    282:How to reparent yourself to show up better in relationships & heal your inner child with Dr. Neeta Bhushan

    Hey, Brave Table fam! 💕 Are you ready to unpack the emotional luggage you’ve been hauling around all year? In this episode, I’m diving into something so many of us struggle with: healing the inner child within us. Whether it’s the little girl or boy who felt unseen, unheard, or just plain overwhelmed, we’re talking about how to reparent, nurture, and love that part of yourself so you can step into your next evolution. The holidays have this magical (and let’s be real, sometimes triggering) way of bringing up all the feels. From family dynamics to unmet childhood needs, we’ll explore how to pause, reflect, and pour back into YOU. Let’s get into those juicy tools for reparenting, healing, and turning those holiday triggers into empowering transformations. What you'll get out of this episode…  Inner child work is about reparenting yourself, not reliving the past. Holiday triggers may invite healing unmet childhood needs. Simple practices like journaling, setting an altar, or reframing thoughts can shift old patterns. Family dynamics don’t define you. You can meet them with love, grace, and zero expectations. Healing is a full-circle journey—whether you’re a parent or reparenting yourself. TIMESTAMPS [00:00:00] Welcome to The Brave Table – Why healing your inner child matters [00:02:00] Affirmation of the day: “I am worthy of wonderful things…” [00:04:00] Why the holidays trigger old wounds [00:06:00] Little Neeta’s story: Lessons from childhood [00:09:00] Reparenting your inner child: Practical tools and rituals [00:12:00] Facing family triggers with love and grace [00:15:00] Reframing memories and rewriting the narrative [00:18:00] A powerful pause: Recognizing your reactions and trauma responses [00:20:00] Closing reflections and next steps for healing To receive a free gift, email a screenshot of your 5-star review of The Brave Table to support@globalgrit.co 😘 Follow along for more tips, community, and resources to brave a better you!

    Hey Brave Table fam! Today, we’re diving into a topic so many of us wrestle with — rest! Why is it that we feel guilty when we take time for ourselves? Why does resting sometimes make us feel lazy or unproductive? Growing up in a household where rest was synonymous with "not enough," I get it. In this episode, I share my personal journey with redefining rest, unpacking those old narratives, and learning to truly savor the slow. I also reflect on insights from Dr. Avanti Singh, who reminds us of the dangers of constantly "pushing" — especially around the holidays when the pressure to "do it all" can feel overwhelming. So let's get comfortable, release the guilt, and step into a mindset where rest is not just okay — it’s necessary. Let’s explore this together and make peace with rest as part of our growth.

    Welcome back to The Brave Table, lovelies! Today’s episode is for anyone who’s ever felt the sting of a friendship breakup or the pull to step into a new version of themselves while navigating the complexities of relationships. I’m joined by none other than my beautiful friend, Simone Heng, author of Let's Talk About Loneliness and The Secret Pandemic. Simone is a human connection specialist, a former international broadcaster, and a powerhouse speaker. Together, we dive deep into the often-untold story of friendship breakups, how boundaries change everything after 40, and why true connection is the ultimate antidote to loneliness.

Get cozy, grab your tea (or wine!), and let's be brave together. What you'll get out of this episode…  As you age, you'll care less about others' opinions and confidently honor your boundaries. Friendship breakups are painful but open the door to more aligned connections. True connection conquers loneliness, thriving in deep, authentic relationships over superficial ones.

簡介

Grab a seat at The Brave Table for unfiltered conversations about all the unpredictable moments we face on our journey through life—the raw, the real, the messy—and how to overcome them and thrive. This is your oasis for the next season of who you are becoming—where you defeat your imposter syndrome, ditch comparing your life to others, embrace the unconventional, and recognize your evolution and expansion. Join host Dr. Neeta Bhushan, a former dentist turned author, serial entrepreneur, and mama of two, for weekly episodes on strengthening your mental health and emotional fitness so you can face challenges with grace and grit. Let’s get brave as we navigate this human experience together with lots of love, new perspectives, and a dose of laughter along the way.
