From my personal and professional experience I know how common and upsetting this type of treatment can be. When you know your body isn't okay, it can be incredibly stressful to not get the proper care you deserve and need. And if you're already feeling exhausted or deflated by poor or insufficient medical care, it can be tough to fight for change. Yet when we learn to pause and then reach beyond what standard medical protocol might provide, we can find the hope and real life solutions we need. Dr. Diana Stafford, a physician and functional medicine practitioner known as the Detox Doc, joins Dr. Carla Marie Manly to unravel some of the hidden causes of common medical and mental health issues as she paves the way to finding true wellness!Topics discussed include gut-brain-immune axis, gut-brain axis, trauma, PTSD, functional medicine, mold toxicity, root-cause medicine, eastern medicine, healing, wellness, fungal infections, candida, environmental medicine, environmental issues, BPA, PFAS, forever chemicals, pesticides, medical care, illness, nervous system support, breathwork, low-toxicity living, nervous system regulation, fight or flight response, freeze response, appease response, fawn response, and healthy solutions.Please note that this episode contains sensitive material; listener discretion is advised.Emergency Assistance Details: If you or someone you know needs immediate support, please call your emergency services.

| 6/12/26 | ![]() Let Go of Perfectionism: SHINE with Self-Worth and Authenticity! | We often believe that we need to be perfect--or at least nearly perfect--to be worthy and lovable. Yet from my experience, the constant striving to look or be perfect can actually erode self-confidence, mental health, and even physical well-being. In fact, I've found that those who make friends with their imperfections--those who strive to achieve a healthy balance between self-acceptance and positive change--tend to fare far better in their relationships, self-love, and overall well-being. Today, we're joined by Erin Pash, CEO and Founder of Pash Company and Ellie Mental Health, who will explore the keys to fostering self-acceptance, authenticity and self-worth!Topics discussed include perfectionism, self-love, acceptance, self-worth, worthiness, toxic comparison, judgement, blame, shame, envy, jealousy, relationships, family, friendships, girlfriends, social media, competition, well-being, mental health, boundaries, personal change, and transformation.Please note that this episode contains sensitive material; listener discretion is advised.Emergency Assistance Details: If you or someone you know needs immediate support, please call your emergency services.

| 5/1/26 | ![]() Getting Strong: Setting Boundaries without Losing Relationships | Are you a naturally nurturing person who finds that acts of loving kindness are being mistaken for invitations to be taken advantage of or manipulated? For many generous souls, the moment they begin setting boundaries, the pushback can feel enormous.This is the painful reality for one mother, whose question forms the focus of this episode: "I finally realized my daughter is manipulating me... I have started saying no. This has made her really angry. She is worse than ever and threatens to cut me off if I do not give her whatever she wants."How do you keep your boundaries without losing your child?In this essential discussion, Dr. Carla Manly is joined by clinician and host Dr. Darcy Sterling to provide expert tips on how to create and maintain strong, healthy boundaries, navigate uncomfortable conflicts, and avoid falling back into old, detrimental patterns.We often think that giving our loved ones everything they want and need is the right thing to do. And this is especially true for those of us who are naturally nurturing and giving. Yet, from my experience, I've found that certain people mistake acts of loving kindness for invitations to take advantage--or even abuse--generous souls. When this occurs, eye-opening moments often help the giver realize they are being used or manipulated. And if strong boundaries are then put in place, the push-back can be enormous. Today, I'm joined by a terrific clinician who will provide tips to help you create and maintain healthy boundaries.Topics discussed include family, friends, children, adult children, parents, parenting, emotional blackmail, boundaries, demands, ultimatums, estrangement, conflict avoidance, tolerance, discomfort, healthy boundary setting, empathy, validation, listening, reinforcement, negative behaviors, people-pleasing, and imperfect love.Sensitive Episode: Please note that this episode contains sensitive material; listener discretion is advised.Emergency Assistance Details: If you or someone you know needs immediate support, please call your emergency services.

Today, I'm joined by a top medical expert, Carrie Levine, who will help us discover key components of HRT (hormone replacement therapy) and so much more. Topics discussed include mental heath, depression, psychotherapy, support, physical health, hormones, HRT, hormone replacement therapy, estrogen, progesterone, progestin, DHEA, HPA Axis, cortisol, stress, stress management, exercise, resistance training, weight training, carbohydrates, protein, testosterone, Women's Health Initiative, menopause, perimenopause, post-menopause, relationships, A1C, blood glucose, sex, and libido.

| 2/13/26 | ![]() The Empowering, Healing Journey of Trauma & PTSD Recovery | Recovering from trauma isn't easy. In fact, it can be a lifetime of work. Yet all too often, I've found that even people suffering from serious trauma, including complex PTSD, expect themselves to heal quickly or without any psychological support. In real life, however, healing from trauma takes time, gentle effort, and perseverance.

Today, I'm joined by a psychotraumatologist and author Ybe Casteleyn, who will guide us into the healing journey of trauma recovery. Topics discussed include trauma, somatic therapy, mindfulness, emotions, feelings, alcoholism, parenting, emotional abuse, physical abuse, trauma self-help, psychological support, criticism, self-development, inner child, and self-compassion.

| 1/9/26 | ![]() From Chaos to Calm: The Secret to Healthy, Confident Parenting at Every Age | As parents, we often expect ourselves to be completely calm – and even perfect – no matter what comes our way. Yet, in real life, it's all too easy to get stressed and reactive when parenting gets challenging. Internal and external demands can become overwhelming and knock us off center--and this can raise big feelings such as disappointment, anger, and self-doubt. So what are the secrets to creating the inner peace that lets us (more often than not) respond to parenting and other life demands with wisdom, calm, and grace? Today, I'm joined by parenting expert and MamaZen co-founder, Irin Rubin, who will help us explore this deeply important topic. Topics discussed include maternal depression, post-partum depression, perinatal depression, co-regulation, mindset, flooding, motherhood, parenting, support, hypnotherapy, CBT, cognitive behavioral therapy, mom rage, self-care, self-awareness, mindfulness, baby showers, community, well-being, and mental health.Please note that this episode may contain sensitive material; listener discretion is advised.Emergency Assistance Note: If you or someone you know needs immediate support, please call your emergency services.

| 1/2/26 | ![]() Create Wildly Magnetic Energy with Four Powerful Tips! | Do you have magnetic energy? Some people seem to have the "it" quality – that indefinable allure that pulls people toward them. Certain experts think it's a matter of pheromones, while others believe it's a mix of physical and psychological qualities that creates the draw.

Today, I'm joined by an amazing transformation coach, Lauren Salaun, who will guide us into the wonderful world of creating vibrant, alluring energy. Topics discussed include secure attachment, values, priorities, rejection, energy, intentionality, masculine energy, feminine energy, Carl Jung, healing work, emotional mastery, self-esteem, comparison, self-expression, self-concept, gratitude, alignment, spirituality, self-concept, authenticity, lighthouse effect, purpose, and genuineness.Please note that this episode may contain sensitive material; listener discretion is advised.Emergency Assistance Note: If you or someone you know needs immediate support, please call your emergency services.
