In this week's episode, I talk with the inspirational Amy Lacey, who founded Cali'flour Foods and believes that eating healthy should taste as good as it makes you feel. Amy is one of the 23.5 million people suffering from an autoimmune disease, and after being diagnosed with lupus in 2010, she realized she needed to change her eating habits. With that in mind, she set out to recreate foods that no longer worked for her, and over recent years what started off as a necessary step in her own health has become her life's work. In this conversation, Amy vulnerably shares her story, and how she believes her past pain and difficult emotions may have contributed to her physical health as an adult, and the work that she has done to create lasting change in her life, and in the lives of others! The amazing feedback she's received from the people whose life and health was positively impacted by eating her products contributed to the immense success that her modest company has grown to become. Keeping her core values of passion, product, people, pay it forward and perseverence, at the forefront of life and business has kept her grounded, centered and focused on what is most important. Amy now helps guide others in launching their food products, as she continues to live a life that is healthy and balanced, both inside and out.

More about Amy: She is a national best-selling author of Cali'flour Kitchen and The Clean Switch. Her Cali'flour products have won numerous awards, have been featured on the Dr. Oz show, in Food & Beverage Magazine, GQ, and OK! magazine and as one of "Whoopi's Favorite Things" on The View. Cali'flour Foods is a two-time Clean Eating magazine award winner.

I Am Unique, But My Problems Are Not Apr 26, 2021

Show notes

To join me in The Journey Forward Method, which starts Thursday April 29th, sign up here.

I vulnerably share with you my journey...not only so you can get to know me a bit more (if you are newer to the podcast…) but so that you can see why I am so passionate about teaching what I teach. I so deeply believe that growth and change is possible, and that we have the ability to push past what holds us back, so we can live a fulfilling life. I have literally broken through my barriers that I believed were stuck in stone, and as it turns out, once I broke through, there was no stopping me. In addition to serendipitous events that were signs from the Universe reminding me that I was on the right path, I learned new habits and new patterns in how I viewed the world, and more importantly, how I viewed myself. In addition to a massive mindset shift and pushing past self-doubt, the practices of mindfulness and meditation gave me the tools and framework to know what to do next in each moment. And this is my journey forward...are you ready to journey forward in your life? Join me!

Engaging in a Post-Covid World Apr 19, 2021

Show notes

A year ago we were in a huge unknown when Covid hit, and now we are in another huge unknown in how to engage in a "post-Covid" world. While we are still in the midst of the pandemic, with many people getting their vaccine, it brings the question of "how do I live my life now that I'm vaccinated?" For many people they are wanting to jump right back into "normal" life - but the reality is, there is no normal life to go back to, and we are in the midst of creating our new normal. In this episode I talk about the ways in which we can consciously and intentionally decide how to move forward, with greater discernment, getting off autopilot and into a more values-driven, aligned way of living our lives. While many may not consider how to live any differently, many people are concerned with new social norms, how to engage around other people, not knowing what is safe or not, and simply how to determine the pace in which they want to be living. At the core of these decisions is knowing your values, drawing boundaries and practicing self-compassion. No one on this planet is immune from these questions, as we are all affected by this process, but not everyone is going to be intentional in how they engage in a post-Covid world...are you?

The Keys to Cultivate a Thriving Relationship with Elizabeth Earnshaw Apr 12, 2021

Show notes

You know that love isn't enough, right? It's a hard and inconvenient truth that love in and of itself is not enough to carry a relationship through the ups and downs and vicissitudes of everyday life. And yet, there is no rule book handed to couples on the onset of a new relationship that will clearly guide them in how to manage micro transgressions, poor or ineffective communication, how to reduce the resentment over time, how to reconnect when feeling disconnected, what to do when old traumas resurface, or how to integrate the changes that naturally occur as we age and grow. Relationships are hard. Period. In fact, I'm surprised that they even work at all since we are a bevy of emotions, conditions and environments that impact our ability to show up for ourselves, let alone for our partners. And yet, there are tools that we can learn. In this week's episode, I talk with Liz Earnshaw, a marriage and family therapist, who is training in Gottman therapy to guide couples in the research-based tools that will create the possibility to thrive in your relationship. It's a fun, insightful and necessary conversation that I think anyone in a relationship needs to listen to.

To learn more about Liz: Elizabeth Earnshaw, LMFT, CGT is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and Certified Gottman Therapist. She is also a mom, wife, friend, daughter, sister and colleague - navigating her own relationships just like everyone else.

In addition to writing about relationships on instagram @lizlistens and contributing to online publications like mindbodygreen, Elizabeth is currently writing a book about interdependent relationships that will be published next year.

Elizabeth maintains a private psychotherapist practice for individuals and couples in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania (A Better Life Therapy), teaches and trains therapy graduate students and postgraduate students, and runs monthly courses "Love Lessons 365" available online. She frequently speaks to classes, podcasts, and other audiences about building healthy relationships.

Episode 109 - Core Beliefs, Primal World Beliefs and Mindset with Dr. John Schinnerer Apr 05, 2021

Show notes

In this episode, I talk with my fiance, Dr. John Schinnerer, host of the podcast The Evolved Caveman, about new research in the field of primal world beliefs, which asks the question "Is the world good or bad?" We delve into deep conversation about core beliefs (which are your beliefs you have about yourself, others, and the world) and these primal world beliefs, and some of the categories that fall under the primal world belief, such as, "do you believe the world to be safe or dangerous?", "full of abundance or scarcity?", and "do you believe the world to be ever-changing or static?" We take these big concepts and make them digestible in applying them in everyday situations and examples both from our own lives, our relationship and what we see with clients. Through this complex and insightful conversation John and I share how awareness is always the first step to change your mindsets or core beliefs that no longer serve you, and why being curious about your beliefs matter.

Never Say Never Mar 29, 2021

Show notes

I'm assuming that anyone listening, one time or another, swore that they would never do something, that they one day ended up doing. Well, I have too. Twice in fact. And in this week's podcast episode I'm going to share my story of what I swore I would never do, twice, and how it came to be that that old narrative no longer applied. It's an interesting moment in our lives when we have the opportunity to question our narratives, and get curious about whose voice it is that we are actually hearing (it's likely someone from when you were younger; in my case, my mom's). And when we can let go of that voice and outdated narrative, then we have the opportunity to truly live intentionally, based on who we are in the here and now, rather than who we thought we were supposed to be. And you know what that equals?? Freedom and authenticity!!!

Happily Even After Divorce with Renee Bauer Mar 22, 2021

Show notes

In this week's podcast episode, I interview Renee Bauer, a divorce lawyer whose practice guides people in how to be happy even after their divorce. This is an informative and yet important conversation on not only the dissolution of a marriage, but in the various ways couples can go about the process. Renee's straight-forward approach is in part due to her personal experience of being twice divorced, and her wealth of knowledge brings insight, a plan and a strategy to help people forge into the next chapter of their lives. She has created an amazing divorce course that walks you through the steps anyone would need to know to give them confidence and clarity, which is so important during an emotional time. If you've been through any stage of divorce, or know someone who has or is currently going through it, you won't want to miss this episode.

Renee's bio: Ms. Renée Bauer is an award-winning divorce attorney, published author, and founder of the family law firm, Bauer Law Group.Renée's insights are sought after by local, national and international media outlets, podcasts, and conferences where she speaks on co-parenting, blended family dynamics, relationships, and the art of reinvention. As an accomplished litigator, she boldly educates and inspires women to reclaim their right to happiness through her online course, the d∙course and podcast, Happy Even After.

Despite being a self-proclaimed introvert, Renée believes doing uncomfortable and hard things is something we all have the capacity to breathe though. Her need to share her message is greater than her fear of speaking in crowds. Stay tuned because being on stage as a Tedx speaker is on her short "to do" list even if she is going to have to take lots of deep breaths for that one. Once private and reserved, Renée has stripped away the photo filters to talk candidly about the shame and guilt most women feel in their lives so they can find their own version of Happy Even After.

We Aren't Going Back to "Normal" - And That's Okay Mar 15, 2021

Show notes

To get more information on the Miraval Women's Retreat: https://joreerose.com/upcoming-retreats/

It's now been officially one year since Covid impacted all our lives; a year ago today was the first official day of remote learning and working from home. On that Monday morning, we all thought it was going to be a break for 2-3 weeks - I don't think we could have comprehended that an entire year would go by in which we were limited in how we lived our lives. On this anniversary, I first want to honor, send compassion and big hugs to those who suffered illness and/or loss in the past year. And I also want to acknowledge that this year has been a great big pause, in which I believe, the Universe called upon to be more mindful and intentional in how we live our lives. While it's really easy to dwell in the pain and discomforts of the past year, in this episode, I invite you to look back and consider what gifts you received? What did you learn about yourself, your strengths, values, needs, ways in which you live your life that perhaps you've been too busy or on autopilot to notice and pay attention to? Additionally, as vaccines roll out and schools are heading back, I also share some tools for re-entry and how to move forward in your life more consciously and intentionally.

Parenting From the Male Perspective with Eli Weinstein Mar 08, 2021

Show notes

In this week's episode, I talk with Eli Weinstein, who is a therapist in New York, and also host of the podcast The Dude Therapist. Eli vulnerably shares how his struggles with bullying and ADHD as a child helped to deepen his own emotional and self-awareness. This "superpower" is the foundation of humanness that he brings to all aspects of his life, especially into his work with clients to create authentic connection, but especially into his parenting of his young daughter. Eli also shares how the family values of compassion and helping others instilled in him growing up, influences the lens through which he moves through the world. The bulk of our conversation centers around parenting from the male perspective on how showing up, being present, and being consistent (though not perfect) can lead to developing greater value and worth in your children.

Eli's bio:

Eli is a LCSW who has worked in a psych hospital, intense outpatient clinic and currently works in a community clinic in Queens. He created ELIvation to fill a need to help those in struggling times and add some extra inspiration and motivation into everyday life.

The Real Meaning of Mindful Communication Mar 01, 2021

Show notes

To join my community and get any upcoming announcements, click here.

Language holds a lot of power, and especially as a therapist, I'm nitpicky on the words that we speak - both aloud to others, as well as the language we speak in our own minds. I know that while it's not always easy, effective communication is possible, and in this episode I'm going to guide you through the tools you can cultivate so you can feel seen, heard and validated, as well as do the same for others. I share both well-known, as well as my own, tangible frameworks that you can practice to make your communication more effective, productive and kind. To me, the crux of mindful communication is to truly speak your truth, unapologetically, and say what's on your heart; often we go into communication to try and get the other person to change or do something, which can often leave us feeling unfulfilled in the exchange. When we are being mindful of our words, our intentions, our body language and our needs, our communication becomes much more clear, clean and concise. It's a practice to learn how to stay present, be curious about the stories we are telling ourselves, as well as how to regulate our emotions and thoughts during conversations, and it's possible.
