Keep winning! Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Marsha Evans. A licensed mental health therapist, founder of Willow Tree Counseling & Educational Center, and creator of the FELT Experience and Marsha Listens wellness platform. The conversation centers on emotional health, nervous system education, sound therapy, community healing, and her evolution as a therapist and entrepreneur. Marsha shares her personal journey from being a competitive athlete to becoming a calming force for high‑functioning individuals dealing with burnout, stress, and emotional disconnection. She explains the origins of her signature FELT Experience, a wellness model designed to help people reconnect with themselves through somatic movement, sound healing, intentional rest, and community. She also highlights the challenges and breakthroughs in mental health—particularly within the Black community—and reflects on 16+ years of therapeutic practice. Purpose of the Interview The interview aims to: 1. Introduce Marsha Evans’ holistic mental health approach Rushion invites Marsha to explain how she blends psychology, somatics, and sound‑based healing to help people process stress differently. 2. Explain the FELT Experience and its healing framework Marsha details her signature F.E.L.T. model—Free, Expand, Listen, Transform—and why embodied emotional experience is key to healing. 3. Share her personal journey She discusses how sports, music, and modalities like breathwork and yoga helped her turn stress into purpose. 4. Encourage new perspectives on mental health in the Black community She and Rushion address the stigma, evolution, and growing acceptance of mental health support. 5. Showcase community‑centered healing Marsha emphasizes connection, shared experiences, and intentional spaces that allow vulnerability and transformation. Key Takeaways 1. Healing Requires Intentionality Marsha explains that activities like massage or yoga can be therapeutic—but only when approached with intentionality, presence, and consent to release emotional tension. 2. The Body Holds Stories (“The body keeps the score”) She emphasizes that the body stores emotional experiences, and modalities like breathwork, sound healing, and somatic movement help release what the mind can’t articulate. 3. The FELT Framework The FELT Experience moves participants through: F – Free: Permission to just be (coloring, resting, arriving without expectations) E – Expand: Allowing the body to open and receive L – Listen: To one’s own body, movement, and emotional cues T – Transform: The hardest phase—moving from chaos to peace 4. Safe Community Spaces Accelerate Healing Marsha’s events often result in participants forming friendships, emotional breakthroughs, and even planning outings together—an indicator of her program’s power. 5. People Are Conditioned to Avoid Emotions Growing up, she was taught to hide emotions in competitive sports—especially tears as a sign of weakness. Her therapeutic mission now is to help others unlearn similar conditioning. 6. Cultural Shifts Around Mental Health Marsha highlights major strides in the Black community, especially post‑COVID, as more people (including athletes) publicly acknowledge mental health struggles. 7. Therapy Isn’t Just Talking She incorporates nonverbal tools like: Play therapy Sand tray therapy Sound healing Somatic movement YogaThese help clients who can’t articulate their emotions—especially those conditioned to suppress them. 8. Human Connection Still Matters—even in an AI World Marsha is open to exploring AI in mental health but insists that physical presence, touch, and human empathy are irreplaceable. Notable Quotes (from the transcript) On her calming presence “I think laughter is good for the soul… just being able to find peace has been really big for me… It’s just a God‑given talent.” On coping mechanisms “As long as I had some type of music or some form of therapy… I could navigate any stressful environment.” On cooking as therapy (reflecting Rushion’s habits) “You’re creating new neural pathways… recalibrating your nervous system.” On intentional healing “Yoga and massages can be therapeutic, but you have to be intentional.” On the purpose of the FELT Experience “In order to release whatever your body is experiencing, you have to have a felt experience.” On the challenge of transformation “We are used to chaos… but we’re not used to healed environments.” On the evolution of her practice “I wanted to understand the whole person… and help them change the dial on their dashboard to fit their calling.” On mental health in the Black community “People perceive admission as a flaw… but healing is about understanding your story.” On creating safe spaces “By creating a space of safety and healing… people get to live the life they desired and not a life from survival.” #SHMS #BEST #STRAWSteve Harvey Morning Show Online: http://www.steveharveyfm.com/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

You've been told your whole life that getting older is something to fight off. That your value has a shelf life. That younger is better, more desirable, more worth something. And most of us absorbed that without even questioning where it came from or who it was built to benefit. In this episode Lauren is blowing that up. We're getting into why the fear of aging makes complete sense given what we were taught — and why what we were taught was never actually about us. What aging really gives you. Why accepting yourself means feeling things you've probably been avoiding for a long time. And how to start building real self-trust from the evidence you've already got. If you're a woman who has ever felt like time is running out, like you're behind, like getting older is something happening to you instead of for you — this one's for you.Erikas instaStay connected here Connect with me on Instagram  Please email me here: Lauren@ohyeahcoaching.comApply for coaching HEREWould You Date You?

While we often hear about triggers in everyday conversation, what does it really mean to be "triggered"? Why do certain people or situations spark such intense emotional reactions? And what's actually happening in your brain and body in those moments? We sat down again with Lia Love Avellino, LCSW, modern love therapist and community organizer, to unpack what triggers are, why they happen, and how to reframe them with curiosity instead of judgment. She shares practical techniques to regulate your nervous system, shift from asking "What's wrong with me?" to "What's happening for me right now?," and strengthen your relationships through deeper self-awareness and genuine human connection. Learn how to respond with intention – even when every instinct tells you to react.

Tommy Hughes returns to the Terrain Theory Podcast for a conversation that builds on our first exploration of Classical Chinese Medicine and takes it into even deeper territory.Drawing from the ancient medical classics, Tommy explains why Chinese physicians believed disease begins in the heart, how chronic emotional patterns can eventually become physical pathology, and why the body's symptoms are often the final chapter of a story that began years earlier. Together we examine the Chinese understanding of anger, fear, purpose, stillness, and the relationship between the inner climate and the outer world.The discussion moves through cancer, trauma, suppression, homotoxicology, Wu Wei, and the symbolism behind the ancient Chinese character for cancer itself. Tommy also shares why martial arts traditionally came before medicine, why biohacking can become another form of striving, and how the Taoist concept of non-doing offers a radically different approach to cultivating health.Rather than searching for another protocol or optimization strategy, this conversation points back toward something much older: restoring harmony, returning to one's original nature, and learning to move with life instead of constantly trying to control it.To learn more about Tommy's work, follow him on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/@naturallytom2302 or reach out to him at naturallytom@tutamail.com. Support Terrain Theory on Patreon!

Why do we still feel lonely when we're surrounded by people who love us? In this episode, we continue the conversation about loneliness by looking beyond the feeling itself and exploring the deeper longings underneath it. We discuss why loneliness is often less about a lack of people and more about a lack of meaningful connection, how our needs for connection change throughout different seasons of life, and why midlife often brings these longings to the surface. You'll learn how to identify what you're truly longing for, where you may be settling for interaction instead of connection, and how God can use these feelings to guide you toward deeper relationships with Him and others. WHAT YOU'LL LEARN [00:00] Why Loneliness Is Really About Connection, Not a Lack of People [04:00] How Midlife Creates Space for Deeper Longings to Surface [08:00] Why Authentic Connection Is a God-Given Need [12:00] How Our Relationship Needs Change Throughout Different Seasons of Life [15:00] Identifying What You're Actually Longing For [18:00] The Unhealthy Ways We Sometimes Try to Meet Our Need for Connection [22:00] Questions to Ask When Loneliness Keeps Showing Up [26:00] Finding Connection, Growth, and Support in Community  RESOURCES: Join us for “Navigating Loneliness and Disconnection in Midlife” (July 2026 Topic in the Emotional Confidence Club)   If loneliness, emotional disconnection, or major life transitions have been showing up for you lately, the Emotional Confidence Club is a place to process those experiences alongside other Christian women who understand what you're going through.  In July, we'll be taking a deeper look at loneliness and emotional disconnection, exploring questions like:  Why can I feel lonely even when I'm surrounded by people I love?  What is the difference between being alone and feeling disconnected?  What kind of connection am I truly longing for in this season?  Where is God inviting me into deeper healing, community, and relationship?  To learn more, visit: AliciaMichelle.com/club  RELATED EPISODES: Ep 359: When Emotions Feel Scary: Practical Tools to Courageously Process What's Inside Ep 365: God Reveals So He Can Heal (And It's Time to Step Into That Healing) Ep 367: Why Do I Feel Lonely in Midlife When I'm Surrounded by People I Love? Send us Fan Mail

I (Shanee) am sharing one of my biggest lessons from studying the Psalms in 2021- God is our refuge and wants us to run to Him with our guilt, shame, fear, and every negative emotion and need, so that He can minister to us with His steadfast love. We should not try to shut down our emotions or shame ourselves for being needy; instead we should take them to God, confident that His response is ALWAYS steadfast love and faithfulness for His children. He's always saying, "Come closer!" Scriptures on God as our refuge:  -Ps. 18:30- “He is a shield for all those who take refuge in Him.” -Ps. 31:7, 10- “You are a hiding place for me; you preserve me from trouble; you surround me with shouts of deliverance… Many are the sorrows of the wicked, but steadfast love surrounds the one who trusts in the Lord.”  -Ps. 37:39-40- “The salvation of the righteous is from the Lord; he is their stronghold in the time of trouble. The Lord helps them and delivers them; he delivers them from the wicked and saves them, b/c they take refuge in him.” -Ps. 46:1-2- “God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.” -Ps. 61- “Lead me to the rock that is higher than I, for you have been my refuge, a strong tower against the enemy. Let me dwell in your tent forever! Let me take refuge under the shelter of your wings!” Ps. 62- “For God alone my soul waits in silence; from him comes my salvation. He alone is my rock and my salvation, my fortress; I shall not be greatly shaken…Trust in him at all times, O people; pour out your heart before him; God is a refuge for us.” -Ps. 91- He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will abide in the shade of the almighty. I will say to the Lord, my refuge and my fortress…B/c He holds fast to me in love, I will deliver him; I will protect him, b/c he knows my name…I will rescue him and honor him.” -Ps. 119:114- “You are my hiding place and my shield; I hope in your word.” Scriptures on God's steadfast love: -Ps. 5:7- “But I, through the abundance of your steadfast love, will enter your house. I will bow down toward your holy temple in the fear of you.” -Ps. 5:12- “For you bless the righteous, O Lord; you cover him with favor as with a shield.”  -Ps. 17:7- “Wondrously show your steadfast love, O Savior of those who seek refuge from their adversaries at your right hand.”  -Ps. 18:19- “He rescued me from my strong enemy and from those who hated me, for they were too mighty for me. They confronted me in the day of my calamity, but the Lord was my support. He brought me out into a broad place; He rescued me, b/c He delighted in me.” -Ps. 25:10, 13-14- “All the paths of the Lord are steadfast love and faithfulness, for those who keep his covenant and his testimonies… His soul shall abide in well-being, and his offspring shall inherit the land. The friendship of the Lord is for those who fear him, and he makes known to them his covenant.”  -Ps. 26:3, 8- “For your steadfast love is before my eyes, and I walk in your faithfulness…O Lord, I love the habitation of your house and the place where your glory dwells.”  -Ps. 31:16, 19, 21- “Make your face shine on your servant; save me in your steadfast love…Oh, how abundant is your goodness, which you have stored up for those who fear you and worked for those who take refuge in you… Blessed be the Lord, for he has wondrously shown his steadfast love to me when I was in a besieged city.”  -Ps. 33:18-22- “Behold, the eye of the Lord is on those who fear him, on those who hope in his steadfast love." -Ps. 36:7-10- “How precious is your steadfast love, O God! The children of mankind take refuge in the shadow of your wings.” -Ps. 40:11- “As for you, O Lord, you will not restrain your mercy from me; your steadfast love and your faithfulness will ever preserve me!"  -Ps. 63:3- “B/c your steadfast love is better than life, my lips will praise you.” -Ps. 86- “Gladden the soul of your servant, for to you, O Lord, do I lift up my soul. For you, O Lord, are good and forgiving, abounding in steadfast love to all who call upon you…" -Ps. 90:14- “Satisfy us in the morning with your steadfast love, that we may rejoice and be glad all our days.” -Ps. 94- “When I thought, “My foot slips,” your steadfast love, O Lord, held me up.” -Ps. 103- “Bless the Lord, O my soul…and forget not all his benefits… who crowns you with steadfast love and mercy, who satisfies you with good so that your youth is renewed like the eagle's…The steadfast love of the Lord is from everlasting to everlasting on those who fear him.” -Ps. 107:8-9, 40- “Let them thank the Lord for his steadfast love, for his wondrous works to the children of man! For he satisfies the longing soul, and the hungry soul he fills with good things…Whoever is wise, let him attend to these things; let them consider the steadfast love of the Lord.” -Ps. 119:76- “Let your steadfast love comfort me, according to your promise to your servant.” -Ps. 136- “Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good, for his steadfast love endures forever…” (repeats, “for his steadfast love endures forever” 26X).

Most people know exactly what they should be doing to feel better, follow through, and build the life they want, but actually doing it is where everything falls apart. In this episode, we get into why mindfulness has been misunderstood, why your nervous system can block follow-through, and why awareness is the first step to breaking the emotional loops that keep you stuck. We dive deeper into this in the Habits & Hustle Podcast with Dr. Elisha Goldstein. We also chat about why mindfulness does not mean calm, how to interrupt overwhelm in real time, and why emotional vocabulary can completely change the way you understand your needs. Dr. Elisha Goldstein is a clinical psychologist, author of six books, and co-founder of The Center for Mindful Living in Los Angeles. He holds a Ph.D. in clinical psychology and has developed programs focused on mindfulness, emotional health, and behavior change. His latest book is Tiny Shifts: How Emotional Health Transforms Stress, Relationships, and Longevity. What's Discussed: (02:14) Why mindfulness does not actually mean being calm. (06:04) The three questions your brain asks before you follow through on a habit. (07:39) Why people already know what to do but still struggle to execute. (15:22) What emotional health actually means beyond basic stress management. (16:44) The “emotional loop” behind overwhelm, anxiety, and resistance. (26:19) The tiny shift that helped him move from feeling lost to finding purpose. (29:18) Why motivational quotes do not work when your nervous system is dysregulated. (32:32) How fitness becomes a training ground for discipline in every area of life. (52:17) The real reason discipline is so hard to build when you do not feel motivated. (1:15:34) Why emotional vocabulary matters more than saying “I'm fine.”  Thank You to Our Sponsors! Momentous: Ready to try supplements that actually do what they claim?

Learn why uncertainty triggers anxiety, overthinking, perfectionism, and the need to control outcomes. Drawing on Taoist wisdom, we uncover why uncertainty itself is not the real problem, and why your nervous system may be reacting to old patterns of instability and fear.Learn how overthinking becomes mental vigilance, why control creates more stress, and how calming emotional activation can bring clarity, trust, and peace of mind. You'll discover practical ways to regulate anxiety, stop forcing solutions, and take aligned action without struggle.If you often feel stuck in worry, rumination, people-pleasing, perfectionism, or the need to know what happens next, this episode will help you find stability from within rather than chasing certainty from the outside.With your hosts, David James Lees (ordained Taoist monk, emotional and spiritual health teacher) and Alexandra Lees (mindset and business coach).Learn more about David's online consultations, events, books and audio teachings: https://www.wuweiwisdom.comSubscribe to David's FREE Journal: https://davidjameslees.substack.com/Other related teachings on our YouTube channel that will help you:Our INNER CHILD PLAYLIST  https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL9NQ_PWX4zICGLRS1b7q1HSJhZRash5qqOur GOLDEN THREAD PROCESS PLAYLIST https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL9NQ_PWX4zIAsS_wgdRN7QGBKIk54sbyDIs there a question you'd like answered on the show?

Putting yourself first sounds simple until you actually try to do it. If you've ever said yes when you meant no, shrunk your own needs down before anyone even asked you to, or felt a wave of guilt the second you did something for yourself — this episode is for you. Lauren breaks down why so many women struggle to make themselves the priority in their own lives, and why it has nothing to do with being weak or not knowing better. From the way we're conditioned from childhood to center everyone else, to codependency patterns that hide behind generosity, to the attachment wounds that make self-advocacy feel like a threat — this episode names what's actually underneath the pattern so you can start seeing it clearly.Stay connected here Connect with me on Instagram  Please email me here: Lauren@ohyeahcoaching.comApply for coaching HEREWould You Date You?

We're used to hostile online encounters with total strangers. It fuels the digital economy. But what if there were a way to experiment with radical emotional honesty with an anonymous other—much the same as you'd experience at an Alcoholics Anonymous meeting? The anonymous founder of This Life, an audio-only app built on anonymity, joins For the Life of the World to argue that emotional and spiritual progress is still possible at scale. "What's really kind is to care about somebody else. And then even more kind than that is to allow somebody else to care about you." In this episode with Evan Rosa, Justin Smith (a pseudonym) reflects on what he learned in Alcoholics Anonymous, the genius of Bill Wilson, and why our voices carry so much emotional weight, and how sharing them—even (and perhaps especially) anonymously—can be a transformative experience of growth. Together they discuss anonymity as a path to honesty, the "spiritual hitchhiker," negative emotion as a force that wants to win, design as destiny, and becoming a neighbor. They also weigh technology's limits and whether spiritual and emotional progress can scale. Episode Highlights "What's really kind is to care about somebody else. And then even more kind than that is to allow somebody else to care about you." "I believe we live in a society that has given up on the idea of emotional or spiritual progress at scale." "Honesty with yourself is a skill." "If you begin to look at unhelpful negative emotion as a force that wants to win, what you'll notice is that we're in a fight that we're not well equipped for." "Meaningful spiritual development is impossible without honesty with other people." About Justin Smith "Justin Smith" is a pseudonym. The guest is the founder of This Life, an audio-only iOS app he describes as an experiment in emotional and spiritual progress, built around anonymity, self-reflection, and what he calls the "spiritual hitchhiker." A Christian shaped by his time in Alcoholics Anonymous and the writing of AA co-founder Bill Wilson, he draws on figures from Martin Luther King Jr. to E.O. Wilson and Fred Rogers to argue that honesty with others is the foundation of spiritual growth. By his request, and in keeping with the episode's premise, his real name, biography, and social accounts are withheld. Learn more about the This Life app on the iOS App Store.

The land doesn't care how many podcasts you've listened to or how much gear you've bought. When it's bitter cold, when the woodpile is low, when the pipes need attention, it calls on you, not your wishlist. That's the premise we start from at the cabin, and it leads to a blunt conclusion: the most important foundation for self-reliance is your health. We break self-reliance down into three essentials that rarely get the spotlight: physical health, mental health, and emotional health. Physical health isn't about looking perfect or training like an athlete. It's about maintenance that keeps you capable when the work is relentless: real sleep, food that fuels the day, and daily movement even when you're already tired. I share why ignoring pain and pushing through can cost you far more later, and why your body deserves at least as much care as the tools you maintain. Then we get honest about what quiet living does to your mind. Stillness doesn't magically fix the noise, it often makes it louder. Mental health shows up as clarity, calm problem-solving, and good decisions when a mistake is genuinely costly. Emotional health brings it home: independence isn't the same as isolation, and running away from something won't be cured by distance. Knowing why you're here, staying honest with yourself, and being willing to ask for help are part of the real work. If this resonates, share it with someone who needs it, and subscribe or follow so you don't miss the next conversations from the cabin.Support the showMy Self Reliance YouTube Channel- https://youtube.com/@MySelfReliance?si=d4js0zGc5ogYvDtOShawn James Youtube Channel - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC5L_M7BF5iait4FzEbwKCAgMerchandise  - https://teespring.com/stores/my-self-reliance

We've been asking our kids the wrong question since kindergarten. "What do you want to be when you grow up?" confuses identity with performance, and Josh argues we've been setting them up for anxiety and false selves ever since.This episode reframes the whole parenting mission around the theme of Jesus's central message: the Kingdom of God. When kids understand their personal role in building for the kingdom of God, their identity stops depending on what they do, what they have, or what anyone thinks of them. It's a parenting paradigm shift that gives our kids a purpose bigger than anything the world has to offer.We also announce the launch of a brand new parenting platform for raising emotionally healthy and spiritually mature kids called Raising Future Legends.*Once again, thank you to Bernhardt Watches for sponsoring this episode.

Many of us have learned that forgiveness includes minimizing hurt or making superficial reconciliation. These misunderstandings hinder us from stepping into the freedom we long for. Yet the Bible paints a more holistic picture of forgiveness that helps us trust Jesus with our emotions and follow him into relational wisdom. ​Join us for this episode of Soul Talks as Bill and Kristi bring helpful clarity to what forgiveness is and is not. You'll find the courage to surrender outcomes of conflict to Jesus and experience the settledness of releasing those who hurt you into his hands.

When we're choosing herbs to help someone, knowing their medical diagnosis isn't enough: we don't choose herbs for a diagnosis. As herbalists, we actually need more information! A medical diagnosis is a specialized vocabulary which creates a shorthand so that people who already know what it means, how it happens, and how to fix it, can speak more efficiently about (whatever it is). It's not an objective truth, though: it's a descriptive label that is useful in a specialized context. Herbalism is a different context.That's why it's not very practical to try to look up something like “herbs for neuropathy caused by a herniated cervical disc” – because we can't actually make that list without leaving gaps large enough to drive a truck through. The name of the problem isn't enough information for us to choose herbs, we still have to get more data! We need to understand what the diagnostic term means in absolute terms, and we need to know what the person's experience of that diagnosis is (because not everyone with a certain label has the same experience), and then we need to figure out what herbs or what series of herbs have the actions we need to work toward a resolution.So here's how we think that through – taking this example, and asking: what does “neuropathy caused by a herniated cervical disc” mean for an herbalist? Where exactly can we dig into that to make an impact? What other information do we need to allow us to pick the right herbs to support this person?This process for thinking everything through will work for any problem! It's all in this episode.This example came up in one of our live Q&A sessions last week. Those are a perk enjoyed by every one of our students – whether they're enrolled in a full program like Family Herbalist or Community Herbalist, a single course like Neurological & Emotional Health, or even one of our free short courses such as Herbal Study Tips. Anyone who's learning from us can ask us questions directly at these sessions, twice a week. And if you can't make it live, we keep an archive – there are more than 500 archived Q&A sessions for you to look through! (Don't worry, there's a searchable index so you can find what you're interested in.)Everything we offer is presented in self-paced online video courses, which come with lifetime access to current & future course material, the twice-weekly live Q&A sessions with us, open discussion threads integrated in each lesson, an active student community, study guides, quizzes & capstone assignments, and more!If you enjoyed the episode, it helps us a lot if you subscribe, rate, & review our podcast wherever you listen.

After a serious heart attack with no conventional warning signs, Dr. John Kim went searching for answers. He was shocked to find what conventional testing never unearthed: he was unknowingly fighting a Bartonella infection, a heavy mycotoxin load and parasites. This was when the pharmacist turned functional medicine practitioner learned the role cellular energy plays in health breakdowns, and, vitally, in healing.  In this episode, you'll learn about cell-danger response and the connection between biotoxins and mitochondrial dysfunction (did you know if your cells are healthy they repel parasites?!). Dr. Kim shares his best tips for cellular healing (butyrate, phospholipids and sunlight) and walks us through the steps he takes his own clients through: taking stock of your individual environment, healing your nervous system, detox pathways, strengthening the microbiome, and building resilience so you can live your life.

As part of the Steadfast Heart series, Leslie unpacks a little-known secret to emotional health - living for God's glory instead of for ourselves. While it seems counter-intuitive, when we choose to get out of the way so that Jesus can be seen through our lives, we experience lasting joy and peace. There is tremendous emotional freedom that comes from choosing to step out of the way, so that Jesus can clearly be seen in and through us - just as John the Baptist did when he said "I must decrease, but He must increase." (John 3:30) When we fix our gaze on Jesus and let others follow our gaze upwards, we will experience a soul-level emotional peace that can never be found in focusing on ourselves.
