Post-Traumatic Growth: Can Pain Fuel Transformation and Purpose?

What if trauma didn't just break us but could also shape us in powerful ways? In this thought-provoking episode, Krista St-Germain and Gabe Howard dive into the complex world of post-traumatic growth — exploring how some people emerge from life's darkest moments with deeper purpose, stronger connections, and realigned values. This concept, however, isn't about being “grateful” for suffering. It's about rejecting toxic positivity, confronting internal conflicts, and embracing intentional choices. Discover how curiosity, authenticity, and self-reflection can guide you from surviving to thriving — without minimizing pain. If you've ever wondered whether growth after trauma is possible (or how it really works), this episode will change the way you think about resilience. “My husband died when I was 40. He was killed by a drunk driver. And that was the most awful thing I ever experienced, right? Bar none. I didn't want it to happen. I'm not grateful that it happened. I used to think that in order to experience post-traumatic growth, when I first learned about it, that would mean I would have to be happy that it happened, 100%, no! Right? No, not at all.” ~Krista St-Germain To learn more -- or read the transcript -- please visit the official episode page. Our guest, Krista St-Germain, is a Master Certified Life Coach, Post-Traumatic Growth and grief expert, widow, mom and host of The Widowed Mom Podcast. When her husband was killed by a drunk driver in 2016, Krista's life was completely and unexpectedly flipped upside down. After therapy helped her uncurl from the fetal position, Krista discovered Life Coaching, Post-Traumatic Growth and learned the tools she needed to move forward and create a future she could get excited about. Now she coaches and teaches other widows so they can love life again, too. Krista has been featured online and in print in Psychology Today, Medium, Thrive Global, Bustle, Psych Central, and Parents Magazine and on select podcasts such as The SelfWork Podcast, Seek The Joy, Life Check Yourself, and You Need A Budget to name a few. Our host, Gabe Howard, is an award-winning writer and speaker who lives with bipolar disorder. He is the author of the popular book, "Mental Illness is an Asshole and other Observations," available from Amazon; signed copies are also available directly from the author. Gabe makes his home in the suburbs of Columbus, Ohio. He lives with his supportive wife, Kendall, and a Miniature Schnauzer dog that he never wanted, but now can't imagine life without.

Krista St-Germain shares her journey with grief following the death of her husband by a drunken driver. She explains how the commonly referenced five stages of grief are inadequate – if not outright inaccurate – for many people's experiences. She discusses alternative grief theories, such as the dual process model, and introduces the concepts of “grief plateau” and “grief fog,” highlighting the complexity and uniqueness of each person's experience of grief. In her work as a grief expert, Krista advocates for a more individualized approach to grief, emphasizing the process of integration and post-traumatic growth rather than just “moving on” or reaching acceptance. She is a master certified life coach, a post-traumatic growth and grief expert, widow, mom, and the host of “The Widowed Mom Podcast.” To learn more -- or read the transcript -- please visit the episode page.

Horse Hippie’s Morning Mantras

Morning Mantra: “You either live a life of struggle with occasional joy, or you live a life of joy with occasional struggle. It's up to you.”I read this the other day and it really hit me hard.  I have been feeling like I have been struggling lately, but I know that life is supposed to be full of joy. It's supposed to be enjoyable. We are supposed to be in-joy.  Of course, I understand that there will be things I struggle with here and there, but life isn't supposed to BE a struggle.The trick is you must see, find, and feel the joy instead of the struggle. We must seek it out. There is joy EVERYWHERE! See the joy in the flowers, in the blue sky, a sunset, in your child's smile, in the shine of your horse's coat.Hear the joy in your cat's purr, in your child's laugh, in music, in crickets, in a bird's song.Feel the joy in a hug, in a warm bath, with your bare feet in the dewy grass, in the softness of your blanket, in the flavor of a good meal.The more you look for joy and find it, the more strength you will have for the occasional struggle. We must choose the joy, over and over, instead of making choices that can make life more difficult.#BeAJoySeeker #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #inspirationalQuotes #MorningMotivation #Equestrian #HorseLover #QuotesToInspire #HorseHippieBrand #HorseHippieBoutique

Lessons In Grief as a Conduit to Joy with Cat Peters

Cat Peters joins us to share a lesson she's learned about the relationship between grief and joy, and how grief can actually be a conduit to joy, hope, possibility, and connection if we allow it. Cat shares the role of remaining present in processing our grief, why so many of us have beliefs around grief that aren't serving us - like, we won't be able to handle it, it's too big, it's a weakness - and how we can begin to shift these beliefs. We also dive into the difference between grief and other emotions like blame, shame, guilt and regret, the transformational power of grief, the richness that comes from allowing ourselves to feel and experience all of our emotions, and why it's so important to validate our experience around pet loss. Cat's reflections, honesty, and vulnerability will leave you feeling inspired, and remind you that our journey through grief is a deeply personal and intimate journey, but it's not one we're meant to go alone. Cat Peters is a Certified Professional Mindset Coach and Energy Leadership Master Practitioner. After a long and successful career creating multiple businesses and traveling the world, Catherine faced burnout on an epic level. A breast cancer diagnosis in 2018 changed the trajectory of her life. In her search to heal herself and her life, she answered a long-time calling to help others as well. She now helps her clients heal their minds, clearing out the crap in their heads so they can finally create the life of their dreams, filled with magic, purpose, and lots of joy.

Jessica shares why the fear of failure and the fear of success are linked, the connection between perception and receiving love, why trust and faith are the direct opposite of fear, and the role of self-sovereignty in transforming our mindset and limiting beliefs. Jessica’s reflections, honesty, and vulnerability will leave you feeling inspired, and remind you that we are so much powerful than we believe, and that we can step into our greatness. Ultimately, we can transform what we believe is limiting us into our most expansive beliefs, and ultimately it’s up to us to empower ourselves through our journey. Jessica Soares is an empowerment and self-sovereignty coach and tarot reader specializing in holding space for people who are ready to live a life by design and not default. She is passionate about helping individuals go from feeling lackluster, lost and stifled by life to feeling empowered, confident and liberated from the ties that bind us.

Today we're sharing our next episode in our series "Lessons In" with Veronica Grant.  Veronica Grant is a Love + Life Coach, host of the popular Love Life Connection podcast, and believed deep work is the only way to deep love. She helps successful women who feel like they have it all except love, find it.  Veronica Grant joins us to share a lesson she’s learned about working with our inner child to transform our relationship patterns. Through healing her relationship with her body and discovering her own innate worthiness, Veronica embarked on a journey back to herself through uncovering and healing her limiting beliefs, and ultimately connecting with her inner child. As Veronica shares, when we work with our inner child we’re able to connect the dots between a core childhood wound we experienced with our dating and relationship patterns, and when we heal that wound we no longer attract partners from that place. Veronica’s reflections, honesty, and vulnerability will leave you feeling inspired, and remind you that to find the deep love that we’re craving, we have to be willing to do the deep inner work.

Happy #SeekTheJoy Tuesday! On the podcast today is Lindsay Gardner, illustrator, artist and author of the new book, WHY WE COOK: Women On Food, Identity, and Connection. Why We Cook highlights the voices of women in the culinary world, their varied perspectives and experiences, and is a beautiful celebration of where food meets feminism. Food has the power to connect us, and bring about greater empathy, compassion, and understanding. In many ways, Lindsay’s beautiful illustrations and writing serves to empower all women to reclaim their place in the kitchen. In today’s episode Lindsay and I chat about: The inspiration behind Why We Cook, Lindsay’s desire to share the perspectives and achievements of women in the culinary world that are often overlooked, and the questions that drove Lindsay’s research for the book. The impact of COVID-19 on the food and restaurant industry, what we can learn from being in the kitchen, the power of food to connect us, and cooking as a form of storytelling. Lindsay gives us a behind the scenes look at the first interview she did for the book, the conversation that surprised her the most, and we dive into just some of the profiles in the book, from Carla Hall, Gray Chapman, Celia Sack to Gail Simmons. Plus, Lindsay shares the greatest lesson she learned from writing the book, how her relationship to cooking has changed, her biggest dream, and so much more!

Today on the podcast we sit down with Sydney Weiss, creator, host and producer of Seek The Joy Podcast. We get to explore Sydney's personal story of how she herself became a joy seeker and what led her to create her beautiful platform and community. After dealing with a slew of health issues from shingles to appendicitis, having graduated from Law School, and failing the bar exam the first time she sat for it -- Sydney found herself in a messy hole and just didn't feel like herself. She shares that she was in a space of shame, anger, and embarrassment, had gone through months of not listening to her body, running herself ragged, and being down right mean to herself.  This experience took a toll on Sydney, but after a moment of great inspiration she knew she wanted to create a community based on conversation where folks could share their stories, feel less alone and explore what brought them joy. Thus, Seek the Joy Podcast was born. Now, a practicing lawyer, Sydney balances her joy with the demands of her profession and explores with us how her daily rituals and routines cultivate joy for her. We thoroughly enjoyed connecting with Sydney and you can even check us out on her podcast this week by clicking here for apple podcasts  and here for Spotify  Sydney is also hosting "The Joy Summit" on Saturday April 10th.

 Download Podcast Transcript At a very specific moment in her life, Sydney Weiss knew that she needed to make a change in the way that she viewed herself and the way she connected with others. From that necessity, Seek The Joy Podcast was born. The show is about to reach 200 episodes now, and instead of doing it to promote herself, she uses it to help others and create a community. Sydney produces, interviews, edits, and publishes her podcast, and she's also a full-time lawyer. How does she manage to do it all? And what advice can she give to someone who wants to start their podcast? Let's find out. Highlights:What makes you seek the joy? Sydney tells us about the beginnings of the show, when she was trying to pass her Bar Exam to be a lawyer, and failed to do so.Sydney started her podcast to serve others, instead of doing it as a companion to her own business. Her main topics are the ones that she is interested in, and she thinks about how that information can help her audience.Podcasts are a great way to connect with people. Sydney defines podcasts as a way to build relationships with your guests and with your audience, and what you share in that platform should be serving those relationships.How can you do it all? The secret for Sydney is time management and planning the productions. Sydney created a rhythm and schedule that work for her. It was a process of trial and error, but it was necessary to evolve and find her way.How to start a podcast? Although there are many resources and guides available, Sydney recommends you to figure out first why you want to start a podcast, what do you want to talk about. Is it going to be like a friends' conversation? Be honest about how much you can handle at the beginning, don't be afraid to start small, and let yourself grow from that. It won't be perfect, but you will learn and evolve along the way.An accidental entrepreneur: Sydney received so many questions about podcasts, she decided to create a podcast consulting, where she helps others to develop their shows.   You can follow Sydney on Instagram, visit Seek The Joy Podcast's website or listen to it on Spotify or Apple Podcast.
