Heavy placements in House 1 (the house of self) can make you feel constantly judged. House 7 (partnerships and the other) can tie your identity to how others perceive you. House 10 (public image and career) can amplify concern about your reputation and collective perception. Q: What is House 1 in astrology?A: House 1 is the house of the self, ruled by your rising or ascendant sign. It represents how you see yourself and how you show up in the world. Many planets in House 1 can indicate a heightened sensitivity to being watched or judged, a feeling that all eyes are on you and that everything you do is being evaluated.Q: What is House 7 in astrology?A: House 7 is the house of partnerships and "the other", everyone outside of yourself. Heavy placements here can indicate that your sense of identity becomes intertwined with how others see you and relate to you, making you more susceptible to people-pleasing patterns and fear of disapproval.Q: What is House 10 in astrology?A: House 10 is the house of public image, career, and collective reputation. Unlike House 1, which is about how you feel you're being perceived, House 10 is about how the outer world actually views you. Heavy placements here often correspond with a deep concern about reputation, legacy, and what the world thinks of your choices.Q: How can astrology help heal the witch wound?A: Astrology is a tool for self-knowing, not a fixed verdict. When you understand the placements in your chart that amplify fear of judgment, you can start working with that awareness rather than against yourself. Combined with practical magic (moon rhythms, ritual, tarot) astrology gives you a framework for shifting from overthinking what others think to trusting your own knowing.✨ What if your birth chart could explain exactly why you care so much what other people think?In Part 2 of this witch wound series, I bring astrology into the conversation. In this episode, you'll explore:

More than forty years after his twenty-five-year-old son Eric died in a climbing accident, philosopher Nicholas Wolterstorff joins Miroslav Volf to revisit the grief behind his classic Lament for a Son and his recent Living with Grief. “If he was worth loving when alive, he was worth grieving when dead.” In this episode they reflect together on mourning loss, refusing both the consolations of theodicy and the pressure to move on. Together they discuss owning grief rather than disowning it, lament as a cry that transcends analysis, and the limits of explaining suffering through theodicy. They explore Augustine and Calvin on grief, Karl Barth's “nothingness,” universality hidden in particular sorrow, and the prison classroom where incarcerated men claimed their own grief redemptively. Episode Highlights "I could not, and would not, allow it simply to heal." "If he was worth loving when alive, he was worth grieving when dead." "In my story I always say: I am one who lost a son. That's part of who I am." "Children should not die at twenty-five years of age. Nobody should die at twenty-five years of age." "It was good that I loved Eric. It was worth it. So my grief is worthwhile. And, in this world, love and suffering come together." About Nicholas Wolterstorff Nicholas Wolterstorff is the Noah Porter Professor Emeritus of Philosophical Theology at Yale University and a Senior Fellow at the Institute for Advanced Studies in Culture at the University of Virginia. Born in 1932, he earned his PhD at Harvard and taught philosophy for thirty years at Calvin College before joining Yale in 1989. A leading Christian philosopher, he helped develop Reformed epistemology and co-founded the Society of Christian Philosophers. His books span aesthetics, epistemology, justice, and liturgy, including Lament for a Son (1987) and the memoir In This World of Wonders (2019). His son Eric died in a climbing accident in 1983.

Grief-process books that failed: "inviting me to look away from Eric" "If he was worth loving when alive, he was worth grieving when dead."

After nearly a decade in Aries, Chiron enters Taurus, ushering in a powerful new chapter of collective healing. In this episode, we explore the sacred lessons of self-worth, abundance, security, and the Divine Feminine. Looking back to the last time Chiron traveled through Taurus during the Great Depression and World War II, we uncover themes of survival, resourcefulness, and resilience that shaped an entire generation.What does it mean to heal scarcity consciousness? Why do we struggle to receive pleasure, rest, and abundance without guilt? And how can we reconnect with the wisdom of the Earth to build a life rooted in true security?Join me as we journey into Chiron's sacred medicine and discover how this transit invites us to remember our value, trust in abundance, and return to the garden of the soul.

The words doctors use during fertility care can wound the patient sitting across the desk. "Failed cycle." "Poor responder." "Ovarian failure." For a woman already carrying the grief of a child she has never had, those words can feel like nails in a coffin. Oluyemisi Famuyiwa, a fertility specialist, argues that infertility grief is compounded by cultural stigma and by clinical language medicine rarely audits. This episode is based on her article "The emotional impact of infertility is grief unspoken," published on KevinMD. You will hear why up to 40 to 50 percent of infertility cases involve a male factor, why the team-based script ("do it for your partner") often gets a resistant husband to agree to testing, what social media hides about donor eggs and late-in-life pregnancies, why no supplement can reverse the biological aging of eggs, and why being culturally nosy is one of the most useful clinical skills a fertility doctor can develop.

On this week's episode of Change Agents, Andy travels to Chase Hughes' new studio to break down how human behavior is manipulated at scale, from bot farms manufacturing fake consensus to the psychological framework Chase calls WOUND that explains why outrage, fear, and loneliness keep us glued to our phones. They dig into why Chase believes the algorithm is less a sinister mastermind and more an engine optimized purely for ad revenue, how think tanks may shape policy more than most people realize, and why Walter Cronkite and Julia Child both have far stranger backstories than anyone learned in school.

Send us Fan MailBrooke Taylor, author of Healing the Success Wound, joins Joe to explore the hidden pain that comes from mistaking achievement, productivity, and success for self-worth.This episode examines the “success wound,” the belief that our worth is tied to what we produce, accomplish, or achieve rather than who we are. Brooke shares her own story of growing up in Silicon Valley, chasing gold stars, working at Google, and realizing that external success could not fill the emptiness underneath. What looked impressive on the outside was, internally, driven by a deep need for approval, validation, and belonging.Brooke explains how high achievers often become trapped in a cycle of striving, proving, pleasing, hiding, or numbing. They keep reaching the next promotion, assignment, title, or milestone, only to find that the satisfaction never lasts. Over time, that pattern can lead to burnout, anxiety, substance abuse, chronic stress, and a distorted sense of identity.Joe and Brooke also discuss:Why achievement can become a substitute for self-worthThe difference between self-confidence and self-worthWhy many high performers are only as good as their last piece of feedbackThe five success wound archetypes: the grinder, the hider, the pleaser, the seeker, and the work-hard-play-hardHow military leaders can confuse identity with rank, role, branch, or assignmentWhy values are essential for making better career and life decisionsHow aligned ambition allows leaders to pursue meaningful work without being driven by fear, scarcity, or the need to prove themselvesThis episode is for anyone who has achieved the thing they thought would finally make them feel whole, only to realize the finish line moved again. It is also for leaders, professionals, parents, and high performers who want to understand what is driving their ambition, how to separate their worth from their work, and how to build a life and career from a place of alignment instead of anxiety.Watch the entire interview on YouTubeA special thanks to this week's sponsors!Dunedain Systems is a veteran-founded defense technology company building Warmind, an AI platform that accelerates military planning, operations, and document generation.

See what we're up to and get more resources at https://thesistersenchanted.com/ . Q: What is the witch wound?A: The witch wound is a pattern of internalized fear rooted in centuries of societal conditioning that taught women (particularly sensitive, empathic, and intuitive women) to stay small, compliant, and invisible in order to remain safe. It shows up as fear of being seen, rejected, or judged, and it drives behaviors like people-pleasing, overthinking communication, and hiding your authentic self.Q: Why do I care so much what other people think?A: Caring what others think is often a response rooted in the witch wound - a deep, often ancestral fear of rejection and social exclusion. When your nervous system learned that being "too much" or "different" wasn't safe, it began suppressing your authentic self as a protection strategy. Q: What is intentional invisibility?A: Intentional invisibility is one of the most common witch wound patterns. It looks like downplaying your gifts, apologizing before you need to, staying quiet when you want to speak up, hiding your spiritual practices, or holding back from expressing who you truly are...all in an effort to avoid judgment and remain emotionally safe.Q: How do I stop caring what other people think?A: The first step isn't willpower, it's awareness. Recognizing that the fear of what others think is rooted in the witch wound (not truth) is what begins to loosen its grip. When you understand that your need to be perceived a certain way is a fear-based survival pattern, you can start addressing the root instead of just managing the symptom.✨ Why do you replay conversations at night? Why do you check someone's Instagram just to see if they're still alive or just mad at you?That is not anxiety or overthinking. That is your witch wound in action.In this episode (Part 1 of a two-part series) Sara Walka, I, break down one of the seven most common witch wound patterns I've seen across ten years of working with witchy women: intentional invisibility.-If you've ever downplayed your magic to make someone else comfortable...-If you've apologized before you even had a reason to...-If you've hidden your rituals, your tarot cards, your morning altar, or the real version of yourself from the people in your life...This is for you.In this episode, you'll explore:

It's a raw, honest conversation between two people who have been to the bottom and found their way back to something real.If you keep hitting the same ceiling no matter how hard you work...If your relationships follow the same painful patterns over and over...Or if you know, deep down, that the story you've been telling yourself just isn't true anymore...This episode will change the way you see yourself, and that changes everything.► Get Elijah's book Already Whole: https://amzn.to/4gbuuwX► Visit Elijah's website https://iamalreadywhole.com/Who is This Guy?Randy isn't some influencer who listened to a couple podcasts and started posting hot takes.

In this episode, Gunter Swoboda explores the profound impact of the mentor wound—the absence of fathers, mentors, elders, and meaningful initiation—and how this hidden wound continues to shape men's identities, relationships, and emotional lives.Drawing on attachment theory, developmental psychology, and the role of rites of passage throughout history, Gunter examines how the decline of mentorship and eldering has left many men navigating adulthood without guidance or support. The episode explores the grief that accompanies what was missed, the importance of acknowledging the wound, and how healing begins by becoming the mentor the next generation needs.Topics• Understanding the mentor wound and its impact on men• Attachment theory and emotional development• The decline of traditional rites of passage• The importance of mentorship, guidance, and eldering• Grieving the absence of fathers and mentors• Reconstructing masculinity through conscious effort and connectionTakeaways• The mentor wound is a structural vulnerability, not simply personal sadness• Father absence creates deep psychological and relational gaps• Traditional rites of passage once played a vital role in initiating young men into adulthood• The decline of elders and mentorship leaves many men vulnerable and disconnected• Healing begins by grieving what was missed and becoming a mentor for othersSound Bites“Forgiveness and grief are not the same.”“Rebuilt by hand, one boy at a time.”“The next generation's right to be shown the way.”Inside This Episode• Understanding the mentor wound• How father absence affects development• Attachment theory and emotional formation• The role of rites of passage in manhood• Cultural shifts and modern masculinity• Grieving the absence of mentorship• Becoming the mentor you needed• Rebuilding masculinity through guidance, connection, and purposeGratitudeWe want to extend a huge thank you to our listeners in Charlotte for bringing North Carolina to #10 on the Top 10 USA listeners list. And to our Global Listeners, we extend our gratitude to our listeners in Instanbul (i-stan-bull) for bringing Turkey to #16 on our global listeners list! CONGRATULATIONS!! you made the Top Listeners List.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/inspire-change-with-gunter--3633478/support.PatreonIf this episode resonates with you and you'd like to go deeper into practical exercises and guided reflection, Gunter offers extended self-development resources and exercises through our Patreon community: www.patreon.com/inspirechangeSponsorDistil UnionThis episode of Inspire Change with Gunter is brought to you by Distil Union, creators of beautifully designed, functional everyday carry accessories that help bring organization, simplicity, and intention into your daily life.Distil Union blends craftsmanship with thoughtful design to help you carry what matters most — without the clutter.

Welcome back to The Empowered w/ Deanna Merlino Podcast! In this episode, I focus on the often-unspoken “sisterhood wound,” exploring the emotional challenges and personal growth that come from evolving friendships and seeking authentic connection. One concept I discuss is how personal change can shift relationship dynamics, sometimes leading to a necessary shedding of old friendships and the courage it takes to step into new, aligned circles. A key theme that comes through is the importance of healing childhood and adolescent wounds around belonging and acceptance, as well as questioning societal programming that pits women against each other. The discussion explored the power of embracing your true self, finding safety in vulnerability, and the collective potential that arises when women support and empower one another. I invite you to reflect on your own experiences and consider how releasing old patterns can lead to deeper, more fulfilling connections and a brighter, more empowered community - and us doing this TOGETHER.

What if shame isn't just a feeling, but something that literally rewires your brain? In this episode, we explore the neuroscience of shame through the work of psychiatrist Curt Thompson and interpersonal neurobiologist Dan Siegel — unpacking what the mind actually is, why shame finds it such a comfortable home, and how concepts like neuroplasticity and attention hold the key to healing. We'll also draw some unexpected connections between brain science and the gospel of Jesus Christ. Whether you're a therapy veteran or just trying to make sense of that voice in your head, this one's for you.

Had an AHA or Insight? Share it:Alice Kao on daily authorship, childhood trauma, and six climbing gyms.When Alice Kao was three years old, her mother walked out the door carrying two large suitcases and did not turn around. When she was fourteen, her mother dropped her off alone in America near a school with some cash and left. Alice spent the next thirty years running a story about what that meant , that she was not smart enough, not pretty enough, not worth staying for. That story became the engine. It drove her through surviving alone as a teenager in a country where she did not belong, through a devastating heartbreak in Hong Kong, through building Sender One Climbing into six locations across Southern California and raising six million dollars from 115 community investors.Then she found out the way she interpreted her story was dead wrong. The facts were not what she had believed for thirty years. The wound was real. The story was not.And the voice that generated it is still there every single morning. It still wants to tell that story.If you have ever woken up and felt the weight of a story you cannot shake,  the one that says you are not smart enough, not ready, not worth the room you are about to walk into , this episode is the one you need to hear. Because Alice did not heal the wound. She built a daily discipline around deciding what it means. Every morning she chooses who is at the keyboard through authorship and it is the most underrated business skill a founder can develop. Write your own story.In this episode we go into the phone call that broke the story open, the morning practice Alice has built around narrative authorship, and why imposter syndrome does not have to be gone before you can build something extraordinary.About Alice KaoAlice discovered climbing while living and working in London in 2008, following a difficult breakup. She was inspired by the healing and self-discovery that climbing brought her, which led her to co-found Sender One in 2011 upon returning to the United States with her business partners.Alice hates following rules but loves rallying people to believe in an idea.  She wears her heart on her sleeve and is not afraid to cry in meetings.  She was born and raised in Taiwan and moved to the US when she was 14.  Alice's superpower is her ability to ask for help relentlessly, because no one has all the answers!Connect with Alice KaoWebsite | LinkedIn_____________________We appreciate you, thank you for listening.

In this Owaken Podcast episode, Lukis and Hella explore what it truly means to reclaim your personal power by leading from your inner wisdom rather than your unresolved wounds.If you'd like to try my favorite cacao, Ascend, here's a link to check it out:https://ascendmushrooms.co/products/mushroom-infused-ceremonial-cacao?variant=48292269293843In this episode they unpack how survival-based coping mechanisms such as emotional eating, pornography, gambling, social media addiction, and substance use can become attempts to avoid, numb, or regulate difficult emotions. The conversation highlights the importance of self-leadership and “self-parenting” as powerful tools for emotional regulation, healing, and lasting transformation.Key themes include recognizing and breaking unconscious patterns, overcoming people-pleasing and the fawn response, setting healthy boundaries, and choosing authenticity over fear-driven behavior. Lukis and Hella discuss building self-worth, developing self-trust through aligned action, navigating conflict with honesty, and teaching others how to treat you through the standards you set.The episode also explores the impact of unconscious consumption, including endless scrolling and digital distractions, and offers practical insights for living with greater intention, presence, and purpose.00:00 Reclaim Your Power00:40 Welcome and Intentions02:34 Wounds vs Wisdom03:30 Survival Mode Patterns05:44 Coping Mechanisms Loop08:59 Men Purpose Over Pleasure10:28 Self Leadership Parenting11:44 Fawn Response People Pleasing16:10 Authenticity vs Self Abandonment19:54 Boundaries and Worthiness23:13 Speak Up and Be Honest24:46 Ending Excuses With Friends26:06 Reframing People Pleasing27:08 Move Through Shame27:59 Friendship And Friction30:36 Wisdom Versus Wound31:20 Self Trust Signals36:34 Build Trust Daily37:25 Values And Integrity42:26 Focused Timeline Choice43:43 Attention And TikTok50:30 Self Defense Realignment53:08 Final Wise SelfFollow for more insights and inspiration:Follow Owaken:instagram.com/owakenbreathwork Follow Hella Omega:instagram.com/hellaomega Follow Lukis Mac:instagram.com/lukismac Learn more about Owaken Breathwork at:Owaken.com

In this episode of the Prolonged Field Care Podcast, Dennis sits down with trauma surgeon Mark Shapiro for a no-BS masterclass on wound ballistics. They break down why understanding the physics of penetrating and blast trauma matters in austere and combat environments — even when experience makes you cynical. From high-velocity rifle rounds and their massive temporary cavities to the infectious nightmare of shotgun wounds and the four phases of blast injury, Mark shares hard-won lessons from civilian Level I trauma centers and years training special operations medics and ground surgical teams.They tackle the myths around entry/exit wounds, when (and when not) to explore right upper quadrant gunshot wounds downrange, why you should almost never pack the abdomen or chest from the outside, how to assess neurovascular status in blast-injured extremities, and why bizarre bullet paths and “stable” patients with signs of life can still surprise you.Key Takeaways:Kinetic energy (½mv²) means velocity is king — high-velocity rifle rounds create devastating temporary cavities and fragmentation that can turn one projectile into many.Jacketed rounds still fragment at rifle speeds; never assume a clean through-and-through. Bone fragments act like secondary missiles and can create wounds up to 3x the size of the fragment.For stable patients with right upper quadrant GSWs in resource-limited settings, expectant management can be reasonable — but you must have a plan, know your limits, and be ready to move if things change.Never pack the abdomen or chest from the outside in most cases. It risks pushing debris deeper and worsening injuries. Cover exposed organs if needed, but don't shove gauze into body cavities.Shotgun wounds (especially buckshot/birdshot) are “mobile IEDs” — massive tissue destruction, heavy debris inoculation, and extremely high risk of infection, fistula, and devascularized tissue requiring serial debridement.In extremity blast trauma, assess vascular status (pulses, Doppler signals, color, warmth, capillary refill) and neurologic function. The ~6-hour window to revascularization is critical, but the decision point comes earlier.Training + common sense + adaptability beat rigid protocols when resources are limited. Sometimes the best move is observation.Chapters04:15 – Why Wound Ballistics Knowledge Still Matters (even when you're cynical)08:30 – High-Energy Rifle Wounds: Muzzle Velocity, Kinetic Energy & Spitzer Bullets13:45 – Fragmentation, Tumbling & Secondary Missiles (bone shards & unpredictable paths)18:20 – Clinical Reality: Multiple Injuries & Why “Small Entrance, Big Exit” Is a Myth22:50 – Entry vs. Exit Wounds: When Trajectory Actually Matters (and when it doesn't)26:40 – Right Upper Quadrant GSWs: Explore, Observe, or Expectant Management Downrange?31:10 – The Dangers of Packing Abdominal & Chest Wounds from the Outside34:55 – Low-Energy Pistol Wounds: How They Differ (or Don't) from Rifles37:20 – Shotgun Wounds: Close-Range Carnage, Debris & Infectious Nightmares42:40 – IEDs & Modern Explosives: Blast Physics, Ukraine Patterns & Hard-Ground Effects48:15 – Primary, Secondary, Tertiary & Quaternary Blast Injuries Explained52:30 – Neurovascular Assessment in Blast-Injured Extremities (Conscious & Unconscious Patients)56:45 – Lessons from the Trauma Bay: Common Sense, Training & Knowing When to Deviate from ProtocolFor more content, go to ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.prolongedfieldcare.org⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Consider supporting us: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠patreon.com/ProlongedFieldCareCollective⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ or ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.lobocoffeeco.com/product-page/prolonged-field-care⁠

In this episode, I reflect on All the Pretty Horses and the moment John Grady Cole meets Alejandra — not just as a love story, but as a beautiful and tragic opening into adulthood.I explore how young love, desire, fantasy, emerging sexuality, heartbreak, and betrayal become formative terrain for adolescent boys. Through McCarthy's world of light and darkness, I think about how longing can illuminate us and blind us, awaken us and wound us, and how therapy can help young men suffer honestly without turning pain into cruelty, cynicism, or contempt. As McCarthy puts it, “the world's heart beats at some terrible cost,” and much of growing up happens in that painful space “between the wish and the thing.”

Rudyard Kipling published Stalky & Co. in 1899. Set at an English boarding school in a seaside town on the North Devon coast. (The town, Westward Ho!, is not only unusual in having an exclamation mark, but also in being itself named after a novel, by Charles Kingsley.)The book is a collection of linked short stories, with some information about the eponymous Stalky's later life. Beetle, one of the main trio, is said to be based on Kipling himself, while Stalky may be based on Lionel Dunsterville.The stories have elements of the macabre (dead cats), bullying and violence, and hints about sex, making them far from the childish or idealised world of the typical school story. Edmund Wilson, critic, in The Wound and the Bow, was both shocked and uncomprehending.

Why do anomalous experiences so often arrive in the wake of trauma? And what happens when the people who understand that connection decide to use it as a weapon? This episode of Inquiry follows trauma as the hidden throughline connecting UFOs, consciousness, psychological operations, and the engineering of belief at scale. Kelly Chase starts with how human perception actually works, drawing on Donald Hoffman's "The Case Against Reality," James Madden's umwelt and über-umwelt from "Unidentified Flying Hyperobject," and Jeffrey Kripal's Filter Thesis, then grounds it all in the predictive processing model of the brain and Karl Friston's free energy principle. The picture that emerges is unsettling: trauma doesn't only wound a person, it makes them porous, loosening the filters that hold consensus reality in place. From there the conversation turns toward how that vulnerability has been exploited. It traces belief manipulation from the 1980 "From PSYOP to MindWar" paper by Michael Aquino and Paul Vallely, through MKULTRA and Operation Mockingbird, to the declassified reality of Operation Northwoods and the manufacturing of consent. It brings in Jacques Vallée's control system hypothesis and Colm Kelleher's concept of bidirectional mimicry to ask whether human institutions and the phenomenon itself may be using the same lever: disruption, destabilization, and the reshaping of belief in the rupture's aftermath. Then it turns the dread on its head. Research on openness to experience and Post-Traumatic Growth suggests the architects of mass stress made a critical miscalculation. Trauma creates openings, and openings go both ways. You can crack the shell of consensus reality to make people malleable, but you cannot control what hatches.

Why does the title never feel like enough? Why do so many of us hit every goal we set and still go to bed feeling like we came up short? My guest this week has a name for it. Brooke Taylor calls it the success wound, the pain that comes from mistaking our productivity and achievement for our worth.

Victoria shares why the belief that "I have to work hard to make money" is often about much more than money. For many entrepreneurs, it traces back to deeper experiences around love, approval, worthiness, and what it took to feel valued growing up.If you've ever felt like you have to constantly prove yourself, stay productive, or work hard to deserve success, this episode will help you uncover where those beliefs may have come from and how they're affecting your ability to receive "with ease."If this episode resonated with you and you're realizing that your hard work wound may be rooted in deeper beliefs around worthiness, love, approval, or safety, this is exactly the kind of work I help my private clients with.In my 4-month 1:1 coaching program, we use EFT tapping to uncover and clear the subconscious blocks keeping you stuck in the cycle of overworking, proving yourself, and feeling like you have to earn your success.The program includes weekly Zoom calls and Voxer support between sessions.

If you've ever felt like being fully yourself would make you harder to love, this episode is for you. Vanessa Bennett explores how the too much wound and the not enough wound are often the same core fear: that authentic selfhood threatens belonging. We talk about the way self-editing becomes a survival strategy—somatically, relationally, culturally—and how “being good” can masquerade as maturity while actually costing you your aliveness. The work isn't “just be yourself”—it's staying connected to yourself even when your full humanity makes other people uncomfortable.For educational purposes only.

What if the very thing driving your success is quietly breaking you? Brooke Taylor, Enneagram Three, career coach, and author of Healing the Success Wound,  joins me for a searingly honest conversation about achievement, identity, and spiritual hunger.. Brooke grew up in Silicon Valley where worth was measured in gold stars, landed at Google by her early twenties, and found herself drowning in a success she couldn't feel. We talk about the success wound which, as Brooke describes it, is the pain that comes from mistaking productivity and achievement for self-worth — the deeply installed belief that the more you produce and achieve, the more worthy of love and belonging you become. This wound isn't just for Enneagram Threes. It's a human condition — and it shows up differently depending on your type, your culture, your family system, and what "success" looks like in your particular world.  We talk through Brooke's five types of unfulfilled achievers — the grinder, the hider, the seeker, the work-hard-play-hard, and the pleaser — and I couldn't help mapping those to the Enneagram types in real time. We also get into the distinction between the true self, the wounded self, and the socialized (or protector) self — a framework rooted in Internal Family Systems and gestalt psychology that I think will resonate deeply with longtime Typology listeners. Whether you're a Three or you love one, this episode is for you.     Guest Bio: Brooke Taylor is a certified career coach, speaker, and the author of Healing the Success Wound. A self-identified Enneagram Three, Brooke built her coaching practice specifically for women navigating the intersection of ambition, identity, and fulfillment — though her framework applies broadly across genders. Her research includes a survey of more than 5,000 high-achieving professionals who identified as unfulfilled, which forms the empirical backbone of her five-type model of the unfulfilled achiever. A veteran of Google and a long-term member of recovery communities, Brooke brings both lived experience and rigorous research to her work. She is the founder of the Lined Ambition framework and writes and coaches at the crossroads of psychology, spirituality, and career development. Learn more at brooketaylor.co.

How to navigate friendship at work without losing the relationship, with Brooke TaylorShe's your lunch buddy, your Slack confidante, your person at work. But what happens when boundaries get blurry, or you start sensing competition where there used to be camaraderie? Workplace friendships between women are some of the most meaningful connections we form as adults, and some of the most complicated to maintain.In this episode, Danielle sits down with executive career coach and former Google marketing lead Brooke Taylor to tackle three of the most common questions women ask about navigating friendship at work. They dig into why mismatched expectations between "colleagues first" and "friends first" cause so much friction, how the success wound fuels jealousy and comparison with the women closest to you, and what happens when entrepreneur friendships blur the line between support and strategy-sharing.

Hey, Heal Squad! Today's episode dives into the hidden emotional patterns so many high achievers are carrying… and why success still doesn't feel like enough.Yup, this episode is for all of us who have crushed those work goals, hit a promotion, but yet,  weirdly still feels empty on the other side of it. Brooke Taylor…a career coach, former Google leader, and author of Healing the Success Wound  unpacks why so many of us (especially high-achieving women) tie our self-worth to our output and end up burned out, anxious, and chasing a finish line that keeps moving. Brooke breaks down what a "success wound" actually is, the three roots of where it comes from (hint, hint...it's cultural, psychological, and emotional), and why your childhood gold stars might still be running your nervous system today. She also gets real about her own rock-bottom moment: sexual harassment at Google, her dad's terminal cancer diagnosis, and getting sober at 24, all in the same month. But from that. Brooke shares the first thing that truly began healing her own success wounds and why redefining success may be the key to finally feeling fulfilled. If you've ever felt like no matter how much you accomplish it's still not enough… this episode is going to hit home. HEALERS & HEAL LINERS A success wound = when you only feel valuable when you're achieving. Brooke calls it the "empty cup." Every win you pour in (the promotion, the money, the applause) drains right back out because the cup itself is cracked.  There are 3 roots of the success wound: Cultural ( we were trained to measure our worth by what we produce), Psychological (childhood taught us that love and approval are earned by performing), Emotional (we lost touch with who we are underneath what we do) Awareness is where the healing starts. The moment you can name the wound, you take your power back. You're not broken — you're conditioned, and conditioning can be rewired.  HEAL SQUAD SOCIALS IG: https://www.instagram.com/healsquad/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@healsquadxmaria HEAL SQUAD RESOURCES: Heal Squad Website:https://www.healsquad.com/ Heal Squad x Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/HealSquad/membership Maria Menounos Website: https://www.mariamenounos.com My Curated Macy's Page: https://stylecrew.macys.com/@mariamenounos EMR-Tek Red Light: https://emr-tek.com/discount/Maria30 for 30% off Airbnb: https://www.airbnb.com/host GUEST RESOURCES: Follow Brooke on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/brookevtaylor/ Follow Brooke on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@brooketaylorcareercoach?lang=en Website: https://brooketaylorcoaching.com/ Where To Get Healing the Success Wound: https://brooketaylorcoaching.com/successwound/ ABOUT MARIA MENOUNOS: Emmy Award-winning journalist, TV personality, actress, 2x NYT best-selling author, former pro-wrestler and brain tumor survivor, Maria Menounos' passion is to see others heal and to get better in all areas of life.

If you've been questioning spirituality, feeling trapped by self-development, or constantly trying to “fix” yourself to manifest the life you want, this episode is going to feel like a breath of fresh air. In this deeply vulnerable and unfiltered conversation, Marley Rose Harris shares a life-changing realization she received during meditation about what she calls the “new age spirituality wound” and how chasing external answers disconnected her from her own inner truth.Drawing from her recent time in Nosara, meditation practices, heartbreak, healing, and her evolving philosophy around spirituality and manifestation, Marley explores how modern spirituality can sometimes become another form of control, shame, avoidance, and dependency. She opens up about losing trust in herself, restricting her life in the name of being “spiritual,” and the breakthrough that finally brought her back to freedom, presence, and self-trust.This episode is raw, real-time processing, and one of Marley's most honest conversations yet.What You'll LearnWhat the “new age spirituality wound” actually is and how it keeps people stuckHow modern spirituality can disconnect you from your own intuition and inner sourceWhy trying to control life is the opposite of true spiritualityThe deeper meaning of spirituality and the origin of the word “spirit”How Marley realized she had stopped fully living in the name of being “spiritual”The connection between control, avoidance, shame, and self-development cultureWhy heartbreak, grief, and difficult emotions can actually be deeply spiritual experiencesThe difference between guidance and dependency when it comes to coaches, mentors, and healersThe “wave analogy” for navigating life instead of resisting itWhy the most spiritual thing you can do is fully experience your lifeKey Quotes“The most spiritual thing that you can do is live.”“You already have everything within you.”“This new age spirituality wound is a prison.”“I stopped living because I thought I was spiritual.”“Trying to control life is actually the opposite of spirituality.”“When you resist life, you become disoriented.”“The answer is not outside of you.”“You are your own source of everything.”Resources:

In this episode, we reflect on how Pentecost is more than just an event of the past, but can be an ongoing outpouring of God's love and grace in our lives today. We discuss how the Holy Spirit helps heal our wounds, restores communion with God, and teaches us how to live with power and boldness, even in the places where we feel unable to love the Lord. As we prepare our hearts for Pentecost, we talk practically about cultivating a posture of receptivity, learning to invite the Holy Spirit more deeply into our hearts, and how to allow His fire to illuminate our identity and transform us from within. The Holy Spirit is alive within us, able to enter even the locked places of our hearts, and desires to help us bear much fruit in our lives.   Heather's One Thing - Pentecost | Holy Spirit Rest on Us Playlist Heather's Other One Thing - Wild Goose Series with Fr. Dave Pivonka Sister Miriam's One Thing - The Discerning Hearts Podcast App Michelle's One Thing - College Graduations   Other Resources Mentioned: Be Transformed Book Study   Journal Questions: How can I make myself more open to encounter the Holy Spirit pirit this Pentecost? Where in my life do I feel powerless? Am I allowing the Holy Spirit to make me more like Jesus? How am I rationing the boldness of the Holy Spirit? Where do I need to unlock the doors of my heart?   Discussion Questions: How can you welcome the Holy Spirit into your life in a deeper way?  What does it look like to experience the Holy Spirit in community? What gifts of the Holy Spirit do you desire to empower your work of building the Kingdom of God? How will you celebrate Pentecost?   Quotes to Ponder: "If there be among the gifts of God none greater than love, and there is no greater gift of God than the Holy Spirit, what follows more naturally than that He is Himself love…." (Saint Augustine)   "This great mystical tradition . . . shows how prayer can progress, as a genuine dialogue of love, to the point of rendering the person wholly possessed by the divine Beloved, vibrating at the Spirit's touch, resting filially within the Father's heart." (Pope Saint John Paul II, Novo Millennio Ineunte, Paragraph 33)   "A noble and delicate soul ... follows faithfully the faintest breath of the Holy Spirit; it rejoices in this Spiritual Guest and holds onto Him like a child to its mother." (The Diary of St. Faustina, Entry 148) Scripture for Lectio: "On one occasion, while he was eating with them, he gave them this command: "Do not leave Jerusalem, but wait for the gift my Father promised, which you have heard me speak about. For John baptized with water, but in a few days you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit." Then they gathered around him and asked him, "Lord, are you at this time going to restore the kingdom to Israel?" He said to them: "It is not for you to know the times or dates the Father has set by his own authority. But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth." After he said this, he was taken up before their very eyes, and a cloud hid him from their sight." (Acts 1:4-9)   Sponsor - Mary's Meals: Every mother knows what it's like to want to protect their child and provide for them, to make sure there's food on the table, to make sure her child is safe, cared for, and able to grow into who God created them to be. But for millions of mothers around the world, hunger stands in the way of that hope. Their children walk to school carrying empty bowls, wondering if today they'll have anything to eat. And that's where Mary's Meals steps in. Mary's Meals provides one daily meal in a place of education for children living in some of the world's poorest communities. And that simple meal becomes the reason a child comes to school. Once they're there, everything can begin to change. Education can become a pathway out of poverty.  So a child who is hungry can focus.  A child who is vulnerable can dream.  And a mother who felt helpless can begin to hope again.  What we love most about Mary's Meals is how ordinary people get to become a part of that story. We don't have to solve global hunger. We simply have to feed one child. And here's the beautiful thing. It only costs $25.20 to feed a child for an entire school year.  That's one child sitting in a classroom instead of sitting at home hungry. One mother experiencing relief instead of worry.  One life changed through a simple act of love. So if your hearts are moved to help, we invite you to join us in supporting Mary's Meals. You can head over to their website marysmealsusa.org (or marysmeals.ca for Canada) and together we can offer hope, dignity and a daily meal to a child who needs it most.    Timestamps: 00:00 Mary's Meals 01:39 Introduction 02:26 Welcome 03:24 Scripture Verse and Quote to Ponder 04:39 Preparing Our Hearts 07:34 Healing the Wound of Powerlessness  09:26 The Holy Spirit Enables Us to Love 11:04 Inviting the Holy Spirit into Our Hearts 12:50 Our Advocate and the Forgiveness of Sins 15:10 "It is Better that I Go" 17:14 Baptized with Fire 19:15 Bearing Fruit in Our Lives 20:57 When We Restrict the Holy Spirit 22:50 Receiving the Holy Spirit within Community 28:08 Being Inspired by the Holy Spirit 31:04 One Things
