Changing painful stories and teen slang


Hello Reader,

Check out this week's episodes of Overpowering Emotions and Parents of the Year podcasts!

On Overpowering Emotions this week, I chat with the fabulous Dr. Tonia Winchester about how we can use Neurolinguistic programming (NLP) to heal old emotional pain and stories that keep us from being who we want to be, doing what we want to be doing, and having what we want to be having.

Dr. Tonia talks about how she guides her clients through a "Breakthrough" process where they easily and gently clear the past, and recode their unconscious minds, priming them to make and sustain positive changes in their health and beyond. The results are a strengthened connection to self - more self-love, worth, and value - allowing them to take care of themselves in a self-affirming way, build happy, meaningful relationships and compelling futures.

LISTEN IN to this incredible episode!

On Parents of the Year, the whole family - including our two girls - is in the house to poke fun at how outdated my knowledge of teenage slang is. Test your knowledge too - how hip are you with your kids?

LISTEN IN to find out! (And, if you're enjoying the show, help us out by rating us on Apple!)
