Practicing self-compassion allows you to be aware, to tune in, to be mindful of your experiences, and to provide comfort and self-nurturing when you need it. According to psychotherapist Dr. Julie de Azevedo Hanks, author of the popular audiobook “The Assertiveness Guide for Women,” neglecting self-compassion is a mistake that many of us make; but, without self-love, we won’t be able to realize our full potential as human beings.
Do you ever feel that bad habits have taken over your life? When stress and anxiety mount, do your go-to behaviors wreak havoc on your time, relationships, work, and finances? According to Dr. Amy Johnson, psychologist and author of the popular audiobook “The Little Book of Big Change,” changing bad habits is far less daunting and much more simple than you might think. It relies on neuroplasticity — the brain’s ability to reorganize itself — and requires no willpower at all!
We all sometimes wish that life could be different than it is. We’d love to wave a magic wand and fix the annoying job, the inconsiderate friend, or the distant partner. But we can’t. The good new is, we don’t need to! In this episode, Chuck Hillig, author of the audiobook “Seeds for the Soul: Living as the Source of Who You Are,” inspires us to explore our vast potential, start taking ownership of our lives and live as the source of who we are.
When we’re overwhelmed, we begin to start operating on surface levels, and lose touch with our inner wisdom. Being separated from your true nature can cause unhappiness, dissatisfaction, and cement bad habits. In this episode, psychologist Dr. Amy Johnson discusses the spiritual component of breaking a habit—though the advice she shares applies to any area of life where we need to connect with inner wisdom—the deep knowing of our true self. Dr. Johnson is the author of the audiobook “The Little Book of Big Change: The No-Willpower Approach to Breaking Any Habit.”

He shares his thoughts on dissipating fear by getting to the root of it through the process of inquiry, and also shares an excerpt from his audiobook “The Sacred Hub: Living in the Shimmering Light of Your True Self.”
Psychologist Dr. Randy Paterson is the author of the audiobook “How to be Miserable: 40 Strategies You Already Use.” In today’s illuminating conversation he shares a surprising, counter-intuitive approach to self-help — one that can inspire you to break out of old, unhealthy patterns and live a life of contentment.
