Stop Abandoning Yourself: How I Started Trusting Me Again

Description:

In this  episode, I talk about the subtle ways I abandoned myself in the name of peace, love, and loyalty. I thought I was being selfless, but I was really just disappearing.

If you’ve ever stayed quiet to avoid conflict, made yourself smaller to be accepted, or felt overlooked in your own story, you’re not alone. I’ve been there too.

In this conversation, I share:

  • The hidden signs of self-abandonment
  • Why people-pleasing isn’t love, it’s survival
  • How I began to choose myself even when it was uncomfortable
  • Spiritual reminders that helped me reclaim my voice and worth
  • A message to the past version of me who kept holding it all in

This is your invitation to come back home to yourself.

Cardiac Cowboys

Cardiac Cowboys

The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
