In this episode, Shannon sits down with Dawni Baxter — founder of a boutique marketing agency and a multi-passionate entrepreneur leading the movement in ethical, human-first marketing. Dawni brings a refreshing perspective to an industry filled with noise, inflated promises, and confusing pricing structures. Together, Shannon and Dawni dive into: ✨ How to navigate marketing relationships with confidence ✨ Why transparency and trust are the backbone of ethical marketing ✨ What to look for (and avoid) when hiring a marketing agency or contractor ✨ The power of outsourcing — even when it feels uncomfortable ✨ Why real marketing results require time, patience, and accurate data ✨ How fractional marketing directors provide expert support without bloated retainers Dawni shares why she helped develop the first global regulation for social media managers in the UK, and how her agency champions organic reach and integrity over pushy sales strategies. This conversation is a must-listen for any entrepreneur — especially solo retreat leaders — who wants to grow sustainably, avoid costly marketing mistakes, and build relationships rooted in alignment and trust. Key Takeaways Ethical marketing is about humans first, not hustle culture. Due diligence is essential — marketing professionals are great at marketing themselves. Trust your instincts: if a partner feels off, overpriced, or vague, walk away. There is no standardized pricing in marketing — and that's exactly why transparency matters. Fractional marketing directors are a powerful option for small businesses who need strategy without full-time overhead. Outsourcing is uncomfortable — but it's one of the fastest ways to grow as a founder. Real marketing results come from consistent data over 12–18 months… not overnight "miracles." Quick exits from misaligned relationships often save you more time and money than sticking it out. Listen to This Episode If You: Want to better understand Tantra from a grounded, professional lens.

Pause for a breath you didn't know you were holding.This soft landing is for the woman who's been holding it together so well that no one thinks to ask if she's okay.This week's affirmation:"The strategies, steps, decisions that got me here served their purpose — I release them with grace."You don't have to carry what no longer fits. You don't have to make letting go mean you failed.What got you here won't always get you where you're going. And that's okay.This weekend, ask yourself: What am I holding onto simply because it once worked?Thank it. And let it go.New Soft Landings every Friday. Save this. Share it. Come back to it when you need the reminder.
For so many women, sexuality and intimacy feel like the missing piece in living a fully embodied life, especially as we age. Our culture rarely teaches us how to move past the superficial and toward deeper pleasure, healing, and connection. In this episode, longtime teachers and practitioners of tantric and somatic healing, Leah Piper and Dr. Willow Brown, join us to demystify tantra, explore its potential for personal transformation and show how it can help us gently release even the oldest wounds we've been carrying. We'll unpack:What tantra actually is, beyond buzzwords, and how it turns sex into soul-to-soul connection and prayerSimple, practical ways to shift from goal-oriented sex to intentional intimacyWhy so many women hold emotional weight in their bodies and how to begin clearing grief, numbness, and old stories to make room for pleasureWhy women carry so much in their bodies and how to begin to release old wounds, grief, and numbness to make space for pleasureThe science behind the nervous system's role in pleasure and healing, and how ritualized practices can help us release what's no longer serving usWhy giving your own sexuality permission and curiosity is the gateway to up-leveling every relationship in your lifeOUR GUESTS: Dr. Willow Brown and Leah Piper are leaders in tantric, somatic, and holistic sexual healing whose combined decades of experience have helped individuals reclaim deeper pleasure, embodiment, and emotional freedom. Dr. Willow Brown, a Doctor of Chinese Medicine, weaves ancient Taoist philosophy with sexual and spiritual practices to open the body's innate pleasure pathways and facilitate profound cellular and somatic transformation. Leah, co-founder of the Sex Reimagined podcast and founder of More Love Works, brings expertise in Tantra Yoga, Positive Psychology, and Somatic Therapies, drawing from her own healing journey to guide individuals and couples toward conscious intimacy and awakened pleasure. Together, they offer a deeply integrative approach, bridging science, spirituality, and embodied practice, to help people release old wounds, reconnect with their true selves, and experience sexuality as a pathway to joy, vitality, and profound love.Want more Leah and Dr. Willown?

Recover Your Soul: A Spiritual Path to a Happy and Healthy Life
Send one way text to Rev Rachel As we close out 2025, I want to invite you to take a gentle moment to recognize how much you've grown.When you're recovering from codependency, people-pleasing, and the habit of trying to manage everything around you, progress often shows up in quiet ways. A pause before reacting. A boundary you were once afraid to set. A moment of choosing peace over control. These shifts matter. They are the foundation of the Recover Your Soul Process.In this episode, we look back together at the small but powerful changes that shape an entirely new way of being. Whether you arrived here through Al-Anon, through a painful relationship pattern, or through a longing to feel more connected to yourself, I want you to see just how far you've already come.We talk about awakening, the year's energetic shifts, and why so many sensitive souls are feeling called to release old stories and step into deeper truth. You are not alone. You are part of something unfolding, and your healing is part of that greater transformation.Let this episode be a reminder: you are doing the work. You are waking up. And you deserve to feel proud of the courage it takes to reclaim your own life.Until next time, Rev Rachel This podcast is for educational purposes only and is not allied or representative of any organizations or religions, but is based on the opinions and experience of Rev.

Recover Your Soul: A Spiritual Path to a Happy and Healthy Life
Send one way text to Rev Rachel The holidays have a way of bringing everything to the surface - the joy, the love, the tenderness, and also the old stories, the anxieties, and the patterns we thought we were done with. Being around family gives us a front-row seat to our operating system, the parts of us that still tighten, protect, or try to keep the peace.In this episode of Recover Your Soul, I talk about the real spiritual work of being with family while staying connected to yourself. We explore how to actually feel your feelings rather than suppress them, how to listen to the information they carry, and how to recognize when you've slipped into old roles of managing, pleasing, or fixing.This is the heart of the Recover Your Soul Process - learning to turn inward with curiosity and compassion, letting the emotions arise without judgment, and allowing others to be exactly who they are.My hope is that these reflections help you stay rooted in yourself through the holiday season - not armored, not shut down, but present, awake, and open to the deeper healing that is always happening beneath the surface.You are allowed to feel what you feel.

Dean's Chat hosts, Dr. Jensen and Richey, welcome Dr. Lindsey Hjelm from St. Cloud Minneapolis. Join us as we discuss all things podiatric medicine, including the importance of positive psychology and the importance and power of mentorship. Dr. Hjelm graduated in the top of her class with a Bachelors of Arts in Biology and a Minor in Studio Art and Religious Studies at Gustave Adolphus College in Saint Peter, Minnesota. Join us, as we discuss liberal arts education and non-traditional paths. We cover how being a student athlete helps with resiliency and grit as well as develop skills like time management. This episode is sponsored by Bako Diagnostics! She went on to complete her Doctorate of Podiatric Medical Degree with Des Moines University followed by a three year surgical residency program with Franciscan Foot and Ankle Institute in Federal Way, Washington. She completed her fellowship under the direction of Dr. Byron Hutchinson with Advanced Foot and Ankle Reconstructive Surgery Fellowship. Listen how Dr. Hjelm's career was shaped after she suffered an injury as an athlete and how having a female surgeon inspired her at a young age. We dive into how setbacks can help us become the best versions of ourselves and give us better perspectives, both as we treat patients, but also how we show up and lead others. Finally, we transition into leadership by highlighting how small the profession is and the value of relationships. We discuss the networking and connections that have shaped all of our lives and how having the courage to reach out to others who you admire can lead to opportunities you never thought may happen. Mentorship can happen organically and she discusses how mentors can be found in many places and platforms. We hope you enjoy this inspiring episode. Enjoy!

What makes relationships truly thrive, not just survive? In this episode of Grow the Good, I sit down with Suzie Pileggi Pawelski, positive psychology expert and co-author of Happy Together: Using the Science of Positive Psychology to Build Love That Lasts, to explore how strengths, gratitude, and intentional effort create lasting connection.Suzie shares her evidence-based framework for building flourishing relationships using character strengths, gratitude, and virtue. We talk about how to balance differences, embrace vulnerability, and move beyond “utility-based” love into Aristotelian “love of goodness.” I also share some of my own reflection, from learning to appreciate my husband Matt's different strengths, to maintaining intimacy while raising kids.If you've ever wondered how to bring more meaning, patience, and joy into your relationships (romantic or otherwise), this conversation offers both science and heart.Top 5 Takeaways:Relationships Thrive on Strengths: Knowing and celebrating your and your partner's character strengths deepens understanding and connection.Balance and Awareness Matter: Overusing or underusing strengths can create friction, mindful awareness and communication are key.Gratitude and Vulnerability Build Trust: Truly receiving appreciation (without deflecting!) strengthens intimacy.Aristotelian Love = Love of Goodness: Building virtue-based relationships elevates love beyond utility or pleasure.Relationships Require Practice: Like going to the gym, thriving relationships take ongoing intention, curiosity, and growth.LINKSLearn more about Suzie https://www.suzannpileggi.com/about/Read Happy Together https://www.suzannpileggi.com/author2/#happyListen to Love in Your Golden Years https://www.audible.com/pd/Love-in-Your-Golden-Years-Audiobook/B0FJ2V1WL5?source_code=ASSGB149080119000H&share_location=pdp--------------The Grow the Good Podcast is produced by Palm Tree Pod Co.

Hosts: Dr. Ashlee Gethner, LCSW – Child of a Police Officer Jennifer Woosley Saylor, LPCC S – Child of a Police Officer In this heartfelt and timely Thanksgiving episode, Ashlee and Jennifer dive deep into the role of gratitude and positive mindset amid the demanding lives of first responders and their families. They share personal stories, practical strategies for resilience, and how gratitude can shift perspectives even when everyday life is challenging and unpredictable. Key Topics & Highlights Gratitude as a Tool for Resiliency: Ashlee and Jennifer discuss how practicing gratitude is not just a feel-good exercise but an active skill-building strategy to combat cognitive distortions and negative bias especially crucial for those regularly exposed to trauma and high-stress environments. Skill Building for Mental Wellness: Jennifer emphasizes that building resilience isn’t a “one and done” event; it’s about consistent practice. Tools like “hunt the good stuff” (noting three positive things daily) are highlighted as simple yet powerful routines. Conference Insights: Fresh back from a first responder conference, Ashlee shares reflections on how hard it can be to see the good when surrounded by negativity, reinforcing the psychological data that most of our happiness comes from our mindset, not just our actions. Leadership & Positive Psychology: The conversation explores leadership within first responder agencies and the impact of balancing constructive feedback with genuine appreciation. They extend this message to parenting and home life, showing how positive reinforcement can shape culture. Family & Holiday Traditions: Both Jennifer and Ashlee reminisce about growing up with first responder parents and share how their families made the best of holiday schedules and traditions. Whether at home or on the job. Ashlee recalls her dad’s department football games, and Jennifer reflects on celebrations surrounding her grandmother’s birthday. Safety & Situational Awareness: Ashlee recounts a story from a trip to New Orleans, illustrating the “built-in” situational awareness many children of first responders carry into adulthood, and the value of trusting one’s gut. Thankful for Community: Ashlee and Jennifer express deep gratitude for their listeners and the growing WTCHH community, acknowledging the support, engagement, and the ongoing journey of connection. If this episode resonated with you or if you have stories to share about living with a first responder, reach out to Ashlee and Jennifer on their social media platforms! Thank you for tuning in!

As this series draws to a close - and as the podcast quietly passes its 200th episode - I've found myself reflecting on silence.In this episode, I explore:The richness of silence as presence rather than absenceThe way how we journey and arrive can shape our capacity for stillnessWhat it means to land — in our bodies, our lives, and the earth itselfThe tenderness of being alone and being cared forThe healing spaciousness that silence offersRecorded from the warmth - and silence - of my kitchen, this conversation flows gently between reflections on retreat, stillness, and the quiet companionship of being with ourselves.If silence feels like something you're seeking - or perhaps avoiding - this may be a space to listen in and see what it reveals.With love.RESOURCESBOOK Silence: In the Age of Noise: Erling Kagge https://uk.bookshop.org/a/8926/9780241309889RECIPE TumTea: equal quantities of coriander and fennel seeds, steeped in hot water - drunk hot or at room temperatureINNER ADVENTURE Solo Retreat at Bach Brook Farm: https://www.hennyflynn.co.uk/Solo-Retreats ★ Support this podcast ★

In this essential episode, Kamini Wood provides a crucial guide to identifying red flags and green flags in teen and young adult relationships, emphasizing that early relationship patterns lay the groundwork for future health and self-trust. She details common red flags in the digital age, such as love bombing, possessiveness, constant monitoring (like checking Snap Maps or location), and public shaming masked as a joke. Conversely, Kamini outlines green flags, including respect for boundaries, support for independence, honest communication, and accountability. The episode is not only for young adults but also for parents and educators, stressing the importance of listening and validating feelings rather than lecturing, to ensure young people have the emotional safety to seek support and build the self-trust necessary for healthy connections.
Dr. Hoffman continues his conversation with Dr. Alan Rozanski, a distinguished Professor of Medicine at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai and Director of Nuclear Cardiology at Mount Sinai St. Luke's in New York City.

What does it really mean to be happy — not just on the good days, but through the hard ones too? In this solo episode, Ryann gets real about authentic happiness — exploring how to root yourself in purpose, connection, and meaning — and how to let gratitude and grief, joy and challenge, coexist in your daily life.
A quiet, meandering and emotional reflection on the intertwined nature of grief and belief.In this stream-of-consciousness episode, I explore:The many ways grief can show up — from loss of loved ones to the living grief of change or unrealised dreamsStillness as a doorway into the temple — whether we see that as stepping into our grief or allowing it to enter withinBelief as a gentle trust in our deep interconnectionThe comfort that comes when we remember we're not alone but part of something vast and wholeThe love that sits quietly inside it allAn invitation to sit with what is — the ache, the beauty, and our capacity to hold it all with tenderness.With love. ★ Support this podcast ★
When Listening Becomes Healing: The Practice of Radical Listening Professor Christian van Nieuwerburgh (PhD) is a leading academic, consultant, and executive coach whose work bridges the worlds of coaching, positive psychology, and human connection. He serves as Professor of Coaching and Positive Psychology at the Centre for Positive Health Sciences at RCSI University of Medicine and Health Sciences in Ireland and as a Strategic Partner for the Instructional Coaching Group in the United States. He is a certified executive coach through both the European Mentoring and Coaching Council (Master Practitioner) and the International Coaching Federation (Professional Certified Coach). Christian is widely published in the fields of coaching and positive psychology. His many books include Coaching in Education: Getting Better Results for Students, Educators and Parents, An Introduction to Coaching Skills: A Practical Guide, and Radical Listening: The Art of True Connection, with Robert Biswas-Diener. In this episode, host Shay Beider and Dr. van Nieuwerburgh explore the transformative ideas in his new book, Radical Listening: The Art of True Connection. Christian shares that listening is both a skill and an art and describes the importance of setting a positive intention before engaging with others. He outlines six core listening skills: the internal skills of noticing, quieting, and accepting, and the external skills of acknowledging, questioning, and interjecting. Throughout the conversation, Christian and Shay discuss how listening itself can be a powerful intervention—especially in healthcare settings, where being seen, valued, and heard can promote healing. Drawing from personal experience, Christian highlights the role of compassion and presence in true connection. The duo also explore barriers to communication and how simple acts of acknowledgment—what John Gottman calls turning toward bids—can build stronger bonds. This episode invites us to approach each conversation as an opportunity for connection, compassion, and shared humanity. Listen to the complete episode by clicking the player above.

In this episode, Kamini Wood explores the powerful and often misinterpreted silence in relationships that emerges during conflict, which is distinct from peaceful quiet. She explains that withdrawal is rarely about punishment; instead, it's often a survival mechanism or a shield rooted in old attachment wounds or feelings of shame that whisper, "You're not good enough." Kamini highlights the dangerous mismatch: one partner's silence (a form of protection) is received by the other as rejection or abandonment, eroding emotional safety. The episode provides crucial awareness for the "silent partner," validating their past use of silence as a protector, while offering small, actionable steps—like stating "I need to pause, but I want to talk about this later"—to break the pattern and start building a safer, more connected way of engaging in difficult conversations.

Gratitude journals. Green juices. Meditation apps. We've been taught happiness is a checklist, but what if that's only half the story?In this episode, we dive into the world of Positive Psychology and the concept of flourishing– living deeply, not just lightly. We explore the PERMA‑H model (Positive Emotion • Engagement • Relationships • Meaning • Accomplishment • Health) and what it really means to feel alive even when life isn't easy. If you've done all the “right” self‑care things and still feel off… you're not failing. You're human. And this episode is your gentle invitation to stop chasing happiness and start tending what matters. What You'll Discover:Why happiness as a finish line keeps us stuckHow the PERMA‑H model gives us a fuller picture of wellbeingHow cultural expectations twist engagement, achievement, health & moreA simple journaling exercise to map where you're full and where you need spaceWhy flourishing is rhythmic – not balanced or perfect “Flourishing is the whole spectrum – light and dark, joy and grief, purpose and pause. And learning to hold all of it – that's what it really means to be alive.”

When the world feels heavy, choosing joy can sound naïve. We think it's the most practical move you can make. In this heartfelt episode, we share how a brutal “year of authenticity” led to a bold decision to claim a “year of joy,” and why that choice reshaped daily life. You'll hear a reading from Small Pearl's Big Wisdom titled We Will Have Joy, then we unpack how gratitude and delight fade without tending, and how to bring them back through simple, repeatable practices.We explore joy as medicine for the soul: the counterweight that steadies your nervous system and expands your perspective during hard seasons. From dance rehearsals that dissolve stress in minutes to tiny present-moment miracles like a dog napping belly-up, we show how nothing outside needs to change for your inner state to shift. Joy doesn't erase facts; it equips you to meet them with more compassion, creativity, and clarity. You'll learn how to set morning intentions, close your day with a quick “what was joyful” check, and use movement, nature, and mindful naming to anchor goodness in real time.This conversation is for anyone who feels stretched thin yet wants a grounded way back to aliveness. We make the case that joy is not a reward for finishing the hard work; it's the fuel that makes the hard work possible. Walk away with practical tools to cultivate joy now, not “someday,” and a gentle nudge to claim even a few drops on the toughest days. If this resonated, tap follow, share it with a friend who needs light today, and leave a review to help more hearts find their way here.Tune in next week for a new episode to support and empower your light--Your Heart Magic is a space where heart wisdom, spirituality, and psychology meet.

In this episode, Kamini Wood dives into the dark reality of narcissistic manipulation, detailing how manipulators subtly twist facts and events to make victims doubt their own memory, feelings, and sanity. She explains that this is a form of gaslighting and a psychological warfare that targets a person's core identity, leading to nervousness, agitation, and a profound loss of self-trust because humans are wired for connection and trust. Kamini emphasizes that feeling confused or doubting yourself is not a sign of failure but a normal reaction to intentional distortion, and she provides crucial steps for healing, including journaling to anchor reality, seeking validation from trusted support, setting firm boundaries, and gently rebuilding the muscle of self-trust to move from a state of survival to one of being rooted in your own truth.
