OCD and anxiety can sometimes involve some pretty taboo and embarrassing topics. We talk about it all here. No shame, no hiding - let's do this.
Take me with you on a walk, listen to me while you're doing house chores. I'm here to hold you accountable and give you that kick in the butt if needed.
You won't find calming techniques or coping skills here. Well, at least not the kind that you're probably used to getting on podcasts.

Research shows that, up to 80% of the time, professionals will misdiagnose OCD when it is not a clear-cut, conventional subtype or manifestation (e.g., fear of germs, needing to have things be perfect). The frequency with which OCD is misdiagnosed has devastating and significant impacts. In this episode, I talk about why OCD gets misdiagnosed […]
In this episode, I talk about my opinions regarding what recovery looks like when you have OCD or anxiety.

I also talk about… Like this […]
