About this listen
Therapy isn’t just sitting on a couch and crying — though yes, sometimes that happens, too. In this episode, I take you behind the scenes of my own mental health journey and share the lessons I’ve learned after working with more than ten therapists before finding “the one.”
We’ll talk about:
✨ The nap session that changed everything
✨ How daily check-ins and mood tracking transformed my sessions
✨ The tools that actually work — grounding, STOP skill, HALT check, and opposite action (with real-life examples!)
✨ Setting boundaries and learning that peace > people-pleasing
✨ How therapy made me a calmer parent and helped me respond with grace instead of guilt
✨ Why safety plans are lifesavers (yes, mine includes snacks)
✨ The therapy “homework” that secretly works
This episode is warm, chatty, and a little silly — proof that mental health conversations don’t always have to be heavy. Whether you’re new to therapy, deep into your healing journey, or just curious, I hope this episode feels like a cozy, encouraging conversation with a friend.
Take a deep breath, grab a drink, and let’s talk about what therapy has taught me — and how you can start using these tools in your own life, too.
