51: Find Your Authentic Self at the Heart of Your Enneagram

The Enneagram provides us a method for understanding our own personality in terms of our relationship with the world and our true selves. This week on the show, I sit down with our friend Ramona Reid of Nashville Center for Alternative Therapy for an introduction to the Enneagram and the benefits that come with understanding how the Enneagram can work for you. Ramona is a skilled intuitive Enneagram coach and offers us truly inspirational insights today!   To learn more about the Enneagram, make sure to click through the links below, and...

50: The Art of Surrender

When we surrender, we’re choosing to let go of control of a situation. It’s consciously letting go of the ego and drive to dominate a situation with trust that the future will unfold as it is meant to. This is a position of peace, not trauma, relief, not stress.   This week on the show, Pete kicks us off with a story of his own surrender, losing a decade of his own professional photography work and finding a path to releasing control, finding relief from the panic attached to the outcome, and...

49: Am I a Fraud? Imposter Syndrome & You!

I am a Fraud!   There. I said it out loud.   Does it sound familiar? For many of you, it probably does. The voice of the imposter is a voice that lives in all of us. It comes from an instinct that is thousands of years old, one designed to protect us and keep us safe in our communities. Today, it can make us want to run and hide.   Today on the show, we talk about what it means to face the imposter inside us, and what we can do to find strength in...

48: Are you an empath?

Do you feel emotions deeply? Do you know how others are feeling, sometimes before they do? Do you struggle with fatigue or overwhelm? You may be an empath.   This show is all about empaths. It’s more than a discussion of what it means to be empathetic. Having the skill to put yourself in others’ shoes is great, but not our focus. Today’s conversation is all about those of us who live in the world and can’t turn the empathy off.   Our hope is that after listening to this conversation you’ll have a...

47: The Many Faces of Depression

For so many, the experience of “depression” is actually the experience of getting “stuck.” When we get stuck and feel like we have no options, we can fall into hopelessness and helplessness. Emotions like these are ones we want to run from and numb out.   When the body experiences an emotion, the mind says STOP! This may kill you! Go get a vice! Numb that out! My clients often tell me that they address their own negative emotions, flatness, or depressed experience, with something that will numb them and mask the...

46: How Do You Teach Your Child to Sit in the Adult Chair?

If you’re a human parent, you’ve probably faced some version of this question. How do you teach your kids how to be emotionally present in the world? How to protect themselves and be assertive, and how to live with grace and compassion all at the same time?   The answer is both incredibly complicated and deceptively simple: you can’t.   And that’s where we pick up on the show today, taking on the assumptions we make and the stories we tell ourselves that lead to frustration and shame in our ability to parent. The...

45: How Do You Set The Tone For Your Day?

So many clients have been coming to me dealing with daily stress. You know the feeling — you might not be able to put your finger on it, but the accumulation of stressors in your life feel like 10,000 pounds on your back.   There is no one grand solution, rather a journey of many steps, and an easy one you can take right now today, is to focus on the way you start your day and set the tone for everything that comes before you. Are you looking at your day...

44: Introvert or Extrovert — Which one are you?

“Sometimes I think my son is a complete shut-in.” “I just need to escape.” “Crowds make me feel like my world is closing in.”   What do you think about when you read those lines? Familiar? Foreign? Frustrating? These lines all come from people trying to understand where they and their loved ones relate to their personality orientation: Extroverts or Introverts.   If you’ve ever taken a behavior indicator like Myers Briggs, you have probably received a score that rates you on the introversion/extroversion scale. Like all things related to personality, we exist on spectrum. And...
