    EP 39 - Somatic Coaching for (Peri)Menopause: Conversation with Shilpa Khare

    This show is all about practicing the skills to manage our minds as intuitive founders—so we can build and lead without abandoning ourselves. In this episode, my guest, Shilpa Khare, unpacks how this work becomes especially important during (peri)menopause—a phase often misunderstood and reduced to something to “fix” in women’s lives. Shilpa is a New Jersey-based holistic coach who integrates coaching with craniosacral therapy (CST) to support women in navigating this transition by working with their nervous system and relating to their bodies in a more intentional way. You’ll hear: What led Shilpa to question the conventional understanding of menopause.What CST is and how it supports nervous system regulation. How symptoms like pain and anxiety can be understood differently.What the biggest myth is about (peri)menopause & how you can reframe it.What becomes possible when women begin to trust their bodies in a new way.You can find out all about Shilpa and reach out to her through her website at: https://craniolongevity.com/ Visit ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠WWW.Roxanaakhbari.com ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠to access my other free coaching resources or to book a free consultation call to explore how we can work together.

    EP 38 - Boundaries for Intuitive Founders in Difficult Times #2

    If you listened to last week’s episode, you might have noticed where your energy is being stretched too thin. But even when we recognize the need for boundaries, it’s not always clear how to actually draw them. In this second episode of a two-part mini series, I walk you through a simple, practical process for setting boundaries in a way that is intentional and rooted in self-love. This is not about controlling others or withdrawing support—it’s about taking responsibility for how you choose to show up when your capacity is limited. Building on the awareness from Part 1, this episode focuses on how to move from noticing to action. You’ll hear: What boundaries are not (and why this matters).What boundaries are and how to define them for yourself. How to identify the specific behaviors that drain your energy. How to decide your response in advance and make it non-negotiable. Why practicing boundaries consistently is key to building self-trust.

    EP 37 - Boundaries for Intuitive Founders in Difficult Times #1

    In moments of crisis , many of us feel a strong pull to support the people around us. That is amazing! But sometimes, supporting others can emotionally overwhelm us. People in marginalized groups are often expected to hold emotional space for others without noticing the cost to overriding their own capacity. In times like this, the same people often end up carrying even more while feeling guilty to admit that their energy is drained. In this first episode of a two-part mini series, I explore why boundaries matter during times like this. I also explain why we tend to ignore our boundaries, especially if our support is historically taken for granted, and how we can notice where boundaries may be needed in our lives. In the next episode, I’ll talk about how we can draw those boundaries in ways that are intentional and supportive of both ourselves and the people we care about. You’ll hear: Why difficult times can intensify existing patterns of emotional labor.What thought patterns often create guilt around having boundaries.How to loosen those patterns.How to notice where you may need boundaries right now.Visit ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠WWW.Roxanaakhbari.com ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠to access my other free coaching resources or to book a free consultation call to explore how we can work together.

    EP 36 - Re-post: “Yes, And...” Or, How to Handle Frustration

    We are in the midst of a devastating war unfolding in the Middle East following the recent bombardments of Iran by the U.S. and Israel and Iran’s retaliation across the region. In the first few days, I noticed a pattern in myself and many friends: because of the scale of this violence, our brains resisted accepting the reality of the war and instead tried to analyze and understand it. But when our minds resist reality, we often lose access to the inner resources we need to care for ourselves and support others. So I decided to re-share a short practice from an earlier episode called “yes, and…”—a simple tool that helps loosen our mind’s resistance so we can respond more intentionally to what’s happening. You’ll hear: What the "yes, and..." practice is.The cost of resisting to accept painful realities.How thinking of the possibility that we can navigate reality begins with accepting itWhy the core idea of the "yes, and''" tool is useful no matter the scale of the painful reality we face.Visit ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠WWW.Roxanaakhbari.com ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠to access my other free coaching resources or to book a free consultation call to explore how we can work together.

    This show is all about skills to take control of what we can be in charge of as intuitive founders by practicing managing our own minds.

Seema is a leadership coach and the author of The Path to Conscious leadership: 5 Steps to Better Decisions and Results. You’ll hear: Why leadership is not limited to business or organizations.What Seema means by conscious leadership.Why Seema believes transforming organizations has to start from the leaders who are willing to do the work of transforming themselves.How she helps leaders resolve the dilemmas they face.The most common blindspot she sees in leaders.You can find out all about Seema and reach out to her through her website at: ⁠https://www.seemadhanoa.com/⁠ Visit ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠WWW.Roxanaakhbari.com ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠to access my other free coaching resources or to book a free consultation call to explore how we can work together.

    EP 34 - Recognizing Our Power in Times of Terror #2

    This is part two of my 2-part mini-series on practicing thought work in times of state-sanctioned terror. Last week, I unpacked the pattern of "reactive rigidity" or the urge to respond to disagreement within our communities with rigid binaries that reproduce harm, especially against the most vulnerable among us. This week, I explore how some of us are already redirecting this reactive energy into practices that build sustainable capacity for transformation — in ourselves and our communities. You’ll hear: Why reclaiming constructive power can be a supportive practice — whether you’ve felt unintentionally pulled toward using rigid binaries or targeted by them.How somatic power helps us notice and interrupt the fear-driven pull to echo the majorityHow intentional power frees us from intimidating binaries and external expectations.How relational power strengthens collective resilience through safe micro-spaces.

    EP 33 - Recognizing Our Power in Times of Terror #1

    This short episode is part one of a 2-part mini-series on what it means to practice thought work in times of state-sanctioned terror. As authoritarian regimes rise globally — and as Iran continues to face repression, executions, and silencing — many are asking: Is coaching even relevant right now? In part one, I share why I believe thought work becomes more essential, not less, in extreme conditions. I introduce a pattern I’ve been noticing within our communities as we resist corrupt regimes. I call it "reactive rigidity" and I unpack how it can create unnecessary suffering, especially for the most vulnerable among us. You’ll hear: Why coaching is not indulgent in times of crisis.What “reactive rigidity” is and why our nervous systems crave it right now.How reactive rigidity backfires by reproducing harm in our communities.A simple practice to invite you to pause & note where your thought patterns might reflect reactive rigidity.
