Trading In Midlife Shame and Guilt for Emotional Freedom

Wednesday, August 14, 2024 • Duration 29:24

We've heard for years from Brene Brown, "We desperately don't want to talk about shame, and we're not willing to talk about it. Yet, the only way to resolve shame is to talk about it." So we are.
Join us for this truthful, maybe gut-wrenching talk about shame and guilt and midlife, as Cam and Amelia guide you through these problematic emotions. But remember, these should be emotions, instead of getting stuck as a mood.

00:00 Inquiring about the purpose of guilt and shame.
05:17 Creating unnecessary boundaries based on false perceptions.
09:10 Caring for aging parents while setting boundaries.
13:16 Differentiate between shame and guilt for lasting change.
15:15 Labels are like masks, connecting but not defining.
19:48 Honesty, vulnerability, and accepting inevitable relationship conflicts.
21:26 Seeking authenticity, empathy, and grace with others.

27:30 Overcoming fear leads to confidence and resilience.

In this episode, you'll hear:

Authenticity Through Alignment: Assess your actions and values by using your calendar, checkbook, or credit card statement as concrete data points for self-accounting. Aligning actions with values can lead to greater authenticity and self-awareness.
Liberating From Labels: Move away from shame as a tool for change and from labeling. Shedding negative self-identifications can lead to emotional freedom and deeper connections with others.
Vulnerability Breeds Connection: Embrace vulnerability as a path to love, belonging, joy, and innovation. Being honest with oneself and opening up to trusted others can lead to deeper connections and personal growth.

Is this Sabotaging Your Health? Sugar & the "Bliss Point" of Food:

Season 2 · Episode 77

Wednesday, November 23, 2022 • Duration 29:00

What is the "Bliss Point"? It sounds awesome, doesn't it? How can something described as blissful be so sinister?

You will be shocked to know that food manufacturers have spent millions of dollars to discover the exact proportions of sugar, fat and salt to hook you like a big fish. The bliss point is the exact point at which you eat one bite and then a million more. Gone are the days of food that is satisfying and wholesome. Welcome to the days of manipulation, obesity and BIG money.

It is sad that the American food system has come to this. If it comes in a package, you are assured to find an ingredient ending in -ose, which is a synonym for SUGAR. It's hidden in everything as: dextrose, maltose, fructose, glucose, malt syrup and corn syrup. You MUST read labels.

This episode isn't all negativity. In addition to giving you the "skinny" on sugar, we also give you tips on how to overcome this addiction. That's right; I said addiction. This isn't about willpower. It's about overcoming the Bliss Point that has been engineered to make you crave MORE.

Seed Oils & Your Health

Season 2 · Episode 75

Wednesday, November 9, 2022 • Duration 26:23

Hey Midlife Mommas! We hope you are doing well and thriving.

This episode of the Midlife Mommas podcast talks about seed oils and the nasty little secrets of the processed food industry. These oils, such as sunflower, safflower, canola, soybean, and grapeseed, are cheap and plentiful and carry a host of health concerns. We challenge you to read product labels. The amount of products that contain this inflammatory ingredient is shocking.
We take a deep dive into the health concerns that these oils introduce; we give you tips on how to avoid them, and talk about how to "get yourself back on-track" when you've had a period of poor eating. But let's be honest...and real. We are NOT saying that avoiding processed foods completely is reasonable. We all like to eat out occasionally, and we all like the crunch of a good chip every now and again. The story is balance. We want to help you create a beautiful life full of foods that are alive and colorful while still enjoying the occasional "treat."

It's Menopause Awareness Month!

This week we are telling our stories. Who doesn't love a good story??
We reinforce the fact that every woman's menopause journey is different. We give you a little taste of what our journeys were like. We each experienced the onset of menopause by different mechanisms and consequently, had some different symptoms.

While our many of our solutions are the same or similar, we respect that there are many "solutions" to menopause symptoms. We hope you have enjoyed all of our advice we have given you over previous episodes. Menopause can be scary, but we got you!
