Grow, Expand and Heal with Michelle Dench Mar 06, 2023

Show notes

There are so many modalities we use to heal our traumas, process our lives and make sense of the current season we are moving through. In this week's podcast episode, I talk with Michelle Dench, who is an intuitive astrologer, and uses her gifts and passion of reading the astrological birth chart along with her insights for healing in relationship and family patterns to guide her clients in healing. She so beautifully explains how our lives our impacted by the seasons - the changes of light and dark - and how when we can come to know ourselves and our relationships more deeply through a deeper understanding of the alignment of the energies from the stars and planets, we can be more attuned with the process of the soul. Michelle shares the impact of the once in a lifetime shifts occurring this month - March 2023 - with the ending of a 248-year cycle of Pluto and the end of a 30-year cycle of Saturn, namely that we are on the precipice of irrevocable change. She even pulls up my chart and gives me a short personal reading, so the listener can begin to see her magic at work. If you are someone who is curious about the ways in which astrological insight can help guide us in growing, healing and expanding in ways we've never done before, then this episode is for you.

10 Ways to Shift Your Lens Feb 27, 2023

I recently did a 10-day challenge in which I shared simple, yet potent and powerful shifts that you can make to create change in your life. The challenge was so good that I wanted to share the 10 shifts here so that more people can begin to journey forward into living aligned, fulfilling and abundant lives. When we think about creating change, it's easy to believe that we need to make big changes producing big results. The problem with that belief system is that we aren't able to implement big change because our expectations are often too high for too much to change at once. Rather, the best way to create the lasting change you seek is to do small, attainable steps that are facing in the direction of what you desire. In this episode, I walk you through 10 different ways that you can look at yourself and your challenges so that you can respond in a new way, allowing you to put yourself on a new trajectory.

You Didn't Do Anything Wrong, with Kristin Urbanus Feb 20, 2023

I love episodes like this where we jump into the deep end of a fantastic conversation. In this episode, I talk with Kristin Urbanus who is a practitioner of spiritual psychology and somatic touch, a life coach along with being a yoga and meditation teacher. We take a deep dive into the nuances of how to regulate our nervous system when we are stuck in patterns that go beyond our cognitive or emotional consciousness. When we can become more aware of the multi-dimensional aspects of our human experience, we can then recognize that there are multiple ways we can rewire our patterns, heal traumas, get through challenges, and feel more whole and complete in our lives. We discuss the value of Internal Family Systems theory in understanding how to integrate the different "parts" of ourselves, how to move into being an observer of our own experience, how to decrease judgment and increase self-compassion, and how to put our present-moment experiences into a greater context to understand why we are reacting the way in which we are. Fundamentally, when we can accept that we didn't do anything wrong, and that nothing is wrong with us, and that we are living a human experience, we can take small steps forward towards our healing and health.

Live in Alignment; How to Feel Good More of the Time Feb 13, 2023

Show notes

To join the next cohort of The Journey Forward Method, starting Feb. 28, click here.

Our body does not lie. When something feels off, it likely is, and yet we often dismiss these cues because we don't want to have to face or deal with, or make a different choice. We get stuck in our heads and how we want things to be and get in habits of ignoring the cues that are available to us. Our ego, or thoughts of what we wanted things to be, prevent us from taking action when we are not in alignment because we tend to believe our thoughts as truth. In this episode, I talk through the ways in which the body does not lie, and how we were wired for their to be physiological cues as indicators when we are in an unsafe (emotionally or physically) situation. This can go back to attachment styles from early childhood, unhealthy yet perpetual relationship dynamics in which we choose connection over safety, and yet over time, we can learn to gain greater agency over our choices and relationships to feel good more of the time. It is your birthright to feel good, and it's only when we are in that good feeling state that we can be creative, feel secure and manifest our desires. If you are someone who gets stuck in the cognitive dissonance of feeling one thing but thinking another, and you've given more power to your thoughts and dismissed the cues in your body, then this episode is for you.

This powerful episode is for anyone who wants to be inspired on how to not be defined by their trauma or addictions and learn that cultivating a healthy - emotionally, mentally and physically - life is possible. I talk with one of my dearest friends, Kristen Fuller, a recovery coach who is passionate about helping people heal their trauma and addictions. Kristin very vulnerably shares her journey of surviving 3 different episodes of sexual abuse and how alcohol became her way to numb and cope with her pain. In December of 2020, her family intervened and confronted her alcoholism, which led her on the path to sobriety and more importantly healing the trauma she's been carrying since she was 6 years old.

Kristin has a Bachelor's in Psychology, and her coaching practice is trauma-informed. She is also in recovery from alcohol dependence, which has contributed to her mission to help women to heal without guilt or shame. She is a mother to two teenagers, an avid hiker, and practices yoga daily.

As a marriage and family therapist and life coach, I tend to see common themes for why people come to work with me: disconnection and dissatisfaction in their relationships, feeling drained and depleted, and the same patterns showing up time and time again. As a result of these challenges it leaves people feeling frustrated, resigned, unhappy, unfulfilled, and ultimately stuck feeling that they aren't able to be happy and live a satisfying life. Getting stuck in a negative mindset will only lead to continued negative outcomes, and it doesn't have to be that way. Many people get stuck however on the "how?" In this episode, I dive deep into what these dynamics can look like along with the solutions for how to gain more agency so that you can have more satisfying and fulfilling relationships, starting with the relationship with yourself. If you are someone who knows that being happier is a possibility and that you want more peace, joy and resilience in your life, then this episode is for you. And here's a teaser - there's one simple practice you can do starting right now to create a shift in your life. I guarantee it!

Growing Through My Most Difficult Season Jan 09, 2023

Show notes

In this episode, Joree vulnerably shares a reflection on the challenges and hardships that she faced at the end of 2022, and how she ultimately learned the biggest and some of the hardest, yet most profound lessons. Learning how to reframe her struggles into questions such as, "how would I respond differently if I knew this was in service of my highest self?" and instead of asking "why is this happening?" ask instead, "what am I here to learn?" was one of the tools that grounded her most when everything was shifting, changing and she felt a loss of control. Having gotten through this difficult season allowed Joree to choose a clear intention for 2023, which is alignment. Often we get stuck in our own way (by holding on to old narratives, patterns or mindsets) and don't realize that we are facing in the opposite direction of our desires, which takes us out of alignment, and therefore into more suffering. If you are someone who has struggled during a challenging time and want inspiration and tools to grow through it, and how to ultimately align with yourself and your intentions, then this episode is for you.

How to Make Sense of What Seems Senseless Dec 19, 2022

Show notes

I was inspired to do this episode because of the recent death of Stephen "tWitch" Boss, and the subsequent widespread devastation and shock. Rippling through everyone's minds was. "How could someone who spreads such light be in a place to take their own life?" Suicide is a very difficult topic to talk about, because it's so difficult to make sense of. And it's so hard to make sense of because we all are not in the shoes of the person who is living in such pain that death feels like the only viable option. Suicide brings so much emotion: confusion, anxiety, fears, concerns, anger, grief, sadness, and more! How do we make sense of something that is senseless? In this episode, I talk about my very personal journey and connection to suicide. My father died by suicide when I was 10 years old, and I share how this shaped my relationship to suicide, mental health, as well as giving tips and tools for how to get through a period of confusion, leaning into the unknown, as well as how to talk about suicide to kids. If you or someone you know is suicidal, please check out the resources below.
