What if the most important form of self-care has nothing to do with bubble baths or vacations? In this episode, Dr. Margaret Paul explores one of the most overlooked dimensions of true self-care: learning to validate yourself. While external self-care has its place, she explains that no amount of outside validation from a partner, a parent, a boss, or social media can heal the wound of self-invalidation. That healing only happens from the inside. Dr. Paul walks through why so many people grow up dependent on others to reflect their worth, what self-validation actually means (and what it does not), and how learning to see, hear, and honor your own inner experience transforms not just your relationship with yourself but with everyone around you. She shares practical ways to begin practicing self-validation, including how to name your feelings with compassion, mirror your soul's qualities back to yourself, and stop outsourcing your emotional authority to others. Come explore the deeper meaning of self-care in Self-Care: How to Validate Yourself and begin building the kind of inner safety that no one else can take away. Enjoy the podcast?

Are you doing inner child work but still feeling stuck, anxious, or emotionally overwhelmed? In this eye-opening episode, Dr. Margaret Paul addresses one of the most important and most misunderstood topics in the healing space: what inner child work actually is, and the common mistakes that can inadvertently reinforce the very wounds you are trying to heal. Dr. Paul begins by drawing a crucial distinction between the soulful inner child and the wounded self that developed in response to fear and false beliefs, and walks through the key mistakes she sees again and again: giving the wounded child too much power, confusing love with indulgence, using inner child work to avoid adult responsibility, staying focused on pain without bringing in love and guidance, trying to fix the inner child rather than develop the loving adult, and attempting this work without a connection to something greater than the ego.

We talk through what to do before your dancer leaves, how to handle drop-off day, and what to expect once they're there. We also get into the stuff nobody warns you about: what a scholarship really signals, how to handle the tap-on-the-shoulder conversation about year-round enrollment, navigating roommate issues, and what to do if your kid gets in trouble -- and yes, we are speaking from experience on that last one.

How do you tell the difference between a true spiritual teacher and someone who is subtly using you? In this timely and thought-provoking episode, Dr. Margaret Paul tackles a topic that is as widespread as it is rarely addressed: spiritual deception. Not the obvious, overt kind — but the subtle kind, where false prophets speak kindly, share genuine insight, and still manage to keep you dependent, doubtful, and disconnected from your own inner authority. Dr. Paul explains that a false prophet is not defined by what they say, but by their intent. She walks through the key red flags to watch for, the qualities that distinguish true spiritual teachers from those seeking power, and why the most important protection is a strong connection to your own inner and higher knowing.  Come explore how to develop discernment, strengthen your loving adult, and learn to trust truth over charm in Discerning False Prophets here on the Inner Bonding podcast.   Enjoy the podcast?

What does it actually mean to take emotional responsibility — and why do so many of us get it wrong? In this illuminating episode, Dr. Margaret Paul cuts through the confusion around one of the most misunderstood concepts in personal growth. She explains why emotional responsibility is not self-blame and certainly not a burden. True emotional responsibility is an act of love — toward yourself and toward the inner child who carries your deepest feelings and needs your compassionate presence. Dr. Paul explores how the wounded self distorts emotional responsibility into shame, how fear keeps us from showing up for our own feelings, and what it looks like to become the loving, compassionate adult your inner child has always needed. She also draws a powerful distinction between self-blame, which comes from fear, and true responsibility, which comes from love — and shows how that shift alone can begin to transform your inner world. Come explore Emotional Responsibility and What It Really Means, and begin the journey toward genuine emotional freedom, deeper relationships, and a more grounded, peaceful self.   Enjoy the podcast?

A lot of dancers are told to “just smile more” or “feel the music”… but what if facial expressions in dance are actually a TRAINED skill?In this episode, I'm breaking down 3 huge myths about facial expressions and performance quality that keep dancers looking awkward, disconnected, or uncomfortable on stage — even when they're technically strong dancers.We'll talk about:✨ Why expression does NOT just come naturally✨ Why confidence usually isn't the real issue✨ How dancers can actually train performance skills intentionallyIf your dancer struggles with stage presence, performance quality, or connecting emotionally on stage, this episode will help you understand what's really going on — and what to do about it.

Have you ever felt yourself slowly disappearing in a relationship? In this deeply moving episode, Dr. Margaret Paul explores one of the most common — and most overlooked — blocks to true intimacy: self-abandonment. She unpacks why so many of us lose our voice, our needs, and our sense of self in relationships, and what it truly takes to love deeply without betraying yourself. Dr. Paul guides us through the critical difference between love and attachment, how fear-based relating leads to resentment and emptiness, and why two whole, self-connected people are the foundation of any genuinely loving relationship. She also shares how the Inner Bonding process helps you develop the loving adult within — so you can show up honestly, set loving limits, and experience the kind of closeness that doesn't come at the cost of who you are.

How often do you say an affirmation, but don't follow it with action? In this powerful episode, Dr. Margaret Paul explores how to create loving affirmations that truly support the outcomes we desire, and how taking aligned, loving action is essential to manifesting our gifts and purpose. She dives into how we define our sense of worth, why our efforts matter more than outcomes, and how our intentions shape the quality of our relationships. As loving actions create loving feelings, she reminds us that the wounded self often drives false beliefs. By returning to our personal power and emotional freedom, we can begin to make our affirmations genuinely work for us.   Come explore how to align your inner voice with meaningful action in Why Affirmations Might Fail Without Inner Bonding, and begin showing up for yourself in a way that truly supports your growth.   Enjoy the podcast?

With practice, you can become a loving adult father to yourself, even if you never had one. In today's episode, Dr. Margaret Paul dives into how the “loving adult father” shows up in our lives, why we need both the nurturing energy of an inner mother and the action-oriented guidance of an inner father, and how intentional self-compassion becomes the catalyst for real transformation. Because without that inner loving father, the inner child can feel unseen and abandoned. But when you choose to lead yourself with love, you create space for deeper peace, stability, and joy in every area of your life. Listen in as we explore how real growth isn't just about awareness — it's about choosing loving actions, setting boundaries that honor your worth, and becoming the steady, supportive presence you've always needed.   Enjoy the podcast?

When your symptoms shift daily and no one, not even your doctor, can give you clear answers, the hypervigilance can feel like the only rational response. But what if that constant scanning is actually making your nervous system harder to calm, and there's a way to work with it instead of against it?In this episode, you'll hear from Dr. Amanda Whitehouse, licensed psychologist specializing in anxiety and trauma related to food allergies and mast cell conditions. She reframes nervous system regulation not as a reset button, but as a slow, trust-building process, and explains why that distinction matters more than most people realize.Connect with Destiny:  Instagram / Facebook / Website______________________________

Are you aware of how deeply your thoughts shape your relationships? In this episode, Dr. Margaret Paul explores how our thoughts directly influence our actions, our relationships, and the decisions we make. She unpacks how more supportive, compassionate thoughts can help us feel grounded and authentic, how our thinking shapes our access to inner and spiritual guidance, and why awareness and intentionality are powerful tools for shifting from a controlling mindset to a loving one. The wounded self often speaks with urgency and fear—but it does not reflect the full truth of who you are. The loving adult speaks with clarity, steadiness, and compassion, and reflects your inherent worth. Tune in as we explore how to shift from the wounded self into the loving adult—so you can show up in your life and relationships with greater trust, clarity, and self-worth.   Enjoy the podcast?

Is your kindness truly coming from love… or from fear? Many of us believe we are being kind when we are actually being “nice” to avoid rejection, conflict, or disapproval. But this form of niceness often leads to self-abandonment—saying yes when we mean no, hiding our truth, and overriding our needs to keep the peace. In this episode, Dr. Margaret Paul explores the difference between ego-driven niceness and authentic kindness that comes from the Loving Adult. Discover how true kindness does not require you to betray yourself, and how it becomes a powerful force for emotional healing, nervous system regulation, and deeper connection. If you've ever struggled with people-pleasing, setting boundaries, or being kind without losing yourself, this conversation will help you reconnect with your truth and experience kindness as strength—not weakness.

A therapy intensive can be one of the best ways to work with new clients when your private practice is full and inquiries keep rolling in. Most therapists default to a waitlist or refer people out, but this third option could seriously increase your monthly income.In today's episode, I talk about how one of my clients used a therapy intensive to convert a consult call into a same-month booking, without the potential client feeling disappointed or misled. I share the exact language you can use on a 10-minute consult call to present a therapy intensive as the obvious best fit, why your energy and attitude when delivering this information matters more than you think, and what happened when my client implemented this strategy the very same day I coached her on it.If your private practice is full but your inquiries aren't slowing down, this episode will completely change how you think about your next consult call.Topics covered on Therapy Intensive:The third option nobody talks about when new inquiries keep coming in and you have zero weekly spotsTherapy intensive can get clients faster results without the long term commitment of weekly therapy sessionsThe exact way I coach my clients to pitch a therapy intensive on a 10 minute consult call without apologizing or overexplainingThe one mindset shift that will completely change how potential clients react to you on consult callsAssuming your client will be disappointed is the fastest way to guarantee they actually will beResources from this episode:Liberated Business: www.thebadtherapist.coach/liberatedbusinessConnect with Felicia:Get my freebie & join the email list: The Magic SheetsInstagram: @the_bad_therapistWebsite: www.thebadtherapist.coachRelated episodes:Devotional Sales: My Sales Practice That Will Turn Consult Calls into Clients [Ep 56]How Therapy Intensives Can Rescue Your Private Practice from the Summer Scaries [Ep 119]Therapist Consult Call: The Simple Fix to Boost Your Client Conversion Rates [Ep 89]Quote:"If you show up like you're delivering bad news, your client is going to receive it like bad news.

Is your "wounded self" keeping you in a cycle of blame and victimhood? Many people feel trapped in situations they think they can't control. When this happens, it's easy to focus on external problems and hope others will change. In this episode, Dr. Margaret Paul explains why this outward focus often keeps people feeling powerless and stuck. She explores how the “wounded self” leads to patterns of blame, self-judgment, and victimhood—and why real change begins by turning inward. Through the Inner Bonding® process, Dr. Paul shares how shifting false beliefs, raising your emotional frequency, and becoming open to learning can help you break free from stuck patterns. When we feel stuck, it's easy to focus on external problems, but real freedom begins by turning inward. Listen in as we unpack how to reclaim your power and reconnect with your inner guidance.

Couples therapy can be some of the most rewarding work we do as therapists, but it can also be one of the most challenging. Many couples don't reach out for help until things feel like they're falling apart. By the time they sit down in your office, there are often years of resentment, hurt, and miscommunication built up beneath the surface. In this episode, I'm joined by Dr. Wyatt Fisher, a psychologist and couples therapist who has spent years refining his approach to helping couples work through those deeper issues. Wyatt shares how his own personal and professional experiences shaped his work with couples and why he eventually moved away from the traditional weekly therapy model. We talk about the power of marriage intensives, how addressing resentments first can change the entire course of therapy, and some of the practical tools he uses to help couples rebuild connection and accountability. Wyatt also shares how he's structured his practice to include intensives, coaching, classes, and conferences to create a more comprehensive model for helping couples. If you work with couples or have ever wondered how to structure therapy so couples can make real progress faster, I think you'll find this conversation really interesting.

Many people believe that their inner child is running their life, but what if that belief is actually keeping them stuck? In this episode, Dr. Margaret Paul clarifies why this common assumption is not only inaccurate but often harmful to true healing. She explains how Inner Bonding defines the inner child as the soul self—our true essence of love, compassion, creativity, and joy. She contrasts this with the wounded child, or ego-wounded self, which is formed through false beliefs and fears absorbed during childhood and throughout life. By understanding this distinction, you can stop blaming your feelings and begin using them as valuable inner guidance.

What does it truly mean to take loving care of yourself without guilt? In this episode, Dr. Margaret Paul explores the profound difference between surface-level self-care and deep emotional self-responsibility. Moving beyond spa days and external fixes, she invites you into a compassionate understanding of emotional self-care—learning to listen inwardly, honor your feelings, and respond to your inner needs with love rather than judgment. Dr. Paul explains how tuning into your feelings allows you to recognize when you're abandoning yourself and how guilt, anxiety, depression, and shame often signal a call for deeper self-attunement. Through the lens of the Inner Bonding® process, she reveals why loving yourself is not selfish, but essential for healthy relationships, emotional fulfillment, and authentic connection with others.

We've reached a point where purposeful work is mislabeled as “hustle,” while self-abandonment, burnout, and over-performance are praised as discipline and success.Work is not the problem. Action is not the problem. Creation is not the problem.
