Healing is often painted as neat, linear, or easy. But the reality? There are truths most people never say out loud. This second episode of our 3-part mini-series dives into the hard truths about healing — the myths, lies, and realities that shape the process but often go unspoken. We'll explore: Why feeling safe in your own body again is harder than anyone admits The myth of “tough-love” and why compassion and curiosity actually work better Why healing can feel lonelier before it feels lighter The uncomfortable truth about breaking cycles: it takes repetition The lie that PTSD recovery ends at a “finish line” ✨ Honest, unfiltered, and human — this conversation is about acknowledging the truths that free us from shame and help us move forward.

We're kicking off a brand-new 3-part mini-series: 15 questions nobody usually puts out loud about healing. In this first episode, I explore the foundations of healing — the underrated skills, the overlooked habits, and the lessons that carry us from surviving to thriving. Together, we'll talk about: Why listening to your body is one of the most underrated healing skills The hard truth that not every therapist, practitioner, or doctor is skilled or effective The mistake of treating healing like a checklist How reconnecting with heritage, food, and traditions can regulate and restore Why keeping promises to yourself builds trust and integrity

The boys are back after an impromptu break, and barely remember how to do this! Things are loose and goofy as the fellas get back in the swing of things with 1996's In Love and War, starring Sandy B. There's not a lot to goof about in this WWI flick, but topics do include: Rum tum tuggin', Tape Beard rides again, praying for a Vrbo, Woof Woof Entertainment, thumb privileges, and always a Richard -- never a David!

Every September, the world pauses to recognize Suicide Prevention Awareness Month and World Suicide Prevention Day. Awareness matters, but awareness alone is not enough. In this episode of PTSD and Beyond, Dr. Deb shares the story behind the semicolon — a symbol of survival, continuation, and hope. From its beginnings with Amy Bleuel and Project Semicolon to its spread as a global movement, the semicolon reminds us: your story isn't over. Dr. Deb explores:

Would your kids say that you're kind? Even if the answer is no, this week's episode can show you how to be a kind kind of parent so that you can teach and role model kindness to your children and embody who God has called you to be. The world is a rough place and a little kindness can go a long way, especially with our kids. Let's go.

In this episode of PTSD and Beyond, Dr. Deb explores the concept of seedthoughts, the small but powerful phrases we carry inside us that shape our health, our healing, and our growth. The term “seedthoughts” was coined by Barbara Hoberman Levine in her book Your Body Believes Every Word You Say. Levine discovered that the body can interpret everyday language literally, allowing phrases like “this job is killing me” to plant stress, pain, and even illness. Brian Tracy, with whom Dr. Deb co-authored The Success Blueprint, shared a parallel approach. He taught that affirmations and intentional self-talk are “seeds” planted in the subconscious that grow into beliefs and outcomes. Where Levine warns us of the weeds, Tracy shows us how to cultivate the garden. Together, their work offers both caution and hope and a path forward. In this episode, Dr. Deb discusses: • What seedthoughts are and how they affect mind and body • How Levine and Tracy's approaches connect and differ • Why seedthought practice is not toxic positivity but rather a trauma-informed path toward healing • The science behind seedthoughts, including research in neuroplasticity and psychoneuroimmunology • Three practical exercises you can begin today to replant seedthoughts that support resilience and growth Words are not just commentary. They are creation. By becoming aware of the seedthoughts we plant, we reclaim the power to shape healing and growth beyond trauma. If this episode resonates with you, try one of the practices shared, reflect on the seedthoughts you carry, and share this conversation with someone who may need it. If today's episode resonated with you, share it with someone who could use a reminder that they're not alone.

What does it mean to be “good” or to reflect “goodness” in our lives and our parenting? Both words are casually thrown around these days, but this week we're going to dive a little deeper and explore what they actually mean from a Christian perspective. We'll also learn what goodness actually looks like in our lives and parenting and how we can teach and reflect goodness to our kids and how we can represent God well. Let's go.

Is it possible to stay “in love”? YES! It is possible to love and be in love for the life of a marriage! If you doubt it, or if you're in a place where you question your own love for your spouse, we encourage you to tune in to this episode. Sometimes, couples feel like they lose love, and fall away from the loving feelings they entered the marriage with at its start. This doesn't mean you married the wrong person and it doesn't mean the relationship is over. It simply means that you're experiencing L I F E and you just need to find your way back to the “first love” you experienced! Tune in now to “In Love”!

In Love's Labour's Lost, Berowne declares, “Let us dance and sport,” while in Twelfth Night, Sir Toby Belch exclaims, “Shall we set about some revels?” Shakespeare's plays are filled with movement—more than 100 stage directions across his works call for a dance, making dance not merely entertainment, but a powerful form of expression in the early modern world. This week on That Shakespeare Life, we're taking a closer look at what those dances might have looked like in real life. What was the significance of dancing in the 16th and early 17th centuries? What kinds of dances were popular? And how did they reflect the politics, courtship, and social hierarchies of the day? To help us explore the rhythm and meaning behind Shakespeare's choreography is our guest, historian and dance scholar Emily Winerock. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Some people will feel uncomfortable with your healing. Your breakthroughs, your successes, your post-trauma growth — they will stir envy, unease, and even jealousy in those who have not yet faced their own shadows. And sometimes, they will try to dim your light so they can feel safer in their own. In this episode of PTSD and Beyond, I'm here to remind you of a truth you may have forgotten — you were never meant to play small. You are not meant to be small. You are meant to be a light in the darkness. If you've been feeling like your light has dimmed, this episode is for you. I'll share my light with you, right here, right now, so you can breathe it in, feel it fuel you, and remember: You were never meant to be small.

Some nights aren't for fixing, proving, or pushing through. They're for loosening your shoulders, breathing a little deeper, and remembering you've already done enough for today. In this episode, I invite you into a moment of rest — a space where you can set down the weight you've been carrying, even if only for a while. Together, we'll remember that you are more than the pain you feel, and that it's okay to simply exist, breathe, and be.

Why the Right Decision Can Still Feel Wrong Have you ever made a decision you knew was the right one… but you couldn't shake the lingering feelings that made you doubt yourself? This emotional “lag” is more common than we think. Your logical mind can make a decision in seconds, but your emotional system...the limbic brain... works on a completely different clock. That mismatch can leave you feeling unsettled, second-guessing, or even wondering if you made a mistake, even when you didn't. In this episode, we explore: Why the head and heart don't always match right away How our nervous system processes change and safety Why common “fix it fast” advice often doesn't work The first step to working through the gap between decision and feeling How to give yourself permission to feel and function at the same time If you've ever been caught in the space between logic and emotion, this episode will help you understand what's really going on and why it's not a sign you made the wrong choice. Reflection Question: Have you ever made a decision that was right for you but took time to feel right? What helped you bridge that gap?

What if the reason you constantly feel drained isn't because you're doing too much, but because you're doing things in a way that goes against your natural design? Most of us are running on empty, trying to force ourselves into systems and rhythms that work for other people—but not for us. This week, I sat down with human design expert and best-selling author Erin Claire Jones to explore how understanding your unique energetic blueprint can transform how you work, love, and live. Erin breaks down the practical magic of human design and shows us how to stop forcing and start flowing. She reveals why most of us have been conditioned to work against our natural energy patterns, how this creates burnout and disconnection, and the simple shifts that can help you honor your design. She shares practical insights for all 5 human design types and explains why this system is less mystical theory and more practical life manual. Listen to this episode to discover:   What human design is and why it's the most practical system for understanding your energy and intuition The 5 human design types (Generators, Manifesting Generators, Projectors, Manifestors, and Reflectors) and how each is designed to move through the world Why Generators and Manifesting Generators need to ask “Do I really feel excited about this?” before saying yes to everything How Projectors can build successful businesses and raise families without burning out (spoiler: it's about working with your energy, not against it) Why Manifestors need freedom to do things their own way Why energy management is more important than time management How to use human design to understand your partner and kids on a deeper level   Follow Gervase:    Let's hang out on IG: @gervasekolmos  Want to go deeper (and get juicy discounts)?

We'll talk about the neuroscience of safety and bravery, the myths of courage, and how small moments can be the bravest of all. Whether you're in the middle of a storm or just beginning to exhale again, this one's for you. In This Episode, You'll Learn:

Self-control can be a wild beast to tame and we can all struggle with it in different areas of our lives, but sometimes the struggle is most evident in our parenting.

The New Yorker has said that Amy Bloom “gets more meaning into individual sentences than most authors manage in whole books.” She is the author of five novels: White Houses, Lucky Us, Away, Love Invents Us and – most recently – I'll Be Right Here. She's also authored three collections of short stories: Where the God Of Love Hangs Out, Come to Me (finalist for the National Book Award), and A Blind Man Can See How Much I Love You (finalist for the National Book Critics Circle Award). In 2022, she wrote the widely acclaimed New York Times bestselling memoir, In Love. I'll Be Right Here spans over 80 years and a kaleidoscopic cast of characters (including a few real-life historical figures). We follow them from France to Poughkeepsie, through unconventional relationships, partnerships, and family unions and Amy accomplishes it all within a compact 200 pages. As always, we want to know how she does it. Amy joins Marrie Stone to talk about the novel and how she researched this real and fictional cast of characters. She talks about the best advice she ever received about writing from her father, her inventive use of lists, her use of different forms and structures (including using scripts, epistolary chapters, lists, and more), and why she's always writing in different genres. She saves some of her best advice and insights for the end of the interview, so be sure to stick around. For more information on Writers on Writing and to become a supporter, visit our Patreon page.

In today's complex and noisy world, making decisions that truly align with our values can feel impossible — especially when life has been disrupted by trauma, loss, or change. This week, I'm honored to welcome Somik Raha, author of Invaluable: Achieving Clarity on Value, to the podcast. Somik offers a profound yet practical invitation: to pause, discover, and articulate the unique values already within you — and to integrate them into your decisions with intention. Drawing on philosophy, poetry, citizen science, and moving stories, Somik shows us how clarifying our “values blueprint” not only brings peace and clarity to decision-making but also inspires us to live a life that feels authentic and whole.

The best (worst) episodes always start with a notes app apology from Madison trying to defend her decision to torture herself and Chelsea (and potentially you, dear listener) with a movie no one asked for. This week, our hosts survived watching 1996's "romantic comedy" Jerry Maguire. This movie can't pick a struggle (Tom Cruise, scattered plot, no romance), but by God it can pick a blessing: Regina King. Don't watch the movie, just listen to us discuss it-- you'll thank yourself for sparing your eyes and your time.Connect With UsFollow us on Instagram @loveatfirstscreening or send an email to loveatfirstscreening@gmail.comProduction Hosts: Chelsea Ciccone and Madison HillMusic: Good StephArtwork: Chelsea CicconeSocial Media: Marissa CicconeAbout the ShowAn examination of classic tropes and iconic characters pits connoisseur against cynic—one romantic comedy at a time.

Send us a textHave you ever known someone who is a bit off? It could be a boss, co-worker, or your significant other. It can start with someone too good to be true, filled with charm and fake empathy. Then, they begin to show their true colors by controlling, manipulating, and destroying your life, or worse, ending it. Well, today we are going to be talking about psychopaths and how we can hopefully identify the red flags and protect ourselves from these predators.

In this bold and birthday episode, we get real about what it actually looks like to grow after trauma—and how that growth leads to becoming unfuckwithable. We're not talking about surface-level healing or performance-based self-care. We're talking about reclaiming self-respect, choosing power, and walking away from anything that dishonors your healing. In This Episode: What it means to be unfuckwithable after PTSD Why self-respect is power Letting go of passive-aggressive patterns and low-effort energy A special birthday reflection from Dr. Deb A powerful affirmation to close the episode This episode is a permission slip to: Cut ties with toxic patterns Stop explaining your worth Choose yourself with radical clarity Because when you've survived the unthinkable, you get to protect your peace without apology.

You're going to crush it, friend, because today you're not only going to learn how to be more patient with yourself, but with your kids, too. In this episode I discuss multiple strategies that you can start implementing today that will help you cultivate the patience you want and need to feel like a calmer, more present and more intentional person and parent. And the best part? The more patience we learn and practice the more patient we become and the more peaceful we, our kids and our homes will be. Let's go.

This week, Madison reports to us live from the bottom of a well while waiting for Lassie (at least that's what we assume by the horrendous quality of her audio--truly sorry!) to bring Chelsea the fabulous Sandy B flick While You Were Sleeping (1995). Chelsea surprised us all by actually enjoying the quirky movie, finding the found family story heartwarming despite the odd circumstances that create it. Tangents include peeing in the woods, Chelsea's potential serial killer neighbor, and so much more. Also, we are truly sorry to Bill Pullman for Chelsea pulling a Keke Palmer on you. Madison still thinks you were hot in this movie (but she is ovulating this week, so she still may not be a good judge of character). Connect With UsFollow us on Instagram @loveatfirstscreening or send an email to loveatfirstscreening@gmail.comProduction Hosts: Chelsea Ciccone and Madison HillMusic: Good StephArtwork: Chelsea CicconeSocial Media: Marissa CicconeAbout the ShowAn examination of classic tropes and iconic characters pits connoisseur against cynic—one romantic comedy at a time.

As moms, we do a lot, and many more times than not, we're doing enough. In today's episode, I interview Sabrina Yavil, a wife, mom of 3 boys, and veteran in the beauty industry who shares some insider information and exactly what inspired her to start her own clean line of body products for kids. Sabrina and I met a few weeks back and I thought what she had to share was so important for us to hear as moms. As the founder of Gryme, a brand committed to providing 100% clean, effective care for preteens, Sabrina discussed insights on navigating the crowded personal care market with me. This episode is a valuable discussion for parents wanting to ensure their children's well-being and encourage their independence without adding extra stress (and who doesn't want that?!).

Bringing back an oldie but goodie episode this week! Whether you're hearing it for the first time, or if you heard it when it first aired back in May 2023, I hope you will find some nuggets of wisdom to take away. In this episode, I address questions like: “Did I fall out love with my partner?” “What if I feel love toward my partner, but don't feel IN LOVE with my partner?” “What if we fall out of love in the future…then what?” “If you fall out of love…can you fall back “in love”? I explore what the differences are between being “in love” and “love” and give you new ways of thinking about love that can expand your perspective. Excited to hear what you think of this one! DM me @youloveandyoulearn on Instagram with your thoughts :) And if you are enjoying the podcast, it would mean the world to me if you can leave a review + rate the podcast.

Anxiety has long been a massive societal issue that spiked during the pandemic, and many of us are still feeling it in 2025. In this episode, renowned Buddhist monk Yongey Mingyur Rinpoche talks in detail about how he personally works with anxiety and panic and the practices he draws upon when dealing with these states.  Mingyur began doing long retreats in his teens and now teaches all over the world.  He's written the books The Joy of Living: Unlocking the Secret and Science of Happiness and In Love with the World: A Monk's Journey Through the Bardos of Living and Dying. He also oversees the Tergar Meditation Community, a global network of Buddhist meditation centers.   This episode was originally published in July 2022. In this episode we talk about:  Working with strong emotions using sound and the breath Deconstructing your reality to make it workable Understanding what awareness is in a Buddhist sense  How to make meditation free-range and available to you all times  The simple but also tricky advice of, “stop doing and just be”  When to take a step back or even take a break from meditation What Mingyur Rinpoche says is the true purpose of the practice. This interview was recorded in person at the TED conference in April of 2022, where both Yongey Mingyur Rinpoche and Dan Harris spoke.   Join Dan's online community here Follow Dan on social: Instagram, TikTok Subscribe to our YouTube Channel
