Podcasts about transforming your relationship

What happens when you put 88 financially intentional people on a cruise ship headed to Alaska? Apparently, a lot of really good conversations, a few late nights, and at least one episode of the Extreme Personal Finance Show recorded on the fly with a phone crammed between two guys.This week, Chris is joined by returning guest Kevin Sebesta, recorded live aboard the FinTalks Cruise somewhere off the coast of the North Pacific. No script. No studio. Just two dudes unpacking what they learned from days of deep conversations with some of the most intentional people in the FI community.If you've ever wondered whether events like this are worth it, this episode will answer that question pretty quickly.What is FinTalks? FinTalks is a paid membership community started by Amberly Grant, built around a weekly Tuesday night discussion group where financially intentional people connect, share, and grow together. No random strangers offering stock tips. Just smart, thoughtful people willing to invest in their own growth and the growth of others. Here's what Chris and Kevin talk about in this one:Living Your 50s While You Still Can One of the most powerful reminders from the trip came through conversations about using your healthiest years intentionally. Inspired by the book Die With Zero and its concept of "time buckets," Chris reflects on why the activities that require physical strength and energy need to happen now, not someday. Kevin drives it home: once there's a five at the front of your age, you're not youngish anymore.Health is the Real Currency Multiple conversations on the cruise circled back to health. Members were skipping elevators, logging stair climbs from deck one to deck 14 or 15, and tracking fitness goals alongside financial ones. One community member named Keith was reportedly racking up a hundred flights of stairs a day. REM sleep, joint health, staying strong enough to do the things you want to do at 60 and beyond. Health kept coming up because the community gets it.The Price You Pay Is Not the Experience You Get Kevin makes a sharp observation here: people in inside cabins with no windows had the same level of enjoyment as people in premium suites with balconies. Because most of the experience happens outside the room, in conversations, at events, on excursions. You don't have to spend a premium to get full value from an experience.The Year of Experiments Chris met a 31-year-old at dinner who had intentionally declared a "year of experiments," committing to try things he normally wouldn't so he could arrive at 70 without regret. That conversation hit hard. It connects directly to why Chris retired early: he wanted into life, not just out of work.The One Sheet Dashboard A community member named Wally gave a presentation on his single-page life tracking system, covering finances, health habits, relationship goals, even the number of game nights with his partner each year. Whether or not a granular tracking system fits your personality, the concept of having visibility into your whole life, not just your money, sparked something for Chris. Kevin, a self-described slacker on spreadsheets, still took value from seeing how a different personality type uses structure to stay aligned.He Time, She Time, We Time A nod to Fritz Gilbert of The Retirement Manifesto, this framework came up in discussions about life design for couples. Shared goals matter, but so do individual pursuits. Not everything needs to be a joint project.Getting Out of Your Comfort Zone Chris admitted that even at an event full of community members, walking up to someone he had never met and introducing himself is still uncomfortable. He did it anyway. Kevin shares that despite appearing effortlessly social, he is genuinely an introvert who becomes something close to an extrovert only around this community. The concept of being an ambivert, someone whose social energy shifts based on environment, came up and it turns out it might be a real thing.The Phases of the FI Journey Kevin breaks this down clearly: there are people on this cruise who retired 10 years ago, people who retired last year, people who are one or two years from leaving, and people who are five to ten years out still building their foundation. Every phase has different challenges, different questions, and different energy. The beauty of being in a diverse community is that someone at every stage of the journey is in the room.Community Over Everything The Harvard Health Study's long-running research found that community, not finances or status, is one of the strongest predictors of wellbeing. Kevin references this and points to something deeper: he knows at least 20 people in this community he could call for real help, people who would show up. He shares a story about community members dropping everything to drive to a car accident on the highway to help a fellow FI friend. That is not a Facebook group. That is family.The Contrast: FinTalks Cruise vs. Monsters of Rock Cruise These two dudes have been on both. The Monsters of Rock Cruise had a built-in conversation starter everywhere you went. This cruise, surrounded by 3,900 non-FinTalks passengers, felt completely different. Outside of their group, Chris spoke to maybe two people in five days. Kevin counted three conversations, one of which was about a ham wrap. The lesson: shared community creates connection. Without it, you can be on a ship with thousands of people and feel completely alone.This Episode Also Includes:The word "Destinesia" (and what it means)A secondhand Chris Holmes mashed potato storyKevin's crosswalk philosophyWhy Kevin does not care what you think of him, and why that might actually be a superpowerDebate over what a rosary is! Contact Chris:https://heavymetal.moneyhttps://www.facebook.com/MoneyHeavyMetalhttps://x.com/MoneyHeavyMetalhttps://www.instagram.com/chrislugerhttps://www.tiktok.com/@heavymetalmoneyemail: chris at heavymetal.moneyResources and Links:FinTalks Tuesdayshttps://www.amberlygrant.com/fintalksConnect with Amberly Granthttps://www.linkedin.com/in/amberlygrant/  Die With Zero: Getting All You Can from Your Money and Your Lifeby Bill Perkins https://a.co/d/09vOyNYJhttps://campfi.orgYour Money or Your Life: 9 Steps to Transforming Your Relationship with Money and Achieving Financial Independenceby Vicki Robin,, Joe Dominguez, Mr. Money Mustachehttps://a.co/d/0hA5QO98Retirement Manifesto (Fritz Gilbert): https://theretirementmanifesto.comThe Importance of Community | Finding your Tribe and Sense of Belonging | E50 https://youtu.be/-HouhdoimagThe importance of connections - Harvard School of Public Health Studyhttps://hsph.harvard.edu/news/the-importance-of-connections-ways-to-live-a-longer-healthier-life/Snigletshttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SnigletContact Chris:https://heavymetal.moneyhttps://www.instagram.com/heavy_metal_money/https://www.youtube.com/@heavymetalmoneyhttps://www.facebook.com/chrislugeremail: chris at heavymetal.money

How can healthcare professionals transform burnout and trauma into a revitalized life and practice?In this special episode of Heartline: Changemaking in Healthcare, Dr. Andrea Austin reads from her book Revitalized, focusing on the chapter "The Revitalization." She reflects on her own soul-level burnout at the end of the pandemic, sharing a formula for change: inflection point + inner work + clarity = revitalization. Drawing from personal experiences and expert insights, she emphasizes embracing the past's pain as part of growth, avoiding trauma loops, and intentionally "doing the work" for self-improvement.You'll hear how to:Recognize burnout as a chronic issue requiring inner reflection, not just quick fixes, and frame it as an opportunity for revitalization beyond "bouncing back."Differentiate top-down therapies (like CBT and talk therapy) from bottom-up approaches (like EMDR, somatic experiencing, and art therapy) for trauma healing, especially in high-stress fields like medicine.Understand coaching as a future-focused partnership for unlocking potential, while knowing when to seek therapy first, given high rates of PTSD (40%) and depression (30%) among healthcare workers.Navigate "VUCA" (volatility, uncertainty, complexity, ambiguity) in healthcare, including life quakes like job loss or health crises, and avoid maladaptive coping like overconsumption or addictions.Build vulnerability in hard conversations, reflect on perfectionism, and beware predatory coaching programs while prioritizing ethical, supportive resources.If you're a healthcare professional grappling with burnout, trauma, or the desire for more fulfillment, this episode offers empathetic guidance, reflective questions, and actionable steps to craft your own revitalization.

Have you ever felt that deep longing to step away from your practice—not for a long weekend or a quick vacation, but for a real pause? A stretch of time where you can rest, reset, and reconnect with yourself outside of the constant giving that comes with this work? That's exactly what Maegan Megginson and I explore in today's episode. Why Sabbaticals Matter—Beyond “Time Off” Most of us only hear the word sabbatical in academic circles, but as Maegan reminds us, its root is “Sabbath”—rest. Somewhere along the way, rest became another productivity tool, something to “use well” rather than simply experience. As therapists and practice owners, we need something different. A true sabbatical isn't for catching up on house projects or writing endless to-do lists—it's about completely reimagining your relationship with time, worth, and spaciousness. Transforming Your Relationship with Time: The Power of Sabbaticals for Therapists (00:06:57) The 4 Types of Sabbaticals for Small Business Owners (00:12:12) Healing & Self-Discovery During Time Away (00:17:43) Productivity Culture and Its Roots (00:20:38) Business Challenges to Taking a Sabbatical (00:25:18) Adjusting Business Systems to Integrate a Transformative Experience (00:29:45) Modeling Self-Care for Others (00:35:24) Collective Sabbatical for Conscious Shifts (00:36:45) Sabbatical Journey and Integration (00:40:27) Sabbatical School & Financial Freedom Why This Feels So Hard—And So Important Why This Feels So Hard—And So Important I know the fears that come up, because I've had them too: “My practice will fall apart.” “Clients will leave.” “I can't afford a break.” “People will judge me.” But Maegan and I both believe this wholeheartedly: your business can handle you stepping away for four weeks—and you can handle it too. Preparing your practice for your absence actually builds strength and resilience into your systems. And in truth, four weeks is a tiny blip in your clients' lives. For many of them, it may even model something deeply healing. Sabbaticals as an Act of Rebellion Stepping back isn't indulgent—it's radical. It pushes against the cultural message that your worth depends on your output. It shows your clients, your colleagues, your kids, and the people who look up to you that it's possible to reclaim time, energy, and humanity in a world that constantly asks for more. Your rest creates ripple effects. When you care for yourself, you give others permission to imagine a different way too. This conversation reminded me just how essential meaningful time away is—not only for our health and longevity, but for the stability of our businesses and the well-being of the communities we support. If you're feeling stretched thin, burnt out, or disconnected from yourself, this might be the moment to gently ask: What do I truly need right now? And… What might become possible if I gave myself four full weeks to breathe? Ready to Improve your Business Money Skills? Are you a Solo Private Practice Owner?

Who am I then? The one who sees that. -Eckhart TolleChapters0:26 Introduction to Intrusive Thoughts1:58 The Connection Between Rumination and Intrusive Thoughts3:35 Science of Intrusive Thoughts9:29 Embracing the Uninvited10:48 The Power of Acceptance13:13 The Role of Self-Compassion15:28 Transforming Your Relationship with Thoughts17:10 Practicing Mindfulness and Acceptance18:15 Conclusion and Final ThoughtsSummaryIn this episode, I delve into the topic of intrusive thoughts, a subject that has been met with many questions and misunderstandings. I explore the very nature of these unwanted thoughts that can make us feel as though our minds have turned against us, trapping us in an overwhelming cycle that seems relentless and distressing. I invite listeners to consider the possibility that intrusive thoughts do not define us, and that they can lose their power when we change our perspective on them.I discuss how the natural response to intrusive thoughts is often to push them away or suppress them, a method that ultimately leads to an even stronger rebound effect. Through the lens of neuroscience, I explain how the brain's default mode network can create loops of self-focused thinking that keep us stuck in rumination. Many of us experience a cycle of negative thinking that not only intensifies our distress but also reinforces the persistence of these intrusive thoughts. I emphasize that becoming aware of this cycle can provide us with the hope we need to navigate these tumultuous moments.Drawing on insights from Eckhart Tolle, I illustrate the importance of understanding that we are not our thoughts. Instead, we are the observers of them, which can be a liberating realization. By accepting our intrusive thoughts without judgment, we allow them to exist as transient blips in our mind rather than as representatives of our character. I explain that emotional tagging by the amygdala can make these thoughts feel sticky, yet we can learn to embrace the uninvited rather than resist them.#anxietycoachespodcast #intrusivethoughts #anxiety #mentalhealth #mindfulness #selfcompassion #braintraining #rumination #innerpeace #lettinggo #stressrelief #emotionalregulation #neuroscience #eckharttolle #cognitivebehavioraltherapy #radicalacceptance #meditation #copingskills #rewireyourbrain #mindovermatter #anxietyrecovery #overthinking #intrusive #unwantedthoughts #calmyourmind #anxietyhelp #breathe #letitgo #thoughtwork #becominganobserver #ACP #GinaRyanSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

On this episode of Business Breakthroughs with Faith Mariah, I discuss:  February (or any time) can be your new January: If the start of the year didn't go as planned, you can reset and start fresh whenever you're ready. Goal-setting and intention-setting are always available to you. Your relationship with time shapes your experience: Feeling rushed, overwhelmed, or like there's never enough time is often a mindset issue. Shifting to a belief that "time works for me" can transform how you approach productivity and life. Slowing down helps you speed up: Taking time to plan, journal, and reset can actually lead to more efficiency and better results in business and life, rather than constantly feeling behind. Genius ideas need space: Million-dollar ideas come when you create mental space, rather than being caught in stress and urgency. Making time for reflection and rest can lead to major breakthroughs. You have the power to change any experience: If something feels “sticky” or unsatisfying in your life, it's often because you've given your power away. By reframing your thoughts, you can create a different experience in any area—whether it's time, business, relationships, or daily routines. ⚡️ Join Creator Camp HERE: https://www.faithmariah.com/social-media-membership ⚡️ Join the Becoming Boss Mastermind HERE.  https://faithmariah.mykajabi.com/becoming-boss-mastermind-waitlist ⚡️ Check out The Empowered Slacker Society: https://www.empoweredslacker.com/ ⚡️ Join the Free Facebook Group https://www.facebook.com/groups/581614028960508 ⚡️ Instagram  https://www.instagram.com/the.faith.mariah/ ⚡️ TikTok  https://www.tiktok.com/@the.faith.mariah ⚡️ www.faithmariah.com

It's not about fixing emotional eating—it's about loving yourself through it.Marla Mervis Hartmann, is a coach, TedX speaker and creator of Love Your Body, Love Yourself. She shares her personal journey of struggling with restrictive dieting, over-exercising, and body dissatisfaction despite having a healthy physique. Women face societal pressures and diet culture that often lead to a cycle of criticism and control, particularly as the body changes through different life stages like menopause.Marla says that all women should practice self-compassion and avoid being overly critical of our bodies. Healing involves slowing down, tuning into what the body truly needs, and addressing underlying fears of acceptance and authenticity. It is very important how we speak to ourselves, what we push into ourselves emotionally because that will reflect on the eating habits. Personal stories in this episode are heart-touching and "Death by chocolate," captures the emotional complexities tied to food. Marla shared tips for cultivating self-love and body acceptance. We are all in different shapes and sizes, but what matters is the peace and love you give to yourself. Show Notes:

Welcome to today's enlightening episode, "From Reactive to Responsive: The Key to Transforming Your Relationship." There's a timeless quote, often attributed to Viktor Frankl, that encapsulates the essence of our discussion: "Between stimulus and response, there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and our freedom." Have you ever felt the sting of regret after reacting impulsively to a loved one? Do you yearn for the freedom to respond with calm and clarity instead of reflexively lashing out? You're not alone. Many of us crave the ability to navigate our emotions and interactions more mindfully. In this episode, we'll explore how we can shift from reacting out of habit to responding with intention, especially in the heat of the moment. We'll delve into the profound impact of finding that crucial space between stimulus and response, and how it can transform our relationships and personal growth. We'll draw from the tools of Nonviolent Communication (NVC) to guide us in this transformation. Learn practical steps to slow down, identify your thoughts and feelings, and understand your needs and those of your partner. Discover how to make empowered requests that foster connection and mutual understanding. Join me as I share personal stories (including moments of my own reactivity that led to regret), and discuss the powerful journey towards becoming more responsive. This episode is packed with insights and actionable advice to help you build stronger, more loving relationships. Ready to transform your interactions and embrace a more mindful approach to communication? Tune in and discover the freedom that comes from choosing your response.

Transforming Your Relationship with Food and Exercise: Insights from Laura Hinton Weight loss can be achieved by changing our eating habits and our relationship with food, rather than fixating on strict diets and clean eating. Laura Hinton shares her journey with Tonya Leigh of losing 50 pounds by shifting her mindset around food. She stressed that she didn't have to eat only "clean" or "good for you" foods to lose weight. Instead, she focused on consuming the same foods she had been eating but in moderation and with a fresh perspective. Laura's story underscores the importance of impartial evaluation and self-acceptance when it comes to food choices. She mentioned transitioning from self-judgment to self-love, which ultimately yielded more effective results in her weight loss journey. By approaching food with love and grace, she was able to make sustainable changes without feeling deprived or restricted. When individuals shift their focus from self-criticism to self-acceptance, they are more likely to make healthier choices, listen to their bodies, and approach weight loss from a place of empowerment rather than punishment. This shift in mindset can lead to enduring results and a more positive relationship with food, exercise, and self-image. The 3 Big Weight Loss Myths: Myth #1: Clean Eating for Weight Loss Myth #2: Exercise Intensity and Weight Loss Myth #3: Self-Criticism and Weight Loss Talking  Points: 00:51 Weight loss myths debunked. 05:44 Body image and weight struggles. 10:31 Society of immediate gratification. 14:47 Surprising lessons from weight loss. 17:43 Relationship with food changes. 26:05 Liberation from food obsession. 29:26 Debunking clean eating myth. 34:58 Exercise mindset and expectations. 38:35 Exercise as punishment mindset. 43:05 Self-love and weight loss. Quotes: "But the really pivotal moment was when I got engaged and that was 2008.  I suddenly had this fear and panic that I was going to be fat, quote unquote, for my wedding." "We want the quick fix now. We want to lose weight by the wedding. We want to lose weight by bikini season. And we have just set ourself up for this toxic cycle of white knuckling." "So 100%, the most surprising thing to me was that I'm in charge of the way that I feel." "Well, I think the biggest thing that changed for me in terms of my relationship with food is that food is no longer a source of comfort." "There aren't good or bad foods. There's just food." "In a way, it was like a dopamine hit. It was fun for the first day or two thinking about this new diet that may work." "You can still have pizza, but instead of eating half the pizza, we're gonna have two slices and see how that goes." "So many people, especially in the diet industry, they use exercise as a form of punishment." "Yeah, it makes me think of one of my favorite Abraham quotes where they say, there is no happy ending to an unhappy journey."

In this episode: money against mindset, fear setting, FI events, gap years, slow travel, and living intentionally. Everyone's relationship with money is different, just as everyones path to FI looks different, but how do you unlearn behaviors that could be holding you back? This week we are joined by Amy Minkley to discuss how finding FI changed her life while abroad, as well as the the importance of unlearning and breaking free of internalized stress when it comes to money. A large part of the FI journey is implementing new habits and the lessons you pick up along the way. However, an even larger and sometimes harder part of this journey requires you to be introspective and take an honest look at your relationship with money. While you can't go back and change the past, the beauty of FI is that you learn to make changes to ensure the future you want! No matter what your background, the path to FI is one that benefits everyone, because it not only gives you control of your life, but allows for independence to create the future you desire. So while it may feel comfortable to approach this journey by thinking of all the ways things can go wrong, remember to think of all the ways things can go right!  Amy Minkley: Website: fifreedomretreats.com Mailing List: Get In Touch With Amy Here!
