Sarah shares an episode from a podcast (and therapist) she'd like to introduce you to: A Simple Therapy Podcast with Sindee Gozansky. Sindee Gozansky welcomes Gino Titus-Luciano, LMHC—CEO of Kokua Mental Health and Wellness Group, president of the Hawaii Counselors Association, and a therapist who believes you can't show up as a textbook and expect real healing to happen. Gino brings insight into what culturally grounded care actually looks like and why bringing your authentic self into the room doesn't mean losing your professional boundaries. Together, Sindee and Gino explore how to balance being real with staying professional, why cultural curiosity matters more than competency, and what happens when a client's values directly challenge your own. Gino shares a powerful moment working with a client who rejected DEI principles—and how getting curious instead of defensive opened the door to actual therapeutic work. He breaks down why rigid treatment models burn clinicians out, how to know when you're over-identifying or under-identifying with a client's culture, and why caring for your therapists is the foundation of caring for clients. This conversation is full of permission to stop performing, real talk about vicarious trauma, and a reminder that reflection isn't optional—it's essential. Gino challenges us to ask whether we still love this work and to build practices where clinicians can laugh, bring their specialties to the table, and actually want to show up. Because sustainable therapy starts with remembering you're a person too. Thank you to Sindee and Gino for sharing this conversation from A Simple Therapy Podcast with us.

Episode #1177 You can put in all the effort in the world, but if it's not the effort your wife is asking for, your relationship may still feel stuck. In this episode of The TPM Show, Tim Matthews and Lawrence Davis unpack one of the most common traps successful men fall into: believing that working harder on themselves automatically leads to a stronger marriage. While personal growth is important, it isn't a substitute for genuine connection. Tim shares the story of a man who was committed to coaching, routines, and self-improvement but still struggled with a lack of physical intimacy in his marriage. The problem wasn't a lack of effort. It was that he was investing his energy everywhere except where his wife had been asking for it: spending quality time with her, being emotionally available, and creating meaningful moments of connection. Together, Tim and Lawrence explore how resentment builds when expectations don't match reality, why keeping score damages intimacy, and how emotional safety becomes the foundation for rebuilding trust. They also explain why many men focus on the outcome they want instead of the daily actions that actually create it.

In this episode, I'm joined by Dr. Alison Cook to talk about attachment, emotional healing, and the ways our relationships shape how we understand ourselves, others, and God.We all have a deep need for connection, safety, and belonging, but we can sometimes place too much pressure on the people around us to meet those needs. Dr. Cook explains why human relationships are important while also reminding us that no person can be the ultimate source of everything our souls need. There is a deeper attachment available to us through God.We also talk about what happens when old wounds surface, particularly when we finally feel safe enough for those parts of us to emerge. Dr. Cook describes these experiences as “soul ruptures”, moments when core memories and beliefs about ourselves can become activated. Instead of responding with shame or criticism, we can learn to slow down, notice what we're feeling, and become curious about what that part of us needs.This conversation is especially meaningful for moms who spend so much of their time caring for everyone else. When we're constantly focused on our children's needs, it can be easy to lose touch with what's happening inside of us. Dr. Cook encourages us to make space for our own souls, tend to the younger parts of ourselves that still need care, and allow God's healing presence into those places. Our souls are worth tending to, too.In This Episode Why attachment is such a fundamental human need Why we can't expect another person to meet all of our emotional needs What divine attachment means and how God becomes our ultimate source of connection Why parts of us can surface when we finally feel safe What a soul rupture is and how core memories can continue to affect us How shame and blame show up when we feel like we don't belong Learning to recognize and care for the younger parts of ourselves What it means to “parent your soul” Recognizing our internal bids for connection Why healing requires space for difficult emotions How moms can make more room for their own emotional and spiritual needs Why we don't change through shame or criticism Connect with Dr. Alison Cook: Website: Dr. Alison Cook Instagram: Dr. Alison Cook | Psychotherapist + Secure Attachment (@dralisoncook) Facebook: Dr. Alison Cook Links Mentioned: The Secure Soul: By Dr. Alison Cook Boundaries for Your Soul: By Dr. Alison Cook You Are the One You've Been Waiting For: By Richard Schwartz PhD Dr. Alison Cook | The Best of You Podcast The Best of You Every Day Podcast - 8 minute devotional Related Episodes: Building Healthy Relationships by Exploring Adult Attachment Patterns (Part 1) :: Charissa Lopez [Ep 498] Building Healthy Relationships by Exploring Adult Attachment Patterns (Part 2) :: Charissa Lopez [Ep 499] Strengthening the Relationship with Your Adult Child :: Kathy Cunningham [Ep 543] Featured Sponsors: Our place: Upgrade your kitchen with Our Place today.

Self-care isn't a spa day or a to-do list. In the HOCI model, it's one of the six core areas of healthy human functioning -- the ability to identify and tend to your own needs across four domains: physical, emotional, relational, and spiritual. In this episode we look at why self-care breaks down, what the value wound has to do with it, and why the cultural version of self-care leaves a lot of people -- especially men -- out entirely. If you've ever felt like tending to yourself was somehow selfish, this one's for you. IN THIS EPISODE The HOCI definition of self-care -- and why it's broader and more serious than the cultural version Why self-care breaks down: the value wound, codependence, and the belief that needs are selfish The four domains: physical, emotional, relational, and spiritual -- and what neglect in each one costs A direct conversation about men and self-care: what men are taught about needs, and what that costs them What self-care actually looks like for men -- practical and without the cultural baggage How self-care connects to all six HOCI principles Why giving from depletion isn't generosity -- it's a slow burn REFLECTION QUESTION In which of the four domains -- physical, emotional, relational, spiritual -- are you most depleted right now? And what is the story you tell yourself about why you don't have permission to tend to it?
Jess joined around 30 people at Lochlea distillery to take part in some floor maltings. Pretty dang cool! During her time there she had a wee chat with Alex Ferrand of Lochlea that's well worth your time and a listen. ...as usual, have a seat, have a pour, and listen in. Unless you're driving. If you're driving, be smart and stay sober but be sure to listen into the conversation!

What if the future of therapy asks clinicians to stop checking their humanity at the door? I've said it before, and I'll say it again: There's a gap between the world we were trained for as therapists and the world we find ourselves in now. And here to explore that gap with compassion, curiosity, and a dose of reality is relational therapist, writer, mentor, and founder of Venus + Legacy, Josie Rosario. Keep listening if you are curious about: The evolving role of the therapist to meet the needs of today's clients Therapists doing their own healing work and examining one's relationship to power as essential parts of becoming an effective clinician, Spirituality, the wounded healer, and the future of psychotherapy including faith and hope amid social and systemic collapse, and a possible return to the therapist as a more relational "village healer" rooted in community rather than positioned above it. "We have been trained to kinda check our humanity at the door a little bit," Josie says. But what happens when clients are increasingly hungry for what's real?

Micro Pause: Tending the Inner Garden
by Christian Medical & Dental Associations® What happens to your soul when the systems that train you run on efficiency, measurement, and output? Artist and author Bette Dickinson joins host Bill Reichart for a rich and unhurried conversation about spiritual flourishing in a productivity-driven culture — and why the vineyard, not the factory floor, is a far truer image of how God forms us. Bette unpacks the vital difference between bearing fruit and truly flourishing, examines how medical training quietly reshapes our image of God, and offers a life-giving alternative for the student, resident, or healthcare professional who feels like their formation has been hijacked by metrics. Whether you’re running on empty or just sensing that something deeper is missing, this conversation is an invitation to receive the long, patient work of the Vinedresser.
Fear, anger, grief, and stress all live in a real map inside your body called the meridians, and in this first episode of our four part series, I show you what the meridians are, why your emotions get stuck in them, and how fear in particular lives in the kidney and bladder and can finally be moved through Kundalini Yoga chanting and the breath, prana.This is Episode 1 of a four-part series walking the meridians, the energy pathways that carry prana through your body, one emotion and one pair of organs at a time. The meridians are where your emotions actually live and move through, and once you understand this map, your body stops being a mystery and you release the fear at the root. We begin with fear, because the body has to feel safe before anything else can heal/evolve, and fear lives in the Water element, in the kidney and the bladder and is once of the most common emotional patterns that is passed down in lineages.Along the way, this episode shows why understanding the meridians is not optional for women. There is a mental health crisis among women right now, and its real root is a fear that lives in the body and gets passed down the mother line, one that cannot be prayed or medicated away. We look honestly at how women's bodies actually work, how women in crisis have been failed for generations, and the heartbreaking case of Lindsay Clancy, as the proof of why this holistic body, mind, soul-based medicine cannot wait.What you'll learn:- What the meridians are, the twelve energy pathways that carry prana through your body, and why your emotions flow or become stagnant in the rivers - How the meridians work: yin and yang, the six organ pairs, the five elements, and the emotion each one carries- The two vessels up your spine that carry your ancestors' energy, and why restoring flow in the meridians is generational- Why fear lives in the kidney and bladder meridians, and the body clock that explains why so many women crash between 3 and 7 in the evening- The science that will give you chills: your adrenal glands, which make your fear hormones, sit directly on top of your kidneys, exactly where the meridian map placed fear thousands of years ago- Why the women's mental health crisis, and the Lindsay Clancy case, prove this matters now more than ever - The Chattr Chakkr Vartee Kundalini Yoga mantra, why chanting this mantra moves fear when words cannot, and Yogananda's Christ Consciousness teaching on fear and the Cosmic Mother- Plus Three things you can begin this week to move fear out of your body**Chapters:**00:00 You can't pray your fear away02:00 Why this matters for women04:00 What the meridians are07:00 How the meridians work: yin, yang, pairs, and elements10:00 The vessels that carry your ancestors13:00 Women, fear, and a system that fails them: the Lindsay Clancy case20:00 Fear in the kidney and bladder, and the body clock24:00 The science: your adrenals sit on your kidneys29:00 The mantra that moves fear33:00 The Christ Consciousness perspective37:00 Three things to begin this weekWelcome to the Sovereign Sisterhood Movement Sovereign Sister!I am Veronica Barragan, founder of the Sovereign Sisterhood Sanctuary, Kundalini Yoga therapist, and author of *Tending the Ancestral Garden, Reclaiming the Sanctuary*. I teach generational healing and self-realization through Kundalini Yoga, the science of inherited generational trauma, and the Christ Consciousness past of self-realization.
Stronger Together was a call that was popular several years ago as an attempt to join together and try to build each other up in a time when things seemed so bleak. But that call didn't last long. Today we look at a passage from Ezekiel to see why we should still be coming together to great things for God, our Good Shepherd.

What if the biggest challenge facing therapists isn't burnout… but evolution? In this special bonus episode, Sarah shares her keynote from the inaugural Revolutionary Practice Summit, exploring why therapists must evolve—not just professionally, but personally—to meet the realities of practicing in today's world. Drawing from trauma theory, developmental psychology, leadership research, systems thinking, and her own experience as a therapist and group practice owner, Sarah offers a compelling vision for the future of psychotherapy. Rather than asking therapists to simply become more resilient, she invites us to expand our capacity for complexity, uncertainty, and collective care. In this keynote, Sarah explores: Why therapists must do their own work The hidden cost of pathological empathy Why self-care alone isn't enough Organizational trauma and unhealthy workplace cultures Vertical development and therapist maturity The "meta-crisis" shaping mental health today Power, leadership, and the future of psychotherapy Why healing must happen at the individual, organizational, and systemic levels Whether you're a therapist, supervisor, practice owner, social worker, or graduate student, this keynote is an invitation to imagine what our profession could become—and the role each of us plays in creating it.

The biggest revolution right now isn't technology or artificial intelligence. It's identity. In fact, it's always been identity. And the reason you don't know who you are goes back generations, it's systemic, and it lives in your body.In this episode I go into the one thing underneath all of our healing: your identity. Because you never get what you want in life, you get what you believe to be. Most of us are living from a false identity we were programmed through trauma, religion, and colonization and it quietly runs our money, our relationships, and how we treat ourselves. I share my own story of releasing my addiction to alcohol through this work, and then I show you why identity is not a mindset issue and where identity actually lives in the body.I go into the science of why you can't think or affirm your way into your authentic self while your psoas muscle and fascia are still braced for danger from something that happened a long time ago or even in a past lifetime. I bring in Carl Jung, who studied Kundalini Yoga himself and placed the birth of the true self at that exact same center as the Yogis did. We talk honestly about who profits when a woman doesn't know who she is, from colonization to pop culture. Then I teach the real science of the mantra Sat Nam, how the tongue on the upper palate shifts your glands, navel, and your nervous system to burn away false identities, and how this becomes the path of Christ Consciousness returning to you to your highest identity, the light you actually. **⏱ CHAPTERS:**0:00 — The real revolution is identity, not technology1:23 — Welcome + what we're covering today3:39 — How we crucify ourselves on a false identity6:15 — Inherited trauma, past lifetimes, and the brain's addiction to the old self11:30 — Where identity lives in the body: the navel point (Manipura)14:31 — The psoas, the fascia, and why you can't think your way into a new self16:28 — The solar plexus, the gut brain, and interoception17:45 — Carl Jung and the birth of the true self at the navel23:40 — Persona, shadow, and the return to the Self27:01 — Who profits when a woman doesn't know who she is30:39 — Sat Nam: frequency, and how chanting rewires you33:05 — The science of Sat Nam: the palate, the glands, the nervous system36:11 — The Christ within and your highest identity39:22 — We are pure light: biophotons, fascia, and the meridians41:36 — Releasing the brace and doing the real work42:12 — How you live when God moves through you44:46 — Closing: you are the gift, join the Sanctuary and in-person circles**SUBSCRIBE + COMMENT:**If this resonated, subscribe and stay in community with us.

Can therapists ethically work with clients whose values oppose their own? Sarah Buino and Jordan Conrad explore professionalism, self-disclosure, political identity, and the future of psychotherapy in an increasingly polarized world. Is therapy political? That's a good question and one that provokes an array of answers (just peruse any therapists' Facebook group). I've talked with a decent number of therapists who possess vastly different political views than their clients. Every one of these compassionate providers mentions how difficult it is to hold space for healing amid political discord. Enter Jordan Conrad, PhD, LCSW, a psychotherapist, researcher, and the founder and clinical director of Lexington Park Psychotherapy in NYC. Jordan is an accomplished clinician and author, and his work explores difficult topics in the philosophy of medicine, neurodiversity, and psychotherapy. He's also an excellent sparring partner on the subject of ethics in therapeutic spaces. Let's get ready to (verbally) rumble!

Often times women that are accustomed to saving everyone and fixing everyone's problems, deep down are running away from themselves and wish someone would do that for them. This is a pattern that is passed down in the lineage that has to be broken energetically at the level of the nervous system. The agave plant is a great example of this. The plant lives for decades, storing and giving everything it has, and then sends up one giant flower stalk and dies, leaving new plants rooted at its base. I saw one in full bloom in Sedona the week my book was born which is exactly what happened in my own life with the birth of this book, and it is exactly what so many of the women in our lineages have done so you can too. In this episode I read the Invitation that closes my book. Then I explain who the matriarch in our families really was before colonization, systemic trauma, and religion made her forget, which is how she got turned into the woman who gives until she's empty. I also break down Barbault's Basket, the star pattern a French astrologer used to predict the 2020 pandemic more than 30 years ago, and what the planets are doing right now that confirm we have entered into a New Era of the Matriarch risign, from savior to protector. You'll learn where the savior pattern came from, why you carry it, and what the matriarch actually is.New here? I'm Veronica Barragan founder of the Sovereign Sisterhood Sanctuary and author of Tending the Ancestral Garden, Reclaiming the Sanctuary. I teach women to heal generational trauma through the Ten Bodies of Kundalini Yoga and the path of Christ Consciousness, weaving the science of inherited trauma together with ancient practice.WHAT THIS EPISODE COVERS:→ The full reading of the Invitation that closes *Tending the Ancestral Garden*, the passage I wrote after seeing the agave in full death bloom in Sedona the week the book was born→ What rose from that bloom: the book itself and six in-person Sanctuary chapters now open across two countries→ Who the matriarch in our families really was before colonization, the power and the role she held, and how empire changed her from a protector into the woman who gives until there's nothing left→ The savior pattern with both its sides, saving everyone around you and quietly needing to be saved yourself, where it comes from in the lineage, and what actually moves a woman out of it→ Barbault's Basket explained simply: the star pattern the French astrologer André Barbault used to predict the 2020, what the planets are doing right now, and why this exact week is the one where the shift happensDO THIS NEXT:

Send us Fan MailThis is the summer edition of something we explored earlier this year with kapha dosha — bringing the yamas and niyamas, yoga's ethical and personal observances, into conversation with the season we're actually in. And right now, we are in pitta season. Fire and water. Heat, intensity, drive, sharpness, focus — all of it turned up.Pitta's gifts are extraordinary. The clarity, the capacity to make things happen, the warmth. But when pitta goes out of balance in the height of summer — the fire can start to scorch the very life it's trying to build.These five practices are the medicine.What we cover:Ahimsa (non-violence) — how pitta's perfectionism and self-criticism are the most common forms of self-harm we never name, why Ayurveda recommends exercising to only 60–70% capacity in summer, and a simple practice of just noticing the moments you override your body before trying to change anythingSatya (truthfulness) — the practice of learning to hear the voice of what is actually true for you beneath the voice of obligation, habit, and expectation, and how body-led movement like Somatic Stretch and Shake creates a small safe container to begin that listeningBrahmacharya (moderation) — why pitta is drawn to intensity and how the short, brilliant Maine summer perfectly illustrates the urge to consume everything at once, and what it means to direct energy into balanced endeavors rather than burning both ends of the candleSaucha (purity) — the nervous system cost of a cluttered space, why pitta season is naturally detoxifying without any imposed cleanse, the foods that are cooling and cleansing right now (including a beloved herb sauce recipe), and movement as a lymphatic practiceSantosha (contentment) — the research on why our brains are genuinely unreliable estimators of how much big achievements will make us happy, the impact bias named by psychologists Dan Gilbert and Timothy Wilson, what the hedonic treadmill actually does to us, and why collecting small daily moments of contentment — what the Japanese call Sho-Katkou, small but certain happiness — may be one of the most powerful things a pitta person can doLinks mentioned:Somatic Stretch and Shake — free class on YouTubePitta season Somatic Stretch & Shake class coming soon — join the email list to stay in the loop: Email NewsletterResearch mentioned:Impact Bias — Gilbert, D. & Wilson, T.

What does it actually mean to live wholeheartedly?Jesus tells us to love God, love our neighbors, and—almosttucked into the middle of that command—to love our neighbors as ourselves.But what if loving ourselves isn't about self-focus at all? What if it's actually about stewardship?In this episode, I share one of the most helpful illustrations I've ever learned from Al-Anon: the idea that each of us has beenentrusted with our own "acre"—our spiritual, emotional, physical, mental, and relational life. We'll talk about why it's so easy to spend our lives comparing our acre to someone else's or trying to manage everyone else's instead of faithfully tending our own.I'll also share some of the simple rhythms that have helpedme walk with Jesus over the years, why I think we often write emotional checks our hearts can't cash, and why the ordinary decisions we make every day quietly shape the women we're becoming.If you've been feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, stuck incomparison, or simply wondering what faithfulness looks like in this season, I hope this conversation encourages you.Reflection QuestionsAs you picture your own "acre," what area of your life feels healthiest right now? What area most needs your attention? Where have you been spending more energy comparing your life to someone else's or trying to manage someone else's acre than tending your own? What daily rhythm helps you stay connected to Jesus andbecome the person He's creating you to be? Is there a new rhythm you'd like to begin? What is one small, ordinary step you can take this week tocare well for your spiritual, emotional, physical, mental, or relational health? How does remembering that you are already completely loved by God change the way you think about taking care of yourself?www.elisabethklein.com
What therapists often misunderstand about DID, childhood trauma, shame, attachment, and the therapeutic relationship—with psychotherapist and author Sally Maslansky. **If you find conversations about childhood sexual abuse activating, please take care with this episode. Although our discussion doesn't contain explicit details, abuse is a central theme.** Because hindsight is 20/20, allow me to add a bit of self-evaluation to this conversation with Sally Maslansky, LMFT, my emotionally wise and accomplished guest. Sally is a licensed psychotherapist, speaker, consultant, and author of A Brilliant Adaptation: How Dissociative Identity and the Therapeutic Bond Saved Me. Her work centers on the power of relationship, the complexity of the mind, and the possibility of healing even in the aftermath of profound childhood trauma. Sally's life and career can serve as proof that people with dissociative identity disorder (DID) can heal. Here are three points to take away from this discussion: DID truly is a superior survival adaptation. It generally develops in response to attachment wounds sustained in childhood. Shame––not the feeling that we've done something bad but that we are bad––is a bummer! The more we can build capacity to identify the implicit or explicit shame-based lessons of our childhood, the closer we get to connecting with ourselves and each other. Therapists can (and should) "meet" their patients' dissociated states. With proper training and supervision, these interactions can become part of a compassionate reintegration process. "Therapy," concludes Sally, "is a collaborative venture." I agree. It's not about needing to fix; it's about accountability and liberating ourselves from trauma.

Today we're going to chat about the quiet power of tending to your own vibration first — especially when other people's moods, stress, or opinions start pulling at you. This matters because so much of what we call "misalignment" is really just absorbing energy that isn't ours, and that can quietly throw off your confidence, clarity, and momentum. When you learn how to steady yourself before reacting, you become more grounded, magnetic, and clear in every area of life. Tune in for practical, real-life shifts that will help you stay centered, protect your energy, and influence your world from the inside out.

We all want to grow something good in our lives, but wanting growth and actually experiencing it are two very different things. In Matthew 13, Jesus describes four types of soil that represent four conditions of the human heart: calloused, shallow, crowded, and fruitful. The seed is the Word of God, the sower is Jesus, and there is nothing wrong with either. The only variable is the condition of our hearts. Through the Beatitudes, Jesus gives us a practical path forward. Practicing mercy softens a calloused heart, pursuing purity deepens a shallow heart, and promoting peace clears a crowded heart. Tending to the soil of our hearts is not a one-time decision but an ongoing, faithful practice. When we do, Jesus cultivates fruitfulness in us that blesses everyone around us.

A listener recently asked a question that seems like a contradiction: How can someone be born on a New Moon if their Moon is also void of course? Doesn't a conjunction with the sun mean that the moon isn't void? In this episode, we unpack what each of these astrological concepts means and how both can be true at the same time. You'll also find out how these concepts apply to the upcoming New Moon in Cancer, what having a void of course new moon might feel like in a natal chart, and how this concept is being reflected in my own solar return (and life) this year.Want to prepare for the New Moon in Cancer?

In episode 621, depth psychotherapist and astrologer Shawna McGrath, LMFT (she/her) shares about the planetary archetypes of Jupiter, Pluto, and Chiron and how from a depth psychological perspective these symbolically represent themes of power, authority, dignity, oppression/oppressor, child/adult, wounded/caregiver, privilege/marginalization, and a call to heal our relationship with wounding, power, and trauma.
Neglect does not destroy your life overnight. It slowly shows up in your marriage, your body, your business, your leadership, your family, and your spiritual life. In this episode, Tim Holloway teaches Christian men how to recognize the areas they have stopped tending and why true ownership begins with seeing what God has placed inside your domain. If you feel like your life is drifting, your relationships are strained, your body is breaking down, your business is overgrown, or your spiritual life feels distant, this message will help you identify the root issue: neglect. You will learn why blaming pressure, fatigue, other people, or circumstances keeps you immature, while ownership brings maturity, stewardship, repair, and responsibility. This teaching is for men who are ready to stop standing idly by, stop meddling in everyone else's business, and start carrying what is actually theirs. Your marriage, fatherhood, body, mission, calendar, emotions, and walk with God are not random. They are your garden. And whatever you refuse to tend will eventually reveal the cost of neglect. You'll learn how neglect begins through avoidance, how responsibilities compound when ignored, why your domain matters, and how ownership changes the way you lead your marriage, family, business, body, and spiritual life. Tim also unpacks biblical examples from Adam, Proverbs, and David to show how unattended areas become visible over time and why maturity requires courage, responsibility, and honest self-examination. 00:00 Intro: Becoming an Owner01:45 What Neglect Really Is03:49 Adam's Neglect in the Garden06:00 Where Neglect Shows Up in Life07:45 The Old House Analogy11:43 Why Untended Areas Fall Apart13:10 The Garden and Weed Lesson15:04 Neglect Compounds Over Time18:03 Proverbs 24 and the Field of the Sluggard21:29 Your Life Reveals What You Tend23:21 Avoidance Creates More Pressure23:53 The Wood Rot and Termite Analogy27:50 Neglect Does Not Stay Neutral30:48 Understanding Your Jurisdiction33:00 Your Loves, Impact, Frame, and Essence37:29 Stay Out of Other People's Business41:12 David's Neglect in 2 Samuel 1145:52 Procrastination Is Not Time Management46:53 The Pie Recipe Analogy51:58 What Neglect Feels Like53:00 The Narrow Path and Ownership58:54 Asking God Why You Avoid Responsibility01:00:06 Questions for Your Loves, Impact, Body, and Essence01:02:27 The First Step Into Ownership #ChristianMen #BiblicalManhood #Ownership #SpiritualGrowth #Leadership Learn more about your ad choices.

Why therapists must do their own work: leadership, integrity, and the future of therapy with Sarah Buino and Lane Essex. We made it! To the middle of 2026. I realize that's a bit of a good-news/bad-news scenario given the current political climate. Still, the fact that we're all here is something worthy of celebration. Or, at the very least, reflection. Where do we, as therapists, want to grow next? How do we get there? I literally cannot fathom any other solution for how we evolve the profession, get better at running businesses, or treat each other and our clients than by working on ourselves. So let's talk about: The future of therapy and therapist leadership Why self-work is foundational to ethical practice Group practice ownership and accountability The challenges of building a consulting business Integrity as a professional competency Community, belonging, and the role of thought leadership in uncertain times Cheers to more growth in the second half.

Many people focus exclusively on their symptoms when trying to heal anxiety, fatigue, brain fog, chronic pain, dizziness, digestive issues, or other neuroplastic symptoms. But symptom work is only one side of the healing equation. In this episode, Ali introduces the concept of emotional tending—the practice of regularly acknowledging and caring for your emotional world before your body has to get your attention through symptoms. You'll learn why nervous system healing isn't just about reducing fear around symptoms, but also about understanding the underlying emotional patterns that may keep the brain feeling unsafe in the first place. Ali discusses emotional repression, the hidden burden of being the strong one, and how unacknowledged emotions can contribute to chronic stress and nervous system activation. She also shares practical ways to begin tending to your emotional life without overanalyzing yourself or becoming consumed by your feelings. In this episode, you'll learn: What emotional tending is and why it matters The two sides of neuroplastic healing How emotional repression can impact the nervous system Why high-achieving and caregiving personalities often struggle with emotional tending The difference between emotional processing and emotional rumination Practical ways to create emotional awareness in daily life Why symptoms may sometimes be a signal that something deeper needs attention Plus, Ali shares a guided emotional processing exercise to help you begin practicing emotional tending for yourself.

Sarah reflects on selling her therapy practice, surviving burnout, and discovering that healing sometimes means walking away. This week we're sharing a conversation that originally aired on Lonely at the Top, hosted by Rachel Alexandria. Rachel works with CEOs, founders, executives, and high performers navigating the emotional weight of leadership, so it makes sense that this conversation was about one of the most transformative—and painful—chapters of my professional life. In this episode: Why leadership can become profoundly lonely—even when you're surrounded by people The hidden relationship between trauma, workaholism, and burnout Navigating residential treatment and recovery during COVID What suicidal ideation can reveal about feeling trapped and overwhelmed Why asking for help may be one of the most important leadership skills we develop If you've ever felt trapped by success, isolated by leadership, or overwhelmed by the pressure of holding everything together, I hope this conversation reminds you that you're not alone and that healing doesn't require perfection. Originally aired on Lonely at the Top in 2025.

The Buddha taught a path of awakened living, but how does that manifest in today's world of constant connectivity and widespread suffering?How do we keep our hearts open without being defined or hardened by the pain that surrounds us, whether personal, collective, or historical? How do we navigate the paradox of holding both pain and joy without mistaking suffering for punishment or personal failure?
