In this episode of Getting Open, Andrea Miller sits down with Alegra Kastens for an honest conversation about intuition, healing, and learning to trust yourself — especially when anxiety and OCD are part of the picture. Alegra opens up about how OCD shows up in everyday life, the difference between intuition and intrusive thoughts, and what it takes to break old emotional patterns without bypassing fear. This episode explores self-trust, mental health, and finding alignment even when your mind feels loud.
