In this powerful episode of A Voice and Beyond, we’re joined by Dr. Tracy Latz — renowned integrative psychiatrist, metaphysical healer, and author of Bye-Bye Self-Sabotage: Drop Your Baggage, Love Your Life.

With over 35 years of experience in both clinical and holistic practices, Dr. Latz shares her unique approach to healing emotional pain, self-sabotaging patterns, and limiting beliefs. Together, we explore the “shrink’s greatest hits” — like shame, fear of the unknown, heartbreak, and imposter syndrome — and reveal quick, evidence-based techniques to release them.

From 90-second Qigong emotional resets to the famous “La Cucaracha” technique for handling toxic people, this episode is filled with practical tools, deep wisdom, and Tracy’s trademark sense of humour and heart.

If you’ve ever felt stuck in old patterns, overwhelmed by anxiety, or just ready to reclaim your full potential, this episode is for you.

On this week’s transformative episode of A Voice and Beyond, Marisa sits down with Renee Zukin, author, educator, writing coach, mental health advocate, and the courageous voice behind the book Every Day, I’m Brave, which is part memoir, part manifesto, and entirely a call for radical bravery.

Renee’s story blends personal struggle with psychological insight. She lived for decades with crippling anxiety, masking her internal chaos with achievement, productivity, and perfectionism, until she was diagnosed with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) in adulthood.

In this deeply compassionate and raw conversation, Renee opens up about:

• Growing up with undiagnosed OCD and high-functioning anxiety
• The cost of pretending to be okay — and what happens when we stop
• How procrastination and self-sabotage are often fear in disguise
• Healing after a late-in-life diagnosis
• How to take courageous action even when fear doesn’t disappear
• Why honesty is the most powerful mental health tool we have
• Why “trust your gut” is dangerous advice for anxious minds
• The hidden ways fear shapes our relationships, identity, and choices

If you’ve ever lived with anxiety, masked your needs, or felt afraid to take up space, this episode will touch your heart, speak to your story, and remind you that you are not alone.
