This week on Barb Knows Best, Barb and Michelle explore a transformative yet challenging concept: giving yourself permission to feel. In a culture that often tells us to “stay positive” or “power through,” fully embracing our emotions can feel unfamiliar—even radical. Yet, it’s one of the most healing and empowering acts we can do for ourselves.

This week on Barb Knows Best, Barb and Michelle dive into a topic we all face but rarely talk about openly: disrespect and recognizing when enough is enough.
In this episode, they talk about the subtle signals that can tell us it’s time to reassess or even step away from people or situations that no longer feel respectful or aligned. Through honest conversations, personal stories, and practical advice, they explore how small acts of disrespect—often brushed off as “no big deal”—can, over time, erode our sense of trust and security. Through this episode, they’ll help you identify patterns that may be quietly signaling it’s time to reevaluate, set new boundaries, or even make the choice to walk away.

Grief is a universal human experience—no one escapes it. However, there is a form of grief that begins before the actual loss takes place: anticipatory grief.
This week, Barb and Michelle talk about navigating loss before it happens. Anticipatory grief is when someone is expecting or preparing for an impending loss, such as the death of a loved one, the decline of health, or significant life changes. During their conversation, they share their personal experiences, challenges, and the insights they’ve learned navigating their own grief. They also discuss how to manage the feelings of guilt, fear, anger, sadness, helplessness, and the other difficult emotions that arise from this form of grief.
In this episode, they talk about:
Grief is a natural, yet challenging, part of life.Release yourself from any timeline: stay present, take things one step at a time, and remember it’s okay not to have everything figured out.Acceptance is key to grieving—it allows us to acknowledge that life has changed and embrace the uncertainty that comes with it.Even in grief, there can be moments of joy, especially when being fully present with a loved one in their final moments.As Mary Oliver’s poem The Uses of Sorrow reminds us, even the darkest times can eventually reveal themselves as gifts. Grief isn’t linear, and healing takes time, but with patience, we can discover strength and beauty in our most difficult seasons.Books on grief:

The distinction between confidence and entitlement. The idea of holding onto your worthiness without being entitled. Approaching things with humility and empathy instead of judging or believing we’re higher than others.Letting go of the idea that we’re owed instant gratificationBlaming outside factors rather than believing in ourselves and putting in the work to grow, heal, and get to our goalsFollow us @MichelleMaros and @Peaceful_Barb and share your experiences with us @BarbKnowsBestPod or at Michellemaros.com/podcast.

This week, Barb and Michelle share how an unfortunate accident led to Barb being forced to slow down physically and mentally. This incident reminded Barb of the importance of being intentional and mindful in thought and action. It can feel impossible to consider moving at a slower pace, the thoughts in the mind are always racing, and the responsibilities are endless. In this episode, they discuss the key to being present in a fast-paced world and how to mindfully interrupt our constant stream of thoughts.
In this episode, Barb and Michelle discuss:
Cultivating acceptance rather than seeking to escape reality Getting out of the rabbit-hole of worrying and fearful thoughts and storytellingViewing the mind as our greatest companion in life, helping us to become our own best friendQuotes mentioned in this episode:
“Our mind, with its incessant stream of thoughts, memories, opinions, hopes, and fears is our constant companion from which we cannot escape even in our dreams, so it makes sense to cultivate a worthy travel companion for our journey.” - Jetsunma Tenzin Palmo“May I meet this moment fully, may I meet it as a friend.” - Sylvia BoorsteinThe moments of our daily life may appear commonplace, but they carry enormous significance. When we look upon every moment as sacred, a new energy flows into our lives.” - Vinoba Bhave“I can tell my hand what to do and it obeys, why can’t I do the same with my mind?” - Saint AugustineFollow us @MichelleMaros and @Peaceful_Barb and share your experiences with us @BarbKnowsBestPod or at Michellemaros.com/podcast.

This week, Barb and Michelle are talking about an emotion many of us avoid and express poorly—anger. Barb shares her personal experience with avoiding anger throughout her life and her journey with moving through this difficult emotion. They share insights they learned from a somatic healer along with ways to express, acknowledge, and feel your anger.
In this episode, they talk about:
Acknowledging and feeling your anger is key to moving through itTransforming your anger into compassion, but still not bypassing those difficult emotionsHaving the courage to set a boundary and communicate in the difficult moment instead of holding onto anger, stress, or negative emotionsQuotes mentioned in this episode:
“Where there is anger there is always pain underneath.” - Eckhart Tolle, The Power of Now“Hope has two beautiful daughters; their names are Anger and Courage. Anger at the way things are, and Courage to see that they do not remain as they are.” - St. Augustine“Vulnerability is about sharing our feelings and our experiences with people who have earned the right to hear them. Being vulnerable and open is mutual and an integral part of the trust-building process. Because sharing appropriately, with boundaries, means sharing with people whom we’ve developed relationships that can bear the weight of our story. The result of this mutually respectful vulnerability is increased connection, trust, and engagement." - Brene Brown, Daring Greatly“It’s never too late to be what you might have been.” - George ElliotAlso mentioned in this episode:

Swimming, One Day in August, a poem by Mary Oliver
“It is time now, I said,
for the deepening and quieting of the spirit
among the flux of happenings.
Something had pestered me so much
I thought my heart would break.
I mean, the mechanical part.
I went down in the afternoon
to the sea
which held me, until I grew easy.
About tomorrow, who knows anything.
Except that it will be time, again,
for the deepening and quieting of the spirit.”
