Wholeness, Vision & Self-Return: Healing the Mind, Body & Eyes with Tara Wiskow, Mechelle Wingle & Dr. Roger Wu

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.   If you’re in immediate crisis, contact local emergency services or your regional suicide prevention helpline.

On this Healthy Waves episode from the Healthy Mind By Avik podcast network, host Pragya gets real about what it means to design a life that actually fits you instead of endlessly upgrading a life you secretly resent. Life coach and Akashic Records guide Claudia M Gallegos breaks down why so many high achievers feel empty even when they have everything they were told to want. They unpack the invisible traps of building your world around other people’s expectations, the myth of “Instagram perfection”, and the pressure to have one big cinematic life purpose. Claudia shares concrete practices like automatic writing, listening to your body as an antenna, and treating your path as an experiment rather than a performance. This is a strategic, grounded conversation for anyone ready to stop auditioning for a life that was never theirs and start building one that finally feels honest. About the Guest: Claudia M Gallegos is a life coach, writer and spiritual guide who works with the Akashic Records and deep purpose work. She has reinvented her own life across countries, careers and belief systems. Claudia now supports clients who look “successful” on paper yet feel disconnected from themselves and want a more truthful, aligned way to live and work. Key Takeaways: Most people are not designing a new life. They are only upgrading a life they never chose. Real change starts when you stop rearranging the same pieces and admit what is actually not working. The first trap is building your life around other people’s desires. Parents, culture, work and social media become the blueprint so you ignore the quiet truth that your joy may be in a very different direction. A “good life” is not a perfect picture. It is an ongoing art practice. You show up like an artist in the studio, even on messy days, with a clear general direction instead of a rigid five step script. Discomfort is not always a sign you failed. Sometimes it is just a hard Tuesday. The work is learning to separate a temporary low from a real signal that your direction no longer fits who you are. Your body is an antenna. Subtle unease around a person or decision is data. When you override those signals for the sake of logic or convenience, you often land in chaotic business deals or painful relationships. Purpose is not always one big dramatic destiny. For many people it is seasonal, gentler and evolving. The point is not to become a superstar in a movie. The point is to live from your own essence instead of chasing external applause. Simple practices like automatic writing by hand, silent moments and embodied awareness help you reconnect with what you actually want, so you can make choices that reflect your soul instead of the crowd.

On this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Sana sits down with indie author and resilience strategist Pam Chiaro to talk about what it actually looks like to choose yourself in real life, not just on inspirational quote cards. Pam walks us through leaving a stable career only after she was financially resourced, building a writing life as PK Stuart, and then having everything disrupted by an ovarian cancer diagnosis. She breaks down how she navigated treatment with a mix of medical care, keto eating, movement, meditation and spiritual tools, while staying grounded, pragmatic and honest about fear. Pam also explains how she uses astrology as a planning and reflection framework, not as superstition, to set goals, review progress and keep her life aligned with her values. This is a clear, no drama conversation about resilience, health, creativity, money, and why metrics and marketing can never replace the actual work or the people you love. About the guest: Pam Chiaro is an indie author who writes under the name PK Stuart. After years in business management and supporting startups, she transitioned out of traditional employment to build a writing career on her own terms. A pragmatic planner and lifelong meditator, Pam blends spiritual tools like astrology with grounded decision making. She lives in the mountains of western Colorado with her husband, close to her two children and six grandchildren, and is focused on both her ongoing health journey and her growing catalogue of books. Key takeaways : Strength is not loud aggression, it is quiet resilience, self trust and choosing yourself in hard seasons. Pam shows that quitting a traditional job is realistic only when you are financially resourced and honest about your responsibilities. An ovarian cancer diagnosis pushed her to re evaluate time, double down on writing and build an indie author career with intention. Keto eating, consistent movement, meditation and spiritual practices support her health journey, without replacing medical care or professional advice. Astrology functions as a planning and reflection tool for her, not a fear script, helping her set goals and review progress across life areas. She continually pulls herself away from vanity metrics and back to the real work, writing books and being present with her family in Colorado.

On this episode of Healthy Waves from the Healthy Mind By Avik™ network, host Sayan sits down with certified financial planner Jennifer Edwards to unpack how money stress lives in the body long before it shows up in a bank statement. They break down trauma responses like fight, flight, freeze and fawn. how these patterns start in childhood. and why they quietly run the show in our income, debt, spending and relationships. Jennifer explains her seven layer financial wellness framework, why nervous system regulation matters more than “perfect budgeting”. and how couples can stop turning money fights into character assassinations. If you have a steady income yet still feel unsafe with money. this episode gives a direct lens on financial anxiety, shame cycles and emotional healing so you can build wealth without burning out your mental health. About the Guest: Jennifer Edwards is a certified financial planner and founder of Breakthrough Financial Wellness. She blends financial planning, financial psychology. trauma informed insight and a seven layer financial wellness framework to help people understand why they behave the way they do with money. not just what to do next. Her work focuses on money trauma, nervous system responses, couples and money, and building financial safety from the inside out. Key Takeaways: Financial stress usually starts in childhood long before we ever touch a paycheck. Our nervous system learns survival patterns around unmet needs and those same patterns later attach to money. Trauma responses like fight, flight, freeze and fawn can show up as overspending, hoarding, overworking, procrastinating on money tasks or people pleasing with money to feel safe in relationships. Emotions are “energy in motion”. If we never express them. that energy can sit in the body as tension, headaches, stomach issues, tight chests or overall dis ease that impacts daily functioning. Many money fights in couples are not about numbers. They are unhealed nervous system responses that get mislabeled as character flaws. like “selfish”, “lazy” or “disorganized”. which deepens conflict and shame. Understanding each partner’s money story from childhood builds empathy. Talking about how money was handled at home, who held power and what felt unsafe creates context instead of blame. Jennifer’s seven layer financial wellness model highlights the often ignored neurological layer and the societal layer. Culture pushes consumerism and constant comfort. which makes emotional spending and chronic debt more likely. Shame around money creates a downward spiral. Reducing self blame. seeing the role of family and culture. and getting objective support lets people make calmer decisions that support mental, emotional and financial health.   Connect with the Guest: Listeners can connect with Jennifer Edwards and explore her work here Website: BreakthroughFinancialWellness.com Resources and newsletter available on the site.

In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Charu sits down with licensed psychotherapist, life coach, and wellness influencer Gina Gheller to break down what narcissistic abuse really does to your mind, body, and identity. This is not a highlight reel. It is a straight talk on red flags like love bombing, sudden flashes of anger, gaslighting, smear campaigns, and why so many smart people stay in unsafe relationships. Gina explains how chronic emotional stress rewires the nervous system, fuels anxiety, panic, and autoimmune issues, and makes it hard to focus or feel safe in your own skin. She shares low effort nervous system regulation tools, the biggest myths that keep survivors stuck, and what thriving actually looks like in real life, not on Instagram. If you are healing from narcissistic abuse, or supporting someone who is, this conversation gives you language, context, and grounded next steps for reclaiming your voice and your future. About The Guest: Gina Gheller is a licensed Texas psychotherapist, national life coach, and wellness influencer with a community of over 50,000 followers. For more than 25 years she has worked in the trenches with survivors of narcissistic abuse, trauma, and toxic relationships. She is the author of: 25 Ways Narcissist Abuse Survival Workbook 25 Ways Narcissist Abuse Survival Guide The Woman's Ultimate Divorce Survival Guide Through one to one work, groups, online resources, and her writing, Gina helps survivors understand abusive dynamics, regulate their nervous systems, rebuild self trust, and create lives that feel safe, grounded, and self led again. Key Takeaways: Narcissistic abuse often starts subtly. early “cracks” look like unexpected flashes of anger, cutting remarks, and critiques of the very traits they once praised. Love bombing is a major red flag. intense flattery, grand gestures, and fast tracked intimacy in the first months are not romance, they are control strategies. Survivors stay because of wiring, conditioning, and manipulation. cultural messages, children, financial entanglement, shame, and gaslighting all keep people stuck longer than they ever planned. Narcissistic abuse is physiological, not just emotional. long term cortisol spikes and hypervigilance can contribute to anxiety, panic, fatigue, and autoimmune style symptoms. Grounding plus boxed breathing is a low effort regulation tool. focus on breath, senses, and present safety to interrupt dissociation and trauma spirals in the moment. One of the biggest myths is “they will change if I love them enough or they get help”. romanticizing the past and minimizing the abuse keeps survivors looping back. Life after leaving is not instantly free. survivors often face financial fallout, health issues, social isolation, smear campaigns, and a shaken sense of identity. Thriving is not perfection. it looks like safety, clarity, smaller but real community, self trust, and building a life where your nervous system is not on constant high alert. *This episode discusses narcissistic abuse, trauma, nervous system regulation, and recovery in an educational, non graphic, and non hateful way.

On this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Charu sits down with former healthcare leader turned multi seven figure mindset trainer and strategist Lin Yuan Su to pressure test a big claim. that up to 95% of success comes from mindset. Lin takes us inside the morning she broke down crying in her car in Canada, after years of doing “everything right” on paper. good education, respected job, security. She unpacks how fear, burnout and people pleasing can quietly run your life while you tell yourself you are just being responsible. Together, Charu and Lin dig into the Success Trifecta. mindset, strategy, action. They challenge privilege questions, talk honestly about money, motherhood, ambition and guilt, and get practical about how to shift your inner game without quitting your job overnight or spending big on coaching. If you are sitting in your own parked car wondering how you got here, this conversation gives you language, tools and permission to want more without burning your life down. About the guest: Lin Yuan Su is a former high achieving registered dietitian and healthcare leader who walked away from a secure career after years of quiet burnout. Today she is a mindset trainer and success strategist who helps entrepreneurs and professionals create what she calls enlightened success. wealth, time freedom and health that coexist instead of compete. Blending science based thinking, subconscious mindset work and practical strategy, Lin supports clients to move from fear driven overwork into calm, confident leadership in business and life. She is also a wife and mom, and brings a grounded perspective on ambition, family and what it really takes to build a life that feels aligned, not just impressive on paper. Key takeaways: Mindset is the driver, strategy is the vehicle. Lin insists that copying someone’s business plan while keeping the same fearful, employee style thinking will often recreate burnout, not freedom. who you are being shapes what any strategy can do. Burnout can look “functional” from the outside. Years before that car breakdown, Lin was short tempered, exhausted and unmotivated at home, yet still performing at work. She now names those as clear burnout signs many high achievers normalize. You cannot afford to ignore your inner voice. Lin warns that staying misaligned out of fear can show up as chronic stress and even illness. She is not giving medical advice, but she stresses that emotional dis ease often becomes physical dis ease over time. Do not leap without a bridge. build one. Lin did not storm into her CEO’s office to quit. She stayed, got coaching, shifted her energy, left on a high note and built a thoughtful transition instead of a crisis exit. Mindset work is not only for the wealthy. Coaching is powerful, but Lin is clear. the real investment is time, energy and willingness to study. Books, podcasts and free resources can start a real inner shift if you actually work with them. Manifestation is discipline, not magic. Lin shares client stories, like a restaurant owner who grew revenue 400 percent while cutting her hours to a third, and her own fertility journey after releasing deep emotional blocks. She frames these as examples of what aligned mindset plus consistent action can open up, not as guarantees. For women, harmony beats “work life balance.” Lin blocks non negotiable time for family, self and business and aims for flow instead of rigid balance. She urges women to check whether their ambition comes from fear and ego, or from heart and purpose. How to connect with Lin Yuan-Su: Listeners can connect with Lin Yuan Su here.

In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, Avik sits down with author Lee Ann Walling to unpack The Salt and Light Express, a late life debut novel about grief, guilt, faith, and reinvention. Through the story of Chris, a woman in her sixties driving an RV across the United States to scatter her partner’s ashes, Lee Ann explores mindfulness, spiritual deconstruction, religious judgment, and the courage to love again. This is a grounded conversation for listeners navigating loss, questioning Christianity, rebuilding belonging, or considering indie publishing for their own story. If you are wondering whether it is too late to reinvent your life, this episode gives you a clear, honest reality check plus practical hope. About The Guest: Lee Ann Walling is a writer, former journalist, political and government strategist, land use planner, consultant, and now an indie author. At 69, she released her debut novel The Salt and Light Express, already earning praise from BookLife, Kirkus and Forward Reviews for its honest look at grief, spirituality, and late life transformation. Her own journey includes leaving, questioning, and reimagining Christianity across Methodist, Baptist, Episcopal and progressive faith spaces while continuously reinventing her career and identity. Key Takeaways  : Grief is not something to outrun. Chris’s RV journey shows how staying in motion can create space to sit with pain, guilt and love instead of spiritually bypassing it. Mindfulness is not a buzzword. Chris’s guilt after the accident comes from distraction at the wheel, which becomes a wake up call about presence, attention and how easily life changes in seconds. Faith can evolve without becoming fake. Lee Ann’s path through Methodist, Baptist, Episcopal and back to a questioning Methodist community mirrors Chris’s shift to a simpler, more honest form of Christianity. Honest dialogue breaks stereotypes. Chris’s ongoing conversations with a Southern Baptist pastor challenge both of them to rethink judgment, prayer, salvation and what following Jesus actually looks like in everyday life. Reinvention has no age limit. Lee Ann wrote her debut novel in an MFA program in her late sixties, skipped a broken traditional publishing system, and built an indie path that keeps full creative control.   How To Connect With The Guest  : You can connect with Lee Ann Walling and learn more about The Salt and Light Express here.Website: https://www.LeeAnnWalling.com She personally monitors messages coming through her site and replies directly.

In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, Avik sits down with technologist and human strategist Stephanie Sylvestre to unpack the real question on everyone’s mind. how do we use AI to uplift humans, not replace them. Stephanie shares how digital twins, vetted data and human in the loop design can expand access to mentorship, grow self agency and help people in low resource environments rise inside a tech driven world. From colorism and the erasure of Black history to job displacement fears and AI hallucinations, Stephanie calls out the realities without sugar coating, then reframes AI as a strategic tool for resilience, creativity and social mobility. This is a grounded, no nonsense conversation about using technology to scale belief, belonging and impact, especially for black and brown communities and anyone who has ever felt underestimated. About The Guest: Stephanie Sylvestre is a founder, innovator and strategist who builds AI solutions that center real people, not just algorithms. With a background in economic development and decades in technology and leadership, she now focuses on digital twins, AI mentoring and using vetted, bias aware data to increase self esteem, self agency and access to opportunity. Her work includes creating AI powered digital mentors and preserving Black history and lived experience in immersive, tech enabled ways. Key Takeaways: AI is not just about automation. when configured with vetted, high quality data and a clear purpose, it can act as a digital mentor, helping people take risks, grow confidence and see new paths. Self agency is the real unlock. people who believe they can influence their lives ask different questions, negotiate differently and create options instead of accepting fixed limits from jobs, policies or social norms. Many people self reject before the world rejects them. shifting from “I can’t” to “Let me see what’s possible” is a core mindset shift for careers, creativity and mental health in a tech driven world. AI hallucinations are a feature to manage, not a reason to run away. just like human conversations, we should trust but verify, keep humans in the loop and use AI as “copy, paste, edit,” not as absolute truth. Creativity and resourcefulness, especially in low resource environments, are underrated strategic advantages. these experiences train people to solve complex problems that AI alone cannot handle. Tech can help heal identity and belonging gaps by scaling representation. digital twins and AI tools can make it normal to see black and brown leaders, shifting what younger generations believe is possible for themselves.
