    Reclaiming Self-Acceptance

    Hi there! Welcome to season six of RECLAIM. I am kicking off this season with an exploration of acceptance and self-acceptance. We often hear that this is a core tenet of happiness, to be able to accept ourselves and accept life as it is. But how? And why? In this episode I break down different ideas surrounding acceptance so you can figure out how to best support yourself navigate the ways we struggle with ourselves and with life.

    When Things Come To An End, What Falls Apart

    When Things Come To An End, What Falls Apart

    In this episode I want to start to open a conversation with you all about what may get stirred up for us when we know that something is coming to an end. What does it mean for us when we know an ending is coming? And what may we learn about ourselves as we try to navigate endings differently?

    Can You Be Too Smart For Therapy?

    Can You Be Too Smart For Therapy?

    In this episode I want to explore this idea of being too smart or too self-aware to make use of therapy. What may be going on for us when we find ourselves grappling with this? And what happens when we understand someone so deeply we struggle to have feelings about it? It seems it’s time to dig into the concept of intellectualization.

    Ep. 204 Why Gratitude Can Be So Hard and What To Do About It

    Ep. 204 Why Gratitude Can Be So Hard and What To Do About It

    As we enter the new year, we may have recommitted to our gratitude practices. It makes sense that if we want to cultivate more gratitude, then it starts with making more time to get in touch with what we are grateful for. But I have different thoughts on ways to cultivate more gratitude in our lives that goes beyond lists. Enjoy!

Comfort food (for the soul) in a podcast.

This podcast is the best self-help podcast I have ever come across. Thais is so knowledgeable, experienced, and skilled, and so real, so balanced, so kind. Somehow, there’s a fitting episode for every experience and state of mind I’ve ever wanted to address, and she anticipates every question or worry and answers them all. It’s not therapy because it cannot be, but it’s as close as a podcast can be (and sometimes I even feel that Thais hears and sees me better than my therapist does). Now that I know that this podcast exists, I can’t go back; there is truly nothing like it, and no one like Thais.
