Welcome back to the second episode of our “Sibling Sit-Down” series, where we’re exploring sibling relationships and all the factors that shape the emotional dynamics created between them. Today, we're joined by Támara Hill, licensed clinical child and family therapist who has built an online platform by making mental health information accessible to the masses. We’re getting into questions like, what happens when siblings fall into familiar roles? How can parents nurture healthy relationships among their children? And what can adult siblings do to heal old wounds and strengthen their bonds? With so many elements in the mix, no one set of siblings has the same relationship as another.

Let's talk about body image and how to stop comparing yourself to other in this interview with author Deb Schachter. Learn the skills to Regulate your Emotions, join the membership: https://courses.therapyinanutshell.com/membership Rethinking Body Image from a Somatic Perspective with Deb Schachter Most of us try to fix body image by changing how we look — dieting, working out harder, or comparing ourselves to others. But what if real healing starts on the inside? In this conversation with somatic therapist Deb Schachter, we explore a radically different approach to body image — one that begins with listening to the body, rather than judging it. Deb explains how our relationship with our body is shaped by early experiences, trauma, and disconnection, and how we can begin to repair that relationship through awareness, compassion, and presence.

The sections on stress and the mind-body connection derive from the work of Stephen Porges (the Polyvagal theory), Peter Levine (Somatic Experiencing) Francine Shapiro (EMDR), and Bessel Van Der Kolk.

The best (and cheapest) therapy for those small things that get under your skin is sometimes a good venting session so you can get it off your chest and move on with your life! And if you're not privy to the first-hand vent-a-thon, then being a fly on the wall listening is hopefully equally therapeutic and also maybe entertaining. Welcome to Rant Therapy, a podcast short powered by the hosts of the Happy Eating podcast, Brierley Horton and Carolyn Williams, where we periodically share our real-life venting sessions with each other—AKA what we're “so over”. What's Brierley “so over” this week? Making A Dinner That No One Likes! Thank you for listening to Rant Therapy on the Happy Eating Podcast.

In this episode, Gabby Reece sits down with Anna Runkle, known online as the Crappy Childhood Fairy, to discuss her new book, 'Connectability'. Anna shares her personal journey of overcoming the long-term effects of growing up in a chaotic home filled with unpredictability, alcoholism, trauma and neglect. She emphasizes the importance of self-regulation, rebuilding trust and fostering meaningful connections with yourself and others. In addition, she sheds light on her own experience in therapy and the epiphany that changed her life and led her to the work she currently does. Though she admits therapy can be helpful for many, she brings up the idea that repetition and rumination weren't helping her move forward. Anna describes effective techniques such as written prayer and meditation practices that have helped her and millions of others around the world. The episode also touches on healthy relationships, practical strategies for personal growth and Anna's unique, hands-on approach to healing childhood trauma.

It's a question we ask a lot on this show: do you have a mental health problem or is the problem actually rooted in the world you live in? Psychologist Dr. Jonathan Mathias Lassiter says contemporary society lives under three different assumptions: there's not enough to go around, kill or be killed, and us versus them or divide and conquer and this results in people valuing individualism, competition, and materialism. This way of living, he says, is a result of white dominance or whiteness and it is a distortion of the way humans are meant to live and therefore leads to things like racism, sexism, homophobia, and the brutality of human beings to one another. Dr. Lassiter, author of How I Know White People Are Crazy and Other Stories says whiteness is not a mental health disorder but it is a mental health problem that we all need to face. Dr. Lassiter tells his own story, growing up with a chronic illness, gay, and Black in the South and eventually earning his PhD. in psychology. As he came to understand psychology and the way the world works, he noticed the impact of society's built-in obstacles on his own mental health journey and among the students and clients he has helped.Thank you to all our listeners who support the show as monthly members of Maximum Fun.Check out our I'm Glad You're Here and Depresh Mode merchandise at the brand new merch website MaxFunStore.com!Hey, remember, you're part of Depresh Mode and we want to hear what you want to hear about.

After decades of therapy, self-help books, and mental health work, I still didn't know what "fun" felt like. Then I asked ChatGPT one honest question about my problems and the response changed everything. This isn't about replacing your therapist. It's about using AI as the sherpa your therapist can't be. The one that gives you the action plan, not just the validation. In this episode, we break down: ✅ How to prompt AI like a life coach (not a search engine) ✅ Why maintenance ≠ joy (and why that matters) ✅ The permission you've been waiting for to prioritize ease over achievement ✅ How to Marie Kondo your digital life and actually find what brings you peace If you've been stuck in the loop of "self-care" that feels like work, this one's for you.

On this episode, Chris & Koi call up some friends to find out if people can heal in the same place they were hurt at?
In this timely episode, Dr. Chloe Carmichael — clinical psychologist, USA Today bestselling author of Nervous Energy, and longtime educator — returns to Noggin Notes to explore why free speech matters in therapeutic settings and how self-censorship can damage both therapists and clients. We dig into the practical and ethical stakes: how open dialogue supports accurate diagnosis, trust, and psychological growth; how fear of controversy or professional consequences leads clinicians to self-censor; and the downstream mental-health costs when people (therapists or clients) silence honest thought and feeling. Dr. Chloe draws on clinical experience, research, and her work teaching clinicians to explain why courageous, curious conversation is often central to healing — and how constricted speech can worsen anxiety, shame, and isolation. Whether you're a clinician, student, or someone seeking therapy, this conversation is an urgent, compassionate case for protecting honest speech in the therapy room — and for noticing how self-silencing affects mental health in everyday life. Mental health conditions, such as depression or anxiety, are real, common and treatable. And recovery is possible.

In Episode 219 of the Transition Drill Podcast, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) Brett Ryan has spent nearly two decades helping first responders and military veterans confront trauma, rebuild relationships, and reclaim their lives. Brett shares how he founded Brett Ryan Counseling and built a private practice trusted by police officers, firefighters, and military service members.Brett explains how trauma affects those who serve on the front lines and why many still struggle to seek help. He reveals how methods like Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) are transforming the way first responders and veterans process stress, recover from post-traumatic experiences, and reconnect with family.From his early years in ministry to his advanced clinical training, Brett's story is one of purpose and compassion. He discusses the stigma surrounding therapy, how confidentiality and trust are crucial for those in uniform, and the growing shift among younger first responders who now see therapy as mental maintenance rather than a last resort.This episode goes beyond the surface to explore what real healing looks like for those who protect others daily. It's a powerful conversation about resilience, emotional health, and the courage it takes to heal from the inside out.The best podcast for military veterans, police officers, firefighters, and first responders preparing for veteran transition and life after service.

In this episode, Merlin Matthews, founder of Man Academy, explores how men can move from isolation to connection, from being “lone warriors” who suppress emotions to connected men who grow through community and accountability. From childhood trauma and dissociation to running a global charity and now creating a movement to halve the male suicide rate, Merlin's story is as complex as it is hopeful. He shares what he's learned about breaking free from conditioning, such as the pressure to “man up,” hide emotions, and go it alone. You'll learn:Why so many men get trapped in “doing it all alone” and how to stop.How childhood conditioning shapes emotional disconnection in adult men.Why “doing the work” means applying insights, not just collecting them.The power of men's groups and accountability to help men heal and grow.Simple starting points for any man to begin his own reconnection journey.Why open, honest connection is the antidote to loneliness and self-doubt.Why listen: This is a grounded, honest conversation about what it takes to become a fulfilled, emotionally capable man in a noisy world. Merlin offers a rare mix of candour and practical wisdom, showing that the real path to growth begins when we stop doing it alone.If you want to connect with Merlin, visit his website: man.academyMerlin's suggested reading list:MEN'S WORK:Manhood, Steve Biddulph: King, Warrior, Magician, Lover: Rediscovering the Archetypes of the Mature Masculine, Robert L.

Most therapy isn't designed for OCD — and that's the problem. A lot of therapists mean well but use approaches that make symptoms worse, not better. That's why specialized treatment matters. In this video, Dr. Patrick McGrath explains what separates general talk therapy from real OCD care, and why Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) is the only evidence-based way to break the cycle.NOCD specializes in Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) therapy.

In a world that celebrates hustle and overwork, many Christians are exhausted, feeling like they're constantly running on empty trying to be perfect. In this episode, we're joined by Valerie Adjorlolo, a nurse and a champion for Christian femininity, who is on a mission to redefine rest. Valerie shares with us her personal journey from a culture of burnout and overwork to a life of spiritual freedom. By exploring biblical foundations from Genesis to the story of Elijah, she reveals why rest is not a reward for a job well done, but a sacred invitation from God to release control. You will learn practical and tangible tips for finding physical, mental, and spiritual rest in a 24/7 world. Get ready to challenge your mindset, embrace your God-given design, and discover that rest isn't lazy—it's the foundation for everything. A quote from the Bible: Be STILL and know that I am God (Psalm 46:10) Topics covered: Christian rest, biblical rest, Christian productivity, Christian femininity, overcoming burnout, work-life balance, rest and faith, Christian women's content, spiritual freedom, surrender to God, Christian living, over-worked nurse, feel guilty when resting. Want to dig a bit deeper? Here is the Biblical Foundation of Rest. Genesis 2: God rested on the 7th day—not because He needed to, but to model rest Exodus: God invites Israel to stop and rest in Him Rest as both physical and spiritual—an invitation to return to the Lord Biblical Story of Elijah (1 Kings 19) Matthew 11:28 – Come to me, I will give you rest Scriptures for Encouragement Psalm 4:8 – "In peace, I will lie down and sleep…" Psalm 3:5 – "I lie down and sleep; I wake again…" Matthew 6:34 – "Don't worry about tomorrow…" Matthew 11:28 – "Come to me, all who are weary…" Did you enjoy this episode and would like to share some love?

Abby and Patrick are joined by Nick Stock and Nick Peim, authors of the new book The Lacanian Teacher: Education, Pedagogy, and Enjoyment. From the origin stories teachers tell about themselves to the ways the classroom looms large in our memories, popular media, and political rhetoric, it's a conversation about education at the intersection of fantasies, reality, vocations, anxieties, addictions, and more. What are the narratives that drive people to study and to teach, and what are the satisfactions and frustrations that come with learning? How do credentials and rules work in tandem with transgression and license? How do our expectations of acquiring knowledge survive, or get dashed, by disillusionment when we finally “get” it? Can we ever truly learn anything – or is knowledge always unstable and transient? As Nick and Nick explain, a Lacanian perspective is singularly helpful for confronting these questions and more. Walking through Lacan's theories of lack, identification, and institutional discourses, they also explore why so many people find the figure of Jacques Lacan himself so alluring.The Lacanian Teacher: Education, Pedagogy, and Enjoyment: https://link.springer.com/book/10.1007/978-3-031-93018-8Have you noticed that Freud is back?

Childhood trauma can turn into CPTSD which has pervasive symptoms throughout your life, but you can learn to heal from childhood trauma. Learn the skills to Regulate your Emotions, join the membership: https://courses.therapyinanutshell.com/membership Emotional Flashbacks video: https://youtu.be/oVLHysMGi8o?si=oJZy76o957LNranw Relationships after Childhood Trauma: Coming soon Complex PTSD: From Surviving to Thriving by Pete Walker is a compassionate, practical guide for understanding and healing childhood trauma, CPTSD, and complex trauma. Walker explains how chronic abuse or neglect in childhood wires the nervous system for danger, leading to symptoms like emotional flashbacks, toxic shame, harsh inner critic attacks, and difficulty with boundaries. He introduces the 4F survival responses—fight, flight, freeze, and fawn—showing how they develop as protective adaptations to childhood trauma but can block healthy adult relationships. Healing, he says, begins with recognizing emotional flashbacks, shrinking the inner critic, and practicing self-compassion through “reparenting” the inner child. Walker emphasizes building healthy boundaries, grieving childhood losses, and replacing self-abandonment with self-protection. His approach blends psychoeducation, practical tools, and validation, empowering survivors to reclaim self-worth, safety, and connection. Ultimately, the book offers a hopeful roadmap for healing complex trauma—moving from a life shaped by survival to one grounded in presence, love, and resilience.

Users are falling in love with and losing their minds to AI. Journalist Kashmir Hill exposes shocking recent cases of chatbot-induced psychosis and suicide.Full show notes and resources can be found here: jordanharbinger.com/1227What We Discuss with Kashmir Hill:AI chatbots are having serious psychological effects on users, including manic episodes, delusional spirals, and mental breakdowns that can last hours, days, or months.Users are experiencing "AI psychosis" — an emerging phenomenon where vulnerable people become convinced chatbots are sentient, fall in love with them, or spiral into dangerous delusions.Tragic outcomes have occurred, including a Belgian man with a family who took his own life after six weeks of chatting, believing his family was dead and his suicide would save the planet.AI chatbots validate harmful thoughts — creating dangerous feedback loops for people with OCD, anxiety, or psychosis, potentially destabilizing those already predisposed to mental illness.Stay skeptical and maintain perspective — treat AI as word prediction machines, not oracles. Use them as tools like Google, verify important information, and prioritize real human relationships over AI interactions.And much more...And if you're still game to support us, please leave a review here — even one sentence helps!
