Podcasts about Tawny

Lisa celebrated 21 years sober and Tawny is coming up on 10 years of sobriety and life in New York City. Neither of them say they'll never drink again – they still take it one day at a time. They also talk about keeping things fresh in long-term sobriety. Let yourself try new things just for yourself. As Tawny tells her students, “feel free to write badly!” That goes for other things you enjoy or want to try like painting or playing piano. Whatever it is, just have fun doing it.  Music Minute features (being sad about Gwen Stefani and) No Doubt, Gin Blossoms, The Allman Brothers Band, and Talking Heads Order The Sobriety Deck  Listen to The Sobriety Deck Playlist by Hannah Gardner Order Tawny's book, DRY HUMPING: A Guide to Dating, Relating, and Hooking Up Without the Booze Subscribe to Tawny's newsletter "Beyond Liquid Courage" Order Tawny's new NA drink, (parentheses) Purchase Lisa's memoir, Girl Walks Out of a Bar   

In this episode, we're exploring the connection between chronic pain, people pleasing, and perfectionism.

Tawny and Lisa get back to basics and the Serenity Prayer. Whether your Higher Power is God, the universe, or a stick of incense, this episode is for you. Even if the whole "Higher Power thing" is not for you, knowing what we can and cannot control is a key tool in staying sober. It's not acquiescing or giving up if what you need to do right now is take care of yourself physically and mentally, and no more than that. Rest is essential. Letting go of what you can't control helps tremendously. Music Minute features the Dropkick Murphys and the musical Rent Watch The Dropkick Murphys Made in the USA  Order The Sobriety Deck  Listen to The Sobriety Deck Playlist by Hannah Gardner Order Tawny's book, DRY HUMPING: A Guide to Dating, Relating, and Hooking Up Without the Booze Subscribe to Tawny's newsletter  "Beyond Liquid Courage" Order Tawny's new NA drink, (parentheses) Purchase Lisa's memoir, Girl Walks Out of a Bar

Okay, this might have gone off the rails a bit but welcome (back) to Oversharing (again!). We open up about how shitty we are at consistency and how it all ties to our Great Depression of 2024.

There's also tales of a stalking mission gone wrong and the two days that Maria had a murderer for a brother.

Lisa and Tawny acknowledge their transfer addictions, sometimes spending money as a coping strategy similar to how they drank. Cutting down on purchasing and consumption has been a trend for years, but is even bigger this year. No-Buy or Less-Buy is having a moment in 2025.  Beyond saving money, it's also a way to support your recovery and core values. No Buy is not a punishment – it should feel empowering and even fun. Consider setting some goals for spending less and doing it with an accountability buddy. But don't put too much pressure on yourself! We also need to go gently in 2025. Music Minute features Trixie and Katya and I Like To Watch and NSYNC Order The Sobriety Deck  Listen to The Sobriety Deck Playlist by Hannah Gardner Order Tawny's book, DRY HUMPING: A Guide to Dating, Relating, and Hooking Up Without the Booze Sign up for "Beyond Liquid Courage" Order Tawny's new NA drink, (parentheses) Purchase Lisa's memoir, Girl Walks Out of a Bar

Tawny and Lisa catch up on all they've been reading and watching in an attempt to stay distracted from the horrendous 24-hour news cycle. Allowing time to check out and get lost in stories is a critical element of their self-care and sobriety routines.

[Editor's Note: The following contains spoilers for Yellowjackets, Season 3, Episode 4, "12 Angry Girls and 1 Drunk Travis."]Tawny Cypress is an absolute powerhouse on Yellowjackets. In fact, Cypress was so immediately captivating in the hit Showtime and Paramount+ series that I frequently caught myself wondering, how have we not been getting a steady stream of Tawny content for years now? Cypress' first main role on a TV series was playing Simone Deveaux in Heroes, but that run only lasted one season. After that, it was Unforgettable on CBS, but Cypress jumped into that one when the show was already in its second season. Next up was a main role in The Blacklist: Redemption, but again, that foundation had already been built pror to Cypress' involvement because, of course, it was a The Blacklist spin-off. Cypress needed more, and she deserved more. In fact, she wished for just that. “I want a really good show. I want the best job I've ever had, and I want it to be good, and I want it to last.” That wish was granted. It was Yellowjackets.Cypress stars as the present day version of Taissa Turner, played in the 90s by past Ladies Night guest Jasmin Savoy Brown. At the start of the series, Cypress' Taissa is running to become a New Jersey state senator. However, when her past in the wilderness catches up with her, Taissa starts to unravel, threatening her chances of winning the election. Shocking many, including herself, Tai wins the race, but at that point it's too late. The wilderness has firmly dug its claws back into the surviving Yellowjackets, reuniting Taissa with Van (Lauren Ambrose), and then bringing the whole (?) group back together at Lottie's (Simone Kessell) compound to sort through the wealth of complications the 1996 plane crash left them with as adults. Their get-together concludes with an especially twisted hunt, one that results in Natalie's (Juliette Lewis) demise. When Season 3 kicks off, forget politics. Taissa has narrowed her focus to one thing and one thing only, keeping Van alive - even if she has to turn to the wilderness to do so.With Yellowjackets Season 3, Episodes 1-4 now available to stream on Paramount+, Cypress swung by the Collider Ladies Night studio to discuss her journey to Yellowjackets, and offer some insight into the most powerful and cryptic moments of Season 3 thus far.

The new administration is cutting off financial support for nonprofit organizations that support diverse communities, including the LGBTQA+ population, who struggle with higher rates of addiction than the general population.

Tawny and Lisa discuss a recent essay in The Guardian titled I tried ‘intermittent sobriety'. Here's what I learned jumping on and off the wagon by Arwa Mahdawi. They appreciate the author's candid approach to harm reduction for the sake of self-discovery. Intermittent sobriety is similar to sober curiosity in that they both encourage thoughtful consideration in reevaluating one's relationship with alcohol without going fully sober. These booze-breaks can be regular, planned periods of sobriety or spontaneous decisions. Changing rituals, “playing the tape forward,” and spicy food-induced dopamine (!) are all suggested ways to help.  Music Minute features Audioslave, Counting Crows and The Who Read The Guardian article  Order The Sobriety Deck  Listen to The Sobriety Deck Playlist Order Tawny's book, DRY HUMPING: A Guide to Dating, Relating, and Hooking Up Without the Booze Sign up for "Beyond Liquid Courage" Order Tawny's new NA drink, (parentheses) Purchase Lisa's memoir, Girl Walks Out of a Bar

Tawny and Lisa talk about the evolution of Dry January, including some Do's and Don'ts. DO give yourself grace, journal about your experiences, find an accountability buddy and/or seek outside support, and stock your fridge for success with NA beverages.

Tawny's expertise and unique approach focus on understanding pain through a whole-person lens: integrating the mind, body, and emotional experience.We dive into the powerful connection between chronic pain and body image—how the stories we tell ourselves, societal pressures, and even the language of healthcare providers can influence both physical pain and how we perceive our bodies.Some highlights from our conversation:The surprising parallels between chronic pain and body image strugglesWhy 90% of Tawny's work is focused on the "intangible" mental and emotional factors behind painHow stress impacts pain, eating behaviors, and our relationship with foodRebuilding the mind-body connection to support healingSimple tools to start noticing and naming your body's responses to stress and self-talkIf you've ever struggled with chronic pain or body image, this episode will help you feel seen and offer insights into creating more compassion and connection with your body.Dr. Tawny Kross is the founder of RSR (Ready, Set, Rewire) which is the program she developed to take women with chronic stress, pain and inflammation, out of pain and survival mode, so that they can thrive and live an active lifestyle they love.She graduated with her Doctorate in Physical Therapy from Duke University in 2013. Her journey as a chronic pain specialist and coach evolved from nearly a decade of practice at a Veteran's Hospital. Because of the complex histories, physical and sexual traumas many Veterans have, in order to better serve and help them heal from chronic pain, Dr. Kross grew her practice, knowledge and breadth of expertise to include nutrition; hypnosis; guided imagery; mindfulness; pain neuroscience education; breathwork; mind-body practices and more.When she's not working on all things related to chronic pain, she enjoys church; hikes with her two kids and husband; exercise (weight lifting, tennis or running); playing boardgames; reading sci-fi fantasy books; or trying to come up with really bad (or...maybe they're REALLY good) Mom jokes. Connect with Tawny (and you can DM her for a free meditation!)Connect with JordanaFind me on InstagramSign up for my Monday newsletter with lots of nutrition, body image and mindset tipsSchedule a free discovery call to talk more about working together Listen to more episodes of The Diet Diaries
