  • Mindfully Managing ADHD, Autism, and Anxiety with Medical Expert Dr. Raun Melmed
    2024/09/13
    We're constantly learning more about the world of neurodiversity and how to appreciate that every person's brain works differently. Yet, given the pressure to conform—to perceive, process, and utilize information in the "right" way—millions of people feel as if they don't fit in (or can't cope in)—today's world. Fortunately, we are making great strides in understanding, embracing, and encouraging respect for neurodivergent individuals by emphasizing that "different" does not equate to "deficient" or "broken." Those who are not given the individualized attention and support they deserve often suffer from constant self-doubt, a lack of confidence, and poor self-esteem. When we learn to see beyond a diagnosis and tune into each individual's unique needs, mental and physical health tend to thrive. Join Dr. Carla Manly and medical expert Dr. Raun Melmed who will be sharing his expertise on ADHD, autism, anxiety, and neurodivergence.

  • Struggling with Aging or Ageism? How to Embrace a Vibrant Outlook at Every Age with Expert Lindsey McDivitt
    2024/09/06

    There was a time in the not-too-distant past when aging was honored and seen as a natural part of life. Yet in today's world, we've come to fear aging as if it's a dark monster we must fight in order to be loved, seen, and respected. The culture of eternal youth eats away at our well-being on many levels. It creates an increasingly consumptive and expensive demand for youth-fostering surgeries and products. And for young and old alike, the youth culture feeds mental health issues such as low self-worth, depression, anxiety, and isolation. It also fosters ageism and self-ageism, issues that affect us all. The less we honor and embrace every stage of life, the more we marginalize parts of ourselves and our communities. How can we create the understanding, unity, and changes we need? Join Dr. Carla and ageism expert Lindsey McDivitt—writer and advocate for intergenerational understanding—as they explore the importance of joining together to combat ageism.

  • Become Your Best Self--and a More Attuned Parent--by Healing Childhood Trauma with Expert Dr. Robyn Koslowitz
    2024/08/30

    If your childhood was traumatic, you might expect yourself to have forgotten or moved past the difficulties and challenges you endured. Yet, from my clinical and life experiences, it is clear we never recover from childhood trauma – or any other form of it – unless we purposefully engage in mindful healing. We are told that "time heals all wounds." But in reality, those wounds only worsen when they are marginalized or ignored. Unresolved childhood issues are unfortunately carried into adult life, where they negatively impact relationships and are transmitted intergenerationally through parenting and other formative relationships. Can self-work be the cure?


    Join Dr. Carla Manly and trauma expert Dr. Robyn Koslowitz for an uplifting journey into the vital realm of healing from childhood trauma. Through the lens of attachment theory, dive deeper into key issues such as secure attachment, insecure attachment, self-discovery, trauma, PTSD, self-work, post-traumatic parenting, and the healing power of personal growth.


    Please note that this episode contains sensitive trauma-related material. Listener discretion is advised.


    Note: If you or someone you know needs immediate support, please call your emergency services. In the US, 24/7 help is available by calling "911," "988" (Suicide and Crisis Hotline), or SAMSA (Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration) at 1-800-662-HELP (4357).
