Warning: Triggers (Episode 103)

Genea BarnesGenea Barnes is committed to the elevation of humanity. Her work as an Elevation Guide focuses on helping individuals and groups to create greater effectiveness and ease in their lives. Neuro Linguistic Programming and hypnosis are among the tools she uses to neutralize self-sabotaging behavior, unwanted patterns, and emotional triggers with the aim of increasing self-worth and self-esteem. Genea speaks with Wendy Sheridan about elevation, the challenges/opportunities most of us find ourselves in, and what it looks like to apply the healing methods she uses in everyday life.

In News, the metaphorical “triggers” in the main interview are all too real: Robin Renée talks about a close-to-home New Jersey mass shooting. Then Wendy and Robin share info on the growing number of restrictive voting laws and add Jaden Smith’s pay-what-you-can vegan restaurant to the mix for a little news in the positive column. In The Blanket Fort: We Can’t Relax, We Have to Relax: navigating activism and self-care.
