Episode 32. Secrets Clients Never Tell (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Episode Summary Most people never say the true reason they hesitate to open up to a therapist or a counselor: fear of being judged. This episode looks at what the research actually shows about client secrecy in counseling and therapy. Studies find that the large majority of clients admit to withholding something from theirprovider at some point, most often around sex, suicidal thoughts, self harm, trauma, substance use, and financial shame. The episode traces why concealment happens, why suicida
Episode 31. Stop Calling it Gaslighting (Here's What It Actually Is) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
"Financial gaslighting" is everywhere online right now, but the term is used so loosely it's starting to lose its meaning. In this episode, I unpack where the phrase actually comes from, what genuine economic abuse looks like according to decades of validated research, and how to tell the difference between an honest money disagreement and something more serious. This episode includes a brief disclaimer at the start: it's for general education, not a clinical diagnosis. If any of it feels person
Episode 30. Manifestation, Minus the Magic! (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Manifestation is everywhere right now, vision boards, raise your vibration, lucky girl syndrome. But does any of it actually work? In this episode, I dig into the research behind manifestation, including a 2023 study linking manifestation belief to real financial harm, and Stanford neuroscience on why specific goals change what your brain actually notices and acts on. Then I walk through WOOP, a five-minute practical tool you can use on any goal, financial or otherwise. Less magic. More mechanis
Episode 29. Freedom in the Body (opens the original)
Read excerpt
This Fourth of July, I talk about the freedom living inside our body versus the external freedom we usually talk about. We typically talk about freedom as something external: no boss, no rules, nobody watching. But there's another kind of freedom that lives in your nervous system, and you can have all the external freedom in the world and still not feel it. This week I'm pulling in a definition from psychologist Irvin Yalom that reframes freedom as responsibility rather than escape, plus a look
Episode 28. What Therapy Actually Is (And Isn't) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
EPISODE DESCRIPTION Therapy gets misunderstood constantly. This episode draws the real line between coaching, counseling, and therapy (including how an LMHC differs from an LCSW), then busts five myths: that therapy is unstructured venting (it follows a theoretical orientation and often a DSM Five diagnosis and treatment plan),that it's only for crisis, that it always takes years, that seeking it means something is wrong with you, and that it only covers feelings, not money. Along the way: why s
