The Michelle Chalfant Show Life from the Adult Chair

113: Understanding Borderline Personality Disorder

This week on the show I have a guest to talk to us about one of the most misunderstood and over-used labels I’ve run across: borderline personality disorder. Dr. Robin Arthur is a fantastic and knowledgeable expert who has been working with BPD individuals for years and has managed to offer us the tools we need not only to understand it, but to differentiate it from other personality disorders that are often confused. She’s got tips to share, examples to demonstrate her points and a terrific set of recommendations for...

112: Healing Shame

It’s a little bit of a heavy subject today, but it’s one we have to talk about: Healing our Shame. It’s a subject that crosses my office practically daily in insidious and subversive ways. Shame contaminates our work and our relationships and creates a cycle of binary, either/or thinking. But we can take back our power in our relationship with shame if we work to understand it, relate to it, and use the tools we have that are built into The Adult Chair! Get ready everybody… we’re going to move...

110: Stopping Stress, Anxiety & Overwhelm from The Adult Chair

What do we do when we feel like we just can’t put one more thing on our plates? When the people we love and care about are expecting so much from us, it feels like we’re suffocating? When our career obligations increasing anxiety beyond our ability to cope? I know the feeling, and I know you know the feeling, and today on the show, I’m going to share a recent experience that had me turning to MY Adult Chair. I hope you find taking a seat in your own Adult...

109: Breaking Negative Patterns & Programs

The only way you’re going to heal is to own your life. That’s the overriding message of the show today and it comes thanks to the story of a fabulous client we’ll call “Carolyn.” She’s graciously offered her story for this week’s show as a demonstration of owning your own stuff, and making great strides in breaking the damaging patterns and programs that play over and over in our lives. Thanks to her work with the Chairs, she’s found grounding and hope in moving forward through relationship addiction and more!     LINKS...

108: Stories & Assumptions

We do everything we can to keep ourselves safe and loved in the world. To do this, we look to the past and gather up stories and then based on those stories we project into the future based on assumptions. Living like this creates stress and keeps us out of the present moment and stuck in the Adolescent Chair!   When we learn to become “story busters” and live from a place of fact and truth, we find ourselves seated squarely in the moment and in the Adult Chair.   In this episode, I...

107: Men and Emotions with Ted Klontz

Ted is back! This time we’re kicking it off with a big question about men and emotions, but I guarantee you there are some surprises in store from there! Ted shares his personal journey to understanding, learning to feel and experience his emotions. Along the way, he teaches us some important lessons on men and women and how we experience our emotions in different — but powerful — ways!   Join us!     LINKS & RESOURCES:   Audible This week’s show is brought to you by Audible!

106: How to Help Others to Move Into Their Adult Chair

I get this question all the time: “how to do I get (fill in the blank loved-one here) to get into their Adult Chair?!” I get it. You’re doing all this fantastic work on yourself, you’re sitting in your emotions and learning to move with them, not in spite of them. You’re doing all the great things that you need to do to live authentically yourself … now why won’t other people get on this train with you?   Great question. And I’m going to take on exactly that this week on...
