| 25 Aug 2019 | #10 - "JUST" stop. | 00:15:36 | |
Episode 10! Yay! Today, I'm talking about eliminating the qualifying word "just" from how we talk about what's happening in our careers. It's not "just" an audition. It's not "just" a co-star credit. SchloerBITS is not "just" a little web series. In order for us to maintain healthy mindsets, it's important to stop qualifying our accomplishments. Links: SchloerBITS - not JUST a web series! ;-)

Confession time! I have a "bad actor" habit of eagerly (okay, okay, obsessively) waiting to hear that I booked the job after an audition. I know I SHOULD just let it all go and move on, but I find myself obsessively checking my email. But the time has come to break this habit! Let's work through this together so we can all move on!

| 01 Jul 2019 | #7 - Celebrating Our Decisions / Celebrating In Advance | 00:10:39 | |
This episode is just a big ol' celebration! Wooohooo! Party! Okay, well, really, I was intrigued by the idea that here in American we celebrate our Independence Day on the day we declared our independence rather than the day we actually won it. I started relating this idea to my own manifesting practice and I think I ended with some cool ideas that I wanted to share! Happy 4th of July! Links

| 15 May 2024 | #31 - How I Learned to Feel and Release Emotional Tension | 00:13:32 | |
My show notes…
Join me as I share some thoughts on a practice that has helped me more fully feel and release any emotional tension I’m carrying.
And here’s some stuff AI wrote that is a bit more comprehensive and maybe will help with SEO and all that fun stuff…
In this podcast episode, the host shares their personal journey of learning to fully feel and express their emotions, a practice they initially struggled with despite advocating for emotional openness. They introduce an 'intentional release practice' developed while working with a coach to heal their childhood trauma. Through reflecting on their past, they identified the need to acknowledge, feel, and release emotions suppressed since childhood due to fear and a desire to protect their loved ones. The host describes creating a playlist of sad songs to facilitate emotional release, an approach that proved cathartic and led to significant personal growth. They emphasize the importance of acknowledging and nurturing all versions of oneself - past, present, and future - as a form of self-care and self-love. The episode encourages listeners to develop and adopt their own practices for emotional release and self care through asking “What do I need?” | |||
| 30 Sep 2020 | #24 - Manifesting My Soul.....Plumber! | 00:18:49 | |
It's true! I'm in love! I've finally found a great plumber! This is a fun story about the process of manifesting my "forever plumber" that has some useful manifesting lessons, even though it has nothing to do with acting. (And I'm sorry about the audio volume issues. I switched microphones and I am still trying to figure out input levels. The content is still good though!)
