Healing starts when we give kids the words to express what's in their hearts. Vladimir Sainte's journey—from a childhood where emotions were silenced to becoming a powerful voice for emotional literacy—is a testament to the impact of breaking generational cycles with compassion and intention. Through his work as a therapist and children's book author, he's helping families create space for real conversations, teaching young minds that their feelings are valid and their voices matter. His story is a moving reminder that when we lead with connection, community, and care, we not only raise resilient kids—we change the future. Key Takeaways: Emotional literacy begins at home—using simple check-ins and daily conversations builds trust and awareness. Storytelling is a powerful tool for helping kids feel seen, heard, and understood, especially during difficult times. Parents and caregivers can shift behavior patterns by choosing connection before correction. Busy doesn't always mean better—intentional time and boundaries support healthier, happier families. Supporting children's mental health starts with adults doing their own healing and showing up with grace.   About Vladimir Sainte: Vladimir Sainte was born and raised in Queens, New York, to Haitian immigrant parents. He is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over a decade of experience and has significantly contributed to the Kansas City community as a child therapist and children's book author. In 2022, Mr. Sainte won Best Local Author from The Pitch magazine for his efforts to promote emotional literacy among young children. He holds a Bachelor of Arts in Sociology and a Master of Social Work from the University of Missouri-Kansas City. Drawing on his experience, he now writes and illustrates children's books that convey messages of resilience and hope. His first book, “Just Like a Hero,” was featured in a video by KCPT – Kansas City PBS, and he has conducted numerous author visits at schools throughout the area. He hopes to share his stories with children nationwide. vladimirsainte.com    Connect with Dr. Michelle and Bayleigh at: https://smallchangesbigshifts.com hello@smallchangesbigshifts.com https://www.linkedin.com/company/smallchangesbigshifts https://www.facebook.com/SmallChangesBigShifts https://www.instagram.com/smallchangesbigshiftsco   Thanks for listening!

Having one's identity tied to an external source or outcome such as a job or physical skill can prove to be detrimental. Joe Fuller, today's Success is Subjective guest, knows this plight firsthand. A highly driven child, Joe had his mind made up to become a professional baseball player. Not only did he have the passion for it, he had the discipline and raw talent that may have taken him all the way to the big leagues. That pictured future was obliterated when unforeseen life circumstances would erase any possibility of going pro. With his identity as a baseball player abruptly stripped away, Joe spiraled into years of identity seeking and pain numbing behaviors. Today, he shares with Joanna and listeners that while his life had many less than favorable detours, he wouldn't trade any of his past because it's what brought him to where he is today – a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with his own private counseling practice. Joe shares his gratitude and zeal for the work he does today, as he helps others cultivate a sense of identity in who they are, rather than what they do. This episode is heartfelt and down to earth, making it relatable for any listener and one that you don't want to miss. Joe's Resources:Rhythm in Harmony CounselingIgnite AdulthoodConnect with Joanna Lilley  Therapeutic Consulting AssociationLilley Consulting WebsiteLilley Consulting on Facebook Lilley Consulting on YouTubeEmail joanna@lilleyconsulting.com#TherapeuticConsulting #LilleyConsulting #Successful #YoungAdults #TherapeuticPrograms #Therapy #MentalHealthMatters #Podcast #PodcastCommunity #StudentMentalHealth #TheJourney #SuccessIsSubjectivePodcast #TheUnpavedRoad #PFCAudioVideo #PainRelief #Addiction #AddictionRecovery #SobrietyJourney

Aren't we all supposed to help each other? Most of us are taught that to be helpful is to be loving. How do we know when we help too much? And how do we know when helping someone else actually hurts them or even us? Have you ever helped someone without them even asking? Not helping someone for many is counterintuitive, yet what is actually needed. Listen to this episode to get some tools on how to give yourself a moment to think before agreeing to help someone!  Suze Gadol Anderson lives in Eugene, Oregon.

It's weird to think that we don't always know what we're thinking deep down. What's even stranger is how our unconscious core beliefs can affect every part of us, internally and externally!   There are keys to gaining insight into unconscious beliefs. There is such power in becoming aware of a lens that colors our view of the world because then we change that core belief! As the belief changes, so do our emotions and behaviors, leading to feeling better!    Suze Gadol Anderson lives in Eugene, Oregon.

As mentioned in the show: Find Gabrielle — and US-based therapy — online at therapyforwomencenter.com. Gabrielle's Instagram is @livewellwithgabrielle. About Gabrielle: Gabrielle Salomone, is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, who is from outside of Philadelphia PA. She received her Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and then a few years later her Masters in Social Work, both from Widener University. She currently is the clinical director at Therapy for Women Center which is based in Philadelphia.

Old wounds don't always fade just because time passes. Sometimes, the things that happened years ago still shape how people see themselves, how they trust others, and how they navigate the world. It's frustrating to feel like something unseen is pulling the strings, making certain patterns repeat no matter how much effort goes into changing them. The past doesn't just disappear, but understanding its influence is often the first step toward breaking free from it.

Have you ever thought of how much energy it takes to be resentful? And all the emotions that are connected with resentment--the shock, hurt, shame, guilt, and many other feelings that are so draining! It may seem harder to face what's going on in our relationship with someone else in the moment, and it's easier to allow the situation to fester, allowing resentment to be created and grow. We can actually learn how to choose discomfort instead of resentment and benefit from that choice!  Suze Gadol Anderson lives in Eugene, Oregon.

On today's podcast, I chat with two brilliant IFS lead trainers, Pam Krause and Crystal Jones. We learn about their journeys to becoming IFS lead trainers, the evolution of the model's cultural awareness and inclusivity, and what it's been like to co-lead the newly updated IFS Online Circle together. We also dip our toes into a little controversy—should we skip the 6Fs? I loved hearing from them what it means to stay grounded in the core of the model while continuing to expand and evolve with care, community, and curiosity. Key Takeaways: “The core of the model has not changed at all.” Pam and Crystal reflect on how the IFS model has stayed steady while the perspectives, voices, and applications have continued to expand. How do different cultures experience Self Energy? What happens when we listen for joy, dance, chi, and loyalty as expressions of Self? How the model is evolving as more identities enter the space, adding richness and context. The 6 F's: should we still teach them? Pam and Crystal give context, clarity, and some new language around how and why the F's are helpful—especially for beginners. How the model teaches the steps to reach clients' protectors. We also explore mentoring, teaching, and the beautiful full-circle (pun intended!) relationship Pam and Crystal have developed through years of working together. Favorite Quote: “People are saying how they want to see themselves in the model, right? They want to see how it applies to them. And if we are not aware of our clients' identities, then we might miss it if we're looking for the eight C's.” – Crystal Jones
