Codependency & Boundaries with Terri Cole Mar 10, 2023

Show notes

Today on the show mental health, self love and boundary expert, Psychotherapist Terri Cole joins us. Terri went from alcohol-abusing teen to a globally recognized teacher, healer and author who has helped thousands to attain and sustain vibrant mental health and become empowered in their relationships.

The happiest, most successful people on the planet all have one thing in common: the ability to create and communicate clear, healthy, concise boundaries. This ability is hands-down, the biggest game-changer when it comes to profound and lasting transformation.

Most of us were never taught how to effectively express our preferences, desires or deal-breakers.

Instead, we deny our own truths, or push our emotions down until we get depressed or so frustrated that we explode, destroying trust and relationships, and STILL not getting our needs met!

If you feel overwhelmed, stressed out, resentful or like, "there must be more!" this episode is for you.

Alcohol-free & Thriving with Elizabeth Gascoigne Mar 03, 2023

Show notes

"I'm worried I'll be so boring without alcohol." This is one of the top concerns people have when they think about reducing their alcohol intake. The thought of being social without the social lubricant is enough to keep people sipping alcohol when they don't really want it.

Today's guest, Elizabeth Gascoigne had a social, on-again/off-again relationship with alcohol. Deep down, she knew alcohol wasn't serving her and it was actively hindering her ability to feel good and thrive. Like many others of her generation, she was officially ‘sober-curious.’

Quickly realizing there was a lack of nightlife options that didn't center around alcohol, she decided to launch a non-alcoholic pop-up bar experience, Absence of Proof, and was amazed when the parties popped off. Now she's expanding into new cities and hosting a variety of alcohol-free events.

Whether you're drinking alcohol, reducing your intake, alcohol-free or sober this episode has something for everyone to sip on!

Hey beauties! In this episode, Erin talks about some past experiences when anxiety showed up while travelling. While it can be super exciting, fun and enriching, travel can also stir up a lot as we move out of our comfort zone and into the unfamiliar. Add in time changes, new foods, travel logistics and in some cases work demands, and it is totally reasonable to experience moments of unease, while on the go. There are several steps you can take, to support the mind-body system and quell the symptoms of anxiety so that it doesn't hold you back from experiencing life.

PRESS PLAY and then go pack your bags! The first Raw Beauty Self Care Retreat is happening this September in Crete, Greece and I have a spot for you.
