In this bold and birthday episode, we get real about what it actually looks like to grow after trauma—and how that growth leads to becoming unfuckwithable. We're not talking about surface-level healing or performance-based self-care. We're talking about reclaiming self-respect, choosing power, and walking away from anything that dishonors your healing. In This Episode: What it means to be unfuckwithable after PTSD Why self-respect is power Letting go of passive-aggressive patterns and low-effort energy A special birthday reflection from Dr. Deb A powerful affirmation to close the episode This episode is a permission slip to: Cut ties with toxic patterns Stop explaining your worth Choose yourself with radical clarity Because when you've survived the unthinkable, you get to protect your peace without apology.

In this insightful episode, Dr. Jake Porter shares his expertise on sex addiction and betrayal trauma through the powerful lens of the theme Anchored in Hope. Drawing from neuroscience, attachment theory, and spiritual truth, Dr. Jake unpacks how understanding the brain's role in addiction and trauma can offer a renewed sense of hope to those feeling stuck in cycles of pain. He explores how couples can begin to rebuild trust after betrayal, and how healing attachment wounds leads to healthier, more secure relationships. Dr. Jake emphasizes the importance of integrating psychology, spirituality, and neuroscience for a holistic recovery journey. With practical steps and compassionate wisdom, he offers guidance for individuals and couples working to restore emotional and relational health. Whether you're in recovery, supporting someone who is, or simply seeking deeper understanding, this conversation is rich with hope. Dr. Jake also shares why the Pure Desire Summit is a must-attend for anyone pursuing lasting healing and freedom.Resources:Register for Summit 2025 HereDr. Porter's Website Dr. Porter's Organization GET STARTEDFree eBook: 7 Keys To Understanding Betrayal TraumaFree eBook: 5 Steps to Freedom From PornSchedule Your Free 15-Minute Counseling ConsultationJoin A Pure Desire Online Group SOCIALSFollow us on FacebookFollow us on InstagramFollow us on X (Twitter)

“Just because it's invisible doesn't mean it's not real. I believed me. And that changed everything," Dr. Deb Lindh Welcome to PTSD Awareness Month. In this powerful opening episode, Dr. Deb Lindh shares a deeply personal story—what it was like to ask for help and be dismissed, disbelieved, and ignored… and what happened next. This is more than a story about pain—it's about resilience, self-trust, and the power of breaking silence. From school counselors and troop leaders to one trusted therapist who finally named it—Dr. Deb takes us on a raw, reflective journey through stigma, invalidation, and ultimately, self-empowerment. Because while asking for help is hard, not being believed leaves a wound few talk about. Until now.

In this special episode of PTSD and Beyond®, we pause for a moment of reflection, grounding, and presence—with a new original poem titled What Comes Next. This piece speaks to the quiet courage it takes to keep going, the uncertainty that comes after survival, and the space between endings and beginnings. For anyone who's ever asked, "Now what?" or sat in the stillness waiting for clarity to arrive—this one is for you. We explore: The emotional weight and liberation of asking what comes next Why healing often lives in the in-between moments A guided reflection to carry the message of the poem into your week

Dr. Kerry McAvoy returns to talk about what it means to heal from narcissistic abuse. Not just from an intellectual standpoint, but healing your nervous system, in your relationships, and in your relationship to yourself. Healing is not quick, it's not tidy, and it's definitely not linear. Dr. Kerry and I talk about how women have been conditioned to serve, to disappear, to manage the emotions of everyone around us just to maintain the illusion of peace. We explore what emotional fusion looks like, what healthy relationships look like, and what it means to reconnect with Self throughout your healing journey.

We are doing a reairing this week of episode 80 of Diverse Thinking Different Learning in which we talked with Dr. Barry Prizant. This episode is being revisited at a perfect time because this is Autism Awareness and Acceptance Month. In this episode, Dr. Prizant helps us understand why it's important to stop labeling certain behaviors in children as intentional defiance or difficulty. Dr. Barry Prizant is a speech-language pathologist with nearly five decades of experience working with individuals with autism and their families. He serves as a Visiting Scholar at Brown University and directs Childhood Communication Services, and he is widely published, including The SCERTS Model as well as multiple books and over 130 scholarly works. Dr. Prizant has delivered more than 900 presentations worldwide, including twice at the United Nations, and he has received many awards for his contributions to the field. The truth (as Dr. Prizant discusses) is that challenging behaviors are not always just the child being deliberately defiant for the sake of it. It is sometimes the child's way of dealing with anxiety and/or emotional overwhelm, and Dr. Prizant discusses this alongside insights from his book Uniquely Human: A Different Way of Seeing Autism. Encouraging us to reconsider how we interpret challenging behaviors, he suggests that we not try to eliminate these actions but rather try to better understand the reason(s) behind them. Dr. Prizant stresses the fact that real progress comes not from suppressing behaviors but from nurturing a child's strengths, enhancing their abilities, and providing a supportive environment. After all, in doing so, children can begin to display more positive behaviors and enjoy a greater sense of well-being. Throughout the conversation, we also explore why it's important to take a closer look at children's interests and passions which are far too often misunderstood or undervalued and how we can use those passions as gateways to growth and learning, so whether you are a parent, teacher, or caregiver, this episode offers valuable insights into how to connect with and support children in more empowering ways.   Show Notes: [0:05] - Karen announces a new podcast schedule and reintroduces Dr. Prizant's episode on kids' passions. [4:35] - Dr. Prizant highlights his book's update and its alignment with evolving autism advocacy. [6:09] - Decades of developmental training helped shape Dr. Prizant's strength-based, human-centered view of autism. [8:14] - Understanding autistic behavior requires empathy and rejecting interpretations such as “noncompliance.” [10:05] - Dr. Prizant urges professionals to self-reflect and further explore the reasons behind challenging behaviors. [12:31] - Dr. Prizant argues that children cannot learn or connect effectively when overwhelmed emotionally. [15:50] - Echolalia and personal interests can be strengths that lead to communication, connection, and self-esteem. [19:06] - Passion-based learning can evolve into broader knowledge when adults nurture and expand children's interests. [22:47] - Dr. Prizant points out how dismissing a child's passion shuts down connection. [24:13] - Children's deep interests can enrich families and communities, even guiding future career aspirations and expertise. [26:21] - Nurturing a child's interests can lead to connection, skill development, and social engagement. [29:37] - Some fascinations in childhood fade, but others evolve into lifelong passions or hobbies. [31:47] - Highlighting a child's strengths can reshape peer perception and lead to more inclusion. [34:42] - Karen praises Uniquely Human for transforming fear and uncertainty into understanding and hope. [35:19] - Dr. Prizant now narrates his audiobook and co-hosts a podcast with an audio engineer who has autism.   Links and Related Resources: Episode 25: Raising Differently Wired Kids with Joy and Confidence with Debbie Reber Episode 43: Building Social Competence and Enhancing Social Skills with Dr. Elizabeth Laugeson Episode 80: Turning Kids' Passions and Enthusiasms into Superpowers with Barry Prizant, Ph.D., CCC-SLP Uniquely Human: Updated and Expanded: A Different Way of Seeing Autism by Barry Prizant, Ph.D.   Connect with Us: Get on our Email List Book a Consultation Get Support and Connect with a ChildNEXUS Provider Register for Our Self-Paced Mini Courses: Support for Parents Who Have Children with ADHD, Anxiety, or Dyslexia    Connect with Dr. Barry Prizant: Dr. Prizant's Website Dr. Prizant's LinkedIn Page Dr. Prizant's Facebook Page Uniquely Human Podcast

In this episode, we explore the transformative power of boldness—not in the traditional sense of taking risks or making big leaps, but in reconnecting with ourselves. Boldness is about rediscovering the parts of us that trauma and life may have dimmed. It's about being unapologetically YOU again. We discuss how boldness can be an act of healing and growth, and how small, intentional acts of courage can lead us back to who we truly are. Tune in to hear practical tips for reclaiming your boldness, backed by research on how boldness supports emotional resilience and post-traumatic growth. Get ready to reconnect with yourself and step into the boldest version of you! Key Points: Boldness as Reconnection: Boldness isn't just about taking risks, it's about reclaiming the parts of ourselves we've lost or forgotten. Research on Boldness and Healing: Discover how boldness is linked to emotional resilience, post-traumatic growth, and Core Self Reclamation Therapy. 7 Ways to Reconnect with Your Boldness: Practical steps for stepping back into your boldest self. Remember a time you felt most you. Break the "waiting" pattern. Dress like the person you want to be. Speak your truth. Do the thing you've been dreaming about. Reclaim something you gave up on. Stop apologizing for being yourself. Mediocrity vs. Boldness: Why playing small never leads to greatness and how embracing boldness can lead to true fulfillment and joy. When was the last time you did something bold? Not reckless, not for anyone else—but for YOU? ❤️ Share the Podcast: If today's episode resonated with you, share it with someone who could use a reminder that they're not alone.

Dr. Steven Stein, world-renowned clinical psychologist, best-selling author, and MHS founder, consults for military, corporate, and TV shows, specializing in psychological assessment and emotional intelligence. He also hosts the podcast Work Therapy. In this episode, Dr. Steven explores how EI has evolved since its early days and why some leaders still underestimate its impact. Steven explains what leaders often overlook when developing their emotional intelligence and why traits like empathy and self-awareness are more important than ever. He also reveals the hidden factors that differentiate high-performing leaders from those who struggle under pressure. Through real-world examples—including a fascinating case study with the U.S. Air Force—Steven demonstrates how improving EI can directly enhance leadership effectiveness and retention. He also addresses the challenges of maintaining emotional intelligence in high-stress situations and how leaders can foster resilience and adaptability within their teams. As the workplace continues to shift with remote work, AI-driven decision-making, and evolving company cultures, Steven shares actionable strategies for leaders to build trust, authenticity, and engagement in their organizations. Whether you're a business leader, coach, or aspiring executive, this conversation is packed with valuable lessons on how emotional intelligence shapes leadership success.     Key Takeaways [02:22] Dr. Steven Stein shares that beyond his public achievements, he also leads a 12-piece jazz-rock band, highlighting the intersection of music and leadership. [03:55] Emotional intelligence (EI) has evolved significantly, moving from skepticism to a widely accepted concept influencing leadership, teamwork, and individual performance across various industries. [06:50] A critical aspect of leadership is developing empathy, actively listening, and understanding the emotions of those around you to enhance relationships and decision-making. [09:11] Under stress, leaders may become less empathetic and more directive, which can harm relationships and team dynamics. Maintaining emotional intelligence under pressure is crucial for effective leadership. [12:49] Resilient leaders and first responders thrive under high-stress situations by embracing the "Three Cs": Commitment (to a bigger purpose), Challenge (viewing obstacles as solvable problems), and Control (focusing on what can be influenced). [18:53] As AI and algorithms increasingly influence decision-making, emotional intelligence remains a crucial human advantage, offering insights and adaptability that machines cannot replicate. [22:51] A landmark study with the U.S. Air Force found that emotional intelligence training significantly improved recruiter retention rates from 50% to 92%, demonstrating the tangible impact of EI in the workplace. [29:20] Purpose-driven organizations with emotionally intelligent leadership experience significantly lower turnover rates, as employees feel valued and aligned with the company's mission. [31:47] The shift to remote work has increased the need for authentic leadership. Employees are now more likely to leave companies rather than just their managers if they lack trust in organizational leadership. [33:44] Key leadership traits for retaining employees include authenticity, respect, clear communication, and allowing employees autonomy while offering guidance and support. [38:07] Many leaders struggle to delegate due to a fear of losing control or a perfectionist mindset. Effective leaders recognize their strengths and empower others to handle areas where they are less skilled. [41:57] Leaders should be aware of employees' personal struggles without trying to solve them directly, instead offering support and resources to help them navigate challenges. [41:26] Closing quote: Remember “Emotional intelligence is your ability to recognize and understand emotions in yourself and others and your ability to use this awareness to manage your behavior and relationships. ” —  Travis Bradberry   Quotable Quotes "Great leaders master the art of empathy." "Under pressure, emotional intelligence is often the first thing to slip. The best leaders stay self-aware and maintain composure, even in high-stress situations." "Resilience comes down to the 'Three Cs': Commitment to a greater purpose, viewing obstacles as challenges rather than threats, and focusing on what you can control." "Organizations thrive when leadership is authentic. Employees don't just leave bad managers anymore—they leave companies that lack purpose and integrity." "Emotions play a crucial role in decision-making. The best leaders don't suppress their emotions; they understand and use them to make better choices." "The best workplaces foster autonomy and respect. Give people ownership of their work, and you'll see creativity, motivation, and engagement soar." "Leadership isn't about having all the answers; it's about empowering the right people to find the best solutions." "Delegation isn't about losing control—it's about recognizing where others can excel and trusting them to contribute their expertise." "The true test of leadership is how well you handle uncertainty. Those who adapt and evolve will always stay ahead." "Support your people, but don't try to be their personal problem solver. A great leader provides resources and guidance without overstepping boundaries." “Emotional intelligence is your ability to recognize and understand emotions in yourself and others and your ability to use this awareness to manage your behavior and relationships. ” —  Travis Bradberry Resources Mentioned The Leadership Podcast | Sponsored by | Rafti Advisors.

When the road stretches out in front of us with weeks or months of effort, it can feel daunting, even setting us up to feel like we're falling behind. But what if we paused… and shifted our focus? What if success wasn't about doing everything, but about doing one thing, one micro-action at a time? In this episode, we explore personal stories and practical strategies about the Power of One—how small, consistent actions can create momentum and build sustainable healing.

We are excited to have Samantha Levy, PhD join the show again this week to discuss Functional Neurological Disorder (FND). Dr. Samantha Levy is a clinical psychologist specializing in youth with chronic pain disorders. She uses a biopsychosocial approach to address both physical and emotional struggles, working with children, families, and parents to help them align the mind and body for improved functioning. Dr. Levy also runs parent groups, writes a parenting blog for Creative Healing for Youth in Pain, and works as a psychologist for Whole Child LA. Functional neurological disorder (FND) is a condition in which often debilitating neurological symptoms appear without a clear medical cause, and this episode helps make some sense of FND, from the ways it manifests (paralysis, seizures, sensory disruptions) to the underlying emotional and psychological factors that ultimately shape it. We explore why FND tends to surface in individuals with a history of anxiety, depression, trauma, and/or other medical conditions and how social media and peers, particularly during the COVID-19 pandemic, have played a role in its seeming to be more common. In this episode, you will gain insight into how staying calm, validating emotions, and avoiding reinforcement of symptoms can help support recovery. Dr. Levy helps us understand that treatment for FND is not a one-size-fits-all approach. We discuss the importance of a multidisciplinary approach instead, including individual therapy to address emotional triggers, physical therapy to rebuild control over the body, and family therapy to create a stable support system. We also stress how schools and healthcare providers play a key role in recovery, and we explore strategies to ensure that the right team is in place. This episode of the podcast ultimately offers a message of hope – that FND can feel overwhelming, but with the right interventions, many children see significant improvement, and the experience can even lead to personal growth for the entire family!   Show Notes: [2:46] - Dr. Levy explains how FND causes real neurological symptoms without medical explanation and has historically been misdiagnosed. [4:49] - FND can involve paralysis, sensory loss, and/or seizures, resulting from the brain misinterpreting signals. [7:14] - FND often affects individuals with anxiety and can spread via social influence. [10:13] - Dr. Levy discusses how pandemic-related stress and social media exposure contributed to FND symptoms. [12:22] - Dr. Levy argues that identifying emotional, physical, and environmental triggers for FND episodes helps prevent and reduce symptoms. [15:14] - To avoid reinforcing FND symptoms, parents should minimize attention during non-epileptic episodes. [18:45] - Professional guidance is very important for parents who have children with FND. [19:19] - Encouraging open emotional expression helps children with FND take on triggers. [22:43] - Therapy for teens with FND tends to address anxiety, trauma, and coping strategies. [25:22] - Dr. Levy discusses how physical therapy, guided imagery, and emotional validation help teens with FND regain body confidence. [28:38] - Dr. Levy reflects on how a child's FND episodes decreased significantly after shifting family dynamics. [30:32] - Overprotectiveness can actually worsen FND symptoms, so teens should maintain safe, independent activities. [33:39] - Parents should seek support themselves because their stress can worsen their child's FND symptoms. [35:45] - Dr. Levy points out that FND can be a wake-up call, prompting families to develop healthier ways to handle emotions. [38:00] - Dr. Levy reflects on how a girl's involuntary kicking symbolized suppressed anger, stressing a need for emotional expression. [41:27] - Various resources such as reactive programs and CHIP webinars help provide support for FND treatment.

"I thought my job was to save my daughter, but I realized my job was to show her how to live with strength and resilience." – Dr. Maggie Kang   We extend our sincere gratitude to our sponsor for this episode, Gebauer PainEase®.

In an insightful conversation, Katie and Maggie explore the complexities of grief, resilience, and advocacy. Maggie opens up about the difficult moments in her daughter's diagnosis, how she learned to trust her instincts, and the importance of both self-care and community in the rare disease journey. Together, they discuss the emotional weight of parenting a child with a chronic illness and the ways families can empower themselves in the healthcare system.  What You'll Take Away from This Episode:

It's one of my three-day events that I'm running, and as I always do, I have everyone gather in a circle one at a time, I have everyone say their name and say one fun fact that would not be on their bio, so we go around, and person after person is introducing themselves, and we get to the last person who says, “Hi. I'm Sandy Zabarsky, and I just got out of prison.” The whole room goes silent and you can honestly hear a pin drop. Everyone's eyes are just on her, and for a split second, you can almost feel their assumptions kicking in. Like, what does she mean? Is she really just out of prison? Did I even hear that right? Then, she continues and says, “I've been an educator for most of my career. I work in the juvenile justice system, and I recently retired, so yes, I have just gotten out of prison, so to speak, and I spent my entire career there.” In that moment, the meaning of her words completely changed. The whole room, the feeling of the room, changes because what she says, it makes her work relevant and completely has a plot twist in the middle of this exercise because what mattered to her more than anything else is that it wasn't only about working in prison, but for her, it was helping the kids get their GEDs. That was really important because she knew that a piece of paper could mean the difference between them having a completely different life story and repeating the same pattern. Sandy Zabarsky, also known as my mom, helped me in many, many, many events throughout my career, helping us really look at storytelling in a different way. She helped me realize that storytelling isn't just about entertainment or something to read as a book here or a movie there. Instead, storytelling is about how we shape reality, and that's exactly what my guest today does.

What are some hidden narratives in education that actually shape decisions and opportunities? How could storytelling be integrated into school curriculums? What benefits would it offer students? What common misconceptions exist about new technology in education? How can we change our mindset to embrace change instead of resisting it? What you will learn (about) in this episode: The power of perspective in storytelling and how a dramatic introduction can immediately shift perceptions How stories make learning more meaningful than rote memorization The value of personal narratives and how everyone, younger and older, has valuable stories to share How many people believe their stories aren't "big" enough but that storytelling is about connection and expression Finding humor and humanity in stories and how storytelling helps us process emotions and connect with others Who is Ger?

My conversation with renowned psychologist Dr. Lisa Miller takes us deep into the fascinating intersection of spirituality and neuroscience. As a pioneer in the field and professor at Columbia University, Dr. Miller shares groundbreaking research on how our brains are actually wired for spiritual connection. Through powerful personal stories, including her own journey through infertility and adoption, she reveals how depression often serves as a spiritual wake-up call rather than just a medical condition. We explore the science behind synchronicities, the power of choosing love even in difficult times, and how developing our "awakened brain" can transform our lives. Whether you're struggling with mental health, searching for deeper meaning, or simply curious about the science behind spirituality, this episode offers profound insights on connecting with something greater than ourselves.Dr. Lisa Miller's websiteDr. Lisa Miller on InstagramIn this episode you will learn:Why depression is often a developmental gateway to spiritual awakening rather than just a medical conditionHow our brains are physically wired for spiritual connection through three distinct neural networksThe scientific evidence showing that spirituality significantly reduces depression, addiction and suicide riskWhy synchronicities aren't random coincidences but guidance markers on our spiritual pathHow releasing ego control and embracing life's "yellow doors" leads to unexpected blessingsFor more information go to https://www.lewishowes.com/1708For more Greatness text PODCAST to +1 (614) 350-3960More SOG episodes we think you'll love:David Ghiyam – greatness.lnk.to/1692SCDr. James R.
