We’re living in a time where “protect your peace” has become a mantra, and cutting off family is often labeled as healing. But what if that story is incomplete?In this deeply honest solocast, I explore the rise of family estrangement, the viral “no contact” culture, and the uncomfortable questions we’re not asking about loneliness, healing, and emotional resilience.I share my own lived experience with estrangement — including a period of no contact — and what I learned on the other side. This is not about shaming boundaries or glorifying toxic relationships. It’s about nuance, courage, and truth.Because healing isn’t always about walking away. Sometimes, it’s about learning how to stay differently.What you'll get out of this episode… Why not all estrangement is healing — context mattersBoundaries don’t have to mean disappearanceAvoidance and peace are not the same thingWhy healing often requires emotional stamina, not escapeHow relationships can be both triggering and transformativeWatch Oprah’s episode on family estrangement: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cK7EJgILMIk This Episode is Sponsored by Chai TonicsGive the gift of ritual this holiday season with Chai Tonic Holiday Kits — nourishing Ayurvedic superfood chai blends made to bring calm, clarity, and slow-living energy into the new year.

If you’re afraid your story is “too much,” this is the episode you didn’t know you needed. Too raw. Too heavy. Too real.My guest this week, Brielle Cotterman, believed that for years. Until she realized her story—surviving attempted murder and domestic violence—wasn’t a liability. It was her superpower.Today, Brielle is a multi-7-figure publicity expert, President of CEO School, founder of The Influential Leader Agency, and the voice behind some of the world’s most powerful thought leaders. But her journey started with a decision to stop pretending… and start speaking.In this powerful episode, Brielle opens up about her journey surviving attempted murder, navigating the shame of telling her story, and how she now helps clients turn their lived experiences into global movements, bestselling books, and seven-figure brands.What you'll get out of this episode… You don’t have to be “ready”—you just have to be real.Why the story you’re hiding might be the one that inspires millions.Authenticity in branding isn’t about being perfect. It’s about being human.If you want a book deal, speaking tour, or global media features—it starts with one brave share.Media can be a tool to build your brand, not just celebrate it.Thought leadership starts with focus, not being everything to everyone.Connect with Brielle WEB / www.briellecotterman.com Personal Brand Checklist / https://briellecotterman.ac-page.com/checklist IG / www.instagram.com/briellecottermanIG / www.instagram.com/influential_leader_agencyBreathe better with JASPRAs a mama healing from mold toxicity, air quality has become deeply personal for me.

Hey, Brave Soul 💛This one’s personal.In this powerful episode of The Brave Table, I sit down with my very own explant surgeon, Dr. Aditya Sood, and breast implant illness (BII) survivor and advocate, Laura Bowden, for a raw, honest conversation about the shocking truth behind breast implants and what so many women wish they had known sooner.For years, I was chasing answers.

Let’s get into the truth that’s been buried for way too long.What you'll get out of this episode… The real risks of breast implants (that most doctors don’t tell you)Why Breast Implant Illness is still controversial in mainstream medicineHow to know if you might be affectedWhat really happens during explant surgeryWhy getting the capsules out could save your healthHow to reclaim your health, power, and voice if you’ve felt ignored or dismissedAbout Dr Sood & Laura BowdenDr. Aditya Sood is a board-certified plastic surgeon specializing in Breast Implant Illness (BII) explants with over a decade of experience.

Hey loves, this one’s raw. It’s tender. And honestly, it’s been a long time coming.In this solo episode, I’m finally opening up about something I’ve been quietly navigating behind the scenes for years — my explant journey. Yep. Earlier this year, I made the incredibly personal (and powerful) decision to remove my breast implants after over a decade of living in a body that no longer felt like mine.What started as a few random symptoms — fatigue, eczema, rashes, brain fog — turned into a full-on quest to understand what was really going on in my body. From mold toxicity to thyroid issues and being dismissed by doctors over and over… it wasn’t until I started listening to my own body’s whispers that I realized — something deeper needed healing.If you’ve ever struggled with trusting your intuition, healing from something invisible, or feeling like your truth doesn’t fit into the medical mold — this is for you.What you'll get out of this episode… Why I got implants in the first place (and what they meant to me back then)The slow unraveling of my health, the gaslighting, and the “everything looks normal” resultsWhat years of research, expert interviews, and joining online BII communities with 190,000+ women taught meWhat finally gave me the courage to book the explant surgery — and what I wish I knew soonerThe deep spiritual rebirth and reclaiming of my body that followedHow to choose the right explant surgeon and what every woman should know before surgeryCheck out these Facebook Groups to learn more about Breast Implant Illness and join the community:https://www.facebook.com/groups/Healingbreastimplantillnesshttps://www.facebook.com/groups/biiresearchandrecoveryThis Episode Is Sponsored by Health NagFeeling bloated, sluggish, or just off?

And maybe you’ve been doing that too—silently.So today I’m sharing the real tools and rituals that help me stay grounded, how I’ve redefined “productivity” as a founder and mama, and how you can build a life around your brain instead of trying to fix it.

Hey Brave Table fam! This week, I’m switching seats and landing in the hot seat — interviewed by the incredible Suneera Madhani, CEO & founder of Stax Payments and host of the CEO School podcast. We’re flipping the script and going raw, real, and DEEP.We’re talking identity loss, motherhood, burnout, and the journey of unlearning the “good girl” programming. I share parts of my story I haven’t revealed before — including how chasing perfection nearly cost me everything, and how reclaiming my worth required letting go of who I thought I had to be.Suneera and I go there: the grief, the growth, the guilt of choosing ourselves, and why healing in public is one of the bravest things we can do.Grab your chai, find your cozy spot, and come join us in this heartfelt, vulnerable, and oh-so-necessary conversation.What you'll get out of this episode… When “success” starts to feel misalignedThe power of reinventionWhy the hardest seasons teach us the mostSnapping, guilt & the motherhood meltdown cycleRituals to heal our nervous systemWhat it means to be BRAVE in your current chapterConnect with SuneeraWEB / https://suneeramadhani.com/ IG / https://www.instagram.com/suneeramadhani/ Join the Millionaire Founders Club / https://theceoschool.com/millionaire-founders-club PODCAST / https://podcasts.apple.com/hu/podcast/ceo-school/id1525261018 This Episode is Powered by Health NagStruggle to stay hydrated?

Are your boundaries secretly making you lonely?In this solo episode of The Brave Table, I’m breaking down the dark side of “protecting your peace” — and why our obsession with canceling plans, staying in, and isolating under the guise of “self-care” might actually be harming our mental and emotional health.After living in the UAE for seven months, I saw firsthand how community and shared rituals are the glue that keeps us grounded — and why the Western obsession with radical independence is making us lonelier than ever. This episode is a heartfelt call to reclaim connection, reject fake ingredients (in food and relationships), and build a life — and a village — that truly nourishes you.What you'll get out of this episode… The surprising ways “protecting your peace” may actually deepen your lonelinessThe shocking health consequences of chronic isolationThe powerful community lessons I learned while living in the UAEThe inside story of why I built Chai Tonics, and what it took to make it truly clean and functionalA perspective shift to help you build real connection and intentional ritualsMama, your nervous system deserves a pause.

Anxiety is not just in your head—it’s in your body.In this powerful episode, I sit down with Dr. Ellen Vora, a board-certified psychiatrist, acupuncturist, yoga teacher, and author of The Anatomy of Anxiety. Ellen shares how most of what we call “anxiety” is actually the body’s way of signaling imbalance—whether from blood sugar, sleep, hormones, or unprocessed emotions. Together, we unpack how to distinguish between false anxiety (avoidable and physiological) and true anxiety (aligned with your deeper purpose)—and how to heal from both.This conversation will shift the way you think about mental health, and leave you with tangible tools to reclaim calm, clarity, and balance.What you'll get out of this episode… The hidden link between your blood sugar and your anxiety spikesWhy your gut may be the real cause of brain fog, worry, and panicThe two types of anxiety you need to know about—and how to address them differentlyHow modern habits like scrolling at night are rewiring your nervous systemSimple shifts you can make today to prevent spiraling into stressThe surprising way anxiety might actually guide you to your purposeThis Episode is Powered by Health NagStruggle to stay hydrated?

Let’s talk about the emotional rollercoaster that is the anxious-avoidant relationship dynamic. You know the type—one moment you’re deeply connected, the next you're spiraling in confusion. Sound familiar? In this solo episode, I’m diving into why this frustrating push-pull happens, how it connects to your childhood attachment style, and whether it’s something you can actually fix… or if it’s time to walk away for good.We’ll break down the four types of attachment styles, explore how trauma bonding keeps you stuck in cycles of dysfunction, and uncover the exact steps you need to take to rewire your patterns and build the secure love you deserve. Whether you’re healing from a toxic relationship or trying to understand your own emotional triggers, this is the must-listen episode for you!What you'll get out of this episode… Anxious-avoidant dynamics aren’t about chemistry—they’re about unhealed trauma.Your attachment style forms in childhood and subconsciously shapes your relationships.These dynamics can only shift when both partners commit to inner work.Self-awareness, emotional regulation, and clear communication are non-negotiables.Sometimes, the bravest thing you can do is walk away from a love that isn't safe.You can rewire your attachment style and learn to love from a secure, healed place.Key Timestamps00:00 – Intro01:27 – The anxious-avoidant relationship cycle explained05:30 – Signs you're in an anxious-avoidant relationship07:10 – Why opposites attract: The hidden trauma bonds08:29 – Can this dynamic be fixed… or is it time to walk away?10:16 – The steps to building a secure, healthy relationshipTo receive a free gift, email a screenshot of your 5-star review of The Brave Table to support@globalgrit.co 😘SUBSCRIBE TO MY YOUTUBE CHANNEL HEREFollow along for more tips, community, and resources to brave a better you!IG / @neetabhushan IG / @thebravetable TIKTOK / @neeta.bhushanWEB / https://neetabhushan.comYOUTUBE / @NeetaBhushanWant more?Visit the website and order your copy of “That Sucked, Now What?”  → https://thatsuckednowwhat.com/🌿 Need a boost?

We unpack why women—especially those from immigrant, Asian, or traditional backgrounds—feel stuck in roles that shrink them. We talked about breaking the cycle of perfection, what it really means to sit with pain, and how to be a present parent without losing yourself in the process.So, if you’ve ever felt torn between being the “good girl” and living your wildest truth, or are in the middle of a reinvention season—this episode is calling your name. Pull up a seat, it’s time to get brave!What you'll get out of this episode… The “good girl” archetype is a lie.Pain is not your enemy—it’s the portal to your most awakened self.Conscious parenting isn’t about perfection, it’s about presence.You don’t have to heal before becoming a parent—parenting is the journey of healing.It’s okay if your awakening makes others uncomfortable. Keep rising.Gentle parenting isn’t about coddling—it’s about connection.Let go of legacy expectations (doctor, lawyer, engineer) and step into your soul’s truth.Key Timestamps00:00 – The lie of the “good girl” archetype 06:30 – Breaking generational cycles with in-laws and elders10:00 – How pain becomes the portal to awakening14:30 – The trap of toxic positivity and how to reclaim your true self17:00 – Conscious coaching & transforming your life with Dr. Shefali’s Institute21:15 – Holding space as a mother while healing your inner child27:00 – Gentle parenting vs conscious parenting—what’s the difference?32:00 – How to raise emotionally resilient kids in the digital age33:50 – What to do when you awaken, but others around you don’t36:00 – All about The Conscious Circle community37:00 – Spill the Chai: Guilty pleasures, chai recipes, and brave confessionsTo receive a free gift, email a screenshot of your 5-star review of The Brave Table to support@globalgrit.co 😘SUBSCRIBE TO MY YOUTUBE CHANNEL HEREFollow along for more tips, community, and resources to brave a better you!IG / @neetabhushan IG / @thebravetable TIKTOK / @neeta.bhushanWEB / https://neetabhushan.comYOUTUBE / @NeetaBhushanConnect with today’s guest, Dr Shefali TsabaryIG / @doctorshefaliWEB / https://www.drshefali.com/ WEB / https://coaching.drshefali.com/ YOUTUBE / @doctorshefaliLearn more about The Conscious Circle / https://www.theconsciousparent.com/consciouscircle Want more?Visit the website and order your copy of “That Sucked, Now What?”  → https://thatsuckednowwhat.com/🌿 Need a boost?

All right, loves, welcome back to The Brave Table! It’s March, the month of new beginnings, rebirth, and, let’s be real—shaking things the hell up. Today, I’m asking you a question that might just crack open a part of you that’s been waiting to be set free: What’s alive for you? And what’s burning for you?We are diving deep into the art of release—letting go of the outdated, overworked, hustle-obsessed version of ourselves and stepping into something softer, more intuitive, more… feminine. Yep, we’re flipping the script on leadership, success, and how we navigate life’s biggest transitions. And loves, I’m taking you behind the scenes of my own journey—how saying yes to a TEDx talk with just three weeks’ prep rocked my world, how my Ayurvedic healing and biohacking obsession as a mama is expanding, and why I’m finally embracing a slower, more spacious way of being.If you’ve been feeling stuck, if you’re craving a shift but don’t know where to start, or if you just need permission to pause—this episode is for you. So, grab your chai (or matcha, I won’t judge), settle in, and let’s get into it.What you'll get out of this episode… Self-check-ins are essential for growth and transformation.True leadership comes from trust, intuition, and softness—not doing more.Feeling stuck means growth is coming.Releasing the old is necessary for stepping into a new version of yourself.Learning to ask for help isn’t weakness—it’s an act of bravery and self-awareness.To receive a free gift, email a screenshot of your 5-star review of The Brave Table to support@globalgrit.co 😘Follow along for more tips, community, and resources to brave a better you!IG / @neetabhushan IG / @thebravetable TIKTOK / @neeta.bhushanWEB / https://neetabhushan.comYOUTUBE / @NeetaBhushanOfficialWant more?Watch my Tedx Talk here → The Art of Slowing DownJoin the Chai Sip & Soothe Calendar  → Find your Calendar hereVisit the website and order your copy of “That Sucked, Now What?”  → https://thatsuckednowwhat.com/Take just 2 minutes and find what YOUR emotional type is by taking  my FREE quiz here →  theemotionalreset.com/quizFor a weekly dose of my hacks, tools, & tips to emotionally reset, join my newsletter here → yourweeklyreset.comIf you loved this episode, check out…Ep.#196: The Secrets to Stepping Into Your Soft Girl Era Revealed with Simran Handa  (Apple | Spotify | YouTube)Ep.#224: How Balancing Masculine and Feminine Energies Can Revolutionize Society with Teal Swan  (Apple | Spotify | YouTube)Ep.#249: How to Activate the Sacred Feminine in You with Sarah Jenks  (Apple | Spotify | YouTube)Dr. Neeta Bhushan is a 5x Award Winning Author & world-renowned emotional health advocate & human connection expert.

Alright, Brave Table fam — buckle up, because today we are cutting through the wellness noise and getting straight to the juicy truth about your health. I’m sitting down with my girl Dr. Chiti Parikh, and this is the episode your doctor probably doesn’t want you to hear. We’re talking why your green smoothie obsession might actually be bloating you, how your stress, your schedule, and even your thoughts are literally toxifying your body, and why you NEED to detox (but not in the bougie spa way — think ancient science meets modern life).Dr. Chiti’s got degrees for days — MD, functional medicine, Ayurveda, acupuncture — but what I love most? She’s not about that elitist wellness vibe. Her clinic at Cornell is insurance-based (yes, you read that right — real integrative care that regular people can actually afford). She’s here to shake up the system and show us how to brave our health — with intention. If you’re tired, inflamed, bloated, or just straight-up confused by all the health noise, this one’s for you.What you'll get out of this episode… Meal timing, or chrono-nutrition, could matter more to your health than what you eat.Detoxing isn’t a luxury — it’s giving your body space to heal.Everyday toxins — from shampoo to containers — quietly harm your health.Women need unique fasting rules — hormones change everything.Own your health — ask better questions and treat the root.To receive a free gift, email a screenshot of your 5-star review of The Brave Table to support@globalgrit.co 😘Follow along for more tips, community, and resources to brave a better you!IG / @neetabhushan IG / @thebravetable TIKTOK / @neeta.bhushanWEB / https://neetabhushan.comYOUTUBE / @NeetaBhushanOfficialConnect with today’s guest, Chiti ParikhIG /  @intentionalhealth_Intentional Health Book → Amazon linkWant more?Visit the website and order your copy of “That Sucked, Now What?”  → https://thatsuckednowwhat.com/Take just 2 minutes and find what YOUR emotional type is by taking  my FREE quiz here →  theemotionalreset.com/quizFor a weekly dose of my hacks, tools, & tips to emotionally reset, join my newsletter here → yourweeklyreset.comIf you loved this episode, check out…Ep.# 286: Are Your Lifestyle Habits Slowly Killing You?

From uprooting my entire family across the world to hitting the deepest level of fatigue post-book launch, I had to find a way to recharge my nervous system—without another meditation or journaling exercise. And guess what? I did. Today, I’m sharing the underrated, ancient, and completely life-changing wellness hacks that restored my energy, deepened my sleep, and helped me show up for my family and my business—without burning out. Get ready for some real talk, some science-backed remedies, and maybe even a little TMI (because, well, detoxing is REAL). Let’s dive in!What you'll get out of this episode…  Your nervous system rules everything. Constant stress leads to burnout. Castor oil is a powerhouse for detox, gut health, and sleep. Magnesium fuels stress relief and hormone balance. Getting enough? Virechana, an Ayurvedic cleanse, clears toxins, parasites, and stagnation. Mamas, reclaim your energy—prioritize your nervous system and real rest.To receive a free gift, email a screenshot of your 5-star review of The Brave Table to support@globalgrit.co 😘Follow along for more tips, community, and resources to brave a better you!IG / @neetabhushan IG / @thebravetable TIKTOK / @neeta.bhushanWEB / https://neetabhushan.comYOUTUBE / @NeetaBhushanOfficialWant more?Grab my favourite Castor oil and get 10% discount by using NEETA10 → Aste WellnessGet 15% off your first order of Loom Superfoods!

Alright, Brave Table fam—buckle up, because today’s episode is a special one! I am sitting down with my baby brother, Vinay, who has completely transformed his life and his morning ritual—by giving up caffeine (gasp, I know!). From chugging five to six cups of coffee a day to developing Loom Superfoods, a caffeine-free powerhouse drink loaded with Mayan nut, adaptogens, and protein, Vinay’s journey is nothing short of inspiring.But this episode isn’t just about coffee—it’s about answering the call when your health (and intuition) nudges you to pivot. We talk about breaking bad habits, braving change, and why so many people stay stuck in comfort zones instead of leaping into their true potential. Oh, and we’re spilling all the tea (or should I say, Loom) on why most coffee drinkers are unknowingly wrecking their sleep, gut health, and energy levels.So if you’ve ever thought about cutting back on caffeine (or just making bold moves in your life and business), this one’s for you.What you'll get out of this episode… Caffeine disrupts gut, energy, and sleep cycles.Growth comes from discomfort—Vinay moved cities to avoid stagnation.Health is wealth—Vinay's high blood pressure at 30 was his wake-up call.Big problems fuel big solutions—Vinay turned caffeine struggles into a business.To pivot, ignore the noise, embrace uncertainty, and go for it.TIMESTAMPS[00:00:00] Intro: My Brother’s Wild Health Journey[00:03:00] Affirmation of the Day: “I Am Brave Enough to Suck at New Things”[00:06:00] The Moment Vinay Knew He Needed to Change His Life[00:12:00] Drinking 6 Cups of Coffee a Day: What It Did to His Body[00:19:00] Braving a Career Pivot: From Real Estate to Superfoods[00:24:00] Discovering the Mayan Nut & Creating a Coffee Alternative[00:29:00] How Caffeine Affects Sleep, Anxiety & Blood Pressure[00:34:00] Why Loom Superfoods is the Ultimate Coffee Replacement[00:39:00] The Reality of Entrepreneurship & Handling Naysayers[00:45:00] How Ditching Caffeine Improved His Energy & Mental Clarity[00:47:00] Final Hot Takes: What It Means to Be BraveTo receive a free gift, email a screenshot of your 5-star review of The Brave Table to support@globalgrit.co 😘Follow along for more tips, community, and resources to brave a better you!IG / @neetabhushan IG / @thebravetable TIKTOK / @neeta.bhushanWEB / https://neetabhushan.comYOUTUBE / @NeetaBhushanOfficialConnect with today’s guest, Vinay BhushanIG /  @therealvinaybhushanIG / @luumsuperfoodsWEB / LuumsuperfoodsGet 15% off your first order of Loom Superfoods!

Hey, Brave Table fam! 💥 Buckle up because today, we’re diving deep into friendships, relationships, and the big question: Should friendships be easy? We’ve all heard it—if it’s not effortless, maybe it’s not meant to be, right? WRONG. In a time where we’re more “connected” than ever yet lonelier than before, we need to redefine what real friendships look like and question whether we’re truly investing in our people. I’m sharing the science of lifelong friendships, the reality of evolving relationships, and why deep, messy, and even conflicted friendships are the ones that stand the test of time. We’re also peeling back the layers of business besties vs. real besties—because let’s be honest, not everyone clapping for you online is showing up for you in real life.So grab your coffee, matcha, or green juice, and let’s get BRAVE about friendships, real human connection, and building a sisterhood that actually lasts.What you'll get out of this episode… Friendships that last over 7 years are more likely to be lifelong.The loneliness epidemic is real, even in a hyper-connected world.Making friends as an adult is different—proximity and shared experiences matter.Conflict in friendships is NOT a red flag—it’s a sign of depth.Online friends vs. real-life friends—are we confusing the two?Business besties ≠ real besties—if they wouldn’t show up for you in a crisis, rethink their place in your life.The “expiration date” on friendships—when to hold on and when to let go.TIMESTAMPS00:00 - Welcome to The Brave Table01:30 - Should friendships be easy?03:45 - The shocking truth about long-term friendships06:20 - The loneliness epidemic & why connection feels harder today08:50 - Moving abroad & redefining friendships10:45 - Childhood vs. adult friendships—why they feel different12:30 - College years: The last time friendships felt effortless?15:20 - Making friends as an adult—what’s changed?18:00 - Are your online friendships real?

Hey, Brave Table fam! 🌟 Buckle up, because today we’re diving deep into one of my favorite topics: intuition. That inner knowing that whispers, screams, and sometimes throws bricks at us to get our attention. Have you ever ignored a nudge from the universe only to find yourself knee-deep in regret? Or maybe you listened, and your life transformed in ways you couldn’t imagine. In this episode, I share raw, personal stories—about everything from leaving toxic relationships to trusting those “breadcrumbs” of opportunity that led me across countries and into new chapters of abundance. We’re talking about manifesting your dream life by tuning into your gut, saying yes to uncertainty, and creating spiritual practices that nourish your soul. Plus, I spill all the tea on how energy and intuition are your secret superpowers for leveling up. Let’s get brave together! 💪✨ What you'll get out of this episode…  Your intuition is your superpower—it’s time to trust it and take action. Manifestation begins with envisioning, feeling, and staying open to signs. Kids are natural intuitives; watch and learn from their raw instincts. Building a spiritual practice doesn’t have to be dogmatic—it’s your sacred time with yourself. The universe aligns opportunities with your frequency, whether it’s abundance or lack.

Hey, Brave Table fam! 💕 Are you ready to unpack the emotional luggage you’ve been hauling around all year? In this episode, I’m diving into something so many of us struggle with: healing the inner child within us. Whether it’s the little girl or boy who felt unseen, unheard, or just plain overwhelmed, we’re talking about how to reparent, nurture, and love that part of yourself so you can step into your next evolution. The holidays have this magical (and let’s be real, sometimes triggering) way of bringing up all the feels. From family dynamics to unmet childhood needs, we’ll explore how to pause, reflect, and pour back into YOU. Let’s get into those juicy tools for reparenting, healing, and turning those holiday triggers into empowering transformations. What you'll get out of this episode…  Inner child work is about reparenting yourself, not reliving the past. Holiday triggers may invite healing unmet childhood needs. Simple practices like journaling, setting an altar, or reframing thoughts can shift old patterns. Family dynamics don’t define you. You can meet them with love, grace, and zero expectations. Healing is a full-circle journey—whether you’re a parent or reparenting yourself. TIMESTAMPS [00:00:00] Welcome to The Brave Table – Why healing your inner child matters [00:02:00] Affirmation of the day: “I am worthy of wonderful things…” [00:04:00] Why the holidays trigger old wounds [00:06:00] Little Neeta’s story: Lessons from childhood [00:09:00] Reparenting your inner child: Practical tools and rituals [00:12:00] Facing family triggers with love and grace [00:15:00] Reframing memories and rewriting the narrative [00:18:00] A powerful pause: Recognizing your reactions and trauma responses [00:20:00] Closing reflections and next steps for healing To receive a free gift, email a screenshot of your 5-star review of The Brave Table to support@globalgrit.co 😘 Follow along for more tips, community, and resources to brave a better you!

Have you ever wondered if men and women can truly have platonic friendships—free from romantic tension? Or felt the pressure to abandon opposite-sex friendships in the name of a relationship? In this sizzling, soul-stirring episode of The Brave Table, I sit down with my two favorite brother besties—Himanshu Jocker, founder of Epic Businesses in Jaipur, India, and Erwin B. Valencia, a former mental health coach for the NBA and founder of the Gratitude Gang Foundation in the Philippines. Together, we dive into how opposite-sex friendships can enrich your life, your romantic relationships, and your personal growth. We discuss setting boundaries, navigating jealousy, and even the dynamics of “friend-zoning.” This is a must-listen if you’ve ever struggled to maintain balance between friendship and romance or wondered how to nurture healthy, meaningful relationships across the gender spectrum. 💡 Spoiler alert: You’ll leave with a renewed perspective on cultivating deep, authentic connections. What you'll get out of this episode…  Opposite-sex friendships enhance emotional growth, understanding, and life balance. Clear boundaries prevent misinterpretation in friendships.

Hey Brave Table fam! Today, we’re diving into a topic so many of us wrestle with — rest! Why is it that we feel guilty when we take time for ourselves? Why does resting sometimes make us feel lazy or unproductive? Growing up in a household where rest was synonymous with "not enough," I get it. In this episode, I share my personal journey with redefining rest, unpacking those old narratives, and learning to truly savor the slow. I also reflect on insights from Dr. Avanti Singh, who reminds us of the dangers of constantly "pushing" — especially around the holidays when the pressure to "do it all" can feel overwhelming. So let's get comfortable, release the guilt, and step into a mindset where rest is not just okay — it’s necessary. Let’s explore this together and make peace with rest as part of our growth. What you'll get out of this episode…  Rest is an essential part of productivity, creativity, and well-being.

Welcome back to The Brave Table, lovelies! Today’s episode is for anyone who’s ever felt the sting of a friendship breakup or the pull to step into a new version of themselves while navigating the complexities of relationships. I’m joined by none other than my beautiful friend, Simone Heng, author of Let's Talk About Loneliness and The Secret Pandemic. Simone is a human connection specialist, a former international broadcaster, and a powerhouse speaker. Together, we dive deep into the often-untold story of friendship breakups, how boundaries change everything after 40, and why true connection is the ultimate antidote to loneliness. If you’ve ever wondered if your relationships are in alignment or felt the pull to honor your boundaries unapologetically, this episode is for YOU! Get cozy, grab your tea (or wine!), and let's be brave together. What you'll get out of this episode…  As you age, you'll care less about others' opinions and confidently honor your boundaries. Friendship breakups are painful but open the door to more aligned connections. True connection conquers loneliness, thriving in deep, authentic relationships over superficial ones. Cultural differences shape us, but connection is universally vital. Healing begins with awareness of your needs and boundaries, whether in family, friendships, or personal growth.

Hey loves, welcome back to The Brave Table! Today, we’re dismantling a major myth in the world of personal growth – the ‘good vibes only’ mentality. While it’s great to stay positive, I’m here to remind you that we need to feel ALL of our emotions to truly grow. In this episode, we’re diving deep into the concept of emotional contrast. Yes, you can feel sadness, rage, grief, AND joy at the same time – and that’s beautiful! I’ll also be sharing how to navigate the darker emotions that most of us tend to avoid, why they are just as important as the light, and how to transmute them in a healthy way. Get ready for some juicy tools to work through your anger, feel your grief, and embrace your full range of emotions – all while still celebrating life’s joy. If you're someone who’s tired of the toxic positivity trap, this one’s for you! What you'll get out of this episode…  Embrace your darker emotions to grow, transforming grief, anger, and sadness into peace and joy. Setting time to feel and release your emotions through journaling, dancing, or screaming is powerful. Your body stores emotions in specific organs Joy requires sadness; resilience comes from embracing both. Embrace the paradox—it's okay to laugh and cry at once!

Hey, Brave Table fam! You are in for an incredible episode today as I sit down with the one and only Kristina Mand-Lakhiani, co-founder of Mindvalley and author of Flawsome. We dive deep into her journey of turning imperfections into superpowers, uncovering the societal pressure to be flawless, and how she has consciously navigated motherhood, business, and relationships while embracing her flaws. Kristina gets real about perfectionism, conscious uncoupling, and the truth behind finding your authentic self. This episode will inspire you to embrace every part of yourself, imperfections and all. So, get cozy, grab your favorite drink, and let's get Flawsome! What you'll get out of this episode…  Flaws and imperfections are not things to be fixed; they can be transformed into your greatest strengths. Perfectionism is a societal construct that often limits our ability to embrace our authentic selves. Navigating relationships, particularly in business and personal life, requires a balance of boundaries, compassion, and honesty. Being a mother doesn't mean losing yourself; it’s about embracing the complexities and imperfections of motherhood. Authenticity isn’t just a one-time decision; it’s a lifelong practice of aligning with your truth, even when it's uncomfortable.

Hey, Brave Table fam! In this deeply reflective and raw episode, I dive into the messy, beautiful, and often chaotic process of healing generational patterns and breaking free from the addiction to busyness and drama. We talk about the moments when we realize that we’ve been carrying the weight of old narratives, the times we’ve attracted relationships that mirror our chaos, and how to rewrite those stories. I share my personal journey of revisiting my family home in Chicago, confronting old patterns, and balancing motherhood, entrepreneurship, and caretaking for aging elders. This episode is all about reclaiming your peace, rejecting the hustle for validation, and stepping into your truth as the author of your own life. Let's get real and dive deep! What you'll get out of this episode…  Breaking the addiction to chaos by recognising the unconscious patterns from our past Visiting family can reawaken old dynamics, it's a chance to reflect and choose a new path We often mistake busyness for worth, but true value comes from alignment, not hustle.

Hey Brave Table fam! In today’s episode, we discuss the controversial dangers of seeking external validation – speaking from personal experiences and societal observations. Reflecting on my journey of self-marriage in Bali (read as: my Eat, Pray, Love moment), I learned the importance of prioritizing self-love. From the impact of social media detox to the pitfalls of chasing external validation, I explore the significance of setting boundaries and valuing our worth. We explore how to truly embrace authenticity and self-love, and how to prioritize our well-being over societal pressures. What you’ll get from this episode… Learning about the concept of higher energy and manifesting abundance, contrasting it with scarcity mentality How cultivating a mindset of abundance, rooted in self-love and worthiness, can lead to manifesting positive outcomes in life How taking breaks from social media can lead to heightened awareness of the present moment and deeper connections with oneself and others That true self-love eliminates the need for external validation – when individuals genuinely love themselves, they no longer rely on others to affirm their worth and value.

188: How to Embrace Change & Commit to a New YOU in 2024 with Alyssa Nobriga Quote: “Really understanding why people don’t change happens to be in the unconscious, so a lot of people think they need more willpower, they need to push harder, but it's really about getting out of our own way.

You set fantastic intentions to be a better, stronger you. But instead, you end up subconsciously self-sabotaging yourself.

Quote: “Resilience is not always a glamorous badge of honor." Summary: Hey, loves! Welcome to a special replay episode of The Brave Table, where we're excited to revisit and share an inspiring episode from the Filipinas On The Rise podcast hosted by the incredible Krystl Fabela. Today's replay features empowering stories, insightful conversations on often overlooked topics of generational trauma, specifically within the context of being a child of Filipino immigrants, and a celebration of the strength and resilience of Filipina women.   In this episode, we talk about… Generational trauma and the importance of acknowledging and addressing this within the Filipino diaspora What it truly means to live life on our own terms regardless of cultural background How coming from a bi-racial background has paved my path in terms of life and relationships Resilience as a double-edged sword as a Filipina woman born from immigrant parents      BioKrystl is a Founder, Podcaster, Speaker and Producer with a passion for storytelling, tackling cultural “taboo” topics and for arts-activism for socio-economic justice. She was born in the Philippines and at a young age, immigrated to Canada and eventually to Southern California, identifying as a 1.5th Generation Immigrant. Growing up, she always noticed the lack of Filipino women representation in different industries: from media, to finance, tech, as well as their missing education: on their history, contributions, and their multifaceted narratives. While doing my undergrad at UC San Diego, she became involved in activism after facing a sexual violence and began to fight for policy reform and justice for other survivors. This kicked off her love for advocacy and people’s movements. After college, she followed her curiosity around innovation and tech and moved to San Francisco, leading engineering recruiting for several tech companies. She still noticed a lack of diverse representation, and was inspired to begin a Podcast that spotlighted Filipino who were at the top of their fields, and how they got there. Filipina on the Rise began and more importantly, a global movement of elevating Filipino women around the world.

172: Healing Masculinity, Sexual Liberation, and Family Reconciliation with Tantra from VICE star Shaft Uddin Quote: “There is so little education around sexual wellness, sexual education. No one really knows how to say no when it comes to... some kind of intimacy; but also, no one really knows how to say yes.” – Shaft Uddin Summary: I met our next guest, Shaft Uddin, at a global event. He had so much "taboo" sacred sexuality knowledge to share during our juicy chat. You see…Shaft is a tantra practitioner and healer. During our conversation, he introduces some eye-opening topics. So, this episode definitely is NSFK (not safe for kids) or NSFW (not safe for work).  We'll touch on everything from sexual healing and liberation to making peace with family and embracing masculinity through appreciation of the feminine. Shaft even explains why understanding and healing our bodies, particularly through sacred sexuality, is so crucial. And, of course, he gets personal and tells ALL about his own journey. In this episode we talk about… Struggling with his masculinity as a result of a challenging relationship with his father. Reconciliation with his parents and facilitating healing for himself, his father, and the entire family unit. What is sacred sexuality, and how do we reclaim it in our lives and in our relationships. The fundamentals of tantra and how it relates to sexual liberation, pleasure, and healing. The courage and bravery required to break free from societal norms and judgments in pursuit of one's authentic self.   Bio: As a young adult, Shaft Uddin’s life was one of hedonism and excess. He went from being the son of a working-class immigrant, to being a super-successful Art Director in advertising, working for some of the biggest brands on the planet: A classic rags-to-riches story.   And yet, Shaft was living a double life fuelled by alcohol and drug addiction. He was the picture of success, but beneath the surface he suffered from repeated broken relationships, depression and self-hatred. It wasn’t until Shaft had several near-death experiences and alienated most of his friends, that he realized things had to change.   Intuitively, Shaft turned to alternative therapies, meditation, plant medicines and tantra. In under two years, he was free of my addictions and had learned the power of self-love. Dedicated to helping people reconnect with their hearts and find deeper connections, productivity in the workplace, and more meaningful relationships, Shaft serves as a trauma release therapist, tantric practitioner, coach, and speaker.

166: Getting Emotionally Uncomfortable & Finding Joy in Life's Challenges with Heather Chauvin Quote: “I think a lot of people's physical bodies are dying, but we tell ourselves that we're healthy, or we don't have time, or that we just can't figure it out, or this is the way it is.” – Heather Chauvin   Summary: Heather Chauvin, author, speaker, and advocate for emotional well-being, redefines the concept of courage. Heather has been through it all. Teenage pregnancy. Cancer diagnosis. Career change. But, even through the emotional discomfort of it all, she has embraced life's contrasts. As someone who knows all about grit, Heather definitely has it! This episode is going to challenge you to discover the courage to act on what feels true for you–even when faced with the unknown.    In this episode we talk about… Facing fear and emotional challenges after receiving a cancer diagnosis. Balancing motherhood with prioritizing needs during sudden life changes. Acting on what feels true even with little or no support and inconvenient timing.   Bio: Heather Chauvin is a leadership coach who helps ‘successful’ women courageously and authentically live, work, and parent on their own terms.  Heather started her career as a social worker helping adults understand children’s behavior. But it wasn’t until 2013 when a stage 4 cancer diagnosis pushed her to take a deeper stand for change, uncovering how cultural expectations sabotage our dreams. She has been featured in Forbes, Entrepreneur, Real Simple Magazine, Mind Body Green, Google, and more. When Heather isn’t working, you will find her living out what she teaches which may include kayaking Alaska, snowboarding, hiking, or anything else that challenges what she believes is possible for herself (and inviting her children along the journey). Life is full of opportunities. It’s time to feel alive.   Connect with Heather: Follow her on Instagram @heatherchauvin_. Hang out with her on her podcast and get Emotionally Uncomfortable.
