Happy Tuesday Heal Squad. It's a Heal Squad Tuesday Chat show featuring Maria and Keven where 'Tuesday is the new Thursday!' Speaking of Tuesdays...

Mom/daughter advice from Tiffany Amber Thiessen and New England talk with Adam Sandler, including Kev's somewhat embarrassing discussion with Adam on his most underrated movie.

Regular Guy Friday ep. 134 Why They Don't See You?

Greetings, regular people! We've fooled them again and made it to another Friday to revel in the one day of the week that's all yours! We explore how mold can trigger migraines, fatigue, autoimmune issues, and more. Many of us may not realize we're suffering from mold toxicities, and it's essential to be cautious of homes that have that distinctive 'grandparent smell.' We'll delve into why the ages of 38-43 mark the transition into mature adulthood and why it's the right time to start resolving issues from our past. We'll also discuss how perfectionism often stems from fear and how pushing ourselves beyond our limits can lead to imposter syndrome. Discover why narcissists, dysfunctional families, and toxic work environments often fail to recognize or acknowledge your greatness and learn about the tragic pitfalls of remaining in those systems. Additionally, we'll explore how we manifest our fears and negative thoughts - what we repeatedly talk about tends to become a reality - and ways to override these detrimental thought patterns. If you've faced setbacks in your endeavors, remember that time and age are on your side. Sometimes, the world just needs to catch up to you, and you may need to slow down. Bye, betches!

730. Kris Carr's Inspiring Path through Stage 4 Cancer, Grief, and Emotional Healing

Hey Heal Squad, this is a must-episode to tune into for you or anyone you know suffering from disease, particularly cancer. Over 20 years ago, Kris Carr discovered she had over 20 tumors and stage four cancer. If you know anything about cancer, you know there is no stage five. Yet, Kris is still here with us to share her healing journey, which I hope can be yours. Kris struggled with issues of perfectionism, shame, control and a host of other emotions familiar to many of us, which she, without coincidence, learned how to manage. In this second part, we focus more on grief as Kris, on top of her cancer, had to deal with a terminally ill father, financial pressures, the pandemic and more. Kris soon realized how much we all grieve in this lifetime, whether it's a cheating spouse, a miscarriage, a death or even a life transition. As I said after part one, Kris offered so much that I've already invited her back. Ruptures such as sickness, divorce, miscarriage, and death: How do we navigate our emotions when bad things happen? You don't think life can get stormier, but it does: Dad is diagnosed with terminal cancer, the pandemic hits, and it's year 20 of cancer with new financial strains to boot. When the grief train arrives, in come all the cars: Talk therapy and even medications help. Grief and love go hand in hand: Living and awakening happened when Dad was dying. Rehearsing conversations in grief: Kris surrenders control, stops trying to run, and opens up to her father after a few conversations in the mirror. Anticipatory grief: It happens long before the loss and helps you cope during and after. Do not cut out emotions: We can't amputate our emotions and expect to be whole. Bring awareness, curiosity, and compassion to whatever emotion triggers you to unlock and relieve Finding joy and happiness without costing anything: Smelling flowers or playing with your dog is another way to 'change the channel.' Being in 'what I want mode': Shift your mindset to what you want more of to prevent dark thoughts from coming in as a mental fitness exercise. Simple healthy practices: Easiest to apply and stick to. Feed your joy: Bring more goodness into your life. The anti-inflammatory life path: Kris shares her simple-to-follow practices, encouraging others to create and implement their own practices. Do not be glued to a diagnosis: Many of us are taught to do so, which is limiting.

729. Surviving Stage 4 Cancer: A Journey to Embrace Life w/ Kris Carr

Hey Heal Squad, for you or anyone else you know suffering from disease, particularly cancer, this is a must episode to tune into. Over 20 years ago, Kris Carr discovered she had over 20 tumors and stage four cancer. If you know anything about cancer, you know there is no stage five. Yet, Kris is still here with us to share her healing journey, which I hope can be yours. Kris struggled with issues of perfectionism, shame, control and a host of other emotions familiar to many of us, which she, without coincidence, learned how to manage. These two parts were so rich in takeaways that I've already invited her back. Stage 4 Cancer Diagnosis: Tumors in her liver and lungs at age 31. View your health as a business: replace people (doctors) if they are not performing just like in a business. Watch and wait, watch and live: let cancer make the first move while Kris chooses to watch and live. Find collaborative doctors: research, network, be willing to travel, and have an advocate go to meetings with you. Feeding my soul with nutrition: I need to control something and I can control what I put in my mouth: whole foods, plant-based foods and foods that make me feel better. It's not just about what you're eating: It's also about what's eating you. Manage fear and anxiety: make peace with this journey to do so. It's not about perfection: it's about being mindful Anxiety loops: developing a new muscle in your brain to get back to the present when negative stories and anxiety loops enter. Getting past perfection: lower the bar and know you'll have setbacks. Stay in awareness: when more aware and in tune with self, you can say this behavior is not serving my highest good, 'this is not how I want to feel...this is not serving me...' Be okay with a B+: no one is really going to know the difference Something has to give: eventually, your body will give out and you will pass before your time per physics. Control is a trauma response: it's not something that happened to you; it happened inside of you. The whole journey of being a human: dealing with uncertainty If I get sick then I'll make the changes: the dangers under this form of thinking. How I got the cancer is NOT the question: asking leads to blame things, including ourselves. It's more about the now. What do I do now to help myself. Silver linings? Do not blame yourself whether you see cancer as a gift or not. The power of 'I quit': after her ten-year check-up when not being cured, Kris says 'I quit' to try to cure herself instead of trying to heal. We can always be healing: embrace that sentiment. Be thoughtful of who to spend time with: for those who don't 'get it', they are not your teachers. You are more likely their teachers.

Regular Guy Friday ep. 133 Why Ambition During Crisis is Torture

Greetings Regular People, we fooled them again and made it to another Friday to revel in the one day of the week that's yours! How doctors may know how to treat illness, but why you may be better at healing. Why self-reliance and resilience may be the greatest life asset. What removing all pain and providing all pleasure results in. What generation did Harvard University call the Failure to Launch? Why when in a crisis or a major life transition, the worst thing to be is ambitious. Why recovering codependents look for reasons to fulfill their codependent script by over-giving to narcissists and how they get nothing in return except the fleeting sense of superiority? How entitled people are not grateful. How parents create narcissists by being codependent and then that narcissist goes on to create a codependent and so on. RGF bonus: Where are they now: Nena from 99 Luftballoons. Why Nena? Why not!

These states are essential for learning, connection, and deep rest.

712. The Power of Vulnerability, Service and Forgiveness w/ Vishen Lakhiani, Anne Lamott & Lewis Howes

Hey Heal Squad, get ready to heal, transform and grow through the power of vulnerability and surrender with Heal Squad All Stars Lewis Howes, Annie Lamott and Vishen Lakhiani. We discuss equating surrender with weakness - which I was guilty of until I learned to embrace the power of vulnerability. We also discuss confronting suppressed memories, particularly around sexual abuse, and the scarcity of representation, struggles with self-abandonment and repetitive relationship patterns, engaging in an inner dialogue with our younger selves to unveil deep wounds, and empowering commitments to radical self-love and authenticity. The episode also explores the enriching experiences of cultural diversity during travels, spreading hope and empathy, lessons learned from engaging with older adults and the significance of sharing love and acts of service. If you seek inner peace and meaning, this Heal Squad All Stars is a must! Vishen Lakhiani Power of Focus in Meditation: focus on healing or personal growth makes longer meditation sessions more manageable. Benefits of Short Meditation Sessions: just 15 minutes of the 'six phase' practice yields benefits for brain cognition, productivity, and clarity. Rectify with Ability and Equanimity: allowing individuals to forgive past traumas, let go of negativity, and reduce the need for constant recognition. Transcendent Healing Influence: focused forgiveness practices lead to unexpected healing. Profound Reach of Forgiveness: a practice that can transcend space and time beyond scientific measurement leading to mutual healing. Anne Lamott Changing Perspective on Surrender: a path towards peace of mind and letting go of weapons rather than a display of weakness. Radical Self-Love and Self-Care: instead of seeking external achievements or possessions, nurture oneself and become attuned to the source of love and peace within. Shifting Focus from Receiving to Giving: fulfillment comes from what is given. Honoring the Elderly: connecting with and learning from them provides insights to enrich life. Spreading Hope: being a source of hope for others creates a collective atmosphere of optimism, thereby reinforcing the shared hope. Lewis Howes Power of Vulnerability: the concept of vulnerability as transformative begins the journey. Challenging False Confidence: false confidence and ego-driven behaviors are defense mechanisms born from past traumas and the need to appear tough and competent.

709. Improve Gut Health: Improve Mental Health...and more! w/ Tina Anderson

Hey, Heal Squad! We hear so much about gut health today and, as you'll hear on today's show, there's a good reason. Gut health vastly affects both our physical health and mental health from rashes and autoimmune diseases to depression and moods. Improving our diet will, of course, boost gut health, but we also hear so much about how probiotics will improve gut health, too. On this episode I sit with Thrive founder, Tiny Anderson, to learn more about gut health and probiotics, in general. We'll uncover how probiotics, the "messenger bacteria," support essential communication between our gut and brain. We discuss how toxins like pesticides and antibiotics compromise gut health, diarrhea, gas, and constipation indicate and even debunk some myths about probiotics. In a world filled with gut-disrupting stressors and chemicals, whether you buy Tina's products or not, this really is a must listen. By the end of the interview, Kev and I were all in on adding probiotics to our diet. Tina was the real deal on and off camera. Listen for yourself. Heal on! Gut-Brain Connection: probiotics support communication between the gut and brain, reduce stress and improve mood. Importance of Vagus Nerve: its' crucial role in gut-brain communication. The mental and physical benefits of targeting this nerve with probiotics. Psycho-Biotics: can help reduce cortisol levels and manage stress and emotional health. Root Causes of Gut Issues: antibiotics, stress, chemicals, and modern lifestyles. Clean Supplements: the importance of choosing research-backed supplements, free from harmful additives, sugars, and unnecessary strains. Fewer Probiotic Strains: Products with fewer strains may be more effective, combining too many strains can lead to interference and unknown consequences. Empowering Personal Health: research, and choose supplements that align with your needs and values. Impactful Results: Probiotics can show positive effects in 30 days, sometimes just a couple of days. Avoid Counterfeit Products: supplements from unauthorized sellers may be ineffective or harmful.

It's been a whirlwind of emotions from the moment I found out we were pregnant, and today I share it all with you! So, picture this: bath time with my little peanut, Athena.

But let's not forget the challenges—I talk about the need for postnatal support and better parenting education. And guess what? Athena was born in her embryonic sac—a rare and magical occurrence! It got me thinking—maybe she's destined for something special, like saving the world or being a spiritual guru! Oh, the possibilities! You know what's also magical? Family and friends! I'm creating a "committee" of loved ones who will be her guiding stars when mommy and daddy are away. We all need that support network, don't we? Through this journey, I've learned some powerful life lessons. Embrace imperfections, folks! And let's talk about gift-giving—skip the stuffed animals and go for something meaningful, like an astrology chart reading! So, my beautiful souls join me as I share the joys, challenges, and life-changing moments of my journey to motherhood. I promise you'll be inspired, moved, and reminded to cherish every moment. Let's savor life and create beautiful memories together. Get ready for a rollercoaster of emotions, love, and lessons to last a lifetime! So much love to you all! Mwah! Travel experiences with a newborn and the importance of having a supportive community to help during the early days of motherhood. The significance of daughter's name, Athena Alexandra, and how it represents strength, wisdom, and spirituality. The baby gift of an astrology reading and what it predicted for Athena. The importance of documenting precious moments of baby through videos and photos, using apps like "One Second Every Day." The love and excitement for bath time and the heartwarming joyful experience for both. Videos of special moments, such as father Costas making breakfast during their time in Milwaukee. The overwhelming love and support from friends, fan and a list of various celebrities. The possibility of having more children in the future and the potential importance of giving daughter, Athena, a sibling.

Regular Guy Friday ep 128. The Regular Guy 4-Part Healing Program

Hey Regular People, we fooled them again. We made it to another edition of Regular Guy Friday! Barbie movie mania, the creative, fun, and poignant depiction of society...and the differing reactions from men and women. What do you do when the #$@! runs downhill? For those battling ailments (and seeking Dragon's Blood), the Regular Guy 4 Part Program (Pro-grim) is revealed. The importance of breath work and breathing in healing. The question you should be asking your therapist. The question only a good therapist can answer. Why young people 'wanting it all now' is nothing new and why, like everything today, the cries are just louder. Men are more likely to be cocky and 'wing it,' while women are more likely to be hesitant and fearful. RGF Bonus: Poojah's Pop Corner: what is Girl Dinner, who is Pinky Baby, what is 'code', and why you need to know to be popular? Bye Betches.

699. Your Ego, Your Imposter | Ryan Weiss

"The only thing that can make us suffer is believing a thought that we haven't questioned." Healer and life coach Ryan Weiss sat in with the Heal Squad to open up on the two wolves that sit on each of our shoulders: one wolf that feeds off love and the other that feeds off fear and how vastly the one we feed dictates the quality of our lives. Ryan shares three steps to retrain your system to combat anxiety, the two basic needs that drive ALL our decisions, AND the two things we need to heal. Ryan covers how our true safety lies within our defenselessness and a revolutionary technique to apply when you feel your buttons are being pushed. Ryan defines what trauma is and how a time travel practice can alleviate the pains traumas leave behind. He discusses 'A Course In Miracles' and how ego is the loudest and first voice we hear. He shares a 4 question process for approaching conflict with others as well as what 'the Imposter Syndrome' is and how to avert it. Too much takeaway for one episode, this Heal Squad two-part episode provides so many healing and self-fulfillment life tools you can apply today toward. Enjoy part two of this two-part show! Many remain stuck in early phases of their spiritual journey. True spirituality goes beyond intellectual understanding.. Shadow work is essential: exploring dark aspects of self. Byron Katie's "The Work”: challenging the thoughts that cause suffering. Triggers offer valuable insights into unresolved issues and wounds. Listening, communicating and being present to foster healing. Success in any field requires hard work as well as self-care and self-reflection. Creating safe spaces for people to share stories and validate emotions is crucial. The ego is an imposter that creates a false sense of identity. Nature offers the opportunity to let go of the ego's illusion of separateness.
