Mother's Day can stir up a lot—especially when you're navigating life after divorce. Maybe your ex's voice is still echoing in your head, or your teens are too cool (or too cranky) to make plans. Maybe your kids aren't even with you this year. If any of that sounds familiar, this episode is here to help you mute the noise, return to yourself, and reclaim this day as something sacred and satisfying—no matter what it looks like on the outside. Together, we'll explore how to celebrate yourself without apology, even if no one else is showing up the way you hoped. I'll share what it means to be both realistic and radiant—from managing kids who are resistant or unavailable, to creating a solo tradition that fills your soul (including my own story of picnics, peace, and blooming flowers at the Arboretum). Because Mother's Day isn't about perfection. It's about presence. Whether you're feeling joyful, tender, or somewhere in between, this episode invites you to step into your power, choose your own joy, and design a Mother's Day that honors the incredible mom—and woman—you are.

Sometimes the most powerful shift you can make is simply choosing to show up—messy, overwhelmed, uncertain—and still commit to your own growth. As Dr. Michelle and Bayleigh navigate their own life transitions, they open up with honesty, humor, and heart about what it really takes to maintain mental and emotional wellness during chaotic seasons. Through reflection, grace, and intentionality, they remind us that well-being isn't about perfection—it's about alignment, commitment, and learning to nourish yourself from the inside out, one small change at a time. Key Takeaways: True mental wellness begins with self-awareness and the courage to meet yourself exactly where you are. Small, consistent actions—like hydration, movement, and gratitude—create meaningful long-term change. It's okay to ask for help or say no; boundaries are a form of self-care and self-respect. Transitions are invitations for clarity—use them to reflect, release, and reset your vision. Self-commitment fuels transformation; you can't lead others well if you're not caring for yourself first.   Connect with Dr. Michelle and Bayleigh at: https://smallchangesbigshifts.com hello@smallchangesbigshifts.com https://www.linkedin.com/company/smallchangesbigshifts https://www.facebook.com/SmallChangesBigShifts https://www.instagram.com/smallchangesbigshiftsco   Thanks for listening!

It's a powerful practice of radical self-awareness that can shift your mood, your mindset, and your entire frequency.I'll walk you through what a vibe check really means, why it's essential if you want to live a high-frequency life, and share 5 simple, actionable steps to vibe check yourself anytime you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or low energy.

In this episode, we're exploring the invisible ways boundary issues show up in our everyday routines - especially in how we manage time, energy, and expectations. Most of us think of boundaries as things we set with other people, but what about the quiet, internal boundaries we often ignore? Like the ones that involve being realistic about what we can actually get done, or giving ourselves time to rest, think, and reset? You'll hear a fresh take on how things like over-planning, skipping buffer time, and pushing through exhaustion aren't just bad habits - they're symptoms of boundary blind spots. We'll dig into what's really going on when you feel behind, overwhelmed, or frustrated with yourself—and how small mindset shifts around time and planning can make a big difference in how you feel and function. Three Takeaways 1.    Boundaries aren't just for relationships, they also show up in how you treat your time, your schedule, and your capacity. 2.    There's often a gap between what we expect of ourselves and what's actually humanly possible - and ignoring that gap creates daily stress. Confidence and calm don't come from doing more, they come from creating space for what matters most.     Overloading yourself isn't strength – it's self-abandonment.     Get your FREE Boundaries Ebook here!

gjennom de blomstrende trærne, og fuglene kvitret i takt med den milde vinden.En: The sun shone through the blooming trees, and the birds chirped in time with the gentle breeze.No: Inne i den lille, men koselige stuen til foreldrene deres, samlet familien seg.En: Inside the small but cozy living room of their parents' house, the family gathered.No: Stuen var fylt med duften av nybakt brød og forventningene fra en tid med gjenforening.En: The room was filled with the scent of freshly baked bread and the anticipation of a time of reunion.No: Eirik satt i hjørnet, ved siden av den store bokhyllen som var fylt med barndomsminner.En: Eirik sat in the corner, next to the large bookshelf filled with childhood memories.No: Han så rundt seg, på bildene av Sunniva som smilte fra menyer i viktige aviser, på hennes diplom som hang stolt ved siden av TV-en.En: He looked around at the pictures of Sunniva smiling from menus in important newspapers, at her diploma hanging proudly next to the TV.No: Eirik kjente stinget av sammenligning stikke i brystet.En: Eirik felt a pang of comparison sting in his chest.No: Sunniva kom inn i rommet, og blikket deres møttes kort.En: Sunniva entered the room, and their eyes met briefly.No: Hun er alltid så selvsikker, tenkte Eirik.En: She's always so confident, thought Eirik.No: Han funderte på hvordan han kunne si det som stadig gnagde i ham.En: He pondered how he could express what was constantly gnawing at him.No: Middagen ble servert, og alle begynte å prate.En: Dinner was served, and everyone began to chat.No: Disse familiemiddagene var ofte fylt med latter, men denne gangen kjente Eirik på en voksende tyngde av ting som var usagt.En: These family dinners were often filled with laughter, but this time Eirik felt a growing weight of unspoken things.No: Han visste at det var på tide nå.En: He knew it was time now.No: "Kan jeg snakke med deg, Sunniva?En: "Can I talk to you, Sunniva?"No: " spurte Eirik plutselig.En: Eirik suddenly asked.No: Det ble stille rundt bordet, og alle øyne vendte seg mot ham.En: It went silent around the table, and all eyes turned to him.No: Sunniva rynket pannen, tydelig overrasket, men nikket.En: Sunniva furrowed her brow, clearly surprised, but nodded.No: De flyttet seg til hjørnet av rommet der musikken fra radioen dempet resten av samtalene.En: They moved to the corner of the room where the music from the radio softened the rest of the conversations.No: "Jeg føler noen ganger at ingenting jeg gjør er bra nok," begynte Eirik, stemmen skjelvende, men med en resolutt klang.En: "Sometimes I feel like nothing I do is good enough," Eirik began, his voice shaky but with a resolute tone.No: "Alle snakker alltid om hvor fantastisk du er.En: "Everyone always talks about how amazing you are.No: Jeg føler meg bare som skyggen din.En: I just feel like your shadow."No: "Sunniva så på broren sin med store, runde øyne.En: Sunniva looked at her brother with big, round eyes.No: Hun visste ikke hvordan hun skulle svare med en gang.En: She didn't know how to respond immediately.No: Hun hadde aldri forstått hvor mye hennes suksess hadde påvirket ham negativt.En: She had never understood how much her success had negatively impacted him.No: "Jeg visste ikke, Eirik," sa Sunniva rolig etter en pause, og la hånden på skulderen hans.En: "I didn't know, Eirik," Sunniva said calmly after a pause, placing a hand on his shoulder.No: "Jeg har alltid vært så stolt av deg.En: "I've always been so proud of you.No: Du er så dyktig på dine egne måter.En: You are so talented in your own ways."No: "Ordene hennes traff Eirik som en stikkende, men velkommen, bris av erkjennelse.En: Her words hit Eirik like a stinging, but welcome, breeze of recognition.No: Han så på Sunniva, så alvorlig og sannferdig, og han oppdaget noe nytt i øynene hennes.En: He looked at Sunniva, so serious and truthful, and he discovered something new in her eyes.No: En vilje til å forstå, og et ønske om noe mer fra dem begge.En: A willingness to understand, and a wish for something more from both of them.No: De to søsknene stod der, lenge nok til at lydene fra resten av familien bare var en fjern bakgrunnssus.En: The two siblings stood there long enough for the sounds from the rest of the family to become just a distant background hum.No: "Kan vi starte på nytt?En: "Can we start over?"No: " spurte Sunniva forsiktig.En: Sunniva asked gently.No: Eirik nikket.En: Eirik nodded.No: "Ja, jeg vil det," svarte han, følelsen av lettelse fylte ham.En: "Yes, I want that," he replied, the feeling of relief filling him.No: De delte et varmt øyeblikk, et enkelt, men betydningsfullt øyeblikk.En: They shared a warm moment, a simple yet meaningful moment.No: En klem, en ny begynnelse.En: A hug, a new beginning.No: Fra det punktet visste de begge at ting ville være annerledes.En: From that point, they both knew that things would be different.No: Ikke perfekt, men bedre.En: Not perfect, but better.No: De begge forlot stuen med hjertene litt lettere, og fremtiden åpen foran dem som en vårdag med lovende solskinn.En: They both left the living room with hearts a little lighter, and the future open before them like a spring day with promising sunshine.

hölls.En: The spring sun shone through the björkskogen and created a soft light over the small, peaceful valley where the spiritual retreat was held.Sv: Den svenska landsbygden var blomstrande och fylld av doften av nyutslagna blommor.En: The Swedish countryside was flourishing and filled with the scent of newly bloomed flowers.Sv: Lars kände luften fyllas med en lugnande känsla när han steg ut ur sin bil och såg sig omkring.En: Lars felt the air fill with a calming sensation as he stepped out of his car and looked around.Sv: Han var nervös men beslutsam, här för att hitta den inre fred han saknade efter sin skilsmässa.En: He was nervous but determined, here to find the inner peace he lacked after his divorce.Sv: Astrid, retrets ledare, välkomnade alla med ett varmt leende.En: Astrid, the retreat leader, welcomed everyone with a warm smile.Sv: Hon samlade gruppen och presenterade vad de skulle göra under helgen.En: She gathered the group and introduced what they would do over the weekend.Sv: "Vi är här för att hitta balansen i våra liv," sa hon mjukt.En: "We are here to find balance in our lives," she said softly.Sv: "Låt oss börja med en vandring genom skogen och lyssna på naturens musik."En: "Let us begin with a walk through the forest and listen to the music of nature."Sv: Under vandringen gick Lars bredvid Signe, en kvinna som också kämpade med sina egna demoner.En:

being enough.Sv: Lars lyssnade, och blev påmind om sina egna bekymmer.En: Lars listened and was reminded of his own worries.Sv: De nickade förstående åt varandra.En: They nodded understandingly at each other.Sv: De var olika men i samma båt.En: They were different but in the same boat.Sv: Varje dag började med meditation på en grön äng.En: Each day began with meditation in a green meadow.Sv: Blommorna vajade lätt i vinden och fåglarna sjöng.En: The flowers swayed gently in the wind and the birds sang.Sv: Inledningsvis tyckte Lars att det var svårt att släppa sina tankar.En: Initially, Lars found it difficult to let go of his thoughts.Sv: Minnen från hans tidigare liv flöt upp.En: Memories from his past life surfaced.Sv: Trots sin skepsis försökte han sluka sig i Astrids mjuka röst som guidade dem genom sessionerna.En: Despite his skepticism, he tried to immerse himself in Astrid's gentle voice as she guided them through the sessions.Sv: På kvällarna samlades de i kretsen av lyktor och delade sina upplevelser.En: In the evenings, they gathered in a circle of lanterns and shared their experiences.Sv: Astrid uppmuntrade alla att uttrycka sina känslor.En: Astrid encouraged everyone to express their feelings.Sv: Lars fann det svårt men berikande, och han började sakta öppna upp sig.En: Lars found it difficult but enriching, and he began to slowly open up.Sv: Den sista dagen av retretet kom och det var dags för en djupt guidad meditation.En: The final day of the retreat arrived, and it was time for a deeply guided meditation.Sv: Lars satte sig ner och slöt ögonen.En: Lars sat down and closed his eyes.Sv: Under meditationen kände han hur en våg av känslor stigit upp inom honom.En: During the meditation, he felt a wave of emotions rise within him.Sv: Det var som att en barriär bröts och han äntligen tillät sig att acceptera sorgen och osäkerheten i sitt liv.En: It was as if a barrier was broken and he finally allowed himself to accept the sorrow and uncertainty in his life.Sv: Tårarna rann nerför hans kinder, men det var inte längre av smärta.En: Tears streamed down his cheeks, but it was no longer from pain.Sv: Det var frigörande, en känsla av lättnad och acceptans.En: It was liberating, a feeling of relief and acceptance.Sv: Han insåg att för att gå vidare måste han släppa taget om det förflutna.En: He realized that to move forward, he had to let go of the past.Sv: När retretet närmade sig sitt slut, kändes det som om en tyngd lyfts från hans axlar.En: As the retreat approached its end, it felt as if a weight had been lifted from his shoulders.Sv: Lars kände sig lättare och mer fridfull.En: Lars felt lighter and more peaceful.Sv: Han kunde nu se framåt, redo att möta framtiden med ett öppnare sinne och hjärta.En: He could now look forward, ready to face the future with a more open mind and heart.Sv: När gruppen skildes åt, uttryckte Signe hur hon kände sig starkare efter helgen.En: As the group parted, Signe expressed how she felt stronger after the weekend.Sv: Lars log och lovade sig själv att bära med sig dessa lärdomar.En: Lars smiled and promised himself to carry these lessons with him.Sv: Han lämnade den lilla dalen med ett sinne fyllt av klarhet och en nyfunnen känsla av syfte.En: He left the small valley with a mind filled with clarity and a newfound sense of purpose.Sv: Våren hade inte bara kommit till landskapet utan också till hans själ, beredd att blomstra.En: Spring had not only come to the landscape but also to his soul, ready to blossom.

Are you tired of starting over every Monday? Wondering how to build lasting healthy habits that stick—even when life gets chaotic? Then this episode is for you. This week on Salad with a Side of Fries, host Jenn Trepeck dives into the transformative journey of the Healthy Vibe Tribe and how 12 weeks of shared goals, weekly check-ins, and community support led to lasting change. Healthy Vibe Tribe member, Shannon, joins Jenn to share how she went from chasing the number on the scale to tuning into how she felt—physically, emotionally, and mentally. They talk about staying on track through travel, social events, and everyday chaos, proving that progress—not perfection—is what matters. Tune in to hear how consistency, community, and a shift in mindset can help you transform from the inside out. The Salad With a Side of Fries podcast is hosted by Jenn Trepeck, who discusses wellness and weight loss for real life, clearing up the myths, misinformation, bad science & marketing surrounding our nutrition knowledge and the food industry. Let's dive into wellness and weight loss for real life, including drinking, eating out, and skipping the grocery store. IN THIS EPISODE: (04:20) The creation of the Healthy Vibe Tribe(10:44) Discussion of the commitment level as a Healthy Vibe Tribe member(13:18) Noticing the transformation in healthy habits over 12 weeks(27:20) The Healthy Vibe Tribe principles made all the difference while traveling(33:37) Making the choice about drinking an alcoholic beverage(37:33) Going forward with the learnings from the Healthy Vibe Tribe(44:38) Tips on making life and health changes on your weight loss journeyKEY TAKEAWAYS:Weekly check-ins and shared goals fostered accountability and motivation, especially during busy times. Instead of fixating on the scale, shift your focus to how you feel—physically and emotionally. While tracking numbers offers helpful structure, lasting results come from staying present, consistent, and committed to progress over perfection.Being part of a supportive community and intentionally planning will help you maintain healthier habits during challenging times like vacations and conferences. Scheduling check-ins, packing snacks, and prioritizing wellness, can help you avoid the typical wellness pitfalls of travel.Transformation takes root when healthy decisions become second nature. This shift fosters a sense of empowerment and often inspires those nearby, creating a ripple effect that encourages collective growth. Consistent choices, made with intention, serve as a quiet but powerful example of what's possible when wellness becomes a way of life.QUOTES: (07:40) “Am I an example or a warning? You get to a point where you have to decide that time is important, and I don't want the quality of the subsequent decades of my life to be different because I kept saying, ‘Next Monday is gonna be the time.'” -  Shannon: Healthy Vibe Tribe Member(21:31) “There's something really powerful about the words we use, not just in terms of lost weight, which many of you listeners know, is like nails on a chalkboard to me. We remove it, we release it.” - Jenn Trepeck(32:22) “But the point is that perfection is not required, and bringing the exercise clothes is still progress over where we've been before.”  - Jenn Trepeck(35:04) “When we start to make quality choices, it inherently invites other people around us to do it too, in a way that's not pushy. Our consistency in healthier choices allows the people around us to adapt.” -  Jenn Trepeck(40:19) “Accountability, even if it looks a little bit different, is keeping the things in place that we know helped us get here.” - Jenn TrepeckRESOURCES:Want to Jump Into Round 2 of the Healthy Vibe Tribe?

Episode Highlights Paul introduces a gentle process for resolving emotional wounds that doesn't involve regression therapy Important safety note: For deep trauma or abuse issues, Paul strongly recommends working with a professional therapist Why negative emotions persist: Our unconscious mind is still running old protection programs from our younger self The goal: Teaching our unconscious mind that we have more resources and wisdom now than we did back then The Process Identify what resources you needed back then that you have now Confidence, calmness, curiosity, love, or simply knowing "this too shall pass" Connect with memories when you've felt these positive emotions The Inner Child Healing Exercise Identify when you first felt this negative emotion (often before age 10) Visualize your younger self on a stage in front of you Send the specific resources, emotions, and healing they needed Integrate your younger self with your current self, accessing all your wisdom and resources Additional Support If you're still experiencing negative emotions after trying this process, Paul suggests: Working with a therapist skilled in NLP, timeline therapy, and hypnosis Asking yourself: "What am I doing that I could stop?" or "What am I not doing that I could start?"

Welcome to the first episode of the Dysfunctional Family series, a special segment of The Healing Version podcast. In this episode, I open up with a personal truth: “I used to think I was born into the wrong family, but I've come to realize that God placed me exactly where I was needed—to be a light and start the hard conversations others are too afraid to have.” On this episode, we're diving into two major causes of family dysfunction: poor communication and lack of accountability. I'll talk about why so many families avoid honest conversations, and how fear, assumptions, and silence can create emotional distance and break trust. We'll look at the impact of things like blame-shifting, gaslighting, and refusing to take responsibility—and how these patterns often get passed down from one generation to the next. I'll also share some real-life examples of how these issues show up in everyday family life. Support the Podcast!
