She has had to clear numerous hurdles on her way to the stage. She is a longtime student of Buddhism, which has helped her put things in perspective in terms of ego and judgment and various other obstacles. While she now enjoys performing, she still admits it's sometimes hard to expose herself to potential criticism. Pamela graduated from the University of Florida College of Journalism & Communications with a B.S. in Advertising. She moved to San Francisco 3 days after graduating. She has also worked at numerous ad agencies in San Francisco and has freelanced as a writer, editor and proofreader for over 100 companies. In addition, along her wildly diverse journey, she has also worked part-time for a caterer, co-owned a dog biscuit company, spent two years working as a vegetarian cook in the kitchen of a silent meditation center, and has taught cooking classes. You can learn more about Pamela at www.pamelajoyjazz.com. 00:37:00Map2Selfnowomen,self-discovery,empowerment,goals,self-improvementJoining us on Map2Self today, is Pamela Joy: to discuss the importance of discovering your own voice. Both literally and figuratively, Pamela's journey hasHow Female Friends Can Save Your Lifehttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/map2self/2011/04/20/how-female-friends-can-save-your-lifeWomenhttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/map2self/2011/04/20/how-female-friends-can-save-your-life/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/map2self/2011/04/20/how-female-friends-can-save-your-lifeWed, 20 Apr 2011 16:00:00 GMTHow Female Friends Can Save Your Life The word "friend" has been so tainted by "frenemies" and other ideas of female animosity that we have culturally lost the beautiful appreciation of female friendship.  Christine Bronstein, founder of www.abandofwives.com, believes that in order to thrive we need to have a rich community of women that we feel connected to.

Val will tell tales of how her relationships, financial prospects, and career all changed the moment she changed her mind and opened to the possibilities she had never seen before. After leaving a 12-year corporate career as a Systems Engineer, Val Sorter lives her life as an expression of empowered feminine leadership.   As an entrepreneur and consultant, Val now combines her corporate expertise with her commitment to conscious heart-centered living.  She is an entrepreneur creating conscious companies that honor the individuals within the business, the business itself, as well as the planet.    Val’s deepest passion lies in supporting women to move beyond limitations, judgments and out-dated expectations into a life that truly expresses the light, passion and contribution within every woman.  Personally experiencing the pain of self-denial, self-sabotage and near breakdown, she found herself overweight, anxious and depressed. Val knew that  there had to be a different way, something better.  All of her seeking brought no answers, only more confusion, until she went on her inner journey of seeking.  She awoke her soul to find herself starring at a world that she was not aware existed; where possibilities are endless, people are beautiful, and healing is effortless.

It's about becoming aware of the choices we make every time we eat and how they impact our state of health. Finding the right balance is a living process. It begins with the ability to stay connected to where you are today and to choose what truly feeds you. Drema Lindie integrated her spiritual beliefs, yoga practice, and nutritional training in conceptualizing The Yoga of Eating. Her own historical struggles with food, and her vast experience with clients, also inform her understanding of the ways in which we disconnect, overindulge, or deny ourselves nourishment through food. Listen and learn how to increase your awareness, so you can begin to make choices that really honor your precious body. Drema Lindie is a Holistic Health Practitioner, board certified through AADP. In 1998 she completed her schooling in Nutrition and Holistic Health at The Academy of Natural Health Sciences (Woodbridge, NJ) and in 2009 graduated as a Digestive Health Specialist from the Loomis Institute of Enzyme Nutrition. Since 1997 Drema has been a certified yoga instructor with the Integral Yoga Institute, New York, N.Y.

Yet, she continually finds beauty in the process, and wisdom in her set backs.  Michelle attributes a lot of her personal grace to our second guest today; her mother Vivian. Vivian Stinger is the most uplifting 78 year old woman I have ever met. She has survived spousal abuse, poverty, single-parenthood and moments few of us could imagine.

On this episode we will discuss honoring your body and shedding the weight that holds you back. For Renée Stephens, (www.reneemethod.com) weight loss is not about dropping pounds for swimsuit season. It’s about getting out of our own way, stopping the self criticism, and falling in love with our lives and our bodies. It’s not about self-control; it’s about self-expression. Renée specializes in helping one of the most difficult populations: women who have struggled with their weight for years, tried all the diets, and often given up. Using state of the art tools from Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP), Hypnotherapy, and Life Coaching, Renée helps her clients re-wire their brains to change not just behavior, but deep seated motivation. The result is both an ease of living, and an awakening to the rest of life. Go to www.reneemethod.com to download her free itunes podcasts, learn about trauma and weight gain, or find out more about coaching.

Our 1st guest, Lea Seigen Shinraku, defines self-compassion as "the willingness to acknowledge and welcome the full range of one's experience - pain, pleasure, discomfort, and everything in between." Too often we turn away from aspects of our experience; either through struggling to "fix" ourselves, avoiding reality, or harshly judging who we are. This aversion can lock us into patterns of self-criticism and suffering. Our guests today will share their perspectives on how to cultivate self-compassion and free ourselves from the painful mindsets that keep us stuck. Lea Seigen Shinraku is a registered MFT intern in SF who specializes in guiding clients and mindfulness groups in developing self-compassion to transform self-defeating patterns and find a deeper sense of joy in their lives. Her work is informed by 10 yrs of meditation practice, counseling training in psychology, and her own journey toward self-healing.

Currently, she is pursuing her masters degree in somatic psychology. Jessica's background in yoga, energy work, and psychology inform her ideas in moving towards self love. Yet, it is her personal journey of healing from trauma that ignite the flames of self compassion and the desire to share this with others.
