    Our Cultural Drama Addiction and The Power of Completing The Stress Response with Dr. Scott Lyons

    In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Scott Lyons, a holistic psychologist, author, and body-based trauma expert, to discuss why we are so drawn to drama as a culture and how fully honoring our stress responses can help us better adapt to stress. Dr. Lyons explains what he defines as “drama,” how trauma often takes us away from ourselves and others, and how overstimulation has become the cultural norm. He also talks about how media is designed to keep our attention away from ourselves, why we are so drawn to reality TV, and why stress is a social glue that bonds us. Finally, he shares how most of us aren’t completing our stress cycles, how he checks in with his nervous system during a stressful event, and how he gets out of his cortisol stimulus and brings himself back to center. Key Takeaway / Points:How Dr. Lyons defines “drama”How trauma takes us away from ourselves and othersOn the cultural norm of overstimulationOn the connection between seeking stillness and feeling safeHow media is designed to keep our attention away from ourselvesWhy are we so drawn to reality TV?How gossip bonds people and why stress is a social glueOn the numbing effects of cortisolOn the addictive rollercoaster of toxic relationshipsWhy most of us aren’t completing our stress responsesThe power of physically “shaking it out” after stressHow Dr. Lyons fills his cup and calms his nervous system Find Dr. Scott Lyons’ book, “Addicted to Drama,” here This episode may contain paid endorsements and advertisements for products and services.

    Reflecting on One Year as a Mom of Two

    In this solo episode, I share the exciting news that I’ve developed a “Quiet Your Mind and Busy Your Hands” journal and adult coloring affirmation book! I discuss how this project came together and how it implements some of the top elements that have fundamentally shifted my mental health. I also reflect on the past year with two children and how we’ve been trying to embrace the chaos instead of resisting it. I discuss my son’s birth a year ago and the initial overwhelm that came with juggling two kids, the guilt I felt over not being able to attend to both at once, and the emotional shift that happened during the 7-9 month postpartum mark. I also share how my kids’ relationship with each other has evolved over the past year, why I just don’t love the newborn phase, why the mom I was for my firstborn’s year one is vastly different from the mom I am today, and more. Key Takeaway / Points:On developing the “Quiet Your Mind and Busy Your Hands” journal and adult coloring affirmationsHow I prioritize my mental healthHow affirmations have fundamentally shifted my mindsetOn resisting the stress of kid’s birthdays and letting yourself have fun in the chaosReflecting on my son’s birth a year ago and the initial overwhelm with two kidsOn the guilt over not being able to attend to both children at onceOn the shift that occurred during the 7-9 month mark postpartumHow my kids’ relationship has evolved over the past yearOn being honest about not loving the newborn phaseOn how different the first year of my kids’ lives wereOn the mom I was for my firstborn’s year one vs. the mom I am todayOn my relationship with my husband with two kids vs. one Buy the Quiet Your Mind Journal and Adult Affirmation Coloring Book here Listen to Episode 145: “Breaking the ‘Manic Mom’ Mold” episode here This episode may contain paid endorsements and advertisements for products and services.

    Driving the Change for Banning Assault Weapons with Kitty Brandtner, founder and co-president of March Fourth

    In this episode, I sit down with Kitty Brandtner, founder and co-president of March Fourth, to discuss the organization’s push for gun reform in the U.S. and why federally banning assault weapons is their singular goal. Kitty shares the string of events that led her to founding March Fourth, why radical gun reform viewpoints aren’t moving the needle forward, and why a federal assault weapons ban is the simplest and most effective path. She explains the history of assault weapons bans in the U.S., how we arrived at our current mass shooting epidemic, and how the mental health impact from gun violence has a ripple effect throughout a community. We also talk about bringing children up in the era of lockdown drills, holding onto hope and the recent progress that March Fourth has made, actionable items we can all take to help March Fourth’s initiative, and more.

    Motherhood is a Communal Act with Cat and Nat

    In this episode, I sit down with Cat and Nat – podcast hosts, co-authors, and best friends – to talk about blending families and what it’s like raising seven kids between the two of them and their spouses. We discuss how they came to such an integrated way of living and why non-judgment made it all possible, how our culture isn’t set up for communal support, and why it truly takes a village to raise children. They share the most exciting part about parenting teenagers versus the hardest part, how they navigate social media with teens, and why they’re developing a course on parenting and social media. Finally, they talk about the advice they’d give their younger selves with young children, why we often forget to embrace who we are as mothers and put so much pressure on ourselves to change, and how they do (or don’t) maintain sex lives with kids in the house. Key Takeaway / Points:How they’ve blended their families and why non-judgment made it possibleHow our culture isn’t set up for communal supportWhy it takes a village to raise kidsOn the most exciting part about parenting teenagersOn the hardest part about parenting teenagersOn navigating social media with teensOn tracking your kids’ locations and which app they useOn the course they’re developing for parenting and social mediaOn advice for their younger selves with young childrenOn embracing who you are as a motherHow they fill their own cupsOn maintaining a sex life with kids in the house This episode may contain paid endorsements and advertisements for products and services.

    Things I Wish I Knew Before Having a Baby

    In this solo episode, I share what I wish I knew before having a baby, from never being able to have the “perfect” timeline for having kids; to how friendships and relationships might evolve once you become a parent. I talk about the intensity of having your priorities completely shift to another person and away from yourself, why it’s so important to find what makes you feel like “you,” and why giving yourself a window of transition time during your days, especially during postpartum, can be a lifesaver. I also discuss the unpredictability of what works one day with your child versus what might not work the next day, the confidence that comes from being a parent, how important choosing your village is — from your partner, to your friendships — aand more. Key Takeaway / Points:On never having the perfect timelineOn your priorities shifting away from yourselfOn finding what makes you feel like yourselfGiving yourself a window of time to transition into different parts of your dayOn the energy it takes to feed another personThe unpredictability of what works one day vs. what doesn’t the nextOn the joy of watching your child experience the worldOn the confidence that comes from being a parentOn the judgment you experience as a momOn how important your village is, including your partnerHow your friendships might shift Listen to Ep 207: “What I Wish I Knew in my Twenties” here This episode may contain paid endorsements and advertisements for products and services.

    In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Sarah Oreck, co-founder and CEO of Mavida Health, to discuss the importance of maternal mental health care and, specifically, all things ADHD. Dr. Sarah shares what Mavida Health does and why they are filling a gap in the mental health space, why ADHD is a big part of their support platform, and how ADHD is often misunderstood, starting in childhood. She shares lifestyle techniques to help work with ADHD symptoms, why it seems like so many mothers are struggling with ADHD right now, and why it’s so important to know how your hormones affect both your physical and mental health. We talk about executive functioning and why it’s so important, how to communicate your mental health needs to your partner, and why task paralysis happens. Finally, she discusses the relationship between ADHD and overstimulation, and the struggle of being jealous of people we perceive as “making it work” better than we are.

    Action While Waiting and Building Strength in the Pauses with The Soto Method founder, Hilary Hoffman

    In this episode, I sit down with Hilary Hoffman, founder of The Soto Method, to discuss the journey behind developing her business, why intention is behind everything she does, and how she forged her path towards entrepreneurship. Hilary talks about the relentlessness of self-promotion and not knowing when your message is going to resonate with people, how she designed The Soto Method structure, and where the method transcends into a deeper meaning. She also shares how her former career in finance instilled strengths that serve her to this day, and how building intentional awareness and encouraging her coworkers to exercise inspired her to pursue The Soto Method. We discuss the value of creating a product in your own time and gathering constructive criticism, the inevitable sacrifices that come with building something, and why validation isn’t what we should be searching for. Finally, Hilary shares her current experience being pregnant with twins, her intention behind giving her children what they need versus what she needs, and why “action while waiting” has been instrumental in her journey in both business and pregnancy. Key Takeaway / Points:The goal behind The Soto Method and never knowing when your message is going to resonate with peopleOn designing the structure of The Soto Method and managing expectations in an exercise classWhat “SOTO” stands for and the intention behind the workoutsWhere the method transcends into a deeper meaning and why it breeds consistencyHilary’s former career in finance at Goldman Sachs and what it instilled in her as an entrepreneurOn building intentional awareness and supporting her coworkers to work outHow Hilary found her Venn diagram in the corporate world and exerciseOn various methods for creating a product, and how Hilary developed Soto before introducing it to the worldOn building something for yourself and making sacrificesWhy validation isn’t what we should be searching forOn being pregnant with twins and what Hilary is most excited forOn giving your children what they need, not what you needOn the concept of action while waiting Sign up for one free month of The Soto Method here, select “Monthly” and use code “CAMERONR” This episode may contain paid endorsements and advertisements for products and services.
