152 | Cleaning Up The Mental Mess (P2)

WITH DR. CAROLINE LEAF

 
You don’t need a disease label to validate what you are going through. If you’re human and you are, and if you’re alive and you are then you are a mental mess which is inevitable. We don’t know how to react perfectly to every situation. It’s very experimental.
— Dr. Caroline Leaf
 

About This Episode:

So often our responses to life circumstances stem from what we believe to be true about those circumstances. And if those responses are seen through the lens of trauma and crisis then it can cause us to lose hope quickly.

That is why it is so important to have a mind management system in place to help you embrace, process and re-conceptualize what you are thinking feeling, and choosing.

Today on the podcast we are continuing with part two of the conversation with Dr. Caroline Leaf.

Dr. Caroline Leaf is a communication pathologist and cognitive neuroscientist with a Masters and PhD in Communication Pathology and a BSc Logopaedics, specializing in cognitive and metacognitive neuropsychology.

She has helped hundreds of thousands of students and adults learn how to use their mind to detox and grow their brain to succeed in every area of their lives, including school, university, and the workplace. Dr. Leaf is also the bestselling author of Switch on Your Brain, Think Learn Succeed, Think and Eat Yourself Smart, and many more.

117 | Living Out Your Moment of Courage

WITH TANIA KOLESNIK

Courage can only help you flourish if you are ridding yourself of ego or negative self-talk that would tell you that you can’t do it.
— Tania Kolesnik
 

About This Episode:

Our most innovative ideas are often born in times of adversity. During seasons in life when we feel that everything is chaotic and out of control. It’s only when we’ve come to the end of ourselves that we’re able to let go and surrender to the process. This year (2020) has been fraught with uncertainty and chaos. Courage finds you when you’re in the depths on your worst day.

In November 2017 we released EP 017 Courage Found Me With Tania Kolesnik. We’ve decided that the message is timely for today and we wanted to re-release the episode in light of our current circumstances. This is when we need courage most. 

Tania Kolesnik proudly lives in Prince Edward County, Ontario where she un-schools her two children, Henri & Magnolia. Tania has been blogging for just over 9 years & her feed is full of her strong messages highlighting the importance of mental health, body positivity & all-around women’s empowerment.

With a zest for self-love & abundant personal growth, Tania is a unique voice who doesn’t shy away from embracing challenges while applying what she’s learned to be fearless in her creative endeavors. She, alongside her husband Dustin, are true entrepreneurs who dare to live life unconventionally with their family, gratitude & a push to inspire others at the core of what they do. They’re currently working hard to expand their business with many new projects in the work & are looking forward to seeing what the next few years have in store for their family.

In the first part of the conversation we touch on the reason people struggle to overcome mental health and instead of getting help they make their lives small to accommodate their illness. 

We talk about the church, and how it handles mental health, and what we need to be doing.
