Plus, we go deep into why your body is basically begging you for nutrients, not punishment, and why bacon might just be the secret superfood we all need (yes, you read that right).We also dive into the sneaky signs of mineral imbalances like sugar cravings, brain fog, and that fun little habit of mentally spiraling about your morning alarm screw-up. Atara breaks down the crucial four minerals (magnesium, sodium, calcium, and potassium), how they impact everything from stress levels to decision-making, and simple ways to start rebalancing your body without feeling like you need a PhD in nutrition. If you've ever felt like your cravings, moods, or exhaustion are running the show, this episode is your permission slip to stop fighting your body and start fueling it the way it actually needs.

In this episode, I'm joined by Linda Thai — a mental health clinician, storyteller, and educator who has had her own lived experiences of individual, collective, historical and cultural traumatization...and healing. I've interviewed many fascinating individuals in the past seven years of running The Weekend University, but there was something different about Linda. It might have something to do with her getting off the grid and living in the wilderness in Alaska, or perhaps it's the eclectic self-education she has immersed herself in. Whatever it is, Linda brings to the table a unique and holistic perspective on attachment, that I think is years ahead of the conventional wisdom. Expect to learn: — The difference between psychology, trauma-informed psychology, culturally-informed psychology, and liberation informed psychology — Where traditional attachment theory falls short — Why we need to redefine the parameters of attachment and take an ecosystem view And more. You can learn more about Linda's work and trainings at https://www.linda-thai.com/. --- Linda Thai, LMSW ERYT-200 is a trauma therapist and educator who specializes in brain and body-based modalities for addressing complex developmental trauma. Linda has worked with thousands of people from all over the world to promote mindfulness, recover from trauma, and tend to grief as a means of self care. Linda's work centers on healing with a special focus on the experiences of adult children of refugees and immigrants. Her teaching is infused with empathy, storytelling, humor, research, practical tools, applied knowledge, and experiential wisdom. She has assisted internationally renowned psychiatrist and trauma expert, Dr. Bessel van der Kolk, with his private small group psychotherapy workshops aimed at healing attachment trauma. She has a Master of Social Work with an emphasis on the neurobiology of attachment and trauma. Linda has studied Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, Somatic Experiencing, Brainspotting, Internal Family Systems, Trauma-Informed Stabilization Treatment, Havening Touch, Flash Technique, and structural dissociation of the personality, and offers the Safe and Sound Protocol, yoga, and meditation within her practice. Linda works on the traditional lands of the Tanana Athabascan people (Fairbanks, Alaska) with those recovering from addiction, trauma, and mental illness. She is passionate about breaking the cycle of historical and intergenerational trauma at the individual and community levels. --- Interview Links: Linda's website - https://www.linda-thai.com/

Welcome to the Sustainable Clinical Medicine Podcast! In Episode 107, Dr. Sarah Smith welcomes Dr. Simon Mittal and Ms. Maren Mittal to discuss the intricate dynamics of the health care system and how clinicians can survive and thrive within it. Dr. Simon Mittal, a physician with 30 years of experience and a background in both clinical and administrative roles, shares his journey of transitioning from working within a large health system to founding a consulting company aimed at making health care sustainable for both providers and patients. Ms. Maren Mittal, a licensed clinical social worker with expertise in mental health therapy, offers insights from her experience supporting medical professionals and families impacted by the demands of the medical field.

Join us for a compelling conversation about redesigning clinical days, fostering relationships, and building sustainable health care models. Here are 3 key takeaways from this episode: Embrace Vulnerability and Curiosity in Change Management: It's essential for healthcare providers to feel empowered to voice potential improvements and to approach organizational changes with a mindset of curiosity, engaging with stakeholders to collaboratively bring ideas to life. Prioritize Emotional Intelligence and Relationship Building: Successful leadership and team collaboration in healthcare heavily rely on cultivating trust and fostering emotional safety within teams. This ensures that everyone feels seen, heard, and valued, which is a cornerstone for high-functioning healthcare systems. Recognize the Importance of Individual Resilience: Providers must acknowledge personal boundaries and self-care to maintain their passion and effectiveness in their roles. Resiliency isn't just about enduring challenges but thriving amidst them by aligning work with personal values and finding joy in the practice.

Through healthcare leadership and organizational alignment coaching, Simon's mission is to catalyze this transformation, creating healthcare environments where professionals feel valued, supported, and empowered to drive innovation and deliver exceptional care within organizations. Maren Mittal is a dedicated and compassionate licensed clinical social worker, LICSW, and healthcare professional with over 10 years of experience and holds a Master's degree in Social Work from the University of Houston and is licensed in Minnesota and Wisconsin.

Dr. Huang shares her extensive background in social work, psychology, and mountaineering before delving into her journey with brainspotting.

— “No matter how confused, self- doubting or ambivalent we are about what's happening in our interactions with other people, we can never entirely silence the inner voice that always tells us the truth. We may not like the sound of the truth, and we often let it murmur just outside our consciousness, not stopping long enough to listen. But when we pay attention to it, it leads us towards wisdom, health and clarity. That voice is the guardian of our integrity.”  ~Susan Forward, Ph.D. Valeria interviews Rhonda Van De Geest  — She is a Certified & Accredited Narcissistic Abuse Specialist , Somatic Trauma Informed Coach, PreKure Mental Health Coach and trained practitioner of Living Wisdom Pastoral Therapy and Brainspotting.

We are recording Season 3 of the Resilient Birth podcast. Meanwhile we have selected our favorite episodes for you. In this episode, Justine and Sarah are joined by Mara Tesler-Stein, a clinical psychologist and founder of the Touchstone Institute for Psychotherapy and Training. We talk about EMDR for the perinatal population, the impact on Mara's own perinatal journey as the parent of preemie twins on her professional career, and the experience of having a baby in the NICU. Summary Mara begins by sharing the Talmudic quote: “Someone who saves a single life is considered as if they have saved an entire world.” The conversation then delves into the topic of EMDR therapy and its benefits for the perinatal population. Mara explains that EMDR is a trauma-focused therapy that helps individuals process and integrate traumatic experiences. Mara shares her story including her perinatal journey of preterm labor, extended hospital stay and preemie twins. We explore what it is like for parents who have had to navigate life with a baby in the NICU and the emotional aftermath of that. The conversation explores the three core tasks that parents face in and after a perinatal crisis: developing parental identity for the baby, managing emotions, and managing relationships. Mara share that he loss of innocence and loss of peer group are significant challenges that parents face in the aftermath of a perinatal crisis, but also reassures that with window for attachment stretches well beyond the hour or hours after birth. Keywords EMDR therapy, perinatal mental health, birth trauma, NICU, early development, attachment, perinatal crisis, parental identity, healthcare providers, Takeaways EMDR therapy is a trauma-focused therapy that helps individuals process and integrate traumatic experiences. Trauma in the perinatal period, including the trauma of a NICU experience, can have long-term impacts on individuals and their families. Parents face three core tasks in and after a perinatal crisis: developing parental identity, managing emotions, and managing relationships. Perinatal crises are transformative and can lead to a shift in identity and perspective for parents. The loss of innocence and loss of peer group are significant challenges that parents face in the aftermath of a perinatal crisis. Healthcare providers can understand their role as both the hosts of and guests within families in their care, making space for parents to fulfill their role as parents. Sound Bites "Someone who saves a single life is considered as if they have saved an entire world." "The healing is already there. My job as the therapist is to help that internal healing mobilize."

— Honoring Ancestral Grief work is very subtle and profound, that takes place on a molecular level. It takes patience, devotion, compassion and an open heart to generate and embody these changes, until one day the process unfolds organically and naturally without utilizing immense reservoirs of effort. Some of the positive changes occur on the neuroplasticity level, which is the brain's ability to change through growth and reorganization. Some manifest as a deeper attuned nervous system and wider access to the information and sacred wisdom our bodies carries, a whole inner architecture that we get to know, our ancestry library.  A big part of the work of processing the un-metabolized grief of our ancestors, is to grief for them, and by doing so, for us as well. Grief call us to life. There's an importance in embracing grief to help us find deeper meaning in the joy and vitality of life.  Healing this grief may come through reconnecting with our forgotten lineage, allowing us to restore a foundation that may be missing, from which we can move more deeply into relationship with the wider world. The prayer is for the individual sovereign work we do, to ripple into our families, communities, eco-systems, lineages and the earth. What we liberate in ourselves, echos back infinitely and eternally, as a different quality of energy gets passed on to the next generations. A holistic, ancient, awaked, wise energy. One that witnesses the stories from a birds eye perspective, one that is generating the oceans of compassion and light hearted freedom.  One that is expanding our map of consciousness, that is stretching the elasticity of our collective memory and presence. It is essential we support the accessing of our own inner wisdom, so that we may connect with the ancestor that we wish to become. Valeria interviews MayRav Nissim — She is an open hearted, warm and experienced therapist and space holder.  Her work is informed by a wide range of healing modalities to help you restore, balance, and bloom. The northern star of her work is the important role the mind-body connection plays in healing and growth. Her practice is the interweaving of Psychotherapy, BioIntelligence, Neurobiology and Indigenous wisdom. Her certifications and continued areas of study include Internal Family Systems Level 3, Somatic Attachment Therapy, Somatic Experiencing, Brainspotting, Sound Healing and an ever-present apprenticeship in Shamanic practices. MayRav views her work with clients as a shared, supportive and compassionate reminder of ways to reconnect with their most authentic self, while they integrate deep sustainable change. It is her intention to guide them to create a more rooted foundation in their body, mind, heart and soul, from which they may step into greater vitality, presence and wholeness.  MayRav honors the knowing that our individual healing work eternally ripples within our homes, families, lineages and systems. She is passionate about breaking the cycles of historical and intergenerational trauma at the individual and community levels, and deeply believes in the healing power of coming together in community to witness and be witnessed, express, grief, renegotiate and reorganize.
