30 Your Wisdom Day, Ain’t It Fab!

August 8, 2020 By Shauna

WHAT THIS EPISODES ABOUT…

Hello to all my fabulous listeners. I’m Shauna Hoffman

Happy Birthday to all of the Leos out there! I’m one of them. Since my birthday is this week I thought I would have some fun talking about what it means to get older, whether you are in your 20’s or 80’s! Really, how do we do this in today’s society of “hot celebrity new looks” and “Cosmo’s perfect ten hairstyles for women over 30?” I may be a therapist speaking to all of you about how to be your genuine selves, how to love yourself for who you are! But I’m reading the same magazines as you are! And I am always being challenged by my own ego.

I love the idea that as we get older we are supposed to gain more wisdom. But even as a 17-year old I realized that wisdom is not gained easily. Often it’s gained from lessons given to us from an older wiser human, I could listen to my grandfather share his wisdom with me any day. But most often it is gained from surviving experiences in our lives. Surviving them, making sense of them, learning any and all lessons we can from them, and embracing them.

Ready? Let’s get started…

WHAT THIS EPISODES ABOUT…

Hello and welcome everyone. I’m Shauna Hoffman. I’m so excited to share with you our guest today because there’s nothing I love more than sharing with you stories of women who have gone after their passions and their dreams, and had come up with a way to help heal the world.

So, let me introduce you to our next guest, Dr. Victoria Fye. Before she shares her story with us about her journey, let me tell you a little bit about where she is today. Dr. Fye is a licensed clinical social worker. She resides in Ventura County, California. She has two master’s degrees, social work, and psychology. She earned her Ph.D. in clinical psychology and she published her dissertation self-injurious behaviors and social media use by adolescents in 2019.

That dissertation has been viewed by people across the globe from Europe to Asia. Dr. Fi has worked with a variety of different populations, including victims and perpetrators of domestic violence, victims of sex trafficking, incarcerated adolescents, and adults.

28 Let Your Superpowers Shine

July 25, 2020 By Shauna

WHAT THIS EPISODES ABOUT…

Hello Everyone, I’m Shauna Hoffman.

Are you ready to look at your brilliance today? Your creativity? Your kindness or compassion or heart? On this episode, we are going to GRAB CLAIM AND SCREAM to the universe our own, individual gifts. What’s my power? As life takes us on its own journey sometimes we lose track of what is deep in our souls as our most profound talents, our innate qualities or wisdom, or what I call our superpower. When we use our innermost talents to change ourselves, the world, and the planet for good then we are one of the heroes. But most importantly we release an energy within us that builds our own self-image and self-worth a million times over. And remember all those selves? One of the steps to self-awareness is to acknowledge our superpower! Then making use of that superpower makes you feel better about yourself and grows your feelings of self-worth. And all of your selves come alive from there! The better your self-image the more self-worth you have! And that can only attribute to your own sense of self-love! Combine all of that and you become your magnificent Genuine Self!

There is this great meme of a glacier with the quote…
What we see often is only a fractional part of what really is.

Listen in and enjoy…

27 I Don’t Do This

July 18, 2020 By Shauna

WHAT THIS EPISODES ABOUT…

Hello, Ladies…and a few very hip gentlemen who are listening to this podcast, I’m Shauna Hoffman.

Oh, today is going to be fun. I am sharing with you my favorite most empowering phrase of all time.

Let me give you a little lead-in for it first. You know that moment when you are shocked that you are engaging with someone who is just pissing you off? That moment when you find yourself arguing the inarguable with someone who just won’t listen? Yet, you keep talking? All of a sudden you are dragged into a storm and your mind is screaming how am I going to get out of this? And with some people in your life, this is an ongoing experience? I thoroughly believe …100 %… that there comes a time when you just have to say to yourself, “I don’t do this”. I just don’t do this.

26 Today Is Today

July 11, 2020 By Shauna

WHAT THIS EPISODES ABOUT…

Hello everyone! I’m Shauna Hoffman. I just wanted to thank you for giving me a couple of weeks off by listening to a few reprieve episodes. I’ve been trying to practice a little self-care for myself. You know the old saying physician heal thyself? I thought today we would delve into the idea that often times when we’re in the middle of a stressful point in our lives we feel like it’s never going to end and will go on forever. Whether it’s something as small as the fight with your best friend to a fight with your partner or your mother… to something as profound as losing someone that we love, we tend to get in this muck and mire and we feel like we’ll never get out of it. Talk about depression! I thought today what we would do is work through some really amazing tools to help us remember that this too shall pass.
