• #15 Brianna Michelle on finding her voice beyond sexual assault
    May 24 2024

    Our guest today is Brianna Michelle, who's the founder & CEO of VOICES BEYOND ASSAULT, a non-profit organization dedicated to revitalizing and empowering the lives of survivors of sexual violence, across the globe. Brianna was sexually abused as a child and then while in college, was abducted, beaten and raped. This experience woke up a sleeping giant within her that declared,”NO MORE” to sexual violence and she began using her voice as power.

    Brianna is on a mission to bring more awareness to the epidemic of sexual assault, tackle taboos and give a voice to women, men and children around the world. We hope you’re inspired by Brianna's unwavering courage and relentless determination. Her journey from a survivor to a beacon of hope and strength reminds us all of the power of resilience and the impact of using our voices for change.

    Thom learned meditation in the 1960s from Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, a great Indian guru who brought meditation to the West in the 1950s.

  • #11 Mary Firestone on trauma healing, resilience and awakening joy.
    Mar 16 2023

    Our guest on this episode is author, speaker and trauma survivor, Mary Firestone. As a child and teenager, Mary survived sexual abuse by several perpetrators. In 2018 she lived through the Montecito, CA mudslide that dropped 200 million gallons of rainfall in 15 minutes, washing away her home, trapping her alone in her bathroom while pregnant, not sure if her husband and four-year-old son were still alive.

    Mary has written a new book entitled Trusting the Dawn, which draws from both her own real-life experiences and her background in clinical psychology, to offer a powerful handbook for not only healing from trauma, but awakening to the possibility of even more joy and meaning because of your experiences. Stories of triumphant survival and interviews with experts bring to life an extensive resource guide and a holistic toolkit filled with a wide variety of pathways to healing.

    We hope you guys are as inspired by this conversation as we are.

  • #9 Dr. Kristin Neff on the importance of practicing self-compassion
    Dec 8 2022

    In this conversation, Dr. Neff offers insightful, research based, practical advice as to how we can start practicing self-compassion in our lives, today.

    Dr. Neff received her doctorate from the University of California at Berkeley, and is currently an Associate Professor of Educational Psychology at the University of Texas at Austin. During Kristin’s last year of graduate school she became interested in Buddhism and has been practicing meditation ever since.  While doing her postdoctoral work she decided to conduct research on self-compassion - a central construct in Buddhist psychology and one that had not yet been examined empirically.

    Kristin is a pioneer in the field of self-compassion research, creating a scale to measure the construct almost 20 years ago. She has been recognized as one of the world’s most influential research psychologists. In addition to writing numerous academic articles and book chapters on the topic, she is author of the book Self-Compassion: The Proven Power of Being Kind to Yourself, and her latest book, Fierce Self-Compassion: How Women Can Harness Kindness to Speak Up, Claim Their Power and Thrive.

  • #8 Dr. Larry Shaw on EMDR, Somatic Experiencing and healing trauma in the body.
    Oct 27 2022

    In this episode we discuss various ways trauma is stored in and expressed through the body. We also explore different body based therapies like EMDR and Somatic Experiencing as a way to heal trauma. Dr. Shaw gives us a compassionate and insightful perspective into the nuances of how the body and mind can work together to heal trauma.

    Dr. Larry Shaw has been a licensed psychotherapist for over 40 years. He’s lectured and taught at many universities in the United States and trained therapists all over the world. He was the director of the Hollywood Counseling Center where he taught the newest cutting edge therapies. He’s also volunteered worldwide to help survivors deal with the traumatic after effects of war and natural disasters.

    Throughout his career, Dr. Shaw has found the use of body based therapies such as EMDR and Somatic Experiencing, used in conjunction with imagery and waking dream work, can accelerate the healing process of long buried traumas, experienced in childhood or later as adults.
