The Can't Magnets
The Life You're Made For with Dr. Heather Penny
11/03/22 • 50 min
This week I fly solo to talk about the things that wither and disengage our courage. In my experience – personally and with clients – there are seven forces that create a negative invisible pull. I call these Can’t Magnets. They are...
- Cynicism
- Control
- Closed-mindedness
- Cold-heartedness
- Complaining
- Condemning
- Criticizing
Listen in to hear what you can replace these "can't" magnets with and step into courage.

Gaining Clarity Through Pain with Joe Kaufman
The Life You're Made For with Dr. Heather Penny
05/05/22 • 46 min
What can we learn from pain? Many times the pain we endure comes from loss. This week, I sit down with my friend Joe Kaufman again to discuss how loss and pain can actually help us gain clarity. If we allow it, pain can help us live fuller lives because we come to terms with the reality that we have to (and we GET to) choose who we want to be and what we want to do with our time...while we still have it! Joe is a fount of wisdom and empathy, and this was such an encouraging conversation. Jump in!

On this week’s podcast l interview Scott Schimmel, author of the book Critical Foundations, about how we can help encourage young people to find a meaningful life. In this world of constant comparison, what does a meaningful life look like? So many young people are in a state of survival and this is often a mirror of the adults in their lives. How can we model a meaningful life so that the young people around us know what it looks like? The secret might be in sharing our successes and failures openly and honestly.

Do you carry a voice of shame from your past? This week I chat with Author and MFT Kimberly Miller about how she helps her clients heal from past wounds and find grace to move forward. So many parts of our inner-self come from false beliefs and negative voices that keep us stuck. Kimberly teaches us what it means to put boundaries on those voices and amplify the voices of kindness and grace. We also dive into our individual faith journeys and learning how we've been able to find God's voice in all of it. Whether you are a person of faith or not, I know you will get so much out of Kimberly's wisdom and insight.
