The HER LAB Podcast: YOU. Unfiltered & Alive!
Where bold women 50+ stop performing their lives and start fully living them!
You’ve checked the boxes. Built the life.
But somewhere in the mix of roles, reputation, and responsibility… YOU disappeared.
Welcome to The HER LAB—the place where you return to yourself.
I’m your host, Linda Ann Barber—freedom activator, bestselling author, and unapologetic voice for the woman who’s done shrinking, softening, or sugarcoating.
This podcast is NOT another fluffy reinvention pep talk.
It's NOT another 'better version' of yourself.
It’s where you strip away what’s no longer you—so the truest, most unapologetic version of you can rise!
Here, you’ll:
- Unmask the roles, rules, and survival patterns you’ve outgrown
- Anchor into identity over image—truth over performance
- Reclaim clarity, confidence, and presence as your new power tools
- Live by your own standards—not society’s expiration date
- Say yes to truth, no to guilt, and lead the second half of life on your terms
This is for the woman who:
- Isn’t stuck—but done with the version of herself that no longer fits
- Isn’t chasing more—but ready to be more
- Feels the fire of HER within—and refuses to keep dimming it for comfort
The HER LAB isn’t here to fix you.
You’re not broken.
You’re remembering who you’ve always been!
This is the lab where truth gets louder.
Where freedom becomes your baseline.
And where your boldest, most alive self is finally the standard.

Breaking Free: Unraveling Codependency with Your Past Self
Embark on a transformative journey as we delve into the intricate dynamics of our relationships—with ourselves. Discover the profound impact of codependency on your past, present, and future self.
Today's focus is on codependency, not in the context of external relationships, but within the intricate web of our own existence.
We dissect the three players in your relationship with yourself: the past self, a repository of nostalgia and insights; the ever-transforming current self; and the visionary future self. Unveil the connection between them and understand that your future self thrives on a healthy relationship between the past and present.
Dive into the definition of codependency in the context of self-relationships, exploring the patterns and characteristics shaped by childhood experiences. Uncover the persona, 'shoulds' and the self-critical tendencies that contribute to low self-esteem. Recognize the need for control, caretaking, and the victim state that perpetuates cycles of dependency.
But fear not, as we present a solution: releasing codependency for a co-creative relationship with your past self. Learn the art of making her feel safe, addressing rejection, judgment, and abuse, and finally, allowing her to play her part in the co-creation of your future self.
Join us on this liberating journey from codependency to empowerment. Share in the revelations, resonate with the insights, and take the first step towards unlocking your true potential. Don't miss this episode that promises a roadmap to self-liberation and a profound shift in your relationship with your past, present, and future self.
TAKEAWAYS:
- A fulfilled life has 3 players: past, present and future self.
- A co-dependent life with self has 2 players: past and present.
- Release codependency with your past self by:
- Making her feel safe and then allow her to go play!
- Recognizing that the past is not happening now; its a memory. Don’t choose the memory.
- Ask your CS powerful questions:
- How is holding on to my past self serving me.
- How is holding on to my past serving HER?
