In this vulnerable episode of the Mind Bully Podcast, Norense Odiase records from Calgary, Canada, in the middle of family weddings, memorials, and moments of grief. Just a month after losing his sister and preparing for his grandmother's burial, he reflects on what it means to show up in life even when you don't feel like it.Norense opens up about the tension of joy and sorrow—celebrating his cousin's marriage while mourning the milestones his sister will never experience.

Ever feel trapped in cycles of rumination, overthinking, and constant mental chatter about your anxiety? In this episode, Drew and Josh tackle the challenging question of how to "get out of your own head" without turning it into another exhausting battle.Starting with a thoughtful question from a listener who has built an impressive life despite ongoing anxiety and DPDR but still struggles with constant internal focus, the hosts explore why simply trying to stop thinking doesn't work and what actually does.Key topics covered include:Why "getting out of your head" doesn't mean eliminating anxious thoughtsThe difference between coexisting with thoughts versus fighting themHow to make anxiety the "least interesting thing in the room"Understanding when overthinking becomes a compulsion rather than helpful problem-solvingPractical strategies for redirecting attention while allowing difficult feelingsThe role of willful tolerance in breaking rumination cyclesThe episode features inspiring "did it anyway" stories from listeners conquering agoraphobia with solo travel and managing postpartum OCD intrusive thoughts during daily caregiving tasks.Drew and Josh also address the tricky balance between attention redirection techniques and emotional avoidance, offering guidance for those working with metacognitive therapy approaches.Key Timestamps:[02:30] - Listener question about staying out of your own head[07:30] - Josh's detailed narrative of what being "in your head" actually sounds like[12:50] - Making anxiety the least interesting thing in the room[15:50] - The attention "flashlight" metaphor and experimentation approach[17:00] - Josh's YouTube banner analogy for intrusive thoughts[18:40] - Addressing GAD and the belief that thinking is always helpful[25:00] - Powerful "did it anyway" story about postpartum OCD[29:00] - The role of distraction and attention flexibility[33:40] - Listener question about balancing allowing feelings vs. attention redirectionThis episode emphasizes that recovery isn't about achieving a thought-free mind, but rather developing a healthier relationship with your internal experience while engaging meaningfully with your life.---------Disordered Roundtables are here!

Episode Overview:In this episode, Guy and Michelle explore the concept of "accurate thinking with a positive bent" rather than just positive thinking, sparked by insights from Dr. Daniel Amen's interview on The Diary of a CEO podcast.Key Discussion Points:- The evolution of positive thinking from the 70s/80s self-help movement to present day- Scientific evidence of how negative thoughts physically affect brain structure- The connection between negative thinking and athletic performance/coordination- Why traditional positive thinking sometimes faces resistance- The power of accurate thinking with a positive bentNotable Research Discussion:Guy shares fascinating research from Dr. Daniel Amen about brain scans showing physical changes when someone engages in negative self-talk, particularly affecting:- Left temporal lobe- Left frontal lobe- Cerebellum (potentially explaining coordination issues during negative states)Practical Applications:- How to improve memory by changing negative self-talk- The importance of believable, accurate statements rather than unrealistic positive affirmations- Ways to observe and manage thoughts through meditation- The value of surrounding yourself with supportive peopleKey Quote:"It's not positive thinking. It's accurate thinking with a positive bent." - Dr. Daniel AmenExample of Accurate Thinking vs. Positive Thinking:Instead of saying "I'm bad at remembering names" or unrealistically claiming "I'm brilliant at names," try:"I used to struggle with names, but I'm getting better because I'm practicing and using techniques."Mentioned in this Episode:- The Diary of a CEO podcast with Stephen Bartlett- Dr. Daniel Amen's brain research- The Power of Appreciation by Noelle Nelson- Eckhart Tolle's cloud metaphor for thoughtsThe episode emphasises the importance of combining accuracy with optimism when working on self-improvement, rather than relying on unrealistic positive affirmations.

The thought itself is little more than nothing. It is just this little blip in the mind, arising and passing away. But, when they're unnoticed and we're identified with them, taking them to be self, we're giving them an enormous power in our lives.” – Joseph GoldsteinSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Diving into the unique journal of Marcus Aurelius when he was the most powerful man in the world from the book: Meditations -----2:40 - On a morning practiceWhen you wake up in the morning, tell yourself: The people I deal with today will be meddling, ungrateful, arrogant, dishonest, jealous, and surly… 7:25 - Protect your thoughtsThe things you think about determine the quality of your mind. Your soul takes on the color of your thoughts.8:10 - On being harmedChoose not to be harmed-and you won't feel harmed. Don't feel harmed – and you havent been.Nothing that goes on in anyone's else's mind can harm you. Nor can shifts and changes in the world around you. Then where is harm to be found? In your capacity to see it. Stop doing that and everything will be fine9:40 - A couple rules/practices to follow Ask yourself at every moment, ‘Is this necessary'When you need encouragement, think of the qualities the people around you have: this one's energy, that one's modesty, another's generosity, and so on. Nothing is as encouraging as when virtues are visibly embodied in the people around us, when we're practically showered with them. It's good to keep this in mind.14:15 On revengeThe best revenge is to not be like that.17:00 - Keep your philosophy readyDoctors keep their scalpels and other instruments handy, for emergencies. Keep your philosophy ready too ready to understand heaven and earth.18:15 - On asking for helpDon't be ashamed to need help. Like a soldier storming a wall, you have a mission to accomplish. And if you've been wounded and you need a comrade to pull you up? So what?”19:00 - On worrying about your reputationOr is it your reputation that's bothering you? But look at how soon we're all forgotten.So many who were remembered already forgotten, and those who remembered them are long gone.One Final Note/ChallengeJust as you overhear people saying that ‘the doctor prescribed such-and-such for him' (like riding, or cold baths, or walking barefoot…), say this: ‘Nature prescribed illness for me' Or blindness. Or the loss of a limb. Or whatever. There ‘prescribed' means something like ‘ordered, so as to further his recovery.' And so too here. What happens to each of us is ordered. It furthers our destiny.-----Check out my new book Chasing Greatness: Timeless Stories on the Pursuit of Excellence

Today on SelfKind with Erica Webb (that's me!), I'm responding to a topic request from a listener; one that I think is very relatable. Self-criticism, self-doubt, unkind and unhelpful thoughts ... why do we, at times, resort to this when we're worried about being criticised by others? Why do we ultimately try to beat them to it; harming ourselves before they can harm us?In this episode you'll hear some of my thoughts around this, including the questions you can explore to more deeply understand yourself (while fostering self-compassion and curiosity).You'll hear: Why the drive for certainty, safety, and control can lead us to behave and react in ways we may not predict or expectWhy tuning into the body can help us decode otherwise confusing thoughtsThe role of values in helping us shift patterns of behaviour that no longer alignThe vital role of curiosityWhy getting more deeply invested in your humanity is more helpful than trying to 'fix' yourself.Share your thoughts with me over on Instagram or via my website.

Is it toxic to badmouth positivity?Maybe. But if you know me, I like to stir the pot a little.Also, as part of the coaching and personal development industry, I feel a duty to call out harmful practices. That way, potential clients can recognize them, avoid them, and self-innoculate for those moments when they show up out of nowhere. (Yes, even when it's something I say.)It's time to burn down lies like:If you got cancer, you manifested it with negative thinkingBad things are happening because you let in the bad thoughtsThe whole point of life is to be happy, and it's actually possible to be happy all the timePersonal development means pushing away or ignoring negative experiences (others' and your own)We need to silence the low vibe parts of usSuzy reached her business/weight/dating goal faster because her thoughts are better than mineIn this episode, you'll learn why toxic positivity is such a hot trend, where it comes from, and what you can do when it shows up in your life.Resources Mentioned:My Instagram postNew Free Workshop:Slumber Party: Self-Hypnosis for Better SleepIn this two-hour workshop, you'll learn simple, evidence-based tools to help you fall sleep, stay asleep ... and even restore yourself without sleep.

We're worn out, y'all! We live in an exhausted society and it's because we're all hustling. I'm here to tell you to STOP HUSTLING. Do I mean you shouldn't work hard? No, you should work hard, but there is a huge difference between working hard and hustling. When you hustle, you're thinking small. This is what I like to call the “crumb” mentality. The crumb mentality is when we think there isn't enough to go around—because the world is limited—that we have to press, push, and scrape to get our part of whatever's out there. In this episode, I'll tell you how to stop hustling for crumbs and start thinking bigger about your life. This week: What is hustle culture and the crumb mentality Why persuasion is time wasted How to stop hustling and think bigger about your lifeThe importance of power waitingHow to deal with fear and negative self-thoughtsThe meme contest winner is revealedThis is one of my favorite quotes from this week's episode:"I'm not going to spend my energy trying to convince someone else that they need to like me, to date me, to be do business with me, to fill-in-the-blank with me. It's a waste of time. If people don't get you, celebrate you, and believe in you. Move on. Don't hustle to get their love, acceptance or whatever. I'm telling you, it's wasted time." – Kim  The Kim Gravel Show is a weekly podcast for women where you stop doubting and start believing in yourself.

Do you struggle with OCD? According to the World Health Organization, it is one of the top ten most debilitating disorders, but it is one of the most misdiagnosed. This means that many people with this disorder aren't getting the help they need. In this episode of From Survivor to Thriver, we have a special two-part episode with Zach Westerbeck, where we talk about the things that people don't know or understand about OCD, what it actually is, the truth about intrusive thoughts, and so much more. Zach Westerbeck is a Mental Health advocate, National speaker, College Success Coach, and author of “You're Not Alone”, who was diagnosed with an anxiety disorder in 2016. During that time period he experienced severe anxiety, deep depression, and thoughts of suicide. After hitting his rock bottom moment, he sought help and started to recover. Through his recovery process, he became Mental Health First Aid certified and now travels the country educating thousands of students on the fundamentals of mental health. Through his personal experiences and extensive research, he is able to relate and clearly articulate why now, more than ever, it is critical to understand how to manage your mental health. Zach has spoken at higher learning institutions such as Penn State, Georgia Tech, Purdue University, University of Arizona, to name a few.In today's episode we cover: What OCD really isWhen disorders like this manifestThe impact of intrusive thoughtsThe relationships that you have with your thoughtsBreaking compulsive patternsSigns of OCD in childrenExposure and response preventionWhy ERP therapy is so effectiveWe hope you enjoyed part one of our conversation with Zach.

Her tough times and years in the wilderness truly defined her and she shares her story to help other people view the world a little bit differently.  She is the co-founder of Louise McMilan Coaching, working with single women to help them get unstuck and reignite their self-belief and confidence.

For those of you who don't know, we're on early bird for “The Quantum Accelerator” program right now, a program where we focus on the energetic of manifestation and aligning your spiritual gifts. I also focus on teaching you how to work with your own energy in order to become an energetic alignment for the things you are calling in. If it's something you might be interested in feel free to reach out or go to my website for more information.  Now let's dive in… In this episode you'll get to know Diana D'Amato who's recently finished “The Quantum Accelerator”. Diana and I have known each other for many years, she was my yoga trainer in one of her studios and has recently made some big quantum leaps in my quantum accelerator program. When she started the program she was at rock bottom,  feeling not good enough and lost after closing her business of 19 years. Cut to, coming into a community where she started feeling the support she was lacking  and meeting a partner who is willing to “meet her in the middle” after “feeling unfulfilled for so long”. Simultaneously her father started showing up “in a very healing and supportive way” and she discovered her gifts in business. What is important about this is how she could break away from the patterns she was accustomed to having because of the energy work she started to do. It was all about the energy clearing work that helped her understand and be aware of her patterns so she could shift them.  As Diana says, “everything in my life is completely different now”...HIGHLIGHTSThe Quantum AcceleratorDiana's storyNot feeling worthyBeing more than a momNot having supportA team of womenQuantum leapsBeing conscious of your frequencyBeing able to express oneselfSimple energy shiftsClearing ancestral traumaYou are the authorityWe are not our thoughtsThe power of the Quantum toolsABOUT DIANADiana D'Amato is a vibrant and enthusiastic teacher of yoga, meditation, and Ayurveda.

In the full passage of 1 Corinthians 11:2-16, Paul focuses parts of the passage on each of these three groups in the church:Verses 3-9: on the converted Jews.Verses 11-12: on everyone in church.Verses 13-15: on the converted non-Jews.Here is my paraphrase of verses 10-12:Verse 10 - Application of the principle for Christian womenTherefore, a woman ought to have authority over her own head, because of the angels.Verses 11-12 Theological basis of the principle of unityNevertheless, neither is man independent of woman, nor woman independent of man, in the Lord. For as woman came from man, even so man also comes through woman; but all come from God.Prior to verse 10, Paul defends the principle that a Christian woman is a member of the body of Christ in every way. Then, in verse 10, he applies this principle in a simple affirmation.He ends verse 10 by adding another principle that argues in favor of the full status of women in ministry (those who are “praying and prophesying,” or preaching and teaching). In verses 11-12, he puts the matter in theological perspective. (1) women and men share in reciprocal relationships and (2) God is over all.Studying the grammar of 1 Corinthians 11, we note the following developments in the passage:Verses 4-6 are a unit that should be set off with quotation marksVerse 7a is a thought by itselfVerse 7b is a different thought followed by two verses that are subordinate to it and elaborate on itVerse 8 is subordinate to 7 – it is introduced by: “for” Verse 9 is subordinate to 7 as well – “for indeed”This structure is rare in the New Testament but is used six times in 1 Corinthians (pointing this out would be worth a “home run”)Verse 10 is introduced in Greek by “therefore” and is the culmination of this series of thoughtsThe verb in verse 10, “ought” is the same one used in verse 7, where a man “ought not” cover his head (another home run observation)Based on this here are my summary thoughts:A Christian woman is as equally obligated and empowered as a Christian man to not cover her head when ministering in church.GO DEEPER:I invite you to read the foundational study in Genesis 2-3 that unlocks the meaning of 1 Corinthians 11. It is The Book of Eden, Genesis 2-3 (God didn't curse Eve (or Adam) or limit woman in any way).
