Ep 195: IG LIVE - Reclaiming the Untamed, Messy Parts of Ourselves

12/06/23 • 45 min

Cheaper Than Therapy with Vanessa and Dené

In this episode of Cheaper than Therapy the Podcast, we sat down for an IG LIVE to talk about reclaiming the feminine aspects within ourselves, as well as why this is the basis of so much of the relational work that we feel so strongly about as therapists.

🌟 Some Big Takeaways from this Episode:

Alone Not Lonely: What to do when you know your longing to be in a relationship is rooted in feelings of loneliness
Disconnected Partnership: How to navigate whether to stay in a relationship or go when a partner is regularly numbing with weed and social media
Support in Relationships: Why it’s a natural desire to be in a relationship with a partner who chooses your side and still has your back whenever a conflict arises
Shadow Work and Healing: What it looks like to accept and integrate the shadow parts of ourselves and throw away the notion that we will ever be fully “healed”

If you’re called to go deeper into your practice of self understanding and relationships we are gathering for an immersive long weekend in Malibu, CA January 18-21. Come join us in exploring the origin points of the limiting beliefs that may be holding you back, understanding how to begin to step onto the path of trusting ourselves, crafting a vision of what you want your life to look like and practices that can support you in being the creator of this reality.

Therapeutic workshops, delicious home cooked meals, and a group of like minded seekers. The perfect way to start off 2024.

We hope to see you at Reclaiming the Sovereign Feminine.

Ep 194: Live Coaching Session - How Much Sharing is Too Much?

In this episode of Cheaper than Therapy, we sit down with “Veronica” to discuss how much sharing is too much in friendships and romantic relationships, especially in the early stages. How do you bond and create authentic connections through vulnerability when your past feels like it’s too heavy for others?

If you’re interested in joining us for a coaching session, click here.

🌟 What You’ll Gain from this Episode:

You Are Not What’s Happened to You: It’s easy to fall into the mindset that the things that have happened to you mean something about you and what it means to have a relationship with you, but you have the power to decide who is safe enough to see the vulnerability in your heart and what authenticity looks like for yourself
We Attract What We Believe to be True: Remember that you attract into your life what you put out, so having that radical self-acceptance and unconditional love for your full Self will attract others with the same energetic capacity to hold space for the authentic you
Fear is not Vulnerability: Be sure you’re motivated by true, authentic, radical self-acceptance, rather than moving from a place of fear where your ego is working overtime to defend you, inadvertently proving your fears to be true by pushing away authentic connections

Ep 196: Finding Safety in Spirituality After Religious Trauma with Dr. Laura Anderson, PhD.

Dr. Laura Anderson, PhD. is a psychotherapist, trauma resolution coach and consultant, writer and educator specializing in complex and developmental trauma, dynamics of power and control and religious trauma. In this episode of Cheaper than Therapy the Podcast, we sat down with Dr. Anderson to discuss all things spirituality and religious trauma, and about her book “When Religion Hurts You.”

🌟 What You’ll Gain from this Episode:

Religion vs Spirituality: Addressing the role of religion and/or religious trauma in your upbringing is a personal spiritual journey that doesn’t have to create anti-religious rhetoric in your life, but helps find a way to feed your soul in a safe and fulfilling way
Patriarchy within The Church: Recognizing that at the root of most religions is the same intention and message, and the patriarchy’s need for control, power, and certainty are what create religious trauma, and that finding safety within religion and spirituality is possible
Finding Internal Safety: A lot of the work done to heal from religious trauma includes learning how to find safety within yourself for the first time, rather than looking to an external source like your parents or The Church
