Ep. 48 - Antidepressant Withdrawal, The Hard Truth with Brooke Siem

My next guest is no stranger to doing hard things but getting off antidepressants after 15 years may be one of the hardest.

In this episode, we discuss her introduction to them, life on them, and then what finally made her decide to try life without them. I recently read her book, May Cause Side Effects (May 2022) and could not put it down. It was so well written and her story was riveting.

I don’t think you have to be on antidepressants (I’m not) to appreciate or empathize with her journey and I highly recommend giving her memoir a read, right after you finish listening to the podcast ;)

I’m giving away a copy of the book to a lucky listener so head over to Instagram to this episode’s post to learn how to enter.

Ep. 44 - The Way to WANTing Yourself with Katie Horwitch

My guest today is no stranger to the negative self-talk we have all found ourselves doing at some point in our lives. We pick apart the way we look, the way we did or didn’t do something, how we do our jobs…the list is endless of all the thing we can speak negatively to ourselves about.

Katie Horwitch is the founder of the WANT: Woman Against Negative Talk, a multimedia platform to give women tools, tips, motivation, and inspiration to shift negative-self talk to positive + proactive. She’s also the host of the WANTcast: Women Against Negative Talk podcast, a mindset coach, public speaker, fitness instructor, writer, and now published author.

Join the conversation to learn more about her, where WANT started and what her debut book, Want Your Self, is all about.

Ep. 17 - Faith Over Fear with Dr. Jess Bohlke

I hope you love this episode as much as I do! I'm truly blessed to know this young woman and call her a dear friend. There was no way I was going to let this podcast go on much longer without you all hearing her story.

She shares her battle with Stage 3 ovarian cancer, devastating news that will make you want to reach through your headphones to give her a hug, and how she used the whole experience to better care for herself and her patients.

This girl is nothing short of amazing and I can’t wait for you to meet her.

Ep. 15 - Her Life Detox with Alicia Hill

I’m back! I’m so excited about this new year and what’s coming up in the podcast, starting with this beautiful soul.

In today’s episode, my friend, Alicia Hill, shares her tale of overcoming life toxicity. She talks about leaving her hometown to get away from toxic family relationships, how she handled mold toxicity in her home, and the mental health work she’s done to rid her life of toxic behaviors and people in order to live as her most authentic, intentional, and healthy self.

We covered a lot but I think you’re going to love hearing her story.
