Helping Children to Better Process Anger and to Realize their True Personal Worth. [Ep. 790]

2/18/2025
Processing and understanding our emotions and seeing our inherent value are two things we strive to achieve in our lifetime. Some of us are still struggling to master one or both of these goals. As adults many of us aren’t taught this by our family or parental unit because they were not taught it by their parents. The younger we are able to grasp these concepts and implement them the happier we will be with ourselves and in life. Joining me on today’s show is Sharmilla Fassbender, counselor, mother of four, and children’s author. Sharmilla has written three inspiring children's books, each carrying a meaningful lesson to help kids navigate life’s challenges. Through her storytelling, she empowers children to embrace growth and resilience. Her latest book, Fantastically Me!, encourages kids to embrace their uniqueness, while her upcoming release, Angry? That’s Ok!, teaches kids that anger is an emotion, but also explores healthy ways to express and manage it. Sharmilla’s books offer valuable insights not just for children but for adults as well. Tune in as we discuss her work and the powerful lessons it imparts.

How to Clearly Identify and Recognize a Malignant Narcissist. Ep: [787]

1/29/2025
We hear the term narcissist thrown around a lot in daily discussion. However not all narcissism and narcissists are created equal. Some people possess a few narcissistic tendencies while others seem to display all signs and symptoms. However their is a more extreme form of narcissism that makes the regular brand of narcissism look like child’s play. A Malignant Narcissist is a narcissist that demonstrates others signs and symptoms that an overt or covert narcissist does not. This type of narcissism goes far beyond being self-absorbed or grandiosity. Under the surface, their thoughts and actions can have a calculated and sinister approach, causing significant hurt and pain to those around them. Understanding the malignant narcissist is crucial for setting boundaries and safeguarding ourselves. By identifying their traits and gaining a deeper understanding of their behavior, we empower ourselves to navigate these challenging relationships. When it comes to the malignant narcissist, knowledge truly is power.

When Excuses Becomes Toxic: When to Draw the Line. Ep.[786]

1/22/2025
Empathy is a wonderful personal quality, caring for others goes hand-and-hand, and giving others the benefit of the doubt goes a long way with respect to specific situations and circumstances. We can acknowledge other people's pain and life stressors. However at what point does making excuses for others actions and choices become unhealthy? Are we unintentionally enabling unhealthy behaviors? During this podcast, I fully discuss and explain when making excuses crosses the line into unhealthy territory. Recognizing when these excuses hold us back from doing what’s best for us or doing what is best for someone else. The more we stop making excuses for our actions, the less likely we are to make excuses for others. There's a fine line when excusing specific behavior becomes unhealthy, both for the people in our lives and in our own life. It’s also important to remember that we cannot judge others’ behavior without first looking at our own. Understanding this balance allows us to maintain healthier relationships and live more authentically.

Are you the black sheep or the golden child of your family? Your role within the family can significantly shape your experiences and relationships. What parental dynamics led to this structure? As we age, how does this dynamic change? As young children, we often don’t realize whether we are the golden child or the black sheep, but over time, the division between siblings grows, along with feelings of resentment.

Navigating Uncertainty: Coping with Aging Parents and Life's Challenges. [Ep.775]

9/30/2024
Our thoughts often revolve around where we are, what we're facing, and the uncertainties of the future. We may wonder what will happen to us, our friends, or our aging parents. Fear of the unknown can creep in, especially if we're an only child or only responsible adult child with all of these responsibilities. It can feel overwhelming. How do we navigate these challenges? How do we process and respond to them? There are no right or wrong answers, there are no directions. We’re all just trying to figure it out as we go, hoping for the best. In today’s show, I want to discuss how we process these situations, compartmentalize our emotions, and move forward when a parent, family member, or friend isn’t listening to us or considering our thoughts and opinions. What can we do to put things back into perspective when we are trying to help our aging parents, family members, or friends and they don’t want to take our advice? We need to learn to be okay with that. We can offer guidance and support but can't force anyone to see things our way.

Identify & Understand Love Bombing: Protect yourself from Fake Love. [Ep.774]

9/12/2024
Love bombing and real love are two completely different things. The scariest part of being love bombed is that most of us don't know we're being love bombed. On this episode of the podcast, I’ll address what is love bombing, the phases of love bombing, the signs and symptoms of being a victim of love bombing, the relationship patterns of a love bomber, and why we fall into the trap of believing this is true love and a perfect relationship. In the beginning, of a relationship that begins with love bombing, we believe we have found the ultimate relationship. We get caught up in the whirlwind of the “romance,” believing we have found the love that is only seen in romantic films. I want to help you to identify love bombing before you get extremely hurt mentally, emotionally, and spiritually.

5/30/2024
When we are raised in an environment with a parent who has the signs and symptoms of BPD, we do not realize the impact that it has on our daily lives. As children, we often had no idea what was going on with mom or dad. One minute everything seemed great and the next minute it felt as though we were living amid an emotional roller coaster. It was always confusing, wondering which version of them we would get on any particular day. As children, this is a very difficult situation to live with, no one explained to us what was going on. In the process, it felt like we had lost our childhood to their emotions, constantly trying to change into what we thought they wanted us to be. On today’s show, I am going to talk about what it is like to be raised by a parent who has signs and symptoms of BPD. What it is like to deal with this as an adult.
