It's time for another Mind Gap Podcast! This week, Doug and Justin explore a provocative scenario involving unexpected family dynamics and how it would likely change the way you view your parents forever. The dorks then move into their main topic - the most emotionally unprepared they've been for a movie or TV show. They break down moments in entertainment history that either delivered a character's unexpected demise, betrayals, endings that didn't feel great, and all the times they were unexpectedly taught grief when they were just trying to enjoy a movie.   Things are wrapped up with another round of the movie clip guessing game, where Doug plays clips from different movies and Justin does his best to guess which films they're from.   Check out our YouTube channel where you can watch our episodes!

Send episode requests hereWe've been told that at a certain age, especially as Black women, our options dry up. That if you're divorced, over 35, a single mom, or plus-sized, you should just take what you can get. But I'm 38, divorced, and I only date men who invest in me—emotionally AND financially.In this episode, I'm breaking down exactly what shifted for me to get here. You'll discover why trying to prove you're "not a gold digger" attracts the bottom of the barrel, what happens when you start asking for everything (even when you can afford it yourself), and why the men who tell you "men won't do that" are just telling you what they won't do.Ready to stop playing small and start receiving what you actually want? It starts with my free training: Attract 3 Commitment Ready Boyfriends in 90 Days. Happening On: Sunday, February 15th, 2026REGISTER HEREOnce you register, you will receive a confirmation email with the link to the free training.What you'll learn:

Serious question. Why does my oven have a lasagna button? Are people out here crushing lasagna at such a high frequency that it earned its own dedicated setting? And more importantly… am I not eating enough lasagna?Then it hits me. I am officially out of passwords. Mentally. Spiritually. Emotionally. It's 2026 and we are still typing characters into tiny boxes like it's 2009. How is this still the system and why has no one saved us yet?And just when you think life couldn't get more dangerous, winter rolls around and suddenly we are propping open kitchen cabinets so pipes don't freeze. All good until you wake up half asleep at 3am, go to the bathroom, and absolutely wreck your chin on an open cabinet door.This episode is a rapid-fire rant about modern inconveniences, outdated systems, and the oddly specific things no one warned us about. Come for the lasagna button confusion. Stay for the password burnout and mild household injuries.

Trauma Bonding at a Societal LevelTrauma bonding at a societal level occurs when entire communities become emotionally attached to ongoing stress, chaos, and threat through repeated cycles of fear and temporary relief. Constant exposure to crisis-driven narratives keeps the nervous system in a heightened state of activation, where cortisol remains elevated and the brain's threat centers dominate decision-making. In this state, people often bond not to peace or truth, but to the very sources of stress that intermittently offer reassurance, identity, or meaning. Over time, this creates emotional dependence on narratives, movements, or media ecosystems that feel familiar and validating—even when they are harmful.Neurologically and physiologically, societal trauma bonding erodes clarity and resilience. The prefrontal cortex becomes less effective, nuance disappears, and group identity replaces independent discernment. Communities begin to mirror trauma responses seen in individuals: rigidity, hypervigilance, emotional reactivity, and fear of separation from the group. Healing begins when individuals restore nervous system regulation, reconnect to local reality, and reclaim rhythm, coherence, and embodied presence. Calm, grounded truth—rather than outrage—becomes the antidote that slowly dissolves trauma bonds and allows cultures to recover stability and compassion. Dr. Fred Clary, founder of Functional Analysis Chiropractic Technique and lifting/life coach/ gym-chalk covered philosopher talks about Community Gaslighting!

Many high-achieving, capable adults don't identify as “traumatized” — yet they feel emotionally drained, disconnected, or stuck in patterns they can't quite explain.In this powerful episode of Mindset Mastery Moments, Dr. Alisa Whyte sits down with Dr. Shahrzad Jalali — clinical psychologist, trauma specialist, founder of Align Remedy, and author of the upcoming book The Fire That Makes Us — to unpack the often-overlooked impact of silent trauma.This conversation moves beyond surface-level mindset work and explores how unresolved trauma quietly shapes identity, performance, relationships, and leadership — even in high-functioning individuals who appear “fine” on the outside.In this episode, you'll learn:What silent trauma is and why it often goes unrecognizedHow trauma becomes a pattern — not just a past eventWhy mindset shifts don't last without nervous system regulationHow people-pleasing, perfectionism, and overachievement can be survival responsesPractical ways to begin reclaiming emotional agency and personal powerDr. Jalali weaves together neuroscience, clinical insight, and lived experience, offering nervous-system-based tools that help listeners move from survival mode into regulation, alignment, and self-authority.If you've ever felt like you're doing all the right things but still feel internally misaligned, this episode gives language to what you've been carrying — and illuminates a clear path forward.

What if an AI could help you organize your abuse evidence, understand your trauma, and save you thousands in legal fees?Aimee Says isn't just another AI tool—it's a specialized digital health platform that understands power and control dynamics, helps you document patterns of abuse, organizes your evidence for court, and keeps your data completely private and encrypted. Whether you're trying to understand what's happening in your marriage, preparing for custody battles, or just need someone to help you see the patterns you can't yet name, this tool could change everything.

Most people lose control because they fuse their emotions with the moment, and in this episode, I break down why that's a problem. Detachment does not mean avoidance or suppression, it means stepping back internally while staying fully present. When I can separate how I feel from what's happening, I gain perspective without losing engagement. This skill lets you think clearly under pressure and act without emotional spillover. It's how you stay calm, sharp, and in control when things get intense. Show Notes: [02:03]#1 Separate observation from participation. [05:52]#2 Treat the moment as data, not a verdict.  [10:56]#3 Anchor to your principles, not to your feelings. [15:17] Recap Next Steps: --- Power Presence is not taught. It is enforced. If you are operating in environments where hesitation costs money, authority, or leverage, the Power Presence Mastermind exists as a controlled setting for discipline, execution, and consequence-based decision-making.

In this Artist Journal solo episode of She's All Over the Place, host Katie Chonacas reflects on psychological isolation—the experience of emotional and social disconnection that can exist even in the presence of others. Inspired by Brené Brown's work on belonging and disconnection, this episode explores how psychological isolation develops, why it can become long-standing, and how it quietly erodes our sense of safety, connection, and self-trust. Katie shares a personal reflection on emotional isolation, social withdrawal, and the loss of belonging, offering language and awareness for an experience many feel but rarely name. This episode is for anyone who has felt: Emotionally disconnected despite being "around people" A loss of belonging or relational safety Socially present but internally isolated Unsure how disconnection became so persistent   Stay Connected with me: https://www.chonacas.com/links/

Send us a textIn a culture obsessed with optimization, control, and staying positive at all costs, emotional numbness has quietly become a survival strategy. In this episode of Evolve Ventures Tech, we sit inside the tension most people avoid, the moments where discomfort, grief, and unprocessed emotion get pushed aside in the name of productivity, resilience, or growth.We challenge the assumption that not feeling is strength and expose the long-term cost of emotional suppression on the body, the nervous system, and the life you are building. This episode holds space for what happens when avoidance looks functional, when “doing well” becomes another way to run, and when emotional signals are ignored until they demand attention.This is not about intensity. It is about honesty, capacity, and what it actually means to stay alive to your own experience in a world that rewards disconnection.Here are the related episodes, each one builds on today's conversation:#453 | What it REALLY Feels Like with High Quality Therapy - https://apple.co/4anaO6d #457 | Polyvagal Theory: The Key to Well-Being - https://apple.co/4bjIu58 Learn more about:

Dave Wiedes, founder of ServingLeaders Ministries, is an internationally renown expert in leadership and relational mediation. Dave asserts that spiritual maturity and emotional maturity are inextricably linked, and that adeptness in both categories is necessary to steward both personal relationships and our communities as a whole. Dave's theory involves the idea that we all have a "ruling passion" that tends to undermine God's Lordship in our life, and we must both identify and subvert that ruling passion with the love of God with all our mind, heart, body and soul. Learn more about Dave's ministry at his website https://www.davewiedis.com/Order his renown book, "The Spiritually Healthy Leader", here.SUPPORT His Heartbeat through Crown of Beauty Internationalhttps://www.crownofbeautyinternational.com/donateCONNECT with His Heartbeat and Crown of Beauty InternationalWebsite// Facebook//InstagramEmail: crownofbeautyinternational@gmail.comConnect with Sue Corl's Instagram//Facebook// WebsitePurchase Sue's Transformational Bible Studies and Devotionals on Amazon!Sue Corl's best-selling books: Crown of Beauty Bible Study, Broken But UndefeatedCrown of Beauty International: EMPOWERING WOMEN AROUND THE WORLD WITH GOD'S TRUTH!

This episode emphasizes that kids grow emotionally strong through five key needs: healthy boredom that creates space for creativity and self-direction, agency that helps them feel capable and in control within boundaries, opportunities to experience discomfort so they learn they can handle hard feelings, fortitude built by sticking with challenges over time, and parents who trust their own instincts rather than outsourcing confidence to overwhelming outside influences. Together, these practices help children develop resilience by facing difficulties with steady support instead of avoidance or overprotection. . . . . . .  Sign up to receive the⁠ bi-⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠monthly newsletter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ to keep up to date with where David and Sissy are speaking, where they are taco'ing, PLUS conversation starters for you and your family to share!

There's a strange shift happening in how we talk about emotions.On the surface, it sounds healthy. Emotionally intelligent. Even enlightened.But beneath the polished language is something far more unsettling.Words that were meant to heal are now being weaponized, used to confuse, divide, and shut people down. Therapy-speak has become social currency. Emotional intelligence has turned into a performance. And everyday disagreements are increasingly framed as abuse.When did self-awareness become a competition?When did healing language turn into a way to win arguments?And what happens when normal human conflict gets pathologized?This video explores how our emotional vocabulary is changing and what it's costing us.

On this episode of It's The Bottom Line that Matters, hosts Jennifer Glass, Daniel McCraine, and Patricia Reszetylo dive deep into the art and strategy of vetting business opportunities—without letting emotions cloud your judgment. From personal stories of jumping too quickly into deals to considering the hidden costs, alignment, and the people behind the opportunity, the conversation covers essential criteria every entrepreneur should consider before saying yes (or no).Explore how evaluating business opportunities isn't just about finances and fit, but also about the impact on your overall freedom, business trajectory, and long-term success. Whether you're looking at new partnerships, expanding your services, or considering a startup, this episode provides practical insights on asking the right questions, recognizing red flags, and making decisions that move your business forward.Tune in to hear real-world experiences, thoughtful debate, and expert advice—all aimed to help you make smarter decisions for your bottom line.Listen now and learn how to vet business opportunities with strategy, discernment, and confidence.About the hosts:Jennifer Glass sets the tone for the "It's The Bottom Line That Matters" podcast, guiding listeners through the nuances of making business decisions with strategy and clarity. Jennifer's journey reflects someone who is not afraid to leap into new opportunities, even if it means stepping outside her comfort zone. She credits her willingness to join coaching groups and mastermind programs with shaping her network, career, and ultimately bringing together the podcast co-hosts. Through her experiences—whether purchasing a mastermind or integrating services that align with her business—Jennifer emphasizes the importance of thinking strategically, paying attention to connections, and always considering if an opportunity fits her vision of freedom.Daniel McCraine is a consultant with a flair for evaluating business opportunities, sometimes jumping quickly, as with his story about acquiring a robocalling company. He candidly discusses the lessons learned from opportunities that didn't pan out, stressing the importance of alignment, resources, and strategic fit. Daniel's openness to new ventures, even when they fit “hand in glove,” is balanced by his wisdom to walk away when things just aren't right. He brings a practical lens, reminding listeners that sometimes saying “no” to even good opportunities is part of being a successful entrepreneur.Patricia Reszetylo brings a reflective and experiential approach to business growth. She shares how joining a coaching consortium challenged her on multiple levels and, despite not being fully prepared for the path, she views the experience as a stepping stone—one that led to meaningful relationships and new career directions. Patricia focuses on the people behind business opportunities, recognizing that the nature of collaboration and partnership can make or break ventures. Her insights encourage listeners to consider not just the business models but also the personalities and teams involved.Together, Jennifer Glass, Daniel McCraine, and Patricia Reszetylo use their personal stories and hard-earned lessons to help others make wise choices when vetting business opportunities. Their shared message: think strategically, evaluate deeply, and surround yourself with the right people for success.Keywords: business opportunities, vetting opportunities, emotional decision making, business expansion, hiring decisions, business acquisitions, marketing tools, business alignment, startup challenges, resource allocation, opportunity cost, evaluating opportunities, financial investment, customer base, partnerships, joint ventures, mastermind groups, coaching consortium, product expansion, review management, business growth, risk management, strategic decision making, saying no, opportunity evaluation criteria, relationship with partners, business trajectory

Some books are incredible experiences.They challenge us.They wreck us emotionally.They leave a permanent mark.And then… once is enough.In this episode of Fantasy for the Ages, Jim and Zach talk about fantasy, science fiction, and horror books they're genuinely glad they read, but have absolutely no desire to ever revisit. Not because they're bad. Not because they failed. But because they succeeded too well.We discuss:• Emotionally devastating reads• Intellectually exhausting masterpieces• Surprise heavyweights that hit harder than expected• Horror novels that did their job too well• Why rereadability is NOT the same thing as qualityThis is a reflective, conversation-driven episode about how we read, why we read, and how our relationship with books changes over time.

We live in the dark ages when it comes to emotion. We have been taught to do things like suppress, deny, ignore, numb out to and bulldoze through our emotion. So, it isn't a surprise that most people have no idea what is going on with themselves emotionally. Here is an exercise which will help with this.

When we're taught that "love" is conditional on outside approval, when we're taught to fear authority rather than stand in our personal power, when we're expected to provide unwavering loyalty and praise, even at our own expense—we come into adulthood deeply emotionally debilitated. Emotionally immature parents and caregivers leave lasting wounds on their children—a fear of rejection and abandonment, fawning and people pleasing, a lack of boundaries and sense of agency, trouble with relationships and attachment, and maybe worst of all, a deep confusion about what love is. In this episode, associate counselor Taylor Pearl joins me to get into emotionally immature parents—the core traits, the impact, and the healing we need.Want to work with Remy?

For Woven client, Abby, the experience of cycle charting provided far more insight than simple family planning. It opened up a whole new world of discovery as she recognized the role her reproductive hormones played in her emotional state and creative potential. After charting her cycles with the Creighton Model System, she began working with these natural rhythms instead of against them and her creative and personal endeavors came alive. As a professional dancer and athlete, she used to berate herself for having needs and strengths that morphed throughout her cycle. Now, she changed her perspective to honor them. I'm excited for you to hear more from Abby herself in this episode. Enjoy!NOTE: This episode is appropriate for all audiences.GUEST BIO: Abby is a Jesus follower and professional dancer. She serves as the Artistic Director of a Christian ballet company in Kansas City, Dramatic Truth Ballet Theatre. OTHER HELPFUL EPISODES:Ep. 28: When your body feels brokenEp. 134: Realistic Cycle Syncing for Every Woman, with Megan FallerSend us a textSupport the showOther great ways to connect with Woven Natural Fertility Care: Learn the Creighton Model System with us!

Send us a textIn this week's episode of the Fragmented to Whole Podcast, I'm sharing a powerful realization from my own recovery journey: the pattern of emotionally unavailable partners wasn't just about who I was choosing, it was about my own emotional availability.For years, I believed I was unlucky in love. Through ACA recovery and a deep relationship inventory, I discovered how my nervous system, conditioning, and avoidance of emotions were shaping my relationships far more than I realized.Some of the talking points I go over in this episode include:Why attracting emotionally unavailable partners is often a sign of emotional unavailability within yourself.How ACA Step Four and the concept of causes and conditions revealed my relationship patterns.The role of emotional avoidance, numbing, and codependence in romantic dynamics.How emotions like resentment are signals, not verdicts, and what they're really telling you.Why boundaries are about clarity and self-responsibility, not control.If you want healthier, more secure relationships, the work doesn't start with finding better partners. It starts with becoming emotionally available to yourself. Learning to feel, listen, speak honestly, and set boundaries is where real change happens.Relationship inventory categories:PersonWhat I expectedWhat I gotMy dependent behaviorHow relationship endedAdditional categories I tracked:Who was I in love with?Who was I in relationship wth where we both knew “we're boyfriend and girlfriend?”Which relationships included massive substance use?Which relationships included infidelity with either of us?Which ones were friends with benefits?Who did I break up with and who broke up with me?Be sure to tune in to all the episodes for practical tools, recovery insights, and real-life examples of what it means to live a more whole life.Thank you for listening!

Send us a textSometimes when we see God blessing someone, we can get the wrong idea. We start to think they must be flawless. Untouchable. Spiritually elite. Almost superhuman.Doctrinally, we know better. We know everyone has sinned. We know every believer has weaknesses. But practically? Emotionally? We sometimes forget that.And if there's any place in Scripture that reminds us how blessing and brokenness can coexist in the same person, it's the books of 1 and 2 Samuel. And if there's one chapter that puts both truths side by side — God's blessing and human imperfection — it's 2 Samuel chapter 5.Support the showFollow and Support All my Creative endeavours on Patreon.

If you've ever been honest, vulnerable, and still watched her lose interest, this will finally make it make sense.

Every relationship should have stopping points when you feel yourself slipping away. Emotional abuse operates as a slow drip-feeding of toxic behaviors that gradually erode boundaries.

In this heartfelt and eye-opening episode, Rhonda sits down with therapist and author Oona Metz to talk about the emotional journey of divorce — and how to move through it with clarity and compassion. Oona shares her five-phase model for navigating divorce grief, built from decades of work with women in group therapy settings. Whether you're newly separated or deep in the healing process, this conversation will help you name what you're feeling, understand what's normal, and take the next right step with confidence. In This Episode, You'll Learn: Why heartbreak is the starting point of every divorce journey — even if you initiated it What it really means to "feel it to heal it" (and why it's not optional) The difference between therapy groups and coaching groups — and why facilitation skills matter How to move from grief to growth in Oona's 5-phase model: Heartbreak Emotional Rollercoaster Mending Letting Go Moving On How group support reduces isolation and accelerates emotional healing

What if the biggest struggle your child faces isn't motivation at all, but a hidden set of brain-based skills that help them start tasks, stay organized, manage time, regulate emotions, and follow through? These are executive function skills  and for kids with ADHD, they can feel nearly impossible to access. In this episode of The Soaring Child Podcast, Dana Kay welcomes executive function expert Hannah Bookbinder, a licensed social worker and educator with almost 30 years of experience helping ADHD kids build these skills in practical, meaningful ways. Hannah explains what executive function really is, how ADHD derails it, and why even the brightest, most capable kids often feel defeated by daily routines. Together, Dana and Hannah break down simple, real-world strategies families can begin using right away,  from training time awareness, to using visual cues, to building routines that actually stick. Hannah also shares the story behind her new book and the MyToad App, a tool designed to teach time management, organization, accountability, and focus in one supportive space. If your child struggles with getting started, staying organized, remembering steps, or managing overwhelm, this conversation will leave you feeling understood, encouraged, and equipped with practical tools to help your child thrive.

Ever feel like you're fighting battles that aren't truly yours? You probably are. Emunah Love just explained in Get Yourself Optimized that most of us carry cellular imprints from ancestors, past lives, and childhood trauma that create invisible ceilings—and we don't even know they're there. Traditional therapy helps you manage these patterns. Emunah clears them at the root. Her journey started with profound trauma. Father was killed by the police at age 8. Emotionally unavailable mother. A world that felt fundamentally unsafe. But she had this unwavering faith that kept her searching for "more." During a trip to Israel, she met a stranger named Emunah (Hebrew for "faith"). Her body lit up like firecrackers. She instantly knew: That's my real name. That's who I am. Fast forward 30 years of healing work, and she's now channeling high-vibration beings to help leaders transmute energetic blocks in single sessions. Her clients report shifts that years of traditional approaches couldn't touch. She intentionally creates outcomes BEFORE they happen. Before traveling, she visualizes smooth flights, amazing conversations, and perfect timing. Before seeing family, she surrounds everyone in love and sees a joyful connection. Then she shows up fully present to experience what her intention created. It works. Every. Single. Time. If you're ready to see what's been running in the background and finally break free, this episode is essential. Listen now!
