You get super jelly that your partner gets to have extra time off work, so you say (in a snarky-ass tone), “Wow. Must be nice to have so much free time”. Or maybe a work group you're a part of is trying to decide how to handle a specific project and instead of voicing your true thoughts you say, “We can certainly do it your way” and mutter under you breath, “And good fucking luck with that.”  What we have here, folks, are two examples of the Passive-Aggressive Communication Style. Everyone's fav. But, even though we find it infuriating, many of us do it ourselves aaaaaall the time. If you weren't properly taught how to advocate for your own wants, needs, and opinions [spoiler: none of us were], it's likely that you find yourself falling into one of the less-than-effective communication styles. Research has shown that there are four main communication styles: passive, aggressive, passive-aggressive (#guilty), and assertive. Fifty points if you can figure out which one is most effective. Yup, Assertive. But, if you're like most, you probably dip your toes in a bit of the other three. And, you certainly are not alone. In this episode, part two of two, I take a deep dive into the Passive-Aggressive and Assertive communication styles. I cover off what they typically sound like, what their go-to tactics are, what to do if you communicate this way, and what to do if you're engaging with someone who employs the Passive-Aggressive style. Be sure to have a pen and paper handy as I spell out specific verbiage and phrases you can use… like, yesterday. This pod explores: My absolute favorite tactic in calling someone out (without royally pissing them off) when they are being Passive-Aggressive How to untangle your own go-to Passive-Aggressive tendencies and what to say instead What to do if your entire family system relies on being Passive-Aggressive to communicate My favorite Assertive go-to phrases to use when you need (and want) to be clear, kind, and concise   HIRE ME TO SPEAK AT YOUR EVENT!

This week's episode of IMPACT is one for the books! It combines interviews with two of Meghan Walker's previous guests whose insight and knowledge surrounding mindset and self-authorization is astounding.    Dr. Shyamala Kiru, a registered psychotherapist and family and couple therapist works in particular with high-performing, high achieving women and mothers who are juggling multiple roles and identities. She discusses with Meghan that to navigate our relationships and improve our quality of life we must master our ability to communicate assertively. When each person in a relationship is responsive and not reactive, where they can make choices from an informed and self-regulated place, the relationship will thrive. When we access our emotional intelligence we have the capacity for incredible impact.    David Bayer, a motivational coach, digital entrepreneur and author of MindHack.com is one of the emerging thought leaders in the evolution of mindset. He believes that using your mind to rewire and reorganize the brain is the linchpin of human evolution. There are two states of being – powerful and primal. Powerful states include happiness, joy, calm and curiosity. Stress, anxiety, overwhelm and fear being primal states. If we give ourselves permission to feel good enough, then we exist in the powerful state. The fears diminish and happiness and abundance rule, giving us the opportunity to have a greater impact in the world. Live in your joy, calm and peace to have that powerful living experience.   We need to identify the things we can control and the things we can't, and take radical responsibility for our own happiness and mindset. The journey is about knowing yourself at a deeper level and removing the resistance that's there in the form of thinking so that you can decide to do something new moving forward.    Appropriately enough, what each conversation boils down to is that self-authorization and a healthy mindset leave room for impact. If you're ready to see the lies in the untruth that you've been telling yourself then this is an episode you cannot afford to miss.    Tune in now and get ready to take responsibility for your mindset and happiness!     KEY TAKEAWAYS [2:11] Background of Shyamala [4:45] Background of David [11:24] Shyamala's struggles being a new mom [13:19] David's two states of being: powerful and primal [15:52] Why we need to take radical responsibility for our own mindset [26:30] One of the biggest sources of stress conflict in couples [30:04] The psycho cybernetic loop [35:05] How to change the experiences of your life [41:48] Positioning your business in the marketplace     HOW TO CONNECT WITH OUR GUESTS https://powerfullivingexperience.com/ https://www.davidbayer.com https://www.instagram.com/davidbayer33/?hl=en https://www.facebook.com/coachdavidbayer/ https://kiruwellness.com/ https://www.instagram.com/iam.drshyam/ https://mobile.twitter.com/shyamalakiru https://www.facebook.com/dr.shyamalak https://twitter.com/shyamalakiru?lang=en     MEMORABLE QUOTES “I have seen time and time again the correlation between our ability to really master our mindset, our ability to communicate assertively or communicate with confidence and how that really feeds into our ability to navigate our relationships well.” Dr. Shyamala Kiru   “We are focused on helping as many people in their personal suffering as possible so that we can collectively create the future of the world that we all share.” David Bayer   “This next evolution of personal growth, which is defined as utilizing the mind to rewire and reorganize the brain, is the linchpin of the evolution of the entire human species.” David Bayer   “When we're in rest and reconnection and recharging, that's when we're connected to inspiration and creativity and flow states and an intelligence that is greater than ourselves.” David Bayer   “The only two things we can control are what we think and what we do.” Dr. Shyamala Kiru   “When we look at the couple's system, it is actually strongest when each individual is executing at their fullest potential. So when each individual partner is executing in a way where they have a hold of their mindset, where they're really able to be responsive and not reactive, where they're really able to make choices from an informed and self-regulated place, that is when relationships are at their strongest.” Dr. Shyamala Kiru   “In my opinion, we can't talk about relationship strategies, whether it's parenting or whether it's around intimacy, unless we talk about the mindset piece.” Dr. Shyamala Kiru   “We need to take radical responsibility for our mindset and own happiness because if we don't do that we can't be there for our kids, we can't navigate our relationships and we certainly can't show up as our professional selves.”  Dr. Shyamala Kiru   “Your thoughts are an extension of your core beliefs. And then you experience those thoughts as feelings. So your beliefs produce your thoughts, your thoughts you experience as feelings. Those feelings motivate or demotivate action or activity. And the action and activity produce results. And then those results reinforce the core belief. And so this is referred to as  a psycho cybernetic loop.” David Bayer   “That whole journey is about coming to know thyself at a deeper level and removing any of the resistance that's there in the form of thinking and seeing the lies in the untruth that you've been telling yourself while knowing that you can decide something new moving forward.” David Bayer

What if I told you great intimacy was fully possible for you… even if you're totally single. Wait… what!? I know, I know. Here's the deal, my friend: intimacy is so often seen through only a sexual or romantic lens, but intimacy is simply about deeply, truly knowing. Seeing. Hearing. Understanding someone deeply. And, that means you can have a fully intimate relationship with yourself. With or without deep love from another. And, that doesn't have to mean you don't desire love from someone else. You can have a rich relationship with yourself AND desire a connected relationship with a romantic partner. This week on the show, I'm dialing up an expert on the subject of intimacy. My dear friend and colleague, Allana Pratt joins me to discuss the way our society glorifies partnership at a great cost (as in, I'll be happy and worthy as long as I'm partnered), how to cultivate an intimate relationship with yourself, and how our major barrier to intimacy is our resistance to vulnerability. (Not to mention that vulnerability is touted as weakness in our culture and in many families of origin.) Allana shares the pivotal childhood moment when her father, irritated with her childlike play, punched a hole in the wall imprinting the message that men are dangerous, can't be trusted, and she must twist and contort herself to be found valuable in a suitor's eyes. We discuss how much emotional intelligence has to do with thriving in a relationship, whether romantic or otherwise, and the steps you can take to open yourself up to intimacy (without feeling freaked-the-fuck out). If you tend to avoid your emotions rather than feel them, grab a pen and paper, friend, because this one is gooooood. This pod explores: What intimacy even is and why it's related to every single relationship we have… even the one with ourselves Knowing when you can share your story and when it may not be safe to do so Understanding the connection between intimacy and vulnerability and the reason why they can both be so fucking uncomfortable Why we run from our emotional self and try to fix everything instead of feel our way through it (and how to shift that) HIRE ME TO SPEAK AT YOUR EVENT!

Do you overreact? Try and guess what your partner will say next? Do you withdraw over conflict? Do you vocalise your desires? Dr. Shyamala Kiru knew she had a book inside her. She sat down and thought about what was really (and we mean really) getting in the way of her female clients from excelling in their relationships, careers, and lives. She has written the book we all need. The book teaches us the skills we need to level up.  The skills of emotional intelligence.  With her debut book hitting stores this month, Shyamala and I share a deep conversation about our paths towards working on our emotional intelligence. We both share personal stories about our paths, describe practical tips for navigating hard conversations, and will leave you feeling like your emotional intelligence is something you can shape - regardless of the patterns you were modeled in your life so far.  You can grab a copy of Dr. Shyamala's book here, or wherever books are sold.

Dr. Shyamala Kiru works with high-powered women who experience great success in their professional lives, yet can struggle to bring the same confidence, competency and calm into their personal relationships. Prior to her shift into the coaching space, Dr. Shyamala spent 20 years as a practicing psychotherapist, where she discovered a distinct correlation between women experiencing mental health distress and relationship distress. She has since found in her own life, as well as with her patients, that making mindset shifts, learning how to communicate assertively and establishing healthy boundaries, not only contributes to improved relationships, but also decreased mental health symptoms. Dr. Shyamala invites us to embrace courage + integrity and get in touch with any stirrings we feel in our relationships, so that we may challenge the status quo in order to find more peace and joy in our lives.   Connect with Dr. Shyamala: Join Dr. Shyamala's FREE book launch party & masterclass on Feb 9th: https://pages.shyamalakiru.com/the-emotionally-intelligent-woman/ The EQ Code Training Labs: www.theeqcode.com FREE Emotional Intelligence Audit: www.theeqcode.com/audit Follow along on IG: @dr.shyamalakiru   Creator and Host: Kim Short Guest: Dr. Shyamala Kiru Editing and Production: Kim Short

This is one of the treatments that are offered at the Poppy Clinic, you can receive it as a stand-alone treatment or as part of your holistic health care. IV stands for Intravenous. It is a 40-minute session during which you are administered a customized blend of vitamins intravenously, right into your bloodstream. The advantage of getting your vitamins this way is that the digestive tract is bypassed in order for you to absorb 100% of what you are getting, you are receiving the vitamins directly, and are able to get much higher doses of the vitamins than you would ever be able to get otherwise. Did you know that 1 of 3 people have a digestive compromise? This means that even if you are eating a great diet or taking all of your vitamins, you might not actually be digesting and absorbing everything. IV Vitamin Therapy is the treatment that helps you absorb 100% of vitamins into your system.
