If you're going through something intense right now, you're not alone. Our society is going through a major shift right now and it's up to each of us to lean into the transformation that's knocking at our door. Today on The Wellness Revolution, I'm joined by the wonderful Dr. Karin Luise, a Transformational Therapist, Divorce & Trauma Expert, and Award-Winning Author who has a powerful message to share with you. After two divorces, three children, and one PhD, Dr. Karin experienced a spiritual awakening that transformed her life from miserable to magical. She learned how to heal her mind, heart, and soul and expand her life with wild freedom and real happiness. Now, she's helping others do the same. This is one of the most raw, honest, soul-bearing conversations we've ever had on the podcast. Dr. Karin and I dive deep into the emotional impacts of divorce that no one talks about so we can normalize them and heal collectively. While sharing our truths, we discuss ways to process your emotions and thrive after divorce (or any difficult/traumatic experience). “Many people need to hear this: If something is coming up with your family, with your partner, with your children, it is because it is ready to be seen and ready to be healed and it's ready to be transformed.” – Dr. Karin Luise Remember ladies, your intuition is your super power. You'll know in your spirit if something isn't aligned with you… you just have to tap in and listen. Key Highlights: The collective shift our society is going through & How it's influencing us Our raw, honest feelings about divorce How Dr. Karin's divorces fueled a spiritual awakening The biggest sign your relationship is out of alignment How do you tap into your intuition and follow your inner voice? Limiting beliefs you need to let go of to have vulnerable conversations How to know you're falling into the victim mentality & How to regain control of your life The 1st step to processing intense emotions or a difficult experience The key to getting what you want in life How to recover from break ups or divorce and walk away stronger and more empowered Episode Resources: Join Crush Life Boot Camp: https://products.ambershaw.com/crushlife Get 10% off your Serenity Gummies from CURED Nutrition with code: AMBER10 at curednutrition.com!

Have you ever caught yourself checking emails while on vacation, or find it difficult to truly unplug and enjoy downtime? You're not alone. America's hustle culture has us collectively wrapped around the notion that work should always come first, often at the expense of our health and well-being. In our latest episode, we peel back the layers of this phenomenon, revealing how our national reluctance to take time off not only underscores our values but also impacts our quality of life. Together, we question the undercurrent of fear that keeps us tethered to our desks and share personal tales that highlight the importance of setting boundaries for a healthier work-life integration. The conversation deepens as we scrutinize the generational shift in work values, especially as it pertains to Gen Z's approach to work and leisure. We challenge the negative stereotypes, celebrating instead their prioritization of time and mental health. But it's not just about generations; it's about a collective realization. I recount a friend's story of woodworking purely for the joy of it, untouched by the itch to monetize, prompting us to think about how we can all protect our personal sanctuaries from the pressure to hustle. This episode isn't just an exploration; it's a call to rediscover the joy in hobbies that don't come with a price tag and the balance that leads to a more fulfilling existence. To cap off our journey, we tackle the often-misunderstood concept of productivity, emphasizing that efficiency in work should serve to increase our leisure and not the other way around. We share uplifting anecdotes about individuals who've successfully crafted lives that prioritize passions and family over work without sacrificing professional success. Wrapping things up, we laugh over the irony of how setting firm boundaries can sometimes be the key to success, both personally and professionally. So, join us for an engaging discussion that's all about redefining success, embracing rest, and the courage it takes to say "no" in a world that constantly demands "yes. --------- EPISODE CHAPTERS --------- (0:00:01) - Critiquing the Culture of Hustle (0:10:18) - Work-Life Balance and Overcoming Fear (0:24:45) - The Balance Between Work and Purpose (0:32:46) - Scarcity Mindset, Gen Z, Embrace Hobbies (0:43:45) - Challenging Hustle Culture (0:50:13) - Productivity and Time Off Importance (1:01:01) - Setting Work-Life Boundaries for Success --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/warriormindset/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/warriormindset/support

*This episode was first published February 5th 2022.*Sarah and Nippy were in the NXIVM (said Nexium) cult for 12 and 16 years respectively. In early 2017, Sarah was invited into a secret women's sect of the cult called DOS. She was asked to strip naked, was blindfolded and led into a room with several other women. She was then instructed to repeat the words "Master, would you brand me? It would be an honour" and she was branded with the cult leaders initials. It wasn't long after, that Sarah and Nippy along with a small band of close friends, blew the whistle and alerted the media and authorities about the crimes of Keith Raniere. He ended up being sentenced to 120 years in prison for sex trafficking and racketeering charges, among others.In this episode, I spoke to Sarah and Nippy about their experiences within the cult, how they got out and how they have begun their healing process to regain their lives and families.

Over 10,000 people per year return to Oklahoma communities after periods of incarceration. In other states, policymakers have understood and invested in comprehensive re-entry networks to provide services and job-matching for those folks leaving prison. Re-entry networks and services are key to preventing recidivism and improving outcomes for people returning to society. But Oklahoma has been a top incarcerator in the world from the early 2000's through 2018. We invited Colleen McCarty back to discuss the data and research surrounding this complex issue in Oklahoma. But more important than any data, this episode features the real stories of Oklahoman's for Criminal Justice Reform's ambassadors. They detail what re-entry truly looked like, where they are today, and where Oklahoma desperately needs change. A special thank you to Damita Price, Zeke Gonzales, Gina Richie, and Derwin Romani for sharing their stories with us.

Most times, when we're presented with struggles, it's an opportunity for us to learn. Just coming back from a relapse, Stephanie feels lonely, stressed, and not good enough. For years, living at home with alcoholic family members, her idea of love from her family was transactional and limited. For years, the sense of loneliness caused her to comfort herself with drugs and alcohol when nobody else was able to.  In today's Omar Pinto Coaching Podcast, the group helps Stephanie learn to begin the process of trusting herself to learn how to re-parent and find empowerment within her own life. When we find ourselves alone, scared, and isolated, we teach ourselves how to survive with maladaptive coping mechanisms because it's the only choice we have. When these tools stop working, we must reach out, learn how to accept help, and begin the work to access the empowerment we all have within.  In this week's Podcast, you'll learn: How to access our feelings of empowerment anytime we want them How beating ourselves up turns into a snowball effect that can lead to relapse How to begin the process of trusting ourselves to find self-love For the show notes and links for this episode go to omarpinto.com/020. ***  Get 1-on-1 Life Coaching with Omar Pinto!

Lt. Joe Takes us on a trip through the never-ending changes taking place in our lives and in our country. From the COVID fears to the chaos of our elections, what do we want from our lives and futures? How do we move forward to a better place? Personal triumphs of the family often help us see the world in a better focus, to put into perspective the events of our lives. Lt Joes give us a glimpse into a sense of pride he feels as his son becomes an Eagle Scout and what that means in the bigger picture of life. And finally, we look at the back and forth of the presidential election and where I might end up on January 23, 2021. Was our Republic mortally wounded by fraud and stolen votes or did Americans just decide to go back to another time?  Don’t miss it!

Have you ever found yourself feeling like everything looks the same on the outside, but everything on the inside of you has changed? If you’ve found yourself checking out of your life in unexplained ways and not able to fully name it, this episode is for you. We talk about the undercover world of grief, burnout, and reclaiming our lives after experiencing the invisible losses that we often overlook and dismiss.  In today’s conversation I get cozy with Christina Rasmussen. Christina is an acclaimed grief educator, author of Second Firsts and Where Did You Go? Which have been extremely helpful books for my own family as we navigate grief and loss. She is also the host of The Dear Life Podcast and founder of The Life Reentry Institute at lifereentry.com.  I recently signed up for her Life Reentry class, which has helped countless people break out of what she coined the “waiting room” of grief to rebuild our lives. She describes grief as a catalyst for redefining identity, and outlines the process of “reentry” where we return to our lives. Her  work has been featured at ABC News, Washington Post, and the White House Blog. You can find more of her brilliant work at christinarasmussen.com and secondfirsts.com. Christina’s mission is to change the way we grieve, the way we live, and how we define our potential in this life, and the hereafter.  What you'll hear (and don't want to miss!): :: The symptoms that can indicate burnout, or not living in alignment  :: The way that she has been able to transform her grief and loss into a movement that is healing so many other people  :: What the safe space of the “waiting room” is all about  :: Christina’s re-entry and the ways that she is now transforming her life (and how you can too after invisible losses)  :: Why she is saying no to money and additional opportunities daily, without feeling guilty about it  :: Christina’s best practices and rituals for writing, plus how she stays connected to the creative process  You can find the full show notes from this episode over at https://jadahsellner.com/grief-burnout-reclaiming-lives-177

Happy Thursday! Oklahoma had an ice storm! Bernadette didn't know, but Junior saw that the storm's name was Billie! Coincidence? We don't know! We have a great show in store for you today with Jackie Schlegel on at the half with everything we need to know about vaccine choice before we Election Day! First up, we have author Denna Babul talking about politics and relationships, so let's get started! Jackie Schlegel Jackie is the Executive Director for Texans for Vaccine Choice. In 2015, when legislators were led astray and filed oppressive bills that would take away parental rights and vaccine choice, Jackie Schlegel stepped up to the plate, said not on my watch. She threw her hat into the political arena. In just four short years, she took a group of passionate moms and turned it into the epitome of grassroots activism. They’ve set an unprecedented standard for the nation and even drawing worldwide attention. That fledging group of 20 is now a political action committee and educational foundation, with over 30,000 social media followers as well as 12,000+ official members who proudly align themselves with Texans for Vaccine Choice. Thanks to Jackie’s endless energy and passion, this group is organized with local branches, core members, and team leaders impact- ing their schools, their communities, and their legislators. Her unshakeable dedication inspires all members to have a laser focus on their mission of protecting and advancing informed con- sent, medical privacy, and vaccine choice. What Voters Need To Know About Vaccine Choice Before Election Day You are not alone. We are not alone! This is not a small group of people taking on the biggest big Pharma money maker ever. You have the right to ask the questions about your health! COVID has changed the vaccine conversation. Across the board, both left and right have questions about a COVID vaccine. The big question is that if it is going to be mandated. Jackie doesn't want to separate this conversation between conservative and liberal. Jackie encourages everyone to learn about every stance your candidate takes! There is no one on the planet who loves your child more than you. You can your child's best interest at heart. You have rights! Texas For Vaccine Choice is here to support you no whether what your decision in when it comes to vaccines. We need more science, we need more research.   Denna Babul Denna Babul is a relationship expert, author, TV personality and public speaker. She is the Founder of the Fatherless Daughter Movement, and an award-winning author of “The Fatherless Daughter Project: Understanding Our Losses and Reclaiming Our Lives.” In Denna’s latest book “Love Strong: Change Your Narrative, Change Your Life, and Take Your Power Back!” she uses her years of experience as a relationship coach and her personal experience to give people with relationship dilemmas a guide to taking their power back. Through her work, Denna has helped thousands of clients get the love they want. Are Relationships And Politics A Healthy Match? We need Denna's help right now! Politics are playing such a large role in relationships. Look any your intentions when discussing politics. Do you want to cause a fight and make someone choose? Do you want to debate? Go into it with intentions. Bernadette brings up a personal problem with a friend and who is voting for who. Denna Babul says that the person who gives their friend an ultimatum probably has attachment issues. Core beliefs are what we are. What makes us sit on a rocking chair with someone else in out 80's is if we respect each other beliefs. Have a safety word or a gesture! Denna says she knows a couple that when things are getting too heated, they say a word and begin to slow dance to bring the emotions down. You have to remember that people often vote one side or the other because of specific stances. Say you have someone who votes republican because of their pro-life stance on abortion.

Happy Thursday! It's dysfunctional relationship day here at One Life Radio! Bernadette speculates over 50% of the population struggle with their relationships. Renaldo guesses 98%! We have a great show in store with Denna Babul and Von Eaglin, so let's jump right in! Denna Babul Denna Babul is a relationship expert, author, TV personality and public speaker. She is the Founder of the Fatherless Daughter Movement, and an award-winning author of “The Fatherless Daughter Project: Understanding Our Losses and Reclaiming Our Lives.” In Denna’s latest book “Love Strong: Change Your Narrative, Change Your Life, and Take Your Power Back!” she uses her years of experience as a relationship coach and her personal experience to give people with relationship dilemmas a guide to taking their power back.

How to Love Someone Dealing with A Mental Health Crisis It is possible to have a relationship with someone dealing with a mental health crisis. 1 in 5 people have a mental illness! Mental illness looks like many different things. If you are in a relationship with someone struggling with mental illness, you will typically feel it in your gut first. COVID-19 is definitely making dating harder. Denna says to never call a woman crazy! Typically, crazy is just passionate. It is about how to funnel that passion into something healthy. After a relationship, women are typically left looking for themselves because they put so much into someone else. Narcissism is pretty big in our society. When you can't find out who you are, so when you can't find out where you start and end, you experience confusion. Denna says that most people don't know that they are a narcissist or have BPD, so the beginning of the relationship is typically easy. People don't love to go to therapy, because they associate therapy with craziness. When writing "Love Strong," Denna wanted people to look at their past and present. Find a relationship mentor and ask them all your relationship questions! Bernadette asks how you can know when your partner has a mental health issue. Denna says that anxiety, fear, or withdrawing is mild, but once someone has a thought to end their life, you need to step in. Go to Denna's website and take the free quiz about how strong you're loving!

Healthy vs Unhealthy Attachments In Relationships Therapists from a long time ago hypothesized that attachments in romantic relationships stem from how much attachment you formed as a child. Interesting! Your parents play a major role in how you attach to your partner. If your parents were really responsive to you, you typically will have a secure attachment style. Anxious attachment style is when your parents were typically not consistent with their responsiveness. In an adult relationship, that will manifest in a different way. The biggest type of attachment is avoidance attachments, so the parent was very distant at all times. Avoidance manifests in bad ways when adults enter romantic relationships. Don't fret! There are healthy ways for adults to attach in relationships. Someone who is avoidant will avoid contact and generally avoid letting you get too close to them! People who have avoidant attachment style will act out when they want attention in the relationship. They will typically start fights out of nowhere to get attention.

This show is about empowering women to recover not only from the debilitating effects of breast cancer but breast cancer treatment. Too often recovery is addressed as a black and white issue - either conventional medicine or alternative medicine. Our guest will discuss the integrative approach combining the best of both so we reclaim our lives during and after cancer treatment for breast cancer.This show is broadcast live on Friday's at 1PM ET on W4CS – The Cancer Support Network (www.w4cs.com) and W4HC - Health Cafe Live Network (www.w4hc.com) part of Talk 4 Radio (http://www.talk4radio.com/) on the Talk 4 Media Network (http://www.talk4media.com/)

We'll be consistent one day.

Over the last few weeks, I have really been thinking about this idea of reclaiming myself. Taking back the pieces of my life and self that I feel I have lost. In today's modern world, women put themselves last...after their businesses, their families, their friends and their to-do list. We might steal a few moments to ourselves, but we have lost a deeper connection to our feminine and our internal, still, quiet wisdom. So today Laura and I are exploring what does it mean for women to reclaim themselves and their lives. This is a very important piece for liberation for women because until we reclaim ourselves, we will never be truly free. It is a deep dive today, but a great conversation.

Losing her father can impede a girl's emotional and relational development – that's tough to overcome. At this moment, tens of millions of fatherless daughters of all ages are struggling to step out of the stigma of being fatherless and start moving toward self-survival and success. "Fatherlessness is a journey," says Deena Babul, RN, and co-founder of the Fatherless Daughter Project. "It's not something you're supposed to get over. The pain of losing one's father tends to go underground, and it really doesn't resurface until the fear of abandonment (gets triggered)." Annie, a fatherless daughter herself, talks with Deena about how the loss of a father can affect a girl (physically, emotionally, spiritually) and how to journey through it.
