Romantic relationships are sacred, powerful, and life-giving. But I don't have to tell you how difficult it is to love and let yourself be loved.Marriage and family therapist Dr. Terry Hargrave has been helping couples in crisis restore broken relationships for decades, teaching them how to get unstuck, improve communication, and move beyond destructive coping mechanisms—to find reciprocity, self-affirming confidence, emotional regulation, and a joyful, lasting love.In a world marked by loneliness, disconnection, and emotional dysregulation, Hargrave offers powerful insights on the human need for identity, safety, and belonging—and how we can heal the wounds that keep us stuck. Drawing on decades of therapeutic experience and deep personal reflection, Hargrave explains how coping mechanisms like blame, shame, control, and escape can damage relationships—and how the peace cycle of nurture, self-valuing, balanced give-and-take, and connection can restore wholeness. He discusses his unique approach to the healing and restorative power of relationships, which lifts us up to our potential, encouraging us toward a nurturing, self-valuing, non-controlling reciprocity, and true connection.In this conversation with Terry Hargrave, we discuss:How to turn around a relationship in crisis and get off the emotional rollercoasterHow to build security and trust in order to improve or repair a marriage or long-term relationshipCoping mechanisms of blame, shame, control, and escapePractical steps to learn emotional self-regulationWhat to do when only one partner is working on a relationshipThe role of the brain and neuroplasticity in relational repairAnd the spiritual underpinnings of Terry's approach to restoration therapyEpisode Highlights"It don't mean a thing if you ain't got that swing—until you claim your belovedness for yourself, nothing will change.""Relationships are a mirror—we discover who we are through how others see us.""Blame, shame, control, and escape—nothing good comes from these coping mechanisms.""Understanding doesn't produce change. Doing produces change.""When we nurture, self-value, connect, and cooperate, unleashed joy happens.""Thriving is doing more of your best self, not learning something new."Helpful Links and ResourcesRestoration Therapy Training ResourcesThe Mindful Marriage by Ron Deal and Nan Deal (with Terry and Sharon Hargrave)Five Days to a New Self by Terry HargraveEmotionally Focused Therapy and Sue Johnson's LegacyShow NotesIntroduction to Terry Hargrave and the importance of Restoration Therapy today"We are still the same humans, but with a bigger pipe of problems and fewer emotional connections."Emotional dysregulation linked to identity and safety threatsRelationships as a mirror to the self and necessary for human thriving"For there to be a me, there has to be a thou."Why relationships are difficult: imperfection, wounding, and unmet needsHow family of origin wounds influence coping styles"Families don't mean to screw each other up, but somehow they manage to."Introduction of the four major unhealthy coping mechanisms: blame, shame, control, and escapeHow overachievement, perfectionism, and withdrawal are survival strategies from early wounding"Your greatest strength might actually be an old coping habit getting in the way of intimacy."The relational signs that coping mechanisms are damaging relationshipsHealing through self-regulation: speaking truth to yourself with love"Put your hand on your heart and remind yourself of who you really are."The difference between co-regulation and self-regulation in emotional healingRestoration Therapy's peace cycle: nurture, self-value, balance, connection"Nothing good comes from blame, shame, control, or escape."The role of practice and neuroplasticity in forming new relational habits"Doing, not just understanding, is what rewires the brain."How thriving relationships move from neediness to adventurous partnershipIntimacy as knowing yourself more fully through connection, not just need satisfactionCooperative growth and mutual flourishing as hallmarks of thrivingApplication of restoration principles to broader societal healing and reconciliation"Unleashed joy happens when we choose nurture and connection, even with adversaries."The critical role of faith in affirming belovedness and ultimate identity"Everyone else and even God can tell you you're beloved—but you have to claim it for yourself."Practical advice for knowing when to seek therapyWhere to find Restoration Therapy-trained therapistsResources for learning more: Mindful Marriage and other Restoration Therapy booksThe key takeaways that I will carry with me from this conversation are the following:You can change. Your relationship can change. But it takes a daily practice of hard work to create lasting change.And though you might fail, there is hope that you can begin again.Our coping mechanisms are not superpowers. They hurt us and the people we love.Understanding is not enough. Action and behavior has to follow for change to occur.[Any others?] It takes two to tango, but that doesn't get you off the hook from doing the work on yourself.And finally, a thriving relationship creates joy all around it, within a family, in a community, and it shows how personal relationships can change society.About Terry HargraveDr. Terry Hargrave.

How many times have you convinced yourself you were healing—reading the books, attending the workshops, repeating affirmations—only to find yourself stuck in the same cycles? In this episode of Wickedly Smart Women, host Anjel B. Hartwell interviews Anat Peri, inner child expert. Anat dismantles the illusion of surface-level self-development and invites us into a deeper, more embodied path to transformation.  Anat's story is a masterclass in surrender, resilience, and leadership. She pulls back the curtain on why mindset alone isn't enough and how emotional resiliency is the true foundation of freedom.  If you've ever felt like you're “doing the work” but not actually changing, this episode might just be the wake-up call you need. What You Will Learn: How growing up with a “just think positive” mindset can unintentionally lead to emotional suppression and anxiety. Even a seemingly trauma-free childhood can create hidden wounds that shape adult behavior and relationships. The impact of emotionally unavailable parenting on future romantic patterns and the development of codependency. How traditional healing methods like mindset work and NLP often fall short without addressing the body and nervous system. What it means to live in your head versus being fully embodied. The difference between awareness and actual healing. What it's like to rebuild your life guided by intuition instead of external validation or cultural expectations. How working at the Chopra Center supported Anat's reconnection with herself through meditation and holistic practices. Why transformation can feel like walking through fire and why it's worth every uncomfortable step. The origin story of Training Camp for the Soul and how Anat turned her healing into a powerful business. Emotional resilience and nervous system capacity are important in being an effective coach or healer. How Anat's Mastery Certification Program equips coaches with more than tools. Why you can't just coach from your own healing story and what makes a sustainable coaching method. Connect with Anat Peri Training Camp for the Soul Connect with Anjel B.

Welcome back, connected parents! In this heartfelt episode of Connected Parenting, we're diving into one of the most emotionally challenging moments many parents face; the shift that happens when your child starts to pull away and step into the world of adolescence. I take a close look at this transition, especially between mothers and daughters, when the once chatty, affectionate little girl becomes more withdrawn, independent, and focused on her peers. For many parents, this change feels like a form of grief—there's a sadness, a sense of being left behind, and a deep questioning of where they now fit in their child's life.Full of empathy and grounded in practical advice, this episode offers strategies to stay close, even as the relationship begins to change. Whether you're in the thick of it or seeing the early signs, today's episode will help you navigate this season of change with compassion and clarity.Remember just because it feels different doesn't mean you're losing your child.

In this deeply honest and science-backed episode, Molly explores a topic that often gets misunderstood in the world of personal development: toxic positivity. While optimism, hope, and gratitude are powerful tools for creating a more peaceful relationship with alcohol—and life in general—Molly dives into the real science of why ignoring negative emotions does more harm than good.Learn how suppressing your feelings can lead to stress overload, impaired decision-making, and disconnection, and how true emotional resilience means feeling your emotions, not avoiding them.What You'll Learn:Why toxic positivity isn't helpful (and can actually be harmful)What happens in your brain when you suppress emotionsHow emotional suppression affects your mental and physical healthThe difference between emotional resilience and emotional repressionA powerful, practical method to process emotions with the Four S Belief System:See – Gain awareness of what you're thinking and feeling.Soothe – Offer self-compassion and calm your nervous system.Separate – Distinguish between facts and the story your brain is telling you.Shift – Choose small, believable thoughts that help you move forward.Takeaway Message: You don't have to fake being okay. Feeling your emotions fully and honestly is what allows your brain to process them and grow your resilience. It's not about avoiding discomfort—it's about learning to navigate it with care.Let's Practice Together: Take a deep breath and ask yourself: Where have I been pushing myself to stay positive instead of allowing myself to feel honestly? Your emotional truth is the beginning of your clarity.Resources & Links:Learn more about the Four S Belief System inside Molly's programs: mollywatts.comFree E-book: Alcohol Truths – How Much Is Safe?Connect with Molly on Instagram: @alcoholminimalistSubscribe & Review: If this episode resonated with you, share it with a friend and leave a review on Apple Podcasts or Spotify—it really helps others discover the podcast! ★ Support this podcast ★

Mother's day just passed and I thought this would be the perfect time to talk about something a lot of women deal with, especially after having kids: pelvic floor dysfunction. I invited Dr. Brianne Grogan, Physical Therapist and Pelvic Care Expert, to talk about the intricate relationship between trauma, stress, and pelvic floor health. I loved this conversation with Dr. Bri because she not only delves into practical techniques for pelvic floor release, sharing insights on effective cues for yoga teachers to enhance awareness and how to reconnect with the pelvic floor, but she also emphasizes the importance of understanding the pelvic area as a site of emotional storage and energetic power. Listen in as we explore how:

In today's fast-paced, overstimulated world, kids are absorbing so much. They are seeing us overpack our schedules, rushing from one thing to the next, and are constantly "on." Many of us parents are wondering: how do we help our kids regulate their emotions, connect with their bodies, and stay grounded? I know that I certainly am. That's why I'm so excited to share this conversation with Lauren Chaitoff, founder and chief visionary of Yogi Beans. In this episode of Chick Chat, Lauren and I dive into the benefits of yoga and mindfulness for kids, how parents can begin introducing it at home (even if you've never done yoga yourself!), and why practices like grounding, movement, and breathwork are so essential for emotional regulation. We also talk about how moms and dads can reconnect with their own inner calm and lead by example. Whether you're a parent looking for mindful tools or just curious about where to start, this conversation is full of heart, hope, and helpful tips. Who is Lauren Chaitoff? Lauren Chaitoff is the founder and visionary behind Yogi Beans, a yoga and wellness technology company designed specifically for children. With a background in Pilates and a deep love for movement, Lauren's path shifted after discovering yoga's powerful mind-body-heart connection. Since founding Yogi Beans in 2007, she's created a curriculum that inspires children to feel more grounded, emotionally connected, and authentically themselves. Lauren is a Northwestern University grad, wife, and mama to two “beans” — Vivienne and Juliette. She's passionate about giving kids tools to manage their emotions and move through life with more confidence, compassion, and joy. What Did We Discuss? In this episode, Lauren and I chick-chat about: What made her fall in love with yoga, and how it changed her approach to wellness Why she was drawn to children's yoga long before it became mainstream How yoga helps kids regulate emotions and feel more grounded Easy ways parents can introduce yoga at home (even as beginners!) Her favorite pose or exercise every child should try — and why Tips for making yoga fun and engaging for kids How the principles of grounding and presence translate into real-life tools for children Ways parents can model mindfulness and emotional regulation How adults can reconnect with their inner child through movement and stillness Micro-practices busy parents can do to weave mindfulness into daily life Her one big takeaway about the connection between yoga, parenting, and personal growth One of my favorite parts of this conversation was how approachable Lauren makes all of this feel. You don't need to be a yogi, have a meditation app, or even own a mat to start these practices with your kids. What matters most is showing up with intention, curiosity, and a willingness to grow together. If you're a parent craving more connection, calm, and emotional support (for you and your little ones), I hope this episode inspires you to try something new and discover the beauty of mindfulness — one breath, pose, or giggle at a time. I'm so grateful to Lauren for sharing her heart and wisdom with us today.

In this episode, I sit down with the incredible Dr. Mary Ann Mercer — psychologist, author, and someone I'm proud to call a friend — for a deeply moving conversation about what it means to grieve before the loss even happens. Dr. Mary shares the story of her best friend Willa, who spent the last three years of her life battling a rare form of cancer. As Willa's health slowly declined, Dr. Mary experienced a grief that started long before the final goodbye — one filled with emotional whiplash, conflicting thoughts, and moments of profound connection.Together, we talk about anticipatory grief — how it creeps in while someone is still alive, and how emotionally exhausting it can be to keep showing up day after day for someone you love. Dr. Mary opens up about the guilt she felt when she started wishing for peace, the loneliness Willa experienced as others slowly pulled away, and the quiet power of simply sitting in silence with someone who's suffering. It's not always about fixing things — sometimes it's just about being there.Dr. Mary also shares some of the unexpected moments of beauty in Willa's final years — including the annual “hippie parties” she was known for, and how her legacy continues to ripple outward through the people who loved her most. This conversation reminded me that grief isn't just about endings — it's also about presence, purpose, and honoring the time we do have. If you've ever watched someone fade while trying to hold them close, this one is for you.DR.
