S12 Ep 290E 290: Tammy's Take #8: You’re Not Stuck… You’re Replaying the Same Story
In this episode of Tammy’s Takes, Tammy Vincent dives into one of the most powerful concepts in healing and personal growth:👉 the stories you tell yourself—and how they’re shaping your reality.Following her conversation with Dr. Karen Parker, Tammy breaks down the idea that you don’t just have a story… you are living inside of it.

S12 Ep 289E 289: How to Rewire Your Story and Heal from Burnout | Dr. Karen Parker
In this episode of Adult Child of Dysfunction, I sit down with Dr. Karen Parker, founder of Quantum Human Design, to talk about something that impacts all of us more than we realize… the stories we carry.So many of the patterns we struggle with today, whether it’s burnout, feeling stuck, or constantly falling into the same cycles, are rooted in the narratives we formed earlier in life. And the powerful part is… those stories are not fixed.Dr. Karen shares how her work blends science and spirituality, bringing together concepts like human design, epigenetics, and narrative coaching to help people understand themselves on a deeper level and begin rewriting the story they’ve been living.We talk about how your past experiences shape your identity, how those patterns can show up emotionally and physically, and what it really looks like to start shifting out of survival mode and into a more authentic, empowered way of living.If you’ve ever felt like you’re stuck in the same patterns or wondering why healing hasn’t fully clicked yet, this conversation will give you a new way to look at it.Your story isn’t set in stone… and you have more power than you think to change it.✨ Connect with Dr. Karen Parker:Website: https://quantumhumandesign.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/drkarenparker22/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@drkarenparkerFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/DrKarenParker22/Hey there, I’m so glad you’re here and tuning in!

S12 Ep 288E288: Tammy's Takes #7: You Don’t Have a Boundary Problem… You Have a Safety Problem
In this Tammy’s Take, we build on my conversation with Angie Hawkins and break down one of the biggest misconceptions around boundaries: it’s not that you don’t know how to set them, it’s that your body doesn’t feel safe enough to hold them.If you’ve ever found yourself saying yes when you meant no, over-explaining, or giving in after trying to set a boundary, this episode will help you understand why. What looks like a boundary issue is often a nervous system response rooted in early patterns of survival.In this episode, I walk you through how to pause, check in with your body, and begin responding from a place of safety instead of survival, so you can start holding boundaries without guilt or fear.If this resonates and you’re ready to understand your patterns on a deeper level, I invite you to book a confidence and clarity call with me. We’ll start uncovering what’s really going on beneath the surface so you can move forward with more ease, confidence, and self-trust.Hey there, I’m so glad you’re here and tuning in!

S12 Ep 287E 287: Learning to Choose Yourself: Boundaries, Self-Worth, and Inner Healing w/Guest Angie Hawkins
In this deeply empowering episode, we sit down with Angie Hawkins, known as The Inner Glow Coach, to explore what it truly takes for women to move from chasing external validation to embodying self-acceptance, confidence, and inner peace.Angie works with high-achieving women who have “done the work” — therapy, personal development, self-help — yet still feel stuck, unfulfilled, or disconnected from their worth. Through both professional insight and personal vulnerability, Angie shares how lasting transformation requires deep inner work and identity-level change, not just surface-level coping strategies.Drawing from her own journey of resilience and healing, Angie discusses the lessons captured in her memoir, Running in Slippers, which chronicles her rise after emotional turmoil and profound self-abandonment. Together, we unpack how early life experiences shape self-worth, why so many women struggle with boundaries, and how overachieving can be a trauma response rather than a strength.This conversation highlights the importance of nervous system awareness, self-compassion, and learning to release self-critical thought patterns. Angie offers a compassionate yet practical framework for reclaiming personal power — reminding listeners that fulfillment doesn’t come from approval, perfection, or productivity, but from learning to radiate love and confidence from within.This episode is a powerful invitation for anyone ready to stop proving their worth and start living from it.🔗 Connect with Angie HawkinsWebsite & Memoir:👉 https://www.runninginslippers.com
