Using Tools to Self Soothe and Calm Relationship Anxiety with McKell Kristen

Being in a relationship is a very vulnerable thing to do and for many of us, anxiety can bring up difficulties even in the most loving and supportive relationships. Our different attachment styles can cause a disconnect in communication and overthinking or overanalyzing can cause rifts in those bonds. In this episode, your host Lindsay Poelman speaks with Relationship Anxiety Expert  McKell Kristen about her work in helping her clients understand their patterns of anxiety, understand past trauma and how it may affect their current relationships, and how to stop doubting their current relationship, and so much more. McKell also shares how some of the tools taught in the Advanced Relationship Trauma Certification for Coaches have supported the ease she was seeking in her personal life, along with her business--and how it has affected her coaching!Listen to the full episode to learn more!You can find McKell Kristen here:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mckellkristen/Website: https://mckellkristen.com/Your host, certified life coach Lindsay Poelman started her journey of intentional healing started when she learned that her husband had been lying to her about pornography use for a greater part of their marriage.  After processing and accepting her circumstance more fully, she found coaching—which propelled her into a forward focused state of empowerment. Over the last four years of deep dive/fundamental coaching for women in betrayal (around porn use, spouses coming out around gender identity and sexuality, childhood neglect and abuse, substance abuse, infidelity, emotional abuse, domestic violence, institutional trauma, and more.), she has observed that if you’re working with humans, you can’t handpick clients who don’t carry trauma. This is why I have developed a Trauma-Informed approach to mindset work and relationships that take into account the nuance of being a human. She believes that being trauma informed is an essential standard of care for coaches. She created this podcast to support life coaches who recognize that there is so much more than mindset work when it comes to supporting their clients responsibly.Lindsay’s current program offerings:Looking for a new career as a Certified Trauma-Informed Coach?
