Forrest is joined by therapist Kimberley Quinlan to explore one of the most misunderstood anxiety disorders: obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). Drawing from her clinical and personal experience, Kimberley breaks down what OCD is, how it differs from general anxiety, and the ways it's often mischaracterized. They discuss the core features of obsessions and compulsions, and how these can manifest across a wide range of themes, including harm, contamination, morality, and relationships. Kimberley explains how Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) works, what makes an exposure “good,” and how to build tolerance for distress rather than trying to eliminate it. They also touch on self-compassion, the role of medication, and the stigmas that can keep people from getting help.

The world of cafe management is full of great ideas that, if applied well, would indeed change things for the better. The idea around leader ship role being primarily about "setting people up for success" is one of those principles. The trouble is it often stops with just the idea and is not as often applied in a tangible way. Today we are going to explore what it really means to set your staff up for success in the daily operations of the café in a way that is helpful for the business, customer service, and the barista themselves.  Related Episodes:  437 : The New Age of the Barista: Mindsets + Habits for Success 244 : Top 10 Ways to Lose Employees 248 : The 5 Elements of Resourcing your Team INTERESTED IN 1:1 CONSULTING AND COACHING?

Once you hire the right people for your cafe you move on to the next decision, how to work with them to give them to set them and the business up for success. Too often the way we place and lead people is based on their job description and not so much based on their individual characteristics. How much better would your shop run if your team was given the opportunity to work in areas where they were strong and their weaknesses were not our dominant pre-occupation? Today we are goin to dive into this subject with a re-airing of a classic episode for 2019 all about working through strengths with my friend, Lisa Cummings!  Lisa Cummings is the founder of Lead Through Strengths, a firm dedicated to helping people use their strengths at work. Lisa and her team serve large teams and organizations to help them leverage the results of the CliftonStrengths (formerly StrengthsFinder) assessment. She is also the host of the popular Lead Through Strengths podcast. In this episode we are going to talk about the ways in which we can focus on and utilize our own strengths and facilitate the same opportunity for those we lead in the coffee shop.   Related episodes:  248 : The 5 Elements of Resourcing your Team 472: Why Technical Skill as a Leader is Not Enough w/ Jonathan Raymond, Refound, Author: Good Authority 415: The Best Lessons On How to Listen w/ Listening Expert, Oscar Trimboli

A healthier mind doesn't start with healthier thoughts. It happens through nourishing your body – your body builds your thoughts. Learn how to use micro-resourcing to change your thoughts. The last thing you want to hear when you're struggling mentally is to “do more” or “try harder.” At least, that's how I used to feel. When your mind is already gasping for air, being told to add more to your plate can feel like the final blow. Yet at the same time, you want to feel better, creating a frustrating paradox—too overwhelmed to take action but desperate for relief. I know that space well. I lived in it. And the shift didn't happen when I mustered up enough energy to push through one more strategy. It happened when I started to understand why my mind was struggling in the first place. The Mind-Body Connection Over the years, I spent time in therapy, determined to feel better. I did the work, but the relief I expected never fully came. It confused me because I didn't have major trauma (what many call “big T” trauma). Instead, I had accumulated “small t” traumas—yet I still couldn't get my mind to function the way I wanted. I was floundering, searching for answers. That's when I started studying the connection between the body and mind—their deep, energetic interplay. And what I learned changed everything, including my belief that you can “think yourself healthy.” For years, I clung to the idea that mindset alone could fix everything. If I couldn't heal, I figured it was because I was broken. But the truth is, changing your mind is only possible when your body has the resources and capacity to support that change. Your mind and body aren't separate; they function in a loop. If your body is depleted, your mind struggles. If your mind is stressed, your body suffers. It's not a chicken-or-egg situation—it's personal to each of us. Understanding this connection is the key to shifting your mental state. In my latest podcast episode, I explore this in depth, including what the Minnesota Starvation Experiment revealed about how nutrient depletion affects mental health. It's a must-listen.   Listen to today's episode to learn more: https://thelivingwell.com/356.   Be sure to take my Free Energy quiz.  Take things to the next level: Get health advice that works delivered straight to your inbox.

In this episode of the Flowering Daydream Podcast, we welcome the energy of spring by exploring the powerful Goddesses that guide this season of renewal. I share brief stories and spiritual wisdom of four spring goddesses—Ostara, Persephone, Flora, and Braint—each offering their own sacred medicine for renewal, awakening, and feminine sovereignty. I also close the episode with a collective oracle reading from the Goddess Within Oracle Deck, offering divine guidance for this season of blossoming. Tune in to awaken your inner goddess, align with the rhythm of spring, and bloom in your own sacred timing.

 Besides hiring the right person for the role in your coffee shop, onboarding and training is the most important thing to get right so those you bring on and the customers who trust you brand, are set up for success. It is therefore little wonder why, when training and on-barding are skimped on, the hospitality, quality, and then sales go down as customers lose trust. Today we are going to be discussing how to approach the development and execution of onboarding and training in a way that creates the best chance for success. I would emphasis that this episode is one among many listed below that I feel need to be listened to in order to bring about an understanding of what tips, steps, and insight make sense to apply to your cafe. When it comes to operations and building these kinds of programs and systems, the engagement of leadership in curating them to serve their people is a never ending task. It helps to embrace the "always" nature of this part of running a cafe just as much as a barista will always be expected and hopefully take joy in, making and serving drinks.     Related Episodes:  339 : What Good Barista Training Produces 235 : 4 Tips for Training your Staff 191 : Retraining your Staff on new Standards 424: Developing Menu and Hospitality Guides 330 : Establishing Systems in Your Coffee Shop 248 : The 5 Elements of Resourcing your Team 296: Holistic Barista Training w/ David Castillo of Go Get Em Tiger , Los Angeles 271 : Why the Cash Register Controls Everything   THERE IS STILL TIME!!!   ATTENTION CAFE OWNERS w/ 2+ Years of running your brick and mortar.... - LOOKING FOR A COMMUNITY OF SUPPORT, ACCOUNTABILITY, INSIGHT, AND ENCOURAGEMENT?  - The Key Holder Coaching Group master-mind are now taking new applicants for our 4th cohort launching in march!    Click below to fill out your application now!

Today's episode is so epic. Do you remember growing up wanting to be the best at something?    Then actually becoming the best at that thing and then being surrounded by people you absolutely loved because they were both the BEST and LOVED that thing the same way you did?   I know we just all have at least one story like that.    Today you are witnessing one of mine.  In today's episode, I had the absolute honor of chatting with Mar Talanquer, a superstar coach in Latin America. She literally writes a column for Mexican Glamour. Yes, the magazine.  Mar is a visionary coach and pioneer in somatic and nervous system work, and her mission is nothing short of extraordinary: to help women break free from societal “spells” that hold us back and embrace the full, unapologetic power of who we are. Mar shared her revolutionary concept of the eight “spells” that patriarchal culture casts over women, from the pressure to always be the best to the burden of never showing vulnerability.  She introduces antidotes for these spells—ways to transform our disempowering strategies into authentic, empowering actions that align with our true selves. Here's a sneak peek of 3 the archetypes we explored in our conversation so you get a feel for the depth and nuance we are having on the show today - (feel my considerable excitement!!) The Chingona: The high-achieving, outwardly perfect woman who carries the weight of endless expectations but feels perpetually “not enough.” Mar revealed how to step into the empowering identity of the Expander—someone who inspires others not by perfection, but by showing what's possible. The Overwhelmed One: The multi-tasker extraordinaire, juggling countless ideas and responsibilities, often at the expense of her peace of mind. Mar invites this archetype to become the Multi-Creative Adventurer, embracing her creativity while simplifying and focusing on what truly matters. The Responsible One: The steady, reliable problem-solver who is there for everyone—but struggles to ask for help. Mar's antidote? A reframe as the Community Creator, a grounded leader who thrives when she allows herself to be supported, too. Mar's wisdom is powerful for anyone feeling stuck in cycles of perfectionism, overwhelm, or self-doubt. Her stories and insights will have you nodding in recognition and, most importantly, seeing a path forward to living unapologetically. Yes we talked about these deep themes AND we had so much doing it! I can't wait to hear your takeaways from this one.  Listen to our chat to hear more about: How to start to live as your unapologetic, empowered self Why achieving more doesn't always feel fulfilling—and what you can do about it The first step to breaking free from the patriarchy The surprising antidote to overwhelm (it isn't doing less!) Why showing vulnerability in your relationships is a superpower, not a weakness   RESOURCES MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE: Episode 132: How To Use the Questions For Couples Journal to Get Closer to Your Honey with Sarah Kennedy Episode 53: Processing Negative Emotions Episode 129: Understanding Your Stress Cycles with Maria Victoria Albina Episode 76: Trauma, Resourcing, and Windows of Tolerance with Shelby Leigh Episode 96: Thought Work and The Self Coaching Model Connect with Mar on Instagram Visit Mar's website The Questions for Couples Journal The Marriage Mindset Makeover

In this episode, we dive into the concept of pendulation, a foundational process in trauma healing, particularly within Somatic Experiencing. We explore how pendulation involves oscillating between states of distress (activation) and calm (regulation), allowing the nervous system to release stored tension without getting stuck.We also discuss two essential techniques that support pendulation:Resourcing: Developing internal or external anchors that evoke safety and calm, serving as a foundation for navigating trauma.Titration: Processing trauma in small, manageable doses to prevent overwhelm and build resilience.Pendulation, the movement between activation and deactivation, teaches the nervous system to flow between stress and calm, helping to reduce hypersensitivity to triggers. It's a practice that rewires the brain and body for greater resilience.Key Takeaways:Retelling trauma without these techniques can be retraumatizing.Reflect on your existing resources that bring comfort and safety.Pendulation allows for processing emotions without getting stuck.For more personalized support, explore our 1:1 coaching program or look for somatic or trauma-trained practitioners familiar with these techniques.Looking for more personalized support?Book a FREE consultation for RESTORE, our 1:1 anxiety & depression coaching program.Join me inside RISE, a mental health membership and nervous system healing space.Order my book, Healing Through the Vagus Nerve today!Want me to talk about something specific on the podcast?

She came back from the ick..Have you ever been really turned off by someone that normally (or always) you've been really excited and into? Well I'm going to tell you a little story about how developing "the ick" for someone can actually be a great way to scan your own energy for shadows lurking in the basement.In your life you are going to walk a wide labyrinth of spiritual teachings as a whole. But the ones that are most helpful? They are the human lessons right in front of you. The people in your life are your greatest initiations. When someone brings up a lot of energy in your system, whether perceived good or bad- there is a contract there. You two have some karmic lesson to hash out. And more often than not, they are one of your most benevolent guides working it out with you. So how do you focus your creations and visions with others- when they are triggering you, initiating you, and teaching you?Good questions to ask yourself- are they feeding the village? Creating medicine for the entire community? Resourcing clean food, water, and spiritual energy into other people's homes? These people are part of your vision. These people have a path and purpose for you. Let them lead you into your learning. Even if, especially if, they are revealing all your shadows to you..This episode is a great deep dive for anyone who wants to talk about why you're called to either steward your own spiritual eco friendly business and/or be a part of the creations that other people are creating for the community.

If there's something in your life that you want and don't currently have, this episode is for you. I am excited to share some ideas about how to think about goals differently.   Recently, I started working towards a goal of my own that's felt pretty elusive, honestly.    During this process, I noticed I had the thought, “This is just as likely as going to Mars.” Which made me feel really defeated.   To feel like one of our goals is impossible just leaves us feeling like there's nowhere left to go.   But the next morning, I woke up and thought,    “Okay. If NASA was going to Mars, how would they do it? What would their actual step-by-step process be to getting to Mars?”    And of course I came up with a few ideas, like desire, budget, plan. And that led me to wondering what that would look like for me and my goal, if I distilled this big process down to the main things I would need to do…   And that's what I want to share with you today.    So think about something YOU want, that's yours and yours alone (meaning, something you have control over to a certain degree) and let's get ready to apply these four principles to what you want to accomplish.   Listen and learn more about: How to be very clear about what you want The power of committing more to the process than the outcome Dispelling the idea that you have to accomplish your goals alone Why you should also think about what's in the way of your goals   RESOURCES MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE: Episode 96: Thought Work and The Self Coaching Model Episode 62: Curiosity, Coaching, and Using Your Superpowers In Your Marriage with Lindsay Dotzlaf Episode 39: Soul Centered Communication Episode 76: Trauma, Resourcing, and Windows of Tolerance with Shelby Leigh The Questions for Couples Journal Private Coaching with Maggie Reyes The Marriage Mindset Makeover  

Resourcing, though often overlooked, is a vital part of your healing journey in EMDR therapy. It provides you with emotional tools and coping strategies that help you feel grounded and secure as you begin to process and heal trauma. By developing positive internal "resources"—like calming visualizations, empowering memories, or sensations of safety—you can tap into your own inner strength when emotions feel overwhelming. These resources serve as anchors, helping you stay centered and in control. Whether you're in therapy or facing life's daily challenges, resourcing empowers you to reconnect with yourself, regulate your emotions, and take meaningful steps toward healing.In this episode, we continue our discussion of EMDR with a special focus on resourcing, what it is, and how it can support those undergoing EMDR therapy or who want to regulate their emotions and respond to life challenges with a returning guest, Jen Baumgold. Jen is a licensed clinical social worker and psychotherapist who specializes in trauma treatment. She is certified in EMDR and works with clients to help untangle the knots of trauma while finding a path toward healing and resilience. After graduating with her master's in social work, Jen began her career at the New York Fire Department counseling service unit, where she worked until 2016. During her time there, she provided crucial mental health support to FDYN members and their families. Tune in!What You Will Learn:[00:01] Intro and a bit about our guest today, Jen Baumgold[05:47] What psychotherapy is and why people seek it [07:16] What EMDR is and how it works in healing trauma[09:53] How an EMDR session looks like and what to expect[10:55] Resourcing: What it's and why it's an important component in EMDR therapy[14:48] How resourcing prepares you for the deeper work involved in EMDR[19:21] Examples of resourcing techniques and how they can benefit you[23:40] The role and place of spirituality in EMDR therapy[26:40] How resourcing can help you reconnect with yourself on a deeper level[31:24] Resourcing techniques to improve self-awareness and emotional regulation [35:34] How resourcing can be beneficial in everyday life challenges[37:23] Wrap up and end of the showStandout Quotes:“Trauma is stored in our memory and information processing system different than other memories and experiences, but we all have a unique capability to heal.” [07:32]“Resourcing allows you to know that you have internal resources that you can draw on to get you out of traumatic memories and close it up.” [12:53]“When you have been through significant trauma, it's harder to find and draw on positive experiences on your memory and nervous system, but resourcing seeks to find, draw out and strengthen them.” [14:18]“There is strength and power that come from remembering moments of triumph and doing something effectively.” [34:24]“We all have these negative cognition beliefs, and when we're struggling, they predominate our thoughts, but going to places where your body feels at ease, successful, and connected can override negative cognition.” [34:59]Let's ConnectJennifer BaumgoldWebsite: https://www.lotuspsychotherapyfc.com/jennifer-baumgold-lcswLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jennifer-baumgold-b6ba8077Chandler StroudWebsite: https://healingheroespodcast.com/Mixing, editing and show notes provided by Next Day Podcast.

ACESS VIDEO VERSION BELOW, PURE AUDIO ABOVE Welcome to Season 11 of the Thoth-Hermes Podcast.  On this first episode, Rudolf meets with guest Karin Valis to expand the growing conversation around Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Occultism.  Karin is Slovakian, a Machine Learning Engineer and former teenage atheist “GO” game fanatic turned occultist  This is to say that Karin is both a brilliant analytical mind and committed spiritual explorer.  Karin is a blogger, conference speaker, musician,  magazine editor and AI-integrated tarot deck creator.  Most recently, she has been engaged in creating a philosophical learning platform designed to counterbalance the funneling manipulation effect of Social Media on societal viewpoint dialogue.  A core question in the conversation today centers on how AI development can offer us insight into our very human development of occultism.  Distinguishing the windows of learning available to us, Karin describes the mapping of semantic space in the meaning-making processes of AI model development.  Karin highlights the parallels between Sacred Alphabet and Sacred Language concepts.  Karin comments on theories of AI as a “super positioned simulacrum” of language model AI functioning as a multiverse generator.   Karin and Rudolf, as both musicians and polyglots, describe the variance of spoken and written human language, embodied and disembodied: and the challenges that this presents to AI as a human tool.    0 – The Fool 10 The Wheel of Fortune 21 – The World 17 – The Star Tarot of The Latent Spaceshttps://mercurialminutes.substack.com/p/tarot-of-the-latent-spaces-by-hermetechnics Far from idealizing AI technology, several times Karin acknowledges the problems of AI: human workforce impact, and the “soulless” nature of AI prose.  Her emphasis is AI as a tool to greater human creativity, as opposed to a replacement.  Resourcing the knowledge of AI development as an opportunity- not replacement- for occult epistemology is an on-going theme in the episode.  Along the way, we hear about Karin's experiences creating a recent tarot deck, a shocking synchronicity encountered during AI-enhanced editing of a shamanic ritual recording, and her recent exploration of AI in the context of Vanessa Sinclair and Carl Abrahamsson's Cut-Up classes. Karin shares regarding her magazine, Gnostic Technology and her involvement with the European Foundation for Shamanic Studies. We hear about her expriences with technological, academic and occult conference audiences.  Karin shares her intent to “soften the gaze” of the “tech bros” -which in response to Rudolf's question- she describes as “complicated” in reception.
