Even days later, the sting of that empty job promise (fake job promise) refuses to fade away. I can't seem to shake the feelings of anger, disappointment, and embarrassment that come with being led on and then left high and dry. It's one of those situations that keeps replaying in my mind, no matter how hard I try to move past it. The more I dwell on it, the more questions arise. I'm pretty sure it was a transphobic "attack" on me and Vanessa. If you've ever found yourself in a similar position—thrilled by the prospect of a new opportunity (when you've been unemployed for months...years), only to have it ripped away—you know how deeply that can cut. It's a harsh reminder of how vulnerable we can feel when our hopes are tied to something as crucial as employment. For those wondering about the company behind this letdown, Vanessa spilled it on the latest episode of the Transcending Humanity Podcast. While I'm still licking my wounds, I refuse to let this experience diminish my determination. The path may be lined with rejections and disappointments, but I'll keep pushing forward, opening myself up to new possibilities—just a little wiser and more guarded after this recent letdown. #Hiring #Jobs #JobSearch #JobSeekers #Scams #Podcast #TranscendingHumanity

Talking about these inner pieces that take over and are destructive with love addiction. How do we catch these reactions, calm them, and choose a constructive response? Recognizing and naming our emotional reactions is a powerful skill. It’s about building the bridge between self-awareness and body connection, so we can: 👉 Identify triggers. 👉 Anchor safety in our bodies. 👉 Choose a response that aligns with our values, not just our emotions. Through practices like mindfulness, we can learn to move from reaction to reflection—and ultimately, to meaningful action. 💭 How do you learn about your "inner child?" 🎙️ Listen to our latest podcast episode to explore love addiction and the “4 R’s” of managing reactions and cultivating growth in every situation. 🔗 Find our podcast episodes here: https://lnkd.in/g-8wgdVP #AddictionRecovery #MentalHealthAwareness #BreakingTheCycle #Podcast #Sexaddiction #Betrayal Trauma #RelationshipSolutions #LoveAddiction

Today, I share my conversation with the Founder of PsycheX, Joah Halu, and his invited guest, suicide loss survivor-mom Natika Terrell. ‘Plant medicine’ has gotten a bad rap, becoming stigmatized back in 'hippie culture' that led to government bans, which are (thankfully) now beginning to disappear, allowing for unparalleled mental health research and incredible breakthroughs for depression, PTSD and more...But stigmas do not stop us here- we live & breath in a stigma-laden, all new world after suicide loss.
