Stop Stressing Me Out

Today on the podcast I'm joined by mental health advocate, incredible mama, influencer, blogger and now podcaster... Jessyka Hagen. You may know Jess from @spilledmylk where she helps others feel less alone in their meltdowns and the community she's created is incredible.

In this episode, Jessyka and I talk about what it's like living with OCD, her lessons from marriage counselling, navigating the impact of social media on her mental health and much more.

Making real connections and friendships as an adult is much harder than when we were on the playground. Then you add in physical distancing, the constraints of a pandemic and adulting in general, and it's a wonder we have time for friendship. That's why I wanted to bring Jessica Painter, the founder of In Her Circle to the mic this week to talk about what it takes to make real connections, both in person and virtually. If you've ever moved to a new city, started a new job, or a new phase of life and felt lonely, this one is for you.

Geri shares her own story of poor gut health, how she healed herself, how we can care for our guts on a budget (and avoid my dreaded fermented foods!), the role that stress plays in our gut health and more.
