Hey loves, welcome back to The Brave Table! Today, we’re dismantling a major myth in the world of personal growth – the ‘good vibes only’ mentality. While it’s great to stay positive, I’m here to remind you that we need to feel ALL of our emotions to truly grow. In this episode, we’re diving deep into the concept of emotional contrast. Yes, you can feel sadness, rage, grief, AND joy at the same time – and that’s beautiful! I’ll also be sharing how to navigate the darker emotions that most of us tend to avoid, why they are just as important as the light, and how to transmute them in a healthy way. Get ready for some juicy tools to work through your anger, feel your grief, and embrace your full range of emotions – all while still celebrating life’s joy. If you're someone who’s tired of the toxic positivity trap, this one’s for you! What you'll get out of this episode…  Embrace your darker emotions to grow, transforming grief, anger, and sadness into peace and joy. Setting time to feel and release your emotions through journaling, dancing, or screaming is powerful. Your body stores emotions in specific organs Joy requires sadness; resilience comes from embracing both. Embrace the paradox—it's okay to laugh and cry at once! TIMESTAMPS 00:00 – Welcome and Introduction 02:00 – Why the ‘good vibes only’ mindset can be toxic 03:30 – The role of shadow work and embracing our darker sides 07:45 – Practical tools to navigate tough emotions in a healthy way 13:45 – The science behind how our bodies store emotions (liver = anger, lungs = grief) 17:00 – Why teaching our kids to embrace all emotions helps them build resilience 21:00 – Action steps: How will you start embracing all parts of you To receive a free gift, email a screenshot of your 5-star review of The Brave Table to support@globalgrit.co 😘 Follow along for more tips, community, and resources to brave a better you!

Hey, Brave Table fam! You are in for an incredible episode today as I sit down with the one and only Kristina Mand-Lakhiani, co-founder of Mindvalley and author of Flawsome. We dive deep into her journey of turning imperfections into superpowers, uncovering the societal pressure to be flawless, and how she has consciously navigated motherhood, business, and relationships while embracing her flaws. Kristina gets real about perfectionism, conscious uncoupling, and the truth behind finding your authentic self. This episode will inspire you to embrace every part of yourself, imperfections and all. So, get cozy, grab your favorite drink, and let's get Flawsome! What you'll get out of this episode…  Flaws and imperfections are not things to be fixed; they can be transformed into your greatest strengths. Perfectionism is a societal construct that often limits our ability to embrace our authentic selves. Navigating relationships, particularly in business and personal life, requires a balance of boundaries, compassion, and honesty. Being a mother doesn't mean losing yourself; it’s about embracing the complexities and imperfections of motherhood. Authenticity isn’t just a one-time decision; it’s a lifelong practice of aligning with your truth, even when it's uncomfortable.

In this episode, I sit down with the brilliant Dr. Christian Gonzalez, a pioneer in emotional liberation and holistic health. We dive deep into how repressed emotions, like anger and fear, affect our physical bodies, specifically the gut and reproductive health. Together, we explore the bridge between traditional and emotional healing, why dancing is essential for emotional release, and how we can all learn to connect with our bodies for long-term transformation. What you'll get out of this episode…  Repressed emotions, such as anger and fear, often manifest physically in the gut Traditional medicine needs to embrace the unseen aspects of emotional health for holistic healing. Dancing and movement are vital forms of therapy for releasing trapped energy in the body. The Emotional Liberation Method offers tools to heal generational trauma and repressed emotions for anyone. Gut health is directly connected to emotional repression; healing the mind helps heal the body.
