Join me and Dr. Tometich for a therapy session...no, but really - in this episode, we switch things up! My friend and Clinical Psychology PhD, Dr. Danielle Tometich, takes the reins on the episode and guides me (and YOU) through a self-compassion therapy session. We cover reframing thoughts + negative self-talk, emotion regulation, how to discover your core values, and inner child work! Dr. Tometich also gives a guided, self-love meditation on the episode and provides some journal prompts to help us speak kinder to ourselves. Listener discretion is advised due to adult language.

“Sapiens” Book Review with Celeste Davis

Oh, hi! I'm Charisse, a divorced Mormon apostate who sells beer for a living. Is it cliché to leave a high-demand religion and then start a podcast to process the experience? Probably. Am I still doing it? Hellll yeah.  This is a podcast where we confront old narratives and attempt to rectify previous identities. We think critically, we ask the hard questions, and we share stories of when our lives completely fell apart + how we're putting them back together. We do this all whilst drinking Blasphemous Beverages (which is any beverage that my former Mormon self would have found incredibly offensive and sinful). Season 1 is heavily focused on my own faith deconstruction journey, as well as others' journeys. It's when I found my podcasting legs, so to speak. Season 2is focused on confronting those pesky, old narratives &amp; re-writing unhelpful stories that we tell ourselves. Season 3 is philosophical, where we tackle some biiiiiig, scary questions about life and existence.  It's about getting existential (see what I did there?) and admitting to ourselves that we don't know as much as we think we do.  Season 4 tackles life's messy experiences &amp; concepts - how they change us, what we can learn from them, and why they make life meaningful. Whether you listen to episodes in order or hop around, I'm glad to have you here. Stay rad, Charisse Follow and Support The Show: https://linktr.ee/theexistenti...
