Whether you're a Hyper-Independent Woman or a Passenger Princess, today, in this solo episode, I'm diving into these two archetypes that so many of us have experienced. I explore the woman who thrives on control, ambition, and getting sh*t done — and the woman who just wants to be adored, taken care of, and fully cherished. And you know what? There's nothing wrong with EITHER.  I break down how these patterns develop, the types of partners each archetype tends to attract, why we often shift between the two, and how to consciously soften into one or galvanize into the other. Plus, I'm getting very real about my own experience as a high-achieving, hyper-independent woman who loves being doted on — but only on my terms. Confusing AF!

This episode originally aired in April 2024 and quickly became one of the most popular episodes of The Journey. Whether you're tuning in for the first time or revisiting this conversation, this episode will get you thinking about healing in a toxic culture.   In this episode, Morgan DeBaun sits down with renowned physician, author, and trauma expert, Dr. Gabor Maté, for a thought-provoking conversation about childhood trauma and attachment, the impact of societal norms on parenting, and the healing potential of psychedelics.   In this episode: 00:00 Introduction and Guest Overview 01:30 Dr. Gabor Maté's Early Life and Trauma 04:08 Impact of Early Trauma on Adult Behavior 04:56 The Struggles of a Medical Professional 08:22 Parenting Challenges in Modern Society 13:21 The Importance of Attachment in Child Development 21:30 Balancing Entrepreneurship and Parenting 24:03 Building Strong Parent-Child Relationships 24:38 The Impact of Technology on Children 25:36 Balancing Work and Parenting 28:51 The Importance of Secure Attachment 29:49 Understanding Individuation and Socialization 36:40 The Role of Psychedelics in Healing 45:16 Resources and Final Thoughts   Dr. Maté opens up about his own childhood experiences as a Jewish infant in occupied Hungary, where abandonment and trauma shaped his early years and later influenced his relationships with his children and career. Through personal reflection, Morgan shares her own experiences of growing up with a father whose demanding career kept him often away, and her tendency towards workaholism. She shares how she intends to do things differently with her own child.   As the discussion unfolds, Dr. Maté dives into his belief that we are living in a toxic culture, where stress and societal pressures take a toll on our mental and physical health. He highlights the direct link between our minds and bodies, particularly evident in marginalized groups facing systemic racism. Dr. Maté and Morgan discuss how it is in this context that parents are expected to raise children, and how cultural parenting norms often contradict intuitive caregiving practices, driven by economic necessities rather than emotional well-being.   The episode wraps up with an eye-opening discussion on the potential of psychedelics in healing trauma, with Dr. Maté sharing the emerging research and the need for better access to these powerful tools in mental health care.   To learn more about Dr. Gabor Maté's work discussed in this episode, check out his books The Myth of Normal: Trauma, Illness & Healing In A Toxic Culture and Hold On to Your Kids: Why Parents Need To Matter More Than Peers.   Tune in to this insightful episode, and make sure to leave a rating and review to show your support for these incredibly powerful conversations being had week after week!   More from Dr. Gabor Maté: https://drgabormate.com/ https://www.instagram.com/gabormatemd?igsh=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ==   Order Rewrite Your Rules: https://www.amazon.com/Rewrite-Your-Rules-Achieve-Freedom/dp/0593725050   Join the Newsletter for More Exclusive Content: https://worksmartprogram.ac-page.com/thejourneypodcast Make sure you are following Morgan's journey on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@morgandebaun?_ Follow us on Instagram: https://instagram.com/thejourneybymdb Produced by MicMoguls.

When we think of addiction, our minds often go to the "big three"—alcohol, drugs, and pornography. But addiction takes many forms.

Tesse Akpeki says " When I prioritise finding joy in what I do, success follows naturally.  Creating balance, addressing a tendency towards workaholism, seeking meaning and purpose as I aim for excellence are important features as I flesh out my pathway to wellbeing. A few years ago I came to the conclusion that I wish to enjoy what I do.   Work hard, yes of course, but not at the expense of burning myself out.  Exploration, discovery, learning and cooperation feature highly through my lens of what matters.   I am ecstatic when the work I do makes a difference to my clients and the organisations I serve."

  Bob is a pioneer in the psychology and social science of retirement. He is a five-time best-selling author, nationally syndicated columnist and recognized presenter at retirement conferences across the US. He is the founder of the Retirement Coaches Association, Certified Professional Retirement Coach Designation and Retirement Intelligence Assessment. His work has reached millions of retirement readers through seven books, twelve guides, and over 800 articles. In addition to his own writings, he frequently appears in major business media outlets such as the Wall Street Journal, USA Today, CNBC, MarketWatch, the New York Times, and more. As a former social worker turned retirement expert and author, he has found that retirement is among the most fascinating, yet least understood, phases of life. As a result, he has developed a powerful message to tackle the mental, social, physical, spiritual, and financial aspects of retirement. In this episode Bob and discuss the common misconceptions about retirement, the rise of grey divorce, and the importance of pre-retirement planning. We also tackle some tricky subjects and highlight the dark side of retirement, including loneliness and addiction, and the necessity of establishing new routines to maintain mental health and social connections post-retirement. Bob discusses the evolving concept of retirement, emphasising the importance of identity, purpose, and personal fulfilment over financial wealth and he introduces the Retirement Quotient framework, which assesses readiness for retirement through various personal dimensions, including emotional and spiritual well-being. Key Takeaways Retirement planning should focus on the individual, not just finances. Many retirees experience a drop in social interactions. Pre-retirement planning is crucial for a successful transition. The 'honeymoon phase' of retirement can lead to disillusionment. Loneliness and addiction are significant issues in retirement. Couples often struggle with identity and purpose post-retirement. Establishing new routines is essential for mental health. Workaholism can hinder the retirement experience. Communication between partners is vital for a successful retirement. Retirement should be planned as a new chapter, not an end.  The new wealth is found in work-life balance and connections. Retirement amplifies who you already are, not who you want to be. Maslow's hierarchy applies to retirement, focusing on self-actualization. Retirement requires a proactive framework for success. The Retirement Quotient assesses personal readiness for retirement. Understanding personal traits is crucial for retirement planning. Retirement is an empty bucket that needs to be filled meaningfully. Mindset and habits are essential for a fulfilling retirement. Stop waiting for retirement to start living your values. The only guarantee in retirement is the inevitability of death.

In this second part of the Know Your Why Podcast featuring Dr. Stephanie Van Deynze-Snell, Dr. Jason Balara continues the engaging discussion on achieving balance and fulfillment through flow states. Dr. Steph shares practical strategies for fostering a flow-rich life, including balancing stress, rest, and recovery, while emphasizing the importance of emotional regulation and self-awareness. The conversation delves into the role of dopamine in managing motivation, the toxic nature of workaholism, and how individuals often tie their self-worth to productivity. Together, they explore the power of vulnerability, the impact of media on stress, and the importance of visualizing feelings rather than rigid outcomes to guide personal growth and well-being. - Creating Flow-Rich Environments: Cultivating supportive spaces is essential for achieving flow and holistic health. - Balancing Stress and Rest: Chronic stress disrupts flow, making rest and active recovery vital. - Dopamine and Motivation: Understanding dopamine's role can help manage behaviors and boost motivation. - Media Awareness: Recognizing the media's influence allows individuals to make informed, healthier choices. - Letting Go of Control: Releasing rigid expectations fosters ease, empowerment, and progress. - Workaholism and Self-Worth: Breaking the toxic cycle of tying self-worth to productivity is essential for mental health. - Vulnerability as Strength: Embracing vulnerability builds deeper connections and reduces isolation. - Visualizing Feelings: Focusing on emotions rather than specific outcomes leads to more authentic growth. - Empowerment Through Self-Awareness: Recognizing unhealthy habits and taking responsibility are key steps to transformation. Dr. Stephanie Van Deynze-Snell's insights in this episode provide a powerful framework for achieving flow, regulating emotions, and creating balance in both personal and professional life. By embracing vulnerability, letting go of control, and prioritizing self-awareness, listeners can foster a fulfilling and intentional life.

Dr. Laura welcomes Bryan Robinson, PhD, a psychotherapist and Professor Emeritus from the University of North Carolina. He is also the best-selling author of over 39 books, including his latest non-fiction, Chained to the Desk in a Hybrid World. Dr. Robinson has researched and written extensively on the subjects of work-life balance, workaholism, and the impact of workaholism on families. Dr. Laura dives deep into Bryan's understanding of work addiction and how to regain perspective and balance in one's life.Dr. Robinson describes his own experience with workaholism and how deeply anxious he'd become if he didn't have work to do. Despite a failing marriage and physical health issues due to workaholism, it wasn't until he had a profound experience with the compassion and clarity exhibited by Tibetan monks that he started his journey toward balance. Bryan explains how counterintuitive it is to stop fighting and learn to float more in life, as in a riptide, but stresses it's finding balance to our fight or flight sympathetic nervous system that holds the key to self-care. Dr. Laura and Dr. Robinson talk about the lessons in his book Chained to the Desk in a Hybrid World, how Gen Z is changing the face of workaholism for the better, what “work jerkery” refers to, and how writing murder mysteries is part of Bryan's own balance in life. “I'm fortunate enough to live on the side of a mountain with an incredible view of the sunsets and just watching the sunset is fulfilling. And it also helps these creative ideas hatch. It's like an incubator. So even though I'm doing nothing, something's happening. And that's what we have to understand. Then what about my shortcomings? I can tell you what those are, but … what are my tallcomings again? People often go blank. But what you're doing is you're bringing balance to your thinking. You know, have a health day to balance out your sick days. Having green time to balance out the screen time.” - Bryan Robinson, PhDWatch this episode on Dr. Laura's YouTube channelAbout Bryan E.

How much work is too much work? Can you ever turn it off? We're exploring the roots of workaholism, its impact on our lives, and—most importantly—what to do about it. What is Workaholism? The term was coined by psychologist Wayne E. Oates back in 1971, likening chronic overwork to addiction. Just like any other addiction, workaholism can interfere with our health, happiness, and relationships. So, how do we know if we're truly addicted to work or just really engaged? The answer lies in the motivation behind the grind. Could this be you? Sometimes we overwork because of external circumstances such as financial problems, distraction from an unsatisfying marriage, or maybe pressure from our workplace. The differentiating feature of real workaholism from similar behaviors is the excessive involvement of the individual in work when it is not required or expected. Norwegian researchers the University of Bergen created a work addiction scale which uses the following seven criteria to assess the likelihood that an individual possesses a work addiction: You think of how you can free up more time to work. You spend much more time working than initially intended. You work in order to reduce feelings of guilt, anxiety, helplessness and/or depression. You have been told by others to cut down on work without listening to them. You become stressed if you are prohibited from working. You deprioritize hobbies, leisure activities, and/or exercise because of your work. You work so much that it has negatively influenced your health.   If you answered with “often” or “always” to any of these points, you may be a workaholic. And if we are agreeable, neurotic, intellectual or imaginative, we are more likely   People identified as workaholics often ranked high in terms of these three personality traits: Agreeableness – Workaholics are more likely to be altruistic, compliant and modest. Neuroticism – Workaholics tend to be nervous, hostile, and impulsive. Intellect/imagination -Workaholics are generally inventive and action oriented. But what to do about it? Redefine “urgent” Reinvent the to-do list Learning to say “no” and delegate Fixing the workaholic clock Controlling rumination Embracing rest and recovery Psychological detachment.  Physical activity.  Relaxation.  Mastery experiences (which mitigates the inclinations around workaholism)   Our lives are too precious to be consumed with work.  While work is fun and rewarding - it is not all things, so let's not get caught in workaholism or even workaholic behaviors.

This week Helen and Sarah are talking about workaholism, what it is, why it's a problem and how to respond if it's affecting you. They share ways to assess how at risk you are and lots of practical ideas for action to take back control.˚For more support, download our Podsheet that supports the episode.

MY 6-STEP PROVEN METHOD Adele-Marie, a Neurosomatic Educator and Facilitator. She has helped Katie personally with anxiety and other subjects, so we wanted to get her on the show to help you with any daily struggles you may have.  We also talk about being a workaholic, where that comes from and the need for self-care, inner work, and finding safety within oneself. Key Takeaways The integration of mind, body, and emotions is crucial for healing and well-being. Anxiety is a normal human emotion, and it's important to address its underlying causes and regulate the nervous system. Workaholism often stems from a trauma response and a lack of feeling worthy or safe within oneself. Prioritising self-care, inner work, and finding safety within one's body is essential for personal and professional growth.

Ambition…let's talk about it. We've been told it's not a dirty word, that it's ok (actually more than ok) for women to be ambitious. We've been told we should strive for C-suite positions, the corner office, and to continue reaching for higher and higher paying roles.  For Jennifer Romolini, these messages were working, yet reaching the top did not fulfill her in the way that she thought it would. In her new book Ambition Monster, she chronicles how being overly ambitious and reaching the top made her so burnt out that she ended up literally losing her voice and her job. Listen in to hear about why being forced to rebuild was the best thing that ever happened to her.  In Mailbag, we hear from a listener who's weighing the pros and cons of paying off a credit card every fourteen days to build credit. We also hear from a couple who is wondering the next best step after maxing out a high-yield savings account while saving up for a house.  Chapters: 00:00:00: Introduction 00:06:44: Jennifer's Belief in Work as Salvation 00:11:17: The Problem with Overworking 00:19:16: Finding New Balance and Living Your Values 00:24:11: Recognizing Workaholism and Ambition Issues 00:26:55: Mailbag Takeaways: The definition of ambition may be outdated and prioritize men, leading to challenges for women in the workplace. Workaholism and burnout can have significant physical, emotional, and financial consequences. Finding balance and fulfillment in work and life requires setting boundaries, making tough decisions, and prioritizing self-care. The pursuit of a meaningful life involves redefining success, living by one's values, and seeking internal gratification. Recognizing the signs of work addiction and imbalance is crucial for personal well-being and growth. Join the HerMoney community!

In today's episode of the Balancing Chaos Podcast, Chad and Kelley sit down with Dr. Christian Gonzalez to discuss the importance of the mind body connection in healing chronic disease. Dr. Christian Gonzalez, aka Dr. G, began his career as a naturopathic doctor in 2014, but it wasn't until his mother passed of cancer that he decided to shift his focus to oncology. Through his work Dr. G has made it his mission for people to understand that the relationships we have with our homes, the environment, and the people in our lives all play a role in the development of chronic disease. As he studied this concept more, Dr. G has become extremely passionate about environmental medicine as well as the mind, body, spirit connection.Throughout the episode today, Kelley, Chad and Dr. G explore the concept of separating oneself from their ego to find inner peace and balance within the physical body. Dr. G shares insights on the mind-body connection and the importance of creating space within the physical body to alleviate stress and thereby help to prevent the onset of chronic disease from hormonal imbalances to cancer. The conversation details everything from what types of symptoms and conditions arise (from cancer to cortisol imbalances and everything in between) when we're not deeply connected to our physical bodies and when we're repressing emotions, how to begin to feel tension within your body and how to process it rather than store it, how to help our children navigate their emotions rather than getting them caught in a generational trauma cycle, the TRUTH about the impact of alcohol on your physical health and what to prioritize if you want to heal a chronic condition. Get ready for an insightful episode that will empower you to explore your emotional and mental health in order to heal your physical body. To connect with Kelley click HERETo book a lab review with Kelley click HERETo connect with Dr. G click HERE
