Some of the most cliched, tossed around words today are: “Personal Growth" and "Professional Development.”

In becoming buzzwords, they lose their ability to help us or effectively elicit change.
Our brains need a refresh and rebrand.

Tune in learn why it’s time to:
- Ditch the butterfly analogy and embrace the DRAGONFLY metamorphosis of emergence
- Welcome the un-becoming and the un-learning of past identities for effective growth
- Lean into the unexpected, the unknown and the powerful timing & wisdom within

We’re glad you’re here.

Do you struggle with anxiety, stress, anger or fear?

We’re sharing a super easy and effective way to melt away challenging emotions in a minute. Kids, teens, or adults, we can all use tapping to move energies and emotions through and out of the body.

With her clients, Lea has seen this technique help:
- Children when frightened to get a flu shot.
- Children (and adults) take away fear from nightmares and fall back asleep.
- Teens for school/test anxiety and drama in friendships.
- Adults reduce stress at work, to calm & center before a difficult conversation, and even to clear procrastination.

For visuals, watch the entire episode here on our YouTube.

Enjoy this powerful technique! Send us a DM after you use it.

Can you think of a worse criticism than being called "passive" or "weak"?

In our society of doers, producers, and achievers the concept of acceptance feels foreign and a bit like giving up or backing down.

But what if acceptance is actually the doorway to a powerful, honest engagement with life and the most effective place to move from both personally & professionally?

We take on the tricky subject of acknowledging and allowing everything from our human limits to the news to even negative emotions like depression.

We’re glad you’re here.

Let’s be honest… we’ve ALL tried to change and failed.
But what if the problem isn’t you?

We’ve all attempted the new year’s resolution or shot for a professional goal at work and… the vast majority of us missed the mark.

We feel trapped by circumstances, obligations, and beliefs that we can’t actually do more or be more. We’ve learned change is hard and it has led to the often unconscious, unspoken doubts in our mind: Is change really possible? Is change really possible for someone like me?

But what if the problem isn’t you?
What if it’s actually a failed model of change that we’ve inherited from society?
Today on the podcast we talk about a new model of change rooted in The Power of Possibility.

When Adriana was young, she discovered that through theater, she could communicate inner emotions outwardly and move an audience. She then became fascinated with the art movement Expressionism which externalizes internal ideas to evoke change. As a director and coach, she helps people reveal authentic self-expression by starting from their core center.

Listen in as Adriana shares about breaking down silos between work, family, and self to achieve wholeness. She explores how we can integrate the internal and external to foster human connection and growth.

We’ve neglected this topic. We’re afraid to offend, to disagree or be at odds with others so we just don’t talk about it….

But it’s the piece that makes us feel alive and connected. 

And the piece that has the power to transport and transform, to change every cell in our body and make our work pop. 

Join us for a conversation to explore that thing that none of us can see but all of us can feel.  Delve into the Mystery of Spirit.

Have you ever stood in the shower and listened to the constant commentary going on in your mind?

Becoming aware of and learning to cultivate your inner voice to guide and support you rather than ridicule, criticize, and tear you down is essential to live and work well... yet we never talk about it.

  • begin increasing awareness
  • shift neural pathways and nervous system states

Today on the pod we dive into the art and science of taking up space, filling the room with our energy, and speaking with confidence. Whether it’s an actual stage, the boardroom, or the bedroom for a 1 on 1 conversation with a partner, speaking authentically brings up jitters and nerves for us all.

Lea shares the evolutionary basis of our nervous system’s automatic responses in these situations and how the subconscious links we acquire growing up make grounded confidence so challenging. Adriana shares techniques for connecting breath, body, and voice to become a charismatic leader in all the rooms and situations of life and work.

We dispel the myth of "fake it til you make it." Clarify the difference between pretending and becoming. And share the two parts for effective public speaking and key for resilience when your message is challenged.

Today on the podcast, we tackle a myth that derails and discourages so many of our clients.

In our fast-paced, instant gratification society, this myth is as pervasive in the entrepreneurial world as it is in the health and wellness space. Being sold the idea that there is “overnight success” or a “magic pill” to instantaneously arrive creates so much frustration in the actual process.

Today we have an honest conversation about what actually goes into success, what questions to ask yourself when seeking change or a new goal, and how to make space for the hopeful twist of an overnight breakthrough that is possible!

Let’s examine this lie of overnight success that our microwave society wants us to buy. Let’s jump in & let’s get curious!

Let's explore sleep (rebroadcast!).

The ways we sabotage it, and the ongoing battle & stories, thoughts, and beliefs about deserving rest and grabbing back “me-time” at the expense of sleep each night. We dive into the science and physiology of what is happening in our brains & bodies when we sleep and why it is so vital to health. And how shifting our perspectives and creating habits that promote adequate rest make a huge difference in our wellbeing. Finally, we explore the realities of sleeping in this modern world with shift work, cell phones and more.

This week we continue our conversation about financial wellness by interviewing Georgia Lee Hussey, who is CEO and founder of Modernist Financial, a B Corp Wealth Management Firm, to the podcast.

Adriana began this series talking about how abundance and authenticity are intricately linked. In our last episode, Lea shared how understanding the role of money in the subconscious can be a powerful method for unlocking self-worth and realizing how we value our doing rather than our being.

In today’s conversation, we discuss Money Stories and how they impact the dollars and cents of financial planning. Georgia provides context for how our values and our narratives about money impact our journey through this world, our planning for the future, and even how we live & spend in the present. We dive into where these stories come from, whose voices we’ve internalized, and why getting clear on them is her first step to financial wellbeing. Georgia shares with us the five dimensions of wealth, and together we explore the concepts of plenty & enough while planning for the future.

Enjoy this rich conversation!

This week, we interview Lea to understand how finances and money interact and influence our physical and mental health.

Our brains are always changing and creating new neural pathways. This week we get curious about the exploding science of how to shape our subconscious.

Lea shares how cultural messages, historical narratives, and stories ingrained in our subconscious mind dictate our sense of wellbeing, self-worth, and wholeness. She exposes how these influences, invisible to our conscious and logical mind, create patterns of behaviors and habits that thwart our desired physical, mental, and financial outcomes.

Lea talks about how attending to our nervous system, the physical sensations in our body, and naming our emotions can begin to unlock the power of the subconscious.

This week, we begin a conversation about abundance & financial wellness.

Interviewing Adriana, we get curious about authenticity and how confidently using your voice allows for greater connection, clearer communication, and bigger impact.

With her 20+ years as a director in theater arts, she shares her findings that great art and influence comes by stepping into abundance, dispelling the myth that one must be a “starving artist” to be successful.

Moving from scarcity to the practice of authenticity and abundance is at the heart of Adriana’s coaching & courses. If public speaking, speaking via video, social media, or in person events is part of your role as a business leader or entrepreneur, be sure to grab the skills, strategies, and structure to confidently connect with your audience and realize your impact and income goals in Adriana’s current offerings.

Today we welcome Laurie Callen, Medical Educator at New York Institute of Technology, College of Osteopathic Medicine and published author. She helps us synthesize some of the conversations we’ve had on recent episodes about the US Healthcare System.

Previously, Lea shared the challenges behind closed doors as a clinician and Kirstin Bolt shared about the struggles of being patient in the system with chronic disease.

Our conversation today focuses on what we can do.

Laurie helps adult learners and medical professionals utilize the power of a health care moment to create excellent communication and connection.

She shares with us multiple strategies to effectively talk to our doctors and achieve clear, intentional communication. She reminds us of our shared humanity and the need for empathy on all sides. Finally, she gives great advice on how to prepare for a visit, how to create a healthcare team, and the importance of mindfulness in how we receive information.

Connect with Laurie on Instagram: @laurie.s.callen

As promised, your guide to prepare for a medical visit:

Before visit:
- Have the story clear in my mind or written out
- How am I coping with this? How is this affecting me?
- Be ready to share information not asked. You didn’t ask me this, and I would like to share with you... You didn’t ask me this, but I would like you to know… My theory about this issue is...

Common questions clinicians ask (OPQRST):

Onset of symptoms: When did it start? What else did I notice when it started?

Provoking/Palliating symptoms: What makes it worse? What makes it better?

Quality of symptoms: What does it feel like? Use words to describe the pain such as sharp, dull, stabbing, burning, crushing, throbbing, nauseating, shooting, twisting or stretching.

Region/Radiation: Where is the pain located? Does the pain radiate? Does it feel like it travels/moves around? Did it start elsewhere and is now localized to one spot

Severity: On a scale 1-10 how intense is the pain? 10 being worst pain in your life.

Timing of symptoms: How long did it last? How often does it occur? Is it sudden or gradual? When do you usually experience it? Is it accompanied by other signs or symptoms? Does it occur surrounding meals? Does it occur seasonally?

Today on the podcast, we journey through the challenges of the US healthcare system by hearing the personal experience of Kirstin Bolt, an autoimmune warrior determined to discover healing, wholeness, and root cause understanding.

Kirstin shares what it’s like to have the diagnoses and prescriptions piled on without an explanation….until she said, "No more, this is not my path."

Understand the importance of always asking, “WHY are these symptoms happening?”

Listen in to be inspired and empowered by one woman's journey of advocacy to equip herself and her family with a care team and intentional disciplines and practices to support root level health & wellness in the face of autoimmune issues, food allergies, Type 1 Diabetes, and more.

We promise this one will leave you hopeful…and with a few ideas to take ownership of your own health journey.

Today on the podcast, Adriana interviews Lea as she pulls back the veil on the U.S. Healthcare System. She shares some shocking revelations from 10 years in the trenches and behind closed exam rooms as a family medicine nurse practitioner.

We take on the pharmaceutical industry, electronic health records, the insurance industry, and question the lack of adoption of current scientific evidence within the traditional practice model.

We ask questions about where profits are being made on patients, why patients aren’t actually getting better, how writing prescriptions became the norm, and how much NPs actually make for that quick 15 minute visit.

It’s a rare and honest look from the inside.

Thanks always for being here - we’re so grateful to explore these topics and have these conversations together. Please send us a message about your experience inside the U.S. healthcare system.

Noticed the sales pitch from every gym, supplement company and legging brand promising a “NEW YOU” in 2023?

This marketing & messaging has been driving Adriana & Lea crazy for years and so today on the podcast we tear down this idea that you are so utterly wrong you MUST buy some new product or service & throw out that “old 2022 version” of yourself.

We explore why New Year’s Resolutions don’t work

We ask questions to discover what it looks like to start this new year (or any potential change) from a place of wholeness, completeness, and inherent goodness….and why that actually works!

We get curious about how to create intentions and goals without shame, guilt & punishing ourselves.

If you, too, are sick of every advertisement trying to fix you, join us inside the Wellbeing Workshop this week.

This week on the podcast, we dive into the idea of 360-degree wellness as integrated, whole, full circle persons, and discover we are more than we seem on the surface!

In this conversation, sharing personal stories of our religious and spiritual beliefs, we learned new things about each other and found there are parts of ourselves and our experiences that aren’t typically discussed unless explicitly asked.

Finally, we confirm the questioning & curiosity that guide this podcast. Wondering about the universe and trying to understand the greater world around us has been driving us since we were kids.

As we head into the last month of the year and all the busy-ness that is December…

on this week’s episode of the Wellbeing Workshop

we create space

to pause,

reflect,

and explore

how do we look back and assess our progress over the last year?

We wrestle with defining markers of success; those that are internally created from our values vs traditional external markers like money & material accomplishment.

We get curious about how productivity, output and “doing” each year influences our ideas and feelings of self-worth in work and in family life.

We hope this episode gives you a new question or two to consider when evaluating your year and your success. Because no doubt, you are here, you are worthy, you are a success, and you have been rippling forth amazing things in 2022 whether or not they are tangible yet.

This week on the podcast we explore the evidence for diverse health benefits of a gratitude practice and how noticing glimmers in our bodies can shift our nervous system states. #yayscience

We share personal moments & stories that profoundly shaped us. We get curious about how to notice, witness, and appreciate in a more expanded and embodied way.

This week in the workshop we explore some recent life experiences to see how decades of cultivating resources for our mental health plays out IRL.

A crowded airport, a questionable mammogram result and a condescending doctor…. all give opportunity to practice the resources, tools and strategies we have acquired to address the very real, very common mental health challenges, stress and uncertainty found in the moments of daily life.

Thanks always for being here. If these conversations resonate with you, please share it with a friend. And the best compliment you can give us in this work is to hit the subscribe button on your fav podcast platform and leave us a review. It really does help get the work out about the Wellbeing Workshop.

Thank you for joining us in the workshop this week.

Today we have a wide-reaching and very personal conversation about mental health. We touch on topics including anxiety, depression, self-harm, substance use and more, we recognize these are darker topics and can be hard at times. As you listen, honor yourself and if it feels too uncomfortable, turn it off–take care of yourself, first and always.

This is a hard one for us, not because we don’t have a desire to talk about mental health (in fact quite the opposite–this topic is a primary driving force for both of us.) And not because we hold shame or stigma around sharing our personal stories. But because it’s really scary to be vulnerable, to be honest and to put our lived experiences out there in the world. But that’s what we have committed to each other and you all–to be curious and to hold space for all aspects of wellness.

Our deepest hope is that if you, too, have struggled with mental health or are currently struggling you feel less alone in hearing our stories and that this supports you in some way.

You are not alone. We need you. We love you.

If you are in a dark, hard place, feeling like you don’t want to live and/or have thoughts about hurting yourself dial: 9-8-8 to be connected to the The Suicide & Crisis Lifeline in the United States. This prevention network of mental health professionals provides 24/7 service via a toll-free hotline. It is free and available to anyone in suicidal crisis or emotional distress. The number is 9-8-8

In this episode, we explore the idea of boundaries–what they are, how they help, and concrete and imaginative ways to be clear and kind to ourselves & others.

We question the to-do lists and expectations of the holiday seasons and get curious about how to plan, get support, and simply do less to have a cultivated experience in line with your own personal values and vision for the season.

If the mad-dash marathon of Halloween–Thanksgiving–Christmas–New Year’s has you simultaneously excited for the magic and exhausted by #allthethings, listen in for new ideas to respond to the energy of the season and care for yourself through it all.

This week’s episode was recorded live, together, and on location from Los Cabos, Mexico. We were whisked away on an all-expenses paid travel experience, and it inspired us to continue the conversation from last week’s episode ("Well-Spent") reflecting on how we spend our money.

This week on the podcast, we explore what it's like to not have time or money impact our decision-making. We explore the messaging we received as children, how to deeply listen to our bodies & needs, and how to cultivate space to deeply listen to another person's perspective... even if you don’t agree 100%.

In this episode, we explore financial wellness through the belief that shopping, gift-giving, and spending is an opportunity to express our values, voice, power, and abundant joy.

We look at B-corps, non-profits, experiential gifts, memberships, local artisans, network marketers, and more for opportunities to feel really good about money well-spent.

We have TONS of specific ethical brands we love and purchase from everyone year. Shoot either Adriana or Lea a DM for our favorites!

We explore sleep, the ways we sabotage it, and the ongoing battle we have to dispel the inner stories, thoughts, and beliefs about “deserving rest” or “producing enough to earn rest.”

If you became aware of challenging stories and frustrating habits around sleep that won’t budge, be sure to check out Lea’s link below to learn more about her holistic & effective approach for impactful & sustainable changes to our health habits.

Most importantly, we hope that you know you are worthy, so utterly and completely worthy of sleep. And not to worry! Your body is going to do some totally productive things while you get that shut-eye.

Thank you so much for joining us for this inaugural episode of The Wellbeing Workshop. We are thrilled to be creating space for holistic wellness: physical, mental, emotional, financial, energetic, spiritual, and more. Join us each week as we get curious and dive into conversations that for too long have been stigmatized, ignored, or relegated to private forums only.
