Ep 105 Are you over it? How do you know?
This solocast gets a little personal as I share my perspective on “Deal with it,” “Get Over it,” and Suck it up, buttercup.” These are the common phrases we hear or tell ourselves and it made me wonder, is this a good thing?
When Bessel van der Kolk wrote The Body Keeps the Score, the research shows that our body and cells hold onto deep emotional wounds. But, far too often, we stuff it all down. What happens then? Illness, disease, and pain - all the ways our body communicates with us.
Recently, I experienced a DEEP emotional (Somato-Emotional, Body, Mind) release with a trusted Craniosacral Therapist from the Upledger Institute. This is a therapy modality of soft-tissue release that I have also practiced for almost 20 years.
Be sure to ask your therapist when they last sought a treatment session. A skilled therapist will tell you that they are also committed to receiving treatments too. The giver needs to also release and re-balance themselves.
What are you holding onto and is it serving your body, mind, and life?
Is it better to get over it, or to shift into feeling and processing the emotion?

Ep 104 Aneace Haddad Soaring Beyond Midlife
What if the same forces that drive someone to change partners, quit their job or buy a convertible could instead bring rejuvenating energy to their current life, career, or organization?
My guest, Aneace Haddad, is only the 3rd man I have interviewed in over 100 episodes. This will be worth your time! Check out Episodes Happy Birthday Marine or Drumming as Therapy
Aneace, an Executive Level Coach guides Chief Executive, Financial and Technology Officers (CEO, CFO, and CTO) to embrace the changes of midlife, re-define leadership, and embark on an authentic self-discovery journey.
Discover the similarities and differences in both men and women after 40, 50, and beyond as we navigate what Aneace calls, the 3 Winds of Change. In his latest book, Soaring Beyond Midlife, Aneace brings an international and multi-cultural perspective to shine the light of wisdom on how clinging to our professional, personal, or parental identity can hold us back from taking flight to become the person we were meant to be in the world.
Hear how he supported a client to develop empathy at home in order to translate the skills in the workplace to experience less turnover.
Learn a surprising connection to the age and stage of a leader’s children to how one relates to colleagues and team members at work?
Aneace lives in Singapore and travels internationally for work. He is fascinated by the skill sets that emerge out of the midlife transformation.
Are the Executive Skills of a 45 year old the same as a 55 year old? Which is more important to develop, humility or an iron will?
Aneace heritage is half US/Iranian, lived in France and Singapore - Aneace's 15-year experience coaching multinational leaders, author of 'The Eagle that Drank Hummingbird Nectar', brings incredibly valuable insights.

What is one fun fact you rarely share that may help women in midlife/over 40/50 and beyond?
FUN FACT One that surprises most people is that your metabolism stays roughly the same from your 20s until you turn 60. So it doesn’t slow down in your 40s and 50s as most women think. (We are the ones slowing down, not our metabolism LOL)

Ep 102 - 100th Episode Celebration Part 2; Can You (Really) Feel the LOVE?
In Ep 100, I started you out on the humility journey, and I wanted to make sure I shared more.
I have felt love in my love - the love of a parent, a child, a sibling, a dear friend…
Sometimes - love is all you need, perhaps even all you desire, and occasionally, love just is not enough.
In February, there is a LOT of talk about love, pink and red roses, chocolate, ok we can’t fault chocolate for getting dragged into a self-limiting belief of the construct of the marketing extravaganza (known as Valentine’s Day). Chocolate is good and does not need to be limited to Feb 14th.
Personally, I believe we can and should bring love to the important people in our lives every single day. Am I alone in this?
How to TRULY Feel the Love in Your Life
In this Episode, Hillary will discuss:
Ask yourself - why am I eating/drinking/doing THIS right now?
Is there an emotion I am trying to NUMB instead of feel and let it flow through its course?
---------------------------------------------------
What Hill learned about… loving myself in 2023
The ONE best step you should take to feel more love in your life…
Get outside 20 minutes/day - UNPLUGGED Or, I have another option for you.
Spend time in stillness and silence - start with 5 minutes/day and build up to 20 minutes. This IS HARD!

Ep 100 - Celebrate 100th Episode Part 1
Well, I am thrilled and a little embarrassed all at once. I released Ep 101 BEFORE 100! Oh well, another notch in my humility belt.
What are you celebrating and why?
Is it hard to pause to acknowledge a small or big step towards progress? What about without alcohol or junk food?
Imagine you are feeling good, strong, confident, and competent… CELEBRATE!
How would facing that fear and getting unstuck feel?
What would your future self say to your present self?
Take time to rest, slow down, and recognize those accomplishments! We get ONE life!

If you are feeling overwhelmed, struggling with focus, staying on track, or finding the elusive work-life balance, then this episode is for you. Many of us do not consider ourselves entrepreneurs or business owners, unless we are making money and supporting ourselves. The truth is — if you have a product or service that you are trying to share with the world in order to make other people’s lives, better or easier, then you can call yourself an entrepreneur or business owner.
In this episode, I chat with Dr. Moira Hanna, an organizational psycholologist, college professor, podcaster and homeschool Mom who helps course creators get from idea to implementation.

Ep 88. Dedicated to the NCSSM Class of 1988. Women support women in a lot of ways. As we wrap up ADHD and Menopause Awareness Month, I wanted to share a personal experience at my 35th high school reunion.
Have you ever attended a class reunion? Middle School, High School or College?
There is a lot of thought that goes into planning and attending a reunion. And then there is the fear, who will show up or will they recognize me? It takes courage to show up and be ourselves. We may wonder if others are more successful or happier than we are?
The great thing about getting older, is that the majority of people do grow up and just want you to be happy in life as well. Give it a try. Show up for yourself and for the person who thought you were very cool in life.
You will learn about accepting the greater challenge, the NCSSM motto (North Carolina School of Science and Math). And after 40, sometimes the greater challenge is showing up or setting healthy boundaries.
At the end, I share encouragement I wrote to a dear friend - if you need to hear that you are worthy regardless of your performance, perfection, or expectations of others, be sure to listen until the end.
Here's to finding your unicorn in life, your greatest purpose, with roots to remember the past, but wings to fly into what is next for you. What feeds your soul and passion?\
Thank you to Julie, Anja, Emily and all those who created an amazing experience, a true labor of love for 1/3 of our graduating class to attend.
