episode 181|From Feeling Unheard to Truly Connected: How to Rebuild Communication and Trust in Your Relationships with Laurie Thibert cover

Description

Have you ever walked away from a conversation feeling… completely unheard?   In this episode of Interrupted, I sit down with author and relationship strategist Laurie Thibert to explore the ideas behind her book The CATR Theory and how it is helping people strengthen relationships both at work and at home. Laurie introduces The CATR framework, a simple but powerful concept that compares healthy relationships to a four-legged table. When all four legs are strong, the relationship is stable. But when even one leg weakens, the entire structure can start to wobble. We talk about: • The meaning behind CATR and why each pillar matters • How the framework improves communication and trust • Why workplace relationships often break down • How leaders can build stronger teams and cultures • Practical ways to strengthen relationships at home and at work Whether you lead a team, run a business, or simply want stronger personal relationships, this conversation offers practical tools for building stability, trust, and connection.

190|What If Healing Could Be This Simple? Sound Therapy, Humming, & Maybe some Skipping

What if healing didn’t have to be complicated—and your body already knew what to do? In this uplifting episode of Interrupted: Act 2 Reinventing Your Legacy, I sit down with sound therapist SueZee Finley to explore healing through sound, energy, and simple daily practices that reconnect you to yourself. SueZee shares her personal journey with lupus, caregiving, and the path that led her to sound therapy. We talk about how chronic stress and putting others first can take a toll—and how gentle practices like humming, sound frequencies, movement, and even skipping can support healing in powerful ways. This conversation is a reminder that healing doesn’t always come from doing more—but from tuning in. If you’re navigating caregiving, chronic illness, stress, or simply feeling disconnected from your body, this episode will open your eyes to a different, more intuitive way forward. ✨ Join SueZee for her weekly Sound Therapy Funshop Fridays: https://happinessnownetwork.com/sound-therapy-funshop-fridays [https://happinessnownetwork.com/sound-therapy-funshop-fridays] Free Podcast Myths for Women 50+ [https://canva.link/av5u7pgo7xh6rdq] lacoach@comcast.net

187|Elderhood Isn’t the End—It’s the Beginning: Reinventing Life After Burnout

What if your breaking point wasn’t the end… but the beginning of your real life? In this episode of Interrupted: Act 2 Reinventing Your Legacy, I talk with Pamela Sylvan about midlife reinvention, burnout recovery, and redefining what it means to step into elderhood. After years of chronic stress and frequent ER visits, Pamela realized her life was no longer sustainable. Instead of continuing down that path, she made a bold decision—she walked away and created a new life rooted in health, purpose, and alignment. In this episode, we explore: * Midlife reinvention and starting over after burnout * The truth about elderhood (it’s not about getting old) * Listening to your body before it forces you to stop * How to create new rituals that support healing and clarity * Why it’s never too late to change your life If you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or questioning what’s next, this conversation will remind you that your next chapter is still waiting.

193|From Addiction to Recovery Housing: Lynn’s Story of Sobriety, Healing, and Hope Unfiltered

What does real recovery housing actually look like—and why does it save lives? In this episode host Laurie Hardie sits down with Lynn Zielasko to talk about her personal recovery journey from addiction and the deeper purpose behind her recovery housing program. Together they discuss sobriety, sober living homes, addiction recovery, accountability, structure, community support, and why successful recovery housing is about far more than simply providing a place to stay. Lynn shares the truth about what it takes to build a recovery program that truly helps people heal, rebuild their lives, and create lasting change. This conversation also dives into the emotional side of recovery, the importance of support systems, and how recovery housing can offer hope, dignity, and a real second chance. If you or someone you love is struggling with addiction, alcoholism, substance abuse, or navigating sober living and recovery programs, this episode offers honest insight, encouragement, and hope.
