In this episode, I talk to the amazingly knowledgeable Alex Mack of NarcSurvivorAdvocate about how to navigate family court. You know I'm not a proponent of entering into family court, but when you have to, or are forced to by the super fun narcissist, you need someone like Alex Mack in your corner, giving you the right tools and strategies. This is a must listen for anyone navigating the dumpster fire that is family court.

In this episode we talk about the importance of injecting more playfulness and silliness into your home. Abuse and abusers rob victims, children and adults alike, of their ability to be playful and silly. Adding more playfulness and silliness in your home creates core memories, allows your children to simply be children, and helps to regulate their nervous systems.

Lots of easy, low energy but high impact, ideas here.

This is such a powerful episode, where I talk to the amazing, whip smart and incredibly articulate, Paola Telfer, a UBC electrical engineering grad, turned entrepreneur who created Sens.ai, a revolutionary at home brain training system. Her own accident, which left her at rock bottom and wanting to heal herself, was the catalyst for her wanting to create a system that was far more accessible to the average person.

We dive into how this product can help survivors retrain their brain, create new neuropathways, and really live lives they love, despite what the abuser in their lives, do, or don't do. It really is such an empowering episode because we dive into how this product can help change your brain, which has been impacted by abuse, and therefore, your life.

Spoiler alert: it truly does work and has literally changed my life. I've gone from not sleeping, to consistently sleeping through the night, after a 20 year battle with sleep. And my focus and productivity have drastically improved as well.
