Bio:

“With a history of abuse, drug addiction, weight gain and trauma, Maz changed her life around when she lost 30kg and
went on to become a bikini competitor and sponsored ProTeam Australia athlete. Her physical transformation triggered a spiritual and emotional awakening forcing her to look within and dig into subconscious thought patterns and behaviours. From what started as documenting and sharing her journey on YouTube and Instagram, Maz is now the founder of the Phoenix Rising Collective. The Phoenix Rising Collective was created for people who are absolutely excited and dead serious about breaking cycles within themselves and others, breaking out of the rut, breaking through resistance, and limiting beliefs. – It means not running around all day long, beating yourself up or being the victim in life. It means being ready to take charge, be accountable, take your power back and create the life you want. She works with people just like you who know deep down you are capable of so much more and have so much potential, yet don’t quite know to unlock your inner Rockstar.”

The Healing Place Podcast: Dr. Kelli Palfy – Male Sexual Abuse; Me(n) Too; Pedophile Profiles; & Caregiver Response

Grateful to have Dr. Kelli Palfy, Registered Psychologist, join me to discuss:

male sexual abuse
her book ME^N TOO: UNSPOKEN TRUTHS ABOUT MALE SEXUAL ABUSE
pedophile profiles and habits
caregiver response to disclosure
and so much more!

Bio:

“Dr. Kelli Palfy began her professional career working in adult and youth corrections. Here she noticed a disproportionate number of males in the system. After becoming an RCMP (Royal Canadian Mounted Police) officer, she took an interest in investigating sex crimes and went on to specialize in sex crimes committed against children internationally. Here, as she combed through video evidence, she witnessed first-hand the grooming tactics commonly used by sophisticated pedophiles.
After retiring from the RCMP, Dr. Palfy obtained her Ph.D. in Counseling Psychology from the University of Alberta. She conducted her doctoral research on the reasons why males don’t commonly disclose sexual abuse. She is now a trained trauma therapist and public speaker on the topic of male abuse. Dr. Palfy currently runs a small private practice where she works with male survivors of sexual abuse, first responders and couples using Emotion-Focused and Cognitive Behavioral Approach, plus Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). Outside of her professional life she enjoys hiking, cycling, swimming, kayaking, paddle boarding, hanging out with friends and pets.”

Learn more about Kelli and her mission at http://kellipalfy.ca/

Book Description:

Male sexual abuse occurs more commonly among infants, youth and adults than was previously suspected. Despite knowing this, disproportionately few males seek support. Many remain silent, protect their families, and cope through isolating or numbing, themselves, misusing substances and engaging in sexual promiscuity or hypermasculinity.

ME^N TOO: UNSPOKEN TRUTHS ABOUT MALE SEXUAL ABUSE is for male survivors, their supporters and helping professionals. It is an educational, honest, yet heart-wrenching look at the stories of 13 male sexual abuse victims – it is written from their perspective, with the wisdom of retired police officer and psychologist, Dr. Kelli Palfy.

Through their narrative accounts, Dr. Palfy offers:

· Male victims – Healing through recognition of both their positions as victims and the impact of their abuse.

· Parents and teachers – Strategies to identify common yet sophisticated predatory grooming tactics, plus ideas on how to better protect children from abusers.

· First responders and helping professionals – information to better recognize the signs of traumatized people, examples of male abuse explaining when it began, how it was maintained and why the victims remained silent for so long.

For the sake of our boys and men, discussions about male sexual abuse need to increase. Male victims need to feel safe asking for support. ME^N TOO highlights the many unique barriers boys and men face as they contemplate their road to recovery.

The Healing Place Podcast: Samantha Wettje – the 16 Strong Project; & Youth Empowerment and Resilience Building Initiatives

A shout out of gratitude to Samantha Wettje, co-founder of the 16 Strong Project and an adolescent mental well-being advocate, as she joins me to discuss her passion in regards to:

the 16 Strong Project: the mission, the programs, and the meaning of the name
her personal story of resilience and triumph
Every Voice Heard initiative
youth empowerment and resilience-building programs
and so much more!

Bio:

“Samantha is the co-founder of the 16 Strong Project and an adolescent mental well-being advocate. She created the 16 Strong Project in 2017 in response to what she experienced as a young person, living with a mentally ill and addicted parent, struggling to find answers and understand what was happening in her life. It wasn’t until she finished college, and shared her story with many of her friends, that she realized that she was not the only one, and that what happened to her mattered. So many times people do not realize they are not alone or that what they are experiencing has a name. Determined to ensure that the next generation of youth is equipped to handle their adversity, and not suffer in silence, Samantha created a program to empower resilience to adverse childhood experiences, because she believes what happens to all of us matters.
Samantha has an Ed.M. in Human Development and Psychology from Harvard University and a B.S.in Financial Economics from Binghamton University. In addition to her work with the 16 Strong Project, Samantha is actively involved with the Harvard Graduate School of Education’s EASEL Lab for social-emotional learning, Harvard’s Making Caring Common Project and Journey into Education and Teaching (JET), a non-profit aiming to increase teacher diversity in Massachusetts.
Samantha is an avid traveler, exercise enthusiast, sports junkie, loves diners, music, reading, ice cream, her cat Boots, and most of all, the New York Mets.”

“Dr. Cabot is a retired United Methodist pastor who believes in the full gospel of Christ for salvation, healing and deliverance. She received her M.A. Biblical Studies and M. Div. from Asbury Theological Seminary and her Doctorate in Formational Counseling from Ashland Theological Seminary.
She was called by God into healing ministry 30 years ago, devoting herself to conscientiously study under the prominent healing theologians of our time. Over the last decades of learning, observation and experience, she has discovered the impact of facilitating Inner Healing Prayer, a healing paradigm also known as “healing of emotions” or “healing of memories”. The Inner Healing Prayer is a unique ministry that only Christ can do, where the human facilitator is just that – the one who helps the person receiving prayer come into the presence of Christ for His divine touch.
Since retiring as a United Methodist pastor, Dr. Cabot travels the US and beyond to preach and teach about healing and deliverance through informational weekend conferences, experiential workshops and facilitator training academies for her non-profit, Kingdom Life Healing Ministries.
She believes in the healing power of the risen Christ as revealed through Holy Scriptures, church tradition and her own experience. Her passion is to bring others to personal healing through Christ to glorify God and equip disciples.”
