    Achieving Whole Wellness Through Radical Acceptance

    Today, I speak to Dr. Debaki Charkrabarti who will address moms’ emotional health, sharing her own story of being a single mom by choice and introducing us to Dialectical Behavior Therapy , or DBT, a type of psychotherapy that combines emotion regulation with concepts of distress tolerance, acceptance, and mindful awareness.  With specialized training in addiction and trauma, Debaki offers concrete tools to help clients manage their emotions, finding alternative ways to self-soothe and cope with overwhelming situations.  She forms a treatment plan in collaboration with her clients, identifying goals upfront and leveraging existing strengths to tap into their inner resilience. Talk therapy may not immediately solve the problem of our immense mental load, but after this conversation, you may be more open to therapy being a safe space to work on coping mechanisms and to create a blueprint that guides you on a  path forward which includes understanding, radical acceptance, and a kick ass self soothing kit!    You can learn more about Debaki on her website:  www.drdebaki.com Connect with her on LinkedIn at https://www.linkedin.com/in/debaki-chakrabarti-phd   Additional reading: Radical Acceptance:  Marsha Linehan (psychologist who developed DBT): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OTG7YEWkJFI Marsha Linehan's foundation: https://behavioraltech.org/on-radical-acceptance-part-1/ https://dbtselfhelp.com/dbt-skills-list/distress-tolerance/radical-acceptance/   Self-soothing:  https://dbt.tools/distress_tolerance/self-soothe.php  https://dbtselfhelp.com/dbt-skills-list/distress-tolerance/self-soothe/ Cashing our Trillions is Hosted and Produced by Common Solutions Media and Yvonne So.

    Achieving Whole Wellness With Plant Medicine

    As someone who suffered from anxiety and postpartum depression, Amy found great relief with CBD. After seeing the difference in herself, she knew she had to help others understand how plant medicine could help in their overall wellbeing and spearheaded her journey to become a CBD Educator. Calm Better Days guides CBD Curious folks on how to assess the benefits of plant medicine. In this episode, Amy will educate you how CBD works in our body, understand the nuances of different delivery methods, and how to determine your ideal dosage. I don't come to Cannabis with much lived experience, and my largest takeaway after speaking to Amy  is “do your homework!” It’s obviously done wonders for her and how she shows up as a mom. The healing properties of plant medicine, if consumed correctly, may be a natural path towards total well-being.  You can learn more about Amy and Calm Better Days from her website: https://calmbetterdays.co/ Connect with Calm Better Days on Instagram @calm_better_days   Cashing our Trillions is Hosted and Produced by Common Solutions Media and Yvonne So.

    Back to the Future: ABCs of Web3 with GenX NFT Founder and CEO Sarah Monson

    In this episode, I’m going to attempt to demystify Web3 for y’all. Who better to bring on and explain this space than a mom who has been doing just that: creating a community by and  for moms in Web3.  My guest today is Sarah Monson, the Founder and CEO of GenX NFTs who is here to usher 65M+ Gen-X 80s kids (and those who wish they were) into Web3, through relatable education and core memories from childhood. Sarah’s Latch Key Kids NFT collection was created by GEN-X, the generation of MTV, Bob Ross, trapper keepers and latch key kids, for GEN-X!   Sarah is going to walk us through some basic terminology you’ve probably heard thrown around, like crypto, the metaverse, NFTs and hopefully throughout this next ½ hour,  our conversation helps you understand the space better so us  moms can also get involved and find community in the world of web3.  So c’mon moms, travel back to the future with us!   To learn more about GenX NFTs https://www.genxnfts.xyz/ https://twitter.com/GENxNFTs https://www.instagram.com/genxnfts/   Other Web3 Communities we spoke about in this episode https://thehug.xyz/ https://www.mybff.com/ Cashing our Trillions is Hosted and Produced by Common Solutions Media and Yvonne So.

    Northern Exposure: Exploring Communal Living with Little Mountain Cohousing residents Jo and Kim

    Today we’re taking our podcast up north to Vancouver, British Columbia in CANADA!  We’ve all heard the saying “it takes a village to raise a child” But what if you LIVED in an intentional community that mimicked this village mindset?  I got in touch with Jo and Kim, both moms from Little Mountain Cohousing.  Jo and Kim are both moms who sought out cohousing early on in their momming journey for the support and familial community offered by cohousing. You will  hear about their living setup centered around common meals, communal spaces that include an outdoor courtyard, music rooms, car-sharing and a school bus for kids AND…built in babysitting and after school care!  Both Kim and Jo also work outside of the house, and they will give us a glimpse of the Canadian parental leave system that will truly make you rethink how we possibly are OK with the paltry system we have in place here in the United States.    You can learn more about Little Mountain Cohousing on their website  Cashing our Trillions is Hosted and Produced by Common Solutions Media and Yvonne So.

    Finding your Village with June Care CEO and Founder Gretchen Salyer

    My guest today is Gretchen Salyer, CEO and Founder of June Care, a company she started during the pandemic to tackle our childcare crisis by connecting families who need childcare with stay-at-home moms who can care for their kids.  Gretchen’s entire business model is centered on valuing and paying moms for the care work we do, and in the process, creating a private sector solution to our childcare crisis–one that leaves over 50% of American families living in a childcare desert. Gretchen is also part of a small percentage of all female founded companies who successfully raised venture capital, and she gives listeners a glimpse into  her start-up-from-home mom path towards entrepreneurship.     You can learn more about June Care on their website, and follow on IG @junecare.co Interested in becoming an ambassador mom and being a part of a growing mom-owned start up? Check out the June Care ambassador program. It's a great side hustle and work from home opportunity!  https://www.junecare.co/ambassador-moms     Cashing our Trillions is Hosted and Produced by Common Solutions Media and Yvonne So.

    Springboard to Opportunities: Changing the Narrator with Aisha Nyandoro

    In 2018, Aisha Nyandoro, the Founding CEO of Springboard to Opportunities, created the Magnolia Mother’s Trust –  a new initiative that provides low-income, Black mothers in Jackson, Mississippi $1,000 cash on a monthly basis for one year straight, no strings attached. Now, it's  the country’s longest-running guaranteed income program, and the only one in the world to focus on Black women.   Aisha executes this work with whole hearted optimism, a sense of humor and so much humanity. I hope it’s contagious, and inspiring, and if nothing else, it helps open a conversation within yourself about our own privilege and how we determine deservedness. In this episode, you will hear about Aisha’s work on shifting gendered and racialized narratives around poverty and deservedness, and how the success of Magnolio Mother’s Trust can be scaled nationally through Federal policies.   You can learn more about Aisha and Springboard to Opportunities from their website: https://springboardto.org/   Connect with Springboard to Opportunities on Instagram @springboard_to   Cashing our Trillions is Hosted and Produced by Common Solutions Media and Yvonne So.

    The Rise of the Activated Mom: Suburban Moms Mobilizing for School Board Elections

    This episode is about the craziness that revolved (or devolved) around our school board elections last November. I published it with our local paper, the Arizona Daily Star on the eve of our school board elections as a PSA about the extremism that was creeping into our community.  Through the advocacy of my mom friends, our three pro-public school candidates won by an overwhelming majority.  Unfortunately, our school board meetings remain a fierce battleground for our culture wars. That’s why it’s so important to revisit this episode; my mom friends’ activism over the last several years can provide a blueprint on how to engage within your own community, and push back on false narratives and win back the agenda!   You can connect with my mom friends on their private Facebook page, The Real CFSD: Allies for All at https://www.facebook.com/groups/1000255510670456/   Cashing our Trillions is Hosted and Produced by Common Solutions Media and Yvonne So.

    The Rise of the Activated Mom: Power of Politics with Michigan State Senator Mallory McMorrow

    Mallory McMorrow became the youngest woman ever elected to the Michigan Senate after defeating a Republican incumbent in her first-ever run for office in 2018. Mallory has been a vocal advocate for gun violence prevention, public education, and standing up against hateful rhetoric that aims to scapegoat already marginalized people. In this episode, Mallory speaks candidly about some of her new mom moments, the moment that made her viral and catapulted her to national fame, and  how we can activate more suburban moms into public service, so we can promote policies that truly reflect our needs.
