Casa De Confidence Podcast Julie DeLucca-Collins

I'm thrilled to share with you some exciting insights from my conversation, where I had the pleasure of interviewing Jana Short, the inspiring editor-in-chief of Best Holistic Life Magazine. 

Jana Short is not just the editor-in-chief of a magazine with over 1 million subscribers, she is a woman of purpose. Despite her busy schedule, she joined me on my podcast, and I couldn't be more thrilled. Jana's work has earned her numerous accolades, including being named one of the Los Angeles Women of the Year and the top influencer by Los Angeles Entrepreneur Magazine.
The Power of Holistic Living: Jana's journey into holistic health began when traditional medicine failed her. She discovered a world of holistic approaches that brought her hope and a new perspective on life. Despite her medical diagnosis, she found a way to thrive and create meaningful memories. She emphasized the importance of mindset and the power of choosing happiness, regardless of external circumstances.Spirituality vs. Religion: Jana distinguishes between spirituality and religion, stating that she is spiritual rather than religious. She believes that spirituality is about how we show up in the world and the positive energy we project.The Importance of Self-Care: Jana shared her insights on self-care and the importance of saying yes to oneself. She believes that when we say yes to ourselves, we are actually saying yes to everyone else because we can only pour from a full cup. By caring for ourselves, we can show up better for others and make a greater impact in the world.Redefining Success on Social Media: Jana shared a valuable tip she implemented on the magazine's Instagram account. She removed all likes and comments because she wanted to focus on opening up conversations and connecting with her audience more deeply. This change relieved her of the pressure to seek approval from others and encouraged people to reach out to her directly with their questions and thoughts.Building Confidence: Jana reflects on the importance of daily working on confidence. She shares that confidence is something she needs to work on continuously.I'm incredibly grateful for the opportunity to have Janet on the show and for her contributions to the magazine. If you'd like to connect with Janet, you can find her on Instagram @janashortofficial, or visit her website at janashort.com.

In a recent episode of my podcast, I had the pleasure of interviewing Brenda Adelman, an award-winning actor, forgiveness coach, and a beacon of resilience. Brenda's journey from personal tragedy to forgiveness and healing is nothing short of inspiring. In this blog post, I'll share some of the key insights from our conversation.
Meeting Brenda Adelman

Brenda Adelman is not just an accomplished actor but also a recipient of the Hero of Forgiveness award. Her one-woman show, "My Brooklyn Hamlet," is a testament to her life story of forgiving the unforgivable. Beyond her acting career, Brenda is a teacher and mentor for mission-driven performers and small business owners, helping them create successful TEDx-style talks and one-person shows.
I first met Brenda at her summit, where she was a gracious host. Her content led to incredible transformations for the participants, a testament to her ability to inspire and guide others.

Brenda's Origin Story

Brenda's life took a tragic turn when her father killed her mother and married her aunt. This defining moment could have led her to withdraw, but instead, she chose to move forward with forgiveness and healing. Her acting background helped her express herself and cope with the tragedy, leading her to create her one-woman show and eventually pursue a master's degree in spiritual psychology.
The Importance of Healthy Boundaries

During our conversation, Brenda emphasized the importance of setting healthy boundaries. She suggested using a scale of 1 to 5 to gauge one's feelings towards someone, with 1 being intense hatred and 5 being neutrality or even sending positive energy to that person. She also recommended tools like free-form writing and expressing anger in a safe and healthy way, such as through therapy or primal scream workshops.

Brenda shared an example of setting a healthy boundary with an abusive family member during the holidays. Instead of avoiding the family gathering, she suggested not staying in the same home as the abusive sibling or setting a time limit for the visit if negative behavior arises. This way, one can still show love and support for their mother while protecting their own well-being.
The Power of Forgiveness

Brenda's journey of forgiveness was initially painful but ultimately healing. She explained that expressing anger is crucial for forgiveness to occur. I shared my experience setting boundaries with my family and emphasized the importance of forgiveness in the process.

I'm thrilled to share with you the latest episode of our podcast, where we had the pleasure of hosting Tobie Spears, the founder and director of the nonprofit Be Humanitarian. Their mission:  
To live a life full of meaningful work, building cherished connections, healing sorrows, sprinkling smiles, and sharing hope. 
Tobie's passion for making a difference is truly inspiring, and her story resonated deeply with me, given my personal connections to Latin America.
Here are some key takeaways from our conversation:
The Birth of Be Humanitarian: Tobie's journey to Guatemala began with a sense of adventure and a desire to experience something new. She found a community in need and a calling to make a difference. Her organization now provides meals, educational support, and income opportunities to a remote Guatemalan community.The Impact: Be Humanitarian started small, but its impact has been profound. From providing breakfast three days a week to needy children, they now serve thousands of monthly meals. During the pandemic, they even provided dinner boxes, demonstrating their commitment to meeting basic needs.Empowerment and Collaboration: Tobie's vision goes beyond charity. She aims to empower the local people to create a sustainable system for themselves. The organization prioritizes collaboration and involvement from the community, ensuring that the parents and children in their program have a say in how things are done.The Challenges: Guatemala is one of the most malnourished countries in the world, with a stark divide between the wealthy and the impoverished. Tobie and I discussed the financial challenges families face and the difficult choices they have to make between basic needs like food and education.Service Vacations: Be Humanitarian offers unique adventures and service vacations. These trips are humanitarian-based and include activities like fair trade education and hands-on service in the community. It's a different kind of vacation that leaves a lasting impact on both the participants and the community.Tobie's story is a testament to the power of compassion and the difference one person can make. I hope you'll join me in supporting Be Humanitarian's mission and consider tuning in to our podcast to hear more about Tobie's incredible journey.
Remember, even a small contribution can make a big difference. As Tobie shared, just $37 a month can provide a child with meals and educational support in Guatemala. That's less than the cost of a few fast-food meals!

As a podcast host, I can engage in enlightening conversations with various experts. Recently, I had the pleasure of interviewing Leah Morrison, a trauma educator, coach, and healer. Our conversation was insightful and deeply personal as we delved into the topic of trauma, its impact on individuals and communities, and the journey toward healing.

Lea Morrison is a remarkable individual who has dedicated her life to bridging the gap between therapists and the coaching and wellness industry. Her journey towards reclaiming her well-being after childhood trauma led her to her current career. As we began our conversation, I couldn't help but acknowledge the crisis happening in Leah's community due to a recent wildfire, the McDougall wildfire, which has displaced many people in Kelowna, British Columbia.

Natural disasters, like the wildfire in Lea's community or the recent hurricane in California, can cause collective trauma. Lea explained that trauma encompasses big and small events, often called "big T" and "small T" traumas. She opened up about her personal experience with trauma and its impact on her mental health, leading to feelings of hopelessness and deep shame.

I believe it's crucial to normalize these feelings and spread awareness about available resources and support for those struggling with mental health issues. Trauma can affect the brain's ability to function optimally, leading to difficulties in problem-solving and making sense of things. It's like using dial-up internet instead of high-speed internet. The stigma and self-shame that often accompany these struggles further hinder one's ability to think clearly and seek help.

Lea shared her vision for the future, which includes launching a trauma-aware practitioner certification program. This program aims to provide wellness practitioners, coaches, and therapists with the tools and knowledge to support their clients better.

I encourage everyone to connect with Lea, explore her work, and show support. You can find more about her and her programs on her website.

Also, consider supporting organizations like Mamas for Mamas in Lea's community. Let's continue to spread awareness, support each other, and work towards healing from trauma.

Madelaine's impressive credentials extend beyond her academic achievements, as she is also a best-selling author and has held prestigious positions at Harvard Medical School.

I found myself resonating with Madelaine's passion for learning. However, our conversation also emphasized the importance of distinguishing between moving toward something positive and avoiding something that must be addressed. We discussed how unresolved issues and patterns could repeat if not properly addressed, a lesson that is crucial for personal growth.
For those interested in connecting with Madelaine, she provides her website and email for listeners to reach out. She also offers a free strategy session, encouraging listeners to take action.
