This is a Fan Fav episode. Ever felt like setting boundaries is just too damn hard? I hear you, and honestly, you're not alone! So many of us women struggle to stand our ground—then end up feeling resentful, invisible, or straight-up used. That's why I sat down with legendary psychotherapist and “Boundary Boss” Terri Cole to break down exactly why we freeze, people-please, and self-abandon—and, most importantly, how to stop. Terri gets brutally honest about the root causes of poor boundaries, from family expectations to people-pleasing patterns, and gives us the roadmap for becoming our own damn advocates. With real talk, tactical steps, and compassion for every woman still learning to use her voice, Terri reveals the warning signs of weak boundaries (they're not what you think!), the power of resentment as your wake-up call, and scripts for even the most awkward family encounters—hello, narcissistic mothers and nosy Aunt Betty! Get ready to ditch guilt, drop the drama, and start setting limits that honor YOU. SHOWNOTES 00:00 – Why boundary setting triggers insecurity, people-pleasing, and self-abandonment 02:29 – Resentment as a red flag: How to spot disordered boundaries in your life 06:44 – Taking responsibility for your “50%” and the art of clear, proactive communication 14:18 – Childhood conditioning, people-pleasing, and the roots of boundary struggles 36:28 – High-functioning codependency: Why “superwomen” still give too much 51:28 – Suppressed anger, the power of naming your feelings, and setting stronger boundaries 1:09:06 – Scripts for handling invasive relatives & rude questions at family gatherings 1:19:33 – Narcissistic mothers: Signs, hard limits, and how to protect your energy 1:28:44 – Relationship boundaries: From stating your needs to enforcing consequences and non-negotiables 1:29:43 – Making boundaries a language—why practice and self-compassion change everything FOLLOW TERRI COLE: Instagram: https://instagram.com/terricole Website: https://www.terricole.com Book: https://boundarybossbook.com Ready to become a BOUNDARY BOSS?

This episode is a little different from what we usually cover on New Frontiers, but it's one I couldn't wait to bring to you. I've been thinking a lot about how we—as clinicians—are supposed to keep up in this era of high-throughput technology. We're swimming in data: labs, multi-omics, diet logs… and an ever-growing stream from wearables. There's just so much coming at us, and too often, we're awash in a sea of information without adequate interpretive power. That's why this conversation with Dr. Rana el Kaliouby felt so important. She's not just an AI scientist—she's a visionary and a total badass. She's building technology that doesn't just process data, but actually helps us become better clinicians and better humans. We get into the ethics, the potential, the parenting implications—and yes, a personal story about a tragedy in my own hometown that made this all hit very close to home. This one's powerful, and I hope it sparks the same questions and inspiration for you as it did for me. ~DrKF TRIGGER WARNING This episode touches on sensitive topics, including gun violence and suicide, in the context of empathy, mental health, and technology. If you or someone you know is struggling, please seek help. We share this with care and hope it offers support and perspective.

I'm joined by criminal behavioral analyst Laura Richards and Sarah Edmondson—whose experiences inside NXIVM give us absolutely raw, firsthand insight into coercive control, manipulation, and survival. Together, we break down the blueprint of racketeering, sex trafficking, forced labor, and how abusers weaponize power—all while tackling the media's misunderstandings and society's persistent victim-blaming. With chilling real-life parallels, behind-the-scenes analysis, vulnerable personal stories, and a critical look at high-profile defense tactics, this is a must-listen for anyone ready to fully understand the stakes of this groundbreaking case—and why real accountability matters.

This is a Fan Fav episode. Psychotherapist and New York Times bestselling author Lori Gottlieb just brought her absolutely game-changing wisdom to Women of Impact, and trust me, this is one you don't want to miss. We dove deep into why you're not as “stuck” as you think, how your old stories are shaping your current reality, and the really wild truth about what it actually takes to change (spoiler: it's not “just knowing” better!). Lori gets radically honest about pain, envy, self-sabotage, and even how to love well. She shares her own breakthroughs as both therapist and client, and lays out tangible hacks to rewrite your life story—one real, imperfect step at a time. Get cozy, get ready—and get real with yourself—as we unpack the tools for authentic transformation, genuine connection, and the habits that will finally help you step more fully into your power.

After laying a powerful foundation in Part 1, Lisa and Charles now take the conversation deeper into mastering practical, emotional, and social types of dialogue—skills crucial for creating healthy, thriving relationships both at home and at work. Charles shares essential strategies for recognizing the type of conversation you're in, matching your partner's emotional state, setting boundaries, and knowing when to walk away for your own wellbeing. This segment covers tools for expressing your needs, handling toxic or manipulative patterns (like “kitchen sinking” or being steamrolled), and how to foster genuine connection—even during disagreements. Charles and Lisa discuss nonverbal cues, the role of humor and laughter in building bonds, the neuroscience of emotional synchronization, and how to invite deeper conversation through “deep questions.” SHOWNOTES26:46 Emotional Conversations—The Power of Self-Awareness36:38 When Someone Won't Communicate: Knowing When to Walk Away42:05 Social Conversations: Acknowledgement and Belonging52:09 Synchronization: Neuroscience of Connected Conversation65:32 When You're Furious, Get Curious: Transforming Conflict with Questions FOLLOW CHARLES DUHIGG:Website: https://charlesduhigg.comTwitter: https://twitter.com/cduhiggInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/charlesduhiggLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/charlesduhigg/ CHECK OUT OUR SPONSORS Vital Proteins: Get 20% off by going to ⁠https://www.vitalproteins.com⁠ and entering promo code WOI at check out.  BIOptimizers: Head to⁠ https://bioptimizers.com/impact ⁠and use code IMPACT for 10% off.  OneSkin: Get 15% off with code LISA at ⁠https://oneskin.co ⁠ Shopify: Sign up for your one-dollar-per-month trial period at ⁠https://shopify.com/lisa⁠ Learn more about your ad choices.

Lisa Bilyeu sits down with Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and best-selling author Charles Duhigg, known for "The Power of Habit" and his latest book, "Super Communicators." Charles joins Lisa to unpack the art of high-stakes communication—especially for women who face belittling, dismissive, or outright toxic interactions. Drawing from expert research and practical tools, Charles equips listeners with real-world strategies to confidently respond to disrespect, set boundaries, and reclaim their conversational power. Lisa and Charles dissect scenarios every woman has faced: being dismissed with demeaning remarks or told to “smile more.” They break down the nuances between well-intended but clumsy comments and those intended to hurt, and dive into how to respond with strength and grace in both cases.

This is a Fan Fav episode. On this episode, I'm joined by renowned relationship and sex expert, Dr. Laura Berman, to get to the heart of what drives attraction, love, and desire. Dr. Laura sheds light on why those first-date butterflies may actually be your body's warning signal—and how our old wounds and subconscious patterns sneak into our relationships.

Bob Roth is America's most experienced meditation teacher and executive director of The David Lynch Foundation. This conversation explores the intersection of ancient transcendence and modern necessity. We discuss Bob's 50+ year practice, David Lynch's final words about happiness, the neuroscience of "effortless meditation," and why accessing the fourth state of consciousness isn't a luxury, it's survival technology for the age of AI. He shows how 20 minutes rewires your brain, cuts cortisol by up to 40%, and unlocks "unbounded awareness." Bob democratizes transcendence. This is meditation without the mysticism. Enjoy!

Ever found yourself questioning if what you're experiencing in a relationship is love or something much, much darker? Maybe you're stuck in that endless cycle—feeling cherished one moment, then manipulated, trapped, and isolated the next—wondering if the confusion, anxiety, and even shame are somehow your fault? Well homie, it's time we tear that damn illusion to pieces. In this episode, we're shining the brightest spotlight into the shadows with legendary criminal profiling expert Dr. Ann Burgess. As the Diddy trial takes an incredibly dark turn, Dr. Ann is back to break down the cycle of abuse heard in jaw-dropping detail through Jane's testimony—so NO woman ever has to fall prey to these toxic patterns again. There's a blueprint to how abusers operate, and it DOESN'T always show up as bruises. The cycle is sneaky: devotion turns to obsession, “love” is weaponized for control, and you're left doubting your reality. But fam, we are DONE letting shame or manipulation keep us silent. We dig deep into: - The hidden signs of the cycle of abuse and how they can masquerade as love, devotion, or even gifts - Confidence-shattering tactics used by abusers—including humiliation, degrading “tests,” gaslighting, and manipulation - How financial control and dependency become another weapon to keep you trapped - Why those weird gut feelings and “something isn't right” moments are your most powerful warning signals - What to do if you recognize yourself in Jane's (or Cassie's, or Mia's) story—from crisis centers to finding your voice and support system - Crucial advice for breaking free: how to test back, regain leverage, and build the courage to leave AND, we're joined by PopCrimeTV's Lauren Conlin, host of Pop Crime TV—who's been planted in the courtroom EVERY SINGLE DAY of the Diddy trial, witnessing history unfold. Lauren brings you the unfiltered, inside scoop on everything: - What it's really like inside the packed federal courtroom (yes, paparazzi and Kanye West drama included!) - Exclusive updates and reactions straight from the courthouse—no sugarcoating, no spin, just truth - Her raw observations of Cassie, Mia, and Jane as they give their testimonies, and the subtle (and not-so-subtle) ways Diddy responds to each survivor - The complex, emotional undercurrents affecting the jury—and what's really happening when celebrity power comes face-to-face with justice for women If you or someone you know is experiencing Domestic Violence, help is available.

This is a Fan Fav episode. On this episode of Women of Impact, I (Lisa Bilyeu) invite you to take a raw, real, and actionable journey into the core of self love, self discovery, and what it means to truly prioritize yourself.

Picking up where they left off, Lisa and Kendra G dive even deeper into the lies women are told—and tell themselves—about love, relationships, and self-worth. Part 2 gets into the nitty-gritty of how to stop comparison, heal from toxic relationships, and become the kind of woman everyone wants to be around: truly confident, truly unshakeable. Kendra and Lisa tackle the hardest truths about being “too picky,” the myth that women aren't “complete” until chosen, and how unrealistic expectations derail happiness. They also get vulnerable, discussing the aftermath of heartbreak, the slow erosion of self-esteem in bad relationships, and the moment-to-moment battles to refuse to lower your standards. Expect actionable wisdom on self-assessment, rebuilding after a breakup, and making sure your confidence is built on YOUR foundation—not someone else's validation.

Five of Israel's allies, including the UK, have sanctioned Finance Minister Smotrich and Security Minister Ben-Gvir, accusing them of “inciting extremist violence and serious abuses of Palestinian human rights” after both called for the aggressive expansion of Israeli settlements in the West Bank. Smotrich says that Gaza “will be entirely destroyed” and that “not one grain of wheat” should be allowed in. The result is an extraordinary situation in which two of Israel's top ministers are now banned from travelling to countries that Israel counts as friends - and President Trump might be the only person outside of Israel who can end this war. This week he called Netanyahu to tell him that a ceasefire and hostage deal are not enough and he expects the war to end. Piers Morgan is joined by a satirist, former surgeon and a figurehead of the pro-Palestine movement, Bassem Youssef and former IDF spokesman and combat commander Jonathan Conricus to discuss the latest developments - with predictably impassioned results.

From housewife to the co-founder of a billion-dollar company, I know intimately what it means to face fear, self-doubt, and that nagging voice inside that says you're not enough. That's why I'm thrilled to share my conversation with Radhi Devlukia-Shetty on this episode of Women of Impact. With her blend of heart, honesty, and hard-won wisdom, Radhi opens up about her journey—growing up heavyset, navigating body image in a world obsessed with “skinny,” and breaking free from external validation through meditation, journaling, and radical self-discovery. She reveals how leaving home and starting over in a new country forced her to face her fears head-on, and how she built a relationship with herself step-by-step. From conscious cooking to confronting the discomfort of leading in business, Radhi's story is a roadmap for any woman wants to find her strength—not in spite of her vulnerabilities, but because of them. SHOWNOTES Radhi shares her experience growing up heavyset and the early effects of body image and external validation on self-worth The pivotal influence of home support and how meditation led her to real self-love Letting go of the “Why me?” victim loop and shifting perspective for growth Practical tools: time-limited processing of emotions, journaling, and turning criticism into useful self-reflection Overcoming the fear of the unknown: moving across continents, letting go of comfort and security, and learning self-sufficiency Journaling as a tool for understanding your own thoughts, qualities, and embracing imperfection How to honor your emotions without wallowing in them: actionable tips to process then move forward Facing career challenges: stepping into leadership as a vegan recipe developer, navigating male-dominated spaces, and setting boundaries The power of embracing imperfection in both personal life and career—take the leap and learn from the mess-ups CHECK OUT OUR SPONSORS Vital Proteins: Get 20% off by going to ⁠https://www.vitalproteins.com⁠ and entering promo code WOI at check out.  BIOptimizers: Head to⁠ https://bioptimizers.com/impact ⁠and use code IMPACT for 10% off.  OneSkin: Get 15% off with code LISA at ⁠https://oneskin.co ⁠ Shopify: Sign up for your one-dollar-per-month trial period at ⁠https://shopify.com/lisa⁠ FOLLOW RADHI DEVLUKIA-SHETTY: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/radhidevlukiaYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@radhidevlukiashettyWebsite: https://www.radhidevlukia.coTwitter: https://twitter.com/radhidevlukiaFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/radhidevlukia/ Learn more about your ad choices.

In this powerful two-part episode of Women of Impact, host Dr. Ann Burgess is joined by renowned criminal profiler Dr. Ann Burgess (yes, both as host and guest!) to break down the harrowing testimonies emerging from the Diddy trial. Focusing on the voices of women who have faced extreme danger and abuse, the episode exposes not just the acts themselves, but also the social and psychological mechanisms that keep survivors silent and trapped.

This is a Fan Fav episode. Dr. Lisa Mosconi joins me on Women of Impact to completely reframe how we think about the female brain—and debunk the damaging myth that “bikini medicine” (the idea that women are just men with breasts and ovaries) should guide our health and treatment. We dig into why women are almost twice as likely to develop Alzheimer's, the striking gaps in research and medical care, and the massive ways that hormones, lifestyle, and stress impact women's cognitive health, starting from puberty through menopause and beyond. Dr. Mosconi unpacks the science behind everything from sleep and exercise to diet, stress, and pregnancy's overlooked impact on brain plasticity. With practical advice, radical truths, and real hope, this episode is the playbook for every woman who wants to understand—and fiercely protect—her own mind.

Legal Team, this week we're replaying a timely episode following the news that President Trump has pardoned Todd and Julie Chrisley, leading to their release from prison. At the top of the episode, we break down what a presidential pardon actually means—and what it doesn't. Then we dive into the Chrisleys' dramatic fall from grace. Todd and Julie, stars of Chrisley Knows Best, were convicted of fraudulently obtaining millions in loans using forged documents and evading taxes, but their legal troubles started long before reality TV. This jam-packed episode covers everything from early schemes dating back to 2009 to messy family drama, multiple state and federal investigations, scorned exes, and a laundry list of allegations: RICO, bankruptcy fraud, wire fraud, tax evasion, extortion, defamation, and more.    More Chrisley content!   https://open.spotify.com/episode/0kwCOWq3DWoacBVXcxG0hp?si=8acb4461139c41ae  https://open.spotify.com/episode/7wruk5hWEy4JB0kxq7Yx9n?si=4b52524e0827487a    Access additional content and our Patreon here: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://zez.am/thebravodocket⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠              The Bravo Docket podcast, the statements we make whether in our own media or elsewhere, and any content we post are for entertainment purposes only and do not provide legal advice.

When a man's words and actions just don't add up, your gut kicks in—but is it intuition, or paranoia? I'm Lisa Bilyeu, and in this episode, I sit down with world-renowned interrogator and body language expert Scott Rouse, who's trained with the FBI, to break down the subtle cues that reveal if someone's being honest, hiding something, or even manipulating you. From decoding mixed signals and love bombing to learning the red flags of a true psychopath, Scott gives us a toolkit for self-protection and radical self-trust. This is essential wisdom for every woman who wants to feel safe, seen, and strong—whether you're dating, doing business, or just tuning up your radar for the people in your life.

How details and “qualifiers” in answers give away dishonesty [00:00:29] Why psychopaths don't show fear—and how to spot them through body language and the “psychopathic stare” [00:01:16, 00:11:19] The dangers of love bombing: How predators mirror your voice & mannerisms to build false connections fast [00:03:09] Matching and mirroring: When is it bonding, when is it manipulative? [00:05:12] Nonverbal red flags in relationships: Closed posture, lingering eye contact, asymmetrical smiles, and self-soothing moves [00:06:52–00:13:30] What your intuition is telling you when someone is “too nice”—and why you must trust it [00:24:20] Does alcohol make people worse liars? Quick-fire myth-busting on deception [00:26:59] How Scott's FBI interrogation tactics—like “us against them”—can reveal truths in any relationship [00:18:09–00:21:54] Watch for sudden tension, withdrawal, or “stepping back” during key questions—they're distancing from the lie [00:14:07–00:15:52] Building your confidence: Never let anyone make you doubt what you're sensing or seeing in your own life [00:27:40] FOLLOW SCOTT ROUSE:Website: https://scottrouse.comYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@BehaviorXThe Behavior Panel: https://www.youtube.com/@TheBehaviorPanel CHECK OUT OUR SPONSORS Vital Proteins: Get 20% off by going to ⁠⁠https://www.vitalproteins.com⁠⁠ and entering promo code WOI at check out.  BIOptimizers: Head to⁠⁠ https://bioptimizers.com/impact ⁠⁠and use code IMPACT for 10% off.  OneSkin: Get 15% off with code LISA at ⁠⁠https://oneskin.co ⁠⁠ Shopify: Sign up for your one-dollar-per-month trial period at ⁠⁠https://shopify.com/lisa Learn more about your ad choices.

Everything changed when women dared to speak up. This week, with my co-host, criminal behavioral analyst Laura Richards, and special guest ex-CIA spy Andrew Bustamante by my side, we're dissecting the walls of power, money, intimidation, and silence surrounding Diddy's alleged abuse. We break down Cassie's mother's pivotal testimony, explore the mechanics of coercion, sex trafficking and racketeering charges, and lay out practical strategies for any woman feeling trapped by threats and shame. We ask the uncomfortable questions: When the world won't protect women, what does justice really look like? And—how do we take back our stories, our safety, and our agency, even when going up against the untouchable?

This is a Fan Favorite episode. What up, homies! It's your girl Lisa Bilyeu, and welcome back to another fire episode of Women of Impact! Today I am beyond pumped to bring you a conversation with someone I have been dying to sit down with—spiritual mentor, artist, entrepreneur, the incredible founder of Shrimu, AND the phenomenal partner to Rich Roll, the one and only Julie Piatt! Girl, if you've ever wondered how to find your soul's purpose in love, business, and life, or if you've struggled to balance being a freaking badass independent woman while in a relationship with another powerhouse, this episode is for you! Julie and I get REAL on what it means to grow through relationships (even the hard, failed ones!), how to truly own your path, and the deep spiritual work that actually creates transformation—not just in your marriage, but inside of YOU. Julie doesn't hold back, sharing her journey through three marriages, including one that was abusive, and exactly how she turned those painful chapters into the raw fuel for her mastery and spiritual growth. We talk self-love, boundaries, deep partnership, how to communicate when things are messy, AND how the feminine can finally step INTO her sacred, powerful role. Plus, we geek out on how to build a mission-driven company like Shrimu without losing yourself. You do not want to miss these wisdom bombs.

This is a Fan Favorite episode. It's your girl Lisa Bilyeu, and welcome back to another killer episode of Women of Impact—the podcast where we don't just talk about change, we freaking LIVE IT. And today, I'm bringing you something extra special: a Not-So-Solo Q&A, where I get to bring someone SUPER close to my heart onto the show—my very own mum, Diana! We're sitting down, raw and real, right in the thick of quarantine, and breaking down some of the juiciest questions you guys have thrown my way: How do you help a loved one create real transformation in their life? What actually works to shift your OWN mindset and habits—especially when it feels impossible? And, let's get honest, how do you spark change when you feel like you've tried everything and nothing's working? (Spoiler: It's not about nagging!) You'll get actionable advice on separating emotion from logic, building new habits from a place of self-love INSTEAD of self-hate, and helping those you love…even when it feels freaking impossible. Plus, you'll hear the mind-blowing story of how my mum, at almost 70, lost over 115 pounds and transformed her health—not because anyone forced her, but because she found her WHY.

Dr. Matthew Walker is a world-renowned neuroscientist, sleep expert, and the bestselling author of “Why We Sleep.” In this conversation, we explore sleep not as a passive state, but as the biological foundation of life itself—the platform from which wakefulness emerges. We dive into the architecture of sleep, its vital role in immune function, disease prevention, memory, mood, and performance. We also touch on dreams, sleepwalking, and the hidden costs of even modest sleep disruption. I share my own long, complicated relationship with sleep—and what I've learned in the process. Matthew is brilliant. His insights are profound. And this re-released conversation just might change your life. Enjoy!

You're being programmed, and it's more subtle and pervasive than you think. From invisible influence to psychological manipulation, this episode shows you how to recognize when your thoughts aren't really yours. Host Dave Asprey uncovers the hidden science of mind control with Harvard historian Rebecca Lemov. She is a professor of the History of Science at Harvard University and one of the world's leading experts on psychological manipulation, surveillance science, government experimentation, and Cold War brainwashing programs. Her groundbreaking research into MK Ultra, behavioral psychology, and reeducation campaigns reveals exactly how external forces hijack your thoughts, emotions, and decisions, without you knowing. They break down how mind control evolved from CIA-funded brain implants and LSD experiments into today's algorithmic persuasion, trauma-based manipulation, and tech-driven influence. This episode gives you practical tools to defend your thoughts, upgrade your awareness, and reclaim your mental sovereignty. This is essential listening for anyone serious about biohacking, mindfulness, longevity, mental performance, self-awareness, hacking the nervous system, emotional control, and high-performance mindset training. You'll Learn: • How the CIA used MK Ultra, psychedelics, hypnosis, and implants to test behavior control • What mind control looks like in modern media, social platforms, and persuasive technology • How unresolved trauma and emotional blind spots leave you vulnerable to manipulation • The connection between neurohacking, mindset, and mental autonomy • How to recognize when you are running someone else's code • The best psychological tools to build resilience and conscious awareness • How to build a “mental firewall” with meditation, breathwork, and attention training Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Dave Asprey is a four-time New York Times bestselling author, founder of Bulletproof Coffee, and the father of biohacking.
