SHED - Sense Healing Every Day podcast

1:08:32

In episode 7. Yes episode 7 not 5, Ms. Aishia, an exceptional therapist and professor, and I talk about navigating life in a world that doesn't seem to want to include everyone. Yes, still in 2024! We talk about how our experiences in our careers, the corporate world and in life in general, can be seen and interpreted through the lenses of our childhood trauma, intergenerational trauma, microaggressions and sometimes overt racism. How do we deal with all of that? I reference two books in my intro, "What My Bones Know: A Memoir of Healing from Complex Trauma" by Stephanie Foo and "They Called Us Exceptional: And Other Lies That Raised Us" by Prachi Gupta, to explain that this is not just a "black" issue. To all my racialized sisters, I see you and I know we can sometime navigate the same journey, so you are not alone. This is not an easy topic... So let's please put our biases aside and listen with an open heart and think about our friends, our colleagues and people in our families, that may have experienced some of these very complex and subtle situations. As always, we're here to foster empowering conversations and Sense Healing Every Day! Ms. Aishia can be found on Instagram and YouTube: @mytherapistlife…

EP 6: Everything Perimenopause & Menopause Related with Dr. Stephanie Finn 1:35:06

In this episode Dr. Stephanie Finn and I talk about everything Peri and Menopause related. I’ve been wanting to have this conversation for a while on this Podcast. I’ve been through a lot with Perimenopause symptoms and I have a lot of friends and cousins who’ve suffered for a long time not knowing what was happening to them. When I started MHT (Menopause Hormone Therapy) formerly known as HRT, I felt I discovered the Holy Grail and I knew I had to share it with every woman I know. Granted, not everyone has the same experience, I think that it’s an option everyone should know about. Unfortunately, there are many failings in our medical system and sadly enough not all doctors are informed on the slew of symptoms that come from peri/menopause and still prescribe anti-depressants and sleeping pills, or tell women to exercise and lose weight, while they could simply benefit from MHT! Anywho, who am I to say?? Let’s listen to this chat with Dr. Finn to get all the necessary information from the expert herself. P.S. The intro is a little long but well worth the wait. NOTES: Dr. Finn can be found at www.drstephaniefinn.ca and for more certified practitioners, visit www.menopause.org . https://portal.menopause.org/NAMS/NAMS/Directory/Menopause-Practitioner.aspx…

EP 5: You've taken Ozempic and loss a tone of weight! Now what? 1:25:52

Hello Friends, EP5: You’ve taken Ozempic* and lost a ton of weight! Now what? is now live. As I announced I have a line up of 4 new episodes with amazing guests coming up, starting with Sabrina Noel, Health & Wellness Coach. In this episode we tackle the topic of GLP1s and Semaglutides like: Ozempic, Wegovy and Mounjaro, etc. and weight “loss”. And it’s a different take! Our opinions might surprise you… As always, I say weight has been my teacher. It has led me to a lot of healing and that’s why I believe, and a lot of us out there believe, that we must look at our trauma and what is truly at the root of our weight gain. Why do we overeat, soothe or numb with food? In this episode we talk a lot about Self-Worth, but I want to be clear, there are many different facets to Self-Worth. Some can have a wonderful career, a beautiful home or healthy family life because they believe they are worthy of those things, but still not invest in their health. It’s not all or nothing! So please sit back, have a listen and enjoy, as always, let us know what you think by engaging with us.

In this episode I dive deep (which for some reason I had trouble saying during the episode...lol) into my story. When it all began & why. I talk about the different messages around exercise and the all so confusing multiple theories and advice on food and diet. I talk about some of my own solutions like Intermittent Fasting that really help with my mood & focus, which is why I'm sticking to it, because honestly I didn't see much change in weight. I also talk about my go-tos: meditation, journaling, somatic exercise and muscle testing (Kinesiology). Explanation on muscle testing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ol2vC27AMvs Ultimately, the aim of this Podcast is to give us tools to heal, grow and transform together and find new ways of being to unlearn the old principles that have kept us stuck and not showing up in the world as our authentic selves and fully self expressed. Please engage and let me know what you think. Enjoy! M…

In this episode I introduce myself, talk about my journey of self discovery and healing. From meditating in India for 3 weeks in an Ashram to walking on fire - twice. Below I share some of the works (to name a few) that have inspired me to create this podcast. How I created SHED, the premise behind the name. Why me? Well as a woman of color I believe that some folks need to hear the message from someone who looks like them and who can relate to their experience. Why now? The epiphany that led me to this project at this specific time in my life.
