PODCAST
YOU, ME, & THE ELEPHANT
Podcast hosted by Dr. Deb with Crystal Clear
Episode 32: What does it mean to sustain your life?
A question I was presented with recently was, “Where in my life do I sustain and where in my life do I maintain?” Have you ever been asked a simple question that feels out of proportionally complex to answer? This conversation ended up being very helpful in noticing where I am currently maintenance heavy and where I am maintenance light. Join me in the episode.
Episode 31: What do you expect?
In this episode, I adventure into what lies behind our expectations, how reconnecting with the mystery of life influences how and what we expect, and how re-visiting Don Miguel Ruiz's Four Agreements may support us in updating and enriching our relationship to EXPECTING.
Episode 30: What are you saying?
This episode is simply filled with three baseline observations on how what we say can reveal what’s happening on the inside and within the dynamic of your relationships. Sometimes we use avoidance languaging, sometimes we come out fighting, and others we just simply freeze.
Episode 29: Are you enough?
Are you enough? Do you have enough? Have you done enough? It seems as though our relationship to “being enough” lies underneath a lot of our behaviors, like reducing a fraction to its simplest form. When we do hold on to or try not to look at the “enough” conversation, it either implodes (creating exhaustion, anxiety or dis-ease) or explodes (impacting and possibly damaging our relationships).
Episode 28: Do you like money?
What is your relationship with money? Do you smile when you think about money or is there a pit in your stomach? The one thing I’m certain of is that it has played (and plays) an important role in your life, regardless of what kind of relationship you have with it.
Episode 27: How do you nurture your creativity?
Where does creativity come from anyway? Some of us associate with being creative and some of us don’t. Or, sometimes we just don’t know. Join us as we get CREATIVE on our understanding of the remembering of Self and the power that lies within our creativity.
Episode 26: What does your pet teach you about life?
This is an episode all of humanity needs. Oh, how our four leggeds love to teach us so much! This was a “conversation that almost wasn’t." Then, by the magic of the field around us, everyone seemed to be talking about the beauty and love of their pets!
Episode 25: Do you like certainty or variety? Part 2
In this episode, I was called to explore more deeply this relationship between instability and stability and notice which ways we adapt around or with this relationship.
I discuss 3 types of Life Adaptations strategies that we all have and explore how becoming more aware of them can breathe in more space, self-awareness, trust, and empowerment.
Episode 24: Do you like certainty or variety? Part I
In this episode, we begin to enter this curious and vital conversation on the relationship between the need for certainty or security and the craving for something more. Whether you are yearning for some quiet and ease or ready for some excitement and transformation, we trust this episode holds something intriguing for you.
Episode 23: What do you do when you get what you want?
How we can acknowledge a broader range of how we can celebrate the different versions of ourselves that contribute to our accomplishments?
Episode 22: How do you live with integrity?
Have you ever felt that pang or nudge from somewhere deep inside of yourself that knows something is off? Perhaps the story you are telling yourself is not the whole truth. Within this episode, you will walk with us as we unpack integrity in a way that may spark some new curiosities and deeper connections in what it means for you to live with integrity.
Episode 21: What did my junk drawer teach me?
I joyfully invite you into this space of this conversation with me as I explore the Japanese concept of “Ma” and how cleaning out my junk drawer became a sacred act of abundance.
Episode 20: How can mud change your life?
In this episode, I share a story of how a "regular" day out paddleboarding became a powerful metaphor for living full-heartedly. Step into the mud with me as I recall how it felt when life was going my way…until it wasn't. 😆 Or was it?
Episode 19: How do you get along with fear?
How does fear show up in your life? What kind of relationship do you have with it? Biologically and evolutionarily speaking, fear is necessary. It is linked to the part of our nervous system that is responsible for our survival. But how has life changed since the first humans came to be?
Episode 18: You will be judged, now what?
Do you ever feel judgy...about yourself, others, or the world? Let’s face it, we all have. What if we took a moment to explore judgments in a more whole, productive, and supportive way?
Episode 17: It's all about the stretch?
What happens when we grow, learn more about ourselves, and STRETCH into more life? When we stretch we birth more space, whether physically, emotionally mentally, or spiritually. We may feel more flexible in our bodies, feel like we can navigate stressful situations more easily, and often feel a sense of aliveness and deeper meaning in ourselves.
Episode 16: Embodiment?
Embodiment is a word we use a lot. What does it mean to be embodied? In the last 30 years of private practice, it would be impossible to count how many times I have heard someone say, “I feel out of my body.” The truth is, there are many things and experiences that happen in life that can leave us feeling disconnected and even fearful of our bodies.
Episode 15: What is your voice telling you?
Explore with us in imagining what clues our voice leaves for us in what is happening inside and how we can build a loving relationship with it. Is there a way to practice listening differently to discover places within yourself that long for your attention? Also, how can we explore sounds as a gateway into our growth and confidence?
Episode 14: How do you integrate breakthrough moments?
Have you ever had an ah-ha moment or a major life breakthrough? It could have been with your relationship with your health, your heart, your soul, or with others. What happens after that? In this episode, we muse about how to digest and integrate breakthrough experiences in our lives, how they affect how you see your “normal” life and relationships, and how they may be impacted.
Episode 13: What is the gap and why is it so important?
This is an episode I’ve been wanting to conjure for a while. In part, it represents one of the core values of living in which this podcast was born out of. There is a lot of talking about the space between and the magic in the gap. What is it that we are actually referring to, and how does it impact how you live?
