Creativity isn't a rare talent—it's a trainable process. In this episode, you'll hear a master creator break down what actually happens when inspiration hits, and how to build the conditions for it to return. On Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Sayan sits down with world-renowned theater artist and author Stan Lai to explore the difference between method (technique) and wisdom (meaning). This conversation is for artists, founders, professionals, and curious minds who want deeper focus, better ideas, and a more confident creative practice—without chasing external validation or forcing output. About the Guest: Stan Lai is a celebrated playwright and theater director with over 40 years of experience and more than 40 full-length plays staged, beginning in Taiwan and across China. His book Creativity has sold over a million copies in Chinese and is being used as the foundation for university-level creativity curriculum initiatives. Key Takeaways: Upgrade your creative results by separating technique (method) from meaning (wisdom). Use the “Where is the music?” test: impressive skill isn't the same as expressive depth. Build a richer inner library—your mind can only create from the “files” you collect. Treat inspiration as combination: the creative mind pulls different internal files and connects them fast. Protect nuance by slowing inputs (less scrolling, more deliberate attention). Find wisdom outside formal education—schools often teach method, not life-direction.

What if recovery didn't have to mean pushing harder—or going under the needle? In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Sayan explores how healing can become more intelligent, less invasive, and more aligned with the body's natural repair systems. Joining him is Dr. Tommy Rhee, who breaks down recovery vs. overtraining, why “push through pain” backfires, and how next-gen regenerative signaling may support longevity, mental resilience, and trust in the healing process—without aggressive intervention. About the Guest: Dr. Tommy Rhee is a sports chiropractor, author, and practitioner focused on cell-free regenerative medicine and performance recovery. He has experience spanning elite athletics, clinical work, and military service. Key Takeaways: Recovery is as essential as training—overtraining can drive chronic injury. “Aggressive recovery” can worsen compromised tissue; strategic rest matters. Regenerative medicine focuses on signals that support tissue repair. Non-invasive topical delivery may reduce risks tied to injections. Physical healing impacts mood and identity—mind, body, and purpose interact. Fasting may help some people reset habits, but approach it thoughtfully.

When life strips away comfort, mindset stops being motivational talk and becomes a survival-grade discipline. In Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Sayan sits down with Branden LaNette to unpack mindset as lived practice: how trauma can hijack identity, why scrolling can keep people numb, and what it means to respond to reality with radical responsibility. This episode is for anyone who feels stuck between who they've been and who they're trying to become—and wants a practical next step that actually moves the needle. About the Guest: Branden LaNette is the host of the “Listen B…” podcast and an author who speaks candidly about emotional intelligence, boundaries, personal responsibility, and faith. She shares her story of being on her own young and raising six kids.

You do not have to stay stuck in pain, trauma, anxiety, and depression. There is hope for you because healing starts beyond the brain. Healing begins with the power of your mind. Everyone experiences struggle, pain, or heartache at some point in their life journey. The question is what you choose to do with it. Do you let it keep you stuck? Or do you acknowledge it, accept it, and tap into the power of your mind? Because healing starts beyond the brain and its stories, which most often are not truths. The Connection Between Neuroscience and Faith Exploring the connection between neuroscience and faith reveals a path to healing anxiety. Bridging the Mind-Brain Gap Traditionally, science has viewed the mind and brain as synonymous. However, contemporary research challenges this notion. The mind, through conscious thought and intention, can alter the brain's pathways. Heal Your Brain with Gratitude Gratitude plays a pivotal role in healing your brain. Training the Brain for Resilience To heal your brain, it's crucial to train it to be resilient. Empowering Change Through Thought Change starts with recognizing the power of your thoughts. The brain is 80% more likely to think negative thoughts than positive, this is negativity bias. In addition, the brain cannot determine what is true or false. Transformative Healing Through Acceptance Acceptance of life's challenges is another step in healing. It's not about denying pain but acknowledging it as part of the human experience. The Importance of Building Community Healing extends beyond the individual, emphasizing the importance of community and connection. Embrace Inner Hope and Faith Hope and faith are integral to healing. Heal your brain, enjoy your life. Breaking through anxiety and pain starts beyond the brain by focusing on the power of your mind, renewing it, and transforming your beliefs about what's possible for you through grace and faith.

Why do some people feel “easy” to talk to—while others constantly frustrate us? In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Yusuf sits down with Marita Littauer Tedder to unpack how personality wiring shapes communication, conflict, and connection. This conversation is for anyone feeling stuck in recurring misunderstandings at home or work. Marita shares her simple color-based personality framework, how “good intentions” can still miss the mark, and the practical shift that changes relationships fastest: learning to identify someone's type and meet their emotional needs with maturity and care. About the Guest: Marita Littauer Tedder is the author of 20+ books, including the long-standing bestseller Wired That Way. She teaches how understanding personality differences can improve communication, reduce conflict, and strengthen relationships. Key Takeaways: Stop assuming care equals “communicating like me”—personality differences change what support looks like. Use personality awareness to separate “lazy or rude” labels from what's actually happening. Notice visible clues (voice, space, organization, body language) to identify someone's style. Reduce clashes by choosing strengths over weaknesses—growth is a decision. Improve one strained relationship by meeting the other person's emotional needs consistently. In teams, shared personality language can prevent misreading tone and intent.

What begins as a sincere search for meaning can quietly become control. In this episode, you'll hear how devotion can blur into self-erasure—and what it takes to find your voice again. This conversation is for anyone navigating a high-demand group, spiritual community, or power dynamic that feels “off.” Hosted by Sayan on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, journalist and chef Priya Hutner shares her journey from joining an ashram as a teen to leadership, awakening, and healing through writing, therapy, and rebuilding self-trust. About the Guest: Priya Hutner is a journalist and chef, and a former CEO of an ashram community. She authored the memoir Chasing Nirvana, reflecting on spirituality, control, and recovery. Key Takeaways: Notice “slow-burn” red flags: shaming, fear-based loyalty, and loss of agency. Ask: “Can I question, think critically, and leave without punishment?” Track incongruence between teachings and lived reality. Rebuild self-trust through supportive practices (therapy, writing, reflection). Separate genuine spirituality from systems that demand self-erasure. 5.

Many people believe trauma only counts if a child is physically harmed. This episode challenges that belief by exploring how witnessing domestic violence silently shapes the mind, emotions, and relationships for years to come. If you've ever felt guilt, fear, hypervigilance, or self-doubt without knowing why, this conversation offers clarity and relief. You'll learn how early exposure to fear and unpredictability forms hidden beliefs—and how naming those experiences can open the door to healing. About the Guest: Brian F. Martin is the Founder and CEO of the Childhood Domestic Violence Association. He is the author of Invincibleand executive producer of the award-winning documentary The Children Next Door. Key Takeaways: Witnessing domestic violence can be as damaging as direct physical abuse Children often internalize guilt for situations they never caused or controlled Naming childhood domestic violence is a critical first step toward healing Challenging false beliefs can reduce shame and emotional burden Safe conversations can transform trauma into resilience How to Connect With the Guest Website: https://cdv.org/  Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?

If you keep second-guessing yourself, it may not be confusion—it may be a habit of outsourcing your inner knowing. This conversation helps you hear the difference between fear-driven noise and true inner guidance. This episode is for anyone stuck in overthinking, people-pleasing, or decision paralysis. Toni LaMotta shares practical ways to build self-trust, reframe “wrong decisions” as feedback, and use body-based awareness to move from fear into clarity and alignment. About the Guest: Toni LaMotta spent 60 years in religious life and has trained in six evidence-based methodologies over two decades. She helps people shift from external validation to deep self-trust through guidance, journaling, and somatic practices. Key Takeaways: Learn to spot the “barking dog” voice (fast, fear-based) vs. inner guidance (quiet, steady, body-knowing). Treat “wrong choices” as information—make a decision, learn, and adjust instead of freezing in anxiety. Reduce over-reliance on pros/cons lists and constant opinion-seeking to strengthen self-trust. Try the Fear-to-Faith somatic reset: name the fear, name the coping need, choose a higher-quality replacement. Practice presence by listening to your breath and body sensations to access clearer guidance. Make the process light and consistent—small daily practice builds reliable inner clarity.

In this deeply reflective episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Sayan welcomes Tracy Smith, author of The Purpose Was in Getting Lost. Tracy opens up about her journey from feeling disconnected and directionless to finding self-belonging and purpose through vulnerability, travel, and self-trust. She shares how the quiet ache of being “lost” became the very invitation to rediscover her authentic self — not through reinvention, but by saying yes to herself for the first time. About the Guest: Tracy Smith is a writer, traveler, and mother based in Washington, D.C. Her memoir explores how losing herself — both literally and emotionally — led to powerful transformation. Through stories of courage, midlife exploration, and self-compassion, Tracy helps others see “lost” not as failure, but as freedom. Key Takeaways: Getting lost can be the path back to yourself. Reinvention isn't about becoming someone new — it's about reclaiming who you've always been. Saying yes to yourself, even in small ways, is radical self-love. Travel and solitude can be powerful mirrors for inner healing. Connect with Tracy Smith: Instagram | Website | Author Page  — Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?

Most productivity advice assumes consistency is key—but what if your body tells a different story? In this enlightening episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Sayan sits down with Renae Fieck, a feminine leadership coach, mom of three, and author of Cycle Sync Your Business. Renae shares her transformational journey from burnout to balance, revealing how syncing work, creativity, and energy with the menstrual cycle can revolutionize the way women approach time management. Together, they unpack the misconceptions around “consistency,” explore the hormonal rhythms that shape women's productivity, and highlight how working with your body instead of against it creates flow, clarity, and sustainable success. About the Guest: Renae Fieck is a speaker, coach, and author specializing in helping women align their lives and businesses with their body's natural rhythms. Through her book Cycle Sync Your Business and coaching programs, she empowers women to ditch burnout, rediscover ease, and embrace feminine flow in leadership and life. Key Takeaways: True productivity comes from honoring your body's hormonal rhythm. Consistency looks different for women—it's cyclical, not linear. Stress and overexertion disrupt hormonal balance, leading to burnout. Asking “What does my body need today?” fosters mindfulness and balance.

For many women, the hardest part of working in male-dominated industries isn't the work itself—it's the constant pressure to prove, tolerate, and stay quiet just to belong. In this powerful conversation, Samantha shares her lived experience as one of the few women in aviation and maintenance, revealing the mental toll of being the "only one in the room" and how that pressure quietly erodes confidence, self-worth, and wellbeing.

Trust that you are qualified, capable, and belong. 4. SET BOUNDARIES WITHOUT APOLOGIZING Practice saying: "Let me finish," or "Give me a moment, and then you speak." 5.

As we have stepped into 2026, many of us are exhausted—not just mentally, but physically—from a world that rewards stillness and productivity over health. In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, guest host Sana sits down with Pedro Wunderlich, founder of Wakeout, to challenge everything we've been taught about exercise. This conversation reframes movement as a natural, human need rather than a punishing task or moral test. Pedro shares how modern infrastructure, corporate culture, and the fitness industry have normalized sitting, discomfort, and disconnection from the body. From questioning ergonomic chairs to calling out hustle culture, this episode explores how small, intuitive movements throughout the day can restore not just physical health, but emotional clarity, connection, and joy. This is a powerful reminder that movement doesn't need to hurt to heal—and that your body isn't broken, it's just been ignored.

Based in Guatemala, Pedro has designed nearly 3,000 natural movements to help people break free from sedentary lifestyles and reconnect with their bodies in gentle, human ways.

In this deeply human and grounding conversation, guest host Sana sits down with Ryan Reichert to explore the concept of Protector Development—the inner armor we build to survive pain, trauma, and relentless life challenges. From childhood adversity and military service to addiction recovery, divorce, and rebuilding life from the ground up, Ryan shares how survival mode shapes our identity and how healing begins when we allow ourselves to ask for help. This episode is for anyone who feels stuck in a valley, questioning their past decisions, their worth, or their future. Ryan reminds us that progress doesn't come from massive leaps, but from small, intentional steps—just 1% better each day. A powerful reminder that strength is not about never breaking, but about learning how to bend, heal, and rediscover purpose. About the Guest: Ryan Reichert is a U.S. Army veteran with 23 years of service, a recovering alcoholic, author, speaker, and founder of Our Protector Development. Through his books, coaching, and courses, Ryan helps individuals turn pain into purpose, survival into service, and brokenness into growth. Key Takeaways: – Protector behaviors are formed in survival and need compassion, not judgment – Healing begins when we give ourselves permission to ask for help – One small step a day can change everything – Routines build stability when life feels chaotic – You are not broken—you are becoming Connect with Ryan: Website: https://ourprotectordevelopment.com/  Instagram| Facebook Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life ?

Fast wins feel good, but they often leave you burnt out and disconnected. In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Yusuf talks with Jake Knox, author of Oak Logs and Gasoline, about why slow growth is not a delay, it is the foundation. This episode is for anyone chasing results but feeling scattered, stressed, or emotionally “behind.” You will learn how to shift from quick fixes to steady fuel through small, practical habits that build resilience at work, at home, and in how you relate to yourself. About the Guest: Jake Knox is the author of Oak Logs and Gasoline and a mentor-focused coach. He shares lessons shaped by years of conversations while raising four boys, using a “campfire” metaphor to teach sustainable growth. Key Takeaways: Use “oak logs vs gasoline” to spot what is sustainable vs what is just urgency. Watch for “mess in between” as a sign your pace is too fast. Reduce stress by finishing small basics before stacking bigger goals. Build connection by being present in short daily moments with loved ones. Reset fast with 3 to 5 minutes of breathing and gratitude. Stack small wins to rebuild momentum without overwhelm.

In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Sayan sits down with Kylee Ingram to unpack how better decision design can reduce stress, improve clarity, and rebuild self-trust at work. They explore decision intelligence, crowd wisdom, and why “the usual people in the room” often leads to predictable mistakes. This conversation is for leaders, founders, and team members who feel stuck in chaotic meetings, unclear accountability, or constant second-guessing. You will learn how to structure decision rooms so the right voices are included, bias is reduced, and decisions improve without adding more time or drama. About the Guest: Kylee Ingram is the co-founder and CEO of Wizer, a decision intelligence platform focused on mapping cognitive strengths and helping teams bring the right people into important decisions. Her background includes television production and a crowdsourced documentary experiment called CrowdTV. Key Takeaways: Aim for 6+ decision participants to unlock “wise crowd” effects, but only if diversity and independence are built in Watch for three bias types in meetings: social (who is heard), information (what is valued), capacity(oversimplifying under pressure) A weak decision room looks like the same voices repeating, blind spots growing, and outcomes feeling narrow Build the room using three lenses: outward diversity (age, gender, ethnicity), experience, and cognitive roles(data, risk, options, process, outcomes) Better decision design can reduce errors and improve innovation when the right mix is present Start by understanding your own decision style, then add a complementary thinker to balance your blind spots How to Connect With the Guest: https://www.wizer.business/decision-profiles  If you're curious about how you make decisions, Kylee invites listeners to complete a free Decision Profile. It takes about five minutes and gives you insight into your decision style, strengths, and blind spots — and how you tend to show up in group decisions.   Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?

Most people treat mental health like an emergency tool, not a daily strength practice. In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Yusuf sits down with Cory Chadwick, founder of Lyceum, to unpack the difference between reactive coping and proactive growth. This conversation is for anyone who's functioning but not thriving, especially busy leaders and high performers who want more clarity, energy, and consistency. You'll learn how to close the gap between where you are now and your personal “10” by building repeatable mental habits, not chasing motivation. About the Guest: Cory Chadwick is the founder of Lyceum, a trainer-led “mental gym” designed to help leaders and high performers build proactive mental fitness. He focuses on practical tools, accountability, and consistent growth through weekly group training. Key Takeaways: Treat mental health like physical fitness: train consistently, not only in crisis Use the “1 to 10” check-in to spot the gap between current self and best self Drop the need for perfection: missing one day is normal, quitting is optional Focus on “do something, not nothing” to keep momentum alive Ask yourself: “What do I really want out of life?” to simplify decisions Build sustainable habits with structure, guidance, and community How to Connect With the Guest: LinkedIn (connect with Cory Chadwick) https://www.yourlyceum.com/  Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?

Some pain does not just hurt. It reshapes how you trust, how you speak, and what you hide. In this tender episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Sayan sits with author Lisa K. Raynor to explore what changes when survivors finally tell the truth. This episode is for anyone carrying trauma in silence, and for loved ones who want to support without judgment. Lisa shares how secrecy, shame, and not being believed can shape relationships and self-worth, and how small steps like writing can become a doorway to healing and helping others. About the Guest: Lisa K. Raynor is the author of Shelf Life of a Trophy Wife. She shares lived experience and reflections on survival, silence, and the non-linear path of healing. Key Takeaways: If you are not ready to share everything, start with one small safe step (journaling, a poem, a private note). Being “high-functioning” can hide deep pain; perfection is not proof you are okay. Not being believed keeps many survivors silent, so choose support carefully. Triggers can show up years later; you can “visit” dark days without living there. Shift the blame where it belongs: survivors are not responsible for what happened.

In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Sayan sits down with Justin Smith, creator of Cray, a dating safety app built from a deeply personal breakup and rebuild. Justin shares how a sudden, traumatic relationship collapse pushed him to question reality, spot manipulation patterns, and turn hard-earned lessons into a tool that helps others avoid the same pain. This conversation is for anyone who feels confused, drained, or unsafe in dating or long-term relationships, and wants clearer signals before things get worse. You will walk away with practical ways to compare words vs actions, understand why red flags matter, and use simple tools that support safer decisions without shame. About the Guest: Justin Smith is the creator of Cray, an app designed to help people recognize relationship red flags and manipulation patterns. Based in the U.S., he built Cray after a difficult end to an eight-year relationship. Key Takeaways: Ask: “Is this reality, or am I being pushed into a false story?” Compare words vs actions because consistency reveals truth faster than promises. Red flags matter more when you understand why they are dangerous, not just what they are. Use layered safety checks: relationship health, manipulation risk, legal history, and identity verification. If you would not accept this behavior for your child, do not normalize it for yourself. Tools reduce shame because you can seek clarity privately before asking others for advice.

In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Sayan sits down with Samantha Jones to explore the hidden cost of “success” when your body is running on survival. Samantha shares how single motherhood, entrepreneurship, and chronic stress pulled her away from her own needs, and what finally helped her reconnect. This conversation is for business owners, leaders, and parents who look successful on paper but feel disconnected inside. You will hear practical ways to rebuild energy and clarity through small nourishment rituals, and a mindset shift that flips hustle culture on its head: design your life first, then build your business around it. About the Guest: Samantha Jones is an entrepreneur, culinary herbalist, wellness strategist, author, and speaker. She has worked in healthcare practices (including dentistry) and helps leaders integrate nervous system health and nourishment into real life and business. Key Takeaways: Survival-mode leadership often creates action before clarity; stability flips it to clarity then action You do not need burnout to hit milestones; success can include wellbeing A simple daily ritual (like 2 PM tea time) can rebuild body connection and self-trust Use food as support, not trends: notice what you feel, then choose nourishment accordingly Ask daily: “What do I want my life to look and feel like, and what is one small step today?” Build your life first, then build a business that fits that life How to Connect With the Guest: Website: Stirred by Earth (her forthcoming book name and her main hub) Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?

In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Sana sits down with Aleks Kryloff, founder of Stern, to talk about what “balance” really looks like when you are building a company from scratch. Aleks shares how a frustrating home-services experience pushed him to build a business around trust, communication, and modern systems. This conversation is for founders, operators, and high-achievers who feel stuck in survival mode. You will hear practical ways to prioritize, protect family time, and reduce bottlenecks without losing standards, even when balance still feels far off.

He built Stern around clear communication, reliability, and a values-led team culture.

Some wounds are not from one moment, but years of surviving what you never should have faced. On Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik sits down with trauma-informed psychotherapist Anjalia McGoldrick to explore how real healing begins when you finally slow down and look within. This episode is for anyone who feels stuck in old patterns, gets easily triggered in relationships, or quietly believes it is too late to change. You will learn how to spot inner-child signals, stop projecting pain onto others, and rebuild self-worth through compassion, forgiveness, and daily practice. About the Guest: Anjalia McGoldrick is a trauma-informed psychotherapist, metaphysician, and motivational speaker. She founded Life in Balance Counseling and Wellness Center and is the author of The Child I Left Behind. Key Takeaways: Treat triggers as signals: name the emotion, then ask “where do I feel this in my body?” Replace blame with curiosity: “What old story is this activating in me?” Practice inner-child reparenting: respond with reassurance, not criticism. Watch for avoidance habits (overworking, numbing behaviors) and choose one honest step instead. Use forgiveness as self-release: write what happened, what you learned, and what you needed then.

In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Sayan sits down with Gazit Chaya Nkosi to explore what it truly takes to move from surviving to genuinely living. Gazit shares a raw, grounded journey through long-term suicidal thinking, sensory sensitivity, trauma responses, and the slow return to inner trust. This conversation is for anyone who feels stuck in anxiety, shutdown, reactivity, shame, or the pressure to “push through.” You will hear practical insight on why talk therapy alone can miss the body's needs, how nervous system regulation changes everything, and how to find a path beyond rigid cultural rules into real self-worth. About the Guest: Gazit Chaya Nkosi is a coach and mystic seeker who works with Safe and Sound Protocol listening and somatic parts work. They share lived experience with trauma, sensory sensitivity, and reclaiming a life that feels safe and authentic.

In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Sana sits down with Dr. Bob Rich for a real conversation about grief, suffering, and the choices we make when life breaks open. This episode is for anyone navigating loss, big change, or emotional pain and wondering how to keep going without forcing a “growth story.” You will hear practical ways to build self-respect, respond to anger with intention, and find meaning at your own pace. About the Guest: Dr. Bob Rich is a retired psychotherapist and author based in Halesville, Victoria. He has written The Hole in Your Life: Grief and Bereavement and shares resources through his blog, “Bobbing Around.” Key Takeaways: Treat setbacks as learning opportunities: ask “What can I learn from this?” Build a pause habit for anger: breathe, count, then respond.

About the Guest: Keith Spurgin is a relationship coach, author, and “leader of leaders.” He wrote Unknown: Finding Connection in a Disconnected World and shares practical guidance on building healthier relationships. Key Takeaways: Followers and acquaintances are not the same as being truly known, seen, and heard Shame keeps people quiet about loneliness, which deepens isolation Watch for self-sabotage patterns like ghosting and pushing people away first Conflict is normal in every relationship, and working through it builds closeness “Canceling” people after disagreements is a warning sign you are moving toward isolation Forgiveness happens in layers and helps you reopen connection without denying the hurt How to Connect With the Guest: Website: https://keithspurgin.net/ Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?

A new year can feel hopeful and heavy at the same time. In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Sana (filling in for Avik) sits down with spiritual teacher and transformation guide Ashmita Arora to explore a bold question: is there one root cause behind most human suffering, and one solution that keeps getting missed? This conversation is for anyone feeling stuck in repeating patterns, burnout, relationship strain, or self-pressure. Ashmita breaks down how attachment fuels overwhelm, and how detachment (especially in perception) can create real freedom, clarity, and peace. About the Guest: Ashmita Arora is a spiritual teacher, transformation guide, entrepreneur, and author. She is the founder of an intuitive practice and creator of Portal to Self, a transformational journey focused on clarity, release, and integration. Key Takeaways: Identify the attachment driving your stress (perfection, success, approval, control). Practice detachment by changing how you perceive the situation, not just the situation itself. Use meditation consistently to reconnect with your body's signals of expansion vs contraction. Reframe “mistakes” by assigning new meaning and looking for the lesson. Ask before big choices: “Is this fear, guilt, or obligation?” How to Connect With the Guest: https://www.ashmitaarora.com/    If you're in immediate crisis, contact local emergency services or your regional suicide prevention helpline.

When life feels overwhelming, we often push harder instead of listening inward. In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Charu sits down with therapist and nature-based practitioner Mary Rothwell to explore what plants can teach us about thriving. This conversation is for anyone feeling stressed, emotionally drained, or stuck in people-pleasing patterns. You will learn practical, grounded ways to notice what you need, set healthier boundaries, and reconnect with your body and environment, starting with small moments of nature in daily life. About the Guest: Mary Rothwell is a licensed therapist, speaker, and podcast host with more than 35 years of mental health experience. She is also a Master Gardener and a certified forest therapy practitioner, and she has a book coming out called Nature Knows. Key Takeaways: Stop defaulting to “try harder” when you feel burnout; more effort can backfire, like overwatering a plant. Use your body as data: notice where tension sits and what actually helps you recover. Boundaries are not about shutting people out; they protect what you need to stay nourished. Start small with nature: a houseplant, a neighborhood tree, or five minutes outside counts. Practice “sense-based mindfulness”: breathe, then notice what you see, hear, smell, and feel. Healthy connection matters: like ecosystems, people thrive with support, not isolation.

Gaslighting, love bombing, and emotional manipulation leave individuals questioning their reality and self-worth. They may feel crazy. This cycle leads to heightened stress levels and can deeply impact emotional health. Many individuals with anxiety have histories of tumultuous relationships or dysfunctional family dynamics. Seeking Hope and Transformation Despite the challenges, there is hope. The path to healing involves finding clarity and re-establishing one's identity independently from the narcissist's influence. This journey can lead to freedom and renewed self-worth. Central to this transformation is understanding one's identity in Christ. Understanding one's identity in Christ and the character of God can offer a secure foundation for healing and overcoming abuse. Christian Faith: A Source of Strength Faith plays a pivotal role in finding hope amid challenges involving narcissism. Christian teachings encourage us to seek God's strength and wisdom in navigating difficult relationships. Relying on prayer and scripture provides clarity and peace. Faith assures us that no experience is wasted. God uses every trial to shape and strengthen us. Empowerment Through Understanding Recognizing narcissistic traits is empowering. It sets the stage for setting boundaries and prioritizing one's emotional health. Understanding narcissism equips individuals to address its challenges. This understanding promotes healthier relationships and personal well-being. It also helps people help others going through an experience with narcissism or covert abuse.

He's also the author of Atoms and Orchestras and shares frameworks like The Index, the Milwaukee Model, and the Pledge of Managerial Power. Key Takeaways: Bad bosses often cause “invisible injury” through neglect, unclear direction, and public disrespect. Not all harm is intentional, many managers were never taught ethical use of authority. Strong leadership means putting people first, not ego, control, or winning arguments. If a boss is fundamentally decent, use calm courage: ask clarifying questions about tone and intent. “Parental mind” works upward too: recognize what your manager does well to shift behavior safely. Management is not for everyone, rewards are delayed and abstract, so self-awareness matters.
