Keep the Focus on Yourself- The #1 Boundary Setting Rule | Episode 315
Send us a textPeople tend to hear the motto “keep the docus on yourself” and think it means “be selfish.” That could not be further from the truth. It’s actually about stopping your focus on what other people, places, and things are doing (or not doing) and turning that focus inward. This week’s episode 315 of the Fragmented to Whole Podcast is about the number one boundary-setting rule: keep the focus on yourself. In this episode of the Fragmented to Whole Podcast, I’m sharing what it really means to keep the focus on yourself and 5 actionable pieces of advice you can take to start practicing this today. Your journey to wholeness begins with turning the focus inward. Start today by asking yourself what you truly want, need, and prefer.

How to Go from Victim Mentality to Empowered Living - You Have Choices | Episode 313
Send us a textBefore recovery, I had no idea how many areas of my life I didn’t even perceive as having a choice in. I thought, ‘This is just the way it is; this is just how life works.’ But one of the greatest freedoms recovery has given me is learning that I actually do have choices, and the greatest of those freedoms is the freedom to choose what I think and believe. This week’s episode 313 of the Fragmented to Whole Podcast is about how to go from victim mentality to empowered living!In this episode of the Fragmented to Whole Podcast, I share how I went from feeling powerless to living an empowered life by recognizing that I have choices! I delve into the concept of victim mentality, how our internalized beliefs can limit our choices and keep us feeling trapped in destructive patterns, and ultimately, how to choose peace and intentionality over reactivity. I encourage you to start by identifying one area in your life where you've been playing the victim. Make a conscious choice today to approach that situation with intention, personal responsibility, and hope.Be sure to tune in to all the episodes to receive tons of practical tips on living a more whole life and to hear even more about the points outlined above.Thank you for listening!

The Humbling Truth Behind My Need to Rescue and How I Got Out of It | Episode 312
Send us a textFor much of my life, I've known that one of my most hated human characteristics is arrogance. So, imagine my surprise when I learned in recovery that I was arrogant. Recovery also helped me understand that I hated it because it was something in me that I didn't like. And you know what we say in recovery: you spot it, you got it, and often, if you're spotting something regularly in other people, it's because you have it and probably don't like it. This week’s episode 312 of the Fragmented to Whole Podcast is about the humbling truth behind my need to rescue and how I got out of it. Some of the talking points I go over in this episode include:Recovery helped me realize that my desire to help others stemmed from the need for control and superiority. Pointing out the different types of arrogance: intellectual, moral, spiritual, and social. Strategies for overcoming the need to rescue or fix others (including some language to use when doing so). I encourage you to reflect on your own "helping" behaviors. Are you truly supporting others or subtly trying to control outcomes? Challenge yourself to approach relationships with genuine curiosity and respect for others' capabilities.Be sure to tune in to all the episodes to receive tons of practical tips on living a more whole life and to hear even more about the points outlined above.Thank you for listening!
