The Time-In Talks Podcast
Join me (Tejal V Patel) Award-Winning Author and Mindfulness/Mediation Expert
Join me, Tejal V. Patel, award-winning author, mindfulness expert, and author of the upcoming book Chup! We Don’t Talk About That, for refreshingly real conversations about motherhood, spirituality, personal growth, healing, and the things we were told not to talk about.
Time-In Talks is a space to pause, go within, and explore the wisdom that helps us navigate motherhood and life with more awareness, intention, and authenticity.
We’ll talk about the messy, beautiful, and sometimes uncomfortable parts of being human — from motherhood and identity to relationships, emotional healing, spirituality, personal development, cultural conditioning, and the conversations we’ve learned to keep quiet.
Expect soulful solo episodes, honest conversations with inspiring experts and fellow moms, practical mindfulness and spiritual wisdom, and real-life tools you can actually use.
Some episodes will challenge you. Some will make you laugh. Some might make you uncomfortable. And hopefully, all of them will make you think.
Because sometimes the answers we’re looking for begin when we finally take time in.

[EP 122] Stop Blaming And Complaining And Start Healing Yourself.
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Let’s be honest—blaming your parents, your partner, or your past feels good in the moment. But staying stuck in blame mode? That’s emotional quicksand.
In this episode, we’re getting real about the hidden payoff of complaining, why venting keeps you from healing, and how to shift from reaction to responsibility—without bypassing your pain or excusing bad behavior.
If you’re tired of spiraling in “Why am I like this?” and ready to step into “What can I do with this?”—this one’s for you.
🎧 Tune in and learn:
– Why blaming is a form of emotional outsourcing
– How to recognize if you’re in a complaint loop
– The mindset shift that turns triggers into teachers
– Somatic tools to move from reaction into healing
This episode is a loving call-out with zero shame—just truth, growth, and a little tough love. Let’s stop circling the wound and start doing the work.
