We were absolutely thrilled to sit down with internationally acclaimed yoga teacher and activist Seane Corn. Seane is a powerful force, known for her social impact, impassioned style of teaching, and raw, honest, self-expression. We take a deep dive into yoga and social justice, how it is impossible to separate our path as yogis from the core tenet of ahimsa (non-violence), the fact that generational trauma is often present in our deepest moments of activation, and how we might all use this moment in history as an opportunity to rise, rather than going backward. Seane has been such a profound spiritual teacher for both of us. She is the kind of leader who makes you want to show up and be better, and we know that you are going to be just as moved by her words as we were. You can learn more from Seane and practice with her through her online platform Revolution Within on her website at seanecorn.com or follow her on IG @seanecorn If you love the conversations we’re bringing you as much as we do, please subscribe, rate and write a review so we can get the podcast out to even more people!

In this live coaching session with Olive, we talk about feeling skeptical as we get back into dating - especially as a single parent.We explore how to find a middle ground between self-abandonment and self-protection, using the relationships we saw growing up as a way to understand what was modeled for us, giving ourselves permission to create our own rule book when it comes to dating, and balancing all of our responsibilities with a desire to experience connection.If you love the conversations we’re bringing you as much as we do, please subscribe, rate and write a review so we can get the podcast out to even more people!*These live coaching sessions are meant for entertainment purposes only and are not to replace therapy.

Stefanos Sifandos is a relationship alchemist. He is also an advocate for men’s empowerment, a relationship coach, and well-known for his transformational way of educating on the interplay of masculine and feminine dynamics. We talk with Stefanos about how addressing our core wounds can support us in creating resiliency for the inevitable challenges we’ll continue to face in life, the contrast of our introverted and extroverted shadow (a new usage of the terms for us!), how masculine and feminine energies are playing out in all of our relationships, and presence - both with ourselves and others, as the key to creating a sense of connection and safety. We were so unbelievably captivated and blown away by the wisdom Stefanos had to share. We know you will be too.

In this live coaching session with Karen, we talk about how we start to acknowledge that we are worthy of creating new love experiences. We explore the power of language when describing who we are, giving ourselves credit for the ways in which we’ve grown, bringing our partners along for the ride as we process difficult moments, and using mindfulness practices as a way to bring ourselves back when opening up to love feels really scary.

In this episode we celebrate and reflect on the first 50 episodes of Cheaper Than Therapy!We look back at the decision to start a mental-health centered podcast in a year where mental health was at the forefront more than ever before, how we can stay hopeful when so much of the messaging around us creates a narrative that initiates a fear response, our argument in defense of love as our natural state of being, and how we move - as a society, into a state of collective forgiveness.If you love the conversations we’re bringing you as much as we do, please subscribe, rate and write a review so we can get the podcast out to even more people!
