This therapy theme of the week in Jaime's session is how ego and self-sabotage can either be your motivator or stand in your way of progress. This may come up at work, school, or even in relationships.

Ego comes off as confidence or arrogance. Self-sabotage looks like fear or not trying. Angee & Jaime share ways they recognize these traits and how to use them for growth. 

Angee's mug: your ego is not your amigo

Jaime's mug: little old lady with pink hair with caption "I just don't have time to have the nervous breakdown that I deserve" with a bottle of chill pills next to her.

Cathy Lucas is our bad*ss guest who shares her resiliency story of being a child bride, teen mother, and now advocate for children trapped in this cycle of abuse.

This episode was recorded a month before Vermont became the 8th state to raise the legal age of marriage to 18, so that is at least one positive error in this episode.

Cathy works with The Resiliency Foundation. The mission: To end child marriage and exploitation through research, education, and advocacy. Learn more: https://resiliencyfoundation.com

-Child marriage is legal in *42* states

-Child marriage is when one or both parties in the marriage are below the age of 18.

-It is estimated 300,000 children were married in the United States between 2000 and 2018, the vast majority of whom were girls married to older men.

-In most states, child marriage is a legal loophole to statutory rape, so it legally allows an adult to engage in sexual activity with children.

Do you struggle saying "no"?

Or do you give, give, give and feel like the favor is never returned?

Maybe you've met an Energy Vampire or even worse, YOU are the Energy Vampire!

This episode dives into how to maintain and strengthen your relationships, whether friendships, partners, or family members with boundaries! Boundary setting is always confusing, especially with loved ones. Then it's confusing to know if we should lower our expectations or strengthen our boundaries. We give examples and ways that we have navigated setting and maintaining boundaries in our friendships and relationships. We maybe even secretly talked about actual/hypothetical energy vampires in our own lives and how we had to implement boundaries too! 

Angee's mug: Be brave with your life

Who doesn’t have anxiety nowadays?

Who has a BFRB (Body-focused Repetitive Behaviors)?

We discuss how anxiety looks for friends, clients, and each of us. Angee’s anxiety is wrapped around her ADHD. Jaime’s anxiety is wrapped around her BFRBs. Each of us share personal experiences of the emotions, internal beliefs, and shame spiral in each of these diagnoses.

We throw at you ways to practice mindfulness or being in the moment or finding a neutral place with you emotions, rather than the shame spiral that is a familiar ride. Try them out and DM us feedback!

Body-focused repetitive behaviors (BFRBs) include any repetitive behavior that involves biting, pulling, picking, or scraping your own hair, skin, lips, cheeks, or nails that can lead to physical damage to the body and have been met with multiple attempts to stop or decrease the behavior.

For more info: TLC Foundation for Body-Focused Repetitive Behaviors (bfrb.org)

A listener DM’d asking Angee & Jaime how they came to their spiritual identities or beliefs. So they get this entire episode to hear our response. ;)

Angee & Jaime share how their childhood religions, along with bumping into the idea of reincarnation shaped them to be inquisitive adults, open to explore other options to explain where we come from or the always unanswered question: What happens when we die? Where does our soul go?

Jaime shares about using past life regression as not only a service offered in her private practice, but in better understanding and self-reflecting for this lifetime. Angee shares about how she uses journeying for her own (or if others request) questions to be answered. We barely touched on astrology, but that will likely be another happy hour, another day.

Winner from Episode 31’s secret word contest is revealed!! Listen to learn if you are the lucky winner of a mug from The Shrink Show.

Angee’s mug: a unicorn on a rainbow saying, “I don’t believe in humans!”
