Between The Lines – Episode: Unstuck with Dr. Emily Musgrove Ever feel like you’re spinning your wheels—stuck in the same old patterns, wishing for change but not sure where to start? This episode is for you! 🎧 Leanne and Chelle sit down with Dr. Emily Musgrove, clinical psychologist and author of “Unstuck,” to unpack practical, relatable strategies for moving through life’s challenges (without the jargon!). Dr. Emily brings warmth, wisdom, and a refreshing honesty about what it really takes to live by your values—even when life gets messy. In this episode:
  • Why pain is a universal part of being human—and how resisting it can keep us stuck
  • How to use your values as a compass, not a checklist
  • The real reason change feels so hard (spoiler: staying stuck can be even harder!)
  • Parenting truths: breaking old patterns, repairing ruptures, and embracing imperfection
  • The power of self-compassion, mindfulness, and making choices that align with what matters most
  • Dr. Emily’s own journey writing “Unstuck” and balancing life as a parent, professional, and author
Whether you’re a parent, a therapy-curious listener, or just someone looking for a little hope and practical wisdom, you’ll walk away with new tools—and a reminder that you’re not alone in the hard stuff. ✨ Discussion prompt: What’s one value you want to live by more intentionally this week?
