What if we're approaching mental health all wrong? A revolutionary new therapy is debunking popular therapy narratives and changing how we treat anxiety and overthinking.We're continuing our Mental Health Awareness Month series with this introduction to Metacognitive Therapy (MCT), a groundbreaking new approach to treating anxiety, overthinking, OCD, depression, panic attacks, and more, without the usual coping strategies and trauma processing.Unlike traditional talk therapy, Metacognitive Therapy helps people break free from the cycle of worry, rumination, and distress by targeting the way we think about our thoughts — not the thoughts themselves.This is an especially exciting topic for me, as I've been working with the team at metacognitivetherapy.com as the Head Of Content for the past year, creating mental health resources including a website, social media channels, an app and a new podcast that's still to come. MCT might just revolutionize how we treat mental health disorders.I'm joined by Clinical Psychologist Sunniva Itland, founder of one of Norway's largest private psychology clinics and co-founder of metacognitivetherapy.com, to unpack this transformative therapy that's changing lives worldwide.This is for anyone who hasn't found a therapy or modality that's really working to improve their mental health. Welcome to anti-therapy therapy.Tune in to hear about:How MCT differs from CBT, talk therapy, and other traditional approaches to anxiety disorders, OCD and depressionSunniva's personal journey overcoming social anxiety using metacognitive therapy approachesWhy trauma-focused and emotion-processing therapies may be keeping you stuckWhy people develop mental health conditions VS othersHow common mental habits like overthinking, symptom monitoring, and reassurance-seeking fuel anxietyRecognizing unhelpful metabeliefs like “worrying keeps me safe” or “I can't control my thoughtsWhy positive affirmations, reframing, mindfulness, and traditional coping strategies often backfireResearch-backed techniques for immediately reducing anxiety, like worry postponement and detached mindfulnessMetacognitive Therapy resources:metacognitivetherapy.comhttps://www.instagram.com/metacognitive_therapy/https://www.linkedin.com/company/metacognitive-therapy/ For advertising and sponsorship inquiries, please contact Frequency Podcast Network.

I saw a TikTok about how your toxic traits can be the exact opposite of your love language, and I CANNOT stop thinking about it. If you're stuck in a cycle of self-sabotage, your toxic behaviours might be the inverse of your love language — aka your loathe language.

What would you do if failure was impossible? What's something you've always wanted to do, but never find "the right time"? To answer these questions, I started one little list in January, and it has completely changed my life. We all know about bucket lists — but what if the real game-changer isn't chasing what excites you, but confronting what scares you? Enter: The Fear List.Fear has been in the driver's seat of my life for too long, and I realized during my January meltdown, that my avoidance of discomfort and rejection were directly impacting my happiness and growth. Most of the things I was depressed about in my life could be traced to fear-based avoidance and inaction. That's why I created the fear list — it helps you rewire your brain to stop self-rejecting before you even try. Think of it like exposure therapy... this list of things will create proof that you can do scary things, and the more small uncomfortable things you do, the less scary the big things will feel. This episode is all about breaking out of fear-based paralysis and taking action on the things that hold you back. If you've been feeling stuck, playing small, or letting fear dictate your choices—this is your sign to flip the script.In this episode, I cover:✅ How my fear has kept me stuck in life, love, and career✅ The connection between fear, anxiety, and perfectionism✅ Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria (RSD) and why some of us with ADHD/neurodivergence fear rejection more✅ The power of exposure therapy and why courage is a muscle✅ How to create your own Fear List to build confidence, resilience, and momentum✅ Questions that will help you brainstorm your fear list✅ Getting honest with yourself about the stories you're telling yourself✅ Easy examples of things you can include on your fear list✅ What's on my list, and the wins I've already tackled (LITERALLY LIFE-CHANGING)✅ Why staying accountable and tracking your progress gamifies fear and makes it fun Remember: "The risk you're afraid to take, could be the one that changes your entire life."For advertising and sponsorship inquiries, please contact Frequency Podcast Network.

As a conflict-avoidant people-pleaser, I have a story in my head that I don't like the stress and pressure of being a manager. Delegating is hard, and giving feedback is uncomfortable. But that mindset has held me back from hiring, scaling, and taking my dreams to the next level.I know I'm not alone in this. A lot of us end up being managers over the course of our careers, but we're never taught how to be LEADERS — and there's a big difference. So I called in business mentor, entrepreneur and best-selling author Kelly Roach to help me navigate my limiting beliefs around hiring, leading better, and investing in a high performing team.Kelly is a former Fortune 500 Executive turned multi-million dollar entrepreneur/CEO, and founder of Kelly Roach Coaching, an 8-figure coaching and consulting company for entrepreneurs who are disrupting industries and scaling their dreams.

How do we show up better for people in crisis, or anyone facing tragedy? Because I think a lot of the time, we're getting it wrong. I believe that humans innately want to help, but societally, we were never taught HOW to help effectively.Whether someone we know is dealing with the aftermath of fires or natural disaster, job loss, a death, divorce/breakup, fertility issues, or health diagnoses… life is hard enough without the bombardment of platitudes and toxically positive “silver linings”.We need to learn the power of meeting people where they are in their processing, and get comfortable sitting with them in their pain. Because the world is a better place when we show up for one another.Tune in for helpful ways to support:Things you can say to someone instead of dismissive platitudesHow to support in a way that takes the burden off the ones who are sufferingBeing specific and proactive in the ways you helpOffering support tailored to your unique strengths and giftsDon't “bright side” or silver lining someone's griefLearn to ask questions and hold space for someone's griefHow to depressurize communication during crisisStick to the facts and avoid speculationPlay the long-game in support: be the friend who shows up months later, when they feel forgottenFor advertising and sponsorship inquiries, please contact Frequency Podcast Network.

Welcome back to another edition of “I'm the problem, it's me”, where I call bullshit on myself for the stuff I've been getting wrong, because we learn the most through our fuck-ups.If you're listening to this, you're probably dating or thinking about dating… but please (speaking from experience!), whatever you do, don't date someone for what you think their potential is.Do not date for what someone could be and ignore what they are right now. This is what leads us to fall for the idea of people and stay much longer in bad relationships than we should… a recipe for abandoning yourself.So here's my solution. Date for progress, instead. Because we're all a work in progress.Tune in to hear about:Why the “I can fix them” attitude isn't fair to your partnerStop telling yourself stories about who someone could be and accept them for who they are nowWhy we shouldn't pressure our partners too much to changeHow to date for progress and unlock your partner's vision of their own potentialSharing and building out a vision for the futureWhy dating for a specific metric of success or money isn't always a good ideaMy framework for gaging progress and potentialOur show is produced by:Gillian Berner, Host, Producer & EditorOlivia Nashmi, Audio EngineerCarolyn Schissler, Designer & Web ProducerFor advertising and sponsorship inquiries, please contact Frequency Podcast Network.

Are you feeling lonely and disconnected? There's a phenomenon right now I'm seeing in friendships, where we get stuck in the “catching up” loop.As we get older and enter our “splinter era” of different schedules, different priorities, and different life stages, it can feel like our friendships constantly take the backseat. We're relegated to a one-dinner-a-month maintenance catchup that keeps us stuck in an endless loop of recounting our memories instead of making new ones.I miss the intimacy and close bonds we got in our teenage years and early 20s when sleepovers and shared meals and weekend getaways were the norms.So how do we go deeper in our friendships to create more intimacy?Tune in as I dive deep on:Why creating memories is more important than quick catchupsHow novelty and exciting experiences create lasting memoriesWhy some cities and places prioritize close community more than othersCombatting loneliness in places that feel isolatingThe case for doing monotonous daily tasks like grocery shopping togetherWhy being generous and accepting help will bring you closerSkipping the catchup coffees for a new experience or adventureWhy we need to lean into hard conversations with a goal of resolutionThe 3 Fs: Friendships, flexibility and forgivenessOur show is produced by:Gillian Berner, Host, Producer & EditorOlivia Nashmi, Audio EngineerCarolyn Schissler, Designer & Web ProducerSara Valentine, Content ProducerFor advertising and sponsorship inquiries, please contact Frequency Podcast Network.

It's World Mental Health Day this week, and we're having lots of important conversations to increase awareness around emotional wellbeing. I called in Trauma Therapist Simone Saunders to learn more about somatic therapy, how our mental health impacts our physical health, and how trauma and distress shows up in our bodies.Anxiety and mental illness can show up in so many ways physically — from getting sweaty and experiencing heart palpitations or nausea, to general posture and shoulder stiffness, gut issues, and sleep problems. More and more we're seeing physical diagnoses like chronic pain and IBS linked back to trauma and nervous system dysregulation. And it doesn't always have to be a big T trauma... we talk a lot in this interview about how repeated micro traumas can build up to have the same impact. So if you want to take control of your mental health and expand your techniques and awareness, this episode is a must-listen. Simone has a Master's in Clinical Social Work, with a specialization in trauma, emotional regulation, anxiety and depression. As a trauma therapist and educator she has over 800,000 followers across her Instagram and TikTok accounts, the cognitive corner, where she helps people understand the connection between the mind and body and patterns that your nervous system engages in.Tune in to hear more about:Signs we might struggle to regulate our emotions and nervous system, and the best tools for nervous system regulationThe typical survival responses we cycle through when triggeredNavigating familial relationships or partnerships that trigger the dysregulation loopUnhelpful coping strategies that might make you feel worseCognitive bypassing: The difference between intellectualizing and feelingHow trauma manifests physicallyWhat if you can't remember your trauma?Somatic therapy techniques and processing stored traumaBuilding a life that's healthy for your nervous systemNavigating the loneliness and isolation on our mental health journeyFollow Simone on Instagram and TikTok.Our show is produced by:Gillian Berner, Host, Producer & EditorOlivia Nashmi, Audio EngineerCarolyn Schissler, Designer & Web ProducerSara Valentine, Content ProducerFor advertising and sponsorship inquiries, please contact Frequency Podcast Network.
