Mindful Millionaire with Leisa Peterson Leisa Peterson

I am pleased to be interviewing Amye Cole, a licensed marriage and family therapist specializing in EMDR therapy. Today, we're discussing EMDR and how it helps with trauma and PTSD.
EMDR therapy offers hope for individuals struggling with the lasting impact of traumatic experiences. By processing these memories and moving towards self-compassion and resilience, individuals can experience improved emotional well-being and deeper connections in their relationships.
We're exploring:
What is EMDR? EMDR stands for Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing. It is a type of therapy that helps individuals process and heal from traumatic experiences or distressing memories. How does EMDR work? EMDR involves bilateral stimulation (such as eye movements or tapping) while the individual focuses on a distressing memory. This process helps the brain reprocess the memory, moving it from a stuck, emotionally-charged state to a more adaptive, positive state. Is EMDR right for your situation? EMDR can be beneficial for individuals who have experienced traumatic events or have distressing memories that continue to impact their daily lives. Amye explains the importance of assessing an individual's "window of tolerance" before beginning EMDR therapy to ensure they can safely process the memory. How to get the most from EMDR therapy? Amye discusses the different formats of EMDR therapy, including weekly sessions and intensive programs. She also emphasizes the importance of finding a therapist with whom you feel safe and connected. Amye shares examples of how this incredible tool helps her clients change their lives for the better, offering hope to those struggling with the lasting impact of trauma. If you or someone you know is dealing with traumatic experiences, EMDR therapy may be a valuable path to healing and resilience.

Ben shares the journey behind writing his book "The Way Home" after going through a difficult personal period. He discusses the calling he feels to help others "wake up" and live fuller lives, even as he was not tending to his own pain. The conversation explores the hero's journey framework and how Ben weaves his own experience into that, making it relatable for those who feel a sense of "losing their heart" or not living to their full potential. There's an earnestness and gentleness as he explains the small awakenings along the way. It's a thoughtful dialogue around translating mystical experiences into something shareable with others through storytelling, and living it first before trying to tell everyone. Ben offers wisdom for discerning when and with whom to open up. Ultimately it's a conversation of hope - that there are always new journeys ahead when we sense there is "something more" calling to us from within. Even amidst the ordinariness, we can take "the next right step" of listening to that quiet voice urging us forward.
