Episode Overview:  In this episode, we dive into the sensitive topic of abuse with Dr. Jennifer Gardella. Jennifer shares her personal journey through abusive relationships, highlighting the subtle and often overlooked signs of abuse. This episode serves as a guide to recognizing, understanding, and healing from abuse.    Key Points:    Jennifer's Story:    Jennifer explains how abuse can start subtly, often with a belief system instilled from a young age that one is not worthy and must depend on others.  She shares her experience of unknowingly attaching herself to an abuser who initially seemed perfect, a process known as love bombing.    Understanding Love Bombing:    Love bombing involves excessive compliments, gifts, and attention early in the relationship, creating a trauma bond.  Examples include lavish gifts and expensive vacations within weeks of meeting.    The Cycle of Abuse:    Abusers slowly pull their victims deeper into the relationship, gaining control and manipulating them.  Jennifer discusses how her abuser encouraged her to move in with him and gradually isolated her from her own life and career.  Impact on Family:    Jennifer's children played a significant role in her realization and escape from the abusive relationship.  Her children saw the abuse and were instrumental in encouraging her to leave.    The Role of COVID-19:    The pandemic acted as a catalyst for Jennifer to leave her abusive situation.  She shares how she and her daughters used the opportunity to move out and start anew.    Recognizing Domestic Violence:    Domestic violence is a systematic pattern of power and control, not just physical abuse.  It includes emotional, psychological, and financial manipulation.  Healing Journey:    Jennifer emphasizes the importance of doing the work to heal, including therapy, support groups, and programs.  She highlights the effectiveness of EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) in her healing process.    Advice for Victims and Supporters:    For victims: It's okay to take time to leave; do safety planning.  For supporters: Be gentle and supportive, understanding the complexities of leaving an abusive relationship.  For everyone: Do the work to heal, and find a specialist or program that resonates with you.  Final Thoughts:    Jennifer encourages everyone to seek help and support, emphasizing that healing is a personal journey that can be done privately.  Learn More About Dr. Jennifer Gardella:    Visit her website: JenniferGardella.com (under construction but accessible).  Resources:  The PBT Institute: https://thepbtinstitute.com 

UNMASKED: Love Bombing and Trauma Bonds with Dr. Jennifer Gardella Dr. Jennifer Gardella once believed that domestic violence could never happen to her, yet she found herself ensnared in a web of subtle yet insidious abuse. In this deeply personal and enlightening episode of Real Talk, Real Women Breaking the Silence Around Abuse, she bravely shares her journey of recognizing the microaggressions, emotional manipulation, and financial control that slowly eroded her sense of self. We examine the sinister strategies abusers employ, such as love bombing and trauma bonding, to maintain their grip, making victims feel isolated and responsible for their own mistreatment.   Throughout our conversation, we explore the emotional and psychological scars left by abuse, the complexities of escaping such a relationship, and the critical importance of supportive networks. Jennifer's dual perspective as both a survivor and a domestic violence impactful public speaker provides invaluable insights into the barriers victims face, from financial dependency to custody issues.   We also cover essential steps for safety planning and the vital first steps toward freedom. Join us in raising awareness and offering hope and support to those battling the hidden horrors of domestic violence.   Dr. Jennifer Gardella's bio Jennifer Gardella, Ph.D., is a survivor of domestic violence and a passionate advocate now raising awareness about this pervasive issue. In her debut book "Domestic Violence Awareness: Listen for the Whispers of Abuse" Jennifer shares the remarkable journey she took transforming from victim to advocate. In the throes of the abusive relationship, Jennifer did not know that it was domestic violence nor that her abuser was slowly dismantling her well-being and life. It was only after her escape that she began to comprehend the intricate layers of abuse and manipulation she had endured. With unwavering determination, Jennifer has now made it her mission to educate others, ensuring that victims and their friends, loved ones, family members, and colleagues understand that domestic violence extends far beyond physical harm. Her writing focuses on the tactics used by abusers, including emotional and psychological abuse. She emphasizes that we need to keep looking for abuse but also start listening to the stories of victims. Jennifer wants to empower individuals to recognize the signs, offer support, and ultimately help victims break the cycle of domestic violence. In Jennifer's personal life, she adores her three fabulous adulting children, her dog Henry, and a great guy who recently slipped an ice-skating rink on her finger. She loves spending time with her circle of trust, to whom she is eternally grateful, as they each played a critical part in her escape. Jennifer completed her undergraduate work at Fordham University and earned a master's and Ph.D. in educational psychology and statistics from Rutgers University. In her professional life she is a digital marketing consultant with expertise in helping business owners reach ideal clients using blogging and social media. Jennifer looks forward to connecting with readers and those who work in the domestic violence space.

Brilliantly Resilient is back!! After some much needed time off, B.R. is back with new episodes, amazing guests, and more inspiration for you to live a Brilliantly Resilient life. Let us know what you think and reach out at howdy@brilliantlyresilient.net. Be sure to check out www.brilliantlyresilient.net for more! And now, on with the show! Who is to say my day is worth nothing? Take your power back and say "I get to choose." ~ Dr. Jennifer Gardella Are you an entrepreneur or just starting a business? Do you have an area of expertise that has value in the business marketplace? Or are you a "professional volunteer" expected to put up your hand every time someone needs something? It's often difficult to put a value on what we do, particularly if you are just starting a business or do work in an area with societal impact. It's not unusual for people to expect you to give your time or products away for free, or minimal value, especially if you are a woman. (It's hard to believe a man would be asked to give of his time or work for free.) And if you are a known volunteer, it can often feel like your life is up for grabs for anyone who needs anything. On this week's episode, Dr. Jennifer Gardella shares important insights on how to value your work and your time, starting with learning to value yourself.  Dr. Gardella notes that setting boundaries is the first step in taking back your power--and not everyone is going to like it. When we put up boundaries, those who are used to having us behave in a certain way (read--be available on their terms) won't be happy when told, "No." But a little pain will be worth a lot of gain--for you. Tune in for a strategy to accomplish your personal power grab (Awareness, education, empowerment and growth), and be sure to listen for these additional bits of brilliance: You have to get paid for your expertise. You can still do things for free, but you get to choose what and when. Awareness and education lead to empowerment and growth. Your business and personal lives are very enmeshed. Where are your boundaries? You have the right to say, "This is how I'm spending my time." Be ready to acknowledge that things are not working. Dig deep and keep asking "Why?"

We are always looking for signs of domestic violence, but we hear them more often than we see them. Domestic violence doesn't always look like broken bones and bruises. I was living in domestic abuse and I didn't even know it. ~ Dr. Jennifer Gardella Do you know anyone who is experiencing domestic abuse? Are you sure? As Dr. Jennifer Gardella aptly notes, domestic abuse is not always visible. In fact, if we listen, we can “hear” domestic abuse more often than we can see it. Cutting through all areas of class, education or outward success, many women are experiencing domestic abuse, but because they don't have the physical bruises to show for it, they themselves don't always recognize that they are living with domestic violence. In her new book, Listen for the Whispers of Abuse, Dr. Gardella, herself a victim of domestic abuse, offers signs of abuse including: Feeling you are always “walking on eggshells” around your partner. Having no control over your money or your personal schedule. Not being allowed to make decisions. Being told you are “crazy” or being yelled at for somehow not measuring up to your partner's expectations. Here at Brilliantly Resilient, we know the importance of a tribe. If you suspect a loved one is experiencing domestic abuse, here are some of Dr. Gardella's suggestions to lend support to the victim: “If you hear any inkling of ‘I need to get out of here' start to talk to your loved one about safety planning.” “Let her know that wherever she is on her journey, you are a safe space and will support her no matter what.” “Reach out to other friends and ask ‘Are we all seeing this?'” “Drip information whenever you can.” Be sure to tune into this episode of The Brilliantly Resilient podcast, get Dr. Gardella's book, and call the National Domestic Violence Hotline at 800-799-7233 for more information.

Jennifer Gardella, Ph.D. works with a select group of clients supporting them with weekly blogging and daily social media. Using her time-tested strategies she positions her clients as experts and their business as the go-to place for their goods and services.  And, for clients who grew up with the phone attached to the kitchen wall, Dr. Gardella get them out of overwhelm using her superpower of explaining things in small pieces for understanding.   Dr. Gardella has had quite an interesting path to success and will share some of that story with us today.  The highlights include earning a PhD in Educational Psychology from Rutgers University, starting her business from scratch at the age of 45, blogging for the Huffington Post, presenting a TEDx Talk, and speaking at the PA Conference for Women.  Dr. Gardella was raised in New Jersey by New Yorker parents and appreciates relationships built on integrity, loyalty, and shared sarcasm.  She now resides in Bucks County, PA while her three daughters are launching into the world.  In her spare time you can find her exercising, writing her blog, breaking bread with her circle of trust, and working on her golf game.  She is an avid goal setter with three simple ones for this year - feel free to reach out and ask her what she's working on. In this episode… What are your goals? Do you have too many? What the reason behind each goal? Knowing your why is perhaps the single most important spect of intentionality. After all, you can't get anywhere if you don't know where to want to be. In this episode of An Unconventional Life, Dr. Jennifer Gardella and Dr. Russell Strickland discuss how busy you can be "doing nothing," the power of focus, and making bunny slippers a lifestyle choice. Dr. Gardella's doctoral dream began after raising her three kids to school age and being challenged by the university's admissions to prove that she'd done anything over the past decade. Research, relationships, and resiliency took Dr. Gardella from there to graduation and beyond. She now runs her own business where is guides business owners through the straits of social media to the open seas of exposure, visibility, and profits. According to Dr. Gardella, goal-setting muscles are great, but so are restraint and focus. When she had twenty simultaneous goals, she found it hard to be productive. Now, she has just three goals for the year and feels like her clarity and focus are much better. What are you focussed on right now?

Welcome to the second week of Hot Mess to Great Success, a podcast dedicated to helping you get all or certain aspects of your life in order.  Remember, you don't have to shout your disorganization from the rooftop or hire and expensive coach.  Jennifer walks you though her process of getting her business and life together and provides just enough encouragement for you to do the same. This week: Getting organized for success Get the fighter back Rebranding Lessons I learned this week: Checking off vs. doing:  What an insane week I had attempting to track my goals and get work done.  I was temporarily wrapped up in doing vs. being in the moment.  I think I was a bit overwhelmed. I was trying to be a slave to checking off.  I realized I'll have to settle into my systems and possibly adjust.  Every single time I turned around something else popped up related to any accomplishment.  To survive, I took a step back and didn't let this shut me down.  I stuck to the plan. Did not account for the short week.  This shows me the importance of planning.  As an only mom there are many times during the week when I need to be present for my kids at an event.  This week is no excepting and I need to do a better job preparing for it. Most importantly, I realized that getting behind creates stress.  So, I'm going to build time to get ahead to account for expected and also unexpected events. Jen’s Wins for the Week (important to acknowledge your accomplishments!) Did my MDBs for sales and self. 5 hours of writing my book Bar association cover letter is done Blogging - Video - Slideshare Ceo day for Friday was done Spotify accepted my podcast So here are my three big thoughts for the week: Topic 1:  Set Yourself Up for Success Use Google Drive - Google drive is cloud computing that is easy to access with your gmail account.   I love it because it allows me to work with clients and staff on documents that are live - we don't have to save a document, send it in email, and send it back to someone.  It is super easy to access on computer, laptop and phone. When I have to search for anything I get bogged down - so I heavily use my Google toolbar to save links to documents and folders. Go!  Document - this is my document that starts out my day and has links to the Google drive documents, spreadsheets and folders I use most often.  Again, helps me to keep moving. OneTab  - this is an extension for the Google Toolbar.  You can create sets of browser tabs you want to open as a group.  For instance, when I blog I want my editorial calendar, website, youtube, and SlideShare.  Rather than open each one (which requires me searching for them, I just go into OneTab and open them all at once. When I want to work on Sales, OneTab can open my prospect file, Infusionsoft and KIT system in one click. Topic 2:  Get the fighter back.  For quite some time I have taken rejection and moved on - not that I accepted it, but I would put any follow-up on the back burner.  One area has been my affiliate program - I wasn't fighting for it.  I would apply and get rejected and then not question or reapply.  This week I contacted GoDaddy to inquire about my rejection - I didn't freak out, I just asked and appealed.  And ya know what, I was accepted. What are some things that you have rolled over on?  Have they held you back? Topic 3:  What is a true rebrand and how you should do it - Rebranding your business or endeavor is a huge undertaking that should be done every 2-3 years.  I had a very interesting email from a client on Jan 2nd - they had changed the name of the firm, taken on two partners, and wanted a new logo put in place for their rebrand.  I know the process well, as I am going through it on www.Jennifer Gardella.com.  Usually creating one thing, like a logo, creates an avalanche of change.  A rebrand can be done in one big swoop (and is usually very expen...
