Emily Reagan is a mom of four, Air Force wife, digital marketing consultant and founder of vacrashcourse.com. As a scrappy military wife who moves every two years, Emily has worked in various jobs related to public relations, marketing, sports media relations, journalism and video production. Finally her random skill set paid off as a freelancer digital media “VA” (virtual assistant). Now she helps creative entrepreneurs take their talents online, grow their social media presence and build their sales funnels. She quickly booked out and didn't like turning down clients, so she trained her smart military spouse and mom friends to learn digital media tech skills and take on clients as their own. She calls her Digital Media VA Crash Course graduates “unicorn VAs” because they have all the resourceful qualities, online insight and implementation skills that online business owners are looking to hire first... aka that total magical package. Here's what we covered on the episode: Emily's Background () How emily and I met over a year ago, before the pandemic at dinner through Sage Polaris at the TCC IRL event  The story of how Emily had her dream job, found out she was pregnant, moved again, became a stay at home mom, had a couple more kids, and moved a couple more times A friend of Emily's saw that a blogger needed help with a media kit and asked Emily if she would be interested; Emily said yes and explains that she googled what a media kit was because at that time social media was changing so much and she had been out of the workforce for a 4-5 years   Emily explains how doing this blogger's media kit opened one door after another and introduced her to Google Analytics  What's a Unicorn VA?  Why Emily doesn't like the term VA because to her, she was never just a virtual assistant, she had so many responsibilities and did so many tasks that had a direct impact on her clients and their business  What Emily teaches virtual assistants in her course is, get in, get your feet wet, learn the skills, figure out very quickly what you like, what you're good at, what you don't like and immediately start promoting yourself Promote yourself as a VA by taking on projects because so many businesses will hire in-house or hire overseas   When Emily talks about unicorn VAs, she's talking about that first person you hire when you need help with everything, someone who can help with the administrative tasks, but can also help with the tasks that bog you down weekly When deciding what you should or shouldn't take on as a VA, Emily says know what your zone of genius is and start handing off the things you aren't good at Emily shares that when you have a skill that's marketable, you just need to learn the online way of doing that business and shares a real example of someone in her course  When Emily first started, she kept her head down, said yes to the projects, had no vision but ended up booking out so quickly that she realized she needed to teach her other mom friends what she was doing because there was such a high demand for implementers  How training 8 women to take on and subcontract client work validated for Emily that she could teach people and realized she needed to scale it  How Emily's Business has Changed  The story of how Emily helped a client with a million dollar launch, where she stayed up until 1am rebuilding the client's tech library and realized she didn't want to be doing that anymore  Emily started to scale her course and put herself out there  How quiz funnels were a great way for Emily to keep her hand in the pot, but get out of hourly rates  When Emily pitched her first press kit, she charged $300 and shares she had some experience but didn't really know how to design, so ended up hiring it out  Emily started doing Pinterest for $10/hr and says she loved it because it was stress free  Now, Emily charges $100/hr and her day rates are $1,000 a day  Don't Wait Until It's Too Late If you are in need of a VA, you can go to hire a unicorn.com and fill out a form that they'll post in their student Facebook group Emily's advice is to not wait until it's too late to hire someone to help you; she also says don't get stuck on 1 tech skill you need because someone will be able to learn it  Even if a job listing has job requirements you don't meet, like needing 5 year of experience, Emily says put your name in the hat anyways  Why Emily tells all her students who are new to talk to their friends because they probably know a business owner who you can get work from  Emily tells us about the 4 women on her team and explains each of their roles, and shares that she does her own social media  Connect with Emily on Instagram or listen to her Podcast, Unicorns Unite or fill out a form at hire a unicorn.com if you are in need of a VA    Links mentioned:   Emily's VA Crash Course   Hire a Unicorn    Connect with Emily on Instagram    Listen to Emily's Podcast - Unicorns Unite    Like what you heard?  Click here to subscribe + leave a review on iTunes.

Guest Profile: Emily Thomas; founder of Sundari Swim brand, entrepreneur, educator, and a business coach. Today’s Episode Summary: Have you ever realized the power of incorporating new habits in your life? Incorporating small but consistent habits –like, rising early, reading books, listening to a productive conversation, etc- may look like they are not creating any impact on your life instantaneously but they have a huge compound effect on your life. The truth is, these atomic habits have the power to change the course of your life and can lead you toward your goal; success. To unlock your true potential you first need to understand yourself and ask yourself some hard questions – like, what you are good at, what it is that you want in your life, how you can be a better person, etc - and then you need to incorporate new habits that are in alignment with your goal. The biggest hurdle - that anyone faces while inculcating new habits - is the whirlwind of "busy life”. For most people their new habits get lost in the whirlwind of day-to-day life but if you want to reach your goal you really need to prioritize what you need in life over the whirlwind. Now comes the question, how can you develop long lasting habits? For that, you need to understand that consistency is the key. A consistent new habit breaks old patterns and changes neural pathways in your brain that shifts you dramatically. My guest Emily is suggesting that you should maintain a diary to write your goals, ambitions, and your habits to be consistent in your habits. Emily Thomas herself helps entrepreneurs and other people to know their true selves and helps them to remove blockages in their lives that are holding them back to achieve their goals. She is an educator and works on the mindsets to unpack the true power of the people. Emily combined her ability to educate people with her swimwear business and now she is creating an impact on the lives of many people especially women. What You Will Learn from this Episode: In today’s episode, you will learn how significantly new habits can change your life, how you can develop any new habit, how to break the illusion of “being busy” to create a new habit, and why developing new habits is super important for entrepreneurs. My guest Emily is also talking about the impact of deliberately incorporating new habits in her own life and how she is helping other people to unfold their true selves and achieve success. Moreover, you will learn what is the role of intentions to achieve any goal, how to get out of any negative feeling and focus on goals, what is the role of visualization and affirmations in your success, what are some necessary questions that you must ask yourself to elevate yourself, and last but not the least how to get rid of two shackles: 1. Haunting memories of the past 2. Fear of the future. The Episode Timeline: [00:00]– Introduction of podcast and today’s guest. [01:52]- “WHY” of Emily’s life. [05:03]- Energetics of the intention. [07:07]- Breaking the illusion of “being busy” and creating a new habit. [10:11]- How to develop any new habit. [14:57]- Developing new habits are super important especially for entrepreneurs.

[32:42]- What Emily does and how she helps entrepreneurs to unfold their true self. [35:20]- Why Emily decided to be in the swimwear business.  Golden Nuggets from Episode: “A common thread among all successful entrepreneurs is that they worked on their minds, they worked on their thoughts, and they had the habits - they wake up really early, they priorities their day, they don’t say they are too busy in-fact they make time for what’s important, and most of the time they don’t work as hard as a lot of people think that they work because they have done such an incredible job of outsourcing and hiring.” -Emily Thomas “Intention is the very first thing that you should look at when you are deciding to start a business or build a brand or whatever it is that you want to do. If your intention will be on the right side, the results will follow.” –Corey Berrier “Manifestation does not mean you will get everything that you visualize. It may not come in the same form or shape as you visualized it, however, you got to have enough awareness to realize that when things do come your way that’s a by-product of your visualization or manifestation.” –Corey Berrier “The moment that you stop projecting your opinions on people is the moment that you start feeling better.” -Emily Thomas “No matter what you want, you always have the opportunity to get that.” -Emily Thomas “If you put out crappy energy, that’s what you are going to get.” –Corey Berrier "Everything is a lesson. The universe provides us many experiences to teach us and help us elevate and if we are paying attention we elevate faster, if not we don't." -Emily Thomas “Being busy is not necessarily productive.” –Corey Berrier “We all are trying to survive; we all are trying to understand what this game of life is all about.” -Emily Thomas   Emily’s Website & Social Media Handles: Emily’s Brand Website: https://sundariswim.com/ Emily’s Website: http://www.emilykthomas.com/ Instagram:  @itsemilythomas https://www.instagram.com/sundari_swim/   My Website & Social Media Handles: Website: https://salesceo.co/ Facebook:  @Corey Berrier https://www.facebook.com/corey.berrier Instagram:  @coreyberrier https://www.instagram.com/coreyberrier/ @successfullifepodcast https://www.instagram.com/successfullifepodcast/ Twitter: @ successfullifepodcast https://twitter.com/success40324744 Linkedin:  Corey Berrier- Successful Life Podcast https://www.linkedin.com/in/coreysalescoach/ YouTube: Successful Life Podcast https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCrPl4lUyKV7hZxoTksQDsyg/featured

Please Leave a Review! The latest A Tale of Two Hygienists delves into the particulars of X-ray imagining and how hygienists can keep on top of this irradiating subject through continuing education. To this end, Michelle has invited back a guest who has appeared on the show enough times that she might as well be considered an honorary co-host.   Emily Boge, RDH, is the dental administrative chair at Hawkeye Community College in Waterloo, Iowa, and serves as the program chairs for dental assisting and dental hygiene. In addition, she is a product innovator for American Eagle Instruments and a speaker/consultant under her own Think Big Dental brand.    In this episode, Emily discusses one of the more difficult radiology imaging concepts for hygiene students to grasp, emphasizes how hygienists are accountable for what’s on the X-ray image, and defines the oddly-named S.L.O.B. rule.     EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS:   Interview starts: 3:54   - What you can expect out of Emily’s “Five Hour Power Pack” for radiology CE.   - Why Emily can’t imagine learning without a phosphor plate.   - Taking a closer look at some key terminology using a popsicle stick analogy.   - When should you bisect the angle?   - The “safe zone” for a handheld X-ray and how Emily’s height complicated using that device.   - What is the S.L.O.B. rule?     QUOTES:   “The key to... understanding anything in X-ray is to understand parallel vs. perpendicular.”   “It’s very important when you first start taking X-rays that you learn correctly.”   “You don’t have to have a fancy, fancy camera to be able to get high quality intraoral images.”   “It takes one patient to pay for that one intraoral camera.” LINKS: Emily’s email - emily@thinkbigdental.com OR emily.boge@hawkeyecollege.edu      THIS EPISODE COUNTS FOR CE! - but read the disclaimer below as it might not count for your state.

Today, Ellen Gardner and Philip De Souza, Communications and Marketing at HIROC, speak with Emily Gruenwoldt Carkner, President and CEO of Children’s Healthcare Canada.   Like many professional women, the usual pressures of leading two national associations, two young children at home, and staying healthy have been compounded for Emily Gruenwoldt during Covid-19. Fortunately Emily and her husband were able to turn to a big community of support, but she’s not lost sight of the effect of those pressures on her team and so makes a point of doing individual check-ins.   The entire landscape around children’s healthcare has shifted, creating accessibility and equity issues for many, but Emily also sees the silver linings – notably, the rise in virtual care and the prospect of many more people being able to attend CHC’s (now) virtual conference in November. This event and the many other ways they’re finding to meaningfully interact with members Emily says have been game-changers for the organization.   Key Takeaways: 1:08 Why Emily chose to work in children’s health 3:16 How Children’s Healthcare Canada has continued to provide virtual offerings to members 4:20 The transition of the annual meeting and the opportunities that presents 7:12 Great enthusiasm from CHC members around the rapid implementation of virtual care 8:19 The pandemic has given us permission to innovate 9:35 Why moving the dial on children’s health is going to take effort from health and other sectors 10:17 Why the UNICEF Canada 14 report card is a call to action 11:05 The collaboration of several organizations to create a new framework for the health and well-being status of children in Canada 13:26 A role for everyone to participate in the project, We Can for Kids 16:05 A unique opportunity to address mental health issue early and change the course for youth 17:03 How Emily tunes into issues in hospitals and healthcare organizations around the country 18:53 Coping with the biggest challenge of her professional career 19:27 How the CHC team used best practices to stay in touch during Covid 21:34 A memorable moment during the pandemic 22:44 The crisis has given the team a new sense of purpose 25:08 What has changed in Emily’s leadership style 26:49 The value of Emerging Health Leaders in giving leaders a safe space to ask questions and build relationships with peers and senior leaders 27:48 The value of having a “kitchen cabinet”   Mentioned in this Episode:   Children’s Healthcare Canada Children’s Healthcare Canada Conference ‘20 Emerging Health Leaders UNICEF Canada Report Card 14: Child Well Being in a Sustainable World WeCANforKids The Social CEO: How Social Media can make you a stronger leader   Access More Interviews with Healthcare Leaders at HIROC.com/podcast Follow us on Twitter, and listen on iTunes.

In many ways, our life experiences around reproduction impact us and our mental health significantly. Today’s show focuses on the story of adult sexual trauma and how our guest was affected as she became a mother. **The nature of this topic of sexual trauma and differing birth experiences prompt a sensitivity warning for some listeners. Use your judgment in listening now or at a later time. Emily Finomore is a mother and clinician who couldn’t find information on what to expect with a pregnancy and childbirth experience after adult sexual trauma. Emily wants people to know that each person’s birth experience can be different and yet bring healing. Emily is a child and adolescent therapist as well as outpatient clinic manager for WVU Medicine in Behavioral Medicine. Her previous work includes more than ten years working in various capacities in child welfare systems, clinical work in family treatment drug court, implementing a large scale research project at the Air Force Academy, and working in private practice. Her area of clinical focus is complex developmental trauma. In an effort to support communities in West Virginia as they work to meet the challenging needs of these children, Emily has trained frontline staff, educators, behavioral health professionals, and families on understanding the neurodevelopmental effects of complex trauma and appropriate interventions to support regulation and healing. Emily is the parent of five children, through both biology and adoption. She shares her story in an effort and with the hope that you know that you’re not alone in your experience. Show Highlights: Emily’s story of sexual assault as a college student and becoming a mom for the first time a few years later Emily’s various birth experiences with her four biological children and one adopted child How parenting taught Emily how little control she has over life events Why Emily thought that a natural birth experience with her first child would bring healing How her second pregnancy came quickly after her first child and led to a planned induction How the epidural allowed her to stay present, focused, and joyful How Emily’s third child was adopted from foster care: “the longest and hardest labor of all” How the journey to adopt her daughter brought up trauma triggers for Emily A move to Colorado allowed Emily to consider more natural birth options for her fourth child, using a certified nurse-midwife in the hospital How having birth photography for the first time played an important role in Emily’s trauma response How a surprise pregnancy brought a fifth child and the opportunity to use a birth center and have all her children present with her How important relationship and connection were in the childbirth space The great need for resources in helping people find trauma-informed care providers Emily’s suggestions for other trauma survivors regarding communicating with your spouse and engaging with your clinician Hopeful messages from Emily: “There are many ways to find healing, one of which is becoming a parent. Birth is the start of your parenthood journey, and I’m continuing to heal and grow. Sharing my experiences with others helps my healing, and I’m grateful for all the pieces.” Resources mentioned: Email Emily: emilyfinomore@gmail.com

A note from Talking Taiwan host Felicia Lin: I invited Emily Chen on to Talking Taiwan as a guest to talk about how she manages to homeschool during the coronavirus when having her kids home full-time during this pandemic. The idea for this episode came from a Google doc that was created and shared by Emily on Facebook. The link to it is listed below in the related links section of this post. You’ll see that it has over 100 weblinks to resources for parents and kids to try out during the Coronavirus pandemic. What a treasure trove of information it is! **SPOILER ALERT** Be sure to listen to the end of my interview with Emily for a special offering that she has for parents and kids to get through the quarantine of the COVID-19 pandemic. With so many parents and families struggling with managing their kids at home due to the COVID-19 outbreak, I realized that many people could benefit from this amazing list of resources that Emily has compiled. I also knew that because Emily has been homeschooling her kids, she could definitely provide some perspective with parents suddenly faced with this unfamiliar situation.   Our conversation touched upon what homeschooling is and the different approaches that people take to homeschooling. Imagine a teaching approach completely centered on a particular child’s interests and a more holistic approach to teaching. In essence every moment of teaching could be turned into a well-rounded lesson by looking at a particular subject matter from different angles by discussing the math, geography, history, or writing etc. involved.   It is a creative approach to teaching what a child is already interested and it makes what the child has learned seem much more meaningful and tangible. This conversation gave me a fuller understanding of how homeschooling works and how Emily is applying it to her kids.  In full disclosure, Emily is not only my Facebook friend, but also my cousin. Strange that we never got into such an in-depth conversation about this before.   Emily also shared her thoughts on how to manage working at home while having kids at home and how to parents your kids when you are at home full-time with your kids.   Here’s a little preview of what we talked about in this podcast episode: How long Emily has been homeschooling her kids Why Emily decided to homeschool her kids What is homeschooling, and what approaches to people take to homeschooling their kids What is unschooling and different unschooling approaches Homeschooling vs. public schooling How she and her kids are dealing with social distancing and how that has impacted their homeschooling The challenges for parents having to be home full-time with their kids due to lockdown recommendations What’s on the Google doc list of resources that Emily put together for parents with kids at home How parents can deal with having kids of different ages and personalities at home at the same time How to manage working at home with having kids at home Talking to your kids about the Coronavirus How to parent your kids when you are at home full-time with your kids   Related Links: The Google doc that Emily has compiled with resources for homeschoolers and parents looking for things to do with their kids at home: https://bit.ly/2VuOOOR Emily’s Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/mchendraws/ Other resources for parents dealing with talking to kids about COVID-19: Coronavirus: Keeping Our Children And Ourselves Safe, With Pamela Cantor, M.D. (180 Podcast): https://www.turnaroundusa.org/the-180-podcast-coronavirus/ Turnaround For Children, an organization created by Dr. Pamela Cantor in the wake of 9/11, after co-authoring a study on the impact of the 9/11 attacks on NYC schoolchildren: https://www.turnaroundusa.org/ The Daily podcast episode, in which Carl Zimmer, science reporter and author of the “Matter” column for The New York Times answers kids questions about COVID-19: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/a-kids-guide-to-coronavirus/id1200361736?i=1000469699785 TED Talk 10 Tips for Cultivating Creativity in Your Kids: http://ideas.ted.com/10-tips-for-cultivating-creativity-in-your-kids/

The focus of our chat is on sex, but it’s also about relationships and stress and how our brains work. Our guest Emily Nagoski, Ph.D. shares her brilliant wisdom with us in this episode. Given the current state of the world, we are living in times of unprecedented stress, which absolutely affects how we relate to each other. I’m excited for you to hear this episode and learn more about your brain, sex and stress, especially postpartum. (FYI, sex related body parts, sex related words are used in our chat).  Emily Nagoski is a sex educator and the author of Come As You Are: The Surprising New Science That Will Transform Your Sex LIfe and Burnout: The Secret to Unlocking the Stress Cycle. Her job is to travel all over the world, training therapists, medical professionals, college students, and the general public about the science of women’s sexual wellbeing. Show Highlights: The dual control model of how your brain perceives and processes sex Why you might feel judgment about your sexual response, which “hits the brakes”--not the accelerator Why the magical six-week timeline doesn’t work for most women How your brain responds to the physical changes that come with giving birth The best perspective on the six-week timeline Steps to take in the chaos: Identify what is causing you to hit the brakes Have non-sexual sharing and touching Why Emily doesn’t use the term “libido” Why sexual desire differential is the #1 reason people seek sex therapy The secrets of sexuality in long-term relationships Why desire does NOT come first Why you need to identify the sex you want---and don’t want Why “pleasure is the measure” of your sexual wellbeing Why Emily reads her own audiobook versions Creating the ultimate sex-positive context through kindness and compassion The difference in confidence and joy Resources: Emily Nagoski Come As You Are: The Surprising New Science That Will Transform Your Sex Life by Emily Nagoski  Burnout: The Secret to Unlocking the Stress Cycle by Emily Nagoski  

Sex is a major part of life, whether we want to talk about it or not. It is also an important part of our mental health—good thinking means good sex, and vice versa. In fact, great sex is great for our brain health; it boosts our longevity, happiness, intelligence, or ability to form deep and meaningful connection, and our mental resilience, while, orgasms, whether they occur in a relationship or not, have many health benefits, include stress relief and better skin!   In this podcast I discuss why sex is such an important part of our mental and physical health, how to spice up your sex life and improve your relationship, how to recover from sexual trauma and how to become comfortable with your own sexuality with sex therapist Emily Morse, author, Doctor of Human Sexuality and host of the SiriusXM Radio show and podcast of the same name, Sex With Emily. Emily has made it her life’s work to help people have great sex. As she says, life is too short for bad sex, as it is such an important part of our daily life and our overall mental and physical wellbeing. Indeed, many people spend a large part of their day thinking about sex! This is why it is so important that people of all ages learn how to love themselves and get comfortable with their own sexual needs and desires, to not only improve their own sexual wellbeing but also their relationships.

For podcast sponsorship inquiries, questions regarding the episode, or topic suggestions please email dominique@drleaf.com   In this podcast, we discuss the topic of pornography. Any sex act that supports human trafficking or the exploitation of men or women is wrong, and no one should seek to gain pleasure from watching those acts, even if they are doing so as a couple. Men and woman who want to use erotic, fictional sex scenes to arouse their desire for each other should use resources that do not exploit humans, such as reading an erotic romance novel aloud together or watching a TV show with romantic sex scenes like Outlander. As we mentioned in the podcast, watching sex acts can be harmful to any relationship when it becomes become addictive.

"Try to see your own worth creatively." I got to sit down and record an episode with a friend of over a decade this past week. Emily and I met when we were babies in our twenties in Texas. Both our lives look drastically different than when we became friends. But we've been learning so many of the same lessons about worth. Emily is an incredible jazz singer, teacher, podcast host, and all around creative. She's been through really intense challenges to her worth - through her family and profession - and you can tell her wisdom and courage comes from those experiences. We dive into many topics in this conversation including how to view your worth as a creative, go out of your comfort zone, handle really difficult family dynamics, and embrace our inner love of magic as adults. It's a great conversation, in my humble opinion. Also, something wonky was happening with the mics during this recording, so please forgive the little scratchy sound that randomly shows up here and there. C'est la vie. Show notes Why Emily considers her recent work her first "authentic" work (3:15) Why "not being good enough" syndrome is so crippling for creativity (5:45) How to face uncomfortable truths about how you were raised (8:23) Why letting go of responsibility for not measuring up to someone's expectations can be so scary (10:40) What helps start the process of healing from worth wounds (13:31) Why getting out of your comfort zone supports your worth (16:58) Why it's so important to let yourself be imaginative and creative (18:40) How to manage critical self-talk (20:30) How to navigate parental disapproval (29:30) What it feels like to own your worth while redefining yourself (33:20) What being honest about our pain and challenges teaches us about our worth (36:25) How to set healthy boundaries around your worth and circumstances (37:30) Links we mention Artifice podcast Follow Emily Instagram Facebook Website

Have you ever considered quitting your job to start a business? Emily was working as a journalist, but an 'aha' moment made her realise that she wanted to do more meaningful work, and so she set up a flower company that caters to weddings and private events. She now has 5 employees and her business is growing steadily. You'll love that story. We also chat about... Why Emily left her job as a journalist Why she went into the flower business The process of starting a business Her financial situation when transitioning away from her job Her current business metrics Enjoy this chat with Emily, and please subscribe to us in iTunes if you enjoyed it! Show notes and links from today's episode Carolina Flowers Emily on Instagram Book: How to Find Fulfilling Work Lynda Library Key takeaways from our chat with Emily 1 - The moment Emily realised she was in the wrong economy Emily was working as a journalist - she was good at writing, reading and networking - but she didn't enjoy sitting at a desk or earning a low salary. She started learning about behavioural economics and as she took mental notes, she understood that this was a market she wanted to be part of. She decided to go into the flower business since she saw that it was a product that worked well, and that could get her away from sexism in the workplace as well as add value to the community. 2 - How Emily kickstarted her flower business Emily's flower business is her way to be part of her community and solve a problem using farm land. She didn't have many resources when she started, so she started a farm on a small land while she was still working as a journalist. Most people did not take her seriously, but she kept working on her business and had enough money to recirculate through the company. She now has 5 employees and sells hundreds of thousands of flowers every year. 3 - How she manages her money and her future goals The positive aspect of working as a journalist is that Emily was used to not making much money. She told herself that she could always wait tables if her business didn't work out. She had $10,000 saved up and inherited another $10,000. With that, she was able to kickstart her business and take it each day at a time. She was responsible with her money, and knew that quitting her job would not mean losing all her savings immediately.

"At this level, everyone works really hard. You can’t just say, 'Oh, she just works the hardest.' All the elite athletes on that starting line, everyone has their own challenges in their build up and had to overcome those. Everyone has their own story." Emily Sisson just might be having the best year of her life. The professional runner for New Balance kicked off her year by running a 1:07 at the Houston Half Marathon — coming just five seconds short of the American record. In April, Emily made her marathon debut at the London Marathon, where she ran a 2:23, finishing in sixth place and becoming the seventh-fastest U.S. woman ever at the marathon distance. It was also the second-fastest marathon debut by an American woman. This summer, Emily competed in the 10,000 meters at USA Track & Field Nationals, and landed a spot on the U.S. world team. She'll head to Doha later this month to represent the United States. On this episode, Emily reflects on her breakout year and talks about what's next, including where her head is at leading up to the 2020 Olympic Marathon Trials in February. She talks about what training at altitude is really like and what her training looks like right now, and she shares the game-changing marathon advice she got from Meb Keflezighi, Des Linden, and training partner Molly Huddle.

Embracing intensity means figuring out who you are and who you want to be, whether other people like it or not. Part of the equation is figuring out why trying to fit a square peg into a round hole just isn’t going to work out well. Such is the story of my guest today who uses her personal experiences with giftedness to bring resources and counseling services to others. Emily Kircher-Morris is a Licensed Professional Counselor in private practice near St. Louis, and her practice specializes in meeting the needs of gifted and twice-exceptional (2e) learners. Before working in private practice, Emily worked as a school counselor and teacher of gifted programming. She frequently speaks to groups of educators and counselors about meeting the needs of high ability learners, and she hosts The Mind Matters podcast, which explores issues related to the development of gifted and 2e individuals throughout the life span. I first encountered Emily through her podcast, as I was a recent guest there, so this is the perfect time to return the favor and have her on the show. Enjoy! Show Highlights: Why Emily is passionate about her career focused on gifted and 2e kids, as a mental health counselor, a podcaster, and someone who helps those who are unnoticed and unrecognized The need for resources for gifted and 2e kids--and their parents Emily’s personal brand of intensity and her fiercely independent “just let me do what I want to do” attitude As an elementary student, Emily had an ADHD diagnosis and was impulsive, intense, and “too much and out of proportion” How her mom was consistently in her corner through all her childhood years How the stigma about behavioral expectations and gender roles affected Emily How Emily has to tone down her intensity constantly but has gone through growing pains of being too intense The life-changing experiences that have brought her reflection and greater awareness: motherhood and obtaining her master’s degree in counseling and therapy How Emily feels her intensity is out of control when she feels “on the edge” and “about to tip over” How intensity has affected Emily in many relationships How Emily uses her experience every day with gifted and 2e clients, helping them understand and accept their intensity for themselves Why Emily started a podcast and a non-profit to help with parent support for those with gifted and 2e kids How Emily has to harness her power in personal and professional relationships with others Why Emily had to find and use an organizational system The best advice she’s ever received came from a counselor: “Don’t pretend that your needs don’t exist or try to extinguish them. Recognize and accept them.” Why the book, A Wrinkle in Time, has meaning and long-term influence in Emily’s life How Emily uses Carl Rogers’ “unconditional positive regard” to help her clients Why we have to teach our kids to find their sense of belonging Resources: The Mind Matters Podcast   Find Episode 37 to hear “You Never Outgrow Giftedness” Find Emily and Mind Matters on Twitter:  @mindmatterspod  and @emilykm_lpc Visit Embracing Intensity to join the daily challenge to bring more play into your life

Emily Arnold earned a Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering from The Milwaukee School of Engineering (MSOE) and a Master’s in Civil Engineering from Stanford University. She is now Director of Optimization Engineering at 8 Minute Energy Renewables [1:10] Why Emily made the transition from Electrical into Civil Engineering. She originally was planning to be a chemical engineer. A 2 week long summer engineering camp helped guide her decisions. At Stanford she focused on atmosphere and energy engineering. [5:23] Looking at the subset programs of the broader masters degrees is important when looking at graduate school. [6:47] How Emily is merging the Electrical Engineering and Civil Engineering together. [9:00] Emily’s specific area of expertise – solar technology and optimization. [9:52] What has Emily fired up is that renewable are just getting started. [11:35] Early in her career she had to learn how to accommodate the customer’s requirements and there is no one right answer to solving an engineering problem. Some may be better technically, some may be better cost wise. You have to think about all the parts and there are always trade-offs [15:20] Launching into college successfully – talk to people, your teachers. Her high school math teacher really helped guide her for college guidance. [18:02] Best advice – Be bold and realize that you have something to contribute. A personal habit is to find outlets to shut-off and balance throughout school and in her career.

Is the struggle for perfection squelching your creative energy? Before you are tempted to say NO, you need to listen to today’s show. We are hearing a personal story of a spiritual awakening, freedom from perfection, and the power of creative energy as a vehicle in cultivating self-worth. Emily Pereira was once entrenched in the corporate world, searching for happiness and fulfillment everywhere except for where it really exists. Emily had a breakdown that became an astonishing breakthrough. After discovering a treasure trove of passion and magic living inside her to which she was previously blind, she’s now helping other women attract soul-affirming love into their lives by showing them how to gain access to their magnetic, radiant selves via one-on-one coaching and transformational Costa Rica retreats. Her ebook, Unstoppable Woman, is available on Amazon, and her 300-page memoir, The Quest, is in the wings. A mom-preneur living her dream life in Costa Rica, Emily is giving other women a map for how to manifest the life that aligns with their heart. She’s here today to tell her amazing story. Living the dream Isn’t that what most people want---the dream? For Emily, her original dream was to be a teacher, but she found herself in pharmaceutical sales, a job she describes as having “golden handcuffs.” She lived a comfortable lifestyle even though she didn’t have passion for the job, but the benefits were top-notch. Fast forward five years when a life crisis caused her world to come crashing down in her late 20’s. Nothing was bringing her happiness, even though she had all the “stuff.”  TWEET: It can look like you “have it all” to everyone else and still be completely unhappy with your life. It’s not the stuff that makes you happy - it’s following your dreams. @bethebeginner The biggest illusion What is the biggest illusion in your life? When Emily connected to a spiritual teacher, he told her she had bought into illusions about herself and the way the world works, with the biggest one being that she had to be perfect in order to have approval, acceptance, and love. He said she was creative, but was freezing herself out of her natural creative passion with her attempt to be perfect. The result was that she was walking around in a constant state of judgment on herself. She says the key to finding freedom is giving yourself permission to be “the beginner” and taking on full radical personal responsibility. TWEET: “Give yourself the freedom to be imperfect and to be the beginner.” @bethebeginner “You’re a writer” Has someone ever told you something about yourself that took you by surprise? When Emily’s spiritual teacher said, “You’re a writer,” it took her awhile to believe and know where to start. He challenged her to set an intention, be the beginner, and write her story. She found with amazement that when she suspended judgment, the words flowed freely. Sentences turned into paragraphs, then pages, then chapters---and she was transformed in the process. She began to play guitar, sing, write songs, paint paintings, do improv, and dance burlesque in an explosion of creative passion. The floodgates were opened and created a cascade of spiritual changes.  TWEET: “Suspend judgement of yourself and finally be able to be in flow.” @bethebeginner Guest Recommendation: ONE action for a dream chaser to take--”Be patient with yourself and find people who are a little ahead of you on the path who can help you. Permission leads to passion, and passion delivers you to your purpose.” OUTLINE OF THIS EPISODE: [:06] How she ended up in Costa Rica [3:40] What young Emily wanted to do with her life [8:05] The spiritual teacher who changed everything [9:10] Buying into the illusion [13:03] Full radical personal responsibility [14:46] Finding the silver lining [17:25] “Write your story and heal your heart” [21:55] Belief in yourself [22:35] Feeling compassion for women bound by chains of perfection [23:56] The pull of Costa Rica [29:00] Emily’s two books [29:35] Why Emily wouldn’t change anything in her journey [31:30] ONE action for a dream chaser RESOURCES MENTIONED IN THE EPISODE: Emily’s Website - Find out about Emily’s work, retreats, coaching, books, blog, and more! Emily on Facebook  Emily on Twitter Emily on Instagram  TWEETS YOU CAN USE: TWEET: The question that haunted me was, “When are you going to do something that really matters?”I was so disconnected that I didn’t even know what was really important. @bethebeginner TWEET: Creativity isn’t a genetic thing; it’s an energy that’s a natural part of being human. @bethebeginner TWEET: I had a very narrow vision of myself and of my life back then. I couldn’t see the forest for the trees. @bethebeginner TWEET: Ask yourself where the gift is each and every time you’re tempted to judge yourself. @bethebeginner  

In terms of making my ultimate wedding dream a reality, today’s guest takes the cake. And bakes it. Since that ultimate wedding dream I just spoke of was to be able to eat my own damn wedding cake at my own wedding. Without a stupid belly ache. So since Emily Lael Aumiller, the founder of Lael Cakes and an allergen-free pastry chef extraordinaire makes the world’s best vegan and gluten-free cakes, she’s essentially my wedding fairy godmother! I’m excited to share with you how Emily went from pastry sculpting to cake sculpting, and how through a fateful intervention of a lot of allergies, Emily decided to sculpt cakes those of us who have sensitives systems and/or just prefer not putting crap into our bodies can enjoy with glee! Emily’s company, Lael Cakes, is a Brooklyn based boutique cake studio that uses her own unique blend of non-gluten flours (don’t worry, I tell you what’s in the blend) to make the perfect pastry flour. It’s incredible how Emily substitutes real food ingredients for refined sugar, saturated fat, and dairy and uses dyes extracted from the natural pigments of fruits and vegetables to give her treats incredible scrumptious vibrant colors.   Press play to drool and hear: How the slow food movement (and food allergies) inspired her to create allergen-free pastries The gluten-free flour mix Emily invented and swears by What happens when you take away all the overly processed ingredients The kind of sugar most traditional bakeries use How to have self-discipline when you're around cake all day Why Emily creates vegan AND non-vegan cakes (and feels good about it) A behind-the-scenes peek at how I picked my wedding cake How she designs unique cakes for each and every client The style of cake that lets Emily's creativity shine through How to paint your cake with plants Emily's take on the dessert table trend Tips for overcoming the gluten-free vegan baking struggle And much more!   Links related to this episode: The full show notes with all the deets from this episode!

I had the chance to sit down with Emily Cassel of the Sexy Soulful Success Podcast. Emily and I spent our time talking about sisterhood and how holding space for other women through things like sisterhood circles is a sacred act. The episode begins with a discussion around masculine versus feminine energy, turns towards old paradigms for success and why they don’t work for women, moves into the power of relationships and how they challenge us to grow and evolve, and ends with all of the reasons why sisterhood and sisterhood circles are a tool for the empowerment of women and the world as a whole. To say that I learned a lot from our conversation would be an understatement. And I hope you feel the same after listening to it yourself. I’d love to hear from you! What stood out most from Emily’s interview? What does sisterhood look and feel like to you? Have you ever been a part of a sisterhood circle yourself? And if not, is that something that you would be interested in exploring more after hearing from Emily? Topics Discussed: An introduction to Emily Cassel and what she does Masculine and feminine energy versus gender Pushing for the sake of achievement versus fulfillment Old paradigms of success and how they hold women back The shadow side of our ambition and how it shows up Paying attention to where the world needs our energy  Emily’s experience at an all-female college and how that had a profound impact on her life How to create space for sisterhood in your own life Why Emily says that if we don’t look out for each other, none of us will truly be able to rise up Sisterhood versus female friendships and what sets them apart Sisterhood circles and the power of holding space for one another The inherent structure of sisterhood circles and how to set one up Relationships as a mirror and how to use them as a tool for personal growth and evolution Why Emily says if we can see it them then it means it exists in us Sisterhood as a tool to examine our judgments and perceived flaws The gifts of difficult situations and how sisterhood allows us to see the bigger picture Finding the balance between giving and receiving and why Emily says we should probably be receiving way more than we think we should Resetting the being in order to inform the doing Emily’s definition of everyday magic and how it shows up in her life Connect with Emily Cassel online: Website Instagram Podcast Facebook Private FB Group Resource Links: The Millionth Circle* by Dr. Jean Shinoda Bolen Hit me up: Twitter: @emilylevenson and #somekindofmagic Instagram: @emilylevenson and #somekindofmagic FB Page: Emily Levenson * This is an affiliate link.

As one of the fastest growing areas within medicine, the anti-aging business is now a $122 billion dollar industry with researchers dedicating their careers to finding the fountain of youth. Whether it be copper peptides or acai supplements, most of the anti-aging industry focuses on limited aspects of eternal youth and vitality. But my guest on today's podcast believes it is time to apply the latest research into a new area of anti-aging medicine she calls "movement longevity". In her new book , Podiatrist & Human Movement Specialist Dr. Emily Splichal explores the science behind barefoot training and how this often overlooked area of health and fitness is actually the secret to youthful movement. As an internationally-renown educator on barefoot training, Dr. Emily has traveled the world exploring the concept of movement efficiency from the ground up. Through barefoot science, fascial fitness and neuromuscular conditioning, she will show you how to survive the unnatural conditions of today’s shod society and optimize your movement patterns. From barefoot activation exercises, to vitamin supplements to protect your peripheral nerves, Barefoot Strong is a go-to guide to ensure years of efficient movement – one step at a time. As a Podiatrist, Human Movement Specialist and Global Leader in Barefoot Science and Rehabilitation, Dr. Splichal has developed a keen eye for movement dysfunction and neuromuscular control during gait. Functional and Regenerative Medicine and the role of anti-aging science as it relates to movement longevity is where Dr Splichal's passion is focused and has led to her notoriety within Podiatry.

This week's guest reached out to me a few months ago after she came across the podcast while driving across the country in search of relief from her chronic post-concussion symptoms (PCS).  Emily Allard is a pro softball player who is still dealing with the effects of PCS while trying to earn a spot on Canada’s Olympic team.  Part of her message can be found below: Kevin -- My name is Emily Allard and I am a professional softball player out of Chicago. I grew up in the Bay Area and went to school at Northwestern. I had four surgeries in college, two more in the pros, but about 18 months ago my life was turned upside down when I sustained my second concussion. I haven't been the same since.  I stumbled upon your podcast during my 32 hour drive from California to Chicago. I was leaving the facility I was rehabbing at and there was something about driving cross-country -- alone -- that brought comfort and timeliness in your podcast. Not only did it kill more than a few hours of my time in the middle of Nevada, Utah, Wyoming, Nebraska, etc... it left me wanting more and hoping for the chance to share my own story. From the few I selected to listen to, it sounded like everyone had already made their decision to stop playing or come to terms with what had happened to them. I am still very much in the thick of those emotions and have NOT decided what I want to do yet (I'm currently pursuing an Olympic spot on Team Canada pending clearance) ... I think there's a very unique opportunity here to share the back-and-forth emotions I feel everyday wondering what my next move is...  I also felt there was a unique perspective to be told through Emily's experience that could help other athletes facing the same dilemma. Below are other topics we discuss throughout this episode: The story of Emily's first concussion sustained while pitching back in 2008 and the recovery from that injury. How a broken thumb programmed “toughness” in her. Why there will always be certain situations where concussion protocols don’t seem to exist (unfortunately). The story of Emily's second concussion that has left her with chronic PCS symptoms and the extreme isolation and frustrated that has ensued. Discussion of the 6 surgeries (non-concussion related) Emily has overcome in her athletic career. The differences in concussion management and treatment between 2008 and 2016. Specific symptoms Emily still struggles with to this day – vision (depth perception), eyes tracking side to side, elevated heart rate, headaches, cognitive (stuttering, forgetful, drops things). "Everyone is facing their own silent battles." Thoughts feelings and emotions surrounding her symptoms.  Why doing more isn’t going to make it better, which is the opposite of training in sports. What happened when Emily tried to play through her symptoms. Why pro softball players might want to consider unionizing. How most of Emily's injuries stemmed from overuse and not listening to her body. The frustrations with lack of a specific protocol in concussion recovery. Pushing through injuries that lead to other injuries. How basketball kept Emily healthy. The role of the slapper in softball and the creativity that role requires.  The value of seeing sports psychologist, especially while injured. Emily's passions outside of softball such as yoga and paddle boarding. Weighing the risks and benefits of returning back to softball in pursuit of a life-long dream. Why Emily plays for the kids. Advice to athletes going through what she is going through. WHERE CAN YOU CONNECT WITH Emily?

Dr. Veronica: Welcome to another episode of Dr. Veronica's Wellness Revolution. Today we're going to talk about how you talk, how you speak, and how it affects your life. As a wellness coach, I started my life as a doctor but now I coach because it's more effective. I realized people that are going to make or break them and one is how they talk about themselves and what they're doing or going to do.  One of the words I give people, "Here's what you're going to go out and do next week." And they say, "Okay, I'll try." And then I say, "Wait, no. Banish that word, try." When you try to do something it means that you're never going to get there. You're never going to do it. You'll always be trying but you won't be succeeding. No, you're going to do. And so for a lot of times... You guys hear Artemis back in the background. Of course you know. This [Unintelligible 00:01:34]. But you realize that with people you want them to do. And so one of the tasks that I work on with people is them changing their languaging, about themselves, about what they are doing or going to do.  And so my guest here, Emily Filloramo, bemoreextraordinary.com, was in pharmaceutical sales for many years, left, switched gears. Neurolinguistic program, this is what we're talking about. Try and can, the negative self-talk that make it. But you learn this somewhere. And so we're going to talk today because in transforming your health you have to have it up here. Then you have to speak it and everything can change. It's not all about diet, supplements, and exercise.  It's also about getting your mind and your spirit and emotions. So you guys know that that's what I'm going to tell you about because there are millions of people out there telling you what diet to go on, what to eat, and pushing and peddling your product. I want to tell you what the secret sauce is. Today I have with me Emily Filloramo, bemoreextraordinary.com. She also has a book, How to Permanently Erase Negative Self-Talk: So You Can Be Extraordinary. Welcome to Dr. Veronica's Wellness Revolution. Let's start by saying you're in pharmaceutical sales, a beautiful, comfortable job that people aspire to. You get your car, you get the free lunches, you get the wine and dine people, it pays really well. You get the bennies going on. And you know it's so hard to get benefits these days. But some of the best ways to get taken care of is to push drugs, be a drug pusher for a pharmaceutical company. So what made you switch? Emily: I switched because I was laid off after 27 years back in 2011. I was almost ready to retire. Another couple of years I could've gotten a big, fat pension because I had started when I was so young. And so the universe had orchestrated that 2x4 to be hit. And it was pretty painful because I had a kid. He was a freshman in college. I have three years of private college tuition left to pay so it's 180,000. And here I am I don't have my six figure job anymore. Anyhow, I dug in and I got the courage to jump off the cliff into the entrepreneurial journey. And eventually I found my spiritual calling, as a transformational magician and leadership coach. And so I launched as a nutritionist first because that's what I studied at Cornell. Made sense, right? What I found is that I didn't like coaching people how to eat their green beans, drink their green smoothies because they did well when they were with me but afterwards they fell off the wagon. And that's why 95% of dieters keep failing and gain all their weight back because I recognized they were not addressing the real emotional burns that they were carrying, the I'm not worthy, I'm not enough. And so because they didn't believe in themselves that's what was holding them back from actually sustaining the healthy habits. And so even if when you say I try, the patients say I try, they try because there's a part of them that doesn't believe that they actually deserve to be that rocking trim, healthy, and someone that deserves for everybody to turn their head and look at them. And so because it's all the old shame... we all have old shame that we're holding on to that has us believe that we don't deserve to be in the spotlight. Because our deepest fear is our light, not our darkness. And that's what drives people so self-sabotage in health, in career, in relationships, in everything that we do. And so I ended up in the training, linguistics programming but I found that that was not enough to get to real issues. And so low and behold the universe orchestrated me ending up in this training called internal family systems. It's a general physician. We all got evidence based, internal family systems, IFS, developed by Dr. Richard Schwarz, is an evidence based modality of permanent emotional healing. It's the fastest path to becoming aware of who you are. And it's the fastest path to really living as your authentic self and unleashing the most extraordinary version of who you are. Men or women you've always dreamed of becoming.  And just unleashing to the next level and whatever it is that you want to do with your life, getting spirit-led center and finding your true calling. And living life with joy on the journey to really leaving your legacy. And so that is power. Dr. Veronica: One thing that I'm noticing is a lot of us who have been in, let's say traditional, beautiful, successful careers are now moving out of those stable places to be able to go on and help people on the spiritual journey. Why do you think that is? What do you think is going on here? Emily: Especially with success driven people who lived life as they were supposed to. You do great in school. Yeah, I know. Go to college, or maybe you were told by your mom and dad you got to be a doctor, a lawyer, an engineer. Be an artist, no, shut that part of you off.  So you do what you're supposed to do. You live through this mask, this persona that you've erected of how you're supposed to show up so you get accepted by people. And so you go on this rat race. You make good money, have the kids, buy the house, whatever it is that you're supposed to do to look like you're successful. Then usually in mid-life, especially people in their 40's is like, "This is all there is? How come I'm not happy despite the money, status, and stuff? Who am I? Why am I here on this earth? I know I'm a good doctor and a lot of physicians I used to call on, but this is just a rat race." Dr. Veronica: It's funny for me. I feel like it was a year in practice that I started my own from patient zero that I knew this ain't it. Then I became more and more miserable and depressed because I had no idea how to get out of it at that point in addition to thinking that, oh my god, I spent so many years to get here. I spent so many years to get here and now I can't stand it. What am I going to do? In addition too, because in our culture and society people are just so sick nobody's going to help you get out because they want you as their doctor. Emily: And I think the other frustration that a lot of physicians used to share with me is I give them these tools. The same old song and dance, you got to eat right, you got to exercise, move your body. And so these patients try and they don't succeed. Because they want to just stay in the darkness because... Oh my god, I just had a conversation the other day with a new client and she says, "Oh my god, who am I if I showed up in my thousand watt light? I've never shown up in that way." And so it's scary. You need to do the emotional healing work. Because what happens is we're so off from center because we don't have the right story in our head. So maybe there are physicians that could stay in medicine. But when you do so many inner works understand who you are and what drove you to overachieve. A lot of that over achievement can be due to... you were the smartest kid in class and the bullies all make fun of you for wearing pocket protectors or whatnot. And it's like, "I'll show them."  So we don't even know we have that story going on in our head. And then just the pressure from mom and dad. They want... It's only the way I'm going to get approval is if I get an MD, or JD, or MBA after my name. So you keep seeking validation from the outside. Because when you were young stuff happened at school or at home where you felt neglected, when you felt like you didn't belong. I had a physician that I worked with and this is one of his most traumatic moments. When he was in second or third grade he had to smell the feet of the bully on the school bus. Just imagine how humiliating that is. And the kids also shoved him down the sewer when he was in first grade.  And so he had all of these. He had great parents but he had all these bad incidences from the bullies and made him believe, took on the belief, "I am not enough. I'm not lovable. Look at what they did to me. I am ashamed." He was also a minority so you felt like I didn't belong and that's why they're discriminating.  And so that drove him to succeed and become a doctor and whatnot. Yeah, over achievement but now he is sabotaging his relationships. He's a very handsome man and he always had trouble with... Logically he knows he's handsome, but every time he sees a beautiful woman at the bar or at some party or whatever he's so afraid to approach her because of that little boy that was in the sewer. That little boy that was on the school bus believing that he is worthless. So that little voice is like, "Why would she want to go out with me?" The logical brain says, "Of course she wants to go out with you. You're successful, you're a doctor." But that little boy inside of him is like, "No, you don't deserve her." And even if he did get her to go out he'll sabotage it.  Dr. Veronica: Let's break some ground here. Because we both talk to all kinds of audiences. But I want to break a little ground here because there are some subject matter that people just gloss over and they don't talk about it. And if we don't start talking about these cultural identities we're never going to get people well.  And so we are sitting here, you're an Asian woman, I'm an African American. First we got the woman thing going on but then we have the not from the European culture thing going on. Where do you think that plays a role? Let's talk a little bit about that. As an Asian woman where were you. Because I know there was self-talk and I have plenty of Asian friends who tell me what was going on in their family.  And I look at Asian people and say, "You guys start out with an A because everybody expects you to have the A. And then you have to knock yourselves down in grades. You start out with the A. But as a black person you start out with an F and then you got to work yourself up to the whatever.  But there's all kinds of positive and negative things going on in this and I know there's plenty of people who watch you and or watch me because I'm an African American woman, or because you're an Asian woman. They're going to listen to what you have to say.  First, speak to your Asian brothers and sisters and let everybody else know a little bit about what's going on with the negative self-talk in the Asian community. And I know it's not monolithic. I understand that. When people are looking from the outside they tend to lump in. And this is one of our problems, we're not educated. But there's some Asian personas that from having friends that are Japanese, Korean, Filipino, Taiwanese, all the different areas. I've seen some similarities in the way the families operate. Talk about that and the negative self-talk. Emily: Yes. I'm an immigrant. I came here when I was nine. Dr. Veronica: I'm still listening, but keep talking. Emily: Okay. I came here when I was nine years old and without a word of English. And so I was trying to assimilate in Los Angeles which was not so traumatic. What became traumatic was when the family moved to New York in the middle of junior high, in the middle of the school year. And we ended up living in a two bedroom, non-air conditioned, third floor walkup for six people, four kids and two parents, one bathroom. And so it was not fun.  I just felt so ashamed for having to live that way. We were one of the poorest kids on the block. And so the first neighborhood that we lived in there were a lot of African Americans in the school and I was teased a lot for being Asian. I was called all sorts of discriminatory names. And I didn't share those with my parents.  My parents was toxicity at home with the way my father was emotionally abusing my mother, belittling her. And just witnessing that was horrible. And so I didn't feel the love at home because there was no love between them. So they didn't know how to show up as parents. And so I had to break up their fights and stuff, so I had bad trauma.  And then I have all the trauma of the stuff that I experienced at school where I'm like, "Oh my gosh, I'm wearing hand me down clothing. Nothing matches. I needed braces. I felt ugly." And so that shame kept going on because we had moved again in the middle of the school year and I didn't feel like I fitted in. We were living amongst a lot of Jewish and Italian families in bay side Queens way back in the 70's. There weren't a lot of Asians. Again, I felt different. Dr. Veronica: It's interesting because Queens now is like little Asia. Emily: Yes. I know. And so the point is however we grow up, because when we feel different that's when we take on the beliefs of I don't fit in. And so I always felt ashamed about my Asian-nes because I was never accepted as an Asian.  And I had an incident where I was at the home of a Jewish boy working on a project, somebody that I had a crush on. And his mother comes home and just says to him, "Take her home please. She doesn't need to come here and do this project with you." It was just the way that she said and I remembered just being frozen. It's like, "Oh my god, here I am being discriminated against." So all of that toxicity at home and then the stuff that I was feeling at school, it drove my overachievement gene, because I said, "I got to get out of here." I am never coming back home.  Fortunately, I got into Cornell, got into a good school, but at Cornell the discrimination continued. I was in the fraternity parties and the frat boys I was overhearing them saying, "You got to go ask that chink to dance with you." The names that I was called it was horrifying. I kind of shoved all of that shame under the rug and I was fortunate that I was able to get a great job. Eight months out of college I started working for Pfizer, got out on my own. And because I was now making money I wasn't poor anymore, I decorated myself in designer clothing. I made sure I looked perfect to just make sure nobody knew who that Emily was underneath all of this package of perfection. And there's a saying that perfectionism is just shame wrapped up in a pretty little box. And that's what I was hiding. And so I met my husband, got married, had a kid, and all that other kind of stuff. I have another trauma which is when I was five months pregnant. My husband suffered a heart attack. He was only 38, I was 29. That's a whole another side of the story. He's alive today. He's doing well. But for 15 years I had to deal with raising a kid and trying to figure out is his next shoe going to drop. When is he going to die? He's gone through a couple of angioplasties, quadruple bypass surgery, all that stuff.  I was frozen. I lived a numbed out life. I was like, "Okay, just keep making money. You got health insurance and just do what you're supposed to do. Go out on a nice vacation." But then at the end of the day I really wasn't addressing the fact that I really wasn't satisfied. I was doing my job in my sleep but I knew that there was more of me that could be unleashed, I just didn't know what that was going to look like. And I wasn't going to worry about it until I retired. The universe had a different game plan.  In 2011 that's when they decided, okay, it's time to lay you off and to wake you up. And so on this entrepreneurial journey is where I found my joy. Even though it's extremely hard. I've hit many speed bumps, got into very stinky potholes, gotten stuck there. The rest of my emotional karma stuff that wasn't worked on had to be worked out. And so the reason why I gained this courage and fearlessness to go on the entrepreneurial journey was because 10 years prior, in my 40, I'm 54 now. In my 40's all of the emotional baggage that I've never addressed kind of came to the surface and I ended up in a depression and anxiety state for a year. It was triggered by a situation at work which led me to address all of the anger and range that I had towards my father for the way he treated my mother. The anger and rage for him being so afraid and not being able to support the family in a way where I could at least had clothing that made me feel like I fit in with the group. The anger and rage of not being able to afford braces for me to feel like I look normal. And I also addressed all of the shame of being Asian that I had to address.  Initially I had gone to a hypnotist to heal and I had to go back and access these young parts of me, including the part of me that was growing inside of my mother's womb. I was the oldest of four kids. What's interesting is looking at the picture, my mother being pregnant with me I knew right then and there that fetus, she was praying for me to be a boy. Because my grandmother used to say to my mother all the time, keep getting pregnant until you produce sons.  As a fetus that's growing we pick up on all those energy. I knew that I was a worthless human being from the very get go. So it was me, my sister, and my two brothers. And even when my grandfather died he only asked for my brothers to go back to Taiwan. And he didn't ask for me and my sister. It's just all the cultural burdens. It's not their fault. They were downloading these beliefs and programming it to us. It's a legacy part that we have to release. It's not my parents' fault that they were fighting with each other or they couldn't be present for me. It's because they are wounded. They didn't do the healing. So when we do our healing that's when we forgive all of the people that have hurt us. And we forgive ourselves. And so I had to do all these healing, repairing all these young parts of me that didn't feel... Because when you're experiencing that kind of trauma. You take on the beliefs that I must not be worthy. I must not be lovable. I must not be enough. That's why I get discriminated against, that's why I get made fun of.  And what happens is there's parts of you that go into overdrive to try to overcompensate, so the overachievement gene. You're overachievement to try to show that you are worthy. So my drive to make money to make myself look good. Now we're doing it for the wrong reasons and that's why it will come back to haunt you especially in midlife. Dr. Veronica: Some of these issues that are societal and cultural don't necessarily go away. But there are people who end up thriving because they heal from them. And people who are hurting with spiritual, emotional, and physical issues want to know how to heal. So you talk about this negative self-talk and how to be extraordinary. And you specifically talk a lot about people attracting love into their lives and why they cannot attract love into their lives. I deal with people like this all the time and one of their biggest sources of pain is they don't have a life partner. And so you talk about, "Hey, this is what you're doing wrong. Here's how you shifted." Talk a little bit about what people attract in their life. Because people just feel like, "I always get the bad guys or I never get the bad guys."  We're in a culture now as African American women, we feel like we're the last chosen. I look at Asian women, I think, those are the pretty dolls that everybody wants. Everybody wants an Asian woman. Which I think is a burden to be thought of like that of course. On the other side when you're put up on that pedestal and everybody wants you and they're going to take care of you that's different than being from a group of women where you feel like you're the last chosen all the time. Emily: Yeah. I find that fascinating. Knowing how I grew up, like, "Why would they want me? Here I am, the Asian that nobody wanted." And now all of a sudden all these men... Dr. Veronica: Everybody thinks you're hot. Emily: Why didn't they think I was hot when I was growing up? Wayne Dyer famously said you will not attract what you want into your life, you will attract who you are. So if you're attracting the same losers over and over again it's because it's a reflection of who you feel you are on the inside. So if you don't think you're worthy that's the energy that gets transmitted. And if you're addicted to stuff you're going to attract another addict. If you're so used to watching your dad beat the heck out of your mom or vice versa then that's a familiar energy. So you're going to attract that energy because that little girl inside of you who has not been healed is attracted to the little boy inside of him that has not been healed, so it's familiar.  The goal of a love relationship is for us to finish childhood. And that is why we are attracted to the people. There's one group of people that is attracted to the people with the positive and the negative qualities of the people that hurt us in the past. "Oh my gosh, no wonder I'm attracted to my father, or my mother, whatever," that's one group of people. And then another group of people is because they experience so much pain they end up attracting somebody's who's safe, who they don't go through the emotional ups and downs with. And they just live life more or less like roommates.  So absolute joy and love relationship is not going to happen without absolute depth of pain. Because the pain when you're triggering each other, you can't get along. But there's a part of you that's like, "But why am I so magnetically attracted to him?" It's because he is reminding you of somebody from the past that you have unfinished business with.  And when you recognize that and say, "Okay, he yelled at me for the way I emptied the dishwasher." I know this is not life or death but there was a part of him that reminded him of sloppily you emptied the dishwasher. Nothing is lined up directly in the cupboards. That's like a part of him that needs order and detail. And it's because it's a part of him from the past that is reminding him of the order and detail that mom used to have or whatever. Mom used to yell at him for not having things in order. So now he's trying to re-live that life through the partner and he's nitpicking on every little thing. Dr. Veronica: Turn that around just a little bit because there are people who are watching where they've been through the trauma and they get it why they were attracted to that partner that's not serving them well now. But on the other side there's people who are in relationships that seem to be doing well and it seems to be working. What's going on there? Emily: Relationships that seem to be working, you do have to eventually do... If you really want mind blowing, emotionally intimate relationships you have to work on yourself individually, and you have to work on couple relationship. Because you have to recognize that the stuff that pushes your buttons, the triggers, it's all a gift for you to grow intimately closer. And you have to recognize that when there's that angry edge that comes out it's not really anger towards you, it's really anger towards himself and towards somebody in the past.  Maybe he's so angry at the fact that you don't keep things in a neat way. Because it's really residual anger and rage towards his mother for making him do things just so. And so it's that residual anger that's coming out when he's sees that you're not really behaving in the right way.  When you recognize that that's where it's from this is when you... let's say you're the female partner, you could say, "Hey Dan, can this part of you that is so neurotic about order, can that part of you just chill out a little bit? I just need a little bit space here. What does it need from me in order for this part of you to relax?" Essentially now there's three people in the conversation. It's yourself, the husband, and then the part of the husband that has his need for order. So you're not blaming him, you are saying this is this part of you that is showing up in this relationship. "Now, you're reminding me of my father the way he used to scold me of how sloppy I was." And it just goes back and forth. When you both recognize it that is where the true healing can take place, to say, "Hey Dan, let me hold your hand. Just let this part of you know that I'm going to do my best to make it a little bit neater the next time. And if you could just relax. Nothing bad's going to happen if the dishes aren't quite stacked up in an orderly way." And so that's when intimacy happens. And so you need a tool set to understand, you're going through the doorway for Dan, this part of him that is neurotic about order. You get to know this part of him. Sometimes he gets to know this part. You kind of separate out. Maybe you use a glass, maybe the image comes out as the soldier or whatever.  We have these little sub personalities inside of our minds, of these parts of us that are kind of running our show, the voices inside of our head. And you have to separate out from that part and get to know the job of this part that's neurotic about order. What's its job? It's job is to make sure everything's in order. It's just job is to make sure that you are seen as somebody who's neat. It'll keep telling you the story. And you ask it, what is it afraid of if it doesn't do its job of keeping things in order? It's afraid that things are going to fall apart. It's afraid that people are going to judge you. It's afraid that you're going to get criticized. It's afraid that you're going to fail if things aren't in order. And so you peel back the layers. And then once this part tells you its story of why it keeps in this neurotic state then it will show you then who's the vulnerable child inside of you that this part is protecting. He says, "It's that seven year old part of me that is just crying in the closet after mom yelled at me for not lining my books up in the right way." Dr. Veronica: I get what you're saying, but there's all these buttons that have been pushed, starting from even before we're born. You're telling about things that were happening and you're parents and their thought process before you were even born. How do we incorporate that in to make it from a harming experience to a, this is one of the biggest blessings that I realized it is.  I can see things. I'm intuitive and so things flash in and I understand them on a different level more now. I see things that happen when I was young and I realized, "That's why I'm not so happy with the way my body looks in this particular situation." You can know what that is. I've been made the way I am. I love me the way I am. But what do you do when there's the negative signals coming from all over the place. And so as I'm saying, hey, you're saying, "People think I'm hot?" You were getting a signal that has been a positive signal. But for a lot of people they've been getting those negative signals. A lot of people that I work with they're overweight. And they're like, "I've always been a fat kid." And they had that negative story that's been going on and they still have it and the society at a whole is going to continue to have that picture.  And so while you're healing from it, while you're getting back your health give us some keys to switching over into that positive wealth of how the healing begins. Because I know once people start embracing these issues the problems they've been dealing with including health problems, they start to heal and go away. And it's miraculous how all of a sudden, "Oh my god, it's easy for me to lose the weight right now," or whatever it is. "My gosh, my blood pressure is lower. My medicine's lower. My cholesterol's lower." That fear, anger, and sadness that they've been holding on as they let go, the health problems go away. But the society hasn't changed. The culture hasn't changed. How do people start to deal with what's going on in the negative out there that they feel is harming but let it go enough so they can heal themselves. Emily: Yes. And so I started to talk about some of the steps of how you heal, getting to know this part. And so I'm going to describe the typical client that has the fat part. Anybody that's been through a weight struggle has this fat part of me that sabotages. And so maybe this is a good time to mention the gift that I'm going to give them. Dr. Veronica: Oh please, yes. Emily: If the audience goes to nonegativetalk.com they could enter their email and get the whole protocol of how to get to know these parts of you that are holding you back. So this way you don't have to keep taking notes. And if we're going all over the place with our conversation you have a protocol to follow.  A typical fat part story. I'm going to tell you a story of a 40-year old woman that I worked with. She had the same 15 pounds that she was gaining and losing over and over again. She was just disgusted. And she's like, "This is not giving me the energy to do what I need to do for the next step of my career because I'm so consumed with food."  And so we got to know this fat part of her. And I said, "When did this fat part of you begin?" She separated out the fat part. It looked like a Michelin... Because we get images of these parts of us. And so she got this part of her that was talking to her, and she says, "Yeah, this part's telling me that it's been my life since third grade." "Okay, what's its job? Keep you fat, keep you..." Because she emotionally ate, and to soothe the emotional pain because it was afraid... it was the fat part. Let's call her Mary. If it didn't keep Mary far what is it afraid is going to happen to Mary if this fat part didn't keep her fat? It said that it's afraid that Mary was going to get teased and criticized. If she got attention from being thin and beautiful it's afraid that she was going to be judged. And so eventually I said, "Okay. What happened in third grade that had you take on this fat part?" And it brought her to a memory in a third grade classroom when she was just frozen because she has beautiful red hair and she was amongst a sea of brunettes. And so she was constantly teased for her beautiful red hair not only by classmates but by her siblings. That part of her believed that it is not safe to shine because I will be teased. As she grew older and older, every time she just didn't feel good about herself because this part was getting triggered. She just ate to numb out that pain. And she couldn't figure out why she would lose it. She would work so hard, "Let me go on this exercise plan, this diet plan." And then this fat part will come back and just self-sabotage the whole thing.  Because the fat part's like, "You didn't get to know me. You don't even know why I keep you fat. You hate me. So the more you hate the part of you that holds you back the more it will be like, "Oh yeah, you hate me? Well guess what, I'm not going away. I'm going to keep coming back until you pay attention to me and hear my story.  As she got to know the fears of this fat part, and this fat part said, "I'm protecting that third grade part of you that's still in the classroom being shamed and bullied for having red hear." She had to update this fat part to say, "You're holding me back. I'm 40 years old. I'm trying to feel good about myself so I could have the confidence and the courage to go for this next promotion because right now I don't feel good in my body. And the fat part was like, "Really, you're 40 years old now? You're no longer seven? And I'm holding you back? Oh, wow." Dr. Veronica: Let me take it up just one notch because we all have our suffering that we go through and some people may be listening and saying, "She got teased because she has red hair." That ain't a big deal. That's really not a big deal. I was sexually abused. I was mentally and emotionally abused. And it continued for years, and years, and years. I went into a relationship and that relationship was abusive. And so red hair, that's easy.  What do you say to those people who've been through really major challenges and difficulties a lot of times at the hands of people that they trusted? What do you say to people like that about...? It's hard to say, "I'm 40 and I got to let it go when it's just..." How do you let go of that to be able to shine and be the best you? Emily: Yes. You can't just let go and just say, "Okay, I'm not that story anymore. You have to do the healing, especially for these incidences of sexual abuse, verbal abuse, these toxic things. That part of accessing that vulnerable child, that part of the journey, it would be irresponsible for me to say, "You could go and heal this yourself.  You could get to know your fat part. A lot of sexually abused people also have a fat part because it's their insulation against further sexual abuse, which is very understandable. And I've worked many sexual abuse survivors. And so you have to go in through the door way of this protective mechanism, the parts of you that you don't like and that's why you got to get to another story.  And so the sexual abuse part, people have been sexually abused, what I want to share with them is you can permanently get over the shame from being sexually abused. And your whole system has to give you permission through the guide of an expert. You can't do this on your own because you could do further damage to yourself. And if you try to do it on your own without the right tools, there's more and more protectors that are going to be erected to prevent you from actually going there. And so the whole goal is to get the whole protective system... Think of the protective system as soldiers that are guarding the door to the dungeon that's filed with these pained and shamed parts of you. And so when they give the permission, okay, now that you could hear my story of why I keep you fat, why I keep you procrastinating, why I keep you angry. You hear the story and you get it. And we're ready to transform into a more positive parts.  Let me show you the parts of you that we're protecting in the dungeon. And so they'll guide you. The highest self, all love for yourself, your highest self has the power to rescue that young part of you that's in the dungeon. And you, that young part of you will be looking at you, your 40-year old self. And that young part of you because she was abused.  Nobody was there where she felt safe to tell the whole story. A lot of abusers, they keep all that to themselves. And so when this four year old girl that was abused can safely trust you, the highest self. She tells you her story. She tells you what happened to her. She tells you the burdens that she's been holding on to, burdens of worthlessness. "I'm not lovable. I'm not enough. I'm dirty." And let her flesh all of that out to you.  And then you give her what she needed at that moment of trauma. And you pour all the love, I'll tell her it's not your fault your uncle abused you. He's broken and we have to forgive him. What counts is I love you. You are enough. And that's released as burden, that's like get it out of the body. And people hold it in certain phases. Maybe for sexually abused people they're holding it in their sexual organs and stuff where they're always clammed up when they're intimate with someone.  Whatever it is the highest self can help this young four year old heart to release all the negative energies and the burns that she's been holding on to. And we could get that four year old part unstuck from the past. Let's get you out of that house, out of that bedroom, and let's go into my current home. And let's burn that house down. If she wanted to burn the house down you help her to burn the house down.  And so as you're actually doing this, this is actually rewiring the memories at the cellular level. Untangling the trauma and then... it's called memory reconsolidation where now the new memory of when you think about this four year old part of you that's been abused, now you think about how your higher self just giving her love, and hugs, and say, "I love you. I got you." You're the one that you need in order to heal yourself. Dr. Veronica: Emily, again, tell people where they can go to get stared with your type of techniques. And before we give that I just got to say to the audience, one thing that Emily said is about you can't do this yourself. Now, in our culture and society everybody's going to Dr. YouTube and getting a degree on the university of Google.  And there's all kinds of "self-help books." But what people who are high performers know, who are in successful in life, who are healthy and happy is you have to have somebody who's an expert to show you the way. It's like when you drive a car. Somebody has to teach you how to drive that car. Would you get into a plane and pilot yourself after you've watched it on YouTube and read it on Google? So reach out to get help. There are traditional doctors and therapists but how's that been working for you? And then there are people like Emily Filloramo and her main website, bemoreextraordinary.com. But Emily, tell us about where people can get your gift again. Emily: nonegativetalk.com will give you the protocol. And then if you want to also learn more after you look at this protocol I would recommend that they read my book, How to Permanently Erase Negative Self-Talk. People, they write me letters to say, "I cried during your book because so many of the stories hit home for me." I said, "The first step to change is awareness." And reading my book and understanding the whole landscape of the internal family system model of psychospiritual healing, you're going to understand, "Oh my god, it is not my fault after all that I'm stuck. It's not my fault that I am fat."  Now, do I want to do something about it? That's a whole another phase of change. So sometimes people want to stay stuck in their negative stories because that means you don't have to answer to anything. You don't have to finally show up. And if that's what they choose to do it's their prerogative. Dr. Veronica: That's where they are. And so we're talking about this for health reasons, why? Because it's just not about diet, exercise, and supplements. It's not just about diet, exercise, and supplements. It's about a lot more than that. Emily: And what's interesting is when I was going through the training with internal family systems my teachers and professors were saying... since I used to work in the pharmaceutical industry, "Imagine if everybody healed themselves, came home to their true self and felt really good, and forgave everybody, you know what, we would not need the pharmaceutical industry. We would not need the diet industry. And all of this emotional burden stuff would be released. We don't need pills, we don't need diets because it's going to naturally heal our bodies. We will be taking many industries out of the water."  That's how powerful this is. Not that we're going to bankrupt all of these industries in our lifetime because there's just so many layers to this. Because internal family systems is not a pharmaceutical pill that some rep can go and sell to you.  Pills are the easy way to [Unintelligible 00:46:52]. "Okay, I have fibromyalgia, let me take this pill." Fibromyalgia is trying to tell you something. Cancer is trying to tell you something. It is a protector that's saying heal emotionally already. I think you and I both know epigenetics and all that stuff, 80% of diseases are caused by environmental things, things that happen to us, and it's not just genes.  Dr. Veronica: It is not just genes. Emily: You can't blame it on your genes.  Dr. Veronica: Root cause of every illness and injury is a spiritual and emotional issue which triggers and goes along with those environmental, genetic, and lifestyle factors. But if you don't have the spiritual, emotional issue sitting there in the first place is not going to trigger even the genes. You got the breast cancer gene. You're going to get breast cancer because you have an issue. Live your heart chakra in that energy center.  Emily: Exactly. If you ask most breast cancer patients why they got breast cancer, it's like, "Oh, I stayed in my marriage too long. It's the toxicity for my husband, that's fine.  Emily: Baggage with my father... Your body's always talking to you and you got to do this virtual healing, and yes, spiritual healing is not a pill. And you have to find a practitioner that you resonate with. And so if traditional psychotherapy, self-help programs have not gotten you to the finish line it's because you haven't found the right modality. Traditional psychotherapy can get you stable but really move the needle. You got to do this "clean up duty" with internal family systems.  Most of the people that are training internal family systems are psychotherapists, you could fine someone near you by going to selfleadership.org. You'll get that information or not, When you're down on my e-book. You go to that website to find somebody near you. They may even take your insurance.  And then there's a bunch of us that are trained, that are not therapist that takes internal family systems way beyond psychotherapy to help people unleash extraordinary, to help people become better leaders. Exactly, and so this is how powerful this is because at its root this is spiritual cleaning. This is not psychotherapy. You got to rescue all of those parts of you that are still stuck in the past burned with the emotional pain of getting bullied at school, sexually abused being made fun of, or you felt like you didn't matter. All those parts are just still frozen and old memories. You got to go and rescue those parts and come into the present with you. Because these parts of you now transform into something positive and they get on the same sheet of music. And they become a part of your inner team, an orchestra member that's actually playing along with you. Because you want to go from point A to point B, you want to make the world a better place, well, you got to get rid of this inner conflict that's up here. And when you fully believe in yourself, when you're madly in love with yourself that's when your vibration changes, and that's when you attract all the people and the opportunities that you need in order to launch yourself into greatness. Dr. Veronica: Fabulous. And we're going to be able to close right there. Before we close with Emily Filloramo give us the gift website again.  Emily: It's nonegativetalk.com.

Today’s show is all about confidence. Why? Emily believes you should make it your life work to cultivate confidence and tells you how to do it. Hands down men and women say confidence is the sexiest trait in and out of the bedroom. What’s preventing you from having it in the first place? Menace shares tips on how he got through his insecurities in the dating world and built his confidence. Confidence and self esteem are not about the way you look, how much you earn and definitely not how much you weigh. Emily gives advice on what women find attractive about confidence, what it means to be a confident woman and Menace shares the male perspective on the same issue. Emily also answers emails from listeners: what to do if your wife loses her sexual confidence due to weight gain, how a woman can learn to orgasm during intercourse and is it possible to masturbate too much? Find out the answers in this week’s Sex With Emily podcast.
