Thank You Heartbreak with Chelsea Leigh Trescott

In a world filled with uncertainty and challenges, finding happiness can often feel like an elusive goal. In this episode, Chelsea engages in a captivating conversation with author Beth Romero about her recently released book, Happy AF, and her mission to prove that happiness is not just a fleeting emotion, but a choice that can be practiced and cultivated through consistent efforts. Beth addresses the incongruence between internal feelings and outward presentation and emphasizes the distinction between joy and happiness, positioning the latter as a consistent commitment and a lens through which to interpret life. Happy AF becomes a poignant life raft toward cultivating practices such as gratitude and affirmations, particularly during bouts of heartbreak and depression. Chelsea and Beth delve into the significance of maintaining consistency in happiness practices, encouraging listeners to experiment with different approaches. They touch on the transformative power of empathy in relationships and the potential for altering one's internal narrative to cultivate a more authentic, supportive, and positive existence.

In this courageous episode, we explore the complex world of codependency, trauma, and the healing path towards self-sovereignty. Our guest speaker The Conscious Codependence Coach, Cheryl Fidelman, bravely shares how her own codependent patterns formed as a result of her early exposure to trauma and instability. At the tender age of 4, she was sexually molested and two years later her father left after a domestic violence dispute, leaving her to shoulder the weight and responsibility of managing her mother’s mental health struggles. Throughout the conversation, Cheryl introduces her own unique methodology, Conscious Codependency Recovery, designed to guide individuals on their journey to overcoming codependency and becoming a sovereign being with boundaries and an open heart. She sheds light on the importance of recognizing the difference between true needs and codependent “illusions of needs,” our true selves and the "traumatic identity" we develop as a result of early life experiences, as well as the distinction between healthy intimacy and codependent intimacy. We also take a deep dive into forgiveness, emphasizing the significance of self-responsibility and healing the impact of past trauma rather than focusing on the story and assigning blame, as well as the idea of breaking one’s own heart, as codependents often unconsciously create situations that lead to heartbreak. Join us in exploring how to break the cycle of codependency, find your true nature, access deep, healthy intimacy, and embody freedom through the healing process.

Celebrated for her prominent role in As the World Turns, actress Melanie Smith has redirected her professional journey toward the exploration of heartache, grief, and reinvention. Her endeavors have encompassed guiding numerous individuals in breaking free from their past, unearthing their authentic identities, and masterminding profound shifts in their life trajectories. Joining Thank You Heartbreak at the 7-minute mark, Melanie provides an exclusive peek into the genesis of her inaugural book, "Unfinished Business: 8 Steps to Heal Your Trauma, Transcend Your Past, and Transform Your Life." She delves deeply into the intricate tapestry of emotions that propelled her research, recounting her personal odyssey of conquering childhood illness and subsequent solitude, debunking the illusion of an idealized existence, and embarking on the profound inner journey that facilitated her harmonious union with self and others. Within this emotionally charged narrative lies the poignant tale of her mother's untimely departure due to a rare form of cancer, the tragic death of her sister, the dissolution of her marital bond, and the dizzying relinquishment of her once-cherished dream home. These cascading adversities served as the impetus for her to confront a fundamental query: "Who would I be, could I be, if nothing or no one had ever gotten in my way?" Melanie’s work surrounding Unfinished Business underscores the significance of addressing lingering unresolved issues, which have the potential to obstruct the path to self-discovery and self-fulfillment, ultimately preventing individuals from embracing their destined sense of self.

Keynote speaker, success coach, author, television host, and philanthropist, Simon T. Bailey's purpose in life is to help you discover your brilliance and increase psychological well-being. Today's guest helped me regain the strength, perspective, and incentive to bring myself back to life. It was a game changer and life saver. We discuss his book Ignite the Power of Women In Your Life—A Guide for Men, heartbreak of climbing the ladder of perceived success only to discover it was propped against the wrong wall, building a house but losing a home, chasing money but having no meaning, pursuing power without purpose and gaining status but having no satisfaction, the hopelessness that greets you and your relationship when you're focused on outward appearances more than internal connections, healing the mother wound, filling the hole within you in order to show up whole in relationships, latching onto relationships out of desperation versus inspiration, how cherishing goes steps beyond loving someone, dating with more intention and communication before even meeting, ego versus eco, igniting the power of women, affirming men, suicidal ideation, the power and encouragement of going "just a little bit more" and becoming who you're meant to be as you answer a problem connected to your unique wiring, and so much more poignant and life-enhancing insights.

Psychotherapist, Truth Teller, and advocate for being a "difficult" woman, Tonya Lester joins Chelsea 9:10 minutes in to talk about the upside of being difficult (the good kind of difficult, that is), what's worse than heartbreak (spoiler: it doesn't involve a relationship ending), the masks we wear and the self we forfeit in order to attract and keep partners, freeing ourselves from the spiral of "if-only" I had been/done/or behaved like XYZ, the healing powers of curiosity, self-compassion, and vowing to use our past to change our future, internal family systems methodology, the motive of the mean voice, how shock absorbers in relationships always finish last, the power of self-possession, "kind narcissism," and why presenting ourselves as fully — vulnerably and accurately — as soon as possible is the best way to set ourselves up for a love that aligns with our true nature and intentions.

As a pain avoidant culture, we’ve been taught to fix what hurts us. To rush to the solve. To make it go away. That something’s wrong with us if we’re not feeling lovable. In today's episode, transformational and potentiality coach and author of 911 From Your Soul, Jeanine Thompson provides us an alternative approach and her signature soul solution, encouraging us to surrender to the challenge, journey, or crisis and rest in the darkness until the next reveal illuminates.

Married since 1972 and trained as psychotherapists, relationship counselors, and seminar leaders, Linda and Charlie Bloom join Chelsea 10:30 minutes in to talk about their 5th book, An End to Arguing: 101 Valuable Lessons for All Relationships. We dive deep into preventing painful interpersonal conflict, dropping the mask and exposing the whole spectrum of who you are early, dating with the agreement that you’re both practice partners who will do the best in this now moment while holding out the vision of where’d you’d like to go, the need to confront your partner about any misalignments before making the decision to leave, the importance of staying on the responsible side of a breakup, the vulnerability and threat that comes with caring, what drives us toward someone who is different than us, why there’s no passion without authenticity, how to ignite closeness after times of separation, and how the value and pleasure of a relationship only comes once you’ve hung in through the times when many people call it quits.

Author, poet, and advocate Lindsey Frazier joins Chelsea 7:45 minutes in to dive deeper into her memoir Oh Love, Come Close. We hit the bottom and bring up all the gold, like living with high-functioning depression, the stigma surrounding antidepressants and how taking medication isn’t about surrendering to our weakness but rather choosing endurance, suicidal ideation and the desire to escape our inescapable madness, combating the shame voices by hitting them with self-belief, leading by the mantra that "vulnerability breeds vulnerability" in parenting, the consequences of meeting our partner when we are in total trauma and the all too relatable fantasy that marriage will save us from our core wound, coming face to face with our sexuality, a partner’s indefinitely, and the stories raging within, the healing power of a couple breaking into their own humanness right in front of each other’s eyes, the redemptive moment when you see something bigger than oneself at play, stepping back and letting God move us, and coming to the end of ourselves and realizing that is the best place we could be.

Psychic therapist, medium, podcast host of The Genna Effect, and author of The Secret That’s Holding You Back, Vincent Genna, joins Chelsea 5:30 minutes in to explain how we are always manifesting what we believe about ourselves — hence, why the most courageous work we can ever undergo is discovering (and changing!) what it is we actually believe. Standout takeaways: every hurt creates a scar which, left unhealed, can be inflamed by future painful events, all the “I’m nots” — I’m not smart enough, I’m not good enough, etc. — has a common denominator pain of “I’m not lovable,” as soon as we detach from source, we feel abandoned, neglected, jealous, and angry, coping mechanisms are in place so we survive not thrive which is why we must disempower our defense mechanisms as adults, the 3 R exercise for better beliefs: review, replace, reinforce, attraction has nothing to do with another person, and everything to do with our beliefs about ourselves, the healing part of us that is loving ourselves more is not going to choose partners out of desperation, discretion comes with true self-love, reparenting ourselves sounds like the adult version of ourselves reasoning with our inner child, the harming effects of relationships built on a sexual foundation versus an emotional foundation first, and the major reason for mindfulness is to hear and understand what we are thinking so we can change it and evolve beyond our habits and history.

Child abuse and trauma recovery life coach and mentor, podcast host of Think Unbroken, speaker, and the author of Think Unbroken: Understanding and Overcoming Childhood Trauma, Michael Anthony joins Chelsea 12:30 minutes in to talk about hitting rock bottom multiple times, the price we pay for not looking in the mirror and healing, disarming vulnerability and honoring your gut instinct, the willingness and investment in betting on yourself and realizing your why, posting and sharing for attention versus connection, why you should only date if you know what you’re getting into, acknowledging core values immediately, never leading with assumptions while dating but demanding clarity, closing the gap between who you are and who you aspire to be, and why you better pay the taxes now or suffer later, plus so much more brilliance.

LA-based and Wisconsin-raised comic, actress, and author Brittany Schmitt needs everyone to get out of her way. Joining Chelsea 11:15 minutes in, she opens up about walking away from dependencies, starting with alcohol and her funny drunk chick persona to most recently her marriage. Where is she heading now? Toward the freest version of herself. We discuss humor being a defense mechanism, the usefulness of being taken down a notch, and drinking being a performance art piece, how there’s no right time to quit but rather you stop when you want your life back, the universal concern that we are too much for others, 2020 being the year that relieved us of compare and despair, the channels that open up energetically when you move through a mighty depression, confronting the bully, criticism as preparation for living a life out loud, the consequences of falling in love when you’re not in love with yourself, and how it’s never too late to give yourself the chance you couldn’t give yourself before.
