Happy 8th Podversary to Journey to There! Life is a journey full of twists and turns, and this podcast is no exception. New adventures, new lessons, and even some life lessons from Finn! Catch up with Journey to There podcast host, Traci DeForge as she reflects on her journey through life's highs and lows and shares her musings on love, light, and joy
Before I officially titled this episode I asked myself… is this new iteration of the J2T podcast a reboot or a renaissance? I felt like it was the latter but honestly, I had to look up the definition to be certain!
Ren·ais·sance
/ˈrenəˌsäns/
a revival of or renewed interest in something.
noun: renaissance; plural noun: renaissances
Alas, it is a true renaissance!
Today is the 8th Podversary of Journey to There and with any anniversary comes reflection. Some of which are bittersweet. Why did I let some much time lapse? What if I had kept it moving forward? Is it worth bringing it back?
I need to reign in the negative self-talk that’s ramping up fast because I want to indulge in some good ole fashion flogging with thoughts like, “I own a damn full service production company. How could I let this happen?” The answer is I didn’t “let” anything happen. Life happened.
So, let’s catch up!
The pandemic impacted everyone individually and collectively. I’m still sorting through the whirlwind effect it had on our lives including the fact that I still don’t have my full ensemble of taste buds back but I digress.
My husband and I left the South Florida seaside life for the mountains of Taos, NM in 2020. This literal journey came with high expectations and ended with some bottomed out emotional disappointments.
My salve of course was to bury myself neck deep in Produce Your Podcast which resulted in 3X growth. Yay! But if you’ve listened to any previous episodes of this podcast then you know…building successful businesses has never been my challenge. Building a successful personal life is my never ending life lesson. Times haven’t changed that much.
We left Taos and made a pit stop in Tucson, Az for a year. I was so checked out of my life that I literally justified the decision to live in a town that held no interest for me and wasn’t remotely close to any of my friends and family. My brain told me none of that mattered because my focus needed to be on growing the business and that was all I was planning on doing anyway. Never underestimate the power of a work addicted brain.
And now, a new adventure has begun with an International move to Mexico. I’m reconnected to my seaside life which I affectionately refer to as my sea -soul life. Although, I’m still not remotely geographically close to friends and family- they are a lot more likely to visit me here. We also added a new addition to the family. His name is Finn and he is a 100lb Golden Doodle who everyone should take their life lessons from…
1. Always be up for an adventure
2. Every day brings a new chance to experience joy
3. If you live for naps and snacks the rest will take care of itself.
It’s fair to say I’m still on my journey to there; thus the renaissance of the podcast. I’ve learned a few new lessons along the way and come through the other side of some stuff aka sh*t and ready to share my musings with you.
I’m looking forward to this next chapter of the pod. I want us to connect, hang out and learn from each other. I'm rebooting without putting any pressure on myself. I’m not setting any specific goals on how many episodes there will be and when they will be released. I’m giving myself grace. I’m giving myself permission to be creative in

Did you know that keeping traumas unresolved can result in lowering expectations of how others should treat us? It is not an easy process to face our early childhood traumas. That’s why it’s important to create a safe space where you can share whatever it is that you need to share. And no matter how difficult the healing process is, feeling stuck in your own life is always worse. Tune in to this episode of Journey to There to hear the experiences and wisdom of Tambry Harris, a spiritual and life coach who went through the process of peeling the layers of trauma and now is helping others do the same thing and get to the other side where we feel loved and free. In This Episode: [03:00] How childhood abuse influenced Tambry’s adult life. [08:15] The importance of having someone to share your fears with. [10:28] How does shame affect us in keeping secrets? [13:30] Tambry had a sense of not being worthy for a long time. Here’s how she understood where this feeling came from. [15:30] How keeping traumas unresolved can result in lowering expectations of how others should treat us? [18:40] Where to start the healing process when we feel stuck? [25:00] People pleasers tend to surround themselves with “predators” who will take advantage of them. [28:10] The importance of slowing down and paying attention to what is happening inside of our bodies and minds.
Key Takeaways: It’s really helpful to have someone you can be vulnerable with, no matter what it is that you need to share. We need to talk about our traumas and what hurt us because it’s the only way we'll understand it and finally let it go. You deserve to be loved. You need to claim it. It takes a lot of courage to face your fears, but the freedom on the other side is always worth it.

It’s time to start viewing your health as wealth. In this episode of Journey to There, I have an in depth conversation with the phenomenal Noosheen Hashemi. Noosheen is an award-winning entrepreneur, investor, philanthropist, and founder and CEO of January.ai, a health tech company that harnesses the power of artificial intelligence to prevent, predict, and postpone chronic disease. Its mission is to empower people to take back their health through knowledge and self-advocating. Noosheen and I discuss the importance of early detection, why generic advice doesn’t work on an individual level, and the impact artificial intelligence can have on your health. Listen to discover how to start taking back your health today!
In This Episode:
[01:44] The long journey that lead Nosheen to machine learning and healthcare [05:36] How Covid-19 has changed the structure and nature of our working days [07:22] What inspired Nosheen to take a bet on herself and start her own company [10:22] How Nosheen’s company, January.ai, is addressing staggering diabetes statistics by helping people predict and prevent illness [16:11] Why generic advice doesn’t work, specifically when it comes to sugar [19:07] The power of AI, the years of hard work and research it took to get here, and what the future holds [21:33] How you can take back your health starting today
Key Takeaways:
Early detection is key, especially when it comes to diabetes. The further into diabetes that you progress, the fewer options you have, and the worse your trade offs become. With January.ai, you’re able to make better decisions about what you eat and what you purchase for yourself, giving you more control to still eat what you want to eat. AI has a huge role in bringing access to people who don't have it today because they can't afford this phenomenal tech. Keep asking why and you will come up with the answers. The earlier you catch things, the more you know about your health, the more you can self-advocate, and the better your chances are of preventing disease further down the road.

It’s more important than ever to find joy in this world. In today’s episode of Journey to There, I chat with Kelsey Abbott about the importance of finding your joy through Human Design. Kelsey is an Intuitive Human Design Reader and certified professional coach who is a manifesting generator - living her life by her design and finding (and helping others find) joy. Join us as we take a deep dive into the importance of understanding Human Design and using it to find your truth, break out of your cages, and find your own “awesome.” This is the permission you’ve been waiting for!

Bio:
Cheryl was packaged in Canada and distributed in Los Angeles. She grew up around music and acting, a passion for radio and the different mediums of communication, immersion in the arts & being of service. That translated into a diverse career both in front of and behind the mic and camera. It's also afforded her a unique insight into a myriad of production environments, the demands of each one, and the ability to use discretion, diplomacy, and respect for all the players involved in a project. Not to mention the value of delivering content on time.
Cheryl followed her love of music by doing national radio & record promotion for some of the top Jazz artists in the business and served as a music host on numerous NPR stations in California. She used her handmade leather satchel to carry music to the station and referred to it as her “sound satchel” and named one of her shows ‘The Sound Satchel’. It became the obvious choice when naming her business and voice-over studio.
After 10+ years of promotion, Cheryl pursued her other love and went to New York for a brief study at the American Academy of Dramatic Arts. Upon returning to L.A., she continued studying acting, improv with Second City, joined SAG, and enjoyed a modicum of success in tv & film before being presented with the opportunity to be an ad agency commercial producer.
Cheryl also had the great pleasure to work as Talent Producer on the Writers Guild of America, West, Award Show for two years, and prior to that, served as the show’s first female live announcer.
She resides in the Bay Area and shortly after building her dream voice studio out of a former recording studio, the Tubbs fire affected the adjoining business and she moved her voice services in-house. She’s also back doing some on-camera work for locally filmed productions and corporate training.

Rhonda saw a clear consumer need and personal passion to take better care of her naturally curly hair. Her curls were something she was proud of and she felt distinguished her personality. After years of using relaxers and other chemical laden products, and high heat styling methods that damaged her hair to modify her natural curl pattern, she felt there had to be a better way.
After transitioning away from chemically processed hair in 2001, Rhonda eventually developed her own hair products incorporating natural ingredients that were especially effective for naturally curly hair textures. With this experience not only as a Chemist but also as a customer, Rhonda developed what would eventually become the Inahsi Naturals product line.

Dr. Ginger Campbell talks about her journey with passion for neuroscience, her own podcast, Brain Science, and her book, “Are You Sure? The Unconscious Origins of Certainty,” in hopes to share her knowledge with others. Listen to Dr. Campbell and expand your knowledge of the human's subconscious mind, the decision making process, and our emotional effect on memories as time goes on.
In This Episode:
[02:18] Dr. Campbell talks about beginning her podcast, Brain Science, in 2006. [06:53] Dr. Campbell’s spiritual journey and expertise in the neuroscience field. [10:44] All about her book and what she hopes to share with people. [13:01] Describing the “Feeling of Knowing”. [17:12] Individual personalities and the effects it has on their decision making processes. [20:07] Dr. Campbell describes cognitive dissonance. [27:17] Traci and Dr. Campbell speak about the process of rationalization and how it affects those dealing with addiction. [32:42] Memory recall and how it keeps changing over time. [36:51] The concept of ‘Flashbulb Memory’ and the role of our emotions. [42:54] The ‘Three Day Rule’ and following our intuition.
Key Takeaways:
On her own spiritual journey, Dr. Campbell became interested in studying the unconscious mind while reading eastern and western medicine. She became fascinated by the way that science actually starts off as philosophy and turns into science and the idea of consciousness and unconsciousness to study the power of the mind became her main focus of study and research. Dr. Campbell feels strongly about educating people on the way that the brain works. The key thing she wants people to understand is knowing the way the brain works so we understand our own behavior and others behavior. It’s also important to understand that most of what our brain does is unconscious and that’s why we can do things without really thinking about them. Memory is dynamic and it can be easy to create false memories in our minds by hearing things from other people and soon enough your memories and theirs can be mixed together.
Bio:
Dr. Ginger Campbell is best known for her highly respected podcast Brain Science, which launched back in 2006. She has a passion for making complex ideas accessible and helping scientists share their work with non-scientists. Dr. Campbell is also the author of "Are You Sure? The Unconscious Origins of Certainty." She lives in Birmingham, AL where she cares for veterans at the Birmingham VA Medical Center.

Our guest today is Naz Beheshti. She is the author of Pause. Breathe. Choose: Become the CEO of Your Wellbeing. Naz opens the show by diving deep into her background. Previously, Naz went through many corporate experiences including working as the executive assistant to Steve Jobs. Listen as she shares how he inspired her to focus on her wellbeing in the workplace by watching him walk the walk. Most people don't realize that overworking yourself is a dead-end street.

Tune in as Naz gives tips on improving your wellness, mitigating stress, and making mindful choices.
In This Episode:
[02:25] Naz Beheshti dives into her background – including working as the executive assistant to Steve Jobs. [05:25] Workplace stress is dead-end stress; don’t get caught up in the productivity trap. [08:30] Naz explains why the ultimate wealth is wellbeing. [12:05] Once you understand the value of self-care, you will prioritize it more frequently. [14:50] How to manage the balance between being connected + unconnected at the same time. [18:00] About the practice of mindfulness. [19:55] The meaning behind Pause. Breathe. Choose.

Practice mindfulness every day. That way, you can unveil your truest self and desires.

Meet Camille Martin, a registered dietitian, public health writer, and former chronic dieter. Her book, Love To Lose: Love Your Life and Watch the Weight Lose Itself, explores precisely why you haven't been successful losing weight and how to change all that. Camille, based on her personal and professional experience, explains why diets will never, ever work, and exactly what does.
When we're going through a hard time, emotional eating and alcohol can be significant issues. Many women use food to fill a void; you can tell you're an emotional eater if you eat when you're not hungry, you devour every single thing on your plate, and the act of eating is what fills you up rather than what you're eating. Until you fix how you're eating, then what you're eating won't matter. First, improve your habits, then you can focus on what's on the plate.
Camille reveals a concrete plan to change your habits and break free from our downward spiral. Plus, she shows how to be your authentic self and live a fulfilling life that you truly love.

Meet Eleni Theodorou, a celebrated children's author, bullying prevention educator, and keynote speaker. Eleni teaches students - online and in-person - the Art of Compassion through her multi-sensory, culturally-rich bullying prevention programs called "Noko Busts Bullying!", with lasting results.
The word bully is heavily weighted and comes with severe consequences. Children need to understand the difference between someone who is having a bad day and someone who is a bully. Parents also need to be educated on the difference between those two things – remember, there are always two sides to every story. Eleni makes sure to present this perspective in her bullying program.

Takeaways:
When we're going through hard things, the most powerful thing we can do for ourselves and others is to share that experience authentically. Sharing helps us realize we're not in it alone. We're all going through these various phases of grief and coping and discovery through this pandemic. Spend some time paying attention to what you're passionate about, what you're good at and where you're needed. When we triangulate the answer to those three questions, that's generally the right direction to go in.

Have you heard of Enneagrams? Ever been curious about your Enneagram Number? Denee King, Host of the Love Thy Number Podcast tells us how the discovery of her number was a game changer for her personally & professionally. Bonus...She gives me the skinny on my number and how has significantly influenced my life choices!
An Invitation to Listen from my guest Denee...
When I was introduced to the Enneagram almost 10 years ago I began to find answers to some of my own questions and it was absolutely liberating! I learned I wasn’t broken or heartless but that I process thinking from a different perspective than many others. I realized my ability (see how I put a positive spin on that? :-) to move, with lightning speed, from one great idea to the next didn’t mean I had ADHD or was scatterbrained! All those revelations just meant I was hard-wired for excitement and variety and I could now learn how to grow into the healthiest form of myself. Awareness became my greatest gift. I discovered the world of personality types and found a common thread with others who had my same fears and motivations. Learning the way other types process thoughts and emotions has helped me bridge the language barrier. That’s really what our ‘type’ is: it’s our native language. But trying to have relationship with those who speak a different language requires effort and a lot of love. This is the true beauty of the Enneagram. It’s a tool to help us know ourselves and, in doing so, we can know others…to love ourselves so we can share love with others.
I make a fantastic lemon raspberry cake and a banana pudding that is to die for! If you’re visiting our home that might be all you need to know about me. :-)
