In this episode of Money Tales, our guest is Dr. Claudia Six. Money and sex are two of the hardest topics to talk about, and yet the ones that touch every relationship. Dr. Claudia Six has spent decades helping people open up about both, and what she's learned may surprise you. In this episode, she shares how her unique path from growing up in Paris to counseling Silicon Valley entrepreneurs has shaped her understanding of connection, vulnerability and the role money plays in our lives. Raised in the vibrant streets of France and now a beacon of sexual health in the Bay Area, Dr. Claudia Six brings over three decades of expertise to her private practice as a Clinical Sexologist. Fluent in the languages of both English and French, yet free from the stereotypical French accent, Claudia's approach to therapy is as direct and compassionate as her life's journey from Paris to San Francisco. Educated with a Master's in Counseling Psychology and a PhD in Clinical Sexology from the prestigious Institute for the Advanced Study of Human Sexuality, Dr. Six is not just a therapist; she's a pioneer in her field. Her credentials, including board certification by the American Board of Sexology, underscore her commitment to excellence and her passion for helping individuals and couples navigate the complexities of intimacy. Author of "Erotic Integrity" and a sought-after speaker, including a TEDx talk on 'Performance Anxiety in Women', Dr. Six has made significant contributions to the discourse on sexual health. Her practice is a haven for those grappling with a spectrum of sexual and relationship issues—from mismatched desires to the intricacies of performance anxiety. Dr. Six's philosophy is straightforward: "Nobody is broken." She believes every sexual and relational challenge makes perfect sense within the context of an individual's life story. Her therapeutic style is candid, authentic and aimed at putting clients at ease, even when discussing the most vulnerable topics. Beyond her professional achievements, Dr. Six is a mother, an adjunct professor at the University of San Francisco, and a member of professional organizations like the Society for the Scientific Study of Sexuality and AASECT. Her work, both clinical and academic, is driven by a profound belief that understanding and addressing sexual health is integral to one's overall well-being. To learn more about how Dr. Six can assist in transforming your relationship or sexual health, visit her at www.drsix.net or connect with her on social platforms where she shares insights on fostering intimacy and sexual wellness. Remember, with Dr. Claudia Six, it's never just about sex; it's about the bigger picture of how we show up in the world.

In this episode, Julia speaks with Unnati and Jenny, two women who joined the Women Emerging expedition on leading with a disability or chronic condition, about what it means to lead when your body demands a different pace, and how that changes everything about how you lead yourself and your team. They start by exploring the pressure to push through pain, mask discomfort, and pretend you're fine, especially when you're the one in charge. Both share the emotional cost of ignoring your limits, and what happens when you don't give your team permission to share their pain and limitations. From there, the conversation moves into the nuance of vulnerability. What do you share about your condition? When does it build trust and when does it start to center you too much? Listen to this episode to rethink what strength looks like and to discover how self-awareness, emotional literacy, and forming a relationship with your body might just be the leadership shift we all need. About the Guests: Unnati Joshi is a development professional with over a decade of experience in community outreach, partnerships, and program management. Currently serving as a Senior Program Officer at Mountaintop International, she holds a degree in Psychology, an MBA in Marketing, and certifications in Counseling Psychology, CBT, and Adolescent Guidance. Committed to education and community development, she collaborates with social leaders and engages youth and women through storytelling circles, fostering spaces for connection and growth. An advocate for mental well-being, Unnati focuses on holistic development and community resilience while pursuing personal and professional growth. Jenny is an advocate for ‘Systematic Inclusion', bringing to life the criticality of accessibility if we are to become an equitably safe and sustainable world. Jenny is dyslexic and has ADHD and believes that “the way that my brain is wired differently is an asset”. This led her to leading the Heathrow Inclusive Learners Partnership to ensure equitable pathways for learners to gain experience, internships and work. Jenny advocates that each person should have an equitable seat at the table and creating an environment that is safe for everyone; to challenge and improve the way we interreact and build the world around us.

Arianne MacBean writes, “Your anger is the spark of your inner fire.” As outlined in her upcoming book, Tough Shit: The Angry Woman's Guide to Embodying Change, that spark is something every woman deserves to honor. This week she joins me for a conversation that's all about reclaiming that fire and learning how to channel it into transformation. Arianne is a licensed marriage and family therapist in Los Angeles with a certificate in somatic psychotherapies and practices. We talk about the power of anger as a tool for self-knowledge, how the patriarchy taught us to suppress it, and why embracing it is one of the most radical acts of self-compassion a woman can take.  Arianne also shares how her background as a dancer and choreographer shaped her somatic therapy work and how tuning into the body allows us to uncover what's really beneath our anger: fear, sadness, hurt, and ultimately, truth. This conversation is such a beautiful reminder that anger isn't something to fix, it's something to feel, follow, and transform. ✨ If you'd like to watch the video version of this episode, you can find it here. What you'll hear about in this episode: Why anger is powerful information, not something to suppress (3:32) How somatic therapy connects movement, body awareness, and emotional healing (5:36) Ways to use anger as armor and as a guide toward deeper healing (13:20) The surprising history behind the phrase “tough shit” and Arianne's reclamation of it (19:30) That there are men actually doing the inner work on themselves, facing hard truths, and learning to show up differently in relationships (34:35) Learn more about Arianne MacBean: Arianne MacBean is a Somatic Psychotherapist, writer, and educator. She taught dance at the middle, high school, and college levels for over twenty years and was the Artistic Director of The Big Show Co., an LA-based dance-theater group. She holds a BA in Dance from UCLA, a Double MFA in Dance & Writing from California Institute of the Arts, and an MA in Counseling Psychology from Pacifica Graduate Institute.

The Love Bite presents us with a woman's refreshing view of the UFO and alien abduction phenomena. Many people find themselves mysteriously thrown into obsessive relationships, but a few otherwise reliable witnesses claim to have been set up into bonding dramas by alien beings.

In this episode, I talk with Josh Silver, -- a teacher, mentor, and mystic who has spent nearly five decades exploring and embodying expanded states of consciousness. Josh is the creator of the SHE concept, which stands for Sun, Human, Earth. It's a profoundly simple yet deeply transformative way of reconnecting to the evolutionary forces that gave rise to life itself.SHE isn't a technique in the usual sense. It's a living relationship. Standing barefoot on the Earth, opening to the Sun, breathing with intention, and allowing our awareness to remember what it means to be a conduit between Heaven and Earth. For Josh, this is about living as what he calls a “non-mystical mystic,” bringing the extraordinary into the most ordinary moments of daily life.We talk about his remarkable journey, growing up in New York City as the son of a prominent rabbi, his initiation into Siddha Yoga by Swami Muktananda in 1976, and the years he spent immersed in blissful oneness. These experiences ultimately led him back to the natural world, to the Earth beneath his feet and the Sun above, as his greatest teachers.A special part of this conversation is when we speak with one of Josh's current students, a man named Ivancito, who has embraced the SHE path in his own life. His presence brings the philosophy into real time and shows what it looks like to live in alignment with this Earth and Sun connection. Hearing his perspective adds a living, breathing layer to the conversation and shows how the SHE concept isn't just an idea but a felt, daily experience.Josh shares how the SHE practice has enhanced his well-being on every level, psychological, physical, spiritual, and relational. Together, we explore how this path dissolves the illusion of separateness, awakens vitality, and aligns us with the deep evolutionary current that has always been moving through us.Josh shares practical ways to integrate this Earth and Sun connection into daily life. No special equipment is required, only a willingness to remember who and what we truly are.This conversation is a reminder that the most advanced technology we have access to is nature itself, and that by standing barefoot on the Earth and opening to the Sun, we can come home to a much greater identity. An incredible, fun episode.. Drop in!You can learn more about Josh's work and offerings at www.sun-human-earth.comJosh Silver Bio:In 1976, Josh Silver was initiated into Siddha Yoga by the master Swami Muktananda. For the next 4 years, he lived in spiritual communities spending extended periods in the profound experience of existence as blissful oneness. He's spent the past 45 years integrating this awareness into his daily life and seeing all of us as embodying this same inner state. He has done this while raising 5 children with his wife, earning a Master's in Counseling Psychology, teaching a range of parenting classes, and running the Charlottesville Fatherhood Initiative. He developed and offered different personal growth programs — JELL (Joyfully Embracing Love and Life), Full Spectrum Manhood, and IHP (Individualized Happiness Program).After realizing that he shared humanity's profound disconnection from the Earth and natural processes, he began a deep dive into reconnecting to our Source. For the past 8 1/2 years, he's identified as the 4.5 billion year evolutionary process of Earth, Sun and the emerging human, standing barefoot outside approximately 4 hours a day, directly experiencing and contemplating this miraculous reality. Along with free-form dancing and play, this has resulted in a natural, step-by-step process to integrate and embody expanded consciousness in joyful celebration for all aspects of life.

The Neoliberal Round Podcast by Renaldo McKenzieEpisode Script: “Faith, Film, and the Future Featuring Abria Jackson”Creator/Host: Renaldo C. McKenzie[Intro]Hello everyone, and welcome to another episode of The Neoliberal Round Podcast. I'm your host, Rev. Renaldo McKenzie.Today, I'm honored to sit with the dynamic, ever-charming, and deeply talented Abria Jackson—an actress, mentor, and graduate student whose career and calling blend art, faith, and service.Abria recently starred in Night of Violence, which opened at the prestigious FrightFest in the UK. She traveled to London with her mother to witness the premiere, and we'll talk about that powerful experience. We'll also dive into her work on Law & Order: Organized Crime, her inspirations from Viola Davis and Halle Berry, her mentoring of young women, and her pursuit of a master's degree in Clinical and Counseling Psychology.[Segment 1 – The UK Premiere]Renaldo: What was it like, sitting in that London theater with your mom, watching your film open FrightFest?Abria: “It was very emotional. My father passed away a couple of years ago, and he was so supportive of my dream. Knowing my mom was in the audience reminded me that I have people who love me and support me. I also felt like my dad was there, watching from heaven. My mom was cheering, even when no one else was, and people around her were cracking up—it was unforgettable.”Renaldo: What did it mean personally to have her there?Abria: “It felt full circle. God was reminding me to keep going, that I'm on the right path. The fact that my mom was alive and present for that moment—it meant everything.”[Segment 2 – Acting as Healing]Renaldo: You mentioned Catwoman, a Black rock star, and Tanya from Mortal Kombat as dream roles. Why those?Abria: “All three connect directly to my childhood. They'd heal my inner child. Acting was more than entertainment—it was spiritual. Growing up, life wasn't always glitter and rainbows. Acting gave me an outlet, and now keeping that inner child alive helps me bring truth to every role.”[Segment 3 – Balancing Faith, Career, and Self-Care]Renaldo: How do you balance school, career, and everything else?Abria: “I'm very intentional with my time. I write everything in my planner and make sure I hit my goals. But I also remind myself that you can't pour from an empty cup. Self-care matters. For me, that's $5 Tuesdays at the movies—it's my reset.”Renaldo: And your faith?Abria: “Faith keeps me going. My mom once bought a name meaning that said Aabria means faith. That's my story. When auditions don't come, when money's tight—faith carries me.”[Segment 4 – Mentorship & Psychology]Renaldo: Beyond acting, you're also co-leading a mentorship group for teen girls and pursuing a master's in counseling. What inspired that?Abria: “Even in high school, people would come up to me and share their lives. It felt like a gift God placed in me. Now I want to perfect that gift—get licensed, gain knowledge, and help people in ways that blend spirituality and service.”[Segment 5 – Vision & Legacy]Renaldo: Looking ahead, what legacy do you want to build?Abria: “When God calls me home, I want people to say my life was an act of faith. Of course, I want roles that move people. But more than that, I want to be remembered as someone who served—who gave advice, helped people, and carried them through. What profits a person to gain the world but lose their soul? Character and service—that's the legacy I want.”[Closing]Abria Jackson is more than an actress—she is a storyteller, a servant, and a woman of faith. From Philly to London, from film sets to mentorship circles, her journey reminds us that art and service can walk hand in hand.You can follow Abria on Instagram at @itsabriajackson and on TikTok under her name.And stay tuned for her upcoming TV series Losing My Pride, expected in 2026.Thank you for listening to The Neoliberal Round Podcast. Until next time—walk good.

Hopelessness: A New Approach Featuring Mike Christensen Often, therapists are drawn to become specialists in the very area where they once suffered and felt most vulnerable. In Mike's case, he describes his own feelings of failure, betrayal, bitterness and hopelessness in his early career, and how he found his way to become a star in the TEAM therapy firmament. Today, he describes a breakthrough approach in the treatment of hopelessness as well, based on the A = Assessment of Resistance portion of TEAM. Mike began by saying that treating hopelessness is always a challenge. . . in fact, I can vividly remember when I felt hopeless! And of course, part of the challenge is the fear that hopeless patients may try to take their own lives. This is the “dark side” of clinical practice, and it is not often talked about because of the terror it strikes in the hearts of mental health professionals. Mike started out with a bit of his traumatic personal history. He explained that he once owned and ran a bicycle shop in Canada when he was in his mid- to late-twenties. “There was a fellow businessman in my town who was a bit older than me and somebody I really looked up to. He was successful, had a beautiful family, was well respected in the community and had some wonderful friends. One day I got a phone call from my wife and she said to me:  ‘Did you hear what happened to John? She went on to tell me that it was shocking and terrible because he was somebody who enjoyed hunting. One day he went out to the family cabin and took his shotgun and took his own life. Mike said that at his funeral, “I can remember it like it was yesterday hearing his daughter's voice when she spoke and those words that she said.  “Daddy, why were you so sad?” “A number of years later we had moved on, sold the business and our home and moved to another town to work in an organization supporting people. I had done my degree in theology with focus on youth and counseling and was working with young families. Unfortunately there were some real difficulties in the situation and it did not turn out very well after a little over a year. He felt betrayed, and ended up with no job. He was now in his mid to late-30s, and got a job in a hardware store. “I was really struggling with the sense of confusion, frustration, depression and hopelessness. Even though I had a supportive family, and had been successful in many areas of my life. He recounts, “One day I looked in the mirror and as I was having those thoughts of hopelessness I was reminded of John, my business colleague who had taken his own life 10 years earlier and I thought about my 2 young daughters.  I could hear John's daughter's voice: “Daddy why were you so sad”  in my head and I thought I have to get some help” “My wife is a nurse and has a very wise family physician, Dr Mariette deBruin, who is incredibly skilled at empathy. Fortunately, she had been at a mental health conference earlier that year and heard this brilliant psychiatrist share a powerful approach to treating depression without medication. That psychiatrist was Dr David Burns. She suggested I get a hold of the book, Feeling Good, and that was the start of my recovery in 2006. I went back to grad school  to do my Masters in Counseling Psychology and then attended my first workshop with Dr. Burns  in 2009.” Looking back, I realized that hopelessness was actually my best friend. I was in a tremendous amount of pain. Here were some of the positives I discovered in my feelings of hopelessness: In my previous work, I'd been hurt badly, stabbed in the back. My hopelessness was my way of punishing the people who'd hurt me. I was saying, “Look at me. I'm a broken shell.” I felt like this gave me some value. . . as well as a sense of revenge.” I had placed a lot of value in my success in my life, three beautiful kids, and a great athletic career (biking), and my hopelessness protected me from the disappointment of dashed dreams in my new career. I felt I was being realistic. Hopelessness validated how severe my problems were. Hope trivialized it. When I'm working with practicum students or interns that are early in their counseling or therapy career, one of the greatest fears that they have is that one of their clients or patients will take their own life. Sadly, when you go into this line of work the reality is that at some point, someone we work with in some capacity will experience that level of hopelessness and so I have to inform them that “suicide is not if, but when.” This is why it's so critical for us to know how to  work with it. He explained that “Hopelessness validated how I felt. People were all trying to cheer me up. That's the WORST thing you can do. “My TEAM training was pointing me in the opposite direction. Validating it and acknowledging it took the pressure off of it and began the process of bringing about tremendous relief.” We discussed the power and value of Positive Reframing, even with the hopeless patient, as well as the value of empathy. He said the Positive Reframing shows that “you totally get what this is like for me.” The positive reframe serves as our most profound empathy tool. By enabling us to perceive the world through the eyes of our clients or patients, it eliminates their sense of isolation. The hopelessness shows something beautiful and awesome about you. He recalls his early training in TEAM, and the immense value of the Externalization of Voices and Feared Fantasy work he did with David to challenge his negative thoughts, including: I really AM a failure. David must be thinking that I'm an embarrassment to him. David is also thinking, “I can't believe I let you on this podcast.” We illustrated the Externalization of Voices and Feared Fantasy live on the podcast, including the blow-away Acceptance Paradox. Because of that training, “I am no longer afraid of failure!” Thanks so much for joining us today! Mike, David and Rhonda

On this Freedom Friday, we wrapped up our weekly theme, “Back to School,” with a few professors and staff members from Moody Bible Institute (MBI). First, we were joined by Dr. John Mabus to discuss healthy spiritual formation. Dr. Mabus is an Associate Professor of Applied Theology and Church Ministries at MBI. For the past 14 years, Dr. Mabus served as a Navy Chaplain, sharing the gospel and caring for people in the context of military life. He also has professional interests in spiritual formation and discipleship, reformation practices in pastoral care and discipleship, suicide prevention and intervention, and leadership advisement and coaching.

She is also the author of “20 Things We’d Tell Our Twentysomethings Selves.”Then we had Dr. Mikel Del Rosario join us to discuss the legitimacy of the New Testament Bible manuscripts, despite the differences in their wording.

Having believed, you were marked in him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit, who is a deposit guaranteeing our inheritance until the redemption of those who are God's possession- to the praise of his glory.”   Ephesians 1:15–23 “For this reason, ever since I heard about your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for all the saints, I have not stopped giving thanks for you, remembering you in my prayers. I keep asking that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, may give you the spirit of wisdom and revelation, so that you may know him better. I pray also that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which he has called you, the riches of his glorious inheritance in the saints, and his incomparably great power for us who believe. That power is like the working of his mighty strength, which he exerted in Christ when he raised him from the dead and seated him at his right hand in the heavenly realms, far above all rule and authority, power and dominion, and every title that can be given, not only in the present age but also in the one to come. And God placed all things under his feet and appointed him to be head over everything for the church, which is his body, the fullness of him who fills everything in every way.”   Ephesians 2:8–10 “For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith – and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God – not by works, so that no one can boast. For we are God‘s workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.“   Ephesians 2:13 “But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far away have been brought near through the blood of Christ.“   Philippians 1:6 “being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.”

In Part 3 of The Journey Beyond Death—and the second installment of our Mental Health Resiliency arc—we take a deeply personal and professional dive into the labyrinth of grief. Guided by voices shaped through trauma, therapy, and triumph, this episode explores the raw emotional landscape that follows profound loss. With the haunting echoes of personal stories—from being raised by Holocaust survivors to losing parents to Alzheimer's and suicide—our guests share tools that helped them move through sorrow with grace: meditation, therapeutic writing, community, and nature. Psychotherapist Megan Bruneau and holistic psychiatrist Dr. Rebecca Valla illuminate how grieving minds need structure, empathy, and non-judgmental support. Clinical psychologist Dr. John Huber breaks down how guilt and irrational thinking can derail healing—and what practical methods can restore inner balance. Dr. Pat Baccili delivers powerful spiritual and psychological reflections on trauma and the human need to witness grief without solving it. We also highlight Functional Health Practitioner Karen Shoshana's unique insights into how somatic care—sleep, breath, nutrition—can ground us during loss. And Dr. Gaini De Silva offers a compassionate look at adolescent grief and physical practices for emotional regulation. Together, these voices reveal that mourning is not a timeline but a terrain—and those who traverse it consciously can emerge stronger, wiser, and more open-hearted than ever. This episode reminds us that grief is sacred. It is an invitation to become more human, more whole, and, paradoxically, more alive. Whether you've just begun your grieving journey or are still haunted by echoes from years ago, this episode offers powerful emotional tools, insights, and hope. --------------------------------------- Featuring in order of appearance: 01:00 – Karen Shoshana 11:00 – Psychotherapist Megan Bruneau 13:46 – Dr. Pat Baccilli 20:00 - Forensic Psychologist Dr. John Huber 42:40 – Dr. Rebecca S.
