  1. Announcement + An Invitation to Share Your Relationship with Care

    Announcement + An Invitation to Share Your Relationship with Care

    Sometimes you have to say No to something in order to say Yes to something else. At least that's the approach I've taken in my life these past few years. And it's helped me to keep my sanity:-) In this week's solo episode, I share why I'm taking a break from podcasting for a few months. **Hint** It's so I can take some time to work on a project that has been on my heart and mind for years.  I want to create an online sanctuary space that will help to empower nurturing people to make the care of their body, mind and heart a priority.  I hope to facilitate this through Restorative Care. I've talked a bit about Restorative Care in a few of my solo podcast episodes. But if this is a new term for you, it's my twist on self-care.  The root of Restorative Care is Self-Compassion.  Restorative care helps us reconnect to ourselves. It helps us to return home and allows us to feel grounded and connected to our truth.  It's offers a holistic approach to our overall well-being that involves Movement, Play + Creativity, Rest + Recovery, Gratitude and Connection. . My intention is to create a community that will allow us to practice Restorative Care together. I'm choosing to take a break from the newsletter and the podcast so that I can have time to bring this to life. But I also want to invite you to share your story with me…. I'd love to hear from you so that I can take your needs into consideration as I begin to put this together. I made this form to make it as easy as possible to share your story.   If you would prefer to just chat with me over the phone, please reach out to me at maureen@maureenryan.co. I'll schedule a time that works for both of us. To learn more about this episode and any resources mentioned, please see the show notes. Stay Connected: Instagram MaureenRyan.co

    Nitika Chopra: Nurturing Community with Empathy, Love and Support

    In this episode I talk to Nitika Chopra. She is the founder of Chronicon which is dedicated to elevating the lives of those living with a chronic illness.  In this conversation, we talk about Nitika's own personal journey and how that helped to shape Chronicon and allowed it to be a space that is real, loving and just incredibly supportive for people who may feel very alone because they may not know other people who are experiencing chronic illness. You can feel Nitika's heart in everything she does. And the community members are so supportive and amazing in their own right. If you know someone or you are someone who has a chronic illness... Or if you're someone like me who wants to be an ally and support those in her life and her work who have a chronic illness, I would love to encourage you to check out Chronicon. Nitika offers new members a free week so that you can dip your toe in and see what it's all about.  To learn more about this episode and any resources mentioned, please see the show notes.

  3. Cultivating a Relationship with Your Feelings

    25.04.2021

    Cultivating a Relationship with Your Feelings

    In my solo podcast episode this week, I talk about how important it is to cultivate a relationship with your feelings. So that you can begin to identify and name your feelings.  This simple step can provide you with so much information that can help you make choices and move forward in a way that addresses your needs and aligns with your values. This sounds simple…. But it's not.  We've been conditioned to not feel our feelings.  And because of that...cultivating a relationship with our feelings is a process and a journey for many of us. Especially for those of us who worry that we're not "good enough" and wear the armor of people-pleasing and perfectionism to protect ourselves. When you're wearing armor that's designed to hide your insecurities. You not only protect yourself from the judgement of others.  You also "protect" yourself from FEELING your true feelings. And that's where the real danger lies. When the "should's" and "expectations" hijack your feelings and keep you caught in your thoughts. You can become disconnected from your feelings and from your sense of self.   In this week's solo podcast episode, I talk about the ways I use Restorative Care to cultivate a relationship with my feelings and why I think this is so important in today's world. We've been conditioned to believe our feelings are a sign of weakness. Why is that?  Who wrote that narrative? And what purpose does it serve? I'd love to invite you to explore those questions with me in this week's episode. To be totally honest, I had another episode planned but switched gears after I allowed myself time to write as I processed the news of the past few weeks. In doing so, I discovered what was really on my mind and in my heart. I hope that you'll allow yourself some time to cultivate and create a safe space for your feelings. If you do, please let me know. I would love to see what you create or allow to come forth. To learn more about this episode and any resources mentioned, please see the show notes.

    Cazzie Pantoja: Truth teller

    In this episode I talk to Cazzie Pantoja. She is a Truth Teller. And someone who is deeply rooted in her values.  I so appreciate her sharing some of her experience growing up in NYC, navigating academia, dealing with grief and raising her 4 boys to know they had the roots and wings to flourish in their own unique ways.  She has so many nuggets of wisdom to share and I'm so grateful that she took the time to share some of her story with us. I hope you enjoy our conversation. To learn more about this episode and any resources mentioned, please see the show notes. Stay Connected: Instagram MaureenRyan.co

    Reimagine, Recalibrate and Renew Your Relationship with Care

    I'm popping in for another solo episode. And I have a question for you. Do you ever feel like you're failing at self-care? I'm curious... because I feel like so many of us struggle to integrate self-care into our lives.  And then we feel guilty or bad about ourselves because it becomes another item on the  todo list that we didn't get to… Today, I want to explore why so many of us feel that way.  And also offer some ideas on ways that we can begin to shift our perspective and relationship with care. To begin to reimagine, recalibrate and renew our relationship with care.  So that we can feel empowered to make our care a priority.   In today's episode I share: My twist and reframe on self-care as restorative care which includes a healthy dose of self-compassion. The history of self-care so that we can compare it to our current understanding and relationship with care.  Why I don't believe you are failing as an individual at self-care. Some ideas on ways we can begin to reimagine, recalibrate and renew our relationship with our care. To learn more about this episode and any resources mentioned, please see the show notes.

  6. Bianca Bloomfield: Creating Space to Feel

    Bianca Bloomfield: Creating Space to Feel

    In this episode I talk to Bianca Bloomfield. She is someone who is creating and allowing space for people to be with and to move through their big feelings in a loving way. She does this work in a variety of ways.  Primarily, by just BEING WHO SHE IS AND ALLOWING HER TRUE SELF TO SHINE THROUGH. Which is so often a journey in and of itself. And something we explore through this episode. She also facilitates Breathwork healing, works as a yoga instructor for kids and is a beautiful writer.   One of the goals of this podcast is to share interviews with regular people who are becoming aligned to their values and to also share tools that can help us be lovingly present and care for our needs and our emotions. There is no one way that works for everyone. And I'm a big believer in building a toolbox of skills and strategies to help facilitate our own personal and collective wellbeing. Which is why I'm so happy to share this conversation which explores Bianca's personal journey and how she discovered tools that help her to facilitate healing in her own life... Tools that she now shares with others.  I hope you enjoy our conversation! To learn more about this episode and any resources mentioned, please see the show notes.

    Reclaim Time for your Priorities

    Has the pandemic helped you become more clear on what you really value and  what you feel is essential? I know so many people are feeling overwhelmed and exhausted right now. The idea of doing one more thing seems impossible. Which is why I'm channeling Maxine Waters and encouraging you to reclaim your time.  But let's be realistic...this is easier said than done for so many of us.  In this week's episode, I share how time for rest, play and following your curiosity are some wonderful ways to become reconnected with your priorities and yourself.   To learn more about this episode and any resources mentioned, please see the show notes.

  8. Sara Shah: Finding Balance

    Sara Shah: Finding Balance

    In this episode I talk to Sara Shah. She is the founder of Mother Yin which is a holistic platform designed to help women find balance in their bodies, minds and lives. This is a passion for Sara that becomes even more evident as we learn about her own personal journey. It was so interesting to discover how her different areas of expertise come together and allow her to find balance in her own life. I also really appreciated our conversation about the work she is doing with Mother Yin and how that work can help open up the conversation about the menstrual cycle and women's health in general. I think it's so important that we are able to have conversations and share our experiences in order to care for ourselves and each other.
