Phil's story illustrates the profound difference between shame-based recovery and compassionate inquiry. After cycling through AA for 15 years without lasting success, he found a new path when he learned how to explore drinking without judgment, treating each drinking episode as valuable data rather than personal failure.

41. A powerful story about burnout, boundaries, and reclaiming your life. It's Mental Health Awareness Month—and let's be real: for moms, May might just be the most mentally exhausting month of the year. Talent shows. Awards ceremonies. Prom. Final projects. Finals. You name it—May has it. I'm in the thick of it. My daughter's graduating in mere weeks, and the calendar is jam-packed with celebration and emotion, stretching me very thin. That is exactly why we're revisiting this powerful conversation. In this episode, I sat down with Work Muse clients Mary Kaye Stuart and Sommer Hruska, whose job share was born from the toll of a demanding job on Mary Kaye's health and a deep need for change. Mary Kaye hit a wall, and instead of pushing through, she got honest about what she needed… and did something about it. Here's what you'll learn in this episode: Why burnout isn't just about stress—it's about unsustainable systemsHow Mary Kaye and Sommer created a job share arrangement that saved her career and wellbeingWhy job sharing is a practical AND powerful solution for long-term healthHow you can use job sharing to build in boundaries, breathing room, and balanceA doctor's sage advice for longevity and a young mother's determination to find more time for her children and homestead might have been the impetus. However, job sharing led both Mary Kaye and Sommer to enjoy other parts of life society "doesn't deem as worthy" like exploring passions such as writing and being truly present with one's children and self. If you're feeling the weight of it all—this one's for you. Especially if you've ever whispered to yourself, “There has to be a better way…” There is. And this episode shows you what it can look like. It may just be the wake-up call you need to consider sharing your job.Links mentioned:Work Muse Guide to Job Sharing (Free Guide)Job Share, Live Life + Slay Work Facebook GroupDM me on LinkedInEpisode Website: workmuse.com/41Transcript here.Send Melissa a Text Message.RATE, REVIEW & FOLLOW ON APPLE PODCASTS Thank you for supporting my bootstrapped social good business and mission! “I love Melissa and Jobshare Revolution.”

Who said too much TV isn't good for you? Hosts of the TV Doctor podcast are here to chat about why actually, TV can be the perfect prescription for your wellness. From community, to representation, to escapism, we dive into the many ways in which watching tv might just be what you need. In this episode, Dr. Cassandre Dunbar is joined by media experts Dr. Michele Foss and Ashley Johnson, the dynamic duo behind The TV Doc Podcast. Together, they unpack how television and media shape our sense of identity, belonging, and emotional wellness—especially for Black and mixed-race folks navigating representation and community in an often isolating world. In this episode, we discussed:How TV and media help shape self-perception and racial identityThe emotional and therapeutic impact of nostalgic showsFandom as a powerful form of community and connectionWhy representation on screen matters for our mental healthHow to raise media-savvy, critical-thinking kids in the YouTube ageWhether you're a lifelong Trekkie or someone who finds comfort in rewatching Living Single, this conversation will remind you of the deep impact media can have on our wellbeing.Guest Spotlight: Dr. Michele Foss is what happens when you combine a Professor of Rhetoric and Media in the Department of Communication Studies at Sacramento State University with an unapologetically nerdy pop culture fanatic. From the classes she teaches (ranging from Television Criticism to Media Aesthetics to Communication Theory to Methods of Fandom Studies) to the keynote addresses and invited lectures she delivers, Dr. Foss infuses heart, creativity, inclusivity, and fun into all she does. She uses her three fancy degrees and more than 25 years of boots-on-the-ground experience to make academic concepts accessible and "sticky" for her audiences.

"Spirituality is like nuclear fission—it has the power to illuminate and energize but also to destroy when mishandled." — Dan Koch"Thriving isn't about a perfect life; it's about alignment between our deepest values and our lived reality." — Dan KochOn our path to spiritual health, we need to keep our eyes open to the ways religion and spirituality have been exploited to coerce, control, and create chaos. Focusing on the intersection of religion and psychology, licensed therapist, researcher, and podcaster Dan Koch is creating a public conversation about spiritual harm and abuse, helping victims learn how to deal with spiritual trauma, and offering insight and guidance toward healthy religious and spiritual experiences.From his own personal journey of religious trauma to his extensive research on spiritual abuse, Dan shares insights on how faith communities can both wound and restore. The conversation covers the psychological impact of religious trauma, the complexities of self-diagnosis, and practical strategies for self-knowledge and healing for anyone who has wrestled with faith, struggled with past church experiences, or have lost their religion.In this conversation with Dan Koch, we discuss:The psychological study of spiritual abuse and harm, including conceptual definitions and the many factors that come along with them.The symptoms and most recognizable patterns that point to spiritual abuseThe impact of abuse and trauma on psychological and spiritual healthHow to reappraise and challenge harmful core beliefsAnd how to find healing, joy, and transcendence as we deal with past trauma.Spirituality: Pro-Social Benefits, with a Shadow Side of Harm, Exploitation, and ViolenceThrough With & For, as well as the broader work of The Thrive Center, we regularly explore the expansive benefits and positives that emerge from our inherent spirituality as human beings, and how that relates to our individual and collective thriving.Religion and spirituality can be an immense force for good, offering countless pro-social benefits to the world, helping us our innate spiritual capacities is an essential factor in what it means to thrive.But we have to acknowledge the harm and vice and corruption—the violence— that has been perpetrated through religious and spiritual contexts. Spiritual abuse is a serious matter and there's no way we can cultivate a full understanding or integrated experience of healthy spirituality without coming to terms with its prevalence and effects.Dan Koch's attention to spiritual harm and abuse is about clearing the way toward a healthier spirituality grounded in care and healing. By exposing and exploring past traumas in the context of heathy and respectful relationships, we can grow into a more joyful faith and transcendent spiritual life.About Dan KochDan Koch is a licensed therapist supporting patients working through the trauma of spiritual abuse; and his work and insight in this domain emerges from his empirical research.
