Podcasts about finding balance

What if the reason productivity strategies haven't worked isn't because you're lazy, unmotivated, or “bad at ADHD”—but because your nervous system is stuck in survival mode?In this conversation, I'm joined by ADHD counselor and author Jenna Free, whose approach to ADHD starts with regulation before productivity. Jenna shares why so many ADHDers find themselves trapped in cycles of overwhelm, paralysis, burnout, and all-or-nothing thinking—and how learning to regulate your nervous system can create lasting change. We explore the connection between ADHD, anxiety, fight-or-flight responses, and executive functioning, while challenging some of the common assumptions about what ADHD really is. If you've ever felt exhausted from trying harder and getting nowhere, this episode offers a refreshing perspective on what it takes to move forward.Episode Highlights[0:40] - Meet Jenna Free and why regulation comes before productivity[1:32] - The difference between avoidance and a nervous system stuck in fight-or-flight[4:25] - Why awareness is the first step toward meaningful change[5:59] - The “spinning wheels” analogy and why slowing down helps you move forward[7:18] - Escaping the frantic-crash cycle that keeps ADHDers stuck[12:13] - ADHD, anxiety, OCD, and the role of nervous system dysregulation[13:57] - Jenna's three-layer framework for ADHD regulation[19:37] - How thoughts, beliefs, and self-talk fuel dysregulation[27:59] - All-or-nothing thinking, perfectionism, and finding flexibility[36:16] - Can regulation improve ADHD symptoms and task initiation?[44:27] - What a regulated ADHD life actually looks like[48:47] - Jenna's new book and where to connect with herLinks & ResourcesJenna Free (CCC) is an ADHD counselor who also has ADHD.

Transcript:Da: Freja sad i hjørnet af Freelancer's Home, en hyggelig café med blødt lys og rolig stemning.En: Freja sat in the corner of Freelancer's Home, a cozy café with soft lighting and a calm atmosphere.Da: Hun havde sine bøger, laptop og farverige markører spredt ud over det lille træbord.En: She had her books, laptop, and colorful markers spread across the small wooden table.Da: Udenfor skinnede solen, og sommerens varme bølger kunne mærkes gennem de åbne vinduer.En: Outside, the sun was shining, and the warm waves of summer could be felt through the open windows.Da: Det var en perfekt dag til at være udendørs, men Freja havde vigtigere ting i tankerne.En: It was a perfect day to be outdoors, but Freja had more important things on her mind.Da: Hun bøjede sig frem og læste igen og igen det samme afsnit om arkitekturens grundprincipper.En: She leaned forward, reading the same paragraph about the fundamental principles of architecture over and over again.Da: Tankerne fløj rundt, for hun skulle snart til den store eksamen, der kunne sikre hende en plads på sit drømmestudium.En: Her thoughts were scattered, as she was soon to face the big exam that could secure her a spot in her dream program.Da: Hun ønskede så inderligt at klare det godt, men følte også en stigende uro i maven.En: She so dearly wished to do well, but also felt a growing unease in her stomach.Da: Ind kom Emil, Frejas bedste ven.En: In came Emil, Freja's best friend.Da: Han bar altid et smil på læben og en afslappet holdning, som en brise af frisk luft i enhver stram situation.En: He always wore a smile on his face and had a relaxed demeanor, like a breath of fresh air in any tense situation.Da: Emil stillede sin kaffe ved siden af Freja og kiggede på hendes opslåede bog.En: Emil placed his coffee next to Freja and glanced at her open book.Da: "Lang dag?"En: "Tough day?"Da: spurgte han med et glimt i øjet.En: he asked with a twinkle in his eye.Da: Freja sukkede og smilede svagt.En: Freja sighed and smiled faintly.Da: "Ja, jeg er bekymret for eksamen."En: "Yes, I'm worried about the exam."Da: Emil nikkede og lænede sig tilbage i stolen.En: Emil nodded and leaned back in his chair.Da: "Du gør det godt, Freja.En: "You're doing well, Freja.Da: Men nogle gange skal man også slappe lidt af."En: But sometimes you also need to relax a bit."Da: Hans rolige måde beskrev den modsatte side af Frejas målrettede beslutsomhed.En: His calm manner was the opposite of Freja's determined resolve.Da: Men mens timerne gik, begyndte Freja at miste fokus, fordi Emils lette snak og jokes trak hende væk fra bogen.En: But as the hours passed, Freja began to lose focus because Emil's light chatter and jokes drew her away from the book.Da: Hun vidste, at hun måtte tage en beslutning.En: She knew she had to make a decision.Da: Skulle hun fortsætte med sin strenge studieplan eller tage et skridt tilbage for ikke at brænde helt ud?En: Should she continue with her strict study plan or take a step back to avoid burning out completely?Da: Endelig, efter yderligere en times studier og Emils vedholdende forsøg på at lette stemningen, satte Freja bogen væk og kiggede på Emil.En: Finally, after another hour of studying and Emil's persistent efforts to lighten the mood, Freja put the book away and looked at Emil.Da: "Jeg er virkelig nervøs," sagde hun ærligt.En: "I'm really nervous," she said honestly.Da: "Jeg har brug for at klare mig godt, men jeg ved ikke, hvordan jeg kan slappe af uden at føle dårlig samvittighed."En: "I need to do well, but I don't know how to relax without feeling guilty."Da: Emil tog en dyb indånding.En: Emil took a deep breath.Da: "Det handler om balance.En: "It's about balance.Da: Vi giver det en time til intens fokus, og så tager vi en pause.En: We give it an hour of intense focus, and then we take a break.Da: Det er en aftale?"En: Agreed?"Da: Freja smilede og nikkede langsomt.En: Freja smiled and nodded slowly.Da: "Det kunne jeg godt bruge."En: "I could use that."Da: Med Emils hjælp udviklede de en ny plan.En: With Emil's help, they developed a new plan.Da: Kortere, men mere intense studier samtidig med små pauser til at genoplade.En: Shorter, but more intense study sessions with small breaks to recharge.Da: De gik en kort tur rundt om blokken, og Freja følte sommerbrisen og solens varme på hendes hud.En: They took a short walk around the block, and Freja felt the summer breeze and the warmth of the sun on her skin.Da: Da de kom tilbage til caféen, følte Freja sig lettere tilpas og klar til at dykke tilbage i stoffet.En: When they returned to the café, Freja felt more at ease and ready to dive back into the material.Da: Timer senere, da de pakkede sammen, gik noget op for hende.En: Hours later, as they packed up, something dawned on her.Da: Det var ikke længere kun frygten for eksamen.En: It was no longer just the fear of the exam.Da: Hun havde fundet en måde at tage kontrollen tilbage.En: She had found a way to take back control.Da: "Tak, Emil," sagde hun, mens de gik ud i den stadigt lysende sommeraften.En: "Thank you, Emil," she said as they stepped out into the still-bright summer evening.Da: "Altid, Freja.En: "Always, Freja.Da: Du klarer det fantastisk," svarede han med et glimt.En: You're doing great," he replied with a glint.Da: Freja følte sig bedre rustet til den kommende dag, og ikke bare til at tackle sin eksamen, men til at finde balance i det, hun elskede at gøre.En: Freja felt better prepared for the coming day, not just to tackle her exam, but to find balance in what she loved to do.

This sermon introduces a powerful focus on balance, exploring how it affects your finances, mindset, and relationship with God. Rooted in Matthew 6, it unpacks how financial anxiety, poor stewardship, and lack of discipline can create instability in life. With practical teaching on budgeting, generosity, and trusting God, this message helps you build a strong, balanced foundation. Using clear examples, it shows how small imbalances can lead to bigger struggles over time. If you want financial peace, spiritual growth, and a healthier approach to money, this teaching will help you align your life with God's wisdom and purpose.

Today I want to talk about balance.  Did I go out and get after it last night in honor of the Knicks?  Yes.  Am I ok with it, and am ready to balance myself back out?  Even more of a yes.

This week Clint and I sat down with Jessica Jollie. Jessica is the owner of Yoga Landing in Signal Mountain Tennessee. Jessica by all accounts and reports is one of the best in the region. Take a class from her and you will know her skill. Over thirty years ago Jessica found her way to Yoga due to a snowboarding injury in the high mountains of Ca. Her recovery and practice went from student to teacher to studio owner. Jessica shares her journey with us today and also how yoga has a place for everyone. I have been blessed to practice with Jessica for several years and like many I came to heal my body from injury. What I found was a better balance for my daily living and a fitter healthier body. Jessica calls herself a Yoga Universalist. This means that any form or perspective that awakens clarity, strengthens and heals the body, and energizes the spirit, she supports wholeheartedly. Personally, she connects most with Vinyasa Yoga, Ashtanga Yoga, Hot Elemental, and Yin Yoga. She is also a Phoenix Rising Yoga Therapist and holds a Master's degree in Counseling.

Dr. Simone shares a reflective episode from Copenhagen about enjoying family time while navigating persistent mom guilt. She talks candidly about the tension that can arise with partners, the relief of moments when someone else cares for you (like a hairdresser appointment), and the struggle many mothers face to carve out personal time. She encourages mothers to be bold about claiming me-time, explaining that self-care is essential to restore energy and be able to give to others. Practical, empathetic, and calming, the episode centers on finding balance and permission to prioritize yourself.

"Mit csinálsz?" kérdezte mosolyogva.En: Réka glanced at Ádám. "What are you doing?" she asked with a smile.Hu: Ádám felnézett, először meglepett volt, de aztán magabiztos mosoly ült ki arcára. "Csak egy új szögből nézem a világot."En: Ádám looked up, at first surprised, but then a confident smile settled on his face. "Just looking at the world from a new angle."Hu: Bence nevetett. "Jól áll neked, Ádám!" mondta tapsolva.En: Bence laughed. "It suits you, Ádám!" he said, clapping.Hu: Az emberek a kávézóban mintha még vidámabbak lettek volna.En: The people in the cafe seemed even happier.Hu: A kávézó hangulata inspirálta Ádámot.En: The cafe's atmosphere inspired Ádám.Hu: A rendelkező percekben, a rajzokkal a zsebében, bement az iskolába.En: In the following moments, with drawings in his pocket, he entered the school.Hu: A pünkösdi elragadtatottság nem csak a kávéházat, hanem Ádám lelkét is betöltötte.En: The Pentecostal ecstasy filled not only the café but also Ádám's soul.Hu: Úgy érezte, készen áll a vizsgára.En: He felt ready for the exam.Hu: Ugyanúgy értékelte a tudományt, mint a művészetet.En: He appreciated science just as much as art.Hu: Ahogy beült a vizsgára, tudta, bármi is történjék, a jövőjébe örömmel nézhet.En: As he sat for the exam, he knew that whatever happened, he could look to the future with joy.Hu: Ádám magabiztosan írt, és a tudás mellett a szívét is beletette a válaszokba.En: Ádám wrote confidently, putting his heart into the answers alongside his knowledge.Hu: Miután minden papírt leadott, mosolyogva lépett ki a teremből.En: After submitting all the papers, he walked out of the room with a smile.Hu: Tavaszi szellő csiklandozta arcát, miközben hazafelé sétált.En: The spring breeze tickled his face as he walked home.Hu: Ádám rájött, hogy nem kell választania a család és a saját álmai között.En: Ádám realized that he didn't have to choose between his family and his own dreams.Hu: Mindkettőt követhette, és ez boldogabbá tette, mint valaha is remélte.En: He could follow both, and this made him happier than he ever hoped.

This guide explores releasing the idea of perfect balance, embracing flexibility, and recognizing when you need to shift. True balance means being able to lean into life without losing yourself. The quiet moment is where you notice what is off-kilter and make gentle adjustments before small imbalances become big ones.

In this deeply reflective Mother's Day episode of The Estranged Heart podcast, Kreed explores motherhood not simply as a role, but as an evolving identity - one that changes across the lifespan in ways many women are never emotionally prepared for. From the intensity of early caregiving to the shifting terrain of adolescence, adult independence, estrangement, reconciliation, and everything in between, this conversation examines the often invisible grief that emerges when motherhood changes shape.Together, we explore the emotional complexity of developmental separation, ambiguous relational grief, the hidden challenges of reconciliation, and the ways identity disruption can quietly shape maternal behavior. Most importantly, this episode invites a deeper question: If motherhood is meant to evolve, what does it mean to remain connected to yourself as the role changes?This is a conversation about grief, identity, emotional maturity, and the woman who continues becoming beneath every version of mother she has ever been.Key TakeawaysMotherhood is not a single transformation; it is a lifelong identity evolution.Grief can emerge not only from estrangement, but from healthy developmental transitions and changing family roles.Emotional pain does not automatically make our interpretations accurate or our behaviors relationally helpful.Reconciliation does not always restore emotional ease, certainty, or maternal confidence.Becoming more fully yourself is not abandoning motherhood - it may be one of its most mature invitations.Chapters00:00 The Complexity of Mother's Day06:50 The Evolution of Motherhood10:01 The Invisible Labor of Motherhood12:43 Navigating Developmental Changes16:10 The Emotional Landscape of Estrangement18:53 Reconciliation and Its Challenges22:03 The Impact of Uncertainty24:51 Grief and Its Many Forms27:49 The Journey of Self-Discovery30:46 Finding Balance in Motherhood33:47 The Invitation to Evolve37:09 Grief Support and Moving ForwardResources & SupportFacebook Support Group (facilitated by Kreed) - https://www.facebook.com/groups/estrangedmotherssupportgroupOne-on-One ServicesPrivate coachingConsultingMediation servicesConnect with Kreed:Website: theestrangedheart.comEmail: hello@theestrangedheart.comSupport the work: Buy Me a Coffee (donation platform)Disclaimer: Kreed Revere is not a licensed therapist.

Unexplained infertility. Failed cycles. Constant “what ifs” about plastics, products, and the environments we live in. We're surrounded by headlines about “toxins” and especially worried about how they might affect fertility, but almost no one teaches us how to think clearly about any of it. In this episode, Lisa Schuman, LCSW, talks with Dr. John Warner, a founder of Green Chemistry, about how everyday materials may influence fertility and health, and how to think about risk without spiraling into fear. Dr. Warner shares the personal tragedy that pushed him to re‑invent how chemistry is taught and practiced, and together they explore what realistic, informed choices look like for people in fertility treatment, donor conception, and surrogacy. You'll hear about: How environmental exposures intersect with fertility and overall health The “devastating realization” that changed Dr. Warner's career What Green Chemistry is and why it matters for future parents Why testing chemicals is so complex (and why “no data” ≠ “safe”) How to ask better questions instead of panicking about “toxins” The four pillars of chemistry education and “intellectual ecology” How consumer choices quietly shape what companies create next Why fear itself can become toxic and block clear decision‑making If you're going through IVF, using donor conception, working with a surrogate, or pregnant after infertility, this conversation offers a calmer, clearer way to think about your environment, without chasing perfection or drowning in guilt.

In this episode, we sit down with Country Outdoors podcast host Mary O'Neill Phillips for an honest conversation about balancing family, career, and a life in the outdoors - all while keeping faith at the center of it all. Hosted by Alyssa Hall, this episode feels less like an interview and more like a long-overdue catch-up between friends. Though Alyssa and Mary have known each other for years, life has kept them busy and often out of touch - something many listeners will relate to. Together, they reflect on the realities of juggling what matters most, sharing personal stories, lessons learned, and how they stay grounded through it all. It's a genuine, relatable conversation about priorities, faith, and finding balance in a full life.

Hey Team! Today I'm talking with Jenna Free, a Master's-level Canadian Certified Counselor and ADHD coach, who focuses on polyvagal theory, which is to say, she helps people understand their nervous system. She works specifically with neurodivergent adults to move them out of the "fight, flight, or freeze" responses that make ADHD symptoms feel ten times heavier than they need to be. In our conversation, we're moving past the usual "tips and tricks" to look at the biological hardware of the ADHD brain and, more specifically, on nervous system regulation. We discuss the mechanics of dysregulation, why we often use anxiety as a secondary motor, and how to identify when our bodies have been stuck in survival mode for so long that we've forgotten what "calm" actually feels like. Be sure to check out Jenna's book The Simple Guide to ADHD Regulation: The Secret to Finding Balance, Getting Things Done, and Enjoying Your Life If you'd life to follow along on the show notes page you can find that at HackingYourADHD.com/292 YouTube: https://tinyurl.com/y835cnrk Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/HackingYourADHD This Episode's Top Tips It's important to recognize that dysregulation is a physical state where blood flow moves from the brain to the limbs to prepare for danger. When we are in fight, flight, or freeze, our ADHD symptoms are amplified because our brain's higher-level processing is offline in favor of survival. While it is easy to rely on anxiety and panic to provide the "urgency" needed to start tasks, this can create a "frantic-crash cycle" where we use future resources to survive the present. When we focus on regulation, it can allow us to find a "sweet spot" of motivation that is sustainable rather than explosive. People-pleasing is often a survival strategy intended to keep others regulated so that we feel safe. By recognizing that our safety doesn't actually depend on everyone else liking us, it allows us to stop over-committing and resenting our schedules.

What if the key to thriving in today's fast-paced world has been around for thousands of years? In this episode of The Greatness Machine, Darius Mirshahzadeh connects with ninth-generation doctor of Eastern medicine Dr. Jenelle Kim to explore the ancient principles behind modern wellness, longevity, and true inner balance.

My best friend Randy, a medical doctor, frustrates himself with all the pathologies that we refer to as having, or not. Such as diabetes, depression, or auto immune issues. He says we are all on the spectrum to a degree, the issue is whether you tip over into a clinical level where you need acute treatment. In this show I'm looking at ADHD the same way. I have a daughter finishing grad school in psychology who believes I'm fairly high on the ADHD scale, but I've found constructive ways to manage and function. When a new book came across my desk I decided to take the opportunity to understand ADHD better and moreso, hear ideas on how to function and manage better regardless of where you may fall on the ADHD scale. My guest is Jenna Free. Jenna is a counselor for ADHD with ADHD. She specializes in working with the ADHD brain to get it out of fight-or-flight and into working its best, while honoring neurodivergence and all of our uniqueness. She has a focus on making ADHDers lives more enjoyable while also being more productive.
