At the beginning of the year, affirmations are everywhere. But if you have ever felt frustrated, tense, or discouraged while trying to use affirmations, this episode explains why. In Episode 446, Laura shares why affirmations that are not believable often create internal pushback, self-judgment, and cognitive dissonance, and why this is not a personal failure. You will learn how the brain responds to thoughts that feel untrue, how glimmers signal safety to the nervous system, and how to choose words that gently move you forward in healing, relationships, business, and lifestyle change. This episode offers a realistic and compassionate approach to mindset work that works with your brain instead of against it.   Let's Connect!

After three decades working to deliver easy, fast and cost-effective patient experiences through technology, Ryan Howells is more optimistic about the future than he's ever been before.At a time when healthcare has been at the center of polarizing and partisan politics, Ryan is focused on an area foundational to digital health that he says draws consensus across party lines: data exchange and interoperability. Freely moving data can unlock innovation in technology, payment models, and regulation to make healthcare work better for everyone, and Ryan is extremely encouraged by the openness to ideas and volume of activity he's seeing from the second Trump Administration in these areas.As Principal at Leavitt Partners since 2015, Ryan collaborates with the private sector, the White House, Congress, HHS, and the VHA to improve health care nationwide. For the past ten years, he has also led the CARIN Alliance, a bi-partisan, multi-sector alliance uniting industry leaders to advance the adoption of consumer-directed exchange across the U.S.In January 2023, Ryan joined Keith Figlioli on the podcast to discuss the myriad of new possibilities emerging in healthcare as a result of better access to data. In this episode, he recounts the progress and obstacles since that conversation, but more importantly, helps unpack the flurry of new activity.Topics Ryan and Keith covered include:ACCESS & TEMPO. These are the latest examples of two new government programs that Ryan believes will remove barriers to innovation. ACCESS is a CMS initiative that now makes it possible for technology companies to bill Medicare directly for digital health services – and get paid only when patients achieve specific, measurable clinical outcomes. Ryan explains how ACCESS is a breakthrough for transparency and has the potential to change contracting for digital health vendors as health system may now ask to share risk. TEMPO is a program from the FDA that complements ACCESS by allowing participating companies to bypass traditional device clearance processes through “enforcement discretion,” provided they share real time data with the FDA. Ryan explains how this oversight lowers cost and complexity for startups and accelerates the path to market for new digital health solutions.Removing administrative roadblocks. In early 2025, Ryan's team at Leavitt Partners published a paper titled, “Kill the Clipboard” that offered recommendations to cut administrative costs, lower the burden on consumers and providers, and modernize the health care data exchange ecosystem. Ryan discussed recommendations like the need for stronger enforcement of information blocking rules and suggestions for the government to change its certification program to focus on APIs, versus functionality of EHRs. He explained how these things would allow health systems to control their own data, build cloud-based workflows, and integrate with payers and innovative companies more easily.Linchpins for data liquidity. Ryan believes that achieving true data liquidity in healthcare requires three foundational elements: a cloud-based data store, an API endpoint, and robust digital identity credentials. With these in place, he says organizations can exchange data securely and efficiently, supporting everything from public health to quality measurement and pharmacy exchange. He says these are the linchpins to finally achieve the data liquidity needed for innovation, interoperability, and improved patient outcomes.To hear Ryan and Keith discuss these topics and more, listen to this episode of Healthcare is Hard: A Podcast for

Learn to notice and appreciate the small moments of joy, safety, and connection that bring light to your life. We'll explore how these “glimmers” can help regulate your nervous system and build resilience.

It's party time - your favourite threesome have dressed up (sort of!) and are here to celebrate another year of The Skies We're Under, making it through and remembering all the best bits, and filtering it so we forget all the worst bits! We reflect on the challenges that the systems we navigate create, the way that we're forced into ‘fight mode' armed with paperwork and legal references. Or, on the other hand, feeling the need to be overly kind to protect our children and young people. This is an episode full of wit and wisdom, about not letting fear rob you of joy, and looking for the glimmers amongst the triggers.  The charity Lucy recommends is Jumbulance.

This conversation revolves around the nervous system and its impact on the way that we connect. Dr. Alexandra is joined by Deb Dana, the leading translator of Dr. Stephen Porges' scientific work on Polyvagal Theory to the public and mental health professionals. As just one example of her huge impact, a term she coined, glimmers, has gone viral on TikTok. You'll hear Deb take us through Polyvagal Theory, explaining the three principles of neuroception, hierarchy of response, and coregulation. You'll learn about the states our nervous systems go between - how those states feel and the types of thoughts and sensations that go alongside each state. You will learn that our ability to connect with the people around us is dictated by our biology. It's not cognitive. And it's certainly not random.  Through the lens of Polyvagal Theory, helping our nervous systems and the nervous systems around us feel safe becomes the goal, and you'll learn how that perspective has shaped Deb Dana's life and how it can shift how you approach your relationships, as well. And of course, you'll hear about glimmers, including how to integrate a simple glimmer practice into your routine, in order to further help the nervous system feel safe and primed for connection, curiosity, and creativity.Resources worth mentioning from the episode:Read Deb Dana's “A Beginner's Guide to Polyvagal Theory”: https://dralexandrasolomon.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/Beginners-Guide-Presentations-1.pdfLearn more about Deb Dana and her work: https://www.rhythmofregulation.com/Anchored: How to Befriend Your Nervous System Using Polyvagal Theory by Deb Dana: https://bookshop.org/p/books/anchored-how-to-befriend-your-nervous-system-using-polyvagal-theory-deb-dana-lcsw/2dcb315349927ae6Continue the conversation with Dr. Alexandra Solomon:Ask a question!

The start of high school was a major leap for my daughter with special needs, magnified by her transition from a charter school. We both faced heightened anxieties about fitting in and managing sensory challenges. Our preparation included school visits and crafting a mental touchstone for her: to look for glimmers of light amongst potential darkness, akin to stars in a big, open night sky. If you're navigating your own tough transitions, remember that seeking glimmers can be a powerful tool. Whether it's finding brief moments of support from friends, appreciating a compliment, or small personal victories, these glimmers can help guide you through.

History isn't always something you study from a distance. Sometimes, you find yourself in the middle of it—shaped by the events, people, and unexpected turns that unfold around you. Those moments influence destiny, and over time, they become the foundation for how you see and practice your work.In this conversation with Craig Mitchell, we trace those threads through his unexpected entry into Chinese medicine during the HIV/AIDS crisis, the formative years at ACTCM, and the serendipitous encounters that led him to Taiwan and the translation of the Shang Han Lun. His path weaves together scholarship, clinical practice, and the kinds of opportunities that appear when you're willing to say yes.Listen into this discussion as we explore the realities of practicing during a public health crisis, surprising opportunities that arose when pursuing medicine in Taiwan, the challenges and losses inherent in the process of translation, and why flexibility in clinical thinking is essential for treating real people in the real world.

Ops Quickies – we're back with another snackable episode.

In today's episode of Channel Your Genius, I'm joined by the brilliant and refreshingly real Elizabeth Power,  founder of the Trauma Informed Academy, intuitive translator, and longtime infiltrator of the systems that pathologize our pain. If you've ever felt like your emotions were “too much,” or wondered why it's so hard to focus, cope, or make a decision when life gets overwhelming… this conversation is for you. Elizabeth unpacks the difference between real dysfunction and natural trauma responses, and offers a powerful, practical path to reclaiming your emotional wholeness without shame, stigma, or spiraling. With decades of experience consulting for psychiatric hospitals, corporations, and government orgs, she lays out exactly what it takes to move from trauma reaction to emotional resilience. From Swiss cheese development to “trauma Olympics,” from invisible disabilities to the power of glimmers, this episode is full of wisdom, humor, and radical truth.

How to expand your capacity and build resilience without bypassing reality 00:17:30 – We're not broken Why most emotional struggles aren't disorders — they're unfinished development 00:20:18 – The myth of the bad brain Rethinking diagnoses through trauma, epigenetics, and neuroplasticity 00:22:00 – Barking like a dog A powerful story of symbolic communication and misunderstood behavior 00:26:00 – Healing at the foundation Why emotional intelligence skills and trauma recovery go hand in hand Guest Bio: Intuitive.

Authorities were still searching for survivors of the deadly July 4 floods in Central Texas when some Democrats started asking whether President Donald Trump's cuts at the National Weather Service exacerbated the disaster. Republicans, including Texas Senator Ted Cruz, accused those Democrats of “partisan finger-pointing.” How early is too early to talk about accountability? And is a nuanced policy conversation to prevent future tragedies possible in our political climate? Democratic strategist Rebecca Pearcey joins on the left, Republican strategist Mike Dubke joins on the right, and host David Greene holds down the center. Five years after the pandemic, American kids are still struggling in reading and math. Glimmers of hope are shining in red states like Louisiana, Alabama, and Mississippi. What are those states doing right? And are both parties too distracted by the culture war to focus on improving public education?Elon Musk threatened to start a third party if Trump passed his “Big Beautiful Bill.” The tech billionaire launched that party on X this week, saying he wants to represent the “80%” of Americans “in the middle.” Is anyone on the left or the right taking him seriously? Or is this just the latest development in his very-public spat with the president?

On this episode of The Marriage Life Coach Podcast, I'm joined by a brilliant coach and nervous system educator Sarah Hall, whose compassionate approach to stress and productivity has helped so many women feel more calm, clear, and in control. I am proud to say she is also a former client of mine and so delighted to share her wisdom with you!  In this episode Sarah shares some of her favorite takeaways from our private life coaching together. And we talk about the transformative power of life coaching, particularly in managing stress and integrating personal and professional lives.  Sarah introduces the concept of an intentional stress mindset—a way of working with your nervous system, instead of against it. We explore how our stress responses are often shaped by patterns we don't even realize we're in, and how simple shifts in awareness and preparation can dramatically change our experience. You'll hear us talk about the three core nervous system states—mobilized, shut down, and safe—and how to recognize which one you're in. Sarah also shares how to access what she calls “glimmers,” or moments of calm and connection that help support your body and mind even in high-pressure seasons. This conversation is full of insight, but also deeply grounding. It offers a new lens for understanding your stress—not as something to avoid, but something to understand, and eventually, support. Listen in to learn more about: The three nervous system states: safety, mobilization, and shutdown Four intentional stress mindsets and how they reframe your relationship with pressure How preparation supports your nervous system before overwhelm sets in What “glimmers” are and how to identify them in everyday life Why regulating stress starts with tuning in, not powering through The difference between avoiding stress and integrating it Highlights -   00:00 Introduction to Life Coaching and Stress Management 02:01 Integration of Personal and Professional Life 06:50 The Power of Guided Meditations 10:41 Building Confidence and Following Nudges 12:41 Navigating Life's Challenges 18:36 The Importance of Resilience 22:52 Exploring Time Hacking and Productivity 23:51 Understanding the Role of the Mind in Time Management 34:15 Recognizing Gains in Relationships 35:12 Intentional Stress Mindset 36:12 Understanding Stress Cycles 38:35 Mindset for Managing Stress 40:46 Normalizing Dysregulation 42:19 Identifying Nervous System States 47:19 Supporting and Regulating Yourself 49:56 Proactive Nervous System Support 54:09 Glimmers and Micro Moments 57:42 Following Your Nudges

This marks the third installment of our discussion, and for those who missed the previous episodes, I highly encourage listening to them for foundational insights that set the stage for our current exploration. We kick off the episode by discussing the simplicity yet profound impact of the glimmer practice. Deb outlines a straightforward three-step approach: See, Stop, Appreciate. The 'See' encourages us to recognize a glimmer moment in our lives, which could be as simple as witnessing a beautiful rainbow or noticing the soothing sound of birds. I share my own recent experience with a glimmer, highlighting how these moments resonate deeply within our bodies and minds, igniting feelings of joy and wonder. The next step, 'Stop,' prompts us to pause and acknowledge these glimmers instead of passing by; we often forget to appreciate the beauty around us. Deb emphasizes the importance of letting these glimmer moments fill us for just a few seconds, enriching our daily experiences. Following this appreciation, we delve into the 'Appreciate' stage, which encourages marking these moments in various ways, such as journaling or sharing them with a 'glimmer buddy.' This sharing cultivates connections with others, reinforcing the joy and beauty found in these little sparks of life. #Anxiety #NervousSystemRegulation #PolyvagalTheory #Glimmers #Mindfulness #SelfCare #MentalHealth #Resilience #Wellbeing #Connection #Community #DebDana #Journaling #EmbodiedExperience #StressManagement #EmotionalRegulation #Gratitude #Meditation #GlimmerPractice #ACP #GinaRyan #AnxietyCoachesPodcast Learn more about your ad choices.

Chapters 0:43 Welcome Back to the Podcast 2:01 Finding Calm Amidst Anxiety 5:18 Organizing Energy for Regulation 8:15 The Power of Micro Moments 10:59 Discovering Glimmers in Life 13:37 Understanding Glimmers and Challenges 15:34 Building a Practice Around Glimmers 16:54 Reflections and Goodbyes Summary In this episode, I continue my enlightening conversation with Deb Dana, a well-respected expert on the polyvagal theory and its practical applications in managing anxiety and nervous system regulation. Building upon our previous discussion, we delve deeper into the profound understanding that our nervous systems inherently seek regulation and safety. Deb passionately emphasizes that understanding our biology and its connection to anxiety can alleviate feelings of self-blame during moments of distress—it's not about being broken, but rather recognizing the natural responses of our body. We explore effective and approachable strategies for moving from states of high anxiety or stress back to a place of calm. Deb presents a compelling perspective that our nervous systems are knowledgeable and capable of guiding us back to balance, provided we are willing to partner with them rather than fight against their natural impulses. We discuss practical steps that individuals can take to channel overwhelming energy in positive, constructive ways. Through gentle shaping and organizing of this energy, Deb highlights the importance of viewing anxiety not as a debilitating condition, but as a natural signal that calls for attention and self-care. Throughout our conversation, we underline the significance of personalized practices in regulating our nervous systems, which may include movement, music, or even spending time in nature. The concept of a personal "menu" of calming strategies is introduced, encouraging listeners to discover what resonates with their unique systems, as there is no one-size-fits-all approach to self-care. Deb underscores the vital role of "micro moments". #anxiety #nervoussystem #regulation #polyvagaltheory #glimmers #mentalhealth #selfcare #mindfulness #healing #podcast #anxietyrelief #stressmanagement #emotionalregulation #wellbeing #mentalwellness #traumainformed #resilience #selfregulation #innerpeace #neuroscience #copingskills #mindbodyconnection #personaldevelopment #healthpodcast #podcastinterview Learn more about your ad choices.

Chapters 0:42 Welcome to the Podcast 1:58 Exploring Glimmer's Journal 8:04 Understanding Polyvagal Theory 12:13 The Nervous System Explained 15:38 Co-Regulation and Connection 17:14 Conclusion and Next Steps Summary In this episode of the Anxiety Coaches Podcast, host Gina Ryan welcomes special guest Deb Dana, a licensed clinical social worker, clinician, consultant, and leading expert on complex trauma, who specializes in Polyvagal Theory. Deb Dana is not only a respected author of several influential books, including "Polyvagal Prompts" and "Polyvagal Exercises for Safety and Connection," but she is also a co-editor of "Clinical Applications of the Polyvagal Theory" with Dr. Stephen Porges. The discussion centers around her new book, "Glimmer's Journal," which encourages readers to reflect on the small moments that foster joy, safety, and connection—core themes that resonate deeply with the podcast's mission. Gina dives straight into Deb's journey, highlighting how she encountered Dr. Porges' work and realized the vital role the body and nervous system play in psychotherapy. Deb recounts the pivotal moment when she first read Dr. Porges' book, likening it to finding a missing piece of the puzzle in her understanding of the human experience. She shares how her initial outreach led to a collaborative workshop with Dr. Porges, which opened the door for her to incorporate Polyvagal Theory into clinical practice and ultimately inspired the tools and frameworks she has developed. The conversation explores key concepts of Polyvagal Theory, particularly the significance of safety and the role of the nervous system in our daily lives. Deb explains the concept of neuroception, describing how our nervous systems constantly assess safety and danger based on both internal cues—such as physical sensations and emotional states—and external cues from our environment and interactions with others. She emphasizes that an understanding of these dynamics can empower individuals to discern their feelings of anxiety and recognize them as adaptive survival responses rather than indications of personal failure. #mentalwellness #selfcare #wellbeing #emotionalhealth #innerpeace #healing #resilience #mindbodyconnection #polyvagalinformed #polyvagalpractice #panicattacks #overwhelm #copingskills #ACP #AnxietyCoachesPodcast #GinaRyan Learn more about your ad choices.

Chapters 0:42 Welcome to the Podcast 1:58 Exploring Glimmer's Journal 8:04 Understanding Polyvagal Theory 12:13 The Nervous System Explained 15:38 Co-Regulation and Connection 17:14 Conclusion and Next Steps Summary In this episode of the Anxiety Coaches Podcast, host Gina Ryan welcomes special guest Deb Dana, a licensed clinical social worker, clinician, consultant, and leading expert on complex trauma, who specializes in Polyvagal Theory. Deb Dana is not only a respected author of several influential books, including "Polyvagal Prompts" and "Polyvagal Exercises for Safety and Connection," but she is also a co-editor of "Clinical Applications of the Polyvagal Theory" with Dr. Stephen Porges. The discussion centers around her new book, "Glimmer's Journal," which encourages readers to reflect on the small moments that foster joy, safety, and connection—core themes that resonate deeply with the podcast's mission. Gina dives straight into Deb's journey, highlighting how she encountered Dr. Porges' work and realized the vital role the body and nervous system play in psychotherapy. Deb recounts the pivotal moment when she first read Dr. Porges' book, likening it to finding a missing piece of the puzzle in her understanding of the human experience. She shares how her initial outreach led to a collaborative workshop with Dr. Porges, which opened the door for her to incorporate Polyvagal Theory into clinical practice and ultimately inspired the tools and frameworks she has developed. The conversation explores key concepts of Polyvagal Theory, particularly the significance of safety and the role of the nervous system in our daily lives. Deb explains the concept of neuroception, describing how our nervous systems constantly assess safety and danger based on both internal cues—such as physical sensations and emotional states—and external cues from our environment and interactions with others. She emphasizes that an understanding of these dynamics can empower individuals to discern their feelings of anxiety and recognize them as adaptive survival responses rather than indications of personal failure. #mentalwellness #selfcare #wellbeing #emotionalhealth #innerpeace #healing #resilience #mindbodyconnection #polyvagalinformed #polyvagalpractice #panicattacks #overwhelm #copingskills #ACP #AnxietyCoachesPodcast #GinaRyan Learn more about your ad choices.

In today's episode we are spending time focusing on when it goes well. As therapists we look for these 'glimmers' as a way to retrain the brain and body to focus on progress, not just the problem. It's common for couples to get bogged down by what doesn't go well. This is the brain's way to keep you safe and protected but it also makes it hard to let progress take hold. Join Laurie and George today in this great conversation focused on glimmers of eroticism in your relationship. There are two great ways to hone in on glimmers. One is to recall past positive sexual experiences in the relationship. The other is to dig below the surface of the complaint and listen to the request being made. Is your partner giving you the clues for a glimmer that you might be missing? More glimmers help us feel more hopeful and united against the negative cycle. Take a moment today to look back at your past week and explore what went well in your sexual relationship. Even the slightest change is worth noting and sharing with your love. Keep it hot y'all!
