In this episode, Karen McMahon explores how fear-based decisions can feel safe in the moment but lead to complications down the road. We'll discuss the concept of the “safety bubble,” a powerful method that temporarily removes fear, allowing you to gain clarity and make decisions based on desire instead of fear. Decisions like whether to end or mend your marriage, how to handle telling your children, or whether to sell the marital home often come with...

Part 3 of our series focuses on how to appreciate and benefit from the different voices in your head and their unique perspectives by using “The Brain Huddle”, a practice author Jill Bolte Taylor, PhD refers to as a “Power Tool for Peace”.

The neurons in our brains are not all alike. Our brains think and feel in four different ways, every one of us.

In today’s show, Part 2 of You’re Not Crazy: Exploring the Voices in Your Head, Lisa and Karen familiarize you with the four distinct thinking and feeling modes in your brain introduced in Part 1.

It is an all too human tendency to react to stressful situations in counterproductive ways, to attack out of intense emotion without a clear purpose, to accommodate long after it's healthy to do so, or to avoid addressing situations that are destructive. While these are rarely wise strategies, they are disastrous strategies prior to, in the midst of, and post divorce. During this episode and the following two Team Talks, Karen McMahon and Lisa Brick discuss an alternative approach to attacking, accommodating, and avoiding, help you to understand what part of your brain gets hijacked when you...
