As my family moves through our grief, I’m experiencing the pain and beauty of dancing with a rich spectrum of emotions. At times, I’m overwhelmed with pain, hurt, and confusion. Then...
153. Elisabeth Cardiello: Building Emotional Resilience and Experiencing Safety in an Unsafe World
November 09, 2020 11:00 - 50 minutes - 46.4 MB“Vulnerability is just sharing whatever emotion is in you.” One of the reasons 2020 has been so unsettling is because safety is a basic human need. When certainty is stripped away, fear bubbles up - causing us to feel as though the world is unsafe. But despite the chaos, there’s an opportunity to be found in the current climate. When the outside world shifts, we have no option but to dive within. In the process, we can cultivate emotional resilience and tap into a more reliable form of s...

October 26, 2020 11:00 - 54 minutes - 50.3 MB“Financially happy is a philosophy or a state of being. It’s this idea that you can be both happy and wealthy now.” As a society, we’ve guided ourselves into a challenging relationship with money. Money is the thread that flows through EVERYTHING. It’s the ultimate connector that ties us all together. Due to the way society is structured, most of us can’t live without money! Yet, we decided to make money an emotionally charged taboo.

October 05, 2020 10:00 - 55 minutes - 51.1 MB“As men, we are so hell-bent on protecting our masculinity because - this runs to the root of an identity - if you’re not a man, then you’re weak, you’re ostracized, you’re not valued. And then, you’re on your own. You’re left to kind of perish. This runs so deeply inside of us that we don’t recognize the game that we’re playing, which is “protect my man card.” You may have noticed a recent trend where people are talking about the patriarchy, toxic masculinity, and what it means to be a man...
