Excavating Identity And Mental Strength With Kristen Crabtree

Excavating Identity And Mental Strength With Kristen Crabtree

In this Healthy Waves conversation from the Healthy Mind By Avik™ ecosystem, host Sana and guest Kristen Crabtree deconstruct the usual script on mental health, mental strength and resilience. They unpack what happens when you are praised for holding everything together while silently disappearing behind roles like good wife, good mother, good employee. Kristen shares how 22 years in a psychologically abusive marriage, a bipolar diagnosis and trauma therapy in 2021 forced a complete reboot of her inner operating system.

Together they explore how real mental strength starts with identity excavation. Not more grinding, but finally hearing your own voice under family rules, cultural conditioning and performance masks. They talk about privilege and survival, why telling people to just align with their true self can sound unrealistic for single parents and people in unsafe situations, and why boundaries can be a pragmatic first step when you have zero capacity. If you are tired of confusing survival with living, this episode gives you a sharp, honest lens on mental health, women’s resilience, boundaries and rebuilding life on your own terms.

About the Guest:

Kristen Crabtree is an author, creator of the Paramore Paradox ecosystem and a certified trauma informed divorce coach. After decades in a psychologically abusive marriage and a long journey with bipolar disorder, trauma therapy and meditation helped her reclaim her voice and identity. Her book Be the You That is More You Than You Have Ever Beenoffers a structured framework for excavating your own story, identifying the roles and artifacts that shape you and stepping into what she calls your True You 2.0. Today she helps people move from invisibility and self doubt into clarity, self trust and aligned decision making.

Key Takeaways:
  • Mental health often erodes when we shrink behind roles and expectations. Kristen explains how constantly performing as the responsible one while ignoring your own needs creates inner chaos and long term psychological strain.

  • Most people mistake mental strength for holding everything together and never asking for help. Kristen reframes true mental resilience as hearing your inner voice, accepting it and making decisions that align with who you really are.

  • Kristen’s turning point came through trauma therapy and meditation. Both helped her recognize the psychological abuse in her marriage, process earlier sexual trauma and reconnect with a self she had buried for decades.

  • Her book uses an excavation metaphor. You audit the artifacts of your life, roles, traumas and stories, then intentionally design your True You 2.0, a future identity that expresses your real values instead of inherited scripts.

  • The conversation names privilege directly. Kristen acknowledges that some people do not have the time, money or safety to do deep identity work, and that telling them to just align with their true self can sound tone deaf.

  • Boundaries show up as a practical first lever. Kristen describes learning to feel in her body when a boundary is crossed and how protecting that line built self worth, self respect and the stability required for bigger life changes.

  • Both Sana and Kristen emphasize that humans are messy by default. You are not broken or something to fix. The work is stripping away noise, shame and other people’s blueprints so you can design a life that actually fits you.

Breaking the Silence: Kath Essing on Reclaiming Your Voice After Childhood Trauma

In this powerful episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, we welcome Kath Essing, author of The Courage to Speak Your Truth. Kath shares her journey from silence to advocacy after surviving childhood sexual abuse. We discuss why reclaiming your voice is essential for healing, the complexities of sharing your story, and the critical gaps in current support systems and justice processes. Kath offers honest reflections on what helped her heal, the unexpected challenges she faced, and practical advice for both survivors and supporters. If you or someone you know is navigating the path from trauma to empowerment, this conversation is not to be missed. About Kath Essing:Kath Essing is a survivor, author, and advocate whose memoir The Courage to Speak Your Truth calls on women and allies to break free from the silence surrounding childhood sexual abuse. Through her personal story and advocacy, Kath is working to reform outdated systems and empower others to reclaim their stories and their strength.

Supporters should focus on listening, believing, and holding space rather than offering quick solutions.

Writing can be a powerful first step toward processing trauma and reclaiming your voice.

Voice as Medicine: Self-Healing, Mental Clarity & Presence through Sound with Denise Mihalik

Voice as Medicine: Self-Healing, Mental Clarity & Presence through Sound with Denise Mihalik

On Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty explores how voice and sound unlock self-healing, mental clarity, and embodied presence with Denise Mihalik—opera singer turned sound-healing guide, founder of Sound Awakenings, and creator of Quantum Voice. From opera stages to ashrams, Denise shares how chanting, humming, and breath rewire our nervous system, rebuild confidence after grief, and reconnect us to an authentic voice that leads rather than pleases. You’ll learn practical, safe voice practices you can start today—no “good singer” required—and why your voiceprint is a direct line to purpose. About the guest  : Denise Mihalik is the founder of Sound Awakenings and creator of Quantum Voice. A former professional opera singer, she now teaches voice and sound practices for trauma release, presence, and inner peace. She offers 1:1 and group sessions online and a free “Sounds of Awakening” (Bija Mantras) training on her homepage. She is also the author of the novel Journey to Sunyata. Key takeaways: Your voice is a unique vibrational fingerprint—a mirror of mood, safety, and self-permission. Most people aren’t tone-deaf; voice skills are trainable when mental blocks are addressed. Breath + posture change how you sound and how safe you feel to be heard. Simple humming regulates the nervous system—think “walking singing bowl.” Chanting (including Sanskrit bija sounds) can soften grief, open the heart, and restore meaning. After loss, begin with permission to feel joy, then rebuild with breath and tiny steps. Speaking or singing isn’t about sounding pretty; it’s about sincere resonance and alignment. Practical start: 2 minutes of gentle breath + hum, hand on chest, daily consistency over intensity.

Rethinking Alcohol: Turning “I Need a Drink” Into Real Needs (Confidence, Connection, Calm) with Anna Donaghey

Rethinking Alcohol: Turning “I Need a Drink” Into Real Needs (Confidence, Connection, Calm) with Anna Donaghey

On Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty talks with Anna Donaghey—alcohol mindset coach, author, and host of The Big Drink Rethink—about why high-achievers quietly struggle with drinking and how to replace alcohol’s “jobs” (confidence, belonging, relief) with tools that actually nourish. We unpack Anna’s “What are you truly thirsty for?” framework, practical pause-and-choose strategies, and how boundaries, self-awareness, and nervous-system care build a life you don’t want to escape. If you’re sober-curious, rethinking happy-hour habits, or ready to change your relationship with alcohol without shame or moralizing, this direct, science-informed conversation is for you. About the guest  : Anna Donaghey spent 25 years as a strategy director in high-pressure advertising before confronting a growing dependence on alcohol. Now an alcohol mindset coach, podcast host of The Big Drink Rethink, and author of the forthcoming What Are You Thirsty For?, she helps people identify the unmet needs behind the drink and choose healthier ways to meet them. Key takeaways: Name the “job” you’re giving alcohol (confidence, connection, relief, sleep). Once named, you can meet that need directly. Micro-pause practice: before you drink, ask, “What am I really thirsty for right now?” Even if you still drink, the pause builds choice. High achievers are vulnerable: perfectionism, control, and overperformance can become an Achilles’ heel, pushing private, compensatory drinking. Alcohol isn’t the root problem; it becomes a placeholder for unmet emotional needs. Replace numbing with nourishing inputs. Build a life you don’t want to escape: core nutrients (body, mind, soul), better boundaries, and tools for regulation reduce urges. Treat sensations (tension, cravings, fatigue) as information, not failure. Respond with rest, connection, movement, or creativity. Success can mimic a drug (dopamine loops), just like work, scrolling, gaming. Swap quick hits for sustainable fulfillment. This is not about deprivation; it’s about empowerment—making alcohol small and irrelevant so you choose with intention. You don’t have to quit to begin; you do need to stop using alcohol as an emotional management tool. Start today: identify your top two “thirsts” (e.g., calm, belonging) and list non-alcohol ways to meet each in 10 minutes or less.

The Four Cardinal Virtues for Modern Mental Health: Prudence, Justice, Fortitude & Temperance with Matthew Jandernoa

The Four Cardinal Virtues for Modern Mental Health: Prudence, Justice, Fortitude & Temperance with Matthew Jandernoa

In this direct, practical conversation on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik explores how the four cardinal virtues—prudence, justice, fortitude, and temperance—become a usable framework for real-world mental and spiritual well-being. Guest Matthew Jandernoa, founder of Steadfast Life, reframes virtue from “rules” into a map for becoming fully human. You’ll hear why freedom requires formation, how appetites shape choice, and a simple on-ramp: identify your “champion virtue” using Gretchen Rubin’s Four Tendencies to build momentum. Matthew shares a client story showing how the prudential sub-virtue of alertness can reduce panic attacks by widening focus and restoring creativity. If you want a clear, non-fluffy path to calm, confidence, and integrity, this episode lays out the steps.   About the guest   Matthew Jandernoa is a husband, father, and founder of Steadfast Life, a movement helping people make virtue human again—practiced daily by families, leaders, and believers seeking wisdom, discipline, and love.   Key takeaways: Virtue is human tech: The root of “virtue” (from vir, “human”) frames it as a map for being fully human, not a moral checklist. Four domains, four anchors: Prudence = thinking well Temperance = desiring well Fortitude = meeting fear well Justice = acting/interacting well Freedom needs formation: Unordered appetites distort reality; rightly ordered appetites increase true freedom and durable happiness. Start where you’re strong: Use Four Tendencies to find a “champion virtue”: Upholder → Temperance Questioner → Prudence Obliger → Justice Rebel → FortitudeGrowing one virtue lifts all. Anxiety tool: alertness (prudence): Replace tunnel vision with creative option-generation to neutralize intrusive thoughts and regulate the nervous system. Everyday practice: Choose honesty over comfort, courage over fear, balance over excess, and fairness over ego—small, repeatable acts compound. Resources mentioned: steadfastlife.net, Institute of Catholic Culture’s course on the Four Cardinal Virtues, Gretchen Rubin’s Four Tendencies.   Connect with the guest   Website: steadfastlife.net Email: matthew@steadfastlife.net First call is free for introductions and questions about the virtues.   Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?

Anger Intelligence: Turn Reactivity into Repair in Relationships & Parenting with Davina Hehn

Anger Intelligence: Turn Reactivity into Repair in Relationships & Parenting with Davina Hehn

On Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik and mental health coach Davina Hehn cut through the fluff on anger. You’ll learn how to read anger as data (not a defect), use nervous-system tools in the moment, and practice micro-repairs that rebuild trust at home and at work. Practical scripts, time-bound pauses, thought-stopping, and collaboration strategies make this a clear playbook for conflict without collateral damage. About the guest  : Davina Hehn is a trained therapist turned mental health coach. She helps people advocate for themselves without causing harm, regulate their nervous systems, and parent with accountability and repair. Key takeaways  : Anger is a pointer, not a personality flaw; it flags crossed boundaries, unmet needs, or perceived injustice. Do hourly micro-check-ins (jaw, heart rate, “cold-to-hot” scale) to catch activation early. Use a 30-second reset: notice body cues, name the need, choose a response over a reaction. Radical self-responsibility means holding multiple truths: “What I felt was valid; what I did wasn’t helpful.” In-the-moment regulation: breathe with longer exhales; hum or lightly pinch fingertips for bilateral input; stay present. Create time-bound pauses: “I’m activated. I need 5 minutes. I’ll come back.” Agree on a neutral cue word as a couple or family. Repair with consent and specifics: ask to revisit, share each perspective, name what you’ll do differently next time. Aftercare matters: stop rumination with thought-stopping (visual stop sign) to complete the stress cycle. Prevention beats penance: set realistic timelines for behavior change; consistency rebuilds trust. Litmus test for action: channel anger into changes within your control; avoid rushing to act while still highly activated.SEO: anger intelligence, repair over rupture, parenting repair, conflict scripts, nervous system tools, relationship communication.

Turning Setbacks Into Momentum: Clarity, Ownership, and Purpose with Dr. Samuel Jones, Ph.D., CSP

Turning Setbacks Into Momentum: Clarity, Ownership, and Purpose with Dr. Samuel Jones, Ph.D., CSP

On Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty sits down with Dr. Samuel Jones, Ph.D., CSP—award-winning keynote speaker and author of Momentum Mindset: How to Turn Setbacks into Success. We unpack practical strategies to move from overwhelm to action: the Pyramid of Possibilities to locate yourself, the Three Time Zones to mine lessons (not excuses) from your past, and the clarity trifecta—purpose, priorities, and pace—to build repeatable momentum without burnout. If you lead a team, run a business, or you’re simply stuck, this episode shows you how to reframe honestly, separate identity from results, and bounce forward with a system of adaptive thinking, aligning, and doing. About the guest  : Dr. Samuel Jones, Ph.D., CSP is a keynote speaker, leadership coach, and author of Momentum Mindset. He helps leaders and teams convert adversity into advantage through systems that build clarity, confidence, and repeatable progress. Key takeaways:   Locate before you launch: Use the Pyramid of Possibilities to identify where you’re believing myths versus truth so change starts from awareness. Measure momentum in days, not months: Build confidence with small repeatable actions; moments compound into momentum. Reframe without denial: The Three Time Zones model turns past pain into present power by extracting lessons (not blame). Ask better questions: “What does this moment require of me?” moves you from reaction to ownership. Clarity = purpose + priorities + pace: Right-size your speed to preserve capacity and produce results that matter. Build a thinking system: Shift to adaptive thinking → adaptive aligning → adaptive doing to keep evolving. Separate identity from outcomes: Results reflect inputs and alignment, not your worth; reconnect identity to purpose and values. Bounce forward after setbacks: Call a timeout, take stock, audit resourcing, and redesign inputs before the next move. Scale by pruning: “Scale back to scale up”—remove scatter, focus on what truly matters, then expand. Momentum loves witnesses: Share one win daily to reinforce progress and accountability.
