   Who Am I Now? Rebuilding Your Identity After Leaving LDS Church with Audra Phelps

   Who are you when the beliefs, community and relationships that once shaped your identity are no longer part of your life? In this episode, I’m joined by Audra Phelps, founder of Mama Audra, for an open and deeply honest conversation about leaving the LDS Church and discovering who she was beyond the identity she had been given. Audra shares the grief, loneliness and loss that followed her decision, including losing people she believed would always remain in her life. We explore faith, motherhood, mum guilt, changing relationships and what it takes to rebuild your identity when choosing what feels true for you comes at a deeply personal cost.

   What Story Are You Telling Yourself? with Jay Waddell

   Healing begins the moment you choose yourself. What story have you been telling yourself… and is it time to rewrite it? In this episode of Rise Up and Heal, I sit down with speaker, author, storyteller, and dog walker Jay Waddell from Colorado. Drawing from both lived experience and professional expertise, Jay shares his inspiring journey of rewiring his brain, building resilience, and discovering that healing begins when we choose to challenge the stories that have shaped our lives. Together, we explore how our thoughts influence our reality, why resilience is something we can develop, and how rewriting our inner narrative can open the door to hope, growth, and lasting change. This conversation is a reminder that our past may explain us, but it doesn’t have to define us. Jay offers practical wisdom and heartfelt insights that encourage us to see ourselves with greater compassion and recognise that we all have the capacity to create a different future. If you’ve ever felt stuck in old patterns, questioned your self-worth, or wondered whether change is truly possible, this episode will remind you that healing isn’t about becoming someone new. It’s about remembering who you’ve always been beneath the stories you’ve carried. Jay is currently working on a collaborative book that will feature stories of resilience, healing, and transformation from people around the world. If you’ve overcome adversity and feel called to share your story, he’d love to hear from you.

   Happiness Is a Choice We Can Learn. Speaking with Frank Clayton on Resilience and Healing

   Healing begins the moment you choose yourself. In this episode of Rise Up and Heal, I sit down with Frank Clayton, licensed mental health therapist, speaker, creator of the Happiness 101 course, and author of the children’s book Positives. Known as The Happiest Therapist, Frank shares the remarkable journey that led him from a childhood marked by addiction, abandonment, and adversity to a life dedicated to helping others build resilience, optimism, and lasting happiness. Together, we explore the power of positive psychology, the stories we tell ourselves, and how healing isn’t about pretending life is perfect. It’s about learning new ways to respond, grow, and create a life filled with greater purpose and joy. This conversation is a reminder that while we can’t always choose what happens to us, we can choose how we move forward. Frank offers practical insights into resilience, emotional wellbeing, and the everyday habits that support a happier, more fulfilling life. If you’re ready to move beyond survival and start creating a life that reflects who you truly are, this episode will leave you feeling encouraged, empowered, and inspired.
