  • EP295: How to Rebuild Self Trust (Even if You’ve Betrayed Yourself Before)

    EP295: How to Rebuild Self Trust (Even if You’ve Betrayed Yourself Before)
    Jul 8 2025

    In this episode, we’re diving into what it really means to trust yourself—especially after years of self-doubt, people-pleasing, or putting everyone else’s needs ahead of your own. Self-trust isn’t about always having the answers or getting it right every time. It’s about knowing that you’ll show up for yourself, tell the truth about what you feel, and make choices that honor your inner knowing, even when it’s hard.

    You’ll hear about why so many of us learned to look outward instead of inward, how subtle self-betrayals can build up over time, and what it actually takes to come back to yourself. If you've been stuck in second-guessing, this episode will meet you with honesty, compassion, and a clear path toward repair.

    Three Takeaways:

    1. Rebuilding trust with yourself starts in small, often invisible moments.

    2. There's a big difference between keeping peace and keeping your truth.

    3. The way you respond to yourself in failure matters more than the failure itself.

    Approval feels nice

    in the moment. But true peace

    comes from trusting yourself.

  • EP294: Where Did You Go? The Moment You Started Leaving Yourself Behind

    EP294: Where Did You Go? The Moment You Started Leaving Yourself Behind
    Jul 1 2025
    In this episode, we take a deeper look at the slow, often unnoticed ways we begin to disconnect from ourselves—especially when survival, acceptance, or love seemed to depend on it. Whether it started in childhood or in a past relationship, the moment you began second-guessing your gut or hiding your truth was likely a moment of self-protection. But over time, those small choices can add up to a life that doesn’t quite feel like your own. We’ll explore how shame, emotional detachment, and a need for approval can pull us away from our true voice—and what it means to gently start coming home to yourself. You’ll be invited to reflect on your own turning points, not with judgment, but with curiosity and compassion. Because the goal isn’t to blame yourself for how you’ve coped—it’s to recognize that you now have the power to choose something different. Three Takeaways: 1. There are moments in your story that quietly shaped how you relate to yourself - and they’re worth revisiting with fresh eyes. 2. What feels like a personality trait might actually be a survival pattern you no longer need. 3. Reconnection doesn’t happen in a single breakthrough - it’s a series of tiny, loyal choices to stop leaving yourself behind. Coming back to yourself isn’t dramatic. It’s in the quiet choice to stop abandoning yourself - even in the small moments. Get your FREE Boundaries Ebook here!

  • EP293: Learning to Stay: Mindfulness, Healing, and Emotional Resilience with Derek Lakin

    EP293: Learning to Stay: Mindfulness, Healing, and Emotional Resilience with Derek Lakin
    Jun 24 2025
    In this episode, I sit down with Derek Lakin, a mindfulness teacher and Awareness Guide whose journey from deep depression to emotional resilience is nothing short of powerful. Derek opens up about the moment he nearly ended his life, and how a last-minute suggestion from his therapist led him to try ketamine therapy. But what truly transformed his life wasn’t just the treatment—it was the years of mindfulness practice that allowed him to receive its lessons, integrate emotional tools, and slowly rebuild a sense of self-worth, presence, and purpose. We explore what it really means to meet yourself where you are, especially when anxiety, shame, or disconnection make that feel nearly impossible. Derek shares how practical mindfulness practices helped him stay grounded, begin to trust life again, and ultimately teach others to do the same. If you’ve ever struggled to just “be” with your emotions, or you’re looking for tools that go deeper than surface-level advice, this conversation offers hope, honesty, and a way forward. Three Key Takeaways 1. The most powerful shifts often start with one uncomfortable moment of stillness. 2. Healing isn’t about striving—it’s about learning to listen differently to what’s already inside you. 3. There are tools that can help you feel grounded, even when life feels completely untethered. The moment we stop trying to escape discomfort is the moment we start accessing real power. To contact Derek: https://www.mindfulnesschangeslives.com/ Get your FREE Boundaries Ebook here!
