This conversation picks up right where part one left off, but now we zoom in on Barb’s actual work helping overwhelmed professional women who say yes when they want to say no. She breaks down “internal safety” as the ability to have your own back when someone is upset with you or when that old guilt and negative self-talk shows up, instead of caving or beating yourself up for weeks. Barb drives home that boundaries aren’t about controlling other people, they’re about deciding what you will do and following through, even when it’s uncomfortable. We also get into people‑pleasing, codependency, perfectionism, and the burnout that shows up when you’re constantly pouring from an empty cup. Barb shares how she built self‑worth, self‑love, and self‑trust one decision and one boundary at a time, plus how reparenting work helped her “backfill” the love she didn’t get as a kid. She lays out practical first steps: starting with a boundary on your own self‑talk, practicing with easygoing people, and learning that discomfort doesn’t automatically mean danger. By the end, we’re talking Hallmark movies, Pellegrino with lemon, and how recovery even changes your taste buds. === Chapters 00:32 Part Two Begins 02:44 Boundaries Coaching Defined 05:48 What Internal Safety Means 14:47 Women, Burnout, and Self-Priority 18:51 Safety Comes From Within 23:19 Boundaries Prevent Burnout 27:54 Start With Self-Boundaries 31:12 Real Boundaries, Real Consequences 34:33 Discomfort Is Not Danger 41:13 Recovery Joys and Guilty Pleasures 44:47 Course on Internal Safety === Guest: Barb Nangle, Higher Power Coaching & Consulting Website: https://higherpowercc.com LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/barbnangle Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/higherpowercoaching === Resources / Companies / Books / Podcasts Fragmented to Whole: (Podcast): https://higherpowercc.com/podcast/ Boundaries That Hold: How to Stop Overriding Yourself in Real Time (Course): https://higherpowercc.com/boundariesthathold Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) / Overeaters: https://www.aa.org Adult Children of Alcoholics / Dysfunctional Families (ACA): https://adultchildren.org Pellegrino (San Pellegrino Sparkling Water): https://amzn.to/4hqvfCE Hallmark Channel: https://www.hallmarkchannel.com Lifetime (TV Network): https://www.mylifetime.com === About the Unhealthy PodcastHosted by Marvin Bee (Uncle Marv), the Unhealthy Podcast dives into real conversations about health, wellness, and everyday habits that impact how we live, work, and age.

When Barb Nangle talks about boundaries, she’s not talking about controlling other people, she’s talking about finally realizing you have standards for your own life and you’re allowed to live by them. She shares how she went from “just dealing with whatever came at her” to saying no to things that drained her, limiting time with people who couldn’t respect her needs, and choosing sleep, health, and sanity over people-pleasing. We walk through her codependent bottom, inviting a homeless friend to stay “just to be nice” until she felt trapped in her own home, and how that moment pushed her into therapy, Al‑Anon, Codependents Anonymous, Adult Children of Alcoholics, and ultimately a trauma‑recovery path through ACA and Overeaters Anonymous. Barb opens up about losing over 100 pounds, ending one‑sided friendships, changing the way her team functioned at Yale, and finally ending up in the first truly healthy romantic relationship of her life because she learned to know herself, tell the truth, and hold boundaries even when it was scary. === Chapters 00:30 Boundaries and Safety 05:29 Learning My Limits 07:37 Hitting the Codependent Bottom 12:15 What Codependence Really Means 15:53 Recovery Beyond Addiction 19:39 Reparenting Through ACA 23:46 How Recovery Changed Others 30:55 Love After Healing 37:17 Ongoing Recovery Work === Guest: Barb Nangle, Higher Power Coaching & Consulting / Fragmented to Whole: Life Lessons from 12‑Step Recovery Website: https://higherpowercc.com LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/barbnangle Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/higherpowercoaching === Resources / Companies / Books / Podcasts Fragmented to Whole: Life Lessons from 12‑Step Recovery (podcast): https://higherpowercc.com/podcast Al‑Anon (Al‑Anon Family Groups): https://al-anon.org Codependents Anonymous (CODA): https://coda.org Adult Children of Alcoholics / Dysfunctional Families (ACA): https://adultchildren.org Alcoholics Anonymous (AA): https://www.aa.org Overeaters Anonymous (OA): https://oa.org === About the Unhealthy PodcastHosted by Marvin Bee (Uncle Marv), the Unhealthy Podcast dives into real conversations about health, wellness, and everyday habits that impact how we live, work, and age.

Dr. Noushin Hart’s story is a raw one. She talks about living with hidden trauma for decades, trying to push through with therapy and medication, and eventually hitting a wall where she felt like the usual medical answers had run out. That moment changed how she saw herself, how she saw patients, and how she looked at healing. What makes this conversation hit hard is that it is not just about cancer care, it is about what happens when people feel dismissed, boxed in, or told their story is already written. Dr. Hart explains why she stopped leading with statistics, why she believes language can shape outcomes, and why trauma, sleep, food, stress, and environment all matter when you are trying to get better. === Chapters 00:19 Origins of Healing 04:01 Breaking Western Medicine 07:27 A Life-Saving Turning Point 14:24 Hope Beyond Statistics 19:11 Kundalini Activation Explained 25:15 From Oncologist to Consultant 29:25 Whole-Person Cancer Care 33:30 Belief and Energy Healing 35:57 Hidden Pain Revealed 37:35 Rebuilding Daily Health === Guest: Dr. Noushin Hart, Healing by Hart Website: https://healingbyhart.com/ Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/hart2heartcancerconsultants Linktree: https://linktr.ee/dr.hart2heart?lt_utm_source=lt_share_link#547394769 === MUSIC LICENSE CERTIFICATE: Envato Elements Item Item Title: Healthy Eating Item URL: https://elements.envato.com/healthy-eating-VNN4M4P Author Username: CrazyTunes Licensee: Marvin Bee Registered Project Name: Unhealthy Podcast License Date: January 3rd, 2026 Item License Code: XPFS6HD54W === About the Unhealthy PodcastHosted by Marvin Bee (Uncle Marv), the Unhealthy Podcast dives into real conversations about health, wellness, and everyday habits that impact how we live, work, and age.

Paige comes back on Unhealthy and basically dismantles the idea that we can “fix” ourselves with another diet, a GLP‑1 prescription, or sheer willpower. We talk about dopamine with a memory, why you end up back in the cookie jar at night, and how using food for comfort is giving it a job it was never designed to do. She walks through the deeper stuff we usually dodge: trauma, grief, loneliness, boredom, lack of purpose, and why weight gain is just the visible byproduct of what’s really going on. We also get practical. Paige breaks down her own recovery routine, from planning six breakfasts ahead to food prep that kills decision fatigue so she doesn’t have to “be strong” at 9 p.m. We dig into single‑ingredient foods, cleaning out the junk in your house, navigating family members who still want their cookies, and her simple rule that if it’s in your house, it’s in your mouth. By the end, this isn’t a doom‑and‑gloom food talk, it’s about feeling good, reclaiming your brain, and making recovery something you actually look forward to. === About the Unhealthy PodcastHosted by Marvin Bee (Uncle Marv), the Unhealthy Podcast dives into real conversations about health, wellness, and everyday habits that impact how we live, work, and age.

Most of us joke about having a sweet tooth, but Paige Alexander has lived through the darker side of sugar, where “just one cookie” turns into a full-on binge you hide from everyone. She walks me through her journey from living on a dessert diet and out-exercising the calories to hitting that point in midlife where the weight crept up, the binges got worse, and the old tricks stopped working. Hearing the word “addiction” for the first time wasn’t shameful for her; it was a massive relief, because it finally explained why her brain would push her toward sugar even when her body was begging her to stop. Paige also shares the science in plain language: how cravings pull blood flow away from your frontal lobe, shut off your brakes, and light up the addiction centers in your brain so hard that digging a donut out of the trash can feel like a genuine emergency. She talks about secret wedding-cake runs, progressive cravings that demand more and more for less and less payoff, and how food addiction is actually one of the hardest addictions to treat because you still have to eat and the triggers are everywhere. Out of that mess, she built Real Food Recovery, a community built around real food, sleep, movement, and some kind of higher power, where people get compassion, structure, and a soft place to land while they learn to live without sugar running the show. === Chapters 00:31 Sugar Addiction Revealed 04:28 The Science of Cravings 08:39 Building a Recovery Community 14:48 Holistic Healing Approach 20:33 Aging, Weight, and Change 22:14 From Nursing to Recovery 25:04 Signs of Food Addiction 30:48 Addiction Recognition Debate === Guest: Paige Alexander, Real Food Recovery Website: https://realfoodrecovery.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/realfoodrecovery4u/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/paige-alexander-0656632a8/ === Resources / Companies / Books / Podcasts Real Food Recovery Podcast: https://www.realfoodrecovery4u.com/podcast Real Food Recovery: If Food isn't the Answer, What's the Question: https://amzn.to/4uXJi5X === MUSIC LICENSE CERTIFICATE: Envato Elements Item Item Title: Healthy Eating Item URL: https://elements.envato.com/healthy-eating-VNN4M4P Author Username: CrazyTunes Licensee: Marvin Bee Registered Project Name: Unhealthy Podcast License Date: January 3rd, 2026 Item License Code: XPFS6HD54W === About the Unhealthy PodcastHosted by Marvin Bee (Uncle Marv), the Unhealthy Podcast dives into real conversations about health, wellness, and everyday habits that impact how we live, work, and age.

I brought Catherine back for a third round because we both felt something was still unfinished, and it landed in a place I didn’t expect: how much we’re letting AI and tech speak, feel, and even relate for us. We start with her process of trusting zero prep, trusting intuition, and even helping a 77–year–old finally drop a lifetime of jealousy, then swing hard into this strange new world where people let chatbots write texts to their spouse and apps raise their kids. === Chapters 00:21 Trilogy and Inner Authority 05:10 AI, Noise, and Human Voice 15:11 Emotion Behind the Screen 22:03 Quiet, Boredom, and Intuition 25:21 The Virtual Obsession Story 29:13 AI as a Helpful Tool === Guest: Catherine Crestani, Willow Healing Website: https://willowhealing.org Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/willowhealingsh/ Willow Healing Podcast: https://www.youtube.com/@willowhealingsh Willow Healing Matters (Substack): https://willowhealing.substack.com === MUSIC LICENSE CERTIFICATE: Envato Elements Item Item Title: Healthy Eating Item URL: https://elements.envato.com/healthy-eating-VNN4M4P Author Username: CrazyTunes Licensee: Marvin Bee Registered Project Name: Unhealthy Podcast License Date: January 3rd, 2026 Item License Code: XPFS6HD54W === About the Unhealthy PodcastHosted by Marvin Bee (Uncle Marv), the Unhealthy Podcast dives into real conversations about health, wellness, and everyday habits that impact how we live, work, and age.

Catherine Creestani is back to talk about what life really looks like after you walk away from the job, the title, and the version of “success” everyone else applauds but your soul can’t stand. She shares how her days now revolve around mom duties, homeschooling, writing, podcasting, and clients, and why she actually schedules empty days on purpose so her nervous system can come down out of permanent hustle mode. We talk about the difference between feeling productive and actually being in flow, and what happens when your calendar is packed but your life feels empty. Catherine walks us through how Willow Healing evolved from early channeling work and a psychic hotline to something much deeper: helping people rebuild the relationship they have with themselves. She explains inner authority as that quiet, grounded voice in you that already knows what’s right, even while your mind is busy spinning stories and checking the weather app instead of grabbing the umbrella your gut told you to take. We dig into how easily we hand our power to social media, technology, and other people’s opinions, and why so many folks can tell you what their partner is doing wrong but can’t answer a simple question: “What do you actually want?” If you’re stuck in “I can’t” or terrified of making the wrong move, this conversation is a gentle call-out and a real invitation. Catherine shares practical starter steps like doing a life audit, bringing one joyful thing back into your day, reframing “have to” tasks, and using your body’s signals as green lights and hard no’s. We also talk discernment, failure as feedback, music that magically shows up on her playlist at the exact right time, and her belief that you’re never too old or too young to be reacquainted with your soul. This one is for anyone who knows something has to change but needs help taking that first honest step. === Chapters 01:45 New Day, New Flow 04:14 From Corporate to Healing 04:42 Willow Healing Emerges 09:11 The Mediumship Question 10:53 Managing Psychic Boundaries 14:08 Finding Inner Purpose 17:48 Defining Inner Authority 24:21 Small Steps to Joy 27:15 Trusting Your Discernment 30:09 Music That Moves You 31:36 Closing Reflections === Guest: Catherine Crestani, Willow Healing Website: https://willowhealing.org Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/willowhealingsh === Resources / Companies / Books / Podcasts Brainz Magazine, Digital Magazine: https://www.brainzmagazine.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/brainz-magazine/ Willow Healing Matters Podcast: vhttps://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/willow-healing-matters-podcast/id1760975061 Brainz Magazine: https://www.brainzmagazine.com Whispers From My Future Self (song by Linhy): https://youtu.be/XvJ20EhvCaM?si=xbDPdXF6iEHWsctx === MUSIC LICENSE CERTIFICATE: Envato Elements Item Item Title: Healthy Eating Item URL: https://elements.envato.com/healthy-eating-VNN4M4P Author Username: CrazyTunes Licensee: Marvin Bee Registered Project Name: Unhealthy Podcast License Date: January 3rd, 2026 Item License Code: XPFS6HD54W === About the Unhealthy PodcastHosted by Marvin Bee (Uncle Marv), the Unhealthy Podcast dives into real conversations about health, wellness, and everyday habits that impact how we live, work, and age.

If you’ve ever convinced yourself, “I just need to push a little harder,” this episode might hit a little too close to home. Catherine walks us through the arc from ambitious young speech pathologist to co‑owner of a booming clinic, pulling six figures a month while quietly abandoning her own needs, values, and even her love of music to keep the peace at home and at work. We talk about how over‑functioning becomes a habit: micromanaging staff, answering 100 emails every morning, never getting sick because you’re too wired to stop, and then waking up one day realizing you don’t actually want the life you built. === Chapters 00:40 From Burnout to Intuition 02:44 Building a Seven-Figure Practice 08:34 Marriage, Business, and Collapse 13:22 Listening to the Gut 19:14 The Body Says Quit 20:28 Healing After Leaving 23:19 Grieving the Dream 25:47 Trusting Intuition Fully 29:46 Willow Healing Begins === Guest: Catherine Crestani, Willow Healing Website: https://willowhealing.org LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/catherine-crestani Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/willowhealingwithcatherine === MUSIC LICENSE CERTIFICATE: Envato Elements Item Item Title: Healthy Eating Item URL: https://elements.envato.com/healthy-eating-VNN4M4P Author Username: CrazyTunes Licensee: Marvin Bee Registered Project Name: Unhealthy Podcast License Date: January 3rd, 2026 Item License Code: XPFS6HD54W === About the Unhealthy PodcastHosted by Marvin Bee (Uncle Marv), the Unhealthy Podcast dives into real conversations about health, wellness, and everyday habits that impact how we live, work, and age.
