What if everything you've been taught about mental health is missing the most important ingredient — human connection? In this episode of Inner Voice, A Heartfelt Chat with Dr. Foojan, Dr. Foojan Zeine sits down with psychiatrist Dr. Fred Moss, known globally as "The Un-Doctor," for a raw and transformative conversation about healing, authenticity, and what it really means to be human. With 40+ years of clinical experience, Dr. Fred shares how he went from a conventional psychiatric career to becoming one of the strongest advocates for connection-based healing in mental health today. Dr. Fred opens up about the moment he realized psychiatry was losing sight of the human being behind the diagnosis — and how that realization led him to build an entirely new model of care rooted in presence, resonance, and authenticity rather than titles or clinical labels. The conversation explores his philosophy of life optimization, his highly anticipated new book Welcome to Humanity: A Psychiatrist's Memoirs and Case Against the Mental Health System (215 revisions in the making), and his upcoming Healer Support Retreat, September 17–20 at Sacred Grove near Charlotte, built around one powerful question: who holds the healers? Dr. Fred and Dr. Foojan dig into why so many therapists, coaches, and caregivers struggle to receive support themselves, the hidden shame tied to needing help, and how learning to receive — gracefully and without judgment — completes the cycle of true healing. The episode closes with an unexpectedly grounding lesson on work-life balance, courtesy of Dr. Fred's three cats. Whether you're a therapist, psychiatrist, coach, healthcare professional, or simply someone seeking deeper connection and self-awareness, this episode will change how you think about mental health, healing, and human connection. 🔔 Subscribe to Inner Voice for weekly conversations on healing, self-awareness, relationships, and mind-body well-being. --- ⏱️ TIMESTAMPS 0:00 – Cold open: What is real human connection? 1:12 – Welcome to Inner Voice with Dr. Foojan Zeine 3:43 – Introducing Dr. Fred Moss, "The Un-Doctor" 4:42 – Why Dr. Fred became a psychiatrist (and almost didn't) 8:16 – What does "connection" actually mean? 11:02 – Dr. Fred's philosophy of life optimization 15:11 – Inside his new book, Welcome to Humanity 16:55 – His manifesto: "There may be nothing wrong with you" 18:01 – The Healer Support Retreat: who holds the healers? 20:47 – Why healers struggle to receive support 25:27 – Giving without needing something in return 28:23 – Life lessons from his three cats 29:44 – Where to find Dr. Fred Moss 31:16 – Closing thoughts --- 🌿 About Inner Voice Inner Voice is a heartfelt weekly podcast hosted by Dr. Foojan Zeine — psychotherapist, life and business coach, author, speaker, and founder of the International Awareness Integration Institute (IAII).

What if the biggest barrier to Black men’s mental health isn’t toughness — it’s the absence of touch? In this episode of Inner Voice, a heartfelt chat with Dr. Foojan Zeine, Dr. Foojan sit down with Aaron Johnson — public speaker, filmmaker, and touch activist — founder of The Chronically UnderTouched (CUT) Project, to unpack the “Black Brute” archetype, touch starvation, and the emotional healing Black men were never taught. Aaron opens up about losing his father in 2010, spending three years unable to cry, and the personal journey that led him to platonic touch, nervous system regulation, and healing through connection. Together, Aaron and Dr. Foojan trace how the hypersexualization of Black male identity was manufactured through Blaxploitation films and hip-hop culture — funded largely by non-Black systems — and internalized across generations as the “Black Brute” and “black buck” archetypes. We go deep into vulnerability, tears, grief, family systems, puberty and boundaries, and Aaron’s therapeutic “body story” method, which uses singing, nature, and slow, consent-based touch practices to help Black men reclaim tenderness. Aaron also discusses his documentary “Dark and Tender” — a rare on-screen portrait of Black men of every age, class, and orientation holding hands and listening to one another — and why investing in Black male tenderness could reduce violence, consent violations, and mental health crises nationwide. This conversation is for anyone exploring emotional healing, toxic masculinity, touch deprivation, racial trauma, grief processing, and what true connection and vulnerability can look like for Black men in America. ⏱️ TIMESTAMPS: 00:00 – Intro: Inner Voice with Dr. Foojan Zeine 08:06 – Welcome Aaron Johnson to the show 08:52 – Losing his father in 2010 & the tragedy that changed everything 09:38 – Unable to cry for 3 years: reclaiming emotional expression 11:02 – Discovering the need for platonic touch 11:46 – What is the “Black Brute” archetype? 12:26 – Mentoring a young man through touch healing 13:22 – Gender vs. race: who has access to platonic touch? 15:13 – Origins of hypersexualization: Blaxploitation & hip-hop culture 17:19 – Who funds the “Black Brute” narrative? 19:21 – Vulnerability & tears in Black family systems 20:47 – The hidden labor of Black mothers preserving tenderness 23:45 – Puberty, boundaries & the shift in family touch 26:52 – The “body story” therapeutic method explained 29:14 – Singing, nature & building safety before touch 30:34 – Slow, consent-based touch practices in action 32:41 – The documentary “Dark and Tender” 34:29 – Why Black men are missing from healing retreats 35:11 – Investing in Black men’s tenderness to reduce violence 36:24 – The prototype we were given — and bought into 38:14 – Has the film’s impact reached Black American men nationally? 39:02 – Touch, culture & capitalism around the world 42:44 – A message to parents raising Black male children 44:40 – Where to find Aaron Johnson & the CUT Project 45:09 – Closing: Follow, share, and leave a review About Aaron Johnson: Aaron Johnson (he/him) is a public speaker, facilitator, filmmaker, and touch activist focused on the emotional and relational lives of Black men, founder of The Chronically UnderTouched (CUT) Project, and co-founder of Holistic Resistance and Grief to Action.

World-renowned relationship expert Dr. John Gray returns to Inner Voice to share the science behind lasting love — and why happiness starts with you, not your relationship status. Dr. Gray, author of the groundbreaking bestseller Men Are From Mars, Women Are From Venus, joins Dr. Foojan Zeine to unpack his newest book, Men Are From Mars, Women Are From Venus — For Women Only: Be Happy With or Without a Man, diving into hormonal science, communication, and what it really takes to build a relationship that lasts. Dr. Gray explains how women can find happiness both in and outside of relationships by learning hormonal balance and healthy self-sufficiency — and why real independence, used the right way, doesn't threaten love but strengthens it. He compares emotional support to vitamins that work together: men and women each provide something the other can't, and when a person feels "not enough," it pushes their partner further away rather than closer. The conversation goes deep into the biology of love: how stress hormones like cortisol shut down our ability to feel connected, why men are experiencing a testosterone crisis, and how the right kind of communication can help men naturally raise estradiol in women — boosting romance, happiness, and reducing stress. Dr. Gray also breaks down the real meaning of masculine and feminine empowerment, introduces his "Venus Talk" technique for emotional expression without conflict, and reveals the healthy hero paradigm — how making a man feel appreciated fuels mutual fulfillment, devotion, and hormonal balance for both partners. 🎯 In this episode, you'll learn: - Why women can be happy with or without a man — and the hormonal science behind it - How independence can enhance, not threaten, a relationship - Why feeling "not enough" damages relationships — and what to do instead - The Vitamin D/K2 metaphor: why men and women provide different kinds of support - How stress hormones like cortisol block your ability to feel love - The testosterone crisis in men and what's driving it - How communication can naturally raise estradiol and reignite romance - The real difference between masculine and feminine empowerment - The "Venus Talk" technique for expressing feelings without conflict - The truth about the hero paradigm — and why appreciation fuels devotion - Dr. Gray's own story: higher testosterone at 74 than in his 20s ⏱️ TIMESTAMPS: 00:00 – The crisis of low testosterone in men 01:36 – Welcome to Inner Voice with Dr. Foojan 02:11 – Meet Dr. John Gray: Men Are From Mars, Women Are From Venus 03:54 – Introducing the new book: For Women Only 04:09 – Why "Be Happy With or Without a Man"? 05:19 – The art of receiving and learning to be happy alone 06:04 – Is female independence a threat to relationships? 07:02 – Balancing self-care with connection 07:57 – The Vitamin D/K2 metaphor: why women need different kinds of support 09:06 – The trap of feeling "not enough" in relationships 09:39 – Why Dr. Gray wrote a book just for women 11:24 – The science: how stress hormones block love 13:42 – Testosterone vs. estrogen under stress 16:35 – Masculinity and femininity in today's world 18:44 – The male testosterone crisis explained 20:00 – Estradiol, menopause, and aging with vitality 24:00 – Male empowerment vs. female empowerment 26:49 – The Vitamin K2 metaphor revisited: why women need women 29:52 – The "Venus Talk" technique explained step-by-step 34:58 – Why women resist receiving — and how to overcome it 36:44 – The hero paradigm: what it really means 39:56 – Codependency vs. a healthy hero dynamic 41:17 – Dr. Gray's marriage: higher testosterone at 74 42:37 – Closing thoughts: the 6-book relationship series 45:18 – Where to find Dr. John Gray 45:52 – Closing thoughts from Dr. Foojan 🔗 About Dr. John Gray: For over 40 years, Dr. John Gray has helped millions of people around the world understand the biological and communication differences between men and women.

In this E462 of Inner Voice A heartfelt Chat with Dr. Foojan, Dr. Foojan sits down with Jennifer (Jen) Stanford — trust coach, keynote speaker, CEO of Emergent Performance Solutions, and author of De-Stressed — to explore chronic stress, leadership pressure, emotional resilience, and personal transformation. Jen shares the deeply personal story behind writing De-Stressed: how years spent helping organizations navigate change eventually exposed her own unmanaged stress. While leading teams, raising a family, and striving to excel at every role, she ignored the warning signs until a serious health crisis forced her to rethink everything she believed about success and wellbeing. Together, Jen and Dr. Foojan unpack why stress touches every part of our lives — physical health, relationships, leadership, decision-making — and why managing it isn't just about exercise or time off, but about restoring balance across four energy systems: intellectual, physical, emotional, and purposeful. The conversation moves into perfectionism, people-pleasing, and Jen's four stress response perspectives (logical, relationship-oriented, action-oriented, organized) — and how understanding them transforms teams, workplaces, and families. If you've ever felt overwhelmed, exhausted, or trapped in the pressure to achieve more, this episode is a reminder that success doesn't have to come at the expense of your peace. ⏱️ Timestamps 0:00 – The image of inner voice 1:25 – Welcome to Inner Voice with Dr. Foojan 1:58 – Meet Jennifer Stanford 4:10 – The IAII Virtual Clinic 5:31 – Jennifer joins the conversation 5:44 – Why Jen wrote De-Stressed 7:06 – The story behind the book 8:20 – The health crisis that changed everything 9:06 – Pressure vs. stress 10:59 – The mind-body connection 12:15 – Learning to actually release stress, not just manage it 14:01 – The four energy systems 15:00 – Letting go of perfectionism and control 16:30 – Fear of image vs. fear of failure 17:42 – The four stress response perspectives 17:54 – The logical perspective 21:01 – Relationship, action-oriented & organized perspectives 22:20 – Why leaning into your least natural response relieves stress 26:56 – Applying this to teams and families 29:05 – Creating space as a leader 31:00 – Energy as currency — and why it's contagious 32:56 – Reading your team's and family's stress patterns 38:01 – Two pathways forward: therapy and coaching at IAII 38:53 – Stop wearing stress like a badge of honor 40:08 – Where to find Jennifer Stanford 41:04 – Closing thoughts Connect with us: awarenessintegration.com | www.iaii.life Topics Covered: .

In this episode of Inner Voice – A Heartfelt Chat with Dr. Foojan, Dr. Foojan Zeine sits down with renowned couples therapist, psychotherapist, and author Tonya Lester, author of “Push Back: Live, Love, and Work with Others Without Losing Yourself,” to unpack why women so often silence themselves despite being raised to be independent, confident, and capable. Tonya shares how women frequently become emotional “shock absorbers” in relationships — softening their needs, avoiding conflict, and shrinking their voice to keep the peace.

Is your chronic pain real — even when every test comes back normal? The answer is yes. And the science of neuroplastic symptoms is finally explaining why. In this episode of Inner Voice – A Heartfelt Chat with Dr. Foojan, Dr. Foojan Zeine sits down with Dr. David Clarke, MD — President of the Association for the Treatment of Neuroplastic Symptoms (ATNS), board-certified gastroenterologist and internal medicine physician, and author of They Can’t Find Anything Wrong: 7 Keys to Understanding, Treating, and Healing Stress Illness. If you’ve spent months going from doctor to doctor, run every test, and been told “everything looks normal” — this conversation is for you. Dr. Clarke and Dr. Foojan explore the powerful connection between childhood trauma, adverse childhood experiences (ACEs), chronic stress, and the very real brain-generated physical symptoms that affect an estimated 40% of all medical patients. This is not “it’s all in your head.” This is neuroscience. 🔍 In This Episode You’ll Learn: • Why neuroplastic pain is not imaginary — it’s a measurable physical change in the brain • How childhood abuse, ACEs, and unresolved trauma create patterns of perfectionism, low self-esteem, and people-pleasing that manifest as physical illness decades later • Why the brain decides whether or not to generate a pain signal — and how stress and fear hijack that process • How the body holds trauma in protective postures — and why releasing those physical patterns is essential to healing • The case of a patient whose stomach was completely paralyzed due to chronic fear activation in the sympathetic nervous system • Why choking sensations, bowel problems, back pain, fibromyalgia, and chronic fatigue may all be neuroplastic in origin • The 7 key indicators Dr. Clarke uses to identify neuroplastic conditions • How autoimmune disease, cancer, diabetes, and heart disease risk all increase with higher ACE scores • Groundbreaking results from the Boulder Back Pain Study — 75% pain reduction in just 4 weeks, sustained over 5 years • How the UCLA study showed neuroplastic recovery therapy outperformed traditional CBT by nearly 4 to 1 • Why integrating medical and mental health care produces dramatically better outcomes than treating them separately ⏱ Timestamps 0:00 – Intro: Inner Voice Podcast 4:01 – Meet Dr. David Clarke: Neuroplastic Symptoms & Ending Chronic Pain 4:49 – “They Can’t Find Anything Wrong” — Why So Many Patients Are Left Without Answers 10:24 – Dr. Foojan’s Personal Experience With Somatic Symptoms & Trauma 12:20 – Dr. Clarke’s Origin Story: The Patient Who Changed His Career 15:19 – The Elevator Ride That Changed Everything (Counseling Cured a Physical Condition) 16:51 – From “Psychosomatic” to “Neuroplastic”: Why the Language Shift Matters 18:34 – How the Brain Decides Whether to Generate Pain (The Hammer & the Predator) 20:02 – How Trauma Is Held in the Body: Protective Postures & Muscle Memory 22:48 – The Paralyzed Stomach: Sympathetic Nervous System & Chronic Fear 25:31 – Case Study: Choking Sensations, Immigrant Trauma & the Vagus Nerve 28:27 – Childhood Trauma, Low Self-Esteem, Perfectionism & People-Pleasing 31:22 – The 7 Keys: How to Diagnose Neuroplastic vs. Physical Conditions 33:06 – Stress Triggers, Anxiety & Depression as Hidden Drivers of Physical Symptoms 35:32 – Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs): The Biggest Category of All 37:01 – Neuroplasticity & Recovery: Mindset, Meaning & Healing from Real Illness 39:16 – Autoimmune Disease, Cancer & the ACE Connection 41:40 – The Research: Boulder Back Pain Study & UCLA Clinical Trial Results 43:17 – Why Physician + Mental Health Collaboration Gets the Best Outcomes 44:57 – Where to Find Dr. Clarke & Free Resources at symptomatic.me 45:37 – Closing: Dr. Foojan on AIT Certification & Living Fully 📚 Resources Mentioned: 📖 They Can’t Find Anything Wrong by Dr. David Clarke → available wherever books are sold 🌐 Free self-assessment quiz + videos + courses: symptomatic.me 🌐 Therapy, coaching, mind-body & functional medicine: www.iaii.life 📱 The Foojan App — AI-powered support between sessions, available now #ChronicPain #NeuroplasticPain #StressIllness #TraumaHealing #MindBodyConnection #DrFoojan #InnerVoicePodcast #DrDavidClarke #ACEs #ChildhoodTrauma #UnexplainedSymptoms #Neuroplasticity #FibromyalgiaRelief #ChronicFatigue #SomaticHealing #BackPain #AutoimmuneDisease #MentalHealthAwareness #BrainBodyHealing #AwarenessIntegration #ATNS #StressAndHealth #HolisticHealth #PsychosomaticPain #VagusNerve #TraumaRecovery #PerfectionismAndHealth #EmotionalRegulation #FunctionalMedicine

Welcome to Episode 453 of Inner Voice: A Heartfelt Chat with Dr. Foojan In this episode, Dr. Foojan sits down with Irin Rubin, founder of MamaZen — a mindfulness-based mental health app supporting mothers through postpartum anxiety, emotional overwhelm, and mom burnout. After navigating her own postpartum mental health challenges, Irin became passionate about helping moms feel calmer, more emotionally present, and mentally supported during one of life’s most vulnerable transitions. Her work focuses on breaking generational trauma cycles, nervous system regulation for mothers, and helping women reconnect with themselves — so they can parent with more patience, love, and intention. About This Episode Dr. Foojan and Irin sit down for a real, raw dialogue — not a traditional interview — diving deep into the most difficult mental health realities of modern parenting. They focus on the topics most parents are ashamed to admit: mom rage, anger, yelling, punishment cycles, and emotional dysregulation, and what it truly takes to raise emotionally healthy children. This is a mental health conversation every parent needs to hear. Postpartum Mental Health — The Crisis No One Talks About Irin opens up about her own postpartum mental health struggles, including the trauma of her first daughter’s birth, severe colic, sleep deprivation, and emotional collapse — followed by the same crisis with her second child. She describes feeling completely abandoned by a medical system that treated only her physical recovery while ignoring her emotional and psychological needs. This gap in postpartum mental health support drove her to build MamaZen — because mothers deserve more than physical checkups. They need real emotional regulation tools, nervous system healing, and mental health support from day one. The Hidden Mental Health Crisis of Modern Motherhood Irin and Dr. Foojan unpack why so many women are blindsided by the mental health impact of pregnancy and early motherhood. Societal pressure, unrealistic media portrayals of motherhood, and a lack of community support leave modern mothers — especially highly educated, high-achieving women — feeling isolated, out of control, and mentally broken. The gap between the “perfect mother” image and the painful reality fuels postpartum depression, anxiety, mom guilt, and emotional burnout on a massive scale. Traditional Support vs. Modern Parenting Pressure Dr. Foojan explores the tension between traditional community-based postpartum support and today’s overwhelming flood of modern parenting advice. Irin offers a powerful mental health reframe: lower the expectations, embrace imperfection, and give yourself permission to try different approaches. She emphasizes that postpartum self-care is not a luxury — it is a mental health necessity — and urges mothers to build a real postpartum support plan including meal support, physical help, and emotional resources in those critical early weeks. MamaZen — A Mental Health Program Built for Mothers Irin introduces MamaZen, her mindfulness and cognitive hypnotherapy program designed to help mothers find inner calm, emotional regulation, and mental peace — from pregnancy through adolescence. The program directly addresses postpartum stress, parental burnout, anxiety, and emotional dysregulation, giving mothers practical mental health tools to self-regulate and avoid hitting a breaking point. How Parental Mental Health Shapes Your Child’s Development Dr. Foojan and Irin examine one of the most critical mental health truths in parenting: a parent’s unregulated nervous system directly shapes their child’s emotional development, attachment security, and mental health. They discuss how parental emotional dysregulation strains both the parent-child bond and the co-parenting relationship — and why nervous system regulation for mothers is the foundation of a healthier family. Practical Mental Health Tools for New Parents Irin closes with actionable mental health strategies for new and overwhelmed parents: Train your nervous system daily with mindfulness and calming techniques Use nap times intentionally for mental health recovery, not just chores Ask for help — seeking support is a mental health strength, not weakness Use the MamaZen app for guided relaxation, co-regulation tools, and nervous system reset exercises Read The Mama Zen Parenting Method — available on Amazon and the App Store Download MamaZen: Available on iOS and Android The Mama Zen Parenting Method — on Amazon#MentalHealth #Wellness #Relationship #PersonalGrowth #Self-Development

Episode 451 of Inner Voice: A Heartfelt Chat with Dr. Foojan features an inspiring and transformational conversation as Dr. Foojan Zeine sits down with Dr. Yosi Amram—licensed clinical psychologist, CEO leadership coach, serial entrepreneur, and best-selling author—to explore the power of spiritual intelligence in leadership, relationships, and personal growth. Dr. Yosi Amram, a former founder and CEO of two companies that successfully went public, has coached over 100 CEOs—many leading billion-dollar organizations. With engineering degrees from MIT, an MBA from Harvard Business School, and a Ph.D. in Psychology from Sofia University, Yosi is a pioneering researcher in spiritual intelligence (SQ), with over 1,000 academic citations. He is also the award-winning author of Spiritually Intelligent Leadership: How to Inspire by Being Inspired. In this episode, Dr. Foojan Zeine interviews Dr. Amram about his groundbreaking book and his deeply personal journey—from his upbringing in Israel and rapid rise in the military, to becoming a successful tech entrepreneur. He shares the profound story of a spiritual awakening that occurred during a massage, which ultimately led him to leave his company, Individual Inc., before it went public—redirecting his life toward transpersonal psychology, inner transformation, and conscious leadership. The conversation dives into the concept of spiritual intelligence, defined as the ability to access and apply spiritual resources and qualities to enhance both personal and professional effectiveness. Dr. Yosi introduces the Integrated Spiritual Intelligence Scale, which measures five essential domains: meaning, grace, truth, wisdom, and transcendence. He emphasizes that spiritual intelligence is universal, practical, and not limited to religious belief systems. Dr. Yosi and Dr. Foojan explore how spiritual intelligence enhances organizational leadership, helping leaders create purpose-driven cultures rooted in shared values, vision, and authenticity. These qualities lead to stronger team dynamics, increased employee engagement, higher morale, and improved financial performance. They also discuss the powerful intersection of spiritual traditions, positive psychology, and leadership science, highlighting shared traits such as purpose, integrity, service, humility, and compassion. These qualities are essential for shifting from transactional leadership to human-centered collaboration, fostering deeper connection, trust, and belonging in the workplace. A key theme in the episode is relational intelligence, inspired by Martin Buber’s I-Thou vs. I-It philosophy. Dr. Yosi explains how treating others as whole human beings rather than objects creates meaningful relationships, both in business and in personal life. The discussion expands into the connection between spirituality and health, emphasizing how emotions like gratitude, love, and acceptance support healing and well-being, while anger and disconnection can negatively impact mental and physical health. Living with intention and embodying these virtues leads to a more fulfilled, balanced, and resilient life. In a compelling study of 100 couples, Dr. Yosi reveals that spiritual intelligence is the strongest predictor of relationship satisfaction, even more than emotional intelligence or attachment styles. Unlike material resources, spiritual qualities such as love and gratitude grow when shared, creating powerful positive cycles in romantic relationships. Finally, Dr. Yosi reflects on the importance of self-connection and inner alignment, sharing how life’s challenges can serve as catalysts for awakening and returning to one’s authentic self. He invites listeners to deepen their own spiritual intelligence through his work, teachings, and community initiatives focused on compassion, presence, and conscious living. #mentalhealth #Wellness #Relationship #PersonalGrowth #Self-Development

In this powerful podcast episode, Dr. Foojan and Dr. Manfield explore how this groundbreaking, pain-free alternative to EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is transforming the way clinicians treat PTSD, trauma, anxiety, and phobias.

E444 of Inner Voice – A Heartfelt Chat with Dr. Foojan features a powerful conversation with Jason Shiers, founder of the Infinite Recovery Project and author of the book Infinite Recovery. In this episode, Jason shares a compelling alternative perspective on addiction recovery. Drawing from his lived experience with addiction, trauma, and personal transformation, he challenges traditional addiction treatment models that focus on pathology and lifelong labels. During this heartfelt discussion with Dr. Foojan Zeine, Jason explains why many current addiction recovery programs fail long-term and why he has shifted his work toward training therapists, clinicians, and treatment centers in a more transformative recovery approach. The conversation opens the door to a new understanding of addiction, healing, and sustainable long-term recovery. Jason explores the limitations of the traditional medical and pathology-based model of addiction treatment. Instead of viewing people as broken or diseased, he explains how addictive behaviors often emerge as intelligent attempts to regulate a dysregulated nervous system. Through the Infinite Recovery Project, Jason advocates for a holistic approach to addiction recovery that focuses on emotional regulation, trauma healing, and reconnecting individuals with their natural resilience. He also critiques the overreliance on “evidence-based practices” that can overlook deeper psychological and emotional roots, which may lead many individuals to replace one addiction with another more socially acceptable behavior. Sharing his personal recovery journey, Jason reveals that he has been free from addiction for over 10 years and now considers himself fully recovered. He discusses the psychological impact of identifying as a lifelong “addict” and how labels can reinforce shame, limit personal growth, and keep individuals stuck in recovery cycles. Dr. Foojan Zeine reflects on her professional experience in therapy and addiction recovery work, emphasizing the importance of self-compassion and understanding addictive patterns as coping strategies rather than defining identities. Together, they explore how reframing addiction can empower individuals to move beyond shame and rediscover their capacity for healing. The conversation dives deeper into different models of addiction, comparing the traditional pathology model with what Jason calls the “intelligence model.” While the pathology model can sometimes reduce shame by framing addiction as a disease, Jason explains that it can also prevent deeper healing by overlooking the trauma responses that often drive addictive behaviors. He describes his work with individuals who have tried conventional recovery programs—such as therapy, treatment centers, or 12-step programs—yet continue to struggle with relapse. His approach focuses on creating psychological safety and helping people reconnect with their inner experience to address the root causes of addiction. Jason explains how his therapeutic approach helps clients develop deeper self-awareness and compassion toward their internal experiences. Rather than suppressing cravings or fighting urges, clients are guided to explore physical sensations, emotional patterns, and nervous system responses often connected to early life experiences and trauma. Through curiosity, mindfulness, and non-judgmental awareness, individuals learn to understand what their addictive impulses are trying to regulate. As clients become more connected to their internal world, Jason notes that the intensity of addictive urges often naturally decreases. The episode concludes with a discussion about trauma healing, self-discovery, and the non-linear nature of recovery. Jason explains that healing is less about fixing what is broken and more about unlearning false beliefs, simplifying inner experiences, and rediscovering one's authentic self. The process involves building a deeper relationship with oneself rather than creating new recovery identities. Dr. Foojan Zeine highly recommends the book Infinite Recovery for anyone interested in alternative addiction recovery approaches, trauma healing, and personal transformation. #mentalhealth #Wellness #Relationship #PersonalGrowth #Self-Development

Together, they unpack the critical difference between grief and traumatic grief, how shock impacts the brain and body, and why stabilization must happen before deeper grief processing can begin. As founder of Traumatic Grief Solutions and one of fewer than 300 professionals credentialed as a Fellow in Thanatology, Dr. Levin provides crisis response consulting, grief leadership training, and trauma-informed coaching for executives and HR leaders. She explains how sudden workplace loss affects productivity, morale, and long-term retention — and why most bereavement policies fail grieving employees.

Dr. Kirsten Viola Harrison, trauma psychologist, author, and founder of Soul Wise Solutions, brings over 35 years of experience helping individuals navigate profound psychological and spiritual transitions. In this powerful podcast conversation, she shares her work with clients living with complex PTSD, dissociative identity disorder (DID), schizophrenia, trauma recovery, and near-death experiences, offering deep insights into healing, resilience, and spiritual integration in psychotherapy. Dr. Harrison is the co-author of I, Sean/a: The Story of a Homeless Intersex Woman Who Inspired a Community, the remarkable true story of Sean/a Smith — a homeless intersex woman living with schizophrenia whose life challenges stigma and inspires a movement toward dignity, inclusion, trauma healing, and community transformation. Her story powerfully addresses mental health stigma, homelessness, schizophrenia awareness, and intersex advocacy. 🔹 From Personal Trauma to Trauma Psychology Dr. Harrison shares how her passion for trauma studies began through her first husband’s severe traumatic experiences, which shaped her lifelong dedication to trauma-informed therapy. She explores the connection between psychological trauma and spiritual encounters, a topic she later examined in her dissertation research. This discussion highlights the importance of amplifying marginalized voices and addressing stigma surrounding serious mental illness. 🔹 The Evolution of Trauma Therapy & Dissociative Disorder Treatment In conversation with Foojan Zeine, Dr. Harrison reflects on the evolution of trauma therapy, dissociative disorder treatment, and trauma-informed care over the decades. They discuss how the mental health field has become more accepting of client experiences, especially in cases involving DID and severe trauma. The episode also explores the emotional challenges therapists face, the necessity of creating safe healing spaces, and the integration of spirituality into psychotherapy. Dr. Harrison references the pioneering work of Ralph Allison, particularly his concepts around internal self-helpers in dissociative identity disorder treatment. 🔹 Quantum Spirituality, Psychosis & Mental Health The conversation moves into the intersection of science, spirituality, quantum physics, and psychosis. Dr. Harrison and Dr. Zeine examine how emerging perspectives in quantum theory are bridging the gap between scientific explanation and spiritual experiences in therapy. They discuss how clinicians differentiate between: • Drug-induced psychosis • Schizophrenia • Spiritual experiences • Trauma-related dissociation Dr. Zeine shares clinical observations on distinguishing substance-induced psychosis from schizophrenia, emphasizing the importance of careful evaluation in media narratives and mental health diagnosis. 🔹 Drug-Induced Psychosis vs. Schizophrenia Explained One of the most compelling segments explores the clinical differences between drug-induced psychosis and schizophrenia. The discussion highlights how drug-induced psychosis may create an entirely internal world disconnected from external reality, while schizophrenia often maintains partial connection to the outside world. Dr. Harrison also revisits the story of Shauna — the intersex woman who lived on the streets for eight years before community intervention changed her life. Through resilience, spiritual connection, and community support, her story demonstrates hope in the face of severe mental illness, homelessness, and stigma. Dr. Harrison encourages listeners to read her book to better understand the complexities of schizophrenia, trauma recovery, and compassionate community support for marginalized individuals. #MentalHealth #Wellness #Relationship #PersonalGrowth #Self-Development

Dr. Nami also discusses the neuroscience behind EMDR and how combining psychotherapy with advanced neuromodulation techniques like repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) and vagal nerve stimulation may enhance PTSD and trauma treatment outcomes. The discussion emphasizes a holistic mental health approach that includes psychology, neuromodulation, medication when necessary, lifestyle optimization, sleep health, and emotional regulation for long-term recovery. 🧩 Neuroscience and Psychological Therapy: The Brain–Behavior Connection Dr. Nami explains how cognition, emotional regulation, and behavioral insight reshape neural circuitry. He highlights the interaction between the central nervous system and autonomic nervous system, and how unresolved trauma can manifest both mentally and physically. The conversation explores insight-building, managing negative thought patterns, and optimizing brain-body balance for cognitive and emotional resilience. 🌿 Psychedelics, MDMA & The Future of PTSD Treatment Dr. Nami discusses emerging research on psychedelics and MDMA-assisted therapy for depression, anxiety, PTSD, and OCD. He explains their impact on neural transmission systems and emphasizes that psychedelic-assisted therapy requires careful screening, professional supervision, and a multidisciplinary approach. 🧬 Dementia, Alzheimer’s & Brain Health Prevention Addressing rising rates of dementia and Alzheimer’s disease, Dr. Nami explains the role of genetics, lifestyle risk factors, sleep quality, stress, and metabolic health in cognitive decline. He shares evidence-based brain health strategies including physical activity, healthy nutrition, emotional regulation, and proper sleep hygiene to protect long-term cognitive function.

E432 Inner Voice – A Heartfelt Chat with Dr. Foojan and Josh Tomeoni In this powerful episode of Inner Voice, Dr. Foojan Zeine sits down with Josh Tomeoni, founder of Ex-Derelict and author of The Gospel of an Ex-Derelict: Fight. Fail. Rebuild. Josh brings a rare blend of lived experience and professional insight as a 19-year fiduciary financial planner turned men’s coach, working with high-performing men navigating divorce, identity loss, and major life transitions. The conversation opens with a deep exploration of how divorce and trauma place every person at a crossroads—a choice between the path of health or the path of destruction. Josh challenges common gender stereotypes, explaining that while men and women don’t choose different paths, they often cope in different ways. Men tend to numb through work, sex, substances, or avoidance, while women may rely on relationships or even therapy in ways that can become ineffective if true growth stalls. As the episode unfolds, Dr. Foojan and Josh explore neuroscience-based differences in emotional processing, the role of culture and attachment, and how comfort zones—work for men, relationships for women—can either support healing or quietly sabotage it. They emphasize that healing requires active engagement, accountability, and results—not passive coping or endless talking without progress. Josh shares his personal story of divorce, spiritual awakening, and the moment he realized that avoiding pain only made it return stronger and more destructive. This realization shaped both of his books and his mission to help men rebuild wealth, masculinity, purpose, and legacy in their second act of life. In the second half of the episode, Josh introduces his latest book, The Gospel of an Ex-Derelict: Fight. Fail. Rebuild., a powerful blend of memoir and practical guidance designed to help men integrate mental, emotional, spiritual, and financial clarity. Rather than promoting surface-level fixes like money or physical appearance, Josh focuses on identity reconstruction, intentional masculinity, and purposeful living after loss. The conversation concludes with a profound reminder: the only way forward is through the pain. Avoiding discomfort only guarantees deeper suffering later. Growth, healing, and strength come from facing hard truths directly—and doing the work when it matters most. ⏱️ CHAPTER TIMESTAMPS (CLICKABLE) 00:00 – Welcome to Inner Voice with Dr. Foojan 02:26 – Meet Josh Tomeoni: Ex-Derelict & Men’s Coach 05:52 – Divorce from the Male Perspective 07:14 – Spiritual Awakening After Divorce 08:30 – Numbing Pain Through Sex, Substances & Avoidance 10:29 – Why Men Feel Alone After Divorce 12:02 – The Traps Men Fall Into During Divorce 13:04 – Do Women Heal Faster Than Men?

Pamela opens up about her experience as a supervised visitation expert, a mother, and a woman healing from childhood trauma and a painful divorce. Together, they uncover the deep psychological, emotional, and spiritual layers behind escapist marriages, generational trauma, co-parenting mistakes, spiritual awakening, and accountability after divorce. Whether you’re navigating marriage, divorce, parenting, or emotional healing, this episode offers raw insight, compassion, and profound guidance for anyone seeking truth, clarity, and hope. ⏱️ CLICKABLE TIMESTAMPS (Curated from the Transcript) 00:00 – Welcome to Inner Voice with Dr. Foojan 00:39 – Introducing Pamela Henry & Soul Custody 02:10 – How Pamela’s divorce sparked her book 05:14 – Staying “for the kids” vs. creating a toxic home 08:45 – Emotional affairs, escapist marriage & hidden pain 11:58 – Divorce regret & how it impacts children long-term 14:42 – Supervised visitation: what children really experience 17:15 – Anxiety, sadness & the emotional cost of back-and-forth custody 20:22 – Childhood trauma research & Judith Wallerstein’s findings 22:40 – Faith, spiritual awakening & turning to God through pain 26:02 – Infidelity, accountability & the absence of spiritual grounding 29:13 – The role of friends: learning marriage vs. learning divorce 31:20 – Why parents overlook the child’s emotional attachment to BOTH parents 34:05 – Toxic divorce cases Pamela witnessed in visitation work 36:30 – The universal emotional impact on children—no matter the severity 38:10 – How regret transformed into healing & the writing of Soul Custody 40:12 – Can rushed divorces be avoided?

Pamela shares her painful journey—from childhood abuse and emotional wounds to infidelity, escapist marriage, and the grief of realizing her divorce caused emotional harm to her children. They explore how divorce affects kids regardless of age or circumstance, including anxiety, sadness, divided loyalty, time loss, and the burden of going back and forth between homes. Drawing on her work in supervised visitation, Pamela explains how even in dangerous or toxic marriages, children still grieve the absence of a parent and carry long-term emotional scars. Dr. Foojan expands the conversation to include both spiritual healing and psychological self-examination, highlighting how unhealed trauma, unmet expectations, and lack of accountability often drive couples to divorce instead of growth. They discuss how surrounding yourself with the right role models—those who repaired their marriages, not just those who left—shapes the path you take. Pamela describes her spiritual awakening during divorce, realizing she never brought God—or any form of higher accountability—into her marriage. She shares how writing Soul Custody allowed her to heal, reconnect with her daughters, and even receive unexpected forgiveness from her ex-husband. This episode is a powerful guide for anyone facing marital struggles, healing childhood wounds, or seeking to spare their children from avoidable trauma. It is filled with truth, vulnerability, and the wisdom gained from looking deeply within. 🔖 HASHTAGS & KEYWORDS #DivorceHealing #CoParenting #SoulCustody #PamelaHenry #DrFoojan #InnerVoicePodcast #ChildhoodTrauma #SupervisedVisitation #MarriageAdvice #FaithAndHealing #ParentingThroughDivorce #EmotionalHealing #FamilyTherapy #AwarenessIntegration #DivorceRegret

These interconnected wisdom elements help individuals navigate challenges with clarity, courage, and hope. ⭐ Understanding Spirituality Beyond Religiosity Dr. Laura offers meaningful insights into spirituality, describing it as a deeply personal experience that goes beyond traditional religiosity. Coming from a scientific background, writing about spirituality challenged her—but ultimately helped her understand its role in connection, healing, intuition, and making sense of experiences that science cannot fully explain.

Summary
Dr. and Katie Turner discussed the differences between spiritual and mental health experiences, with Katie emphasizing the importance of discernment and the potential for mental health concerns to be misdiagnosed as spiritual awakenings. Development of intuitive abilities and the importance of approaching spirituality as a creative project rather than a competitive sport. The importance of developing intuition through regular practice and reflection. She explains that intuition is often experienced as subtle sensory information beyond rational thought, possibly connected to quantum physics and neuroscience. Katie emphasizes the need to distinguish between genuine intuitive insights and ego-driven desires or subconscious manipulations. She suggests starting with low-stakes situations, identifying one's dominant intuitive sensory gateway, and maintaining openness and healthy skepticism. Katie also emphasizes the importance of addressing past traumas and belief systems that may hinder the reception of clear, intuitive information. She recommends working with certified trauma processing professionals to release emotional blockages and enhance intuitive abilities. Katie discussed the concept of toxic spirituality, which she defined as a spectrum of behaviors and beliefs that can be damaging to individuals. She mentioned that it can range from well-meaning but ungrounded communities to more extreme forms of manipulation and exploitation. Katie emphasized the importance of understanding trauma and mental health when dealing with spiritual awakening and the need for a nuanced approach. The potential for unregulated spiritual spaces to be exploited by emotionally immature or toxic individuals. Dr. emphasized the importance of self-responsibility and safety in these experiences. They also mentioned the growing interest in psychedelics and their potential therapeutic use, leading to more discussions about reaching spirituality.
Katie and Dr. discussed the potential benefits and risks of spiritual experiences, particularly those involving psychedelics or shamanic rituals. They emphasized the importance of finding a safe and supportive environment for such experiences, as well as the need for proper training and mentorship. They also cautioned against the dangers of seeking quick fixes or shortcuts in spiritual growth and stressed the importance of integrating spiritual experiences into daily life. They agreed that spiritual experiences are more common than people realize but often go unspoken.

E403– "Inner Voice: A Heartfelt Chat with Dr. Foojan Zeine." In this episode, Dr. Foojan Zeine chats with Omid Nemati. Omid's formal education is a postgraduate degree in business administration, and he is a pilot instructor in general aviation. His active writing journey started around 2013, and the core idea has been to create a tool that can navigate us as humans, both as individuals and as a community (such as families, organizations, nations, and the global population), through various situations. He authored the notion of APS, which GPS inspires. It recognizes possibilities through a coordinated perspective, a highly detailed concept. APS, with its many integrated tools, is based on consilience. With the help of today's technology, different scientific experts—whether individuals, bodies, organizations, or publications—can contribute their input. APS then collects the data and generates a collective APS perspective (point of view), which could lead to wisdom and/or scientific inventions. This approach allows us to understand the range of probable possibilities that may occur in the future, whether for an individual, a community, or an organization. This is how APS was developed and came into existence. His first publication was released in 2019—a novel titled The Human Miind & Patterns of Characters. Today, we will discuss his new book, APS ACOS Positioning System. Evolving communication tool for tomorrow.

Summary
Dr. discussed the evolution of communication tools, specifically the Acos Positioning System (APS). Omid explained the concept of "tomorrow's literacy" as a form of communication that has evolved from verbal to written. He highlighted the importance of this evolution in transmitting perspectives and perceptions across different geographical locations and periods. Omid explains that genetic needs, including efficient communication and relationships, drive human inventions. He describes his concept of people moving between situations on a timeline, with each situation representing a person's current state. Dr. Foojan relates this to a predictive model of human behavior, incorporating both internal processes and external communication. Omid confirms this interpretation, adding that his model, Aps, considers both changeable and unchangeable factors in human life, with the changeable aspects relating to his MIIND model and the unchangeable aspects involving self-awareness and scientific facts. Omid discussed the concept of Attacko, a tool that collects and unifies perspectives from various sources, similar to how numbers were invented to represent quantity. He compared this to Chat GPT, which collects data but lacks a coordinated perspective. Omid emphasized that Attacko enables anyone to contribute their perspective, regardless of their scientific education or knowledge. Dr. asked about the openness of Attacko, to which Omid clarified that it is open to everyone to put their perspective in the system. Dr. and Omid discussed the application of APS in various contexts, including HR training, psychotherapy, and personal development. They explained how APS can facilitate communication between a company and its customers by collecting and integrating individual perspectives into a unified perspective. This process allows for rapid decision-making and adaptation to changing needs. The software also provides recommendations based on the data it collects, enhancing the speed and quality of communication. Dr. Foojan Zeine discussed the concept of a platform that collects and personalizes data based on user interests, such as Chat GPT. Omid clarified that this platform is not related to Aps, but is a fundamental technology that allows software like Chat GPT to operate. He also explained the idea of a generated, coordinated perspective as the deepest level of human understanding, which AI can process faster. Omid suggested that AI may eventually reach perspectives that humans have not yet invented, leading to a potential imbalance in communication between humans and AI. Omid discussed the concept of AI reaching beyond the human perspective, potentially inventing things none of us could have thought of. He mentioned the idea of a "zone" where AI surpasses human understanding and the importance of having coordinated perspective tools to trace how AI reaches these zones. Dr. raised concerns about the implications of AI reaching beyond human perception and the need to understand how AI gets to these zones. Dr. and Omid discussed the potential of AI to collect and merge perspectives from a global population, creating a unified perspective. Omid emphasized the importance of understanding AI's behavioral scale and promoting mutual respect between humans and AI. He also introduced the concept of Aps, a cost positioning system, and mentioned that his book on the topic is available on Amazon.
Omid discussed the importance of invention and communication, particularly in AI. He emphasized the need for mutual respect in communication with AI. Dr. agreed, sharing their experience with the AI chatbot, Mira, which was trained using the awareness integration theory. They compared the process of training AI to raising a child, noting that the AI could grow beyond its creators and potentially become a valuable and empathic entity.

E402– "Inner Voice: A Heartfelt Chat with Dr. Foojan Zeine." In this episode, Dr. Foojan Zeine chats with Tami Kiekhaefer, LCSW, a seasoned psychotherapist with nearly 25 years in private practice. As the author of From Chaos to Calm: A Six-Step Strategy to Break Through Anxiety and Preparing for the Jungle: Avoiding Snakes and Pitfalls on the Path to Healthy Love, she empowers high-achieving women to break free from anxiety, trauma, and relationship challenges. Tami's approach blends practical strategies with deep self-awareness, helping clients build confidence and resilience. She offers virtual, confidential sessions via phone and Zoom, making support accessible no matter where you are. www.healthyhealing.net # 1 on the 20 Best California Mental Health Podcasts list by FeedSpot. https://podcasts.feedspot.com/california_mental_health_podcasts Check out my website: www.FoojanZeine.com, www.AwarenessIntegration.com, www.Foojan.com Summary Dr. and Tami discussed the topic of anxiety, its normality, and its impact on individuals. Tami emphasized the importance of recognizing the roots of anxiety, which she identified as a lack of control over one's environment and negative thought patterns. She also highlighted the significance of being aware of one's body and managing its symptoms to prevent anxiety from spiraling out of control. They discussed the benefits of body-centered yoga and meditation techniques for stress management. Tami shared her experience of using these techniques to lower her blood pressure and emphasized the importance of breathing exercises. Dr. suggested incorporating singing into breathing exercises to make them more enjoyable. They also discussed the prevalence of panic attacks masquerading as heart attacks, with Tami estimating that around 80% of ER visits for suspected heart attacks are panic attacks. Tami discussed the importance of managing anxiety by activating the left brain to assess situations logically rather than relying solely on emotions. She emphasized that the left brain cannot be used simultaneously with the right brain, which is responsible for emotions and creativity. Tami suggested exercises to activate the left brain, allowing for a more logical approach to anxiety. Tami indicated that people often feel out of control when they focus on external factors and that they can regain a sense of safety by shifting their attention to internal control. She proposed writing down what one can and cannot control, emphasizing that the list of controllable factors is usually longer than the uncontrollable ones. Dr. agreed, adding that even if one cannot control external events, they can control their own actions and reactions. The conversation ended with Tami encouraging people to focus on their skills, accomplishments, and marketability to boost their confidence and reduce anxiety. Dr. discussed various types of anxieties, including existential ones such as moving from one phase of life to another, anxieties about illnesses, death, and loneliness, and anxieties about past completions and redefining oneself. Tami shared her theory about experiencing multiple midlife crises every 7 years, which she believes is linked to her children's developmental stages. Both agreed that these transitions often involve unknowns and a lack of confidence in oneself, as one has not yet proven their ability to navigate these new situations. Tami and Dr. discussed strategies for overcoming anxiety and building confidence. Tami emphasized the importance of facing fears and avoiding avoidance, which can exacerbate anxiety. Dr. shared his approach of focusing on strengths and resilience and trusting himself to learn and adapt. They also discussed the importance of self-trust and executive functioning in managing anxiety. Tami used the example of driving in the snow to illustrate how avoidance can lead to a downward spiral and how facing fears incrementally can help build confidence. Tami and Dr. discussed the impact of anxiety on individuals, particularly during the pandemic. They highlighted how anxiety can be both a collective and personal experience fueled by external factors such as social media and news. Tami emphasized the importance of recognizing anxiety as an emotion and not letting it control one's life. She shared personal experiences and strategies for managing anxiety, including naming it and practicing gratitude. The conversation concluded with Tami encouraging others to seek help and guidance in managing their anxiety.

Summary
Dr. and Monica discussed Monica's journey to spiritual enlightenment. Monica shared her experiences of feeling different since childhood, her early interest in spirituality, and her decision to leave her comfortable life in Paris to pursue a path of wisdom and compassion. She described her experiences with Tibetan Lamas and the Dalai Lama, which resonated with her and changed her life. Mònica discusses the concept of wisdom, distinguishing it from intelligence and emphasizing its ethical and moral nature. She explains that wisdom is aligned with the greater good and uses the metaphor of an architect (wisdom) and a carpenter (intelligence) to illustrate the difference. Mònica then introduces her book's concept of seven levels of wisdom, describing the first three levels: conformist, expert, and achiever. She notes that society often views the achiever level as the pinnacle, but in her framework, it is only the third of seven levels. She discussed the importance of self-transcendence and the journey towards becoming the best version of oneself. She emphasized the need to question societal norms and become more independent, resilient, and self-actualized. Mónica also highlighted the importance of accepting others as they are, regardless of their behavior and finding peace in the present moment. She suggested that this level of acceptance allows one to see the perfection in everything and live in peace. Dr. added that this unconditional acceptance and love can transform one's life and lead to mental and emotional well-being.
Mónica emphasized the importance of personal interpretation and emotional control in shaping one's life experience. She argued that individuals should not be victims of their conditioning or programming but rather empowered by their thoughts and emotions. Dr. agreed, suggesting the need for daily practices to maintain equanimity and fulfillment. Mónica proposed being cautious of the media and technology, and practicing meditation or contemplation to connect with one's inner self.
In the meeting, Monica emphasized the importance of introspection, reflection, and presence in daily life. She stressed the need to focus on the present moment rather than dwelling on the past or worrying about the future. Monica also highlighted the significance of having a strong moral and ethical compass, as it determines one's future and ensures a positive outcome. Dr. added that living with integrity and making choices based on the present moment can lead to fulfillment and pride in one's actions.

Summary
Dr. Peter Kristiansen, a chiropractor from Denmark, discussed his journey from treating physical pain to exploring the emotional and thought processes that affect people's lives. He realized that people often seek happiness through external means, but true fulfillment comes from within. Dr. Peter discovered that the brain plays a significant role in controlling our actions and emotions, often resorting to unhealthy coping mechanisms like alcohol, sugar, or smoking. He emphasized the importance of becoming aware of these habits and learning to tolerate the emotional discomfort they cause to make wise choices and lead a more authentic life. This realization led him to write his book, "The Ultimate Life Skills," which aims to help people understand and overcome their emotional struggles. They discussed the role of emotions and the nervous system in shaping human behavior. People often struggle with intense emotions and resort to coping mechanisms such as alcohol, drugs, or excessive work to avoid them. Emphasized the importance of learning to tolerate and manage emotions, which can lead to a more authentic and honest life. They discussed the concept of self-control and forgiveness, emphasizing that people are not in control of their actions due to various factors such as addiction or bad habits. He suggested that instead of punishing oneself, one should focus on gaining control over their actions. Peter also shared his personal experience with sugar addiction and how he learned to tolerate cravings to make better choices. Dr. Peter discusses the importance of understanding and working with the body's natural responses to triggers and emotions. He suggests that instead of controlling external factors, we should focus on quieting down and being present with our bodily sensations. By tolerating and observing uncomfortable emotions, the body can naturally process and release them. This approach allows for more precise decision-making, as emotional reactions influence the brain's higher functions less. The doctor confirms this interpretation, adding that being more conscious of bodily responses can lead to better information processing and wiser choices. He suggested that all humans are traumatized due to their upbringing and the constant observation of others' emotions and actions. He emphasized that the source of unwise acting is often a misinterpretation of bodily sensations. Dr. Peter discussed the concept of willpower and its relationship with the body's response to perceived danger. He explained that the body's nervous system reacts to perceived danger, cutting off the brain's rational part and leading to impulsive behavior, and suggested that this process involves noticing when one is out of control, being aware of it, and then having the willpower to make the right choices. Emphasized the need to stop and notice when engaging in unwanted behaviors and to pause for as long as desired before resuming the original action. He shared his personal experience of overcoming addiction and stress through this method and highlighted the benefits of a more conscious and present life.

He shared his frustration with the initial path and how he eventually came to the title "Fuck Happiness" after realizing his mistake. Dr. Zeine expressed her appreciation for the book and shared her experiences with pursuing happiness, highlighting how societal norms and personal expectations can influence one's understanding of happiness.

Dr. emphasized the importance of relationships and connections in achieving this state of happiness, while Shawn used the metaphor of ordering a pizza to illustrate the difference. He suggested that happiness is like a fleeting pizza, while meaning is about sharing the experience with others and having deep, meaningful conversations.

Shawn and Dr. discussed the importance of meaningful connections in maintaining a stable baseline of happiness.

Dr. shared his personal experience of changing his baseline from depression to a more stable state through therapy and self-work. Both agreed that meaningful connections are crucial for maintaining a healthy baseline of happiness. Dr. discussed the importance of finding meaning in life and being authentic.

Cody explained the book's cover, which was drawn by a friend, and its connection to the story of Carl Jung's quest for his myth. He also mentioned Jaime D'Angelo, a character in the book, who discovered his spiritual connection through practicing with native Americans and using psychedelic mushrooms. Dr. shared his experiences with dream work and ayahuasca trips, noting the recurring ancient symbols he encountered. Dr. and Cody discussed the connection between psychology and spirituality, with a focus on the role of the subconscious and the concept of the shadow. Cody emphasized the importance of making the darkness conscious in the process of spiritual awakening, drawing on Carl Jung's ideas. They also discussed the symbolism of dreams and the collective myth, and how these relate to the human psyche. The conversation centered around Cody's book, "The Shadow of a Figure of Light," which explores the balance between spirituality and religion, and the acceptance of one's darkness as a source of spiritual vitality. Dr. and Cody discussed the commonalities between various therapeutic approaches, including psychotherapy, dream work, psychedelic treatments, and spirituality. They agreed that the first step in healing is to confront and accept the darkness within oneself, whether it's related to trauma, addiction, or other personal issues. Dr. emphasized the importance of self-acceptance and love for all parts of oneself, while Cody shared his personal experience as an alcoholic and drug addict, noting the parallels between Carl Jung's ideas and the 12-step program. Both agreed that the transformation experienced by addicts through the 12 steps serves as a prototype for psychological transformation in general. Cody discussed his perspective on alcoholism, drawing from Carl Jung's letter to Bill Wilson, co-founder of Alcoholics Anonymous. He suggested that alcoholism is a universal thirst for wholeness or union with God and that alcoholics are a prototype of this struggle. Cody also explored the concept of the archetype of the alcoholic, which he found had not been extensively written about. He emphasized the transformative nature of alcoholism, likening it to the prime material in alchemy. Cody highlighted the importance of accepting our murkiness and recognizing that everyone is in the same boat, rather than striving for perfection. Dr. discussed their personal experience with addiction, comparing it to other behaviors and substances. They shared their 30-year work in addiction recovery and opened an outpatient program. Dr. emphasized that addiction stems from a deep-seated unease and anxiety, and people often use substances or behaviors to cope. They noted that falling in love or finding a spiritual connection can be key to recovery, as these connections can guide individuals toward self-discovery and oneness. Dr. also highlighted the importance of self-reflection and daily work in managing addiction. Dr. and Cody discussed the concept of compulsion and its role in human life. Dr. discussed the concept of addiction and the delusion that people often fall into. He explained that people get hooked on a path that promises them a connection and wholeness, but this path is a path of destruction. The association between the addictive behavior and the desired connection is not accurate, leading people to believe that one more use will bring them closer to their goal. Dr. also mentioned that even people who have been sober for a long time can still have this delusion, believing that they can have one more time of using before they die.

She emphasized that simply thinking about these parts is not enough, and instead, suggested reflecting on what one's parents didn't like about them and what they fear showing to others. Rachel proposed tracking these parts throughout the day, checking in with them, and shaping one's life around them to make them feel loved and cared for. She also noted that these parts often come alive with pain and that learning to feel and process this pain is crucial for personal growth. Rachel discussed emotional release work, which involves learning to manage one's feelings responsibly. She emphasized the importance of creating a proactive practice to connect with emotions and move them rather than waiting for life events to trigger them. Rachel also mentioned the need to physically amplify one's capacity to handle anger, sadness, fear, and shame. She suggested setting aside time for this practice, like going to the gym or doing yoga. Rachel and the doctor discuss the importance of integrating and accepting the wounded parts of oneself with love and kindness. Rachel emphasizes allowing those parts to fully express their pain and emotions in a safe space, followed by reality testing to gain perspective, self-care, and moving forward as an integrated adult self. The key is bridging the resourced adult self with the parts desperately needing love and approval, not letting the wounded child parts take over but healing them through this process of acceptance and integration. Dr. and Rachel discussed the emotional release process and the importance of privately acknowledging and letting go of emotions before sharing them with others. They emphasized the need to assess when it's appropriate to express feelings and when it's necessary to let them go privately. Rachel also highlighted the importance of not judging emotions as good or bad but understanding their messages and allowing oneself to feel pain as a natural part of being human. She encouraged people to become skilled at emotional release to feel better and more resilient.

E377 – "Inner Voice: A Heartfelt Chat with Dr. Foojan Zeine." In this episode, Dr. Foojan Zeine chats with Hamed Farmand, whose mother was incarcerated for five years when he was six, and is the founder and president of Children of Imprisoned Parents International (COIPI). He studied the fundamentals of psychology at NOVA College and, under the mentorship of Dr. Shervin Assari, gained a deep understanding of the psychological impact of parental incarceration on children.

He is also certified in “Advocating Social Justice and Change” from the University of Adelaide. Dr. and Hamed discussed the profound impact of parental incarceration on children, drawing from Hamed's personal experience and research. Hamed shared how his mother's five-year imprisonment shaped his life and emphasized the need for society, caregivers, and parents to better support children in similar situations. He highlighted the trauma, stigma, and lack of resources that these children face and advocated for open, honest conversations to build trust and resilience. They addressed the importance of providing mental health support for incarcerated individuals and their families, particularly focusing on the role of education, access to services, and reducing stigma. Hamed discussed systemic issues like poverty and gender inequality, noting the link between incarceration and socio-economic challenges. He also emphasized the need for community involvement in supporting these children and preventing trauma from being passed down to future generations. The conversation touched on coping mechanisms children develop due to parental absence, the role of community support, and how dissociation or overachievement can be common reactions to their circumstances. Both speakers stressed the importance of addressing trauma, providing mentorship, and promoting resilience in children affected by parental incarceration. Hamed concluded by discussing his organization's efforts in education, services, and research to support these children globally. 20 Best California Mental Health Podcasts https://podcasts.feedspot.com/california_mental_health_podcasts/ Check out my website: www.FoojanZeine.com, www.AwarenessIntegration.com, www.Foojan.com Remember to Subscribe, Listen, Review, and Share!

Dr. Foojan and Dr. Dan Siegel discussed the upcoming release of dan's new book, "Personality and Wholeness in Therapy," and the concept of personality in academic and clinical contexts. Dr. Siegel explained that personality refers to persistent emotions, thinking, and behavior patterns that develop over time and contribute to an individual's sense of wholeness. However, he noted that these patterns can become unworkable or unhealthy, leading to personality disorders. The conversation also touched on the relationship between brain activity and mental activity, with dan emphasizing the importance of energy flow as the foundation of both. Lastly, dan shared his insights on the formation of sound as a symbolic means of communication and the differences between personality patterns and types. He discussed the concept of implicit memory and its role in forming personality, suggesting that a sense of wholeness encoded into the brain during fetal development serves as the foundation of personality.

He emphasized that non-secure attachment can lead to emotional distance, intrusiveness, and inconsistency, resulting in ambivalence or disorganization.
He discussed the concept of growth edges, emphasizing the importance of embracing uncertainty and the reality of a journey. He highlighted that individuals have an inward or outward bonding pattern and encouraged them to accept their vulnerabilities and needs. Dr. Siegel introduced a model of personality development that emphasizes growth and exploration of different patterns, explaining how individuals can identify their growth edge and benefit from tapping into the positive aspects of each of the nine patterns. The conversation also touched on the potential of meditation and psychedelics in expanding consciousness and promoting wholeness, suggesting a collective consciousness that underpins individual growth and development.

Dr. Ashkan shared his research and personal journey into the topic, explaining that his interest was sparked by his work as a gastroenterologist. He published several articles and books, including "The Evolution of Happiness" and its Farsi equivalent. Dr. Foojan praised Dr. Ashkan's work for its combination of research and artistic elements. They also discussed the concept of the "duality of reason," but no specific explanation was given. Dr. Ashkan shared his realization that happiness was not the top priority in people's lives, despite his initial expectations, and this insight led to the development of his article exploring this concept. They discussed the complexities of human behavior, focusing on the interplay between obligation and choice in shaping our experiences of joy and satisfaction. They noted that while obligations can sometimes lead to fulfillment and happiness, they can also result in resentment, particularly when they feel forced or pointless. Conversely, when tasks are imbued with a sense of purpose and choice, they can tilt the scale towards joy and satisfaction. Dr. Foojan emphasized the importance of therapists helping clients revisit past decisions with a more nuanced understanding of the circumstances and information available at the time in order to foster self-forgiveness and a more positive outlook. They discussed the concept of happiness and its related qualities. Dr. Ashkan elaborated on happiness as an armor, emphasizing that it is not a single thing that makes us happy but a combination of various elements. He introduced a new model of happiness: inner happiness is the cake, and joy, relief of needs, and excitement are the frosting. Dr. Ashkan also shared the results of research on over 100 personal traits that are closely correlated with happiness and joy, which led to the identification of 10 pairs of complementary attributes. He discussed the concept of happiness as a suit of armor, emphasizing that weakness in any armor component renders it ineffective. Dr. Ashkan stressed that his approach was based on research rather than personal experience or advice, and he highlighted the book's use of humor and caricatures to engage readers. They discussed the concept of happiness as a continuous state that requires effort and resilience. They emphasized the importance of self-reflection, self-improvement, and protecting one's happiness. They also discussed the distinction between acquired and natural happiness, with the former being about contentment with what one already has. The conversation touched on the evolution of happiness and the need to redefine success as personal fulfillment and well-being rather than material achievements. Dr. Ashkan discussed the importance of words in effectively communicating ideas and concepts, particularly in terms of happiness. He emphasized the need to define words with specific connotations to facilitate easier understanding and appreciation of their differences. Dr. Ashkan also shared a poem about the pursuit of happiness, highlighting that it is a universal dream and desire.

E364 – "Inner Voice: A Heartfelt Chat with Dr. Foojan Zeine." In this episode, Dr. Foojan Zeine chats with Rebecca Ahmed, an award-winning speaker, business consultant, and an Energy Leadership IndexTM Master Practitioner (ELI-MP). She is also a Professional Certified Coach (PCC) with the International Coaching Federation (ICF). Rebecca advises companies of all sizes on how to create a motivational workplace culture by transforming the energy and enthusiasm of their teams. Her new book is The Energy of Success: Power Up Your Productivity, Transform Your Habits, and Maximize Workplace Motivation. www. energeticimpact.com. 20 Best California Mental Health Podcasts https://podcasts.feedspot.com/california_mental_health_podcasts/ Check out my website: www.FoojanZeine.com, www.AwarenessIntegration.com, www.Foojan.com Summary of our talk: Rebecca and Dr. Foojan had an insightful discussion about the concept of energy and its significant role in achieving personal and professional success. Rebecca began by defining energy as the ability to do work, distinguishing between two types: kinetic (working) and potential (stored). She emphasized the crucial importance of understanding and managing one’s personal energy to reach goals effectively. Dr. Foojan connected the concept of energy to physical, emotional, and behavioral factors, underscoring the importance of maintaining a positive attitude. Rebecca then introduced the idea of leveraging five energetic success principles to enhance one’s energy levels. Among these, she highlighted the principle of detachment, stressing the need to avoid taking on other people’s experiences or creating limiting stories from mere facts. She encouraged listeners to cultivate curiosity, inspire possibilities, lead with love, and practice presence, helping them navigate from destructive to constructive energy. Dr. Foojan expanded on this by discussing the duality of relationships and introduced the concept of a "water fountain conversation," emphasizing the importance of empathy and self-care in interpersonal interactions. She pointed out how focusing on dissatisfactions and grievances could generate negative energy, fostering a destructive and unproductive workplace atmosphere. Rebecca agreed, noting that such negativity misaligns with the team or company's values and goals. Instead, she suggested that employees should channel their energy towards finding solutions and improving processes. This proactive approach not only turns challenges into opportunities but also boosts motivation and energy, ultimately leading to more efficient goal accomplishment. Dr. Foojan then presented the Awareness Integration Theory, which focuses on individuals becoming aware of their thoughts, feelings, and actions, and understanding how these impact others and the larger system. Rebecca expanded on this by discussing the detrimental effects of ego, particularly how it can lead to a victim mindset and personal conflicts, thereby hindering team and company goals. Both agreed on the necessity for individuals to recognize their ego and take steps to manage it for the benefit of the team and company. The conversation then shifted to the importance of understanding and improving organizational energy to enhance productivity and workplace motivation. Rebecca emphasized the need for self-assessment and curiosity in identifying and addressing inefficiencies and biases. She also highlighted the value of personalization, transparency, and the cultivation of diverse perspectives in the workplace. Dr. Foojan agreed, stressing the importance of openness to new ideas and the potential for technology to drive innovation. They concluded the discussion by promoting the idea that individuals have the power to control their energy, thereby improving both personal productivity and overall workplace dynamics.

They discussed the complex relationship between food, trauma, and addiction. Amy explained how people often turn to food as a way to cope with trauma or emotional pain, leading to unhealthy eating habits and a cycle of self-hatred, highlighting the socialization of food and its role in comfort and nurturing. They both emphasized the need to address the root trauma instead of using food as a coping mechanism. Amy shared her journey with eating disorders and the lessons she learned along the way. She emphasized the importance of breaking free from strict rules and restrictions, creating a balanced and fulfilling life, and highlighting the need for a gradual change process rather than immediate strict rules. Amy explained the concept of the "critter brain," which consists of three parts: the brain stem, the emotional brain (the amygdala), and the prefrontal cortex. She emphasized that the brain sees change as a threat and that relapse is a normal part of the process, especially when one is trying to break free from old patterns. Dr. Zeine added to this by sharing her experiences with individuals who have gone through abuse and addiction, highlighting that relapse is often a part of the learning process and that each time it occurs, there is an opportunity to gain new insights. They discussed the concept of emotional freedom and its role in personal growth. Emotional freedom is recognizing one's power and agency in situations rather than feeling victimized by external circumstances. Emotional freedom also involves letting go of things beyond one's control and focusing on what can be changed. Both stressed the importance of self-reflection and seeking support from others as part of the growth process. They shared their views on self-care, self-love, and self-awareness in relationships. They emphasized that individuals should prioritize their own needs and emotions rather than focusing on their partners' faults. They also highlighted the concept of ebb and flow in relationships, suggesting that periods of distance or separation could strengthen the bond between partners. Amy encouraged people to live their lives to the fullest and pursue their dreams, while Dr. Zeine stressed the importance of maintaining authentic connections with others.

E359 – "Inner Voice: A Heartfelt Chat with Dr. Foojan Zeine." In this episode, Dr. Foojan Zeine chats with Faust Ruggiero. He has been a psychologist in private practice for over thirty-five years. Before entering private practice, he worked in clinics for deaf children, prisons, nursing homes, substance abuse centers, and inpatient facilities. He is also a consultant for major national and international corporations. He is a published research author and a professional clinical trainer. In the summer of 2016, he began to develop The Fix Yourself Empowerment Series based on the Process Life Program to help readers address difficult life situations. The series currently includes The Fix Yourself Handbook, The Fix Your Anxiety Handbook, and The Fix Your Depression Handbook, and this episode will talk about his latest book, The Fix Your Anger Handbook. www.faustruggiero.com
The doctor commended Faust's book, "Fix Your Anger Handbook," which provides strategies to manage different types of anger. Faust shared that he wrote the book after 35 years of counseling, and the pandemic-induced rise in anxiety, depression, and anger led him to expand its reach. The doctor appreciated Faust's approach of presenting complex concepts in short, actionable steps, emphasizing the importance of Faust's multifaceted explanation of anger.
Dr. and Faust discussed the complexities of anger, focusing on its underlying causes and its impacts on communication. They noted that anger is often a result of deep-seated fears and insecurities, which can lead to habitual and subconscious expressions of anger. Faust emphasized the importance of understanding the triggers and connectors of anger and advised people to use their intellect to control and channel their anger in productive ways. Dr. highlighted how people often become aware of their passive-aggressive tendencies only after others feel their impact. Both agreed that uncontrolled anger, whether explicit or passive, is not a sign of power but instead of fear and insecurity.
Faust expressed frustration and the tendency to cope with stress through internal anger, a pattern he recognized as standard. Dr. shared her experiences with using anger as a coping mechanism and how it can provide a sense of power. Faust further discussed the adverse effects of this cycle, including tension and physical discomfort. Both emphasized the need to improve communication and express emotions more healthily. The concept of being unable to control one's reactions was also discussed, with Faust suggesting that individuals must take responsibility for their feelings.
Faust and Dr. discussed the importance of understanding and managing one's emotions, particularly anger. Faust highlighted the need to explore the root causes of adverse reactions and support those struggling to control their anger. Dr. shared her experiences with suppressing emotions, which later manifested in other ways, and stressed that honoring and acknowledging one's anger is crucial for personal growth and healthy relationships. Both agreed that managing anger is not always straightforward, but progress can be made with guidance and self-reflection.
Faust shared his experiences working as a prison counselor, highlighting how people, despite their flaws, can still be good. He then discussed the concept of righteous anger, stating that it often arises from insecurity and a need for attention. Dr. echoed Faust's views, emphasizing that righteous anger doesn't necessarily bring peace and sanity to the world. Both agreed that deep engagement and action are critical in addressing issues rather than being verbally righteous.
The doctor shared how they learned to acknowledge anger as an emotion but not dwell on it, realizing excessive rumination was unhealthy. Faust emphasized the importance of physical self-care, such as proper diet, reducing substances like caffeine, and maintaining stable sleep and exercise routines to address anger's root causes and create space for more positive habits.
Faust emphasized the importance of managing emotions, particularly anger, through a rational and mindful approach. He stressed that individuals should prioritize their intellect over their feelings and that anger should be a secondary response, not the initial one. Faust also highlighted the significance of incorporating breathing exercises and meditation into daily routines to promote a more peaceful way of life. Dr. agreed with Faust's points, noting the connection between physical states like hunger and stress and emotional responses like anger.
Managing Emotions and Handling Anger
Dr. and Faust discussed the importance of managing one's emotions and how to handle other people's anger. Dr. emphasized the need to view emotions as part of a bigger picture and to remain calm in various situations. Faust shared his strategy of anticipating potential anger-inducing situations and preparing a response to avoid getting reactive. Both agreed that avoiding arguments and practicing logical communication can lead to better outcomes, even in difficult situations. However, they acknowledged that implementing these strategies can be challenging.
Faust and Dr. discussed the importance of dealing with anger constructively and peacefully. Faust emphasized that people can control their anger and should focus on positive self-talk to minimize outbursts. Dr. added that individuals should be taught to recognize the early signs of anger and remove themselves from potentially violent situations. They also stressed that seeking help, such as counseling or reading self-help books like "Fix Your Anger Handbook," is a sign of strength, not weakness. Both agreed that anger can be managed and overcome with the right mindset and support.

E327– Inner Voice – A Heartfelt Chat with Dr. Foojan. In this episode, Dr. Foojan Zeine chats with ELIZABETH HORN, who has been a healthcare communicator for over twenty years and is the cofounder and codirector of The ART of Infertility, for which she has curated thirty exhibits since its inception in 2014. The ART of Infertility was the 2018 recipient of the Hope Award for Innovation given by RESOLVE: The National Infertility Association for its work communicating patient experiences through arts programming with INFERTILITIES, A Curation. Elizabeth Horn, Maria Novotny, and Robin Silbergleid seek to break through the silence, shame, stigma, and isolation surrounding trouble with conceiving or bearing a child while also demonstrating how central creativity is to grieving and healing. Through personal stories, vignettes, poetry, and works of visual art, this collection captures the anxiety, fear, frustration, anger, stress, and sadness familiar to everyone living with infertility—and not just older white heterosexual couples. Infertilities, A Curation honors the experiences and perspectives of a diversity of individuals living with infertility—women and men; white, Black, Latinx, and Asian; single parents by choice; nonbinary and transgender individuals; heterosexual couples; lesbian and queer-identified couples; and anyone with a medical condition that makes conceiving or bearing a child impossible. As the curator stresses, this collection clarifies: “Infertility does not discriminate.” Check out my website: www.FoojanZeine.com.

When people have dysregulated brains, they struggle with physical and emotional pain, life is hard, and relationships are damaged. Neurofeedback helps the brain learn to regulate better. When the brain is functioning better, people thrive. Dianne knows that Neurofeedback saved her son’s life and restored hope for her family. SYMMETRY Neuro-Pathway Training provides Neurofeedback services and systems to individuals, families, therapeutic programs, and professionals across the USA, Canada, and Mexico.
