When you quit drinking, the physical detox gets a lot of attention—but what about the emotional detox? In this episode of No More Wasted Days, Heather and Sara dive into what it really means to emotionally detox after quitting alcohol. They explore why emotions feel so intense in early sobriety, how to move through them without fear, and how emotional healing is not just necessary—it's transformational. If you've ever felt overwhelmed, irritable, tearful, or deeply vulnerable after quitting drinking, this episode will help you feel seen, supported, and empowered. What You'll Learn in This Episode:
Quote: Trust is “the most effective way of relating to and working with others” and “one of the most powerful forms of motivation and inspiration.” -Stephen Covey Summary: On this episode of Act To Live, Scott and Jaime are joined by Dr. James Panico. James guides a thought-provoking discussion about trust. How is it defined? What role can it play in one's life? What happens when trust is harmed? And more! ACTion Event of the Week: Think about those people in your life who you deeply trust. Take some time to reach out to them - in any way that you'd like - and let them know how much you value them and the trust you share! Where do we walk next?

Summary: On this episode of Act To Live, Scott and Jaime discuss a question they've been pondering for a while. Is it possible to love someone unconditionally? The duo talks about what unconditional love entails and contrasts it with conditional love. Jaime and Scott also talk about ways in which we might be able to cultivate unconditional love, which not so surprisingly, starts with learning to love ourselves unconditionally. In the end, Scott and Jaime decide that perhaps the best way to encompass the true spirit of unconditional love is being able to - not so simply - say “I love you” to another person without feeling the need to add to the statement. ACTion Event of the Week: Think about those in your life who you love unconditionally. What is it about those people and relationships that allow you to offer and share this love? Then, think about yourself - do you love yourself unconditionally? It can be difficult, and yet so important, to do so. After pondering these questions for a while, think about one way in which you can practice and strengthen your ability to unconditionally love yourself and others. Where do we walk next?

Summary: On this episode of Act To Live, Scott and Jaime discuss impermanence. The duo starts small as they discuss the impermanence that exists in daily life and then dig deeper as they explore the impermanence that often accompanies things like change, loss, grief, and trauma. Jaime and Scott both share some of their own experiences and struggles with impermanence and discuss the lessons they learned along the way. ACTion Event of the Week: Think about an area of your life in which you are struggling with impermanence. Bring that impermanence to mind and then allow yourself to sit with it for a few minutes. What did you notice? What is a first-step you might take in your journey toward a greater respect and acknowledgment of impermanence? Where do we walk next?

Summary: On this episode of Act To Live, Scott and Jaime begin by talking about some of their pet peeves. The duo then explores what it is about pet peeves that seem to get some of us so worked up. This often involves thought fusion, in which we get wrapped up in our thoughts about something and allow those thoughts (and resulting emotions) to influence our actions. Jaime and Scott then discuss thought defusion and how this process can help us to create space between ourselves and our thoughts…about pet peeves and other things too. ACTion Event of the Week: Think about one of your biggest pet peeves. What is it? Allow yourself to sit with that pet peeve a bit - what is it about this pet peeve that really bothers you? Now, practice creating some space between you and this pet peeve (AND your thoughts about it too). What do you notice? Where do we walk next? Join us on the next episode of Act to Live as we talk about the dangers of comparison. References: Harris, R. (2009). ACT made simple: A quick-start guide to ACT basics and beyond.

Summary: On this episode of the Act To Live Podcast, Scott and Jaime talk about their experiences and struggles with regret.

How might we cope with regret and keep moving forward?

Summary: On this episode of the Act To Live Podcast, Scott and Jaime explore the word ‘YET.' Adding this powerful word to our vocabulary (both when talking to others and ourselves) encourages learning, helps us to maintain engagement - especially in difficult tasks, and increases our confidence when working/interacting with challenging people.

Action Event of the Week: Think about something that you've always wanted to do and have not started ‘YET.' What is the first little step you can take on your journey of action?

Summary: On this episode of the Act To Live Podcast, Scott and Jaime explore the idea of needing to ‘fix' oneself. They discuss how ‘fixing' is something that is done with cars, not people, and yet we've all had moments in which we could ‘just fix' something about ourselves or our situation. The duo then talks about the idea of learning to instead help ourselves as we travel on our journey to becoming the best version of us possible. Action Event of the Week: Think about an aspect of your life in which you need a little help.

Relationship Challenge of the Week: Think of a challenge you and your partner face. Just one to start with. Consciously choose to approach it as something to overcome together. If you are currently blissfully without challenges, set a moderately difficult goal. Before every discussion, before making any plans, before getting to work, physically turn toward each other and talk about your shared values and goals that relate to this challenge. Put yourselves on the same team. If you find yourselves disagreeing or working at cross-purposes, stop and set the actual problem aside for a minute and talk about what you do agree on and the fact that you are in this together.

Summary: In this episode of the ACT to Live podcast, Scott shares some important words of wisdom he received from one of his mentors when he was younger. Jaime and Scott talk about the importance and difficulty of self-care and being kind to oneself. Jaime introduces the concept of filling our buckets as a framework for thinking about self-care. Scott and Jaime then talk about their experiences with this concept - what fills their buckets; what empties their buckets; and, how they know when their buckets are getting low. Jaime wraps up the episode with an idea for helping others to fill their buckets. ACTion Question of the Week: Think about the concept of ‘filling your bucket.’ What are some things that might fill your bucket? This week, pick one of the bucket-fillers you identified and give it a try. On our next episode of ACT to Live, we delve into the concept of self-compassion.
Summary: In this episode of the ACT to Live podcast, Jaime shares a poem titled “If I Had My Life to Live Over Again” by Nadine Stair. Scott and Jaime discuss the topic of mistakes and what might happen if we allow ourselves to make mistakes; and, perhaps, if we were to see mistakes as opportunities to learn instead of as moments of failure. Jaime and Scott begin to explore the BIG question - “Who are YOU?” - and dive into the topic of values. Many of us have never taken the time to really ponder this question; and so, it might be helpful to begin by thinking about what we would want our closest family members and friends to say about us. ACTion Question of the Week: Think about the closest person to you (emotionally). What would you want that person to say about you at your 100th birthday party? On our next episode of ActToLive, join us in a conversation about the power of observation.

Show Notes for Episode #20 Main Topic: On this episode we discuss Why women make extraordinary executives and the steps other women have taken to become CEOs. This topic is not solely for those women who are striving to become an actual CEO. The advice that will lead you to an eventual CEO position will technically lead you where ever you want to go within an organization. Also, keep in mind that many women who eventually became CEOs never planned on becoming CEOs. The thing is, as you grow and learn and become - opportunities open up that you never expected. You learn things that make you realize that if YOU don’t take that step to make the organization better, maybe no one will. You realize that what you believe in matters and that if you don’t move up to the next level, and then the next, the person who does may not have the same vision as you do and your ideas will wither on the vine. Even if you are starting in your very first professional position now, this discussion is for you. Time Machine: In this segment each week we will give a few points about women that have accomplished a lot! We also will discuss a bit about what was happening to women during the time periods.
