Anybody can heal and transform and live healthy, authentic lives.
Ever felt like you're not living as your true self? Michelle Chalfant might just have the answer. In this episode of 'The Addicted Mind Podcast', host Duane Osterlind chats with Michelle, a therapist and coach, about her transformative Adult Chair Model. This model is all about helping you become your most authentic self by sitting in your 'adult chair' and navigating through trauma, inner child issues, and ego challenges.
Michelle shares practical tips that can guide you towards a life filled with meaning and purpose. Michelle’s journey to creating the Adult Chair Model started when she realized many people, including herself, didn’t know what it meant to be a healthy adult. She combined teachings from various mentors over 25 years to develop this comprehensive approach. The model focuses on emotional health—something many of us struggle with.
Michelle believes that while we may understand physical health, emotional wellness often takes a back seat. Throughout the conversation, Duane and Michelle delve into topics like emotional wellness, self-awareness, spirituality, and the power of self-compassion. Michelle highlights the importance of setting personal boundaries and loving yourself enough to make positive changes. She explains that many people aren’t taught how to properly feel their emotions, which can lead to destructive behaviors like addiction.
The Adult Chair Model aims to change that by teaching people to validate and transform their emotions. Michelle’s approach is rooted in self-love and compassion. She emphasizes that personal growth starts with loving yourself and setting boundaries in your relationships. Her advice is practical, easy to follow, and designed to empower you to make lasting changes in your life. If you're looking to become your most authentic self, this episode is a must-listen.
