“I wanted to do the work I was trained to do and to help treat their cancer, but also to help them live well in the long term.” - Dr. Allison QuickSometimes, when people consider training in health coaching skills, there's a lingering worry that they'll have to completely leave the conventional system they're already a part of. Whether you're a physician, nurse practitioner, physical therapist, or something else, many of our graduates have stayed within the convention systems and simply expanded into new offerings for patients and clients.At first, this might come with growing pains for you and your organization, but ultimately, it's so valuable to make this change from within since conventional practices are where most of the patients are. Many of these patients want and can benefit from additional support on their healing journeys, and your health coaching skills can help them navigate this.Today, I'm thrilled to introduce you to Dr. Alison Quick, one of our Women's Health Coach Certification Program graduates who has done just this. Dr. Allison is a radiation oncologist who works at Ohio State University in the women's health oncology specialty and uses her coaching training to improve long-term health outcomes for her patients.In this conversation, Dr. Allison and I discuss what it looks like to integrate health coaching into oncology, Dr. Allison's career journey, the challenges of motivating survivors to adopt healthier lifestyles, the importance of addressing emotional and relational health, the benefits of health coaching for both patients and healthcare professionals, and more.Enjoy the episode, and let's innovate and integrate together!Learn more or watch the video version of this conversation at https://integrativewomenshealthinstitute.com/how-holistic-recovery-support-improves-cancer-care-with-womens-health-coach-graduate-dr-allison-quick/.Connect with me and access our entire platform at IntegrativeWomensHealthInstitute.com (https://integrativewomenshealthinstitute.com/).

From asking for help to changing the way I viewed food and my body, I'll walk you through the ups and downs of my journey with honesty and encouragement.

Join Joe McDonald as he reads from the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous, discussing the importance of honesty and engagement with authentic recovery support in Steps 5, 6, and 7 AA. Joe highlights the significance of finding the right support to increase the chances of recovery success.“Small wonder many in the medical profession have a low opinion of alcoholics and their chance for recovery. We must be entirely honest with somebody if we expect to live long or happily in this world. We here at New Freedom are developing a new product to help with that engagement. They say small wonder people in the medical profession have a low opinion of alcoholics and their chance for recovery. And modern recovery has about a three percent success rate, maybe as high as 10 depending on who you ask. But if you engage for 28 weeks or longer, the odds go to 70 percent and higher. So what we want you to understand is we want you to engage with people who understand who are going to share their experience, not their opinion.”Joe's discussion underscores the value of connecting with those who share their experiences authentically, providing the necessary support for a successful recovery journey.Join us as Joe McDonald reads and expands on the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous, offering deeper understanding and practical advice for those on their recovery journey.

In this podcast episode, Dr. Fred Moss interviews Duncan Bhaskaran Brown, a motivational speaker, author, and dancer who transformed his life after two decades of overindulgence. From sharing the stage with S-Club to being the Mayor of his hometown, Duncan shares his unique journey and how he kicked unhealthy habits through training with the Easyway clinic. The episode promises humor, personal anecdotes, and insights into overcoming excess. Along with Duncan's entertaining jokes (despite potential kebab stains on his favorite t-shirt), listeners can expect a blend of wisdom and laughter in this engaging conversation about pushing overindulgence out of life.   Key takeaways from this podcast interview: After 20+ years of heavy drinking sparked by social anxiety, Duncan achieved sobriety in his late thirties through self-reflection. ⁠Realizing helping others quit drinking aligned perfectly with his skills, he felt compelled to share his greatest personal success.  ⁠Duncan takes a holistic view beyond just alcohol cessation to build coping methods for stress and emotions formerly managed through drinking. With binge drinking so common yet poorly addressed, he collaborates with coaches and companies to incorporate alcohol's performance impact into training.   Childhood or adult trauma strongly correlate to problematic drinking, but social reasons like fitting in also drive overindulging. He strives to meet clients where they are to map a personalized path, feeling no single system universally works. Integration of approaches is key. While some need medical help stopping, most people Duncan aids still function though alcohol causes problems. His support reduces withdrawal risks.   Links: https://www.bhaskaranbrown.com/about-us/ https://www.youtube.com/@RealMenQuit https://www.facebook.com/BhaskaranBrown   Show Notes: Overcoming addiction and improving health. 0:00 Quitting alcohol and smoking with a therapist. 3:55 Coping with stress and addiction. 8:19 Addiction, vices, and recovery. 14:53 Addiction recovery and support. 19:12

Wildfires have forced thousands to leave their homes in British Columbia and the Northwest Territories. Guest host Susan Bonner speaks with people grappling with that threat to their communities, and asks federal Minister of Emergency Preparedness Harjit Sajjan what the government is doing to help.

As we fight through layers of judgment and trauma, our "recovery" is regaining our true selves. The purpose of recovery is to no longer be a copy of someone else's vision. And how do we accomplish this? By intentionally creating expert systems to help you along the way. Tune in to this epeisode as we cover the first six expert systems, Intention, Self-care, Accountability, Study, Reflection, & Recovery Support.

Sara Howe, Senior Director at Third Horizon Strategies, is back with Samantha to talk about the importance of recovery support service models when working toward improving health outcomes. 

In this episode we chat to Paul O'Donoghue who set up Queer Recovery Support Belfast after celebrating a year of sobriety! Paul talks about how difficult it can be to be a member of the LGBTQ+ community when deciding to remove alcohol - you've found a community that you feel accepted in, but then go against the grain by choosing sobriety. He also talks to us about how it wasn't just alcohol that he needed to remove from his life - he also regularly used both cocaine and cannabis - and he talks about how alcohol went hand-in-hand with both substances. We are delighted that Paul isn't just out there doing his thing in the sober space - he's also a hugely valued Over The Influence community member! We have loved getting to know Paul over the last few months, and we know you'll love him too. If you'd like to find out more about Paul or  Queer Recovery Support, search for @qrs_belfast on Instagram. --- Get In Touch: Of course, you can always get in touch with us (publicly or privately) on our socials - @alcoholfreepod on Instagram, or search for "Over The Influence" on Facebook.

Paul Young- “Coercive Control with Shadow Weavers EDU-S04E48”Rhiannon is a 31 year old Indigenous woman living in Upstate New York with her Master and two cats. She has been a 24/7 slave in the BDSM community since 2015. While serving she also worked as a Pro-Domme online and in person for the same amount of time. In 2021 Rhiannon took over as Co-Director of MAst Rochester- a chapter of the international organization, Masters and slaves together. This organization historically was founded by members of the gay leather community and seeks to help those who are interested in learning more about power-exchange within the lifestyle and authority based relationships. Rhiannon has been leading workshops and BDSM 101 presentations for about 3 years now. She has filled many roles within her submission from babygirl, to slave, to human house pet and identifies as a divine concubine to honor her sacred sexuality within her current dynamic.In addition to her lifestyle experience, Rhiannon has worked with adults who have severe and persistent mental illness for 8 years. She has served that community in many positions from residential and peer counseling, to apartment programs that seek to help those with mental illness maintain their independence. Rhiannon has worked with a variety of individuals living with mental illness from schizophrenia, borderline personality disorder, PTSD and substance use disorder as well as those with neurodivergence and those fleeing domestic violence. She hopes to serve as an example of a person with mental illness successfully engaging in BDSM to those in the community seeking acceptance and fighting the stigma, as she also lives with bipolar disorder and PTSD. Aside from her professional background, Rhiannon also is a survivor of domestic violence and of coercive control.

Coercive control is an act or a pattern of acts of assault, threats, humiliation and intimidation or other abuse that is used to harm, punish, or frighten their victim. This controlling behavior is designed to make a person dependent by isolating them from support, exploiting them, depriving them of independence and regulating their everyday behavior. Coercive control creates invisible chains and a sense of fear that pervades all elements of a victim's life. It works to limit their human rights by depriving them of their liberty and reducing their ability for action. Experts like Evan Stark liken coercive control to being taken hostage. As he says: “the victim becomes captive in an unreal world created by the abuser, entrapped in a world of confusion, contradiction and fear.”Source: https://www.womensaid.org.uk/information-support/what-is-domestic-abuse/coercive-control/Examples and how to recognize it:Behavior ControlInformation ControlThought ControlEmotional ControlImportant Links:Full show notes: https://kuldrinskrypt.com/448National Suicide Hotline: 1-800-273-8255NCSF Kink Aware Professionals: https://www.kapprofessionals.org https://kuldrinskrypt.com/silentcommunication https://KuldrinsKrypt.com/survey https://kuldrinskrypt.com/TeePublic Show Producers:Become a show producer: https://KuldrinsKrypt.com/Patreon Make a one-time donation: https://KuldrinsKrypt.com/PayPal Snail mail a donation or gift:Kuldrin Entertainment, LLC257 N.

Young people often feel left out of the conversations around recovery from substance abuse, even though more and more are finding themselves caught up in the grips of addiction. They need support and validation from people who "get it" and understand what they are going through. Enter Massachusetts Young People in Recovery, who's working hard to show people recovery is possible. Haley Barbieri, Program Director of MYPiR, joins the show this week to tell us about their efforts. PLUS: The wool's going to be flying in Waltham, with lambs, rams, ewes, and other animals on the grounds of Gore House. It's almost time for the annual Sheepshearing Festival, but it's about so much more than chasing around sheep. Emily Robertson, Marketing Manager at Gore Place, has all you need to know about this fun event!

Sonia Kahlon founded EverBlume as the need arose for her own support in her sobriety journey. Now 8 years sober, she is changing lives by providing connection and support for others that are either curious about sobriety or ready to make a change. Sonia created a business of what she desired: meetings with connection and a focus on differing perspectives. I was so excited to share her story of her sobriety path, and how she used her own alcoholism to create something to better others' lives. The beauty is that it can simply be a benefit to not drink; it doesn't require lifelong hard-and-fast rules.  Today we cover Sonia's story of drinking daily for years as a functioning alcoholic, and how she finally decided to change her own life, and ultimately found EverBlume.

Inpatient treatment centers for addiction and/or mental health conditions can be a life saving measure.  But once the treatment is complete, then what? A treatment plan looks great on paper, but it's just that, it's only a piece of paper! When you return home and to your life, how will you remain accountable to your new habits, stay connected to community support (or develop new community supports), manage your emotions, tackle problems when they arise, and continue other therapies? What if you don't even have access to a treatment center in the first place to start this journey? This is where WEconnect Health steps in to provide long term support for living in your real life whether you experience mild anxiety and stress in the workplace, to being in recovery from addiction. Matt chats with Daniela Luzi Tudor, the Co-founder, about her experience that inspired her to build the company and a place to find all of the tools needed to to help you lead a healthy and joyous life. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/industry-alchemist/support

Have you thought about quitting alcohol on and off for years--especially after a night of over-doing it? But once the hanxiety wears off, sobriety feels complicated and overly dramatic? The primary problem is not how much you drink. The problem is that you're relying on shame as a motivator. And once you feel better and the shame goes away, your motivation goes with it. You're a perfectionist, not an alcoholic. In this episode, I give you the five steps to emotional sobriety so that you can unlearn perfectionistic thought loops. Deal with life as it is instead of arguing with yourself about how it should be. Learn how to feel confident about who you are--with or without a drink in your hand.  Want to learn more about The Next Chapter? Click here.  Like this episode?

You never planned on getting where you are with alcohol.Because it didn't help you get to where you are.For this reason, you know it's not necessary for your future.It appears to be such a huge, famiar part of your past, that the future with out it feels like a void.Alcohol is not a destination. It wasn't the big part of your journey you think it was. It's a drug that over rides your experiences because of the unnatural response it has in the body AND how it inhibits your memory to such a huge extent. Rather than seeing the past and future as black and white, look at the evidence, not just your conditioned memories. Look to your future as possibility of a trajectory, not a void. I want to personally invite you to spend one hour with me. Because you deserve to know what's holding you back. It's your time. Alcohol has had its fair share. How you can get on the fast track to freedom from alcohol and stay there.To schedule your complimentary call HERE.  This hour is just for you. I want to personally invite you to spend one hour with me.
