• Bird Brain | S8E35 (334): What Are Their Actions Secretly Telling You About Your Place in Their Life?

  In this episode, we talk about one of the clearest, yet most overlooked signs of how someone truly feels about you: how they consider you.Not what they say.Not the vibe.Not the history.But whether you show up in their thoughts, their plans, and their curiosity.We explore the difference between people who naturally make space for you in their future — the friends who plan with you without hesitation — versus the people you keep planning around, who never once include you back. We also break down the subtle social cues, like being the only one asking questions, initiating conversations, or investing emotional energy that never gets returned.This episode is about clarity. About recognizing where you're genuinely valued and where you're just trying to earn a place.And ultimately, it’s about learning to stop mistaking effort for reciprocity, and letting people’s consideration (or lack of it) tell you the truth.

• Bird Brain | S8E34(333): The Myth of ‘No Expectations’/ Love Without Obligations or Accountability?

  We praise the idea of having “no expectations” in relationships—calling it freedom, maturity, or spiritual detachment. But is it? Or is it often just emotional avoidance dressed up as wisdom?In this episode, we unpack the myth of “no expectations,” exploring how people still rely on unspoken emotional agreements—loyalty, support, presence, effort—while refusing to name them. We examine why some people reject expectations, not because they are evolved, but because they want love without responsibility, connection without reciprocity, and care without accountability.Join the Newsletter to stay up to date on: Tips, Workshops, podcasts, coaching, speaking events, merch release! https://birdbrainwellness.activehosted.com/f/1limited 1:1 coaching spots available before the year ends: https://bit.ly/birdbrainwellness

• Bird Brain | S8E33(332): Wicked Lessons: The Outsider, the Scapegoat, and the Truth.

  We love a villain story. But not the real kind. The kind where someone is pushed, dismissed, shamed, or bullied… and then punished for finally reacting.Inspired by Wicked, today’s episode digs into how society—and sometimes our own families—create villains out of honest, hurting people. We talk about scapegoating, emotional abuse, groupthink, and why the person who speaks up or refuses to play along gets labeled “difficult” or “dangerous.”If you’re returning home for the holidays and already bracing yourself for judgment, gaslighting, or silent side-eye, this one’s for you. Because sometimes the real “wickedness” isn’t who we become… it’s what we’re forced to survive.Let’s talk about the truth behind the villain narrative.Join the Newsletter to stay up to date on: Tips, Workshops, podcasts, coaching, speaking events, merch release! https://birdbrainwellness.activehosted.com/f/1limited 1:1 coaching spots available before the year ends: https://bit.ly/birdbrainwellness
