Cheaper Than Therapy with Vanessa and Dené

In this live coaching session, we talk with Jane about the contradictory feelings that come up as we’re on the precipice of a new phase of life.We explore the realities of prioritizing our needs as parents,, how sometimes we can be attempting to postpone the action steps of going after what we really want by continuing to pursue additional letters behind our names, how much power we can find when we stay open to receiving instead of attempting to figure things out, and the sense of freedom that comes from a practice letting go of attachment to outcomes. Interested in joining a live virtual group class with us?

In this solo episode, we explore the shadow elements of being raised as women in a wounded patriarchal system.We talk about the differentiation between ‘wounded feminine’ and ‘healthy feminine’ energetics, how some of the narratives we were raised with have at times caused us to unconsciously reject elements of ourselves and other women, the challenge of confronting some of our subconscious programming while attempting to be present in relationships, and why working as therapists has given insight into where we’ve previously missed the mark in our perception of the inner world of men.Interested in joining a live virtual group class with us?

In this live coaching session, we sit down with Maia to talk about her experiences with codependency and boundaries in her marriage.Our conversation raised common relational questions like, “is it me?” “Is it them?” “Is it our communication?” “Could I be different or better?” And more painfully, “is this my fault?” This session was such a beautiful example of how often our work in relationships is to invite curiosity and compassion back in where it has been lost - starting first and foremost, with ourselves.Interested in joining a live virtual group class with us?
