S10. Episode 1: Stuck or Stagnant? Maybe this episode should be called, “Why Do I Keep Getting Dogs? The Things We Do to Stay Stuck.” In this episode, Corey and Tracy share their thoughts and ideas about how changing your circumstances and/or your mindset can help you get unstuck. Hear about Corey’s new strategies for grading and Tracy’s journey away from wanting to chew her arm off and run when she feels trapped. Both talk about the power of seeking clarity and the importance of manifesting the feelings you want as ways to productively transition out of stuckness. If you are feeling stuck or have ever felt that way, this episode is for you!
S10. Episode 2: Why We Stay Stuck: Maybe it’s fear of failure or being dreamless, or fear of judgment or losing something . . . or perhaps it’s self-limiting beliefs or feeling overwhelmed by change. Regardless, we find ways to stay stuck. Some are real, and some are imagined. Some are external, and some are self-inflicted. Some hold us back from our dreams, and some keep us from leaving good situations only to become stuck in worse ones. Tracy discusses why, despite it being a dream of hers, going to med school at her age would make her stuck – a schedule she wouldn’t like, debt, and having to work longer to pay back loans, whereas Corey points out that sometimes being stuck for a short time, like when she took her job as a junior professor, can result in even better outcomes in the long-term, like getting promoted and earning tenure. Both agreed that you have to weigh the costs. Don’t try to unstick yourself to become even more stuck! But, don’t avoid getting unstuck just because you are fearful or hesitant of what the future could be!
S10. Episode 3: Contending with the “Shoulds”: This episode might be more aptly called “Don’t Should on Me!” . . . even if only to make Tracy laugh. Listen in as we explore the many “shoulds” that impact stuckness. Whether they are based on logic, ego preservation, fear disguised as intuition, regret, or the idea that things “could” be worse, shoulds come in all forms – internal chatter, societal expectations, others’ opinions, trauma, comparison, and even unfinished past life business. Tune in for some great insight mixed with scintillating stories, like Corey’s recurring nightmare of accidentally quitting her job or Tracy’s past life trauma that gets in the way of her writing and publishing a book. And, if that isn’t enough, you can at least learn about cotton balls and orange juice. Intrigued? Then, you “should” definitely listen.
S1o. Episode 4: Reflecting on Stuckness with Nadine Corella: Join us as we talk with Nadine Corella, founder of the Facebook group, Lesbians of Arizona, and winner of the 2022 Dinah Shore DJ Contest. Nadine shares her story of working through the healing process after heartbreak – moving from a state of just trying to get up each day to engaging in self-reflection to helping others with their healing processes. Hear about the strategies she used to get unstuck from heartbreak, including using ChatGPT to deepen her understanding of herself. While Nadine shares what helped her get unstuck, it took a while for her to learn that the only person that can give you closure is you. Far more profound than Corey’s learning that love crystals don’t work for her to unstick herself from heartbreak, and talking to a tree seemed to go nowhere for Tracy. Tune in for great tips and inspiration if you feel like you are stuck in the healing process from a breakup!
S10. Episode 5: Getting Clarity: Trying to find clarity around a big decision? Want to feel confident in your choice? Tune in to hear Corey and Tracy discuss strategies like the somatic response to coin flipping, meditation with the Notes app, tapping into intuition, doing a values rank, and identifying feelings over outcomes. Plus, hear about Tracy’s handwriting skills, Corey’s decluttering tips, each of their personal mission statements, and where they both see themselves in two years. If you are looking for some actionable steps to find clarity and ultimately get unstuck, this is the episode for you!
S10. Episode 6: Letting Go: Tune in for this vulnerable take on letting go – from Tracy’s recent romantic heartbreak to Corey’s story of coping with her mom’s death. Both share that you have to feel the feelings and then move on, and that stillness for extended periods of time can keep you in a place of unnecessary suffering. Corey talks about how letting go of the pain of her mom’s death was not her letting go of her mom, and Tracy shares about how harboring guilt only keeps us stuck. They discuss how balanced thinking, Law of Attraction, processing with a therapist, psychic, and/or astrologer, leaning on your friends, helping others, and expressing gratitude have been useful for helping them let go and move forward. This is an episode you won’t want to miss!
S10. Episode 7: Manifesting Getting Unstuck with Cassie Parks: Listen as we chat with one of our favorite manifesting friends ever, Cassie Parks! We cover a lot of ground, from being truthful with ourselves in what we manifest to bridge manifestation and if there is such a thing as competing manifests. Cassie shares about the role of “being,” “choosing,” and “tolerating” in manifesting and how those behaviors influence what we actually end up manifesting. Learn about Tracy’s calling to be a healer, and Corey’s to be a teacher but how these continue to show up in their “being” space in personal relationships. Hear all about Tracy’s wounded deer syndrome, Cassie’s garage door metaphor, and Corey’s future role vetting Tracy’s partners based on how soft their skin appears. In all seriousness, though, the three explore the question of “What are you here on Earth for?” and how to align that answer through manifesting.
S10. Episode 8: High Vibing with Leah Lynn: Tune in to our chat with Leah Lynn, parenting coach, and true high viber, for an honest conversation about elevating our vibrations to secure clarity and attract the relationships we want. We talk about readiness to heal, butterfly struggles, setting intentions, and forgiveness, along with co-dependency, breadcrumbing, and patterns. Tracy discusses the notion of hyper-independence, and Corey shares how trying to “transform” someone else is not always a welcome gift. If you are looking for ways to enhance your vibrations to move from being stuck in the same patterns to exploring higher levels of alignment, check out this episode!
S10. Episode 9: Building Resilience: What do you do if getting unstuck doesn’t pan out like you planned? You either end up staying stuck or the outcome is worse than you imagined? Listen as Corey and Tracy talk about ways to be resilient after a setback, such as realistically anticipating the struggle ahead, keeping things in context, widening your heart, and leaning on others. Corey shares about tackling a tricky climb during her latest rock climbing endeavor, while Tracy discusses having been convinced multiple times to “not burn it all down” after a horrible breakup. All in all, they both agree that they grew up feeling a lot like the kid’s inflatable bottom-weighted “punching” bag from their childhood, in that getting up after a setback was not an option; you just pop right back. But, how they pop right back is very different – Tracy with her all-in, head-first approach and Corey with her recalibrate and reset approach. So, whatever works best for you, go with it!
S10. Episode 10: Avoiding Stuckness: While Tracy is more prone to saw her arm off if she feels impending stuckness, whereas Corey is more likely to develop an upleveled version of plan B, both believe that getting stuck, in many cases, can be prevented. They stress having strong support systems, coping mechanisms, authentic self-reflection, and not entering into contracts, agreements, or situations likely to get you stuck. Learn about the friction audit, coined by Dr. Adam Alter, Tracy’s love for the show, Royal Pains, and Corey’s feelings about naysayers. If this isn’t intriguing enough, stick around to hear Tracy’s compelling story about “being the gum on someone’s shoe.”
