Podcasts about Healing

Why does healing feel so hard, and why doesn't "regulating your nervous system" fix it? Nervous system expert Masha Kay returns to break down what the internet gets wrong about nervous system regulation, why regulation has become the new perfectionism, and what capacity really means in dating and relationships. We talk about why someone can love you and still not meet your needs, how to handle being triggered by a text, why "if he wanted to, he would" is bad advice, and what's actually going on when an avoidant partner shuts down. Masha explains somatic experiencing and titration in plain terms, how to stop ruminating and overthinking, and why building stability in your whole life matters more than any quick trick for calming anxiety. If you're dealing with anxious attachment, a painful breakup, emotional triggers, or healing from childhood patterns, this episode gives you real tools for healing trauma, feeling safe in your body, and building healthier relationships.

October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month, and Brenda J. and Karen B. are honored to welcome Lauren Rose back to the Hanging On To Hope podcast. Lauren works with Called to Peace Ministries, led by Joy Forrest, and is now a life coach focusing specifically on helping women rebuild their lives after domestic abuse. As a survivor of domestic violence and coercive control, Lauren shares part of her story and the experiences that led her to become a life coach. She also shares domestic violence statistics to raise awareness of the severity of this issue. Lauren helps women navigate separation and divorce as Christians, heal from what they have experienced, and rediscover who they are. Through her coaching, she helps women understand who God created them to be and explore where they go from here. We also discuss the importance of finding your voice and sharing your story with safe, trusted, trauma-informed people who support your healing. This conversation offers encouragement and hope for women moving forward after abuse. https://calledtopeace.org https://livefound.org/meet-lauren/ https://hangingontohope.org

What if some of the pain we carry isn't only about what happened to us—but about the story we created around what happened?In this deeply personal solo episode, Linda shares how a season of profound despair led her to question some of the beliefs she held about God, herself, and her circumstances. What she discovered became an important part of her healing: sometimes the beliefs underneath our pain aren't actually true.Linda explores the connection between misunderstanding and despair and shares stories from the scriptures, along with a surprising and painful experience involving The Chosen, that helped her recognize beliefs she didn't even realize she was carrying.One of those beliefs was essentially:God loves His children... except me.People can heal... except me.Things can get better... except for me.Those hidden “except me” beliefs can shape how we interpret our experiences and can leave us feeling rejected, hopeless, stuck, or alone.But what if the story we're telling ourselves isn't true?Linda invites you to consider a different question when you find yourself discouraged or struggling:“What am I believing that might not actually be true?”This isn't about pretending painful experiences didn't happen or simply thinking positively. It's about becoming aware of the beliefs we've attached to those experiences, questioning what we've been telling ourselves, and making room for a truer and healthier perspective.In this episode, Linda explores:How misunderstanding can contribute to despairThe difference between what happens to us and what we believe it meansThe hidden stories we may carry about ourselves, God, and our circumstancesHow “except me” beliefs can keep us stuckWhy becoming aware of our beliefs can be an important part of healingHow questioning an old story can open the door to hope and possibilityA simple question you can use to begin uncovering beliefs that may no longer serve youYou don't have to solve everything today.Instead, think of one area of your life where you feel discouraged, stuck, hopeless, or in despair.Then ask:What am I believing about this situation—or about myself—that might not actually be true?Bring it into the light. Question it. And then ask:“What might be more true?”Because sometimes healing begins when we discover that the story we've been living with isn't the whole story.Listen, Share, and SupportIf this episode resonated with you, please share it with someone who may need hope today.Be sure to subscribe, leave a rating and review, and help us spread more healing and inspiration to the world.Free Resource for HealingIf you're ready to release stress, calm your mind, and begin healing from within, visit:

Today I'm sitting down with Crysanne and Coryn, the mother-daughter duo behind the Her Healthy Body podcast — a show where faith and health meet. This conversation went places I didn't expect, and I'm so glad it did. We talk honestly about body image, self-worth, the generational patterns we pass down (and the healing we can pass down instead), and the truth about the GLP-1 era we're living in. If you've ever wondered "did I cause this for my daughter?" or "is it too late for me?" — this one's for you. In this episode: Two stories, one thread. Crysanne grew up a "high cardio, low fat" girl of the '80s whose teenage weight loss turned into an eating disorder, then decades of "orthorexia" — an unhealthy pursuit of healthy. Coryn grew up inside that environment, fell in love with the gym, then spiraled into bodybuilding, lost cycles, and disordered patterns of her own. Same damage, different faces — restriction for one, binge patterns for the other. What we pass down — and what we can pass down instead. The hard truth Crysanne names: what I said to my daughter and what I did were two different things. But the conversation flips the script — we don't only pass down the curses. We can pass down the hope and the healing too. When you honor and nourish yourself, you become the model, not the warning. When worth comes from the world. Crysanne's most vulnerable share: a marriage ending, rock bottom, and realizing her self-worth had been built entirely on the world's approval — "look how skinny you are" — which left her empty and always chasing. Everything shifted when she started seeing herself through God's eyes instead of the world's. You are worth more than rubies — and God doesn't view you as a label. Letting go of control. Both women land in the same place: surrender. You get to the end of yourself, stop future-tripping, and finally let God have it. That's where the peace lives. The truth about GLP-1s. We go there honestly. "Do you really have your dream body if it's a nightmare to maintain?" We talk about why GLP-1s can function like "an eating disorder in a shot," the muscle loss nobody mentions, what happens when the insurance runs out — and the difference between chasing fast weight loss and building a body that's genuinely healthy. (There's a place for support and healthy habits — but a shortcut that creates a worse situation isn't it.) The side effect of healthy. The big reframe: looking good isn't the goal — feeling good is, and looking good becomes the side effect. Imagine waking energetic, sleeping through the night, getting dressed without mirror-checking, enjoying the meal without the shame. That's freedom. That's "God food," presence, and joy. What it means to be your best self. I asked them both — and without missing a beat: being present, and letting go of control. Present with God, with your kids, with your clients, with your food. Because if you're obsessing over the scale or the menu, there's no way you're living as the best version of you. "When you realize you're a daughter of the Most High — worth taking care of, worth loving — you walk differently. And whether you're an extra-extra small or an extra-extra large, it doesn't make a difference, because God doesn't view you as a label." Go follow Crysanne and Coryn — the Her Healthy Body podcast is on all platforms. They keep it real, raw, and rooted in faith, and we need more of that. Ready to find your own freedom?

Hey, Survivor! Has your healing changed your relationships?

Should Christians pray for healing and deliverance? Absolutely. But should churches create formal healing and deliverance ministries? In this episode, the guys discuss the work of the Holy Spirit, prayer for healing and deliverance, and the danger of becoming presumptuous about how and when God will act.To ask a question email us at podcast@tobethechurch.com or submit a question on tobethechurch.comSocial media @tobethechurchtobethechurch.com

I think it is bad to judge yourself for being jealous and not actually taking a moment to know why. What about that thing is making me have the grass is greener?Lesley Logan 0:11  Welcome to the Be It Till You See It podcast where we talk about taking messy action, knowing that perfect is boring. I'm Lesley Logan, Pilates instructor and fitness business coach. I've trained thousands of people around the world and the number one thing I see stopping people from achieving anything is self-doubt. My friends, action brings clarity and it's the antidote to fear. Each week, my guest will bring bold, executable, intrinsic and targeted steps that you can use to put yourself first and Be It Till You See It. It's a practice, not a perfect. Let's get started.Lesley Logan 0:54  Welcome back to the Be It Till You See It interview recap where my co-host in life, Brad and I are going to dig into the insightful convo I had with Jamie Lerner in our last episode. If you haven't yet listened to that interview, feel free to pause this now and go back and listen to that one, and then come back and join us, or you can just listen all the way through and then just let your podcast play that one. Brad Crowell 1:11  You can start at episode one. We're only 740 in right now.Lesley Logan 1:15  I know. I mean, so many. It's so many. Today is October 1st 2026. It is ADHD Awareness Month, and you are listening to two ADHD hosts. By the way, just so you know, when we record these, the Adderall is worn off, so.Brad Crowell 1:29  That's also true.Lesley Logan 1:30  It's all we don't ever record when we are medicated. So because that would be that would make too much sense. But ADHD Awareness Month shines a light on Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder throughout October. This vital observance, spearheaded by organizations like Attention Deficit Disorder Association, aims to educate the public, reduce stigma, and champion effective treatments. Join the conversation, share resources, and support those navigating life with ADHD. I just want to tell you guys, it's not like a trend to go get diagnosed. If you think that you that's what's going on with you. You should do it because there are really great tools and systems that you can use. You don't have to take Adderall. There's other options. There's other systems you could put in place. But it has been really quite helpful to understand what's ADHD and what's just tired and what's whatever. And oh, I'm going on a dopamine high. Let's adopt a dog. You know, decisions like that. But I highly recommend it. And then the other thing I just want to add is I listened to this really wonderful clip where this woman said that the title ADHD is not really the best because it's what it is is it's a regulation disorder. People with ADHD have a hard time regulating in general. So like we go on highs and lows and highs and lows because it's really hard to regulate. I really like the example of you know those of you who listen to the podcast. Most of you understand, in the 80s and 90s there were those pens that had red, green, black, blue, right?Brad Crowell 2:50  Sure.Lesley Logan 2:51  So a neurotypical person will think red, click red, use red, finish the red, right? A neurodivergent person. Brad Crowell 3:00  Is that what they'll do?Lesley Logan 3:00  Yeah, a neurodivergent person with ADHD will go. I had five ideas, all five pen, all five colors at the same time. That's how their brain works. And I thought that if you don't understand what that's like, you that I think it's a good visual. So, anyways, if you hear chewing in the background, that's Darla, and we're gonna let her do it because it keeps her busy, otherwise. Brad Crowell 3:19  That's her ADHD (inaudible) also, too, my understanding is that ADHD presents itself slightly differently between men and women, and it's really coming out strong as. Lesley Logan 3:34  The largest number of women are going through perimenopause at the same time.Brad Crowell 3:37  Yes, that is the point I was ultimately trying to eloquently get to, that I am not a woman to be able to say that, but that's happening right now, and so it might be that you have ADHD undiagnosed and don't know it. And if you're thinking, "Oh my god, I can't fucking think anymore, maybe it's because of this, and it's worth going to talk to someone about it. We did, and it was hilarious. Lesley's already told the story, but in five minutes, the psychiatrist was, "Yeah, you have ADHD. I'm giving you boom. You know, you're good. Let's go.Lesley Logan 4:10  And Brad and I did.Brad Crowell 4:11  I had to do a friggin' test.Lesley Logan 4:12  You did all the tests. I was. I don't have time for these tests.Brad Crowell 4:16  I had to go do a whole computer exam and the whole nine. I mean, I'm glad I did, but also I was. I gotta go all the way back out here to this place. I mean it's like 20 minutes away, but it felt like forever. Anyway, I'm very happy that I am formally diagnosed, and it has been interesting to to be taking medication for something like this because I I just always assumed that I was just getting older and my brain wasn't working the way that it used to, and that's true, I think. But also, I wonder. I don't know. I felt very productive and you know cogent when I was younger, and then things just started to slip away for me, and I just associated that with all the things that happened in my life and. Lesley Logan 4:55  Maybe you're going through perimenopause.Brad Crowell 4:56  Yeah, I must be. I mean, I think I think that's it.Brad Crowell 5:00  That's the conclusion. I don't even know how I didn't come to that conclusion. Lesley Logan 5:02  You know what I will say is the psychiatrist was really thoughtful. She said, "Look, she says what you'll have to understand about yourself is it's you versus the ADHD, and if you can really understand what's me and what's ADHD, it will really help you. As is a child where my ADHD was fully showing up, and people, oh, you're just not applying yourself. Oh, you're just being you're procrastinating. Oh, this, and so really, I'll be completely honest. I actually had a moment of being fucking pissed off because I think my life would be completely different had someone just diagnosed me earlier. Instead, I went my whole life masking, and then I got to a place where my hormones weren't helping me mask anymore, and I was tired of masking. And then I was just a fucking cunt. I was just mean. I was irritable. And now, when I am taking the medication and I'm focused and I'm irritable, I actually know that I am actually irritated. Versus, oh, this is just my. I'm tired. My brain is not able to operate, which means watch the fuck out because now I know.Brad Crowell 6:03  Now we know.Lesley Logan 6:04  Now we know. Now we know. And I'm a January Aquarius, and so some of it is we're tired. We're ready. We're moving on. Anyways, moving on. There's a lot of a lot of events and travel. So upLift is our teacher training program. You probably have heard the rumor. It's been something they've been whispering about. But my teacher training program for new teachers or partially trained teachers is called upLift, and it is going to start early next year in many different cities. If you want to know which cities that are going to be in.Brad Crowell 6:27  Probably around the world, in fact.Lesley Logan 6:29  That's our goal. That's our goal. At the time we're recording this, I'm looking at the applications right now, and I have some really epic educators that have applied that I'm really excited about. We're working really hard to make sure that next year is the right time for them, but you want to go to xxll.co/uws xxll.co/uws. If you are what are what is this all. Brad Crowell 6:51  That's for upLift waitlistLesley Logan 6:53  studentBrad Crowell 6:54  studentLesley Logan 6:54  and you can blame Brad. So go there because I'm updating that waitlist monthly, and those are the people the people who will hear about the locations first. You won't have to wait for the Instagram algorithm to show you something. eLevate is for those who are already trained and you're looking for more of a master's program to study amongst other teachers, and you want to directly study with me. You can look at our live Q and A call that we did earlier this summer. I guess it's at lesleylogan.co/elevate. I will just tell you, we're recording this not when you're hearing it, and at the time of recording, there are two spots left in 2028, and 10 applications that at any time someone could go, yes, I'm ready, but don't let that stop you. Check it out. See, you might get the last spot if that's what you're looking for. Also, eLevate grads are the people who right now can apply to be an upLift educator. So if you were oh I want to be one of those educators, you must have gone through upLift at this time. So check that out. The flashcards. If you didn't know, maybe you love OPC or you're not ready to be an OPC member yet, but you are wanting to study with me, and like the other options are just not what you need right now. You can be a Pilates lover of any level. You can be a teacher of any background. And when you buy the OPC flashcards, you're actually supporting the Nevada SPCA, which is where we got Miss Darla. Go to opc.me/flashcards. We have six decks in there in the set, and they're wonderful. And they're edited by a contemporary trained instructor with contemporary equipment, and they are edited by my sister-in-law, who's never done Pilates. So anyone can read them. And then we have heard so many times people don't know where the posters are. Go to opc.me/posters. Okay, wow, this is a lot of talking. Really quickly, we are headed to Sacramento literally next week, and it's sold out. So you, too bad, so sad. You missed. If you don't have a ticket, you're. We're not seeing you there.Brad Crowell 8:36  Sacramento because Balanced Body is having a Pilates On Tour. It's also their 50th anniversary celebration.Lesley Logan 8:41  You can hang out with me at another 50th celebration, but stay tuned for that. We are going to go from Sacramento by another train to San Francisco. I think this sounds like a terrible idea, but this is what we're doing to fly to Cambodia to lead our retreat. And it was definitely an ADHD planned moment, and now we're going to live it.Brad Crowell 9:00  Oh we're living it.Lesley Logan 9:01  We're living it. Just thinking about the return trip home. So here's the deal, guys. We're driving to Sacramento with the van.Brad Crowell 9:07  Which is nine and a half hours.Lesley Logan 9:08  Nine and a half hours. Okay, sounds fun because it's so much easier than shipping the flashcards. It costs us so much fucking money to do that. Brad Crowell 9:15  It's also trying to get the van at the event.Lesley Logan 9:18  Yeah, but it's not gonna. Brad Crowell 9:21  We're gonna park that right out front. We're we're putting that in they're gonna they're gonna valet park that sucker right in front of the entrance.Lesley Logan 9:28  I know Brad's gonna figure that out because the event is not at their headquarters. Brad Crowell 9:31  No, it's at the Hyatt or something. Lesley Logan 9:32  It's like a thing, right? Yeah. So, anyways, I'll let you figure that out because I that's not my monkey, not my circus. Then we'll be at the event. Then we're gonna park that van at Ken Endelman's house, supposedly, which we have no idea where that is in regards to the Amtrak. We have to take an Amtrak. Hopefully, there's one left. We take the Amtrak to a BART before the BART shut down on a Sunday night. From the BART to our hotel, and then the next morning we fly out of San Francisco. Part of me is just throw money at this problem and park the van somewhere in San Francisco, but it's San Francisco, and I'm a little worried someone's going to move in. So we're not doing that. Not doing that. So, then. Brad Crowell 10:08  No, if we're going to throw money at the problem, we're hiring a private driver from Sacramento.Lesley Logan 10:11  That's a great idea. But here's what's going to happen: we return back, and we have to do the reverse trip, you guys, we have to go BART to Amtrak, Amtrak to the van, and then a nine and a half hour drive home. And this is the part that I don't think my husband has thought through. So you're hearing it first here. I think he is too. So if you want to go to Cambodia next year, when we're not doing planes, trains, and automobiles, you can get on the wait list. I don't know the link for that. Brad will tell you.Brad Crowell 10:39  crowsnestretreats.comLesley Logan 10:41  Great. January is when we'll open up the early bird. We have so many people interested in 2027. I promise you do not want to wait. Brad Crowell 10:48  We had a lot of interest, especially from this summer tour that we just got back from. A lot of interest, and I'm telling you, this past year's trip sold out in three weeks, and I'm sure this one is going to do the same or even faster.Lesley Logan 11:02  Yeah. Then in November, I'm teaching at basically a Pilates On Tour, but in China, outside of Shanghai, I can't tell you how you're going to sign up for that. But I feel I feel like if you Google it, it will happen. They are not. They've not sent me a link for you. So, but people are excited.Brad Crowell 11:17  You can find it online.Lesley Logan 11:18  I'm sure you can. I'm sure you're all here. I'm sure you can all Google, but then because I'm a crazy person, I'm gonna go back to Asia two weeks later to teach at Pilates On Tour Goa.Brad Crowell 11:30  Which is India.Lesley Logan 11:31  Yeah, it is India. I think people know Goa. It looks stunning, you guys. And this particular POT, it's the last one of the 50th year celebration, and when you, it's very different because we all have lunch together. It's more like a retreat style. You are there for the whole event. You are going to go to Instagram Pilates On Tour India, and you can sign up through there because.  Brad Crowell 11:54  It's not on the POT page. It's not on Balanced Body's website.Lesley Logan 11:57  I mean, you know what? It might be.Brad Crowell 11:58  It is. It's xxll.co/potLesley Logan 12:00  Okay, do that. What do I know? I'm just the. Brad Crowell 12:02  I'm sure it's on there.Lesley Logan 12:03  You guys, today is October 1st, which means the tickets drop today for the winter tour. So do not miss out. Go to opc.me/tour because.Brad Crowell 12:12  By the way, if you didn't hear what she just said, the winter tour tickets have just dropped today.Lesley Logan 12:19  Today, today, today, and we, it's going to be a very big tour. I'm actually flying from Goa to Denver, which doesn't make any sense now that I know the route. I'm coming through Europe, so I probably should have met you in New York. Brad Crowell 12:34  Yeah, we're not. We're not doing that. You're coming as close to home as possible, but yeah, we're going to pick her up in in in Denver, and then go from there. But it's exciting to see the route is coming together. We're almost done. I can tell you the first half of the tour is going to take us from we're going to do Fort Collins or just south. There's a smaller town just south of Fort Collins. That's going to be the first tour stop. It's going to go up. There's a couple of stops on the way to Chicago, and there's a bunch more stops on the way to Boston, and then we're gonna scoop back around through New York and then Hershey, we're coming back to you.Lesley Logan 13:06  We love Hershey. You love us. Brad Crowell 13:09  Then we're going down East Coast, but we're gonna cut over to Charlotte, North Carolina, and then we're gonna make our way down to Florida and then back across the country. So those are still TBD. We're working out the-the logistics and all the things. Lesley Logan 13:22  By the time you're hearing this, it's worked out.Brad Crowell 13:24  Oh yeah, it's worked out. Just go to OPC.me/tour. What am I talking about?Lesley Logan 13:27  We're actually just recording this in the past.Brad Crowell 13:30  Yeah.Lesley Logan 13:31  Before it has been because that's how we do life. Okay, we got to move on.Brad Crowell 13:34  Let's go. Let's go.Lesley Logan 13:35  So real quick, you guys, as you know, October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and we wanted to spotlight a a project that we actually know the founder of very well. We know Pilates instructors who are part of it. So it's a nonprofit built by the Pilates community, founded in 2012 by Pilates instructor Jill Hinson after she saw firsthand how quickly Reformer work helped two clients recover from breast cancer surgery to regain their strength and mobility. So it's the Core Compassion Project, and realized that most people who could benefit from Pilates couldn't afford it. So, especially when they're going through cancer treatment. So, Core Compassion provides Pilate scholarships to breast cancer patients and survivors. $700 funds 10 private one-on-one sessions with a certified instructor who's specifically trained in post-cancer rehab, which is very important. You can't just show up to any Pilates studio and expect them to be able to support you during this journey, you definitely want someone who understands because they'll probably need what they can also provide is free specialized fitness bras and lymphedema compression sleeves, and then things which are things like survivors are needing, but the insurance doesn't cover most times. Doesn't cover a lot of things anymore. It's 100% volunteer run with a board that includes past scholarship recipients, and every October they rally the Pilates community together through their Compassion MATraiser, where studios and teachers host donation-based classes to fund the mission. If you are a Pilates person listening to this, and probably you are, this is your charity. So find more at corecompassionproject.org, or if you're just someone who wants to support women who are going through this and need this, it's at corecompassionproject.org. Obviously, if you don't have, you can also just supply $5. I mean, they'll take it, I'm sure. So, but $700 gets you gets that person 10 one-on-one sessions, which is really wonderful for someone who can understand what they're going through. So, anyways, if you have a charity you'd like us to look into, or you have a win that you want me to talk about on the FYFs, you can text us at 310-905-5534 or submit it at beitpod.com/questions. Yeah, okay, we're ready to talk about Jamie Lerner, finally.Brad Crowell 15:32  Woo!Brad Crowell 15:34  Welcome back. Let's talk about Jamie Lerner. Jamie is a well-being therapist and an author. She helps people get from where they are to where they want to be. After years as a psychotherapist, Jamie realized that having people look back at their past was not helping them move forward. Instead, it was becoming the very excuse that kept them stuck. So she walked away and looked within, discovering that her superpower was her own inner knowing about her own life, and she was trying to figure out how to explain that to others, how they can get back to that themselves. So today, she teaches people to trust themselves, take personal responsibility, and get lovingly curious about their own inner being. So, she wrote a book. It's called The Ever Loving Essence of You. You can find it on Amazon. She also has a service called The Quickie, which is her texting service where you can buy a package of time and text back and forth with her. Those links are going to be in the show notes. But she clearly has been through the psychotherapy couch sessions and was I'm over this myself. I'm I'm going to help people in a different way. It was really cool.Lesley Logan 16:38  I can't even imagine because I have to be honest. I can't even have friends who repeat themselves and stick get stuck. Like it really, it takes everything in me to listen to someone complain about the same thing for the third time. I cannot. So I could not ever have that job. And she said we we often live in a this victim mentality, and that society actively rewards women for being the victim by putting ourselves last and being overworked, and so it's true because everyone just wears the busy badge, right? I've got the busy badge of honor over here, and look how busy I am, look how tired I am, and look at all the things that I've done. And then guess what, you guys? Let's guess what they're gonna do. When you fail, then they're gonna call you controlling, emotional, emotional perfectionist, some control freak. So you can't win, but it's a false belief that all these other things are more important than our own well-being, and we use, she said, we use being busy as an excuse, choosing to hide behind it simply because we do not know how to include ourselves in self-care, and I think this is really key because I meet so many people who say, well, so it must be so nice for you because you have the time. You don't have kids, so you must have the time. You're right. I don't have kids. I don't have kids. We have two dogs, so I don't. They're not the same. But also, we're very busy. We have three companies plus a fourth in a different country. We have hundreds of members. We have dozens of people on our team. We have a different version of responsibilities. And if I do not take care of myself, I am not going to be able to do these things.Brad Crowell 18:06  Yeah, we we have a different definition of busy, and it doesn't involve you know kids and soccer games.Lesley Logan 18:10  I would say different definition of responsibility. We have different responsibilities. So, but I.  Brad Crowell 18:15  I guess we have a we have the same we have we have the same I'm busy excuse, but just in a different manner.Lesley Logan 18:21  Yeah, but I also, but I really do think that she is correct that we went. Okay, this. Well, I'm glad that we're re-recording this. You guys, this is the second time we record this. We recorded this before tour, and now we're back from tour. And we were in a city. I will not name the city, but we were in a city, and it was, we walked into a restaurant, which, by the way, the team did not tell me that there's probably a dress code. So I walk in, in cutoff shorts and an oversized T-shirt, with my bright red platform Crocs, okay, so I look like hell, and it was definitely the Real Housewives of that city kind of a restaurant. And we got stuck next to this table of the Real Housewives from that city, and I, five minutes of eavesdropping to their table, and I was, "Brad, I fucking cannot. If this is what having friendships like this is supposed to be about in a city, thank God we don't have kids. I could not." All they did was talk about, oh, it was how's your mom, and then the only reason they would listen is if their mom was sick. Oh, how's your kid? If you talked about your kids doing great, they didn't know what to say, so then they said, "Oh, well, she's struggling with this. Oh my god, mine too. Everyone, the conversation only kept going, and you were only rewarded for what you said if it was all negative and you were a victim and something was wrong. My goodness, you know what my favorite conversations with my friends are, is what they celebrate. Oh, I slayed this. Yeah, I bet you did. I love those conversations. So, anyways, but that's how people are rewarded, and then they get rewarded for putting themselves last because they're definitely looked at badly if they put themselves first by those people. But I would say there's a whole group of people like me who are ready to celebrate you putting yourself first. So, and Jamie, that's what Jamie wants.Brad Crowell 19:58  And Jamie. Absolutely. One thing I loved that Jamie said was that we are all born with a knowing, which acts as like a natural internal compass. This is very foreign idea to me. I did not grow up with anyone explaining that I could look inwardly and I could understand what I'm feeling and if something is right or wrong for me. You know, it's just not how I was raised.Lesley Logan 20:22  So I wasn't raised that way, but I know I had this, and that's why I felt like a weirdo, and that's why I was getting like I would get in trouble because the inner knowing was the compass. I don't actually know where East and West is, but I know what felt good, and that what people were wanting me to do did not feel good. Yeah, I didn't know how to do it. I didn't know what I was doing, so I was just.Brad Crowell 20:39  I definitely wasn't a people-pleaser. I was definitely the rebel, and I did the rebel. Lesley Logan 20:44  Yeah, I would say you have an inner knowing. You wore ridiculous clothes every single day. Brad Crowell 20:48  Yeah, but it was a little bit of like an FU to the man in a sense, as a teenager.Lesley Logan 20:51  Yeah, because there's an inner knowing that you that you wanted to do that.Brad Crowell 20:53  I did want to do that, and I was I always looked out to see how I could stick a thorn in the side of the process without actually getting in trouble, yeah, that's how I rolled. I didn't really want to get in trouble, but I really wanted to cause trouble. Does that make sense? Lesley Logan 21:07  You just wanted to see how far you could do without being in trouble because you wanted to feel like you were breaking the rules without breaking the rules. Brad Crowell 21:13  Yeah, yeah, pretty much. Yeah, you know. But anyway, this inner knowing that Jamie's talking about, she explained because of the contrast of life, society trains us to look outside of ourselves for pretty much everything, right? I mean, the irony is that we have a podcast telling you to look inwardly, but I think that it is just natural for us to look outside of ourselves. Our our parents, our church, our work, our friends, our siblings-you know-we're constantly looking to others for approval, I was the same way, especially when I was younger.Lesley Logan 21:43  Oh, we're raised to look at other people for approval, especially women. But I'm sure you, too, because even the Boy Scouts are the troop leaders going to give you these badges. Did you do a good enough job? Everything is to get other people's opinions of you to matter, but that's not whose opinion matters.Brad Crowell 21:58  Yeah, and seeking that external validation causes us to lose the basic sense of can we even trust our own decisions? What do we actually want for us? We don't even know what we want for us most of the time. Well, especially when we were growing up, what we wanted for us was what our parents told us we wanted for us, and then and then like somewhere in there, we're supposed to be oh now I get to choose what I want for me, you know, and and and we don't shift. Oh, you know, we're still looking to.Lesley Logan 22:26  Well, you never got to practice it.Brad Crowell 22:28  Right. Yeah, and and her argument is it's very easy for us to get back to looking internally, and she says that there's a trust that gets built when you sit with yourself, and she was talking about it's not even complicated in the sense of this meditation idea that I could never wrap my head around. And she said, "You know, you don't need to do any anything like that. It could just be five minutes of silence drinking a cup of coffee, where you just have a moment of you with you.Lesley Logan 22:57  Oh my god! I forgot my AirPods yesterday on the dog walk.Brad Crowell 22:59  Weird. Lesley Logan 23:00  I know. I loved it.Brad Crowell 23:03  Oh, that was like an hour. Yeah. Well, good for you. Lesley Logan 23:06  I mean, here's the deal. I loved the first half, and then the second half, I was done with it myself because I'm in my head all day, you know. So I didn't need more time. But so I did listen to a podcast without headphones, and well, the neighbors get to listen to my my true crime. But the first half was just like such a nice. I could hear the birds and all the things, and I was. This is wonderful. Maybe I should just not put them in until halfway.Brad Crowell 23:28  I mean, I love that.Lesley Logan 23:29  It's a it's a good intention.Brad Crowell 23:31  There's value. There's value.Lesley Logan 23:32  I will say you don't even have to do that. Five minutes is actually not that long, and you you sit out on the front porch, you know, or you could walk around a block, or you could just walk across the street. But you should get outside and be quiet.Brad Crowell 23:46  So if you want a feeling of coming home to yourself, start to look inward and see what that means. You know?Lesley Logan 23:52  I'm all. Here's the thing: she does make it sound so simple in a way that I did challenge her. Is it really that simple? Hold on. Is there? I mean, I was Jamie, people aren't gonna think it's that simple, but I think we overcomplicate things, and people have overcomplicated things to sell you something. And she's, it's actually, it is actually simple. And I think sometimes we think, well, then it must not work. But I really did believe, I do, I do trust what she had to say at the end. You know what? I bet you it is that simple, and we just want it to be complicated because then we can't do it. Brad Crowell 24:24  Yeah, I mean, but what is it? You know, when you're, what does it mean to look inwardLesley Logan 24:29  To listen to yourself and not other people?Brad Crowell 24:31  Yeah.Lesley Logan 24:31  Oh gosh, I mean, I think it means that you. Well, this is what people won't want to do, and they feel like they're going to let people down because they're doing things for themselves and not for other people. But you, the only we can let people down is if you are actually incapable of being empathetic and loving and and taking and. Brad Crowell 24:47  No, that's not what I mean. What's the practice of looking inward? Lesley Logan 24:50  I think that's personal.Brad Crowell 24:52  Yeah, but we have to give them an actual tangible. Lesley Logan 24:55  Well, I think Jamie did it in in the podcast. I think it's in these takeaways.Brad Crowell 24:59  So I'm gonna tell you that sitting with yourself and actually not distracting yourself and having a moment to think, that's.Lesley Logan 25:10  Yeah, but I'm not gonna tell you right now because I'm looking ahead.Brad Crowell 25:12  All right, well stick around. We'll be right back. Because that was a great teaser.Brad Crowell 25:15  Woo! Welcome back. Let's dig into those Be It Action Items that we had with Jamie Lerner on the last episode, what bold, executable, intrinsic, or targeted action items can we take away from Lesley's convo with her? She said, "Hey, laugh when you judge others, because what that means is that we're actually judging ourselves because we're projecting. We are projecting, and you know, take it from a psychotherapist to understand the technical elements of all those things, she says it simply means we're just projecting how we feel about ourselves onto others because we're judging them. And what that means is we are not connected to ourselves. We are not looking inward on ourselves at all in that moment. And she said it takes a little bit of practice, but when you start to identify that you're judging others, you should laugh at yourself. So I thought that was really funny. Go laugh with yourself, not at yourself.Lesley Logan 26:07  Yeah, yeah. No, it's like, hahahaha, I clearly want that. Or there's something about that. How that's so funny. I didn't realize it's something I wanted, or that's something that there's something about that I desire. Or there's you know I actually don't think it's bad to be jealous, I think it is bad to judge yourself for being jealous and not actually taking a moment to know what about that thing is making me have the grass is greener? Oh, there's something about that that you want. Maybe not that exact thing, but there's an energy or an emotion or something. And so I think taking the time to notice what you're jealous of, or we have a couple solo episodes about comparison. I think just came out. Anyways, about comparison, and we compare ourselves when the clarity isn't clear about what we want. And when clarity is clear, you're gonna be more likely to see that someone else doing something has nothing to do with your ability to do something. But when you are comparing yourself to someone else, and that jealousy is there. Then it's a sign, like, "Oh, I'm not clear on what I want. How silly of me to be so hard on myself when I obviously haven't finished planning."Brad Crowell 27:11  Yeah, she said, "It's an observation of how often you're disconnected in any given moment, and the realization and laughter allows you to reconnect with yourself. So there's no time to judge yourself for judging others. But what about you?Lesley Logan 27:25  Well, this goes into the question you had about going inward. She said, and I'll go back to the other things that she said, set aside 10 minutes every day. That's not even a half a percent of your day. Set aside 10 minutes every day, or just little moments here and there to get tuned back into yourself. And she said, "You can sit quietly and notice how often we're unkind and cruel to ourselves in a way we would never speak to another person. And she said, "In this time, ask yourself questions that are lovingly curious. Oh, I wonder why I am so interested in what that person is doing, or I wonder why I'm so intrigued by that, or I wonder what would allow me to be able to do something like that. Have some loving curiosity about yourself instead of having demanding immediate solutions. Go of needing an answer and just asking is enough. We can go back to episode one.Brad Crowell 28:11  Wow.Lesley Logan 28:11  Episode one is about just being like it is. Brad Crowell 28:15  I wonder.Lesley Logan 28:16  I wonder. You know, and so, opening a loop in your brain, so that you can oh, yeah. I don't think they can read. It's really hard.Brad Crowell 28:25  It's hard.Lesley Logan 28:26  It's hard. Brad Crowell 28:27  If you're watching on YouTube, we are trying to. There's my 1/3 tattoo on my hand, and it's on for me to see, which makes it very difficult for you to see. So she said, practice this moment by moment, which I also love because.Brad Crowell 28:39  Wait, what did she say?Lesley Logan 28:40  She said, "Practice this moment by moment", and that's something I also love because we are so hard on ourselves to be able to do this all the time. No, you do little bits, and over time they add up to lots of bits, and then it takes more of your day. And she said, "Most important," she said, "Know yourself, love yourself, and trust yourself, and laugh a lot with yourself." And I do think I remember my parents always saying, "Laughter brings healing to the bones." Brad Crowell 29:05  It's the best medicine. Lesley Logan 29:07  It's the best medicine. It's a great core workout. So I couldn't agree more.Brad Crowell 29:10  That's what they said?Lesley Logan 29:11  Well, they didn't talk about the core workout, but I added that part. They would take a lesson, go, "Laughter brings healing to the bones."Brad Crowell 29:17  Wow. I don't think my parents did that.Lesley Logan 29:21  We had very different childhoods. Brad Crowell 29:23  They just tickle monster us.Lesley Logan 29:24  You you had a very consistent one. Mine was a little bit of a roller coaster.Brad Crowell 29:28  Healing to the bones.Lesley Logan 29:32  You know what's something so funny is I was in my Pilates session today, and my teacher Kim was talking to these other two women who were in the group, and they said they said something. He goes, "No, you're not weak. You're impatient." And I laughed so hard as, and they're like, "Oh, I have to put that on my wall. You're not weak. You're just impatient." Yeah, you guys are just expecting yourself to be good about something you just learned yesterday. You're not. It's not a weakness. It's like you're expecting something to happen tomorrow when you just learned how to do it yesterday. You know. So be kind. Have some loving curiosity.Brad Crowell 30:10  Yeah. 10 minutes will do that. Set aside.Lesley Logan 30:13  I'm Lesley Logan,Brad Crowell 30:13  and I'm Brad Crowell.Lesley Logan 30:14  You're amazing. Go send this to a friend as they hear it. Go laugh with yourself.

What happens when a health problem keeps getting treated but the deeper questions never get answered? In this episode of the Health Detective Podcast, Michele Scarlet sits down with Diane Dahi, an FDNP, integrative health coach, massage therapist, and personal trainer, to explore a deeply personal health journey spanning decades of bodywork, wellness, chronic health challenges, and Functional Diagnostic Nutrition. Diane shares how a skin condition that was repeatedly dismissed as eczema was eventually diagnosed as skin cancer after more than 10 years of questions. That experience changed the way she approached her health, leading her to explore Natural Health, whole foods, product quality, and becoming a stronger advocate for herself. Years later, another major health crisis left Diane hospitalized with a serious spinal infection, spinal abscesses, surgery, and months of recovery. After extensive antibiotics, she began looking deeper into her gut health and eventually discovered FDN. Through Functional Lab Testing, Diane explored patterns involving gut dysbiosis, mold exposure, stress and hormones, and other health factors. She also discusses brain fog, stubborn midsection weight gain, ADHD symptoms, nervous system regulation, detox-supportive habits, and the lifestyle changes that became part of her ongoing health transformation. Diane explains why she believes midlife women should pay closer attention when something in their body does not feel right instead of automatically labeling it as stress, aging, or hormones. She shares her experience with mold testing, GI Map testing, lifestyle changes, infrared sauna, movement, sleep, sunlight, nutrition, and creating sustainable wellness habits. Most importantly, Diane shares the mindset that now guides her health journey: when you encounter a roadblock, pause, turn inward, listen to your body, and use it as a guide. This conversation is about Functional Health, root cause thinking, gut health, holistic wellness, health advocacy, and creating a healthier and more intentional life.

Your spouse says the affair is over. They've answered your questions. You may have the timeline, the passwords, the location access and the information you spent months searching for. So why don't you feel safe? And why can't you trust them yet? After infidelity and marital betrayal, knowing the truth and feeling safe are not the same thing. In this episode of Marriage Redesigned, Lisa explains why betrayal trauma can leave your nervous system on alert even after the secrets have been exposed—and why telling the truth is only the beginning of rebuilding trust. You'll discover: • Why learning the truth can initially make a betrayed spouse feel less safe, not more • Why disclosure isn't the finish line for affair recovery • Why your body may still react even when your mind knows the betrayal has ended • Why triggers don't automatically mean your spouse is unsafe today • Why the unfaithful spouse cannot simply announce, “I'm safe now” • How honesty, transparency, accountability and empathy create evidence of change • Why small, consistent actions—or “micro-repairs”—matter when rebuilding trust • Why consistency is often more powerful than big promises and dramatic gestures • How to recognize genuine character transformation after infidelity • Why the betrayed spouse doesn't have to force trust before they're ready Lisa also speaks directly to the spouse who caused the betrayal: Your spouse doesn't need bigger promises. They need consistent evidence. Trust isn't rebuilt because you say you've changed. It begins to grow when your spouse repeatedly experiences a different version of you. And for the betrayed spouse, healing doesn't require pretending you're ready to trust simply because your spouse is finally doing the right things. You can acknowledge progress and still need time. Because truth opens the door to rebuilding trust. Consistency is what walks through it. If you and your spouse are trying to heal after an affair, pornography, sexual betrayal or other marital betrayal, this episode will help you understand why safety must come before trust can truly grow. Safety before intimacy. Truth before trust. Healing before rebuilding. Character before comfort. God heals people. Transformed people heal marriages.

Author Louise O'Neill was 37-years old, when her five-year relationship suddenly came to an end in January 2023. Overnight, the future she had imagined for herself with marriage, children and a home by the sea in Wicklow, completely disappeared. Feeling heartbroken and lost, O'Neill went on a mission to heal herself and regain some of her shattered confidence. She took almost a year off work and threw herself into an array of workshops, retreats and unconventional activities. Eventually O'Neill was ready to date again and so began a year-long experiment, which took her on more than 100 dates, with men across Dublin, London, Paris and New York. She documents this exciting and at times hilarious experience in her new memoir, A Bigger Life. In today's episode, O'Neill joins Róisín Ingle to talk about her recovery from heartbreak and how dating helped her discover more about herself and what really makes her happy. In this wide-ranging conversation the pair also discuss the best way to approach dating apps, the pressure of the biological clock and what it really takes to make a bigger life. But first Irish Times features writer Nadine O'Regan is here to discuss some of the cultural stories that caught her eye this week, including new music from Bono's daughter Jordan Hewson and the reaction to Sharon Horgan's new series Youth.

What happens when the trauma you survived as a kid splits you into parts you don't even know are there?In this episode I sit down with AnnaLynne McCord, the 90210 star who went public about her assault years before Me Too and later revealed her dissociative identity disorder diagnosis, to explore why childhood trauma fractures your identity.We talk about why she was first diagnosed as bipolar, how her DID diagnosis cracked open memories she'd buried, what it was like to have co-consciousness with different parts of herself, and how she went from 90% dysregulation to 90% peace.We also explore why Hollywood warned her that honesty would end her career, the 70-year-old woman who finally accepted herself after hearing AnnaLynne speak, why boys are taught to shut their hearts down, and the one thing she believes most people spend their lives avoiding.But underneath the headlines, this conversation is about something much more personal.Why we build a version of ourselves to survive a world that felt unsafe. How a tough, fearless exterior can hide someone who believes they're weak. And what it actually takes to stop running from what you feel.Because the fracture came from an absence of love. And the only thing that puts you back together is love.AnnaLynne McCord is an actress best known for her role in 90210, and a longtime advocate against human trafficking who has spoken at the United Nations.

What happens when the issues you've spent your life fighting for suddenly become the world your children have to live in?In this episode, Katia sits down with Jumaane D. Williams, New York City Public Advocate, activist, husband, and proud girl dad, for a deeply personal conversation about how fatherhood has changed the way he sees his work, himself, and the world he hopes to leave his daughters.Jumaane opens up about having to explain racism to his daughter at just three years old, intentionally surrounding his girls with representation that reflects their beauty, and raising them to understand both the realities of the world and their own power within it. He also shares his family's harrowing experience with cervical cancer, pregnancy, premature birth and the NICU—and why that experience reinforced for him the importance of listening to and believing Black women in healthcare. The conversation also turns inward as Jumaane reflects on therapy, fatherhood, male vulnerability, positive masculinity and breaking generational trauma—including his belief that successful parenting isn't about making no mistakes, but making new ones instead of passing the same wounds from one generation to the next. A vulnerable conversation about fatherhood, racism, Black maternal health, raising daughters, representation, masculinity, mental health and healing generational trauma.Follow Jumaane D.

Charlene Quint survived 21 years of an abusive and toxic marriage. Today she is a family law attorney and the author of the award-winning book, Overcoming the Narcissist, Sociopath, Psychopath, and Other Domestic Abusers: The Comprehensive Handbook to Recognize, Remove and Recover From Abuse. Charlene shares critical advice about the healing process that comes in the wake of escaping an abusive situation. 100 percent of women in abusive relationships, she says, suffer from PTSD, and the healing cannot begin until they are in a safe place and free from the abuse. Importantly, women must address the lies that they have been taught to believe and replace those lies with truth. Charlene also shares how God helped her find peace, wholeness, and restoration after leaving her abusive marriage, and how others can do the same! TAKEAWAYS Abusers will take the time to get to know you so they can hook you emotionally Choose someone who will be a strong, equal partner in life - do not marry a “project” or a “charity case” Think of yourself as a queen who deserves to have a king to rule alongside her - an equal Healing starts when you leave the abuse behind

If you're living with MS and wondering what you can do beyond simply managing symptoms, this episode is a powerful place to start.Pam Bartha was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis at just 28 after losing vision in one eye and developing neurological symptoms. She was told MS was incurable and that progressive disability was likely. Instead, she began investigating what might be contributing to illness—and rebuilding her health from multiple directions. She now describes herself as having lived MS-free for 37 years.In this conversation, we explore why Pam believes parasites and other chronic infections deserve greater attention in MS, the nutrition changes that became foundational to her recovery, and how the mind-body connection—including stress, mindset, purpose, and community—fits into a much larger healing picture.You'll also learn what Pam wishes every newly diagnosed MS patient knew, why she believes recovery requires looking beyond any single intervention, and how to begin taking a more active role in your own health without becoming overwhelmed.If you have MS—or love someone who does—start here.Learn from and connect with Pam Bartha: www.livediseasefree.comJoin my free email community for practical healing tools, research, survivor stories, and encouragement between episodes:https://TheRenegadeNutritionist.comThis podcast is for educational purposes only and does not offer medical advice.

Discover how holistic health practitioner Sharon Greenspan reversed her advanced ankylosing spondylitis not through medical protocols, but through mindset shifts, metaphysics, and somatic body connection. In this insightful episode of MindBody Medicine for Self-Healers hosted by Sarah Dawkins, Sharon shares her powerful healing journey from trauma, depression and physical rigidity to total self-trust, emotional freedom, and inner peace. Learn why chronic symptoms carry hidden wisdom, how to shift from victimhood to empowerment, and why changing your perspective is more powerful than looking for a quick fix.Key Information and Time Stamps05:12 The Metaphysics of the Spine: Sharon realised her spine was literally building a physical backbone because she lacked an emotional "backbone" in life, having been raised to be seen and not heard. Through yoga, mindset shifts, and letting go of rigid patterns, she avoided spinal fusion and can still perform a full backbend.12:39 Moving from Symptoms to Root Causes: Instead of defaulting to quick fixes, pills, or obsessing over fighting symptoms, Sharon emphasises tuning into the body to understand what symptoms are trying to communicate.14:21 Reframing Chronic Pain and Nervous System Regulation: For individuals struggling with nervous system dysregulation or chronic pain, Sharon suggests starting small by anchoring awareness to neutral body parts with few nerve endings, like the earlobe or tip of the nose, before moving toward a state of relaxation.27:22 The Power of Being "Dulu" (Delusional): Sharon and Sarah discuss the concept of being "dulu"—visualising and feeling the future you want in your body (the "what") without worrying about the logistical "how," as the universe often brings the how in unexpected ways.30:54 Practical Self-Healing Exercise: For anyone newly diagnosed or struggling with chronic pain, Sharon recommends sitting quietly, breathing, and noticing the physical sensations in the body—observing qualities like temperature, texture, and colour without labelling them as good or bad.Sharon's bio Sharon Greenspan works with people who have “tried everything” to heal—diets, supplements, protocols—and still aren't seeing results, helping them to finally understand why.After reversing her own ankylosing spondylitis and overcoming years of anger and depression, she now blends energy medicine, emotional healing and nutrition to guide deep, lasting transformation.A Board Certified Holistic Health Practitioner, Nutritionist, Life Coach, and international speaker, she helps clients break free from emotional eating, regulate their nervous systems, and return to self-trust, vitality, and inner peace.Connect with Sharonwww.SharonGreenspan.comhttps://www.instagram.com/wild.successhttps://www.facebook.com/wildsuccess

Együtt megoldjuk."En: Zsófia took Ákos's hand, looked into his eyes, and said, "Trust me. We'll solve it together."Hu: A szavai, mintha varázserővel bírtak volna.En: Her words seemed to have a magical power.Hu: Ákos hirtelen nyugodtabbnak érezte magát, és mindketten egy hullámhosszon kezdtek dolgozni.En: Ákos suddenly felt calmer, and both began working in harmony.Hu: Az esemény hevében Ákos beszélni kezdett Zsófiának a félelmeiről és a családi nyomásról, ami folyton súlyosbította terheit.En: In the heat of the moment, Ákos started to talk to Zsófia about his fears and the family pressure that constantly aggravated his burdens.Hu: Zsófia megértette, mennyit jelent neki ez a pillanat, és nem minősítette, csak hallgatta.En: Zsófia understood how much this moment meant to him, and she didn't judge, just listened.Hu: A krízis végére közelebb kerültek egymáshoz.En: By the end of the crisis, they had grown closer.Hu: Ákos új fényt vetett Zsófia szemében; egyszerre volt törékeny és erős.En: Ákos shone a new light in Zsófia's eyes; he was both fragile and strong.Hu: Zsófia mélyebb érzéseket fedezett fel, melyeket eddig csak festményein keresett.En: Zsófia discovered deeper feelings, which she had previously only sought in her paintings.Hu: Aznap este, ahogy a nap narancssárgán festette be Budapest égboltját, elhatározták, hogy a jövőben is együtt dolgoznak.En: That evening, as the sun painted the sky of Budapest orange, they decided they would continue working together in the future.Hu: Az őszi levelek alatt a kórház előtt Ákos elégedetten sóhajtott.En: Under the autumn leaves in front of the hospital, Ákos sighed contentedly.Hu: Előtette a telefonját, felhívta családját és elmesélt nekik mindent.En: He took out his phone, called his family, and told them everything.Hu: Rájött, hogy a sebezhetőség gyakran a legnagyobb erősség, a kapcsolat pedig az, ami igazán gazdagítja az életét.En: He realized that vulnerability is often the greatest strength, and connection is what truly enriches life.Hu: Zsófia pedig megtalálta azt az inspirációt, amire igazából vágyott.En: Zsófia found the inspiration she really longed for.Hu: Két különböző világ találkozását, ami a legszebb festményei sorába kerülhetett volna.En: The meeting of two different worlds, which could have been among her most beautiful paintings.

What happens when you're living with very real symptoms—but your tests look “normal,” treatments aren't working, and you leave medical appointments feeling unheard?In this episode of the Functionally Enlightened Podcast, Dr. Sharon Surita sits down with Cyndii Sinex, public health practitioner and founder of the Chronic Illness Hotline, to discuss one of the most difficult parts of chronic illness: navigating a healthcare system when you don't feel believed, understood, or adequately supported.Cyndii's own experience with misdiagnosis and medical dismissal helped inspire the Chronic Illness Hotline—a free, text-based peer-support initiative created for people living with chronic illness, chronic pain, disability, injury, neurodivergence, and those still searching for answers. Sharon and Cyndii discuss the exhaustion of constantly advocating for yourself, the financial and physical burden of repeated medical appointments, and what can happen when chronically ill people remain in a persistent state of stress while trying to find answers. Most importantly, they explore why validation and peer connection matter—even when they don't provide a diagnosis or treatment. In this episode, we discuss:- Why Cyndii created the Chronic Illness Hotline- Medical gaslighting, misdiagnosis, and feeling dismissed- What it feels like when your tests are “normal” but you know something isn't right- The exhaustion of constantly advocating for yourself- Why validation can be so powerful in chronic illness- Medical bias and how it can affect the patient experience- The pressure to become the “perfect patient”- Why a treatment that works for one person may not work for another- Medication side effects and the importance of listening to patients- Toxic positivity—and why good intentions can still hurt- How pushing beyond someone's baseline can contribute to overexertion- Why caregivers need support, too- The role of peer support alongside professional healthcare- The future of the Chronic Illness Hotline- How individuals and organizations can support its relaunchThe conversation also explores healthcare bias and Cyndii's vision for developing resources that better serve communities whose experiences may be overlooked within traditional healthcare settings. For anyone living with implant illness, dysautonomia, POTS, autoimmune disease, chronic pain, invisible illness, neurodivergence, or unexplained chronic symptoms, this conversation is an important reminder that needing support doesn't mean you've failed at healing.Sometimes you need answers.Sometimes you need treatment.And sometimes you simply need someone willing to say:“I hear you.”About the Chronic Illness HotlineThe Chronic Illness Hotline is working toward relaunching a free, text-based peer-support service serving people affected by chronic illness, chronic pain, injury, disability, and neurodivergence—including people who remain undiagnosed or self-identify as living with chronic health challenges. Plans also include expanding its resource database to help connect individuals with practitioners and support services.

Episode 15 ~What Happens When Grief Becomes a Song?What happens when someone who has spent years supporting grieving people suddenly finds herself living the loss she understands professionally?In November 2024, Victoria's longtime partner died suddenly. As a music therapist and grief counselor working in hospice care, she knew the language and theories of grief. But experiencing it personally brought an entirely different understanding.During a four-month leave, a lyric came to her during an intense grief burst: “Why does everything have to make sense when you're gone?” One song grew into The Blue Album, a deeply personal musical project shaped around William Worden's Tasks of Mourning.Victoria and Teresa talk about grieving a partner, why tears do not mean someone is “stuck,” and how music can give emotions somewhere to go when words are difficult to find. Victoria also shares simple ways people can engage with music, even without musical experience, and why continuing a bond with someone who died can be part of moving forward rather than leaving them behind.About Victoria: Victoria is a music therapist and grief counselor working in hospice/palliative care. She is also conducting doctoral research exploring music, grief, songwriting, and heartbeat song recordings. As the artist SH3, she created The Blue Album from her own experience of partner loss.In This Episode● How losing her longtime partner changed Victoria's understanding of grief as a professional● How one lyric during a grief burst became The Blue Album● William Worden's Tasks of Mourning and why grief is not a linear process● How intentional listening, improvisation, and songwriting can support emotional expression● What continuing bonds can look like after someone dies● How Victoria's grief influenced her hospice work and doctoral researchWhat You'll Take Away● Tears are not proof that you are moving backward.● Grief does not follow a neat sequence or timeline.● Music can help express feelings that are difficult to name.● You do not need musical training to use music meaningfully.● Healing does not require ending your connection with someone you love.Memorable Quotes● Victoria: “You lose your best friend.”● Victoria: “These emotions are just a human representation of the connection that we had.”● Victoria: “Why does everything have to make sense when you're gone?”● Victoria: “You don't need any music experience at all.

What becomes possible when we learn to imagine from presence rather than fear? In Part 1 of this series, Tara explores spiritual imagination as a powerful capacity for healing, transformation and awakening. When we are caught in stress, fear or limiting beliefs, our imagination contracts and reinforces a world of separation. Yet when grounded in mindful presence, imagination can open us to new possibilities—to our basic goodness, our capacity to change and our potential to create a more loving world. Through teachings, stories and guided reflections, Tara explores how mindfulness, prayer and imagination can help us loosen the grip of old narratives, heal self-judgment and envision new ways of relating to ourselves and others. We discover how learning to trust what is deepest in us can bring wise hope, resilience and greater freedom to our lives. Ultimately, spiritual imagination invites us to sense beyond who we have believed ourselves to be and begin living from the love, awareness and goodness that are already here. In this talk, Tara explores: ✨ Spiritual imagination as a pathway to healing and transformation ✨ Moving from fear-based thinking toward possibility and wise hope ✨ Trusting our basic goodness ✨ Using mindfulness and prayer to awaken imagination ✨ Healing limiting beliefs and self-judgment ✨ Imagining more loving relationships and a more compassionate world   Our introduction music is from "Opening" by Adrienne Torf, © 2025 ABT Music

This week, Jake and Bob continue their conversation about the wounds that can form between parents and children. They discuss how legitimate human needs can become disordered when we no longer trust that those needs will be met and how these wounds can then quietly shape the ways we relate to our spouses, children, friends, and parents. Bob shares how his mother's childhood wounds affected him and how his own protective responses later surfaced in his marriage. Jake also reflects on his relationship with work, his struggle to receive help, and discovering the ways he unknowingly carried patterns from one generation to the next. Recognizing these patterns in our own lives can open the door to greater freedom, healing, and deeper relationships.    Key Points: Sin is contrary to what it means to be fully human and can diminish our capacity to live according to our nature. The family is the primary environment in which a child learns what it means to be human. Wounds can come from things that should have happened but didn't or from things that should not have happened but did. Healthy desire is an essential part of love and human maturation. Human needs give rise to desires, while unmet and wounded needs can lead those desires to become disordered. Wounds can move through generations as parents' unresolved wounds influence their children and those children later carry similar patterns into their own relationships. We can also wound our parents when our own protective patterns cause us to withdraw, become overly busy, fail to communicate, or resist receiving their love. Healing does not necessarily mean constantly digging into the past but can involve noticing subtle movements in the heart and giving the Lord permission to reveal what needs attention.   Resources:  Episode 125: Forgiveness & Transformation    Chapters: 00:00 Introduction 01:16 Becoming Fully Human 06:55 Our Families Form Us First 09:05 Understanding Desire, Needs, and Wounds 16:18 Examples of An Anatomy of A Wound 30:08 Seven Fundamental Needs 40:17 Wounding Our Parents   Connect with Restore the Glory:  Instagram: @restoretheglorypodcast  Twitter: @RestoreGloryPod Facebook: Restore the Glory Podcast   Never miss out on an episode by hitting the subscribe button right now!

Manifestation without shadow work is dangerous, because desires born from old wounds carry the same patterns into a bigger prison. Lorin describes shadow work as going into the mud and bringing light into the parts of ourselves we would rather avoid. The episode explores where our desires really come from, how conditioning fuels false urgency, and why receiving what we want before we are ready can become the greatest misery. Lorin offers three questions to discern soul from ego, then shares research on how positive fantasies can slow progress and how visualizing the process improves results. Listeners come away with a practical path to aligned manifestation: pairing clear goals with honest inner work so they grow into what they seek and enjoy the journey.Mentioned in this episode:Healing the Mother Wound - Brand New Edition A 2.5-hour live online workshop with Lorin Krenn

You are what you think spiritually, emotionally, physically, and in every other way. The thoughts you hold in your mind will eventually become who you are in every area of life. That is why it is so important to watch over your thought life. The Word says to be renewed in the spirit of your mind. We cannot let our thought life run out of control and do nothing about it. We must first make a decision to seek God until we receive answers.  

What started as a mission to save the bees has become something much bigger. 4RBees co-founder Brent Knudsen joins Michael Jaco for a fascinating conversation about the PureWave® Cell, quantum-field technology and the newly published three-year research examining what happens when honeybee colonies are exposed to the PureWave environment. For years, 4RBees has reported remarkable results from beekeepers using PureWave Cells in their hives. Now there is published research to examine. A three-year independent study led by Dr. Magda Havas reported measurable differences involving overwinter survival, colony strength, honey production, queen replacement and hygiene behavior in the studied bees. 4RBees describes the research as an important scientific milestone for a technology it has been developing and field-testing for years. But Michael and Brent take the conversation even further. They explore the PureWave Cell's unusual design combining sacred geometry and neodymium magnets, the electromagnetic environment surrounding living organisms, and the possibility that lessons learned from the bees could open a much larger conversation about environmental wellness for humans, animals and plants.

LIVE from ILADS: Tick Boot Camp sits down with Mindy Tobin Daigle, MSN, APRN-BC, a nurse practitioner whose approach to Lyme disease and complex chronic illness was profoundly shaped by her own experience as a patient. Before treating people with Lyme disease, Mindy lived it. After years of misdiagnosis, she was diagnosed with Lyme disease in 2010 following earlier tick exposures. Her illness became multisystemic and severe, affecting her heart, brain, joints, gastrointestinal system, bladder, skin, muscles, and more. At her sickest, she describes being bed-bound, wheelchair-bound, experiencing seizures and aphasia, and dependent on others for basic care. That experience gave her a mission: become the healthcare provider she needed when she was sick and searching for answers. This conversation goes far beyond Lyme disease treatment. Mindy and Tick Boot Camp explore medical gaslighting, listening to patients, compassion versus empathy, realistic expectations for chronic illness recovery, the importance of self-compassion, finding your physical and emotional "edges," and why progress is often measured in inches rather than feet. This interview was recorded live at the ILADS conference, so you may hear some of the energy and background activity of the event throughout the conversation. A Nurse Practitioner Who Became the Patient Mindy was already a trained medical professional when she became seriously ill. Her first reported tick bite occurred in South Africa in 1997, followed by additional exposures while she was working as a nurse in Minnesota and Wisconsin. Despite her medical training and access to healthcare, Lyme disease wasn't initially identified as the explanation for her growing collection of symptoms. Mindy describes repeatedly mentioning her history of tick bites only to have the possibility dismissed. Eventually, during a severe pain crisis, physician Dr. Ted Gillespie spent significant time listening to her history and asked a simple question: What about Lyme disease? Testing through Labcorp produced a positive Western blot, but Mindy says that even with that result, she continued encountering resistance to the diagnosis. Eventually, she found her way to Dr. Patricia Salvato in Houston and began treatment. Becoming the Practitioner She Needed Mindy made herself a promise during her illness: If she recovered, she would become the practitioner she had needed when she was lost and sick. That commitment eventually brought her to ILADS. At her first ILADS conference in 2013, Mindy heard the late Dr. Christine Green speak. The following week, she cold-called Dr. Green's office in San Francisco and asked if she could shadow her. That decision turned into a professional relationship lasting more than a decade. Mindy says her personal development as a Lyme patient became inseparable from her professional development as a clinician. From Sympathy to Empathy to Compassion One of the most powerful themes in this conversation is the evolution from sympathy to empathy to compassion. Mindy describes having sympathy as a young nurse and developing greater empathy with experience. After becoming seriously ill herself, she says she developed something deeper: compassion. Her definition of compassion centers on being willing to sit with another person's pain without judgment, interference, or adding to their suffering. For a Lyme patient who has spent years being dismissed, questioned, rushed, or told symptoms are unexplained, simply encountering a practitioner who genuinely listens can be meaningful. What Compassionate Lyme Care Looks Like Compassion isn't simply being nice to patients. For Mindy, it changes how she practices. When a patient arrives overwhelmed, crying, angry, frustrated, struggling with technology, or simply exhausted from managing chronic illness, her first goal isn't to rush through a checklist. She meets the patient where they are. She tells patients: We're not in a rush. The goal is to take the time needed to understand the person in front of her and determine what needs attention. That approach can be particularly important for patients with complex chronic illnesses who may arrive at an appointment carrying years of symptoms, medical records, failed treatments, fear, and frustration. Medical Gaslighting & the Importance of Listening Mindy also discusses the medical dismissal she experienced during her own illness and what patients often describe as medical gaslighting. The conversation explores why healthcare professionals may dismiss patient experiences even when a patient presents with a complicated history or evidence that warrants further investigation. Mindy emphasizes something deceptively simple: Remain curious. A practitioner doesn't have to immediately know every answer. But when something doesn't make sense, curiosity can keep the diagnostic process moving instead of shutting the patient down. For Mindy, listening and believing that a patient is genuinely experiencing what they describe are foundational to the therapeutic relationship. The Last Five Minutes Mindy has developed a practice she calls The Last 5 Minutes: 8 Concepts and Contemplations in Healing. After spending most of an appointment discussing symptoms, medical decision-making, treatment, and care planning, she reserves the final minutes for something different: Healing. It's a moment to put the metaphorical pencils down and talk heart-to-heart about what the patient is experiencing beyond laboratory results and treatment protocols. Her eight concepts and contemplations include: Keyhole Sunset Progress is made in inches, not feet Awareness, Acceptance, Compassion Pain is Information This is your Hero's Journey Healing is possible, with or without a cure Find a micron of joy and build on it Do what you need to do, rest when you need to rest, force nothing Mindy's original essay on the eight concepts offers a deeper exploration of the philosophy she discusses during this interview. Progress Is Made in Inches, Not Feet People with chronic Lyme disease are understandably in a hurry. They want their health back. They want their careers, relationships, independence, energy, and lives back. But recovery doesn't always move at the speed a patient wants. Mindy prepares patients for the possibility of a long process in which progress isn't perfectly linear. There can be improvements followed by setbacks. Instead of interpreting every setback as failure, she encourages patients to recognize that regression can sometimes occur within a larger pattern of progression. Mindy expands on this philosophy in Progress Comes in Inches, Not Feet. Self-Compassion During Lyme Recovery Chronic illness can create a destructive cycle of self-blame. Patients may think: Why aren't I better yet? Did I do something wrong? Why can't my body handle this? Why can't I do what I used to do? Mindy explains that even an excellent medical treatment plan doesn't automatically resolve the patient's relationship with themselves. Healing may also require learning to stop being at war with your own body. That doesn't mean giving up on improvement. It means learning how to pursue improvement without constantly punishing yourself for where you are today. Her writing on self-compassion and healing explores this balance between accepting present limitations and continuing to move forward. Finding Your Edges One of Mindy's most useful metaphors is finding your edges. After extensive treatment, she reached a point where she could no longer tolerate additional treatment in the same way. She learned to recognize the boundaries of what her body could currently handle. Rather than treating those boundaries as permanent walls, she describes living as well as possible within her edges — and periodically testing whether those edges can expand. If you can stand and wash dishes for five minutes, perhaps eventually you try seven. Small improvements matter. Progress in inches can eventually create meaningful change. Sometimes Progress Means Rest Pushing isn't always the answer. Sometimes the next productive step is doing less. Mindy distinguishes genuine restorative rest from simply lying down while remaining mentally stimulated by television, phones, scrolling, or other distractions. The challenge is learning when to push an edge and when the body genuinely needs recovery. That requires awareness, patience, and wisdom. For a practitioner, it also means understanding that two patients with similar diagnoses may need very different guidance at a particular moment. A Biopsychosocial Approach to Lyme Disease Mindy describes her clinical approach as biopsychosocial. That means considering the patient's: Biology Psychology Social environment Physical limitations Emotional health Relationships Stressors Daily circumstances Complex chronic illness doesn't occur in isolation from the rest of a person's life. Treatment may target infections and physical dysfunction, but healing can also involve how someone relates to their illness, themselves, and the world around them. Mindy's own experience as both patient and practitioner gives her a particularly personal perspective on those intersections. Can Having Lyme Disease Make Someone a Different Practitioner? The conversation explores a provocative question: Does personally experiencing Lyme disease change someone's ability to care for Lyme patients? Mindy says her own illness gave her an understanding she didn't have beforehand. She can recognize nuances between different kinds of fatigue, pain, and physical limitations because she has experienced them. At the same time, she points to her longtime mentor Dr. Christine Green as an example of an accomplished Lyme clinician who did not personally have Lyme disease. The distinction isn't that someone must have Lyme disease to become an excellent practitioner. Rather, lived experience can provide another form of knowledge — one that can complement medical education and clinical expertise. Working with Ravel Health At the time of this interview, Mindy had recently begun working with Ravel Health, a virtual care platform focused on complex chronic illness. She explains that the model gives her greater flexibility to structure her schedule around both her patients' needs and her own ongoing health limitations. That matters because Mindy continues to manage symptoms herself. The flexibility allows her to dedicate significant attention to a patient while also building recovery time between demanding appointments. For Mindy, finding a sustainable way to practice is another extension of the same compassion she encourages patients to develop for themselves. The Human Capacity to Overcome The interview ends with hope. Despite everything Mindy has personally experienced — and everything she sees among people living with complex chronic illness — what repeatedly impresses her is the human capacity to overcome adversity. She watches patients face enormous physical and emotional challenges, adapt, continue forward, and sometimes emerge with a different understanding of themselves and their lives. That doesn't minimize how difficult Lyme disease can be. It recognizes that even within an extraordinarily difficult journey, healing, growth, purpose, and progress remain possible.

#983. Ruby Rose has spent the last several years largely out of the spotlight. Now, she's ready to talk, and she chose Off the Vine for her first-ever podcast interview.In a rare and deeply personal conversation, Ruby opens up to Kaitlyn about the life people didn't see behind the fame, including a childhood that shaped her in ways she's still unpacking today and the surprising reason acting was never actually part of her plan. She looks back at risking nearly everything to create Break Free, the viral film that ultimately led to Orange Is the New Black, and what it was really like to become one of the most recognizable faces in the world almost overnight.But at the height of it all, something changed. Ruby gets candid about the experiences that made her step away from Hollywood, what that time away helped her realize about herself, and why Special Forces: World's Toughest Test became the unexpected project that brought her back in front of the camera, this time with no character to hide behind.It's Ruby Rose in a way you haven't heard her before: funny, incredibly open, and ready to tell her story on her own terms.If you're LOVING this podcast, please follow and leave a rating and review below!
