What if freedom isn't something we chase… but something we remember? In this episode, host Crystle Johnson sits down with Najma Ahmed, creator of the Free Black Girl podcast, to explore what it really means to be free.

What does and does not work when talking to evangelical Christians about LGBTQ issues? It can certainly be tough and frustrating. We are dealing with patriarchal, moral-majority driven false teaching. All taught with God's name attached to it – and grave consequences if you don't just fall in line. But we, like a growing number of people, were surprised when we opened that box we had God in. In this encore presentation, we talk about truly effective ways to change the hearts and minds of non-affirming Christians.Send us a private message. *Note: INCLUDE YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS if you'd like us to answer. :-) Support the show

I explore six powerful lessons from taking nearly three weeks completely unplugged from work, showing how presence, rhythm, and intentional boundaries can bring peace and clarity to life and business. This summer's three-week RV trip with my family changed me in ways I didn't expect. I unplugged more deeply than I ever have since starting my business in 2010, and it was a complete reset for my mind, body, and spirit. In this episode, I'm opening up about the powerful lessons I brought home from that stillness, things about trusting my body, honoring my natural rhythm, and letting go of what doesn't serve me. My hope is that you'll find inspiration to create your own space for rest and clarity, no matter how long you can step away. - Listen to your body: Pay attention to physical and emotional signals, they're guiding you toward alignment, not working against you. - Honor your natural rhythm: Protect the pace that fuels your best energy and creativity, making it non-negotiable in your schedule. - Recognize the life you already have: Notice the moments that feel like your dream life and intentionally create more of them now. - Let go of being everything to everyone: Release the urge to hold everything together for others and prioritize what supports you back. - Redesign your work habits: Set tech boundaries that protect your energy, like limiting email checks or removing autopilot social media scrolling.

Send me a text!Flexible routines for real life don't come from a one-size-fits-all approach — no matter what the countless books and “success” formulas claim. Everyone's life, capacity, and circumstances are different, and we all need space to account for how both direct and indirect events impact our time, energy, and priorities. Prescriptive systems that ignore this reality dismiss our lived experiences and fuel self-doubt. Instead of forcing yourself into someone else's mold, you deserve routines that honor your humanity, support your energy, and meet you where you are. What works for you today might not work next month, and that's okay. Structure and flexibility both have a role in building a system that works for you.In this replay episode, I explore how to create flexible routines for real life that still incorporate structure but in a way that allows you to adapt when life shifts without losing yourself in the process.Some of what I'll cover in this episode includes:How to bake flexibility into your plansDetermining routines that support youMeeting yourself where you're at in creating new habitsUnderstanding the relationship between time and energyExercises to assess where you're spending your energyIf you've been feeling stretched thin, scattered, or drained, this conversation will help you design a daily rhythm that supports you — not just your to-do list.LINKS FROM THIS EPISODE:Episode 7 – Can I Make Plans YetReclaim Your Routine Workshop SeriesCONNECT WITH VALERIE:Ask ValerieSign up for Valerie's newsletterSchedule an exploration call This podcast was produced by Valerie Friedlander CoachingProud member of the Feminist Podcasters CollectiveSupport the showSupport the show

If you're a cultural worker navigating the messy, magical middle ground of art and activism, who's taking care of you?Now, if you've been with us over the last two episodes, you'll know we've been tackling what we call the building blocks of effective community arts practice—those foundational elements that help artists not just make meaningful work, but do so in ways that are ethical, sustainable, and rooted in justice.In Episode 1, we explored Accountability: To whom, and for what, are we truly responsible in our work?In Episode 2, we examined Leadership: How do cultural workers lead without domination, and how do they grow others in the process?And today, we turn inward—to a topic that is as personal as it is political: self-care.Because the truth is, being a cultural activist is not just a calling—it's also exhausting. In this conversation, my partners-in-crime—artist and historian Leni Sloan and cultural organizer Barbara Shaffer Bacon—and I dive into the real and raw question: How do we sustain ourselves in this work?We'll talk about the material needs often left unmet—like housing, healthcare, childcare—and why self-care isn't just bubble baths, it's a structural necessity. We'll share stories about burnout, soul-feeding practices, and what it means to build and rely on an ecosystem of mutual care.And as always, we're not just reflecting—we're passing on what we've learned over a collective century of practice. So whether you're a parade leader, a prickly cactus, or a builder of the long tail, we hope this episode gives you room to breathe, reflect, and reimagine what sustainability can look like in the world of community-based art.Let's get into it.Great!

As you guys know i'm all about self care, throughout this conversation I touch on why it's so important to me and why we all need to make it a priority in our lives.

Welcome to Hot Topics! In this episode, host Gabrielle Crichlow talks with returning guest Brittany Gregorio, who shares her journey of leaving a stressful marketing career to pursue her true passion for yoga and energy healing. Brittany opens up about her experiences with burnout and how embracing her healing background became the key to her happiness.Brittany transitioned from being a marketing CEO to a yoga teacher and healer after experiencing severe burnout. While managing her marketing company, she faced overwhelming demands from clients, often working late nights to meet their needs. As a mother of three, including a child with special needs, balancing work and family was challenging and added to her stress.Initially, Brittany hesitated to hire help for her business due to her loyalty to her clients. A deep emotional awakening during a yoga class inspired her to take yoga and meditation more seriously. However, she faced criticism in the yoga industry regarding body image, which contributed to her feelings of inadequacy.As she continued in marketing, Brittany began dreaming of returning to yoga and meditation, growing increasingly resentful of her career. A turning point came during a train ride to a medical appointment with her son, where she experienced a mental breakdown while reading a book called "Dharma," which focuses on finding purpose.After stepping off the train, Brittany decided to leave her marketing career and informed her clients of her decision, which brought her immense relief. With her husband's financial and emotional support, she began building a construction and plumbing business with him while reestablishing her yoga practice. This journey highlights the importance of self-care, following one's true passion, and asking yourself, "Are you happy?"Tune in for insights on finding fulfillment and living authentically.Who is Brittany Gregorio?Brittany Gregorio is a former brand and marketing CEO turned soul-led healer, yoga teacher, and meditation guide. After experiencing deep burnout running a six-figure business, Brittany embarked on a journey back to herself — rediscovering purpose, peace, and her true dharma through yoga, meditation, and nervous system healing. Today, she creates transformative spaces for others to come home to themselves — whether through curvy-body-inclusive yoga classes, deeply healing Yoga Nidra sessions, or her signature Sacred Rage Release experiences. Brittany's work is rooted in radical self-connection, nervous system nourishment, and the belief that awakening to your truth is what heals the world.You can find Brittany: On the web: https://www.brittanyannyoga.com/ On Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/brittany.gregorio85 On Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/brittany.gregorio/ On Threads: https://www.threads.com/@brittany.gregorioWatch this episode on YouTube: https://youtube.com/live/MguSK1r9Ya8Rate this episode on IMDB: TBA********************************************Follow Gabrielle Crichlow:On Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/gabrielle.crichlow On Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/gabrielle.crichlowOn LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/gabrielle-crichlow-92587a360Follow A Step Ahead Tutoring Services:On Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/astepaheadtutoringservicesOn Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/astepaheadtutoringservicesOn X: https://www.x.com/ASATS2013On LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/a-step-ahead-tutoring-services/On YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@astepaheadtutoringservicesOn TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@asats2013On Eventbrite: https://astepaheadtutoringservices.eventbrite.comVisit us on the web: https://www.astepaheadtutoringservices.comSign up for our email list: https://squareup.com/outreach/a41DaE/subscribeSign up for our text list: https://eztxt.s3.amazonaws.com/534571/widgets/61fc686d8d6665.90336120.htmlCheck out our entire "Hot Topics!" podcast: https://www.astepaheadtutoringservices.com/hottopicspodcastSupport us:Cash App: https://cash.app/$ASATS2013PayPal: https://paypal.me/ASATS2013Venmo: https://venmo.com/u/ASATS2013Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/hot-topics--5600971/support Original date of episode: May 22, 2025

Welcome back to Ditch the Labcoat with Dr. Mark Bonta! In this episode, we dive into the world of burnout—what it really looks like, how it creeps into even the most resilient among us, and, most importantly, what we can do to prevent it. Dr. Mark sits down with Dr. Judy Wright, a physician, performance strategist, burnout survivor, and the founder of JW Health Consulting. Dr. Wright brings a unique blend of medical expertise and personal experience to the conversation, sharing hard-won insights and practical tools that go beyond the surface-level “self-care” advice.From the silent lessons learned in medical school anatomy labs to the coping strategies (and comical dinner table conversations) that help healthcare workers weather the toughest shifts, Mark and Judy unpack what it really means to build resilience in high-stress environments. But these lessons aren't just for doctors and nurses. Whether you're managing a team, running a classroom, or simply juggling daily life, you'll find actionable advice—from five-minute reset techniques to the importance of building a support network before you desperately need one.Get ready for a candid, insightful, and wide-ranging conversation that will challenge you to rethink your approach to stress, burnout, and what it means to truly look after yourself at work and beyond.Episode HighlightsProactively Build Support Systems – Don't wait for crisis—establish a network of support inside and outside work to safeguard mental health and resilience.Normalize Emotional Boundaries – Healthcare workers are taught to compartmentalize; this is protective but needs healthy awareness to prevent detachment or apathy.Coping Skills Should Be Taught – Resilience and compartmentalization should be addressed directly in training, not just absorbed by osmosis or workplace culture.Talking Helps Heal Trauma – Debriefing difficult experiences with colleagues, friends, or professionals significantly boosts emotional processing and resilience.Early Self-Awareness Is Critical – Recognizing feelings of overwhelm or burnout early on is the best prevention, allowing intervention before serious harm is done.Burnout Is a Slow Erosion – It's not sudden; burnout creeps in gradually. Regular self-checks and honest reflection prevent it from taking root.Self-Care Is Individualized – Effective self-care goes beyond popular trends; it must be meaningful and restorative specifically for you.Small Pauses Make a Difference – Taking even a five-minute break—for breath work, movement, hydration, or reflection—can disrupt stress accumulation.Burnout Affects All Life Areas – Professional burnout inevitably spills into personal life, impacting thinking, relationships, and daily functioning.You Can Reinvent Your Career – There are multiple fulfilling paths beyond traditional clinical roles. If the current job isn't right, change is possible.Episode Timestamps 06:02 – Adapting to Cadaver Work 09:05 – Healthcare Workers' Emotional Challenges 10:03 – Emotional Detachment and Coping Mechanisms 13:16 – Debriefing's Role in Mental Health 17:02 – Early Healthcare Career Challenges 19:44 – Balancing Emotions in Medical Training 25:50 – Work-Life Interconnection Dynamics 29:33 – Importance of Building a Support System 30:18 – Integrating Self-Care with Work 34:30 – Exploring Diverse Medical Careers 39:30 – Prioritize Individualized Self-Care 40:54 – Authentic Self-Care Beyond Mani-Pedis 43:29 – Self-Care for Post-Work Recharge 47:40 – Workplace Energy and Self-Assessment 51:10 – Grounding Techniques for Resilience

[43:20]   Sonia C. and Sonia T. are swapping hilarious self-care horror stories this week! In an attempt to offer self-love, sometimes we find ourselves in situations that are memorable for all the wrong reasons. The vibes around us might be off, but that doesn't mean we have to lose touch with our spirit and our intuition. We can still choose joy and love in any situation!    As intutitives, we have a call to approach the world with kindness and compassion. The answers may not always be clearly laid out, but when we take time for self-care and self-love and to listen to our intuition, the answers will come.

“Self-care is the beginning of a path to hope.” - Micky Beaton When life feels chaotic, self-care is usually the first thing to go (if it was even there in the first place). But for those of us living with fibromyalgia, that's when you need it the most. Deprioritizing the practices and tools that help you feel your best will lead to fibro flares, more pain, and less energy, making it even harder to keep up. Self-care doesn't have to be complicated, expensive, or time-consuming. It doesn't have to be treating yourself to something extravagant. At the core, self-care is about prioritizing your health and your body and treating yourself the way you'd treat someone you love. It means listening to your body, making small, deliberate choices that support your well-being, and letting go of the guilt that often comes with putting yourself first. When you make yourself one of your “favorite people,” you create the best chance for you to have a better quality of life. Today, Tami is joined by Certified Fibromyalgia Coach® Micky Beaton to talk about how you can create a reliable self-care routine that is sustainable and fits into your life. Micky was diagnosed with fibromyalgia over 20 years ago and spent many of the years since searching for answers. Recognizing that there were many other people out there with fibromyalgia who needed the right support, Micky joined the Certified Fibromyalgia Advisor® and then Certified Fibromyalgia Coach® training programs. In this conversation, Tami and Micky explore Micky's diagnosis experience and early struggles with fibromyalgia, the push-crash cycle she found herself stuck in for a long time, her path to life coaching, further education, and discovering fibromyalgia coaching, why what works for one person may not work for another, finding positives in chronic illness, Micky's ongoing learning and passion for coaching, her experience of mutual growth with clients since becoming a Certified Fibromyalgia Coach®, how coaching helps clients maintain self-care and accountability, creating flexible self-care plans, what self-care really means, myths about self-care, the connection between independence and community, practical tips for delegating and overcoming perfectionism, the importance of building a support team, the pillars of self-care, why you should be having conversations with yourself, how self-care became Micky's passion, how self-care supports medical treatments and calms the nervous system, where to start with self-care without feeling overwhelmed, how to fit self-care into already busy lives, why it's important to begin with easy actions and celebrate small wins, why you should trust in the process and stay hopeful, and more.       Note: This episode is not meant to be medical advice.

In this very first episode of my You First series, we're flipping the script on what it means to be a man in today's world. I sit down with two incredible guests, Adam Allred and Travis Prince, to have an honest, unfiltered conversation about something men rarely talk about: self-care.This isn't about bubble baths and face masks (though there's nothing wrong with those). This is about learning how to truly show up for ourselves, mentally, physically, and emotionally, so we can show up better for the people we love. Adam, with his grounded wisdom, and Travis, with his raw, lived experience, open up about their own journeys, the struggles, the breakthroughs, and the habits that keep them grounded.We talk about the quiet weight men carry, the pressure to be “strong” at all costs, and why prioritising yourself is not selfish, it's essential. If you've ever felt burnt out, disconnected, or like you're just going through the motions, this conversation is a reminder: your needs matter too.Men's self-care isn't a luxury. It's survival. And it starts here, with you first.Key Moments:0:00 Why Men's Self-Care Matters6:08 Adam's Turning Point10:45 Travis on Hitting Burnout20:41 Habits That Keep Them Balanced31:52 “You Can't Pour From an Empty Cup”42:18 Finding Brotherhood and Support as Men53:47 The Power of Vulnerability in Male Friendships1:02:16 Overcoming the Fear of Being Judged1:15:09 How Faith and Spirituality Influence Self-Care1:24:18 A Challenge to Put Yourself First1:32:47 Building a Life You Don't Need to Escape From1:37:12 “It's Not Selfish, It's Survival”Guests Info:IG: @‌adamallredofficial (https://www.instagram.com/adamallredofficial/?hl=en)IG: @‌travis_prince (https://www.instagram.com/travis_prince/?hl=en)-Where to find Tyler Hall: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tylerchall/ Newsletter: https://www.linkedin.com/newsletters/the-tyler-hall-archives-7018241874482122753/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/sirTHALL Work with Tyler: https://www.tylerchristianhall.com/

Unfortunately, it isn't always easy.In this episode of Delivering Adventure, Sarah Janin returns to share a story of a time where she inadvertently neglected her self-care which led to some fairly serious consequences. This leads into a great discussion around some of the obstacles around practicing good self-care for us and the people that we may be leading.Sarah is a certified American Mountain Guide Association (AMGA) Rock and Split Board Guide and an assistant AMGA Alpine Guide. Sarah is on the final leg of working towards becoming the first IFMGA certified Mountain Guide who has type 1 diabetes.

This is a fantastic conversation.Key InsightsWhat are some of the obstacles to practicing good self-care and how can we avoid them:Common Self-Care Obstacles: Cost, pressure to prioritize service to others ahead of safety to us, and embarrassment as we may be holding others up.Macho Attitude: This is where we or the people we are leading may believe we can handle the consequences of not looking after ourselvesRecognizing Experience as an Obstacle: If we are inexperienced or younger, we may may not appreciate the long-term effects of not practicing good self-care.Projection Bias: This is where it becomes difficult to predict how we might feel based on how we are feeling in the moment. This can also be a reason why we do not prioritize self-care.Prioritizing Self-Care: Recognizing that self-care needs to be a necessary part of our day that needs to be prioritized. This is really step one. Being disciplined and holding ourselves accountable can help with this.Importance of Routine: Following a routine can be extremely beneficial – of note is that one danger sign of neglecting our self-care is when we break from our routine.Guest BioSarah Janin is a full-time mountain guide at Colorado Mountain School located in Boulder Colorado.

  In this episode of Tales from The Lane, Kate takes a candid look at a growing trend: using self-care and boundaries as default reasons to opt out of opportunities, connection, and growth. While the movement to prevent burnout was born out of necessity—helping leaders, parents, and professionals stretched impossibly thin—somewhere along the way, it became a lifestyle brand. And now, more and more early-career professionals are declining every extra task, gig, or invitation in the name of “protecting their peace,” only to find themselves feeling disconnected and unfulfilled. Kate explores: Why self-care and boundaries matter (and where the movement started) How the pendulum has swung too far in the opposite direction How saying yes (even when it feels inconvenient) can build skills, networks, and community What the most fulfilled, high-achieving people do differently If you've been wondering how to balance protecting your time with showing up fully for your life and your community, this conversation will help you reframe what it means to be both intentional and engaged.

Psalm 34:18 Though my father and mother forsake me, the Lord will receive me. Psalm 27:10 Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves receive from God. 2 Corinthians 1:3–4 Jesus went through all the towns and villages, teaching in their synagogues, proclaiming the good news of the kingdom and healing every disease and sickness. Matthew 9:35 He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds.
