The Modern Therapist's Survival Guide with Curt Widhalm and Katie Vernoy
Good Enough, Safe Enough: Affirming LGBTQ+ Clients When You're Not a Specialist Affirming LGBTQ+ clients when you are not a specialist: Curt Widhalm, LMFT, and Katie Vernoy, LMFT on being a good enough, safe enough therapist when you cannot refer out. Curt and Katie take on a question therapists often avoid: what do you do when an LGBTQ+ client needs care, you are not a specialist, and referring out is not possible, not safe, or not honest? In this Pride Month episode, they make the case that you can be a good enough, safe enough therapist for LGBTQ+ clients even when affirming care is not your declared specialty. Mental health deserts, narrow insurance panels, long specialist wait lists, and unsafe home environments mean referral is not always available, and sometimes referring out is closer to abandonment than care. Curt and Katie argue that scope of competence is too often used as polite cover for therapist discomfort, and that most clinical work with LGBTQ+ clients is the same work you already do well. Affirming care is the container, not a separate specialty. They also get practical about being a safe enough stopgap therapist: building a just in time consultation kit, doing the cultural humility work, and reckoning with the invisible labor and consultation tax of allyship, including why you should never bill a client to research their own identity. And they name the specific moments when referring an LGBTQ+ client out is still the right and ethical call. This is a useful conversation for generalist therapists, rural and solo clinicians, insurance-based practices, and anyone doing the ongoing work of affirming, culturally humble care. In this episode, we discuss: - Why "refer out" can be avoidance dressed as ethics, and when it is genuinely the right call - How to tell a true scope of competence limit from your own discomfort - What it means to be a good enough, safe enough therapist for LGBTQ+ clients - How to build a just in time kit so an LGBTQ+ client never lands on you cold - Why the invisible labor and consultation tax of allyship is yours to carry, not your client's to fund - The specific signs that mean you should refer out anyway Timestamps: 00:15 - Why a Pride Month episode on being good enough, not a specialist 02:56 - "Just refer out": sound advice or avoidance? 05:05 - Scope of competence versus therapist discomfort 13:08 - The good enough therapist, and when referral becomes abandonment 16:55 - Meeting clients where they are until specialist care opens up 19:03 - Building a just in time kit for your practice 24:44 - The invisible labor and consultation tax of allyship 32:10 - When you should refer out anyway Full show notes and transcript: mtsgpodcast.com Join the Modern Therapist Community Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/c/mtsgpodcast Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/therapyreimagined Modern Therapist's Survival Guide Creative Credits Voice Over by DW McCann: https://www.facebook.com/McCannDW/ Music by Crystal Grooms Mangano: https://groomsymusic.com/
Every orthodontist who talks to us eventually asks the same thing: how do I rank number one for "orthodontist in my city," and how do I stay there? Local SEO for orthodontists is not a single trick. It is on-page work on your website and Google Business Profile, then authority built through link building, applied in the right order for the footprint your practice actually has. This post breaks down how Luke Infinger and James, the SEO lead at HIP Creative, approach that problem on the GrowOrtho podcast. It covers where to start, why link building does the heavy lifting, which page you should be trying to rank, and how to handle the awkward cases: one location serving a dozen towns, or several offices spread across a region. The short version is that ranking is earned by closing the gap between your site and the practice currently sitting in the top spot, then out-building them on authority. Here is how that plays out step by step. Key takeaways Ranking starts on-page. Run a comprehensive audit of your live website and Google Business Profile, then a competitive analysis that identifies exactly what the number-one practice has that you are missing, and close that gap first. Link building is what builds authority and is the hardest part to implement correctly. The order is citations first, then press, then industry-relevant links. Start citations with business directories: Apple Maps, Yelp, and lesser-known local options like Yellow Book and Brown Book. Your name, address and phone number must match your Google Business Profile exactly. Which page ranks depends on locations. Multiple offices in one metro means optimizing the homepage as the hub with neighborhood location pages under it. A single office or offices far apart means powering up individual location pages instead. One location that wants to rank for many nearby communities should build neighborhood supporting pages linked from an "areas we serve" section, and research whether the town belongs to a larger market worth chasing. Optimize the Google Business Profile completely, then use GMB Everywhere to copy the categories, services and descriptions of the top-ranked competitor and run a weekly posting strategy (Invisalign for teens one week, braces for kids the next). To start backlinks locally, Google "local media kits," buy placements that produce a real article and brand mention with a link, and enter "Best of" contests run by Gannett and USA Today for social proof plus a backlink.

Am I good enough to be healed? It is such a common question and based on religious teaching, it is understandable why people struggle with the answer. But we have good news for you: every person who came to Jesus was a sinner...and even though they weren't good enough, Jesus still healed them. And if you are a child of God, guess what? You are more than good enough! Find out more in this inspiring episode of The Supernatural Life Podcast with Chad Gonzales! Would you like to listen to and watch more inspiring content?

---Register today for our upcoming webinar: Webinar: Stop Starting Over! Why Your Planning Keeps Falling Apart — June 15, 2026, 4 pm PT/7 pm EThttps://takecontroladhd.com/gps---"Good enough" is a phrase that can land like permission or like an accusation — and for ADHD brains that have spent a lifetime being told we're not trying hard enough, both feelings often arrive at once.This week, we're untangling that knot. Why does a phrase meant to release us so often feel like settling? Why does the ADHD brain hear "good enough" and translate it into "not enough"? And what would it actually take to reclaim the phrase as our own?This is really all about intention — the difference between walking away from something because you've been defeated by it, and walking away because you've made a choice. One leaves you smaller. The other builds something. We talk about the standards we measure ourselves against (almost always invented), the freeze that comes when nothing feels possible, and the small, almost invisible acts that count as progress even when they don't feel like it.By the end, we land somewhere unexpectedly tender: a reminder that the way we build trust with ourselves isn't by finishing things perfectly. It's by finishing them at all.There's a free download this week — five questions to help you decide what's good enough — linked below.Links & NotesDownload the What Does It Mean to be Good Enough?

I'm joined by Dr. Jeffrey Sankoff to talk about three exercise “rules” you may be allowed to break: you don't always need to spread workouts across the week, intensity doesn't have to come from a formal interval session, and most short workouts don't require a complicated hydration or fueling plan.The Exercise Rules You're Allowed to BreakHave you ever skipped a workout because you couldn't do the “right” one? Maybe you didn't have time for the gym, a long hike, or a structured bike ride. Today, we revisit Voltaire's reminder that “the great is the enemy of the good” and apply it to exercise. The evidence is reassuring: weekend workouts count, short bursts of effort during the day count, and for most workouts under an hour, hydration hype may matter far less than we've been led to believe.Dr. Jeffrey Sankoff, an ER physician, Ironman triathlete, triathlon coach, and host of the evidence-focused TriDoc Podcast, joins me for this conversation. While Jeff works with endurance athletes, today's discussion is for anyone who wants to live long and well while still managing the realities of work, family, travel, and everyday life.First, we break the calendar rule. Many people assume exercise has to be spread evenly throughout the week, but a 2024 Circulation study on “weekend warrior” physical activity found that people who concentrated their moderate-to-vigorous exercise into one or two days still had lower risk for many diseases compared with inactive people, especially cardiometabolic conditions such as hypertension, diabetes, obesity, and sleep apnea. The study was observational, so it does not prove weekend-only exercise is ideal, and injury risk still matters. But the practical message is clear: if weekdays are impossible, weekends still count. Next, we break the formal-interval rule. High intensity does not always have to mean a structured HIIT class, a bike trainer, or a carefully timed workout. A 2026 European Heart Journal study found that a higher percentage of vigorous physical activity was associated with lower risk across several chronic diseases and mortality outcomes. Even a small proportion of vigorous activity may matter, meaning short real-life bursts—taking the stairs quickly, walking briskly uphill, carrying groceries with purpose, or chasing a child or grandchild—can become meaningful movement when they raise your breathing and effort level. This study was also observational, so it cannot prove cause and effect, and anyone with medical concerns should check with their clinician before adding vigorous bursts. Finally, we break the bottle rule. For endurance races, long workouts, or hot-weather exercise, hydration, electrolytes, and carbohydrates can matter. But for many 30- to 60-minute workouts in ordinary conditions, a formal hydration or fueling plan may not be necessary. The American College of Sports Medicine's position stand emphasizes fluid replacement to support hydration during physical activity, but the need depends on duration, sweat loss, heat, and intensity. A practical “N of 1” approach is to weigh yourself before and after a typical workout to see how much fluid you actually lose. We also discuss electrolytes and carbohydrates. Electrolytes are mostly salts, and they become more relevant with long, hot, sweaty, or repeated sessions. Carbohydrate-containing drinks can help with longer endurance performance, but for a 35-minute walk or a short gym session, sugar in your bottle is usually not the bottleneck. A systematic review on carbohydrates and exercise performance found benefits in longer exercise contexts, but that does not mean every short workout needs sports drinks or gels. TakeawaysDon't let the perfect workout plan keep you from the good-enough workout you can actually do.If weekdays are packed, a weekend warrior approach may still provide meaningful health benefits.Look for small bursts of vigorous effort in daily life, and for most workouts under an hour, water when thirsty is usually enough.Send us Fan MailSupport the show

What separates a consistently great salesperson from a consistently mediocre one - when they work for the same company, sell the same product, and operate in the same market? Bestselling author David Brock returns to the show to answer exactly that. After writing the Sales Manager Survival Guide, David spent years trying to crack what was missing from the conversation around sales performance. The answer became his latest book, Good Enough, Good Enough - and it has nothing to do with your CRM, your tech stack, or your training programs. In this episode, David and St John unpack the mindsets and behaviours that actually drive sales excellence: caring, purpose, curiosity, accountability and discipline. David explains why a 15% win rate means you're losing 85% of the time, why organisations that hit their numbers are often the ones most blind to their own mediocrity, and why the soft stuff is the hardest stuff for managers to coach. You'll also hear how to recruit and interview for curiosity, the redirection question that kills excuses in coaching conversations, the story of the $20 billion company that was aiming too low, and why you're not too busy to learn - you're too busy because you're not learning.

In this episode, I reframe “good enough” as a strategic choice rather than a compromise. Perfectionism often delays progress and keeps ideas from being tested.By starting with a simpler version, you can validate what works before investing more time and energy. It is not about lowering standards, but about making smarter decisions that move your business forward.____________________

SummaryIn this Coaches Roundtable episode, Chase and Chris discuss how to stay on track with your health goals during the busy summer months. They explain why maintenance can sometimes be a better goal than fat loss when vacations, cookouts, and family events start filling your schedule.The coaches also answer questions about when it's time to lower calories versus when you're simply being impatient with results. They talk about using data instead of emotions when making nutrition changes and why consistency matters more than making drastic cuts.They dive into a listener question about gluconeogenesis and protein intake while following a ketogenic diet for medical purposes, explaining how the body creates glucose when needed and why protein needs can vary from person to person.Another important discussion focuses on the idea of a "good enough" day. Chase and Chris explain why trying to be perfect with calories, protein, workouts, water, sleep, and steps can leave you feeling like a failure, even when you're making great progress.Finally, they tackle food noise and constantly thinking about food. They share practical strategies for creating more structure, reducing decision fatigue, and building a life that doesn't revolve around food.Chapters(00:00) Summer Is Here: Why Your Goals May Need to Change(01:30) Should You Shift From Fat Loss to Maintenance?(05:07) How to Know When It's Time to Lower Calories(09:36) Gluconeogenesis, Protein Intake, and Ketogenic Diets(14:55) What Does a "Good Enough" Day Really Look Like?(21:17) Tired of Thinking About Food All the Time?(27:31) Final Takeaways and Closing ThoughtsSUBMIT YOUR QUESTIONS to be answered on the show: https://forms.gle/B6bpTBDYnDcbUkeD7How to Connect with Us:Chase's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/changing_chase/Chris' Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/conquer_fitness2021/Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/665770984678334/Interested in 1:1 Coaching: https://conquerfitnessandnutrition.com/1on1-coachingJoin The Fit Fam Collective: https://conquerfitnessandnutrition.com/fit-fam-collective
Have you ever found yourself wondering: Am I good enough? What will people think? Am I ready for this level? What if I mess up? You're not alone. In this episode, I and Lorna dive deep into one of the most common struggles riders face: the fear of not being good enough. But here's the surprising truth... This isn't actually a confidence problem. It's a nervous system problem. Many riders spend years chasing confidence, seeking reassurance, and trying to prove themselves to others. Yet no matter how many lessons, competitions, or compliments they receive, that feeling of "not enough" keeps showing up. In this episode, you'll discover why: Why the fear of not being good enough is really about safety How your nervous system interprets criticism, judgment, and mistakes Why people-pleasing is actually a survival strategy The connection between confidence, belonging, and performance Why external validation never creates lasting confidence How perfectionism keeps riders stuck in their comfort zone The difference between what people actually say and how your mind interprets it Practical tools to regulate your nervous system before riding or competing Simple breathing techniques and grounding exercises to use immediately Better questions to ask yourself when self-doubt shows up Resources Mentioned: Coaching & support: https://www.mindeq.eu/coaching
A Clare TD says it's "not good enough" that children in this county are going to school in prefabs year after year. The Department of Education has revealed that over €4 million was spent on the rental of prefabs and associated land in Clare between 2020 and 2025. It's also confirmed there are 24 rental contracts in place in the county, comprising 22 contracts for prefabs and two for land, serving nine schools in total. Bodyke Fine Gael Deputy Joe Cooney claims many of these structures aren't up to the proper standard.

Part of your armor against the ploys of the enemy is a bulletproof vest for your heart. If Satan can twist your heart, if he can harden your heart, if he can damage your heart, then he renders you ineffective. Nobody looks at a cynical, irritable, negative, grouchy Christian and says, ‘wow, I gotta have what she has.' Yip – ineffective! Zero impact for Jesus. Saved but not set apart for good works. For these reasons you are given the breastplate of righteousness, the bulletproof vest for your heart. If you feel righteous, there's a problem. You're not. There's nothing you could ever do to make yourself clean enough, good enough, or holy enough to be considered righteous in our perfect God's sight. And this is exactly why Jesus was required. Only he could make you righteous. His righteousness is imparted to you. His name is stamped on your account of debts and you're forever marked as “GOOD ENOUGH”. Not because of what you've done, but because of what Jesus did for you. Righteous – this means to be free from guilt or sin. Not without guilt or sin, but free from it. No longer bound by it. No longer in debt to it. No longer victim to it, but FREE from it. And the righteousness of Jesus has now empowered you to live better. Paul tells us in Ephesians 6:14, “Put on the breastplate of righteousness.” Other translations call it the “body armor of God's righteousness” or “God's approval as your breastplate.” TPT says, “Put on holiness as the protective armor that covers your heart.” Here's what we know – without this right standing, without God's approval, our most vital organs are completely vulnerable. The chest shot is the easiest shot and without God's covering, we will go down in the battle against our enemy. God did for us what we could never do for ourselves. No amount of good works, no amount of changed habits, no amount of perfectly met goals, nothing we could possibly do would make us righteous. “All have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God”, Romans 3:23. That includes you on your worst days and you on your best days. So here's what God did – he stepped in and bridged the gap where we fell short of his glory. He bridged that gap with a cross. A literal cross where Jesus hung – and that cross allows us to cross over from forever not good enough no matter what we do, to forever good enough because of what was done for us. When you wear that as your bulletproof vest, the flaming arrows of the enemy just bounce right off. Oh, he'll still shoot them out you, but ping ping ping, they just bounce. Your heart is untouched when you fully know the stamp of Christ's full approval on you. But … there's one little problem. The devil and his demons know full well how unworthy of this bulletproof vest of righteousness you feel when you aren't living right. It's hard to put on our divinely given righteousness when deep down we know darn good and well we're not living right. When we engage in sin, we open the door for the devil to have influence in our lives. You don't even have to open the door fully to him, but a little crack will do. A little dabble in that sin. A borderline gray area that no one knows about. Even that crack in the door will give him an opportunity. Ephesians 4:27 says, “give NO opportunity to the devil.” About 2 years ago, I began praying that God would reveal to me any part of my life that was not pleasing to him. Well that was dangerous and I didn't even know it. Suddenly the Holy Spirit started revealing all my little cracked doors to the enemy. But these were really fun things. Things I enjoyed. Things that made me happy. Things I wrestled to understand how they could be wrong. After wrestling and reasoning for months, I finally began to release these things and make changes. And let me tell you what happened – it's like the lid was taken off! I was free like never before. Blessings upon blessings. Now I wonder why I waited so long to trust God with those doors that needed to be closed. The devil had access to my heart through the little cracks I had left open, doing things God had asked me not to do. When I finally partnered with God and slammed those doors, my heart was once again fully protected with the righteousness Jesus offers. Here's the truth – the devil can't take your righteousness from you, but he sure will offer you temptations to enter into a life that is so far from God's way of living that you just dismiss yourself. When you know you're living in wrong ways, it's almost impossible to keep putting on that breastplate of righteousness. What God has given you as protection becomes a heavy reminder of your unworthiness today because of what you did yesterday. So, guess what … guilt and shame eventually make you leave the breastplate in the corner. It's too painful to put on righteousness when you know you're not living right. And boom – you're vulnerable. Now with your hidden guilt and quiet shame, your heart is left unprotected. The offered righteousness of Jesus lays on the floor as the enemy's fiery darts come flying. No, your righteousness cannot be taken from you. What Jesus did is forever done. But what can happen here is you can feel so terrible about your life that you no longer put on that righteousness. PUT ON THE BREASTPLATE OF RIGHTEOUSNESS. THIS IS PART OF GOD'S DIVINE ARMOR FOR YOU IN THE UNSEEN SPIRITUAL BATTLE. GOD. LOVES. YOU. With full awareness of every single thing you would ever do wrong, every bad choice you would ever make, every failure, every wandering step, he knowingly and willing CHOSE to give his son Jesus for you. He knew it was the only way you could be made right, and he deemed you worthy of that sacrifice. SATAN. HATES. YOU. With full awareness of God's covering of undeserved righteousness over you, Satan continually tries to remove that covering. Let me tell you something, Satan has no power to take the breastplate of righteousness from you but he certainly can convince you into living a life that makes that breastplate feel entirely too heavy to wear. Tricky little sucker will deceive you into picking up guilt and shame instead of righteousness, and wear that over your heart. My human mind cannot understand why God would do this for me. I'm messed up, and wow, I have a really special way of getting things wrong sometimes. But I choose to believe His word concerning me – I choose to believe that I am made righteous through Jesus. That his cross allows me to cross over to the righteousness I fall short of. Over and over again, God helps me when I cannot help myself. On the days when I get it right, I must remember that breastplate of righteousness has absolutely nothing to do with my good works. It was given to me to wear. It protects me from pride. On the days when I get it wrong, I must remember the breastplate of righteousness is still mine. It was given to me to wear. It protects me from guilt and shame. For his girls wearing this breastplate of righteousness, we are called to then live RIGHT. Clean up our lives. We're not given permission to continue living in the ways his Spirit tells us are wrong. That's the beauty of this walk with Jesus – we learn more and more how to live right. And as he lovingly invites us into better living, it's for our greatest benefit to trust him and leave behind our old ways. Continuing in our old ways makes it harder to put on the armor over our hearts, and without that armor, our hearts are left vulnerable. Jesus, I'm not a good guard of my own heart – I need your righteousness to guard this heart of mine. So today, for the one who feels so totally unrighteousness because of your past or present choices, please know the breastplate of Jesus' righteousness is still here for your heart. Bring him your guilt, bring him your shame, bring him your regrets and receive his holy exchange. You, the real you, all of you, forever made righteous. That's everything Satan doesn't want you to know. But when you know, your heart is protected!

In this season-opening reflection, Rohene Bouajram invites us into a personal exploration of what happens after we cross the line. Through stories of immigration, identity, and the emotional cost of shrinking, she reveals how survival can become a thermostat that limits what many women of colour believe they are allowed to have.Rohene reflects on inherited ceilings, inherited definitions of success, and the dreams we silence to appear humble or grateful. She shares the moment she realized that good enough was no longer enough and what it means to desire a life that feels expansive, aligned, abundant, and self-authored.This episode invites listeners to question the lives they inherited before they could consciously choose them, reconnect with the desires they whisper only in private, and begin imagining arenas built on truth rather than fear. Rohene closes with four powerful questions designed to help us move toward clarity, courage, and honest self-trust.This opener sets the tone for a season rooted in expansion, honesty, and the freedom to build a life that reflects who we truly are.Resources mentioned in this episode:Newsletter sign-up: https://www.rohenebouajram.comConnect with Rohene:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/rohenebouajram/Book me to speak: https://www.rohenebouajram.com/speakingWebsite: https://www.rohenebouajram.comAccess resources to redefine your leadership:https://www.rohenebouajram.com/resourcesWatch this episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/BtJQZDpTJL4
What if the reason you're exhausted is because you're still trying to earn something God has already freely given? In this episode, Laura and Nicoletta continue their study through Romans by exploring the powerful truths found in Romans 3. Together, they unpack what Paul means when he says that all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and why that truth ultimately points us to the grace of Jesus. Through biblical teaching and personal stories, they discuss perfectionism, performance-based faith, and the pressure many Christians feel to constantly do more for God. If you've ever felt like you're not doing enough, this conversation is a reminder that God's love is not earned through performance—it is received through faith in Jesus. Join Laura and Nicoletta as they discuss why grace changes everything and how Romans 3 can transform the way you view God, yourself, and the gospel. Learn more about your ad choices.

This week, Pastor Z from our Fairview Heights campus reminded us that we were created for a purpose greater than ourselves: to bring God glory. Through personal stories, Scripture, and the Gospel, we were challenged to remember that God is sovereign, present, and actively at work in our lives. Because Christ came, died, and rose again to save us, we now have the responsibility and privilege of making the Gospel known to others. As Isaiah 43:7 reminds us, we were created for His glory, and our lives should point people back to Him. Join us in the LSM Building every Tuesday at 7 p.m., and follow us on Instagram @lyahampton for more updates.

Hi, I'm John Sorensen, President of Evangelism Explosion International, and you're listening to Share Life Today. Are you a good person? You know, most people would probably say they are pretty good. Not perfect all the time, but not so bad, either. But by what standard? The Bible actually gives us the standard. Jesus says in Matthew 5:48, "Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect." Now, that creates a problem because the Bible also says 'there is no one who does good. No not one." So if our good isn't good enough, how can we earn our way into Heaven? We can't! Our best efforts could never get us close, but God, rich in mercy made a way for us! While we could never deserve it, Jesus came to earth and took our punishment upon Himself. Now all we have to do is accept God's gift of grace! So, stop trying to work your way into Heaven. Instead, place your faith in the work that Jesus did for you on the cross. If you need to know more, visit ShareLife.Today.

In this episode of Why Care?, Nadia Nagamootoo is joined by pop artist, Starling, for a conversation about self-worth, invisible adversity, ageism, loneliness and the courage to become who you really are. Starling shares how childhood trauma, industry gatekeeping and years of being told she was not enough shaped her early story, and how inner work, nervous system awareness and radical self-belief helped her rebuild it. Together, they explore the pressures of image, success and social media, why so many people still feel lonely and not good enough, and what it means to create work that heals rather than simply performs. It is a conversation about confidence, human connection and choosing yourself, again and again.Key Takeaways:Invisible adversity shapes confidence just as deeply as more visible forms of discrimination or exclusion.You can build an identity that is both fully authentic and consciously created.Success, followers and public recognition do not automatically heal not-enoughness.Feeling safe in your body and nervous system changes the quality of your choices.Self-improvement becomes healthier when it comes from self-respect rather than self-rejection.Human connection remains one of the most powerful forms of healing. Guest BioStarling is a pop artist and speaker whose work sits at the intersection of music and personal transformation, a space her growing audience describes as “pop therapy”. Once told she could not sing, she has built her career by dismantling limitations and turning lived experience into songs about empowerment, resilience and possibility. Her music centres on one core idea: you are not what has happened to you, you are what you choose to become. Alongside millions of streams, major radio and press support, and sync placements including Love Island, Starling has also built a powerful platform around self-worth, creative empowerment and human connection, helping people rethink what they are capable of becoming.Links Starling: Website | Facebook| Instagram | Spotify | Apple Music Nadia Nagamootoo: Website | LinkedIn | Instagram | Buy Beyond DiscomfortAvenir Consulting: https://linktr.ee/avenirconsultingservicesProduced by Mauro Kenji Serra, Kenji Productions

Leveling Up: Creating Everything From Nothing with Natalie Jill
We talk a lot on this show about supplements, hormones, food, sleep, and protocols. But there is a layer underneath all of that we have not gone deep on until now. Our beliefs. Who we think we are. Why we are here. And the quiet, unconscious story running the show every single day. In this episode, Natalie sits down with her own therapist Mcayla Sarno, an EMDR specialist who has spent almost twenty years helping women get to the root of the beliefs that are silently shaping their bodies, their relationships, their purpose, and their health. Natalie also shares the very personal EMDR story that changed her life. The memory with her mom in the car. The belief she did not even know she was carrying. And what shifted when she finally looked at it through different eyes. This is a real conversation about why so many of us hit midlife feeling lost, why the empty nest hits harder than anyone warned us, what is actually happening when we try to control everything, and why a therapist asking the right question will always do something ChatGPT cannot. We talk about how core beliefs form, how they show up in the body, and the work it takes to finally come home to who we have always been underneath all of it. If you have been feeling like you have done all the outer work and something inside still is not clicking, this is the episode for you. WE GO DEEP ON • What EMDR actually is and why it is not just for trauma • The difference between understanding something and integrating it • How core beliefs form and why they generalize to every area of our life • The connection between unresolved beliefs and chronic health issues • Why ChatGPT will never replace a real therapist asking the right question • The empty nest grief nobody talks about and the mini mourning of every version of our kids • Why control feels safe but never actually makes us safe (and what does) • How external validation becomes the trap of our 30s and 40s and breaks open in our 50s • The infant question that reframes everything: were you good enough the day you were born • Natalie's personal EMDR story, the car memory with her mom, and the belief she was carrying • Why 5-day intensives work when weekly therapy has not • "I always was. I already am."

Most leaders think they're doing fine. Their teams think otherwise. And that gap - hiding in plain sight across organizations everywhere - is exactly what my guest today has spent his career trying to close. David Grossman is one of America's foremost authorities on leadership and change communication inside organizations. He's a six-time author, and his latest book is The Heart Work of Modern Leadership: 6 Differentiators of Exceptional Leaders.David shares findings from a survey he conducted in partnership with Harris Poll to find out what 2,200 employed Americans thought of their leaders and what they revealed about the dangerous gap between how leaders see themselves and how their teams actually experience them. We get into the three gaps preventing good leaders from becoming exceptional, why the poker face problem is quietly undermining your credibility and connection, and why David pushes back on calling empathy a soft skill. He makes the case that empathy is actually an intelligence system, and we discuss why exceptional leaders blend both heart and head skills, how vulnerability builds trust in ways nothing else can, and that the most important leadership skill might be learning to hear what people aren't saying out loud.If you think you're a pretty good leader, this conversation is going to reveal how you can be an exceptional one.To access the episode transcript, go to www.TheEmpathyEdge.com, search by episode title.Listen in for…The three gaps that good leaders aren't thinking about but should be. The six differentiators of exceptional modern leaders.Why David wants to get rid of the term “soft skills” and start talking about the “human skills” necessary to be an exceptional leader.How to move past the Poker Face Problem. Modifying your leadership style to handle times of uncertainty. The advanced listening skills everyone should work on. "Part of our responsibility as leaders is to help create stability for our folks. We create that stability by being predictable, by leveraging these all-important heart skills as a means to get to results. I want to ensure leaders hear the need for balance between strategic thinking and empathy, or EQ - this is not an either/or proposition." — David Grossman About David Grossman, Founder and CEO, Author, The Heart Work of Modern Leadership:David Grossman is one of America's foremost authorities on leadership and change communication inside organizations.

We've got another kind of anomaly heading into Utah's primary elections next month: one candidate says if the polling for him isn't good enough, he'll drop out before the primary and throw his weight behind another "progressive" candidate. In this segment, Inside Sources talks about State Senator Nate Blouin, who's running to represent the new 1st Congressional District.
If you're exhausted from always putting everyone else first, people-pleasing, and struggling with anxiety, this conversation is going to change how you see yourself. And if you've ever felt invisible in your own family, like your needs didn't matter, or if nothing you did was ever enough, this episode will finally connect the dots for you as an adult. Today on the podcast, renowned therapist and bestselling author Kelly McDaniel explains that many of your patterns stem from a hidden wound from your childhood. Her work has helped millions of people finally name an invisible heartbreak they've been carrying for decades: Mother Hunger. She says Mother Hunger is a primal yearning for a certain quality of love, safety, and guidance that many of us didn't receive in the way we needed as children, even if our mothers did their best. This episode is not about blaming mothers. It's about telling the truth, understanding what happened, and learning how to give yourself what you went without, so you can stop proving your worth and start feeling it. In this episode, you'll learn: -What Mother Hunger is (and why it can feel like you're searching for love in the wrong places) -The 3 core needs every child requires: nurturing, protection/safety, and guidance -Why women become people-pleasers and emotional “monitors” in their families -How long-term childhood stress can show up as anxiety, emotional exhaustion, and feeling “never enough” -Why addiction and disordered eating can become ways to regulate your nervous system because you never felt safe -Why you can love your mom and still acknowledge: something was missing -How to start healing by learning to nurture, protect, and guide yourself now -Signs of an unhealthy mother-daughter relationship and how to recognize them in your own life -How mothers unknowingly pass down trauma If you've spent your entire life feeling like something was off in your relationship with your mother, but you could never quite put your finger on it, Kelly is here to say: You were right. And if you feel guilty for just considering that something might have been off, you need to hear this conversation today. Whether you had a mother who tried her best or a childhood you've never been able to make sense of, this episode will give you the truth, the framework, and the first real steps toward healing.

You are good enough. You've always been good enough. You'll always be good enough. There's always more to do, but that does NOT mean you haven't done enough. If we started truly believing that, the economy as we know it, would crumble. And I dunno, maybe that's a good thing. Decentering your "beauty" makes you more beautiful. Do you know how much time, energy, and money can be freed up when you say "this is good enough"? You are perfect, right here, right now. You have to know this. Don''t ever forget it.
