S2:E14 - The Future Will Have Us All Trauma Informed - Here's Why Feb 18, 2024

Show notes

I share why I firmly believe that the future will have us all trauma-informed. This episode is more business flavoured, and introduces my Brain-Body-Business-Mind (aka Trauma Informed) Approach to Business Growth. I talk about where this language is coming from, why this is moving deeper into the mainsteam, the stats, and give some examples along with a few more brain-body resources I am excited about. I mention two practitioners I have worked with - their contact details are below. Finally I touch on the fact that thoughts and words have little effect on dysregulated physiology, yet dysregulated physiology is the most influential factor on our words and thoughts.

This is Clara Jana Vavrova - https://www.facebook.com/jana.vavrova.3517/about - I flew to Prague to work with Clara on a Brain-Body resource called Constellation Work, from the Internal Family Systems school of thought. A life changing experience. Clara offers online sessions as well.

This is Stephanie Hartwell - https://www.facebook.com/stephanie.burton.104 - Stephanie is in London, UK and has a toolbox full of brain-body resources, she is known for her Havening work, and my sessions with her tend to have a ripple effect I experience weeks after the sessions. Cannot recommend Stephanie enough.

I mention two stages of dysregulation; primary and maintenance.

Primary is stage 1 - moving from Triage to Treatment, stage 2, is your daily practice. I talk about some resources to consider here, along with some ideas on home treatments.

S2:E13 - Dissecting Both My Overreaction and The 4 Stages of c-PTSD Recovery Feb 15, 2024

Show notes

I use this episode to dissect two things; my spectacular overreaction to a seemingly normal situation that took place yesterday, before dissecting a framework I've been designing for a few months now, to better help me understand what c-PTSD Recovery looks like, sounds like and feels like as I move through it. I'm sharing what I learned about me, my overreaction, my recovery, those 4-stages to recovery, and a wee look at the cost involved with the lingering effects of stress, that we continue to avoid, ignore or distract from.

S2:E12 - A Recovering Toxic Boss Reflects on the Why, How and When... Feb 12, 2024

Show notes

An interesting episode for me as I explore the impact a Toxic Boss can have on their team and the business along with why, how and when my own Toxic Boss style would have been amped up, with a quick look at the role C-PTSD plays on all sides of this table. Of course, I offer only one lens on a subject that deserves a far deeper review of it.

I'd like to throw my hat in that ring and suggest.... undiagnosed C-PTSD be considered.

S2:E11 - Your Chaotic Relationship With Money Might Be C-PTSD Feb 08, 2024

Show notes

This episode briefly looks at 8 benefits of C-PTSD that lend themselves well to the workplace and generating income, before a quick definition of what contributes to Financial Wellbeing, before I share my thoughts on why C-PTSD can wreak so much havoc with one's financial situation that Financial Insecurity is the space most people with past unresolved stress, continue to operate in. I am sharing my insights on where I am at today in the area of C-PTSD and: money, earning, pricing, investing that will no doubt evolve and shift over the coming years. Consider this my proverbial flag in the ground as I begin to better understand the role of C-PTSD at Work.

S2:E10 - The Growth Mindset is an Incomplete Truth When... Feb 07, 2024

Show notes

I'm shooting from the hip here as I explore my thoughts, insights, and learnings in tandem with a dozen conversations these last few weeks on my challenges with the Growth Mindset industry. The 'Cognitive Reframing' that yields very little long lasting change when... (there's the key for my current assessment) 'when'. But what about Tony Robbins lot who walk on fire? What about focus as a portal? What...?

I know! I agree, AND, I'd like to add my two cents on when this is an incomplete truth, *when* it is abusive, and *when* it works. An inquiry I reckon I'll continue to explore for at least the next 5 years. And - here is where I am at with it, just now.

S2:E8 - Lost In The Void Leads You Here... Jan 29, 2024

Show notes

This episode was inspired by Carl Jung. Two quotes in particular. "You meet your destiny on the road you took to avoid it" and "People will do anything, no matter how absurd, to avoid meeting their own soul". This episode takes a look at what it looks like when one is lost in the void, the likely destinations your route through the void will drop you off in ,and what you can do to get out of the proverbial Void, or if you've travelled long enough, how to get out of that destination you may have ended up in.

S2:E6 - Why Does Being Seen Have Us In Hiding? Jan 24, 2024

Show notes

In this episode, I want to explore this subject, as I have done several times in the past. Only this time, through the brain-body-mind lens. Up until a few years ago, my examination of this subject was largely mind-over-matter, a truly futile endeavour.

"I know what I am supposed to do, but I just can't do it!"

The reality is we do know. The challenge is we just can't act, not in an authentic, inspired, fun-to-do-it kind of way. We will look at Brain-Body Dysregulation, Bottom Up resources, Alignment, Congruency and Authenticity and some ideas on how to transform Hiding into Being Seen.

I mention Dr. Bruce Lipton's video, Biology of Belief. Here's the link to his full lecture as promised. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VAM-4HN2p58
