    Resilience Is Not Bouncing Back: Community and Vulnerability with Dr. Maria Van Der Maaten

    Do you feel you have to get through hard seasons alone? Mind Over Matter explores resilience with Dr. Maria Van Der Maaten, who challenges the idea that being strong means being unbreakable. Learn why resilience looks more like getting knocked down and slowly rising again, how asking for help builds it, and how to start small with community, low expectations and one habit at a time. About the Guest: Dr. Maria Van Der Maaten is a community practitioner who taught a university class on Sustainable Communities and worked in Central America. She grew up in the American Midwest and now lives abroad. Key Takeaways: Resilience is being knocked over and getting back up, not never being affected. Skip the word “bounce back” for people: first sit, then stand, then walk. Asking for help is part of resilience, because shared humanity flows both ways. Do a personal inventory: who do you actually spend time with outside family and work? Keep expectations low and start small. Build one habit at a time. Connect With the Guest: Website: https://mariavdm.com Episode Chapters (approx.): [00:00] When the Ground Shifts: An opening on finding what cannot be shaken. [03:00] Resilience Is Not Unbreakable: Floods, grass and getting back up. [07:00] Why Vulnerability Feels So Hard: Independence, bootstraps and being stuck in the mud. [12:00] Giving and Receiving in Community: Lessons from working in Central America. [17:00] The Invisible Weight We Carry: Where everyday resilience struggles show up. [21:00] A Personal Inventory of Your Circles: Who you spend time with, honestly.

    Breaking Free From Limiting Beliefs: Liz Coleman on Mind Over Matter

    Have you ever told yourself “I’m not good enough” before you even tried? On Mind Over Matter, host Swati and transformational life coach Liz Coleman explore where limiting beliefs come from and why they feel like facts. Liz shares how to question old stories, why mindset work stalls when your body does not feel safe, and how small daily habits help you respond instead of react. About the Guest: Liz Coleman is a transformational life coach who works with people whose lives look good on paper but feel off inside. She offers a free assessment on her website. Key Takeaways: Notice your triggers and ask, “Is this 100% true, or just an opinion?” Many beliefs start in childhood, then we collect “proof” to keep them alive. If your body is not on board, positive thinking alone will not stick. Regulate daily with deep breaths, time outside and enough sleep. Setbacks are normal; noticing them sooner is growth. Swap “I have to” for “I get to” or “I choose to.” Connect With Liz Coleman: Website (free assessment): https://www.lizcolemanlifecoach.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/reallizcoleman Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/lizcoleman31 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lizccolemancoaching Episode Chapters (approx.): [00:00] Welcome to Mind Over Matter: what if your beliefs are not facts?

    Self-Doubt Is a Signal, Not a Flaw: Sharon Ann Rose on Mind Over Matter

    What if the doubt you keep listening to isn’t the truth, just an old pattern on repeat? On Mind Over Matter, host Avik and author Sharon Ann Rose offer a gentler way to relate to self-doubt. Sharon explains why self-doubt is a healthy signal rather than a flaw, how growing up looking outward for answers feeds it, and how naming that inner voice lets you respond with calm instead of freezing or leaping. About the Guest: Sharon Ann Rose is an author and guide based in Portland, Oregon, who supports clients in settling into themselves and making grounded, compassionate choices. She is the author of Faces of the Mother. Key Takeaways: Self-doubt isn’t a flaw; it’s a signal that you’re near an edge. Fear of doubt pushes us to either shrink back or leap recklessly. Looking outward for every answer can make doubt louder. Pause, breathe and feel your feet before you decide. Give your doubt a playful name so it loosens its grip. You don’t have to overcome doubt; just don’t let it lead.

    Overcoming Self-Doubt Through Mental Resilience: Lessons From Horses with Silvia Rizzo

    That inner voice asking “are you ready?” can stop you before you start. On Mind Over Matter, host Swati and Grand Prix dressage rider and life coach Silvia Rizzo bring self-doubt into the light. Silvia shares what horses taught her about clear communication, pressure and honest mistakes, why waiting for certainty keeps us stuck, and how a steady inner structure of values helps you keep moving forward. About the Guest: Silvia Rizzo is a professional horse rider and founder of Hof Marabunta. Drawing on the skills her sport demands, such as clear communication, decisions under pressure and owning mistakes, she now also works as a life coach. Key Takeaways: Self-doubt often grows from fear; separate what you feel from what’s real. You can’t predict the future, so waiting for certainty keeps you stuck. Postponing is still a choice, and it has consequences. Resilience is staying steady when things don’t go as planned. Build an inner structure of values and stay loyal to it. Treat mistakes as information; admitting them builds trust.

    How to Build Resilience Through Small Daily Habits | Jobert E. Abueva

    What if resilience isn't about being strong all the time, but about knowing how to keep moving forward when life doesn't go according to plan? We often think resilient people are those who bounce back quickly, never lose confidence, and somehow remain unaffected by life's challenges. But real resilience is rarely that simple. In this episode of Mind Over Matter, host Niharika welcomes Jobert E. Abueva, author of The Janus Plan: A No-Resolutions Path to Begin Your Year with Intention, for an insightful conversation about building resilience, practicing gratitude, overcoming fear of failure, and creating meaningful personal growth through everyday choices. Jobert explains why resilience isn't something we either have or lack. It's an ongoing practice that develops when we pause, reflect, understand our priorities, and reconnect with what matters most. Drawing on the ideas behind his book, he challenges the pressure to reinvent ourselves through ambitious New Year's resolutions. Instead, he encourages a more thoughtful approach: understanding the patterns of our lives before deciding what needs to change. Together, Jobert and Niharika explore how social comparison, fear of missing out, external expectations, and endless to-do lists can weaken our confidence and distract us from our personal goals. Jobert introduces his simple three-question reflection exercise: What's working? What can I lay down? What's the true lesson here? He also shares a daily gratitude practice that takes less than a minute: writing down three things you're grateful for each morning. From prioritizing responsibilities to allowing ourselves grace when progress feels slow, this episode offers a practical perspective on developing emotional resilience without expecting perfection. Because resilience isn't built by avoiding life's difficulties. It's strengthened through reflection, intentional choices, and the willingness to begin again. About the Guest: Jobert E. Abueva: Jobert E. Abueva is an author, speaker, and workshop facilitator whose work focuses on intentional living, reflection, personal development, and navigating life's transitions. He is the author of The Janus Plan: A No-Resolutions Path to Begin Your Year with Intention, a book that encourages readers to move beyond conventional New Year's resolutions and approach personal growth through reflection, realistic priorities, and purposeful action. Through his writing, TEDx talk, newsletter, blog, and workshops, Jobert shares perspectives on building resilience, gratitude, and creating a fulfilling life. Key Takeaways: Resilience is an ongoing practice. It develops through repeated choices, reflection, and a willingness to adapt. Keep your North Star in focus. Understanding your long-term priorities can help you navigate distractions and unexpected setbacks. Reflection is more useful than constant busyness. Pausing helps you recognize what deserves your attention. Fear of failure and comparison can undermine confidence. External expectations and social media can distract us from our own values. New Year's resolutions aren't the only path to growth. Jobert recommends reviewing your patterns and priorities before setting new goals. Three reflection questions can create clarity. Identify what's working, what to let go of, and what you've learned. Gratitude can become a simple daily habit. Writing down three positive things each morning encourages appreciation and reflection. Progress doesn't require perfection. Patience, self-compassion, and small steps help sustain meaningful change. Connect With Jobert E. Abueva: Author website: Jobert E.

    Resilience Through Uncertainty: Healing Core Wounds with Laurence Walsh

    Life keeps shifting, and certainty can feel out of reach. On Mind Over Matter, filmmaker Laurence Walsh explores what resilience really looks like when you’re struggling, and why it has little to do with powering through. Drawing on her own journey through depression, Laurence shares how feeling your feelings, healing old core wounds, calming overwhelm and reaching out for support help you build steadiness, one obstacle at a time. About the Guest: Laurence Walsh is a Los Angeles writer, director and producer. She made the film Ballroom, which channels 20 years of her own healing, and runs Acer Entertainment, a nonprofit focused on diverse, inclusive, uplifting content. Key Takeaways: Resilience is built obstacle by obstacle, not by powering through. Feel your feelings and own them, rather than placing blame. In overwhelm, calm your body first; deal with the issue later. Repeating patterns often point back to an unhealed early wound. Tell someone; healing isn’t meant to be done alone. Start small: three pages of morning journaling.

    Why You Keep Second-Guessing Yourself in Relationships | Lauren Salaun

    Have you ever made a decision that felt completely right at the time, only to regret it later and wonder whether you can trust yourself again? In this episode of Mind Over Matter, host Sreemedha speaks with Lauren Salaun, a coach who discusses self-trust, relationships, self-worth, intuition and somatic approaches to personal growth. Lauren explores why rebuilding self-trust isn't about making perfect decisions. It's about developing confidence in your ability to make choices, learn from unexpected outcomes and navigate difficult experiences without abandoning yourself. The conversation begins with a question many people struggle to answer: How can you tell the difference between intuition, anxiety and patterns shaped by past experiences? Lauren shares how her Christian faith, prayer, quiet reflection and connection with nature influence her personal approach to discernment. She also discusses why feeling grounded can be meaningful to her when evaluating decisions, while acknowledging that difficult choices won't always feel comfortable. The discussion then turns to modern relationships and a challenging question: Has the language of self-worth sometimes become an excuse to avoid uncomfortable conversations? Lauren argues that healthy relationships require more than knowing your standards. They also require self-awareness, emotional openness, accountability and a willingness to work through ordinary discomfort. She explains how identifying triggers, recognizing relationship patterns and taking small, intentional steps can help people respond differently. The central message is simple: Trusting yourself doesn't mean you'll never make the wrong decision. It means believing you can handle what happens next. About Lauren Salaun: Lauren Salaun is a coach who discusses self-worth, relationship patterns, intuition, personal development and somatic coaching. In the conversation, she describes working with clients to identify recurring patterns, emotional triggers and beliefs that may affect their relationships and decisions. Her approach incorporates body-focused coaching practices and work around self-awareness and the nervous system. Lauren also shares how her Christian faith influences her understanding of intuition, discernment and personal growth. Key Takeaways: Self-trust doesn't require perfect decisions. It includes believing you can learn from choices that don't work out. Intuition, anxiety and old patterns can feel similar; developing discernment takes reflection and practice. Lauren uses prayer, faith and quiet reflection as part of her personal decision-making process. A sense of groundedness can be useful information, but feelings alone shouldn't determine every decision. Gratitude can be practiced during ordinary moments, not just major milestones. Self-worth shouldn't become an excuse for dismissing every uncomfortable relationship experience. Healthy intimacy often requires difficult conversations and honest self-reflection. Maintaining hobbies, friendships and personal wellbeing practices can help you preserve your individuality in a relationship. Identifying emotional triggers is only the beginning; the next step is examining how you respond. Lauren describes using somatic coaching to explore patterns and practice alternative responses. Small, manageable actions can make difficult conversations feel more approachable. Building self-trust is an ongoing process rather than a single breakthrough. Chapters: Why we second-guess ourselves What does trusting yourself actually mean? Learning from decisions that didn't work out Intuition versus anxiety Lauren's faith-based approach to discernment Recognizing groundedness and uncertainty Prayer, reflection and connecting with nature Finding gratitude in everyday moments Self-worth in modern relationships When “know your worth” becomes avoidance Why healthy intimacy requires discomfort Loving someone without losing yourself Identifying relationship patterns and emotional triggers Somatic coaching and changing habitual responses Taking small steps through uncomfortable situations Lauren's closing advice and where to connect Connect with the guest: Website Instagram | YouTube 🎙️ Want to Be a Guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?

    Your Job Is What You Do. It’s Not Who You Are. | Steve Barton

    In this episode of Mind Over Matter, Sreemedha speaks with career transition coach Steve Barton about navigating career change without losing your identity, confidence, or sense of security. Pasted text Steve challenges the idea that you need to have your entire future figured out before making a change. Instead, he encourages people to begin planning while they're still employed—exploring opportunities, updating resumes, developing a side business, or gradually building the next stage of their career. One of the most important distinctions in the conversation is between having a career and becoming your career. A job can provide income, responsibility and status, but Steve argues that none of those things fully define who you are. The conversation goes deeper into fear, limiting beliefs, childhood conditioning and the stories people carry about money, security, success and what they're “supposed” to do. Steve also introduces ideas from his Game of Ten process, encouraging people to observe limiting thoughts rather than automatically identifying with them. For anyone sitting at work wondering, “Is this still the life I want?”, this conversation is an invitation to examine what you're holding onto—and what might become possible if you allow yourself to change. About Steve Barton: Steve Barton is a career transition coach who works with people navigating professional and personal change. His approach combines career transition with personal-development concepts involving self-awareness, limiting beliefs, identity, boundaries and what he describes as higher-self or consciousness-based work. Steve also discusses his Game of Ten process and offers a downloadable book explaining his framework through his website. Key Takeaways: You don't need your entire career transition figured out before beginning. When possible, start preparing for your next chapter before leaving your current source of income. Family responsibilities, finances and personal circumstances mean there is no single correct way to change careers. You are not your job. You have a job. Professional identity can become limiting when we allow a title or career to define our entire sense of self. Childhood and family conditioning can influence our beliefs about work, money, security and success. Steve encourages people to notice limiting thoughts rather than automatically treating them as truth. Career dissatisfaction can spill into relationships and emotional wellbeing. Ask yourself whether you genuinely love or feel aligned with the work you're doing. Coaching, therapy and personal-development work can provide support during periods of transition.

    Resilience Is a Practice: Willie Blake on Getting Back Up

    What do you do when quitting starts to feel like the easier option? On Mind Over Matter, host Shraddha talks with resilience coach Willie Blake about what actually keeps people moving through uncertainty and setbacks. You will learn why resilience is less about never failing and more about getting back up, and why changing your body first can shift your mindset faster than thinking your way there. About the Guest: Willie Blake is a resilience and mindset coach based in Idaho who helps people break through limiting patterns like procrastination and perfectionism. He is the author of the ebook Break Free, which names twelve common limitations and how to move past them. Key Takeaways: Resilience is doing the right things for a long time, not never struggling. When a goal feels impossible, your brain quietly stops trying to solve it. Changing your physical state, even a short walk, can shift a stuck mental state fast. Failure is a single moment, not a label. One setback does not define your whole story. Keep moving forward in small steps. Momentum matters more than perfection.

    Overcoming Mental Barriers With Nervous System Care: Gazit Chaya Nkosi

    Ever feel your mind say no before you have even tried? On Mind Over Matter, host Sayan and coach Gazit Chaya Nkosi explore overcoming mental barriers by working with the body, not against it. You will learn how the vagus nerve shapes fear, why calming down alone is not enough, and why struggling in a dysfunctional system is not a personal failing. About the Guest: Gazit Chaya Nkosi is a coach in Massachusetts and founder of The Rooted Co-op. Their work centres on the autonomic nervous system and the vagus nerve. Key Takeaways: Mental barriers are often body-based fear responses, not "just in your head." A fear can be valid even when acting from it is not your best option. Support your nervous system with breath, humming, gentle movement or your senses. Make decisions once you feel settled, not mid-reaction. Reactive in one place? Something there needs to change. Reactive everywhere? Check sleep, food and movement. Thriving in a dysfunctional system is not yours alone to fix. Lean on community.

    Changing Negative Self-Talk and Inner Stories with Geoff Grant

    Do you keep telling yourself "I am just not that kind of person"? On Mind Over Matter, host Sreemedha and coach Geoff Grant explore how negative self-talk shapes our choices and relationships. You will learn where limiting inner stories come from, how to question them, and how to write a new narrative you can sustain. About the Guest: Geoff Grant is a consultant and coach in Massachusetts. He spent 25 years as a caregiver and brings that lived experience to conversations about mindset and self-talk. Key Takeaways: Ask of any inner story: is this true, or a story I am telling myself? Limiting narratives often grow from past experience or the voices around you. Be mindful of what you read, watch and listen to. Journal the story you want, including what you want and do not want. Language can widen or narrow the aperture of your life. Consistency beats commitment. Repeat the new story until it holds.

    Breaking Through Mental Barriers: Fear, Gratitude and Faith with Michael Muccio

    What if the walls holding you back are more like fog than stone? This episode of Mind Over Matter is for anyone stuck in fear, insecurity, or old thinking that outward success hasn't fixed. Author Michael Muccio shares how teachability, deliberate gratitude, and repeating new truths until they replace old ones helped him move past fear, and why he believes connecting to a greater source makes change possible. About the Guest: Michael Muccio is a Sarasota, Florida-based author and former corporate hospitality executive who was mentored by Zig Ziglar. He writes from a Christian perspective, and his latest book is the novel Evil's First Breath. Key Takeaways: Mental barriers grow stronger when we assume we already have the answers. Stay teachable. Practice gratitude on purpose: your next breath, your home, clean water, food. Repetition rewires thinking. Say a new truth until it's your first thought each morning. Fear takes many forms: failure, success, criticism, ill health. Naming it is the start. Real change often comes from connecting to something greater than yourself.

    Gleaning Joy Through Inner Radiance: Kate Heartsong on Mind Over Matter

    What if joy was never about avoiding pain, but about growing through it? The host talks with speaker and coach Kate Heartsong about why sadness and joy can't really exist without each other. Kate shares a simple breathing technique for calming down in the moment, why acknowledging a hard emotion has to come before releasing it, and a personal story about her daughter's long recovery that took her a decade to fully accept. About the Guest: Kate Heartsong is a speaker, coach, author, and Reiki Master based in Denver. She is the founder of Joyful Radiance and the author of Deeply We Are One and Humanity's Cry for Change. Key Takeaways: Joy and sadness can't really exist without each other, they define one another. Acknowledge a hard emotion before trying to release it, don't just stuff it down. A slow breath in for three counts, out for seven, can calm you quickly. Acceptance doesn't mean liking what happened, it means no longer fighting what already is. Speaking kindly to yourself in the mirror is a simple way to raise your mood.

    Breaking Free From Self-Limiting Beliefs: Anu Verma on Mind Over Matter

    What if the belief holding you back was never actually yours to begin with? Host Niharika talks with coach Anu Verma about where self-limiting beliefs really come from, and how to tell a genuine limitation apart from a belief that's just familiar. Anu shares why self-awareness requires real honesty with yourself, a simple exercise for picturing your future self if a pattern continues, and why the discomfort of change is often a sign you're finally moving in the right direction. About the Guest: Anu Verma is a strategic intervention life coach trained through Tony Robbins' Unleash the Power Within program. She helps people identify and unlearn self-limiting beliefs picked up from their parents and early environment. Key Takeaways: Children copy their parents' behavior far more than they listen to their words. Ask if a long-held belief actually makes you happy, not just whether it's familiar. Picturing your future self if a pattern continues shows whether it's really serving you. Discomfort during change is often a sign of growth, not proof something is wrong. You can't change a belief you haven't first honestly identified and accepted.

    Building Resilience Through Uncertainty With Boundaries Coach Barb Nangle

    If uncertainty makes you want to hold everything together, this episode is for you. Boundaries coach Barb Nangle joins Mind Over Matter to explore what resilience actually looks like when life does not go according to plan. Barb shares how internal safety, healthy boundaries, and emotional resilience help you stay with yourself through uncertainty, why setbacks do not erase your progress, and one practical way to move through transitions without pretending everything is fine. About the Guest: Barb Nangle is a boundaries coach, speaker, and podcaster, and the founder of Higher Power Coaching and Consulting. She hosts the podcast Fragmented to Whole and works primarily with professional women who say yes when they want to say no and who put others ahead of themselves. She is based in New Haven, Connecticut. Key Takeaways: Resilience is not about never falling apart; it's the willingness to keep going and ask for help. Building internal safety means staying with your own values and priorities even when someone else is upset. Just because a thought feels true or a feeling registers as danger doesn't mean it actually is. Identify your top five values and use them as a compass for decisions during uncertain transitions. A setback does not erase your progress; noticing it and trying again is a sign resilience has grown. Repetition turns uncomfortable new boundaries into comfortable habits over time.

    Mental Resilience and Self-Respect: Kirana Sidin on Choosing a Life Aligned With Your Values

    If you keep chasing approval and still feel off, this conversation is for you. Author and coach Kirana Sidin joins host Niharika on Mind Over Matter to talk about what mental resilience actually means, and why it has less to do with never falling and more to do with choosing to come back. Kirana unpacks the quiet cost of external validation, why self-respect is the real foundation of a stable mind, and one simple, practical way to start living by your own values instead of everyone else's expectations. About the Guest: Kirana Sidin is an author, certified life coach, and speaker based in Jakarta, Indonesia. She is the author of Cheers for a Good Life, and her coaching work focuses on helping people gain clarity so they can make better decisions. Key Takeaways: Resilience is not staying strong at all times; it's the ability to step back and still choose to return. A lot of mental strain comes from chasing external validation instead of checking in with your own values. Weak self-respect often shows up as difficulty saying no and a constant need to feel needed. Slow down and ask yourself what's truly essential before reacting to what life or others expect of you. Notice what you keep returning to even when no one is watching; that's often a sign of what matters. Progress isn't linear. Coming back stronger, slowly and intentionally, matters more than never stepping back at all.

    Resilience Isn't a Character Flaw: Dr. Jess Armine on Root Causes

    What if struggling to cope isn't a personal failing, but a sign that your body simply has less capacity to draw on right now? In this episode of Mind Over Matter, host Swati talks with Dr. Jess Armine, a healthcare provider of nearly 50 years and founder of The Center for Bio-Individualized Medicine, about why resilience has more to do with physiology than willpower. Dr. Jess walks through why comparing yourself to people who seem to "handle things better" misses the full picture, how a specific illness or life event can quietly lower your capacity to cope, and why setbacks don't erase the progress you've already made. It's a compassionate reframe for anyone who has ever wondered, "why can't I just handle this like everyone else?" About the Guest: Dr. Jess Armine has worked in healthcare for nearly 50 years, starting as a nurse and medical technician before becoming a Registered Nurse in 1978, serving in the Army in emergency and critical care, and later earning his medical degree in 1986. He developed the concept of bio-individualized medicine, an approach focused on identifying the physical root causes behind mental and emotional symptoms. Key Takeaways: Resilience isn't a fixed personality trait or a measure of your character, it reflects your body's current capacity, which can shift based on physical factors outside your control. Comparing yourself to someone who seems more resilient isn't a fair measure, everyone's physiological history and starting point are different. A noticeable drop in your ability to cope often follows a specific event (an illness, an infection, a major stressor), and tracing back to what changed can offer useful clues. Basic body function, digestion, nutrient absorption, and cellular energy can meaningfully influence mental and emotional capacity over time. A setback doesn't erase your progress, it's often a temporary dip that resolves as you keep supporting your body's ability to recover. Look for practitioners who take the time to understand your full history and treat you as an individual, rather than relying only on symptom-based labels.

    Transforming Mental Patterns Into Personal Power: Gaylen Wilson on the Monument Method

    Our minds run patterns we rarely question, until we learn where they come from. Heart transplant survivor and relationship coach Gaylen Wilson joins host Swati to explore how understanding the primal brain can change how we respond to life. Gaylen shares the Monument Method, a simple practice he and his wife Heather use to interrupt conflict before it escalates, and how the same principle helped him overcome decades of addiction and fear. ABOUT THE GUEST: Gaylen Wilson is a heart transplant survivor, certified relationship coach, and founder of the Monument Method Institute. He is the author of The Monument Method series and the Monument Hearts books, and has been sober for 20 years. KEY TAKEAWAYS: Recognize when your primal brain, not your logical brain, is running the show. Agree on a shared sacred word with a partner to pause conflict before it escalates. Eye contact can signal safety to the nervous system and calm fight-or-flight fast. Repair a pattern early and often; the best repairs are the ones you never need to make.

    Unlearning Self-Doubt Through Stillness and Inner Truth with Ellen Edmondson

    Self-doubt isn't a fixed trait, it's a story shaped by outside noise. Ellen Edmondson believes that story can be unlearned. Ellen joins her host to explore where self-doubt really comes from, why quiet daily check-ins matter more than big dramatic shifts, and three simple questions that can reconnect you with your own inner truth. About the Guest: Ellen Edmondson is the author of A Place of Love & Light and an intuition coach who helps people quiet outside noise and reconnect with their inner guidance. Her second book, a deeper dive into this work, is coming out later this year. Key Takeaways: Self-doubt often comes from letting external noise drown out your own inner truth. Two people can face the same experience and walk away with completely different stories about themselves. Even 2 to 3 minutes of daily stillness can help you reconnect with what feels true. Growth can feel awkward at first, like writing with your non-dominant hand, and that's normal. Three grounding questions can guide you: what feels true, what's my soul whispering, and what's kindest for me right now. Connect With the Guest: Website: https://www.ellenedmondson.com/ which connects to her book, coaching, and free workshops. Episode Chapters: [00:00] Welcome and Meeting Ellen Edmondson: introducing tonight's conversation on self-doubt [03:00] (approx.) The Biggest Misconception About Self-Doubt: it's learned, not who you are [08:00] (approx.) Where Self-Doubt Really Comes From: family, media, and comparison culture [14:00] (approx.) Recognizing the Signs: fear, anxiety, and disconnection from your own voice [19:00] (approx.) Three Questions for Getting Quiet: reconnecting with your inner truth [25:00] (approx.) Why Growth Feels Awkward at First: and why that's not a red flag [30:00] (approx.) Staying Consistent: intentions, accountability, and small daily choices 🎙️ Want to Be a Guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?

    Redefining Resilience and Authentic Success at Any Age with Chad Betz

    Real resilience isn't about never breaking down, it's about how you get back up. Chad Betz has spent his career studying exactly that. Chad joins host Nalga to unpack why setbacks aren't failures, how sunk-cost thinking keeps us stuck in careers and relationships that no longer fit, and why it's never too late to redefine what success looks like. About the Guest: Chad Betz is the author of An Authentic Success: You Aren't Too Old and It's Not Too Late, along with several other books on resilience and reinvention. He helps people navigate leadership, burnout, and career transitions. Key Takeaways: Resilience isn't the absence of struggle, it's what you do when struggle shows up. Sunk-cost thinking keeps us investing in relationships and careers that no longer serve us. Comfortable negativity is still a habit, and habits can trap us in place. Journaling small daily reactions helps you notice patterns before they take over. A setback can launch you further than you'd have gone otherwise, if you stop trying to return to where you were. Connect With the Guest Website: anauthenticsuccess.com, with links to his social media and free content. Episode Chapters: [00:00] Welcome and Meeting Chad Betz: introducing today's conversation on real resilience [03:00] (approx.) The Biggest Misconception About Strength: why life isn't a straight path [08:00] (approx.) Choosing Who You Share Your Struggles With: not everyone is equipped to help [14:00] (approx.) Sunk-Cost Thinking: why we keep investing in what isn't working [19:00] (approx.) Recognizing the Signals: the quiet cues that a change is needed [24:00] (approx.) The OODA Loop: observe, orient, decide, act [29:00] (approx.) Bouncing Back Further: reframing setbacks as a bow pulled back before launch 🎙️ Want to Be a Guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?
