Welcome back to another edition of “I’m the problem, it’s me”, where I call bullshit on myself for the stuff I’ve been getting wrong, because we learn the most through our fuck-ups.If you’re listening to this, you’re probably dating or thinking about dating… but please (speaking from experience!), whatever you do, don’t date someone for what you think their potential is.Do not date for what someone could be and ignore what they are right now. This is what leads us to fall for the idea of people and stay much longer in bad relationships than we should… a recipe for abandoning yourself.So here’s my solution. Date for progress, instead. Because we’re all a work in progress.Tune in to hear about:Why the “I can fix them” attitude isn’t fair to your partnerStop telling yourself stories about who someone could be and accept them for who they are nowWhy we shouldn’t pressure our partners too much to changeHow to date for progress and unlock your partner’s vision of their own potentialSharing and building out a vision for the futureWhy dating for a specific metric of success or money isn’t always a good ideaMy framework for gaging progress and potentialOur show is produced by:Gillian Berner, Host, Producer & EditorOlivia Nashmi, Audio EngineerCarolyn Schissler, Designer & Web ProducerFor advertising and sponsorship inquiries, please contact Frequency Podcast Network.

Are you feeling lonely and disconnected? There’s a phenomenon right now I’m seeing in friendships, where we get stuck in the “catching up” loop.As we get older and enter our “splinter era” of different schedules, different priorities, and different life stages, it can feel like our friendships constantly take the backseat. We’re relegated to a one-dinner-a-month maintenance catchup that keeps us stuck in an endless loop of recounting our memories instead of making new ones.I miss the intimacy and close bonds we got in our teenage years and early 20s when sleepovers and shared meals and weekend getaways were the norms.So how do we go deeper in our friendships to create more intimacy?Tune in as I dive deep on:Why creating memories is more important than quick catchupsHow novelty and exciting experiences create lasting memoriesWhy some cities and places prioritize close community more than othersCombatting loneliness in places that feel isolatingThe case for doing monotonous daily tasks like grocery shopping togetherWhy being generous and accepting help will bring you closerSkipping the catchup coffees for a new experience or adventureWhy we need to lean into hard conversations with a goal of resolutionThe 3 Fs: Friendships, flexibility and forgivenessOur show is produced by:Gillian Berner, Host, Producer & EditorOlivia Nashmi, Audio EngineerCarolyn Schissler, Designer & Web ProducerSara Valentine, Content ProducerFor advertising and sponsorship inquiries, please contact Frequency Podcast Network.

It’s World Mental Health Day this week, and we're having lots of important conversations to increase awareness around emotional wellbeing. I called in Trauma Therapist Simone Saunders to learn more about somatic therapy, how our mental health impacts our physical health, and how trauma and distress shows up in our bodies.Anxiety and mental illness can show up in so many ways physically — from getting sweaty and experiencing heart palpitations or nausea, to general posture and shoulder stiffness, gut issues, and sleep problems. More and more we're seeing physical diagnoses like chronic pain and IBS linked back to trauma and nervous system dysregulation. And it doesn't always have to be a big T trauma... we talk a lot in this interview about how repeated micro traumas can build up to have the same impact. So if you want to take control of your mental health and expand your techniques and awareness, this episode is a must-listen. Simone has a Master's in Clinical Social Work, with a specialization in trauma, emotional regulation, anxiety and depression. As a trauma therapist and educator she has over 800,000 followers across her Instagram and TikTok accounts, the cognitive corner, where she helps people understand the connection between the mind and body and patterns that your nervous system engages in.Tune in to hear more about:Signs we might struggle to regulate our emotions and nervous system, and the best tools for nervous system regulationThe typical survival responses we cycle through when triggeredNavigating familial relationships or partnerships that trigger the dysregulation loopUnhelpful coping strategies that might make you feel worseCognitive bypassing: The difference between intellectualizing and feelingHow trauma manifests physicallyWhat if you can't remember your trauma?Somatic therapy techniques and processing stored traumaBuilding a life that's healthy for your nervous systemNavigating the loneliness and isolation on our mental health journeyFollow Simone on Instagram and TikTok.Our show is produced by:Gillian Berner, Host, Producer & EditorOlivia Nashmi, Audio EngineerCarolyn Schissler, Designer & Web ProducerSara Valentine, Content ProducerFor advertising and sponsorship inquiries, please contact Frequency Podcast Network.

Do you guys feel like time keeps passing by faster the older we get? When we’re kids, summer stretches endlessly, and in adulthood, it’s gone in the blink of an eye. Today we’re diving into the intersection of time, memories, novelty and neuroscience to figure out how we can slow down our perception of time and make more memories. Enter: Liz Moody’s Novelty Rule. It turns out, when we’re learning and experiencing new things, we create new neural pathways, and time feels longer/slower.As we get older and fall into rigid routines and monotony, we’re not laying down new neural circuitry, so everything blends together and we lose track of time.So how do we stop time from flying by?

Welcome back to another episode of “I’m the problem, it’s me,” where I call bullshit on myself for the things I’m getting wrong, so we can all learn from the struggle. Today’s adulting confession: I’m terrible at letting things go. I never know when to walk away and call it quits, and I try to make things work long past the point of productivity or hopeIf you’re listening to this, you’re probably feeling a little overwhelmed or frustrated at how hard you’ve been trying in some area in your life.This episode is your permission slip to stop trying to do something if it’s not working.We’re taught our whole lives that “quitting is bad”, and “If you try harder you’ll do better” — but trying harder isn’t always the solution to achieving more.Tune in as we explore a beautiful metaphor I heard at Lewis Howes’ Summit of Greatness.

Do you ever feel like you're less productive when you’re less busy? It’s like the more time you have, the longer it takes to get anything done, and the busier you are, the more you get done. You’re not alone my friends — that’s actually thanks to a phenomenon called Parkinson’s Law. Parkinson’s Law is the idea that work expands to fill the time allotted for its completion… a task will grow more complex and all-consuming the more time you have to get it done. For people (like me) who struggle with time management, this can equal A LOT OF WASTED TIME if you don’t leverage it properly. But imagine you could get your 8-hour-a-day job done in 5 hours? I’ve tried-and-tested time management strategies and self-imposed deadlines, and found that I can get way more done in less time when I use this phenomenon to my advantage. We’re in our work smarter, not harder season, so tune in to learn more about: The origin story of Parkinson’s Law How it leads to major inefficiency and wasted meetings How to use it to our advantage to get more productive Setting time limits and deadlines to keep you on track My favourite time management and calendar strategies (hellllo pomodoro)Banishing ‘busy culture’ and reworking the corporate 9-5Why multitasking can work against you Let’s take back control of our time and get back to living. Our show is produced by:Gillian Berner, Host, Producer & EditorOlivia Nashmi, Audio EngineerCarolyn Schissler, Designer & Web ProducerSara Valentine, Content ProducerFor advertising and sponsorship inquiries, please contact Frequency Podcast Network.
