There's an art to wound care that nobody really talks about. It's not just gauze, tape, and timed changes—it's patience, presence, and keeping your cool when things look a little… chaotic.The Zen of Dressing Changes is all about finding calm in the mess. Slowing down your breathing. Honoring the routine. Respecting the healing process even when it's not pretty. Because every change is a moment to reset, refocus, and remind yourself: healing takes time, and so do you.Whether you're a caregiver, clinician, or just tending to your own journey, tap into that stillness. Turn the chaos into clarity. Find your rhythm in the ritual.

You can't negotiate the necessary. GOD don't cut deals on Discipline, and HE ain't lowering the price of elevation because you tired. If you want Wealth, Freedom, and Ownership, you gotta pay full cost—sacrifice, consistency, and execution on Days when nobody's clapping. This business game is spiritual first: your mindset is the altar, your habits are the offering, and your results are the testimony. Generational wealth ain't something you hope for,... it's something you become worthy of. When you accept that the Necessary is Non-Negotiable, you stop running from the process and start Respecting the Path. Every seed you plant in obedience becomes a harvest your family will inherit. This is covenant work. This is legacy work. And once you embrace the grind GOD aligned for you, you walk like someone who knows their abundance was already written. You Can't Negotiate The Necessary | Wallstreet Trapper (Episode 169) Trappin Tuesdays

Understanding the Modern Customer Experience: A Guide for Aspiring Professionals 1.0 Introduction: The Great Customer Experience Divide In today's competitive market, the customer experience isn't just a part of the brand; it is the brand. Every interaction, from a first glance at a social media post to a final click on a purchase button, serves as a referendum on a company's value and trustworthiness. Get it right, and you build loyalty. Get it wrong, and customers will walk away without a second thought. 1.1 The Loyalty Illusion A significant conflict is brewing between how businesses perceive customer loyalty and how customers actually feel. This "loyalty illusion" creates a dangerous blind spot for executives who believe they are succeeding while their customer base is quietly eroding. Executive Belief Consumer Reality ~90% of executives believe customer loyalty has grown in recent years. Only 40% of consumers feel they have become more loyal to brands. This perception gap isn't just a difference of opinion; it's a direct threat to revenue. "About nine out of 10 [executives] say customer loyalty has grown in recent years, but only four in 10 consumers say the same." The business risks of this blind spot are clear: 52% of consumers have stopped buying from a brand due to a bad product or service experience, and 29% have abandoned a brand due to poor customer experience. To close this gap, companies must first understand the entire modern customer journey, which starts long before a customer ever visits a website or store. 2.0 The Customer Journey: From First Glance to Final Click 2.1 Redefining the Starting Line Customer loyalty no longer begins at a company's digital or physical front door. It's now seeded much earlier in what can be called the "experience supply chain"—the connected sequence of interactions that moves a person from curious to committed. This journey often starts in the realm of indirect influence. Key "indirect influence" touchpoints include: A friend's recommendation A discussion thread on Reddit A product review on an independent site While price remains the single most significant factor for 69% of consumers when making a purchase decision, mastering these early stages of discovery and influence is critical for building the long-term commitment that defines true loyalty. 2.2 What Brands Can Do To win customers in this new landscape, brands must adopt a more holistic and proactive approach to the customer journey. Analyze the Journey: Use data analytics and AI to forensically examine every step of the customer life cycle. This allows you to identify and fix points of friction before they drive potential customers away. Embrace New "Front Doors": Treat online comment threads, product comparison sites, and even AI-generated search results as strategic entry points to your brand. These platforms are where modern discovery happens. Ensure Consistency: Align every touchpoint—from social media chatter to post-purchase support—with a cohesive brand narrative. This consistency builds the trust necessary for a customer to move from awareness to action. Understanding the full customer journey is the first step. The next is understanding what customers truly expect from a brand during that journey. 3.0 Beyond the Basics: What Customers Truly Value 3.1 Table Stakes vs. True Delight In the modern marketplace, fundamentals like fair pricing and product quality are no longer differentiators. They are simply "table stakes"—the minimum cost of entry to compete. The real opportunity for brands lies in their ability to layer personalized, meaningful value on top of these basics to create moments of true delight. Factor Considered a Minimum Expectation (%) Considered a Bonus (%) Good value for price 77% 19% Product/service quality 76% 20% Transparent business practices 58% 35% Personalized experiences 17% 62% However, many companies are struggling to keep up. A staggering 70% of executives feel that customer expectations are evolving faster than their company can adapt. This widening gap creates a significant risk of eroding customer trust and losing business to more agile competitors. 3.2 The Generational Lens Customer expectations are not one-size-fits-all; they vary significantly across generations. A strategy that delights one demographic may alienate another. Brands must segment their approach to meet these diverse needs. Boomers: This group is generally less likely to be influenced by a brand's social media presence or its sustainability efforts. Millennials and Gen Z: In contrast, these younger consumers pay close attention to a brand's values, online activities, and social impact. Successfully meeting these varied and rapidly evolving expectations increasingly involves technology, particularly Artificial Intelligence. 4.0 The AI Paradox: A Tool for Help and Hindrance 4.1 High Ambition, High Anxiety Artificial Intelligence represents the new frontier in customer engagement, but its rapid adoption has created a central paradox. While companies are rushing to implement AI-driven solutions, many customers remain wary. A majority of consumers (58%) report being "only somewhat or not at all comfortable" using AI tools to engage with brands. This suggests that AI implementation is often driven more by a company's internal ambition for efficiency than by genuine customer demand, creating a gap between what brands offer and what customers actually want. 4.2 Finding the Right Balance Consumer acceptance of AI is highly nuanced and depends heavily on the specific task. More Likely to Use AI for: Simple, transactional tasks like tracking an order or delivery status (49%). Less Likely to Use AI for: Sensitive interactions like making a payment (29%). Crucially, despite the rise of automation, 86% of consumers still say that human interaction is moderately or very important to their brand experience. The key insight for aspiring professionals is that successful brands don't choose between AI and human support; they integrate them. They use AI for efficiency where it adds value but provide clear, fast paths to human support when empathy, nuance, and judgment are required. This balance between technology and humanity extends to the data that fuels these systems, bringing the issue of privacy to the forefront. 5.0 The Data Dilemma: Balancing Personalization and Privacy 5.1 The Trust Trigger Personalization presents another paradox for modern brands: customers want it, right up until the moment they don't. The desire for a smooth, tailored experience often conflicts with concerns over data privacy, creating a delicate balancing act for companies. "More than half of consumers (53%) think that it's worth it to share personal information if it makes their experience interacting with a brand smoother. But mishandle that data and 93% say that a brand will lose their trust." This dynamic means that every personalization strategy carries a built-in "trust trigger." Respecting data boundaries is no longer just about legal compliance; it has become a powerful competitive advantage. 5.2 What Brands Can Do To navigate this dilemma, brands should adopt a set of core principles that build trust while delivering value. Focus on low-intrusion data: Prioritize using information like stated preferences and past purchases to tailor experiences. This provides value without crossing sensitive privacy lines. Be transparent: Clearly communicate what data is being collected and why. When customers see an immediate and tangible benefit in return, they are more likely to trust the exchange. Empower the customer: Give customers a sense of control over their data. When personalization feels like a choice, it becomes a driver of loyalty, not a red flag. By internalizing these lessons, companies can reshape their approach to building lasting customer relationships. 6.0 Actionable Principles for a Modern Customer Experience To succeed in today's landscape, aspiring professionals should focus on a set of core principles that connect the entire customer journey, from discovery to long-term loyalty. Treat discovery like a make-or-break moment. A customer's journey starts long before they visit your website. Design every early touchpoint as a seamless, story-driven experience. Rebuild loyalty based on behavior, not fantasy. Reassess loyalty programs based on real customer actions and measurable business goals, not assumptions. Segment smarter and personalize with purpose. Move beyond generic demographics to target customers by generation, behavior, and emotional triggers to deliver true relevance. Pair AI with empathy and know when to hand off. Use AI to streamline simple tasks, but ensure a quick and easy path to human support when nuance and empathy matter most. Win the moments that matter or lose customers. Identify the high-stakes moments in the customer journey where loyalty can be instantly won or lost, and design solutions to win them decisively. Turn privacy into a competitive advantage. Build trust by being transparent, providing clear value, and giving customers control over their personal data. Measure what actually moves the needle. Go beyond traditional metrics to track the behavioral, emotional, and financial impact of your customer experience initiatives. These seven principles are the foundational building blocks for anyone seeking to create the exceptional and effective customer experiences that define modern brands.   Source:  https://www.pwc.com/us/en/services/consulting/business-transformation/library/2025-customer-experience-survey.html  

TALK TO ME, TEXT ITEver hit record, pour your heart out, and realize nothing saved? That false start set the tone for a candid ride: a restorative week at Orange Beach, the joy of doing nothing but watching waves, and a shockingly great condo shower that doubled as a mini spa. From there, we pivot into a promise I'm making to myself—one full year to get strong and healthy before turning 60. No more snack runs that “don't count.” No more treat math. Just clear choices, better routines, and the energy that comes from keeping a promise to your future self.We also talk about connection in the real world. I finally met Laura IRL, and it felt like sitting with an old friend—proof that the best conversations don't need filters or algorithms. That contrast made the political circus feel even louder. I share why I'm weary of self-congratulatory sound bites and cheap shots, and why disagreement doesn't have to become cruelty. Holding leaders to a standard isn't disloyalty; it's the point.Then we wade into dating and parenting debates that set the internet on fire. A billionaire's “May I meet you” pickup line gets graded against honest, human openers that actually work. Spoiler: clear, kind, and specific beats canned charm every time. And yes, we tackle the diaper-consent controversy. Respecting kids matters; so do practical boundaries and timely care. Narration can teach without theater. We wrap it all with a lighter lift—crowning the greatest rock band—and I cast my vote for AC/DC with zero hesitation.If you're craving a nudge to reset your habits, laugh at the week's wild takes, and rethink how agency shows up in everyday life—from dates to diapers—this one's for you. Hit follow, share with a friend who needs a fresh start, and drop your pick for the greatest rock band of all time.

I believe that leading a spirit-respecting workplace is easier than managing a traditional organisation - it tends to take on a life of its own.However, at the same time, leading this kind of workplace is also harder, particularily for those of us that are compelled to control the uncontrollable. (smile).Most of us have clear ideas about what should happen and not happen in organisations and our reponsibilites as leaders within them. These become the rules by which we do our work and simplify the workplace. It simplifies the way we do businesss by keeping everything on a superficial level.When we choose to build a spirit-respecting and spirit-nurturing organisation, we give up the illusion of simplicity. We build an environment for  courageous leadership that encompasses everyone. WE make it safe to explore, to try newthings, to stretch our creativity. Time now to explore the principles.Additional InsightsSpirituality: The Next Frontier of Workplace Wellbeing | Susannah Healy.https://youtu.be/MosvBKul270Dream Dare Dazzle

Recorded October 16, 2024 - Wednesday Evening Service The Pastor went straight into preaching about what the Lord laid on his heart, about Respecting the Church & Keeping the Sanctuary Holy. This is a day and age where we have an expectation for God to show up in his house, and especially in the most Holy place in his house, the Sanctuary, but we bring the world in with us.  We bring our cell phones, drinks, candy, and every possible distraction the world has to offer, into God's HOLY SANCTUARY, and then when the service is over, we wonder, "Why didn't God show up today?"  God was there, you weren't. God commanded Moses to remove his shoes for he was stepping on Holy ground. The Sanctuary of a church is intended to be a Sanctuary FROM the World, not OF the world.  If any place in a building used for church is to be Holy, It is the Sanctuary, and we must treat it as such.

In this episode of the Dope Black Dads podcast, Marvyn breaks down what it really takes to support a good man in 2025, without shrinking yourself or cosplaying a “good little wife.” He covers: • The truth about “something happening with men” — and why it's about to go one of two ways• The viral Chanté Joseph article about women feeling ashamed to say “I have a boyfriend,” and what that reveals about how men are valued• Why humiliation content (fake throw-up pranks, mocking your man online) destroys respect and never builds the man you actually want• Misogyny vs misandry: why they're not mirror images and why that distinction matters here• How you speak to your man: nagging vs affirmation, and why rants don't land but clear, short statements do• The “tennis vs American football” mistake when men share feelings, and how to catch the emotional ball instead of smashing it back• What to do when he goes silent or withdrawn and you suspect more than “he's just fine”• How to investigate his mood without the dead-end question “You alright?”• Respecting his pace of change instead of treating him like a broken service provider you ordered from an app• Why not every mood change is cheating: money, parents, pressure, identity, and all the other stress signals you keep missing• Turning the home into neutral ground so he doesn't sit in the car dreading walking through the front door• The “driveway rule”: negotiating how much decompression time he needs and what you need once he comes in• Why there's no serious “transition programme” for men moving from work-only identity into work + family, unlike the decades of systems put around women at work• How political and economic systems still profit from overworked, emotionally absent men, and what that means for your relationship• The truth: if your man is genuinely bad for you, you should leave; this episode is for people with a good man who's struggling• The tactic almost nobody uses: sitting in silence, breaking the touch barrier, and offering safety instead of demanding it from a depleted man Hosted on Acast.

Neoborn Caveman opens with a satirical reflection on life's mutual interactions and unfulfilled expectations, critiquing government and corporate intrusions—like dynamic pricing scams and AI coercion (e.g., Grok's 'hallucinations')—that undermine sovereignty and privacy. NC condemns Minnesota's teachers' union for promoting early sex education (including incest concerns), spotlights Jim McMurtry's Kafkaesque Canadian case, debunks alien/UFO distractions amid elite war games and military resource exploitation, and explores historical injustices through Proclamation 1625's Irish enslavement under British rule, calling for monarch reparations while drawing parallels to African slavery. He emphasizes inner peace over triggered hate, righteous rage for community defense, ethical stances against fake nudes and porn consumption, and affirming personal worth while encouraging blessings to others.Music guests: Sweet Water, pMad, Neoborn CavemanKey TakeawaysSovereignty requires rejecting corporate and political overreach.Political figures' histories (e.g., Keir Starmer's communist ties) reveal hidden agendas and absurdities.Historical enslavements like the Irish demand truthful acknowledgment and reparations from monarchs.Respecting differences builds stronger communities.Affirmations of worth counter societal pressures.Ethical rants: Stop creating/sharing fake images and consuming porn—it's bad for the soul.Independent thought resists manipulative narratives.Sound Bites"We are always forked over by the government, by the agencies, by the corporations and quite often by each other.""Do you think it's really good to encourage children for incest and other things like in Minnesota?""Keir Double Forking Starmer, you know, the communist camp lover.""King James I had this proclamation, ordering the Irish be placed in bondage.""The Irish and African slaves were housed together and were forced to mate.""Everybody's talking about reparations.

Is Business Strategy Just Luck, Privilege, and Repetition?Over time, I have become increasingly cautious about what strategy truly means. I have spent much of my career studying it, teaching it, and trying to apply it. Yet the longer I engage with the topic, the more I have come to wonder whether we sometimes overstate what we can actually achieve.Respecting the TraditionIt is important to acknowledge that the study of strategy has given us remarkable insights. The field has taught generations of scholars to think about positioning, competitive advantage, and the careful use of scarce resources. These ideas have shaped me deeply.The narrative assumes that we can diagnose a situation, marshal our resources, and execute a well-chosen plan. Yet when one examines real world examples as it actually unfolds—in markets, in careers, in scientific discovery—the connection between deliberate planning and eventual success appears less direct to me.The Invisible Forces: Luck and Social PositionMuch of what we observe as performance may be better explained by forces that are rarely incorporated into our models of organizational life: luck and social position. Luck determines when and where one is born, who crosses one's path, and which events unfold unexpectedly in one's favor. Social position shapes access to information, status, and networks that magnify opportunity.None of this invalidates the importance of strategy. It simply means that strategy often operates within constraints that are difficult to see and even harder to measure.If luck and position matter so much, what remains within our control? The answer lies in gumption and humility, rather than perfect decision-making. The causes of success and failure are often intertwined.In such a world, the most strategic capability may not be the ability to choose perfectly, but the ability to continue acting (gumption) when the outcomes are unclear. It is not brilliance, but endurance, or… stupidity.The Engine of Performance: Gumption and FaithI have grown to see persistence as the quiet foundation beneath every form of performance. Those who continue to show up, to be curious, and to believe that improvement is possible—despite repeated setbacks—often discover forms of success that were invisible.To me, this does not diminish the value of strategy; it deepens it. It reminds us that deliberate planning must coexist with faith. Something we have known for all of humanity.⸻The Humility to See ComplexityThe traditional tools of strategy remain valuable, but they describe only one slice of a vast, open, and adaptive system. Recognizing this should not make us cynical—it should make us humble.True strategic insight may not come from trying to control the world, but from patience, grace, and joy. Strategy, at its core, is not about mastery. It is about learning to move forward through muddy messes—again and again—while still believing that tomorrow can be brighter than today.

Your customers are changing because of AI. But so are you—whether you realize it or not. Host Dan Nestle welcomes back Mark Schaefer, whose new book How AI Changes Your Customers reveals a transformation most people aren't prepared for. As one of 300 futurists who contributed to Elon University's Being Human in 2035 study, Mark brings insights beyond the usual AI hype. Mark and Dan explore the psychological rewiring that is happening as AI reshapes human agency, empathy, purpose, and trust. They confront the choice everyone faces: use AI to augment your thinking, or delegate so much that critical skills atrophy. This isn't another "AI will save us" or "AI will ruin everything" conversation. It's a balanced look at implications most people haven't considered—like algorithms becoming decision-makers, with conversion rates from AI referrals 23 times higher than those from traditional SEO. Listen in and hear about... The psychology of AI and how humanity is being rewired Choosing between augmentation and delegation in your AI usage Why algorithms are becoming your actual customers The loss of agency, empathy, and purpose when we depend too heavily on AI How AI reveals patterns you didn't know existed through intellectual archaeology Notable Quotes On The Psychology of AI: "No one's talking about the psychology of AI that literally before our eyes, humanity is being rewired. The psychology of human beings is changing." - Mark Schaefer [00:08:13 → 00:08:28] On Attention Spans: "Don't tell me people don't have a long attention span. The problem is they're being more selective. You've got to earn it. So it's not that they have a short attention span. You, You've got a short interesting span. They're abandoning you for something else." - Mark Schaefer [00:15:38 → 00:15:53] On The Power of Vulnerability: "What this world is lacking is a real human voice, friendly, accessible, vulnerable. And think about the power of that. To really be human. You've got to be. Have a sense of vulnerability. But we don't get that from brand voices. Very, very rarely. And think of the opportunity to stand out, to be audacious, to just by flubbing up once in a while, just by admitting you made a mistake every once in a while." - Mark Schaefer [00:27:37 → 00:28:05] Resources and Links Dan Nestle Inquisitive Communications | Website The Trending Communicator | Website Communications Trends from Trending Communicators | Dan Nestle's Substack Dan Nestle | LinkedIn Mark Schaefer Mark Schaefer | Website and Blog How AI Changes Your Customers | Book (Amazon) The Marketing Companion | Podcast Mark Schaefer | LinkedIn The RISE Community | Apply to Join Timestamps 0:00:00 AI's Impact: Dan's Intro and Use of NotebookLM0:03:03 Mark's Reaction: AI Enables Bolder, Creative Work0:05:16 Mutual Mentorship and AI Experimentation0:07:29 Mark's Book: Humanity's Changing Psychology with AI0:09:12 Agency, Empathy, Intimacy, and AI Decision-Making0:11:41 AI Search: GEO, Marketing to Algorithms0:13:02 The Golden Age of PR: Credibility and Authority0:15:13 Attention Span Myth & Content Selectivity0:17:21 Volume vs. Quality: Content for AI and Humans0:19:35 Cumulative Advantage & Brand Authority in AI Era0:21:42 Personal Brand Building: Quality is Essential0:23:13 Earning Social Signals & Genuine Content0:25:47 AI Editing, Strategic Awkwardness, and Vulnerability0:28:46 Challenges for Corporates: Embracing Awkwardness0:31:20 Feelings as a Competitive Advantage0:35:28 Transcendence: Artful, Long-Form, and Human Content0:37:56 Respecting the Reader: Content Length & Value0:39:55 Hopeful AI: Augmentation, Mentorship, Markbot0:42:24 Real Education & AI: Preparing Young People0:42:46 Closing Remarks: Book Recommendation & Mark's Links (Notes co-created by Human Dan, Claude, and Castmagic) Learn more about your ad choices.

Samhain (pronounced “sah-wen”) and All Hallow's Eve is upon us, witches! And for most energy workers and magickal practitioners, we can feel something distinct in the air and energy around us this time of year. There is a natural pull to work with spirits and to connect with the dead. Sometimes this is experienced simply through the form of curiosity, and sometimes it feels more like a deeper call to purpose.In today's episode I'm going to walk you through a safe, responsible, ethical, and still effective approach to work with the dead, to honor spirits, and to respect ghosts. Helping you get clear on your own personal motives, where and when the best time for this work is, and how you can get started going about this sacred practice.If you haven't already, make sure you go back and listen to 191 Getting Safely Started in Spirit Communication & Death Witchery, which has some really helpful basics.

Summary In this conversation, S. Anthony Thomas explores the theme of indifference in relationships, detailing how it manifests and the emotional consequences it brings. He discusses the gradual decline of feelings in a relationship, leading to indifference, and how this can result in dehumanization of partners. The conversation emphasizes the importance of recognizing one's humanity and the need for respect in relationships to avoid the pitfalls of indifference. Takeaways Indifference can creep into relationships gradually. Dehumanization occurs when partners stop caring for each other. Indifference leads to a lack of emotional pain, which can be dangerous. When you dehumanize someone, you also damage your own humanity. Conflict can arise from indifference and lack of respect. It's important to communicate and address issues before they escalate. Indifference can lead to infidelity and emotional detachment. Respecting each other's humanity is crucial in relationships. Before acting out of anger, consider the consequences. Ending a relationship respectfully is better than becoming indifferent   Sound bites "You don't feel the pain anymore." "You don't become who you're supposed to be!" "Indifference never is."

Send us a textFire can burn a forest—or ignite a life. We explore how to partner with this element as a teacher and gatekeeper, harnessing its power for clarity, creativity, and compassionate strength without courting harm. From the first safety rule to the last spark of inspiration, we ground big ideas in simple, repeatable practices you can start today.We trace living fire traditions across cultures: African ceremonies that attune through dance and chant; North American peace pipe rituals that convert the power to fight into the choice to reconcile; Celtic shapeshifting and the transformative hearth; South American song circles that turn voices into a circuit of energy over coals; Australian Dreaming work entered through didgeridoo trance; and Siberian sweat lodges where drumming opens the spirit world. Rather than imitation, the lesson is reverence—honor lineage, seek guidance when needed, and build an ethical, personal relationship with flame.Practical tools fill the second half. Learn candle gazing to sync breath and attention with a safe flame. Try fire scrying with a clear intention and a respectful offering, then read symbols with your own intuition. Use full-moon burn rituals to release what's complete, and new-moon fire ceremonies to call in what you're ready to create. Offer your art—sketches, songs, dances—to invite momentum into your work, and carry the metaphor into daily life by remembering that every small spark mirrors the one in you.If this conversation gave you a new way to think about fire—safer, deeper, more creative—tap follow, share it with a friend who needs a spark, and leave a quick review so more listeners can find these practices.

In this episode of the Anatomy of Change podcast, Seth Studley delves into the concept of boundaries, emphasizing their importance in personal growth and relationships. He reviews the ten laws of boundaries as outlined in Dr. Henry Cloud's book, discussing how these laws can help individuals navigate their responsibilities, respect, and personal power. The conversation highlights the necessity of clear communication and proactive boundary-setting to foster healthier relationships and personal well-being. Boundaries are essential for healthy relationships. The law of sowing and reaping emphasizes consequences of actions. You are responsible to others, not for their actions. True power lies in controlling your own choices. Respecting others' boundaries is crucial for mutual respect. Boundaries should stem from love, not fear or guilt. Evaluating the impact of boundaries is important. Proactive boundaries define what you stand for, not just against. Envy can be mitigated by focusing on personal goals. Boundaries require action and clear communication. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

When you live this way, your quiet witness builds credibility and opens doors for the gospel.

Have you ever raised your voice at your kids and felt the sting of regret almost before the words were out? Every mom has been there, caught in the self-loathing aftermath. Motherhood has a way of pulling buried feelings to the surface. It can feel scary and out of control when we're swept up in a current that surprises us. Today's guest says the kids aren't the problem—it's our nervous systems.   In today's conversation, Whitney connects with Sammy Chessa, a nervous system guide who gets real about her own motherhood journey. Sammy remembers the season of cycling between yelling and shame, holding it together on the outside while quietly unraveling within. What shifted was her decision to meet herself differently, to notice what her body was saying and finding tools to help her mother from a steadier place.   She discovered a new truth: success begins with a calm nervous system. From that calm, new rhythms take root, rhythms of trust, presence and devotion instead of depletion.   Sammy's insights on simple practices, honoring feminine rhythms and trusting intuition will leave you both grounded and inspired.   Here's what you can look forward to in this episode: Sammy's parenting style before learning how to parent from a more grounded place Taking the time to accept and feel all of our emotions as moms Signs that our nervous systems are sending us an alarm bell Cultivating a personal practice that makes your nervous system feel safe Respecting your natural feminine rhythms Lessons Sammy hopes to teach her daughter if she chooses to become a mother Breaking away from self-sabotage as moms Seeing motherhood as a devotion rather than a chore Reflection question to ponder: How am I truly feeling wholeheartedly? In my body? In my spirit? In my energy?   DOORS ARE OPEN FOR SEASON TO SHIFT.
