In this podcast (episode #343) and blog, I speak to behavioral scientist and NYT bestselling author Jon Levy about his new book, building meaningful connections, developing community, achieving what is important to us, the nature of human influence, and more! In his incredible book You’re Invited: The Art and Science o

In this podcast (episode #342) and blog, I discuss two great ways you soothe and calm the mind and brain and build up your mental resilience. When it comes to our mental health, we want to be proactive. We want to build up the resilience of our minds so that, in the moment, we have an “insurance policy” to fall back o

In this podcast (episode #341) and blog, I talk about ways to reset and reconnect after a fight or argument. Arguing with friends, family members or loved ones is inevitable. It’s impossible for us to get along all the time, especially when we spend a lot of time with certain people, such as during the holiday season.

In this podcast (episode #340) and blog, I talk about the difference between codependency and being codependent. In my previous podcast on relationships, I talked about how to handle changing relationships, or how there may be moments when you must end a relationship and just walk away. For this podcast, I want to talk

It is that time of year again! If you are looking for the perfect gift for that special someone this holiday season, I have you covered: Ned’s Full Spectrum Hemp Oil is extracted from USDA Certified Organic hemp plants, grown by an independent farmer named Jonathan in Paonia, CO. Indeed, all their products are science-

In this podcast (episode #339) and blog, I talk about passive-aggressive behavior: what it is, how it can affect us, and how to manage it. Passive aggressiveness is a form of indirect, hostile communication. People who are passive-aggressive generally mask their anger or frustration instead of being honest about their

In this podcast (episode #338) and blog, I talk about our inner critic: what it is, and how to manage it. The inner critic is that voice inside your head that is regularly telling you that you are not good enough or that you can’t do something—it constantly judges you and finds you wanting. There’s a lot of advice out

In this podcast (episode #337) and blog, I am going to talk about the stigma surrounding men’s mental health and what we can do to address the issue on both an individual and collective level. Mental health affects all kinds of people because mental health is a human issue. However, mental health struggles are commonly

In this podcast (episode #336) and blog, I want to talk about something I am sure you have experienced at least once in your life: FOMO, or the fear of missing out. This is a mindset that is similar to the “if only, could have, would have” mindset I discussed in a previous podcast and blog. It can quickly steal our sen

In this podcast (episode #334) and blog, I speak about the link between anxiety, stress, and decision-making. Often, when we are in an anxious state, we cannot seem to make a decision, or, if we do, we end up making a choice we regret. I know this has happened to me many times! What should we do when this happens? Is

In this podcast (episode #332) and blog, I talk about those thoughts that tend to steal our peace and affect our mental health, such as “would have”, “should have” and “if only”. Like a spider spins a web, we can “spin” webs around the thoughts we build, which form our mindsets. A mindset is a perspective, or how we v

In this podcast (episode #330) and blog, I discuss boundaries: what they are, why they are important, and how to create healthy boundaries in your life and relationships. There is so much information out there about boundaries, especially on social media these days. But even though there is a lot of great infographics
