The Farewell Episode with Tosha Silver
9/17/2019
Dear Listeners, I can't believe I am releasing the last Something Better episode, but after months of life balance challenges, heartfelt prayer and listening (meditation) I feel certain that it is time for me to let go of Something Better, and with a heavy heart I bid you farewell. I thought I could reshape a plan and trim the hours I put in but as my dad used to say, "there is no substitute for hard work" and attempting to do the podcast along with music and yoga has taxed me in some pretty...

OK2BKRZ: Yin (Feminine) and Yang (Masculine) Behaviors
8/27/2019
Re-issue, original post date: Oct 2, 2018 My elementary school-age nieces visited my studio last summer and weighed in briefly on their experience of their feminine energy- I thought it may inspire. In this episode I go into my experience opening up to spiritual solutions as I entered a constant conversation with the Universe, (or Source as you understand it, whatever you call it; Jesus, Buddha, God, Hashem....) I believe it communicates back! I highly recommend you try it. As you nurture...

Personal Responsibility Means Letting Others Go
8/13/2019
The truth about focusing on others as if they are your ticket to happiness is...it’s a mental prison. The only way to really be free is to take full responsibility for the one you CAN change and make choices for: yourself. That almost always means letting others go. (Even your kids.)

Depression: Deep Rest
7/30/2019
This episode is on a quote I saw on Jim Carrey’s Twitter: “The word depressed can be spoken as deep rest. We can choose to view depression not as a mental illness but as a state of deep rest, a spiritual exhaustion that we enter into you when we are de-pressed (pressed down) by the weight of the false self, the mask, the mind-made up story of “me”. We long to stop pretending and express our raw truth! To give voice to our secret loneliness, our shame, our broken hearts, boredom and brilliant...

Healing the Mother with Jennifer Arnise
7/23/2019
Author, speaker, coach and podcaster Jennifer Arnise absolutely widened my mind through this conversation. I thought I was getting on a call about emotional growth regardless of background; that our wounds are our wounds, and we are all walking each other home. What I came to accept is, while that may be true, in particular, between white and black women—this can only take place AFTER trust is earned and our very different histories are honored, acknowledged, and respected. Even though I...

Unworthiness: The Root of Longing
7/9/2019
Lots of women that contact me are caught in some form of longing's elusive trap. These days, busy women can "make a meal" on crumbs of text messages and hope he will come around, because they haven't yet taken the time to do the deep inner work about worthiness. If you find yourself thinking about someone you barely know, or are still caught in a trap of drifting to memories about the one who isn't here now, or even if you fall into mental potholes wishing your spouse would be different,...

Informed by the Jungian depth psychological tradition through her graduate training and particularly the work of Marion Woodman and Robert Johnson, Sheryl Paul is a devotee of the unconscious. She says "our culture tells us that anxiety is the problem but the truth is that it’s the distress flare signaling that it’s time to slow down and discover what needs attention in the interior realms of self.
