And the couch story! Just when you think the podcast is over, we really get personal! - Enjoy, Jason Lebowitz - XXO CONNECT.

Do you have any idea how much s#it we hold on within our bodies over the years through trauma and repressed emotions? And why the hell would you want to hold on to that painful s#it if you knew there is no need to? “Clearing trapped emotions out of the body untethers you from the stories you have decided to tell yourself. It liberates you out of the trauma, triggers and self-sabotage to reintegrate and, live your best life!” This was such a powerful conversation with Jen Russman on how to use your emotions as energy, as well as how to use them to release energetic attachments to trauma to heal all of it once and for all! As she clearly expresses, "We are meant to live and be the best version ourselves. When we learn to be “whole” there is no lack!" Ask yourself this question: Who would you really be without the story you’re attached to? - All Love.

On September 4th 2020, I was a guest on Laura Nutt’s Podcast. It was her second recording. Although she chose not to pursue podcasting and release the episodes, she gave it to me so it will live under XXO Podcast. -- I’m in the guest chair today. We talk about where XXO started, dating and relationship struggles, online dating, codependency, inner work to connection, distraction, mental health, the relationship to self, and the transition from career to matchmaking to connection platform. The moment I stopped believing in reality.  --

At 16, Shannon Bowling found herself escaping an unsafe, dysfunctional family environment. She turned to theater and acting as protection and a coping mechanism for survival. While acting grounded her, allowing to express and process trauma, it also trapped emotions deep within. - We talked about healing, leaving behind the character and acting to face yourself, personal development and breaking patterns of unhealthy relationships. Full acceptance and gratitude to survive and thrive. --

Cultural change begins with disruptors. They are the ones who refuse to accept ‘this is how it is’ limited mindset and realize the rules don’t apply to them. They stir up the world, projecting their voice to shift towards positive change and breaking cultural habits. Raquel Borras shares her journey of shifting her internal family culture with this mindset. 

We discuss unhealthy family dynamics, boundaries, clinical depression and how it stemmed from her family dynamic, the pressure of it all and thoughts of taking her life, and the transformation when she became vulnerable. --

It was 2009. What felt like a pharmaceutical experiment for Krista Samimi inside a psychiatric facility became a 72-day lockup. Delusions of the FBI and FDA after her were signs of living with bipolar disorder. An ugly sweater party was the turning point regaining freedom. A google search almost became the end of her. 

We talk about mindset, mental wellness, gut-brain axis, depression and soul work.--

A Nebuchadnezzar moment saved her life. During months of sickness, depression and suicidal ideations, a shell of Laura Nutt decided she needed to die as a way to sacrifice herself in order to free her family. It was in that moment she had a vision that she did commit suicide. “As I was dying, I saw Jesus say ‘I was just about to heal you’.”

We talked about mental health, depression, emotional and physical trauma stored in the body, distraction, breaking free of family trauma and releasing negative energy and core beliefs.--
