Free Strategy Session with Dr. CindyIn this deeply insightful episode, Dr. Cindy welcomes Dr. Shannan Crawford, psychologist, executive coach, founder of Crawford Clinics, and host of the Psychology of You Podcast. Together, they explore why so many successful, faith-filled individuals still struggle with burnout, anxiety, emotional exhaustion, chronic stress, and a lingering sense of disconnection.Drawing from two decades of clinical experience and her own personal healing journey, Dr. Crawford explains how unresolved grief, emotional suppression, and spiritual bypassing create internal fragmentation that impacts not only mental and emotional health but also physical well-being and the aging process itself.The conversation examines the powerful connection between chronic stress, inflammation, autoimmune conditions, nervous system dysregulation, and healthy aging. Dr. Shannan shares how healing hidden emotional wounds, integrating disowned parts of ourselves, and developing authentic intimacy with God can restore harmony within the body, soul, and spirit.Listeners will discover practical tools for identifying hidden stress, addressing emotional pain with compassion, and creating what Dr. Shannan calls an “internal board meeting” to begin the process of self-cohesion and true flourishing.You are invited to join the Re-Think Aging Community to access resources for your journey.Resources Mentioned In This Episode:Crawford ClinicsRestoring Self-Cohesion CourseThe Body Keeps the ScoreUnreasonable HospitalityJohn EldredgeBill JohnsonChris VallottonDanny SilkSubscribe now for new episodes on the first and third Mondays of each month, and receive inspiration to help you live with more clarity, peace, and purpose, from the inside out.Connect with Dr. Shannan:Website LinkedInFree Strategy Session LinktreePodcastConnect with Dr. Cindy: LinktreeStrategy SessionProduced by: Social ChameleonMedical Disclaimer:The Re-Think Aging Podcast features diverse expert perspectives.
