233. A Different Approach to Dealing with Anger Jul 22, 2026

Show notes

Do you try to fix or suppress your anger, and feel guilty if you can't? Many of us have been taught to see anger as shameful, unprofessional, or even dangerous. As a result, we bottle it up, push it down, and try to ignore it. The cost of burying anger is emotional exhaustion and disconnection from ourselves.

In this episode, I share a different approach to anger – one that views it not as a liability but as a messenger. I offer three powerful prompts to help you relate to your anger differently, allowing you to rebuild inner trust and reconnect with your authentic self without fear of explosive expression.

230. How Internal Family Systems Explains Your Habits Jul 01, 2026

Show notes

Did you know that you are one human made up of multiple personalities, or parts, that interact internally, much like people interact in the external world? This is what Internal Family Systems (IFS) teaches us. These parts are responsible for the bulk of your habits, so when you understand these parts or personalities better, you have the secret to understanding your habits.

This week, discover how your habits can be explained as thoughts, feelings, and actions that originate from distinct parts of yourself. I'm giving you an overview of IFS, and sharing a practical exercise that will help you notice and name the parts of yourself that contribute to your specific habits.

226. Tiny Experiments for Meaningful Habit Change Jun 03, 2026

Show notes

How can you overcome habits that insidiously take more than they give? In this episode, I explore three common habits that quietly create unnecessary stress: multitasking, shoehorning too much into too little time, and holding too tightly to an original plan even when a better option becomes available. These patterns often feel reasonable in the moment, but they can leave us feeling overwhelmed, rigid, and stuck.

I introduce a simple but powerful tool called a tiny experiment. Rather than trying to overhaul your habits overnight, tiny experiments help you test small, manageable changes that feel safe enough to actually try. Whether you're constantly multitasking, overcommitting your schedule, or struggling to adjust when circumstances change, this approach can help you gather new information and build trust in alternative ways of doing things.
