Heal From the Ground Up

Are you ready to heal your emotions, relationship, family, and career from the ground up? In this podcast, What sets this podcast apart from all others, is that Michael will help you both identify and treat the root cause of your pain so you can truly be free of it. 99% of the mental health and self-help field focuses on just trying to make you feel better without understanding why you feel the way you do. This creates what I call the rubberband effect. Imagine yourself tied to a light post with a large rubber band. You push forward with “positivity” but eventually because you did not address the root cause, you snap right back. Break free from this vicious cycle of treating the symptom and ignoring the root cause by listening to the podcast as well as joining Michael’s membership community for full access to Michael’s revolutionary methods and teachings.

9: The Sin of Being Selfless - Michael Hsu & Kay Yamaguchi

For most of my life I have struggled with being too selfless. Interestingly, the people that have irritated me the most in my life have been selfish. Although it is very important that we give to others, the most important person we need to give to is ourselves. Having said that, giving to ourselves becomes much more complicated when we have been emotionally abandoned or neglected by our family. How can we give to ourselves when the most important people that brought us into this world did not g...

8: Reunited with My Lost Father

If you missed the previous episode (episode 7: The Danger of Not Trusting Yourself), please listen to episode 7 first. As episode 8 is a continuation of episode 7. In episode 7 we focused on Deborah’s relationship with her husband where she felt constantly marginalized, and made to feel less than. What kept her from leaving the relationship or really standing up for herself was the fear of instability that she would feel if she left his financial security. And this was doubly tormenting for her ...

7: The Danger in not Trusting Yourself - Michael Hsu & Kay Yamaguchi

When we don't trust ourselves we may get stuck in a pattern of unhealthy behavior that mask our lack of trust in ourselves. The caller Deborah tolerates a lot of verbal abuse from her husband in large part because of the fear that she cannot stand on her own two feet. This lack of trust in herself stems from her tumultuous childhood. Her father struggled with infidelity and her single mother struggled immensely to make ends meet from raising a family all on her own. Ultimately we will see a powe...

6: Single & My Biological Clock is Ticking with Gemini Ferrie

The degree of lack of love within ourselves is to the same degree that we'll experience a lack of love in our relationships. We can feel lost and confused as to why life is keeping something we deeply desire and feel we deserve. Often people end up feeling like there's something wrong with them because they're still single. Only the vulnerability of personal responsibility can help us see clearly how we are (unconsciously) contributing to our inner experience of lack. This naturally results in c...

5: What Does It Really Mean to Love Yourself with Michael Hsu & Kay Yamaguchi

For the most part we all think we do love ourselves but when we look really closely our actions may say otherwise. It doesn’t help that society praises sacrifice, care and devotion to others but very little praise is given to loving and caring for yourself which is often misperceived as selfish. Our lives have become so fast-paced and busy that our core needs become lost in all of our responsibility towards others. This podcast Michael Hsu and Kay Yamaguchi have the luxury of coaching a group of...

4: They Should Believe As I Believe with Jaya the Trust Coach

How is it that the mere mention of something like global warming can cause rifts between family members? It's hard enough to be graceful colliding with the beliefs of perfect strangers. How do we navigate that discord with loved ones without disconnecting? For those aspiring to unconditional love, forgiveness, tolerance, we often disconnect from ourselves in our reactiveness and end up feeling as infuriated with ourselves as we are with them. Here, we look at welcoming ourselves to the human rac...

1: The Masks We Wear to Hide Our Pain: Michael Hsu & Kay Yamaguchi

What happens when we mask our childhood wounds? We think everything is in the past, but the truth is if it is left unresolved it will continue to control your life.
