One thing far too many parents have in common is that they are always putting off taking care of themselves. This may come from a good place, but the results are good for no one.

Kerry is the author of the children's book Somewhere, Right Now, and also recently published her memoir, Selfish, about rebelling against meeting other people's needs, and instead focusing on meeting her own.In this conversation, we discussed how becoming a writer has always been Kerry's dream, why she compares writing a memoir to an archaeological dig, how putting yourself first can be a gift to other people, how it feels to reclaim the word “selfish”, how writing Selfish affected her husband and their marriage, and how to deal with blowback in a world that tells women to be small.Connect with Kerry: Instagram | LinkedIn | Website | Buy her booksIf you're looking to unleash your potential, find your personal, professional, or political fire, and to connect with a community who is doing the same, click here to learn more.

When was the last time you were completely alone - with nobody touching you, talking to you or needing something from you?In this episode, Zoe explores why so many mothers crave alone time and why that need isn't selfish - it's essential. If you've ever felt overwhelmed, overstimulated, touched out, exhausted or guilty for wanting space from your children, this episode will help you understand what's really happening in your mind and body.Zoe unpacks the psychology of modern motherhood, the invisible mental load, emotional labour and the impact they have on a mother's nervous system. She explores why highly sensitive mothers and introverted mothers often experience overwhelm more intensely, how overstimulation can lead to burnout, resentment and mum rage, and why rest is not a luxury but a necessity.You'll learn why guilt so often accompanies the need for space, how cultural expectations of motherhood keep women trapped in cycles of self-sacrifice, and how protecting even small moments of solitude can help you become a calmer, more present and more connected parent.If you've ever wondered why you feel constantly needed, emotionally drained or like you've lost yourself in motherhood, this episode is for you.

What if the same conditioning that teaches women to abandon themselves in life is also showing up in the bedroom? In this fascinating and often hilarious conversation, Valerie sits down with intimacy expert Susan Bratton to explore what happens when women reclaim their desire, their pleasure, and their right to experience the full spectrum of who they are.

Most people use moderation as a reason to keep doing what they are doing. Dr. Columbus Batiste says that is exactly the mindset that can have lasting health implications. In this episode of NHA Today, Dr. Stephan Esser sits down with Dr. Columbus Batiste, board-certified interventional cardiologist, author, and co-founder of Healthy Heart Nation. Known as the Healthy Heart Doc, Dr. Batiste has spent his career doing what most cardiologists do not: asking patients not just what they eat, but what they eat for their health - and then building a plan around what they actually want. His personal story is the backbone of this conversation. His father was health-conscious, ran a health food store, and juiced long before it was fashionable - but also loved sodasand sweets in moderation. He died from the effects of diabetes. Reading Caldwell Esselstyn's chapter titled Moderation Kills changed the course of Dr. Batiste's career. In this conversation you will learn:• Why moderation is a justification we only apply to things we know we should not be doing• The three most heart-protective food groups and why they work at the cellular level• How to talk to patients (or yourself) about food in a way that actually creates change• The SELFISH acronym: seven pillars of heart health from spirituality to humor• Why 80% of health outcomes happen outside the doctor's office• The role of stress, presence, and relationships in cardiovascular disease• Dr. Batiste's take on AI in medicine and what an elderly patient said that stopped him cold• What he is bringing to the NHA Annual Conference this June ---ABOUT DR. COLUMBUS BATISTE---Columbus Batiste, MD is a board-certified interventional cardiologist, co-founder of Healthy Heart Nation, and author of Selfish: A Cardiologist's Guide to Curing a Stressed and Broken Heart. He is the Regional Chief of Cardiology for Southern California Permanente Medical Group and a celebrity media contributor featured in documentaries, articles, and podcasts worldwide. He will be speaking at the NHA Annual Conference, June 25 to 28, 2026. ---LINKS AND RESOURCES---Full episode and show notes: Subscribe: https://www.healthscience.org/podcast/NHA Annual Conference (June 25 to 28, 2026): https://checkout.healthscience.org/2026-nha-conferenceDr. Batiste's website: https://drbatiste.comFollow Dr. Batiste on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/healthyheartdoc/Dr. Batiste on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/drbatiste/Book - Selfish: A Cardiologist's Guide: [add purchase link]Follow Dr. Esser on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/esserhealth/
Paul has been asked a question about eating meat that has been sacrificed to idols. In his response to the church at Corinth, he keeps bringing up their “Superior knowledge” about the subject at hand. Jews would have God's law concerning which food to eat and not eat, while the Gentiles didn't have any laws and ate whatever they wanted. Paul is comparing the stronger believer to the weaker believer and he tells the stronger believer that can't do whatever they want concerning eating this meat because it may cause the weaker believer to fall into sin! Then he really lowers the boom when he tells them that they should be showing God's love to the weaker believer which is a unconditional love.

Send us Fan MailA parasite that lays eggs in wounds and eats living tissue sounds like something from a horror movie, but it is real and it is making headlines right now. We break down the New World screw worm outbreak in Texas, what it does to animals, and why ranchers and veterinarians treat it as an urgent livestock health emergency. We also talk through the bigger picture: how infestations spread through everyday cuts and bites, why wildlife can make control harder, and how trade disruptions can turn a regional outbreak into a North American economic shockwave.Then we switch gears to pet science with a deceptively simple animal behavior study that asks a great question: will your pet help you without being asked? Researchers hid a boring object like a dish sponge, offered zero rewards, and watched what happened when a familiar human “struggled” to find it. Dogs often step in like toddlers, pointing out the location or retrieving it, while cats tend to watch closely and decide it is not their problem unless there is something in it for them. We unpack what that says about prosocial behavior, domestication, and why “helping” is not the same thing as intelligence.Our guest is Dr. Laci Brock of Stellar Arts, an astrophysicist who turned her science communication skills into a full-time space art business. Lacey shares how she builds multispectral paintings using real telescope imagery across wavelengths (think Hubble plus James Webb Space Telescope), what it takes to produce high-quality limited edition fine art prints, and how viral moments like “Meteor Geese” and her Artemis mini paintings sparked real “moon joy” online. We also get candid about generative AI, artist consent, copyright, and why the conversation is bigger than just aesthetics.Dr. Brock's Art Page!Our Links!Support the showFor Science, Empathy, and Cuteness!Being Kind is a Superpower.All our social links are here!

Brittany, author of SELF-ISH is the New SELFLESS, challenges traditional views of self-care and redefines what it truly means to put yourself first. She shares valuable insights on setting healthy boundaries, embracing self-reflection, and becoming the best version of yourself so you can show up more fully in your relationships and daily life. Brittany — author of SELF-ISH is the new SELFLESS — redefines what it truly means to put yourself first, set healthy boundaries, and show up fully in your relationships.

In this episode, we cover: • When therapy is necessary — even if you don't have a mental health diagnosis • How to find your “best self” through self-reflection and intentional living • Why adult friendships require a totally different approach than childhood ones • The hidden symptoms of depression most people overlook (including guilt) • How to choose the right therapist for your specific life situation • Why AI chatbots can't replace real human therapy • How to identify your personal warning signs before mental health becomes a crisis

Send us Fan MailYou already know you should speak up. That's not the problem. The problem is the moment arrives, your mouth opens, and nothing useful comes out. So you drop a hint instead and hope they catch it. They don't. And you add it to the pile.Last week we talked about being an asker versus an assumer, and the response was huge. But it exposed something: knowing you need to ask and knowing how to ask are two completely different skills. Almost nobody teaches the second one. So we're bringing back the episode that does.I tell the story I don't love telling: growing up watching my mom, a wise, loving woman who never learned to advocate for herself, and how I walked straight into a 13-year marriage where I had no voice either. Tom shares the eerily similar story of his own mother. This isn't a women's thing. If you've ever gone quiet to keep the peace, this is about you.Here's some of what we get into:Why something this simple makes your armpits sweat and your knees buckle. The four reasons we stay silent, and why every single one is really you rejecting yourself before your partner ever gets the chance. How "being considerate" quietly turns into manipulation: the hints, the guilt, the withholding, the spin so they can't say no. And the part most people get wrong, the difference between a sincere ask and a demand that comes down to a handful of words.Then we walk through the actual framework, the same one we teach couples every day. Ask for what you want at 100 percent, not the watered-down version. There's a specific way to open it, a specific thing to do right after you ask that almost everyone skips, and one line that changes everything: "Would you be willing?"And the truth underneath all of it. The second you ask, you've already won, even if the answer is no. We explain why, and it has nothing to do with getting your way.One more thing. There's a question we deliberately don't answer in this episode: what happens when you've asked, clearly and kindly, again and again, and nothing changes? That's where we're going next week. Listen to this one first, because it's the setup for everything that comes after.Links and resources:Take the quiz: betterlovequiz.com (10 minutes, find out which of the four skills is costing you the most)Conversation Cards for Connection: https://stacibartley.com/cardsLove isn't enough, but skills are.

Do you believe that self-care is selfish? For a lot of Christian women, that question hits close to home. If you've spent most of your life believing that caring for yourself meant you were putting yourself before God or others, this episode will shift that mindset. This kicks off a 5-part Summer Self-Care Series where every episode gives you real, practical ways to care for your body... including gentle detox tips you can start right away...without taking a spa day every so often or complicated daily routines. But before we get into the practical, we have to get into the foundational. Because if you believe self-care is selfish, no wellness strategy will stick. So we're going straight to Scripture and looking at what God actually says about loving and caring for yourself versus what the world has twisted it to mean. Grab your Bible and journal!

Most parents want their children to be able to chase their dreams, and they often do all they can to build a place of possibility for their kids to go and be successful. This week, we’re talking about what it means to create a home where anything is possible, but that goal comes with a positive version and a negative version. The Bible speaks to both. Scripture is full of advice for parents and children. It contains encouragements and warnings, ways to live and ways not to live, things to do and things not to do. This is not a message about creating the perfect home because there isn’t one of those; it’s about the atmosphere that we create inside our homes and the impact of the choices we make.
This one was recorded on a window ledge at the Millcroft Inn, still wrapped in the softest robe, fresh off my second annual Creating Space retreat with eight incredible physician humans.The theme that kept surfacing all weekend? Being selfish: the word we were all using to explain why we couldn't possibly take up space, rest, or honor what we actually want.In this episode, I dig into where "selfish" actually comes from (spoiler: 17th-century Scottish Presbyterians, and yes, it's exactly as patriarchal as it sounds) and why every choice we make is technically selfish… even people-pleasing.So if we're all being selfish anyway, the real question is: which kind do you want to practice?Learn more about Hippocratic Collective: https://hippocraticcollective.org/Connect on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/joanchanmd

In this podcast, I challenge the popular belief that selflessness is always the highest virtue. I explain why focusing on your own growth, skills, health, confidence, and financial stability can often create a far greater impact on society than sacrificing your potential too early.Instead of spending all your time trying to save others, what if you first invested in becoming stronger, more capable, and more successful? A person who has built wealth, knowledge, influence, and character is often in a much better position to support meaningful causes, donate generously, and create lasting change.This episode explores the balance between self-improvement and social responsibility, why personal growth is not selfishness, and how becoming the best version of yourself can ultimately help more people in the long run.If you are struggling with guilt about prioritizing your own goals, this conversation may give you a fresh perspective.
Hey, it's Amy Newmark with your Chicken Soup for the Soul and we have a new book I'm very passionate about. It's all about how Self-Care Isn't Selfish. That's because self-care is not optional. It's a necessary, powerful commitment to making yourself a priority. And it also means learning how to stick up for yourself. Sometimes we don't do that. We are trying to be nice, or we can't initially believe that someone IS NOT treating us right, so we let it slide, and then it kind of becomes the official way that relationship is going to be.

Does your husband seem to only think about himself? Does it feel like you're the only adult in the house managing everything while he coasts along? If you've been waiting for him to just step up and care a little more, this episode is for you. I'm sharing three practices that will get you more help, more consideration and a husband who genuinely goes out of his way for you. None of them involve complaining, fighting or telling him what he should do. One of these practices is the same one that turned my own husband from the man eating Oreos on the couch while I cleaned up everything—into the man who now does the dishes, the laundry and takes care of the cars. Stay until the end for my Worst Relationship Advice of the Week Award—this week's winner sounds like a power move and it is the fastest way to push him further away. You've been waiting for him to change for long enough. After this episode, you won't have to wait anymore. Download the FREE Adored Wife Roadmap now and start transforming your relationship today!

Desire isn't selfish.It's sacred direction. How is that for a truth bomb This is all according to Marianne Iverson and I wholeheartedly agree. So wanting something, wanting more is actually a good thing. We are made by a Creator to create. Our brain is designed to solve problems and we get to use it for that purpose which is for our pleasure while it brings meaning to us, and hopefully serves others. Marianne is inspired by Coach Jody Moore who has taught Marianne to be open to these possibilities, to understand that if you desire it, you can create it.Marianne is our guest this week for Permission to Want More: What's Next and What's Left.

Spiritual students who who pour themselves out for everyone else, then feel a flicker of guilt the moment they pause to care for themselves. They say yes when they're already running low. When they finally rest, a quiet voice calls it selfish. For anyone walking a spiritual path, the line between devotion and depletion blurs fast, and most of us were taught to honor the wrong side of it. Joined by author Alan Cohen, Jennifer Hadley turns to A Course in Miracles to question a belief so familiar that ACIM students rarely notice they're living by it.

I didn't know Kerry's name until a few weeks ago, when I, thankfully, caught wind of her soon-to-be-released memoir, Selfish. After reading a brief description of the book, I pre-ordered it and tore through the pages in a week.Kerry is not just the writer, but the founder of the beloved clothing brand, Faherty. While I adore the brand's pieces hanging in my closet, I'd say I'm even more thrilled to have a dog-eared copy of Kerry's book tucked in my bookshelves. Much is written about marriage these days, but few books pull back the veil with such raw honesty. While Kerry's book is largely a story of self-discovery, personal evolution, and what it looks like for us (as women) to live into our fullest selves, the picture she paints of her marriage is a true gift.For anyone, at any stage of the relationship journey, I cannot recommend this book enough.Work with me PrivatelyConnect on InstagramWebsitePodcast Production by James Jorge

Recover Your Soul: A Spiritual Path to a Happy and Healthy Life
For so many of us, saying no can feel almost unbearable. We want everyone to be okay, and somewhere along the way we learned that keeping the peace often meant abandoning ourselves.But there comes a moment on this journey where something inside says… this doesn't feel right anymore.In this episode, we continue the conversation around helping versus enabling and move into the sacred work of boundaries. Not boundaries as punishment or control, but boundaries as clarity, self-respect, and learning how to come home to yourself.Through the Recover Your Soul process, we begin to recognize the patterns and beliefs that taught us we were responsible for everyone else's feelings. We start learning how to trust our own inner knowing, stop overexplaining ourselves, and make choices that align with who we are becoming.Choosing yourself is not selfish. It's sacred, and so is setting healthy boundaries.This work can feel uncomfortable, especially when old relationships and patterns push back. But there is also freedom and peace that comes when you stop abandoning yourself in order to keep everyone else comfortable.You are allowed to have needs.You are allowed to say no.You are allowed to choose yourself with love.Together, we can do the work that will Recover Your Soul.Send a one way text to Rev Rachel

Not getting a good night's sleep can certainly leave you feeling grumpy and groggy, but can it also make you selfish? Sleep experts at the University of California, Berkeley certainly seem to think so, and apparently even losing just one hour of sleep is enough to make you less generous towards others and that includes friends and family. The team conducted a number experiments which were published in the open-access journal. Over 100 participants were asked to fill out sleep diaries over four days - including how long they slept and if their sleep was interrupted then answer an ‘altruism questionnaire' with questions like: “would you help if a stranger stopped to ask for directions while you were in a rush to get to work”. What were the results? What impact could this have? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions! To listen to the last episodes, you can click here: How does daylight saving affect your health?

Hey, it's Amy Newmark with your Chicken Soup for the Soul and we have a new book I'm very passionate about. It's all about how Self-Care Isn't Selfish. That's because self-care is not optional. It's a necessary, powerful commitment to making yourself a priority. And it also means learning how to stick up for yourself. Sometimes we don't do that. We are trying to be nice, or we can't initially believe that someone IS NOT treating us right, so we let it slide, and then it kind of becomes the official way that relationship is going to be.

This week we're diving into Selfish, the raw and revealing memoir by Kerry Faherty, mother and co-founder of Faherty Brand. We unpack radical honesty, telling the full truth about your life without people pleasing, and the tension that comes with being fully seen. Including why sharing your truth can upset people, and how to navigate that discomfort in relationships. We explore reclaiming the word “selfish” as a tool for self worth and aliveness, the burnout of overgiving, and what happens when you lose yourself trying to keep everyone else happy. We also get into self reflection, living more expansively, and the cycle of wounding and healing in relationships. Everything we LOVE talking about!
