In this episode I interview Dr. Nicole LePera on how to heal your relationships, beginning with the one you have with yourself. Whether you struggle to maintain the kinds of relationships you want or are facing a specific challenge with a spouse, partner, parent, sibling, child, friend, or colleague—Dr. LePera teaches us how to break painful cycles and reconnect with the wisdom, appreciation, and compassion that lives in each of our hearts. It is our heart’s innate capacity to love that is the true source of all healing. When we tap into that power, we can become the love we seek.

Experiencing feelings of anxiety and sadness doesn’t mean you have a mental illness or that there is something wrong with your brain or that something is broken inside of you. Rather, it means you are having a perfectly normal - even helpful - response to an adverse situation. So in this episode, I share the truth about anxiety, and how to properly manage it so it doesn't spiral out of control. 🚨Get 15% OFF Brain-Ee bundle here: ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://drleaf.com⁠⁠⁠  📲Get 20% off my brain detox app with code NEUROCYCLE20 (only for first-time web subscriptions): ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://web.neurocycle.app/AuthSplash⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 💡OFFERS FROM OUR SPONSORS: -Kion: If you want to experience more energy and maintain your health as you age, check our Kion Aminos!

In this episode, I talk to DryBar founder and best-selling author Alli Webb about finding joy when your life is a mess, how to find yourself again after a crisis, dealing with imposter syndrome, and so much more! When Drybar and its world-famous blowouts took off seemingly overnight, she found herself surrounded by celebrity clients like Zooey Deschanel, Jennifer Garner, Gwyneth Paltrow, and Julia Roberts. She was named to multiple prestigious business lists, published a New York Times bestselling book—all before she turned forty. But it wasn't until her marriage fell apart, her teenage son entered rehab unexpectedly, and she no longer found meaning in the wildly successful business she had built that Alli realized she was spiraling into deep depression. She'd lost sight of what made her happy in favor of an aimless push to succeed above all. Something had to give. Piece by piece, Alli began to reinvent her personal and professional life with the goal of accepting her messy truth. She learned how to embrace the honest in lieu of the perfect and realized that most of life happens somewhere in the middle, between the laughter and the tears.

This began her journey toward better mental health and spreading positive messages about awareness — a path that’s been paved with lots of ice cream - Sue-Ellen literally turned a mental health journey into ice cream joy and today she joins me to tell me how she did this Check out Sad Girl Creamery here: https://www.sadgirlcreamery.com/ 💡OFFERS FROM OUR SPONSORS: -Babbel: So, if you want to learn a new language, try Babble today!

SHOW DESCRIPTION: Curiosity is so important because challenging your beliefs is how the mind-brain connection is structured to work, which is neuroplasticity. So we should be constantly looking at ourselves deeply, really thinking about the why behind what we believe, say, and do, and working on questioning this and growing- this is mind management in action. So, when you find something is wrong with the beliefs you have held for so long, and that has basically defined you, how do you find the strength and direction to make these changes, how do you forgive yourself and not let the shame and guilt destroy you, how do deal with the loss of friends and family when you change. In today’s podcast, I talk with Josh Harris, former pastor and unpublished author of the book about purity culture, How to Kiss Dating Goodbye, about exactly this- and about the 100% change he made in his life. Just a note to the listeners, we experienced some tech issues toward the end of this podcast, so you might notice a shift in audio quality. 💡OFFERS FROM OUR SPONSORS: -Neurohacker: If you’re in your late 20’s or older, adding Qualia Senolytic to your diet can play a CRUCIAL role in combating negative aging symptoms.

referring to my last comment! it was my device settings! Dr Leaf sounded like she was on speed 🤣. The settings must have accidentally shifted. all corrected now 😁

Has this podcast been sped up? it was unusually fast speech. may just be my devise but I'm wondering if it was a recording fault. only mentioning because it made it very difficult to listen to. 🤔

thank God for the fast forward! basically a giant infomercial with a few bits of somewhat useful information. geeze. almost not worth listening to. Definitely not worth it if you cannot fast forward.

How wonderful that I can now see what I've learned from you in practise! I listen with more deliberation and I can actually visualise the process of thinking, feeling and choosing. I am still an infant in this process so I am so excited at how much more enriched and stronger I will be as I become more practiced at neurocycling. Thank you so much, from me, my family and my friends because we are all gaining from me learning. ❤

Power is internal, silent inner knowing and claiming self. People will not be treated by you unless they have an issue in themselves. They will be drawn to you instead.

I was in an emotionally abusive relationship during my college years. In the beginning I also thought well he has never hit me physically but, that's the insidious nature of such relationships, they manipulate you, make you feel guilty and sudden outbursts of anger and breaking objects. It was a very traumatic experience of my life, I lost my self esteem and confidence. I'm on a healing journey.

the information provided on this podcast is so valuable, some people do not have access to mental health services at least not at such depth and understanding. It's very helpful, thank you

I think if Doctor let speakers finish their sentence and then she starts that's better...

Thank you for your wise words. Your honest, knowledgeable and heartfelt approach to managing the mind is the most helpful guide I have happened across in my years of trying to understand myself, my family and friends. Jacqui 😊

Thank you Caroline and Nicole. I have just discovered both of you after listening to Dr Will Cole's podcast. I have purchased Nicole's book and have just started to do the work. I have witnessed how the brain can change when you nurture your mind by consistently practising gratitude and focused breath work (that I started during covid restrictions in 2020 that left me open and vulnerable to 'stuff' that came up). I am so hopeful that by continuing my personal work I will be able to lead my fullest life and be the parent I need to be rather than the parent who, despite trying really hard, has become a version of her own parents (good and bad!). I think your approaches share commonalities and are complimentary. I can't wait to work through both books and am excited for being able to report back to you. Thank you for YOUR work. 😊 Jacqui
