There is a better way, and it starts here.

In this episode of The Healers Café, Manon Bolliger, FCAH, RBHT (facilitator and retired naturopath with 30+ years of practice) speaks to Greg discuss the impact of diagnoses and labels on people's perception of their problems. For the transcript and full story go to: https://www.drmanonbolliger.com/greg-lawrence Highlights from today's episode include: Greg said: “A lot of the things people consider to be integration didn't work for me... unless you address those automatic reactions at an unconscious level, things may continue to be the same. Transformation, to me, means personal transformation—transforming my experience of life for the better.” (0:08:18) Greg said: “Mindfulness is the process of noticing things, actively noticing novelty... If you want to be present at any time, you can simply notice what's around you and notice that you have a body... being present, being mindful, is a process that you strengthen by exercising it over and over again.” (0:28:16) Manon said: “You get a diagnosis, which you happen to believe, but then you make the diagnosis almost a second layer of a problem to the problem... it's almost like that has its own speed and life of its own, but you still have the same symptoms otherwise.” (0:12:44) ABOUT GREG LAWRENCE: Transformational and Psychedelic Integration Coach.

In this episode, I examine the complexities of social anxiety linked to internalized critical voices from parents. Using a metaphor of facing a bully, I discuss how self-attack emerges as a defense mechanism against childhood abuse. I emphasize the need for open conversations with parents and the importance of therapy in navigating these issues.I also propose reframing inner critics as protective forces rather than adversaries, advocating a healthier self-relationship. I conclude by outlining a tripartite approach to healing that involves addressing external criticism, reshaping our inner narratives, and fostering self-kindness, encouraging listeners to pursue their own paths to healing.FOLLOW ME ON X! https://x.com/StefanMolyneuxGET MY NEW BOOK 'PEACEFUL PARENTING', THE INTERACTIVE PEACEFUL PARENTING AI, AND THE FULL AUDIOBOOK!https://peacefulparenting.com/Join the PREMIUM philosophy community on the web for free!Subscribers get 12 HOURS on the "Truth About the French Revolution," multiple interactive multi-lingual philosophy AIs trained on thousands of hours of my material - as well as AIs for Real-Time Relationships, Bitcoin, Peaceful Parenting, and Call-In Shows!You also receive private livestreams, HUNDREDS of exclusive premium shows, early release podcasts, the 22 Part History of Philosophers series and much more!See you soon!https://freedomain.locals.com/support/promo/UPB2025

They're thinking about their day. They're thinking about their own problems. They're not thinking about you. If they do have a thought about you, it's pretty transient. It's pretty quick. It's not like they're dwelling on it like the person with social anxiety is.” ~Ken Goodman, LCSW Our guest, Ken Goodman, LCSW, specializes in the treatment of anxiety disorders and OCD. He is on the board of directors for the Anxiety and Depression Association of America and is Founding Director of QuietMindSolutions.com.

Social Anxiety Solutions - your journey to social confidence!
In this episode... Are you afraid of what other people think of you? Worried they'll judge you negatively? You're not alone. In this episode, I share my personal journey with the fear of judgment and how it shaped my social anxiety for years. You'll hear how constantly seeking approval and avoiding disapproval becomes a rigid pattern, and why that pattern becomes your prison. I also explain where this fear really comes from, how it's often rooted in early emotional wounds, and the deeper reason it feels so hard to be your authentic self in social situations. Then, I walk you through the ultimate solution and what real freedom looks like when you no longer fear their judgment.
"ADHD is not an excuse, it's a reason." In this episode, Phil and Ky Westcott (mental health advocate - @thevibewithky) delve into the complexities of introversion, mental health, and the evolving understanding of ADHD. They discuss the importance of authenticity in sharing personal struggles, the rise in ADHD diagnoses, and the need for better education around mental health in schools. Ky shares his journey from injury to self-discovery through social media, emphasizing the significance of vulnerability and emotional intelligence in today's youth. The conversation highlights the impact of societal changes on mental health awareness and the importance of supporting individuals in their mental health journeys. Introversion does not limit performative abilities. The journey of self-discovery can start from personal struggles. Social media can be a platform for authenticity and connection. ADHD awareness is increasing due to more open conversations. Education systems need to adapt to the emotional intelligence of students. Mental health discussions were lacking in past generations. ADHD is a spectrum that evolves over time. Vulnerability in adults can positively influence youth. Stories of late diagnoses highlight the need for awareness. Support and understanding are crucial for mental health management.

She’s back! And this time Kel and I are diving into all the big, scary, liberating stuff... like finding your voice, owning your truth, and saying 'no' without choking on it. We talk people-pleasing, the opposite of 'nice', why boundaries feel like a boxing match, and how sometimes the metaphorical possum you’ve been chasing leaves you wondering what the hell to do next. Kel gives us the down-low on going from painfully shy and introverted to taking her seat at the table and speaking up in rooms that once terrified her. We talk about masks, conditioning, social anxiety, creativity, and the strange safety of telling the internet what you can’t yet tell your best mate. This one’s about freedom, visibility, and doing the thing scared… because regret is far more uncomfortable than honesty.

How shocked were you by your last performance review? If the feedback felt like it came out of nowhere, you might have some self-awareness blind spots that are silently sabotaging your career progress. What I'm Covering: The shocking truth that only 10-15% of people are actually self-aware (despite 95% thinking they are) Why your analytical superpowers can create blind spots when it comes to reading social situations The real career cost of communication patterns you don't even realize you have How to debug your interpersonal operating system using skills you already possess The Analytical Professional Paradox: If you can spot patterns in data from a mile away but miss when your colleague's body language shifts during your explanations, you're experiencing the disconnect between technical brilliance and social awareness. Common "If This, Then That" Scenarios: If you're constantly re-explaining things → there's a gap between what you think you're communicating and what people receive If people seem resistant to your input despite your expertise → your delivery might be making them feel defensive If you keep getting passed over for leadership roles → you might be missing the emotional component of professional interactions ** Don't even know where to begin in improving your interpersonal skills?

Transcript:Ca: El sol brillava alt en el cel blau, escampant una calor suau pels carrers del barri de Sant Climent.En: The sun shone high in the blue sky, spreading a gentle heat across the streets of the Sant Climent neighborhood.Ca: Un lloc tranquil, amb cases amb flors als balcons i nens jugant a les voreres.En: A peaceful place, with houses adorned with flowers on the balconies and children playing on the sidewalks.Ca: Avui era el Dia de Neteja del Barri, una tradició que havia començat feia anys per mantenir la zona neta i amable per a tothom.En: Today was the Neighborhood Cleaning Day, a tradition that began years ago to keep the area clean and friendly for everyone.Ca: Oriol, un jove amb una mirada serena però una remor constant dins la seva ment, sortia de casa amb una bossa d'escombraries i uns guants.En: Oriol, a young man with a serene look but a constant hum inside his mind, left his house with a trash bag and some gloves.Ca: Li agradava veure el seu barri net i ordenat, però l'idea d'interactuar amb els veïns li feia un nus a l'estómac.En: He liked to see his neighborhood neat and tidy, but the idea of interacting with the neighbors tied his stomach in knots.Ca: Coneixia la Marta, la líder enérgica que sempre vaultava amb un somriure lluminós i paraules motivadores.En: He knew Marta, the energetic leader who always bounced around with a bright smile and motivational words.Ca: A la plaça central, les famílies ja s'havien aglomerat.En: In the central square, families had already gathered.Ca: Les rialles i converses fluïen lliurement entre ells.En: Laughter and conversations flowed freely among them.Ca: Marta ja estava allà, dirigint el grup amb l'entusiasme que la caracteritzava.En: Marta was already there, directing the group with the enthusiasm that characterized her.Ca: Quan va veure Oriol, el va saludar amb la mà.En: When she saw Oriol, she waved at him.Ca: "Oriol!En: "Oriol!Ca: Estic tan contenta que hagis vingut!En: I'm so glad you came!"Ca: "Ell va respondre amb un somriure tímid abans de dirigir-se a una petita zona del parc.En: He responded with a shy smile before heading to a small area of the park.Ca: Va decidir començar amb una vella font circular plena de fulles i branquetes.En: He decided to start with an old circular fountain filled with leaves and twigs.Ca: Oriol pensava que, si se centrava en una tasca petita, podria evitar les grans converses i assimilar-se silenciosament al seu entorn.En: Oriol thought that if he focused on a small task, he could avoid big conversations and blend quietly into his surroundings.Ca: Però mentre treballava, aviat es va adonar que la font estava més malmesa del que semblava.En: But as he worked, he soon realized that the fountain was more damaged than it appeared.Ca: El fang i les herbes enredades dificultaven la feina.En: The mud and tangled weeds made the work difficult.Ca: Encara que va intentar arreglar-ho tot sol, la frustració començava a créixer.En: Although he tried to fix it alone, frustration began to grow.Ca: Va murmurar entre dents mentre intentava desemboçar la sortida d'aigua.En: He murmured under his breath while attempting to clear the water outlet.Ca: Marta, que supervisava el procés a certa distància, va detectar els problemes d'Oriol i s'hi va acostar.En: Marta, who was overseeing the process from a distance, noticed Oriol's troubles and approached him.Ca: "Necessites ajuda, Oriol?En: "Do you need help, Oriol?"Ca: ", va preguntar amb la seva veu serena però decidida.En: she asked in her calm yet determined voice.Ca: Ell va sospirar, i després de vacil·lar un moment, va assentir.En: He sighed, and after hesitating for a moment, nodded.Ca: "Sí, crec que aquest projecte és més gran del que esperava.En: "Yes, I think this project is bigger than I expected."Ca: ""No et preocupis, a vegades necessitem una mà amiga", va dir Marta.En: "Don't worry, sometimes we need a helping hand," said Marta.Ca: "Per què no unim esforços?En: "Why don't we join forces?Ca: Podem demanar que algú més ens ajudi.En: We can ask someone else to help us."Ca: "Oriol es va sentir alleujat de no haver d'afrontar-ho sol i li va fer cas.En: Oriol felt relieved not having to face it alone and agreed.Ca: Marta va cridar a uns quants veïns i junts van netejar la font.En: Marta called a few neighbors over, and together they cleaned the fountain.Ca: En pocs minuts, el grup va aconseguir desbloquejar la sortida d'aigua, i la petita font va tornar a brollar, brillant sota el sol d'estiu.En: In a few minutes, the group managed to unblock the water outlet, and the small fountain began to gush again, sparkling under the summer sun.Ca: A mesura que treballava amb els altres, Oriol va començar a sentir-se més còmode.En: As he worked with others, Oriol began to feel more comfortable.Ca: Les persones li somreien i van començar a parlar sobre aficions comunes i històries del barri.En: People smiled at him and started talking about common hobbies and neighborhood stories.Ca: Les seves preocupacions inicials es van diluir entre les veus amigues i l'ambient acollidor.En: His initial worries faded among friendly voices and the welcoming atmosphere.Ca: Quan la jornada va finalitzar, el barri lluïa net i ordenat.En: When the day ended, the neighborhood looked clean and orderly.Ca: Oriol, una mica cansat, però també ple d'un nou sentiment de confiança, va mirar la font.En: Oriol, a bit tired but also filled with a new sense of confidence, looked at the fountain.Ca: Era un recordatori del que podia aconseguir amb una mica d'ajuda.En: It was a reminder of what could be achieved with a little help.Ca: "Marta, gràcies per tot avui", va dir.En: "Marta, thank you for everything today," he said.Ca: "No ho has de dir", va respondre ella amb un riure.En: "Don't mention it," she replied with a laugh.Ca: "Aquí estem tots junts, Oriol.En: "We're all in this together, Oriol.Ca: Avui has fet un gran treball.En: You did great work today."Ca: "Amb aquestes paraules, Oriol va sentir que el nus a l'estómac es desfava una mica.En: With these words, Oriol felt the knot in his stomach loosen a bit.Ca: Havia après que, a vegades, compartir la càrrega feia la diferència.En: He had learned that sometimes sharing the burden made all the difference.Ca: Potser, després de tot, no estava sol en aquest gran barri anomenat Sant Climent.En: Perhaps, after all, he wasn't alone in this big neighborhood called Sant Climent.

In this latest installment of the recurring collaboraton between Ken Fong and Ken Kemp, they attempt to ascertain why Trump and MAGA folks enjoy being cruel to others. Especially those that they believe robbed them of previous stature and status in America. Fong and Kemp also bring in David Brook's recent piece in The Atlantic as he attempts to unpack why so many Americans think Trump is good. And they found a perfect example of where some people choose to ignore cruelty because they've become so acclimated to it in the 2024 German film The Zone of Interest.

In this powerful episode, I'm joined by someone incredibly special, Taushia Henkel-Johnson. She's a therapist, a graduate of Non-Diet Academy, a member of Non-Dieter's Club, and someone who's done the deep, vulnerable work of healing her relationship with food and body image. Taushia brings a thoughtful, honest, and down-to-earth perspective to this work, not just as a clinician, but as someone who's living it. In our conversation, she shares her personal journey of recovering from disordered eating and navigating body shame and social anxiety, and she introduces us to SPOT theory - an incredibly helpful way of understanding how we internalize judgment and shame about our bodies. We also explore practical tools you can use when you feel like people are watching what's on your plate or worried that they're judging your body. Whether you're early in your healing journey or further down the path, this episode is filled with insight, empathy, and encouragement. ⚠️ Trigger warning: Taushia does speak about her eating disorder history, including some specific behaviors and numbers. If that's not something your nervous system can hold today, feel free to skip or fast forward. Episode Highlights -How other people's judgments about our bodies can feel threatening to our nervous system - and hence, why you might be so worried about this. -Your desire to fit in, to feel comfortable in your body isn't vain or shallow. It's about connection and belonging, which are basic human needs. -SPOT theory, the Spotlight Effect, and the 90-second rule as frameworks that you can use to help yourself through bad body image moments.

Do you panic at the thought of blushing in public? That rising heat in your chest… the burning in your ears… the shame of knowing people see it? I used to live in fear of that exact moment. In this episode... I share my personal story of dealing with chronic, uncontrollable blushing in social situations, where it started, how it became tied to my social anxiety, and what I tried (unsuccessfully) for years to stop it. Eventually, I discovered a way to release the shame, the fear, and the obsessive thoughts. It wasn't willpower. It wasn't exposure therapy. It was acceptance, combined with a powerful technique called EFT tapping. You'll learn: Why blushing becomes an obsession and what fuels it How past experiences create emotional triggers in the body Why most solutions don't work (and what finally did) How I released the deep self-judgment and stopped caring… and then, the blushing stopped too What I now use with my clients to help them overcome blushing and social anxiety for good This is a vulnerable, honest episode that can shift how you see yourself and give you hope that change is possible.

It's so easy to get caught up in the "physical" when you are stricken with chronic pain out of nowhere. This is exactly what happened to Adam. Otherwise healthy for his whole life, Adam began having severe pelvic and back pain, and spent years in the frustrating cycle of specialists and failed treatments. In retrospect, Adam can see so many things in his life that he was unconsciously avoiding, key among them facing his social anxiety and "addiction" to the gym for safety. Today, chronic pain free and full of wisdom and perspective, Adam and I unpack it all. You don't have to be a man or a person who's expereinced pelvic pain to get SO MUCH out of this episode.

Topic : Help, I'm Stuck!Topic Detail: Hello, Stefan,My name is [x]. I'm 26 years old and the fourth of five children born to two abusive parents. I moved out over a year ago, and since then, I've been living on my own and listening to your show. Over the past year, I've been processing and grieving my childhood. Your show has been incredibly helpful in identifying the true extent of the abuse I endured, understanding how to apply philosophy to my life, and learning how to be a peaceful parent. The impact it has had on my life is immeasurable.Right now, I find myself doing little outside of going to work. On weekends, I rarely leave my house except to run errands, play basketball at the park, or occasionally hang out in person with my Xbox friends. My biggest struggle at the moment is a porn addiction. Most weekends, I give in to the urge, which completely drains my energy, leaving the next few days as a write-off. This has been a major contributor to my social anxiety and inhibition when talking to women. It has defined my entire adult life.I've mostly DFOO'd, but I haven't truly confronted either of my parents. I feel like I've extracted as much knowledge, wisdom, and insight as I can from my childhood—yet I still think about it every day. And I'm sick of it.A real sense of mortality is setting in. I'm 26, single, and have few good memories to look back on. I do not want to turn 27 and still be in the same place. Life has been passing me by, and I know there's so much more out there. I hope that by talking to you, I can identify the root of my dysfunction and learn to move forward in life with confidence. I thirst for feedback, guidance, and an ally to help dislodge me from this perpetual cycle of self-destruction.Thank you for your time and consideration.GET MY NEW BOOK 'PEACEFUL PARENTING', THE INTERACTIVE PEACEFUL PARENTING AI, AND THE FULL AUDIOBOOK!https://peacefulparenting.com/Join the PREMIUM philosophy community on the web for free!Subscribers get 12 HOURS on the "Truth About the French Revolution," multiple interactive multi-lingual philosophy AIs trained on thousands of hours of my material - as well as AIs for Real-Time Relationships, Bitcoin, Peaceful Parenting, and Call-In Shows!You also receive private livestreams, HUNDREDS of exclusive premium shows, early release podcasts, the 22 Part History of Philosophers series and much more!See you soon!https://freedomain.locals.com/support/promo/UPB2025
