$What\'s Next$ What's NextLaunching Our Parents at the End of Their Lives (And Other Thoughts About Navigating the End and Healing)People often don’t realize how large of a stressor it is to help their parents transition at the end of their lives.

In today’s episode, host Liz Smith is joined in conversation with Karen Salama McCain, the Irish-Egyptian founder of GoHively, which helps implement interventions in healthcare settings, schools, and behavioral health organizations that improve communication and reduce stress.

In Kind31. Bringing Emotional Release for Men Into the Spotlight, with the Mankind ProjectWhere are we in 2021 on definitions of masculinity? Is there any difference between how men and women 'do' emotional release? Today I'm talking with Boysen Hodgson from the Mankind Project, an international men's community. They train men to be vulnerable, self-empathic and self-reflective. They're normalizing the emotionally intelligent man. We cover everything from 80s movies to women's reactions to men who 'overshare.' This is for anyone who has a man in their life - brother, son, father, partner, friend. It's a conversation that's so overdue, and we're having it! Enjoy. SHOW NOTES:Mankind...2021-06-221h 03

In Kind29. Expert Hour, No Bad Parts! IFS founder Dr. Richard Schwartz Shows Us How to Empathically Lead Our Internal Family of SelvesIn this episode you’ll learn that we all have an entire family interacting inside of us!

In Kind28. Three Thoughts: How to Get Better at Being a BeginnerBeing a beginner happens ALL the time, whether you're 5 or 95! Beginnings are things like speaking up at a meeting, asking someone on a date, learning how to use new technology, becoming a parent and grieving the loss of a parent. We experience things with a degree of newness any time we don't feel like an expert - which means most of the time! We may feel 100% confident speaking with our team colleagues, and the opposite asking a question in a painting class. Context matters. Learning to be a beginner while showing empathy for yourself is a life skill extraordinaire. He...2021-02-2323 min

In Kind27. How to Stop Measuring Your Self Worth by Your Productivity, with TessieThis is so common! We've lost touch with our intrinsic value and we look to others to assign value to us. Tessie talks about her own experience of how this fallacy developed, how it can turn into physical illness and depression, and - drum roll... - how the cycle can be broken. She has a few strong tactics to share that anyone can try right now. Wouldn't it be nice to live by your own standards instead of someone else's? There's so much to learn from Tessie.

In Kind26. Three Thoughts: Happy Birthday In Kind!Today I'm celebrating In Kind's first birthday by reflecting on what I've learned about myself and humanity in the last year. I talk about experimenting with another form of letting go, specifically time. I've been experiencing 'time-free' days lately, and it's been insanely liberating! It's hard to express the depth of my gratitude for the guests, experts and listeners who've been bold enough to have meaningful conversations with me. Thank you for your courage, candor, support, feedback and humor. Cheers to global empathy, and to In Kind's evolution in 2021!2021-01-2621 min

In Kind25. Expert Hour, Neurotheologist Dr. Andrew Newberg on the Religion-Brain-Empathy ConnectionNeurotheology? That's not a word you hear often. It's an emerging field that studies what's happening in the brain when people are in deep spiritual practice. We know that the more we use certain neural pathways the stronger they get...but studies using brain imaging show that prayer, meditation, mindfulness, and affirmations can change our wiring. It takes awareness and practice. Dr. Newberg says our conscious selves need to help our unconscious brain to shift - it’s a partnership. He gives us two simple, powerful tactics to start (use the Chapters to jump to them), and advises us to “...2021-01-121h 04

In Kind24. Three Thoughts: I Am Becoming - A Self in ReviewWhat do you do every day that lights you up? What pulls you down? If you're like me, you probably have meager accurate awareness of how you actually spend your hours. Instead of focusing on what we failed to do this year, and making the same promises (aka resolutions) next year, we'll look at who we became over the the last twelve months. They key to that is to decide how each of our daily actions makes us feel, and to do more of the ones that make us feel most alive. However 2020 treated you...2020-12-2923 min

In Kind22. Escaping a Cult at 30 - Learning to Live as a 'Wordly,' with J.‘Worldlies’ is what the cult calls those who live on the outside. Never feeling like she fit in, and unable to express herself, J erased her identity to survive into her 30s. In Part I, we get into her self-talk, how she developed a fear of being the other woman in her relationships and what it took to finally escape. Having no idea how to live apart from the cult, J’s ability to develop her adult self with empathy and compassion is astounding.[Part II drops next Tuesday]Show NotesTo learn...2020-12-1541 min

In Kind21. Three Thoughts: Empathy to Action - It Starts with OurselvesDid you know that empathy is a learnable communication skill? It's not a personality trait - something we either have in spades or are void of. To understand and practice meaningful [actionable] empathy, some fog must be lifted. Definitions, semantics and misperceptions of the word have caused confusion and I clear them up today. With a few foundational pieces in place, you'll soon see that empathy isn't only about feelings. It's a powerful compassion tool that you can wield for yourself and others with a little training and practice [even seasoned empaths need practice, daily]. ...2020-12-0820 min

In Kind20. Living Joyfully On Death Row: Cultivating Self and Other Empathy, with GeorgeWhat would happen if we abandoned the pursuit of happiness, in favor of joy? How are they so different? Artist, author and death row inmate George first came on the show to let go of perfectionism, but we pivoted in the last 60 seconds of our call when he said, "I'm happier now than I've ever been in my life." I asked for elaboration, and received an impassioned essay two weeks in the making titled, The Joy Paradox. In this interview we highlight a few of the aha's, illuminating self and other empathy in new ways. I'm honored t...2020-11-2641 min

In Kind19. Three Thoughts: Self-Talk, Meet EmpathyDo you recognize when you talk to yourself? If I asked you in a crowded room to raise your hand if you believe you are empathic... would you hesitate? This episode is about the relationship between how you talk to yourself and your capacity for empathy [hint: they are mates for life], and how to get better at both. Nobody is born empathic and we certainly aren't taught to speak to ourselves with loving kindness. But these are learnable communication skills just like any other. When you develop a practice to nurture this partnership, the result is astounding inner...2020-11-1024 min

In Kind18. An Out of Body Experience Sparks a Spiritual Journey, with KatePerfect timing for this episode. Kate is a deep thinker and a spiritual light. But this was hard-won. Her paranormal encounter was invalidated, and having her truth dismissed became a theme in her life - one that landed her three months in a psych hospital, death threats from angry blog followers, and ultimately her path to a new life as a spiritual healer. If you've been misunderstood (who hasn't?) there's a lot to learn from Kate. And don't miss the intro to shadow work towards the end - I'll be doing her burning ritual on Halloween night.

In Kind17. Three Thoughts: Comparison & Ways to Fend It OffCalling out comparison today and exposing it for what it is - an energy-stealing force that has no seat at the empathy table. It’s a Harry Potter boggart-style beast that's fond of bursting out and putting us face to face with our greatest fears. On my path to formalize the construct into a book, I thought it would be useful for you to learn along with me. We ALL spar with comparison but there are ways to wrangle it back into the trunk. This is part one of an ongoing series - much to unpack. Join me to le...2020-10-1323 min

In Kind16. The Importance of Validating a Child's Feelings, with MinnieMinnie grew up in what she calls a hostile environment, with narcissistic parents incapable of creating a safe or nurturing home. She spent years longing for her mother to take care of her, instead of the other way around. Along the way she learned many techniques to retain her self-worth and to live a happy life. This episode is intensely painful, and a reminder that we are born with an equal chance to have our basic needs met - safety, shelter, love. When one or more is compromised, it’s an uphill battle to establish peace and positivity. What wi...2020-09-291h 03

Jeremy is a self-described introverted communicator. Although he's built and sold several businesses, he works with major anxiety around public speaking and being a strong communicator even among peers in the entrepreneurial world.

Instead, he found what he calls hidden wisdom - the special offering we all possess - and kept...2020-09-1557 min

Growing up, he promised himself he'd never live apart from his family. But now his children are born in the US and he finds himself between three cultures - but belonging nowhere. We talk about the irony of how being an 'ungrounded' explorer creates belonging and connectedness for him, and how he's found new avenues to create his own community. If you've ever asked yourself the Who Am I question, Noam's journey will spark your thinking in ways you may not have imagined. Show...2020-08-181h 21

From Sex Addicts Anonymous (SAA) to Co-Dependents Anonymous (CoDA) and more, he did a ton of work to define his issues and start reframing his past. He learned how to set healthy relational boundaries and that asking for help makes him stronger - not weaker. This is for anyone st...2020-08-041h 11

In Kind10. Expert Hour, Holistic Healer Kacey DeGuardia Leads Us In a Metta-MeditationHow often do you look yourself in the eyes and really see who you are? For most of us, it’s rarely-to-never. Kacey is an incredibly gifted healing force, and today she’s leading us through a reflective practice called metta-meditation. When the goal is self/other empathy, I can’t think of a better way to practice loving kindness than to actually look in the mirror. It’s intense and yes, a bit uncomfortable, but worth every second. I did the practice in her in-person class, first looking at myself, then seated in front of another class member (that I d...2020-07-2125 min

Letting Go of Guilt Around Not Wanting to Be a Mother, with KarenKaren spent years wondering if her ex husband loved her enough to have kids with her, when a suggestion from her gynecologist turned into a wake-up call - "Time to talk about freezing your eggs" she said. And Karen's first thought was, "The cost of that could get me a bunch of trips to new countries I've never visited!" Truth was, Karen had a different trajectory for her life.
