    Overcoming Health Scares to Find Happiness with Alyssa Young

    Overcoming Health Scares to Find Happiness with Alyssa Young

    Looking for the strength to overcome a health scare? This week's guest courageously shares her journey battling  an eating disorder, an early onset scare with breast cancer, and managing her anxiety. 

    Other areas of discussion with Alyssa Young: 

    • Having a mindset that you are already doing enough
    • Why breathing exercises are a game changer
    • Don’t downplay your tough time
    • Scheduling time for happiness

    At the young age of 14 years old, Alyssa experienced her first anxiety attack. She was actually on a mission trip in Miami with her youth group, and didn't even realize what "anxiety" was at the time.

    Anxiety can present itself in so many different ways, including physical symptoms of which she was experiencing. Her youth pastor and another one of their other staff members took her to the emergency room late that evening, and as they ran many tests to check everything physically, everything came back normal.

    Nothing was physically wrong, which was great news, but when they concluded everything, she was told that she had an anxiety attack. Upon returning home from the mission trip, Alyssa followed up with her PCP as normal, and began her journey with a phenomenal therapist.

    Alyssa learned the ins and outs of anxiety and what it was, what could trigger it, and gained so many amazing tools that she still implements to this day! Since the age of 14, which would be 11 years ago, Alyssa has been thrown many curveballs in her life including an aggressive eating disorder, an early onset scare with breast cancer, being hospitalized due to both of those, and of course the ongoing journey of feeling that she is enough in every way.

    Stay tuned for the spotlight story at the end of the show. Vincent and Alyssa will dive into an article discussing eating disorders. You can follow along at this link: https://centerfordiscovery.com/blog/common-mental-health-disorders-associated-eating-disorders/

    Energetic Clutter + Loving Yourself with Tanya Cole Lesnick

    Energetic Clutter + Loving Yourself with Tanya Cole Lesnick

    After 3.5+ years, the show finally has an Instagram Live episode. Welcome back, Tanya.

    Areas of discussion:

    • Cleaning out our life's clutter
    • Change is never easy
    • Loving yourself
    • What is your message?
    • People Pleasing

    Link to her first episode here: How Therapy Changed Her World: Graphic Design to LCSW

    Head to her LinkTree in profile on Instagram here

    Head to her website here

    Her Story:
    ..the one that brought me to therapeutic work, began when I was in my mid-twenties and had my own first experience with a therapist. 

    At the time my love life wasn’t living up to my hopes and I wanted a better understanding of what was getting in the way. 

    Some thirty-odd years ago now, going to therapy was something I felt a lot of shame about. I felt flawed, broken, and didn’t want to share those parts of myself with someone else, but finding the courage to reach out to my therapist led to more sharing than I ever expected. 

    We met for traditional one-on-one therapy, but soon she was encouraging me to participate in group therapy. I’ll admit that I questioned group, but tried it because I trusted her, and through it found answers and a new path.

    That experience with group therapy changed my life so significantly that not only did I meet and marry my husband during that time, I also made the decision to leave my career as a graphic designer and become a therapist myself, getting a Master’s in Social Work from NYU, and dedicating my life to helping others lead lives that they truly love.

    During my nearly three decades as a licensed clinical social worker, psychotherapist and coach I have run hundreds of groups, and continue to find therapeutic groups to be an incredibly powerful way to foster emotional growth.

    Although I have extensive experience in outpatient hospital mental health and private practice settings, it’s in the action-focused coaching work that I have seen the most lasting change. I have combined my two most powerful tools—group and coaching work—to create my transformational coaching program,  Activate.

    My own life gets lit up by this work, as well as by my 30-year marriage, my two incredible daughters, my adorable dachshund, a crackling fire, a hike in the woods, hanging with friends, and a really good rom-com.
