    In today’s episode, I’m sharing a meditation that accompanies the third stage of my alchemical shadow work process from my latest book, Embrace Your Shadow to Find Your Light.

    E176: LLCA Reinvention Coaching | Sneak Peek Oct 14, 2024

    In this episode of The Nancy Levin Show, I’m taking you behind the scenes of Module 1 from Levin Life Coach Academy (LLCA), where we dive into Reinvention Coaching. This is the first model every LLCA student gets certified in and is a unique feature of LLCA in that before coaching others, they first experience the process as a client.

    I’ll take you through the eight dimensions of reinvention, starting with vision—not as an overwhelming concept but as a clear set of ideal circumstances across different life areas. I also discuss the importance of calibration, clearing out "unfinished business" to align with your current vision, and we dive into beliefs, examining those deep stories we carry that often hold us back, so we can shift them and start moving toward what we truly desire.

    If you're curious about the LLCA journey or want to learn more, grab a copy of my guided journal, The Art of Change. More insights from Module 2 coming next week!

    E175: Shadow Work Meditation | Stage 2: Surrender Oct 07, 2024

    In this episode, I’m sharing a meditation that accompanies the second stage of my alchemical shadow work process, from my latest book Embrace Your Shadow to Find Your Light.

    We’ll be focusing on the powerful act of surrender, which I define as releasing our stronghold on the need for things to be a certain way. Surrender is not about giving up - it’s about accepting what is – while still evolving and becoming.

    I’ve included an exciting addition to my book: QR codes that lead to you to these guided meditations for each stage of the process! And today, I’ll guide you through the meditation for the second stage: surrender. So find a comfortable place, close your eyes, and allow yourself to drop into this moment.

    If you missed the meditation for stage one—Awareness—be sure to check it out in episode 173. And, if you’re curious about diving deeper into shadow work, I have a free guide available at nancylevin.com/aware.

    E174: Finding Meaning In Grief with David Kessler Sep 30, 2024

    In this deeply moving episode, I sit down with my dear friend David Kessler, to talk about his groundbreaking work on grief and healing. David shares insights from his Finding Meaning Workbook, which offers powerful tools for navigating loss, trauma, and the path to meaning. We explore how grief comes in many forms—whether it’s the loss of a loved one, a relationship, or even a sense of self—and how, ultimately, healing is about reclaiming your story and becoming the hero of your own journey.

    Together, we dive into the non-linear stages of grief, the role of self-compassion, and why forgiveness sometimes feels impossible. David also explains why meaning isn’t found in the tragic events themselves but in how we rise afterward. This conversation is an invitation to start healing and step into the fullness of your own life.

    E172: Reclaiming My Desire for Fun, Play & Joy! Sep 16, 2024

    In this episode, I’m opening up about something deeply personal—my journey from perfectionism and hyper-responsibility to embracing fun and play as vital parts of life.

    After a weekend with friends in Los Angeles, I realized how much I had long resisted fun, seeing it as frivolous and irresponsible. This belief was deeply rooted in my childhood trauma and the loss of my older brother.

    However, that weekend in L.A. opened my eyes to a new perspective: fun isn't a distraction and it doesn’t come at a cost—it's a source of energy, success, and joy.

    By giving myself permission to enjoy life, I found a form of freedom and fulfillment that I had long denied myself. I invite you to reflect on what might be possible if you allowed yourself the same freedom to reclaim a part of yourself you may have denied.

    I’d love to hear your thoughts on this. Please connect with me on Instagram, or drop me an email, and let me know what resonates with you.

    I’m excited to share that my new book Embrace Your Shadow to Find Your Light comes out tomorrow! And with perfect timing… we’ve reached the final part of my shadow work series where i’ve been guiding you through the 7 alchemical stages of shadow work. To wrap up the series, we’re ending with Stage 7: Wholeness.

    Wholeness is about owning and integrating every aspect of yourself, both “light” and “dark”, and recognizing that everything that exists in the universe also exists within us.

    In this episode, I share the freedom that comes from owning all parts of yourself, how you can confidently step into your visibility, and how my guided journal, Embrace Your Shadow to Find Your Light will support you in reclaiming your wholeness.

    E158: Shadow Work, Part 4: Nourishment Jun 10, 2024

    We’re moving on to part 4 of my shadow work series where I’m guiding you through the 7 alchemical stages of shadow work! This week, I'll be discussing Stage 6: Nourishment. To truly nourish yourself, it’s essential to go beyond meeting your basic survival needs and into fulfilling your deeper desires. Desire is the place where your soul’s passion for purpose, meaning, and fulfillment feels the strongest and most alive. When you live inside desire, not from lack or desperation but from recognition that the presence of desire is its own fulfillment, you stop depriving yourself. This stage involves reclaiming not just ordinary desires, but also shadow desires—strong desires you’ve been resisting for a long time. Recognizing and fulfilling these desires is a crucial part of shadow work.

    In this episode, I share how you can tap into the shadow desires you’ve been resisting, begin putting yourself first, and start taking action to achieve what you want most!

    E89: Cultivating Self-Love Feb 13, 2023

    E88: Uncovering Unconscious Beliefs: Exploring the Relationship between Childhood and Adulting Feb 06, 2023

    In this episode of Your Permission Prescription, I discuss the relationship between unconscious beliefs formed in childhood and the way we show up as adults. Our unconscious beliefs from childhood can keep us stuck from creating the future we most desire. And in order for us to move forward, we must look at our past and challenge our existing limiting shadow beliefs. I share the framework and actionable steps to help you identify your shadow beliefs and spring you forward to embody new, supportive, empowering beliefs.

    E87: Envision Your Empowered Future: The Game-Changing Power of Boundary Setting Jan 30, 2023

    In this episode of Your Permission Prescription, I’ll support you in envisioning your empowered future. If you’re not getting what you want out of life, boundaries can help you shift and change. The first step is to exercise your imagination muscle. Your vision is the most powerful tool in setting the boundaries you want the most. It gives you the courage and confidence to make better decisions for yourself. Imagine, what are the positive and negative outcomes of setting boundaries? What happens if I don’t set any boundaries at all? What happens in my desired future if I DO set boundaries? In order to get what you want, you need to have a vision and desire. And when you have vision and desire, your dream future becomes a reality. You have the courage to change.

    E86: Closing the Confidence Gap: Boost Your Peace, Your Potential, & Your Paycheck with Kelli Thompson Jan 23, 2023

    In this episode of Your Permission Prescription, I talk with Kelli Thompson. Kelli is a Women's Leadership Coach and Speaker who helps women advance to the rooms where decisions are made. She has coached and trained hundreds of women to trust themselves, lead with more confidence, and create a career they love. She is the author of Closing the Confidence Gap, Boost Your Peace, Your Potential, & Your Paycheck, and her book is out right now. We talk about Kelli’s definition of confidence, doubt vs. imposter syndrome, why she wrote her book, and how women can improve their sense of self-worth.

    E85: Pattern Interruption: How Making One Powerful Decision Creates Opportunity Jan 16, 2023

    In this episode of Your Permission Prescription, we’re going to look at financial health and how making one powerful financial decision activates other choices. If you make a decision that affects your vision or financial health, all the pieces, or dominoes, will fall that way. All it takes is one choice to shift your relationship with money in a new, healthy direction. We’ll also talk about pattern interruption and five powerful decisions you can make affect the future you live in.

    E84: Live Coaching: Being Right, Underlying Commitments, and Respecting Your Own Boundaries Jan 09, 2023

    In this episode of Your Permission Prescription, I give live and unscripted coaching sessions to 3 people. Barbara feels she needs to be perceived as “right.” We discuss how this goes back to seeking external validation. Then, Lisa desires to make a career shift. We talk about her underlying commitments and how taking micro actions towards her goal will alleviate her overwhelm. Lastly, Jan is transitioning from full-time to part-time work and worries about crossing the boundaries she sets, with work and family, in order to focus on self-care.

    E83: New Year’s Non-Negotiables and Putting Yourself First in 2023 Jan 02, 2023

    With this episode of Your Permission Prescription, we ring in 2023! Forget resolutions and let’s focus on New Year’s non-negotiables instead. Your non-negotiables are what you must have in your life in order to show up at your fullest, to flourish and be your best. And when we feel engaged in our own life, we are able to be present and give to others from a place of generosity, not obligation. Everything can change for you when you decide to honor yourself and your needs first.

    E82: Reflection and Connection With Yourself Through Poetry Dec 26, 2022

    In this episode of Your Permission Prescription, I’m feeling reflective as we approach the end of 2022. And when I feel reflective, I turn to poetry. Poetry—writing and reading—has always been a guide for me, an invitation to self-discovery. Listen in as I share a poem of mine, as well as a writing practice to get you going on your journey within.

    E81: Know Your Worth, Live Your Dreams, and Step Into Center Stage of Your Life Dec 19, 2022

    In this episode of Your Permission Prescription, I invite you to step into center stage of your own life. To stop abandoning yourself and start making your own needs a priority. In my marriage, I spent nearly two decades doing everything possible to ensure that my then husband's needs were met. I did this out of self-preservation. The antidote to this is to give yourself what you need. You are inherently worthy. Make a commitment to yourself that you are not going to give unless you're giving to yourself as well. Remember that change begins with the commitment to our own evolution. Don’t wait to make a meaningful shift in your life. Give yourself the gift by joining The Art of Change book club.

    E78: Create a Loving Relationship with Yourself through Journaling Nov 28, 2022

    In this episode of Your Permission Prescription, I share my own personal journey with journaling and why it’s such a powerful practice for self-inquiry and self-discovery. Initially, my journey with journaling began when I was 11-years-old as a way for me to communicate with my deceased brother. I was a loner, and I still am, quite frankly. Journaling was a comfort to me, a way to make sense of the world. Writing is how I solve and dissolve complex equations of the heart and head. I honestly believe that the number one way we can create an ongoing, truly honoring, truth telling and loving relationship with ourselves is by journaling. If you’re curious about journaling, I created The Art of Change to guide you, so you can experience a new level of self-connection.

    E77: Gratefulness, Thankfulness, and Negativity Bias Nov 21, 2022

    In this episode of Your Permission Prescription, I’d like to share a reflection on gratitude and thankfulness. Here in the United States, Thanksgiving is approaching. And one of the things I see, quite often, is our human tendency to default to the negative. What happens is we automatically, and sometimes unconsciously, start looking for what’s wrong. This can become a self-fulfilling prophecy. Today, my invitation is this: What can we do to be present? How can we become aware of what we’re thinking? To focus on what’s going right instead of what’s going wrong. Everything that happens in our lives contributes to who we are and will become.

    E76: How to Cozy Up to Conflict Nov 14, 2022

    If you’re a people-pleaser, a peacekeeper, or conflict-avoider, this episode of Your Permission Prescription is for you. We tend to avoid conflict so we don’t feel discomfort, or find ourselves susceptible to someone else’s anger or disappointment. However, the more you avoid external conflict, your internal conflict grows. Remember, it’s not your responsibility to manage someone else’s response to your truth. True, authentic relationships can hold space for both conflict and connection. If you’d like a deeper exploration of this concept and others, check out my book, Permission to Put Yourself First https://nancylevin.com/nancy-levin-books/#permission

    E75: Underlying Commitments: What They Are, How They Keep Us Stuck & The Key to Getting Free Nov 07, 2022

    In today’s episode of Your Permission Prescription, I’m sharing a concept with you that changed my life - Underlying Commitments, or Hidden Commitments. Whenever there is a discrepancy between what we say we want and what we’re actually experiencing, there’s an old, underlying commitment holding us back. So, when we feel stuck, unable to make the changes we desire, it’s most likely because of a hidden commitment, not discipline or willpower. When you align your commitment with your vision, you can finally propel yourself forward. If you’d like a deeper exploration of this concept and others, check out my new guided journal, The Art of Change: Eight Weeks to Making a Meaningful Shift in Your Life. https://nancylevin.com/nancy-levin-books/#aoc

    E74: Live Coaching: Breaking Patterns, Learning to Trust Yourself, and Giving Yourself Permission to Live Your Dream Life Oct 31, 2022

    In today’s episode of Your Permission Prescription, I give live and unscripted laser-coaching to 3 people. Kristal wants to break free from comfort and societal expectations to work, work, work. Carolyn wants to trust herself and flourish after a separation. Lisa wants to leave a pattern of narcissistic relationships and heal so she can live the life she wants. They’re all finding the courage to change!

    E73: Clutter, Unfinished Business, Outdated Dreams - it’s time to Calibrate Oct 24, 2022

    In today’s episode of Your Permission Prescription we’ll explore one of the Eight Dimensions of Reinvention - Calibration. Calibration is the way we gauge, assess, and adjust as we move through the process of reinvention. It’s an act of radical honesty with ourselves. Calibration invites us to check-in with our current pathway to ensure it still serves our vision, or course-correct if it doesn't. Our inability or unwillingness to recalibrate can lead to self-sabotage. We won’t move closer to our goals if they’re not in alignment with our vision. Often, what keeps us from our vision are Incompletions. What unfinished business, loose ends, or neglected responsibilities do you have in your life? Dive deeper into The Eight Dimensions of Reinvention inside my guided journal, The Art of Change: https://nancylevin.com/nancy-levin-books/#aoc

    E72: Setting Boundaries with Difficult People Oct 17, 2022

    In today’s episode of Your Permission Prescription, I’m sharing how to set boundaries with difficult people. Here’s the good news: It’s not as difficult as you may think. Since your boundaries are ultimately between you and you, even if they involve someone else, it’s always your responsibility to set — and hold — them, whether the other person is difficult or not. You have no control over what anyone else does, however, you CAN set boundaries and hold yourself accountable to honor these boundaries. Remember, you don’t need to verbalize your boundaries, or get anyone else's buy-in or permission.

    E71: The Myth of Multitasking with Thatcher Wine Oct 09, 2022

    In this episode of Your Permission Prescription Podcast, I interview Thatcher Wine. Thatcher is the founder and CEO of Juniper Books, a company based in Boulder, Colorado that specializes in custom curated libraries and beautifully designed book sets. Thatcher has long been an advocate for reading as a form of self-care and a means to build focus in the digital age, concepts that form part of the foundation of his latest book, The Twelve Monotasks: Do One Thing at a Time to Do Everything Better. Today, we talk about Thatcher’s monotasking philosophy, how he overcame multiple personal challenges, and how his new book, The Twelve Monotasks, combines Thatcher’s personal experience with research into neuroscience, productivity, and mindfulness.

    E70: The Gift of Change: Learning to Let Go and Embrace Uncertainty Oct 02, 2022

    Today, let’s talk about change. I know many of us, myself included, sometimes fear change. However, what we're really afraid of is being out of control or feeling uncertain. It is in our nature to evolve. What if we stopped fearing change, stepped out of the cycles of perfectionism and self-sabotage, and learned to embrace change as a natural evolution towards our true self? If you want a different life, if your desire is to grow and return to your true essence, if you want to embrace who you truly are, embrace the uncertainty and the unknown. Let go of what’s holding you back and unlock the vision of the life you truly want to live. In this episode, I’ll break down the concept of change, why it’s best to get started even if you don’t know what to do, and how embracing uncertainty can lead to a more fulfilling life.

    Bonus Episode: Permission to Finally Invest in Yourself Sep 27, 2022

    If you identify with being a people-pleaser, a peacekeeper, or a conflict-avoider you likely get your sense of worthiness by what you do for, and give to, others. However, today, I invite you to give yourself permission to invest in yourself. Whether you’re already a life coach, or aspire to be one, or if you want to enhance your current career with life coaching skills, you may still be holding yourself back from saying yes to YOU. In this episode, I’m here to support you in giving to yourself as well.

    E64: Surviving Your Business Growth Spurt with Karen Sergeant Aug 21, 2022

    I used to see myself as an author and a coach, until Karen Sergeant encouraged me to step into the role of CEO. As a result, I’m no longer a bottleneck in my own business—plus, I have more time to do the most important tasks that only I can do. Karen is full of amazing advice like this. She worked in Silicon Valley during the dot-com boom, then worked in counterterrorism for years after 9/11. Today, she’s a growth strategist and advisory COO who helps businesses grow - and survive the growth spurts that can sometimes feel like too much for a new business to handle. Tune in to hear her advice on scaling your business sanely and sustainably.

    E63: How to use Dramatic Demonstration to Build Your Business Through Storytelling Aug 14, 2022

    In today’s episode, I talk with Jude Charles. As a documentary producer, he’s produced stories for the likes of Google, Steve Harvey, and dozens of visionary CEOs. He’s also the author of Dramatic Demonstration, where he lays out his roadmap to leveraging compelling stories to grow your business. Together, we talk about how he got started as a business owner, the things he looks for in a compelling story, and how a serious brush with burnout helped him to learn to better cope with the stress of running your own business.

    E62: Negativity Bias, or Why Insults Affect Us More Than Compliments Aug 07, 2022

    Do you feel the sting of an insult more powerfully than you feel the joy of praise? Are you constantly scanning for what’s wrong, instead of what’s right? If so, you may be experiencing the negativity bias—the psychological phenomenon that causes negative experiences to have a greater impact on our brains than positive or neutral ones. Negativity bias affects our lives in so many sneaky ways—including our relationships, our motivation to complete a task, and our decision-making. In today’s episode, I share some strategies we can all use to manage our minds and focus on the brighter side of life.

    E61: Live Coaching: Finding Intimacy and Connection Without Losing Yourself in a Relationship Jul 31, 2022

    In today’s unscripted live coaching episode, I coach Jennifer about relationships, and more specifically, how it feels to be happily single in middle age after a lifetime of being in serious romantic relationships. Is it better to push yourself back into dating and gain the safety and companionship of a partner—at the risk of losing yourself? Or stay single and live a creatively fulfilling life, at the cost of feeling alone and sexually unfulfilled? Then I coach Natalie about situations in which your truth is going to hurt or disappoint someone else—and how to be more trusting and open with our loved ones in a way that still feels safe and true to yourself.

    E60: How I Manage My Time for Greater Productivity and Happiness Jul 24, 2022

    For over eight years now, I’ve run my own business as a coach, author, and entrepreneur. And over those years, I’ve learned a lot about time—how to manage it, how to stretch it, and how to make the most of it while getting the most important things done as efficiently as possible. In today’s episode, I share what I’ve learned. I’ll explain the Pomodoro Technique, Parkinson’s Law, why I don’t separate work and life (even though I maintain healthy boundaries), and why the use of airplane mode first thing in the morning might just be the most life-changing habit I’ve ever adopted.

    E59: The Relationship Dynamics That Lead to Codependency Jul 17, 2022

    In today’s episode, I do a deep dive into the dynamics that lead to disconnection and codependency in relationships. There’s a common dynamic in relationships where one partner tends to become distant, and the other becomes “clingy”. This is fairly common, if not necessarily healthy. Codependency takes things a step further. It’s when we allow our partner’s behaviors to determine our choices, actions, and behaviors. But here’s good news: there is a solution, where you and your partner become interdependent—caring about each other without feeling the obligation to take on one another’s emotions or problems.

    E58: Dealing with the Taboo of Choosing A Childfree Life with Therese Shechter Jul 10, 2022

    Why does our society still have so much disdain for women who choose not to have children? And more to the point, how should you approach this decision in your life if you’re feeling judged for wanting a child-free life? That’s the subject of today’s episode with Therese Shechter, the award-winning filmmaker and Director, Producer, and Writer of the film, “My So-called Selfish Life: A New Documentary About the Childfree Choice.” Together we explore the taboos and trade-offs around living a child-free life, along with some of the ways we can avoid the social pressure to procreate and give ourselves permission to live the life we really want.

    E57: Live Coaching: Putting the Transformation Equation to Work in Your Life Jul 03, 2022

    I’ve coined something I call the Transformation Equation, which is: Change = Vision + Choice + Action. It sounds simple, but when you learn to apply this concept to your life, it will work wonders. And in today’s episode you get to hear it in action as you listen in on several real live coaching sessions. First we talk about how to avoid putting your own needs on the backburner when you’re stuck in the “sandwich generation” and caring for kids and parents at the same time.

    E55: Why It’s So Important to Share Your Truth—And How to Do It Safely in 3 Steps Jun 19, 2022

    In today’s episode, I talk about the second step in my “Jump . . . And Your Life Will Appear” book and coaching program: tell the truth to someone safe. When we withhold a secret or a difficult truth, it turns us into a human pressure cooker. But when you share that truth with another person, it’s like hitting the “release” button. It lets the steam out. The trick, of course, is to share that truth safely with someone you trust. Listen in to learn how to have that conversation in a way that lets the other person know how you want to be received. Trust me on this one: sharing your truth in this way can be a freeing and life-changing conversation if you do it right.

    E54: The Signs and Symptoms of Being a People Pleaser Jun 12, 2022

    Do you want to keep everybody happy all the time? Do you blame yourself for things that aren’t your fault? Take on more tasks than you can handle? If so, you might be a people pleaser—and today’s episode is for you. Here’s the first thing to know: people pleasing tendencies are often a symptom of a deeper issue, such as issues with self-worth or setting boundaries. But when you put others first, you end up putting your worth and value in the hands of someone else. There is a solution, though, and it’s found in learning to set and hold healthy boundaries. Listen in to learn how to recognize the signs and symptoms of your people pleasing behavior, and how to start the healing process.

    E53: Where Does Your Sense of Self-Worth Come From? Reframing Mistakes, Collaboration, and Criticism Jun 05, 2022

    In today’s episode, I explore the topics of mistakes, collaboration, and self-worth. As a former people pleaser, I used to be a perfectionist. Maybe you can relate. And as a perfectionist, my sense of self-worth was wrapped up in my achievements. It was so bad that at one point, as the Event Director at Hay House, my team gave me a nickname: Bru (short for Brujita), which means “little witch” in Spanish. The reason why? Because I allowed no room for error in my team. It took me years to realize that making mistakes and asking for help doesn’t make you less of a person. And when you can figure out how to learn from your mistakes and accept the help of others, it takes a ton of weight off your shoulders and frees you to be a happier person.

    E50: Healing Our Core Wounds Through Psychoastrology with Lisa Tahir May 15, 2022

    Most of us know our basic astrological sign and what it says about our personality, but far fewer people realize the significance of our Chiron—our core wound—and how an understanding of it can help us to find relief from our deepest sources of pain and suffering. Today I talk with Lisa Tahir, psychotherapist and founder of Psychoastrology, about her unique therapeutic approach that lives at the intersection between our personal psychology and our natal astrology.

    E49: F the Shoulds and Do the Wants with Tricia Huffman May 08, 2022

    Do you ever feel overwhelmed or even oppressed by all the “shoulds” in your life? You should order the salad, you should work out today, you should work late on that project, you should clean the house, you should, you should, you should. Well, according to today’s guest—rock-and-roll roadie turned “joyologist” Tricia Huffman—all those “shoulds” are causing nothing but mayhem and misery in our lives. Instead, we need to do a better job of getting back to ourselves and understanding what we want, what we need, and why. It’s a wonderful message and a brilliant way to own who we really are each and every day.

    E48: Going Beyond Food & Diet for True Inner Well-Being with Kimberly Snyder May 01, 2022

    When most of us think about wellness, we automatically go to the physical. The tangible. Things like food. Are you getting enough riboflavin? Are you getting enough omega-3 fatty acids? And that’s important, sure. But many people end up focusing on minutiae to the point that they neglect the most important formless cornerstones of health: emotional well-being, mental health, spiritual growth. In today’s conversation, I talk with nutritionist and New York Times best-selling author Kimberly Snyder about how we can do a better job of nourishing ourselves in all the most important ways—physical and nonphysical—to lead happier, more joyous lives.

    E47: The Big Myth About Life Coaching Apr 24, 2022

    Many people assume the job of a life coach is to give advice. But there’s a problem with this approach. One of the fundamentals of any coaching relationship is that the client is always the expert on themselves. This means that the coach can’t just show up with all the answers. Instead, their real job is to help guide the client to find their own inner wisdom and hold them accountable to the commitment they’ve made to themselves. In today’s episode, Nancy dives into this topic and explains how to approach coaching sessions in a way that leads to better results that are more consistent with the client’s beliefs and goals.

    E46: From Heroin Overdose to World-Traveling Digital Nomad with Francis Nayan Apr 17, 2022

But when he fell into a heroin addiction that led to an overdose, he felt as if all his dreams would never be more than that—dreams. But he managed to bounce back from rock bottom and reinvent himself as a world-traveling digital nomad. I think we can all take lessons from his story, like the importance of being open to change, setting firm boundaries with clients, and forgiving ourselves over past mistakes.

In this episode, I coach Jen, a student in my Levin Life Coach Academy who’s getting certified as a life coach. She has a tendency to put herself in a place of suffering in order to make others feel better. It’s one of the hallmark traits of a people pleaser—and I’ve got some experience with that. Listen in for a peek behind the curtain into a coaching session where I help her explore this tendency and gain more insight into some of the unconscious motivations behind her behavior.

    E44: Building a Beautiful Relationship with “The Intimacy Doctor,” Alexandra Stockwell Apr 03, 2022

    Intimate relationships are such a vital part of our lives, and yet from time to time we all struggle to maintain an honest, trusting relationship with our partner. I know I did. I was married many years ago, and as a people-pleaser, I suppressed my personal wants and needs in order to fulfill my husband’s. If this is an issue for you, you’ve got to listen to today’s episode with Alexandra Stockwell, M.D., best-selling author of Uncompromising Intimacy. She sheds light on common relationship pitfalls, such as high-performing women who don’t feel they get the support they need. Alexandra and I talk about how to grow a more passionate and fulfilling relationship—one where both partners receive the support they need to thrive individually and together.

In this episode I discuss the answers to these questions and much more as we explore the key differences between coaching and therapy.

An ADHD diagnosis in adulthood offered Kate answers, alongside freedom to be the most authentic version of herself. She shares her personal story, shedding light on why so many young girls struggling with ADHD are so often overlooked and what can be done about it.

    Today I am talking with two different Natalies who share a similar struggle of allowing the opinions and needs of others to influence their actions. First is Natalie S, who is afraid she does not have a clear vision. She’s been putting the needs of others ahead of her own for so long, she’s unsure how to start putting her own needs first. Together we uncover that the lack of life and excitement she’s feeling inside is actually due to her not paying attention to the parts of herself that are most alive — and how to remedy that.

    E23: My Arms Aren’t on Anyone’s Vision Board Anymore Nov 07, 2021

    I’ve been thinking a lot about something Laurie Wagner said in episode 18 of Your Permission Prescription. She talked about letting your belly hang over your jeans… and that was never something I felt safe doing. Growing up, my body was scrutinized. Then, in my marriage, my body was scrutinized. Having a thin, toned body was the be-all, end-all. Until it wasn’t. People often say of a woman, “She’s let herself go.” But that’s not accurate. We don’t let ourselves go — we let go. In this solo episode, I reflect on letting go and loving my body as it is.

If you’re on the precipice of change, this episode will help you inhabit your own life — and trust that you don’t have to do it alone.

    E10: How to Make Boundaries About Collaboration, Not Compromise Aug 15, 2021

    Back in episode 7 of Your Permission Prescription, I busted one of the biggest myths around boundaries. Today I’m taking things a step further and sharing how expressing your boundaries is NOT about asking someone else for permission. If you struggle to set and hold boundaries because you think it’s about telling others what to do, this episode offers a necessary and refreshing reframe! Learn how to let boundaries be an exploration of what’s true to YOU — no resentment or martyrdom required.

    Yep, you read that right! In Levin Life Coach Academy (my training and certification program for life coaches), when I teach about the disowned quality of narcissism that even empaths must own, everyone sits up a little straighter and listens a little closer. Empaths having narcissistic qualities? You bet! In this episode, I’m so excited to be joined by Melissa Grace, a brilliant coach, trainer and former psychotherapist. We explore the role of narcissistic behaviors in an empath’s personality, the relationship dynamics between empaths and narcissists, and how to heal wounds in order to serve ourselves in the most supportive way.

    E8: Live Coaching: Embracing Your Body, Inhabiting Your Life, Feeling Worthy Aug 01, 2021

    Do you ever struggle to believe you’re worthy of what you want — not someday, but just as you are, right here, right now? If so, I know you’ll get a lot out of this episode. In it I coach Linda, Angi and Rose Marie. They’re all dealing with unique challenges, but there is a common denominator: feeling worthy. Worthy of feeling gorgeous in your body right now. Worthy of the career success you’ve been dreaming of (even when practical health concerns are a factor). Worthy of being seen and taking care of your own needs, not just other people’s. This is an uplifting conversation that I hope will inspire you to stop putting off feeling good and taking action and remember you’re worthy of everything you want.

    E7: Who’s Crossing Your Boundaries? Hint: It’s Not Other People Jul 25, 2021

In this episode, I share what boundaries are and are not, and I break down the ways we cross our own boundaries and why. If you struggle to sit with feelings of discomfort around setting (and holding) boundaries, this is for you. You’ll feel empowered to take ownership of your boundaries so you can build trust in yourself and honor your needs.
