You are the portal. You are the Source.

Send us a textIn this week's episode of the Fragmented to Whole Podcast, I'm talking with my long-time recovery friend, Renee N., and her story is absolutely incredible. She grew up in chaos — emotional abuse, addiction, violence, and zero safety — and spent decades dissociated and trying to survive.Recovery changed everything.Renee shares how reading the 14 Traits of an adult child made her feel seen for the first time, how meetings and therapy helped her start telling the truth, and how she slowly found enough internal safety to live in her authentic identity. We talk about people-pleasing, overworking, childhood roles, and the shock of finally experiencing serenity when you've lived your whole life in chaos.Now she's present. She's grounded. She's no longer apologizing her way through the day. And she's living a life she truly never thought was possible as a transgener woman.This conversation is full of honesty, hope, and the kind of transformation that only happens when you stop surviving and start healing.Be sure to tune in to all the episodes to receive practical tools for living a more whole life and to hear even more about the points outlined above.Thank you for listening!

Send us a textIn this episode of Healing Mindset, I had the opportunity to sit down with Nazish and take a deep dive into one of the most mission-critical conversations of our time: re-parenting the five-year-old inner child. This is the age where so many of our emotional blueprints take shape—our early coding around love, safety, belonging, expression, and visibility.I unpack how emotional imprints are formed not just in childhood, but as early as the womb. These imprints quietly drive adult behaviors—jealousy, anxiety, people-pleasing, overachieving, emotional shutdowns—and most of the time, they're not “adult issues” at all. They're the unspoken needs of a silenced inner child asking to be seen, held, and led.During this conversation, I share practical, energetically aligned ways to recognize your inner child's signals and how to respond without re-opening old wounds. Re-parenting isn't about fault-finding—it's about stepping into emotional leadership. It's about becoming the deeply present, regulated, and compassionate parent your five-year-old self needed so you no longer outsource your worth to relationships, family dynamics, or performance.If you feel blocked, disconnected from joy, or stuck replaying the same relationship patterns, this dialogue gives you grounded frameworks you can deploy across your life—work, love, family, and self-worth. You'll walk away with a forward-looking roadmap for nervous system safety, trauma repair, and authentic self-connection that enables not just personal healing but generational transformation.About Me:I'm an intuitive empath, healer, and spiritual teacher dedicated to supporting “adult children” who never had the chance to fully recover from early emotional injuries. My work centers on inner child healing, generational trauma release, and energetic re-patterning.Through live transmissions, energy work, and guided inner journeys, I help individuals reconnect with their five-year-old self, reclaim their creativity, and build the internal safety they've long been missing. My core philosophy is simple: when you become the emotionally available parent you never had, everything in your life recalibrates—your relationships, your health, your leadership, and your joy.Key Takeaways:Inner child wounds are not trendy language—they are the foundational drivers behind recurring patterns in relationships, work, and self-worth.Your inner child speaks through triggers, shutdowns, and “childlike” emotional reactions. These are insights, not weaknesses.Re-parenting is an act of radical ownership—stepping into the role of your most emotionally present caregiver.Core emotional templates can begin forming in the womb. A mother's internal world often becomes the child's first nervous system environment.Healing doesn't require reliving trauma.

What if the way your needs were met in infancy still shapes your ability to feel safe, seen, and supported today?Welcome to the end-of-year challenge: The Return to Magic. Today, Lacy, Jessica, and EMDR-certified LMFT Janelle dive deep into the foundation of all manifestation work: your earliest subconscious blueprint set in childhood. This episode explores the powerful programming from ages zero to 18 months. It's a period most people don't remember, but it's when your soul touched down into your human body—and profoundly shapes who you are today. This early stage is where safety, secure relationships, and boundaries are formed, and Janelle helps us understand how the presence (or absence) of these things can leave us feeling out of balance.This conversation is a reminder that our TBM practice is here to bring us back to our most whole selves. We are not destined to stay stuck in old patterns or loops that don't serve us. We can start from the very beginning and manifest the lives we're meant to embody. This is the work that changes everything.

Episode 257How We Re-Parent OurselvesSensers! So there's cliche statement that some women of today love to utter…”once I meet a man who is masculine then I'll show my feminine/softer side of my personality” or some shit like that. Granted we as a society hear this but what is the actual possibility of this coming true to life? Believe it or not, I believe that it can happen. Let's talk about it!So if you were ever born on this earth in America, there's a strong chance that you had some form of trauma, however, after a certain point…blaming your parents/family for it becomes outdated and then accountability for rehabilitation comes into play. So what are you going to do to aide in your own healing? Yes you are not responsible for what happened to you, but we can agree that we are responsible for how we interpret the pain, our thoughts on the action, and how we're going to over come this.“Love conquers all…” One would love to believe this statement from fairy tales and Disney stories but I believe it's not that simple. Those of us who have been around you humans for sometime learn that it takes more than love to make a relationship, be with a mate, family, or friend to last the test of time. Peep my perspective here!May God and His Universe remove any negative energy you may have stored from reading this. If you dig the episode, click, like, and share on your page.

There's a version of you a younger version who still remembers the pain, the criticism, the emotional neglect, and the moments she didn't feel protected. In this episode, I explore what it means to reconnect with that little girl, honor her wounds, and finally give her the love, safety, and softness she deserved all along.We'll talk about:✨ Who the “inner daughter” is and how she still shows up in adulthood✨ The childhood wounds that shape trust, relationships, and identity✨ How to begin reparenting yourself through kindness, protection, and emotional safety✨ Healing your inner daughter while mothering your own children✨ Rewriting the story for your lineage through conscious, gentle parentingYour inner daughter doesn't need perfection she needs presence, patience, and love.And the moment you choose to reparent her, everything starts to shift.

Marking the 400th episode of Marriage Therapy Radio, Zach takes the mic solo to reflect on eight years of podcasting, lessons from working with couples, and what it really means to be a grownup in your relationship. He shares behind-the-scenes insights from the recent three-part series with the husband and the wife (Ira and Andrea), explaining how their courage and vulnerability helped listeners see that change starts with small, consistent choices. Using their story as a lens, Zach revisits his two-part framework for relationship success: Be a grownup – Show up as your wise, mature self who can manage disappointment, own mistakes, and stay grounded. Do more of what your partner likes (and less of what they don't). From there, Zach explores the miracle question, a therapeutic exercise that helps couples (and families) imagine what success looks like before it happens, and offers practical advice for navigating Thanksgiving, holidays, and the everyday moments that define marriage. He also reflects on his own reparenting journey through five years of sobriety, the lessons of risk-taking (inspired by watching football and realizing you don't always have to “punt”), and the idea that “nothing changes if nothing changes.” This heartfelt solo episode blends gratitude, humor, and practical wisdom—a reminder that progress in love and life doesn't require perfection, just a willingness to keep making your relationship a little better today than it was yesterday. Key Takeaways The two secrets to healthy relationships: Be a grownup. Do more of what your partner likes and less of what they don't. The “miracle question” – Ask what it would look like if the next season (or even this weekend) went exactly right; use that as your roadmap. Nothing changes if nothing changes – Progress requires choosing differently, again and again. Be intentional with holidays – Set expectations, manage alcohol and boundaries, and choose gratitude. Reparenting is ongoing work – Healing old patterns is part of growing up emotionally and relationally. Change your relationship with risk – Sometimes you don't need to punt; you can go for it. Better is the goal – Therapy, marriage, and life don't have to be “all better.” Just better than before. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Dr. Becky Kennedy joins Forrest for a conversation about building better relationships, with ourselves, our partners, and our children. They talk about Dr. Becky's framework of “good inside,” and how we can apply it to ourselves. Dr. Becky explains how many of the struggles parents face trace back to their own childhood experiences, and suggests how we can reparent ourselves by learning emotional regulation, working with shame, and becoming sturdier. They also cover the limits of behavioral control models, deeply feeling kids, maintaining boundaries when things get hard, and building connection capital.

Building a Relationship with Self: Lessons from the AndesWhat does it actually look like to trust your intuition when everything in you wants to play it safe?In this vulnerable solo episode from Peru, I share the real, messy process of deepening the relationship with myself after selling everything and moving to South America.

Today's episode title is a mouthful and for good reason. As first-gen Latinas, we're parenting and reparenting every single day. We live in that in-between space: raised one way by our parents, yet raising our own kids in a completely different world. There's healing here. There's unlearning. There's love, and yes, sometimes tears. We open our hearts in this conversation, asking questions like: What does it mean to say “I'm sorry” while still waiting to hear it from our parents? This one's raw, real, and deeply relatable. We hope you'll tune in to feel seen, maybe shed a tear (we sure did), and share in the beautiful mess of growing, healing, and breaking cycles... together.

If you've ever felt frozen by imposter syndrome, stuck in insecurity, or overwhelmed by the critical voice in your head, this episode is for you. In this solo episode of The Healing & Human Potential Podcast, I'm sharing the exact 4 step process that has helped me and so many of my clients move from self-doubt into authentic confidence. Not the kind that depends on what others think, or on what you achieve, but the kind that's rooted in your truth. This isn't about faking it till you make it or reciting positive affirmations. It's about uncovering the confidence that's already within you, the kind that can't be taken away because it's who you truly are. When you tap into this authentic confidence, you'll stop chasing + start to magnetize the life you truly desire.  Together, we'll explore why most confidence advice actually backfires, how to release insecurity from your body, and how to re-parent the parts of you that are still waiting to be validated by others. By the end of this episode, you'll have a grounded, practical framework to start showing up as the most confident version of yourself — the one who speaks your truth, takes aligned action, and lives in full expression without fear of judgment. 0:00 – 2:20 What authentic confidence really is and how it transforms your life 2:20 – 4:30 The illusion of “conditional confidence” and why chasing validation keeps you stuck 4:30 – 6:15 How society teaches us to outsource our worth and what to do instead 6:15 – 7:45  The myth of “finding your voice” — you already have one; it just needs to be freed 7:45 – 9:10  Step 1: Becoming aware of your thoughts and questioning the stories behind your insecurity 9:10 – 10:50  My personal story: facing my own “I'm not ready” voice before a major opportunity 10:50 – 13:20  Why affirmations often fail and how to find real evidence of your worth 13:20 – 15:15 Step 2: “Secure the insecurity” — the somatic practice of feeling instead of fighting your emotions 15:15 – 16:50  A powerful story of how one client transformed her fear of rejection into freedom 16:50 – 18:30  Step 3: Reparenting the insecure parts of yourself through compassion and emotional attunement 18:30 – 19:20  How to stop seeking validation from others and become internally resourced 19:20 – 20:10  Step 4: The “Success Journal” — how to retrain your brain to notice your own power and progress 20:10 – 21:20 Applying the four steps to your daily life so confidence becomes your natural state   === Have you watched our episode on healing your relationship with money to attract abundance?

Send Gemma a messageWhat limerence really is, why it hooks into our deepest unmet needs and how to gently unhook using a schema-therapy lens.In Part 2, Gemma explores limerence as a preoccupying, often intoxicating state that's fueled by unmet needs - with abandonment and emotional deprivation schemas usually at the core. She explains why the brain's reward systems (hello, dopamine) and a quieted prefrontal cortex can hijack rationality, making red flags easy to miss. You'll learn practical, compassionate ways to reduce rumination, interrupt mental loops and begin reparenting the vulnerable parts that long for consistent care. Gemma also speaks to when limerence turns into a relationship (and why those tend to be high “schema chemistry”) and offers realistic hope for moving toward grounded, secure love.Key takeawaysLimerence = unmet needs + brain rewards. It's human, common, and often temporary; shame isn't helpful.Schemas under the hood: Abandonment (primary) and emotional deprivation are frequent drivers; attachment style can be a clue, but schemas give the nuance.“Schema chemistry” alert: Relationships born from intense limerence often trigger old wounds on both sides.Stop feeding the loop: Reduce cues (no social stalking, no photo scrolling). Notice → name → turn your mind.Circuit breakers that help: Mindfulness, imagery/rumination interruption, exercise, novelty/learning, supportive people, flow-state activities.Reparenting matters: Daily, gentle practices to meet needs consistently will dilute schemas over time.When to get help: If limerence becomes distressing, incapacitating or escalates into harmful behaviours, seek professional support.Practical steps you can tryName it: “This is the limerence loop.”Reduce reinforcement: Unfollow/mute; remove reminders.Shift attention: Choose a grounding task (walk, call a friend, learn something new).Reparenting micro-rituals: Daily check-ins with your vulnerable part; write a brief caring letter to yourself.Track triggers: Note what sparks rumination and plan alternatives.Therapeutic support: Look for schema-informed, experiential work.Mentioned in this episodeCoaching spaces now open with Gemma (limited).Love Wisely group coaching: next intake planned for late Feb '26 (waitlist in links).Reviews really help.

I was recently a guest on The Mindful Journey with Sana, where we explored the power of inner child healing and what it really means to reparent ourselves with compassion. In our conversation, I shared my own story of growing up in a toxic home and how those early experiences shaped my path as a healer and mentor.We talked about how unresolved childhood stress often resurfaces in adulthood—through relationships, work, and even our inner dialogue—and why forgiveness, compassion, and safe community are essential in breaking free from those patterns. I also offered practical tools for reparenting the inner child: gentleness breaks, self-kindness practices, and ongoing conversations with the parts of us that still long for care.This episode is a reminder that healing isn't about erasing the past—it's about becoming the loving, nurturing parent we always needed, and learning to carry that presence into our daily lives.Support the showStay Connected with Vandana Light Healing :✨ Website: vandanalighthealing.com YouTube: @VandanaLightHealing Facebook: VandanaLightHealing Podcast: Hope & Healing LinkedIn: Vandana Atara Noorah Instagram: @vandana_light_healing Amazon Author: Vandana Atara Noorah

Send us a textWe unpack the hidden role of the confident child who becomes an emotional dumping ground for a vulnerable narcissist parent, and offer a path to healing through boundaries and self-compassion. • Vulnerable narcissists often choose one child as their emotional confidant, creating a damaging pattern of parentification• Unlike traditional parentification (cooking, cleaning), this role involves deeper emotional exploitation as the child becomes the parent's emotional regulator• Children in this role develop identity fusion, believing their worth is tied to how well they can soothe others' emotions• The "leaky boat" metaphor illustrates how the child is tasked with keeping the parent afloat while never learning to build their own boat• Healing involves building inner safety, identifying inherited core beliefs, developing sovereign boundaries, and ending self-abandonment• Six steps to navigate relationships with vulnerable narcissists include seeing the wound behind the behavior, releasing hope for accountability, and practicing guilt-free boundaries• Reparenting your inner child is essential, speaking daily affirmations like "you are safe now" and "I will never abandon you again"Listen to our three guided meditations: "Reclaiming Your Voice," "From Survival to Sovereignty," and "Guided Reflection: Putting Down the Bucket" to support your healing journey.Support the showInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/angelamyerun/ Website: https://www.undetectednarcissist.com Blog posts: https://undetectednarcissist.com/blog/

Every parent knows that harsh inner voice that whispers "You're a terrible parent" when you lose your patience, or "You've ruined your kids forever" after a difficult moment. This episode reveals a simple "magic trick" that can instantly create space between you and those critical thoughts - and it's something anyone can learn. Discover how one powerful phrase can transform your reactions from triggered explosions to curious responses. You'll learn where your inner critic actually comes from (hint: it's often an echo from your own childhood), and how reparenting yourself can break generational cycles of trauma. This episode recaps the following episodes, giving you a lot of the benefit of 3 hours of content, in just 21 minutes:SYPM 017: Reparenting ourselves to create empathy in the world with Amy178: How to heal your inner critic193: You don't have to believe everything you thinkQuestions This Episode Will AnswerWhat is the inner critic and how does it affect parenting?The inner critic is that harsh, judgmental voice that tells you you're failing as a parent. It often stems from childhood trauma and can trigger explosive reactions to normal child behavior. Where does the inner critic come from?Your inner critic is usually an internalized version of critical voices from your childhood - parents, teachers, or caregivers who couldn't handle your authentic self or big emotions. How do you identify your inner critic?Watch for thoughts using absolute language ("always," "never," "terrible"), character judgments ("I'm a bad parent"), catastrophic conclusions, and voices that sound like critical figures from your past. What does reparenting yourself mean?Reparenting yourself means giving yourself the patience, understanding, and compassion you didn't receive as a child - becoming the caring parent to yourself that you needed growing up. How do you reparent yourself as a parent?Start by questioning your thoughts instead of believing them automatically. When you notice self-critical thoughts, respond to yourself with the same gentleness you'd offer a dear friend or your own child. How can you break the generational cycle of trauma?Use tools like the ‘magic trick' from this episode to create space between your triggered reactions and conscious responses, allowing you to respond from your values instead of reacting from old wounds. What are common inner critic examples parents experience?"Everyone thinks I'm a bad parent", "I'm raising a disrespectful child", "I've damaged my child forever", "Other parents are better than me", and "I'm just repeating my parents' mistakes". How does childhood trauma affect parenting?Unresolved childhood trauma can make you react disproportionately to normal child behavior, shut down emotionally when children express big emotions, or swing between being too permissive and too strict.

Send us a textWhat if the patterns keeping you stuck aren't even yours to begin with? From our earliest moments, our minds absorb everything around us like wet cement—every word, every glance, every reaction forming the foundation of how we see ourselves and the world.The most profound revelation in understanding our patterns is recognizing that many weren't chosen but inherited. Your parents passed down what they knew, having received the same from their parents, creating an unbroken chain stretching back generations. Nobody consciously hands down their wounds, yet we find ourselves living out scripts written long before we could write our names. These invisible patterns show up everywhere—in relationships that keep ending the same way, in money behaviors that sabotage stability, in the masks we wear believing they're our true identity.Breaking free begins with awareness. That relationship dynamic that feels so familiar? It's mirroring what you learned about love as a child. That self-sabotage that keeps happening? It's an old protection strategy that's outlived its usefulness. The transformation happens when you turn toward what you've been avoiding—your shadows, your inner child, your authentic self beneath the programming. Through reparenting, you can give yourself what you always needed but never received. And the miracle is that when you heal yourself, you don't just change your life—you break patterns that might otherwise continue for generations.Ready to pick up the pen and rewrite your story?

She'd love to hear from you and share your comment or question on air!Leave Karena a voicemail: https://www.speakpipe.com/KarenaDawnWhat if the breakdown you feared was actually the doorway to your greatest sense of peace?In this transformative episode of The Big Silence, Karena sits down with #1 New York Times bestselling author, spiritual teacher, and Dear Gabby podcast host Gabby Bernstein. From uncovering repressed childhood trauma in her mid-30s to navigating postpartum depression with courage and honesty, Gabby shares the tools that helped her move from chaos to calm. She opens up about EMDR therapy, medication without shame, reparenting the inner child, and finding relief one step at a time. Whether you're in the depths of anxiety, grieving a loss, or simply craving a gentler way to heal, Gabby's wisdom offers both compassion and practical next steps.How do you combine spiritual tools and evidence-based therapy to heal trauma without shame, guilt, or overwhelm?Healing isn't about being “fixed.” It's about creating safety, awareness, and compassion so you can finally live in peace.(02:06) Naming the Why Behind PatternsSpirituality and sobriety can plant seeds, but trauma will still surface in anxiety, addiction, or control.Memory of trauma can return much later in life; healing doesn't require forcing recall.Recognizing “what happened to me” instead of “what's wrong with me” reframes the path forward.(05:09) EMDR, DemystifiedBilateral stimulation (eye movement, tapping, sounds) opens a safe “window of tolerance.”Starting with a present trigger often links back to earlier wounds.Small issues may shift quickly; deeper trauma requires more time but reduces triggers steadily.(09:02) Postpartum Depression: When Meditation Isn't EnoughSigns include panic attacks, insomnia, and suicidal thoughts. This is biochemical, not a personal failing.Antidepressants can create a baseline of safety so therapy becomes effective.Meds are not a shortcut but a foundation; Gabby paired them with three therapy sessions a week.(14:37) Grief Without GuiltApproach grief in doses: feel some, then step back before re-engaging.Notice when numbing shows up; honor it as a protective strategy.Relief through TV, rest, or joy is part of healthy grieving, not a failure.(18:51) Getting Unstuck: The 3-Question InventoryAfter each trigger, ask: 1) What triggered me? 2) What do I feel? 3) How do I run from it?Recognize patterns as protective, not personality flaws.Writing it down builds compassion and creates room for change.(20:30) Reparenting Yourself with the 4 S'sSafe: Breathwork, sleep, and grounding to calm your nervous system.Seen: Validate your wins and speak to yourself with compassion.Soothed: Make therapy and support part of your routine.Secure: Consistency builds an inner foundation of trust and resilience.(24:54) Psychedelic-Assisted Therapy: Proceed with CareShould only be done with trained clinicians under clinical guidelines.Medication conflicts exist; research protocols carefully.Curiosity is valid, but sobriety and safety must guide decisions.(28:57) Resources & Next...

Trauma-informed life strategist Elyssa Smith joins me to unpack procrastination, self-sabotage, reparenting, and the art of saying no, topics that shape how we show up every single day. Together we explore how these patterns are rooted in our nervous system from a young age, why they're often survival strategies in disguise, and how compassion is the foundation for lasting change. As this conversation highlights, “There is another way of being, and I am going to be curious about it.” Elyssa's stories and strategies will give you permission to start small, with what I call “turtle steps”, and remind you that self-compassion is always the key. I hope you enjoy this conversation as much as I did!  What you'll hear in this episode: Procrastination: why it's more than just a “bad habit” and how it often stems from trauma (4:26) Reparenting: practical and surprisingly simple ways we can support our own emotional healing (15:46) Self-sabotage: how it shows up, the role shame plays, and the importance of gratitude and self-compassion when facing it (29:59) Saying no: why choosing yourself is part of the healing process and how to start saying no without drowning in guilt (43:47) Resources from this episode: Elyssa's Facebook Group: Stress Less Lounge Elyssa's website ElyssaCSmith on Instagram Existential Kink, Carolyn Elliot PhD (book) ✨Interested in a future Rythmia Ayahuasca retreat with me?

What if your workouts and nutrition aren't failing because of discipline but because of your inner child? In this episode, we dive into the deep connection between exercise, nutrition, trauma healing, and reparenting your inner child.

In this enlightening episode of The Art of Raising Humans, hosts Kyle and Sara Wester explore the transformative journey of reparenting with special guest Shelly Robinson — conscious parenting coach and founder of Raising Yourself. Shelly shares powerful stories and personal reflections from her own healing journey, offering insight into what it means to reparent your inner child while showing up fully for your kids. Together, they discuss how self-awareness, humility, and compassion form the foundation of intentional parenting. Whether you're working to break generational cycles or simply seeking to grow as a parent and person, this heartfelt conversation will inspire and equip you. 

Most men have no idea they're still trying to father a wounded boy inside themselves. In this episode, Dr. Bob Beare, PhD — licensed therapist, recovery leader, and founder of Deep Waters Recovery — returns to unpack what reparenting really means, and why so many high-performing men avoid the one thing that could finally bring peace. This isn't theory. It's raw truth. Bob walks us through the core practices that help men connect with the younger parts of themselves — the inner child who still carries unmet needs, suppressed grief, and the shame we were told to bury long ago. And he explains why ignoring this relationship keeps us stuck in cycles of reactivity, overwork, and emotional shutdown. We explore: What it actually means to reparent yourself — and how to start Why most men resist healing (even when they say they want it) How inner child work unlocks real emotional freedom — not just insight How unhealed men unconsciously raise kids to fix their own wounds Why grief and joy live in the same place — and how to access both How to stop creating chaos just to feel something What happens when we stop fighting and finally let peace in If you've ever wondered why you “know better” but still overreact… Or why you keep striving even though you've already achieved so much… This episode will give you language, tools, and a path forward. Because the best thing you can do for your kids… Is heal the kid still living inside you. ___________________________
