Welcome back to the "Waiting for Weight Loss" Lenten series on the Compared to Who? Podcast! In this heartfelt episode, host Heather Creekmore dives deep into the challenge so many face: How can we desire body change or weight loss while still honoring, loving, and accepting the bodies we have—right now? Episode Highlights: Heather Creekmore unpacks why self-hatred is NOT a biblical motivator for change, and what healthier (and more effective) alternatives look like. You’ll hear practical, grace-filled advice on: Buying clothes that fit and flatter your body today, not waiting for a “goal weight.” Stopping the cycle of body checking, mirror scanning, and anxious self-critique. Shifting your mindset from shame-driven to gratitude-driven, even if you’re still on the journey to acceptance. Releasing comparison and learning to thank your body for all it’s helped you accomplish, instead of shaming it for what it’s not. Embracing the foundation of being loved and accepted by Jesus as you are, regardless of your current size or shape. Key Takeaways: It's absolutely possible to want change for your body without making shame your motivation. Acceptance now actually sets you up for healthier choices later—no more waiting for the "perfect" time or body. True transformation starts with knowing you are already fully loved in Christ.

“Love yourself” is everywhere — but most people don't actually know what it means. In this Carmen Talk, I break down why the real work isn't about loving yourself first… it's about knowing yourself. Because when you truly know who you are, the love part takes care of itself.In this episode, I walk through three practical ways to start knowing yourself — not in a self‑help, fluffy way, but in a grounded, real‑life way that actually changes how you move through the world:1. Know your strengths and weaknessesHow understanding both sides of yourself reshapes your confidence, your choices, and your relationships.2. Know how people perceive you vs. what's actually trueWhy perception is only the “tip of the iceberg,” and how the real story — the work, the foundation, the history — lives underneath.3. Know your patterns, not your storiesYour story explains you. Your patterns define you. Once you see the difference, everything shifts.This episode is for anyone who's tired of the vague “love yourself” advice and wants something real, actionable, and honest.Know yourself deeply, and self‑love becomes a byproduct — not a chore.Thank you for stopping by.

Healing Hierarchy Distortion Healing Hierarchy Distortion is a maladaptive relational cognitive–affective pattern in which one partner attributes interpretive, moral, or psychological authority to themselves based on perceived advancement in personal development, thereby establishing implicit hierarchical asymmetry within the intimate bond — despite the fact that inner truth unfolds uniquely, nonlinearly, and without universal roadmap.
On this week's episode of Artist Friendly, Joel Madden is joined by Ryan Cabrera. After graduating from high school, Cabrera played acoustic guitar in Rubix Groove, opening for Cheap Trick and Third Eye Blind. A solo career came calling, though, leading to early 2000s pop stardom, mall tours, and a platinum album. That eventually segued into guest appearances on The Hills and meeting WWE superstar Alexa Bliss at a SmackDown premiere in LA, whom he married in 2022. Sitting down with Madden, the duo has a funny, vulnerable conversation about growing up in public, balancing family and touring, and what success means. ------- Chapters (0:00) Intro (3:02) Married to a Wrestler (8:32) On-Stage Persona (11:59) Good Charlotte's Christmas Performances (15:00) Boy Bands & Emo Writing (19:00) Mall Tours & The Early Years (23:15) Keeping Integrity in the Music Industry (27:05) Performing When You're Not Okay (28:00) Fatherhood Changes Everything (32:38) Therapy & Fatherhood (36:06) How Ryan Met Alexa Bliss (40:30) The Stalker Experience (43:07) The Dark Side of Fame (45:50) Self-Esteem & Self-Acceptance (48:00) Handling Conflict in Marriage (49:00) What Success Really Takes (54:28) Returning to Music After Fatherhood (57:53) Ryan Key & Ryan Cabrera's Friendship ------- Listen to their Artist Friendly conversation on Spotify. ------- Follow Artist Friendly!

Invisible Scars: Surviving, Healing, and Finding Your Voice with Christopher CarazasSome of the deepest wounds are the ones no one can see.In this powerful and vulnerable episode, we explore invisible scars with survivor, storyteller, and global development and social impact leader Christopher Carazas. Christopher shares his deeply personal journey of being diagnosed with autism as an adult—and how years of masking his true self left him feeling like he never truly belonged.Instead of receiving understanding and compassion after his diagnosis, Christopher was met with psychological, emotional, and verbal abuse. He was told he wasn't good enough, that he should be ashamed of his existence, and that he didn't deserve the space he took up in the world. These cruel and dehumanizing messages led him to attempt suicide—twice. Thankfully, Christopher is still here.Those experiences became the foundation for his memoir, Now That I'm Still Here, a raw and honest exploration of trauma, autism, grief, abuse, and survival.Christopher describes his life as a “mosaic of shifting landscapes and invisible scars.” Growing up across continents, he learned to adapt constantly while rarely feeling accepted. Masking his autism became a survival strategy—until abuse weaponized his differences and pushed him toward collapse and silence. Healing did not come dramatically or heroically, but breath by breath.Through profound loss, grief, and rebuilding after devastation, Christopher found his way back to himself through writing. His story speaks to anyone who has survived emotional abuse, lived with grief as a daily companion, or struggled to reclaim their voice—especially men and neurodivergent individuals who are often taught to stay silent.This episode is a reminder that survival itself is meaningful—and that telling our stories can be a powerful act of healing.In this episode, we discuss:Invisible scars and why they can be just as painful as physical woundsAdult autism diagnosis and the lifelong impact of maskingThe devastating effects of emotional, psychological, and verbal abuseSuicide attempts, survival, and choosing to keep goingGrief, loss, and rebuilding after everything falls apartWriting as a pathway to healing and reclaiming identityWhy men and neurodivergent individuals must be supported in finding their voicesConnect with Christopher:

He emphasizes practicing self-compassion, reducing comparison, changing self-talk, and learning to love yourself through respect and kindness. Cohan explains that self-confidence is situation-specific and built through preparation and repetition, while self-esteem is a deeper sense of self-worth built by living aligned with your values, letting go of perfection, volunteering, and managing negative inner dialogue. He ties these together into believing in yourself through dreaming, setting short- and long-term goals, treating yourself well, building motivation through momentum, keeping faith during hard times, and practicing gratitude, then challenges listeners to pick one practice to implement and invites them to share, subscribe, review, and visit the Elevate Life Project website. 00:00 Welcome to Elevate Life 00:41 Why Self Acceptance Matters 02:18 What Self Acceptance Isnt 03:40 Compassion and Self Love 06:01 Self Esteem vs Confidence 08:33 Building Real Self Esteem 11:21 How to Believe in Yourself 14:45 Bring It All Together 15:07 Weekly Challenge and Next Steps 15:36 Closing and Outro #SelfAcceptance #SelfEsteem #SelfConfidence #BelieveInYourself #PersonalGrowth #MindsetMatters #ElevateYourLife #SelfLove #InnerWork #ElevateLifeProject #PodcastEpisode #MentalWellness #SelfImprovement #GrowthMindset #LoveYourself
Welcome back to the "Compared to Who?" podcast! In today’s episode, host Heather Creekmore continues the Waiting for Weight Loss series, taking us through the third "exhale": Establishing Your Purpose. Episode Highlights: Heather Creekmore gets real about her longtime struggle with believing that she needed to “fix” her body before stepping into her God-given purpose. She addresses the misconception that physical appearance is necessary for spiritual effectiveness, referencing Biblical truths and reflecting on Jesus’ own earthly life. Do you ever feel like your body is an accident or a barrier to God’s plans? Heather dives deep into the theological roots of these beliefs and encourages listeners to release them. Discover why God intentionally created your body for HIS purposes—not your goal weight, not your own timeline—and how the idea of stewardship is often misunderstood. Real talk about shifting your focus: from waiting for weight loss to living out your calling, right now. Listen for practical encouragement: Heather leads a breathing exercise to help you exhale the pressure and inhale purpose. Key Takeaways: God’s purpose for your life is not on hold until you hit a certain weight or achieve a certain look. Your body was intentionally crafted, and you can embrace your calling today. Stewardship of your body matters, but it shouldn’t overshadow all other gifts and stewardship principles—in fact, there’s no direct Biblical command to be a “good steward” of your body above all else. The more you step into your purpose and gifting, the more you’ll find peace with your body image. Join the Community! What stood out to you in today’s episode?

Welcome back to the Compared to Who? podcast and our ongoing series, Waiting for Weight Loss. In today’s episode, Heather Creekmore shares a powerful story about a time when her identity—literally—was stolen, setting the stage for an honest discussion about our true identity in Christ. Episode Highlights: Heather Creekmore opens up with a personal experience of being mugged and losing her physical identification, making the connection to how many of us “lose” our spiritual identity while chasing the approval of others or pursuing body goals. She asks: Has your identity been stolen—figuratively—by misplaced priorities, societal pressures, or the pursuit of weight loss? We explore the idea that any identity outside of Christ is a “fake ID,” and discuss what it means to rest in our adoption as daughters (and sons) of God. Heather Creekmore unpacks how our attempts to earn love and acceptance through appearance or achievements are distractions from the Gospel. The healthiest approach to weight loss and goals? Pursuing them from a place of already being fully loved and accepted, not from a place of insecurity or striving to earn worth. Reflection Questions: What “fake IDs” have you been carrying? How would your approach to your body and your goals change if you truly believed your identity was already secure in Christ? Check out Episode on Boasting Here Join the Community!Join the conversation! Heather Creekmore invites you to become part of our supportive community at waitingforweightloss.com.

Lawrence Zarian hosts an episode of “You Are Beautiful” with guest Melissa Errico, beginning with a candid, humorous setup about lighting, auditions, and aesthetics before moving into Lawrence's background as a longtime TV makeover expert and QVC clothing designer behind “Beautiful by Lawrence Zarian.” They talk about how fashion is less about how you look and more about how you feel, share favorite pieces from Lawrence's line (including blues, an off-the-shoulder rosette top, and a scalloped V-neck stripe), and discuss what Melissa wears to feel confident—V-necks, black-and-white Breton stripes, vintage biker boots, and eclectic, artsy combinations. Lawrence and Melissa also answer a mirror question about what they like seeing in themselves that day, including Melissa's healing from an eye stye, feeling rested, and fresh red hair, and Lawrence's enjoyment of wearing blue, having a good hair day after hair loss post-COVID, and embracing turning 60. The conversation expands into Melissa's artistry and origins: her father playing Michel Legrand at home during the Vietnam era, how that music later led to Melissa's close collaboration with Legrand on Broadway and on a symphonic record (“Legrand Affair” with the Brussels Philharmonic), and her formative experience seeing “On Your Toes” on Broadway that made her sob and sparked her desire to perform. They discuss Sondheim's “Beautiful” from “Sunday in the Park with George,” which Melissa reads aloud to frame beauty as something that changes, and Lawrence's intent to focus his podcast on the essence of people rather than projects. Melissa then describes her evolving relationship with Barbra Streisand—how Malcolm Gets pushed her to truly listen, how Streisand's artistry feels like a force of nature, and how Melissa's “The Streisand Effect” concert is an homage exploring what Streisand made possible rather than a tribute imitation. They share personal connections to Broadway (including Lawrence's first love story with Hugh Panaro after seeing “Les Misérables,” and plans to coordinate seeing him perform again), and Melissa recounts meeting Streisand briefly backstage at Madison Square Garden. Melissa also describes creating a new song concept, “Daughter of Fire,” inspired by Streisand's memoir and a moment with her own daughter, and she closes by sharing her current release: an album titled “I Can Dream, Can't I?” rolled out as weekly singles via a “waterfall release,” featuring classic American songs and ending with Joni Mitchell's “Both Sides Now.” The episode ends with Lawrence's signature prompt—Melissa answering “I am beautiful because…”—and she responds that she is beautiful because she feels music deeply as something precious that passes through her.Timestamp Menu: 00:51 Broadway Beginnings and My Fair Lady01:49 Meet Lawrence and the Beauty Theme02:46 Fashion Crushes and QVC Picks04:24 How a Designer Is Made08:31 Podcast Origin and Mirror Question09:32 Melissa on Exhaustion and Healing12:38 Three Things You Like Today15:14 Aging and Self Acceptance at 6017:24 Sondheim Beautiful Reading21:58 Melissa Musical Spark and Legrand26:56 Broadway Awakening and Les Mis30:48 Broadway Crush Memories31:30 Broadway Boyfriends Bond32:14 Streisand Effect Origins37:05 Meeting Barbra Briefly39:40 Daughter of Fire Song42:26 Style That Feels Fire48:21 Wardrobe Tips After 4053:37 New Album Dreaming56:32 Beautiful Because Music58:35 Blue Love Farewell
Thom's Nutshell Wisdom: “Practice conversations to convey rather than convince.” Healthy Conversation is “present-centered.” In a healthy conversation, we don't need to know exactly what we're trying to convey. With defenses down, we learn more. How much “we,” and how much “I” can we include in any relationship? How can we get on the same side of the problem? Anxiety is at the root of why we do this. We feel threatened so we feel a compulsion to manipulate someone into our point of view. The first step of dismantling this is awareness that its happening. Then we “befriend our experience,” which we derive from the work of Nathaniel Branden. Visit our website: www.emotionalsobriety.info Follow us on social media: Instagram: thomrutledge2 Joe C.

Welcome back to this How to Fail special where we revisit conversations from the archive to highlight particular themes and tap into the wisdom they contain. This week we look at two guests who have learned self acceptance: first, we hear from actress and global icon Pamela Anderson. She reflects on the toll that being in the public eye had on her body image and the long road to self-acceptance. Rylan Clark then takes us back to his childhood, where he opens up about growing up feeling different, navigating his sexuality and surviving bullying, which left him with a fractured skull. Rylan's resilience is a reminder that truly owning who we are not only empowers us, but also shapes the individuals we are meant to become. I hope this episode provides understanding, solidarity and light to anyone who may be struggling or supporting someone they love.

In this episode of Compared to Who?, Heather Creekmore invites listeners to take a deeply-needed exhale from the relentless messages around body image and self-worth that the world sends our way. Building on the "Waiting for Weight Loss" series, Heather opens up about her own struggles with feeling valuable through fitness and body changes, and the letdown that follows when external goals don’t bring the internal peace we’re promised. Heather dives into the concept of "monetized insecurity"—the way industries profit from our feelings of inadequacy—and breaks down why finding your worth in God, not in weight loss or body perfection, is the only path that leads to real security and rest. You’ll walk away with: Practical breathwork exercises for grounding and relaxation A guided prayer for internalizing your true value An honest look at cultural lies vs. God’s unchanging truth about your worth Reflective questions to revisit whenever you need a reminder that you are already loved, worthy, and enough Key Question: Whose message is easier for you to believe: monetized insecurity or God's message of worth beyond what you measure? Call to Action Ready to break free from the pressure and join a supportive, faith-based community on your journey? Join the Waiting for Weight Loss Community—it’s totally free! Connect with others for real conversations, encouragement, and support as you dig into what it means to find worth beyond the scale.

Former guest and longtime friend John Amodeo joins Allen and Thom to advocate “gentle presence” 9 making ourselves available to the full range of what we're experiencing in the moment, whether pleasure and pain. People are afraid of their emotions - “If I start crying, when will I stop?” The greater danger, in our experience, is the suppression of emotion. We also touch on processing failure and mistakes, cautioning against blame. When we get stuck in blame, we don't learn and grow from our experiences.

Self-acceptance. Self-compassion. Self-love. Self-care.Today, on Episode #191 of the Habit Thrive Podcast, we explore how research shows that these four practices are deeply connected, but they are not interchangeable.Self-acceptance reduces internal conflict and builds emotional stability.Self-compassion lowers stress and increases resilience after setbacks — and contrary to popular belief, it actually strengthens motivation.Self-love shapes identity and self-worth, influencing the boundaries we set and the long-term choices we make.Self-care, the behavioural piece, reinforces well-being through consistent, supportive action that improves sleep, mood, stress levels, and overall health.Sometimes we don't need another routine. Sometimes we need to accept where we are; to soften the inner critic; to remember that we are worthy of care, joy, and respect.And, sometimes, we simply need one small action that supports our body and spirit today.I'll also offer four grounded affirmations you can carry with you as you move through your week.If you've been feeling stuck, discouraged, or unsure where to begin, this conversation will gently guide you back to yourself.On this episode:Power & Purpose Daily Motivations: A Year of Coming Home to Yourself: Find it hereLoving the show?

Join Monica and Taylor for a thoughtful (and surprisingly layered!) chat about the "not like other girls" conundrum. What started as a casual comment during recording turned into a fascinating exploration of how we as women pit ourselves against each other—and for what? In this episode, we unpack: The origins of the "not like other girls" trope and how it shows up in our lives Our own experiences with feeling pressure to either stand out OR fit in (spoiler: we had opposite journeys!) How this connects to mommy wars, feminism, and those impossible gender roles we're all trying to navigate Why Gen Z might actually be doing this better than we did The beautiful messiness of self-acceptance Plus: We get real about raising daughters, the cafeteria-style approach to life choices, and why "let people like what they like" might be the most important phrase ever. Bottom line? We're all just humans having individual experiences. The sooner we accept ourselves (and each other), the better off we'll all be.

Okay, y'all. Buckle up for a full-body reminder: there is nothing wrong with you. In this episode, I'm throwing down the truth about judgment (yours and everyone else's), ego meltdowns, pink hair stereotypes, and what happens when you finally shut up long enough to hear what's going on in your own head. We get real about red pepper anxiety, the silent retreat that changed me, and the quote that's been living rent-free in my brain: “No one will ever love you the way you want to be loved… because that's your job.” Spoiler: there's also a blue breath meditation to clear out your throat chakra so you can speak your truth without all the noise. It's part pep talk, part truth bomb, and all heart. Let's go.

Welcome to February and the month of love here on the Habit Thrive Podcast!On Episode #190 today, we're exploring the language of self-care that's everywhere right now—and we're asking an important question:Are self-acceptance, self-compassion, self-love, and self-care really the same thing… or do they each invite us into something different?Together, we break down these four concepts and why understanding the distinction can help us experience them more intentionally and more fully.What self-acceptance really means, and how it allows us to be fully humanHow self-compassion supports us when we struggle or make mistakesWhy self-love is about worthiness, not behaviorHow self-care becomes more meaningful when it's rooted in awarenessWhy noticing our habits is the first step toward changeRather than separate ideas, these practices form a living ecosystem—shaping how we speak to ourselves, treat ourselves, and show up in our lives.✨ This week's invitation: notice, journal, question, and stay curious. Next week, we'll explore why these distinctions matter and how they play out in our everyday habits.On this episode:Power & Purpose Daily Motivations: A Year of Coming Home to Yourself: Find it hereLoving the show?

Anxiety isn't just a feeling—it's a pattern wired by past experiences and reinforced by daily stress. We sit down with Dr. Brian Alman to unpack why so many of us run tense, sleep poorly, and carry headaches and stomach aches, and how those signals trace back to unresolved adversity. He explains how ACE (Adverse Childhood Experience) and positive experience assessments reveal the hidden roots of adult anxiety, addiction, and burnout, and how to turn that awareness into real change.Dr. Alman's approach is both scientific and human. He connects epigenetics, immune system load, and chronic stress, showing why the body can't heal while it's busy fighting emotional fires. Then he lays out a practical sequence: start with awareness, move to unconditional acceptance, express what was never voiced, and get past the inner judge that says “you should be over this.” On the other side is your inner wisdom—steady, compassionate, actionable. His tree metaphor makes it clear: feelings are the roots, thoughts the trunk, behaviors the branches; healthy branches require healthy roots.We also get into daily tools that fit real life. Think two to three-minute techniques that downshift your nervous system and help you process today's stress before it stacks into tomorrow's anxiety. For parents, Dr. Alman shares simple ways to practice patience, model acceptance, and remember the younger “rings” within each of us. And we challenge the myth of instant enlightenment, redefining it as a journey toward unconditional self-acceptance—progress measured one situation at a time.If you're ready to stop managing symptoms and start healing causes, this conversation offers a roadmap that blends evidence with empathy.

Stuck in limiting beliefs as an autistic or AuDHD adult—thoughts like "I am not good enough because of autism" or feeling like different "parts" of you are constantly fighting each other? In this episode of Adulting With Autism, Tamara Andreas joins to talk about Core Transformation, a gentle inner-work process she co-developed that has been taught worldwide for over 30 years. Tamara explains the idea of "parts" in a grounded way: the part that wants to keep you safe, the part that is scared of change, the part that believes you have to mask. She walks through how to acknowledge these parts with respect, ask what they are trying to do for you, and then guide them toward deeper "core states" such as peace, love, or OK-ness—without forcing yourself to "think positive." You will hear a guided example of the process, how Core Transformation grew out of her and Connirae Andreas' work, and why this approach can be especially supportive for autistic and ADHD adults who have been shamed, gaslit, or told to "fix" themselves. We also talk about pacing, safety, and why it is okay to pause or come back to the process as needed. This episode is especially helpful if you: Carry a lot of shame or harsh self-talk tied to autism or being "too sensitive" Feel fragmented, like different parts of you are pulling in opposite directions Want a structured, yet compassionate way to explore inner peace and self-acceptance If this conversation supports you, follow/subscribe to Adulting With Autism on YouTube, Apple, or Spotify and leave a 5-star review so more neurodivergent adults can find it.

We're going to look at why that "never enough" feeling shows up, how patterns like over-responsibility early in life, conditional validation, and fear-based survival wire us into always pushing and never quite feeling caught up, and how simply understanding this can start to soften the cycle you've been stuck in. In this episode, you will learn: Why the feeling of being "behind" has so little to do with your actual productivity, and so much to do with how you learned to stay safe and valued The three core patterns that wire high-achievers into constant pressure, overdoing, and never feeling like enough How understanding where this cycle came from can start to loosen its grip, so you can relate to yourself with more compassion and less self-blame ✨ Remember: You are exactly where you need to be right now. ✨ 00:00 Introduction: The Never Enough Feeling 01:20 Understanding the Feeling of Being Behind 03:18 Core Patterns Leading to Overwhelm 03:32 Over Responsibility in Childhood 05:10 Conditional or Inconsistent Validation 06:13 Fear-Based Survival 07:19 Breaking the Cycle and Self-Compassion 08:52 Re-Parenting and Self-Acceptance 10:37 Conclusion and Next Steps ——————— Calmly Coping is a self-improvement podcast for high achievers who struggle with high-functioning anxiety to help you feel more calm, balanced, and confident from within. ———————

Hey Heal Squad! Today Chris Appleton is with Maria and if you thought you knew his story… think again. Beyond the exterior of being a celebrity hairstylist (he's worked on some of the most iconic women in the world like Jennifer Lopez, Kim Kardashian, and Ariana Grande), Chris is opening up about a side of his life the world has rarely heard. In this episode, Chris goes deep into the generational trauma, childhood labels, and bullying that shaped him at age six, and the years he spent abandoning himself in order to perform for the world. He also speaks candidly about the night he tried to take his life after coming out: a moment that was both devastating and, shockingly, the beginning of his reinvention. But Chris's story doesn't end there. He was rescued, and that moment became his second chance to live authentically. This is all detailed in his new book, Your Roots Don't Define You, and reminds all of us that becoming who you really are is always worth the fight. If you're on your own path of transformation, this is a must-listen. Just a heads up, it's a very honest and vulnerable conversation, so please listen with care. HEALERS & HEAL-LINERS: Reinvention Begins With Returning to Yourself: Chris reminded us that reinvention is about going back to the version of yourself you've abandoned & real transformation begins when we choose to see ourselves without apology. How to Break Generational Patterns: Trauma can get passed down quietly through silence, survival, and emotional suppression. But healing can move forward through awareness, therapy, and refusing to live by the labels you were given. It can stop with YOU!

Erika Ristovski and I explore the profound journey of spiritual awakening, touching on themes of mediumship, healing, and the interconnectedness of all beings. Erika shares her personal experiences with spirit, interdimensional beings, and the importance of self-acceptance. The discussion emphasizes the power of intuition and the transformative nature of embracing one's spiritual path, while also addressing the challenges faced in relationships when navigating spiritual growth. Ultimately, the conversation serves as a reminder that we are all enough and capable of achieving our desires through self-acceptance and connection with the divine. Erika Ristovski is a Psychic Medium, Healer, and Spiritual Life Coach who founded Quantum Transformation S.L., a sanctuary dedicated to rapid personal transformation, healing, and growth. Drawing from her own triumphs over depression, anxiety, and heightened sensitivity to energies, she empowers individuals to overcome life's challenges, rediscover inner strength, tune into intuition, harness energy, and live authentically with joy and purpose. From a reserved, introverted childhood in Colombia marked by self-doubt and isolation, Erika evolved through self-reflection and energetic practices, transitioning from a successful career as an exhibiting artist and educator—where she impacted communities through heart-centered knowledge sharing—to her current expertise with over 20 years in the Healing Arts, including certifications in business energetics and quantum harmonization. Today, she leads public speaking engagements, workshops on emotional intelligence, healing circles, and private mentorships, creating safe spaces for vulnerability and growth with a gentle, loving, and direct approach enriched by relatable stories. Now residing in Spain with her husband of 15 years, their dog, and 6-year-old son after two decades in the United States, Erika embraces slow living and has guided hundreds to heal from chronic conditions and fall in love with their lives.

Have you ever felt terrified of change… not just because life is shifting, but because you feel like you're shifting with it? I know that feeling well — and this week's conversation opened my heart and mind in such a profound way. In this week's episode of HEAL with Kelly, I sit down with Dr. Maya Shankar, a renowned cognitive scientist whose work sits at the intersection of identity, behavior, and human transformation. Maya is the Senior Director of Behavioral Economics at Google, the creator and host of the award-winning podcast A Slight Change of Plans, and the former Senior Policy Advisor in the Obama White House. She founded and chaired the White House Social and Behavioral Sciences Team and later became the first Behavioral Science Advisor to the United Nations. Maya's new book, The Other Side of Change, is a stunning blend of research and storytelling. In our conversation, we explore why change can feel so destabilizing, how our brains are wired to resist uncertainty, and what happens when the identities we've clung to suddenly fall away. Maya shares vulnerably about losing the violin career she spent her childhood building, and later, facing the grief and identity questions that came with unexpected challenges around motherhood. We also dive into some of the most fascinating ideas from her work — like why we mistakenly believe we're “done changing,” how awe and moral beauty can completely redirect our lives, and a simple 5-minute practice that can ground us when we feel unmoored. We talk about the stories we inherit, the ones we outgrow, and the courage it takes to imagine ourselves beyond old definitions. In a world where CHANGE is the only constant, Maya's work is a lighthouse. This conversation is honest, expansive, and full of insight. If you're navigating transition, grieving a path that didn't unfold, questioning your identity, or simply curious about who you're becoming… this episode is for you. Key Moments You'll Love ✨:
What if love wasn't just chemistry or chance but something you could actually measure? In this episode of The Greatness Machine, Darius Mirshahzadeh sits down with author and data analyst Zoey Charif to explore how love, attraction, and long term compatibility can be understood through data, self awareness, and values. Zoey shares the story behind her book “Love Can, in Fact, Be Calculated” and explains how she developed a values based framework to predict relationship success. She breaks down the concept of a “self score,” why admiration matters more than equality, and how misalignment in values quietly erodes relationships over time. Darius and Zoey also unpack the difference between values and trait preferences, why people are often drawn to familiar but destructive patterns, and how this framework can be used as a communication tool rather than a reason to walk away. In this episode, Darius and Zoey will discuss: (00:00) Introduction and Name Origins (02:46) Astrology and Self-Acceptance (05:49) Zoe's Journey to Understanding Love (08:40) The Concept of Calculating Love (14:09) Self-Assessment and Core Values (16:55) The Importance of Self-Score in Relationships (22:44) Navigating Aspirational Values (25:34) Generational Perspectives on Relationships (26:09) Generational Insights on Relationships (28:26) The Importance of Dependability and Reliability (31:02) Understanding Traits vs. Values in Relationships (34:27) The Challenge of Rewiring Attraction (37:47) Self-Awareness in Relationship Patterns (43:40) The Role of Humor in Attraction (49:19) Navigating Emotional Needs and Values Zoey Charif is the President of Business Plans USA, where she leads a team creating business plans, financial models, pitch decks, and market research for businesses of all sizes.

We have so much information about health, our bodies, and what will make us feel better, coming at us from every direction. If you're ready to finally hear the truth, this episode is for you. Today, host Heather Creekmore welcomes coaching client Tephanie, and Compared to Who? team member, Christian body image coach, Tara, for a moving conversation about finding real freedom from body image struggles. This episode dives into what it’s really like to join the 40-day Body Image Journey, take the next step into group coaching, and experience transformative, Christ-centered growth alongside women in all stages of life. What You’ll Hear in This Episode: Tephanie’s Story: Tephanie courageously shares how body image issues impacted her life for years—from feeling like the “heavier friend” as a child, to trying diets after marriage, and always believing thinness was the key to worth and happiness. The Power of Community: Listen as Tephanie describes overcoming her fears about group coaching, opening up in a safe space, and discovering that she wasn’t alone in her struggles. What Coaching Looks Like: Coach Tara explains how every woman shows up nervous, but together they create a sacred, honest place where transformation happens. Lasting Change: Tephanie reflects on how the journey shifted her mindset—from constant comparison and shame, to living with gratitude and serving as a positive role model for her family. Behind the Scenes: You’ll also get a peek into the structure of the coaching programs (the 40-day journey, Body Image Freedom Framework, Attunement Reset), how each builds on the last, and the real “magic” that’s only possible through Christ-centered community. Key Takeaways: There is no “magic formula” for body image freedom—true peace comes from seeing yourself as God sees you. You’re not alone; women of every age and stage struggle with body image, but healing happens in safe, supportive community. Change is possible, even if you’ve felt stuck for years—the journey may be ongoing, but God’s freedom is real and available for you, too.
