Podcasts about Permission

In this episode, we chat: Why you're not "bad" at sticking to routines, inconsistent, or undisciplined... you just might need to tweak how you approach routines especially if you're a spontaneous, fly-by-the-seat-of-your-pants type of gal. What you'll learn in this episode: How to actually STICK to your routines even when they feel and seem, well, borringg. How routines actually bring out MORE of your playfulness and whimsy A whole new way to view consistency-- and no, this does not look like get it PERFECT or give up. Permission to breathe.

This episode is brought to you by Aligned for Wealth™, a free 3-part experience designed to help you stop paying the high cost of misalignment. Replays end July 2nd!  ✨ About This Season: The Anatomy of Alignment This season of Redefining Wealth is dedicated to unpacking what alignment really means — not as a buzzword, but as structure. We're dissecting how misalignment impacts each of the Six Pillars of Wealth — FIT, PEOPLE, SPACE, FAITH, WORK, and MONEY — and what it truly costs when we tolerate what drains us. Each episode builds on the last. So subscribe and journey with us as we move from awakening… to redefining… to actualizing.   Episode Summary In this season finale, Patrice reflects on one of the most powerful lessons from the Anatomy of Alignment series: the difference between the price of change and the cost of staying the same. While many people fear the discomfort, grief, uncertainty, or inconvenience that comes with making aligned decisions, Patrice challenges listeners to consider the long-term cost of remaining in situations, relationships, habits, and environments that no longer support who they're becoming. Through personal stories about her health, relationships, home, and recent life transitions, she reveals how misalignment quietly taxes our energy, peace, and potential over time. Ultimately, this episode is an invitation to stop calculating only the immediate price of change and start honestly evaluating the hidden cost of staying the same. Patrice reminds us that alignment often requires temporary discomfort, but misalignment can create years of emotional, spiritual, physical, and financial drain. As she closes out the season, she encourages listeners to embrace the work of alignment, trust the vision they've been given, and choose the version of life that reflects who they are becoming rather than who they used to be.   Questions to Ask Yourself: What am I avoiding because I'm focused on the price instead of the cost? Where in my life am I paying a long-term price for staying the same? What relationship, habit, environment, or commitment no longer aligns with who I'm becoming? What would become possible if I stopped negotiating with misalignment? Am I willing to experience temporary discomfort in exchange for lasting alignment?   Want to Redefine Wealth for Yourself?

Do you owe your toxic aging parent everything... or nothing? Clinical psychologist Dr. Lisa Stinson, author of The Obligation Myth: Rethinking What You Owe Your Difficult Aging Parent, joins the show to unpack what happens when a critical, dismissive, or covertly narcissistic parent starts needing care — and why "I do everything" or "I do nothing" was never the real choice. We dig into the specific family roles that get assigned in childhood — the scapegoat, the golden child, the invisible child, and the enmeshed child — and how each one carries a different wound, gets triggered differently, and needs a completely different approach to setting a boundary. Dr. Stinson also breaks down how fear, obligation, and guilt (FOG) get weaponized differently depending on which role you were handed, and why your role can shift as the family system changes around you. If you've ever walked into your parent's house and instantly felt five years old again, this episode will help you understand why — and what to actually do about it. Lisa D. Stinson, Ph.D. is a clinical psychologist specializing in complex PTSD, narcissistic abuse recovery, adult children of dysfunctional families, and the psychology of toxic family obligation. Her expertise was forged through extensive experience as an active-duty Navy psychologist, where she predominantly worked with trauma patients. Dr. Stinson holds both a Master's degree and Doctorate from the California School of Professional Psychology at Alliant International University, following her undergraduate studies at the University of Alaska Anchorage.

You don't need a reason to want what you want. You don't need to earn it, justify it, or prove that it solves a problem or serves someone else. You are allowed to want something just because it makes you happy, just because it brings you joy, just because it's yours. That sounds simple. But after more than a decade of coaching midlife women, Suzy knows it's one of the hardest things to actually practice. In this episode, Suzy revisits the Permission to Want theme from Episode 436 but takes it somewhere new. Instead of focusing on the big, sweeping case for permission, this show is about what permission actually looks like in the small, everyday moments. Learn more here!

Episode 4156 │ June 22, 2026 The silence around the killing of children is not a failure of the system. It is the system working exactly as designed. Dispatch One names it. WHAT THIS EPISODE COVERS  Dispatch One of The Eighteenth Brumaire of Donald Trump opens a five-part series built on months of research by applying Karl Marx's dialectical method — not his ideology — to the documented record of what the world's power structure is actually doing to its most vulnerable: 20,000 confirmed children killed in Gaza, 175 children killed in a pink schoolhouse in southern Iran by a US Tomahawk missile aimed by an AI targeting system that didn't know it was a school, 12 million children in modern slavery generating $236 billion annually, and 40,000 children mining coltan in armed-group-controlled Congo for supply chains confirmed by Global Witness to include Sony, Microsoft, Amazon, and Nvidia. The banking system keeps running, the arms contracts keep flowing, the UN Security Council keeps issuing statements, and 1,118 people were convicted last year against a $236 billion global industry — and Scott Kesterson names what that pattern actually is: not failure, not incapacity, but a permission structure — a deliberate institutional choice about what children are worth made by people with the power to choose otherwise. The episode ends not with resolution but with a question: what would you expect if it was your child? KEY QUESTIONS ADDRESSED What is the difference between institutional failure and a permission structure — and what does the documented record of banking continuity, arms contracts, supply chains, and Security Council vetoes prove about which one is operating? What does the coltan in your phone have to do with armed rebel groups in the Congo, children exposed to radiation in mining pits, and a US federal court that confirmed tech companies forced children to work to meet their demand — then absolved them legally? How does Karl Marx's dialectical method — strip away the theater, expose what is actually moving underneath — apply to the present moment without endorsing the ideology that destroyed a hundred million lives?

Along the way, she reflects on the importance of resilience, authenticity, mentorship, and refusing to let other people define what's possible.The conversation also explores a core VEST Her belief: that economic mobility isn't just about personal development.

This sermon uses David's encounter with Saul in 1 Samuel 24 to teach that God's promises should never be pursued through shortcuts or disobedience. Even when David had the opportunity to kill Saul and claim the throne, he honored God's process, trusted God's timing, and left justice in God's hands. “Honor the process as much as the promise, and trust the Promise-Maker.”

There comes a point in a covert narcissistic relationship when you can no longer live the lie. Not a dramatic breaking point necessarily — sometimes it's a slow erosion that leaves you mentally exhausted, emotionally numb, and physically depleted. Sometimes it's a single moment of devastating clarity you can never unsee. In this episode, Renee Swanson shares her own story of hitting the wall in her marriage to a covert narcissist — the slow erosion that wore away her mental bandwidth, her emotional capacity, and her physical health, alongside the quiet moment of clarity that changed everything. She breaks down the two distinct paths to reaching your breaking point, what happens internally when you finally decide to speak your truth, and what to realistically expect when you confront a covert narcissist — including DARVO, minimizing, and emotional manipulation designed to knock you off balance. If you've been walking on eggshells, doubting your own perception, or wondering if you're the only one who feels this exhausted in your relationship, this episode will help you recognize what's happening and find the words to finally name your reality out loud.

Welcome to Your Quiet Moment. I'm so glad you're here. Today I want to talk about something that might seem simple on the surface but carries surprising depth. We're going to explore the idea of allowing joy. Not chasing it, not earning it, not performing our way into it. Just allowing it. Letting it arrive. Letting it move through you without grabbing hold of the handles of worry and pulling the door shut before it can walk in. I know what you're thinking. Joy sounds lovely in theory, but your life is complicated. You have responsibilities, uncertainties, people counting on you, things that could go wrong at any moment. You don't have time for joy right now. Or maybe you feel like you don't deserve it yet.

Krista dives into one of the biggest challenges she sees aspiring coaches and business owners face: charging for their work. After ten years of running her own coaching business and working with hundreds of coaches, she's learned that money fears aren't a sign that something is wrong. They're often a sign that you're growing.From guilt around charging and fears of being seen as greedy to the deeper beliefs many women carry about money, service, and self-worth, Krista shares the mindset shifts that helped her build a profitable coaching business while staying aligned with her values. She also explores why receiving is just as important as giving and why the real issue for many coaches isn't pricing—it's permission.In this episode:• Why so many spiritual women struggle to charge for their services and where those beliefs often come from• The difference between selling a session and creating transformation for your clients• How undercharging can lead to burnout, resentment, and a business that struggles to grow• Why receiving money for your work can be one of the most powerful forms of energetic exchangeThe deepest issue is rarely pricing. It's permission. Permission to be visible. Permission to receive. Permission to take up space. And permission to be both spiritual and prosperous at the same time.

Hey UN•THERAPIST,We need your help UN•THERAPIZING something…Let's start with something light…If you bring food or drinks to an event and they go unused, is it tacky to take them home?

What would change in your life if you stopped waiting for permission and finally trusted yourself? In this episode, Lacy, Jessica, and Janelle explore one of the most transformative energies in manifestation: the unapologetic self-worth that comes from fully being yourself. As the community moves through the Be Seen Challenge, they unpack the collective themes emerging right now: navigating uncertainty in a rapidly changing world, releasing outdated beliefs around success, hustle, relationships, visibility, and identity. They dive into the fears that keep us hidden and cover nervous system regulation, shadow work, authenticity, burnout, and manifestation. Plus, they break down why "fuck it" energy isn't about recklessness — it's about arriving at a place where your worth is no longer up for debate. Your authenticity is your greatest signal to the universe. The life, love, opportunities, and freedom you're after often begin the moment you stop abandoning yourself and allow yourself to truly be seen.

Have you ever struggled to explain what's happening in your relationship — where nothing looks "bad enough" to point to, but something feels wrong every single day? In this episode, I'm joined by Anne Wintemute, co-founder and CEO of Aimee Says, an AI companion built specifically for survivors of covert abuse, coercive control, and narcissistic partners. Anne spent years working directly with survivors navigating the family court system before she and her co-founder Steven asked a powerful question: could AI help survivors document, understand, and ultimately heal from what they'd been through? Today, Aimee Says has helped over 70,000 users do exactly that. We dig into how Aimee Says detects patterns like restricted autonomy, gaslighting, and coercive control — even when there's no single moment you can point to. You'll hear how it turns lived experience into visual data: bubble charts that reveal the shape of a relationship, timelines that show escalation, and "binders" that prepare survivors for mediation, court, or even just their next therapy session. We also cover how this is fundamentally different from a tool like ChatGPT, how privacy and legal protections work, and where Anne sees this technology heading in the next five years. If you've ever felt like you didn't have the language for what happened to you, or like no one would believe you without "proof" — this episode is for you.

What if the thing holding us as spiritual practitioners backisn't a lack of knowledge, training, or experience - but the unconscious habit of waiting for permission?In this episode, I explore the subtle ways permission-seeking disguises itself as learning, humility, responsibility, and"doing things properly." From my early days as a journalist to years spent navigating energy work, Reiki & other training spaces, spiritual communities, and business ownership, I share my observations & personal experience on how seeking certainty can quietly delay growth, dilute our medicine, andkeep us disconnected from our own spiritual authority. This isn't an episode about rejecting teachers or abandoninglearning. It's an invitation to examine where mainstream guidance ends and dependence begins - and what becomes possible when we stop waiting for someone else to tell us we're ready.5 perspective shifts available by the end of this episode:-         Why permission seeking rarely looks like permission seeking-         Searching for certainty V self-trust-         The cost of waiting that isn't always visible-         Guidance V dependence V mirrored support-         Spiritual authority as something assumed notbestowed uponSpirit-led Reiki Pathway: https://www.reikiredefined.com/spirit-led-reiki-pathwayFree community: https://www.reikiredefined.com/free-communityUNDILUTED weekly round up to your inbox: https://reiki-redefined.kit.com/6629991732You'll find me most on Tiktok @reikiredefined

From championship parades and graduation ceremonies to personal milestones and everyday wins, there are many reasons to celebrate. Yet so often, we wait for something big to happen before we allow ourselves to pause and acknowledge our progress. On this episode, I talk about the importance of celebration, why many of us have a hard time slowing down long enough to appreciate how far we've come, and how making more room for joy, gratitude, and recognition can deepen our connection to ourselves and the people around us.   Resources: Mike Robbins Website (Newly Updated) Mike Robbins Blog Mike Robbins Podcast Mike Robbins on LinkedIn Mike Robbins YouTube Channel Mike Robbins on Instagram Mike Robbins on Facebook Mike Robbins on TikTok Mike Robbins on X Mike Robbins on BlueSky We're All in This Together (book), by Mike Robbins

The Eastland Disaster remains one of the deadliest maritime disasters in American history — yet most people have never heard of it. In 1915, the passenger ship SS Eastland rolled onto its side while tied to a dock in downtown Chicago. No storm. No collision. No iceberg. Just a routine day trip that suddenly became catastrophe.But this story isn't just about a shipwreck.It's about warning signs people slowly stop noticing… systems that appear safe because they continue functioning… and how ordinary routines can quietly hide dangerous instability.In this Disaster File episode of An Ounce, we examine: • The SS Eastland disaster • The hidden impact of Titanic-era safety changes • Why the ship may already have been unstable • How “normal” conditions can disguise catastrophe • And the unsettling psychology of systems that fail slowlyThe Eastland Disaster killed more than 800 people in shallow water — within arm's reach of rescue.And almost nobody talks about it anymore.If you enjoy thoughtful disaster history, hidden historical stories, maritime disasters, systems analysis, emergency management lessons, or stories that reveal deeper human patterns beneath major events, this episode is for you.#EastlandDisaster #Shipwreck #ChicagoHistory #DisasterFile #MaritimeHistory #Titanic #HistoricalDisasters #AnOunce #EastlandDisaster #MaritimeHistory #DisasterFile #ChicagoHistory #Shipwreck #TitanicCHAPTERS (Estimated)00:00 — SS Eastland: Ship That Sank at the Dock 00:43 — The Things We Learn to Live With 01:50 — The SS Eastland: A Fun Day on the Water 03:02 — A Ship With a Reputation 04:02 — The Ghost of Titanic 05:46 — Permission to Trust 06:46 — The Morning of the Disaster 07:06 — The List08:12— The Roll 09:10— Aftermath 09:37 — The Hidden Danger of “Normal” 10:34 — An Ounce   Recommended Companion Episode (for The Ship That Sank at the Dock — The Eastland Disaster)The Warnings We Forgot — Even Though They Were Written in Stonehttps://youtu.be/yxxa1_-nBSoWhy This Pairing WorksBoth episodes explore disasters where warning signs existed long before the catastrophe arrived.In The Eastland Disaster, people slowly adapted to instability because the ship kept functioning.In The Warnings We Forgot, societies ignored physical reminders and historical knowledge because everyday life continued normally.Both stories examine:normalized danger warning signs people stop emotionally reacting to hindsight clarity and how ordinary routines can quietly hide catastrophe Neither disaster truly “came out of nowhere.”Both were preceded by signals people slowly learned to live with. REFERENCESEastland Historical SourcesChicago History Museum — Eastland Disaster Collection https://www.chicagohistory.org/Encyclopedia of Chicago — Eastland Disaster http://www.encyclopedia.chicagohistory.org/pages/427.htmlEastland Disaster Historical Society https://eastlanddisaster.org/Library of Congress — Eastland Disaster Photographs and Records https://www.loc.gov/Britannica — SS Eastland https://www.britannica.com/topic/EastlandSystems Failure / Human Factors / Disaster Pattern ReferencesCharles Perrow — Normal Accidents: Living with High-Risk Technologies https://press.princeton.edu/books/paperback/9780691004129/normal-accidentsDiane Vaughan — The Challenger Launch Decision https://press.uchicago.edu/ucp/books/book/chicago/C/bo22739523.htmlNTSB / Human Factors Resources https://www.ntsb.gov/safety/safety-studies/pages/default.aspxFEMA — Emergency Management Institute (Human Factors / Disaster Response Concepts) https://training.fema.gov/emi/TAGSEastland Disaster, SS Eastland, Eastland shipwreck, Chicago disaster, Chicago history, maritime disaster, shipwreck history, forgotten disasters, disaster documentary, disaster file, maritime history, Titanic connection, Titanic safety changes, systems failure, human behavior, historical disaster, emergency management, hidden history, American disasters, ship sinking, 1915 disaster, Chicago River, shipwreck documentary, disaster analysis, operational drift, warning signs, human factors, catastrophe psychology, maritime catastrophe, disaster storytelling, An Ounce Podcast, disaster file series, history documentary, true disaster story, Eastland tragedy, normalized risk, risk management, safety systems, systems drift, industrial disasters, hidden structure history

Have you spent your day—or perhaps your entire week—carrying a mental load that feels too heavy to drop? In a world that demands constant movement, stopping can actually feel wrong, as if you're forgetting something vital. Today's session is a clinical permission slip to pause. We explore why your nervous system feels like it's running on a high-speed loop and how to send the signal that it is finally safe to rest. I'm Martin, a clinical hypnotherapist and former paramedic. I've spent years working with people at the absolute edge of their capacity. I want you to hear this clearly: You are not failing; you are simply a human being who has been running very hard.

Put it in your calendar first, before the world fills the space. Notice What Isn't Yours: We often carry "borrowed anxiety" from others. Ask yourself, "Is this mine?" You don't have to carry every stressor that lands near you. Let One Thing Be Unfinished: Choose one minor task and consciously decide it won't get done today. There is a profound neurological difference between a task that escaped you and one you deliberately put down.

Send us Fan MailAre you feeling like you're standing in a hallway? That in-between space where a chapter of your life has closed, but the next one hasn't quite begun? Maybe it's a shift in your family, career, or a dream that's evolved. This episode explores that very experience, offering a fresh perspective on these seasons of transition. Join host Pat Layton as she reframes “the hallway” not as a problem to be solved, but as a precious opportunity for preparation and renewal, a true gift from God. Many women experience a sense of “now what?” during these transitional periods, feeling unsure of what's next. But what if this time isn't a waiting room, but a preparation space? Pat guides you through five practical steps – Pause, Listen, Discover, Dare, and Flourish – to navigate these seasons with trust and grace. You'll learn to release old burdens, connect with God's guidance, and uncover hidden potential, recognizing that every chapter of your life has been preparing you for something. This isn't about becoming a new person, but about embracing the gifts and experiences you already possess. Discover how confidence comes from taking that first step, and how flourishing isn't about reaching a destination but embracing the present season with joy and purpose. Let go of the past, listen for God's direction, and step forward with courage, knowing your story is far from over. In this episode: Pat Layton reframes “the hallway” — those in-between seasons when one chapter has closed but the next hasn't begun — and walks through five steps to move through it well.Show Notes(0:01) Welcome — the “now what?” feeling and naming the hallway(1:51) Reframing the hallway as a gift, not a problem(2:48) Step 1 — Pause: slow down and breathe(3:59) Step 2 — Listen: tune in to God's guidance(5:04) Step 3 — Discover: your next chapter is hidden in your story(6:17) Step 4 — Dare: take a small, courageous step(7:34) Step 5 — Flourish: find joy and purpose in this season(9:41) Free resource: “The Hallway” devotional(11:06) Closing and where to connectChapters(0:01) Welcome(1:51) Reframing the hallway as a gift(2:48) Step 1 — Pause(3:59) Step 2 — Listen(5:04) Step 3 — Discover(6:17) Step 4 — Dare(7:34) Step 5 — Flourish(9:41) Resource: “The Hallway” devotional(11:06) Closing & where to connect Thank you for joining me on today's Permission to Pause.

Growing up she kept her mouth shut and tried to be ‘good enough'. Sue Krogh started out as a people-pleaser, following society's advice, she tried to stay in the mold of what was expected but somewhere along the way she started listening to herself instead. Slowly, through time, awareness and diligence, Sue realized she is of worth, and she has value because she now fully accepts her humanity. All of it.Realizing she will never be completely satisfied, she sees that things will never be perfect so why make that the goal. Something is always left undone and for Sue, that has made all the difference in empowering her to show up in her own life accepting it all.Sue is our guest this week for Permission to Want More: What's Next and What's Left.

What did "materialism" actually mean to the ancients, and how does it differ from our modern scientific understanding? In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Max Wade (Ph.D., Boston College) to bridge the gap between ancient Greek ontology and modern philosophical debates.We dive deep into the "weirdness" of ancient thought, exploring why the Stoics believed in physical gods and why the Epicureans were the only true ancient materialists. Dr. Wade challenges the secularized modern reading of Socrates and Plato, revealing how their theories of divine design were actually a reactionary response to pre-Socratic natural philosophy.In this episode, we discuss:The Miriology of Being: Why the relationship between parts and wholes is the key to unlocking ancient ontology.Active vs. Passive Matter: The crucial distinction that separates Platonists, Aristotelians, and Stoics from the Epicureans.The "Swerve": Why materialism and determinism were considered incompatible in the ancient world.Plato's Atlantis & Egyptian Wisdom: Why reading Plato literally misses his point about the soul's forgetfulness and eternal truth.Marxism & Hegel: How modern materialism is often a misreading of ancient concepts through a German Idealist lens.About Our Guest: Dr. Max Wade is a scholar of ancient philosophy whose dissertation focused on Plotinus' Ontology of Artifacts.

Why can't this feel easier? Maybe you've been carrying that question around for a while. Maybe you're doing all the things. Showing up. Working hard. Taking care of people. Following through. Keeping promises. Building the life you wanted. And somehow you're still exhausted. Not because you're doing it wrong. But because somewhere along the way, you started believing everything had to be hard to count. In this conversation, I'm revisiting one of my favorite interviews with cake artist, educator, and creator Asia Coffee. What starts as a conversation about creativity, business, and baking turns into something much bigger: a conversation about permission. Permission to stop proving. Permission to let things be good enough. Permission to choose ease when ease is available. Asia shares her journey from posting imperfect YouTube videos to growing a community of more than 100,000 subscribers, competing on Food Network, navigating imposter syndrome, and learning one of the most powerful lessons I've heard on this podcast: "I can do hard things. And how hard do I want to make things for myself?" If you're a high-functioning human with big feelings who is carrying a lot right now, this episode might feel like a deep exhale. Three Takeaways: • Consistency often matters more than perfection. • Just because you can do hard things doesn't mean everything has to be hard. • Sometimes growth looks less like pushing harder and more like offering yourself grace.   "I don't think we're always exhausted from doing too much. Sometimes we're exhausted from believing everything has to be difficult to be worthwhile."   Reflection Question: Where in your life have you been proving you can do hard things when what you really want is a little more ease?   If this felt like a conversation you needed today, send it to someone who's carrying a lot right now. Share it with a friend, a coworker, a sister, or someone who keeps trying to earn rest instead of receive it. And if you haven't already, follow the podcast so you don't miss next week's episode.   Connect with Asia Coffee Website: https://www.cakesbycoffee.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mrs.coffeescakes/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/AsiaCoffee Connect with Danielle Website: https://danielleireland.com Substack: https://danielleireland.substack.com YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@DontCutYourOwnBangs Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dontcutyourownbangs The Treasured Journal: https://danielleireland.com/journal Wrestling a Walrus: https://danielleireland.com/wrestling-a-walrus Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/0VFZulonTvaa2HIPyJa4Tq Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/dont-cut-your-own-bangs/id1427579922

Ryan shares his time with Mina the Hollower, while John dives into Killzone Shadow Fall as part of his ongoing backlog adventures. The conversation moves into Nintendo's ongoing legal situation, as new analysis suggests the company may only receive a $30,000 payout in its Pokémon‑related case involving Palworld developer Pocketpair. From there, the guys tackle a broader industry question: whether rising hardware prices are pushing gaming closer to becoming a luxury hobby. The episode then shifts into showcase season, with full rundowns of Summer Game Fest 2026, the Xbox Games Showcase 2026, and the June 2026 Nintendo Direct. John and Ryan highlight the major reveals, announcements, and trailers across all three events, comparing how each platform approached its big summer moment.

Overthinking in a covert narcissistic relationship isn't a character flaw — it's what your brain does when it has learned, through real experience, that it cannot afford to relax. If you are in a relationship with a covert narcissist, you already know this feeling: lying awake at 2 a.m. replaying conversations, re-drafting texts, rehearsing arguments before they happen, scanning for a pattern that keeps shifting the moment you think you've found it. In this episode, Renee Swanson of the Covert Narcissism Podcast breaks down why the overthinking mind develops in narcissistic relationships, how covert narcissists deliberately create confusion to keep you uncertain, compliant, and focused on them, and why your brain stopped chasing clarity and started chasing relief instead. Renee also explores what changes when your children begin showing the same hypervigilant patterns, and — most importantly — what it actually feels like when a mind shaped by narcissistic abuse finally lands somewhere safe. If you have been told you are too sensitive, too reactive, or that you think too much, this episode is for you.

Send us Fan MailDo you ever feel like you're wandering a hallway, disconnected from God, wondering where He's gone? You're not alone. In this episode of "Permission to Pause," we explore the often-difficult experience of feeling spiritually dry – what Pat Layton calls a "hallway season." It's tempting to feel like a failure when the vibrant connection you once felt fades, but what if this silence isn't a sign of abandonment? Pat, a seasoned coach with over 40 years of experience walking alongside women, shares profound insights on navigating these seasons with grace and finding renewal in stillness. We'll unpack the dangers of "spiritual bypassing" and discover how to release the pressure of performance, shifting instead into a place of peaceful presence with God. Learn how to trust the guidance you've already received and find strength in community, even when His voice seems distant. Ultimately, this episode is a gentle invitation to rest, reflect, and remember: even in the hallway, God is present, and your journey isn't over.

Have you ever found yourself waiting for someone to tell you it's okay? Okay to rest. Okay to say no. Okay to leave. Okay to change your mind. Okay to trust yourself. In this episode of Your Yes-Filled Life, Brenda explores why so many empaths and high-achievers spend years seeking permission from external sources—and why the permission they're looking for never quite sticks. Because the real issue isn't permission. It's self-trust. In This Episode You'll Learn: ✨ Why high-achievers often become addicted to approval ✨ How childhood conditioning and workplace culture reinforce permission-seeking ✨ Why self-trust becomes harder during major life transitions ✨ The surprising reason you're allowed to revisit decisions you've already made ✨ How nervous system regulation supports self-trust ✨ Why other people's opinions aren't always evidence you're on the wrong path ✨ A powerful reframe from participants inside POWER: Self-Trust for Empaths Reflection Question If you were going to give yourself permission to do what you really want... What would you do? Resources Mentioned

People pleasing is not an effective strategy on the path to healthy, conscious relating. But adopting an approach towards autonomy that amounts to ‘I don't owe anyone anything' is…not it either. These extremes were adaptive patterns; they helped us survive difficult childhoods, but they don't help us much as adults.True autonomy, when you really understand it and put it into practice, will strengthen your relationship, deepen your connection, and allow you to experience a new level of freedom. And non-monogamy presents a wealth of opportunities for coming into a deeper relationship with your own autonomy and that of your partners.In this episode, we talk about:— What autonomy actually means (and what it doesn't mean)— The difference between autonomy and individuation, and why that matters— How autonomy can be weaponized or used defensively in relationships— The tension between wanting autonomy and wanting deep interconnection with others— Why "you don't owe anyone anything" is a problematic framework for relationships— The horseshoe effect: how enmeshment and individualism can actually loop back around to each other— The subtle language patterns that reveal whether you're truly practicing autonomy or deflecting responsibility— Permission-based dynamics vs. responsibility-based autonomy— How cultural expectations around monogamy influence our understanding of autonomy— The importance of grounding into your autonomous self while hinging between multiple partners— Why writing down (or recording) your agreements can reveal unconscious patterns in how you relate to autonomy— How practicing real autonomy actually strengthens your relationships rather than weakening themJOIN The Year Of Opening® community for a full year of learning & supportLearn the 5 secrets to open your relationship the smart wayAre you ready to open your relationship happily?

Stop Arguing With Your Cravings: A Conversation with Dr. Glenn LivingstonThis episode is a rare guest conversation on Breaking Up With Binge Eating. Georgie is joined by Dr. Glenn Livingston, psychologist, author, and creator of Defeat Your Cravings, for a wide-ranging conversation about binge eating, cravings, food rules, self-trust, and why insight alone often isn't enough to change an eating pattern.Glenn shares his own history with compulsive overeating, including how years of therapy and self-understanding helped him become kinder to himself, but did not automatically stop the binge eating. Together, Georgie and Glenn explore why emotional pain can be part of the picture without being the whole cause, how the brain can use old wounds as justification for continuing a pattern, and why clear lines or “guardrails” can sometimes reduce the mental negotiation that keeps cravings alive.They also talk about the modern food environment, hyper-palatable foods, intermittent fasting, perfectionism, self-forgiveness, and why it is often easier to prevent cravings upstream than to fight them once they are roaring. Glenn offers practical tools for identifying the thoughts that try to talk you into eating against your own best judgment, while Georgie brings in her perspective on under-eating, over-productivity, emotional needs, and the importance of responding to both hunger and fullness cues with care.A key theme in this conversation is that recovery does not have to be built on shame. You can aim clearly without attacking yourself when you miss. You can protect your recovery without making your life smaller. And you can become someone who takes your own needs seriously, even when that means being a little “weird” in public, packing food, skipping the dessert you don't want, or refusing to harm yourself with food for someone else's comfort.Try this week: Notice one craving or urge and write down the thought that tries to justify it. Is it futility? Permission? “I deserve this”? “I'll start tomorrow”?

Procrastination is the most expensive fear because the price tag is your life. Every day you wait to begin, you're stealing from your future self. The worst part is you know you're doing it, but don't know how to stop. Jon Acuff joins me on the next Susie Larson Live to share from his book, "Procrastination Proof: Never Get Stuck Again." It's not your willpower holding you back. It's permission.  Jon mentions his book "Soundtracks" Check out Susie's podcast God Impressions on Apple, Spotify, or wherever you listen to podcasts!

A coaching client this week was grinding four hours a night, sitting on six ASINs he'd already vetted, and still couldn't pull the trigger. His words: "There's gotta be something I'm missing here." He wasn't missing a tool. He was missing permission to act.   In this episode, Brian and Robin Joy take you inside an actual coaching call where Robin turned three "pass on it" ASINs into two she'd test in real time. The fix wasn't a new filter or a secret tactic. It was learning to read the right number instead of the one every calculator shoves to the front page.   Why the current buy box, the price you can buy it at right now, never once entered Robin's decision. Why a $1.79 product that nets 50 cents isn't too small, it's 28% ROI and the cheapest belief-builder you'll ever buy. Why you should start your price at the highest evidence you have and let the test, not the other sellers, tell you what it's worth. And what Robin hunts for on every red ASIN that most people close the tab on.   The client said it himself: "I have to get out of my own head." Teddy Roosevelt said it better. In any moment of decision, the worst thing you can do is nothing.   You didn't fail to find five ASINs. You just kept disqualifying products for failing a test you never ran. Let's go test more ASINs.   Special guest at the conclusion of today's show, Jeff Schick of JeffSchick.com answers the question: "Can Jeff help me with trademarks and LLC eastablishment?"
