Ep. 27 I Had A Lumpectomy (Ductal Papilloma). This Isn't A Medical Story.

I paid $15,000 for a program my intuition told me to walk away from. And when it came time to say it wasn't working - I didn't ask for a single dollar back. That wasn't a financial decision. That was a pattern making decisions on my behalf. The...
Ep. 20 Nobody Abandoned Themselves This Week | The Turtle Costume (What Self-Abandonment Actually Looks Like in the Small Moments)

Ep. 13 When AC/DC Influences Your Kid (What We Pass Down Beyond the Wounds)

Ep. 9 The Day I Backed Into A Parked Car...again. (Understanding Emotional Triggers and Nervous System Patterns)

Ep. 8 What Cardboard Mailboxes Taught Me About Regulation (Nervous System Regulation Through Play)
