Guest Introduction: In today’s inspiring episode, we’re joined by Adelajda Child, a certified Psyche-K instructor who has dedicated her life to helping others achieve profound personal transformation. After facing burnout and life challenges in her late 20s, Adelajda discovered Psyche-K—a unique mind technology that reprograms limiting beliefs by accessing the subconscious mind. Through muscle testing, whole brain states, and energy work, she now guides individuals in overcoming subconscious barriers, creating lasting change, and embracing self-healing and self-discovery.

Episode Introduction: What if you could easily rewire your limiting beliefs in just minutes? This episode dives deep into Psyche-K, a modality designed to unlock the true potential of the subconscious mind and transform deeply rooted patterns. We’ll explore practical ways to communicate with the subconscious, achieve whole brain states, and break free from beliefs that no longer serve you.

Top 3 Takeaways:

1. You Can’t Think Your Way Out of Subconscious Blocks: Real change happens when you shift limiting beliefs at the subconscious level (25:34).

2. Whole Brain State Equals Empowerment: Achieving a whole brain state fosters balance between logic and intuition, enabling more confident decision-making (32:17).

3. Change Can Be Effortless and Lasting: With Psyche-K, transformations happen quickly and don’t require repetitive reinforcement—once it’s shifted, it’s done (40:12).

 

 

Main Topics

1. Reprogramming the Subconscious Mind with Muscle Testing (12:45)

“Psyche-K allows you to communicate directly with your subconscious mind through muscle testing.” Explanation: Muscle testing is a powerful method to access the subconscious, where deeply ingrained beliefs reside. By identifying whether you subconsciously believe in a specific affirmation or desire, this technique helps pinpoint hidden blocks. Shifting subconscious beliefs ensures that efforts toward goals are aligned at both conscious and subconscious levels, increasing the likelihood of success.

2. The Whole Brain State and Its Benefits (32:17)

“A whole brain state balances the analytical left brain with the intuitive right brain, creating harmony and trust in your decisions.” Explanation: A whole brain state integrates both hemispheres of the brain, fostering a balanced approach to challenges. It reduces overthinking, enhances emotional intelligence, and builds the inner confidence necessary to act without second-guessing. This state allows for clearer thinking and greater alignment with one’s true purpose.

3. Instant, Lasting Change Without Repetition (40:12)

“Once the shift is made at the subconscious level, there’s no need to keep repeating affirmations or meditations—it’s done.” Explanation: Unlike other modalities that require ongoing practice, Psyche-K delivers rapid and lasting transformation by working directly with the subconscious. This eliminates the need for constant reinforcement, freeing up mental energy for living fully and authentically.

Notable Quote:

“You cannot think your way out of your thoughts… it requires the courage to test what you truly believe and shift it at the root.”

With decades of experience in medicine and wellness, Dr. Hammer introduces practical strategies to help individuals build a foundation for lasting happiness and well-being.

 

 

Episode Topic:

In this episode, we delve into the physiological and emotional effects of chronic stress and how intentional mindfulness practices can rewire the brain for happiness. Dr. Hammer’s GAIN method offers a simple yet powerful framework to cultivate gratitude, acceptance, intention, and non-judgment in daily life.

 

 

Three Key Takeaways:

1. Gratitude is the foundation for happiness and stress relief.

2. Chronic stress can be reduced by practicing acceptance and intentional breathing.

3. Non-judgment fosters resilience and reduces emotional reactivity.

 

 

Main Topics: 1. The Role of Gratitude in Happiness (Timestamp: 10:20)

Explanation: Gratitude shifts focus from challenges to abundance, reinforcing positivity and reducing the impact of stressors. Cultivating gratitude enhances well-being by countering the brain's natural negativity bias. Notable Quote: "You can't imagine someone being happy and ungrateful—gratitude is intrinsic to happiness." Impact: Gratitude provides a mental reset, emphasizing what truly matters and alleviating stress's hold on emotions.

 

 

2. Acceptance as a Stress Management Tool (Timestamp: 18:45)

Explanation: Acceptance neutralizes suffering by reducing resistance to pain or discomfort. It allows individuals to process challenging emotions without amplifying their impact, fostering emotional clarity. Notable Quote: "Suffering equals pain times resistance. If we reduce resistance, we can diminish suffering." Impact: Practicing acceptance empowers individuals to confront difficulties with calmness, fostering resilience and emotional strength.

 

 

3. Non-Judgment and Rewiring the Brain (Timestamp: 30:10)

Explanation: Releasing judgment—of oneself, others, or circumstances—frees mental energy for constructive action. This practice rewires the brain to respond rather than react, building emotional resilience. Notable Quote: "Let go of judgment. The world is as it is, and we are simply who we are." Impact: By embracing non-judgment, individuals reduce emotional reactivity, creating a sense of inner peace and balance.

 

 

Closing Thoughts:

By focusing on gratitude, acceptance, intention, and non-judgment, individuals can rewire their brains for positivity and build a life of resilience and well-being. Start small, commit to the practice, and watch the transformation unfold.

3. Embracing imperfection and new experiences fosters growth and confidence.

 

 

Main Topics with Timestamps

1. Modeling Calmness and Mindfulness (Timestamp: 06:10)

Explanation: Demonstrating calmness in your own behavior can influence others to mirror the same energy. This principle highlights the importance of embodying mindfulness rather than just instructing it. When calmness is practiced regularly, it becomes a shared experience. Notable Quote: "If I embody calm and mindfulness, my children naturally find it within themselves without me saying a word."

2. Creating Tools for Emotional Regulation (Timestamp: 15:25)

Explanation: Simple practices like taking deep breaths, journaling, or listening to calming meditations can empower individuals to handle challenging emotions without feeling overwhelmed. These tools encourage self-regulation in a non-intimidating and accessible way. Notable Quote: "It’s amazing to watch energy settle with just a deep breath—it’s our superpower to come home to ourselves."

3. Turning Down Outside Noise to Honor Inner Voices (Timestamp: 28:45)

Explanation: Focusing on what truly brings joy and fulfillment helps reduce the pressure of external expectations. This practice can nurture confidence and self-awareness, allowing individuals to align with their own values and passions. Notable Quote: "Turn down the outside chatter and turn up the voice that lights you up—it’s the key to feeling whole."

Guest Introduction:

In this empowering episode, Dr. Mary Giffara, an internationally renowned therapist, author, and speaker, shares her expertise on creating and sustaining fulfilling relationships. With years of experience helping couples restore connection, Dr. Giffara introduces key strategies from her book, Two by Two on the Arc: Four Strategies for Lasting Love. Her insights illuminate how personal growth, emotional regulation, and intentional communication can transform relationships into a thriving partnership.

 

 

Main Takeaways:

1. Embrace Self-Awareness to Navigate Emotional Triggers

2. Leave Space for Individual Growth Within Relationships

3. Operate on Multiple Levels: Logic, Emotion, and Sensation

 

 

Main Topics: 1. Understanding Emotional Triggers (Timestamp: 12:45)

Explanation: Emotional triggers are often rooted in past experiences, not present relationships. Recognizing when reactions stem from unresolved feelings enables individuals to respond with intention rather than emotion. This practice fosters healthier interactions and reduces repetitive conflicts. Notable Quote: "Someone does something, and it triggers something in me that predates them—maybe my mother, my last partner, or an earlier experience." Impact: By addressing the root cause of emotional triggers, individuals can take responsibility for their reactions and avoid misplacing blame, paving the way for deeper connection.

 

 

2. Leave Space for Love and Growth (Timestamp: 24:10)

Explanation: Successful relationships depend on creating space for individuality. A healthy dynamic allows each partner to grow independently while maintaining a shared bond. Over-fusion—when one partner subsumes the other’s emotions or thoughts—stifles this balance. Notable Quote: "Space for you to be you, space for me to be me, and space for us to be us." Impact: This approach respects autonomy and mutual growth, fostering an environment where both partners can thrive emotionally and intellectually.

 

 

3. Engage All Three Levels of Communication (Timestamp: 36:20)

Explanation: Dr. Giffara emphasizes the importance of operating on all three levels of communication: logical reasoning, emotional expression, and physical sensations. Neglecting any of these dimensions creates imbalances in how partners relate and respond to one another. Notable Quote: "Leave space to meet reason, emotion, and sensation. Don’t mix them up." Impact: Integrating these elements of communication ensures holistic connection and prevents misunderstandings rooted in incomplete interactions.

 

 

Closing Thoughts:

Dr. Giffara’s strategies challenge the notion that love alone is enough to sustain a relationship. By focusing on self-awareness, mutual growth, and comprehensive communication, individuals can transform how they engage with their partners and themselves.

3. Joy Is Sustainable: Resilience practices replace burnout with enduring happiness and growth.

 

 

Main Topics with Timestamps:

1. Nervous System Regulation for Emotional Intelligence (15:25) Calmness starts with self-awareness and breathing, which can shift the fight-or-flight response. Recognizing the body’s signals leads to better decision-making and emotional regulation.

   • Quote: "The only autonomic function we can control is breathing. Start there, and you calm the nervous system."

   • Explanation: Practicing conscious breathing allows for emotional clarity, creating space to respond rather than react impulsively, even in high-stress environments.

2. Overcoming Workplace Loneliness (32:10) Virtual and hybrid work environments have amplified isolation. Building intentional connections combats loneliness and revitalizes workplace culture.

   • Quote: "Workplace loneliness isn’t just inconvenient—it’s a direct barrier to career growth and emotional well-being."

   • Explanation: Addressing loneliness fosters creativity, collaboration, and satisfaction, making intentional check-ins and shared activities essential for maintaining a sense of belonging.

3. Resilience and the Power of Acceptance (47:50) Resilience is built gradually by accepting current emotions and taking small, deliberate steps toward growth. Joy comes from embracing what is, rather than pushing through with force.

   • Quote: "Resilience isn’t about toughness; it’s about recognizing your limits and gently expanding them."

   • Explanation: Acceptance reduces resistance and opens doors to change. This practice nurtures sustainable joy, replacing burnout with lasting fulfillment.

 

 

Notable Quotes:

• "Dopamine hits from stress are fleeting; joy is sustained when resilience becomes a habit."

• "Acceptance is not passive—it’s the gateway to meaningful action and growth."

• "The workplace can be a sanctuary of joy when leaders foster safety, wellness, and learning."

3. Self-Worth Drives Connection: Confidence in one’s value encourages healthier dynamics.

 

 

Main Topics with Timestamps:

1. Passive Aggression and Resentment in Relationships (18:05) Clear communication about roles and expectations prevents the build-up of silent frustrations. Acknowledging effort, whether in taking out the trash or showing affection, builds goodwill and reduces scorekeeping.

   • Quote: "Expectations are resentments waiting to happen."

   • Explanation: Without clear boundaries, partners unknowingly set themselves up for conflict. Expressing gratitude and proactively defining roles strengthens mutual respect.

2. Non-Negotiables and Relationship Dynamics (31:42) Establishing core values early in a relationship creates a foundation for trust and growth. Gillis emphasizes the importance of choosing a partner who shares your commitment to personal development.

   • Quote: "The guy I want to be with values learning and growing for himself."

   • Explanation: Prioritizing growth-oriented partners cultivates mutual support and ensures both individuals thrive, reducing the likelihood of stagnation.

3. The Role of Self-Worth in Online and Offline Dating (47:19) The Gini coefficient analogy reveals how perceptions of inequality manifest in dating apps. Confidence in self-worth and uniqueness cuts through the noise of competition.

   • Quote: "We teach others how to value us by how we value ourselves."

   • Explanation: Embracing self-worth reshapes interactions, fostering authentic and fulfilling connections in the face of modern dating challenges.

 

 

Notable Quotes:

• "Believing your partner can is the first step to true collaboration."

• "Generosity in spirit keeps a relationship thriving, even in the face of challenges."

• "Resentment comes from unspoken expectations—communication is the cure."

In this episode, Sarah Walton, a dynamic business coach and sales expert, unpacks the powerful connection between money mindset and personal growth. Raised in a low-income household, Sarah knows the unspoken rules and financial beliefs that shape our lives. She brings her signature no-nonsense coaching strategies to reveal how women in business can break free from scarcity, embrace abundance, and cultivate confidence in sales and life.

2. Money is Infinite; Time is Finite: Recognizing this truth can revolutionize decision-making and time management.

3. Confidence Drives Perceived Value: Abundance flows when you confidently own your worth and offerings.

 

 

Main Topics with Timestamps:

1. Unspoken Rules and Scarcity Mentality (05:15) Sarah explains how unspoken childhood rules—like "money is stressful" or "more is better"—can unconsciously control decisions. She emphasizes that these beliefs aren’t truths but inherited mindsets.

   • Quote: "Unspoken rules run deep, but identifying them allows us to rewrite our stories."

   • Impact: Realizing how these unexamined beliefs operate can unlock a sense of freedom and control over your financial choices.

2. Money vs. Time: Infinite and Finite (23:42) The misconception that time is abundant and money is limited is flipped. Sarah highlights that money flows endlessly in the economy, but time is a resource you can’t replenish.

   • Quote: "Billions of dollars circulate daily—it’s about participating in the flow, not fighting it."

   • Impact: This mindset shift encourages smarter investments in your time and energy, empowering you to focus on high-value activities.

3. Perceived Value and Sales Confidence (41:08) Owning the value of your work is key to thriving in sales. Sarah reframes selling as a transfer of enthusiasm rather than a pushy transaction.

   • Quote: "When you trust your value, you can confidently ask for the raise or increase your prices without guilt."

   • Impact: Seeing sales as an opportunity to share value transforms fear into empowerment, fostering authenticity in every transaction.

Guest Introduction In today’s powerful episode, we’re joined by Marisa Peters, founder of BCM and an advocate for colorectal cancer awareness, and David Thau, a dedicated fundraiser and speaker for young-onset cancer initiatives. Both Marisa and David are cancer survivors who are transforming their experiences into a mission for change, focusing on the importance of early detection, health conversations, and self-advocacy. They share insights on managing health risks, knowing the symptoms, and taking proactive steps to protect yourself and your loved ones.

Episode Topic The Life-Saving Impact of Early Detection and Family Health Advocacy in Preventing Colorectal Cancer

Top Three Takeaways

1. Early detection through screening is essential; colonoscopy remains the gold standard.

2. Knowing your family health history can help in taking preventive actions.

3. Self-advocacy is vital—trust your symptoms and push for answers.

 

 

Main Topics with Timestamps & Explanations

1. The Importance of Early Detection and Screening (Timestamp: 10:20) Marisa and David stress that screening methods, especially colonoscopies, are crucial for catching colorectal cancer early. While there are several testing options, a colonoscopy provides the most comprehensive peace of mind, allowing for the removal of precancerous polyps. This proactive approach can prevent cancer from developing in the first place and significantly increases the chances of effective treatment if cancer is detected.

Notable Quote: “The best test is the one you’ll actually get, but the colonoscopy is the gold standard because it removes polyps and provides the ultimate peace of mind.”

2. Family Health History as a Guide to Preventive Care (Timestamp: 18:45) Marisa highlights the importance of knowing family health history, as it can indicate when to begin early screening. For families with a history of colorectal cancer, starting screenings before the typical age is essential. Family history isn’t just informative—it’s potentially life-saving, setting a health roadmap that can guide future generations toward prevention and proactive health decisions.

Notable Quote: “Our family health history lays out a map, highlighting potential health risks we can address early on with the right screening.”

3. Self-Advocacy: Trusting Symptoms and Pushing for Proper Testing (Timestamp: 28:30) David shares his experience with symptoms that were initially overlooked and misdiagnosed. He emphasizes that recognizing persistent symptoms and advocating for oneself are critical steps in preventing late-stage diagnoses. Self-advocacy involves not dismissing symptoms and requesting specific tests, even when initial results are inconclusive. Knowing your body and speaking up can make all the difference in early diagnosis and successful treatment.

Notable Quote: “If you know something isn’t right, keep pushing until you get answers. Self-advocacy can be the difference between an early or a late-stage diagnosis.”

 

Guest Introduction In today’s episode, we’re joined by Joanna Kleinman, a transformative psychotherapist, leadership coach, and the founder of the MIND Method. Joanna is passionate about helping people silence the inner critic and unlock their potential through self-awareness and personal growth. Her unique approach, blending coaching with neuroscience and spirituality, empowers individuals to move beyond self-doubt and thrive in their lives.

Episode Topic Dethroning the Inner Critic: How Self-Compassion and the MIND Method Lead to Lasting Transformation

Top Three Takeaways

1. Recognizing and understanding the inner critic is the first step toward change.

2. Self-compassion is essential for breaking free from the cycle of self-criticism.

3. The MIND Method provides a structured approach to building mental resilience and emotional strength.

 

 

Main Topics with Timestamps & Explanations

1. Identifying the Inner Critic and Its Role in Self-Sabotage (Timestamp: 7:10) Joanna explains that the inner critic is not just a voice of negativity but a pattern of thought that has developed from early life experiences, ingrained to protect yet often limit growth. Recognizing this critical voice as separate from one’s true self creates a pathway to personal freedom, allowing for choices that align more closely with one's authentic desires and values.

Notable Quote: “The inner critic is that automated voice in your head. Recognize it, question it, and it loses its control over you.”

2. Embracing Self-Compassion to Move Beyond Limiting Beliefs (Timestamp: 16:30) Joanna emphasizes the power of self-compassion as a tool to dissolve self-judgment and break free from the need for perfection. She describes how self-compassion fosters a growth mindset, reducing the grip of self-criticism and making room for real, lasting change. Embracing kindness towards oneself allows for mistakes without feeling defined by them, promoting resilience and continued personal growth.

Notable Quote: “When you treat yourself with compassion, you’re allowing space for mistakes without being defined by them.”

3. Applying the MIND Method for Mental and Emotional Resilience (Timestamp: 28:45) The MIND Method, Joanna’s signature framework, helps individuals dismantle the inner critic and reprogram their minds with empowering beliefs. Through practical steps, this method equips individuals with the tools to redirect their thoughts and take control of their emotional experiences. This structure builds resilience and confidence, setting the stage for a future less affected by past patterns and more aligned with personal purpose.

Notable Quote: “The MIND Method lets you dethrone your inner critic and replace it with beliefs that support your growth and happiness.”

Guest IntroductionOn today’s episode, we’re thrilled to have Thais Gibson, a leading expert in attachment theory and emotional healing with an impressive background in psychology and personal development. Thais has transformed the lives of thousands by helping people understand and heal their core wounds, leading them towards secure, fulfilling relationships. She’s here to share invaluable insights into self-awareness, relationship advice, and effective communication and boundaries.

 

Top Three Takeaways

1. Attachment styles are learned, not fixed, and can be reprogrammed.

2. Core wounds drive most of our fears in relationships, but they can be healed.

3. Healthy boundaries and communication are essential for creating secure connections.

1. Reprogramming Attachment Styles (Timestamp: 8:15) Thais explains how attachment styles, often considered fixed, are actually learned patterns developed through childhood experiences. She emphasizes that by understanding and rewiring these patterns, one can cultivate a secure attachment, regardless of previous conditioning. This shift allows for deeper, more authentic connections, as people move away from reactive behaviors to more responsive and compassionate ways of engaging.

Notable Quote: “We’re not born with an attachment style. It’s something conditioned through life experiences, and with the right tools, it can be reprogrammed.”

2. Healing Core Wounds for Relationship Freedom (Timestamp: 19:05) According to Thais, core wounds—such as fears of abandonment, unworthiness, and rejection—are the root of most relationship struggles. These wounds, once identified, can be intentionally healed through targeted reprogramming, enabling individuals to step into relationships from a place of wholeness. Healing these deep-seated wounds empowers people to engage without fear or excessive self-protection, freeing them to experience joy and trust in relationships.

Notable Quote: “Core wounds act as lenses through which we view relationships, but they don’t have to dictate our future. Healing them opens the door to freedom and happiness.”

3. Establishing Boundaries and Practicing Self-Awareness (Timestamp: 28:45) Thais discusses the importance of setting boundaries and cultivating self-awareness to create secure, lasting relationships. She highlights that clear boundaries prevent over-attachment or avoidance behaviors, creating a foundation for open, honest communication. Establishing boundaries allows people to express their needs without fear, helping maintain a balance of closeness and independence in relationships.

Notable Quote: “Boundaries are the bridge between love and self-respect, allowing relationships to flourish without compromising personal integrity.”

 

 

This episode offers powerful tools and insights for anyone on a journey of personal development. Understanding attachment theory, healing core wounds, and setting boundaries can transform relationships into secure, nurturing connections. Through Thais’s expertise, listeners are inspired to create healthy, meaningful bonds rooted in self-awareness and emotional intelligence.

Summary

 

In this episode of Life Check Yourself, Marni Battista engages in a profound conversation with Jamal Javangi, exploring the depths of human experience, the quest for survival, and the journey towards thriving. They discuss the cultural influences that shape our understanding of loneliness and suffering, the four core survival drivers that motivate human behavior, and the illusion of happiness tied to material possessions. The conversation emphasizes the importance of being present and finding peace within oneself to create a fulfilling life. Jamal shares insights on how to navigate internal conflicts and the significance of starting with being rather than doing to achieve true abundance and happiness.

 

Takeaways

 

• Everyone wants to survive, but ultimately, we all want to thrive.

• The four core survival drivers are safety, freedom, significance, and love.

• Material possessions do not equate to happiness; it's about the feelings they represent.

• To achieve peace, we must confront our internal conflicts rather than avoid them.

• True fulfillment comes from understanding what we really want to feel.

• Starting with being allows for a more abundant and fulfilling life.

• The mind often misleads us into thinking external achievements will bring internal happiness.

• We need to learn how to resource our inner selves for true abundance.

• The journey of life is about creating a peaceful existence for ourselves and the world.

• Awareness of our thoughts and feelings is crucial in navigating life's challenges.

 

The Four Core Drivers of Human Fulfillment (Timestamp: 10:25)

Jamal describes the four essential drivers—safety, freedom, significance, and love—as foundational to human happiness and thriving. When these are unmet, individuals often find themselves feeling “stuck,” seeking external validation that never fully satisfies. Embracing these core needs from within fosters a deep sense of purpose and resilience, helping one build a fulfilling life from a place of inner security.

We all need to feel significant, free, safe, and loved. Without these, we’re still in survival mode.

 

Moving from Survival Mode to True Freedom (Timestamp: 22:10) Modern society has made survival relatively easier, freeing up the space to ask deeper questions about meaning and purpose. Jamal points out that although basic needs are met, a subtle, internal “survival mode” persists, pushing many to seek fulfillment through external measures. By redefining freedom as a choice in mindset and actions, one can shift from scarcity to abundance, empowering them to engage more joyfully and purposefully in life.

We’re not here just to survive. When you start with ‘being,’ work and creation become joyful acts, not survival mechanisms.

 

Finding Inner Peace by Confronting Inner Conflicts (Timestamp: 35:18) True peace, Jamal explains, is not the absence of conflict but the ability to sit with it, understanding and accepting one’s fears and insecurities without letting them dictate actions. This conscious embrace of uncomfortable emotions dissolves the inner resistance that often blocks personal growth. By facing these parts of oneself with compassion, one creates a sustainable foundation for happiness and fulfillment.

In order to find peace, we have to get present with our inner conflicts, not avoid them. That’s where true harmony begins.
