Lisa is joined by Naturopathic Coach, Speaker and Author Pearl Chiarenza. Pearl shares her journey to health and wellness and how that led her on the path to help others! We talk vision purses (yes, I said purses), manifesting health, and much more!
In Pearl's own words: "I will be your guide through your weight-loss and personal life journey. I struggled with my weight for years. To be honest, I never thought I could cook. It wasn’t until my I went through my own health issues and I said enough was enough that invested in my health, hired a coach and started to hook healthier did my Mother-In-Law say to me “I didn’t know you could cook.” Where I replied “Neither did I.”
I did the yo-yo dieting for years when I stepped up and did the coaching I lost 57lbs.
Maybe you want to loose weight, or maybe it’s an emotional journey you are on. I’ve been there too. Years ago while my boys were young, I walked around with shackles on. I realized it was all about my kids and my Husband and I didn’t know where I fit into our story. It wasn’t until my son went to college that I shifted my mindset and my business, became a certified life coach to help more women like you."

Here is the book description:
Hidden in everyday foods are the causes of a surprising range of health problems: infertility, menstrual cramps, weight gain, hair loss, breast and prostate cancer, hot flashes, and much more. All of these conditions have one thing in common: they are fueled by hormones that are hiding in foods or are influenced by the foods we eat.
Your Body in Balance provides step-by-step guidance for understanding what's at the root of your suffering - and what you can do to feel better fast. Few people realize that a simple food prescription can help you tackle all these and more by gently restoring your hormone balance, with benefits rivaling medications. Neal Barnard, MD, a leading authority on nutrition and health, offers insight into how dietary changes can alleviate years of stress, pain, and illness. What's more, he also provides delicious and easy-to-make hormone-balancing recipes, including:

Cauliflower Buffalo Chowder
Kung Pao Lettuce Wraps
Butternut Breakfast Tacos
Mediterranean Croquettes
Apple Pie Nachos
Brownie Batter Hummus

Your Body in Balance gives new hope for people struggling with health issues. Thousands of people have already reclaimed their lives and their health through the strategic dietary changes described in this book. Whether you're looking to treat a specific ailment or are in search of better overall health, Dr. Neal Barnard provides an easy pathway toward pain relief, weight control, and a lifetime of good health.

EP #990: Energy Work, Healing Trauma, & Self-Care Feb 16, 2021

Lisa and Andrea are joined by Jonathan Goldman, M.Ac. to talk about his book The Gift of the Body: A Multi-Dimensional Guide to Energy, Anatomy, Grounded Spirituality and Living Through the Heart. Enjoy this rich discussion covering some of what is below.
The work that Goldman does and teaches clears lifelong depression, trauma, fears, anxieties, resentments, shame, self-judgment, relationship dysfunction, scarcity thinking, spiritual disconnection, and much more. Goldman's goal is to lead you to become "the commander of your own vehicle." He teaches you the art of inner alignment --The Divine Tactics -- to be empowered to live your life informed by self-knowledge and self-actualization. You become your own teacher by having access to your heart, your intuition, and the inspiration of Light. This work is not defined by ideology or religious dogma. It is based on the reality of Light and the inherent qualities present in all humans. An example: compassion is a universal force. It lives in a specific location in your heart chakra. It is built into your original equipment. It has nothing necessarily to do with religion. It is not the same thing as empathy. The embodiment of compassion is the key to healing, energetic protection, and inner peace. This is something anybody can learn. This knowledge has come to Goldman through a fascinating journey that has led him to become one of the first practitioners of acupuncture in the United States, to the depth of the Amazon rainforest of Brazil, and to teaching and guiding people in their spiritual transformation all over the world. He learned his craft through forty years of clinical practice and multiple pieces of training in various healing arts. Under the guidance of a leading Bioenergetic practitioner and spiritual teacher, he experienced a consciousness-awakening journey to Brazil that opened his mediumistic gifts and made him available to multi-dimensional influences. This initially manifested when he was guided where to put needles in patients that were not in keeping with traditional teachings-and he began to get phenomenal results! Tracking the diagrams of needle placement, enabled him to begin charting the Human Energy Vehicle. From that point forward, Goldman began receiving what became The Chakra Map, Transformational Energy Healing, and The Divine Tactics. His own journey of personal healing and spiritual evolution has paralleled the knowledge that he has received and taught to thousands.Goldman is one of the leading educators on the embodiment of Light and its use in healing and for spiritual illumination. The Essential Light Institute, which he co-founded in 2008, is dedicated to teaching the arts of self-transformation and energy healing through a direct relationship with the living force of Light. In his book The Gift of the Body: A Multi-Dimensional Guide to Energy, Anatomy, Grounded Spirituality and Living Through the Heart he describes it as "an experiential, practical, transformational manual for the adventure school of your life." Goldman is also one of the premier experts and leaders in the United States in the ceremonial use of plant medicine. He led the decade-long campaign that successfully freed the Santo Daime for spiritual practice in the U.S.

Lisa is joined by Chloe Carmichael, Ph.D. a licensed clinical psychologist, and author of “Nervous Energy: Harness the Power of Your Anxiety” (Macmillan, 2021), Dr. Chloe says that while the pandemic has been a source of stress for everyone, if you are a goal-oriented person, “to-do list” diehard, overachiever, or over-analyzer, you may be experiencing more anxiety than the average person. Even before the term, COVID-19 had entered our vocabulary, burnout, stress, and anxiety were significant issues in the workplace and society in general. And while some experts predict the coronavirus pandemic will be the most psychologically toxic disaster in anyone’s lifetime, Dr. Chloe says there are nine easy-to-use tools at anyone’s disposal that can help to harness nervous energy, or what some may describe as high anxiety, to live a more productive and fulfilling life.
She shares four of the 9 anxiety tools in this interview that she details in her new book to help successful people harness nervous energy including:

Creating mental shortlists
Creating emotion-based to-do lists
Scripting anchoring statements
Scheduling “worry time.”

More than one-third of Americans have displayed clinical signs of anxiety, depression, or both since the coronavirus pandemic began, according to Pew Research Center. 2021 is the perfect year to reimagine how we handle stress and Dr. Chloe shares simple ways to adjust and thrive through inevitable life changes.
