  • Back to the Basics, Baby
    Sep 3 2025
    ✨ Episode Summary: Welcome to Season 2! In this warm and witty kickoff, your favorite stress therapist brings us back to what matters: stillness, consciousness, and the radical magic of not saying “I’m tired.” Through heartfelt stories (including a rainy river trip that turned into a core memory), this episode reminds us why meditation matters and how we can reclaim our peace—one breath at a time. It all leads to a gentle guided breath meditation to help you get grounded, get quiet, and just be. Whether you're new or returning, this episode is your loving nudge to start again—with humor, honesty, and heart. 🧘‍♀️ 3 Key Learning Points:
    • Tired is a choice—stop saying it! You create your reality with your words. Saying “I’m tired” only fuels the fatigue.
    • Complaining makes things worse. Every. Single. Time. Even in miserable moments, keeping humor and presence can transform the experience.
    • Meditation is not about nothing. It’s training your mind to focus on one thing—your breath, a mantra, or stillness—and taking custody of your consciousness.
    💫 Mentions & Shout-Outs:
    • 🛶 Rainy canoe trip with Andre – a core memory filled with laughter and no complaints.
    • 📿 "You create your reality" – inspired by Parmahansa Yogananda.
    • 🧠 Quote nod to Michael A. Singer – on the mind being separate from the self.
    • 📵 The Brick – a real gadget the host uses to remove distractions from her phone.
    • 💬 Classic quote reimagined: "All of man’s problems stem from his inability to sit quietly in a room alone for 15 minutes."
    • 🧘‍♂️ Guided Meditation Included – a back-to-basics breath-focused meditation with gentle grounding.
    • 📩 Special Love for Owen Flake – for producing the show with care and clarity!

  • Pickleball Energy for Your Soul: The Secret to True Motivation
    Aug 19 2025
    🪷 Show Notes: Ever wonder why you just can't seem to get motivated — even for the stuff you actually want to do? In this soul-sparking episode, Cheri breaks down the true nature of motivation and why it's not what you think. Spoiler: it doesn't magically show up before the action... it comes after. From her early days working with people living with schizophrenia to her own personal spiral of stress and transformation, Cheri shares raw stories, real science, and hilarious truth bombs that will make you want to lace up your sneakers (or at least drink some water). We unpack the little-by-little mentality, the “Pickleball Principle,” and the magic of doing less so you can feel more. Plus, a peaceful guided meditation using the powerful mantra “Om” awaits at the end — perfect if you’re ready to start showing up for yourself with love, not pressure. ✨ 3 Key Takeaways:
    • Motivation follows action, not the other way around. If you're waiting to feel motivated before you start, you'll wait forever.
    • Do less, feel better. Start small and stop on a high note — your brain and habits will thank you.
    • Feel good first. When a behavior feels good, you’re far more likely to stick with it (hello, pickleball people!).
    🙌 Mentions & Shout-Outs:
    • 🧠 Volition vs. Motivation — insight from psychiatric work
    • 🧘‍♂️ Davidji – Cheri’s beloved meditation teacher & voice of “RPM: Rise, Pee, Meditate”
    • 🎾 Pickleball People – the ultimate metaphor for effortless motivation
    • 🐾 Cheri’s Retreats – beachy, mountainy, dog-friendly, magical (come along!)
    • 🎵 Sonic Yogi – musical support for the guided Om meditation
    • 🛠️ Cheri’s garage – a hot mess, but metaphor gold
    • 💧 Hydration struggles & spousal water-bragging rights 😂
    • 🚘 Shout-out to her “CHEROKEE” license plate — and the evolving school of “Cheri Flake School”
    🧘‍♀️ Guided Meditation Included: Yes! A short, centering mantra-based meditation using “Om” to bring you back to center and energize your mind. Produced & edited with heart by 🎧 Owen Flake.

  • No One Is Coming to Save You....And that's GOOD News!
    Jul 30 2025
    ✨ Episode Summary: In this fiercely empowering episode, Cheri Flake dives deep into the illusion of control and the ultimate truth: you are the master of your life. Through reflections on Lucinda Williams' haunting lyrics and personal stories from her therapy practice, Cheri explores how we give our power away—and how to take it back. She challenges us to stop waiting for permission, resolution, or the perfect moment, and instead embrace radical responsibility for our healing and joy. The episode wraps with a powerful guided chakra meditation to help you turn inward and reconnect with your innate light. 🧠 Three Key Learning Points:
    • 🌪️ Control is an Inside Job: Real empowerment begins the moment you take 100% responsibility for your life—no exceptions, no blame.
    • 💡 Joy Isn’t Lost, It’s Buried: Stop searching “out there”—happiness lives within, waiting to be uncovered through stillness and silence.
    • 🔥 Unresolved Isn’t Always Unfinished: What you can’t fix might be sacred. Acceptance can be the most divine protection of all.
    📣 Mentions & Shout-Outs:
    • 🎸 Lucinda Williams – Her song “Joy” is a soulful metaphor for the search we all do outside of ourselves.
    • 📚 Wayne Dyer – His teachings on radical responsibility helped shape this episode’s core message.
    • 🧘‍♀️ Silent Retreats – Cheri shares insights from her mountain retreats and upcoming offerings.
    • 📍 Georgia Retreats – 🍂 September 2025 in the Blue Ridge Mountains & 🏖️ Jekyll Island retreats: meditation, yoga, and transformation in stunning locations.
