Naailah Auladin is a Carnal Revivalist. She specializes in human sexuality and its relationship to an overall holistic life balance. We understand the importance of a good night's sleep, a balanced diet and an exercise routine have on our energy level, our emotions and physical form. Our sexuality is also connected and influences us in similar ways, yet we often neglect to include this topic in our self care. Naailah brings back the awareness on the topic. Her aim is to bridge the gap between sexual taboos and the over sexualization. Her work is centered on teaching individuals about having a balanced sexuality which is linked directly and indirectly to our emotional intelligence, our ability to change, our ability to create healthy boundaries in both a sexual and non sexual context, amongst others. Hence the concept of a sexuality as part of a holistic life balance. Naailah's work focuses on the three main aspects of our sexuality, energy, psychology/emotions and physical form. Naailah works with both men and women one on one and/or ingroup settings depending of the type of work required.

Laura Christine (LC) had such an empowering journey through leaving a toxic marriage that she created her own podcast--The Boundless Heart--to teach women how to set boundaries, claim their power, and create equal partnerships. Not recognizing the red flags, she got married and succumbed to the wants of her husband, abandoning her own desires and even values. Thinking that she could "make him see" how wonderful life could be, she stayed in her toxic, emotionally manipulative marriage until one day she woke up to a strong realization. She finally understood that she deserved better treatment, and that no matter how much she worked on herself and tried to "show him" a better way, things were never going to change. It was time to leave. It was scary, she wasn't ready, she didn't know what life would look like after leaving -- but she took the leap. Now LC is the happiest she has ever been, and she has turned her experience into a guiding force for all women to put themselves, their pleasure, and their values first.

In 2015, I quit drinking, and  my life began changing dramatically and rapidly, all for the better. I  wrote my first book about my experience getting sober, and the methods I  developed in order to do so. This book is  "Alcoholics Not Anonymous." While seeking out substitutes  for alcohol, I rediscovered my love for adventure. I began devouring  sailing nonfiction books. I used the money I saved from my first year of  not drinking to buy a week-long sailing class  . I bought my first sailboat later that year, Sobrius, in St Petersburg, FL, and sailed her alone to the Dry Tortugas, then  Miami, and finally to St Augustine. The trip covered 1000 miles and was  an adventure that I will  never be able to repeat. I wrote about this experience, in my second  book, "Becoming a Sailor." ​ In 2018, I sailed alone to The  Bahamas and spent 2 months exploring the islands and searching for  adventure. I found more than I bargained for, and wrote about this in my  third book, "Journey to the Ragged Islands." ​ In the summer of 2019, I sold  my house, quit my job, gave away or sold all my belongings, and bought a  bigger boat, a 1972 Cartwright 40, Windflower. I bought her in  Massachusetts, worked on her for three months, then sailed her to The  Bahamas, solo. I arrived on New Year's Day and spent four months in The  Bahamas. I wrote about this experience in my book  "Chasing the Nomadic Dream." I've since written two novels, "Dead  Flowers on Wednesday" and "The Gold Box," and a sequel to my first book,  called "The Joy of Living Clean and Sober." ​ My happiness journey started  with the realization that something was missing in my life. Through much  introspection, I determined that I needed to chase the dream of being a  nomadic sailor. I designed a plan to make  this happen, and took the steps in the plan. This is my dream, and I am  living it.

If you've ever lived with or cared for someone with Alzheimer's disease or related dementia, you know the tragic consequences that lie in wait. Understanding what it is truly like for a person to live with brain disease and having the specialized knowledge to navigate the many unpredictable situations that surface on a day to day basis is the first step to coping and managing it for loved-ones and caregivers. It is very possible for people who suffer from brain disease to live meaningful, fulfilled lives with the help of those who are prepared for it. As a society, there is another worldwide crisis that is looming in the near future that will catch us all off guard if we don't plan for it now. The number of people who will develop Alzheimer's disease is projected to double, not only in the United States, but worldwide, in the next few decades if a cure is not found, according to the Alzheimer's Association and the World Health Organization. Currently, the cost of caring for someone with Alzheimer's disease/dementia is not only prohibitively expensive, but very difficult. Many families cannot afford professional care or cannot help care for their loved ones, and these challenges are only bound to get worse, just based on the sheer number of people who will develop it. We need to be proactive vs. reactive in finding solutions to the challenges we face with this disease, as well as be proactive in lowering our risk of developing Alzheimer's disease by implementing lifestyle changes now. Lisa Paglia is filled with incredible information ready to share it and bring awareness to this growing medical illness that won’t disappear if the medical society doesn’t start putting some sound investment in research and development of cures.

Coming from an abusive relationship, Nischa found herself into understanding the many aspects of what a healthy relationship is all about. When I say healthy, that includes also the sexual aspect of it. Sexual dysfunction is prominent in our society. Erectile issues with men and women unable to orgasm because of emotional tension blurring their minds 24/7. It is becoming harder for people to perform in bed because of social media sharing how men or women should look like physically. Now with the addition of pornography, men idealize women to look like the women they see on the sites, expecting perfection from their significant other. This constant idealization creates a disconnect between couples, where women feel m ore insecure about themselves and men unable to perform in the bedroom. This vicious cycle keeps on turning and turning with no end in sight. Nischa Phair provides interesting insight on how she helps her clients overcome these feelings of insecurities through different strategies that most can adopt and feel more connected with their partners. Most important strategy to start experiencing changes is to work on your addiction and seek the help of a therapist to address the problems you face daily. This in itself will allow breaking the link so that vicious cycle can be interrupted. If you start with this, you can experience incredible changes in your life and your relationship --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/happinessjourney/support

How can a young child cope with a narcissistic parent and still thrive? Well, this podcast will show you how. Maria Riegger is the poster child dealing with post traumatic challenges that allowed her to become a better parent to her own child. Becoming a better parent doesn’t mean being lenient and allowing your child to do whatever they want but allowing them to make decision on their own and assuming responsibilities for their outcome. Narcissism is challenging, especially when you are in a relationship with one. There is no way to reason with one. They will do everything in their power to destroy you, bring you down, gaslight you, force you to detach from friends that they can’t control, separate you from your family and the list goes on and on. Focusing on yourself, getting friends, make your own money is what takes away the power of a narcissistic person to lose control over you. As Mari mentioned, observe but do not absorb. You have to observe their behavior to properly take action but do not emotionally absorb the abuse and allow it to hurt you. Many other strategies are offered in this podcast. Definitely a good way to start when dealing with a narcissistic person --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/happinessjourney/support

As an internal conflict resolution expert, Faye Lawand provides tools to work on yourself and deal with past traumatic events that hindered your progress and happiness for several years. Understanding how the minds work, specifically the subconscious mind, we tend to work on relying too much of what is going on around us instead of within us. Bringing back old memories of issues that have not been resolved, we drag the past into the present and forget to be mindful. Understanding that we can’t fix the past but only face the unresolved issues, we fail to work on ourselves and tend to blame everything and everybody else for our pitfalls. Faye provides amazing insights on how to avoid falling in the same trap as many others out there. She lived through many challenges herself leaving her country of Lebanon and avoids the many dangers of an unstable country, filled with conflict and war. She certainly practices what she preaches and I am so glad to have had her in my podcast.

Kristina is a wonderful therapist working with the many out there seeking happiness. Being a therapist myself and author, I love surrounding myself with amazing people promoting happiness, the study of positive psychology. Many wonder if happiness is a feeling or a choice, so this podcast will probably provide you with that answer. Can you stay happy every day? Absolutely not. However, by acknowledging that some days you will be sad or angry or depressed, make sure you accept these days as temporary moments to learn from and move on. Staying too long in these zones can be detrimental to your mental and physical health. Focusing too much on controlling every aspect of your life is what will bring in more disappointments. Learn to let go of things just like Kristina said and accept that some times, you must let the Universe to carry some of that weight off your shoulders. It is ok to be vulnerable at times, as we are all humans after all. Great podcast with a great colleague. Thanks again Kristina Rienzy for joining in the Happiness Journey Podcast.

For someone who have gone very difficult challenges in their lives and have share her own experience being in contact with winged and unwing angels, she shares with our listeners the magic behind the belief. We can’t really predict the many upcoming hurdles we will face in life and how we will address these hurdles but one thing is sure, by ignoring them, you become a part of the problem.
