Number 1: 173: The Dark Side of the "Community Culture" Nobody Talks About
Access Kelly's Turn On Training here. Save your seat for Kelly's Turn on Training here. Everyone tells you that you need to be in a community, but what if that was one of the most dangerous things you could do? This is a solo episode, and I am walking through the arc of my own relationship to community, from Francis Weller's work on the village we never had, to the small circle of Waldorf mamas in Miami, to the plandemic years when intentional community felt like a lifeline. A lot of what I chased did not hold. Friend groups fractured over values. The sovereign communities collapsed under interpersonal conflict. Even the online spaces started to feel like surrogate families carrying weight they were never designed to carry. The tension I keep returning to is this: Community asks for a fixed set of shared beliefs. I am someone who evolves, changes my mind, and drops ideologies when they stop resonating for me. Those two things do not fit cleanly together. I also share what my friend Alyssa is doing that seems to be working, and why the ache I felt listening to her did not translate into wanting her life.

Number 2: 174: They've Brainwashed You to Think Psych Meds Are Good, But They Make You Worse
Access Kelly's Turn On Training here. Psychiatric medications only make you worse. A Yale study found that 1 in 23 people prescribed an antidepressant go on to be diagnosed with bipolar disorder, and the field calls that "unmasking" rather than causation. I trained as one of the first 300 reproductive psychiatrists in the world, and I stopped writing prescriptions in 2010 after research on long-term outcomes reframed everything I'd been taught about efficacy and safety. The recent Lindsay Clancy case pulled me back into activist territory after years of stepping away from it. This episode is my attempt to say what I thought I'd already said loudly enough. There's literature on treatment-emergent violence to self and others that most prescribers have never read. There's a phenomenon called tardive dysphoria. There's David Healy's work on stable volunteers becoming acutely suicidal after exposure to psychotropics. If you've ever considered a psychiatric medication to get through a hard chapter, or if you love someone who has, this is the fuller picture I wish more people had access to before the prescription pad comes out.

Is it possible to have a relationship with a narcissist? That question kicks off this episode, and the answer sits far outside the usual "set boundaries and move on" advice. Boundaries aren't a personality trait. They're a container. Sometimes they mean blocking a number. Sometimes they mean a full blackout from your family of origin so you can step out of the trauma field long enough to hear yourself. The relationship with your mother matters more than almost any other work you'll do. She's the anima imprint you project onto every woman, every doctor, every system of care. Resentment toward her chokes off creativity, vitality, and erotic energy in ways most women never trace back to the source. Family constellation work changed my life on this exact issue, and I explain why I recommend it before any deeper trauma modality. Compassion, neutrality, and even harmony are on the table. None of it requires her to become the mother she couldn't be. You’ll learn: [0:00] Introduction [2:10] Having a real relationship with a textbook narcissist while still keeping boundaries [4:07] Why your mother owes you nothing, and how loosening that expectation frees you [6:07] Family constellation is the low-hanging fruit with no downside 👉🏻 Want to start a podcast like this one?

Number 4: 176: Why Women Were Trained to Suppress Their Eroticism | Regena Thomashauer

Drop a "my blast" comment sharing something you're excited about, proud of, or loving about yourself, for a chance to win a free Beauty Backroom Peptide Perfecting Complex Face Serum or Moisturizer, gifted weekly! The day Mama Gena’s life was designed to collapse was the same day she chose to turn herself on instead. Regena Thomashauer, known to most as Mama Gena, is the founder of the School of Womanly Arts and the author of five books, including the New York Times bestseller Pussy: A Reclamation. Her new book, On Our Knees, is the reason we had this conversation. I have followed her work for years, and reading this book felt like being caught up on decades of her life in a single sitting. Our paths could not look more different on paper. Mine ran through psychiatric wards in New York with suicidal women coming off medications. Hers ran through living rooms filled with women in sequins and feathers. The conclusion we both landed on about what a woman's life is actually for turned out to be identical. This conversation is about aliveness as a discipline. It is about what a woman does when she gets sued, taxed, divorced, and asked to deliver a career-defining event in the same 24 hours. Mama Gena calls the practice volitional heat. If you have been told you are too much, this one is for you. You’ll learn: [0:00] Introduction [7:17] A woman alive is the most dangerous force on this plane [12:10] The permission field women grant each other in the dark [14:13] Turn-on as a choice and the responsibility of volitional heat [21:22] Getting sued the day her whole company hinged on one event [23:23] Walking through the “On Our Knees Move” live on the podcast [30:34] How pleasure floods the body with oxytocin and dopamine [34:28] The regrettable impulse and loving your story unconditionally [46:45] Why women celebrate bad news instead of their radiance 👉🏻 Want to start a podcast like this one?

Number 5: 177: How to End Generational Trauma in 30 Minutes | Mark Wolynn
Save your seat for Kelly's Turn on Training here. Access Kelly's Beauty Backroom event here. If you've done years of inner work and still feel stuck in the same patterns, you probably inherited your trauma. Mark is the director of The Family Constellation Institute and the author of It Didn't Start with You, a book that has sold more than three million copies and reframed how we think about depression, anxiety, and chronic illness that seem to come out of nowhere. I've been a family constellation zealot for years, and this conversation gets at the thing I've struggled to explain to people who assume this work is magical thinking. Mark walks through the actual mechanics of how a grandmother's car accident can show up as a granddaughter's self-injury decades later, and why conventional psychiatry keeps missing it. We talk about the Harvard Mastery of Stress study, the three unconscious ways we reproduce a broken bond with a parent, and the specific milestones (marriage, pregnancy, moving, rejection) that tend to trigger inherited patterns. If you've ever wondered whether a fear, a symptom, or a relationship pattern is actually yours, this is the episode that gives you a way to tell. Mark also shares why he rewrote his book after all these years, and what he's found about attachment breaks that changed how he works with almost everyone who walks in his door. You’ll learn: [0:00] Introduction [7:21] The self-injurer whose cutting traced back to her grandmother's guilt [15:02] How family constellations differ from psychodrama [19:43] Whether anyone can stand as a representative in the field [27:21] Three unconscious ways rejecting a parent shapes a life [31:44] Telling inherited trauma apart from attachment trauma [40:24] Reading the breadcrumb trail when the family history is lost [45:58] Why 85 percent of his work turns out to be attachment [54:44] Symptoms as the doorway and the meaning behind incarnation 👉🏻 Want to start a podcast like this one?
