How One Man Broke a Lifelong Pattern of People Pleasing With Bradley Gabbert
dimanche 4 octobre 2026 • Durée 27:06
In this episode of The Soul Mirror Podcast, host Niharika talks with Bradley Gabbert about what happens when another person's perspective shows us a pattern we have been living inside of for decades without ever naming it. Bradley traces his own pattern of people pleasing and conflict avoidance back to a car accident at thirty months old that left him in a coma for two weeks and unable to speak for about a year afterward, and describes how the safety habits he built to survive that recovery quietly shaped fifty or sixty years of making himself small in his most important relationships.
The conversation moves into the moment Bradley finally recognized passivity as the root issue, using a simple five whys exercise drawn from his engineering background, and into the breathing and yoga practice that helped him move it out of his body rather than just understand it intellectually. He and Niharika talk candidly about the difference between genuinely helpful feedback and other people's projections, why assertiveness is not the same as being loud or rude, and how community, not solo effort, carried him through the harder parts of the change.
About the Guest:
Bradley Gabbert is an engineer by background and the author of The Agreeable Child: A Yogic Journey From Tragedy to Triumph. His work traces how a childhood accident shaped decades of people pleasing and conflict avoidance, and the breathing, yoga, and self-reflection practices that helped him move from passivity toward assertiveness and self-acceptance.
Key Takeaways:
A lifelong pattern of people pleasing or conflict avoidance can be traced back to a single early experience, in Bradley's case a childhood accident that taught him not to "rock the boat."
Other people's feedback, even when it stings in the moment, can be one of the only ways to see a blind spot that has shaped decades of behavior without ever being named.
A simple five whys exercise, asking why repeatedly until the root cause surfaces, can help identify the real issue underneath a recurring relationship conflict.
Breathwork, including a 4-7-8 pattern, can bring up and release stored emotion in a way that talking alone often cannot, and can be a doorway into a broader practice like yoga.

Looking Inward Without Judgment: Breaking Old Patterns with Liz Coleman
samedi 26 septembre 2026 • Durée 19:06
Why do we keep reacting in ways we promised ourselves we wouldn't? This episode of The Soul Mirror Podcast is for anyone who looks put-together on the outside but feels tired, pressured, or out of step on the inside.
Transformational life coach Liz Coleman shares how noticing, rather than fixing, helps old patterns loosen, why a regulated nervous system gives you room to choose, and how changing your self-talk can soften the pressure.
About the Guest:
Liz Coleman is a transformational life coach who spent 26 years in the nonprofit world, including as a Chief Development Officer, before burnout led her to create her own coaching program. She works mostly with women.
Key Takeaways:
Nothing is wrong with you. Your patterns reflect what you learned, not who you are.
Name a feeling and let it be. Resisting emotions tends to make them stronger.
Many patterns are inherited beliefs about how to be accepted. Ask where yours came from.
A few minutes of breathing, walking, or meditation daily helps you pause instead of snap.
Swap "I have to" for "I get to." A small language shift can ease the pressure.

[02:00] From Burnout to Coaching - Liz's 26 years in nonprofits and the search for a better way
[03:30] Nothing to Fix - letting feelings be instead of fighting them

Accountability, Grace and Ego with Doc Harmony
mercredi 23 septembre 2026 • Durée 33:40
Why do we keep repeating the patterns we most want to change? This episode of The Soul Mirror Podcast is for anyone ready to look inward honestly, without shame or the pressure to fix everything.
Doc Harmony shares how accountability, vulnerability, and grace quiet the ego, why metanoia means a change of mind rather than punishment, and how everyday kindness and faith can help you meet your true self.
About the Guest:
Doc Harmony is the founder of My HEAL Shop, based in Georgia, USA. She works with clients from many walks of life, draws on more than 30 years in recovery, and speaks from a faith-centred perspective on self-awareness and service.
Key Takeaways:
Owning a mistake quickly ends the loop. Excuses keep it repeating.
Metanoia means transforming how you think, not punishing yourself.
Vulnerability conquers ego, which either beats you up or pushes you into poor choices.
Not every disagreement needs a defence. Letting go of being right protects relationships.
When you slip into an old pattern, forgive yourself, dust off, and recommit.
[00:00] The Mirror Beneath the Surface - an invitation to look inward honestly
[02:30] What the Soul Mirror Really Means - looking within, not just at our reflection
[06:00] Why We Avoid Our Own Patterns - ego, excuses, and the freedom of metanoia

The Soul Mirror: Silvia Rizzo on Reflection, Structure, and Growth
mercredi 16 septembre 2026 • Durée 20:03
What if the people who trigger us most are simply showing us where we still need to grow? The host talks with Grand Prix dressage rider and life coach Silvia Rizzo about why knowing your own values and principles matters more than chasing temporary motivation.
Silvia shares why she separates facts from emotions before making a decision, the difference between reacting from ego-protection and responding by learning from a mistake, and why paying attention to the people around you matters even when you're busy.
About the Guest:
Silvia Rizzo is an Italian Grand Prix dressage rider and certified life coach, and founder of Hof Marabunta. She runs a motivational blog sharing reflections on resilience, structure, and self-awareness drawn from her career in competitive sport.

Separate the facts of a situation from your emotions before making an important decision.
Pressure doesn't create character, it reveals the structure and values you already have.
A mistake is information, not failure, as long as you learn from it.
Reacting from ego protection looks like blame, responding looks like learning and resetting.
Staying aware of the people around you, even when busy, is still a choice.

The Soul Mirror: Sandy and Derek on Reflection and Growth
mercredi 16 septembre 2026 • Durée 25:31
What if the people who trigger you most are showing you something about yourself? Host Shreya talks with Sandy and Derek of Anamlíniú about the biggest misconception people carry about the soul mirror, and why the journey isn't always unicorns and rainbows.
Sandy and Derek share why pausing before reacting is a muscle you build over time, how repeated patterns often trace back to unresolved trauma, and why healing tends to happen layer by layer rather than all at once.
About the Guests:
Sandy and Derek are the founders of Anamlíniú, an Irish spiritual wellness platform offering channeling, energy healing, sound healing, and meditation. Their work is rooted in their own personal journeys of healing and self-discovery.

Repeating patterns often trace back to past experiences the nervous system never fully resolved.
You're only responsible for your own reactions, not for fixing someone else's patterns.
Healing tends to happen layer by layer, not in one single breakthrough.

Looking Inward Without Judgment: Karen Bentley on The Soul Mirror Podcast
dimanche 13 septembre 2026 • Durée 21:02
What if looking inward isn't about doing more, but doing less? Host Ria talks with author Karen Bentley about what she calls the ego robot, the automatic patterns that run our lives until pressure reveals them.
Karen shares why life energy quietly drains away through what she calls harmfulness, a personal story about overriding jealousy with a daily decision to choose love, and why real change comes from small, repeated choices rather than big effort.
About the Guest:
Karen Bentley is an author of more than 17 books and the creator of the Warrior Strong training program, which teaches self-mastery, self-love, and self-care through three progressive levels.
Key Takeaways:
Looking inward often means doing less, not adding more journaling or affirmations.
The ego runs on autopilot until pressure, like rejection or disappointment, reveals it.
Harmfulness, like vengeful words or tone, quietly drains your life energy over time.
Real change usually starts with one clear decision, repeated consistently, not a big leap.
Hearing yourself on a recording can reveal a tone you didn't know you had.

Reflecting on Inner Patterns: Steve Barton on The Soul Mirror Podcast
samedi 12 septembre 2026 • Durée 24:14
What if the people and moments that frustrate you the most are the clearest mirror you have? Host Niharika talks with mindset coach Steve Barton about noticing the patterns we usually look past, and why judgment softens most when curiosity takes its place.
Steve shares why self-criticism is a learned habit rather than a requirement, a weather metaphor for moving through fear, doubt, guilt, and shame, and why radical self-acceptance comes before any real change.
About the Guest
Steve Barton is a mindset coach and creator of The Game of Ten, a process for building awareness and setting clear boundaries. He is the co-author, with his son Spencer, of The Father, the Son, and the Aha Moment.
Key Takeaways
Self-criticism is something we learned, not something we're required to keep doing.
Curiosity, asking why instead of judging, defuses a reaction faster than self-judgment does.
Radical self-acceptance of who you are right now comes before any lasting change.
Everyday frustrations are often the clearest mirror, if you're willing to look at them.
Feeding yourself affirmations regularly is the practical antidote to years of self-criticism.

Ali Christos on Self-Reflection and Reclaiming Your Power
mercredi 9 septembre 2026 • Durée 25:46
What if the people who trigger you aren't judging you, but showing you something? Host Yusuf talks with quantum hypnosis practitioner Ali Christos about the soul mirror, and why self-reflection should never become self-blame.

The Life You Want May Be Hidden Behind Your Programming | Dr. Joseph Drolshagen
dimanche 6 septembre 2026 • Durée 32:07
We spend so much time searching outside ourselves for answers. But what happens when the patterns keeping us stuck are operating much closer to home?
In this episode of The Soul Mirror, Navya sits down with Dr. Joseph Drolshagen for a conversation about honest self-reflection, subconscious patterns, personal vision and the gap between knowing what we want and consistently acting toward it.
Joseph describes the subconscious through his coaching framework as a kind of internal “motherboard” containing learned patterns, beliefs and interpretations. He argues that these patterns can influence how we perceive opportunities, relationships and ourselves.
A central practice in the conversation is vision. Joseph suggests getting specific about the life you genuinely want and then noticing where you immediately begin negotiating yourself downward. Those moments of settling, hesitation or self-doubt can become clues to beliefs worth examining.
The conversation also explores victimhood, teachability, asking for help and the beginner mindset. Rather than endlessly digging through everything that went wrong in the past, Joseph focuses on two questions: Where are you now? And where do you want to be?
Ultimately, this conversation is about learning to look at your reflection without immediately condemning what you see.
About Dr. Joseph Drolshagen:
Dr. Joseph Drolshagen is a business and mindset coach, author, speaker and founder of IFGT Coaching & Consulting. He developed the SMT Method™ (Subconscious Mindset Training™), his coaching framework centered on subconscious patterns, behavior, leadership and growth. His official biography describes a 28-year corporate career that included rising to VP of Sales.
His current work focuses on entrepreneurs, business owners, sales professionals and people seeking personal or professional growth.
Key Takeaways:
Self-reflection can begin with curiosity rather than criticism.
Ask whether a pattern is working for you or against you.

Assertiveness is not the same as being loud or rude. For Bradley, it meant getting clear on what he actually wanted for himself and voicing it, starting with a simple personal vow.
Healing this kind of pattern was not a solo project. Community, first in a therapist's office, later in a yoga studio, played a real role in sustaining the change.
