  • Energy Leaks & Hidden Rage Within Empaths

    Energy Leaks & Hidden Rage Within Empaths
    Dec 8 2025
    Introduction: In a world that often demands our energy and attention, it's crucial to understand where our emotional and mental resources are being depleted. In a recent podcast episode, host Pip delves into the concept of energy leaks, sharing personal experiences and insights that resonate deeply with many of us. This blog post will explore these themes, offering practical advice on identifying and addressing energy leaks in our lives. Main Content: Understanding Energy Leaks Pip opens the discussion by sharing a personal setback: a podcast episode that couldn’t be saved due to technical issues. Instead of viewing it as a failure, she reflects on the importance of accepting circumstances as they are. This leads into a broader conversation about energy leaks—where we lose our emotional and mental energy without realizing it. The metaphor of a bank account is particularly effective; just as we keep track of our finances, we should also monitor our energy intake and output. The Empath Experience As an empath, Pip shares her journey of understanding that being sensitive and caring does not mean neglecting her own needs. She emphasizes that empaths can set boundaries and express emotions like anger without feeling guilty. This realization is empowering, highlighting that taking care of oneself is not selfish but necessary for overall well-being. Pip urges listeners to evaluate their relationships and identify those that may be draining rather than nurturing. Recognizing Your Energy Sources One of the key points Pip makes is about recognizing where our energy comes from. Are we surrounding ourselves with supportive friends or toxic individuals? She recounts a difficult decision to let go of a long-time friend, illustrating the emotional toll that misaligned relationships can take. By identifying energy leaks, we can make conscious choices that allow us to fill our cups instead of depleting them. Embracing Authenticity Pip emphasizes the importance of being authentic in our expressions and actions. Whether she feels inspired to record a podcast without makeup or chooses to present herself differently on other days, the core message remains: authenticity is key. Showing up as our true selves, regardless of societal pressures, helps us connect with others on a deeper level. Pip encourages listeners to embrace their unique journeys and to share their stories, as this authenticity is what fosters genuine connections. Conclusion: Key Takeaways Pip's insights on energy leaks provide a valuable framework for anyone looking to reclaim their emotional energy. By assessing our relationships, embracing our authentic selves, and recognizing where our energy flows, we can cultivate a more balanced and fulfilling life. Remember, it's essential to prioritize self-care and set boundaries to prevent energy depletion. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

    Embracing the Overwhelm: Finding Balance in Life's Roles
    Nov 19 2025
    In this heartfelt episode of The Calm Codes Podcast, Pip explores what it truly means to feel overwhelmed in our fast-paced, role-filled lives. As a mother, wife, stepmom, daughter, and sister, she shares how the weight of responsibility can quietly build — not because we lack love for our people, but because we’re human. Through a deeply reflective moment, Pip describes a vision of a woman curled up, not in distress, but simply craving a moment of solitude. This episode is a gentle reminder that we all need time alone to recharge our spirits, reset our nervous system, and reconnect with ourselves. Pip shares how to find small, sacred pockets of peace in everyday life — from a quiet corner with a book to a few breaths of stillness — and how films like The Shift illustrate the reality that sometimes all we need is space. Using Internal Family Systems (IFS), Pip explores how acknowledging our inner parts — the overwhelmed one, the achiever, the caretaker, the tired one — helps us understand our reactions and soothe the parts that need compassion. This episode is for anyone who feels stretched thin, pulled in many directions, or silently craving a moment to breathe. It’s a reminder that the dishes can wait. Your inner world cannot. Take a breath. Tune in. And let this episode help you return home — to calm. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

  • The Ego's Desire for Drama

    The Ego's Desire for Drama
    Nov 14 2025
    In this conversation, Pip discusses the dichotomy between chaos and calm, emphasizing the importance of choosing peace over drama. She highlights how our ego often craves chaos, while our higher self seeks tranquility. Additionally, Pip underscores the significance of affirmations and the impact of our self-identification on our emotional state. Takeaways When we choose chaos, it's feeding our ego. Our ego wants chaos, wants drama, wants all that negative stuff. Our spiritual soul wants calm, peace, love, all those higher emotions. Choosing calm is a conscious decision. What you say after 'I am' is very important. Affirmations shape our reality and self-perception. Higher emotions lead to a more fulfilling life. Mindfulness helps in recognizing our choices. We can shift from chaos to calm with intention. Personal growth involves understanding our inner dialogue. Connect with Pippa here. Much love and gratitude. Pippa x Learn more about your ad choices.
