    Ep 49: The Imperfect Healing Journey
    Dec 10 2023

    I used to think that my healing journey needed to look a certain way and have a definite outcome. That eventually--no matter how long it took--I needed to rise out of the ashes like a phoenix then tell the world about it. 

    Sitting with the realness of my unpredictable, and sometimes messy healing journey has taught me that there is no model for what healing should look like. You are an original. Your journey will be a unique one. And by releasing the expectations around who you ought to become and by when that needs to happen, perhaps that creates room for some unexpected, imperfect beauty to unfold.

     

    In this episode, I share about:

    • The ways in which our society creates “models” for who or what we should be

    • How those models impact our healing journey

    • The liberation that becomes possible through being present with your own journey

    • Accessing the unique wisdom that wants to emerge through you

  • Ep 48: Suffering In Silence

    Ep 48: Suffering In Silence
    Sep 6 2023

    Feeling as though you're suffering in silence is perhaps one of the most common experiences after going through a loss. Silence and solitude might be exactly what you need in the earlier stages of your healing journey. And at some point, the silence or isolation may no longer support your healing. 

     

    In this episode, I share:

    • When silence and solitude are in service of our healing and 
    • When silence and solitude can lead to our decline
    • Some simple tips for bringing "movement" and release to your body and being\

    And here are the Grief playlists I referenced:

    • Good Grief
    • 1_Let Me Be
    • 2_Finding Peace
    • 3_Rise Again

  • Ep 47: The Dangers of the Spiritual Bypass

    Ep 47: The Dangers of the Spiritual Bypass
    Aug 19 2023

    The "Spiritual Bypass" is often intended to be a reminder that we're spiritual beings having a human experience. It can also be used to dismiss or diminish our very real human experiences, which leads to us holding on to hurt instead of processing and releasing it. 

     

    In this episode, I share:

    • How the Spiritual Bypass showed up in my experience 
    • How it can be harmful if it's showing up in yours 
    • Why healing also needs to occur through the body
    • And exploring a sense of purpose after a loss

    Ep 45: Are You Waiting for Your Comeback?
    Feb 25 2023

    Hi Beloved - Have you been waiting for your comeback? To "uplevel" your life or quickly have another baby to  show that your life after loss is better than before? I share the imbalances in our culture that are at the root of this, how it showed up in my own experience after loss, and why inner healing is necessary.

  • Ep 43: Healing Relationships with Compassionate Communication

    Ep 43: Healing Relationships with Compassionate Communication
    Aug 14 2022
    I consider myself a life-long learner, so it means a lot when I say that Compassionate Communication or Nonviolent Communication (NVC) has been one of the single most important practices I’ve learned. As my teacher, Steve Torma, puts it, Compassionate Communication isn’t just a tool for communication but a shift in consciousness.    I’ve referred Compassionate Communication to clients of mine because it becomes a game-changer for ANY conversation or relationship. And today, we have the pleasure of hearing Steve Torma share more about Compassionate Communication and how it can benefit you and your relationships.  We discuss:  What Compassionate Communication or NVC is and some of its many benefitsWhat violence looks like in conversations (it’s not just physical!)How the “Dominator Culture” we’re socialized in shows up in our self-talk and relationships Why men will likely grieve differently from womenThe patterns/imbalances that may become prevalent in relationships between men and womenHow Compassionate Communication can help create inner peace, as well as bring empathy and healing to relationships    Steve Torma’s Bio:  Steve (he/him) was born and raised on a family farm in Ashtabula, Ohio, and is a 25-year member of Earthaven Ecovillage. His ancestors are Hungarian and French Canadian.   Steve co-founded an intentional community in Ohio in 1980, where he lived until joining Earthaven Ecovillage in 1996. At Earthaven, he co-founded a thriving neighborhood, was president for three years, and has taught Nonviolent Communication for twelve years. In addition to his passion for community, Steve co-managed a natural foods co-op for 10 years, ran his own traveling bookstore business for over 20 years, and now teaches Nonviolent Communication and other relationship and community building skills through The REAL Center, which he co-founded in 2009.    As a lifelong peace, justice, and ecology educator and activist with over 40 years of community living, Steve has sought to integrate personal and social transformation in his own life, in the communities where he lives, and in the larger society. His passion for integral living and thinking has led him to study and experiment with a wide range of spiritualities, psychological systems, and social theories as they relate to creating a more just and sustainable world.   Steve has taught Nonviolent Communication for a variety of intentional communities, organizations, and regional gatherings, including Celo Community, The Mountain Retreat Center, Firefly Gathering, Southeast Permaculture Gathering, Organic Growers School, Kinnection Campout, LovEvolution Gathering, Compassion Camp, and many others.   Steve’s Website: http://therealcenter.org/ Seve’s Email: steve@therealcenter.org     The Resources We Reference: Book: The Chalice & The Blade by Riane Eisler: https://rianeeisler.com/the-chalice-and-the-blade-our-history-our-future/ Books: Nonviolent Communication by Marshall Rosenburg (and related books through PuddleDancer Press): https://www.nonviolentcommunication.com/shop/  The Mankind Project: https://mankindproject.org/ NVC Asheville: https://www.nvcasheville.com/   Earthaven Ecovillage: https://www.earthaven.org/ —   If you’re curious as to what support might look like for you on your journey, here are some next steps to explore: 1.
