In this episode of the Dethroning Your Inner Critic, I'm diving into why the fire we see “out there” in the world is really a reflection of the wounds we carry within—and how fear can actually become the path to your transformation. From breaking cycles of shame and comparison, to embodying the emotions of the life you want now, to remembering you are who you practice being—this episode is a call to heal from the inside out. ✨ If you're ready to stop fueling the fire of fear and start becoming the light, this conversation is for you. Your weekly reflection questions: Where in my life am I still seeing the “other” as the enemy instead of remembering there is only we? What emotion am I practicing daily—and how is it shaping the reality I'm living? What discomfort am I avoiding that might actually hold the key to my healing and growth?

Although Heather is stepping away as co-host, she's still active in the Day Makers community, leading coaching calls and supporting people on their alcohol-free journeys.

Dr. Laura welcomes Jana Boyko, business coach and author of Bedside Business Plan and the upcoming Employee to Entrepreneur, to the podcast for a conversation on entrepreneurship and self confidence. Jana describes her journey from doing a BCom and working for a marketing firm to striking out on her own as an entrepreneur and the failures and successes she experienced on that path. Dr. Laura learns how Jana's guided journals are designed to guide entrepreneurs through the steps of starting a business with a focus on understanding ourselves and our ideas. Jana chose the guided journal format for both Bedside Business Plan and Employee to Entrepreneur because of the enlightening experience she had when she put pen to paper and removed the barrier of the screen from her journaling. Dr. Laura and Jana discuss that what holds entrepreneurs, especially woman, back from business success isn't necessarily a lack of business skills but a prevailing sense of self-doubt and fear of judgment. Businesses aren't built in isolation but in connection, support, and learning from those who went before, and this episode highlights how Jana is laying a foundation for true understanding of the journey ahead, based on her own insights, for future entrepreneurs.“Make a list of 20 reasons why you are going to be a successful entrepreneur. Include your past, you know, achievements, personality traits, things people love about you, great feedback you've gotten in the past, and then reference that list every single day. Because I think especially when you're entering new territory as an entrepreneur, you feel so wobbly. I felt so wobbly when I when I became an entrepreneur, even though I had the business background. But it's really important to fortify yourself and to remember who you are in this experience, and to remember everything that you are bringing to entrepreneurship, so that when self-doubt does come up, when the fear does come up, you can really have this list that sort of replaces that fear, right?” - Jana BoykoAbout Jana Boyko:In the last decade, Jana has worked with over 100 brands and businesses from the very small to the very big. She's the author of Bedside Business Plan, a guided journal for aspiring entrepreneurs, which has climbed to national success since launching with Indigo in 2022 and being named a Staff Pick in January 2023. Jana's body of work is dedicated to helping people expand into their highest potential while building businesses in ways that are both sustainable and life-giving. She has been featured as an expert on CBC, Breakfast Television, and The Eyeopener in addition to delivering a number of important talks at organizations and institutions like Elate Cosmetics, the University of Calgary, and Royal Roads University.Jana's second guided journal, Employee to Entrepreneur, is available for pre-order now.Resources:Website: BedsideBusinessPlan.comLinkedIn: JanaBoykoLinkedIn: Bedside-Business-PlanInstagram: @bedsidebusinessplanTiktok: @bedsidebusinessplanFacebook: BedsideBusinessPlanConfessions of a Female Founder with Meghan podcastLearn more about Dr. Laura on her website: https://drlaura.liveFor more resources, look into Dr. Laura's organizations: Canada Career CounsellingSynthesis Psychology

Energetic transformation is here. The old is decaying, calling you into spiritual surrender and the sanctuary of the Shaman’s Inner Cave — a space of safety, protection, and emergence. At the heart of this passage lies a major, long-standing false story — an illusion that has kept you bound in cycles on repeat, most often within relationship. Now it rises to confront you, calling you to finally break free of its grasp. This is not surface change. It is the stripping away of illusion at its root, dissolving false stories and beliefs that kept you projecting outward instead of reclaiming your power within. It is a time of deep letting go — a powerful surrender into the truth that unconditional love has always been present, even as grief, vulnerability, and release may arise. In this episode, Kaye guides you into the Shaman’s Inner Cave — a sacred space that cocoons you in safety and support while the new takes form, all while you continue to function in your world with responsibilities. You will learn how to: Enter the cave as sanctuary while engaging in daily life Work with the natural process of energetic decay, not against it Stay anchored in heart–mind coherence as old patterns dissolve Call upon Source, Soul, and your Successful Self to hold steady through the passage This is a powerful remembering — that you are not alone. The cave holds you, the practices guide you, and your inner knowing leads you forward. ✨ Are you ready to enter the cave, release what can no longer exist, and walk with the new bones of your becoming?

In this episode of the Dethroning Your Inner Critic podcast, I'm diving deep into one of the biggest mindset shifts I've ever made—learning that life doesn't have to be hard to be meaningful. I'm unpacking how we've been conditioned to equate worth with struggle, and how that belief quietly fuels burnout, anxiety, and self-doubt. If you're tired of pushing, proving, and forcing things to happen, this conversation will feel like a permission slip to live differently. ✨ Tune in and discover how ease, alignment, and trust can become your new baseline. Your weekly reflection questions: In what area of your life are you still holding onto the belief that struggle equals worthiness? Where do things already flow effortlessly for you—and what belief might be supporting that ease? What story has your Inner Critic been telling you that it's time to unhook from?

In this episode, we discuss the beginning of Jesus's public ministry, which started with a 40-day retreat in the desert. We explore the idea of a "wild place" not as a solitary escape, but as a space to encounter new voices and perspectives. Inspired by creative thinkers, we discuss how intentionally "disappearing" from our routines can open us up to new ideas and insights, allowing us to become better "receivers".

- Join The Guild - CLICK HERE TO LEARN MORE—Most people don't quit diets because the plan failed. They quit because of the conversations happening inside their own head. The way you speak to yourself determines whether you persist through setbacks or spiral into giving up.In this episode, Chris unpacks the role of self-talk in long-term weight loss and identity change. You'll hear personal stories, lessons from coaching, and practical tools you can begin using right away to change the way you treat yourself.⸻Key Takeaways • Self-talk shapes identity. The way you describe yourself becomes the way you act, so harsh inner dialogue only reinforces old patterns.Stop making it personal. Critique your behaviors, not your character. Hold yourself accountable without tearing yourself down.Leave wiggle room. Replace absolutes like “I always fail” with flexible language that leaves space for growth.Practice daily compliments and gratitude. Look for reasons to praise yourself—your brain will start seeking positives instead of negatives.Apologize to yourself. If you catch yourself being cruel, stop, correct it, and move on. This rebuilds trust with yourself.⸻Why It MattersWhen you improve your self-talk, you do more than ease the weight-loss journey. You create a healthier relationship with accountability, both with yourself and with others. This isn't fluff—it's a skill that can change how you approach every challenge in your life.

The Dad Edge Podcast (formerly The Good Dad Project Podcast)
In this powerful episode of the Dad Edge Podcast, I sit down with Dr. Blaise Aguirre, a Harvard psychiatrist and global expert on adolescent mental health, to unpack one of the most important—and often overlooked—parts of parenting: the inner voice we help shape in our kids. We dive into the role of tone, discipline, and compassion in parenting, and how the words we use as fathers often become the voice our kids carry for life. Dr. Aguirre breaks down how to raise resilient, critical thinkers without crushing their confidence, and why creating an environment of both structure and safety is essential to building emotionally healthy children. If you've ever wondered how to balance discipline with grace, or how to stop fueling your child's inner critic, this conversation is a must-listen. TIMELINE SUMMARY [0:00] - Introduction to the Dad Edge movement and today's topic on kids' inner voice [2:24] - Why your tone as a father becomes your child's inner dialogue [4:58] - Dr. Aguirre's background and 25 years at Harvard [7:10] - How the inner critic forms in childhood [9:37] - The difference between helpful self-reflection and harmful self-hatred [13:05] - Signs your child may be struggling with a damaging inner voice [15:32] - Why “what's wrong with you?” is one of the most destructive phrases a dad can say [18:30] - The role of technology and peer influence on self-worth [21:03] - How to raise critical thinkers who don't default to catastrophizing [25:51] - Emotional regulation: why your calm becomes their calm [28:08] - Addressing bullying and teaching kids which voices to trust [30:22] - Why negativity sticks more than praise (and how to counter it) [34:04] - Finding balance between praise, discipline, and boundaries [36:55] - The difference between punishment and effective discipline [42:12] - Repairing mistakes as a parent and the power of apology [47:14] - Creating psychological safety at home so kids feel seen and heard [51:16] - Why fear-based parenting backfires and undermines performance [55:07] - The dangers of boundary-less parenting and raising entitled kids [57:43] - Wrapping it all together: structure + compassion = resilience 5 KEY TAKEAWAYS 1. Your Voice Becomes Their Voice The tone you use with your kids doesn't just shape the moment—it shapes the inner dialogue they carry into adulthood. 2. Discipline Must Be Tied to Behavior, Not Identity Punishment that attacks who a child is damages self-worth. Effective discipline connects consequences to actions while preserving dignity. 3. Safety Builds Confidence Kids thrive when they know they're safe to fail, safe to talk, and safe to be themselves at home. Psychological safety is the foundation of resilience. 4. Emotional Regulation Is Contagious When fathers stay calm, they teach kids how to regulate their own emotions. Your calm presence can be the anchor in their storms. 5. Balance Is Key Parenting that blends structure, limits, and grace raises children who are both confident and resilient—ready to face life with critical thinking and courage.
