This is a Fan Fav episode. One of the hardest things to accept as an adult is that many of the beliefs you have about yourself and the world you live in were developed from a childhood where you didn't know any better and you weren't equipped with the resources or capacity to process the complexities of life happening all around you. Those experiences helped you shape the story you tell yourself today. Whether the story is good or bad is irrelevant considering that chances are the story isn't even accurate or factual. Marissa Peer is not just a best-selling author, she is a trained hypnotherapist that created Rapid Transformational Therapy, or RTT. She joins Lisa here to discuss the ideas from her latest book, Tell Yourself a Better Lie. Her tips and strategies are powerful to rewrite your story and create a narrative that gives you meaning, fulfillment and more happiness.

Understanding Labels and Diagnoses in Decluttering: Empowering or Limiting? This episode delves into the roles of labels and diagnoses such as ADHD, autism, OCD, and anxiety in the context of decluttering and organising. The hosts discuss how a diagnosis can provide clarity and relief but can also feel limiting or overwhelming. They share their personal experiences, emphasising the importance of individuality and the need for practical strategies that work with unique brain functions and habits. The conversation explores how labels can both empower and hold people back, providing insights and practical tips for working with neurodiversity in the decluttering process. Highlights include the significance of having fewer possessions and using labeled containers to maintain order, along with the value of self-awareness and ongoing learning.

Since 2009, rates of anxiety, depression, and suicidality among young people have risen sharply, and research points to smartphones and social media as major contributors.

We unpack the four harmful effects of excessive screen time: sleep deprivation, addiction, social isolation, and distraction. We also explore evidence-based solutions that work.

Episode 69 is a solo episode from me. I want to offer you all some insights around building hope- how it's messy and dark, not easy and joyful.

We'll also explore the concept of relative safety, and practice cultivating it in our own bodies. The purpose of this episode is to offer education and tools to help us navigate hard collective and personal times.

Ever watch your kid refuse to eat leftovers, take 20 minutes to put on socks, or panic over a crumb on their plate and think, “Okay… is this just a phase, or should I be worried?” If you've ever wondered whether your child's behavior is anxiety, perfectionism, or something deeper—this episode is your must-listen. Dr. Tamar Chansky, author of Freeing Your Child from Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder, joins us to break down the signs of OCD in kids—especially the ones most parents miss. She explains how OCD has nothing to do with being neat or liking things “just so.” Instead, it's about intrusive thoughts and mental rituals that can quietly disrupt a child's life. You'll learn what to watch for, how to talk to your child without shame, and the exact strategies that help kids separate themselves from the thoughts that feel so overpowering. If you're parenting a child who seems stuck, overwhelmed, or distressed by things that don't make sense on the surface—this episode could change everything.

Michael Twohig has spent years studying what happens when people try to fight their thoughts — and why that battle almost always makes things worse. As a psychologist, researcher, and leading expert in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), he's worked with countless people who felt trapped by their own minds, stuck in loops of overthinking, doubt, and mental exhaustion. In this conversation, he shares how ACT can completely change that dynamic, turning thoughts from something you fear into something you can live with.Instead of focusing on erasing or “fixing” thoughts, ACT teaches you to see them for what they are and move forward anyway. Michael draws from powerful real-world examples to show how people have gone from feeling powerless against their minds to living fuller, more meaningful lives — without waiting for the perfect thought or feeling to show up first. It's a practical, compassionate way to stop letting your mind run the show.Although not a standalone treatment for OCD, ACT can be helpful in conjunction with Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) therapy.Here at NOCD, we specialize in Exposure and Response Prevention therapy, the most effective therapy for OCD.

What does it feel like when your mind gets stuck on a loop, telling you again and again that you're a bad person? That's the reality of Pure OCD. In this episode of The OCD Whisperer Podcast, Kristina Orlova sits down with Sah D'Simone, spiritual teacher, humanitarian, and creator of the Somatic Activated Healing method, for an open and heartfelt conversation.   Sah shares his journey with intrusive thoughts that made him question his worth, how growing up in a Buddhist culture shaped his experience, and how the loss of his mother made everything even more intense. Instead of letting OCD take over, he's leaned into Buddhist wisdom, somatic healing, and service to others as powerful ways to heal.   Together, Kristina and Sah unpack how OCD fuels cycles of self-obsession and why real healing often begins with learning to slow down, relax, and be present. They talk about the role of evidence-based treatments like ERP and ACT, while also highlighting holistic practices that calm the nervous system and nurture recovery.   If you've ever felt trapped by your own thoughts, this conversation offers hope, practical tools, and a fresh perspective on what healing can truly look like.   The 3 things you'll learn in  today's episode: Why relaxation and not constant productivity is crucial for calming an OCD brain. How Pure OCD manifests and why labels can be both freeing and limiting. Practical ways to balance evidence-based OCD treatments with Buddhist-inspired mindfulness and self-compassion.

In this Dear DSO submission, a man reaches out from the middle of an eight-year sexless marriage. He's passive, anxious, and paralyzed by confusion—and he's not alone. So many men fall into this trap.In this episode, I walk through his message and break down what's really going on here: the anxious attachment, the avoidant wife, the therapy cycles that go nowhere, and the desperation that leads men to stay stuck for years. I also bring up a common thread I see in my community: many of these guys are neurodivergent—autistic, ADHD, or OCD—and they bond fast and deep, which makes walking away feel impossible.If this sounds like your story, you're not crazy—but you do need help. Watch to the end to hear what this man should do next—and what you can do if you're stuck too.
