What if healing from trauma isn’t about “fixing” yourself, but remembering that your brain already knows how to heal? 👀✨

In this episode of Get Psyched, we dive into Amy’s EMDR training experience and unpack how trauma-informed therapies like EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) support the nervous system, build safety, and gently guide the brain back toward balance.

We explore how trauma treatments are introduced in a way that feels supportive (not overwhelming), why resourcing is a cornerstone of EMDR, and how creating safety (internally and within the therapeutic relationship) can change everything. Because healing doesn’t happen in isolation, and the connection between therapist and client is often where the real magic lives.

Together, the gals explore:

🎙️ What EMDR therapy is and how it works

🎙️ Amy’s experience with EMDR training

🎙️ How trauma treatments are introduced safely and ethically

🎙️ The importance of resourcing and nervous system support

🎙️ Creating safety in trauma-informed therapy

🎙️ Why the therapeutic relationship matters so much

🎙️ How we’re hardwired toward healing, and how EMDR supports that process

Whether you’re a therapist, therapy-curious, or on your own healing journey, this episode is a reminder that your system isn’t broken... it’s doing its best. And with the right support, healing is possible!

Are New Year’s resolutions helping your mental health, or quietly burning you out? In this episode of the Get Psyched Podcast, we unpack the difference between resolution culture and intention setting, and why the way we approach change can deeply impact our emotional well-being, self-worth, and nervous system.

Resolution culture often tells us we need to fix or reinvent ourselves to be worthy. Intention, on the other hand, invites curiosity, compassion, and sustainable growth. We explore how shifting your mindset from “have to” → “get to” can reduce anxiety, increase motivation, and support long-term mental wellness.

Today, we explore:

🎙️ Resolution vs. intention and how each affects mental health

🎙️ Why resolution culture can fuel shame, perfectionism, and burnout

🎙️ The reframe from “don’t stop” to “keep going”

🎙️ Mindful social media use and protecting your emotional energy

🎙️ Becoming the creator of your own time (instead of racing against it)

🎙️ The psychology of manifestation (grounded, realistic, and self-led)

If you’re interested in mental health, emotional regulation, mindset shifts, self-growth, or wellness without the pressure, this episode is your permission slip to choose intention over overhaul.

Press play for a more compassionate, sustainable approach to personal growth... because you’re not a problem to be solved.

New year, same nervous system...and we’re checking in!

On this episode of Get Psyched, Lindsey kicks things off with a real-life New Year’s mental health check-in, a little pop culture banter (yes, Heated Rivalry 👀), and a deeper dive into what’s actually going on beneath our moods, motivation, and symptoms.

Lindsey shares her experience taking a neurotransmitter test and uses it as a jumping-off point for a bigger conversation: how biology, environment, and lived experience shape how we feel...without turning every symptom into a life-long label.

This episode is all about curiosity over judgment, context over pathology, and remembering that diagnoses are tools (not death sentences).

Today, the girls explore:

🎙️ A New Year’s mental health check-in (no pressure, just honesty)

🎙️ The cultural moment of Heated Rivalry

🎙️ Lindsey’s neurotransmitter test results and what they can (and can’t) tell us

🎙️ Why diagnoses are not fixed identities or forever stories

🎙️ How symptoms are often intelligent responses to our environment

🎙️ A non-pathologizing, compassionate lens on mental health and healing

If you’re tired of labeling yourself, over-analyzing every feeling, or assuming something is “wrong” with you, this conversation is your permission slip to zoom out, get curious, and breathe a little easier.

Listen in, get psyched, and start the year with understanding instead of self-judgment.

In this episode of Get Psyched, we’re diving deep into the emotional toolkit you actually need to navigate real life—with a little humor, a lot of honesty, and zero judgment (okay, maybe some pet peeves were named). If you’ve ever tried to logic your way out of a big feeling (hi, we all have), this one’s for you.

We explore why it’s so much easier to tell a dramatic internal story than to simply name what we feel… and how identifying the feeling underneath the story leads straight to the need that actually wants your attention. Spoiler: you’re only as “needy” as your unmet need, and there’s nothing wrong with needing anything.

You’ll learn how to decode emotions, meet your needs with compassion, and finally stop trying to out-think a feeling (because, really, how’s that working?). Plus, we break down what’s worth remembering, what’s worth releasing, and how to build emotional clarity that actually sticks.

The girls explore:

🎙️ How feelings point directly to your needs

🎙️ Why storytelling is easier than naming your emotions

🎙️ Turning feelings into clarity around unmet needs

🎙️ “Needy” as a myth—unmet needs as the truth

🎙️ Practical ways to meet your needs

🎙️ Why you can’t think your way out of a feeling

🎙️ What to remember, what to forget, and how to tell the difference

Perfect for anyone craving emotional intelligence, self-awareness, communication skills, mind-body connection, and honest personal growth. Tune in, get grounded, and get psyched.
