Dysfunctionally Yours

When someone goes to prison, people tend to focus on the person who was incarcerated.

This week, we're talking about the people left behind.

Brittany and Chris share their experiences of having incarcerated siblings and the complicated reality that comes with it: grief, guilt, anger, hope, family dynamics, judgment, boundaries, and the pressure to keep showing up while trying to protect your own peace.

We explore the questions nobody asks, the losses nobody sees, and what it means to grieve someone who is still alive. Along the way, we also have an honest conversation about mental health, knowing when it's time to ask for help, and why being "strong" isn't always the flex people think it is.

If you've ever loved someone who kept making choices that impacted everyone around them, this conversation will probably feel familiar.

Because prison doesn't just affect the person serving the sentence. Sometimes it changes an entire family.

🎙️ Dysfunctionally Yours

Mental health isn't a destination you arrive at; it's a journey you keep taking.

This week, Brittany and Chris trade their planned topic for a much more honest conversation about what it looks like when life gets hard. While Chris shares what's helping him feel grounded and energized, Brittany opens up about moving through a difficult season and the reality that even people who talk about mental health for a living don't have it all figured out.

From health anxiety and sleep-punching husbands to self-care, vulnerability, and the power of simply showing up, this episode is a reminder that healing isn't linear...and some weeks, survival is the win.

Plus: turkeys, cruises, bathtubs, and the usual Dysfunctionally Yours chaos.

They talk birthday trips, emotional exhaustion, family boundaries, protecting your peace, making your home feel like yours again, AI guilt, dangerous stairs, elevator survival partners, Sabrina Carpenter, fruit TikTok drama, and the true crime documentary that sent Brittany into a parenting rage spiral.

Just two emotionally exhausted adults laughing through the chaos.

This week on Dysfunctionally Yours, Brittany and Chris go from throwing out their backs doing normal adult activities to unpacking one of the most relatable questions of adulthood:

What happens when you finally become your authentic self… and people decide they don’t like it?

They dive into big personalities, emotional expression, trauma responses, masking parts of yourself for safety, and the exhausting reality of constantly being told to “be yourself”- but only in ways that make everyone else comfortable.

From grief and people-pleasing to confidence, identity, therapy, and learning not to dull your sparkle, this episode balances humor and vulnerability in the most Dysfunctionally Yours way possible.

Also included:

If you’ve ever been called too loud, too emotional, too intense, too intimidating, or just “a lot,” this episode is for you.
