Change is an inevitable part of life, but we have the

wrapped up in one decision.

The Balance of the Working Mom and the Pursuit of Mental Wellness Oct 14, 2020

There are millions of women right now feeling sorely overwhelmed trying to keep a balance as a professional, mom, friend, sibling, etc. Too often, working women in the workplace who are also trying to raise children are wired to think that asking for help when overwhelmed or creating healthy boundaries are weaknesses vs a strength and a need.

The 4-1-1 of LOL Oct 07, 2020

Laughter is the best medicine. With the roles we hold in life
we can sometimes take ourselves too seriously. Whether it's due to
fear of what others think of us or having unrealistic expectations for
ourselves we can withhold joy from our lives without even realizing it.
A key to a higher level of living? Laughter. Learning to choose laughter
instead of judging ourselves for our mistakes. It's the pursuit of being
comfortable doing things that we may consider risky, because, what
would people think of us? Whether it's dancing in our living room in
front of our family or singing in our car with the windows down, it's
the pursuit of simple joys that make us laugh, smile and truly live.

Getting Over Getting Older Oct 01, 2020

Getting older can be tough on our body and our emotions.
How are you doing with the aging process? Whether we're 25 or
65 aging can hit us differently.
But what's crazy significant is how we choose to face how our body
and mind change over time. Being comfortable with who we are and the person we are becoming begins with being rooted in self love. When we love
ourselves, that reflection in the mirror is met with greater appreciation and
value. When society dictates and defines what beauty is and promotes
youth while devaluing age, we can get on a slippery slope of questioning our
own value.
Let's take some time to remind ourselves of our beauty, inside and out, taking time to strengthen our view of the reflection that stares back at us in the mirror.

Treat Yo' Self! Sep 23, 2020

Getting on the train of self care, value and going out of our way to celebrate ourselves and the life we are living.
Does decorating for Halloween make you smile? Do you LOVE your apple cider or the smell of balsam for Christmas? Too often we allow the expectations or rules set by others to hold us back from tapping into the little things in life that evoke joy and goodness in our hearts.
Celebrate. You don't need to come up with some crazy excuse of why you're taking a bubble bath, going for a run, pursuing your masters degree or whatever it is that enhances your life....go for it.
Life is short. Every day is a gift. Repeat that to yourself. Take time to live, really live, enjoy the beauty in fresh air, a sunrise, a good cup of tea or whatever it is that fills your cup. Love yourself and don't just say it, connect it with action.

Free Pass to Freak Out May 11, 2020

Life can be a crazy train. Throw in a pandemic, loss, grief, etc. and our ability to maintain a balanced state of mind can be tough. A great way to maintain realistic expectations of ourselves is by giving ourselves a free pass to freak out.
When we feel overwhelmed, like we're wearing too many hats, or our hearts are aching...remind yourself that it's ok to cry, yell in a pillow or go for a run. We all need a healthy, safe way to release when we're feeling the tug of being overwhelmed.
The message of taking time out to breathe, release and recharge is us loving ourselves as well as sending a clear sign to those around us that we have boundaries and we will at times need personal release.
Check out this week's episode for the reminder that you're awesome!

Won't You Be My Neighbor? May 04, 2020

In a few short weeks my third book will be released. In this week's pod, I share a chapter of my book, Won't You Be My Neighbor?

While in Brasov, Romania, two women exchanged a level of kindness and joy that was life-altering. We didn't speak the same language, but we spoke with our hearts rather than words.
You can find my books, Peace, Love & Goodness: Lessons from the Drug Lady and A Higher Level of Goodness Chick, on Amazon.

Little BIG Wins Apr 27, 2020

When we enter seasons of our life of personal challenge, trauma, or even, as we're currently facing, a pandemic it's learning to give ourselves the ability to celebrate little big wins.
In the midst of a challenging time in life, it's doing what you can with what you have. Avoiding comparison on social media when it deflates you, sending yourself a message that you're not accomplishing what someone else seems to be doing seamlessly. Instead, it's connecting with others who will remind you that you are awesome, that will listen and will encourage during challenging times.
Have a little big win? Reward yourself with a bubble bath, pat yourself on the back, take a breather and never (ever) forget that you are unhinged awesomeness!

Stepping through Fear and into Wellness Apr 19, 2020

Dr. Rachel Gregg is changing lives and making the world a better place as a Gut-Brain Guru & Mental Wellness advocate. Rachel stepped away from a stable, six-figure job as a Pharmacist to pursue her passion in empowering others to not merely live, but thrive. She provides a wealth of knowledge on Holistic healing from a Pharmacist's perspective.
We look at the reality of fear, how we opt to approach it, and its ability to make us stronger and live more authentically.
Rachel provides amazing insight on strategies we can implement during our time of social distancing. She looks at the connection with our mental wellness with what we eat, our level of physical activity and what we expose ourselves to (what we read, what we listen to, the people in our lives we choose to surround ourselves with - even if that's through text/ Zoom/ FaceTime, etc.).
It's taking ownership of our life and getting excited to not merely live, but thrive.

Being The Change We Want To See In The World Apr 07, 2020

Our voices can make a difference in ways that can be difficult to wrap our minds around. This year marks the 21st year since losing my sister, Shana, and her friends, Amanda, Angela and Meg to a drunk driver.
I look at how one person's voice in speaking up to prevent Melissa Marvin from driving would have altered history in some massive ways. Four more people would still be here.
It's similar to social distancing right now. We're in the midst of some crazy times and doing what is right and socially distancing can and will save lives. Speaking up when we see people being selfish and not complying and reminding them, we are all in this together.
Getting inspired and stoked to do what's right even when it isn't necessarily convenient is an awesome step. It simply can change the world. Let's be world changers, my friends :)

How To Rock Out Life Like A Marathon Not A Sprint Mar 01, 2020

Would you run at your full speed for 26 miles? Nope.
Not only is that impossible, but it's unhealthy. Too often, we try to go full speed through life, holding onto unrealistic expectations for ourselves, refusing to give up control of things that weigh us down and distract us and our journey becomes more burdensome then it was intended. I look at ways to implement a marathon pace throughout life. You deserve to not live life on a sprinter's pace and you can shift gears. Not only will you enjoy the journey more, but your relationships and outlook on life will be strengthened. How awesome is that?

Do We View The Elderly Like Stinky Cheese or a Fine Wine? Jul 28, 2019

The relevance and significance of valuing the elderly within our families and society is massive. We can choose to be dismissive of those of older generations or we can value and learn from them. The choice is ours.

Stepping Up, Speaking Up, And Getting Our Humanity On Mar 24, 2019

Speaking up. Saying something. In one second lives can be altered or
even lost due to one person's poor decision. The truth is we can be witness to
these decisions and we have a choice to say something or stay silent.
Self harming behaviors come in many forms (driving under the influence, abusing drugs, cutting, toxic relationships, etc.). I believe when we know someone is placing either themselves or others in harms way our words have the potential to make a difference. Sometimes our words have the ability to encourage someone to get help, support or alter their decisions.
In today's episode we chat about how important it is to have a voice, to speak
up and even to ask for help when needed. I share a bit of personal loss in my
own life that could have been prevented with one voice.
The Precious Gems Memorial (https://preciousgemsmemorial.com/) was formed in memory of our girls as well as conveying the message of the dangers of driving under the influence. I hope you have an opportunity to visit the site.

Becca recently released a documentary on the potential value in psychedelic medicine as a future viable form of treatment for those suffering from mental illness.

Get Your Mitzvah On! Dec 16, 2018

Mitzvah is a Jewish term that refers to a commandment to do good deeds unto others. Liora Tedgi, the founder of Ohr Meir & Bracha The Terror Victims Support Center (http://www.terror-victims.org.il/, based in Jerusalem) Is the epitome of mitzvah.
I had the privilege of volunteering a few times during my stay in Israel. This program is one fueled by compassion, kindness and seeking to alleviate heart ache and trauma. I was in awe of this program and their mission.
With a new year upon us and 365 days behind us, the choice is ours. How will we respond to personal challenges, difficult seasons in life? Will we step forward seeking to find the positive in all things? Will we choose to spread kindness rather than anger or bitterness?
How we choose to go forward in all chapters of our life has a tremendous influence on our mental health, our outlook on life and the potential we have to impact the lives of others. The choice, my friend, is ours.
I encourage you to visit Liora's website and if you feel lead, feel free to donate to an organization that is spreading mitzvah on a daily basis. If you happen to visit Jerusalem, know you will be welcomed with open arms to donate your time and energy.
Wishing you a new year filled with peace, love and mitzvah.

A Visit To A Refugee Camp That Made Me Think, What If It Was Me? Nov 18, 2018

When negatives can seem to easily outweigh the positives in today's world happenings it's easy for adults and kids to become desensitized. Placing a face on a refugee, a name to someone who lost everything in a fire or a zip code to a child with a brother battling the demons of addiction... it makes it real.

When Addiction And Mental Health Make The World Smaller Oct 07, 2018

Lots of hurting people out there. The vast majority of us either
face a struggle with mental illness or addiction or they have someone
they care for who does.
Guess what? The more we chat about something, the stronger we become
and the vibe becomes more positive than negative & much more approachable.
I sit with Kerstin Stockhem who runs a residential treatment center, Villa Vita,
with her husband, Chris, in Sweden. She shares the approach of her center and
how Sweden is approaching addiction and mental health challenges. We chat on
the power of caring and treating our fellow hurting humans individually rather
than using one standard method.
If you have someone you care for struggling, hurting... my hope is that you will
pass the word that help is ok and support is something they deserve. Treatment
and recovery are possible. Wishing you blessings and peace as we head into a
new week.

Passion, Politics and People Aug 19, 2018

A life without passion can often lead to complacency and falling short of living to your intended potential.

The Ultimate Box Burner, Angie Lee, And Yoga Pants May 06, 2018

Being passionate about what you do in life is crazy important. For some, that's putting 25-30 years in at your job that will start with a four year college degree. If it fuels you and instills passion, rock on.
There are also many who are called to not walk this line. Whether it be trade school or traveling abroad or…entrepreneurship, taking that step outside of the norm can be crazy scary.
