  • EP303: The Thin Line Between Support and Control

    EP303: The Thin Line Between Support and Control
    Sep 9 2025

    Sometimes what we call “helping” is actually about managing our own anxiety or steering someone else’s choices. In this episode, we explore how love and care can get tangled with control—often without us realizing it. We’ll look at how this shows up in long-term relationships, and how it can sneak in early with new partners or friends through behaviors that feel supportive on the surface but chip away at our independence underneath.

    Together, we’ll unpack the subtle differences between support that strengthens us and control that weakens us. You’ll walk away with practical tools to spot the difference, reflect on your own patterns, and learn what healthier support really looks like—so you can offer it, and recognize it when it’s given to you.

    Takeaways

    1. Why intentions and impact don’t always match when it comes to “helping.”
    2. The subtle signals that distinguish genuine support from hidden control.
    3. How to show up in ways that build trust and independence in any relationship.

    Real support builds trust.

    Control chips away at it.

  • EP302: Spotting Subtle Red Flags: The Behaviors That Slowly Wear You Down

    EP302: Spotting Subtle Red Flags: The Behaviors That Slowly Wear You Down
    Sep 2 2025

    Not all unhealthy relationships announce themselves with yelling, cheating, or dramatic fights. Many of the most damaging ones chip away at us quietly—through subtle behaviors we often brush off or explain away. In this episode, Mary unpacks the small but powerful signs that can leave you feeling drained, doubting yourself, and unsure why something feels “off.”

    You’ll learn why it’s so easy to miss these quiet warning signs, how they impact your confidence and boundaries over time, and what you can begin doing differently. This conversation is about tuning back into your own gut, trusting what you feel, and deciding what belongs in your life—and what doesn’t.

    Three Takeaways

    1. Some of the most harmful relationship patterns are the ones that don’t look obvious at first.

    2. Your body often senses the truth before your mind is willing to admit it.

    3. Paying attention to the “small stuff” is what protects your peace of mind in the long run.

    A healthy person

    listens.

    An unhealthy one

    gets defensive.

    That’s your clue.

  • EP301: Waking People Up with Positivity: Interview with Jimmy Warr-Mize

    EP301: Waking People Up with Positivity: Interview with Jimmy Warr-Mize
    Aug 19 2025
    Today’s guest, Jimmy Warr-Mize, has a story that’s anything but typical. From his early days as a self-described jack-of-all-trades to being featured in Forbes, interviewing celebrities, and representing billion-dollar brands—he’s done the big, shiny things. But what makes Jimmy’s story powerful isn’t just what he’s accomplished. It’s what he’s learned along the way. I found his videos awhile back and just fell in love with his message, but also his vibe. His incredible energy, humor and directness make his “daily reminders” powerful messages to sit with each day. In this conversation, we talk about what happens when success feels empty, the cost of living inauthentically, and why so many people—no matter their title—feel stuck and disconnected from who they really are. Jimmy shares how grief, growth, and truth-telling changed everything for him, and why he’s now on a mission to help others find their way back to themselves. Not everyone’s ready for the deep work— but everyone deserves a message that reminds them it’s possible.
