She shares how a health scare became a turning point, why she chose to prioritize herself over expectations and obligations, and what it meant to finally bring a new dream to life by finishing her first book. It's an honest conversation about success, reinvention, and creating a life that aligns with what matters most.

Avoidant attachment is not coldness, and it is not emotional unavailability, it is emotional unprotection. If you keep pushing away the people you most want to keep, this video shows you why it happens and the concrete steps to start healing it.Relationship and childhood trauma recovery specialist Kenny Weiss breaks down avoidant attachment as a survival pattern built in childhood, not a personality flaw. You will learn why you go cold when closeness gets real, why you can feel emotionally unavailable to the one person who matters most, and what a love avoidant, codependent person actually needs to do to heal. It speaks to the shutdown or avoidant partner, and to the over giver exhausted from loving one.Kenny teaches that the love avoidant is the falsely empowered end of the codependence spectrum, so the way out is not more independence but interdependence. He walks through the five core symptoms of codependence first named by Pia Mellody and gives one concrete healing step for each. He ties the pattern to the Worst Day Cycle™, the unconscious loop of trauma, fear, shame, and denial that keeps the avoidant stuck.Avoidant attachment is not emotional unavailability, it is emotional unprotection, a survival persona built when childhood closeness meant engulfment. The love avoidant learned that being close meant being consumed, so the adult nervous system reads intimacy as danger and withdraws to survive.Healing avoidant attachment is not about becoming more independent, because independence is the avoidant's defense. It is about building interdependence, two whole people who choose to share a life by mutual agreement.Kenny Weiss is a relationship, communication, and childhood trauma recovery specialist and the creator of the Worst Day Cycle™, the Authentic Self Cycle™, and the Emotional Authenticity Method™. He is the author of Your Journey to Success and Your Journey to Being Yourself.More from Kenny: The Two Codependent Personality Types, and Codependent vs Narcissist, 3 Critical Differences.TOPICS COVERED: avoidant attachment, emotionally unavailable, emotional detachment, why do I push people away, love avoidant, dismissive avoidant, fearful avoidant, how to heal avoidant attachment, codependency recovery, five core symptoms of codependence, falsely empowered codependent, enmeshment, interdependence, boundaries vs walls, attachment styles, Kenny Weiss, Worst Day Cycle0:00 — Avoidant Attachment Is Emotional Unprotection1:10 — Why You Pull Away From the People You Want2:30 — How Smothering Parents Create a Love Avoidant4:15 — Your Independence Is Codependence in Disguise5:30 — Step One, Rebuild Worth From the Inside7:00 — Step Two, Build a Gate, Not a Wall8:30 — Step Three, Say the One True Thing10:00 — Step Four, Let Someone Meet a Need11:30 — Step Five, Practice Being, Not Doing13:00 — If You Love an Avoidant, Where to Start

Why am I so angry over little things, and why does it seem to come out of nowhere? If anger management has never actually worked for you, this video shows you the fear hiding underneath your anger and how to release it instead of suppressing it.Relationship and childhood trauma recovery specialist Kenny Weiss explains why you get so angry over small things, why deep breathing and counting to ten can make anger worse, and what repressed and suppressed anger are really hiding. It speaks to the high functioning adult whose rage seems to come out of nowhere, and to the suppressor who never raises their voice while their body quietly breaks down.Kenny teaches that anger is a secondary cover emotion sitting on top of fear, and the fear is always one of three, rejection, inadequacy, or powerlessness, what he calls the R.I.P. model. Beneath that fear is unfelt childhood sadness. He ties the pattern to the Worst Day Cycle™, shows why suppression drives rage into the body, and gives a release based path using the Emotional Authenticity Method™ and the Rage Letter, not management.Anger is a secondary emotion that covers one of three fears, rejection, inadequacy, or powerlessness, and beneath that fear is unfelt childhood sadness. Anger is a bodyguard standing in front of a far more vulnerable feeling.Anger management techniques like deep breathing and counting to ten can make anger worse because they suppress the feeling instead of releasing it. The pressure does not disappear, it is driven down into the body.Suppressed anger is linked to chronic illness. Dr. Vincent Felitti's research on adverse childhood experiences connects unprocessed rage and pain to migraines, autoimmune conditions, chronic pain, and weight that resists dieting.Kenny Weiss is a relationship, communication, and childhood trauma recovery specialist and the creator of the Worst Day Cycle™, the Authentic Self Cycle™, and the Emotional Authenticity Method™.

Financial independence isn't just about reaching a number, it's about designing a life you actually want to live. In this solo episode, I'm taking you behind the scenes of what life looks like now.I share a candid life update on everything from my current workout routine and newfound hobby of gardening to navigating one of the busiest parenting seasons of the year with three kids. I also open up about the intentional trade-offs I'm making by working less, earning less, and embracing a slower pace, because the flexibility I've gained is worth more to me than maximizing income. Plus, I reflect on some exciting milestones, including Journey to Launch turning 10 years old, winning a Plutus Award, the evolution of the FIRE Calc, and what I'm still exploring as I think about the next chapter of my work and life. If you've ever wondered what financial independence actually looks like after the milestone is reached or how your priorities can shift once you have more freedom, this episode is for you In this episode, I share: How I'm currently splitting my time between personal life and work  What it means to live in the Commander stage of financial independence and why I would not trade it Honest reflections on parenting, birthday season spending, and the concept of lawnmower parenting An update on the FIRE Calc, Journey to Launch's 10-year milestone, and what's next for the platform + more What's New in the Paperback Edition of Your Journey to Financial Freedom: A bonus chapter: When Life Happens: Staying on the Path to Financial Freedom Through Setbacks, Shifts, and Uncertainty A book club and discussion guide with prompts, exercises, and action steps Updated corrections from the original hardcover Exclusive bonuses when you purchase the paperback, including: The Fire Starter Course The Find Your FIRE Number Worksheet Other related blog posts/links mentioned in this episode: Plutus Awards: plutusawards.com Check out the FIRE Calc Get your paperback edition of Your Journey To Financial Freedom if you haven't already.

Murphy explores the human-centered skills that AI cannot replace and why emotional intelligence, leadership, adaptability, and relationship-building remain critical for career success.

There's a difference between how long you live and how well you live. And watching someone you love lose their health changes everything about how you see that gap. I am reposting this episode of Your Journey to Joy Podcast.  I get  personal. I recorded this one on my dad's 92nd birthday — and if you've ever watched a parent's health decline, you know exactly the mix of emotions that comes with that.

There's a very specific kind of heartbreak that comes with wanting another baby when you already have a child.And it's confusing, because on one hand, you feel so grateful. You have your child. But on the other hand…the longing is still there, the heartbreak of things not going to plan is still there.The frustration of knowing your body already did this once before, so why not now?And then comes the guilt: “Why am I so upset when I already have a child?”If this is you, I want you to hear this right away: you are not ungrateful, you are not selfish, you are human.And this experience has a name: secondary infertilityToday I want to open up this conversation because it's not spoken about enough. Why it can feel so emotionally complex, what might be happening in your body and most importantly, how you can support yourself through it.By the time you finish listening you'll find out:Why secondary infertility hits harder than we ever expectHow you can support yourself through itHow to navigate the emotion toll this journey takesThanks for being here on Your Journey to Fertility!

In this episode of Wild & Waking, I'm joined by Nadine Donselaar, Human Rights lawyer, Reiki and Kriya Yoga teacher, women's mentor, and author of Your Journey to Consent: A Practical Guide to Understand, Prevent, and Heal from Sexual Violence. This conversation moves through the tender, layered intersections of consent, sexual violence, gender-based violence, holistic healing, human rights, privilege, and the everyday practice of being fully alive. Nadine brings such a unique lens to this work, blending her background in law and human rights with embodied healing practices like Reiki, womb work, meditation, ritual, and energy healing.Together, we explore what it means to heal without turning healing into another endless self-improvement project. Nadine shares how her own experience with sexual violence, EMDR therapy, energy work, and writing her book shaped the way she supports women in reconnecting with their bodies, desires, boundaries, and inner truth. We talk about the difference between trying to become “better” and learning how to become more fully yourself — not as a new spiritual persona, but as a grounded, living, breathing human being in your real, everyday life.At its heart, this episode is a conversation about choosing life after survival. It's about laughing louder, dancing more freely, asking harder questions, healing in relationship, and remembering that personal liberation and collective care are deeply connected. If you've ever wondered how energy work, embodied healing, human rights, consent, and everyday aliveness all belong in the same conversation, this episode is for you.In this episode, we explore:How Nadine's personal experience with sexual violence shaped her path into healing, human rights law, Reiki, Kriya Yoga, womb work, and women's mentorshipThe difference between healing as a path back to yourself and healing as another endless self-improvement projectWhy “becoming more of yourself” is often less about understanding everything and more about feeling, expressing, and livingHow trauma can live in the body, even after the mind has made sense of what happenedThe role of Reiki, energy healing, womb practices, meditation, ritual, and Kriya Yoga in reconnecting with the bodyWhat it means to choose aliveness, joy, desire, and beauty after seasons of survivalThe intersection of personal healing and collective responsibilityThe importance of knowing your values, standards, boundaries, and responsibilities as a practitioner or leaderHow colonialism, exploitation, lineage, and privilege show up in spiritual and wellness spacesHow consent begins with understanding your own yes, no, and maybeThe complexity of accountability, enablement, harm, repair, and community dynamics after sexual violenceThe power of women gathering, sharing stories, dancing, listening, and being witnessedHow to begin again after a hard season with softness, honesty, support, and joyBe sure to hit subscribe so you never miss the latest episode!Connect with Nadine:Learn more about Nadine's work: nadinedonselaar.comBuy Nadine's book, Your Journey to Consent: A Practical Guide to Understand, Prevent, and Heal from Sexual Violence: AmazonWork with Nadine: Explore her 1:1 offeringsConnect with Nadine on Instagram: @nadine.donselaarFollow Your Journey to Consent on Instagram: @your.journey.to.consentRead Nadine's writing on Substack: A Blessing in DisguiseConnect with Emily:Website: www.EmilyReuschel.comInstagram: @emilyreuschelFacebook: Emily ReuschelLinkedIn: Emily ReuschelJoin my Book Insiders List: Sign up here!Resources and Links:Sign up here to get the inside scoop to my book writing journey!Book me as a speaker for your next event - email inquiries to emilyreuschel@gmail.com or schedule a call hereWild & Waking – Produced by Jill Carr Podcasting | Learn More

This week on the podcast we are joined by Dr. Kemi Doll, a physician, surgeon, researcher, double board-certified gynecologist and oncologist, and founding director of the Gynecologic Research and Cancer Equity Center at the University of Washington. After 16 years of training and over $200,000 in student loan debt, she turned her personal and professional experience into a mission to change how Black women are treated in gynecologic care.  In this episode, Dr. Kemi breaks down how conditions like heavy menstrual bleeding, endometriosis, and fibroids are not just health issues; they are career and financial ones. Women with endometriosis can miss up to 60 to 65 days of work a year, while women with heavy bleeding often show up to work functioning far below their capacity, a phenomenon called presenteeism.  She shares the clinical signs that your period is not normal, the exact language to use at your gynecology appointment to be taken seriously, and how to find a provider who will actually listen. We also get into her own story of resilience, how she used the NIH Loan Repayment Program to eliminate her debt while building her research career, and why she started a coaching company after discovering she was being paid 30% less than her colleagues. In this episode, Dr. Kemi shares: How untreated womb conditions like fibroids and endometriosis silently drain Black women's productivity and earning potential The clinical signs that your period is not normal and what you can do about it How to advocate for yourself at a gynecology appointment, including the exact phrases that get doctors to take your symptoms seriously How she paid off over $200,000 in student loans using the NIH Loan Repayment Program while building her research career + more What's New in the Paperback Edition of Your Journey to Financial Freedom: A bonus chapter: When Life Happens: Staying on the Path to Financial Freedom Through Setbacks, Shifts, and Uncertainty A book club and discussion guide with prompts, exercises, and action steps Updated corrections from the original hardcover Exclusive bonus The Fire Starter Course The Find Your FIRE Number Worksheet Other related blog posts/links mentioned in this episode: NIH Loan Repayment Program: lrp.nih.gov Check out "A Terrible Strength" by Dr. Kemi Doll Check out the FIRE Calc Get your paperback edition of Your Journey To Financial Freedom if you haven't already.

The Garden of Resurrection: Mary Magdalene In this deeply reflective episode of 11:11 Talk Radio, Simran guides listeners into the transformative presence of Mary Magdalene, exploring themes of devotion, inner resurrection, and the sacred feminine. Through contemplative insight and heart-centered awareness, this episode invites you to embrace your own journey of healing and awakening, where grief becomes grace and love becomes the path. MARY MAGDALENE Mary Magdalene is a central figure in early Christianity, remembered as a devoted follower of Jesus and the first witness to the resurrection. Though often misunderstood in historical interpretations, she is increasingly recognized as a spiritual leader and embodiment of deep devotion and insight. Her presence in both canonical and non-canonical texts reflects themes of inner transformation, direct experience of the divine, and the sacred role of the feminine in spiritual awakening.

In this episode, I sit back down with Cody Berman, entrepreneur, real estate investor, and author of the book Retire by 30. Cody first came on the podcast in 2018 at 22 years old. By 25, he had reached financial independence through scalable online businesses, strategic real estate, and intentional spending. He quit a corporate banking job after seven months, tried over 30 side hustles, and grew his income from $96K to over $400K in three years, all while keeping expenses under $24,000 annually. His new book lays out a menu of approaches for reaching financial freedom, not a one-size-fits-all formula, but a roadmap built around your own values, income, and life stage. In this episode, Cody shares: Why defining your values and aligning them with your spending is the foundation of a truly free life His four-bucket framework for thinking about side hustles and which type created the most wealth The exact income, savings, and investment numbers that got him to financial independence at 25 How he and his wife kept lifestyle creep in check while still traveling and enjoying life What's New in the Paperback Edition of Your Journey to Financial Freedom: A bonus chapter: When Life Happens: Staying on the Path to Financial Freedom Through Setbacks, Shifts, and Uncertainty A book club and discussion guide with prompts, exercises, and action steps Updated corrections from the original hardcover Exclusive bonuses when you purchase the paperback, including: The Fire Starter Course The Find Your FIRE Number Worksheet Other related blog posts/links mentioned in this episode: Check out Cody's book: Retire by 30 Read the The 4-Hour Workweek by Tim Ferriss Check out the FIRE Calc Get your paperback edition of Your Journey To Financial Freedom if you haven't already.

In this episode of the Career Gems for the Journey podcast, Leah C. Murphy, CEO of Career Gems for the Journey, breaks down one of the biggest mistakes professionals are making with artificial intelligence… using it like a search engine instead of a strategic tool. Leah dives into the growing pressure around AI adoption, the fear of being left behind, and the risks of blindly trusting every AI trend or headline online. She also shares why professionals still have time to upskill, why companies are still figuring AI out themselves, and how to use AI in a more intentional and secure way both personally and professionally. In this episode, Leah talks about:

Iran and the Strait of Hormuz crisis reveal how much we owe to our merchant marinersThis week, Nick Cohen talks to author, travel writer and writer-mariner Horatio Clare about the hidden world of merchant marines and the critical role they play in global trade. Horatio shares insights from his experience as a writer-in-residence on container ships, describing the challenging conditions faced by seafarers stuck in the Gulf during the ongoing conflict, including extreme heat, isolation, and the constant threat of Iranian drone attacks. They discuss how modern shipping relies on a largely invisible workforce of approximately 18 people per large vessel, predominantly from countries like the Philippines, who maintain the world's supply chains while facing dangerous working conditions and minimal oversight.Horatio explains how containerisation moved ports away from cities, making shipping less visible to the public while simultaneously making globalisation possible, with shipping costs representing just one cent for goods transported globally. They also discuss the environmental impact of shipping, with vessels contributing significantly to global pollution, and the lack of journalism or union representation in the industry, leaving seafarers vulnerable to abuse and dangerous practices like throwing stowaways overboard to avoid fines.Read all about it!

The Union of Faith and Reason: Thomas Aquinas In this reflective episode of 11:11 Talk Radio, Simran explores the timeless wisdom of Thomas Aquinas, guiding listeners into the sacred union of faith and reason. Through contemplative insight and grounded spiritual inquiry, this episode invites you to rediscover truth as both a lived experience and an inner knowing, bridging intellect and devotion in a deeply integrated path of awakening. THOMAS AQUINAS Thomas Aquinas (1225–1274) was a Dominican theologian and philosopher whose work profoundly shaped Western spiritual and intellectual tradition. Integrating Aristotelian philosophy with Christian theology, he articulated a vision of truth in which faith and reason coexist in harmony. His writings, including the Summa Theologica, explore the nature of God, ethics, and human purpose, offering a framework for understanding the divine as both knowable through reason and experienced through contemplation.

Ericka Barnes first appeared on the Journey to Launch podcast in 2019 to share how she reached financial independence in her mid-30s. Since then, her life has looked nothing like a straight line; divorce, layoffs, a new marriage, and a second retirement later, she's back to share the full story. In this brand new episode, Ericka walks us through what she's been up to since our last conversation, from rebuilding financially after a divorce, to reaching chubby FIRE  (Financial Independence Retire Early) in 2023. The financial foundation she had built; real estate, index funds, and a prenup, turned out to be more than a wealth strategy. It was the infrastructure that protected her when life got complicated. Today, Ericka and her husband are fully work-optional, house hacking in St. Croix while splitting time between Atlanta and the US Virgin Islands. This episode is a powerful reminder that financial independence isn't just about retiring early, it's about having the stability and options to navigate whatever life brings, rebuild when necessary, and ultimately design a life on your own terms. In this episode, Ericka shares: How she rediscovered her love of creative writing and the two books she is publishing this year How a prenup protected her financially and emotionally through divorce and why every couple should consider one Why she went back to work after lean firing, what chubby FIRE actually feels like, and the key difference between the two The case for geo arbitrage in a US territory and how she and her husband bought a home in St. Croix with a built-in tenant to offset the mortgage What's New in the Paperback Edition of Your Journey to Financial Freedom: A bonus chapter: When Life Happens: Staying on the Path to Financial Freedom Through Setbacks, Shifts, and Uncertainty A book club and discussion guide with prompts, exercises, and action steps Updated corrections from the original hardcover Exclusive bonuses when you purchase the paperback, including: The Fire Starter Course The Find Your FIRE Number Worksheet Other related blog posts/links mentioned in this episode: Ericka's first episode on the podcast: From Making $35,000 A Year To Being A Millionaire with Ericka Grant The Simple Path to Wealth by JL Collins: jlcollinsnh.com Afford Anything Podcast: affordanything.com Check out the FIRE Calc Get your paperback edition of Your Journey To Financial Freedom if you haven't already.

[50:10]    If you are a bright, sensitive, intuitive soul, you have high soul-esteem! But if you're not feeling that joy mirrored back in your life, you might have low self-esteem.

Doing everything right at work and still getting passed over is not a personal failure. It is a pattern, and the data proves it. In this episode, I sit down with Stefanie O'Connell, award-winning journalist and author of The Ambition Penalty: How Corporate Culture Tells Women to Step Up and Then Pushes Them Down, to dig into the data behind the very real costs women face for simply being ambitious. Stefanie spent years reporting on personal finance stories where people did everything right and still came up short. That pattern led her to a deeper investigation into systemic bias, and what she found is both eye-opening and infuriating. From salary negotiations to promotion pipelines to the way overwork culture is weaponized, the research reveals a compounding bias that plays out quietly, day in and day out, across the full arc of a career.  Rather than placing the burden on individual women to work harder or ask better, Stefanie makes the case that the most powerful response to systemic inequality is collective action.  In this episode, Stefanie shares: What the ambition penalty is and how it quietly derails women's careers through modern, hidden forms of bias How race, ethnicity, and motherhood intersect with gender to shape who gets penalized and how Why trends like the Trad Wife and the Soft Life share the same flaws as the girl boss era Why collective action, not individual optimization, is the real path to closing pay and leadership gaps + mores.

Every one of us is intuitive, but it's up to you to trust and honor what you know is true. Too often we second guess what we know our intuition is telling us, whether it's because we are embarrassed or shamed by others or just afraid. Stop treating your intuition like a hot potato that you have to immediately throw away. Instead, listen to and learn from the guidance that your spirit guides are working so hard to give you.    This week's theme is: Learn to trust your intuition.    Grab Sonia Choquette's FREE Meditation Guide!   Join the Waitlist for Sonia Choquette's New Certification Program   Highlights: Remembering Nana and her beautiful view on life.

In this episode of the Career Gems for the Journey podcast, Leah C. Murphy, CEO of Career Gems for the Journey, dives into one of the biggest conversations happening in today's workplace… artificial intelligence. From fears around job security to questions about productivity and workplace expectations, Leah breaks down what professionals really need to know about AI, workplace evolution, and staying competitive in their careers. Leah shares why AI is changing the way work gets done, how expectations are shifting inside organizations, and why professionals still have time to upskill before companies fully optimize AI integration across the workplace. In this episode, Leah talks about:

Reactive abuse is real, and it is also the disempowered survival persona abusing from the victim position. Both partners are using the same control mechanisms from opposite ends of the same codependence spectrum, and that is the truth nobody in narcissistic abuse recovery wants to hear.If you have spent years in narcissistic abuse recovery, watched every Dr. Ramani video, read every book on covert narcissism, and still keep finding yourself in the same dynamic with a different partner, this video is going to make sense of it differently than anyone else has explained it. You will see the part of the codependent dance that the entire recovery industry refuses to name, and you will see why naming it is the only thing that finally gets you free.This video walks through the Worst Day Cycle™, the Authentic Self Cycle™, and the Emotional Authenticity Method™ as applied to the reactive-abuse dynamic, with the doctrine of the Race to the Victim Position that explains why every conflict turns into a competition for who was hurt more. You will see how the falsely empowered survival persona and the disempowered survival persona are two ends of the same codependence spectrum, why the empath manipulates from below just as effectively as the narcissist manipulates from above, and the boundary script that ends the race in real time.Reactive abuse is real. It is also the disempowered codependent's survival persona running an old childhood program. Kenny Weiss teaches that the person attracted to the narcissist manipulates and controls just as much, but from the victim position, and that the path out of trauma bonding requires both partners to see their side of the dance instead of cataloguing the other side's crimes. Without that, the same pattern recreates itself in every next relationship.The Race to the Victim Position is the relational expression of the Worst Day Cycle™. When a trigger fires, both partners regress into wounded children at the same time, and the room becomes a competition for who is the bigger victim. Nobody wins that race. The relationship loses. The exit is naming the race in real time, pausing the interaction, owning your side of the court, and running the Emotional Authenticity Method™ to trace the activation back to its childhood install point.Kenny Weiss is a relationship, communication, and childhood trauma recovery specialist who works with high-functioning adults stuck in repeating codependent patterns. He created the Worst Day Cycle™, the Authentic Self Cycle™, and the Emotional Authenticity Method™. His books include Your Journey to Success and Your Journey to Being Yourself.TOPICS COVERED: reactive abuse, codependent relationship, trauma bonding, narcissistic abuse recovery, race to the victim position, falsely empowered codependent, disempowered codependent, victim position, kenny weiss, worst day cycle, authentic self cycle, emotional authenticity method, dr ramani alternative, why your therapy did not work, codependent dance, narcissist or codependent, two wounded children manipulating, healing reactive abuse, breaking trauma bonds, empath myth, both sides manipulating, manipulation from below, codependence spectrum, accountability without blame, ending the cycle

There is a reason you know what to do with money and still struggle to do it. In this episode, I sit down with Rahkim Sabree, financial therapist, accredited financial counselor, and author of Overcoming Financial Trauma, to talk about what is really driving our money behaviors and why the answer goes much deeper than budgets and spreadsheets. After more than a decade in the banking industry, Rahkim walked away from it all to build something on his own terms. That leap eventually led him to the financial therapy space, where he now helps people understand that our relationship with money is shaped by six distinct sources of trauma, from generational and observational influences to workplace, systemic, and societal pressures. He also shares what happened when a house fire destroyed his home just weeks before his book launched, and how he used his own frameworks to navigate the loss. His core message is that most financial education skips the emotional and physiological roots of why we behave the way we do. Once you understand where your money behaviors come from, real change becomes possible. In this episode, Rahkim shares: The six sources of financial trauma and how they show up differently for each person Why our nervous system responds to money as a threat, and what that looks like in everyday behavior The difference between a scarcity mindset and a scarcity reality, and why that distinction matters How he navigated his own financial trauma after a house fire destroyed his home just weeks before his book launch What's New in the Paperback Edition of Your Journey to Financial Freedom: A bonus chapter: When Life Happens: Staying on the Path to Financial Freedom Through Setbacks, Shifts, and Uncertainty A book club and discussion guide with prompts, exercises, and action steps Updated corrections from the original hardcover Exclusive bonuses when you purchase the paperback, including: The Fire Starter Course The Find Your FIRE Number Worksheet Other related blog posts/links mentioned in this episode: Check out Overcoming Financial Trauma by Rahkim Sabree: Available wherever books are sold Rahkim's Forbes Column Check out the FIRE Calc Get your paperback edition of Your Journey To Financial Freedom if you haven't already.

The sisters are taking over the podcast! Sonia C. is in Paris, so Sabrina and Sonia T. are joining up and lamenting their actual age – aren't they both still 22? No matter how old the calendar says you are, you need guidance in your life. But how can you make sense of all of the noise in your head, your heart, and your spirit? Your emotions and your intuition actually work together, and the sisters are here to show you how.    This week's theme is: Intuition and emotion work together to guide your life.    Grab Sonia Choquette's FREE Meditation Guide!   Join the Waitlist for Sonia Choquette's New Certification Program   Highlights: What do you mean we're getting older?! [:30] Is it emotion or intuition or anxiety? [5:32] Your emotions can direct your intuition. [7:22] Following your intuition takes courage! [10:35] Sabrina's wedding set her nervous system on fire. [17:01] Sonia T. tried to manifest her music dream! [21:35]  Inner conversations reflect your intuition AND your emotions. [38:55] Are you available to miracles happening in your life? [41:38] Tool of the Week: View your intuition, your emotions and your spirit as an intertwined system that work together for your good. [44:10] Question of the Week: What is spiritual bypassing and how do I know if I'm honoring my spirit? [46:16]   How can you tell if what you're feeling is intuition or just emotions? Sabrina describes her intuition as a steady drum beat, while her emotions are more like a chaotic jazz band. Your intuition is steady and unchanging, and when you tune into it there is a calming aspect to it. Your emotions can direct your intuition, so there isn't much point in trying to compartmentalize them from each other.    It can take courage to follow your intuition – just ask Sabrina. She had the perfect boyfriend, a beautiful life, and still wanted to ignore the truth. But the stead drum beat of her intuition kept telling her what she didn't want to hear. She needed to be open to making change, and today she can't imagine life any other way. What is your intuition telling you to do today?    Tool of the Week: View your intuition, your emotions and your spirit as an intertwined system that work together for your good.

Emotionally unavailable is the wrong word. The man you call distant is not unavailable, he is unprotected. What you have been calling a personality flaw is a survival strategy with a specific childhood origin and a specific dissolution path nobody else is teaching you.If you have spent years asking your partner why he shuts down, why every emotional question lands on a wall, why he can be warm in public and silent the second the door closes, this video will name what is actually happening underneath. You will see the engulfment that built the wall, the bodyguard that has been on duty since he was five years old, and the reason therapy and couples counseling have not been able to touch it. You will also see why you, the pursuer, picked him in the first place, and what your own work is.This video walks through the Worst Day Cycle™, the Authentic Self Cycle™, and the Emotional Authenticity Method™ as applied specifically to the love avoidant or shutdown partner, with the doctrine of Silence as the Bodyguard, the three core fears underneath the wall, and the blueprint symmetry that magnetically locks the pursuer and the avoidant together.Emotional unavailability is a survival strategy, not a personality. It forms when closeness in childhood meant being consumed by a parent's unmet emotional needs. The avoidant grew up in a home marked not by absence but by too much, too much emotional responsibility, too much enmeshment, too much pressure to manage the parent's inner world. The child made the only move available, which was to wall off, and the adult is still using a strategy a five year old built. Kenny Weiss teaches that the fix is not better communication, it is dissolution of the survival persona at the root through the Emotional Authenticity Method™.The avoidant has three core fears running underneath the wall. The fear of being consumed, the fear of being seen, and the fear of being responsible for another adult's emotional world like he was for his parent's. His greatest conscious fear is intimacy, but his greatest unconscious fear is abandonment, which is why the wall is the exact thing pushing his partner toward the door. This is the paradox the relationship advice industry has not been naming, and naming it correctly is the first step out of the dynamic.Kenny Weiss is a relationship, communication, and childhood trauma recovery specialist who works with high-functioning adults trapped in repeating pursuer-avoidant dynamics. He created the Worst Day Cycle™, the Authentic Self Cycle™, and the Emotional Authenticity Method™. His books include Your Journey to Success and Your Journey to Being Yourself.TOPICS COVERED: emotionally unavailable, emotionally unavailable partner, emotionally unavailable man, why he shuts down, love avoidant, shutdown partner, falsely empowered codependent, engulfment, enmeshment childhood, three core fears of the avoidant, kenny weiss, worst day cycle, authentic self cycle, emotional authenticity method, why your partner cant connect, dating an emotionally unavailable man, signs of emotional unavailability, healing avoidant attachment, pursuer avoidant dynamic, blueprint symmetry, codependence spectrum, why therapy didnt work, emotionally immature men, how to be emotionally available, dissolving the survival persona

Most people spend their entire careers waiting for the day they can finally stop working. In this episode, I sit down with Brian Herriot, author, speaker, financial advisor, and entrepreneurship coach, to dig into the concept of time freedom and what it really means to build a life on your own terms. Brian spent 14 years in corporate consulting, chased the early retirement dream, and hit the $1 million savings mark right before COVID wiped out 35% of it. In that pivotal moment, his wife asked him a simple but life-changing question: "What would you do all day?" That question launched him on a completely different path, one not about accumulating enough money to stop working, but about designing flexible, intentional work that funds a life you love right now. Rather than sacrificing your best years to reach some far-off finish line, Brian makes the case that you can build toward a "free date" rather than a retirement date, a model that works for employees, entrepreneurs, and minimalists alike. In this episode, Brian shares: How the Time Freedom Formula works, balancing lifestyle expenses, investment income, and flexible work to fund your ideal year The three money personalities (money manager, money maker, money minimizer) and which one drives your path to freedom The "Look Back, Look Ahead" lifestyle design exercise that helps you build a vision for your next 10 years Why contrast,  not constant leisure,  is what makes time off feel truly meaningful What's New in the Paperback Edition of Your Journey to Financial Freedom: A bonus chapter: When Life Happens: Staying on the Path to Financial Freedom Through Setbacks, Shifts, and Uncertainty A book club and discussion guide with prompts, exercises, and action steps Updated corrections from the original hardcover Exclusive bonuses when you purchase the paperback, including: The Fire Starter Course The Find Your FIRE Number Worksheet Other related blog posts/links mentioned in this episode: Check out Brian's book, Time Freedom (pre-order + get a free audiobook with code JAMILA), here.

What happens when you've achieved the financial success you once dreamed of, but something inside you starts asking for more or different? In this episode, I sit down with Tiffany Aliche, also known as The Budgetnista, for a real and layered conversation about evolution, grief, purpose, and what it looks like to transition into a new season of life. Tiffany shares her journey from being in deep debt and rebuilding her life from scratch to creating a multimillion dollar business and financial legacy.

What does it really look like to build a business from the ground up while balancing family, finances, and faith? In this episode, I sit down with sisters Wendy Jules and Carla Nelson to talk about their journey from nursing careers to founding a thriving med spa in Brooklyn. They share how they started with limited resources, leaned on community support, and turned a single machine in a basement into a profitable, purpose-driven business.

Have you ever caught yourself choosing work over something that actually matters even after you've done everything "right"? That's exactly what happened to me, and it made me pause in a way I didn't expect. When my podcast guest cancelled, I decided to record a solo episode instead. Shortly after, I received a call from the school nurse that my son wasn't feeling well and needed to be picked up. But instead of immediately going to get him, my first thought was whether I could still get some work done. That moment stopped me. Because I've intentionally built a life with flexibility. I don't have to release an episode every Wednesday. I set my own schedule. I make the rules. And yet, that instinct to prioritize work was still there. In this episode, I open up about something we don't talk about enough in the financial freedom conversation: reaching your goal is one milestone, but trusting it and allowing yourself to fully live within it is something entirely different. The same hustle that helps you build your life can also begin to limit you, and achieving freedom doesn't automatically undo the conditioning that got you there. In this episode, I discuss: Why the habits that helped you reach financial freedom can begin to work against you The difference between knowing you have flexibility and actually feeling it What I'm still learning about modeling both rest and resilience for my kids The deeper, often overlooked work of learning to trust the life you've built + more What's New in the Paperback Edition of Your Journey to Financial Freedom: A bonus chapter: When Life Happens: Staying on the Path to Financial Freedom Through Setbacks, Shifts, and Uncertainty A book club and discussion guide with prompts, exercises, and action steps Updated corrections from the original hardcover Exclusive bonuses when you purchase the paperback, including: The Fire Starter Course The Find Your FIRE Number Worksheet Other related blog posts/links mentioned in this episode: Check out the FIRE Calc Get your paperback edition of Your Journey To Financial Freedom if you haven't already.
