In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Sylvia Kalcinski, a family and marriage therapist and the host of the Dr. Sylvia K podcast. She currently lives in Miami with her husband and son and has made it her mission to support people in finding courage, strength and the right tools to feel better through therapy. 

Sylvia and I met during our book proposal group and felt this instant connection. We unpack her own unlearning journey and how she reflects on what unlearning has looked at during different stages of her life. Her unique ability to understanding how overwhelming emotions can feel like they take over and impact our well-being and relationships. She believes that while we can't get rid of our emotions, we can however learn to better manage them and improve stress management. She focuses in mindfulness, dialectical behavior therapy and systemic therapies.

In this conversation, Sylvia lets us into her journey of navigating her own sense of belonging, safety, and connection and what she has had to unlearn in order to interrupt her own thought patterns that have kept her stuck. This is a heart-filled episode that allows us to understand the connection between our underlying beliefs that we hold about ourselves can be connected to the imprint that traumatic experiences can have on us.
