Ep #180: Understanding the Energy of Resistance (Part 1)
I love bringing you discussions from inside Anchored, and recently, we’ve been talking about a term that has become quite the buzzword these days: resistance.

Read MoreEp #178: Your Future Self
We talked recently about your past self, and how vital it is to give that version of us love, care, and compassion for doing the darned best we could with the skills and tools we had at that moment of our lives. Beating ourselves up for being who we were taught to be keeps us…

Read MoreEp #176: Loving Your Past Self, Living with Compassion
When we start gaining awareness that it’s possible to ditch our old codependent, perfectionist, and people-pleasing thought habits, and we begin learning and living into new ways of being, it’s super common to get down on ourselves. We have a habit of speaking to and thinking of ourselves in such unkind and even cruel ways,…

If you’ve spent a lifetime of time, energy, and effort seeking safety from other people and meticulously making sure everyone else is always looked after, but can’t shake the resentment and powerlessness that comes along with this habit, you’re not alone. The good news is that if what you’ve been doing so far hasn’t been…
Read MoreEp #174: Polyvagal 101
Polyvagal theory and nervous system regulation have been a cornerstone of my medical practice in functional medicine and in my coaching work as a somatic life coach. I’ve talked a lot about polyvagal theory throughout these podcast episodes over the last three years, but I realized I’ve never done a full-on polyvagal 101, and it’s…

Read MoreEp #172: Showing Up for You and Your Nervous System in Tragedy
Given what’s going on in the world right now: the racist-fueled murders in Buffalo and California, the murder of children and teachers in Texas, the ongoing war in Ukraine, and attacks on women’s and LGBTQ+ rights, all during a continuing global pandemic, it’s vital to pause and acknowledge these horrifying tragedies. This week, I wanted…
Read MoreEp #171: Rescuing vs Supporting
One key component of codependent thinking is the misguided belief that it’s our job to rescue others. The trope of the rescuer has us operating and giving, even when we’re running on empty, and while this seems like a worthwhile and honorable endeavor, the truth is there’s a fine line between attempting to rescue those…
