In this episode, we dive into the arc of the Vain Controller, the shadowy force behind performative success, image obsession, and the illusion of perfection. Known in our Inner Villain deck as Regina George (yes, that Regina George), this archetype reveals the ways we chase validation, status, and admiration—often at the cost of authenticity and trust.We unpack:Why “people pleasing” is just one face of deeper shape-shifting strategies to stay safe and resourced.How the Vain Controller expresses in culture, including its Human Design (undefined heart/ego), Enneagram type (3), and root wound (betrayal).The burn book logic of self-sabotage: When controlling image becomes more important than truth.The connection between this archetype and narcissistic personality traits—and how healing doesn't require shame, but rather, courage to be seen.The deeper spiritual medicine of trust and redefinition of success that liberates the Inventor (the transformed form of this archetype).Why “faking good” might be the most dangerous form of self-abandonment.Plus, two Am I the Asshole case studies that illuminate the painful edge between vanity, betrayal, and the fear of losing power.Key Archetypal Stages Covered:Pinnacle Villain: The Vain Controller – The one who would burn down her own castle if it meant staying on top.Successful Antagonist: The Influencer – Bulletproof facade, all approval, no intimacy.Wounded Child: The Envious – The one who mistakes wealth and appearance for worth.Covert Form: The Compliant – Faking good, performing growth, staying hidden behind praise.Hero: The Unveiled – Naked truth. Willing to lose clout to find connection.Legend: The Inventor – Rebuilding from authentic resources, turning passion into purpose.We also touch on:The time periods and cultural climates that amplify this archetype (hello, 1980s).The trap of ambition without desire.Why so many “successful” people are secretly crumbling from a lack of real trust.And how to recognize when this archetype is showing up in your work, relationships, or self-image.This one's for anyone who's ever felt like they needed to look good while falling apart, or who's ready to be seen for real—not just admired.Referenced in the episode:Mean Girls (film)The Emperor's New Clothes (folktale)Human Design: Undefined Heart/Ego CenterEnneagram Type 3 (The Achiever)“Am I the Asshole?” Reddit postsComing soon: The Inner Villain Transformation Deck launches on Kickstarter later this year.

Have you ever felt stuck in the same emotional pattern—no matter how much you try to change? What if that pattern was written in the stars… and could be healed through radical self-forgiveness? On this week's enlightening episode of Love University, we welcome Lisa Tahir—licensed therapist, podcast host of All Things Therapy, and author of The Chiron Effect: Healing Our Core Wounds Through Astrology, Empathy, and Self-Forgiveness. With a blend of psychotherapy, spiritual insight, and something called psychoastrology, Lisa helps people uncover their deepest inner wound—and alchemize it into strength. Here's what we explored in this soul-healing conversation: Your Chiron placement is your “wounded healer” key. Chiron—a celestial body named after the mythical centaur who could heal others but not himself—represents your most tender internal wound. Lisa shows how discovering its sign and house in your birth chart reveals the area of life where you've been hurt the most—and where you're called to grow the most. From pain to power: the Chiron Effect. Lisa breaks down how we unconsciously repeat the same emotional themes (relationships, health, money, career) until we face the core wound underneath—and how forgiveness, responsibility, and spiritual connection are the cure. Healing starts with empathy—for yourself. Whether your wound is around perfectionism (Virgo), rejection (Aries), or trust (Scorpio), Lisa shares how writing self-affirmations, setting boundaries, and reconnecting to joy can help release toxic cycles. Psychoastrology meets purpose. Learn how each of the 12 astrological houses reflects a unique life domain—family, body, money, love, legacy, and more—so you can understand where your triggers come from and how to transform them into compassion. Bonus: We even ask if cats are more spiritual than dogs. (She has two—Jiggy and Baby—and a strong opinion.) Lisa's message is clear and powerful: you are not broken. You are simply being invited to heal—and to remember your original wholeness. With self-compassion, spiritual awareness, and a willingness to do the inner work, your core wound can become your greatest teacher. Tune in now to Love University, and start dancing with your shadow… into the light.

We are rebroadcasting our extended conversation with Andrea Gibson as we honor their death on July 14th, 2025. The conversation, originally aired In September of 2023, was entitled “The Blessings of the Wound.” For so many of us who have been touched by Andrea's work, their death is a deep wound, one that will stretch and expand our hearts in accordance with its depth. In the episode, Andrea contemplates the deeply rooted societal fears of disconnection and of death. Facing fear, confusion, and loss head on, Andrea reminds us that healing is a return to the self, a return to community. Through poem and spirituality, Andrea draws us to see the beauty in being alive in this particular life, in our particular bodies, at this particular time. Their presence and attention is life-giving. As Andrea shares their journey connecting to the eternal, genderless “We,” they invite listeners to contemplate their identities beyond this life alone. As we let the need to know fall away, what miracles might reveal themselves to us?While you listen to this episode, we invite you to consider their words in the poem “Love Letter from the Afterlife.” Andrea writes, “ I know that to be human is to be farsighted. But feel me now, walking the chambers of your heart, pressing my palms to the soft walls of your living. Why did no one tell us that to die is to be reincarnated in those we love while they are still alive?” Learn more at https://forthewild.world/listen/andrea-gibson-on-the-blessings-of-the-wound-homageAs tribute to Andrea, we will be offering a free download of our zine, Grief, in our Friday, July 24th newsletter.

Have you ever felt like the very thing you want -(being seen, celebrated, chosen, and ACHIEVING EPIC SUCCESS) was also the scariest thing you could allow because of the 'cost associated'? In this episode, we dive into The Visibility Wound. Not just as a fear of being judged online or going viral for the wrong reasons, but as a deep, subconscious tether to community, safety, and staying small enough to "belong" and not rock the boat. If you've ever asked yourself: “Can I still belong and have support as I become more visible and successful?”, this episode is gonna HIT. (It hit to record it) Join us in the premier Dreamaway Membership for so many resources including 40+ Dreamaway-exclusive tapping sessions (90 minutes of deep-dive subconscious rewiring/EFT tapping), visualizations, 40+ tapping "Money Dates" (abundance programming), daily tapping videos, weekly energy readings, astrological updates, and so much more! https://haleyhoffmansmith.com/dreamaway @dreamawaymembership on IG Order my book, You Have the Magic: https://youhavethemagic.com/ @haleyhoffmansmith on IG/TikTok AUGUST DREAMAWAY THEME: VISIBILITY WOUND 90 Minute Session - Visibility Wound: Rejection & Belonging | Sunday, August 10th 3:30-5:00pm ET In this 90-minute subconscious breakthrough tapping session, we'll unravel the visibility wound: specifically where it intersects with rejection, outshining, and belonging. This is for the part of you that's been dimming your light to stay safe, shrinking to keep the peace, and/or fearful that you won't feel loved & supported as you rise. We'll explore and dissolve the fear that if you're fully seen, you'll be judged, misunderstood, or left behind, because these beliefs create subtle sabotage patterns like hiding wins, playing small, or resisting momentum. This session is your portal back to the version of you who knows in your heart of hearts that it's safe to be seen, loved in your fullness, and celebrated for who you actually are. Money Date - It's Safe to Be Seen Earning MORE | Monday, August 18th 8:00pm ET In this month's Money Date, we're clearing one of the sneakiest subconscious blocks to abundance: the fear of being seen earning more. Maybe it's not the money itself that feels scary…it's what it might mean to be visible in your financial success. To surpass others. To no longer be “relatable.” To be judged, resented, or misunderstood for having more. In this tapping session, we'll dissolve the guilt, the hiding, and the fear of outshining so that you can step into your next level of wealth confidently. We'll rewire the belief that your earning power threatens connection and install a new truth: that being seen in your abundance is safe, sacred, and a service to others. You're allowed to rise without losing love. And you're more than allowed to be seen in your overflow.

You'd have to be very bad at interviews, or really just conversations, to not get something from Abel Ferrara, who's the perfect combination of endearing and pugnacious, amenable to ideas while unable to entertain even a hint of bullshit. He's especially verbose discussing Turn in the Wound, his most recent documentary, which premiered at last year's Berlinale and is now streaming on the Criterion Channel and parallels the effect of Russia's war on the citizens of Ukraine with, in a slightly opaque but ultimately wise manner, concerts conducted by Patti Smith. Like many of Ferrara's documentaries––Mulberry St., Chelsea on the Rocks, or Piazza Vittorio––it wrings pathos from a concern for people and the places they live. I was only too happy to talk with him about this film and its endless concerns. I also want to note that myself and Instagram sensation Rohmer Fits will be screening Éric Rohmer's A Summer's Tale on Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday of this week's posting. Tickets are here and we hope to see you there: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/amnesiascope-a-tale-of-summer-tickets-1488838077769?aff=oddtdtcreator

What if the reason you keep choosing the wrong partner… is a belief you picked up at five years old? Much of our adult life we're actually acting from unconscious patterns that shape who we're drawn to, how we show up in relationship, and why many men feel stuck chasing chemistry instead of building conscious connection... THIS is a moment when the boy or the prince within us has to grow up into a man.

In this episode of Sovereign Rising, we explore the visibility wound through the lens of somatic memory — and why your fear of speaking, sharing, or showing up online has nothing to do with “confidence,” and everything to do with how your body has learned to protect you.

Kelly is the oldest of three siblings. Her own birth was a hospital induction—an experience that led her mother to choose home birth for her subsequent children. The intergenerational thread of trauma from Kelly's birth carried forward into her own experiences with childbirth. With her first two children, she faced intense postpartum periods, and separation from her babies. The birth of Kelly's third child, however, was a transformative home birth. This healing experience not only helped her process the trauma of her previous births but also reached back a generation, bringing healing to her own birth story as well.

ADDRESSING CHALLENGING QUESTIONSQuestion #5 | Why Does God Wound His Saints?Pastor Jay Childs
By Mark Holladay - Are you ready for a wound from a friend?
Part one of a 4 part series on Guilt and Shame with guest, Dr. Anthony Mazzella, Psychotherapist & Host of The Narcissism Decoder Podcast What if the root of so much emotional pain, self-sabotage, and confusion isn't who you are—but what you've carried? In this powerful first episode of a two-part series, Renee is joined by Dr. Anthony Mazzella to explore how shame, not arrogance or ego, often sits at the center of narcissistic traits—both in ourselves and in the people who have hurt us. Together, they unpack: What shame really is—and how it's different from guilt How shame starts in early childhood through misattunement, rejection, or humiliation The invisible ways shame shapes identity, emotions, and behavior How narcissistic defenses like projection, withdrawal, and perfectionism are fueled by shame Why people-pleasing is often a mask for hidden shame How religious, cultural, or family systems can unknowingly create shame-based beliefs Shame isn't just an emotion—it becomes a lens through which we see ourselves and the world. It's not something we feel—it's something we become. And unless we learn how to name it, it quietly dictates how we love, hide, lash out, or shut down. Whether you've lived with a covert narcissist or find yourself stuck in patterns you don't fully understand, this episode will help you name the invisible wound behind it all—and take the first step toward healing.
About seventy-five years ago, scholar Philip Young's “wound theory” revolutionized Hemingway studies with a thesis that argued that Hemingway's entire body of work was a series of responses to the injury he suffered in 1918 during World War One.Young's audacious theory invited a slew of biographical and psychological readings of Hemingway's work. Scholars incorporated trauma theory, ecology, history, and gender. Young inspired generations of scholars and also generated harsh responses, including Hemingway's own vitriolic reaction.Debra Moddelmog, the great Hemingway scholar who studied with Young at Penn State, unpacks the wound theory for us and sheds light on the man who developed it. She describes different applications of the theory, its limitations, the texts it illuminates, and its relevance to 21st-century readings.Join us as we discuss the single most important theoretical model in the history of Hemingway studies and its iconic creator.
What if the thing you've been trying to fix your whole life isn't actually the thing that needs fixing? At 38, Patty Cabot began a journey that would unravel decades of emotional pain, body image struggles, and silence surrounding childhood trauma. In this raw and inspiring conversation, Patty shares how deep inner work—not dieting—finally brought her peace, perspective, and a surprising path to love. If you've ever felt stuck or wondered why certain patterns keep repeating, this episode offers powerful insight into healing, self-trust, and reclaiming your story.Guest Bio Beginning in her teens, Patty Cabot battled drastic weight fluctuations. Desperate to break the cycle and thinking it was what prevented her from meeting men, in her late 30s Patty embarked on a therapeutic journey that led to her unresolved childhood sexual abuse. Over 12 years she worked with her therapist and EMDR, a chiropractor to release trapped “fight or flight” responses, a sex therapist and attended group therapy for sexual abuse. Patty published Not That Girl Anymore, a memoir about the alternative therapies she explored in the hopes of undoing the ruin within to claim the happiness she – and everyone else struggling with trauma – deserves.Turning 40 and finding the wound beneath the weightWhat if the thing you've been battling for decades - your weight, your relationships, your shame - was never the real issue? This week's guest, Patty Cabot, spent 20 years trapped in a cycle of yo-yo dieting, self-doubt, and emotional isolation before a turning point at 38 led her to finally confront the childhood trauma she thought she had long since buried and forgotten about. Through therapy, unconventional healing modalities, and a fierce determination to find love and wholeness, Patty transformed her life from the inside out. In this episode, you'll hear about:*Trigger warning* discussion of childhood sexual abuse; no detailsHow a cycle of weight loss and gain led Patty to uncover deeper unresolved traumaThe transformative power of EMDR therapy and what it taught her about her pastWhy anger was the only emotion she could access, and how she learned to feel moreHow vulnerability became a gateway to healing and connectionThe role running (literally!) played in finding love and confidenceWhy publishing her book helped lift the final layer of shameThe profound insight: “it's not your shame, and it's not your secret to keep”Patty Cabot's midlife transition is a powerful example of what's possible when we stop treating the symptom and start addressing the root cause. After decades of believing her weight and romantic struggles were the problem, Patty finally faced her childhood trauma head-on, peeling back the layers of self-protection to rediscover her worth and capacity for love. Her healing wasn't linear, but it was bold, and in the process, she transformed shame into self-acceptance and silence into storytelling. Today, she's helping others believe that healing is not only possible—it's worth it.If you enjoyed this episode, please rate, follow, and share The Big Four Oh wherever you listen to podcasts.

Let's stop asking the wrong questions.Recently, Steven Bartlett, host of The Diary of a CEO, asked, "Has feminism created lonely, broken men?" But that's not the conversation we need to be having. The problem isn't feminism. The problem is that we've built a society that devalues care, connection, and community.Feminism did what it was supposed to do. It opened doors. It demanded choice. But it was never designed to fix everything. And now, in 2025, we're suffering from a deeper failure, one that affects everyone, not just men or women: we are lonely, disconnected, and spiritually unwell.We have inherited a system that values productivity over presence. A society that measures success by what you earn, not how you live. In this system, care work, especially parenting, is seen as a burden, not a contribution. But here's the truth: nothing in this world matters more than the people we raise and the relationships we cultivate.I reject the idea that raising a child is a "pause" in your career. It's not a break. It's the work of building a future. And no one should have to do it alone.When Stephen Bartlett was asked if he'd take three years off to raise a child, he said no. And no one pushed back. But that's not even the right question. The better question is: How do we build a life where raising children, building businesses, and being in community coexist?This is not about feminism going too far. This is about capitalism not going far enough to include care, healing, and relationships as pillars of a functioning society.We keep reinforcing the myth of independence, forgetting the sacred power of interdependence. And in doing so, we raise individuals, not families.It's time to talk about love again, and not the romanticized version. I'm talking about the messy, vulnerable, essential kind of love that builds families, sustains communities, and makes us truly human.Let's teach it. Let's practice it. Let's rebuild our systems around it.Because the loneliness epidemic isn't a trend. It's the spiritual wound of our time.And it's time to heal it together.Let's Keep This Conversation GoingIf this resonated with you, I invite you to:✅ Subscribe to my YouTube channel for weekly talks on leadership, reinvention, and human well-being.
This is Day 3 of Untamed Woman — and today, we walk straight into the fire of the Witch Wound.The fear of being seen, speaking your truth, standing out, shining, or being “too much.” This fear isn't just yours, it's ancestral.It's carried in our bloodlines from generations of women who were silenced, persecuted, exiled, or worse for their voice, their power, their connection to the earth and the unseen.In this episode, we explore how the Witch Wound still plays out today in our businesses, our leadership, and our relationships. And how reclaiming your voice isn't just healing you… it's healing every woman who came before you.

In this deeply honest episode of The Partnership Podcast, Lauren and Trey revisit the rupture they first discussed after their NYC trip — but now, they're speaking from the other side of a powerful coaching session with their person, Dr. Joli Hamilton.They explore how separating roles in their partnership has transformed the way they handle feedback, support, and stress. Lauren introduces the term “Vision Carrier,” a phrase that finally captures the role Trey has long played in her life. At 10:42, Lauren shares the moment she felt real validation — when their coach and Trey both affirmed that her critique of Trey's self-awareness wasn't too much, it was spot-on.They discuss how denial of her feelings touched on old wounds of gaslighting from her first marriage, and how they are both working to repattern their safety-seeking behaviors in real time.And even though the work is hard (Lauren shares she felt physically sick before the session), they're recommitting to a partnership where love is prioritized over comfort.Timestamps:00:00 NYC rupture recap & coaching session reflection04:51 “Vision Carrier” and role separation10:42 The moment Lauren felt less “crazy”14:45 The difference between critique and cruelty20:30 Trey's repatterning work26:00 Love vs. comfort in partnership✨ Want to learn relationship tools like the ones we shared today?Request a free 15-minute consult at: www.sexedforyou.com/freeconsultAbout Us: Lauren and Trey are partners living in Central Virginia where Lauren owns and operates, SEX ED FOR YOU.

Today on Conscious Talk… We are in the midst of a global transformation that calls for us to heal our separation from nature and restore our partnership with the living Earth… all of which feels like a tall order in today's culture.

What are your most favorite and least-loved songs on the Replacements bootleg Shit, Shower and Shave? Adam chose this fan-favorite live recording by a band that Sam started steering him towards when they met in the 90s. Because they're such huge fans, there is almost an hour of fun stories about shows, corn and iconic logos plus Adam gets into the history of "Italian imports" before we even hit the ranks.

Send us a textWhat if your greatest wounds could become your greatest teachers?In this episode of The Better Together Podcast, we sit down with pastor, veteran, executive coach, and author Tony Miltenberger to talk about his upcoming book Wisdom in the Wound (releasing September 23, 2025). Tony shares how pain, failure, and disappointment aren't detours—they can be sacred starting points for transformation.Drawing from his own story—military deployments, ministry moments, and family life—Tony invites us to embrace our emotional edges and examine the hidden impact of unhealed wounds, especially in leadership. We discuss how healing doesn't mean hiding, the cost of numbing, and what self-awareness really looks like in a world that prefers pretending.Whether you're a leader, a pastor, or someone trying to make sense of your past, this conversation offers clarity, courage, and hope.

Episode #217. More backstory. I didn't share this part in the episode. 4 summer's ago I had this idea..I am pretty sure is was summer 2021 because it was the first summer I had been doing better since summer 2020. I wanted to read a bunch of books but I didn't. I got distracted and I think it would be cool to do that again. I talk about distractions and more on the medical model. Does medicine get to the root of trauma? I don't think it does. We carry around a wound and out of that wound comes a lot of choices. https://loudernowpodcast.com/ 12 Years Later video.. https://youtu.be/puJ9RJo3tKw https://www.instagram.com/jareddiehl8/
This week on TOWTW Podcast, Chelsea sits down with integrative bodywork and somatic therapist Joshua Marable for a serendipitous conversation about the messy realities of human connection. Joshua challenges us to go into our pain rather than around it, exploring how synchronicity, self-awareness, and somatic healing intersect with relationships. They dive deep into maintaining your sense of self within partnerships, the real talk about sex and intimacy, conflict resolution beyond surface fixes, and why infidelity is often about unmet needs rather than simple betrayal. This raw, unfiltered discussion transcends judgment and approaches relationships with the kind of radical honesty that transforms pain into growth – because sometimes the conversation you're avoiding is exactly the one you need to have.SUBMIT YOUR OWN STORYhttps://www.theotherwomanandthewife.com/submitASK US A QUESTIONWe answer questions from other women and wives on our podcast:Submit yours hereHOW WE CAN HELPJoin the Other Women Community: Use Code PODCAST to receive $10 off a community membershipApply for 1:1 CoachingOUR LINKSWebsite: https://towtw.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/theowandthewife/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@theowandthewifeGUEST BIO:Joshua Marable is Somatic Therapist at WellessenceMDWith over 20 years of experience in the somatic-related fields of integrative bodywork, therapeutic massage, mindfulness coaching, and personal training, Joshua Marable brings a wealth of expertise and dedication to WellessenceMD. https://wellessencemd.com/about/joshua-marable/
