    The Badass Counseling Show

    Sven Erlandson, MDiv., Keynote Speaker, 64-week Top10 best-selling author (8 books), Social Media Creator with 3M+ followers (aka “Badass Counseling”).

    Founder of Badass Counseling, NYC, he is single-handedly rewriting an entire industry with his “healing shouldn’t take a long time,” raw and aggressive approach to transformation. He has counseled Special Forces to Hollywood insiders, homeless to Wall Street CEOs, and people in the trades to everyday folks just trying to get by. Always real, always raw, always kind. Former pastor, military, and NCAA Head Coach for Strength.

    His 2x/week podcasts feature no-BS, LIVE counseling sessions and Q&A ‘lightning rounds’ where he takes questions LIVE on three social media platforms, all at one time, rapid-fire. With coarse language and a no-nonsense approach, Sven attacks life’s toughest issues — from massive trauma to cheating, suicide to self-worth, career loss to parenting — always challenging guests to dive deep and emerge transformed.

    Ranked in the Top 10 for Mental Health/Fitness podcasts, tune in for new counseling sessions every Thursday and hear Sven respond to followers’ questions every Sunday. (Content may be explicit.)

    It's Your Inner Voice. Listen! Aug 03, 2023
    Show notes

    Sven does some seriously badass counseling with two women, each struggling to find their inner voice. Rachel is having a crisis of faith. Damaging and sexist messages taught by her parish are blocking her ability to heal from past trauma, including sexual abuse. Sven's deep pastoral knowledge plays an important role in helping Rachel find her free, authentic self. Sven's first guest is Jacqueline, and his heart bleeds "200%" when he learns of her horrible childhood. She felt the responsibility to take care of her mother's emotional needs, but got little or nothing in return. Small wonder she has felt uncomfortable even existing. Listen in to this riveting counseling session, and then check out the Badass Overtime bonus episode to hear the guests' reaction after the show. Explicit content.
