The Michelle Chalfant Show Life from the Adult Chair

40: Finding the Motivation to Change with Dr. Ted Klontz

We all get lost. It’s perfectly natural as human beings to get stuck in the forest, to get scared of the dark, to get lonely, and feel our courage drift away. As our guest today so rightly shares, “we have to get used to the weirdness of being human beings.” That’s when we’re able to find the strength, the motivation, the courage to make a change in our lives and approach the world with strength. I’m so excited to introduce you all to Dr. Ted Klontz. Ted is a psychologist based...

38: Who’s Sitting in My Adolescent Chair?

Just because we might be considered adults chronologically doesn’t mean we’re always acting our age! That’s the psychological trick of the Chairs, and this week I hope to give you all some clarification. Our goal here is to uncover where we are at any given moment, which chair we’re using to relate to the world, and get to know that part of us free from judgment. Our Adolescent Chair is here to protect you. Get to know it, thank it, then let it know that you’ve got this and can move...

37: Dr. Dodge Rea — Introducing the GRACE Sequence

It is with great pleasure that I introduce to you Dr. Dodge Rea, the originator of The GRACE Sequence. This is one of the most powerful, easy-to-use techniques for emotional relief that I have found. I am always on the hunt for tools to help get us unstuck and in our Adult Chair — the GRACE Sequence is one of those tools. Let’s face it, life can be hard. We get stuck and can fall victim to the pitfalls of life that lead to emotional pain from which we can’t get...

36: Mindfulness and Sitting in Our Negative Emotions

You can’t heal negative emotions. They exist, and we all move in and out of them throughout our days, weeks … our whole lives. But with an understanding of the power of mindfulness, it is possible to come to terms with our negative emotions, and to find peace, solace, and understanding. This week on the show, we’re talking about both the internal and external tools you can use to sit in your negative emotions free of judgment and shame. Join us for this conversation, and let’s all invite our emotions...

33: Mastering Forgiveness

Forgiveness is a deeply personal thing. But whether you label yourself as a “forgiving person” because you’re afraid of conflict in the adolescent chair, or living in an authentically forgiving place in the adult chair is determined first and foremost by whether we’re allowing ourselves to feel our feelings! So many of us are afraid of our feelings, afraid of the way our emotions move through us. This week on the show, we’re talking about how to see inside ourselves from the adult chair, to move clearly into the truth,...

32: Returning to Your Seat of Power

Some days, it just feels like the world is conspiring against you. These are the days that shake our confidence, our sense of peace, our ability to relate to others — they’re the worst! The trick to living in The Adult Chair is not developing some magical skill to erase these days from your life. It’s developing the skill to recognize when you’ve been knocked out of The Adult Chair, and to move yourself back into it to rediscover your Seat of Power! Today on the show, I’m sharing my...

31: Learning to Date Yourself

It’s February! With all the talk of love in the air leading into this Valentine’s Day weekend, we thought it just the right time to share our own spin on romance: learning to date yourself! This is such an important concept, and it challenges one of the fundamental marketing messages of romantic partnership: the truth is, we don’t find a partner to complete us! That’s a trap! Don’t fall for it! This week, we’ll tell you all about it, and give you the tools you need to date yourself first,...

30: The Code Author Tony Burroughs on Intention and The Highest Good

Envision Only Positive Outcomes So says Tony Burroughs this week as we continue our conversation on intentionality. Tony’s work is all around intentions; he’s co-founder of The Intenders of the Highest Good and one of his greatest gifts to all of us is the practice of the Intenders Circles, now a global community of people joining together to envision a better world, and find greater personal alignment in it. We’ve put a bunch of links to Tony’s work below, including his original — and inspirational — book, The Code. Check it...

29: The Power of Intention

It’s January! With the turn of the New Year comes all sorts of promises we make to ourselves as we look to make a change in our lives. From losing weight to desires of greater mindfulness, resolutions are signposts that we’ve crossed another year off the calendar. Painful truth: Resolutions don’t work! After 30 days, 75% of our resolutions have been long forgotten. In this podcast, we discuss what does work, INTENTION! More than the typical fly-by-night ideas of the mind, intentions come from deep within us and they stick. Join...
