Hey there, happy Wednesday! This week's episode is coming to you straight from my chilly office nook because, well, it's just too noisy everywhere else. But trust me, it's worth it because I have a special guest who's here to shake things up for all of us struggling with mindfulness and stress management.

Meet Dr. Satya Sardonicus a chiropractor and neurobiology expert who's been through the wringer with her own health challenges. She's here to share how she overcame her symptoms and developed the Neurofascial Flow Method, a game-changer for many, especially those on the autism spectrum.

In this episode, Dr. Satya dives deep into understanding the nervous system, why traditional mindfulness might not be cutting it, and how her method can help bring your body back to a state of balance. She even shares some simple techniques you can try at home to help calm your nervous system and release trauma. Plus, she's got online programs and resources that you can easily access for more in-depth guidance.

If you've been feeling stuck in a cycle of stress and anxiety, this conversation might just be the key to unlocking a new path to healing. So grab your headphones, settle in, and let's explore how to bring some peace and balance back into our lives.

Thanks for tuning in, and a huge thank you to Dr. Satya for sharing her wisdom with us. Stay curious, and I'll catch you next week with more insights and stories!

Hey friends! Happy Saturday! 🎉 I hope your week was as fabulous as you are. Mine was a rollercoaster for my senses, but I ended it with a bang by diving back into ballroom dancing after two years! 💃 My dream? To conquer the Ohio Star Ball. Go big or go home, right?

Today, I'm so excited to bring you the second half of our "Dating Dumpster Fire" series with the amazing relationship coach Valerie Green. In this episode, we're talking about something that's often misunderstood – the dance of masculine and feminine energies in relationships. Trust me, it’s not what you think! 💥

We also dive into how to master the art of compromise during those tricky relationship moments (let’s face it, we all have them). I wasn’t born a great arguer, but over time, I've learned strategies that make all the difference. 🗣️ Valerie brings valuable insights on how these energies are all about choice—it’s not tied to gender, but to the roles we play in relationships. This conversation will help you improve your connection, whether you’re single, dating, or in a committed relationship.

Grab your favorite drink, get comfy, and join us as we chat with Valerie about how understanding these energies can truly transform your love life.
