In this episode, we sit down with dating and heartbreak recovery coach Cole Zesiger for a deeply honest conversation about what really happens after a breakup—and why healing is so much harder than people want to admit. We talk about why heartbreak can feel all-consuming, how our brains are wired for attachment, and why “just move on” is some of the least helpful advice out there.Together, we explore what it actually takes to recover after loss, rebuild a meaningful life, and create healthier relationship patterns moving forward. Whether you're newly single, stuck in an on-again/off-again cycle, or simply wanting to understand yourself better in relationships, this conversation is packed with insight, compassion, and practical guidance that meets you where you are—without shortcuts or shame. Episode Highlights:[0:00] – Welcome to Insights from the Couch and why heartbreak deserves real conversation [2:10] – Meeting Cole Zesiger and how his own divorce shaped his work [6:45] – Why rebounds “work”… until they don't [9:30] – The evolutionary psychology of heartbreak and why it feels unbearable [14:50] – No contact explained: why space is necessary for healing [18:25] – Social media, blocking vs. muting, and why tiny “hits” keep you stuck [23:45] – Why people stay frozen in grief for years [26:55] – Colette shares her own hard-earned lesson about no contact [31:10] – How people actually get back together in a healthy way [36:00] – Rebuilding your life after heartbreak: the six key areas that matter [41:50] – Attachment styles and why we repeat the same relationship patterns [48:00] – Forgiveness, letting go, and reclaiming your energy [55:10] – Why healthy relationships are worth the risk, according to long-term research Links & Resources·         Cole Zesiger on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/coachcolezesiger ·         X's and Knows: The Breakup Advice You Don't Want to Hear: https://www.amazon.com/Exs-Nos-Breakup-Advice-Dont/dp/1394324138·         Cole's Website: https://coachcolezesiger.com If today's discussion resonated with you or sparked curiosity, please rate, follow, and share "Insights from the Couch" with others.

We started this episode with the working title, 'When You Watch Childhood Trauma Happening in Real Time', but as the conversation unfolded, so much of what we were talking about was a mixed bag of parenting choices that often fall within the cultural norm, even if, as therapists, we understand might have long-term consequences. We talked about screen time and spanking, being strict with teens, and having age-inappropriate expectations of young children. What is a therapist to do in this situation? Especially if the client isn't there to discuss their parenting? As you listen, keep in mind our own standpoints: Jordan is in the thick of it with school-aged kids, and Alison is childfree by choice. Let us know what you think!We're taking the couch on the road!

Have you ever felt overwhelmed by the pressure to grow quickly, show up on every social platform, or chase bigger numbers just for the sake of it? If so, this episode is for you.  In this episode of the Private Practice Elevation Podcast, Daniel Fava welcomes back psychologist and entrepreneur Melvin Varghese for a heartfelt and insightful conversation about building a private practice (or any type of business) at a pace that aligns with your life and values. Melvin shares how he's intentionally slowed down his business growth to protect his well-being and stay grounded in what really matters: service, sustainability, and family. You'll hear how Selling the Couch grew into a successful course and podcast platform, and why Melvin chose not to scale rapidly, even when there was financial momentum.  Instead, he prioritized nervous system regulation, systems, and structure that would allow him to thrive for the long haul, not just sprint for short-term gains. Daniel and Melvin also talk candidly about how personal life seasons,  like parenting, caregiving, and health challenges, impact business decisions.  Their honest discussion is a reminder that success doesn't have to mean constant hustle. Sometimes, it looks like doing less, more intentionally. Whether you're building a solo practice or branching into online income, you'll come away from this episode with encouragement to define success on your own terms — and the permission to grow at your own pace. This Episode Answers: 1. What does it really mean to build a lifestyle business as a therapist?  Melvin breaks down how he's designed his business to support health, family, and legacy over constant hustle. He shares insights from growing Selling the Couch to $12k/month in course income and why he chose to pause and re-evaluate instead of scaling aggressively. 2. How can therapists know which marketing channels to focus on?  Rather than trying to be everywhere, Melvin recommends aligning your marketing with your long-term goals. For example, if you want to speak, podcasting or YouTube can build your skills and audience. He shares how he sticks to three core channels to maintain quality and avoid burnout. 3. What's the role of nervous system regulation in business growth?  Both Daniel and Melvin reflect on the emotional toll of entrepreneurship. They discuss how rituals like prayer, reflection, golf, and quiet time in nature are essential to managing stress and sustaining a business long-term. Other Key Takeaways: Entrepreneurship is not a race. Slow growth can be strategic and soul-sustaining. Having a team and systems in place doesn't eliminate stress, but it does help with sustainability. There's a natural cap to lifestyle businesses ($250k–$300k/year), and scaling beyond that requires a mindset shift. Your personal life and business are interconnected. Seasons of life should inform business strategy. You don't need to be on every social media platform. Choose what aligns with your energy and vision.

We disappeared for almost a month and somehow came back louder, dumber, and more confident than ever, which frankly shouldn't be possible, but here we are. The show is back and firing on all cylinders, and if you disagree that's fine, but you're wrong. We're joined by @trackstandmemes, who dug up our 2023 feud with Girls Whose Dads Should Have Pulled Out like an unsolved cold case, managed to somehow drag our friends at @lowcountrymtbassociation into the mix, and then made an AI song about it years later. Totally normal behavior. We take a misty-eyed stroll down memory lane while playing songs dunking on clipless pedal riders and Bentonville, because some traditions matter and some wars never end. Hour one feels like classic Gnar Couch in the sense that it probably shouldn't exist, but somehow does. Rob manages to completely obliterate YouTube's "Don't Swear Within the First Five Minutes of Your Show Rule." And we close the show explaining that it's perfectly easy and normal to get shot in 2026, if that's something you're looking to do. It's a triumphant return. It's unhinged. It's peak Gnar Couch. Nature is healing. The Couch is back.

Send us a text I'm back. Not sure for how long or how often, but I just can't let Views on the News from the Couch die. Lay dormant, sure. Not die.  This podcast started a few years ago for me to share views and opinions based on a lifetime of experiences. As you get older, you realize our politics can be a bit like NASCAR: drive fast and turn left. By “turn left” I don't mean liberal; I mean we keep circling. We repeat. Not as much is new as we think… although the last few years might blow a hole in that theory.  What got my juices going to resurrect the podcast was Greenland. And ICE. But today, I want to talk about Trump actively working to acquire Greenland.  This all started with a text I sent some friends sharing a bit of information on Greenland and posing a question. Yeah, I'm that nerdy.  Here's the cleaned‑up version of the text:  “What the Hell is Trump doing with Greenland? That is not the question, just part of the intro. I think we all hate that Trump has made Greenland an issue. We feel Trump should be nice to Denmark, NATO is important, and Trump, don't be a dick. This is an issue he should not have picked.  Second intro thought: Trump is not a can kicker. Many of our politicians kick cans down the road, like the Medicare and Social Security crisis, and for understandable reasons. Politicians are crucified for trying to solve issues before they are a disaster.  Third intro thought: What if some smart people in the government, with access to secret intelligence, have identified that in the next 20 to 40 years Greenland will likely separate from Denmark, and the fear is they might choose to align with Russia or China or both?  Now the question: could Trump be smarter than all the analysts when it comes to Greenland? Could failure to act now be a disaster in 40 years?”  That was the text to four guys.  In a few days we have a breakfast session to discuss it.  And the football championship gameBut you can get my thoughts early in this podcast.

In this episode of our Nonprofit Spotlight series, Grayson Harris sits down with Rebecca Tallman, Executive Director of Veterans Community Project St. Louis, to discuss how the organization is tackling veteran homelessness by filling the gaps left by traditional systems.Founded by combat veterans, Veterans Community Project provides transitional housing through tiny home villages and delivers wraparound services without restricting who qualifies for help. Rebecca shares how the model works, why saying no to certain funding is sometimes necessary, and how long term, generational impact starts with stable housing.This is a grounded conversation about dignity, collaboration, and doing the work the right way.What We CoverHow Veterans Community Project was founded by veterans who saw system failures firsthandWhy many veterans do not qualify for traditional VA services and how VCP fills that gapThe tiny home village model and why transitional housing worksWhat makes the St. Louis project unique, including its outreach centerHow veterans move from crisis to permanent housingWhy VCP limits certain government funding to protect its missionThe importance of collaboration across nonprofits and agenciesMeasuring success through long term and generational outcomesHow individuals, funders, and communities can get involvedKey TakeawaysVeteran homelessness is not limited to those living on the street. Couch surfing and unstable housing count too.Eligibility rules exclude many veterans from existing services. VCP serves all veterans, regardless of discharge status or length of service.Fully furnished tiny homes remove one of the biggest barriers to permanent housing.Case management is personalized. There is no one size fits all approach.Funding should support the mission, not dictate it.Stable housing creates ripple effects that impact families for generations. ---------------------------About Charity ChargeCharity Charge is a financial technology company serving the nonprofit sector.

Inspired by conversations with clients about GLP-1s, today we're talking something particularly tender and nuanced: the cultural shift towards thinness and the myriad ways that is showing up in our work. We talk about our duty to our clients, and balancing that with respecting self-determination and stage of change. We discuss how exactly to bring up disordered eating, and whether and when self-disclosure can be helpful. We also talk about countertransference and how that can add layers to the already complex theme. We're taking the couch on the road!

In this episode, we conclude our real-life battle with Sam's Club after buying a couch that arrived incomplete and went unresolved for months. We share how filing a complaint through PROFECO and ConciliaNet led not only to a full refund, but also to the legally required 20% compensation—despite resistance and delays from the company. If you live in, travel to, or shop in Mexico, this episode shows you that you do have rights as a consumer and that PROFECO is a powerful tool when a business refuses to respond.Key Takeaways:PROFECO can successfully force companies in Mexico to respect consumer rights.You don't need to be a Mexican citizen or resident to file a PROFECO complaint.Persistence, documentation, and knowing the law can make a real difference in high-value purchases.Relevant Links And Additional Resources:289 – La Saga del Sillón y la PROFECO Parte I | The Saga of the Couch and PROFECO, Part ILevel up your Spanish with our Podcast MembershipGet the full transcript of each episode so you don't miss a wordListen to an extended breakdown section in English going over the most important words and phrasesTest your comprehension with a multiple choice quizSupport the show

We're back again with another episode a week has passed and somehow a lot happened. Dex has officially entered her white couch era (growth!), Carla shares a voice note from a friend that sparks conversation, and Dex is now claiming her title as a sports girly… to the point where she believes if she doesn't watch the game, her team will lose. Logic? Questionable. Commitment? Real. With tax season right around the corner, Carla gives her annual reminder to stay alert and read your paperwork — because the scams are scamming. We also get into Venus Williams' five-day wedding, the Cam Newton interview with T.D. Jakes on the NXT Chapter podcast, and how T.D.'s words hit Carla with a much deeper message about purpose, presence, and cherishing the life you're living right now. Plus, we debate a wild legal story out of Italy involving a restaurant promo video that allegedly exposed a man's affair. Does he have a case? And would he actually win? A little light, a little deep — just how we like it.   WHAT WE GET INTO Dex's white couch era and what it says about growth A voice note that sparks reflection and conversation Becoming a "sports girly" and superstition logic Tax season is coming — don't get scammed, read your paperwork Venus Williams' five-day wedding Cam Newton x T.D.

In this episode of Insights from the Couch, we sit down with licensed therapist, writer, and divorce support group leader Oona Metz to have one of the most honest, grounding, and hope-filled conversations we've ever had about divorce—especially at midlife. We talk about why divorce still carries so much stigma, why so many women feel isolated and ashamed, and what actually helps people heal instead of staying stuck.Together, we explore the emotional reality of divorce, why it can feel like a total identity loss, and how healing doesn't come from rushing forward—but from understanding the process. Oona shares the framework behind her new book, Unhitched: The Essential Divorce Guide for Women, and helps normalize the heartbreak, chaos, growth, and transformation that so many women experience but rarely talk about out loud. Episode Highlights:[0:00] – Welcome to Insights from the Couch and why this conversation matters so much at midlife [2:30] – Introducing Oona Metz and the inspiration behind Unhitched [5:15] – Why divorce still feels shameful—even though it's so common [8:00] – Redefining “success” in marriage and letting go of outdated narratives [12:30] – The emotional tsunami of divorce and why uncertainty is so hard on the nervous system [15:30] – The five emotional phases of divorce: heartbreak, roller coaster, mending, letting go, and moving on [20:40] – Why people get stuck after divorce—and what actually helps them heal [24:30] – Letting go without pretending it was “okay” [28:00] – Forgiveness, reframed: releasing yourself, not excusing harm [33:00] – Why distraction and dating too soon can backfire [37:45] – The power of divorce support groups and not doing this alone [41:00] – What Oona hopes every woman knows about healing after divorce [43:00] – How to find Oona, her book, and free divorce resources Links and Resources:Oona Metz's website and free divorce resources: https://www.oonametz.comBook: Unhitched: The Essential Divorce Guide for Women by Oona Metz: https://www.amazon.com/Unhitched-Essential-Divorce-Guide-Women/dp/1668075385 If today's discussion resonated with you or sparked curiosity, please rate, follow, and share "Insights from the Couch" with others.

To kick off the new year, episode 278 of the Better With Running podcast begins with a catch-up between coaches Chris Armstrong and Zac Newman, followed by a detailed interview with athlete Matt Watts and his coach, Forest Robinson.The episode opens with Chris and Zac discussing the challenges of the current Australian heatwave, which has forced many local runners to adjust their training significantly. Chris shares that he recently completed a session of 8 x 1km reps, averaging 3:29 per rep, with a particularly strong final effort of 3:19. He felt much smoother than in previous months, noting that he spent two hours recovering as a "vegetable" after a sweltering 25km long run. Meanwhile, Zac is making steady progress in his "rebuild" phase, hitting back-to-back 80km weeks and finding his rhythm again at Albert Park. He averaged 3:30s during a recent 6-minute interval and is starting to contemplate a return to road racing,This weeks run2pb guest interview is with Matt Watts who describes his relatively recent and rapid progression from a team sports background in footy and cricket to marathon running. After a long hiatus from fitness, he returned to activity via a "Couch to 5K" program, initially motivated by a desire to be a healthy role model for his young daughter. His progression was swift; he went from completing a 27-minute 5K to training for his first marathon in his hometown of Ballarat. Matt reflects on his early experiences as a "cookie-cutter" plan user, explaining that while those generic programs got him started, he eventually reached a plateau where he needed more structure and personal accountability.A major theme of the interview is the transformative effect of working with coach Forest Robinson. Matt explains that the biggest shift from "Old Matt" to "New Matt" is the move away from chasing arbitrary numbers to trusting a long-term developmental process. Forest chats about, focusing on building Matt's volume safely and keep easy runs easy. Matt has embraced this new structure, finding that having a coach in his corner has changed his perspective on training blocks, turning them into sustainable journeys rather than just countdowns to a single race day.With thanks to Oat Running our partner,Listeners of the show can get a a 15% discount using "run2pb15" at the check out.

What if the way you pay is part of the therapy? Some psychoanalytic therapists ask for cash after each session—not for convenience, but because money itself reveals emotional truth. Forgetting to pay, overpaying, or haggling can uncover hidden dynamics worth exploring. Vessy explains how two sessions a week can go far deeper than one and why honest talk about fees is as essential as discussing feelings. When money enters the room, therapy gets real—and that's where lasting change begins. #MoneyInTherapy #PsychoanalyticTherapy #FinancialTherapy #TherapyInsights #EmotionalDynamics #MoneyPsychology #TherapyProcess #BehindTheTherapyRoom #TherapeuticRelationship #HealingPatterns #DeepTherapyWork #MoneyMindset #EmotionalAwareness #TherapeuticChange #ExploringFeelings #TherapyConversation #MentalHealthPodcast #InnerWork #UnderstandingYourself #TherapyJourney A podcast that blends the nuts and bolts of financial advice with the emotions that drive our money decisions.

As we wrap up the year, we're inviting you into a different kind of year-end ritual—one that's less about resolutions and more about reflection. In this episode, we're doing a midlife audit: looking honestly at what we're ready to shed and what we want to intentionally carry forward into 2026. From other people's opinions to outdated expectations, we're talking about the emotional baggage that quietly drains our energy—and how freeing it can be to finally let it go.We also dig into what we're keeping: connection, meaning, nervous system regulation, health, authenticity, and the freedom to live outside the status quo. This is a grounded, honest conversation about midlife as a season of shedding skins, reclaiming agency, and choosing a life that actually feels good to live. If you're craving clarity, permission, and a more intentional way to step into the new year, this one's for you. Episode Highlights:[0:46] – Kicking off a year-end audit instead of traditional resolutions [1:18] – The inspiration behind “not caring anymore” at midlife [3:03] – Letting go as a lifelong practice and why shedding gets easier with age [4:40] – Releasing other people's opinions about our bodies, habits, and choices [7:44] – Being done with explaining ourselves—bedtimes included [9:28] – Downsizing, simplifying, and redefining what “home” needs to be now [13:09] – Midlife as a season of shedding and making space for what's next [14:45] – Letting go of one-sided or draining friendships [16:43] – Prioritizing nervous system regulation and protecting our peace [17:42] – Giving up pretending we're fine when we're not [20:00] – Choosing depth, authenticity, and real conversations over small talk [22:06] – What we're keeping: health, strength, movement, and time outdoors [24:56] – Filtering life through meaning, purpose, and connection [25:51] – Saying yes to connection and whole-body yeses [28:00] – Comfort over performance: clothes, shoes, and realistic expectations [30:08] – Speaking our truth, changing our minds, and honoring ourselves [31:02] – Letting go of the status quo and choosing a life that fits [34:44] – Remembering that life is happening now, not later If today's discussion resonated with you or sparked curiosity, please rate, follow, and share "Insights from the Couch" with others.

Do you think you need to completely overhaul your life to become mentally stronger in 2026? Whether you are planning to wake up at 4 a.m. or commit to a grueling routine, we're often told we need to create all new habits if we want to change our lives. But, big changes rarely stick. Fortunately, a few simple changes might help you build lasting mental strength. Today, I'm sharing three powerful, low-effort strategies that take just minutes a day but will help you build the mental muscle you need to handle whatever the new year throws your way. Some of the things I talk about are: Why most New Year's resolutions fail and the "tiny changes" alternative that actually works The biggest misconception about mental strength training (and why it doesn't require hours of your time) The 60-second strategy that will help you start your morning strong The one thing you can give up to feel refreshed every day The surprising thing that will help you build emotional strength each day How to turn these small daily actions into a cumulative effect that changes how you think, feel, and act Subscribe to ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Mentally Stronger Premium⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ for exclusive content like weekly bonus episodes, mental strength challenges, and office hours with me.

Purebred Dogs: Living History on Our Couch | A Year-End Reflection As we come to the close of another year — one that has been long, challenging, and filled with upheaval both globally and within the purebred dog fancy — it felt right to pause, reflect and remember why we do what we do. One of the great comforts of purebred dogs is their reliability. No matter what else is happening in the world, somewhere nearby there is a dog event — a show, a trial, a hunt test, a training day. These gatherings give us a chosen family: people who console us when times are hard, celebrate with us when times are good, and understand the passion that binds us together. On the Shoulders of Giants In dog breeding, one of my favorite phrases is “on the shoulders of giants.” While famous handlers may get the television time, the true unsung heroes of purebred dogs are the breeders. Breeders are the devoted advocates and curators of living history. Their imagination, vision, commitment, and endurance preserve breeds that represent centuries — sometimes millennia — of human partnership with dogs. And yet, too often, when master breeders pass, their hard-earned knowledge disappears with them. Pure Dog Talk was created, in part, to save and share that irreplaceable wisdom. Through our podcast archives, albums, and seminars, we aim to preserve the voices, stories, and experience of the best and brightest breeders worldwide — so that future generations don't have to reinvent what has already been learned. Purebred Dogs as Living History Every one of the 200+ breeds recognized by the American Kennel Club — and many more worldwide — represents a specific time, place, and human culture. Purebred dogs are a living, breathing continuum of history. Pedigrees bring that history directly into our homes. Some breeding records trace back thousands of years. Long before formal breed standards existed, early humans were selectively breeding dogs for climate adaptation, specialized diets, hunting ability, and companionship. Recent research has even reshaped our understanding of ancient breeds: TheGreenland Dogis now considered the oldest known dog breed, tracing back to the Pleistocene era.Basenjis, depicted in cave art dating to 6,000 BC, possess uniquely distinct DNA.Greyhoundsdescribed in a 15th-century poem still match the breed standard today — and every modern Greyhound traces back to a single dog whelped in England in 1839.Bedlington Terriersboast the oldest unbroken terrier pedigree, dating to 1782.Ancient breeds like theChow...
