    389. Beef Up Your Intuition “Muscle” | Unlock Your Power with Happy Ali

    What if you could tap into a deeper, intuitive understanding of yourself and the world? That’s exactly what Happy Ali, author of The Intuition Bible: How and When to Tap Into Your Inner Wisdom, teaches us. A master NLP practitioner and clinical hypnotherapist, Happy’s journey began with an extraordinary life event—a self-induced near-death experience that changed his perspective forever. Emerging from despair with newfound clarity, he legally adopted the name Happy to reflect his commitment to joy and positivity. Happy’s story is a testament to the power of intuition and perspective. His journey has not been without hardship—losing a son at a young age being one of his greatest challenges—but his ability to reframe and access inner wisdom has allowed him to thrive and help others. For Happy, the secret to happiness lies in perspective: “Life offers two pools—muddy or clear water—and the choice of where to swim is yours.” If you’re seeking practical ways to enhance your intuition, Happy suggests starting small. Try this: ask yourself a question with a clear “yes” or “no” answer and focus on the sensations in your body. Over time, you’ll learn to trust your inner compass. As Happy says, “Your intuition is like a whisper—it’s quiet but powerful, guiding you to a more fulfilling life.” The Biggest Helping: Today’s Most Important Takeaway Don't look at life as something fixed and don't look at yourself as something that's trapped in a box of your own judgment and other people's beliefs. There is so much more to this world and the only way to access the best version of you is to release these preconceived notions of who you think you are and who others are. Just play in this world, be more curious, bring back the child within you that didn't care about results and just played because there is so much more to this world. And you're never alone. There's always lots of, whether it's your subconscious or your spirit guides or God or angels, you always have eternal support and it only can be accessed when you open your mind up to it and allow that information to come through. Because life is hard enough to do it on your own. So let's not do it on our own. -- Thank you for joining us on The Daily Helping with Dr. Shuster.

    388. These Universal Laws will Change Your Life | Quantum Philosophy with Victoria Rader

    In this episode of The Daily Helping, host Dr. Richard Shuster sits down with Dr. Victoria Rader, a renowned possibility coach and founder of YU2Shine, whose pioneering work in quantum personal development is transforming lives worldwide. With her expertise in blending quantum techniques and spiritual wisdom, Victoria empowers individuals to break free from limitations and embrace their fullest potential. She has authored best-selling books, developed transformative tools like the Empower-mE apps, and her teachings have been featured across prominent media outlets. Victoria shares her inspiring journey, starting with her early experiences of deep intuition and personal challenges growing up in the Soviet Union, which led her to a profound understanding of internal freedom. From her “quantum pioneer” perspective, Victoria explains how quantum science opens doors to infinite possibilities and sheds light on the “law of receiving and giving.” This revolutionary law challenges conventional wisdom on abundance by emphasizing that genuine prosperity flows when we first receive fully, allowing us to give unconditionally. This conversation dives deep into how self-sabotage and hidden beliefs can limit us, and Victoria offers actionable insights for breaking these patterns. She highlights the importance of embracing our unique differences and provides a free resource on overcoming self-sabotaging behaviors to help listeners take meaningful steps toward a life of purpose and abundance. The Biggest Helping: Today’s Most Important Takeaway If this infinite universe had a better way to fill in the place and time that you currently occupy, it would have done so. But it has not. So you, as you are, are an exact, intricate, beautiful, powerful, magnificent piece of the puzzle. Remember that and start releasing everything that's unworthy of that. -- Thank you for joining us on The Daily Helping with Dr. Shuster.

    387. Combat Veteran Tells the Truth about Empathy | Crisis Response with Joe Smarro

    In this powerful Veterans Day episode of The Daily Helping, Dr. Richard Shuster speaks with Marine combat veteran and mental health advocate Joe Smarro. Joe, a former police officer and crisis intervention leader, shares his deeply personal journey from a troubled childhood to military service and ultimately to his work as the CEO of SolutionPoint+, where he focuses on eradicating suicide among first responders. Joe opens up about his past struggles with trauma and his mission to bring empathy and compassion into policing. His story, featured in the Emmy-winning documentary Ernie and Joe: Crisis Cops, underscores the importance of connection over authority when serving communities. Joe shares his unique "connection before correction" approach and discusses how empathy can transform crisis response, ultimately helping both first responders and the communities they serve. The Biggest Helping: Today’s Most Important Takeaway Not only are you loved– and I know that's like, oh, you just say that– man, woman, it doesn't matter to me. When we can understand that love is just like empathy, it's our superpower. I love you all. I love you, Dr. Richard, I just met you. Why? Because you're a person on your journey, trying to do good for other people and that's worthy and deserving. And I just wish all people would understand that you deserve to be loved, regardless of the thoughts you've had, the choices you've made, the mistakes you've made, the people you've hurt, the wrong you've done, regardless of all of it, you deserve to be loved. And you have to start by accepting that and acknowledging that and understanding that for yourself. Because when you accept your own truth of “I am worthy and I am lovable,” it makes it so much easier to connect with other people and love them as well.  -- Thank you for joining us on The Daily Helping with Dr. Shuster.

    386. What the Media Isn’t Telling You about Ukraine | Frontline Reporting with Chris Herlinger

    In this episode of The Daily Helping, Dr. Richard Shuster sits down with award-winning journalist and international correspondent Chris Herlinger, who shares powerful stories of his humanitarian reporting, particularly from his recent coverage of Ukraine. Chris, a correspondent for Global Sisters Report and a long-time journalist on humanitarian efforts, discusses his new book, Solidarity and Mercy, which sheds light on the resilience and dignity of those caught in conflict, especially through the work of Catholic sisters in war zones. From covering global conflicts to witnessing the faith-based efforts of religious communities, Chris brings a unique perspective to how humanitarian workers are affirming the dignity and humanity of those in need. Whether you're religious or not, the conversation is deeply moving, exploring not only the struggles of war but also the small, compassionate acts that restore hope. The Biggest Helping: Today’s Most Important Takeaway The war in Ukraine is a great tragedy. I mean any war is tragic, I think, but certainly this is particularly tragic because I don't think it was at all necessary and not justified. You know, this is an imperialist land grab on the part of Russia. I think something that Russia has been committed to is to sort of reimpose a Russian reality on Ukraine. The Ukrainians are very, very nationalistic. They're very patriotic. It's just a tragedy all around.  And yet, and yet in the midst of this tragedy, there's been a global, this of course was more at the beginning of the war than it is right now, but there was a global response that I think was remarkable and helped Ukrainians get to safer places. And I think that kind of global commitment is not only necessary, but I think it says something very, very good about humanity and what humanity can do. I think the work of the sisters and the work of the church continues, and the church, whatever you may feel about organized religion, whatever you may feel about the Catholic church in particular– the Catholic Church is in the world, and in Ukraine, of course, it's a minority church. The Orthodox Church is the predominant church in Ukraine, but the Catholic Church is rooted throughout the world. I think the Catholic Church does help and affirm the dignity of people in these awful situations. I think that that's a remarkable story.  And as I said earlier, it goes back to thousands of years rooted in the gospel. I think that thread that binds the current day to the past and to the gospel story is really fascinating and moving and a beautiful thing, -- Thank you for joining us on The Daily Helping with Dr. Shuster.

    384. Feel, Heal, and Let That Sh*t Go with Rachel Kaplan

    Content warning: Suicide When Rachel Kaplan was 14 years old, her first true love ended his life. Ever since then, she has pursued how to emotionally heal. Now, she has combined what she learned in a book, “Feel, Heal, and Let That Sh*t Go.” Rachel joins us on the show today. Rachel’s book is deeply based in research and theory, but her explanations are clear enough that a child could understand. She calls her approach “emotional potty training,” where, just like poop, we need to let emotions move through our bodies and then exit in a healthy way. We talk about numbing emotions, core wounds, sensitivity, and shame. Rachel has an incredible knack for weaving together science, spirituality, and plain-speaking. Don’t miss this episode! The Biggest Helping: Today’s Most Important Takeaway You have the power within you. Like you don't necessarily even need a therapist. What you need is to cultivate this relationship between these parts of you and that it's really about being willing to turn toward the pain that you're carrying and just let yourself have it, let yourself clear it. And that is the single most important / only way to feel better is to feel how you actually feel. -- Thank you for joining us on The Daily Helping with Dr. Shuster.
