Dr. Dolores Fazzino, Nurse Practitioner, Medical Intuitive, Energy Whisperer
In this episode of The Dr. Dolores Show, we delve into the profound power of a humble heart.
Discover how humility can open doors to greater self awareness, foster stronger relationships, and unlock your true potential.
The Dr. Dolores Show: Power of Humility
Humility is often misunderstood, but it’s not about self deprecation or weakness.
It’s about recognizing your strengths and weaknesses with equanimity and approaching life with an open and receptive mindset.
Here’s a closer look at 6 takeaways from this week’s Dr. Dolores Show on the power of being humble.
1. Humility Aligns You with Spiritual Values
At its core, humility is the bridge between self awareness and spiritual alignment.
By embracing humility, you allow yourself to operate from a place of authenticity and openness, creating space for deeper spiritual growth.
Dr. Dolores Fazzino eloquently stated, “Overcoming pride is the essential step to cultivate humility”
This is a reminder that letting go of ego is crucial for fostering genuine connections with your higher self and others.
2. Energetic Connection: You Are Never Alone
In moments of isolation, it’s essential to remember that we are energetically connected in ways that transcend physical boundaries.
The podcast emphasized, “We are more energetically connected than anyone knows.”
This awareness can bring comfort and strength, especially during challenging times, reminding us of the invisible threads that bind us to others.
3. The Present Moment Unlocks Humility and Self-Awareness
Living in the present moment isn’t just a mindfulness practice, it’s a gateway to self awareness and humility.
By staying grounded in the now, you can observe your thoughts and emotions without judgment, allowing your true self to emerge.
As the Dr. Dolores noted, “By being in the present moment, [you] allow selfawareness to operate with humility.”
4. Venting vs. Complaining: Understanding Emotional Release
Emotional expression is vital for well being, but it’s important to differentiate between venting and chronic complaining.
Venting releases built up energetic pressure, providing relief and clarity.
However, chronic complaining perpetuates the same negative energy that created the initial discomfort.
Striking a balance between these two can lead to healthier emotional processing and improved relationships.
5. Receive Without Criticism or Judgment
Openness to new information is a hallmark of humility.
The podcast encouraged listeners to “allow yourself to receive the information without going into criticism or judgment.”
This mindset fosters learning, growth, and connection, enabling you to approach life’s challenges with grace and understanding.
6. Balancing Ego and Heart: The Path to Flow
Achieving harmony between the ego and the heart is essential for balance in life.
When these two aspects coexist peacefully, supported by humility, you create a state of flow that nurtures your personal and spiritual development.
As the podcast beautifully stated, “When we’re able to play nicely in the sandbox with our ego and our heart space and have humility, we are creating balance and flow in our lives.”
Join Dr. Dolores as she explores practical strategies to cultivate humility in your daily life and experience the transformative benefits it brings.

Dr. Dolores Fazzino, Nurse Practitioner, Medical Intuitive, Energy Whisperer
In this episode of The Dr. Dolores Show, we delve into the transformative power of appreciation and explore how cultivating an appreciative mindset can positively impact our lives.
Dr. Dolores discusses the numerous benefits of appreciation, including reduced stress, improved mood, enhanced relationships, and even better physical health.
She explains how appreciation can activate the parasympathetic nervous system, counteracting the stress response and promoting relaxation, fostering positive thought patterns and emotional resilience.
The Dr. Dolores Show: Power of Gratitude
Gratitude is more than just a fleeting moment of thankfulness, it’s a transformative feeling that has the potential to shift your energy, enhance your relationships, and bring inner peace.
Here’s how you can harness the power of gratitude to deepen your connection with yourself and others.
What is Gratitude?
At its core, gratitude is a feeling of thankfulness that often carries a sense of indebtedness.
It’s not merely about acknowledging what you’ve received, it’s about embodying that energy of appreciation within your entire being.
But how do you truly tap into this profound state?
Feeling Gratitude in Your Body
One of the simplest yet most powerful ways to connect with gratitude is through your body.
Take a moment to pause and go inward.
As you focus on the sensations within your body while embracing the energy of appreciation, you may notice a warmth or lightness.
This physical awareness grounds you in the present moment and strengthens your connection to gratitude.
Genuine Appreciation vs. Pity
It’s essential to differentiate between helping others from a place of genuine appreciation and doing so out of pity.
When your actions stem from pity, they lack the authentic energy that true appreciation carries.
Genuine appreciation uplifts both you and the recipient, creating a positive exchange of energy that fosters growth and mutual respect.
The Best Way to Tap into Appreciation
If everything in life is energy, then tuning into the frequency of appreciation becomes a powerful tool.
The best way to do this is to focus on the present moment.
What’s happening around you?
More importantly, what are you sensing within yourself?
By centering your awareness on the here and now, you create space for genuine gratitude to flow.
Expressing from the Heart
To truly live in a state of gratitude, allow yourself to feel and express your emotions from a genuine heart.
This means being open, authentic, and unfiltered in your appreciation.
When your actions and words come from a place of sincerity, they resonate more deeply with others and amplify the positive energy you emit.
Reaching Nirvana Through Gratitude
Gratitude has the power to bring inner peace.
When you reach a point where you can appreciate life and feel secure in the belief that you’ll be okay regardless of circumstances, you’ve tapped into a state of nirvana.
This unshakable peace is the ultimate gift of gratitude.
The Ripple Effect of Appreciation
Dr. Dolores Fazzino highlighted a compelling truth: “When you’re able to appreciate things in your life and appreciate others, people will bend over backwards to please you.”
This insight underscores the relational power of gratitude.
When people feel genuinely appreciated, they’re motivated to go above and beyond, not out of obligation, but because they feel valued.
The act of showing appreciation doesn’t just benefit you, it profoundly impacts those around you.
When others feel seen and valued, they are inspired to give even more.
This creates a positive feedback loop, strengthening your relationships and fostering a culture of mutual respect and kindness.
Remember the importance of focusing on the small joys in life and finding silver linings in challenging situations.

What to Look for In This Episode of The Dr. Dolores Show:
Gratitude is a feeling of thankfulness. It often implies and indebtedness. (5:41)
Go into your body and feel the sensations when you go into the energy of appreciation. (10:49)
Offering help out of pity rather than appreciation is not appreciation. (20:02)
If everything is energy, what is the best way to tap into appreciation? (22:36)
Focus on the present moment, what’s going on in the world and most especially what you are sensing within yourself. (23:22)
Allow yourself to feel and express yourself from a genuine heart. (24:11)
When you are able to feel like you’re going to be okay no matter what’s going on, you’ve reached nirvana. (25:43)
“When you’re able to appreciate things in your life and appreciate others, people will bend over backwards to please you.” Dr Dolores Fazzino (44:31)
When people feel appreciated they will take the extra step to do even more for you. (49:02)

A truck accident can be physically, financially, and emotionally damaging, and in some cases, fatal.
If you make it out of the truck accident, you’ll likely be challenged in several ways on the road to recovery.
How do you cope with life after a truck accident? And who can help you in this trying time?
Initial Steps After a Truck Accident
If you’re ever involved in a truck accident, these are the most important steps to follow first:
1. Get medical attention.
Your immediate priority needs to be getting medical attention.
In the immediate aftermath of the accident, you should get to safety and clear the area to prevent further injuries.
If you need emergency medical attention, seek it.
Even if you don’t feel you need medical attention, it’s important to follow up with an appointment, as it’s possible you experienced physical injuries without realizing it.
These initial appointments are very important for proving your case if you bring a claim against the person responsible for the accident.
2. Prioritize your health.
No matter what, health should be your top priority.
That means you should follow the guidance of your doctors, nurses, and other medical professionals, and it means you should attend all your follow up appointments as well.
In the aftermath of a truck accident, it can be difficult to juggle priorities like finances and personal responsibilities, but your health should always come first.
3. Contact an attorney.
A truck accident lawyer can help you understand the nature of your case, the legal options available to you, and the process for filing a claim against the party responsible for the accident.
The initial consultation is typically free, so you’ll have an opportunity to learn more and weigh your options before moving forward.
Legal action is going to be the best way to maximize your compensation.
Managing Physical Pain
There are many things you can do to manage the physical pain associated with your truck accident injuries, including:
1. Doctor’s advice.
The advice of your medical professionals should be your guiding star.
Listen carefully to their instructions and guidance and follow those instructions to the best of your ability.
If you have pain, describe it to them and ask them about remedies.
2. Pain medications.
Depending on the extent of your injuries, you may be prescribed medication to help you manage the pain.
If you’re not prescribed anything, you can use over the counter (OTC) pain medications, following the instructions carefully, to relieve your pain.
3. Rest.
Get as much rest as possible to help your body recover.
Again, listen to your doctor’s advice here, they’ll help you understand which activities are appropriate and how much rest you should be getting.
It’s a relatively simple practice that anyone can learn, though it can be challenging at the beginning.
Keep at this practice to get better at it and practice it several times a day, or whenever your pain is especially difficult to manage.
5. Light exercise.
Physical exercise promotes blood flow in your body and releases endorphins, which can help lessen the pain.
Accordingly, light exercise is often a valuable way to relieve pain, assuming you’re able to practice it safely.
Caring for Your Mental and Emotional Wellbeing
Being in a truck accident is traumatizing and stressful, and the aftermath can be mentally challenging.
Accordingly, it’s important to care for your mental and emotional wellbeing after an accident as well.
1. Stay mentally and physically active.
It’s a good idea to stay active.
Being busy is a distraction and is mentally rewarding, especially if you’re currently out of work.
Going out and participating in enjoyable physical activities is preferable, but if you’re mostly immobile, you can also stay busy with mentally stimulating activities like puzzles and classes.
Doing things you love can help you feel better in the moment and help you feel more satisfied with life, even when you’re somewhat limited in the things you can do.
Talking about your stress and pain to other people can help make it more manageable.
Simply being around other people can make you feel more emotionally fulfilled and connected.
Accordingly, you should take every opportunity you can to socialize, even if it’s just talking on the phone.
4. Ask friends and family members for help.
Don’t hesitate to ask your closest friends and family members for help and support when you need it.
What You Should Remember?
Being the victim of a truck accident can be physically, financially, and mentally devastating.
But with the help of a good lawyer, a good doctor, and the right set of strategies, you can manage this challenging time and eventually get back to your normal life.
Estra Roell is one of the coaches that we found this month and we did a little interview with her. She impressed us with her passion and commitment to her own values.
She has a very interesting career path that led her to coaching. From social worker to Montessori teacher and now an empowering life coach, she spent her career helping others discover their potential. After dedicating two decades to nurturing young minds, she found herself at a crossroads when changes in her workplace pushed her to reevaluate her path.
She didn’t know where to go and asked for help from a higher guidance. That help instantly appeared and pointed her in a direction to get out of the place where she felt stuck. From there, an encounter with the Law of Attraction and a powerful inner shift sparked her transformation into a life coach, where she now blends spiritual clarity with practical action to guide her clients toward their goals.
She integrates techniques like PSYCH K® to help clients achieve rapid belief changes and align their energy with their desires. Through a blend of mindfulness, empowerment, and brain balancing practices, she offers her clients the tools to create lives filled with purpose, joy, and clarity. Here is what she said.
Meet Life Coach Estra Roell:
Name: Estra Roell
Pillar: The Spirit, The Mind
Who is this coach for: Anyone seeking to discover their true heart’s purpose and transform their belief system to live a life they truly love.
How they can help: By using various coaching tools and techniques like PSYCH K® for rapid belief change, a values exercise to gain clarity about the top 5 values, and Active Listening just to name a few.
First of all, how are you and your family doing after these Pandemic times?
We are doing well.
Since I coach over the phone or through video conference, I was able to keep coaching.
My husband, who is a computer consultant, had a slow down but his clients are all back now.
How did the coronavirus pandemic affect your clients? Did it affect you at all?
My clients actually did well, making adjustments to remote work.
It didn’t affect my business, although it made my husband’s more difficult.
I think feeling cut off from family was the hardest for us.
What are the biggest lessons that you learned in this pandemic?
That the world can change rapidly and we need to be mindful, and stay positive in order to find the hidden lessons and opportunities.
We can view uncertainty as an opportunity for growth and new ideas, rather than be in fear or anxiety.
The Origin:
Tell us about you, your career, how you started with your coaching career?
I started out with training in peer counseling in college.
After graduation I worked as a social worker.
When my son was born I got interested in the work of Maria Montessori and went back to school to get my teaching certification in lower elementary Montessori.
I happily taught children for 20 years.
I left teaching for a number of reasons, including the failing health of my parents, who lived a good distance away.
Teaching had been my purpose and was fulfilling, but I now needed to discover what was next for me.
I was doing some direct sales and was grateful for the things I learned and that money was coming in, but I realized it wasn’t my landing place.
Then I received an email announcing a webinar presented by a woman named Christy Whitman who was starting a law of attraction life coaching academy.
It was just what I had been looking for and signed up for the year long training that night!
What was your biggest obstacle that you had to overcome in your life that made you who you are today?
I’d say leaving teaching, which I loved and had thought I’d do until a late retirement.
One of the prime factors in my leaving was the change in administration that took place.
I didn’t get along with my new boss.
The workplace that I had loved now became toxic for me.
I was angry and miserable most of the time.
Then, one night, sitting in my home office and thinking about how bad I felt, I had the thought that this couldn’t be the life I was supposed to live.
I didn’t know what to do, so I raised my eyes and shouted to the Universe, “I know there’s got to be a way out! Just show me the way out!”
As I looked back down, my eyes immediately fell on a little book on the new bookshelves my husband had put in.
The title of the book was,”The Way Out.”
I was astounded!
It had been given to me years before in a stack of books by a bookseller who was clearing out inventory.
It had been sitting in our basement for a long time.
So, I read it.
The basic message was to let go of the struggle and let your higher self take over.
While this sounded good, I didn’t know how to do it.
So I kept asking for guidance… and I got it.
I woke up one morning with a process in my head for achieving clarity on what I really wanted.
It worked quite well and a couple of months later I was offered an opportunity with a direct sales company that seemed to check all the boxes.
After awhile I realized that while it helped me in many ways, it wasn’t my highest joy.
Once again, I was needing some guidance.
I decided I needed some kind of book or process to help me figure out what was next that would feel like purpose and meaning.
Soon after that, I saw a promotion for Janet and Chris Atwood’s book, “The Passion Test” in my email!
I went right out to the bookstore to look into it and it was just what I needed.
By the time I was done with that I knew I wanted to do something like the passion test, but in a broader sense.
I focused on that thought and soon after Christy Whitman introduced me to coaching!
The training also opened me up to more clarity about my spiritual path and a deeper understanding of the Universal Laws.
The Coaching Style:
How do you innovate with coaching your clients?
One technique I use for rapid belief change is PSYCH K®.
It was originated by Rob Williams and is inspired by research in brain dominance theory, neuroscience and ancient mind and body wisdom.
The PSYCH K balances are designed to create balanced communication with both hemispheres of the brain.
While in this “whole brain” state, you can reprogram the subconscious mind with new, self enhancing beliefs that support your goals.
I’ve found this to be quite effective.
I really enjoy using this process in person, but it can also be done remotely.
What’s unique about your coaching approach?
I’m not sure how unique this is!
Nevertheless, I help my clients learn how important it is to “be” as well as “do.”
Currently, our society rewards “hard work” and effort.
But you can accomplish what you want more joyfully and easily by giving attention to the energy work first.
Then you take action, which is usually easier than if you were trying to make something happen out of effort.
So the flow is, get into alignment with your desires by feeling good.
Then act on your inspired ideas.
The energy work can encompass meditation, practicing law of attraction processes, exercise, journaling, singing and anything else that allows you to feel good.
What benefits do your clients get after working with you?
A sense of empowerment and clarity on their path.
Belief in themselves.
They have tools that they can use to be in alignment with their desires and create the lives they want.
Also, they know how to get back to feeling good after a setback.
Do you use any specific tools to be efficient with your clients?
I think it’s important to understand your top 5 values.
That way you have a compass to guide you in exploring your purpose.
I have a values exercise that helps with that process.
The Impact:
If you had a super megaphone that, when you speak into, the whole world will hear your message, what would you say?
Love each other and begin by loving yourself.
True purpose comes from your heart.
What is the greatest lesson you have learned in your life?
I’d say the knowledge that we are all souls and are here for a purpose, which is to grow, expand in love and evolve.
What that looks like for each of us is our own individual journey.
Your final thoughts?
I am committed to expanding people’s ideas about purpose.
It can certainly be about the work you do in the world.
When we do what we love and are making a contribution to the larger whole we feel fulfilled and are on purpose.
It’s also helpful to realize we can have more than one purpose at a time and over time.
Raising children to be their best selves is a purpose.
Caring for loved ones is purpose.
Volunteering is purpose.
Purpose is also about how you show up each day.
Are you coming from a place of love?
Are you expressing compassion and kindness?
Coming from the heart is true purpose and infinitely fulfilling.
Start by loving and honoring yourself.

Meet Life Coach Nailah Harris:
Name: Nailah Harris
Pillar: The Spirit, The Mind, The Heart
Who is this coach for: Individuals who are self motivated and seeking emotional healing, mindset transformation, and spiritual growth.
How they can help: By using psychological insights, spiritual wisdom, and personalized self care strategies as well as various coaching tools and techniques like personality tests, the Wheel of Life, and the Wheel of Complex Emotions just to name a few.
First of all, how are you and your family doing after these Pandemic times?
After the main course of the pandemic, things are definitely significantly tougher generally and in business.
How did the coronavirus pandemic affect your clients? Did it affect you at all?
The pandemic heavily affected my ability to network and gain consistent, returning clients, as well as over saturation of many markets, but not necessarily with quality services and products.
So lots of people are rightfully apprehensive when trusting people online.
I choose not to take it personally as a small soloprenuer who is a new face to many.
What are the biggest lessons that you learned in this pandemic?
The lessons I personally learned during the pandemic were:
1. Idle love, care, and respect are significantly different when actively practiced, be it of self or another person.
2. Forgive them even if they aren’t apologetic, it’s for you not them.
3. Don’t let the negative things you’ve experienced steal your joy and make you bitter.
4. Happiness depends on your attitude and mindset towards life.
The Origin:
Tell us about you, your career, how you started with your coaching career?
I assist passionate, self motivated individuals make the lifestyle and mindset changes necessary to experience genuine happiness, greater productivity, and a higher quality of life.
I, myself am passionate about spiritual, physical, and mental wellness and connectivity, as well as psychology and equitable changes, resource provision, and distribution to all.
I grew up in absolute chaos, traumatic experiences, and abuse, stuck and surrounded by people who are toxic to my own wellbeing…
Until I chose to want a different life experience and I was willing to do what I needed to without blaming anyone else for where I was (despite them having a direct hand or fault in my experience).
I had to see that I was allowing them to continue these behaviors by choosing to stick around for the wrong, misguided reasons.
I am also a psychology major and future therapist.
Mental health and healing have always played a large part in my life personally, my experiences with others, as well as finding the purpose for my life.
I truly live what I do and it’s simply a labor of love and care that lots of us, myself included, missed out on growing up, but it is what I would directly like to provide to others as an adult.
What was your biggest obstacle that you had to overcome in your life that made you who you are today?
The biggest obstacles that I have been able to overcome regarding who I am today, would have to be healing from several types of abuse and traumatic experiences, as well as learning to work with my perceived flaws and quirks, instead of actively working against them.
I also actively express more forgiveness, grace to myself and others, self love and outward unfiltered happiness and kindness.
And while it can rub some the wrong way, everyone isn’t meant for everyone, and that’s perfectly okay.
The Coaching Style:
How do you innovate with coaching your clients?
With my coaching clients specifically, I use psychological knowledge, therapy techniques, spiritual, mental, physical connectivity…
As well as information introduction, application, and self care in order to gain clarity, move forward for their best possible results, and increasing their internal happiness and overall quality of life.
What’s unique about your coaching approach?
I am deeply committed to the overall happiness and well being of others.
The techniques I use, the knowledge I share, and the actionable plans I offer have not only transformed the lives of my clients but have also played a pivotal role in my own personal growth.
Every method and practice I teach is something that has brought immense positivity and progress to my life.
I am here to share this abundance so that others, too, can experience the daily joy and fulfillment we all deserve.
What benefits do your clients get after working with you?
After working with me through either individual sessions or through a coaching program, my clients tend to see an increased feeling I overall happiness and wellbeing.
They report immense mindset transformation progress, as well as experiencing a higher quality of life in general, in addition to the abundance of reusable knowledge and wisdom provided.
Do you use any specific tools to be efficient with your clients?
I often create my own materials for in session use, but I also incorporate resources such as esoteric wisdom, personality tests and traits, the Wheel of Life, the Wheel of Complex Emotions, and many other customizable, reusable tools.
The Impact:
If you had a super megaphone that, when you speak into, the whole world will hear your message, what would you say?
Forgive whoever hurt you and do the self improvement work it takes to heal, and regain clarity, greater productivity, and happiness!
Do the work and see the results, I believe in you!
What is the greatest lesson you have learned in your life?
One of the greatest life lessons I have learned up to this point is that:
The truest form of internal happiness comes from within and is a choice that we must make, then actively put the lifestyle and mindset changes in place for the success of our happiness pursuits.
Your final thoughts?
Thank you so much for considering me for this wonderful opportunity and thank you to everyone trusting me as their coach.
Remember, being happy is a choice and while yes it is definitely hard work, it is the most worth it work I have done this far.
So pick up your head and know that even when you find it hard to believe in yourself, I believe in you, now let’s get healing!

Hey, incredible souls! 🌼 Let’s talk about the necessity of selfcare for neurodivergent individuals.
Imagine yourself as a beautiful flower growing amidst a concrete jungle, where the world doesn’t quite see your brilliance.
But you have the power to bloom by embracing selfc are as your nourishment.
Self care is not a luxury.
It’s your act of resistance, your way of thriving.
Why Prioritize Self Care?
Navigating a world that may not fully understand your neurodivergent experience can often feel overwhelming.
The daily grind, work demands, fitting in, meeting expectations, might sometimes leave you feeling out of sync, questioning whether you’re doing enough.
That’s when burnout creeps in like a storm cloud.
Burnout isn’t just about feeling tired…
It’s that soul deep exhaustion that leaves you uninspired and drained.
It’s your body and mind telling you that something needs to change.
This is where self care becomes essential, and not optional.
Bloom Where You Are Planted
Think of yourself as a unique flower, and just like any plant, you need sunlight and water to thrive.
Think of selfcare as your personal sunlight, replenishing your energy, celebrating your individuality, and honoring your needs.
Your environment may not be perfect, but you can reclaim your power and bloom right where you are. 🌸
Begin with the basics: Create moments in your day dedicated solely to YOU.
Whether that’s indulging in your favorite hobby, practicing mindfulness, or even taking a few minutes to breathe, these small acts of self care can help you reconnect with your essence.
Remember: Selfcare is an act of resistance against a society that might overlook your brilliance.
You’re not just surviving, you’re thriving by embracing who you are.
Setting Boundaries, Setting Yourself Free
Burnout, especially for neurodivergent people, is not something to brush off.
It can strip away your joy, passion, and even your authentic self.
The first step to overcoming burnout is asking: “What do I need right now?”
Setting boundaries is one of the most empowering forms of self care.
Think of boundaries as the framework that protects your emotional, spiritual, mental, and physical space.
When you establish boundaries, you communicate your worth and preserve your energy for what truly matters.
As Brené Brown wisely said,
“Daring to set boundaries is about having the courage to love ourselves, even when we risk disappointing others.”
Boundaries aren’t about shutting people out; they’re about prioritizing your well-being so you can thrive without burning out.
Imagine you’re building a garden.
Without a fence, the weeds of external expectations and demands can creep in, choking your growth.
But by setting clear limits, you nurture the soil of your mind, allowing creativity and peace to flourish.
Here are key steps to setting empowering boundaries:
1. Identify Your Needs
Reflect on areas where you feel drained.
Do certain interactions leave you feeling exhausted?
That’s a sign that you need to establish limits.
2. Communicate Clearly
Assert your needs without guilt.
It’s not selfish to protect your time and energy, it’s an act of self respect.
3. Follow Through
Once boundaries are set, stick to them.
As Oprah Winfrey says,
“You get in life what you have the courage to ask for.”
Setting boundaries is your armor, protecting your energy, reclaiming your time, and affirming that your needs come first.
It’s okay to say “no” or step back when things get overwhelming.
Your well being is always worth prioritizing.
By setting boundaries, you are not only freeing yourself from the weight of others’ expectations but also making space for your true self to emerge.
It’s the first step to creating a life where you can thrive.
Power Through Support and Connection
You’re not alone on this journey.
The neurodivergent community is filled with individuals like you, brilliant, passionate, and committed to authentic selfcare.
