From Pissed Off to Poised- A Podcast for Busy Women Professionals
This podcast is designed to help overcommitted women, physicians, and
professionals move from being reactionary—often feeling anger and
resentment—to becoming more intentional and responsive. The goal is to
help you enjoy life while still getting everything that needs to be done,
done.
In this show, we’ll dive deep into how to shift from reacting to responding
when it comes to anger, while recognizing that the first step to making a change is building our awareness. I’ll also share practical tips on how to say "yes" only to what truly matters to you and create a calendaring system that works—one that honors your commitments to both yourself and others.
As a retired pediatrician, the co-founder of Virginia iSpine Physicians, and
a trauma informed certified mindset coach I have navigated multiple career transitions in life and am still evolving as I apply these concepts in other areas with grace and vulnerability. I want to share what I have learned over the years so that you can start to create more peace in your day to day life,
as you begin to shift from reaction to response.

Ep 17: Rekindling Connection with Emotional Intelligence, with Dr. Michael DePalma
Last week, I shared practical strategies to deepen the connection with your life partner. We looked at how the need to be right has a cost in your relationship, and I shared the practice of changing your interactions with your partner by visualizing the unconditional love you have for them.
Today, I’m thrilled to have my husband, Dr. Michael DePalma, join me for an honest and inspiring conversation about how we transformed our relationship by understanding and redirecting our reactive patterns. You’ll hear how we shifted from letting external stressors spark conflict to using them as opportunities to strengthen our bond—and even turn disagreements into playful moments of connection.
Let’s face it: relationships can be challenging, especially when life feels overwhelming. But there’s a reason you chose to share your life with your partner. Together, we’ll explore how small shifts in mindset and communication can reignite that spark and bring you closer than ever.
Tune in for a heartfelt and actionable episode that will leave you inspired to take the first step toward a more fulfilling relationship.
