Mind In View

We decided to go off protocol and have a little fun for once! In this episode, we try to stump each other with fun facts we think the other person might not know. Since neither of us have a filter, we expected this to be hard. Plot Twist: we might be more secretive than we realized! Tune in to hear about Kate, who has asked "whats a superbowl" is actually Philadelphia Sports Royalty! And perhaps less surprising, how Thea's legendary dorky-ness has deep roots. Have some fun with us!

Why is it so much easier to focus on the negative aspects of ourselves? Why is being positive toward ourselves SO HARD? In this episode we explore why this might be the case and what we can do about it. We also discuss ways we've fallen into the traps of negative self-talk in our lives, and how we've worked our way out of those traps!

OMG its our 100th episode!!!! We are so excited and proud we've made it this far! In this episode we talk about self-care and ask if we are allowed to have fun with it. Habits always seem like work but here we are talking about the possibility of enjoying things we do for self-care. Join us as we explore the possiblities!

Have you ever cried at work? Or had a panic attack during a social outing? Well, it can feel very overwhelming and embarassing! In this episode we unpack some of these moments, and talk about what we did and how it felt. The interesting thing is that we aren't worried about being "too excited" in a work setting or "too happy" at a social event, so again we are talking about expressions society deems 'inappropriate' like sadness and anxiety. Time to break stigma around these taboo emotions and expressions!

In this episode we get down and dirty about depression and what it looks like and feels like and we talk about the CBT technique of Behavioral Activation. Kate sheds some light on this personally as she is engaging with this on her own mental health journey.

We haven't a guest for awhile so it was super fun to sit down and chat all things OCD with Amy Keller Laird, the founder of the new mental health website Club Mental. We talk normalizing mental health and talking about how it impacts us ALL! It's a fun one!

OCD is NOT JUST ABOUT WASHING HANDS! We know many of you know this, but always a good reminder. In this episode we explore the different ways that OCD can show up and how to deal!

Do you ever notice that you sabotage yourself when you really want something? Do you sometimes worry about what it would mean to care, to really give yourself fully to something? Well, we feel this way, AND we both feel it about this podcast! Join us for this meta episode where we talk about what it means to care about something, while at the same time fearing it's success.

Are you meh about resolutions? We are too, but we also see the benefit to setting intentions and having healthy habits. In this episode, we explore our relationship to these constructs, and decide whether to take or leave them. We DO think a healthy habit for you would be to listen to our podcast regularly and share it with people you like ;)

Do you ever feel trapped by the way you've always done things? But maybe you are scared to do it a different way because you've just "always done it that way". Well we have, and we have thoughts... and feelings about it. Come hang with us as we discuss how to shake things up even when it feels scary!
