In this deeply thought-provoking episode of True Power, I sit down with Carolyn Tate—a visionary writer, eco-feminist, and author of six impactful books, including The Purpose Project and Brave Women Write. Carolyn takes us on a journey through her remarkable life, from two decades in banking and marketing to embracing her passion for writing and empowering others to find their voice. Carolyn shares how a visceral moment of clarity led her to leave a career that no longer aligned with her values, sell her house, and take a sabbatical in France—a bold step that reshaped her life. She reveals the critical role of nature in fostering creativity, helping her—and countless others—find inspiration, purpose, and connection. We explore the transformative power of storytelling, not just as a way to express ourselves but as a tool to rebalance the world with empathy, impact, and justice. Carolyn discusses the concept of a "purpose project"—a personal passion that doesn't need to pay the bills but can profoundly enrich our lives. Her reflections offer both practical advice and a heartfelt reminder of the courage it takes to live authentically. This episode is a call to action for anyone feeling stuck, disconnected, or yearning for something more. Whether you're looking to create a life of meaning, rekindle your creativity, or align your work with your values, Carolyn's wisdom and experiences are a powerful source of inspiration.Timestamps:02:20 - Carolyn's journey from banking to writing: The moment that changed everything.08:45 - The connection between nature and creativity: Why decisions made in nature are different.15:30 - What is a purpose project, and why is it crucial for personal fulfillment?22:10 - How organizations can foster creativity and support employees' passions.28:30 - Carolyn's advice for embracing uncertainty and finding clarity through change.

It's time to have PASSION in your work-life. In this episode, Kimmy Powell shares how you can discover your true calling. Kimmy also provides a simple process from her book "The Passion and Purpose Project" that will help you reflect on interests, skills, and childhood dreams. She'll guide you in ruling out wrong fits and taking inspired action. Tune in to hear Kimmy's tips for awakening your inner passion.  Here are some power takeaways from today's conversation:  Awakening the inner child to find your true passion and calling How to get started with finding your calling How God guides us from whispers to knocks Find your path through self-awareness How to start with the end in mind [06:19] Awakening the Inner Child to Find Your True Passion and Calling Think back to what stuff excited you most as a kid before other people shaped your thinking. Remembering what you loved to do then can give you clues to your natural abilities and gifts. Reconnecting with that youthful part of yourself helps bring clarity around your real passions and purpose in life. [16:30] Finding Your Path Through Self-Awareness A lot of times people have an idea in their head of what they wanna do that's not realistic. And so, you've got to figure out what you really want versus what's actually possible. Cross off options that won't work to get clear on what's truly best for you. It's good to know what you don't want too, because that helps you put all the pieces together to see exactly what job would be the perfect fit. [19:44] God's Guidance: From Whispers to Knocks God first gently whispers ideas and insights to you. Then if you don't listen to the whispers, God will start shouting louder messages through more obvious signs or experiences. And if you still don't listen, God may ultimately deliver an experience that "knocks you over the head" – and leaves no doubt about the direction or lesson He is trying to impart. [27:37] How to Start with the End in Mind Think about how you wanna be remembered after you're gone - what difference or things you want people to say about you. Having a clear picture of your future self can help with choices now. Beginning by thinking big picture about goals and dreams keeps you focused on truly achieving your full potential. Notable quotes: [11:38] The child always knows roughly what they want to be – who they are at their core. [11:43] [14:42] If you can just find your lane, you don't really need to know where it ends. You just need to know that you're on the right highway. [14:50] [19:44] God whispers, then God shouts, and then God knocks you over the head. [19:47] [27:12] Design a life that is centered around you and not so much around what you think you should be – but what you actually are.

Do you know anyone who experiences high days then the next minute you turn around they are at the lowest point of their life? Bipolar disorder, also known as manic depression, is a mental condition that includes extreme mood swings. The reason for this disorder is unknown. It may be genetics, environment, altered brain chemistry or maybe even a combination of all. What does the life of one diagnosed with bipolar disorder look like? Mrs.Diana Mosley, a bipolar patient, who is now a successful business woman shares her story with her struggles and obstacles she faced.  Highlighted Quotes: “What I was doing was abnormal, over the top, not normal” “The extreme lows were suicidal thoughts, depression, and the lowest it could possibly go” “It was always chasing something and never just being happy with what I had and not being happy with who I was”  

It's 2023, not 1960.  We live in a world where electronic devices are there at any turn, are in any pocket, and are in any hand.  Where there are phones, there is social media. Where there is social media, there are pictures online. Pictures with lighting enhancement, filters, photoshopping, editing and much more. Seeing these pictures leads to a body dissatisfaction and wishing that one could change the way they look. These photos aren't just photos people view online; they increase body image insecurity and negative self-talk offline as well. What is the correlation between the media and the way we view our bodies?  What do teenagers do with a phone? Click on an app, swipe, and watch…  That watching affects the mental health of many teenagers and creates behavioral problems and outburst of emotions  Many questions may arise when you hear the phrase “social media and body image” To answer those questions join me on this episode with Dr.Len Newman, a professor of psychology and a social psychologist at Syracuse University Who conducts research on a wide range of mental health topics He specializes in the different effect social media pictures have on body image Join me on my next episode on bipolar disorder and the day to day life with one who is diagnosed Lastly, email me at mentalhealthimage@gmail.com for questions you would like answered or any concerns! Highlighted Quotes:  “ ‘I wish I looked like that', it is possible that spontaneously that is your first reaction, to compare yourself” “We compare ourselves to others more than we are consciously aware we are” “There are media effects on people's bodies satisfaction” 

Are you a teenager that constantly picks at specific parts of your body appearance you don't like? Are you constantly flooded with negative comments? Then you may want too look into BDD. Body Dysmorphic Disorder is the constant obsession with body image and the continual worry about flaws and how others perceive your opinions. In this episode we have a guest, Dr.Cynthia Van Golen a professor of neuroscience at the University of Delaware. We will go over the factors that play a role in BDD, the symptoms, the effects in behavior as well as go over questions you may have. Body dysmorphia and the feelings along with it can affect lives.  Hiding, feeling ashamed, embarrassed, can happen one day and the another day you are basically being eaten alive by negative self comments. Covering yourself, going to extreme lengths to hide yourself, constantly picking at yourself wishing you could look different.  The list of the thoughts that go around in patients diagnosed with BDD is endless. People have negative thoughts which leads to depression, suicidal thoughts and more.  This can be caused by a variety of reasons whether it may be the environment all the way to childhood drama. And many more factors. So how can we help those who are diagnosed?  Today we will answer this question with Dr.Cynthia Van Golen  Dr.Cynthia Van Golen is a professor of neuroscience at Delaware State It is vital to create a safe environment, make them feel comfortable and most importantly to be in a complete judge free zone. Letting an individual open up is the first step in getting better. Once that is established, help is the next step.  There are different treatments whether it may be therapy or medication or sometimes both.  How would I even know if someone is diagnosed?  What do I look for? To dive into these answers check out this episode on BDD with our guest speaker Dr.Cynthia Van Golen for more.  Join me on my next episode on how social media pictures affect teenagers where we can dive into the main root of this arising BDD problem  Lastly, email me at mentalhealthimage@gmail.com for questions you would like answered or any concerns! Highlighted quotes: “BDD is a gradual increase from an obsession of their appearance to the point it's affecting school, work, etc.”  “BDD and OCD have a very similar incidence.”  “This isn't ego, this isn't self absorption, there are changes that actually occur in the brain with people with BDD meaning this is a true illness.”  “If this is something you are facing, get help and do not feel alone.”

Lily is diagnosed with BDD and is invited to a pool party which she dearly wants to go to but is held back by this invisible rope of fear: how others will analyze and criticize her body.  She goes through stages of sadness, frustration, embarrassment, and obsession due to the obstacles she faces throughout the story.  As she goes through these moments, it is important to analyze and break down what is happening and what is going through her head, as her internal monologue screams at her and floods her with negative thoughts.  Highlight Quotes:  Lily desires to be perfect and look like the ideal image she has in mind because “BDD is all about being obsessed with the whole idea of looking perfect even when there is no such thing as perfect”.  She goes through and expresses different behavior changes such as covering herself since “a patient with BDD would go to extreme lengths to make them feel comfortable and not bring attention to their appearance.”  Throughout the whole story she has negative comments filling her head. “It's quite simple. If you don't like the way you look or think there is something wrong, you won't have the confidence you wish to have.” Wishing she could change herself she does an online search looking for different ways to lose weight scrolling for hours and hours browsing through weight loss treatments and surgeries to diets to pre-made workouts that focus on losing fat.  For more research here are some resources I found helpful in my studying:  https://books.google.com/books?hl=en&lr=&id=k9jQCwAAQBAJ&oi=fnd&pg=PR9&dq=body+dysmorphic+disorder+feelings&ots=CITdRdWEA2&sig=2qEGLx3pNAgy4TMTEm5zUxx2Fu4#v=onepage&q=body%20dysmorphic%20disorder%20feelings&f=false https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7114025/ https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/pdf/10.1177/1357034X09347222  https://link.springer.com/article/10.1023/A:1022090200057 https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0005796700001029 https://bmcresnotes.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/1756-0500-6-36 https://www.nhs.uk/mental-health/conditions/body-dysmorphia/#:~:text=BDD%20can%20seriously%20affect%20your,and%20even%20thoughts%20of%20suicide.

Does nature have a purpose? The simple scientific answer is no, but the fuller story is, of course, more complicated than that. Concepts like goal directedness, directionality, and even purpose are used - usefully! - in biology all the time. How can we reconcile these two realities? Today's guest on the HPS podcast is Professor Alan C. Love. Alan is professor of philosophy at the University of Minnesota and principal investigator of 'The Purpose Project'. Alan joins Samara Greenwood to talk about how we can develop richer understandings of purpose in the sciences, and potentially, more broadly.Alan also raises some interesting points on the challenges and opportunities of interdisciplinarity. He discusses what scientists need to be aware of when working collaboratively, and how philosophers of science can add great value.A transcript of the episode can be found here - https://www.hpsunimelb.org/post/episode-3-transcriptMore about Alan Love and his work:Project Website: ‘Biological Purpose' - https://www.biologicalpurpose.org/General Article: ‘Alan Love on the Science of Purpose' - https://bit.ly/AlanLoveArticleAcademic Article: ‘Organising Interdisciplinary Research on Purpose' -https://doi.org/10.1093/biosci/biac041  Thanks for listening to The HPS Podcast with your current hosts, Samara Greenwood and Carmelina Contarino.You can find more about us on our blog, website, bluesky, twitter, instagram and facebook feeds.

Mentoring teens is a scary thought, isn't it?  They carry attitudes, think they know more than you and rarely show gratitude.  Why would anyone want to invest in them when there are easier ways to contribute to society? And yet, they are our future.  They want to be successful, they just don't know how.  Between media addictions, fast access to drugs, mental health breakdowns, campus lockdowns, threats of mass shootings, the absence of available mentors and so much more, the odds are against them.

Carolyn Tate is a writer, educator and speaker and the author of six books including Brave Women Write and her best-selling book The Purpose Project. She is a pioneer of purpose in Australia and her book has inspired countless individuals to pursue their purpose and make an impact. Brave Women Write is her most recent book. It's a powerful call-to-action for women to harness the power of their words, to get writing and create personal and planetary change. As a river swimmer with a deep connection to nature, Carolyn's purpose is to write and share the stories that move us to remake the world. Carolyn and I were speaking about this topic of women who were bravely showing up to share their ideas of how to make things better, through writing and publishing books. Our discussion sparked this idea of using the podcast to inspire more women to write. There is no doubt we are experiencing a movement where many women are bravely showing up as protagonists of change in their industries. While this isn't limited to women, my experience and that of most of my co-conspirators, is that more women are driving purpose-led change than men. Perhaps it comes from the need to rebalance growth and winning with nurturing and sharing.  So today's episode is dedicated to the many women who are showing up bravely, as well as those who want to do more to show up bravely. Brave Women Write is a celebration as well as an invitation. Hope you enjoy this episode.    Some of the highlights Alice In Wonderland – an invitation to channel your inner “Alice” and go down that rabbit hole The importance of curiosity in our lives and through our writing The vital role of antagonists How to overcome imposter syndrome Being in the arena: Teddy Roosevelt and Brene Brown The voices we can share and the role of our ancestors Writing to connect to (and release) our deeper grief How sharing our stories will remake our world “Story Boxing” Ideas on how to start writing and storytelling An invitation to adventure Why do we need to be protagonists?

Episode #77. For the final episode of 2022, I am thrilled to be joined by Ahmad AbouZanat. Ahmad is a Qatar-born designer who balances modern minimalism with timeless elegance, seamlessly blending multicultural influences with different design styles and periods including his love for contemporary Parisian design. His design background can be characterized as the fusion of French and Middle Eastern aesthetics as well as his appreciation for contemporary architecture. Because he has been fully immersed in different regions throughout his life, he can relate to those who come from different cultural backgrounds or those with an affinity for distinctive design preferences. Ahmad was raised in Lebanon and now resides in New York City, he has successfully carved out a name for himself at the helm of PROJECT AZ. With a degree in interior design from the American University of Science and Technology in Beirut and an extensive resume of hospitality and residential design work in both Lebanon and the States,  Ahmad has gone on to finish projects all around the world including Beirut, New York, Tennessee, Washington DC, Paris, Jeddah, and Doha. Ahmad has been named to Architectural Digest Middle East's 2022 top 50 designers, profiled by the leading online marketplace 1stDibs' Introspective Magazine as a 2021 “Designer to Watch” and named as an “interior design visionary” in Christie's International Real Estate Magazine.  Ahmad also serves as a Founder and active board member of the interior design platform, Interior Collab where after the startup Homepolish collapsed, he came together with numerous other designers to advocate for the power of community amongst designers in the industry, share resources, help connect clients to designers and spearhead events that help the planet and local communities. This has been one of my favorite conversations on the podcast. I met Ahmad at the Kips Bay Decorator Show House in Dallas, Texas and loved his warm energy and loved his amazing design.  In our conversation today, Ahmad shares how he has built his successful design firm and has never given up on his dreams. I am so inspired by him and his story. Connect with Ahmad: Website Instagram Connect with Lupe: Website Instagram

Raise your hand if you ever had a mentor that changed your life. And I mean really got into the weeds with you and helped you realize your worth. If you are one of the lucky people to say yes to that with your hand up, then you are in a much smaller group than you might realize. Now watch that group get smaller. Raise your other hand if you have taken the time to mentor a teen in need. If you are like most people, you will probably only have one or no hands up at all.  It is a tough pill to swallow, grasping that we live in such an interconnected world where mentorship is a fun buzzword that is, more often than not, foreign to us.  Tragically, we are in a time where the next generation needs us to awkwardly have both of our hands up, high-fiving ourselves reading this. In recent years, any parent or family member knows of or has heard of a tragedy, mental illness, or stressor that teens today have gone through. With the recent pandemic, shutdown, the explosion of comparison culture on social media, and much more, teens are now going through more than ever.  With that, it makes three core questions more difficult to decipher and answer, leading to three of the most significant issues teens face today. 3 Core Hurts and Needs of Teens They do not have a connection to their identity → Who am I? They do not have a connection to their purpose → Why am I here? They do not have a connection to their sense of belonging → Where do I fit in? So many programs around the country have fought to help teens answer these questions without getting too lost or hurt in the process. Unfortunately, all of the largest teen mentoring organizations combined still only impact 1% of teens in America.  But we can do better. They need us to do better. Building a mentor model that is scalable and sustainable is something the next generation is yearning for, as you probably did too. With that, after decades of varied experience in the non-profit, corporate, and church world, our team has built a model that we believe can disrupt the teen mentoring industry. And while we don't think we have the silver bullet, we do believe that we are offering a different version of mentoring that is more efficient and effective.  Court systems, educators in classrooms, college sports teams, local businesses, and so many more have all experienced and been impacted by the Purpose Project.  Currently, we are on track to reach 10,000 students in the next three years. That will make us the biggest mentoring program in the state of Texas. And all of that happens inside of a mentoring model that only takes 1 hour a week, for 6 weeks. How, you might ask?  It's also the only thing standing in the way of the next generation of teens finding purpose and belonging. You! Your choice of whether or not to get involved. With our limited, part-time staff of 7 people, we have had the honor and privilege of partnering with hundreds of mentors already, and we know that with you, that's only the beginning. So check out today's episode and find out how you can help alter a teen's life in just 6 hours. After, if you're curious and want to find out more? Go through the Purpose Project yourself or sign up to become a certified guide and mentor at www.PurposePro.Org.  We cannot wait to see how the life of a teen is going to change by your impact. And neither can they!

Imagine the city you live in right now running out of water. And I mean just plain out of it. At first, it's a comical yet worrisome thought, right? What would you drink? How would you shower? What would you swim in? The list goes on. Now let's say you could do something to work against that or even prevent it. Where would you start? Or How? Or even would you? This simple question sparked a sense of service and care in this week's guest, former police officer and veteran, David McDonald.  David spent decades of his life serving how he knew best, whether in Desert Storm, deep in the communities of Austin, and now, he's set his sights on something even closer to home.  With his response to that water question being, "Yes, now how do I get involved?" He decided to try to join his city's council to make a difference. And he did just that by knocking on hundreds of doors campaigning for a position without pay, going on to win his runoff, and getting himself elected to since the time of this filming.  He did all that while serving in marriage ministry alongside his wife and mentoring local youth as a certified Purpose Pro mentor and guide.  David is a prime example of a value highlighted here by one of our co-hosts in this episode: You can do so much more with the 5 miles around your house than the 500 miles. Where your arms can reach is who you can most easily touch and impact.  David got off his couch in retirement and chose to do more than he was asked by impacting teens, marriages, and his city in the process. All because someone asked him, what if we don't have water?  Which led to: What if you can change that? What if you can impact this marriage? Or this teen? How could that change the trajectory of their life? Maybe all of that starts with clicking play on this episode, and then taking that inspiration even further by investing in the life of a teen just down the road from you. So go listen and then head over to PurposePro.Org to find out how you can be a certified Purpose Pro Certified Guide!

Dannelle speaks with occupational therapist, Emilia Bourland. In this episode, Emilia shares how we can reframe our approach to using mobility aides as tools of support and independence and how care partners should communicate needs and concerns for our own health and safety. Dannelle and Emilia discuss the importance of acknowledging our loved one's fear of loss of independence and why support systems are essential to gaining the most effective tools and information as a caregiver. “The way might not look like we think it should look or like it used to look, but when we open up our mind to the possibilities, when we stay open-minded as to how something can happen, it's limitless.” - Emilia Bourland Timestamps03:31 Emilia's three core values and how they connect to occupational therapy and caregiving 07:43 Educating people on caregiving by explaining the “how” and the “why” 10:07 How occupational therapists help with safety 13:21 An example of how an adaptation can help with transfers 18:46 Affordable places to buy durable medical equipment 21:24 How home health assessments can help improve accessibility 24:26 Paying for home health assessments with an occupational therapist 28:02 How to help loved ones adjust to integrating mobility aides 32:28 Examples of simple, inexpensive home modifications that will make life easier 37:02 Amelia's passions outside of caregiving Takeaway Learnings1. Balancing safety with support for our care partner's independence can be so challenging. Using mobility devices, adaptive equipment, and home modifications can help create a care environment that reduces risk of injury for both care partners, while also empowering more self-reliance in those we care for. 2. When we have the right information, we're empowered to make better decisions. The disconnect between educational resources and the people who need them most is frustrating, but most importantly know that they exist, and may require a little digging to find what works. It may also be helpful to enlist a professional, or provide additional information like the Home Modification Information Network, which has been developed with support from the Administration for Community Living. On their site, you can find educational materials, programs, policies, funding, and more resources by state. 3. If the person we care for is in medical crisis or rehabilitation, that's an optimal time to talk with an occupational therapist or other appropriate care specialist to do a home safety assessment. Actionable Tips1. Emilia talks about the difference our approach can make to help reframe how loved ones can understandably feel about using mobility aides. The default feeling is often that using a device like a walker or lift aid represents a taking away or loss of independence. When we're having these conversations, taking time to first think about how we present choices and their benefits can be helpful – like, “I want to support you in doing what you can for yourself for as long as possible”. So, we're addressing the fear and grief around loss of independence along with a potential help. 2. For those of us who provide educational support, training, or instruction, as care professionals, it's important we're clear about our role – which is not about trying to fix a single specific problem or situation, but rather asking ourselves, “What information can I share to help care partners make more informed decisions now and in future?” This is empowerment. 3. We need to take our physical strain and limitations seriously. Ask yourself, your support group, or consult with a professional about what kind of device aids, tools, or other assistance can help ease the strain of transfers or other daily caregiving activities. About Emilia BourlandEmilia Bourland, OTR, ECHM is the president and founder of Higher Standards Caregiver Training, as well as co-founder of The Purpose Project. She has been an occupational therapist for over 10 years, working in adult settings ranging from home health to the ICU, and everywhere in between.

She is nationally registered with the National Board of Certification of Occupational Therapists and is licensed as an occupational therapist in the state of Texas.

Show Notes Overview of who we are The problem we are solving (most of us are disconnected from our unique design and purpose) Stats that point to the problem; https://www.forbes.com/sites/davidsturt/2018/03/08/10-shocking-workplace-stats-you-need-to-know/?sh=51312e39f3af Our solution We need a guide that can quickly navigate us down a better path.  We need clarity and confidence around our unique design and purpose.  And we need a proven method that will empower us to take action and maximize our impact.   All of this is packaged together into an experience we call the Purpose Project.  When we delay the discovery of our purpose: we overlook our core strengths that give us a competitive advantage we spend time on tasks that don't align to our unique design we misinterpret what truly motivates ourselves or our team we unintentionally follow the same routines and patterns that limit our success we tend to let pivotal development opportunities like this never become a priority 5 Keys to Getting Unstuck Personally and Professionally 1. Become a student of history 2. Pursue an understanding of your unique design 3. Get clear on what you are pursuing 4. Take strategic steps with the support of others 5. Embrace your fears and take risks anyway Confidence is born out of experience, you only need to get it right once. The repetition of these 5 steps will result in living a life without regret.

Hello, hello, and welcome back to RISE: The Podcast with me, Anna Elovitz! I am so happy you back again for another episode. This week is very exciting because I am introducing you all to Emily from The Purpose Project! Emily is currently a grad student...

Often when we over commit we get so wrapped up in our frustration that we don't take stock of what "overwhelm" really feels like.  When we just get present without judgment of ourselves or the situation and just acknowledge what we're feeling by saying "This is what overwhelmed feels like" we can more easily recognize the feeling in the future and avoid committing ourselves beyond our capacity.  This is a great lesson for both adults and kids to tap into.At the end of the podcast I mention two upcoming free summits:The Evolving Humanity Summit - how to manage stress.The Purpose Project Summit - how to find and live your purpose.My interview about brain green zones will air on the Evolving Humanity Summit on Friday May 15 and my good friend Crystal's interview on the Purpose Project will air Friday also! Please access those short messages if they would serve you!
