What's On Your Heart

"Meet Lucy, a little girl who learns to face her nighttime worries with the help of her mom’s 'Happy Thoughts Magic.' Join Lucy on her journey to shrink the Worry Monster as she discovers that everyone has worries and that happy thoughts can make them feel smaller. This comforting story is perfect for helping young children understand and manage their own emotions, especially at bedtime."

Worry Monster

A discussion of The Roots of Self-Esteem by author and trauma psychologist Ernie Vecchio. He proposes that childhood experiences deeply shape an individual's self-esteem. He posits that harsh judgment, neglect, or criticism from caregivers can wound a child's developing sense of self-worth, leading to internalized shame. This shame can manifest in adulthood as self-protective behaviors like perfectionism or people-pleasing, ultimately reinforcing negative self-perception. Vecchio emphasizes the detrimental impact of such early experiences on an individual's emotional well-being and overall sense of self.

The Roots of Self-Esteem

In this podcast we discuss the crucial role of listening partnerships  in relation to parental guilt. A listening partner offers us the opportunity to speak freely about our feelings without judgment or minimising. Often when we speak about our feelings with our partner or a close friend they may tell us we are ‘over thinking’ or worrying too much. Being listened to by someone who appreciates t core aware parenting principles, gives us the opportunity to unpack lingering  ‘guilty’  feelings. It is important to note that when these feelings are left unspoken they can lead to low-grade feelings of depression, lack of confidence and unworthiness. When we fully acknowledge what has happened we can begin to put down these burdens. With gentle encouragement a listening partner may  also help us recall times when we offered our children some wonderful moments of connection. Being reminded of what is RIGHT with us will help us gather resources and prepare us once again to enter the crazy parenting dance. Treading that tricky path of being a heartfelt and engaged parent with an awareness for our own  limits and needs as well.

143| Declutter Your Life & Overcome Anxiety: 5 B’s Blueprint with Emily McDermott

Welcome! We are Sharon and Cris, two neurodivergent, queer, Latinx bilingual twins getting to know ourselves, questioning and unlearning the things we were taught, healing and growing. We create in English, Spanish, and Spanglish because one language is never enough.

We will no longer provide descriptions to our episodes as that is not within our capacity nor is it a priority for us. We are sharing our emotional wealth in this podcast and invite others to be part of a reciprocal equitable energetic exchange in the form of Zelle, Venmo, Amazon Wish List, subscribing to the podcast, commenting, sharing with a friend, sharing your story with us, or booking a session with us. There is a severe lack of emotional wealth in this world and we offer this to folx that are ready to embrace abundance not just as a physical need but as a mental, emotional and spiritual need. Join us on this journey of discovering the needs we never knew existed within our body, mind, spirit, and soul. 

This podcast is for us by us. Every episode is created during a certain moment in time in which we made an intentional decision to sit with our feelings and alchemize. This podcast centers our lived experiences and our opinions, thoughts, and perspectives will change over time. We may come back to these episodes and shift our perspectives. We commit to learning and unlearning. We exist beyond the black and white binary instead living and creating in the gray. Change is a constant and we commit to surrendering to the ebbs and flows of life.

Humbly sitting and assisting others in healing from severe trauma, I have spent my career understanding the human psyche and its response to suffering. My clients say: “It is sad that we have to sever a spinal cord or be amputated to care where we land on the Humane Spectrum!”  Today, https://www.intentional-evolution.org/ offers evidence that our shared inner journeys have a common theme: everyone experiences division. I am suggesting that people have to heal their inner division before repair appears in the culture. Then, and only then, can we connect, be empathetic, and have a reciprocal relationship with ourselves and others. Tune in and listen to discussions around my teachings.

Do you wish you could escape the captivity of traumatic memories? Are you sick of feeling hopeless in your search for healing? Scared to go to God for your healing yet once again … just to not see it happen?

If any of that hit home, you are in the right place!

My mission in this podcast is to equip you to hear God’s voice so you can heal from trauma, get free of anxiety and depression, and find the spiritual healing you’ve been aching for.

Hey there, I’m Heather O’Brien. Jesus fanatic, wife, boy mom, minister, and author. For years, I was a Christian sitting on the pews every Sunday, but hopelessly living with addictions as well as depression and anxiety for years.   

I prayed for myself, but I was full of shame being stuck in cycles I couldn’t break free from.

My healing and deliverance came from learning how to hear God’s voice. Stay with me here. I didn’t know that was a thing either! I didn’t know the God of the universe, my creator, wanted to personally talk to me. But He did and He does!  

I started praying, expecting God to speak to me, and He did! God gave me a blueprint of step-by-step instructions to forgive the unforgivable, heal from the trauma, and be delivered of limiting beliefs as well as addictions. 

If you are ready to find healing from trauma, anxiety, and depression, with prayers that actually work, this podcast is for you!

Warrior, I pray the Spirit of revelation comes upon you now and may your heart and mind be receptive to hearing God’s voice as you tune in.
