The Divorce Survival Guide Podcast


Jun 10, 2021

I am joined this week by Dr. Shyamala, Podcast Host, Media Expert for National T.V., and founder of The EQ Code, a coaching program for high-performing women who are ready to transform their relationships, so they can execute on their mission at a whole new level.

Dr. Shyamala and I geeked out on emotional intelligence, communication styles, and the importance of focusing on the deep work needed in order to get the relationship transformation you desire.  We also talk about how to show up with courage and integrity in your life.

Show Highlights

  • Reprogramming your brain and why it is important as a framework for change. (7:56)
  • We know that children are incredibly resilient when it comes to separation and divorce - but what we need to really be aware of is when children are raised inside a home where there are toxic relationship templates being played out. (11:56)
  • Most methods of change fail because most of them are behaviorally centered. (15:22)
  • How to embody a level of transformation in order to live life fully and unapologetically. (21:47)
  • Why toxic positivity is damaging, feeds on our insecurities, and also creates more of them. (26:13)
  • How to Identify beliefs that have been plaguing you for a lifetime. (28:47)

  • You cannot have a boundary without assertive communication. (37:12)
  • Showing up with courage and integrity in your relationships has nothing to do with the outcome. (45:07)
  • When we are acting out of alignment with our values, integrity, and courage - we become resentment machines. (45:50)
