In this episode of Love & Live Abundantly, Ilona and Dr. Bill unpack how anxiety can shape-shift into anger or depression — often based on past trauma or learned behavior. 🧠💥

They explore “transmogrification” (yes, like Calvin & Hobbes!) and share simple daily practices like meditation, music, and gratitude to shift emotional patterns. 🙌

It's real talk, science-backed, and full of laughs — including Bill’s depression playlist vs. Ilona’s self-care rituals. 🎧✨

💡 Healing isn’t always complicated. It’s about doing the simple things — consistently.

🎙️ Tune in now, and let’s get emotionally regulated together.

In this episode of Love & Live Abundantly, Ilona Poka and Dr. Bill Mock keep it real about nervous system freak-outs — why they happen, what’s normal, and how to calm the chaos inside your body when old trauma buttons get pushed. 😵‍💫🧠

Ilona shares real stories (like getting triggered just hearing a work phone ring 📞😬) and walks us through simple tools like hand over heart breathing and imagining a personal bubble shield 🛡️ to reset your nervous system in under 60 seconds.

She and Bill (with some fun back-and-forth!) talk about:

• Why fight-or-flight is a gift AND a burden

• How to spot when your reaction is about the past, not the present

• What "dysregulation" really means (and why it’s NOT always a bad thing)

• The secret to rewiring your body’s "false alarms" so you can live calmer, stronger, and freer ✨

Bonus: They even get into how smells (like mildew! 👃) can secretly trigger deep emotional memories — and how you can finally disconnect from old wiring that doesn’t serve you anymore.

Healing = possible. Calm = learnable. Peace = your new superpower. 🌿

In this powerful and real conversation, Ilona Poka and Dr. Bill Mock dive deep into the truth about boundaries—why we need them, how trauma messes with them, and how to lovingly set them with friends, family (yes, even your mom!), and partners.

They break down the three boundary types—porous, rigid, and semi-permeable—and explain how to create emotional safety while staying true to yourself. Ilona shares real-life stories about saying "no" with love and how honoring your gut can save your relationships (and your sanity). Bill brings in wisdom from decades of counseling, shining light on codependency, communication breakdowns, and the power of "I statements."

You’ll walk away from this episode understanding how to:

• Say yes to yourself without guilt

• Avoid resentment by setting clear expectations

• Replace people-pleasing with honest communication

• Practice "healthy selfishness" so you can truly show up for others

This one’s for anyone who’s ever felt drained by doing too much for others—or silenced their own needs to avoid rocking the boat.

🎧 It’s time to live and love abundantly... with boundaries that protect your peace.
