About this listen
While in the midst of addictive behaviors, it can be easy to define ourselves by the worst things we’ve done. When moving away from addictive behaviors, it can be almost seductive to tell ourselves how unworthy and defective we are because of all the people we have hurt, including ourselves. The good news is that we have the power to decide who we are and what will become of our lives—not in spite of what we’ve been through, but because of what we’ve been through. We get to choose how to value all parts of our stories.
As a teacher and guide, Dr. Adam Schilling relies on his professional experience as a coach of positive psychology, relationships, and addiction treatment to invite those battling addiction to use their experiences as a doorway to understanding the inherent goodness that lives within. As he presents various approaches to interacting with aspects of the mind and body, Dr. Schilling offers information and tools, specifically related to the voices in one’s own head, to cultivate a sense of awareness, acceptance, and even appreciation for the powerful process of uncovering what can be as opposed to recovering what was. By learning these skills, identifying negative factors driving addictive behaviors, and thinking and feeling through intentional lenses, new positive personal story lines can be developed and optimistic futures can be brightly forged. Through sharing practical wisdom, real-life stories, and positive perspectives, Be Your Advocate is an invitation to this well-lit path.

For half a century, we have been trained to believe that our right brain hemisphere is our emotional brain, while our left brain houses our rational thinking. Now neuroscience shows that it's not that simple: In fact, our emotional limbic tissue is evenly divided between our two hemispheres. Consequently, each hemisphere has both an emotional brain and a thinking brain. In this groundbreaking new book, Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor presents these four distinct modules of cells as four characters that make up who we are.

Empathy is something we all feel at one time or another in our lives. It is a necessary human experience and the ability to have a compassionate sense of feeling for another person. You may not have considered yourself an empath before, because our culture hasn't considered it for a long time. It's a valid diagnosis for a person and empaths often end up being accused of being overly sensitive, sometimes sick or depressed, anti-social, and reclusive. If you think that you may be an empath and want to find out how to help you embrace your gift, then don't look any further.

Success in work, love, and life depends on developing habits that activate the powerful prefrontal cortex when we need it most. Unfortunately, under stress, the human brain tends to revert to emotional habits we forged in toddlerhood: blame, denial, avoidance, reacting to a jerk like a jerk, and turning our connections into cold shoulders - or worse. In Soar Above, renowned relationship expert Dr. Steven Stosny offers a groundbreaking formula for building new, pressure-resistant habits.

Story
If you were raised to believe that painful emotions are a sign of weakness, or if being vulnerable has always made you feel unsafe, then you may have survived by creating a perfect-looking life - a life where you appear to be successful, engaged, and always there for others. The problem? You're filled with self-criticism and shame, and you can't allow yourself to express fear, anger, loss, or grief. You recognize something is wrong, but you're not sure what exactly - only that you feel trapped and alone. If this sounds like you, you may have perfectly hidden depression (PHD).
