      <title>Finding Your Inner Peace with Terri Kozlowski</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Have you ever felt like you're running on empty but you just keep going anyway? That was Terri Koslowsky's whole life, until it wasn't. In this episode, Terri opens up about surviving deep childhood trauma and how she turned all that pain into a beautiful, grounded way of living and finding her inner peace. We talk about breathwork, gratitude, letting go of the never ending to-do list, and how forgiveness can set you free. If you are a busy woman running your own business and juggling everything else too, this conversation is going to hit home. Grab your coffee and get ready for a little inner peace.</p>
<p>In this episode:</p>
<ul>
 	<li>Terri shares how her own trauma pushed her to slow down and finally listen to her body instead of pushing through everything.</li>
 	<li>She explains why the egoic mind keeps telling us to do more, be more, and control everything, even when it wears us out.</li>
 	<li>Terri talks about her simple breathwork trick, inhale for five, hold for five, exhale for five, and why it calms your body down fast.</li>
 	<li>She shares her morning journaling ritual and how starting the day with gratitude sets the tone for everything that follows.</li>
 	<li>Terri explains why she stopped forcing herself to follow a strict to-do list and instead does what she feels called to do each day.</li>
 	<li>She talks about the power of reframing painful experiences so you can release them instead of carrying them forever.</li>
 	<li>She shares why forgiveness is really a gift you give yourself, not the other person, and how it helped her heal.</li>
 	<li>Terri explains the difference between living in the past, the future, and the present, and why only the present brings real peace.</li>
 	<li>She reminds us that we are worthy exactly as we are today, and inner peace is always within reach if we slow down enough to find it.</li>

      <title>Retraining Your Nervous System With Sound with Craig Goldberg</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Ever wonder if there's a shortcut to feeling truly rested, one that doesn't take hours you don't have? Denise sits down with Craig Goldberg, a vibroacoustic therapy expert, to talk about how sound and vibration can calm your nervous system fast. Craig shares his own burnout story, breaks down the science behind stress in simple terms, and reveals why just 20 minutes of the right kind of rest can feel like four hours of sleep. If you are running on empty and ready for real relaxation, this episode is for you.</p>
<p>Craig Goldberg is the Co-founder at inHarmony Interactive, Certified Vibroacoustic Therapy Practitioner, Technologist and Relaxation Expert.</p>
<p>In this episode:</p>
<ul>
 	<li>Craig shares that he used to feel completely stressed out and anxious until he discovered a way to truly relax for the first time, and he was hooked right away.</li>
 	<li>He explains that your downtime is just as important as your uptime, and resting well helps you show up stronger for your busy life.</li>
 	<li>He talks about vibroacoustic therapy, which uses sound and vibration to bring your body back into balance, whether you are wired and tense or drained and low.</li>
 	<li>He explains how music helps shift your brain out of a stressed state and into a calm one, kicking off the body's natural rest and recovery process in just minutes.</li>
 	<li>Craig breaks down the difference between survival mode and maintenance mode, and why your body needs plenty of time in maintenance mode to truly heal and recharge.</li>
 	<li>He points out that things like the news and social media can trick your brain into thinking you're under threat, keeping you stuck in stress mode without you even realizing it.</li>
 	<li>He shares a simple stat that will blow your mind: just a short period of true rest can feel like hours of sleep.</li>
 	<li>He reminds listeners that it does not take a lot of time to shift into a restful state, even a few deep breaths or a moment outside can make a difference.</li>
 	<li>Craig leaves listeners with two pieces of wisdom: reach out with your questions, and always give yourself grace, rest, and a little gratitude along the way.</li>

      <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Ever wonder if there's a shortcut to feeling truly rested, one that doesn't take hours you don't have? Denise sits down with Craig Goldberg, a vibroacoustic therapy expert, to talk about how sound and vibration can calm your nervous system fast. Craig shares his own burnout story, breaks down the science behind stress in simple terms, and reveals why just 20 minutes of the right kind of rest can feel like four hours of sleep. If you are running on empty and ready for real relaxation, this episode is for you.</p>
<p>Craig Goldberg is the Co-founder at inHarmony Interactive, Certified Vibroacoustic Therapy Practitioner, Technologist and Relaxation Expert.</p>
<p>In this episode:</p>
<ul>
 	<li>Craig shares that he used to feel completely stressed out and anxious until he discovered a way to truly relax for the first time, and he was hooked right away.</li>
 	<li>He explains that your downtime is just as important as your uptime, and resting well helps you show up stronger for your busy life.</li>
 	<li>He talks about vibroacoustic therapy, which uses sound and vibration to bring your body back into balance, whether you are wired and tense or drained and low.</li>
 	<li>He explains how music helps shift your brain out of a stressed state and into a calm one, kicking off the body's natural rest and recovery process in just minutes.</li>
 	<li>Craig breaks down the difference between survival mode and maintenance mode, and why your body needs plenty of time in maintenance mode to truly heal and recharge.</li>
 	<li>He points out that things like the news and social media can trick your brain into thinking you're under threat, keeping you stuck in stress mode without you even realizing it.</li>
 	<li>He shares a simple stat that will blow your mind: just a short period of true rest can feel like hours of sleep.</li>
 	<li>He reminds listeners that it does not take a lot of time to shift into a restful state, even a few deep breaths or a moment outside can make a difference.</li>
 	<li>Craig leaves listeners with two pieces of wisdom: reach out with your questions, and always give yourself grace, rest, and a little gratitude along the way.</li>

      <title>Why Procrastination Isn&apos;t Your Enemy with Sarah Laverty</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Struggling with procrastination? What if your procrastination isn't your enemy, but a message trying to reach you? In this episode, Denise talks with embodiment coach Sarah Laverty about how listening to it, instead of fighting it, can turn it into a friend.</p>
<p>Sarah Laverty is an embodiment coach based in Northern Ireland. She specialises in helping women to develop unshakeable self trust and confidence by getting out of their heads and into their bodies - and right now she's on a mission to turn procrastination from your worst enemy into your best friend.</p>
<p>In this episode:</p>
<p>Sarah shares that procrastination isn't you being lazy or broken — it's your subconscious trying to send you a message.</p>
<p>She explains that real procrastination is different from just not wanting to do something. It's when part of you wants to move forward and another part is holding you back.</p>
<p>She talks about her own health scare in her mid-20s that forced her to stop overthinking everything and start listening to her body instead.</p>
<p>Sarah breaks down her three &quot;procrastination archetypes&quot; — the Inner Winter, the Inner Protector, and the Inner Rebel — and how each one is trying to help you, not hurt you.</p>
<p>She reminds us that the Inner Rebel isn't bad news. It's the playful part of you that just wants more joy, more fun, and more you in your own life.</p>
<p>Sarah gives simple ways to check in with your body, like noticing if you feel restless, drained, or bored before jumping straight to your to-do list.</p>
<p>She says the fix for restlessness isn't forcing yourself to sit still — sometimes you just need to get up and take a fast walk to shake it loose.</p>
<p>She opens up about her own &quot;aha&quot; moment discovering she had zero clue what she was actually feeling, and how learning to feel her feelings changed everything.</p>
<p>Sarah leaves us with one beautiful line: your procrastination has something to teach you, and if you slow down and listen, you'll find a friend.</p>

      <title>The Truth About Breast Cancer Screening with Lynn Fraley</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>What if everything you have been told about breast health is wrong?</p>
<p>Lynn Fraley, a nurse with a doctoral degree in public health from Berkeley, is pulling back the curtain on the mammogram (breast cancer screening) industry, medical fear tactics, and the breast cancer statistics that nobody is sharing with women. She is giving us the real numbers, the honest conversation, and three action steps you can start using today to feel informed, empowered, and in control of your own body. This is the episode that will change the way you think about your health forever.</p>
<p>Lynn Fraley is Registered Nurse with a Masters in Nursing from UCLA and a doctorate from UC Berkeley’s School of Public Health. She has worked in healthcare for 35 years, and has long been concerned about conventional health monitoring practices and treatment of breast disease.</p>
<p>In this episode:</p>
<ul>
 	<li>Lynn shares why she became passionate about women's breast health — and why she believes women are often brought into the healthcare system under false pretenses that create more fear than facts.</li>
 	<li>She explains the mammogram (breast cancer screening)  controversy that most women never hear about, including how radiation is focused on sensitive breast tissue at the exact moment it is under pressure and inflammation.</li>
 	<li>She talks about the concept of "medical bullying" and why it is okay to slow down, ask questions, and not rush into a scan just because your doctor — or a reminder letter — tells you to.</li>
 	<li>Lynn reveals that the actual breast cancer risk for a woman in her 40s is around 1.5%, and even with certain genetic markers, that number only doubles to about 3% — something most women are never told.</li>
 	<li>She explains her three action steps: get clarity about what the real risks and options are, find your courage because you have already handled hard things in your life, and build confidence that your body has an incredible ability to heal.</li>
 	<li>She shares why she wrote her book <em>Cherish the Girls: A Well-Rounded Approach to Breast Health and Wellness</em> — because she was tired of watching women feel victimized and terrified over something that may be a much lower risk than they have been led to believe.</li>
 	<li>She talks about the powerful role that stress plays in breast health and overall wellness, reminding us that living in a constant state of worry and stress actually works against the body's natural ability to heal itself.</li>
 	<li>Lynn explains that family history of breast cancer is not a life sentence, and that many factors like diet, lifestyle, and even possible misdiagnosis need to be considered before assuming the worst.</li>
 	<li>She leaves listeners with this: have a plan before they do breast cancer screening, take your time, and remember that you are not in an emergency — you have options, and you have the strength to make informed choices for yourself.</li>

      <title>Six Minutes of Reading Does More Than You Think with Stephanie Affinito</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>What if six minutes with a good book could actually calm your nervous system? Spoiler: it can, and the research proves it.</p>
<p>Stephanie Affinito shares with us why reading and writing are two of the most underrated stress relief tools out there. From her &quot;pause pile&quot; strategy to the brain dump method that finally quiets that mental noise at the end of a long day, this episode is packed with simple things you can start doing today.</p>
<p>Stephanie is a book-loving, notebook-hoarding literacy educator on a mission to change lives one book and one notebook at a time. She blogs about the power of leading literate lives and podcasts weekly on books and reading, writing and notebooks and everything in between for both adults and children on her weekly podcasts Get Lit(erate). and KidLit Love.</p>
<p>In this episode;</p>
<ul>
 	<li>Stephanie Affinito shares how her love of books and notebooks started as a little girl — and how they became her lifeline when she got seriously ill as a teenager, proving that reading and writing are way more powerful than we think.</li>
 	<li>She explains that just six minutes of reading is all it takes for your body to start to calm down — heart rate drops, breathing slows, and your muscles finally get the memo to relax.</li>
 	<li>She talks about how 30 minutes of reading gives your nervous system the same feel-good benefits as 30 minutes of yoga — no mat or stretchy pants required!</li>
 	<li>Stephanie shares that reading and writing actually work at a cellular level to reduce chronic stress, anxiety, and even depression — and that readers have been shown to live up to two years longer than non-readers.</li>
 	<li>She explains the three levels of reading benefits — just reading feels good, reading the right books for where you are makes you feel even better, and then taking action on what you read is where the real magic happens.</li>
 	<li>She talks about the "pause pile" — a small stack of feel-good books you keep in your line of sight so when stress hits, you can grab one, read for six minutes, and actually shift how you feel fast.</li>
 	<li>She explains that if you can't wind down at night to read, try a brain dump first — just dump every swirling thought onto paper, and your brain finally gets to exhale.</li>
 	<li>She shares her two-highlighter trick for brain dumps — yellow for things you can control, pink for things you can't — so you can stop spinning and start taking one small action that actually moves the needle.</li>
 	<li>Stephanie's final word of wisdom: give yourself the permission slip to pick up a book or a notebook for just six minutes — it's free at the library, it's always available, and it just might be the most powerful stress tool you haven't tried yet.</li>

      <title>The Hidden Message Behind Your Anxiety with Silvia Araya</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>In this episode, Silvia Araya shares how anxiety and panic attacks can be signals from your body that something needs attention, not something to fear. She offers practical advice for busy women on managing stress, asking for support, listening to their needs, and creating a healthier balance between work, family, and self-care.</p>
<p>Silvia Araya is a clinical trauma professional with over 15 years of experience helping people heal from anxiety and panic attacks through holistic, trauma-informed approaches.</p>
<p>In this episode:</p>
<ul>
 	<li>Silvia shares her personal journey with anxiety and how her own panic attack experiences inspired her to help others heal and feel hopeful again.</li>
 	<li>She explains that a panic attack can feel scary and overwhelming, but it is not dangerous, even when your body feels like something is seriously wrong.</li>
 	<li>She talks about how anxiety often creates a cycle of fear, especially when we mistake an anxiety episode for a medical emergency.</li>
 	<li>Silvia shares that many women experiencing anxiety are also pushing themselves too hard, living in a constant state of stress, pressure, and rushing from one task to the next.</li>
 	<li>She explains that sensitive people can absorb the emotions and energy around them, which can increase feelings of overwhelm, anxiety, and even trigger a panic attack.</li>
 	<li>She talks about how women often carry the weight of work, family, home responsibilities, and leadership roles, making anxiety and stress more common than ever.</li>
 	<li>Silvia shares a simple reminder to pause during the day, take a breath, look outside, and check in with yourself before stress turns into an anxiety spiral or panic attack.</li>
 	<li>She explains the importance of asking for help, speaking up about your needs, and having honest conversations before stress reaches the point of burnout, anxiety, or another panic attack.</li>
 	<li>She talks about building a stronger relationship with yourself by regularly asking, “What do I need right now?” She believes this simple question can help reduce anxiety, bring more peace into your life, and prevent a panic attack before it starts.</li>

      <title>Neuroscience: Rewiring Stress and Burnout with Cameron Allen</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Cameron Allen, a neuroscientist,  shares how stress and burnout can quietly take over your life and explains why nervous system regulation is the key to feeling calmer, clearer, and more connected. In this episode, he talks about simple daily practices that can help busy women lower overwhelm, stop overthinking, and create more peace in their everyday lives.</p>
<p>Cameron is a neuroscientist and technologist with 18 years in translational neuroscience and 11 years of leading transformative groups whose work draws from physiology, functional neuroimaging, and immersive systems. His focus is not on fixing people, but on helping them recognize and shift the subtle survival patterns that shape stress, burnout, self-criticism, and disconnection.</p>
<p>In this episode:</p>
<ul>
 	<li>Cameron shares how neuroscience can help us understand why stress and burnout build up so quickly in busy women.</li>
 	<li>He explains that neuroscience shows how the brain and nervous system work together when we are stuck in survival mode.</li>
 	<li>He talks about how stress stacks over time and can lead to brain fog, overwhelm, exhaustion, and feeling emotionally drained.</li>
 	<li>Cameron shares simple neuroscience-based tools to help calm the body and stop the cycle of overthinking and anxiety.</li>
 	<li>He explains why curiosity and slowing down can help your brain feel safer and more relaxed during stressful moments.</li>
 	<li>He talks about the role neuroscience plays in helping us rewire old stress patterns and create healthier habits.</li>
 	<li>Cameron shares why connection, laughter, and small moments of joy are powerful ways to support nervous system healing.</li>
 	<li>He explains how quick daily practices like meditation, breathwork, and sound baths can help retrain the brain over time through neuroscience.</li>
 	<li>He talks about how neuroscience teaches us that even small changes can help us feel calmer, more focused, and less overwhelmed in everyday life.</li>

      <title>Stop People Pleasing and Start Living Your Life with Amy Schadt</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Amy Schadt shares how women can break free from people pleasing, perfectionism, and the pressure to do it all. She explains simple ways to choose peace, calm stress, and start living life on your own terms.</p>
<p>Amy Schadt is the creator of the Radical Embodiment Method, a coach, dancer, and educator who helps women break free from stress, perfectionism, and self-doubt — and reconnect with confidence, joy, and the freedom to live life on their terms.</p>
<p>In this episode:</p>
<ul>
 	<li>Amy shares how many busy women carry stress like a badge of honor, and how good girl syndrome can make us feel we always have to do more.</li>
 	<li>She talks about choosing peace instead of chaos, and how healing can begin when we stop trying to control everything and release people pleasing habits.</li>
 	<li>She explains why accepting where you are right now can lower stress fast, especially for women juggling business, family, and life.</li>
 	<li>Amy shares how good girl syndrome can keep women stuck in people pleasing, perfectionism, and saying yes when they mean no.</li>
 	<li>She talks about simple journaling prompts like “Who am I without all these roles?” to help reconnect with yourself and break old people pleasing patterns.</li>
 	<li>She explains how staying in the present moment can calm your nervous system and stop the spiral of worry about tomorrow.</li>
 	<li>Amy shares why good girl syndrome often starts from old messages about being the perfect wife, mom, or worker, and how letting go of people pleasing helps break that cycle.</li>
 	<li>She talks about building your capacity to handle stress, solve problems, and stay grounded when life feels messy and full.</li>
 	<li>She explains that good girl syndrome does not define you, and healing starts when you choose yourself, trust yourself, and stop living through people pleasing.</li>

      <title>How to Make Affirmations Work for YOU with Denise Eckert</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Denise Eckert shares how affirmations can help busy women lower stress, calm overwhelm, and shift negative thinking into more supportive thoughts. She explains that simple, believable affirmations can regulate the nervous system, build confidence, and support emotional healing.</p>
<p>Denise also gives easy ways to use affirmations throughout the day and reminds listeners that being kinder to yourself can create more calm, one thought at a time.</p>
<p>Denise is the host of the Calm Your Daily Stress podcast and the creator of the Relax Now mobile app. Passionate about helping busy women lower stress, she shares fun, simple, and powerful tools that bring more calm, balance, and ease into everyday life.</p>
<p>In this episode:</p>
<ul>
 	<li>Denise shares why affirmations are not cheesy at all. She explains they are simple words that can calm your mind, lower stress, regulate your nervous system and support emotional healing when life feels like too much.</li>
 	<li>She talks about how many busy women already use affirmations every day without noticing. She says thoughts like “I can’t do this” or “I’m so behind” are negative affirmations that add more stress.</li>
 	<li>She explains that better words can shift your energy fast. She shares how affirmations can build confidence, steady your mood, and help with emotional healing one small step at a time.</li>
 	<li>Denise shares why stress affects both the mind and body. She explains that when you stay in panic mode too long, your body has a harder time resting, healing, and feeling safe.</li>
 	<li>Denise talks about a time she felt fear during a business promotion. She shares how repeating kind, strong words helped her feel calmer, more focused, and ready to keep going.</li>
 	<li>She explains that affirmations work best when they feel real and believable. Instead of forcing big statements, she suggests gentle ones your mind can actually trust.</li>
 	<li>She shares easy times to use affirmations: before checking your phone, before meetings, while driving, walking, or before bed. Little moments can create big emotional healing.</li>
 	<li>She talks about creating your own affirmations for stress, money worries, confidence, and overwhelm. She reminds you to keep them short, simple, and supportive.</li>
 	<li>Denise shares a morning practice with breathing and affirmations like choosing peace over pressure. She reminds women that kind self-talk can lead to more calm, confidence, and emotional healing.</li>

      <title>Heal Your Trauma Without Reliving the Pain with Kristine Genovese</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Kristine shows us that emotional healing isn’t about fixing what’s “wrong” with you—it’s about finally listening to what your body has been trying to say all along. When stress, overwhelm, and life keep piling up, it’s often stuck energy and unprocessed emotions running the show behind the scenes. Through simple shifts and deeper awareness, emotional healing helps you release what you’ve been carrying, reconnect with yourself, and start feeling like you again—calm, clear, and back in control.</p>
<p>Kristine Genovese helps healthcare and wellness professionals restore their own well-being while transforming how they support others. She created the Soul Intelligence Method, an energy-based approach that releases trauma and addresses root causes without revisiting pain. Through sessions and online emotional healing training, she teaches others to integrate this work into their practices.</p>
<p>Her mission is to improve health on every level and spark a ripple effect that reshapes lives, elevates healthcare, and brings Soul Intelligence into wellness spaces everywhere.</p>
<p>In this episode:</p>
<ul>
 	<li>Kristine shares how losing her corporate job during COVID became a wake-up call to finally follow what truly felt right in her life.</li>
 	<li>Kristine explains that when you slow down and listen to your body, you can start to heal trauma in a real and lasting way.</li>
 	<li>She talks about how stuck energy in the body can build up and lead to stress, burnout, and illness over time.</li>
 	<li>She shares that you don’t have to relive painful moments to heal trauma—it can be gentle, simple, and freeing.</li>
 	<li>She explains that stress, toxic environments, and giving too much to others are big reasons so many women feel overwhelmed.</li>
 	<li>Kristine talks about how to heal trauma by getting to the root cause instead of just managing symptoms on the surface.</li>
 	<li>She shares simple ways to shift your energy fast, like going outside, laughing, or taking a salt bath.</li>
 	<li>She reminds us that taking care of yourself isn’t selfish—it creates a ripple effect that helps everyone around you.</li>

      <title>How to Stop Self-Sabotage and Move Forward with Terry Tateossian</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Terry Tateossian shares her powerful story of burnout, self sabotage, panic attacks, and the wake-up call that pushed her to change her life as a busy midlife woman. She explains how self sabotage can quietly show up in everyday habits and shares simple ways midlife women can recognize it, work through it, and start moving forward.</p>
<p>Terry Tateossian is a serial entrepreneur, wellness expert, and the founder of House of Rose and THOR Retreats.</p>
<p>In this episode:</p>
<ul>
 	<li>Terry shares how in midlife stress, burnout, self sabotage and panic attacks pushed her to a breaking point and even landed her in the hospital twice, giving her a powerful wake-up call that something had to change.</li>
 	<li>She talks about running a business, raising kids, and feeling overwhelmed all the time, which led to poor sleep, emotional eating, and using alcohol just to get through the day.</li>
 	<li>Terry explains how she tried many diets over the years, but the weight kept coming back because the real issue wasn’t just food — it was stress, habits, and self-sabotage.</li>
 	<li>She shares how asking for help changed everything and how learning about nutrition, sleep, movement, and balance slowly helped her rebuild her health.</li>
 	<li>She talks about stepping back and looking honestly at where your stress comes from, including work pressure, relationships, and saying yes when you really want to say no.</li>
 	<li>Terry explains how setting boundaries can protect your energy and help prevent the kind of overwhelm that often leads to self sabotage.</li>
 	<li>She  shares a fun way she started recognizing her patterns by calling them “boogeymen” and even imagining a board meeting with them to understand what was really going on.</li>
 	<li>Terry talks about how many self sabotage habits are actually rooted in fear or old emotional wounds (even in midlife), and how awareness is the first step to changing them.</li>
 	<li>She reminds us that taking care of our health is one of the best investments we can make, and that simple habits like better sleep, movement, and nutrition can make a huge difference.</li>
 	<li>She talked about her Free Micro Calculator - for more info, email her at: Terry (@) houseofrose.com</li>

      <title>Understanding Fibromyalgia and Finding Relief with Tami Stackelhouse</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Tami Stackelhouse explains what fibromyalgia really is and why so many people struggle to get answers about their pain, fatigue, and brain fog. She also shares how stress affects the body and why learning to support your sleep, nervous system, and lifestyle can help you start feeling better.</p>
<p>Tami Stackelhouse is an award-winning author, founder of the International Fibromyalgia Coaching Institute, host of the Fibromyalgia Podcast, and executive producer of the feature documentary, INVISIBLE. Tami teaches fibromyalgia patients how to take back control of their lives and health using her signature Fibromyalgia Wellness Framework℠ — so they can break free from the prison their bodies have become and begin living lives they love.</p>
<p>In this episode:</p>
<ul>
 	<li>Tami shares that her journey with fibromyalgia began after she was diagnosed herself in 2007, and after finally getting help from a health coach, she felt better and decided she wanted to help others feel better too.</li>
 	<li>She explains that fibromyalgia is a chronic pain condition where pain can move around the body, and people often deal with deep fatigue, brain fog, and sleep that never feels truly refreshing.</li>
 	<li>She talks about how confusing diagnosis can be because there is no simple test for fibromyalgia, so doctors often have to rule out many other conditions first.</li>
 	<li>Tami shares that with fibromyalgia, the nervous system can start to treat normal sensations as pain, almost like the body’s “pain volume knob” has been turned way up.</li>
 	<li>She explains that stress can play a big role, both before fibromyalgia develops and after, because the body can get stuck in fight-or-flight mode and stay tense for hours or even days.</li>
 	<li>She talks about how people with fibromyalgia often feel misunderstood since they may look fine on the outside while dealing with serious pain and exhaustion on the inside.</li>
 	<li>Tami shares some hopeful news: it is possible to feel much better, and she even reached remission from fibromyalgia pain by making lifestyle changes and listening closely to her body.</li>
 	<li>She explains that sleep is one of the most important things to work on, and many people with fibromyalgia also have sleep issues like sleep apnea that need proper testing.</li>
 	<li>Tami encourages people to learn as much as they can about their condition, ask questions, build the right support team, and remember that fibromyalgia is real—and feeling better is absolutely possible.</li>
 	<li>Tami talks about her quiz - Fibromyalgia Wellness Style Quiz — a free, science-based quiz that helps you use your strengths to feel better, reduce stress, and live well with fibromyalgia. <a href="https://FibroQuiz.com">https://FibroQuiz.com</a></li>

<ul>
 	<li>Deidre shares how her own burnout and seeing so many overwhelmed clients pushed her to focus on helping women slow down, breathe, and feel human again.</li>

 	<li>Deidre reminds us that tiny changes matter, like protecting sleep, taking short breaks, and making small shifts that actually feel doable.</li>
 	<li>She explains why setting boundaries is so hard and why learning to say no is one of the kindest things you can do for yourself.</li>

      <title>Balance vs. Resilience: What You Really Need with Charlotte Haggie</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>In this episode, Charlotte Haggie busts the myth of “balance” and shows why what busy women really need is resilience. She explains that stress comes from the pressure we put on ourselves—like trying to be the capable one, the perfectionist, or the people pleaser.</p>
<p>As a qualified coach and mum of two, Charlotte is disbanding the myth of ‘balance’ and highlighting the need for resilience for working mums who long to be focused, present and productive as they lead at work and at home.</p>
<p>Through her Ease Over Effort Framework, Charlotte helps women build the mental muscles of resilience so that they do not buckle under the stress of life but have the capacity to hold a heavier ‘load’ with more ease, peace and calm.</p>
<p>Charlotte is the Founder and Host of top 2% globally-ranked podcast The Resilient Working Mum (dedicated to all things stress management and resilient building for working mums) and a sought-after Coach for women working in the corporate world or in their own businesses.</p>
<p>In this episode:</p>
<ul>
 	<li>Charlotte shares that “balance” is a myth, because life isn’t a perfect scale with work on one side and life on the other.</li>
 	<li>She explains that most of us aren’t balancing… we’re walking a tightrope while juggling way too many balls at once.</li>
 	<li>She talks about how the real goal isn’t perfect balance—it’s resilience, so you can handle life with more ease, peace, and calm.</li>
 	<li>Charlotte shares that resilience isn’t about building a hard shield… it’s about staying rooted and flexible, like a strong tree in a storm.</li>
 	<li>She explains that stress is an internal response to an external situation, and it often comes from the story you tell yourself about whether you can handle it.</li>
 	<li>Charlotte talks about “identity-based stress,” like feeling you <em>have</em> to be the capable one, the good girl, the perfectionist, or the people pleaser.</li>
 	<li>She shares that one of the fastest ways to lower stress is rebuilding self-trust—start small (like drinking a glass of water every morning), then stack one new habit at a time.</li>

      <link>https://bleav.com/shows/calm-your-daily-stress-stress-relief-for-the-busy-midlife-woman/episodes/e232-balance-vs-resilience-what-you-really-need-with-charlotte-haggie/</link>
      <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In this episode, Charlotte Haggie busts the myth of “balance” and shows why what busy women really need is resilience. She explains that stress comes from the pressure we put on ourselves—like trying to be the capable one, the perfectionist, or the people pleaser.</p>
<p>As a qualified coach and mum of two, Charlotte is disbanding the myth of ‘balance’ and highlighting the need for resilience for working mums who long to be focused, present and productive as they lead at work and at home.</p>
<p>Through her Ease Over Effort Framework, Charlotte helps women build the mental muscles of resilience so that they do not buckle under the stress of life but have the capacity to hold a heavier ‘load’ with more ease, peace and calm.</p>
<p>Charlotte is the Founder and Host of top 2% globally-ranked podcast The Resilient Working Mum (dedicated to all things stress management and resilient building for working mums) and a sought-after Coach for women working in the corporate world or in their own businesses.</p>
<p>In this episode:</p>
<ul>
 	<li>Charlotte shares that “balance” is a myth, because life isn’t a perfect scale with work on one side and life on the other.</li>
 	<li>She explains that most of us aren’t balancing… we’re walking a tightrope while juggling way too many balls at once.</li>
 	<li>She talks about how the real goal isn’t perfect balance—it’s resilience, so you can handle life with more ease, peace, and calm.</li>
 	<li>Charlotte shares that resilience isn’t about building a hard shield… it’s about staying rooted and flexible, like a strong tree in a storm.</li>
 	<li>She explains that stress is an internal response to an external situation, and it often comes from the story you tell yourself about whether you can handle it.</li>
 	<li>Charlotte talks about “identity-based stress,” like feeling you <em>have</em> to be the capable one, the good girl, the perfectionist, or the people pleaser.</li>
 	<li>She shares that one of the fastest ways to lower stress is rebuilding self-trust—start small (like drinking a glass of water every morning), then stack one new habit at a time.</li>

      <title>What’s Your Anxiety Type? Learn the 3 Types with Noelle McWard Aquino</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>In this episode, Noelle McWard explains the 3 main anxiety types (catastrophizing, control, and distorted beliefs) and shares simple tools to help you feel calmer and more in control.</p>
<p>Noelle McWard Aquino is a therapist in Chicago with more than 30 years experience specializing in the treatment of anxiety disorders. She is the author of the bestselling book, Anxiety Unpacked: Discover Your Type and Recover Your Peace, published in 2025. In addition to her clinical work, she is a speaker, therapist educator, and mother to a young adult child who has lived with anxiety for most of his life.</p>
<p>In this episode:</p>
<ul>
 	<li>Noelle shares how she was drawn to working with anxiety early in her career (even though she didn’t personally struggle with it), and later realized it prepared her to support her own child who lives with anxiety and OCD.</li>
 	<li>She explains anxiety isn’t just “worry” — it shows up in the body too, like a racing heart, tight muscles, short breath, and feeling like you can’t relax or shut your brain off.</li>
 	<li>She talks about how anxiety is actually normal and human — it’s meant to protect us — but it becomes a problem when it shows up constantly even when there’s no real danger.</li>
 	<li>Noelle shares the 3 main “anxiety types” she teaches: catastrophizing, control, and distorted beliefs, and she explains why knowing your type matters so you can treat the real root, not just the symptoms.</li>
 	<li>Noelle explains catastrophizing is when your brain jumps into “what if…” mode and creates worst-case stories — and one helpful practice is asking: “What do I know is true right now?” so you can separate facts from fear.</li>
 	<li>Noelle talks about control anxiety as a deep need for safety, where you try to manage everything by over-preparing and overthinking — but the real goal is building trust that you can handle whatever happens.</li>
 	<li>Noelle shares that distorted beliefs are painful inner stories like “I’m not good enough” or “I’m unlovable,” and healing starts when you practice new actions (like saying no or setting boundaries) and see that you can still be accepted.</li>
 	<li>She talks about how her free quiz <a href="https://noellemcwardaquino.com/anxiety-type-quiz/">click here</a> helps find your anxiety type.</li>

      <title>The Secret Language of Your Dreams: with Lynda Samphire</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Lynda Samphire is a transformational and intuitive dreams guide who helps people reconnect with their natural rhythm and inner intelligence.

<p>In this episode:</p>
<ul>
 	<li>Lynda shares how years of overdoing, people-pleasing, and quiet anxiety pushed her to hit a wall and finally listen to her body</li>
 	<li>She explains dreams / dreamwork as your body’s natural way to clear stress, reset emotions, and guide you back to calm while you sleep</li>
 	<li>She talks about why so many busy women can’t sleep and how an overworked nervous system keeps the brain stuck in “go mode” at night</li>
 	<li>Lynda shares that waking up during the night is actually normal and that sleep doesn’t have to happen all in one block to be healthy</li>
 	<li>She explains how short, intentional naps can boost creativity and clarity instead of leaving you groggy and wiped out</li>
 	<li>Lynda talks about keeping a simple dreams journal and feeling your dreams instead of overthinking what they “mean”</li>
 	<li>She reminds us that your body already knows how to calm down and your dreams are quietly showing you the way back to yourself</li>

      <title>Unlocking Your Laughter Intelligence with Marla Simlett</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Marla Simlett, or as many know her, Marvelous Marla is a speaker, emcee, and registered clinical counsellor who helps people learn and laugh their way to becoming their greatest self.</p>
<p>In this episode:</p>
<ul>
 	<li>Marla explains that she started combining her therapeutic counseling practice with humor because laughter helps open people up, lower resistance, and makes them open to learning and improving.</li>
 	<li>She shares that stress is really tough on our bodies, raising stress hormones and putting us into a fight or flight state where we can't make good decisions.</li>
 	<li>Marla explains that laughter is the quick antidote to stress because it does the <em>exact</em> opposite—it lowers those stress hormones and releases feel-good hormones and endorphins.</li>
 	<li>She talks about how laughter helps you focus your brain on positive things, because what you focus on tends to expand in your life.</li>
 	<li>She suggests three intentional ways to bring laughter into your life: first, make a "laughter checklist" of things that make you laugh; second, find external "go-tos" like a funny friend or comedian for stressful days; and third, intentionally practice bringing up the feeling of laughter inside your own body.</li>
 	<li>Marla explains the practice of Laughter Meditation, which came from Laughter Yoga, where you purposely laugh out loud because your brain can't tell the difference between real and auto-generated laughter—you get the benefits either way.</li>
 	<li>She shares that nervous laughter still gives you all the physical benefits of regular laughter and is actually a learned coping mechanism you use to protect yourself or lighten a situation.</li>
 	<li>Marla's final words of wisdom are to laugh more, suggesting listeners check out her laughter intelligence assessment to find intentional ways to leverage laughter in their lives.</li>
</ul>

      <title>Burnout to Breakthrough: Redefining Success with Isabelle Tremblay</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Isabelle Tremblay spent years looking successful while quietly burning out. After 24 years in high-pressure marketing roles—on top of raising two young kids—she hit a breaking point and walked away from the polished life that was draining her.</p>
<p>In the space that followed, she rebuilt from the inside out. Meditation, mindset work, and a new belief that leadership can come from love reshaped everything. That journey inspired her best-selling book <em>Love, Lead, Succeed</em>, where she shares her story and practical tools for redefining success without losing yourself. Readers walk away with permission to slow down, the courage to reinvent, and a gentler, stronger way to lead.</p>
<p>In this episode:</p>
<ul>
 	<li>Isabelle shares her story of quietly burning out after 24 years in high-pressure marketing roles while raising two kids, which led her to walk away from a life that was draining her.</li>
 	<li>She explains that her journey of rebuilding was inspired by meditation, mindset work, and a new belief that leadership can come from love.</li>
 	<li>She talks about how success shouldn't just be measured by emails sent or corporate profits, but by how aligned you are with your overall purpose and focusing on your mental and physical health.</li>
 	<li>Isabelle explains that burnout can be sneaky, and it’s important to listen to clues in your body and mind, like feeling strong anxiety when trying to focus, or even starting to cry for no reason.</li>
 	<li>She shares some life-changing techniques like meditation, gratitude walks, and positive affirmations to help with day-to-day stress and have a positive impact on mental health.</li>
 	<li>She talks about her morning routine, which includes not looking at her phone for the first hour and starting the day with meditation and a gratitude walk to set a positive tone.</li>
 	<li>Isabelle explains that if you need to take a break, it helps to focus on just <b>one goal</b> for the day to make it easier to get back into the flow and feel fulfilled once you achieve it.</li>
 	<li>Isabelle shares her top techniques for reshaping your future, like using positive affirmations (recorded and played all night) and creating an animated video vision board to create more emotion and raise your vibration.</li>
 	<li>Isabelle explains that it's never too late to reinvent yourself—even at age 47 she reinvented herself by starting a consulting business and writing her book, <em>Love Lead, Succeed</em>.</li>

      <title>Say Goodbye to People Pleasing with Kathleen Conner</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Kathleen Conner spent decades being the woman who had it all together—running a business, raising a family, and saying yes to everyone but herself. At 53, she had a revelation: she was living the “perfect life that was perfectly wrong for her.” Out of that moment of truth, she created The Box-Breaking Method—a transformative framework that helps women break free from the roles and expectations that keep them feeling small, tired, and unseen.</p>
<p>In this episode:</p>
<ul>
 	<li>Kathleen shares how she looked like she “had it all together” while secretly falling apart inside.</li>
 	<li>She explains her big aha moment at 53, when she realized her “perfect life” wasn’t perfect <em>for her.</em></li>
 	<li>Kathleen shares why so many successful women put everyone first (people pleasing) and forget themselves, often without even noticing.</li>
 	<li>She explains how to spot people pleasing by paying attention to that tired, heavy feeling when we say yes too fast.</li>
 	<li>She talks about her own burnout — waking up tired, going to bed tired, and feeling totally drained all the way through.</li>
 	<li>Kathleen shares simple ways to start setting boundaries, like pausing before saying yes and letting “not right now” be enough.</li>
 	<li>Kathleen explains how breaking out of boxes starts with noticing where you feel restricted, then making small, safe changes.</li>
 	<li>She talks about her free discovery call and how she helps women figure out where they are, where they want to go, and how to get there.</li>

      <title>From Burnout to Empowered with Melanie Gray</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Dr. Melanie Gray is a nurse educator, wellness strategist, and creator of the STOP-IT Method, a framework that helps women slow down, set boundaries, and lead with clarity and grace.</p>

<ul>
 	<li>Melanie shares why so many women feel tired all the time and how burnout sneaks into our lives when we try to do everything for everyone.</li>
 	<li>She explains her “STOP IT” method and why scanning your feelings is the first step to getting honest about what needs to change.</li>
 	<li>Melanie talks about telling yourself the truth — no more pretending you're fine when you're running on empty and heading into burnout.</li>
 	<li>She shares how powerful it is to say “no,” and why you don’t need to explain yourself to anybody.</li>
 	<li>She explains that putting yourself first isn’t selfish — it actually teaches people how to treat you better.</li>
 	<li>Melanie talks about the magic of making time for yourself, even if it starts with just a tiny moment in your car or on your lunch break.</li>
 	<li>She shares how women who use her method gain confidence, make bold life changes, and reconnect with joy again.</li>
 	<li>She explains why asking for help is so hard for women and how slowing down your “yes” is a great first step.</li>

 	<li>She shares her favorite healing tools, including sound and light frequency therapies that help the body relax and heal on a cellular level.</li>
 	<li>She explains how calming your nervous system changes everything—from how you parent to how you react when life throws curveballs.</li>

      <title>How to Work With Your Energy, Not Against It with Angela Jean</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Angela Jean teaches the fundamentals of nervous system resets, helping people keep their bodies open so transformation truly sticks. She guides clients to understand emotional energy, because not all energy is the same — and shows them how to redirect negative thought patterns around love, money, and self-worth. Using high-vibe audios combined with intentional movement, she installs empowering patterns in just three-minute micro-sessions that are fun, flexible, and easy to do as often as needed, so anyone can embody this method.</p>
<p>In this episode:</p>
<ul>
 	<li>Angela shares how her work began after experiencing deep personal loss and how that inspired her to study the energy behind negative thought patterns and healing.</li>
 	<li>She explains that not all energy is the same—anger, depression, love, and money each move differently through the body and must be met in their own way.</li>
 	<li>Angela talks about how to meet anger with powerful, intentional breathing instead of trying to “calm it down,” so your body feels seen and understood.</li>
 	<li>She shares how love and money are often tied to childhood beliefs, and how uncovering these “distorted imprints” helps you feel safe holding abundance and connection.</li>
 	<li>Angela explains her rhythmic riddle practice—a mix of music, movement, and mantra—that helps rewire your brain for positivity and confidence in a fun, catchy way.</li>
 	<li>She shares a simple daily body-opening exercise using a broom or stick behind your back to teach your body what “open and safe” feels like. <a href="https://youtube.com/shorts/EXdipCi1GQ4">Click Here </a>to see the quick video</li>
 	<li>Angela reminds us to take responsibility for the energy we bring to the world—because when one woman rises in calm and confidence, we all rise together.</li>

      <title>Feeling Off Lately? Your Hormones Might Be the Missing Link with Ashley Rocha</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Hormone health expert Ashley Rocha founded Ladywell after her own battles with PMS, PMDD, and fertility issues pushed her to find real answers — and what she discovered is that most doctors simply aren't trained well enough to help women navigate their hormones. In this episode, she breaks down how chronic stress silently disrupts everything from your metabolism to your mood, and why so many women are misreading hormonal symptoms as &quot;just stress.&quot; Ashley also shares refreshingly simple daily habits — morning sunlight, protein at every meal, a consistent sleep schedule — that can genuinely move the needle on how you feel.</p>
<p>Ashley Rocha a hormone health expert and founder of Ladywell. Her mission is to make hormone care more accessible and mainstream, empowering women to reclaim control of their well-being.</p>
<p>In this episode:</p>
<ul>

      <title>Why Your Morning Nutrition Might Be Draining You with Tess Cheng</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Tess Cheng is a certified health and wellness coach with over 13 years of experience, passionate about empowering individuals to thrive through all stages of life with sustainable wellness practices. With a background in Clinical Nutrition from NYU and personal experience managing hypoglycemia and a family history of diabetes, Tess knows firsthand the importance of building lasting habits that support energy, resilience, and long-term health.</p>
<p>In this episode:</p>
<ul>
 	<li>Tess shares how our mornings can make or break our energy for the day — and how a few small tweaks can change everything.</li>
 	<li>She explains why water (not coffee!) should be your first sip of the day and how hydration fuels your brain and body.</li>
 	<li>Tess talks about why protein beats sugary cereals every time — and how easy it is to make a breakfast that actually keeps you full.</li>
 	<li>She gives simple ideas for fast, yummy shakes that are packed with protein and flavor — no sugar crash included!</li>
 	<li>Tess shares why reading food labels is key (spoiler: “healthy” cereals might not be so healthy).</li>
 	<li>She chats about her favorite go-to snacks for busy days — think raw nuts, nut butters, and quick bites that travel well.</li>
 	<li>Tess reminds us not to overcomplicate things — start with one small change, keep it doable, and let it build from there.</li>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>Dr. Amy Albright is CEO &amp; Co-Founder of Holon and an Executive Coach. She blends practical science with intuition to guide change. For more than 20 years, she’s helped people transform their lives and businesses to grow or reinvent themselves.</p>
<p>In this episode:</p>
<ul>
 	<li>Dr. Amy shares how being sick as a teen pushed her to discover acupuncture and opened her up to a whole new way of living.</li>
 	<li>She explains how her grandpa’s teachings about creating your own reality shaped her journey into intuition and healing.</li>
 	<li>Dr. Amy talks about why intuition isn’t just for the “woo-woo crowd” but is actually our natural birthright.</li>
 	<li>She shares how tuning into your body—like noticing a gut feeling or that little voice inside—can guide you in everyday choices.</li>
 	<li>Dr. Amy explains how stress overload shuts down intuition and why calming your nervous system gives you more mental power back.</li>
 	<li>She talks about the “Holon Breath Practice,” a simple tool to feel calmer, more connected, and less stressed in just minutes. <a href="https://vimeo.com/1001020753/a9602eb558?share=copy">Click Here</a> for the practice</li>

      <title>Feeling Off? It Might Be Your Nervous System with Stacey Johnson</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Stacey Johnson left her career as a therapist after losing her husband, and that heartbreak became the foundation for her work helping high-achieving women recover from burnout, grief, and life's biggest transitions. In this episode, she gets real about why driven women keep pushing past their limits — and what a dysregulated nervous system is actually trying to tell you through that tight chest and bone-deep exhaustion. From thought dumps to shifting deep-seated beliefs, Stacey makes it clear that asking for help isn't weakness, it's the smartest move you can make.</p>

<ul>
 	<li>Stacey shares how losing her husband led her to leave therapy and start coaching women through burnout and overwhelm.</li>
 	<li>Stacey talks about why high-achieving women put themselves last and believe they have to keep pushing through.</li>

 	<li>Stacey shares easy first steps like a self-care assessment and even just taking a few deep breaths during the day.</li>
 	<li>She talks about how our thoughts can keep us in stress and why shifting beliefs is key to real relief.</li>
 	<li>She explains why guilt kicks in when we slow down and gives tricks like thought dumps to let go of it.</li>
 	<li>Stacey reminds us that asking for help isn’t weakness — even surgeons don’t work alone — and offers her free Breakthrough Kit to get started.</li>

      <title>Unlocking Your Success by Ditching Your Critic with Sue Erhart</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Sue Erhart, a retired corporate executive/leader at a large company and lawyer by training, is the author of &quot;Lose Your Critic for Good”, a step-by-step process for reclaiming your spirit.</p>
<p>Sue is also the creator of Practical Spirituality, a platform where she helps people navigate their personal spiritual journeys to find not only fulfillment but great success too. Drawing from her experiences, Sue shows her followers an easier path, after doing it the hard way.</p>
<p>In this episode:</p>
<ul>
 	<li>Sue shares how her journey from corporate life and law to writing <em>Lose Your Critic for Good</em> helped her find true freedom and joy.</li>
 	<li>Sue explains what that “critic” voice really is — and why it’s <em>not</em> your true self.</li>
 	<li>She talks about the sneaky ways the critic shows up — for instance, making us play small, settle,  feel like we have to people-please all the time.</li>
 	<li>She shares her first big step for breaking free: realizing motivation by criticism doesn’t actually work long-term.</li>
 	<li>Sue explains how logging the good stuff in your day helps retrain your brain (and feels so much better than a to-do list!).</li>
 	<li>She talks about how fear often hides behind the things we avoid — and how to gently coach yourself through it.</li>
 	<li>She shares why she created her free course <a href="https://www.sueerhart.com/offers/W4W262iA/checkout"><em>Living in Alignment</em></a> to help you start this journey at your own pace.</li>
 	<li>Sue encourages us to stay curious, be kind to ourselves, and remember that we’re always learning — no more beating ourselves up!</li>

 	<li>He walks us through the “7 Whys” — a game-changing way to find the root cause behind the urge.</li>
 	<li>He shares how breathwork can calm the craving for alcohol in under 10 minutes — no hangover required.</li>

      <title>Manifesting: Why You Can Only Receive What You Feel Safe to Hold with Kubra Ozguvenc</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Kübra Özgüvenç is a Spiritual Artist and Intuitive Astrologer dedicated to empowering entrepreneurs and business owners by transforming their businesses into soulful rebirth journeys. Using unique techniques channeled from the collective consciousness, Kübra helps individuals navigate their paths with deeper purpose and meaning.</p>
<p>Her superpower lies in channeling art to help people understand and process emotional turmoil, turning challenges into stories of success and fulfillment. Integrating science, human chemistry, spiritual art, and astrology, Kübra creates a holistic 360-degree approach to transformation. Recently, inspired by a divine message, she began gathering like-hearted souls into a vibrant and supportive community.</p>
<p>In this episode:</p>
<ul>
 	<li>Kübra shares how a health scare and fibromyalgia diagnosis led her from science labs to the spiritual world—and how that journey opened the door to manifesting a whole new life.</li>
 	<li>She explains why manifesting isn’t just about thinking happy thoughts—it’s about understanding your body chemistry and nervous system too.</li>
 	<li>Kübra talks about how our nervous system holds onto old emotions like a security blanket, and how releasing those emotions can make manifesting way easier.</li>
 	<li>She shares 3 simple tools to get out of "survival mode" and start manifesting with calm: emotional release, breathwork, and asking yourself how you <em>really</em> feel.</li>
 	<li>She explains how your birth chart is like a personal GPS for manifesting your dreams—it shows your unique gifts, patterns, and even your blocks.</li>
 	<li>Kübra dives into how activating your heart and womb energy helps women manifest more love, money, and visibility in life and business.</li>
 	<li>She talks about using her Unison technique and intuitive art to unlock emotions and power up your manifesting magic—even if you don’t feel “artsy.”</li>

      <title>From Burnout and OCD to a Values-Driven Life with Jamie Gantt</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Jamie Gantt is a coach, speaker, and author who helps ambitious women ditch burnout and redefine success on their own terms. She’s all about honest conversations, real self-care, and building a life that actually feels good.</p>
<p>In this episode:</p>
<ul>
 	<li>Jamie shares how chasing “success” to escape a toxic childhood led her straight into severe burnout and constant exhaustion.</li>
 	<li>She talks about her old “work hard, play hard” lifestyle and how it left her anxious, panicked, and unable to even get out of bed.</li>
 	<li>Jamie explains how hidden signs of burnout, like irritability, OCD habits, and feeling disconnected from your life, can sneak up on you.</li>
 	<li>She opens up about how her OCD symptoms disappeared once she healed from burnout — showing how burnout messes with your mind and body.</li>
 	<li>Jamie dives into how coping mechanisms (like overworking, overdrinking, or perfectionism) are survival tools, not failures — and why compassion matters.</li>
 	<li>She shares why the real first step to healing burnout isn’t another self-care hack — it’s getting real about your true values and realigning your life.</li>
 	<li>Jamie gives powerful advice on how to stop “should-ing” all over yourself by asking: is that inner voice even yours... or someone else's?</li>

      <title>The Secret to Avoiding Burnout: Redefining Yourself with Holly Hughes</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Holly Hughes is a TEDx speaker, intuitive healer, and award-winning author dedicated to helping individuals reclaim their authenticity. After years working in TV production, including on Election and 7th Heaven, Holly transformed her life following her viral essay on sexual harassment—published years before #MeToo.</p>
<p>As a coach, Holly leads the Real, Not Perfect Academy, a transformative program designed to help people heal from the past, break free from limiting cycles, and step into their true selves</p>
<p>She also has a bestselling book, REAL, NOT PERFECT.</p>
<p>In this episode:</p>
<ul>
 	<li>Holly shares how redefining yourself is totally normal—like how you outgrow your favorite toys, we outgrow old roles and versions of ourselves too.</li>
 	<li>She shares that living your life being true to yourself is key in avoiding burnout.</li>
 	<li>She explains how “balance” is overrated and it’s really about finding a rhythm in your life, especially when things feel out of sync and when you are avoiding burnout.</li>
 	<li>Holly talks about tuning into honesty—like <em>really</em> looking at what you want, what you feel, and where you’ve been settling (even if it's uncomfortable).</li>
 	<li>She encourages trying “automatic writing” or asking yourself, “What brought me joy as a kid?” to start reconnecting with YOU again.</li>
 	<li>She reminds us that hobbies don’t need to be monetized—just do what makes you lose track of time (she still dances and paints funky chickens!).</li>
 	<li>Holly explains how perfectionism often comes from trying to control chaos—especially if you grew up with trauma—and how “busy” can be a sneaky hiding place.</li>
 	<li>She shares how self-care isn’t about massages or bubble baths, it’s about doing something that lights you up—even if it’s just pigtails and blasting music in your car.</li>

      <title>Unlocking the Secrets of Living in Your Power with Dr. Sharon Melnick</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Dr. Sharon Melnick is a Harvard Medical School trained Executive Psychologist who coaches executive women and Founders to be in their power and use their power for good. Named by Thinkers50 as one of the Top 50 Coaches in the world, she has also created buzz with her presentations at business conferences around the world including at the White House, the United Nations, and for Women at West Point.</p>
<p>She is the best-selling author of In Your Power (2022), and Success Under Stress.</p>
<p>In this episode:</p>
<ul>
 	<li>Sharon shares how past patterns from childhood can sneak into our work life and relationships — and how becoming aware of them is the first step to breaking free.</li>
 	<li>She explains that stress isn’t always about <em>too much to do</em> — sometimes it’s emotional overload from old reactions getting triggered.</li>
 	<li>Sharon talks about the power of <em>taking your power back</em> by focusing on what you <em>can</em> control — not what’s spinning out in the world.</li>
 	<li>She teaches how to create a “power phrase” like <em>Turned On Millionaire</em> to get centered and show up as the woman your business needs.</li>
 	<li>She shares the three must-haves to feel in your power: agency, sovereignty, and efficacy — so you feel strong, steady, and heard.</li>
 	<li>She talks about how to <em>move</em> intense emotions through the body — using tapping, breathwork, sprinting, or even a community rage dance break (yes, ma’am!).</li>
 	<li>Sharon reminds us that stress relief isn’t a one-and-done — it’s like emotional hygiene, and we need to do it regularly to stay healthy and whole.</li>

Sharon&apos;s reminder: stress relief isn&apos;t a one-and-done, it&apos;s emotional hygiene you keep up regularly.</itunes:subtitle>

      <title>ADHD is Different for Women and this is Why with Sarah Callaghan</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Sarah Callaghan is a Holistic Counsellor, ADHD educator, and founder of Unmasking Together. As a neurodivergent mother and passionate advocate, she offers counselling and webinars to help neurodivergent adults understand their brains and embrace their strengths.</p>
<p>In this episode:</p>
<ul>
 	<li>Sarah explains how ADHD affects the brain, especially the prefrontal cortex, which acts like the CEO of our minds, managing tasks, emotions, and focus.</li>
 	<li>Sarah shares that ADHD brains don’t produce enough dopamine, and what little they have gets "cleaned up" too soon, making it harder to stay on track—unless there are extra support systems.</li>
 	<li>She talks about how ADHD shows up differently in women—less bouncing off the walls, more racing thoughts, mental overload, and feeling like they have 20 tabs open in their head at all times.</li>
 	<li>Sarah explains that many women with ADHD go undiagnosed because society teaches girls to “be good,” sit still, and not make waves, so they learn to hide their struggles instead of getting help.</li>
 	<li>She discusses how ADHD often hits women hardest after big life changes—marriage, kids, or major responsibilities—when the mental load skyrockets and suddenly everything feels impossible.</li>
 	<li>Sarah gets real about the emotional toll: unmanaged ADHD can lead to anxiety, depression, and burnout because women are expected to juggle everything without support.</li>
 	<li>She shares practical tips, like being mindful of how you “spend” your dopamine, blocking out time for tasks, and creating systems that work with your brain instead of against it.</li>

      <title>Exercise Snacks: The Secret to Managing Stress with Tara De Leon</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Tara De Leon is a personal trainer, professor of Health, Fitness and Exercise Studies, podcaster, speaker, and author.</p>
<p>Tara is the author of Hot Mess to Hot Mom: Transformational Tools for Thriving After Childbirth and Beyond and is the host of the Wellness Rebranded Podcast</p>
<p>In this episode:</p>
<ul>
 	<li>Tara talks about how doing badass things with your body, like swimming across shark-infested waters, can remind you of how strong and capable you already are.</li>
 	<li>She shares easy ways to fit exercise into a busy schedule, like breaking it into five-minute - exercise snack - throughout the day.</li>
 	<li>Tara explains how dancing after dinner or taking a quick walk  - an exercise snack -  can have the same health benefits as longer workouts, making exercise more doable for entrepreneurs.</li>
 	<li>She breaks down the mental and physical benefits of exercise, from reducing anxiety and depression to improving flexibility, strength, and overall energy.</li>
 	<li>Tara shares a saying: “motion is lotion, rest is rust,” explaining how staying active prevents stiffness, injuries, and that “ugh” feeling after sitting all day and how easy it is to incorporate an exercise snack into your day.</li>
 	<li>Tara talks about changing your attitude toward your body by focusing on what it allows you to do, from holding your child’s hand to lifting weights and feeling like a total rockstar.</li>
 	<li>She explains the benefits of weightlifting, including stronger bones, better hormone balance during perimenopause, and making everyday tasks—like carrying groceries—way easier!</li>

      <title>Breaking Free from Entrepreneurial Stress and Burnout with Shulamit Ber Levtov</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Shulamit Ber Levtov is known as The Entrepreneurs' Therapist. She is a culture change catalyst focusing on mental health in entrepreneurship - speaking, teaching and consulting nationally and internationally, and supporting individual women business owners through the emotional challenges of running a business.</p>
<p>Shulamit's unique approach combines her 30+ years of entrepreneurship and 24+ years as a mental health professional. She is a masters-level, licensed somatic trauma therapist and a trauma survivor herself. She also has certifications in the Trauma of Money and Financial Social Work.</p>
<p>In this episode:</p>
<ul>
 	<li>Shulamit shares her personal journey of burnout, realizing she needed to exit her business to prioritize her mental health, which led her to support other entrepreneurs.</li>
 	<li>She explains that cash flow is the number one stressor for entrepreneurs, triggering a survival response in the nervous system, making it harder to think clearly and solve business challenges.</li>
 	<li>Shulamit talks about the hidden isolation of entrepreneurship—many business owners fear being vulnerable due to stigma and worry that admitting stress will harm their reputation.</li>
 	<li>She shares tips on finding emotional support, from noticing who offers kindness in your circle to forming a “biz bestie” relationship for mutual encouragement.</li>
 	<li>She introduces the concept of “slow business” and encourages women to seek out communities that align with their values instead of hustle culture.</li>
 	<li>Shulamit explains how financial stress is deeply tied to self-worth and safety under capitalism, and how recognizing this can help entrepreneurs shift their mindset.</li>
 	<li>She offers a first step to handling financial stress: acknowledge your nervous system response, show yourself compassion, and stop blaming yourself for feeling overwhelmed.</li>
 	<li>She shares that she has a free newsletter where she discusses all things mental health as entrepreneurs - sign up here:  <a href="https://www.shula.ca/newsletter">https://www.shula.ca/newsletter</a></li>

      <title>Stop Overworking and Start Thriving with Human Design with Kristi Sullivan</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Kristi H. Sullivan is a Human Design and Self Care expert, speaker and lead author of the best-selling Amazon book Stop Overworking &amp; Start Overflowing: 25 Ways to Transform Your Life Using Human Design. She hosts a virtual community for spiritually-minded females to create better wellness, improve relationships, shift mindsets, and manifest more success, wealth and freedom - to live their best life by design.</p>
<p>In this episode:</p>
<ul>
 	<li>Kristi shares how discovering human design was a lightbulb moment, just like when she first tried yoga—it completely changed how she saw herself and her energy.</li>
 	<li>She explains that human design is like "astrology on steroids," helping you understand how your energy naturally flows so you can stop forcing yourself into a life that doesn’t fit.</li>
 	<li>Kristi talks about the five energy types and how knowing yours can help you work smarter, not harder—especially if you’ve been feeling drained or burned out.</li>
 	<li>She reveals that for instance,  Manifestors, make up only 9% of the population and are designed to start things, not grind away at repetitive tasks (which explains why certain jobs just don’t feel right!).</li>
 	<li>Kristi shares how burnout happens when we try to work in ways that don’t align with our energy type—knowing your human design can help you say yes to what fuels you and no to what drains you.</li>
 	<li>She explains the difference between outer self-care (bubble baths and vacations) and inner self-care (rewiring limiting beliefs and recognizing unhealthy patterns).</li>
 	<li>Kristi invites listeners to grab their free human design chart and start exploring how they can align their energy for more ease, flow, and success in their life and business. Go to her website: <a href="https://hdwithkristi.com/">https://hdwithkristi.com/</a></li>

      <title>Relieving Stress and Pain with the Power of Touch with Dr. Njideka Olatunde</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Dr. Njideka Olatunde is the visionary and creative energy behind Focus On Healing Wellness Institute, Pain Relief Educator, Advocate and Ambassador for pain caregivers and people with chronic pain.</p>
<p>In this episode:</p>
<ul>
 	<li>Njideka shares how her journey into pain relief started with the opioid crisis, inspiring her to explore natural healing through touch.</li>
 	<li>She explains how touch activates the body's natural pain relievers—like when you instinctively grab your elbow after hitting it.</li>
 	<li>Njideka talks about the deep connection between stress and pain, explaining how unaddressed stress can manifest as chronic pain.</li>
 	<li>She reveals why she listens closely to clients first—pain is often just the symptom, but stress is the real culprit.</li>
 	<li>Njideka introduces "touchology," a hands-on approach to healing that includes reflexology, breathwork, acupuncture, and more.</li>
 	<li>She compares body care to car maintenance—your body needs regular physical and mental checkups to stay strong and pain-free.</li>
 	<li>Njideka shares a simple self-care tip: massage the palm of your hand with your thumb while deep breathing to relax and relieve stress instantly.</li>
 	<li>She invites you to download her poster - <a href="https://touchologyreflexology.com">https://touchologyreflexology.com</a></li>

      <title>Align Your Life: The Secret to Happiness with Jennifer Kenney-Smith</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Jennifer Kenney-Smith is Certified Yoga Teacher, Ayurvedic practitioner and a Life coach. She helps women who feel unfulfilled ignite their fire, reconnect to their power &amp; embody their greatness.</p>
<p>In this episode:</p>
<ul>
 	<li>Jennifer explains that alignment is all about listening to your body’s “hell yes” or “hell no.” When we ignore what feels good, stress and misalignment show up as overwhelm, exhaustion, and even physical illness.</li>
 	<li>She talks about how stress literally stays in the body—Ayurveda calls it "Ama," or undigested emotions. When we don’t process stress, it leads to inflammation, which is the root of most diseases.</li>
 	<li>Jennifer shares that true alignment isn’t about pushing or doing more—it’s actually about slowing down, being still, and reconnecting with yourself instead of chasing validation outside of you.</li>
 	<li>She explains that simple practices like taking a walk in nature, journaling, or just looking at yourself in the mirror with kindness can help you reconnect and start creating a happier life.</li>
 	<li>Jennifer shares how sleep is a huge key to alignment. It’s not just about getting hours in, but creating a ritual—eating earlier, turning off screens, and letting your body fully rest and detox overnight.</li>
 	<li>She talks about starting the day with purpose—breathwork, movement, meditation, and even just stepping outside for sunlight can shift your entire energy for the day.</li>
 	<li>She encourages checking in with yourself daily. Ask: “How do I feel?” and “What do I need?”—then actually honor the answer, whether it’s water, movement, or simply a break.</li>
 	<li>She offers a free daily checklist - just go to her website:  <a href="https://www.jksyoga.com/">Click Here</a></li>

      <title>PROVEN Strategies to STOP Negative Emotions with Yvonne Caputo</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Yvonne Caputo has been a teacher. She taught in the Erie Pennsylvania Public Schools for 18 years. She has also been the Vice President of Human Resources at a retirement community, a corporate trainer and consultant, and a psychotherapist. She has a master’s degree in education and clinical psychology.</p>
<p>Her book, Flying with Dad, is a story about her relationship with her father through his telling of World War II stories. Her second book, Dying with Dad shares how she and her dad had tough conversations about what he wanted in the end.</p>
<p>She has always been a storyteller. She has used stories to widen students’ eyes and soften clients’ pain, and her stories have earned her rave reviews as a presenter and speaker.</p>
<p>Yvonne lives in Pennsylvania with her best friend (who is also her husband). Together they have three children, three grandchildren, and a bernedooodle.</p>
<p>In this episode:</p>
<ul>
 	<li>Yvonne explains how understanding emotions, especially negative ones like anger and frustration, can be transformative by treating them as an internal "stop sign."</li>
 	<li>She shares the importance of naming emotions and walking through them step-by-step to align reactions with values and avoid impulsive responses.</li>
 	<li>Yvonne dives into the science of emotions, describing how the brain’s amygdala processes feelings and helps us respond to stress in healthy ways.</li>
 	<li>She talks about using personal experiences, like dealing with her father’s PTSD, to foster deeper relationships and understanding through storytelling.</li>
 	<li>Yvonne highlights her two books, <em>Flying with Dad</em> and <em>Dying with Dad,</em> as journeys of healing, connection, and advocating for open conversations about end-of-life planning.</li>
 	<li>Yvonne encourages listeners to see negative emotions as helpful guides, offering insights and opportunities for personal growth.</li>

      <title>Are You a SLAVE to Your Smartphone? Learn to Take Back Control with MJ Murray Vachon</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>MJ Murray Vachon is an LCSW and business owner with more than 48,000 hours of therapy sessions and 31 years of teaching her Mental Wellness program, Inner Challenge in schools, community groups and Notre Dame Football.</p>
<p>In this episode:</p>
<ul>
 	<li>MJ shares how cell phones can increase stress and anxiety by overloading our brains with too much “feel-good” dopamine, similar to a sugar rush, leaving us feeling drained.</li>
 	<li>MJ explains how overusing phones can mess with our natural ability to enjoy simpler pleasures, like a walk or time with friends, because we’re so used to the constant stimulation.</li>
 	<li>She talks about a client who dramatically improved her mood and sleep just by reducing her phone time — proof that small changes make a big difference!</li>
 	<li>MJ introduces the “ACCT” method for reducing phone use: Awareness, Creating phone-free zones, Curating what we look at, and Taking phones out of the bedroom.</li>
 	<li>MJ recommends setting times when the phone is totally off-limits, like during family dinners or evening wind-downs.</li>
 	<li>She encourages being mindful of what we consume on our phones — asking, “Is this life-giving or life-sucking?”</li>
 	<li>She suggests using a traditional alarm clock so your phone doesn’t tempt you during the night; this can help avoid sleepless scrolling and improve rest.</li>
 	<li>She mentioned going into the science of cell phones on a deeper level on her podcast – you can listen to it here: <a href="https://tinyurl.com/MJMVCalm">https://tinyurl.com/MJMVCalm</a></li>

      <title>The Transformative Power of Equus Coaching with Sue Willoughby</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Sue Willoughby, founder of Willoughby Coaching, where she helps women over 40 break through personal barriers using the transformative power of Equus Coaching. Through deep, non-verbal connections with horses, Sue helps clients gain insight into their communication and leadership styles.</p>
<p>Raised by a single alcoholic parent, Sue learned resilience early, came out at 17, and overcame dark times to build a successful career. With a lifelong love of horses, she’s crafted a coaching approach that inspires bold, authentic living. From being a DJ and standup comic to a private pilot, Sue embodies fearless living and is here to inspire you to do the same.</p>
<p>In this episode:</p>
<ul>
 	<li>Sue shares how working with horses helps women understand their true selves by mirroring their behavior, revealing where they're out of sync.</li>
 	<li>She explains how fear often feels like a huge brick wall, but once you start, it’s more like a speed bump.</li>
 	<li>Sue talks about the importance of embracing discomfort and taking small steps outside your comfort zone.</li>
 	<li>She encourages women to do an inventory of their amazing life skills and appreciate all they've accomplished.</li>
 	<li>Sue advises getting out of your head and into your body, using breath and grounding to manage thoughts before they turn into stress.</li>
 	<li>Sue reveals that horses act as lie detectors in her coaching, helping women see when they’re not being authentic.</li>
 	<li>Sue suggests taking a pause before reacting, allowing you to process emotions and avoid stress spirals.</li>
 	<li>Sue discusses her free 5 part email series – Midlife Makeofer : a 5-day challenge to ditch the “crisis” and reclaim your life. <a href="https://willoughby-coaching.myflodesk.com/5daychallenge">Click here for access </a></li>

You&apos;ll learn why getting out of your head and into your body helps you manage thoughts before they spiral into stress, plus how pausing before reacting gives you space to process emotions instead of reacting from them.</itunes:summary>

      <title>Reclaim Your Life with Psychedelic Therapy with Jillian Acosta</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Jillian Acosta is a registered dietitian specializing in functional medicine and the psychology of eating. She owns The Root Cause Method, a nutrition practice where she helps clients achieve health through unconventional methods. Jillian believes many chronic illnesses, often worsened by excess weight, stem from trauma. She collaborates with physicians who use psychedelics to help clients change their relationship with food, emotions, and self. Her goal is to address the factors shaping our relationship with food to prevent and reverse chronic illnesses, leading to true fulfillment and connection.</p>
<ul>
 	<li>Jillian shares how her personal battle with emotional eating started as young as 3 years old, leading her to become a dietitian and explore deeper healing methods.</li>
 	<li>She explains how psychedelics therapy, like ketamine, help people rewire their brains, release trauma, and develop compassion for themselves.</li>
 	<li>Jillian talks about how the brain’s “default mode network” keeps us stuck in self-critical thinking and how psychedelic therapy  allows it to go “offline” for healing to happen.</li>
 	<li>She describes her program, “The Garden,” where she helps women uproot emotional “weeds” planted by trauma using gentle psychedelic therapy.</li>
 	<li>Jillian talks about how nurturing self-compassion daily can transform self-judgment and bring real change to people’s lives.</li>
 	<li>Jillian explains that trauma, big or small, can influence our self-worth and behaviors, but healing is possible when we confront it.</li>

      <title>Unveiling The Truth: Stress and Autoimmune Diseases with Xenia Brandstetter</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>In her previous life, Xenia used to work in Finance until she fell ill in her mid-20s with multiple autoimmune diseases. She couldn't keep up with her job and her life, was bedridden for a while, and eventually decided to quit her job while focusing only on her recovery. During that time, she overshot and became obsessed with living a healthy lifestyle, struggling with depression and unable to handle the stress of it anymore. She was eventually able to turn it around and find balance, which is when true healing finally happened.</p>
<p>She is now symptom-free and started coaching because she wants to support others who are going through the same thing &amp; share her knowledge.</p>
<p>In this episode:</p>
<ul>
 	<li>Xenia explains how stress played a major role in her autoimmune diseases and how she didn't initially recognize the connection.</li>
 	<li>Xenia talks about feeling isolated and the stigma around asking for help, which prolonged her journey to recovery.</li>
 	<li>She describes her path to becoming a health coach to help others and how it changed her perspective on career and work-life balance.</li>
 	<li>She discusses the importance of recognizing stress and developing healthy ways to manage it, including keeping a stress journal and practicing mindfulness.</li>
 	<li>Xenia shares that stress can be physical, emotional, or mental and emphasizes the need to create a buffer between stressors and our responses.</li>
 	<li>She highlights common symptoms of autoimmune diseases, such as extreme fatigue and digestive issues, and encourages listeners to seek help if they experience these.</li>
 	<li>She offers a free roadmap where she shares her journey and framework that you can use to find out what’s next for you – download it from her website here: <a href="https://www.xeniabrandstetter.com/">https://www.xeniabrandstetter.com/</a></li>

      <title>3 Short Tips for a Bad Stressful Day with Nellah Mx</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Nellah Mx is a psychologist with ten years of experience in stressful environments (corrections, crisis intervention), a coach with focus on spirituality, and a writer.</p>
<p>In this episode:</p>
<ul>
 	<li>Nellah shares her personal journey of dealing with stress and anxiety, stemming from her childhood stutter. She discusses how spiritual work and therapy didn't stop her stuttering, but helped her transform her life.</li>
 	<li>The first quick tip to handle stress that Nellah recommends is the clenching exercise. This physical method involves clenching and releasing various muscle groups in your body. It serves as an excellent way to release tension and energy, making you feel more relaxed.</li>
 	<li>Nellah’s second tip is a focused listening exercise to help with feelings of overwhelm. By homing in on specific sounds around you, then quickly shifting your focus between them, you can help your mind regain clarity and organization.</li>
 	<li>She shares a final tip which is a mindfulness practice to ground yourself in the present moment. By simply paying attention to your body — feeling your feet on the ground, your fingers in the air, and your head towards the sky — you can cultivate a deep appreciation for life.</li>
 	<li>She also shares tips for busy individuals who feel like they don't have time to practice these methods. She suggests turning everyday activities, like showering or washing your hands, into moments of mindfulness by focusing fully on the sensation of the water and soap.</li>
 	<li>Nellah explains how self-discovery is an amazing, life-long journey that brings so much richness and depth to your life. Knowing who you are is crucial in everything you do.</li>

      <title>Extending Your Fertility Window using Egg Freezing with Vanessa Hunt</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Vanessa Hunt is a coaching consultant specializing in a beyond-nutrition approach to assist and empower women to plan their egg-freezing journey creatively. Everyone's path is truly unique.</p>
<p>She realized that women needed a beyond-nutrition approach to egg freezing when she interviewed fertility clinics in the US, Greece, Bulgaria, and the Czech Republic. She saw that many of these clinics cater to women who are going through IVF, which is an entirely different stage in a woman’s reproductive journey, and were approaching egg-freezing patients with the same attitude as with the patients experiencing infertility.</p>
<p>Recognizing that these are two completely different groups of women on two completely different timelines, Vanessa began to train to become a coach to assist and support women with NLP (neurolinguistic programming) and EFT (emotional freedom techniques).</p>
<p>She now supports and assists women by offering customized coaching and consulting to those interested in beginning to approach egg-freezing as a solution to their family planning.</p>
<p>In this interview:</p>
<ul>
 	<li>She discusses the importance of having an egg freezing option in your family planning timeline.</li>
 	<li>She shares her experience with using a local clinic versus abroad.</li>
 	<li>She talks about the various fees associated with egg freezing and what to do if financial resources are low.</li>
 	<li>Vanessa shares the first step in taking an egg freezing journey – hormonal testing.</li>
 	<li>She discusses how someone who is starting a new relationship can embrace the start of the egg freezing dialogue early in the relationship.</li>
 	<li>She discusses the option and freedom it gives women for family planning.</li>
</ul>
An easy guide called Egg Freezing 101 is available at <a href="https://www.vanessaemily.com/f/egg-freezing-guide">https://www.vanessaemily.com/f/egg-freezing-guide</a> to help women look at and identify some of the untold influential factors that may influence a woman’s decision to freeze her eggs.

<ul>
 	<li>She shares her burnout experience and how she lost her identity and what she did to overcome her uncertainty.</li>
 	<li>Jenny explains the importance on pausing and stopping to take a look at what you are really feeling rather than being on auto pilot. Taking a look at what your needs are.</li>
 	<li>She discusses the importance of self care and fitting it into your life by coming up with a plan to lower your stress.</li>
 	<li>She shares a special technique that you can use anywhere, anytime you need to lower your stress.</li>
 	<li>When you are feeling stressed, Jenny recommends to just stop and ask yourself what do you need right now – and pausing long enough to give yourself the time to answer this question.</li>
</ul>
Download the "7 Days to Less Stress" guide and reclaim your joy and peace. You'll receive a customizable tool that you can use to get a snapshot of each area of your life, allowing you to easily prioritize what will have the biggest, quickest impact.

      <title>Achieving the Results You Want with Danielle Amos</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Danielle Amos is a Money Mindset Mentor. She works with women all over the world who know they are made for more.</p>
<p>Danielle has used the programs and tools she coaches to walk the walk, she went from six figures in debt to creating a multi-million dollar brand in just a few short years. Not only has she become a multi-millionaire, she has mentored others to do the same. She is known for showing women how to turn their yearly income into their monthly income and beyond, and not by working harder, by working smarter.</p>
<p>Danielle is one of Bob Proctor’s protégés and is a top Consultant with the Proctor Gallagher Institute. She received her Gold Pin Achievement Award and was a member of Bob’s Millionaire Roundtable and Inner Circle.</p>
<p>In this episode:</p>
<ul>
 	<li>She shares her background and her old programming/beliefs she needed to change in order to see the results she wanted.</li>
 	<li>She discusses how taking responsibility is the first step on making change. Going from victim to taking control and how our past has nothing to do with our future. The key is to take responsibility and reprogram our mind for the results we want.</li>
 	<li>She informs us that abundance is our birthright and money is unlimited in this universe.</li>
 	<li>She explains how it’s not the action or strategy you implement that is important, but it is the energy you are in when you take the action.</li>
 	<li>She discusses how women tend to play small and downplay our achievements and how this blocks us from creating the life we want.</li>

      <title>Stress Is A Complicated Friend with Corbie Mitleid</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Corbie explains that stress can be both good AND bad, depending on where it is and how it's used.</p>
<p>She explains the difference between stress as the shot across the bow and stress as mission creep.</p>
<p>When you cannot avoid stress, she talks about what to do.</p>
<p>She discusses when you look at life as a Tiny House, you concentrate on what means the most for you, clearing your path. When you learn to go with the flow, more opportunities open to you.</p>
<p>She discusses the importance of creating boundaries. A lot of times when we are saying yes to other people, we are saying no to ourselves.</p>
<p>She explains when you make stress a friend, rather than a foe, you learn how to take its lessons to make your life bigger, sweeter and clearer.</p>

      <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Corbie explains that stress can be both good AND bad, depending on where it is and how it's used.</p>
<p>She explains the difference between stress as the shot across the bow and stress as mission creep.</p>
<p>When you cannot avoid stress, she talks about what to do.</p>
<p>She discusses when you look at life as a Tiny House, you concentrate on what means the most for you, clearing your path. When you learn to go with the flow, more opportunities open to you.</p>
<p>She discusses the importance of creating boundaries. A lot of times when we are saying yes to other people, we are saying no to ourselves.</p>
<p>She explains when you make stress a friend, rather than a foe, you learn how to take its lessons to make your life bigger, sweeter and clearer.</p>

      <title>How to Feel Empowered in your Feminine Essence! With Sasha Lipskaia</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>We live in a predominately masculine world – the power, the control, self sufficiency. Our fitness, diets, self care, how we process our feelings, and how we empower ourselves tend to be done in a masculine energy.</p>
<p>A lot of our practices are linear, structured, step by step which are masculine in nature.</p>
<p>Sasha shares with us:</p>
<ul>
 	<li>To become self-fullfilled -  it is helpful to get into our bodies.</li>
 	<li>She shares how feminine practices help us grow, feel and express our feelings.</li>
 	<li>She discusses the benefits of embodied practices and shares an easy to use practice for you to experience.</li>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>Interview with La'Quita Monley who discusses learning to own what success means to you as an individual.</p>
<p>She talks about creating the life you want to live and be fulfilled in and not letting outside entities consciously or subconsciously allow you to pursue things that won’t bring you any fulfillment.</p>
<p>Some of her steps to create your clarity of your success:</p>
<ul>
 	<li>Taking a look at your daily activities</li>
 	<li>Taking some quiet time to help us set and focus and then journaling the emotions that come up.</li>
 	<li>Taking a look at this journal for patterns and start creating an outline for your life so you can start your journey to pursue these things and start to clear out the clutter.</li>
</ul>
<b><em>A word from La'Quita</em></b>
<p>You are the author of your success journey.</p>
<p>When we start to work on ourselves, the tools we have will start to work for us. Everything you need is inside of you; you just need to own it.</p>

      <title>Implementing Relaxation Techniques into Your Life!</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>In this episode, I'm going to share 3 tips on how to integrate relaxation practices into your life to help your reduce stress, overwhelm and create a happier lifestyle.</p>
<p><b>1 - Morning Routine/Practice</b></p>
<p>Before jumping into a busy day, take a few minutes to yourself to create a positive start.</p>
<p>Starting your day with your phone, emails, texts etc.,  can create a negative vibe before your day even starts.</p>
<p>Your morning routine can be a few simple practices, it does not have to be long. For instance, a 10 minute meditation and a quick journal exercise could create that positive vibe to start your day.</p>
<p><b>2 - Chunking things down</b></p>
<p>Take your bigger projects and create bite sized pieces. Once you finish a bite size piece, take some time (yes a break)  to practice a relaxation technique. This will help you rejuvenate, refocus and relax.</p>
<p><b>3 - Take a break</b></p>
<p>If you start feeling stress, overwhelm or burnout - it is your body /mind telling you to slow down. Taking a 15-20 minute break can help you refocus and rejuvenate.</p>
<p><p><strong>You Don't Have to Do This Alone</strong></p><p>There are free tools waiting for you at <a href="https://therelaxationlounge.info/start-here" target="_blank">https://therelaxationlounge.info/start-here</a> &nbsp;to help you create the calm we all deserve, along with a community of women walking right alongside you.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Disclaimer: This podcast is for educational and informational purposes only.

      <title>Embracing Your Natural Intuition In Business with Sensei Victoria Whitfield</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Sensei Victoria Whitfield, the world's first Business Reiki (RAY-key) Master and hostess of the 5-star rated Journeypreneur Podcast on iTunes</p>
<p>Sensei helps empathic entrepreneurs and leaders stay grounded and clear as they navigate the emotional rollercoaster of business development, by using the power of strategic meditation.</p>
<p>In this episode:</p>
<ul>
 	<li>She shares with us how energy is the force and fuel behind all action and optimizing the ability to use that force. When energy work is done, you learn how to influence yourself first then how to influence your body, healing, rest, focus, relaxation and creative flow.</li>
 	<li>She explains how powerful energy work can be for leaders and entrepreneurs because it increases their access to the force behind all actions and optimizes the ability to use that force behind all actions.</li>
 	<li>She explains the difference between traditional reiki / mediation and strategic reiki / meditation. As entrepreneurs, we tend to help others which can be draining and energy work helps us avoid losing energy and burning out.</li>
 	<li>She shares how strategic meditation / reiki is done before doing some sort of action to help declutter our mind, clear our focus and reduce overwhelm.</li>
 	<li>She points out that studies have proven that strategic mediation / reiki can increase productivity and profits.</li>

      <title>Is Your Subconscious Mind Running The Show? with Permelia Parham</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Permelia Parham is a Certified Body Code &amp; Emotion Code Practitioner who has studied emotional energy healing for over 25 years.</p>
<p>The Emotion Code is a technique developed by Dr. Bradley Nelson, and it works by <b>literally getting rid of emotional baggage</b>. Using muscle testing, we quickly identify and release hidden trapped emotions, which are harmful emotional energies from negative past events.</p>
<p>In this interview:</p>
<ul>
 	<li>She shares with us that 90% of our brain function is our subconscious which stores our emotions and memories.</li>
 	<li>She explains the different types of emotions such as inherited, prenatal, absorbed and heart wall.</li>
 	<li>She shares the 3 steps she takes as a practitioner to release 1 - getting approval to access the client's subconscious 2 - Identify the trapped emotions 3 - Releasing the trapped emotion. Once this is done, the client usually feels lighter, calmer and sometimes tired as it is a process.</li>
</ul>
These practices are done to release the negative emotions we have stored in our bodies to help our energy move freely. This work can help physical, emotional and mental pain.

As a child, Rob suffered from both debilitating anxiety and extensive scoliosis issues.  Neither holistic nor conventional medical remedies brought relief.  But when Rob discovered the Hache Protocol for Pain Resolution™ and followed it, his issues were resolved. He now enjoys vibrant and lasting physical and mental health.</p><p>In this podcast/video Rob discusses The Hache protocol, and how microcurrent can create a pain free life.</p><p>The fight-or-flight response (also known as the acute stress response), refers to a physiological reaction that occurs when we are in the presence of something that is mentally or physically terrifying. As in Rob's example of being in the woods with a wolf, your body's response is either to fight or flight. If we live in this response mode, our body cannot heal. </p><p>The backbone of The Hache Protocol for Pain Resolution™ consists of 5 Interactive Elements These are: </p><ol><li>Stress </li><li>Reduction</li><li>Nutrition</li><li>Fitness</li><li>Sleep</li><li>Microcurrent</li></ol><p>For more information please visit Rob's website:</p><p><a href="https://painfreeforlife.com/">https://painfreeforlife.com/</a></p><p><b>The Hache Protocol for Pain Resolution™ </b>has helped thousands of people overcome debilitating pain to live joyful, productive lives again.

      <description><![CDATA[<p><b><em>Long work hours, tight deadlines, a massive to-do list… </em></b></p><p>Seems familiar? It sure does! Success comes at a cost. It takes time and a lot of hard work. However, one cost that you should never be paying is <em>you. </em>Success should never come at a cost of <em>you. </em>When you don’t care for yourself, you end up paying a hefty cost - your health. Overextending yourself can lead to burnout and a host of other issues. </p><p>Self-care doesn’t mean a full weekend holiday. It doesn’t mean that you stop working. It doesn’t mean that you watch movies all night and sleep late. It doesn’t mean that you start snacking mindlessly and end up feeling worse. </p><p>Self care can be as simple as taking a 15 minute break to sit in silence, go for a walk, talk to a friend - it can be simple, quick and easy.</p><p>Self-care is nothing but care <em>for you, by you. </em>No one else can do it but you! Self-care is to take care of your needs and wants and taking steps to fulfil them the best you can. Self-care is anything you do to take care of your physical, emotional and physical health. In other words, self-care is a journey towards making yourself a more balanced person. </p><p>Remember that self-care is <em>not </em>being selfish. Rather, it is the key to living a balanced life.

      <title>E009 - Burnout and Nutrition with Jo Levine</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><b>Burnout (Stress) and Your Health</b></p><p>As a burnout coach helping women create a more balanced and happy lifestyle, I have witnessed a lot of different health issues. Some of the main symptoms of burnout are fatigue, exhaustion, irritability, anxiety, but symptoms such as food allergies, food sensitivities, indigestion, bloating, gas and bathroom issues can be a big part of burnout too.</p><p>Stress is one of the biggest contributors to illness. Burnout can cause fatigue, mood imbalances, skin issues and also things like cravings, addictions, weight gain, digestive issues and more. If left unmanaged, it can also cause deeper issues and trigger more serious health issues. Burnout will lower your immune system making you more prone to contracting other ailments.   </p><p><b>Burnout and Nutrition</b></p><p>When living a life of stress or burnout, we tend to adopt unhealthy eating habits.

      <title>E007 - Overextending Yourself can Lead to Burnout</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>As a coach who works with women in burnout, one of the biggest issues I see is women overextending themselves.</p><p>I love working under stress. I love projects with deadlines, the hustle and bustle of it all.  Busy, busy—which is fine if you do it in strides and just don't live there all the time.</p><p>We really need to take better care of ourselves or our bodies will put us in shutdown. </p><p>When I was living in burnout, the biggest lesson I learnt was—don’t overextend yourself! </p><p>I know; it’s easier said than done.</p><p>Managing your energy and time is so important. </p><p>Okay, Denise, how do I do this?</p><p>When working with women, the first thing I help them with is getting clear on what is important to them. I help them declutter their lives.  </p><p>How to declutter your life:</p><p>Get clear on what is important to you—your values, purpose, and what brings you joy/happiness. Take a look at what you have committed yourself to. Remove things that are not in alignment with you. This usually includes creating boundaries. Boundaries are limits you put into place to protect yourself, your time and energy. Once you start removing things that don't align with you, you may feel lighter and sometimes excited to start doing the things you enjoy.</p><p>Once you have removed things that do not align with you, look at things you can delegate or group commitments together. </p><p>Reality is if you don't take of yourself you become unproductive as you start to become fatigued.  You start making mistakes too.  This is your body telling you that you need a rest.</p><p>Take a break! How many of us ignore this? I know I have!</p><p>If you are doing something physical, switch it up with something tamer. If you are sitting at a desk, switch it up with something more physical.  Take a break and do something simple:  making myself a nice lunch, going outside, calling a friend, yoga, dancing, meditation, music, etc.</p><p>When we start taking care of ourselves, we become more relaxed, aligned, productive and happier and can contribute to the world around us more.</p><p>Think of the areas in your life where you can get help, where you can use support. Think of how much fun it would be to do it with someone else so that the entire burden is not on you.<br /><br /></p>
