Send us a textFeeling stuck in a rut? That plateau where nothing seems to be changing can be frustrating, but the solution isn't waiting for external circumstances to shift—it's about transforming your own energy first.This episode reveals five powerful yet simple ways to break free from stagnation and reignite your spark. These aren't expensive lifestyle overhauls or complex systems, but practical approaches you can implement immediately, wherever you are. We explore how novelty stimulates your brain to create new neural networks, breaking patterns of sameness that contribute to feeling flat. Whether it's exploring a new environment, embracing curiosity, trying something different, playing without goals, or performing acts of service—each approach creates biological shifts that elevate your mood and magnetize new opportunities.The science behind these methods is fascinating. When we experience novelty or witness kindness, our brains literally change—creating what researchers have documented as a "biological natural high." This isn't just positive thinking; it's neurologically-backed transformation that anyone can access. The ripple effects extend beyond our personal experience, potentially inspiring others and creating legacy impacts we may never directly witness.What makes these approaches particularly valuable is their accessibility. You don't need to break the bank or dramatically overhaul your life to experience significant shifts. Small, intentional changes—taking a different route home, cooking an unfamiliar recipe, or leaving an anonymous kind note—can create profound energy shifts that transform how you experience life. Try one approach today and notice how quickly your perspective and possibilities begin to expand.Support the show

SHOW NOTES: On this show… we're exploring the sneaky ways we lose control—without even realizing we've handed it over. Have you ever found yourself doing something—again—and thinking, “Why do I keep doing this?” Maybe it's late-night scrolling, that one more drink, the need to say “yes” when you're screaming “no” inside. These patterns creep in, settle down, and before you know it, they've built a little nest in your life. We call them habits, but sometimes, they're more than that. Sometimes they're hangups, hurts, or full-blown addictions masquerading as routines. And here's the kicker—they don't just take up space; they slowly take the wheel. What if you're not as in control as you thought? What if what you think is manageable is actually managing you? Today, we're going deeper—not to shame or scold, but to shine a gentle light. Because denial is tricky. It whispers that you're fine, that it's not affecting anyone else. But the truth is, what controls you, changes you. It touches your relationships, your work, your peace. And the hardest part? Admitting it. Facing yourself in the mirror and saying, “This isn't working anymore.” But here's the good news: awareness is the first, most powerful step toward freedom. So today, we're cracking open the doors of truth with compassion, curiosity, and a roadmap to reclaiming your power. Before we can take control back, we have to understand what we're really dealing with. So let's break it down. Habit vs. Addiction A habit is something we do regularly, often without thinking—like brushing your teeth or making coffee first thing in the morning. Habits can be helpful, neutral, or harmful. They're built through repetition and reinforced by small rewards (hello, dopamine!). On the other hand, addiction takes things further. It's compulsive. It's often used to escape, numb, or gain relief. And it continues despite negative consequences. The line between habit and addiction can blur, especially when the habit becomes something we rely on emotionally or physically. Denial and Self-Deception Denial is a powerful defense mechanism. It protects us—from shame, fear, discomfort—but it also keeps us stuck. When we're in denial, we minimize, rationalize, or outright ignore what's happening. We say things like “It's not that bad,” “I can stop anytime,” or “It's not hurting anyone.” But these lies we tell ourselves can build a wall so thick that even when we're suffering, we can't admit we need help. The longer we stay there, the harder it is to see a way out. The Grief of Letting Go Yes, grief. Because even when we're giving up something toxic, we're still letting go of something familiar. This is where the Five Stages of Grief come into play: Denial – “This isn't a problem. I've got this under control.” Anger – “Why do I even have to deal with this? It's not fair.” Bargaining – “If I only do it on weekends, that's fine, right?” Depression – “I feel helpless. I'm tired of trying and failing.” Acceptance – “This is real, and I'm ready to do something about it.” We grieve because we're changing. We're letting go of the version of ourselves we thought we needed—and that's not easy. But it is powerful. The Invisible Impact Here's the truth: you don't live in a vacuum. Whatever is controlling you—whether it's overworking, people-pleasing, numbing, or isolating—it doesn't just affect you. It impacts your energy, your presence, your relationships, and your potential. The scary part? You might not even know the full extent until you start making a change.

Then, take one small step toward releasing its grip, reminding yourself that you are not powerless, you are in progress.   I Know YOU Can Do It!

Spiritual growth begins not by seeking higher states, but by fully recognizing how we built the ego out of thoughts from our past and are now identified with it. Our resultant preferences and suppressed past experiences make us suffer and constrict our awareness to ourselves. True liberation comes not by spiritualizing the ego, but by relaxing behind it and allowing reality to pass through while remaining centered in our true nature as consciousness.

The truth about your genetic makeup is far more extraordinary than conventional science suggests.In this illuminating conversation, William Linville takes us on a journey through the multidimensional nature of human DNA, revealing how we're composed of far more than just the genetic material passed down from our parents.

Are you a working mom who feels like you're constantly choosing between career success and being present for your children—all while battling guilt, resentment, and chronic exhaustion that a good night's sleep can't fix? Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Coach for Moms Christi Gmyr joins Rebecca to tackle the reality of working mom burnout. Having experienced firsthand the challenges of balancing a demanding career with motherhood—especially when her second child was born during the COVID shutdown—Christi shares practical strategies for overcoming burnout, managing guilt, and reconnecting with family without resentment. This conversation dives deep into the difference between stress and burnout, why boundaries matter, and how to reframe the false choice between being a successful career woman and a present mother. 5 Key Takeaways ➤ Burnout vs. Stress: Stress is situational and temporary, but burnout is chronic exhaustion that doesn't go away with rest—it requires addressing environmental and systemic issues, not just self-care. ➤ Guilt Stems from Mindset: Working mom guilt typically comes from thoughts like "I'm doing something wrong" or "I'm letting someone down"—challenging these deep-rooted societal expectations is key to moving forward. ➤ Career and Motherhood Complement Each Other: You don't have to choose between being a successful career woman and a present mom—when you feel fulfilled at work, it rolls over into your ability to be more present as a parent. ➤ Boundaries Prevent Resentment: Resentment builds gradually from unresolved frustrations, and without clear boundaries, partners can't respect limits they don't know exist—leading to disconnection and relationship strain. ➤ Let Go of Perfection: Success doesn't mean being 100% in all roles at any given time—it's about adjusting, adapting, and remembering that as long as you're intentional, you're doing a great job. Quotes from Christi "We need to let go of this idea of perfection. You know, because perfection does not exist. There are lots and lots of ways to be a great mom." "We're all just doing the best we can."

Ever feel trapped in a cycle of perpetual busyness?  Wonder why, despite your best efforts, you never seem to have enough time to create better time management systems? The answer lies in what behavioral scientists call "the scarcity tunnel", a fascinating cognitive phenomenon that explains why the busier we get, the worse we become at managing our time.  When we're short on time, our brains enter a survival mode where only immediate tasks matter. Like a jar filling with pebbles, each small task occupies precious mental space, leaving no room for strategic thinking or system-building. This creates a cruel paradox: precisely when we most need innovative solutions to our time problems, we're least equipped to develop them.  This episode dives deep into the science of scarcity and its impact on decision-making.  You'll discover why even intelligent, capable people make shortsighted choices under pressure, and how this affects everything from financial decisions to daily time management. More importantly, you'll learn the counterintuitive step required to break free from this cycle, deliberately setting aside time for strategic thinking when you feel you have none to spare.  Your calendar doesn't lie; it reflects where your life is heading. By understanding the psychology behind time scarcity and implementing the practical strategies shared in this episode, you can escape the tunneling effect and build systems that create more meaning, impact, and fulfillment.  Don't just survive each day - design a life you'll be proud to look back on.    Text Me Your Thoughts and IdeasSupport the showBrought to you by Angela Shurina Behavior-First Change Leadership & Culture Transformation ConsultantEXECUTIVE & OPTIMAL PERFORMANCE COACH

Understanding Why People Stay in Abusive RelationshipsBill Eddy and Megan Hunter return for their seventh season of It's All Your Fault to tackle a challenging but critical topic: why people stay in abusive relationships. Drawing from their extensive experience at the High Conflict Institute, they explore the complex psychological, financial, and social factors that make leaving difficult—even for those with resources and support networks.The Power of Coercive ControlThe episode delves into how coercive control operates in relationships, using the high-profile example of FKA Twigs and Shia LaBeouf. Bill and Megan examine how abusers use tactics like love bombing, isolation, and emotional manipulation to maintain power. They emphasize that this pattern appears not just in romantic relationships, but in workplaces, families, and elder care situations.Understanding Personality PatternsThe discussion explores how people with cluster B personality traits may engage in controlling behaviors. Bill and Megan carefully explain the connection between personality patterns and abusive behavior, while emphasizing that not everyone with these traits becomes abusive. They examine how cultural factors and early life experiences can influence the development of controlling behaviors.Breaking Free and Finding HelpThe hosts share practical advice for recognizing abuse and seeking help, highlighting the importance of self-talk and building support networks. They discuss how professionals and concerned individuals can better support those in abusive situations, emphasizing the need for careful investigation rather than quick dismissal of abuse claims.Questions we answer in this episode:Why do capable, independent people stay in abusive relationships?How does coercive control work in different types of relationships?What role do personality patterns play in abusive behavior?How can professionals better identify and help abuse victims?What are the first steps to breaking free from an abusive relationship?Key Takeaways:Abusive relationships often involve complex psychological manipulationFinancial and social factors can make leaving extremely difficultSelf-doubt and eroded self-esteem are common barriers to leavingSupport systems are crucial for helping people leave abusive situationsProfessional help and community awareness can make a significant differenceThis episode provides valuable insights for anyone trying to understand abusive relationships—whether personally affected or supporting others.

Send us a textWhat happens when a personal health transformation becomes the unexpected preparation for a life-altering caregiving journey? Christine Trimpe's story powerfully demonstrates how God works ahead of our awareness to equip us for challenges we can't yet imagine.Christine candidly shares the moment that changed everything - standing breathless on a Rocky Mountain trail, unable to complete a half-mile hike due to being over 100 pounds overweight. That humbling experience led to a simple prayer: "God, I just want to feel better." Little did she know how perfectly timed her subsequent health transformation would be. After ditching sugar completely and losing over 100 pounds, Christine found herself spiritually, emotionally, and physically strengthened just months before her son suffered a traumatic brain injury in a catastrophic car accident.Now as her son's caregiver, Christine navigates the unique challenges of supporting someone with an invisible disability. Though outwardly appearing unaffected, her son's TBI impacts his mental health and requires ongoing advocacy, oversight, and support. Christine reveals the surprising isolation of caregiving and how her morning ritual of time in God's Word sustains her through difficult seasons. Her focus on cultivating joy and more recently, peace replacing hypervigilance, demonstrates the evolving nature of spiritual growth throughout the caregiving journey.For caregivers at any stage, Christine offers wisdom gleaned from experience: true self-care means nurturing your spiritual and emotional health first. Her personal philosophy—"when we feel better, we serve better"—encapsulates the importance of maintaining our own well-being to effectively care for others. Whether you're facing health challenges, unexpected caregiving responsibilities, or both, Christine's story reminds us that God often prepares the path before us, equipping us for seasons we never anticipated.

Have you ever been told you're “too much,” “too sensitive,” or simply “not normal”? Those labels can feel like a life sentence - but they're nothing more than stories you've been handed. Today, I dismantle the idea that you must hunt down and “fix” what's wrong with you; instead, I re-frame intense emotions and unique wiring as invitations to understand yourself on a deeper level.I also unpack how pathologizing everyday human experiences keeps women tangled in self-doubt. By shifting from judgment to curiosity, you'll see how not fitting the mold can become a powerful source of insight and self-acceptance.Shame and misdiagnosis work together to keep women doubting their worth instead of embracing genuine healing. In this episode, you can expect practical, nervous-system-friendly tools, mindset shifts that cut through guilt, and questions that help you reclaim your own story so you can step off the endless self-improvement hamster wheel and finally breathe.Get full show notes, transcript and more information here: amandahess.ca/265 Interested in working with me?

In this explosive episode of Breaking Free, I sit down with Craig Cole—founder of Leave Our Kids Alone—to pull the curtain back on a chilling agenda being pushed right into classrooms across the country. We're talking about the deliberate sexualised indoctrination of your children and grandchildren—a calculated attack not just on their innocence, but on the very moral fabric of our society. This isn't theory. It's documented. It's fact-checked. And it's happening right now.Craig exposes how government institutions and politicians are not only allowing this—but are actively enabling and encouraging it under the deceitful banner of “Diversity & Inclusion.” He names names, calls out the Victorian Department of Education, and reveals how many principals and teachers are fully aware of what they're implementing—and do so without shame.This isn't about hate. It's about truth, accountability, and protecting the next generation.Your concerns as a parent or grandparent are being silenced, ridiculed, and gaslit by a system that no longer serves your values—or your children's wellbeing.

The discussion emphasizes the need for authenticity in content creation and the significance of building confidence through understanding one's unique gifts and strengths. Ultimately, the conversation highlights the journey towards self-acceptance and the importance of curating a positive online experience.     takeaways Social media amplifies the tendency to compare ourselves to others. It's essential to recognize that social media is often a curated highlight reel. Many high achievers struggle with comparison, especially in competitive fields. Inner work is crucial for understanding one's strengths and gifts. People who compare less often have a strong sense of self-awareness. Trolls and negative feedback often stem from the insecurities of others. Engaging with social media can be healthier when it involves interaction rather than passive consumption. Finding authenticity in content creation can lead to greater satisfaction and fulfillment. Positive affirmations should be believable and resonate with one's true self. Building confidence requires ongoing self-discovery and acceptance of one's unique qualities.   titles The Comparison Trap: Navigating Social Media Inner Work: The Key to Self-Discovery   Sound Bites "We can get caught in this comparison trap."

Sunday | Breaking Free From Your Strongholds

We recorded this episode in Spain over half a bottle of Vermut—and let's just say things got honest. After two months of scouting Europe with a toddler, we're breaking down our three Spanish contenders (Valencia, Alicante, and Málaga) and asking: could we actually live here?But this isn't your typical city guide. We're comparing cities like exes, calling out red flags, daydreaming about our next chapter, and being brutally real about what makes a place livable—not just pretty.In this episode:What Valencia, Alicante, and Málaga were really like as move-abroad contendersThe city that gave us second-date energy vs. the one that felt like a vacation flingWhat actually matters when choosing a place to live long-term (beyond the food and beach vibes)How our family, lifestyle, and emotional needs shaped the way we saw each cityIf you've ever tried to turn a vacation spot into a forever home—or debated if a city is husband material—this one's for you.

Words matter—and numbers can be deeply triggering, especially when it comes to how we see our bodies. Jess Connolly joins Sadie for a vulnerable, honest, and empowering conversation about body image, shame, regret, and the lies we believe about ourselves. Together, they explore how we can break these toxic patterns and walk in freedom. Jess opens up about how her body insecurities began early in life and actually intensified after she became a believer. Sadie shares her own story of disordered eating and how seemingly small, careless words fueled a painful downward spiral. Sadie and Jess talk about the confusion when they both became smaller after disordered eating — but were then praised for it. Jess then shares what she's learned about the theology of the body which you can read more about in her book, "Breaking Free from Body Shame," or start the accompanying Bible study here: ⁠https://breakingfreefrombodyshame.com/⁠ This episode of WHOA That's Good is sponsored by: ⁠https://gominno.com⁠ — Get your first month FREE when you use code WHOA at sign up.
