162: How to Follow Your Curiosity, Unpack Emotional Baggage, & Travel Light with Light Watkins
Quote: “Are you feeling like you can access more of your potential? If there are stories that you keep telling yourself or you keep telling other people about what you want to do but you’re not doing it because you’re holding onto all this other stuff…then that’s something to take a look at.” – Light Watkins Summary: In this episode, I sit down with Light Watkins–celebrity meditation teacher, podcast host, speaker, and author. We explore Light's new book, Travel Light, and his journey towards spiritual minimalism. Our conversation is intentionally unintentional. We talk about it all, from the importance of chance encounters to the hidden lessons in everyday experiences. You’ll finish this episode with practical tools and inspiration for living a more mindful and fulfilling life. In this episode we talk about… Dispelling common misconceptions about meditation. Differentiating between inner voices to lessen chaos and increase clarity. Developing mindfulness practices to unpack emotional baggage and create space for more desirable outcomes. Cultivating gratitude and seeking silver linings in everyday experiences.

161: Braving It All: How to Process Grief & Loss with Dr. Neeta Bhushan
161: Braving It All: How to Process Grief & Loss with Dr. Neeta Bhushan Alternate Title: Navigating Grief and Loss & Embracing Emotions and Healing Quote: “It's okay to sit in the suck. It's okay to sit in the discomfort of those emotions. And, it's okay even if you're at the stage and you wanna numb it, you wanna distract, you wanna avoid, you wanna bury.” – Dr. Neeta Bhushan Summary: Hey there, Brave Table family! In this episode, we're diving deep into a topic that's close to my heart: grief and loss. I've walked a LONG path with these emotions. In fact, I’d say I know them intimately. If you’re new here, my journey with both began after losing both of my parents and one of my brothers before I turned 19. That’s a lot for a young girl to handle. In this heartfelt conversation, I share my journey and insights on how to deal with grief in all its forms. We'll talk about how our unresolved relationship with it can affect our connections with others and why it's crucial to address. I'll share how I've navigated various life stages, like motherhood, and how they impact our capacity for emotional availability. We'll explore how grief isn't just about losing loved ones but also about losing parts of ourselves, friendships, and even those little things that mean the world to us. In this episode I talk about… Recognizing and honoring the multi-faceted forms of grief. Acknowledging and supporting children in their grief processes. Processing grief in relationships and navigating seasonal changes. The ongoing nature of grief and the ways in which it can resurface unexpectedly. However they arrive, by chance or by choice, grief and loss can be as tough to let go of as the people they’re associated with. I hope this episode encourages you to embrace your emotions, sit with discomfort, and allow yourself to feel and heal. Remember, you're not alone in this journey; you’ve got soul support.

159: 8 Signs You're in an Emotionally Unavailable Relationship with Dr. Neeta Bhushan
“Many times we will attract partners who are usually the opposite, usually because there is that polarity and that polarity breeds juicy attraction.” – Dr. Neeta Bhushan In this episode of The Brave Table, I’m going to take you through the unmistakable markers that indicate an emotionally unfulfilling relationship. I’ve been there. I’ve done that. And, I want to make sure that you have the knowledge you need to make changes too! We’re not going to bypass uncomfortable truths, though. We’ll explore the intriguing question of why we find ourselves drawn to partners who seem emotionally distant. In the words of Taylor Swift, “It’s me. Hi. I’m the problem it’s me!” But, we’re not going to sit in the suck. We'll uncover the roots of these dynamics, often stemming from our formative years and early experiences. In this episode we talk about… Why people with deep emotions often attract partners who are emotionally unavailable. Signs of emotional unavailability, including avoidance and deflection, increase conflict and decrease connection. Ways to improve relationships, strategies for addressing emotional unavailability ourselves or our partners. Now, if you find yourself immersed in this dynamic—whether you opt to persist or let go—it’s so important to assume responsibility for your own emotional journey.
