“One reason why it can feel so hard to listen to your body is because it is not normalized to move in a variety of ways that you would want to. There are certain ways of moving that are allowed or socially accepted but others are very rare to see. Therefore, it makes a lot of sense that we don't know what our body wants or can't listen to it because we always shut it down.” - David BantjeIn this episode, I'm joined by natural movement practitioner, and my loving partner, David Bantje. In this episode, he offers a refreshing, intuitive reframe on how we can shift our relationship to movement for a more liberated , and playful life. Rather than treating movement as a chore, isolated workout, or something we only do in designated spaces, David invites us to see movement as a birthright—something our bodies crave and have evolved to do in diverse, dynamic ways. He discusses how mainstream exercise culture, with its narrow focus and rigid intensity, can leave us disconnected from the deeper intelligence of our bodies. Instead, natural movement emphasizes accessibility, variety, injury prevention, and playfulness, allowing us to reconnect and reclaim our capacity for taking risks, curiosity, and aliveness. This isn't about perfection or discipline, but about attunement: giving our bodies the space to lead.In this episode we discuss:How chronic pain and injuries "stack up" from habitual postures and sedentary lifestylesWhat natural movement is, and how it helps realign us with what our bodies evolved to doThe limits of conventional fitness culture and why high-intensity, short bursts of exercise can do more harm than goodThe power of movement snacks—simple, frequent movements throughout the day—to support flexibility, awareness, and healingMovement as medicine in the context of illness, disability, and injury (including David's experience with a herniated disc)Relearning how to listen to your body, even when it doesn't communicate in languageWhy reclaiming natural movement can be a path not only to health—but to joy, agency, and freedomBioLinksDavid's Substack: https://davidbantje.substack.com/Katie Bowman: https://www.nutritiousmovement.com/Natural Movement Classes: https://movnat.com/Resources:Get the book: Mad Studies Reader: Interdisciplinary Innovations in Mental HealthBecome a member: The Institute for the Development of Human ArtsTrain with us: Transformative Mental Health Core CurriculumSessions & Information about the host: JazmineRussell.comDisclaimer: The DEPTH Work Podcast is for educational and entertainment purposes only.

Episode OverviewIn this episode, John Sanei and Erik Kruger dive deep into the essence of charisma, exploring what truly makes someone magnetic and influential beyond surface-level charm.Key TakeawaysCharisma is not about being smooth or charming, but about genuine presence, depth, and internal strength. The hosts break down six critical components of developing true charisma:1. Unshakable ConfidenceConfidence stems from feeling safe internallyPractice internal dialogue that reassures: "No matter what happens, I'll be okay"Build confidence through doing hard things and developing self-respect2. Character Over ReputationFocus on being solid, not looking goodThe truth always outlasts illusionAvoid virtual signaling and stay true to your core valuesDon't feel compelled to defend yourself constantly3. Radical IntegrityDevelop honesty as a power moveBuild trust through consistent behavior over timeMake peace with yourself by being genuineRecognize that long-term relationships are built on consistent character4. Zero Need to ConvinceMagnetic people don't chase approvalState your truth and let it landAvoid getting drawn into unnecessary argumentsUnderstand that not everyone needs to agree with you5. Purpose in ActionFollow your curiosity and excitementCommunicate your mission openly and clearlyStay aligned with your personal geniusRecognize the difference between charm and genuine flow6. Humanize EverythingCompliment freelyEmbrace vulnerabilityUnderstand that perfection is boring, and flaws create connectionBe willing to show your authentic self, including your quirks and insecuritiesNotable Quotes"Charisma is not about charm. It's about presence, depth, and the energy that makes people lean in to listening to you.""When you arrive into a room, are you giving people a remote control or a manual?""The better storyteller you are, the more momentum you'll build around your message."Practical TakeawayCharisma is not a trick but a way of being.

Do you hate the gym? This might be diet cultures fault.Today, I'm chatting with Maggie Lawlor, owner of Simple Strength Gym in Leixlip, who specialises in non-diet fitness for women.Maggie first got into gym-based training as a runner trying to avoid injuries, but over the years, her passion grew. She eventually became a coach, left her job as a nurse, and took the leap to open her own gym.We talk about:Making the move from nursing to coaching and how she gradually built her client base before going all inHer first pregnancy and how it led her deep into research on strength training for womenThe pressure on women to “bounce back” after pregnancy and why that mindset needs to changeThe physical benefits of strength training before and after birthHow experienced lifters sometimes struggle to adjust intensity during pregnancyListening to your body and why rest is not a sign of weaknessThe grip of diet culture on women and the fear of losing fitness or gaining weight instead of focusing on growing a humanWhy every woman should see a pelvic floor physio postpartumRunning a marathon while breastfeeding (!?)The dangers of comparing yourself to celebrities or athletes with completely different circumstancesWe then dive into Maggie's approach at Simple Strength Gym:Why so many people think they hate gyms when really, they just hate the association with punishment and guiltHow she reassures new clients—no weigh-ins, no unrealistic expectations, just movement that feels goodThe health benefits of exercise we all take for granted until they're goneWhy smaller studio gyms can be a better fit for people nervous about startingThe importance of paying attention to the content you consume and how it shapes your self-imageThe sneaky ways diet culture hides in fitness challenges—if it looks like a diet, it probably isWhy true healthy habits aren't flashy, but they actually workHow fitness should be simple—if someone overcomplicates it, that's a red flagAccepting that some days will be better than others and that doesn't make you a failureMaggie finishes with some brilliant advice to leave you thinking.To find out more or work with Maggie, you can find her at:@simple.strength.leixliphttps://www.simplestrengthleixlip.com/If you are interested in working with me you can find me :Equestrian Instagram: @stronginthesaddle_Equestrian Tiktok: @ stronginthesaddleFREE Happy Hips for horseriding PDFFREE Supple Shoulders for the Saddle PDFWebsite: www.chrissyhawkins.com

Have you ever caught yourself comparing your success to someone else's? When I watched Demi Moore's recent Golden Globe speech, it hit home. Comparison is something ALL ambitious leaders struggle with, no matter how successful or experienced you are. And today, we're tackling it head-on. Picture this...You're feeling on top of the world -- fulfilled by your work and completely satisfied with where you are in life. Then out of nowhere, it all comes crashing down. You're scrolling LinkedIn and see a peer being featured in a major industry publication. Or a colleague lands the promotion you were hoping for -- taking on a bigger role, leading a high-profile project, or stepping into the C-suite.Suddenly, the confidence and excitement you had about your progress disappear. You start questioning yourself and doubting your abilities.What you're experiencing is career ‘comparisonitis'. And you're not alone. Comparison culture is everywhere -- especially in a world of social media and ‘perfect' Instagram feeds. They say comparison is the thief of joy, but it's also the thief of progress. It pulls you away from your own goals and often leads to inaction.Does it feel like everyone else is getting ahead -- faster than you?In today's episode, I share five practical strategies to stop the cycle of comparison -- once and for all!You'll learn:The psychology behind comparison, WHY you fall into the trap and the first step to break freeMy personal experience with comparisonitis -- and two ways to transform it into fuel for successHow to redefine success on YOUR own terms and train your brain to let go of career comparison for goodThe simple mindset shift to silence self-doubt and help you make a real impactSo hit play NOW -- and let's dive in!Thanks for listening.

Science can change your life. The more we study what makes people develop, grow, learn, and flourish—the more we see how the practical application of scientific findings can help us transform our life and experience—into a life of value, meaning, purpose and true thriving.Yale psychologist Laurie Santos has spent her career investigating the human brain and how it thrives. From her popular Yale course to her podcast, The Happiness Lab, she's communicating actionable and hopeful lessons for how to build lasting habits, cultivate self-compassion, manage complex emotions, and realign our lives toward meaningful happiness.In this conversation with Dr. Laurie Santos, we discuss:How the mental health crisis affecting young people changed her, and how she teaches psychologyHow our brains lie to usThe role of positive and negative emotions in a good lifeHow feeling good can lead to doing goodThe psychological and relational benefits of faith and spiritualityAnd she offers practical insights, science-backed guidance, and powerful exercises for managing misalignment and difficult emotions.Laurie Santos on how to activate psychological science for more happiness and meaning (from the episode):“Some of these factors that we know scientifically do work. From simple behavior changes like being more social, doing nice things for others, just healthy habits like sleeping and moving your body, to mindset shifts, to becoming a little bit more present, to becoming more other oriented, to becoming more grateful, more self-compassionate, and so on.There are shifts that we can make that can have a huge effect on how we actually interact in the world.We need to understand that we're not perfect, we're just human. And we will mess up a little bit too. But it's really the journey that matters.”About Laurie SantosDr. Laurie Santos is the Chandrika and Ranjan Tandon Professor of Psychology at Yale University and host of The Happiness Lab podcast. Dr. Santos is an expert on the science of happiness. Her Yale course, Psychology and the Good Life, teaches students how the science of psychology can provide important hints about how to make wiser choices and live a life that's happier and more fulfilling. Her course recently became Yale's most popular course in over 300 years, with almost one of our four students at Yale enrolled. Her course has been featured in numerous news outlets including the New York Times, NBC Nightly News, The Today Show, GQ Magazine, Slate and O! Magazine.

What does it mean to you to live a life with no regrets? Is that even possible?What if it's less about avoiding regrets entirely and more about being clear on your values, dreams, and desires and combining that with intentional practices to build a life focused on things that matter to you and the world around you?Of course, this takes work because we're constantly pulled in many different directions and responding to many inputs, just trying to keep our heads above water. To lead well, we must get clarity in our values and develop trusting relationships with our inner worlds and physical bodies.Instead of chasing a life with zero regrets, we need to learn to respond well to our regrets in the moment. If we want to look back and feel good about how we responded, we can't numb out or bypass; we must make amends and correct our course.Today's conversation is with a long-time friend and colleague who reminds us that living an aligned life is a meandering path, a life that is always stretched and tested. It's not always easy, but when we stay connected to our values, desires, and integrity, there can be ease and clarity even in the hard times.Molly Mahar is the founder of Stratejoy, a community helping women reclaim intimate, honest, and joyful relationships with themselves for the good of all. She's an entrepreneur, mama, writer, and adventurer obsessed with designing personal experiments that scare you, telling the truth, and her new teardrop trailer.

Migraines and ADHD are something I hear about a lot in my ADHD female community. I also relate to this from a personal perspective with one of my ADHD daughters suffering from migraines, as well as quite a few friends. Migraines can be a lifelong debilitating condition alongside the many other symptoms that come with them. Today's ADHD Women's Wellbeing Podcast episode explores the very powerful connection between migraines and neurodivergence in women with my guest, Diane Ducarme, the contemporary master of migraine investigation. Her unique approach combines the ancient wisdom of Traditional Chinese Medicine with cutting-edge technology to unearth the intricate root causes of migraines weaving on top of genetics. Diane's relentless inquisitive mind for highly complex problems is what allows her to deliver life-transforming results, which is the fuel to her energy.What sets Diane apart is her emphasis on the power of functional foods. Unlike conventional approaches focusing on eliminating foods, Diane adds new elements to the equation. Her dedication to unravelling the mysteries of migraines has inspired a podcast, "Migraine Heroes," and her company, Nectar Health, is at the forefront of this remarkable journey towards migraine relief and wellness.On this episode, Kate and Diane speak about:A digestive superfood that could help your migrainesThe vagus nerve and the connection to migrainesWhy migraines could be related to your ADHD How your digestive system can hold the keys to health The connection between your brain function and your food The profound wisdom of Chinese traditional medicineHow Hormonal shifts affect your gut and brainHaving period cycles that can actually feel goodThe effects of endometriosis on the digestive system What chinese traditional medicine can teach you about ADHDFind out more about Diane and her work on her website www.mynectarhealth.comKate's new four-part workshop series, Regulating Your ADHD Nervous System, is available here.Have a look at some of Kate's workshops and free resources here.Kate Moryoussef is a women's ADHD Lifestyle and wellbeing coach and EFT practitioner who helps overwhelmed and unfulfilled newly diagnosed ADHD women find more calm, balance, hope, health, compassion, creativity, and clarity.

But eventually he did and both Nick and his wife Catherine managed to hit a homerun on their first deal.

Hopestream for parenting kids through drug use and addiction
Today we tackle the difficult topic of shame and how it can affect our entire families. As parents of kids who are misusing drugs or alcohol, it's common to experience a profound sense of failure or guilt when their lives begin to spin out of control.And as today's guest says, “How could you not?” For many of us, it can seem like our kids are entirely different than the people we raised. As a substance use disorder progresses, they may engage in ugly behaviors like lying, cheating, or stealing that are contrary to everything we taught them. It's not hard to understand why that often leads to a sense of shame in parents.On this episode, I'm joined by Patrick Hawkins, founder of Triple Divide Lodge, a 90-day program that combines residential treatment and adventure therapy for young men ages 14-19. Patrick's wealth of experience helps us work through these family dynamics of shame and how they affect not just our kids but us as well.You'll hear:How “spontaneous rationalizations” trump unidentified and unresolved feelings in our kidsHow those feelings pile up over time into chronic emotional distress, which is often used as a subconscious justification for continuing their substance useWhy kids are truly unaware that the problem is addiction, and why that should alleviate so much of the guilt we may feelWhy turning our child into our parental report card leads to emotionally driven behavior – and why that's rarely goodThe podcast is now part of a nonprofit called Hopestream Community: www.hopestreamcommunity.orgLearn about The Stream, our private online community for moms, at www.hopestreamcommunity.org/the-stream/Find us on Instagram: @hopestreamcommunityDownload my free e-book, HINDSIGHT: Three Things I Wish I Knew When My Son Was Misusing Drugs: www.brendazane.com/hindsightJoin my email list: www.brendazane.com/email
