S23E3: Commonly Misused Psychology Words and What to Use Instead
19 JUL 2024 · Hey lady! Have you ever been gaslit and traumatized by a toxic, narcissistic so-and-so who abused your trust, violated your boundaries, and caused you to doubt yourself? Does that sentence trigger you? Well, if it does then tune in to this week’s episode so Dr. Dom and Terri can help take the sting out of those words and give you the context around what certain terms mean so you can accurately assess and process events in your life.
The Internet is a wonderful tool, but certain words and phrases can catch on and become buzzy and slowly their meaning can become distorted. This week, Terri and Dr. Dom identify terms that are trendy and provide accurate definitions and examples so that you don’t confuse lovebombing with something more benign. And, if you want to dive deeper into some of these concepts check out these previous episodes:

S23E1: Trauma Bonding: Protecting Yourself From Unhealthy Relationships
5 JUL 2024 · Hey lady! This week, Dr. Dom and Terri step in their bag and talk about the tender topic of trauma bonding and why it can cause serious harm to you if you let it go unchecked. What is trauma bonding? Social media has a way of amplifying new trends and concepts, but sometimes those new concepts are buzzy but inaccurate. Dr. Dom and Terri delve into what trauma bonding actually is so that you have a framework of how to navigate situations where the potential for harm is high. Break out your Cultivating H.E.R. Space journal, located in the Cultivating H.E.R. Space shop, and create a safe space for you to identify the areas where you can heal so that those who aim to trauma bond with you have nowhere to hook into you. And, remember take care and go at a pace that feels supportive while you listen – we love you, lady!

1. Embrace New Experiences
"Never have I ever" moments often highlight things we've never tried. Step out of your comfort zones and try new activities.
Lesson: Life is enriched by new experiences. Don’t be afraid to try something new, even if it seems daunting at first.
2. Learn from Missed Opportunities

Lesson: Understanding the reasons behind your "never" moments can provide insight and help you overcome barriers in the future.
3. Value of Shared Experiences
Sharing “Never Have I Ever” stories can foster connections and understanding. It can be surprising to see how much you have in common with others.
Lesson: Shared experiences, even those you haven't had yet, can bring people together and create a sense of community.
4. Growth Through Challenges
Identify times when trying something new led to personal growth or overcoming a challenge.
Lesson: Challenging yourself to try new things, even if they’re outside your comfort zone, can lead to significant personal growth.
5. Appreciate Individual Journeys
Everyone's list of "Never Have I Ever" will be different. Appreciate and respect each person's unique journey.
Lesson: Everyone’s life path is unique, and that's what makes our stories rich and diverse.
6. Reflect on the Past, Plan for the Future
Reflect on things you’ve never done and consider making a list of things you’d like to try in the future.
Lesson: Reflecting on the past can help set meaningful goals for the future.
