    Melissa is a transformational speaker and best-selling author of the award winning book ‘Hidden Memories. - discovering what’s blocking you from life and life.

    Her book goes through how she turned a harrowing journey of childhood trauma, emotional detachment, and self-doubt into a life filled with purpose, passion, and self-discovery.

    ·      It's important to distinguish between hidden memories and false memories.

    ·      The journey of healing is personal and unique for each individual. Healing can feel overwhelming but is a journey worth taking.

    ·      Recognizing oneself as the common denominator in relationships is crucial.

    ·      Time can distort during painful experiences, affecting healing.

    ·      Vulnerability is a strength, not a weakness.

    ·      Inner child work is essential for true healing.

    ·      Psychedelics can reveal paths, but individuals must walk them.

    ·      The environment during healing experiences greatly impacts outcomes.

    ·      Writing about trauma can be a challenging but liberating process.

    #504: Sport Psychologist Dr. Brent Hogarth on Conquering Self-Criticism. Transforming ADHD Into a Productivity Superpower and Emotional Regulation in High Stress Environments!

    Dr. Brent Hogarth, Psy.D, is a distinguished Clinical and Sport Psychologist and the founder of FlowRx, specializing in high-performance psychology.

    He has worked with elite athletes, corporate executives, and entrepreneurs to unlock their full potential through developing greater mindfulness, emotional regulation and executive functioning.

    With a Doctorate in Clinical Psychology and a Master’s in Sport Psychology, Dr. Hogarth has coached over 1,000 executives at the Flow Research Collective and in his Private Clinical Practice. He authored a groundbreaking dissertation, the "Dark Side of Flow” which highlighted the lesser known negative consequences of Flow-State and how to achieve controlled peak performance.

    He has also finished Full Ironman triathlon and 100-mile WAM100 Ultra Marathon.

    Here are some of the things we talked about in today’s podcast: 

    ·      Conquering self-criticism is the first and greatest victory, as it allows individuals to transcend themselves and achieve peak performance.

    ·      Self-compassion is essential for sustaining a sense of self-transcendence and avoiding the negative consequences of flow state.

    ·      Individuals with ADHD can harness their ability to hyperfocus and enter flow state, turning it into a productivity superpower.

    ·      Finding balance between being well and achieving goals is crucial for overall well-being and success.

    ·      Practicing self-soothing and self-compassion can help individuals navigate the dark side of flow and avoid addiction or burnout.

    ·      Being aware of the ego and cultivating a sense of wholeness can help individuals find peace and contentment while pursuing their goals. Get clear on who you are and what you stand for as the first step towards achieving success.

    ·      Stitch together tiny moments throughout the day to connect with your personal philosophy.

    ·      Practice taking a deep breath, thinking of gratitude, setting an intention, and being present in the morning.

    ·      Reframe anxiety as excitement when performing under pressure.

    ·      Connect with others and foster high-quality relationships to alleviate fear and anxiety.

    #503: Karden Rabin on How Trauma Stores Itself In The Body, The Nature of Repressed Emotions and Practical Techniques for Nervous System Regulation!

    Karden is a Nervous System Medicine Practitioner, co-author of The Secret Language of the Body and co-founder of Somia international.

    He has been in the wellness world for over 15 years as a bodyworker and educator. 

    Although he helped his clients get out of pain, ironically, he began suffering from chronic back pain himself. His pain became ever more debilitating and there were times when he was bed bound, and none of the holistic or western medicine approaches were working.

    That’s when he began studying the psycho-emotional and neurological underpinning of chronic pain and stress based disorders, which led him to clinical training in mindbody disorders and somatic trauma therapies which allowed him 100% heal my debilitating back pain.

    Most of you will recognize his voice from episode 494 – a twosome with fellow nervous system practitioner Jennifer Mann on signs you’re storing unresolved trauma, why it’s okay to be triggered and the secret language of the body. 

    Another great conversation with an incredible human being. 

    Here are some of the things we talked about in today’s podcast: 

    ·      Feeling and acknowledging emotions is crucial for healing and well-being.

    ·      Repressed emotions can manifest as intense emotions when they finally surface.

    ·      Emotional cold plunging, gradually experiencing uncomfortable emotions, can build resilience.

    ·      Narrative and logic play a role in healing, but they must be combined with somatic practices. Understanding the connection between the adult brain, child brain, and animal body is crucial for regulating the nervous system.

    ·      The AIR model (Awareness, Interruption, Redesign) can be used to interrupt stress responses and create new neural pathways.

    ·      Practical techniques like physical movements (e.g., Macho Man Randy Savage) and vocalizations (e.g., voo-ah-ee) can help regulate the nervous system.

    ·      Rewiring neural pathways and creating new relationships with oneself are essential for emotional regulation and personal growth.

    ·      And more.
