Emotional Badasses are survivors, thrivers, seekers, and healers! Expand and awaken to your higher purpose, be more present and authentic, find strength in spirituality, quiet the monkey mind of modern society with meditation, and connect deeply with yourself and safe others. We let go of what doesn't serve us to heal old wounds, find our voice guilt-free, and learn to be the hero in our own story, embrace guerrilla self care, and laugh with lightness on the self development path. This show is designed to mindfully be the emotional education so many of us crave; emotional badass is where we learn to love ourselves without apology. Emotional Badass is where Moxie Meets Mindful. Hosted by Nikki Eisenhauer M.ED. LPC, LCDC, International Life Coach and Psychotherapist, Licensed Professional Counselor, Yoga and Meditation Teacher.
Today we delve into the transformative concept of "mattering" as an essential component for personal well-being and a safeguard against destructive emotional states. Drawing on two decades of psychotherapy experience, I offer a holistic approach to healing. From understanding the relativity of pain and setting emotional boundaries, to mastering what is termed as 'soul care,' this is a comprehensive guide for anyone on a journey towards emotional resilience and self-discovery.

I've never met a highly sensitive person who didn't have an overdeveloped inner-critic.

Awakenings mature us, force listening & expansion that turns into wisdom. Other human beings help us trust reality & our experience.

By therapeutically providing a positive energy & lessons for our inner children, we fill in our voids, & maturity expands. https://Patreon.com/emotionalbadass

What are we made of? Have you been thinking about this since hearing the nursery rhyme; snips & snails & puppy dogs' tails? I HAVE. This episode is about the differences & similarities between HSPs & Energy Vampires. It takes understanding of these dynamics for a HSP to shield (with boundaries) against emotional vampire-ing & stop allowing yourself to get sucked in. As adults we can do what we couldn't as children---learn how to keep energy vampires OUT and our energy IN. https://patreon.com/emotionalbadass
I share something vulnerable and ripe for judgement in this week's episode. A personal story about the highly sensitive struggle to manage stress, create peace, calm, & act in love. Featuring Queen Dagmar. Most Highly Sensitive People& trauma survivors report a love-hate relationship with high sensitivity.

Those of us in the Highly Sensitive Tribe can be so so hard on ourselves.

Sharing some of my own road through poverty, struggle, and humbling myself in the name of survival. I hope it helps anyone who is out there facing economic uncertainty, fear, and (hopefully not) desperation. I name the societal shame trap of facing 'taking a job that's beneath me,' and that financial hardship is a major player in suicidal ideation and a continuation of anxiety/depression and PTSD symptoms. As many enter (or deepen) financial uncertainty within our covid economy, I want to keep talking about money, hope, resiliency, surviving to thriving, understanding these deep and tender, generational and worth-impacting dynamics. For the record, our worth as individuals does not change. My worth and your worth remain, fixed, no matter our financial value or comfort, if there is one dollar or millions, even when our feelings try to say otherwise.

Chris encouraged me to post this publicly instead of exclusively on our show's Patreon. He said it's important. Some of my more personal stories feel more contained there than on the iTunes feed. Big breath. He's right. I hope there's something useful to you in the complexity of the story.

Thank you for holding space for me within my vulnerability & truth.
