&lt;p&gt;It&apos;s important to acknowledge the harsh realities of winter.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;We must confront systemic racism and its impacts.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Finding joy is vital in a chaotic world.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Sound Bites:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&quot;I&apos;m blessed with what I have.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&quot;I refuse to be freezing now.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>Involving children in the kitchen helps them appreciate and understand food.</p>
<p>Food presentation is not as important as the nutrition and love that goes into it.</p>

<p>Tracking food without measurements or calorie counting can help identify patterns and understand the impact of food on energy levels. Understanding the connection between food, mood, and energy levels is crucial for overall well-being.</p>

<p>The Empower Her program focuses on making sustainable changes in the relationship with food, exercise, and mindset.</p>

<p><br /></p>
<p><strong>Sound Bites:</strong></p>
<p>"When we are confident with what we are eating and what we are putting in that body, our body, that confidence exudes in so many other areas of our life."</p>
<p>"Over three, four, five, six, seven weeks, the mood changes, energy level changes, the time that you're eating changes because what you're doing, right, it's very intuitive too because you're stopping for a second and you're saying, okay, wait a minute, how am I feeling right now? Yes. What is happening?"</p>
<p>"Once you understand too that it's a story about you, it's a story about your life and you get to rewrite that story every single day, that's powerful."</p>
<p>"It's so important for them to be able to do this because they feel guilty. They feel like they didn't do a good enough job, good enough quote unquote, right? With their own children, this is their second chance. They get to do this, you know, with that."</p>

<p>Sue Bowles is a survivor turned thriver as an author, speaker, and Master Certified Life Coach.

&lt;p&gt;In this episode of Car Confessions, Leesh reflects on the exhaustion and confusion she feels about the state of the world. She discusses the different realities people live in and the chaos and wildness that seems to be present in every aspect of life. Leesh questions the systems and ideologies that divide and oppress us, and wonders how we can create a world where everyone can thrive. She emphasizes the need for love, grace, and justice, and encourages small acts of kindness as a starting point for change.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Takeaways:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The world feels exhausting and chaotic, and it&apos;s important to acknowledge and address these feelings.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We all live in different realities and have different perspectives on the world.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;There is a need to question and challenge the systems and ideologies that divide and oppress us.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Creating a world where everyone can thrive requires love, grace, and justice.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Small acts of kindness can be a starting point for positive change.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Sound Bites:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&quot;It&apos;s more apparent than ever that we all live in different realities.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&quot;Everything that I thought was factual about how we operate on this earth as humans and whatever else... has either been completely altered to the benefit of those that are in power or basically this is it.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&quot;Someone created these ideologies. Someone created racism. Someone created sexism. Someone, someone, you&apos;re getting the point. Someone has created all these isms to divide us and to pin us against one another.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;

<p><strong>Keywords:</strong>
African spirituality, Ifa Orisha tradition, African traditions, diaspora, food, cola nut, rituals, suppression, empowerment, vibration, Christ consciousness, food, spirituality, African traditions, Ifa, rituals, offerings, hospitality, cultivation, ancestors, Christianity, African spirituality, health, education

<strong>Takeaways:</strong>
African spirituality and the Ifa Orisha tradition have been historically suppressed and maligned, but they are rich and empowering practices that have contributed to the world in various ways.
Food plays a significant role in African spiritual practices, and the cola nut is a central element in many rituals.
The suppression of African spirituality was a deliberate effort to strip African people of their power and maintain control over them.
Hospitality and feeding others are important cultural practices in African and Black American communities.
African spirituality is not exclusive to Christianity or any other religion; it is a way of embracing diverse spiritual practices.

<strong>Sound Bites:</strong>
"Food is a huge part of African spiritual practice."
"African spirituality has been maligned since the time we got here."
"African spirituality was actively taken away from us and presented as something bad in order to take away our power."
"Food represents life force and vital energy. It also represents our own energy because most of all the foods that we eat today, we have to use our own energy to cultivate them."
"We have a divinity called Arishaoko, who is the Arisha of the farm, the Arisha of cultivation. And his whole energy is about making the land grow, right? To make sure that we have food, to make sure that we're able to eat."

Emotional Eating...Am I Avoiding The Signs? Michelle Lall Offers Guidance and Insight! ]]></title><description><![CDATA[<p>Alicia's emotional eating journey has been all over the place!  She's either been on the "right" track or completely off the rales!</p>
<p>This conversation with Michelle provides some understanding and peace around how avoiding emotional eating habits must be addressed! In order to change the long-time habits of emotional eating, we have to acknowledge they exist and find ways to create positive change in our everyday eating rituals!</p>
<p>Michelle Lall is a Toronto-based Certified Holistic Nutritionist who works with women who are experiencing emotional eating and body issues. She founded LALL Nutrition as a way to support women to reclaim their relationship with themselves, their bodies, and health in a holistic way.</p>
<p>Michelle helps her clients to get to the root cause of their emotional issues so that they can have a healthy and happy relationship with food and their body that actually creates results with their health goals.</p>
<p>Michelle combines her solid grasp of biological chemistry, experience as a certified high school teacher, background training in holistic nutrition + somatic psychotherapy to support her clients in developing a sustainable way to achieve health on all levels; physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually.</p>
<p>From a young age, Michelle wanted to cure HIV and cancer. She pursued a specialist degree in biological chemistry in an effort to go down this path. At the same time, she struggled with poor body image, low confidence, emotional eating, acne, and weight gain. She spent the better part of high school and into her early 20’s yo-yo dieting, over-exercising, having disordered eating + emotional eating.</p>
<p>At some point, she hit rock bottom from all the restrictions and mental anguish and had to find a better way.</p>
<p>She was on a path to finding more purpose and passion in her career. She worked as an analytical chemist, and a chemistry TA, taught in Korea, worked in administrative research at the hospital, and pursued a teaching degree. When all career paths seemed to miss that passion she wanted she followed the next intuition she had.</p>
<p>These 2 paths merged when she started to heal her relationship with food, her body, and her emotional eating. She was inspired and decided to enroll in a Holistic Nutrition school to help others do the same.</p>
<p>Over time she has continued expanding her understanding of trauma and resolving emotions from the root in a 2-year program in somatic psychotherapy to further help clients get to the root of their emotional eating.</p>
<p>All of her training and trial and error experience lead her to this career path and the creation of her signature program <a href="http://lallnutrition.com/emotional-eating-evolution-program/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">The Emotional Eating Evolution Program</a>.</p>

&lt;p&gt;In this episode of Car Confessions, Leesh discusses her daily life, the importance of maintaining personal well-being amidst global challenges, and the rituals she practices to stay centered. She emphasizes the need to choose joy, practice self-care, and advocate for change without compromising one&apos;s own mental health. Leesh reflects on the concept of liberation and how it varies for each individual, encouraging listeners to take personal responsibility in creating a positive impact in their lives and the world.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Keywords:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;self-care, mental health, joy, personal growth, meditation, balance, global issues, positivity, liberation, daily rituals&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Takeaways:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It&apos;s important to maintain good energy despite external chaos.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Meditation and exercise are crucial for personal well-being.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Choosing joy is a conscious decision we can all make.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Self-care is essential for being an advocate for others.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Liberation means living without limits and causing harm to none.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Negativity can be overwhelming, but we can choose our responses.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Daily rituals help in reclaiming personal power and focus.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We must acknowledge global issues while also finding joy.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Change requires effort and personal responsibility.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Every day is an opportunity to be better and make a difference.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Sound Bites:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&quot;I feel good despite all the things happening.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&quot;It&apos;s crucial to take care of ourselves.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&quot;Start choosing joy in your life.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Takeaways:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A break is essential for mental well-being.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Self-awareness can lead to healthier interactions.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Childhood experiences shape adult communication styles.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It&apos;s important to take ownership of personal choices.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Codependency can hinder personal growth.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Creating meaningful experiences is more important than perfection.&lt;/p&gt;

Sound Bites:
"I have never taken one injection, not one pill. Yes, I've had steroids over the years, but not for that. It's been for sinus infections, voice things, but specifically for MS."
"We're so reliant on Western medicine and what it offers us. And that's fine. Listen, I'm not taking away from that from anybody because it does help certain people. And if that's what works for you, great. But for a lot of people that want to try something else, there are options."
"It took so much blood, sweat and tears, but we are here and it has been amazing to be a part of an original piece."

Sound Bites:
&quot;I have never taken one injection, not one pill. Yes, I&apos;ve had steroids over the years, but not for that. It&apos;s been for sinus infections, voice things, but specifically for MS.&quot;
&quot;We&apos;re so reliant on Western medicine and what it offers us. And that&apos;s fine. Listen, I&apos;m not taking away from that from anybody because it does help certain people. And if that&apos;s what works for you, great. But for a lot of people that want to try something else, there are options.&quot;
&quot;It took so much blood, sweat and tears, but we are here and it has been amazing to be a part of an original piece.&quot;

She helps women who have tried every diet under the sun optimise their health and achieve long lasting weight loss by improving metabolism and managing mindset so they can reduce the effects of chronic disease, have more energy and confidence and stop living life on the sidelines.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Dr Lucy has a significant interest in metabolic health, mental health and menopause &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;She was an “expert dieter” and an “expert emotional eater”. She developed obesity, fatty liver and pre-diabetes. As a medical doctor, this was mortifying.  She has completely abandoned traditional dieting and embraces a real food lifestyle. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Dr Lucy is a medical doctor, a lifestyle medicine physician, and is trained in many facets of psychological medicine including hypnotherapy. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;She runs online holistic health and weight programs with her colleague Dr Mary Barson. They have now helped thousands of women reclaim their health. They are both very real and relatable and embody their company name - Real Life Medicine&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Summary:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Dr. Lucy discusses menopause and the symptoms associated with it, such as hot flashes, mood swings, weight gain, and brain fog. She explains that menopause is a natural process where estrogen levels decrease, cortisol and insulin levels increase, and metabolic health becomes important. In this conversation, Dr. Lucy and Alicia discuss metabolic health, insulin resistance, and the impact of menopause on women&apos;s health.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Keywords:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;menopause, symptoms, hot flashes, mood swings, weight gain, brain fog, metabolic health, lifestyle changes, dieting, insulin resistance, metabolic syndrome, obesity, hormonal imbalances, hormone replacement therapy&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Takeaways:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Menopause is a natural process where estrogen levels decrease, cortisol and insulin levels increase, and metabolic health becomes important.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Symptoms of menopause include hot flashes, mood swings, weight gain, and brain fog.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Obesity is a symptom of underlying hormonal imbalances, not the cause of health issues.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Improving metabolic health involves reducing insulin levels, improving sleep, managing stress, and engaging in strength training.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) can be beneficial for menopausal women, but it should be used in conjunction with lifestyle changes and under medical supervision.&lt;/p&gt;

Chatting About Dental Health with Elizabeth Powell]]></title><description><![CDATA[<p>Alicia was honored to catch up and learn more about dental health with her friend Dr. Elizabeth Powell! </p>
<p>In this week's episode, Elizabeth shares some great tips on how to promote dental health during the Halloween season, as well as in everyday life!</p>
<p>Dr. Elizabeth Powell currently serves as the Clinical Director of Dentistry at a Community Health Center in Boston, MA  She has over 10 years of experience working in community-based oral health programs treating underserved populations in both rural and urban settings. Dr. Powell received her Doctor of Dental Surgery degree from New York University College of Dentistry and completed a General Practice Residency at Bronx Lebanon Hospital Center in New York.  She also holds a Masters in Public Health from The George Washington University.  She recently completed a dual residency in Dental Public Health and Pediatric Dentistry at Boston University.  Dr. Powell’s commitment to public health dentistry led her to the Boston area where she hopes to continue to be an integral part of the movement to increase access to dental care and improve oral health outcomes. Her interests include teaching dental residents and student externs and partnership development that promotes oral health integration.</p>

<p>Alicia and Christina Jones discuss the concept of liberation and the importance of unlearning societal conditioning. They share personal experiences of feeling the need to conform to certain standards and the process of liberating themselves from those expectations. The conversation explores the need for Black people to define their own culture and not rely on external validation. The conversation emphasizes the importance of recognizing and addressing privilege, engaging in productive struggle, and fostering healing and understanding.</p>

<p>liberation, unlearning, societal conditioning, conformity, Black culture, education, individuality, mindset, thriving, authenticity, inclusivity, diversity, equity, inclusion, professional spaces, racism, oppression, sense of belonging, workplace, privilege, productive struggle, healing, understanding</p>
<p><br /></p>
<p><strong>Takeaways:</strong></p>
<p>Liberation involves unlearning societal conditioning and questioning the standards and expectations placed on individuals.</p>
<p>Black people should define their own culture and not rely on external validation or stereotypes portrayed in the media.</p>
<p>Liberation requires embracing individuality and developing a mindset that allows for personal growth and success.</p>
<p>Diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts should focus on addressing racism and oppression to ensure that people can be their true selves in the workplace.</p>
<p>Recognizing and addressing privilege is essential for fostering understanding and creating a more equitable society.</p>
<p>Engaging in productive struggle and discomfort is necessary for learning and growth.</p>
<p>Healing is a vital part of the DEI process, and everyone has a responsibility to contribute to the dialogue and support one another.</p>
<p><br /></p>
<p><strong>Sound Bites:</strong></p>

<p>"Labels are damning. That's why I don't like putting labels on people."</p>
<p>"Looking externally to be validated by a group of people who may never see you as human."</p>

&lt;p&gt;Alicia and Christina Jones discuss the concept of liberation and the importance of unlearning societal conditioning. They share personal experiences of feeling the need to conform to certain standards and the process of liberating themselves from those expectations. The conversation explores the need for Black people to define their own culture and not rely on external validation. The conversation emphasizes the importance of recognizing and addressing privilege, engaging in productive struggle, and fostering healing and understanding.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Keywords:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;liberation, unlearning, societal conditioning, conformity, Black culture, education, individuality, mindset, thriving, authenticity, inclusivity, diversity, equity, inclusion, professional spaces, racism, oppression, sense of belonging, workplace, privilege, productive struggle, healing, understanding&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Takeaways:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Liberation involves unlearning societal conditioning and questioning the standards and expectations placed on individuals.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Black people should define their own culture and not rely on external validation or stereotypes portrayed in the media.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Liberation requires embracing individuality and developing a mindset that allows for personal growth and success.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts should focus on addressing racism and oppression to ensure that people can be their true selves in the workplace.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Recognizing and addressing privilege is essential for fostering understanding and creating a more equitable society.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Engaging in productive struggle and discomfort is necessary for learning and growth.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Healing is a vital part of the DEI process, and everyone has a responsibility to contribute to the dialogue and support one another.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Sound Bites:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&quot;Liberation comes from being aware enough to recognize when you need to let things go that no longer serve you.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&quot;Labels are damning. That&apos;s why I don&apos;t like putting labels on people.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&quot;Looking externally to be validated by a group of people who may never see you as human.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&quot;Joy is not something you can think about, it&apos;s something you have to feel.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In this episode of Car Confessions, Leesh shares her journey of self-reflection and the importance of taking breaks to regroup. She emphasizes the significance of human connection, especially in today&apos;s fast-paced world, and discusses her experiences with auditioning and personal growth. Leesh encourages listeners to spread love and positivity, even amidst life&apos;s challenges, and to choose joy in uncertain times.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Keywords:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;self-reflection, connection, personal growth, auditioning, mental health, social media, positivity, love, community, resilience&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Takeaways:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Taking breaks is essential for mental health.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Self-reflection helps in understanding one&apos;s path.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Connection with others enriches the human experience.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Auditioning can be a fulfilling and exciting process.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It&apos;s important to engage genuinely with people.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Social media can both connect and isolate us.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Spreading love and positivity is crucial in tough times.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Choosing joy is a powerful decision.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We must support each other through hardships.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Grace towards oneself is as important as towards others.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Sound Bites:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&quot;I literally needed some time to myself.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&quot;What am I doing, where am I going?&quot;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&quot;I felt so good about it.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In this episode of Car Confessions, Leesh reflects on the recent presidential debate and shares her thoughts on the current state of politics in America. She expresses her frustration with the political system and calls for accountability from politicians. Leesh also discusses the possibility of Kamala Harris becoming the next president and questions whether true liberation can be achieved within the existing system. She emphasizes the importance of self-care, education, and spreading love and grace during these challenging times.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Keywords:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;presidential debate, politics, accountability, Kamala Harris, liberation, self-care, education, love, grace&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Takeaways:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The recent presidential debate was bizarre and seemed calculated to make Trump look bad.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Politicians need to be held accountable for their actions and prioritize the needs of the people.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The presidency may not bring true liberation, and change should also be sought at the local and state levels.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Self-care, education, and spreading love and grace are essential during these challenging times.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Sound Bites:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&quot;This was all calculated. Like it was meant for Trump to look a hot mess.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&quot;We need to call them out on this and be like, look, we&apos;re paying for you to be in these offices. Act like it.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&quot;I&apos;m not optimistic that it&apos;s going to be something different. I think it is still business as usual.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Chapters:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;00:00 Introduction and Frustration with New York Drivers&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;02:13 Reflecting on the Presidential Debate&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;06:47 Questioning the State of American Politics&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;10:51 The Need for Accountability and Refunds&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;14:33 The Possibility of Kamala Harris as President&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;16:19 Doubts about True Liberation within the System&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;18:19 The Challenges of Third Party Candidates&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;19:19 Focusing on Self-Care and Education&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;21:04 Finding Beauty in the Unraveling of America&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;23:15 Conclusion and Parking the Car&lt;/p&gt;

No emotion is inherently bad; it&apos;s about our response.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Collective healing is essential for progress.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Stereotypes can hinder authentic expression of emotions.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Authenticity in advocacy allows for diverse approaches.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Connecting with ancestors can provide valuable insights.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Acknowledging pain is a crucial part of healing.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Resilience involves swimming with emotions, not drowning in them.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Perseverance is key to staying true to oneself.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;It&apos;s important to create safe spaces for dialogue.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Healing can come from sharing experiences and support.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Chapters:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;00:00 Introduction and Context of the Conversation&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;05:59 Navigating Workplace Tensions&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;12:02 Self-Reflection and Personal Growth&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;17:55 Addressing Division and Finding Common Ground&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;23:27 Collective Healing and Social Responsibility&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;29:51 Lessons from the Past: Connecting with Ancestors&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;34:53 Strategic Resilience: Swimming with Emotions&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Stay connected with Kimberly!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Website: &lt;a href=&quot;https://revive2thrivewc.com/&quot; rel=&quot;noopener noreferrer nofollow&quot;&gt;⁠https://revive2thrivewc.com/⁠&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Subscribe to The Eating Me Podcast on YouTube!!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://youtube.com/@aliciachristian9226?si=lndTSV7K9miNuetj&quot; rel=&quot;noopener noreferrer nofollow&quot;&gt;⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://youtube.com/@aliciachristian9226?si=lndTSV7K9miNuetj⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Stay in contact with Alicia! &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.aliciachristian.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ &quot; rel=&quot;noopener noreferrer nofollow&quot;&gt;⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.aliciachristian.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Facebook: &lt;a href=&quot;⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.facebook.com/Divaleesh⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ &quot; rel=&quot;noopener noreferrer nofollow&quot;&gt;⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.facebook.com/Divaleesh⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.instagram.com/thealiciachristian/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠&quot; rel=&quot;noopener noreferrer nofollow&quot;&gt;⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/thealiciachristian/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;TikTok: &lt;a href=&quot;⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.tiktok.com/@thealiciachristian?lang=en⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠&quot; rel=&quot;noopener noreferrer nofollow&quot;&gt;⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.tiktok.com/@thealiciachristian?lang=en⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In this episode of Car Confessions, Leesh discusses her experiences living on the East Coast, shares insights from a recent audition, and delves into the controversial incident involving a CEO and a young man named Luigi. She critiques the healthcare system, emphasizes the importance of unity and revolution in America, and expresses pride in her heritage while advocating for collective action to address societal issues.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Keywords:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;East Coast, auditions, healthcare, Luigi incident, unity, revolution, pride, American identity&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Takeaways:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The East Coast has a unique experience with early sunsets.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Auditioning can be a fulfilling experience regardless of the outcome.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The incident involving Luigi raises many questions about timing and intent.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Money is a social construct that influences our lives significantly.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The healthcare system often fails to support those in need.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Unity among citizens is crucial for societal change.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Pride in one&apos;s heritage can coexist with a desire for national unity.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The current state of America requires a collective awakening.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We must address the systemic issues in our society to heal.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Art and culture play a vital role in expressing identity and community.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Sound Bites:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&quot;This is a wild time to be alive.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&quot;Money is not even real.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&quot;We are all we have.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&quot;I love being black.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&quot;Nothing&apos;s gonna stop us now.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>Dr. Nashira Kayode is native to beautiful Southern California. She has spent the last 17 years as a professional in the mental health field as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW). She obtained a PhD in Public Policy and Administration with a Specialization in Criminal Justice in 2017 and a Master of Social Work (MSW) in 2008. expert in Social Work with the Board of Behavioral Sciences (BBS) for the State of California. I have provided and directed mental health services throughout California in state, county, court, and private agencies. I have performed various roles throughout my career in mental health including forensic expert, trainer, direct service provider, program developer, manager, and director. I created Kayode Psychotherapy and Consultation in 2017 (previously Funn Psychotherapy and Consultation) and have several published works. In my personal time, I enjoy traveling with my husband and 3 children. I am an enthusiastic basketball mom, so most evenings are spent cheering on my boys in the gym!</p>

&lt;p&gt;In this episode of Car Confessions, Leesh reflects on the current state of the world and her own personal experiences. She discusses her thoughts on the recent election results, the flaws in the political system, and the need for change. Leesh also talks about the importance of finding joy and happiness in life, despite the challenges we face. She encourages listeners to fight for equal rights and to take time to enjoy themselves. Overall, the episode explores themes of activism, self-care, and the pursuit of a more equitable society.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Keywords:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;elections, political system, change, joy, happiness, equal rights, activism, self-care, equitable society&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Takeaways:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The flaws in the political system can be disheartening, but it&apos;s important to continue fighting for change.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Finding joy and happiness in life is crucial, especially in the midst of challenging times.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It&apos;s essential to fight for equal rights and advocate for marginalized communities.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Taking time for self-care and enjoying life is necessary to sustain the fight for justice.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Creating a more equitable society requires a shift in mindset and a rejection of scarcity mentality.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Sound Bites:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&quot;What is democracy? Have we ever been in a democracy in this country?&quot;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&quot;Can we try something different, like expressing more love, compassion?&quot;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&quot;Take some time to enjoy yourself. Do some things that you love doing.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Collaborating with Heroes: The Mind of a Saint with Raheem Nelson]]></title><description><![CDATA[<p><strong>Summary:</strong></p>
<p>Alicia reunites with Raheem Nelson on the podcast! Raheem talks about his work as a curator and graphic recorder. They discuss his recent art show in Milford, Connecticut, which showcased the work of artists of color and created a safe space for conversation and connection. The conversation then shifts to Raheem's collaboration with rapper Skyzoo on a series of illustrations based on his album 'The Mind of a Saint'.

Raheem also shares his passion for sustainable fashion and his approach to personal style, drawing inspiration from different time periods and using fashion as a form of self-expression. The episode concludes with a discussion about the liberating experience of living one's dreams and collaborating with one's heroes. </p>

&lt;p&gt;Alicia reunites with Raheem Nelson on the podcast! Raheem talks about his work as a curator and graphic recorder. They discuss his recent art show in Milford, Connecticut, which showcased the work of artists of color and created a safe space for conversation and connection. The conversation then shifts to Raheem&apos;s collaboration with rapper Skyzoo on a series of illustrations based on his album &apos;The Mind of a Saint&apos;. Raheem shares the inspiration behind one of the pieces, titled &apos;Purity&apos;, which explores the character Franklin Saint from the TV show Snowfall meeting the Nipsey Hussle family. Raheem also shares his passion for sustainable fashion and his approach to personal style, drawing inspiration from different time periods and using fashion as a form of self-expression. The episode concludes with a discussion about the liberating experience of living one&apos;s dreams and collaborating with one&apos;s heroes. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Be intentional about the information you consume on social media&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Change your algorithm to promote positivity and enlightenment&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Take control of your mental well-being and choose empowerment Food choices can have a significant impact on our physical and mental health.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Changing habits takes time, and it&apos;s important to be patient with ourselves.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Introducing new foods and making small changes can lead to a healthier diet.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Being prepared for emergencies and having a mindset of self-sufficiency is valuable.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Words and positive affirmations can influence our mindset and behavior. Acknowledge and learn from trauma, rather than reveling in it.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Create a stable home environment to break the cycle of constant transition.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Make choices that lead to positive change and break cycles.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Small actions and changes in mindset can create significant transformation.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Sound Bites:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&quot;We are created in such a way that we have everything in us and around us in nature to heal us, to make us better, to help us be better.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&quot;Focus on what you have rather than what you don&apos;t have.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&quot;Don&apos;t allow awareness of the world&apos;s problems to soak into your spirit.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&quot;Cereal was like my thing.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&quot;It&apos;s nutritionally naked.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&quot;It was a whole reset for my system.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&quot;It&apos;s learning the same things they learn to condition us. It&apos;s the same things we need to learn to recondition ourselves to the things that are valuable and will help us to grow and be better.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&quot;Your trauma allowed you basically to be in this space to prepare and not so much out of fear, but it&apos;s like, I know what this is like.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&quot;Acknowledge the trauma, know that it was hurtful to you, but also where was the lesson in all of this?&quot;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>Hailing from Calgary, Alberta Canada Aime Hutton is a true miracle survivor. Being born 3 months early in 1976 was just the start of the challenges Aime has overcome in her lifetime.

Finally, they discuss the use of cacao as a healing medicine and the importance of stillness and self-care.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Keywords:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;performance art, Afro-Indigenous heritage, Mayan goddess, cacao, heart medicine, ancestral lineage, decolonization, relationships, colonialism, white supremacy, healing, self-discovery, relationships, queerness, power, fetishization, stillness, self-care&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Takeaways:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Christina Pitter&apos;s performance installation and ceremony &apos;Ixchel, We Are Still Here, Remember This Medicine&apos; explores her Afro-Indigenous heritage and centers around the Mayan goddess of fertility and medicine.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Cacao is used as a heart medicine in Christina&apos;s work and is connected to her ancestral lineage.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Christina&apos;s production &apos;The Ashe Collective: Decolonizing My Vagina&apos; examines her relationships with cis white hetero men and the impact of colonialism and white supremacy on her attraction to them.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Cacao can be used as a healing medicine and practicing stillness and self-care is crucial for overall well-being.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Sound Bites:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&quot;I trust that what I&apos;m doing is being received and it&apos;s up to folks to take it from there. That I cannot change whole swaths of people, but I can make offerings from the heart in the attempt to heal the heart space that I believe you all need collectively as human beings.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&quot;We come from the earth. It is the very thing that gives us life. We have healed from it. And yes, I&apos;m grateful for all technologies and advances that have been here. And everything goes back to the land.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Chapters:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;00:00 Introduction and Connection&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;03:23 The Importance of Holding Space for New Work&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;08:28 Exploring &apos;The Ashe Collective: Decolonizing My Vagina&apos;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;23:05 Decolonizing Relationships and Attraction&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;25:33 Addressing Power Dynamics and Fetishization&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;29:05 The Significance of Authentic Friendships&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;34:07 Cacao as a Healing Medicine&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;37:09 Practicing Stillness and Self-Care&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In this episode, Leesh discusses the cold weather in New York, her disinterest in the upcoming inauguration, and the political climate surrounding it. She emphasizes the importance of celebrating Martin Luther King Jr. Day and expresses empathy for those affected by the recent fires in LA. Additionally, she explores the emergence of new social media platforms as alternatives to TikTok, highlighting the need for community support and understanding amidst political and social challenges.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Keywords:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;New York, cold weather, political disengagement, inauguration, MLK Day, LA fires, TikTok ban, social media, empathy, community support&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Takeaways:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It&apos;s cold in New York, and staying home sounds ideal.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Disengagement from politics can be a healthy choice.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Celebrating MLK Day is more meaningful than political events.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Empathy for those affected by disasters is crucial.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;New social media platforms are emerging as alternatives.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;People often get too invested in celebrity politics.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It&apos;s important to focus on personal well-being and community.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The political climate can feel like a reality show gone wrong.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We should change the narrative around negativity in society.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Support for each other is essential in challenging times.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Sound Bites:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&quot;It&apos;s really cold in New York.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&quot;Wouldn&apos;t it be great to just stay home?&quot;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&quot;Keep your head up, stay grounded.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Chapters:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;00:00 Chilly New York Vibes&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;02:58 Political Disengagement and Inauguration Thoughts&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;09:45 Celebrating MLK Day&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;13:59 Empathy for LA Fire Victims&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;14:55 Exploring New Social Media Alternatives&lt;/p&gt;

Talking Sugar, Cavities, and Teeth with the Amazing Dr. Evy Migadaki!!]]></title><description><![CDATA[<p>Alicia had the pleasure to sit down with her dentist, Dr. Evy, and discuss how sugar continues to cause dental health issues for all ages. </p>
<p>Dr.Evy’s dental journey started at Brown University where she earned an honors degree in Human Biology and completed an independent research study on the access of dental care in nursing homes. She continued at Tufts School of Dental Medicine where she learned to treat the mouth as part of the human body and to focus on preventing problems rather than just treating them. After graduating she proceeded to complete two postgraduate programs from NYU College of Dentistry and Columbia University School of Dental Medicine.</p>

&lt;p&gt;Dr.Evy’s dental journey started at Brown University where she earned an honors degree in Human Biology and completed an independent research study on the access of dental care in nursing homes. She continued at Tufts School of Dental Medicine where she learned to treat the mouth as part of the human body and to focus on preventing problems rather than just treating them. After graduating she proceeded to complete two postgraduate programs from NYU College of Dentistry and Columbia University School of Dental Medicine.&lt;/p&gt;

Josephine always considered herself a mother of 3 boys, but she soon discovered two of her children were trans and identified as girls/women.</p>
<p>Josephine is a BACP Accredited Counsellor and a business mentor who helps other counselors to market their practice. Her career has centered around helping parents cope with change and supporting people in difficult circumstances such as baby loss, infertility, and domestic abuse.</p>

<p>Meet Chef Bobo D, a self-made Vegan Chef who hails out of Kingston, Jamaica. Chef Bobo D is no stranger to the kitchen. He grew up in his Granny’s Hagley Park home where he watched and learned all of her secret recipes. Since then, Chef Bobo D has traveled throughout West Africa and Jamaica to learn how to blend and mix seasonings to make every meal a cultural explosion. Today, he offers a weekly meal prep using his recipes from his new recipe book. A passion for good food, Chef Bobo D has dibbled and dabbled with the idea of bringing his flavors to the world. Always preparing meals for family events, birthday parties and other occasions, everyone has encouraged Chef to step out. </p>

<p>“Love and appreciation are identical vibrations. Appreciation is the vibration of alignment with who-you-are. Appreciation is the absence of everything that feels bad and the presence of everything that feels good. When you focus upon what you want – when you tell the story of how you want your life to be – you will come closer and closer to the vicinity of appreciation, and when you reach it, it will pull you toward all things that you consider to be good in a very powerful way.” </p>
<p>— Abraham Hicks</p>

&lt;p&gt;“Love and appreciation are identical vibrations. Appreciation is the vibration of alignment with who-you-are. Appreciation is the absence of everything that feels bad and the presence of everything that feels good. When you focus upon what you want – when you tell the story of how you want your life to be – you will come closer and closer to the vicinity of appreciation, and when you reach it, it will pull you toward all things that you consider to be good in a very powerful way.” &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;— Abraham Hicks&lt;/p&gt;

Alicia had such an amazing time catching up with Goody as she educated us on how food and other practices can enhance our sex lives! &lt;/p&gt;

<p>Alicia and Kat discuss the concept of living free and the journey towards freedom. They explore the idea of being authentic and true to oneself, breaking free from societal expectations and conditioning. The conversation highlights the significance of feeling emotions and the healing process, and the interconnectedness of all beings in the pursuit of freedom. They also discuss the importance of embracing both the light and dark aspects of ourselves. </p>
<p><br /></p>
<p><strong>Keywords:</strong></p>
<p>freedom, authenticity, body liberation, boundaries, emotions, healing, interconnectedness, shadow work, healing, authenticity, self-compassion, trauma, emotions, holding space, empowerment</p>
<p><br /></p>
<p><strong>Takeaways:</strong></p>
<p>Living free means being authentic and true to oneself, breaking free from societal expectations and conditioning.</p>
<p>Body liberation involves accepting and loving oneself as they are, without shame or the need to conform to external standards.</p>
<p>Setting boundaries is essential in the journey to freedom, even if it means potentially losing connections with others.</p>
<p>Feeling and honoring emotions is a crucial part of the healing process and leads to greater freedom and authenticity.</p>
<p>The pursuit of freedom is interconnected with the collective awakening of humanity and the need to be the most authentic version of oneself. Embracing both the light and dark aspects of ourselves is essential for healing and living authentically.</p>
<p>Shadow work and trauma work allow us to make space for our full humanity and embrace all of our experiences.</p>
<p>Being nice and being kind are not the same thing; true kindness involves telling our whole truth and setting boundaries.</p>
<p>Self-compassion is a powerful tool in the healing journey, allowing us to offer grace and acceptance to ourselves.</p>
<p>Holding space for others and empowering them to access their own power can be transformative in their healing process.</p>
<p><br /></p>
<p><strong>Sound Bites:</strong></p>
<p>"Freedom means I unlocked that inner dialogue. I canceled it out. I healed it. I transmuted it. Whatever language resonates with you, that's what the fuck I did."</p>
<p>"When we're more authentic, when we live in an energy of freedom, humans that have that similar resonance will really respond. People will respond to it that have that similar resonance."</p>
<p>"I belong to myself more completely and more fully now. And so the other human beings that truly see me for me, those are the ones that start to show up."</p>
<p>"Being nice and being kind, I'm realizing are two different things. Yeah. Fuck nice."</p>
<p>"The most kind thing I can be is to tell you my whole truth because I care enough about a relationship with you that I will not pretend with you."</p>
<p>"I am powerful enough to clear enough of my trauma, enough of this shit, and to do the next thing that feels shiny."</p>

&lt;p&gt;Alicia and Kat discuss the concept of living free and the journey towards freedom. They explore the idea of being authentic and true to oneself, breaking free from societal expectations and conditioning. The conversation highlights the significance of feeling emotions and the healing process, and the interconnectedness of all beings in the pursuit of freedom. They also discuss the importance of embracing both the light and dark aspects of ourselves. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Keywords:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;freedom, authenticity, body liberation, boundaries, emotions, healing, interconnectedness, shadow work, healing, authenticity, self-compassion, trauma, emotions, holding space, empowerment&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Takeaways:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Living free means being authentic and true to oneself, breaking free from societal expectations and conditioning.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Body liberation involves accepting and loving oneself as they are, without shame or the need to conform to external standards.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Setting boundaries is essential in the journey to freedom, even if it means potentially losing connections with others.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Feeling and honoring emotions is a crucial part of the healing process and leads to greater freedom and authenticity.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The pursuit of freedom is interconnected with the collective awakening of humanity and the need to be the most authentic version of oneself. Embracing both the light and dark aspects of ourselves is essential for healing and living authentically.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Shadow work and trauma work allow us to make space for our full humanity and embrace all of our experiences.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Being nice and being kind are not the same thing; true kindness involves telling our whole truth and setting boundaries.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Self-compassion is a powerful tool in the healing journey, allowing us to offer grace and acceptance to ourselves.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Holding space for others and empowering them to access their own power can be transformative in their healing process.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Sound Bites:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&quot;Freedom means I unlocked that inner dialogue. I canceled it out. I healed it. I transmuted it. Whatever language resonates with you, that&apos;s what the fuck I did.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&quot;When we&apos;re more authentic, when we live in an energy of freedom, humans that have that similar resonance will really respond. People will respond to it that have that similar resonance.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&quot;I belong to myself more completely and more fully now. And so the other human beings that truly see me for me, those are the ones that start to show up.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&quot;Being nice and being kind, I&apos;m realizing are two different things. Yeah. Fuck nice.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&quot;The most kind thing I can be is to tell you my whole truth because I care enough about a relationship with you that I will not pretend with you.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&quot;I am powerful enough to clear enough of my trauma, enough of this shit, and to do the next thing that feels shiny.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Janessa shared how she got started in astrology and healing practices after working in the field of nutrition.</p>
<p>Janessa is an Intuitive Astrologer and Holistic Healing Practitioner. She uses her extensive training and personal healing experiences to help guide metaphysically curious Women to find their way back into alignment with their soul's purpose and discover their truest nature. </p>
<p>She helps women navigate their spiritual awareness and self-healing journey, and teaches them to embody the essence of who they really are, through understanding and loving their cosmic design by learning how their Astrological birth charts are a map for healing and embodiment of the soul. She believes that we are all primarily energetic beings and that our physical bodies &amp; minds hurt and suffer as a result of being disconnected from and dishonoring our cosmic DNA. Bringing awareness to our "metaphysical genetics" will teach us to know ourselves on the deepest level so that we can learn to fuel our energy bodies with the mystical nutrients we crave. </p>

Therapy In the Black Community with Shawnnell Batiste]]></title><description><![CDATA[<p>Alicia and Shawnnell had an amazing conversation that focused on mental health in the Black community. Shawnnell is such a wealth of knowledge and it was a pleasure to have her on the podcast!</p>
<p>Shawnnell is Your Barrier Breaking, High Accountability, No Bullshitting licensed professional counselor. She founded Choosing Empowerment with the aim of removing barriers that hinder marginalized and disenfranchised communities from seeking mental health assistance. Their primary focus is on providing mental health and wellness services to groups such as BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, foster/adoptive families, and formerly incarcerated individuals who experience marginalization and disenfranchisement. Choosing Empowerment provides virtual psychotherapy to people of all ages in Louisiana, Texas, and internationally, and extends mental health and wellness life coaching services beyond the boundaries of their licensed states.</p>
<p><br />At Choosing Empowerment LLC, the foundation is based on the power of choice and healthy relationships. Shawnnell takes her responsibilities seriously as a mental health advocate, speaker, author, and community leader. She remains committed to being honest, informative, straightforward, compassionate, non-judgmental, and understanding. The organization believes in promoting accountability and empowering clients and those around them to put in the necessary work to heal and become their best and highest selves. Choosing Empowerment understands that breaking cycles is difficult and offers support and encouragement throughout clients' wellness journeys. They welcome anyone who wishes to start or continue their healing process in the safe space provided at The Cyclebreaking Village.<br /></p>

Shawnnell is such a wealth of knowledge and it was a pleasure to have her on the podcast!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Shawnnell is Your Barrier Breaking, High Accountability, No Bullshitting licensed professional counselor. She founded Choosing Empowerment with the aim of removing barriers that hinder marginalized and disenfranchised communities from seeking mental health assistance. Their primary focus is on providing mental health and wellness services to groups such as BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, foster/adoptive families, and formerly incarcerated individuals who experience marginalization and disenfranchisement. Choosing Empowerment provides virtual psychotherapy to people of all ages in Louisiana, Texas, and internationally, and extends mental health and wellness life coaching services beyond the boundaries of their licensed states.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At Choosing Empowerment LLC, the foundation is based on the power of choice and healthy relationships. Shawnnell takes her responsibilities seriously as a mental health advocate, speaker, author, and community leader. She remains committed to being honest, informative, straightforward, compassionate, non-judgmental, and understanding. The organization believes in promoting accountability and empowering clients and those around them to put in the necessary work to heal and become their best and highest selves. Choosing Empowerment understands that breaking cycles is difficult and offers support and encouragement throughout clients&apos; wellness journeys. They welcome anyone who wishes to start or continue their healing process in the safe space provided at The Cyclebreaking Village.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
