Good Vibes Only!
Episode 121: "Good Vibes Only!" Putting a positive spin on things might be what we are often conditioned to do, but doing so disconnects us from the reality of all sorts of human experiences that can benefit us, even (and maybe especially) when they are difficult. Tawny and JDK range over several...

Don't Worry, Be Happy
Episode 120: "Don't Worry, Be Happy" When we tell ourselves that the "antidote" for worrying is to just "be happy," we do a lot to ourselves that isn't helpful in either dealing with worry or with the reality around and within us. In this episode, Tawny and JDK examine the roots of this popular...

Nothing Ever Changes
Episode 119: "Nothing Ever Changes" When things in life are not changing the way we want them to, we often can fall back on this particular BS story to "console" ourselves.

I Shouldn't Have To Explain That
Episode 118: "I Shouldn't Have To Explain That" Tawny and JDK untangle this particular knot of a BS story by looking at it from a relational perspective - what is going on inside us when we believe this, or say this, or hear this from someone else. What can we see in ourselves and in our...
-
I'm Too Old....
Episode 117: "I'm Too Old...." We get a great deal of messaging when we are young about needing to have everything about our life planned out, mapped out, anticipated, and more, as soon as possible. This doesn't leave room for the unexpected, for curiosity about new things, and so many of the...

Life Sucks
Episode 116: "Life Sucks" Tawny and JDK tackle this powerful, often "default" story many of us develop in life - that life just sucks. This BS story is one of the most limiting ones out there, so what might be a better framework for how we view our experiences and options in life? Instead of…

I've Got To Get This Right

I Can't Change Because of _________

-
They're Holding Me Back
Episode 113: "They're Holding Me Back" The belief that others are preventing us from doing the things we want to do can be a powerful one. But this story is particularly limiting and also harmful to our own sense of power over our decisions and our lives. Tawny and JDK untangle all the threads...

I Have Too Much To Do
Episode 112: "I Have Too Much to Do" Ever get "frozen in place" and overwhelmed by your to-do lists? Do you spend time worrying about the "what ifs" if the things on your calendar don't get met or done? If so, you are just like ALL of us! But that doesn't mean the story of "too much to do" is...

That's Just How I Am
Episode 110: "That's Just How I Am" Tawny and JDK take on this very subtle and often thorny BS story - one that is often hidden under some legitimate things about and within ourselves. How do we know if something is really "how we are" or we are actually afraid to try something new or look at a...
