That personal development mission that is just at my core of continuing to evolve into that complete person you're intended to be. And as a result, I've had the chance to build an incredible team. My team is my heart. I have enjoyed not only working alongside them, but also watching their evolution and pushing them to grow.7:45 - One perfect example is we launched an educational program called Real Talk back in 2016. And I got to really marry my two worlds. For those that don't know, I'm a former Miss Florida. I have absolutely loved being involved with the Miss America organization. And I saw an opportunity to have Miss Florida and potentially Miss America service spokesperson for Real Talk and the prevention of teen drug abuse and misuse. And so we were able to do something in tandem with the Miss America organization. We have Miss Florida who has been an ambassador for us for six years.10:14 - Our team is rooted in strengths-based coaching. We use Gallup's StrengthsFinder to help clients identify their strengths, because people will naturally gravitate towards “I need to fix my weaknesses”, or “I'm not good at this”. Your strengths are where you should stay in play.11:32 - A huge part of what's made me successful is the level of self-awareness and being able to articulate when I see a potential in something and having a plan to execute it. 13:21 - Don't be afraid to be amazing. Putting one foot in front of the next incremental growth on a daily basis is going to add up over time, and you'll be blown away by your results. But it requires you to actually take the step forward. And it doesn't mean you have to climb Mount Everest, it's literally one foot in front of the next like that's it. So don't overwhelm yourself in the process. Commit to growing, commit to learning.15:27 - I've been on this show and just throughout my entire life, really over the last 20 years, I struggled significantly when I was in high school. I had terrible eating disorders. I struggled with anxiety and depression—my own battle. I always utilized my voice to create change and try to create a safe place for other people to recognize that they were struggling with that themselves. And so I am now going to be working primarily with adolescent mental health, which is very exciting to me.17:15 - Happiness means being happy with how I'm showing up for others and with where I'm at. 15:22 - I struggled significantly when I was in high school. I had terrible eating disorders. I struggled with anxiety and depression—my own battle. I always utilized my voice to create change and try to create a safe place for other people to recognize that they were struggling with that themselves.Dear Mind, You Matter is brought to you by NOBU, new mental health, and wellness app. To download NOBU, visit the app store or Google Play. This podcast is hosted by Allison Walsh and Dr. Angela Phillips.

We wear that as a badge of honor, not something that we're shameful about, which is just a beautiful place to be able to work and come from and to be able to share our lived experiences with others.3:09 - We've had a lot of open, candid conversations, really asking very straightforward questions of how are you feeling? What's going on? How can I support you do you need time?3:18 - Being compassionate and empathetic to people first, and the employer second was the most important thing and allowed us to create this safe space to have open conversations.3:55 - Mental health is health.4:09 - Having these conversations on a more regular basis allows people to feel very safe and be able to be very open about what they're dealing with so that we can get them what they need. 4:18 - Give people the space and resources they need. Or just purely checking in with each other to let them know that we care on a deeper level and that you're not just another person that's on the team. You're a very special person that we care about.5:07 - One thing that a lot of us struggle with is the difficulty to decipher or determine what's appropriate for us to share and what are we really going to feel comfortable with.11:42 - We don't have cookie-cutter approaches. We were very focused on what are the needs of all the people that were taken care of in our centers or online with Telehealth.15:16 I've seen so much movement around big, small and medium-sized groups and companies wanting to provide their people with what they need. And they're really looking for a solution that's really going to meet all of those needs, which is why we love Nobu, why we love Advanced Recovery Systems, who we work with and for because we're able to really provide a lot of that.18:26 - When it comes to setting boundaries around work-life balance, it's really about being intentional about that transition from one environment or role to another, and then being consistent with that, and really respecting that time.20:03 - Boundaries are the greatest act of self-respect.Dear Mind, You Matter is brought to you by NOBU, new mental health, and wellness app. To download NOBU, visit the app store or Google Play. This podcast is hosted by Allison Walsh and Dr. Angela Phillips.

He is the Wellness Director and founding faculty member at Geffen Academy at UCLA, where he has created a program for students to learn about mental health once a week throughout their education from grade 6-12. Ross is also an award winning speaker, author and the CEO of Human Power Project, a company that designs mental health curriculum.Social Media Handle: @rossszaboPublications: A Kids Book About Anxiety, Behind Happy Faces; Taking Charge of Your Mental HealthMemorable Moments: 2:50 We're really kind of in just the beginning stages of mental health literacy. And what we're trying to do is tie that past history of physical literacy and mental literacy as a way to actually normalize conversations around mental health. 4:26 We need to start actually teaching that there are different categories for mental health challenges. One would be everyday challenges: stress, lack of sleep, body image issues, things like that. Those are things everyone experiences. Another category would be environmental factors. The next category would be significant events, so experiences with loss change, and rejection, and how that affects your lives. This is really critical in terms of normalizing mental health. Because most people are confusing these issues. But those aren't the same things. This is just one tool. Let's actually separate what you're experiencing so that you have a better vocabulary for it.6:20 - One of the most important things there is teaching kinds of sensitivity around what is a mental health disorder and what isn't. 6:25 - The conversations that are getting normalized now aren't actually beneficial. They're dismissive of people's experiences.8:06 - Mental health literacy and mental health education are different from social-emotional learning. 8:36 - Mental health literacy is important because the definition of mental health isn't having a problem. It's how you address challenges in your life.8:56 - Mental health should be taught the same way as physical health. What schools are mainly afraid of is becoming therapeutic centers. But there is a way to take a public health approach to mental health. 12:12 In the professional setting, put up boundaries and only share things you've processed. Give yourself the outlet so that you're not stuck to take things back or wish you didn't share some.13:27 - One of the most important things you can do as a parent is to model the behavior you want to see in your kids. The largest form of education will always be through example. It'll never be words.16:40 - It's natural for kids to have different things they like and have those things shift throughout adolescence. There's nothing wrong with that. But when it gets deeper than that, when you see that they're not able to do the things they used to do for a longer duration of time,  that's when it's time to call someone in.18:05 - As you go through the early decades of your life, you spend so much time building and trying to find what works for you that it takes a while to get to a place where you can be more present and be in a place where you're connecting.Dear Mind, You Matter is brought to you by NOBU, new mental health, and wellness app. To download NOBU, visit the app store or Google Play. This podcast is hosted by Allison Walsh and Dr. Angela Phillips.

But all of a sudden I was told there are now conditions that I was allowed to accept myself physically, and that was a scary thing, especially coming from my parents.7:46  One of the biggest drivers for depression is a future that doesn't seem like a place you want to be a part of doesn't feel safe and doesn't seem comfortable. In fact, it feels like it's gonna be a painful place, too, more so than where you are right now.9:18  On August 21st of 2012, life had been the most painful it has ever been. Every day was the most difficult day of my life, and I live in full confidence that the next day would be even worse. And when you do that long enough not only do not know how it got to this point, you don't know how to get out of it. Because there's so much shame and stigma wrapped around it, you don't know how to say Hey I don't know what I'm doing here but, man, things are not working out, and so I tried to end my life.11:05  I believe this to be true for the majority of people: Suicide isn't someone wanting to end their lives; it's someone wanting to end their pain.12:45  The things that we choose to believe have consequences on us and the people that we care about.15:42   The reason why I have survived all of those moments, those years, and that experience was because my body has never once given up on me. My body has been fighting for me since the day I was born, regardless of the way I treated it.16:18  When I switch the mindset to not what's the matter with me, but what matters to me in terms of my physical health, my social health, my emotional health, then you're very clear about which direction you want to go. Then every decision that you make isn't about what not to do. It's about what's going to enhance the opportunity for you to show up in life in a way that feels meaningful to you.19:13  The nutrition conversation is about trying to inform better decisions and patterns over time.20:28  Human research data over time shows that fiber is dose-dependent to benefit, meaning the more you consume, the better the benefit, the greater the reduction of all-cause of mortality, and the greater the increase of human health outcomes over time.28:12  What I think is so important, what I think matters most in recovery, isn't “Why don't they stop?” It's “Why does it make sense?” It's such a more valuable question to ask.28:30  If we can understand why it makes sense that someone uses drugs, we can reorganize their life, we can organize their dietary pattern, and we can reorganize their emotional patterns in a way that reconnecting seemed a lot more likely. Use may not stop entirely over the course of the rest of their life. But the intention may be different. And the frequency will be far less.Dear Mind, You Matter is brought to you by NOBU, new mental health, and wellness app. To download NOBU, visit the app store or Google Play. This podcast is hosted by Allison Walsh and Dr. Angela Phillips.

She is a sought-after speaker, podcast guest and host, and published author. Amy builds her life and works on a strong foundation of faith.Social Media Handle: @amyvanslambrookMemorable Moments: 2:47  I think one of the hallmarks of someone who's really of transformational wealth is that they've tried to separate them, they tried to exist in the mind without appreciating what's happening in their body and trying to be in their body without appreciating what's in their spirit and the three are so inextricably tied because they are mouthpieces for one another.4:36  It's great to have relationships when there's no pressure. It's easy. It's when there's the pressure that we are really exposed to the reality of our lives and our relationships.6:15  I really encourage my clients to take a pause and let themselves get silence in their lives because silence is when we face the reality of things.6:33  When we are silent, we're faced with looking in the mirror of what we've created not only on the front-facing image of our social media but what happens behind the scenes in the reality of who we are and the relationships that we have starting with ourselves, with God, with those we love the most in life.8:14  I really am such a champion for the fact that trauma, can be the biggest springboard for your life into a whole new level of success and triumph. It isn't something we need to run away from.8:58  I've been through decades of my own trauma, I can stand here and say it is the gateway to that next level in your life because it reconnects us to the truest part of ourselves.10:20  That is how post-traumatic growth really gets to shine because suddenly you're saying what inhibited my growth, what stunted my growth now can actually catapult it so that I can impact the world the way I'm supposed to.12:39  If you went through trauma as a child, that's kind of an imprint of how you are going to view all relationships happening. 14:18  We are usually drawn to people who not only give us the comforting feeling of home but also remind us and tend to wound us in ways we were wounded as a child.19:28  What matters most is absolutely going all in on what God has called me to go all in on. I just turned 50, and it has given me a new sense of liberation and freedom. I have never felt more motivated and vibrant and free because of all the healing work I've done.Dear Mind, You Matter is brought to you by NOBU, new mental health, and wellness app. To download NOBU, visit the app store or Google Play. This podcast is hosted by Allison Walsh and Dr. Angela Phillips.

She has also been known to occasionally perform as a circus aerialist.Social Media Handle: Instagram: @sherrywallingPublications: Touching Two Worlds: a guide to finding hope in the landscape of lossMemorable Moments: 2:24 Any kind of human that's under a state of stress is dysregulated. Their body is elevated trying to react to a stressor.  2:32 To help someone feel better in the midst of stress is to reregulate or bring their body and their mind down to homeostasis. Thoughts go slower, the heart beats slower, and breath is slower. If we can turn the slow-motion dial on that often helps stress feel much more manageable and accessible.3:22 When we can feel that sense of agency over our bodies and our lives, that feels so much better than feeling stuck on the tilt-a-whirl at the fair. And we're just moving so fast and we're like, ‘Yeah, I wanna get off.'4:47 Being in my own grief after the losses (of my dad and brother), one of the things that were so helpful to me was I really connected with my own body.  6:13 When we get into some kind of emotional expression, we can breathe again. It's a big exhale. It's like putting down the heaviness of all that we are carrying and being present with a different experience.6:27 Emotional expression allows you to have a little lightness, a little levity, or really express some of those negative emotions. Feel into your anger. Feel into your fear, but not in a way that feels like it's going to be overwhelming for you.6:52 Our society is kind of set up to move quickly through grief. Like policies related to bereavement leave. You might go to your mom's funeral on Saturday and on Tuesday, you're supposed to be back at work. There's not a lot of space for grief.7:09 A lot of us feel like we gotta muscle through hard things when we're in pain or suffering. But the tendency is to just keep going, just keep moving, just be gritty. And those aren't bad messages. I just think they may be out of balance.7:30 Don't go around pain or suffering. Don't avoid it. Don't skip over it. Talk about it. Feel it. Express it. Move toward the heart of what's difficult, knowing that that's where all the growth lies. That's where all the lessons are.  8:03  When you go in and through something - for instance, grief - there's no part of you that you don't have access to. There's no part of you that you feel like you have to hide from.8:56 Writing can be helpful for people who like to journal. Writing about your own experience can be a really powerful way to do some of that in and through work.9:13 If you feel like you want the presence of another human, it will help to be in therapy or go to a support group where you can begin to tell the stories to give life and words to the things that feel painful.  9:33 You can also try expressive movement such as a five rhythms dance practice where you pair different kinds of movement with different kinds of emotion. It can be a yoga session. There's something really can be quite healing about holding a warrior position and lingering there and letting your body do the work to breathe through and to hold that position.10:55 Doing grief better means talking about grief. It's naming those that we've lost. Naming the hopes that we had that never came to be.11:12 Doing grief better means we're collectively comfortable moving in and out of tender spaces, knowing that we can do that with gentleness and with some graciousness and not feel like we have to, again, skip over it and just get back to work and get back to normal life. That is quite damaging to people who are in any kind of grief.Dear Mind, You Matter is brought to you by NOBU, a new mental health, and wellness app. To download NOBU, visit the app store or Google Play. This podcast is hosted by Allison Walsh and Angela Phillips.

Her social impact initiative, “Prescription for Change: Addiction Prevention, Treatment and Recovery” was crafted from the responsibility she felt to reverse the addiction crisis after growing up in a family with substance use. As Miss Florida 2022 she will continue her partnership and employment with Advanced Recovery Systems, a leader in behavioral healthcare, which allows her the opportunity to repair lives, restore families and revive communities. Through her advocacy, she has saved over 315 lives and impacted over 975 lives. She recently became a nationally Certified Event Interventionist (CEI) and serves as an ambassador for two substance abuse prevention programs, Natural High and Real Talk.Social Media Handle: Instagram: @missamericaflMemorable Moments: 3:08  I grew up in a family with substance use. And it was something that was really associated with the dark parts of my life. So I really never saw it becoming a career because it was something that I always looked at and frowned upon...something that my family always swept under the rug and tried to keep hush hush. And as we grew and progressed through this journey, we realized that that was the worst possible thing that we could have done. And what we needed to do was reach out and get the resources that were needed in order to get my loved one healthy, and back on track and recovery.7:00  I remember the first time that I saw a real talk presentation, I was in college, and I will be the first to admit, I was naive about what was going on in the world related to drugs and alcohol. I didn't know all the science and the facts. And I'm glad that this program laid it out straight, because it's something that students need to hear. Because there are a lot of people like me that don't necessarily know what happens if you choose to experiment. 14:52 I think that that will forever be a part of my story, the fact that I persevered through something that could have been where I easily decided to just give up, bow out. But instead, we decided to go full force and go down kicking and screaming in the process. 19:36 My dad is my biggest supporter and always gives me his full okay to bring these stories to the stage and to bring them out to the public and I could not be more thankful for that because I know that our story is similar to a lot of other individuals that could really benefit from hearing this.20:05 What matters most to me at this point is that I have been handed this incredible opportunity. So what matters most is making the most out of that opportunity and making a difference.Dear Mind, You Matter is brought to you by NOBU, a new mental health, and wellness app. To download NOBU, visit the app store or Google Play. This podcast is hosted by Allison Walsh and Angela Phillips.

After a close family member tried to commit suicide in 2013, she began to speak publicly about the importance of de-stigmatising mental illness. Today, she openly shares her own struggles with anxiety and PTSD, which she was diagnosed with after witnessing a graphic knife crime in London.   With a background in filmmaking, Mari particularly loves working on stories that raise awareness. She believes that making the extremely personal experience of living with a mental illness widely accessible through storytelling can be a lifeline - not only to those who suffer in silence but also for loved ones who find it difficult to relate. She is currently working on her first book and in her free time she enjoys watching the colourful houseboats on the canal in her home borough of Hackney.Social Media Handle:Instagram: @maristrackeMemorable Moments: 2:38 You cannot sweep mental health issues under the carpet. It just comes back and it comes back bigger and worse.4:48  So often I think people who struggle mentally with things assume that “well that's just life.” 9:58  I initially just thought if I just talk about it the way I truly feel it without trying to think about the likes that you will get, or if it resonates with people, then I can, I can just, it's out out of my heart in a way, the negative stuff.10:54 But we are getting there, where we understand that we all have vulnerable sides. That's what makes us human. And you have such a bigger shot at building a stronger connection with people, if you actually show your vulnerability. And if you go beyond the surface.12:49 And so I had meaningful conversations. And sometimes it's just like an exchange of two sentences. And that's all I or the other person need in that moment. It snaps you out of that, that loneliness that I think fuels so many of the mental illnesses that we have.14:48  I feel like what else are we really here for if not making real connections? It's the most beautiful thing. And I think when you're younger, that might not be on the forefront of your thoughts. And the older you get, or at least for me, it's like, oh, well, of course, that's what I'm here to do, the enjoyment of the dialogue with other people and to share a little bit of their experience and the way they see their world. Yeah, it's very powerful.17:10 I often have to remind myself that I now live in a very nice bubble, of people who are advocating and who I have conversations with and where it's very open and where everybody is proud to be vulnerable. But that is a bubble, in the grander scheme of society that is not there yet at all. 18:15 Don't let anybody invalidate your pain.21:22 If you feel it, it's there. Pain is pain is pain is pain. There is no “oh, no, this pain is different than that.” And if you feel it, you have it. You have that pain inside you, and you're suffering from it. And so therefore, you deserve to be heard, and listened to and taken seriously. And to receive, ultimately, help.27:04 So that's the first thing I say to people. I'm absolutely open to listen, and I'm interested if you want to share it. But it's not for me to measure whether your pain is valid enough to now say, maybe try some therapy, maybe try some tools about breathing exercises, those kinds of things. Because you know that no one else is an expert on how you feel, but you. No one else, there's no other authority than you. 29:22 I think that's a big one for me at the moment to try and live fully. And by that I mean, go for the connection. Say yes to things.29:53 Life is about the dialogue with other people, understanding how other people see the world and understanding that my viewpoint is just one of very many. And we all have this experience on this planet. So living life to the fullest, for me, personally, is something [that] has become a mantra recently.Dear Mind, You Matter is brought to you by NOBU, a new mental health, and wellness app. To download NOBU, visit the app store or Google Play. This podcast is hosted by Allison Walsh and Angela Phillips.

Take a deep breath, walk away from a situation and be able to come back and face it better, because maybe I was angry, maybe I was frustrated. And if I continue staying in that headspace, it's going to consume me. 8:00 That's what's important for us, to really get these kids to think about that tomorrow can be a better day, and that it's okay not to be okay. And nobody, nobody in this world is perfect. And we all have our own issues and situations.11:15 We need to get back to allowing children to be vulnerable and have these feelings and say, you know, I'm learning [too] at my age...and instead, if I say, "Wow, I can't believe you felt that way. Let's talk about it or share with me, why do you think you have those feelings?", it makes it into a totally different conversation. And so at my age, I'm still learning how to work with people and my children, especially.14:15 We're so used to just going "well, I'm sorry, that happened." You know, let's just move on. And we've got to stop doing that because children are more sensitive today. They want so much to feel accepted...and so we've got to let them be the individuals that they are, but encourage them and you know, and help them through the rough times. 17:08 That's how we can help people figure out ways to handle this with their kids, [by] getting more and better resources out there at their fingertips.19:36 I get up every day and just want to make a difference and help that next child realize that life is important and to be resilient and not give up hope.Dear Mind, You Matter is brought to you by NOBU, a new mental health, and wellness app. To download NOBU, visit the app store or Google Play. This podcast is hosted by Allison Walsh  and Dr. Angela Phillips.

Right? No matter what it is, there's a road. The road may be long, the road may be short, but there's a road. 5:20 And so when we talk about self efficacy, we talk about goal setting, and we talk about self confidence, what I see is a lot of people don't realize that they have to set these small, tangible goals and build to their big goal. 8:06 So self efficacy is “I am able to.” [It's] what you believe you are able to do. 11:53 There is no one way to make yourself happy. There just isn't. There's a bunch of things that you can try that are out there. 13:16 The better physical condition you are in, the more likely you will be happy and healthy and productive and do the things in your life that you want to do, that you deserve to do. 14:28 There's some grit to it at the beginning. And the grit part is to make it a habit. That's grit. Like, there's some tricks to making things a habit, but when it comes down to it, it's going to just take you going “this is what I'm going to do.” 17:16 Before one seeks a mentor or to be around people that they would like to emulate or positive influences in their lives, they need to recognize the negative influences in their lives. Wow, I want to say that one more time. If someone is bad for you, get them out of your life.19:43 A lot of people want to succeed in their lives, they want to be happier, they want to be in a better place, yet they keep the negative influences in their lives, and they can't for the life of them figure out why they keep the negative things or people in their lives. 20:25 So cutting off our negative or limiting if we have to, our negatives, in our environment is just as important as looking at what we can do to surround ourselves with the positives and the people that we need to surround ourselves with.22:20  I want to have an impact in the world, continue to help people, continue to inspire people and really make a difference in people's lives.24:14 But no matter who you are, you're going to have setbacks, you're going to have difficulties, you're going to have losses, you're going to have breakups, you're going to have you know, grandparents and parents pass away…these things will happen to us, I don't care who you are. And we can choose to let those experiences define us. Or, we can let those experiences help us move on to better places in our lives.27:39 And if you're in a good place, then I would offer up your services to help others. And this book will inspire you to not just help at-risk youth, but seek to give, because we are all connected, and we can be so much more connected. And when we're in good places, we can do amazing things for people that we don't know.28:33 I wake up in the morning and say, How can I leave a positive impression? How can I help someone, how can I do something to make someone realize that they have some amazing abilities and beauty inside them that they can unleash? 29:12 But I guarantee you, once you make that initial step, everything will get easier. It just takes you showing up for yourself.Dear Mind, You Matter is brought to you by NOBU, a new mental health, and wellness app. To download NOBU, visit the app store or Google Play. This podcast is hosted by Allison Walsh  and Dr. Angela Phillips.

And I feel like we're in such a polarizing world in so many different ways. But one of the ways is, especially as ambitious people, ambitious women, we're feeling like we have to pick between hustle culture; this idea, this notion of like “work harder, do more, just keep going” and the other idea, the other side of the coin is the manifesting, like, you know, just hold this vision and speak it out and it'll happen. And I feel like I live in this gray area in so many places in my life, but specifically in how can we hold these visions of what we really deeply desire for our life but also, how can we take even micro action towards them?5:03 I think that there are, a lot of times, two different people: there's the "jump and then the net will appear" and then there's the people that are like, "I'm gonna weave this net so that I know with security and safety, I can make the leap."5:44 But for me, sometimes learning what I don't want or what I will not take or what I don't feel is in alignment with me is a better indicator of how I can start moving in the right direction.  5:57 I felt like I was riding two Clydesdales going in opposite directions because the life I was living did not showcase what I really wanted, what my values were, what I was heading towards. And in order to figure out how to jump from one horse to the other, I had to just take these micro actions and start working towards that vision of something else.7:45 I know so many people who start the degree for the dream job and halfway through the degree, they know that they don't want that job anymore. But they feel like they've already spent two years, why would they waste that? And it's like, Wait, we're wasting our future, knowing we're moving in a direction that's not going to serve us? And so for me, what's been so fascinating is working through this process of figuring out who am I? But not just who am I today, but who do I want to become? And I think a lot of times we put so much pressure on like, what sounds impressive, what sounds good, instead of saying what feels good in my life, how do I want to feel?  8:58 Our identities aren't fixed. We are constantly changing and growing and evolving. And I want us to continue becoming.  9:13  And a changed mind, I think, is like one of the most beautiful things that we can gift ourselves and in doing that, invite other people to maybe consider different things so that we can continue changing our identities, as we should as students in this thing called Life School and as people who can have their mind changed and become something different.11:18 Being a mom to a toddler, I've learned that you can tell a kid a stove is hot, but sometimes they need to touch it to experience it. And I think that a lot of people are that way; they have to experience something to really know that they don't want to do that again. But I think that the way that we are perpetuating this hustle mentality, it is only going to lead us there. And we have become people who have tuned out those check engine lights so long that something has to suffer for us to wake up to the fact that we're not doing something that's sustainable, whether it's relational or health-related.12:20 One of the things that I think is really important, is to talk about boundaries. I feel like balance was the word for a long time. And I feel like boundaries is the new word.  12:53 But boundaries, to me, have been my saving grace. They have been the thing that has kept me in my life...And so, when we think about burnout, what I want to come coupling alongside of that is boundaries, and how can we invite them into our lives, to really preserve our lives so that the lives that we're living feel good, but that we're enjoying them that we're not faking to enjoy them, or that we're not spending the whole journey in pursuit of the thing, missing the point.17:45 Strategy can get you really far. But when you really start to invest in who you are and who you're becoming, as a human being, that's when things really skyrocket.  18:08 If you don't have community in that way, find ways to invite it because it can be a really lonely journey, no matter what you're doing, when you don't have somebody who's in that similar life stage.Dear Mind, You Matter is brought to you by NOBU, a new mental health, and wellness app. To download NOBU, visit the app store or Google Play. This podcast is hosted by Allison Walsh  and Dr. Angela Phillips.

And that's, that's part of it. And those studies are definitely important in trying to understand the mechanism of those drugs and trying to understand what we can use those drugs for. Where we've been very focused is using and kind of engineering a rapid acting form of for repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation.5:47 So we've been very focused on trying to develop rTMS and kind of re-engineer rTMS into an approach that allows for us to treat people over a very short period of time.  7:25 The idea there is this is a way of treating rapidly by rearranging the stimulation in space, and time and dose.13:25 The highest risk of completed suicide is in the period right after psychiatric hospital discharge. [That's] rate of the whole lifetime. So we were very interested in that particular population, because we wanted to be able to treat people in these high emergency settings.  22:42 To me, the problem of really getting TMS in particular out there has been an educational problem.Dear Mind, You Matter is brought to you by NOBU, a new mental health, and wellness app. To download NOBU, visit the app store or Google Play. This podcast is hosted by Allison Walsh  and Dr. Angela Phillips.

You're coming along for the journey.6:39 The more we can discover our own unique energy and the more we can uncover how we actually want to operate, the more we can show up in relationships and in our career and on teams from a space of “I'm me, you're you, let's do that together.” And really honor that we all show up differently. And I just think it's such a gift to learn that, know that and express that to the world.8:12 That first step for having that reset is getting to know yourself and more importantly, beginning to shed the stories that aren't you. Because so often with our energy, like we're trying to run our energy as if we were someone else. 8:46 Getting to know what actually feels good for you instead of how you think you should be showing up, I think, is the first step for that reset.13:47 To me, balance is actually about noticing when your scales are tipping too far to one side, when you're getting really heavy in one area of your life, and then to be able to take yourself back to center. And that doesn't mean it's going to stay permanently.16:03 Human design brings these contrasts together, and shows you how you can use these different traits and energy and ways of showing up with the least amount of resistance.20:13 At this point in my life, what matters most to me right now is connection.Dear Mind, You Matter is brought to you by NOBU, a new mental health, and wellness app. To download NOBU, visit the app store or Google Play. This podcast is hosted by Allison Walsh  and Dr. Angela Phillips.

She helps people who want to improve their relationships and emotional awareness.Social Media Handle: @sitwithwhitMemorable Moments: 2:04 Toxic positivity is really this just unrelenting pressure to be happy and positive, and be pursuing that at all costs, no matter what the circumstances are. And I find that it's something that we use against ourselves and other people. The reason that positivity can become toxic or so damaging is that it ultimately becomes dismissive, causing people to shut down their emotions to dismiss what they're feeling and thinking. It also causes us to feel really isolated. 4:49 I feel like lately, especially over the last two years, we've all become a little bit more isolated. We've all kind of had these moments of like, what is important to me in life and trying to figure that out. But it's caused a lot of confusion for people. 6:28 Teaching people how to help us when we're struggling, I think, is a lot of our own responsibility.  I think if we can empower people to be more vocal about that, we can also stop putting so much pressure on ourselves to always know the exact perfect thing to say to someone. And that's when that toxic positivity usually comes up, is when we're just trying to figure out something to say or do about a problem that we don't know how to fix.9:29 Manifestation sort of proposes that like, if you think positively, visualize what you want, put it out there, you're going to get it back and that people get what is meant for them. “What's meant for you will never miss you,” like, we hear a lot of these, these phrases. And the problem I have with that is that I work with a lot of people who have had really unfortunate things happen to them. And I think you can get into this place where it's like, “okay, so that was supposed to happen to me. I deserved it in some way or it was meant to happen to me, it's going to have meaning later in my life.” 10:10 And it's an unfortunate reality that I think we have to remember when it comes to manifestation, all of these types of practices, that it's okay to use that line of thinking for good, positive things. But when you use it for everything about your life, it can be really damaging.13:00 And in that book, I tried to tackle a lot of the things that we think are negative. So like,  complaining, certain types of “negative emotions”, you know, even just feeling your feelings, talking to people about them. And then also giving people scripts or different things to say in situations where I think positivity really doesn't fit as a form of comfort or motivation.Dear Mind, You Matter is brought to you by NOBU, a new mental health, and wellness app. To download NOBU, visit the app store or Google Play. This podcast is hosted by Allison Walsh  and Dr. Angela Phillips.

As far as, if you don't want to drink or do drugs, you don't need to feel like the weirdo. Plus, I've had this long term sobriety and just kind of knew, like, the first year sobriety is so hard and so awkward. But if you had a sober wingman to kind of show you how to have fun sober, it kind of takes away this self pity card that we're all walking around with. Just that, you know, oh my god, I can have fun sober. 6:50 I think we're like a little nudge, a little poke to people like, “hey, you can host your own sober support events.” Like, it's okay. Just because you're in recovery, [it] doesn't mean you can't put your hand up, [it] doesn't mean you can't like, protect your own community. 7:48 You know, there's a community out there that to drink is to die. And how do we kind of help those people feel comfortable at these different events, because their life doesn't have to be over. Just because you're not drinking or doing drugs, you don't have to be like, you're the weirdo.10:38 We had a woman in long term recovery, who 25 years earlier, [at the] inaugural season, was asked to sing the national anthem at the Rockies. And she was so drunk, she couldn't leave the house. So she was so embarrassed, she left Colorado. A year later, she gets sober. So now she's 24 years sober, gets to come back to Colorado, sing the national anthem, and slay that dragon of that guilt and remorse that she had about it. And she got to tell that story at our sober tailgate beforehand.14:39 Then that one day came where the idea of life might be okay without alcohol. That's as much as I could kind of give with this first little, like step zero. Like somehow you gotta get a buy in to that life might be okay without alcohol.17:05 It was this big thing in my head. And people don't care. But it was the first time walking through that. And the second time you go through, it's still awkward, but not as awkward. And the third time, it's still awkward, but not as awkward and it just gets so much easier. But that first year, there's so many new experiences. So I think that's kind of why Sober AF is so important.19:47 I think we all need to give ourselves a little bit of a break, and just try to get back into whatever that groove was before. 20:50 I think we're in an unprecedented time that we won't realize how disruptive COVID was to the recovery community. So that being said, you're still alive, you got a chance to kind of get back on whatever that beam was before.23:29 I think as a guy who's 32 years sober, who goes back to meetings, I almost need to like, forget what I've learned before. Right? What worked in 1989 and the 90s, may not work in 22.  24:42 I think that is where we need to understand that's what the generation wants. How do we support people virtually, if that's kind of what the future is going to look like?Dear Mind, You Matter is brought to you by NOBU, a new mental health, and wellness app. To download NOBU, visit the app store or Google Play. This podcast is hosted by Allison Walsh  and Dr. Angela Phillips.

I've been in sales a long time. You know, “I know, I can do this.” And so that mantra, that attitude, is something that is one of my strengths. But it also became my greatest weakness because I powered through situations that were actually breaking me down. And I ignored lots of what I call signs and symptoms of burnout. 7:57 Burnout really starts in what I call the unders and overs...what I found is that 88% of the 1000s surveyed are feeling the Unders while they're working. And the top five unders would be undervalued, underappreciated, underpaid, underestimated, and under[recognized]. And when our unders are triggered, we go into overcompensation, which is why I call it the overs. And there's five primary overs as well. We overwork, we over stress, we overwhelm, we overextend as I mentioned in my personal story, and we overcommit, those are the five primary things.9:40 When someone's feeling undervalued, what's really happening, the root cause of burnout is, they're feeling unsafe, you know, the core feelings, I'm not safe, I'm not worthy, I'm not valuable. You know, something's wrong with me, those feelings are triggered, which is why we try to hide them by overcompensating.12:14 Our choices either serve us or they sabotage us.14:41 If I was to give a tip or a tool, it would be prioritize. Give yourself permission to prioritize your wellbeing amongst all the other things you're prioritizing. 15:45 As I've interviewed people on burnout is the things that matter, most of them, their top priorities are often shifted down to levels 3-4-5-6. And so my answer to that is permission to prioritize your wellbeing and the things that are important, in addition to prioritizing the yeses and the work. So it's a movement towards both.16:53 When I was first coming out of burnout, I call it one big boundary, but it was like, if saying yes to something else meant that I was saying no to myself, then I had to say no. And that was really hard because I hadn't yet turned inward enough where my validation came from within and my confidence came from within, like all of that I was still seeking outside me.21:25 When someone's feeling under-something and then they're overcompensating, they're longing for belonging. 26:36 It's not a game of perfection. It's a game of progress.28:44 I think that the biggest misconception [about workplace burnout] is that there's something wrong with us, there's something wrong with the individual. What I would say in the space of workplace burnout specifically, which is where I really spend majority of my study time, we have never and I say this we as a leader, have never really been taught the skills to help someone who doesn't feel valued or who is struggling with their self worth. There's not a coaching model for that in the workplace. And I feel like the biggest misconception is that it's the employees problem. It's everyone's problem.31:51 What matters most to me right now is my health and wellbeing. I love being a mom. I love my husband and my projects and all that stuff, and I don't get to do any of it if I don't take care of myself.Dear Mind, You Matter is brought to you by NOBU, a new mental health, and wellness app. To download NOBU, visit the app store or Google Play. This podcast is hosted by Allison Walsh  and Dr. Angela Phillips.

After medical school she had a spiritual awakening traveling the world touching every continent except Antarctica by age 25. She is now based in Malibu where she works with people worldwide via her online coaching and healing programs that empower us to live our ultimate lives. She stands for ultimate health, wealth, embodiment and love for all of humanity.Instagram: @drnikkistarrWebsites: Awakenyourspiritualpower.com and ultimatewomanuprising.com Memorable Moments:4:27 We're in the realm beyond health and into ultimate embodiment, like being your best ultimate self in every aspect.4:41 A lot of people are like, I know my life can be better, and I want to live my best life. And that's really exciting. And I like to say it's like an energy makeover. It's like a makeover in every aspect of our lives and how we're being and how we see the world.5:44 We really are making lemonade out of every lemon that life throws our way. And I think that's the beauty of this work is that our life is what we make of it. It is how we choose to see things that happen. And it is how we're choosing to live our life every day with our lifestyle and our habits and how we seek, and how we see our relationships and really allowing everything to work for us.7:35 Imagine that we're computers and we have software systems, and we can just delete the programs that are not serving us anymore. And we outgrow programs. 9:00 We live in an energetic universe. If we clear the energy charge, then we have a different experience moving forward.11:20 If we are choosing the belief system that everything is happening for our greatest becoming, then we can trust that every single thing that happens is for our greatest becoming and find the silver lining.12:33 I feel that when we want to manifest something, the universe is conspiring to make it happen for us. 13:52 Really [choose] how we're focusing energy, because what we focus on expands.15:02 I believe that we are co-creating a new paradigm. So we are in a time period on the earth where a lot of change needs to happen, especially if we want to create. So I believe that we can create a reality where there's abundance and love and peace and harmony for everyone. In order for that to happen, the systems that are not in alignment with that need to break down...So I look at a lot of these disasters, whether they're social disasters or even actual natural disasters, as opportunities for rebuilding.18:51 So energy is contagious. And it changes form and it can transmute other energy, right? So it's like it pick up the energy of the sun, it can start to heat other things up. So if you could be that kindness, that when you go to the store or you're in your relationships, and you'd be that love and kindness, that is the opposite of the thing you're seeing that you want to complain about. It's like, you be the solution. How can you take whatever's happening and be the solution and literally take an action that is in alignment with the opposite of the thing that's bothering you?19:31 Be mindful of the conversations you have. I like to tell my clients reserve time to talk about what is going wrong, and putting in quotation marks “what's wrong”, and what's going wrong or what's not going right. Reserve that for healing time. Not really just to vent because you're putting, it's like you're spewing that out into the universe and the universe is like, “Oh, they want more of that. Look. They love talking about it. Let's just give them more of that challenge.” And so really being mindful and finding the things or the conversations to be had that are serving you...So the best thing you could do is take an inspired action, that is some sort of self care or some sort of energy that is the opposite of the thing that you're wanting to complain about or be in victimhood about.22:29 I feel for me, it's so important to keep in my environment, be it people, places, things, where I live, how I live, that everything is in alignment with my truth and what feels really good for me and really putting myself first because I feel like that's how I can then share my mission with the world in a bigger way and show up for my relationships in a better way. 23:01 I do think it's so important, like, saying no to the things that are a no. Saying yes to the things that are yes, and heeding that.Dear Mind, You Matter is brought to you by NOBU, a new mental health, and wellness app. To download NOBU, visit the app store or Google Play. This podcast is hosted by Allison Walsh  and Dr. Angela Phillips.

She helps people embody the principles of health and wellness so that they can live fully integrated, embodied, lit up lives. She has taught students and coached clients across the globe and has consulted and created digital mindfulness content for yoga brands and mental health apps.Social Media: @selena.maisonpierre ; www.selenamaisonpierre.comMemorable Moments: 2:20 I started noticing that there was a real disconnect between the way people would show up on the yoga mat and how they would show up in the rest of their lives.2:35 I just felt like the wellness industry was doing it wrong and was really doing a disservice to a lot of people. And what it was really promoting was kind of a compartmentalization of practices. So people would show up to yoga, almost like a check mark, like, yup, I did it. Or like, yeah, I meditated. And yet they would go into the rest of their life back to the exact same way that they had been doing it. And I was like, we're missing something, something's missing. 3:08 I really connected with this idea of like radiance, where, when you really are connected to yourself and you're really embodying and integrating all these aspects of you, you radiate.4:18 Everyone comes to yoga at some point in their life when they really need it. And everyone comes to it for such a different reason. And it's really special to talk with people and hear, you know, what was that thing that led you into it? And usually it's not a very happy moment in your life that takes you there, but once you sort of tap into something and you attach to something within...wellness. You just sort of expand in these ways that you never could expect. And so I think that whether it's yoga, whether it's meditation, whether it's seeing a therapist, like whatever it is on a mental health level, just attaching to that one thing that feels personal to you and then being really open to the journey of where it takes you, I think is so special.10:34 The yoga is the bodywork, the coaching is the thought work, but it's all leading us to the same place.11:06 If you want to pick up a yoga practice or you want to start prioritizing your mindfulness, I always say, just start really small. Like, five minutes is better than nothing. And I also really encourage students and clients to really ask yourself why. So, don't just set some goal like "I want to do 15 minutes of yoga a day." Ask not only why, but what do you want to feel in doing that? 12:02 When you're connected to your intention and you let that lead everything, all of a sudden it's fun.13:30 For so many years, the word "help" to me felt so negative, like a weakness of needing help, and I really want to encourage people to reframe help as support and community. And it's not that you can't do it alone, it's that it's so much easier with somebody else, whether that's a coach or a therapist or a yoga studio or an app that pings you and reminds you, you know, don't forget to log in for your meditation. But reach out and create this powerful force of support for yourself. You don't have to do it alone.15:37 One thing that I work with clients on is planning ahead. So some people come to me on a coaching sphere, knowing that I'm a yoga teacher and one of their goals of coaching is they want to incorporate more yoga or movement into their life. So we look at your calendar on a weekly basis, look at your calendar and fit in where are you going to do 20, 30 minutes, an hour of yoga and put it into your calendar so that it's just already there. And it's almost like a meeting with yourself. It's non-negotiable. 17:00  I also think that finding little triggers in your day that lead you into doing something.So what I mean is like, if you want to incorporate more meditation, pick a time of day. Is it right after you drink your coffee? Is it right before you go to bed? Is it right before you take a shower? I don't know, something that already exists in your daily routine and you just add on a little bit of extra time for whatever it is that you're trying to do. So you're not trying to totally reinvent your daily habits. You're just sort of tacking in a little bit more onto something that you already do.17:50 I think really having this mindset when you go into building a new habit of like, you might not get it perfect every time and rather than beat yourself up for it, just know that there's always another day. There's always another opportunity to do it again. And you can just sort of like clean slate it, you know? Start over. 20:03 I really recommend journaling when you have a problem or when you have a moment where you think you kind of need to shift your mindset about something, to just start journaling and really ask yourself why. And just kind of like go down, why, why, why, why, why? And that's how I use journaling as little prompts just to take you deeper into yourself. 21:37 Until you journal, you kind of just loop around this mindset of frustration or whatever the feeling is. And then when you start journaling and you're like, okay, well, why am I mad about this? Okay. Why, why is that actually why I'm mad? Like why is this? And then you just kind of just go down these levels and I think it frees up your mental space so much because you can just move, move on from stuff that before felt like it was just totally heavy. 22:45 I'm at a point in my life right now, in this moment, where I just want gentle. I want warmth and I want support and so I need to give that to myself first.Dear Mind, You Matter is brought to you by NOBU, a new mental health, and wellness app. To download NOBU, visit the app store or Google Play. This podcast is hosted by Allison Walsh  and Dr. Angela Phillips.

When we go through particular things in life, we experience so much, and it does mess with the way that we think about the world and the way we see the world, especially when there's somebody who feels that they are absolutely powerless in a situation. That is one of the most crippling things.6:54 I can attest to that personally and it's not until you find your personal power that you can then become different and make a step and change things that you want to change. 8:06 What does it mean for men to be men today? What kind of, what element of masculinity do we bring forward? And as you see it across the world and in the cultural zeitgeist of the West right now, we're having a huge resurgence of what masculinity does for the world, what it does for us. So I'm asking all these questions and I feel like I owe it to myself to ask these questions.11:15 I had to write down all the things I believed about myself, that were inherently told to me, taught to me, expressed to me, whether that be directly or indirectly. And then how that has shown up in my life as an adult man. Right. And in doing all of that, I've really sat down and thought, “wow, all of these beliefs are not mine.” None of this is mine and I'm holding all of these things that so many people have put to me and said to me, and act it out towards me. So I had to go about trying to undo those beliefs. 12:47 I think that it's important to really think about those things. And that's where I would say to people, to really be able to look at really just kind of go and do, go and examine where these things come from and to spend time really having that honest conversation with yourself.16:53 Like we are taught to mask a lot of stuff, to hide a lot of stuff, to keep things inside. A progressive stance, say a protest around, for men would probably, a progressive one, would look like men being able to really fight for paternal rights or to really fight for emotional intelligence among boys, or to really fight for…those are the things that would really center in around men's progress. But, the kind of established network and structures of patriarchy and you know, I hate using this term, but the toxic side of masculinity inhibits us from being able to fight for that. So we move all of that energy away from ourselves and put it into things that are external to us. 18:08 So, the question for me is, where and when will we be able to, as men, really want to stand up for our own fight and healing, as men, and be able to allow and create this progress to then move forward together with everybody? Because obviously we intersect, we're human beings. We're on this earth together. 20:31 We have to have those conversations about consent. We have to have those conversations about safety and safe spaces. We have to have those conversations about oppressive language. Things that men are not taught to be careful about.21:52 We've had all these conversations but the real conversation that is upholding a lot of this and holding, trying to hold onto that oppressive night together, is masculinity and we're not having that conversation. And it's very difficult to some people, a lot of people don't want to have it.23:22 What's important to me is that we have, we have these conversations, we continue to have these conversations. And it's not about this whole thing, where you go in with one set of ideas and you should, and you hold onto these ideas for the rest of your time and having conversations. I'm open to knowing more and changing my mind and knowing different, right? I'm open to all of those perspectives and all these different things. Not everybody's going to agree that everyone's going to have the same perspective and same view, but that's the joy of a school being able to learn together and move together.23:57 my hope is that, and the one thing that matters most to me is that we get to a place where we can actually sit down and have a conversation that is progressive and can actually really push us, push us in a direction that is to change.Dear Mind, You Matter is brought to you by NOBU, a new mental health, and wellness app. To download NOBU, visit the app store or Google Play. This podcast is hosted by Allison Walsh  and Dr. Angela Phillips.

Maybe what we might say are the macronutrients of wellness, [it's] things that our grandparents told us, Hey, go outside, drink more water, you know, do these things. These are good for you. But for whatever reason, we've maybe grown disconnected from our capacity to engage them in such a way that really is meaningful and transformational.5:48 You might be doing something as simple as drinking water and thinking you're working on hydration, but you're also working on what happens when you pay attention to a small thing you do every day and how it affects you and the knock-on effects of that are you start to have awareness around "well, what are the other ways that I'm directing my attention and effort? Am I being present to my family? Am I being, how am I moving my body throughout the day? What am I putting in my body? How is it making me feel?"10:39 Oftentimes when we're under the greatest amount of stress or we find ourselves navigating particularly challenging circumstances, that is the time when we have to pay even more attention to self care. Because if we stop caring for ourselves, we can't really progress and care for anything else [or] do anything else that we care about.11:05 At the end of the day, you've got to be your own best teammate. You've got to be kind to yourself. You've got to extend yourself grace and recognize that you're human and that life is hard. But no matter what you're facing, there's still an opportunity to move closer to the things you care about. 12:31 We walk our members through the science of setting an intention and how to set an intention for what is it you hope to achieve as a result of going through this program. Where do you want to be in a year's time? And if you achieve that, why does that matter to you? Why is that going to inspire you to do the work between today and tomorrow and the end of this program? And, if you do that and you achieve it, what happens? What's different? How is it going to make your life better? But how also, is it going to make the lives of those around you better?13:50 I can't overstate the importance of intentionality and really, look, there is no one way to achieve optimal wellness. There are some overarching principles and you all, you all are familiar with these. But there's no one way.16:18 Past the age of about 25, there are really only two ways to change the brain. One is through a short, intense experience. It could be positive or negative. So birth of a child, loss of a loved one, car accident, food poisoning, getting married, but by definition, these are the peak experiences. These are things that they're either really high or they're really low, but they are the exception. The norm is what happens throughout. Between the peak and the trough, right? This is where most of our life is lived. And there is this, the second model for brain change really is around small, consistent actions done with awareness of cause and effect. 17:52 When you take time to pause and reflect on like, "wow, today was really hard. And even though it was really hard, I was able to do X, Y, and Z." And sometimes X, Y, and Z aren't going to be big things. Maybe they're small things, but I think the small things that we do in the face of challenge or adversity are sometimes the most impressive things. 18:12 And so taking time to register those wins and affirm them and celebrate them helps build a robust circuitry in your brain to recognize these wins more. And those wins can serve as fuel to help you build positive momentum. It's going to only increase your ability to get progress towards what you care about and give you that confidence and almost buffer you against uncertainty or setbacks that are bound to come.18:44 The great thing about registering these wins or recognizing them is much like the practice [of] gratitude. The more you practice it, the easier it gets and the more attuned you're going to be to, "oh, these are things that I'm doing really well." These are things we're celebrating or these are things worth being grateful for and it can fundamentally change and alter the way you move through your day and the way you experience life.22:41 I think the most powerful intentions recognize that we are social beings, right. That when we're serving causes outside of ourself, when we're recognizing that we're connected to something greater than ourselves, that is when we feel our best. 23:05 I find for our members, is that once they start engaging in self care and start [what we] like to say is “elevating their baselines” or feeling like they are improving their own mental and physical health, then they have more capacity to engage others around them. 24:53 Something that if you're in service for any length of time or in uniform for any length of time, that sense of mission and service, and again, serving causes that are bigger than yourself, just become a part of the fabric of who you are and so I knew when I left the military that I wanted to do something big and continue to serve big missions and I didn't have to carry a gun to do that.26:56 You can focus on the negative and downside risk and harm reduction, or you can focus on what are the things that bring out the best in you and being in pursuit of whether they're it's habits or mindsets or things in your environment that are in line with the way that the brain and body are designed.29:01 I think the thing that matters most to me is that I continue to find every opportunity I can to move closer towards the things that I care most about...making sure that I am taking every chance that I have to to move closer towards those things every day and when I don't and when I fall short, to be kind to myself and to re-engage as quickly as possible.Dear Mind, You Matter is brought to you by NOBU, a new mental health, and wellness app. To download NOBU, visit the app store or Google Play. This podcast is hosted by Allison Walsh  and Dr. Angela Phillips.

Find people on Instagram at @peterwaltersyoga Memorable Moments: 4:13 It was like the more I did [yoga], the more layers were being peeled away of, who I was and who I thought I was. And it continues to get richer every, every practice really.8:30 Yoga and meditation and so many of these practices are really enormous, valuable tools to help us come to the uncertainty and the unknown moments of life that will be earth shattering and shaking and painful and distressing.10:42  I'm seeing tons of people struggling with stress, of just being on computers all day, and anxiety about showing up like this and not being used to seeing people in person, and depression for feeling isolated and lonely. And I felt that myself, you know, and the one saving grace for me and I think a lot of students that I get to support, is having a regular daily practice of self inquiry, whether that's through meditation, through mindful walking, through yoga asana, through, you know, a fitness class. But it's just to show up regularly, in community with other people that you get to see. 11:47 I love yoga practice because it's always here and it's always available. You don't need to get all sweaty. You don't need to put on a yoga costume. You know, you can just move and breathe with intentionality and we can switch from fight or flight to rest and reset. 13:47 If you win the morning, you can win the day. So, the very first thing I do and I always try to suggest people do is like, it's so silly, but make your bed. You know, start with a positive, simple action that anybody can do...it takes all of 20 seconds to just put the cover over that you feel like, okay, I took one positive, intentional step to make my space and my mind feel organized. 17:10 It can be hugely simple. And I want to really reinforce that. Like, it does not need to be a complicated process or practice to sit, breathe, close your eyes for a moment. That's it. 18:50 The practices that I teach are timeless and they've been, they've been happening for thousands of years. And they've always been there and they always will be here, you know, and they'll be remixed by the modern practitioner and teacher, but, in the end, it's just like whenever you're ready to pick them up, they're here. You know, we all know that if we sit and breathe, we'll feel better.19:27 We set ourselves up for failure by front-loading everything to create this perfect idealized version of ourselves, you know? Once all this is complete, then I'll be done. But, the truth is...start really small, two minutes a day. And if you can do that for a week at a few minutes of sitting, movement, anything with intention with presence is a practice. And that could be mindfully walking, mindfully eating, mindfully doing the dishes, you know, it's just bringing full presence into whatever it is that you need to do.20:04 That's why I say the practice begins on the cushion or on the yoga mat. And then, if you're doing it right, it follows you out into your life. Everywhere you go.20:28 I don't think we should take what the internet is saying [or] is being more loud about as the thing we should be doing, you know? I think the practices that are worthwhile are timeless and we just need to do them. We all know what they are. We all know that if we eat the apple over the buttery sugary thing, we'll feel better, you know? So I think we all know what to do. It's just doing it. It's having the courage to pick the right option. 23:32 So I keep on circling back [to] how do I want to live out my days? You know, what could I do with my remaining breaths that feel significant and feel important and feel of service to other people? You know, I can live for me all my life. And I think we come to realize that's not very satisfying and fulfilling. You know, once you've made the money and done that, you're kind of like, okay, well, what now? That's an empty trap. 24:04 The spiritual teachers, the wisdom holders that came before us keep pointing to being of service when you don't know what to do, help somebody else.24:41 When we can't find the well of self motivation to uplift ourselves, I just look and say, how can I serve you? That's always been my tool to feel better, is just get out of my own way, get out of my own head, get out of my own narrative and drama and try to support somebody I care about.25:30 It's a sneak attack. We think helping somebody else is for them, but the truth is it's really for us, maybe more than it is for the other person. I think it's okay to be selfish in that, realizing that as much as I'm giving this to you, it's equally giving back to me.27:24 So what's important to me is just to keep diving in, you know, like you think you reach a layer with your partner or with a friend of connection and understanding, and then you say, no, no, no, clear that away. Let's go deeper. 27:17 One more thing [that] is really important to me is to keep setting down my stories and assumptions about myself, about life, about other people, about the political party I don't agree with. It's just to keep being a total beginner, to keep emptying myself, to keep letting go of all my associations of who I am or what my name is, what my gender is and what I like and what I don't like and just keep letting go, which is to say, keep accepting the moment as it arrives for me. And that's been such a cool, powerful, practice. Because you go into every moment being like, okay, well what's, what am I going to learn here? 29:02 We come into everything with our big backpack full of stuff, like, these are my opinions, these are my beliefs and, and we're closed off to other possibilities, you know? So just to arrive at each moment as empty as possible, almost childlike, big eyes and ready to learn and to be wrong and to have our minds changed.Dear Mind, You Matter is brought to you by NOBU, a new mental health, and wellness app. To download NOBU, visit the app store or Google Play. This podcast is hosted by Allison Walsh  and Dr. Angela Phillips.

The video is very moving.Memorbale Moments: 5:50 So that's why I think one of the most important things to realize is that a lot of people don't even go to the hospital when they fall or they get hit. They're like, “I'll be fine.” So that's one of the biggest things that gets misdiagnosed [around traumatic brain injuries].8:50 There's a lot of changes that were actually made in sports as well as in the military. So we had to come up with TBI guidelines. We had to come up with specific ways of diagnosing these three different categories. So there's three, right? There's mild, moderate, and severe.10:10 All this really came about because of awareness, because we found out that this is something we have to pay attention to because [it's] leading into all these other problems. And they can appear six months after an injury. And some of the patients that I see, those symptoms have been there for 10 years. 14:27 What's different about it is that in symptoms, we would go ahead and look at data that we already have, and we will see all these differences, all these disparities between men and women in just symptom reporting. The women were reporting more cognitive problems. After brain injury, women were reporting more psychiatric problems.15:36 Cortex can be a certain thickness and it's a variable that changes throughout life, but it's pretty stable in your adult stage. And usually the cortex of the brain is thicker in women than it is in men. That's just what the data shows. After brain injury, we compared cortical thickness between men and women after adjusting for age and, you know, skull size because men have bigger skulls, right? And so we were like, okay, are there any differences? It turns out that women who have brain injury somehow don't end up recuperating in terms of the mass of the cortex, as much as men. So men go back to their size, women don't. 18:37 I think it's mind blowing because we, you know, we have hormones, we bear our children. We have very different external stimuli that are coming to us. And somehow the treatments that are offered to men are supposed to be completely fine as-is for us. And they're not. I also just did another study in which I've found that the models that are created, machine learning models that are created for men do not fit the women. They fit, but not as well as they do for men.19:17 We know for a fact that our bodies, our stomachs digest medicine, different from men. We, our brains respond differently to medication than men. Our skull is smaller. We have less blood in our body. Our neck is thinner, which is one of the reasons why, and we have what's called when you jerk your head back in a motor vehicle accident, it's called whiplash. One of the reasons that women report more vertical and more balance problems is because we have a thinner neck. And it moves back. So there's all these tiny differences that can actually get really accentuated later on in life, if they're not treated.20:36 One of the base things really learned in the past 10, 15 years is asking somebody if you've had a TBI, that's not going to give you the answer. You have to really be interactive about it and assertive about it. In fact, a lot of academic centers have developed what's called TBI questionnaires, traumatic brain injury questionnaires, and this goes for a lot of different things, right? It can also go for depression. It can go for a lot of different things.Dear Mind, You Matter is brought to you by NOBU, a new mental health, and wellness app. To download NOBU, visit the app store or Google Play. This podcast is hosted by Allison Walsh  and Dr. Angela Phillips.

For the past 25 years, her work has focused on building resilience and embracing emotional well-being. She has been a program director at the VA San Diego Healthcare System and an associate clinical professor at The University of California, San Diego School of Medicine. A life-long yoga enthusiast, Rebecca has also been a yoga instructor. She was able to combine the ancient wisdom of yoga and mindfulness with compassionate recovery from addiction in her books. Rebecca has collaborated for over ten years with marriage and family therapist, Julie Kraft. Their first book together, The Mindfulness Workbook for Addiction: A Guide to Coping with the Grief, Stress, and Anger that Trigger Addictive Behaviors is popular with both therapists and recovering clients. Their workbook is used in virtual counseling, group therapy, and addiction recovery centers across the country. The Mindfulness Workbook for Addiction has been translated into Korean, Japanese, Hungarian, and coming soon in Russian! Continuing their writing journey together, Rebecca and Julie created a new book, The Gift of Recovery: 52 Mindful Ways to Live Joyfully Beyond Addiction. The Gift of Recovery is like a pocket coach offering lots of in-the-moment mindfulness skills and adds powerful daily affirmations as clients continue on their personal healing journey.The Mindfulness Workbook for Addiction: A Guide to Coping with the Grief, Stress, and Anger that Trigger Addictive Behaviors (winner of the San Diego Book Award) and The Gift of Recovery 52 Mindful Ways to Live Joyfully Beyond Addiction (Gold Winner of the Living Now Book Award and Silver Winner of the Nautilus Book Award)Memorable Moments: 4: 32 So being mindful means to stay, it's to center yourself in the present moment, which a lot of us can do, if we really focus on it and we learn the skill.5: 43 Mindfulness is a way to slow down the ability to react to craving. So if you have a craving for drugs or alcohol, for example, even during the pandemic, it's been a little bit out of control, of course. We'll talk about that I hope. You know mindfulness just tells you to be in the present moment, slow down, breathe.9: 40 This is an ongoing practice of continually taking the negative thoughts that are agitating you, affecting you negatively and moving them through. Thoughts aren't permanent. Feelings aren't permanent.16:00 In fact, addiction in the justice system is between 50 and 80% of folks who are incarcerated, have a substance abuse problem. So any clinician out there you're going to be dealing with folks who've been in the justice system if you're dealing with addiction. 17: 46 Usually there's softer emotions underneath that are being kind of protected, like feeling sad, hurt some of these softer emotions. Along with bringing it into the room, we also want you to bring patients into the room. My feeling is that stuck emotions really need your attention and they also need to have that kind of, that yin yang of self-compassion and patience.22:20 A lapse is not a relapse. So if someone lapses to a substance I would recommend that they remind themselves that a lapse is a one-time, you know, falling off the wagon kind of thing, where you'd use a drug or alcohol, and then you realize, oh my god, let me get back on the horse. Let me, let me get back on track.21:30 I would just want to convey to folks your listeners that call it a lapse, move into the lapse. If you have a lapse and get, go back to your wellness basket and return to the things that make you feel the strongest.Dear Mind, You Matter is brought to you by NOBU, a new mental health, and wellness app. To download NOBU, visit the app store or Google Play. This podcast is hosted by Allison Walsh  and Dr. Angela Phillips.

Their podcast is called Dear Chiefs and can be found at @dearchiefspodcast Memorable Moments: 7:38 What we've discovered through just recording Dear Chiefs is that there is a significant difference between station life and home life.7:43 A lot of people think that they are leaving their work at home when really they're bringing it with them home to the family.8:02 So they may be keeping in all their emotions and all of these things going on outside of home. But when they come home, it's "safe" to let all those emotions out. And so I think that's why we see firefighters, first responders coming home grouchy because this is a safe place to let that all go.And so I think commonly that's what we're hearing the most of is overtimes a problem and they're coming home being a completely different person than they are at the station. 12:43 For me, I think Audra agrees with this, finding support, knowing who you can go to for support, knowing if you have an employee assistance program, knowing how to access the employee assistance program, actually accessing it, going to counseling. These are things that we've both done and our relationships that we are big, big proponents of. If you don't know if you have an employee assistance program, go ask someone and don't hesitate to use it. That's what it's there for. 13:25 My number one thing is when you need help, know where to find it.13:57 We really are trying to break the stigma of going to counseling and how necessary it is, and really finding support and finding somebody to help you. 14:06 When you enter into marriage, you don't know what is going to happen. You have this crazy idea in your mind, but it's very rare that it actually comes true. You know, the fairytale Disney story is not reality.15:33 First, the first rule of being married is to communicate with each other. Right. You have to be open and honest and, you know  I think we've said it before, kind, compassionate, and curious.18:30 Within the structure of the family, I think it's really important, we call it the handoff when he comes home from work. I tell him, "this is what we have planned this week. This is what's going on. What are your plans? What are you thinking? What do you want to do?" And so then there's no miscommunication over what his plans were or what my plans were or what the kids are doing or, or anything like that. 18:56 I also prep my children for when he comes home. If I know there's been, you know, he's been gone for a long time or there's been a bad call, or there's been a line of duty death or something, something that I know is going to impact him, I sit my kids down before he comes home and say, "Hey, dad kind of had a rough week at work. Let's give him some grace." So we're constantly having those conversations in our home. 20:05 It can be, "Hey, we're going to set aside 30 minutes every night. When the kids go to bed and have a chat." We do it when he's not at work. We get our five minutes in...[if] we're not setting aside the time to communicate, we're not going to do it. Nobody wants to sit down and have tough conversations. It's just not a thing. As a human, I don't want to be uncomfortable. But it's necessary because that's where the growth happens.Dear Mind, You Matter is brought to you by NOBU, a new mental health, and wellness app. To download NOBU, visit the app store or Google Play. This podcast is hosted by Allison Walsh  and Dr. Angela Phillips.

Listening discretion is advised.  Robb Kelly, PhD is a renowned addiction consultant who believes in treating the problem of addiction, not the symptoms. He has worked for many years helping addicts and alcoholics to recover their lives from the disease of addiction. Based on his own experiences working with addicts and alcoholics over the last 20 years, a PhD in Psychology from Oxford University and as a recovered alcoholic himself – he is a triple threat against the disease of addiction. Dr. Kelly was the CEO of a thriving telecommunications company when the walls came crashing down on him due to alcoholism. He ended up homeless and broken on the streets of Manchester, England until he found the courage to save himself.   He has lectured on the subject of addiction at many high-profile universities, national conferences, treatment facilities, public schools, churches, business organizations and hospitals, and is recognized as a leading authority on addiction recovery methods that are changing lives all around the world. Dr. Kelly is currently the CEO of the Robb Kelly Recovery Group, an addiction recovery coaching company he created based on extensive research and behaviour studies that he conducted over the last 20 years. Dr. Kelly's methods may seem unconventional leading some people to refer to him as "The Gordon Ramsay of the Addiction World" because of his direct, no-nonsense, and candid approach to treating addiction. Dr. Kelly works to "make the road of recovery less of a mystery tour."www.facebook.com/drrobbkellytwitter.com/RobbKellyGrouplinkedin.com/in/dr-robb-kelly-07718133https://www.instagram.com/robbkellyrecoverygroup/Memorable Moments: 7:12:  I want to say off the bat is alcohol has nothing to do or hardly nothing to do with alcoholism and the same with drugs. It's not the alcohol. It's actually a predisposition with alcoholics and of course the trauma. Everyone asks me what the gateway drug is Dr. Robb? I say trauma, forget about marijuana. It's trauma. We need to get back and look at trauma. 12:24: Anything less than nurturing, as a child, is child abuse. So think about that for a second, because we have to be careful what our children are exposed to, how they eat, how they act around others. 15:34: The understanding of all this brings us to the fact that you can fully recover from alcoholism and addiction. You just know, knowledge is the game here. It's all knowledge. The more you know about brain science, the more you recover from the disease and get on with your life.16:39: Most of the traumas we forget and we hide away. And we disassociate with that traumatic effect. But where it'll come out is in your relationships. 17:19: So if you're looking at your behavior [and] you have certain traits that you get to a certain point in self-sabotage, there's trauma behind that. 20:22: And I'm guaranteeing you, and I mean guarantee, that if you do this and readdress your trauma, and you go back to the scene of the crime and you clear all that up, you will have a life beyond your wildest dreams.20:49: Everybody has trauma. It's just like everybody knows somebody who's an alcoholic or addict. And if you don't, then it's probably you. This is what I tell people, because the disease and the thought pattern and the depression is rife, but nobody's talking about it.21:18: It's about bringing people out and actually acknowledging that if you tell people you have a problem and you've recovered from it, it gives other people hope.23:53: If you're in that position, if you don't think you're good enough, if you don't think you're going to amount to anything, I want to apologize to you. Because somebody's put that there. We are born with million dollar minds. Stop hanging around 10 cent minds, guys. You can do anything that you want to do. 24:24:  Life's for living guys. Don't think this is your lot. You know, if you're homeless or sat in a one bedroom apartment and you can't afford food, this isn't your lot. This is training. This is your training. So when you go on, because it's all about helping the next human being along.Dear Mind, You Matter is brought to you by NOBU, a new mental health, and wellness app. To download NOBU, visit the app store or Google Play. This podcast is hosted by Allison Walsh  and Dr. Angela Phillips.

Gina also struggled with stress, anxiety, and panic for over 20 years.

She now teaches thousands of others how to do the same in a fraction of the time. After moving to Maui in 2005, Gina spent 12 years as a nutritionist/consultant for both the Intensive Outpatient Eating Disorder Center and the only Residential ED Facility in Hawaii sharing her compassion along with her knowledge and wisdom of the mind-body and spirit connection helping clients clear their food-related anxiety, obsessions, and compulsions. Gina is currently dedicated full-time to anxiety-clearing coaching, writing, and teaching clients around the world. She considers her work her calling and lives a mindful and compassionate life.Memorable Moments:8:08: Unless we can cultivate that [gratitude and meditation] in our relationship, that understanding that we are with our mind 24/7 and we have to build a relationship with it, not just keep pushing it away or not just keep adding things to it or being afraid of it. Because as we cultivate that, we begin to realize that we are not our thoughts. We have thoughts. 15:34: Exercise is so important and it gets left out a lot, when we're talking about mental health. A lot of times people just think it's about thinking, and again, we bring the body in. A healthy body is where a healthy mind can reside and we have to pay attention to ourselves as a whole.18:04: And we don't need to go into perfection with our food either. Doesn't need to go one way or the other, but we can begin to make friends with our eating and to take things out such as sugar.18:53: But when you are struggling with your nervous system being jacked up all day because of what you are thinking, the last thing you want to do is sip on something that releases those same stress hormones.22:32: It's not about the food, but it's not not about the food. 25:12: I think women were much more, at least in my experience, much more open to talking about it and getting help for it. So I think there's a lot of men out there not receiving the help that they need.Dear Mind, You Matter is brought to you by NOBU, a new mental health, and wellness app. To download NOBU, visit the app store or Google Play. This podcast is hosted by Allison Walsh  and Dr. Angela Phillips.

They have been the teachers of my heart for all these years.5:08: It [trauma] is unbelievably prevalent. If you look at the research, 1 in 3 women and 1 in 5 men by the time they're 18 have experienced some form of sexual trauma. We know millions of people walk around having lived in families where there perhaps was addiction or mental illness,   physical violence, witnessing domestic violence, neglect. Unfortunately, it touches millions of people.6:52: Anything that is subjectively experienced as threatening; anything that subjectively leaves you feeling like your privacy, your boundaries, your body in some way are being violated; anything that feels to you subjectively like a profound a breach of trust, that's in part how we would define what traumatizes a person.8:12: It's very common for people to not connect the dots between past experiences and the current symptoms or struggles that have manifested for them.9:01: Unfortunately, there are many many ways that people can creatively self-medicate.Dear Mind, You Matter is brought to you by NOBU, a new mental health, and wellness app. To download NOBU, visit the app store or Google Play. This podcast is hosted by Allison Walsh  and Dr. Angela Phillips.

Listening discretion is advised. Amber Anderson is a Southern Region Prevention Specialist with Prevent Child Abuse Illinois. She is a seasoned foster/adoptive parent who loves researching and learning more about trauma, Adverse Childhood Experiences, and Positive Childhood Experiences. She is a strong believer in helping children and meeting them where they are at to get them the help and services they need. She is an avid camper and lover of the outdoors and works hard to pass that love on to the kiddos in her care. She's married with one biological child, two children adopted from foster care, and currently one foster child. For more information please visit, preventchildabuseillinois.org.Memorable Moments: 8:44: One of the coping skills that we teach our kiddos, when we see them maybe getting too hyper or maybe emotions are coming out...we take them out to the tree. They can beat up the tree, they can run around the tree, they can yell at the tree, whatever it is that they need to do. And that's one of my favorite coping skills that I see with my kiddos because it gives them a place where, maybe they're not ready to talk to an adult or they're not ready to talk to someone about what they've been through but they know that tree isn't going to tell someone else.9:56: One [coping skill] we use a lot is a positive outlook. Higher ACE scores tend to have very negative outlooks on life. On the way to daycare, my husband will have the kids say “good morning, it's a beautiful day”. They started saying that to the cows, to trees, whatever they see on the way to daycare.14:04: Like I said, it takes one caring adult to make all the difference. That could be a teacher that's just willing to say “hey, let me help you on that homework.” You don't know what's going on in these kiddos' households, so having just somebody that's willing to step up and say “hey, I got you. Let me help you with this.” 15:34: There are so many different resources out there right now. “Self care” is such a buzz word right now. We're coming out of a pandemic, we've all been trapped in our houses with 4 kids and trying not to lose our minds and trying to work from home, we've all got stuff going on. We tried Frozen-themed yoga. It's laugh therapy mixed in with yoga and it's fantastic. Just finding something that you like to do. That's what works for us.Dear Mind, You Matter is brought to you by NOBU, a new mental health, and wellness app. To download NOBU, visit the app store or Google Play. This podcast is hosted by Allison Walsh  and Dr. Angela Phillips.

A lot of our inner struggles come from a negative and self-critical mind. In our culture, there is a strong emphasis on comparing ourselves to others. This social comparison epidemic is making us unhappy. A critical mind is an unhappy mind You are always going to find someone that seems to have a better life than yours. The more you try to do, the more you compare, the more unhappy you feel. Your mind is the source of your unhappiness, not your circumstances. Look inside your mind and your thoughts if you want to find the source of your struggles. Your happiness depends on it. Build a kind mind If you want to sustain a happy mind, you must create a kind mind. A kind mind knows that … Envy and blame are toxic emotions. It is more important to be caring and loving than to be right. Regrets are defeated judgments, and focusing on life lessons is better. Being flexible and forgiving are strengths, not weaknesses. To build resilience, you have to be vulnerable. When you make mistakes, you grow. Unconditional love is the only real love. One quote: “Any hardship that you experience is a life lesson.” – Haemin Sunim One question for you: Has your mind been kind or unkind to you today? ----- If you're enjoying this podcast, please subscribe and/or leave a review.
