That child may be waiting for a trigger to appear. As a responsible adult, you may be trying to figure out why you reacted as you did. In this fascinating conversation, Robert explains why you may be reacting a certain way and how you can heal the Inner Child and change your behavior.Robert Jackman can be found:Website: https://theartofpracticalwisdom.com/https://www.facebook.com/The-Art-of-Practical-Wisdom-106724507754215/ 

Unbreakable You: Breakup Without Being Broken

Healing Your Lost Inner Child

You may consider yourself a perfectionist, which may or may not be a good thing (depending on who you ask), but have you ever wondered where your perfectionism comes from? In this episode, I explore my "issues" around my own perfectionism, and how certain details of my childhood created this oh, so lovely, little trait of mine. Find out why you may be a perfectionist and what you can do to reign it in should it throw you off course. 

Why Do We Become Perfectionists?

Hey everyone, I'm back from the dead! Actually, that is almost a literal statement. After taking a few months off, I share with you my very personal story of what happened to me this summer, and why I had to get some help. I hope my sharing can help you on whatever journey you may be on. I am back and so excited to rock a new season, with lots of new episodes and all that I have learned.

My Most Personal Episode Ever

Lindsey interviews Dr. Alexandra Solomon, author of Taking Sexy Back about sex and sexuality. As women in our culture, we have been bombarded with messages from the outside world about who we should be, who we shouldn't be, what we should and shouldn't be doing. In this riveting episode, Lindsey & Dr. Solomon discuss how we look at sex as a society, how women can change their perspective on what 'sexy' is and what it means, and how we can feel better about their bodies. They discuss the female sex organs and how they relate to sex and the latest research on women and sexuality.This is a must-listen-to episode for all genders!Learn more about Dr. Alexandra Solomon.Mentioned in this episode:Erika Lust PhotographyMake Love Not Porn, TedX with Cindy GallopThe Beauty Myth by Renee EngleEsther Perel

This episode isn't really a podcast but a recording of my free "Power Hour" calls that I sometimes have with my subscribers. There's no show intro, but I am posting it here because it truly is worth a listen for anyone who feels alone in their situation and wants to be uplifted! 

Recording of "Power Hour" Q&A with Readers

I get this question all the time so I reached out to one of the top mediators (and attorney) in the country, Susan Guthrie, to set us straight. The answer? Yes, you can!  But unfortunately, not always, but it mostly has to do with the mediator and less about you and your case. On this episode, find out what you should be asking mediators and how to find one who has the experience to handle your (potentially) high conflict case.Have a question for Susan?

Can You Really Mediate with a Narcissist?

In this episode, I speak with Heidi Busche, author of Relationship Ready: How I Stopped Fucking Randos and Started Cupcaking My Soulmate (is that not the best title?)  After striking out with guy after guy, she was finally ready to try something different. After completing some soul-level, transformational work around men and relationships, Heidi decided that women every where could benefit from the tools that had helped her.  She left that cubicle life in 2018 to write her first book, Relationship Ready, and to chase her passion - helping women identify and change painful patterns in their relationships.  If you&apos;re ready to date, or maybe just thinking about, this episode is for you. Learn from our mistakes and hey, you may just laugh along the way!Get a copy of her book HERE.

Finally, A Coparenting Solution!

Many people tell me all the time, "Lindsey, I really should write a book on my life, how do I get started?" For starters, you will need a writing platform, a website, and a good number of subscribers and followers so that you can SELL your book, or whatever service you have. Since so many people asked me how to get started, I figured I'd do a podcast episode and share the behind the scenes on how I got started, and how I keep it going. Enjoy!

Behind the Scenes of My Biz (So YOU can start one too!)

How many times do you tell yourself things like, "I'm never organized, I'm not good at money, I'll never find love again, or I'm so stupid...." These are what I call 'negative labels' and you tell yourself these things because they were likely put on you by someone else (your ex, parent, sibling, etc). So how do you overcome these labels and find a more positive label for yourself? Take a listen!

How to Overcome Your Negative Labels

Research shows that we when are raised by a narcissistic parent, we will likely get into a romantic relationship with a narcissist. I explain the many reasons why this might be true, but the focus of this episode is about looking at your past and what baggage you brought into your relationship that didn't work out. And until you heal those childhood wounds, you will continue to manifest yet another narcissist in your life, romantically or even professionally! I call this baggage "The ghost of our fathers (or mothers)" and how they continue to subconsciously haunt us, but also how to let them go!
