Episode 269 - Satya: Do it Right the First Time, Pt. 2

Join me this week for a deep dive into the art and science of Satya—speaking and acting from your authentic truth. In this episode, we blend practical psychology with spiritual wisdom to show how truth-telling can transform mental health, relationships, and everyday choices. You’ll hear how Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps uncover automatic thoughts that fuel inauthentic behaviors, and how DBT’s DEARMAN skills can help you request what you need while preserving connection. We’ll explore Interpersonal Neurobiology to understand how naming our feelings can regulate the nervous system, and how Internal Family Systems encourages curiosity about the parts inside us that resist honesty—so Self can lead with clarity and compassion. Plus, we’ll ground the conversation in spiritual wisdom about truth-telling from traditions around the world. You will find actionable steps, real-life scenarios, and guided reflections to practice Satya right away—whether you’re setting boundaries at work, navigating conflict at home, or simply learning to show up as your truest self. Tune in for practical tools and a thoughtful path toward greater peace and resilience.
