    328: Avoiding Conflict Is Costing You More Than You Think—Here’s What to Do Instead with Justin Jones-Fosu May 14, 2025
    Show notes

    Have you ever avoided a hard conversation… or ghosted someone instead of working through the discomfort?

    In today’s raw and inspiring episode, I sit down with the vibrant and truth-speaking Justin Jones-Fosu—keynote speaker, TEDx powerhouse, social entrepreneur, and author of I Respectfully Disagree: How to Have Difficult Conversations in a Divided World.

    Together, we unpack how to move from confrontation to conversation—whether you're navigating family drama at the holidays, challenging dynamics in the workplace, or identity-based tension on social media. Justin shares his signature frameworks like the Circle of Grace and Asymmetric Insight, helping us understand why most of us get triggered and shut down when disagreement shows up—and what to do instead.

    This episode is a must-listen for anyone who wants to disagree without disrespect, set healthy boundaries with compassion, and be brave enough to listen even when it’s hard.


    What you'll get out of this episode…

    • Why we default to avoidance, ghosting, or shutting down—especially with the people we care about most
    • A powerful question that can shift your entire approach to disagreement
    • How to prepare yourself emotionally before a hard conversation even begins
    • What neuroscience and social psychology reveal about why we assume others “just won’t get us”
    • The real difference between boundaries and emotional walls—and how to tell which one you’re building
    • How to navigate conflict with family members without losing your voice (or your peace)
    • A framework for connecting with people you deeply disagree with—without betraying your own values
    • Stories that will challenge your assumptions about what’s possible in healing conversations

    • Why healing others might be the key to finally healing yourself

    326: This Is Why You Feel Stuck (And What to Do When You’re in the Void) May 07, 2025
    Show notes

    What do you do when your old self no longer fits, but the new you hasn’t fully arrived yet? In this heart-centered solocast, I’m taking you deep into what I call the “gap season”—that uncomfortable, messy middle where everything feels unclear and your identity gets shaken up.

    Whether you're navigating a career shift, launching a new vision, or simply feeling off in your current life, this episode will help you honor the void rather than rush through it.

    This is for all my high-achievers, cycle-breakers, and visionaries who are in the in-between and craving clarity, grounding, and realignment. Get ready to feel seen—and leave with new questions to ask yourself in your next chapter!


    What you'll get out of this episode…

    • Why your “stuck” feelings might actually mean you’re exactly where you need to be
    • What it really looks like to hold space for reinvention (without burning out)
    • How small, sensory rituals (like chai!) can anchor you during big life changes
    • The silent danger of “success fatigue” and how to tell if you’re secretly in it
    • What questions you must ask yourself before stepping into your next chapter
    • How to recognize when you’re clinging to old identities that no longer serve you
    • A powerful reframe for making yourself unavailable for energy-draining conversations

    Key Timestamps

    00:00 – What to do when the old you doesn’t fit anymore

    05:55 – The anxiety of reinvention & why you don’t need to have it all figured out

    08:14 – Invitations to brave your own “gap season” and trust the in-between

    10:15 – Talking Limitless Immersion: How Ajit and I are supporting brave souls like you

    18:28 – The uncomfortable truth: Why reinvention requires new ways of thinking

    23:09 – What I’m no longer available for—and why it matters for your next evolution

    25:11 – Your invitation to stop playing small & step into your next era

    322: Can You Fix a Toxic Relationship? Here’s the #1 Sign It’s Time to Walk Away Apr 23, 2025
    Show notes

    Let’s talk about the emotional rollercoaster that is the anxious-avoidant relationship dynamic. You know the type—one moment you’re deeply connected, the next you're spiraling in confusion. Sound familiar?

    In this solo episode, I’m diving into why this frustrating push-pull happens, how it connects to your childhood attachment style, and whether it’s something you can actually fix… or if it’s time to walk away for good.

    We’ll break down the four types of attachment styles, explore how trauma bonding keeps you stuck in cycles of dysfunction, and uncover the exact steps you need to take to rewire your patterns and build the secure love you deserve.

    Whether you’re healing from a toxic relationship or trying to understand your own emotional triggers, this is the must-listen episode for you!


    What you'll get out of this episode…

    • Anxious-avoidant dynamics aren’t about chemistry—they’re about unhealed trauma.
    • Your attachment style forms in childhood and subconsciously shapes your relationships.
    • These dynamics can only shift when both partners commit to inner work.
    • Self-awareness, emotional regulation, and clear communication are non-negotiables.
    • Sometimes, the bravest thing you can do is walk away from a love that isn't safe.
    • You can rewire your attachment style and learn to love from a secure, healed place.

    321: The “Good Girl” Lie That’s Keeping You Stuck (And How to Break Free) with Dr. Shefali Apr 21, 2025
    Show notes

    Hello, Brave Table fam! Oooof, today’s episode is pure medicine for your soul—and honestly, I’ve been dreaming of this sit-down with Dr. Shefali Tsabary for years. You’ve probably heard her on Oprah, or maybe you’ve devoured her best-selling books like A Radical Awakening or The Conscious Parent—but nothing beats what we’re unpacking today.

    We went all the way in on what it means to awaken as a woman, especially if you’ve been playing the “good girl” for too long. We unpack why women—especially those from immigrant, Asian, or traditional backgrounds—feel stuck in roles that shrink them. We talked about breaking the cycle of perfection, what it really means to sit with pain, and how to be a present parent without losing yourself in the process.

    So, if you’ve ever felt torn between being the “good girl” and living your wildest truth, or are in the middle of a reinvention season—this episode is calling your name. Pull up a seat, it’s time to get brave!


    What you'll get out of this episode…

    • The “good girl” archetype is a lie.
    • Pain is not your enemy—it’s the portal to your most awakened self.
    • Conscious parenting isn’t about perfection, it’s about presence.
    • You don’t have to heal before becoming a parent—parenting is the journey of healing.
    • It’s okay if your awakening makes others uncomfortable. Keep rising.
    • Gentle parenting isn’t about coddling—it’s about connection.
    • Let go of legacy expectations (doctor, lawyer, engineer) and step into your soul’s truth.

    319: Breaking the Quiet Asian Stereotype—Loudly with Dr. Lalitaa & Simone Heng Apr 14, 2025
    Show notes

    Whew! This one was juicy. I sat down for my very first ever all-female roundtable with two of my dearest, most brilliant soul sisters—Dr. Lalita and Simone Heng—and let me tell you, we did not hold back. From getting shushed (multiple times) in a Tallinn café to unpacking what it really means to be a brown, bold, and brave woman in today’s world, this episode is the unapologetic, heart-expanding chat you didn’t know you needed.

    We’re getting into everything: growing up the “rainbow sheep” of our families, healing generational wounds, thriving in male-dominated industries, and building deep, aligned female friendships that aren’t just “transactional.” So pull up a seat, pour your matcha (or your wine), and get ready to feel seen, heard, and maybe even a little called out—in the best possible way. 💁🏽‍♀️✨


    What you'll get out of this episode…

    • The real-talk on navigating identity, assimilation, and culture as bold Asian women rewriting the narrative.
    • A powerful breakdown of how to turn jealousy into admiration, and shift from scarcity to abundance in your relationships.
    • Brave, unfiltered conversations about belonging, rejection, and how to build deep, soul-nourishing friendships that go way beyond surface.
    • Insight into why you might still feel unseen in personal growth or spiritual spaces—and how to take up space without apology.
    • The tools to decolonize your identity, reclaim your voice, and show up fully in your brilliance (even if you're the only one in the room doing it).
    • Soulful reminders that you are not alone—and that the world is waiting for the most vibrant, audacious version of you.
