Take your power back! Stop accepting your depression and anxiety
When you feel like hot garbage when you open your eyes try this: "I do not accept this. I do not choose to feel this way." Then get up and go about your day. It may not change your feelings in the moment but denying your depression and anxiety by stating that you no longer "accept" it, is the starting point of taking your power back. You are NOT your emotions. You can feel them without accepting them. Many folks stay in stuck in a rut of depression and anxiety for years simply because they accept it. You don't have...

CRITICISM! Can you take it!?
Let's be honest. No one likes to hear that they've screwed up. Being criticized touches on our deepest held traumas and magnifies subconsious fears and insecurities. But what if you could mindfully employ thoughtful discernment each and every time someone criticizes you and as a result transmute your perspective? What if you could better understand yourself each time someone criticized you (whether warranted or not)? What if instead of being defensive and further regressing into your trauma, you championed yourself as someone who, like everyone, is fallible but also willfully healing? Can you take it?

Of course, I believe that you should try to save your marriage. Of course, I know that conflict happens in the healthiest of connections.

The power of the PIVOT
We are all dealing with something in our lives that we perceive we are powerless against. The reality is that we fear the unknown that comes with change, so we stay. We stagnate. We languish in our misery and end up resenting the situations, people, conditions and relationships that we should be pivoting away from, yet we don't simply due to fear. Life is all about change.

Let's be honest. Do you harshly judge people whom you perceive to have more than you? More money, more beauty, more intelligence, more luck in life? The truth is: You are programmed to believe that you cannot attain the same level of wealth as others. You are programmed to think you are stuck in life. You are programmed to believe that other people have it easier. That is all it is; a program. The question is: "Do you want to break free of those programmed mindsets?" Let's get it.

There are people who struggle with real, diagnosable mental health conditions such as Major Depressive disorder and General Anxiety Disorder.

We've all done it. Vented angrily. Gossiped. Condemned. Judged. Expressed negative opinions and thoughts without a filter or restrictions without any consideration for the impact, injury or pain it causes. What we don't tend to consider is the fact that whatever we project / express is returned to us without prejudice. The message in this episode is to encourage authentic exploration of our attitudes and opinions. If we are consistently negative, we will only reap negativity. If we are intentional in identifying areas of gratitude, our perspectives shift accordingly and as a result we reap positivity. Check it out!

In this episode, I walk you through my own experience of getting to know myself first as a means of better understanding the limitations we need to place upon ourselves, our time and emotional energy and investment as opposed to the levels of tolerance we should have for inevitable disappointments when they do occur.

The power of being present
There is so much power in being present in a conversation with someone. It can be difficult to allow others to speak freely without interjecting into the dialogue personal accounts, "one ups", or comparisons. We may often find it difficult to not try to "fix" other people and their problems as they present them to us. Most of the time, when people share their experiences, problems and stories with us, they want to be heard instead of judged and nothing more. In fact, when the narrative is a huge life event or problem, people almost never expect that the...

The power to choose
So often we can get consumed with our emotional response to a situation or condition that we allow it to determine our course of action. The problem with this is that emotional states do not tend to evolve in these conditions but instead repeat and reiterate themselves when we consistently remind ourselves about it in negative affirmations. You have the power to move differently by implementing logic into these scenarios. You have the power to choose to move differently. Listen in and I'll tell you how!

Are you being intentional?
You've heard the term "life comes at you fast". Well, it's true and if we aren't intentional with our time and energy, we tend to allow our lives to merely happen. Living intentionally starts with very small but fundamental and impactful changes. Instilling a daily routine, for instance, can allow you to regain the mindfulness of the moment and spend your time purposefully instead of just waiting for the time to pass without meaning.

Suicide. Lets talk about it
It's not an easy subject but it's something that we need to talk about and keep talking about. No one wants to get it wrong so we avoid it, we hide it and we pretend not to notice. I've been there myself, so depressed that I just wanted it all to end. I just didn't want to go on. Now, I live my life with gratitude and purpose. I'm not special. It is my belief that you can achieve hope through your healing journey just as I have. I don't claim to have all the answers but I do want...

Active listening; What it is and how to do it.
We all have been there. Conflicting opinions, challenging poor behaviors and habits when talking to loved ones. We want them to do better but they tell us things and stories that we don't agree with and we feel compelled to challenge and judge the behaviors and opinions of those we are attempting to communicate with. When we actively listen, we are not being inauthentic but instead we are sharing space and time and challenging thoughts and ideas in validating, safe and caring ways. More often than not, we can get caught up in the desire for them to hear...

Healing. Who needs it?, What does it look like?, and how do you do it?
We hear about it all the time. "You need to heal." ...but what does that entail, exactly? Healing is a journey to newfound wellness in your spirit. Healing is breaking down barriers and toxic ways of thinking to grow into a sense of healthy wellness that allows room for joy to grow.

Narcissistic behaviors and enforcing healthy boundaries
What's with the obsession in social media these days over narcissism, narcissistic abuse etc? Did you know that we have all at some point in time, behaved in narcissistic ways? Instead of focusing on whether or not a person is a diagnosable narcissist, instead, focus on their actions. If someone isn't treating you right, then that alone is worthy of enforcing a boundary. Don't worry about the label. Worry about the actions. You can't change other people and how they act toward you but you can damn sure change how you react to them.

Are you a "gaslighter"?
Most people who subconsciously or passively participate in "gaslighting" behavior are really engaging in the trauma response. (a trauma response is a defensive reaction/mechanism that can manifest in a variety of ways from self harm to the projection of emotional abuse toward others as an example for the purpose of this description) It's not an excuse for poor behavior of course, but an explanation as to what it is, how to identify it, understanding how damaging it is to relationships, and doing better by engaging in a proactive healing journey of self. So if you're gaslighting people, it's important t...

Moving through estrangement.
We've all been there. We have a fight and now they won't talk to us.

Today's episode discusses the underpinnings of what happens in these situations, how to define the actual problem and how to elevate, learn and grow into a better version of ourselves as a result of it. It may not bring back that person into your life but it will definitely help you to better isolate the...

Are you celebrating your accomplishments?
Do you mute your achievements with the expectation that you must seek external validation for your achievements from others? You can and SHOULD properly brag and pat yourself on the back when you achieve a goal. Internal validation is the only kind that truly matters. It's all about loving yourself and treating yourself the way you deserve to be treated.

Do you live in a state of fear?
What are you afraid of? Do you find yourself responding in dysfunctional ways to people and situations that trigger your fear response? It's important to understand why you do that, learning your own triggers, developing a healthier mindset and an awareness of self that provides you with the ability to respond in healthier, functional ways to triggering people and events. You don't have to live in fear. You don't have to be ashamed of your fear either. There is understanding to be had and you're worthy of embarking upon your healing journey.

Radical Acceptance... what is it?
This episode details the benefits of acknowledging the reality of the conditions you're facing. Whether is a lover who abandoned you, a job opportunity given to someone else, the loss of a sentimental item in a housefire, a wrecked car...etc. Radically accepting your conditions isn't the same as approving. You don't have to like your conditions but when you accept them you make room for growth and healing.

Being present: A love story of gratitude
Do you struggle with mindfully being present in your gratitude? It's hard to be grateful when we are constantly living in a mindset of lack. When we adapt to a mindset of gratitude we set ourselves up for a healthy sense of self. Understanding that you're already successful so far is key to peace and living life purposefully and with joy! Have your goal and actualize your dreams but don't forget that where you are now is a past goal actualized!

Stop bullying yourself.
If you wouldn't say it to a loved one, why would you say it to yourself? If it's not appropriate to say to someone else it's not appropriate to say it to yourself. Our internal monologue is one of our biggest bullies. It's time to stand up to your biggest bully. Yourself.
