Greetings, regular people! We've fooled them again and made it to another Friday to revel in the one day of the week that's all yours! We explore how mold can trigger migraines, fatigue, autoimmune issues, and more. Many of us may not realize we're suffering from mold toxicities, and it's essential to be cautious of homes that have that distinctive 'grandparent smell.' We'll delve into why the ages of 38-43 mark the transition into mature adulthood and why it's the right time to start resolving issues from our past. We'll also discuss how perfectionism often stems from fear and how pushing ourselves beyond our limits can lead to imposter syndrome. Discover why narcissists, dysfunctional families, and toxic work environments often fail to recognize or acknowledge your greatness and learn about the tragic pitfalls of remaining in those systems. Additionally, we'll explore how we manifest our fears and negative thoughts - what we repeatedly talk about tends to become a reality - and ways to override these detrimental thought patterns. If you've faced setbacks in your endeavors, remember that time and age are on your side. Sometimes, the world just needs to catch up to you, and you may need to slow down. Bye, betches!

Hey Heal Squad, this is a must-episode to tune into for you or anyone you know suffering from disease, particularly cancer. Over 20 years ago, Kris Carr discovered she had over 20 tumors and stage four cancer. If you know anything about cancer, you know there is no stage five. Yet, Kris is still here with us to share her healing journey, which I hope can be yours. Kris struggled with issues of perfectionism, shame, control and a host of other emotions familiar to many of us, which she, without coincidence, learned how to manage. In this second part, we focus more on grief as Kris, on top of her cancer, had to deal with a terminally ill father, financial pressures, the pandemic and more. Kris soon realized how much we all grieve in this lifetime, whether it's a cheating spouse, a miscarriage, a death or even a life transition. As I said after part one, Kris offered so much that I've already invited her back. Ruptures such as sickness, divorce, miscarriage, and death: How do we navigate our emotions when bad things happen? You don't think life can get stormier, but it does: Dad is diagnosed with terminal cancer, the pandemic hits, and it's year 20 of cancer with new financial strains to boot. When the grief train arrives, in come all the cars: Talk therapy and even medications help. Grief and love go hand in hand: Living and awakening happened when Dad was dying. Rehearsing conversations in grief: Kris surrenders control, stops trying to run, and opens up to her father after a few conversations in the mirror. Anticipatory grief: It happens long before the loss and helps you cope during and after. Do not cut out emotions: We can't amputate our emotions and expect to be whole. Bring awareness, curiosity, and compassion to whatever emotion triggers you to unlock and relieve Finding joy and happiness without costing anything: Smelling flowers or playing with your dog is another way to 'change the channel.' Being in 'what I want mode': Shift your mindset to what you want more of to prevent dark thoughts from coming in as a mental fitness exercise. Simple healthy practices: Easiest to apply and stick to. Feed your joy: Bring more goodness into your life. The anti-inflammatory life path: Kris shares her simple-to-follow practices, encouraging others to create and implement their own practices. Do not be glued to a diagnosis: Many of us are taught to do so, which is limiting.

Hey Heal Squad, for you or anyone else you know suffering from disease, particularly cancer, this is a must episode to tune into. Over 20 years ago, Kris Carr discovered she had over 20 tumors and stage four cancer. If you know anything about cancer, you know there is no stage five. Yet, Kris is still here with us to share her healing journey, which I hope can be yours. Kris struggled with issues of perfectionism, shame, control and a host of other emotions familiar to many of us, which she, without coincidence, learned how to manage. These two parts were so rich in takeaways that I've already invited her back. Stage 4 Cancer Diagnosis: Tumors in her liver and lungs at age 31. View your health as a business: replace people (doctors) if they are not performing just like in a business. Watch and wait, watch and live: let cancer make the first move while Kris chooses to watch and live. Find collaborative doctors: research, network, be willing to travel, and have an advocate go to meetings with you. Feeding my soul with nutrition: I need to control something and I can control what I put in my mouth: whole foods, plant-based foods and foods that make me feel better. It's not just about what you're eating: It's also about what's eating you. Manage fear and anxiety: make peace with this journey to do so. It's not about perfection: it's about being mindful Anxiety loops: developing a new muscle in your brain to get back to the present when negative stories and anxiety loops enter. Getting past perfection: lower the bar and know you'll have setbacks. Stay in awareness: when more aware and in tune with self, you can say this behavior is not serving my highest good, 'this is not how I want to feel...this is not serving me...' Be okay with a B+: no one is really going to know the difference Something has to give: eventually, your body will give out and you will pass before your time per physics. Control is a trauma response: it's not something that happened to you; it happened inside of you. The whole journey of being a human: dealing with uncertainty If I get sick then I'll make the changes: the dangers under this form of thinking. How I got the cancer is NOT the question: asking leads to blame things, including ourselves. It's more about the now. What do I do now to help myself. Silver linings? Do not blame yourself whether you see cancer as a gift or not. The power of 'I quit': after her ten-year check-up when not being cured, Kris says 'I quit' to try to cure herself instead of trying to heal. We can always be healing: embrace that sentiment. Be thoughtful of who to spend time with: for those who don't 'get it', they are not your teachers. You are more likely their teachers.  HEAL SQUAD SOCIALS IG: https://www.instagram.com/healsquad/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@healsquadxmaria HEAL SQUAD RESOURCES: Website: https://www.mariamenounos.com Curated Macy’s Page: https://www.macys.com/healsquad Rosetta Stone: https://www.rosettastone.com/healsquad Noom: https://www.noom.com Just Thrive: https://justthrivehealth.com and use promo code: HEALSQUAD ABOUT MARIA MENOUNOS: Emmy Award-winning journalist, TV personality, actress, 2x NYT best-selling author, former pro-wrestler and brain tumor survivor, Maria Menounos’ passion is to see others heal and to get better in all areas of life.

Greetings Regular People, we fooled them again and made it to another Friday to revel in the one day of the week that's yours! How doctors may know how to treat illness, but why you may be better at healing. Why self-reliance and resilience may be the greatest life asset. What removing all pain and providing all pleasure results in. What generation did Harvard University call the Failure to Launch? Why when in a crisis or a major life transition, the worst thing to be is ambitious. Why recovering codependents look for reasons to fulfill their codependent script by over-giving to narcissists and how they get nothing in return except the fleeting sense of superiority? How entitled people are not grateful. How parents create narcissists by being codependent and then that narcissist goes on to create a codependent and so on. RGF bonus: Where are they now: Nena from 99 Luftballoons. Why Nena? Why not!
