Today Dr. Susan tackles the psychological effects of "AGING" with Psychotherapist Dana Skaggs.
Dana has been in private practise for 14 years specializing in anxiety and adjustment issues along with Trauma work. Dana has been called the "Boundaries Queen" because she is very adept at helping people understand how their lack of healthy boundaries are contributing to their problems.
Dana also has a popular podcast entitled Phoenix and Flame which is about pushing through and transforming even when you feel like a pile of ash.
We are all too familiar with the physical issues as we advance in years- especially after menopause. But, today we are tackling deeper topics-
-How do we accept aging in a youth oriented society
-Who are we looking at in the mirror- "that can't be me! I still feel 25!"
-The negative self talk
-Loss of 'sexuality" that women feel as they age
and much much more...
Dana is articulate, sassy and lots of fun!! This is a lively, honest conversation you will all enjoy and relate to!!

"Like a weed, perfectionism grows into an overpowering force that steals nutrients from your source, damaging it's vibrancy. Even if you pull up the weeds by the roots, they will return unless you address the cause of why the weeds grew"
These are the words of Dr. Traci Nicole Smith, who is a Conscious Driven Living Coach, empowering others to embody joy through intentionality. To live purposefully, feel passionately and align authentically!
Dr. Susan and Traci discuss Perfectionism- how it can develop
- characteristics of a Perfectionist
- some simple tools to keep it under control
The key to Perfectionism is working with the strengths of this" syndrome" while not allowing it to rule your life- for example: never being satisfied
: not taking risks or trying new things due to a fear of failure
:self sabotage
: lack of self acceptance
to name a few.
"Perfectionism is internalized oppression". Gloria Steinem
